Contours mark the edge of the region where the eclipse will be visible at the times when the Moon enters or leaves the umbra (the part of the Earth's shadow where the Sun is completely hidden) and penumbra (the part where the Sun is only partially blocked). This map shows where the lunar eclipse is visible. Our atmosphere filters the light as it passes, softening the edge of our planet’s shadow and giving the Moon a deep, rosy glow. During this alignment, Earth blocks some of the Sun’s light from reaching the full moon. What is a lunar eclipse?Ī lunar eclipse takes place when the Sun and Moon occupy precise positions on opposite sides of Earth. When the Moon is at or near its closest point to Earth at the same time as it is full, it is called a “ supermoon.” During this event, because the full moon is a little bit closer to us than usual, it appears especially large and bright in the sky. Each month, the Moon passes through perigee (the point closest to Earth) and apogee (the point farthest from Earth). The Moon travels around our planet in an elliptical orbit, or an elongated circle. In other words, on May 26, 2021, the full moon will enter Earth’s shadow - and, when the Moon is not in our planet’s shade, it will appear even bigger and brighter than usual.

The entire point of the Challenger is to encourage a little bad behavior. I started taking different routes lest the nearest other neighbors (who didn't get invited) get annoyed. Pretty soon everyone had piled in for at least a loop around our backwoods roads-sometimes twice. Teenage boys and girls and their parents. Four passengers at a time, like a traveling carnival. I brought over the car in all its Plum Crazy arraignment-the loudest purple you've ever seen-and gave rides. My neighbor's son just turned 16, and he was having his birthday party. Later, in front of my wife, he said, "Dad, let's do another smoky burnout!" But shouldn't every little one learn a bit about rebellion inside a Challenger? First thing I did was take out my 3-and-a-half-year old son in his car seat. It is a bad 1970s detective TV show, walrus mustaches and all, writ into metal.Īnd while the size might work against it on a racetrack, in the real world you can stuff four or even five people into it. It is the realization that being in polite society often means bending, if just a little, in most situations. It is refusing to check your work e-mail after 5:30. It is telling your mom that's she's being annoying when she actually is. Being a few minutes late and not apologizing for it. Here's what the Challenger is: Cheating on your taxes (a little). The Challenger doesn't ride on rails, the car doesn't shrink around you the faster you go, and it doesn't feel all that planted. Tip-in most often results in the hood tipping upwards, and the philosophy is that traction is not a thing to be managed, but to be overcome. Try to manage the car over a technical off-camber turn, and it wallows like a drunken harbor seal. ![]() One doubts that the word "lightening" has ever been applied to the car, and its suspension, though improved with the Scat Pack's performance version, is workaday.

Quote from Psychology Today round-up, "What's After This?": 30 Quotes on the Afterlife, Stephanie A. The dissolution of our time-bound form in eternity brings no loss of meaning. What happens after death is so unspeakably glorious that our imagination and our feelings do not suffice to form even an approximate conception of it. The great psychologist from the late 1800s-1900s was interested in mediumship and metaphysics, and evolved philosophical and psychological thought forever. You are just the same, an immortal soul, a child of God. Similarly, when you give up this bodily dress at death you do not change. Yet because of this you would not say that you have changed.

I highlighted a lot of amusing or interesting passages on my Kindle, I will have to come back and add some of them in. In the 20s, apparently the kids DIDN'T rule the house. ![]() There is a section on teaching children manners that should be read and implemented by many parents today. Especially which family owned the country house with bowling alley, ballroom, and indoor pool! Post uses fake names of socialites throughout to illustrate different concepts, but I suspect they are based on real socialites and I sure would like to figure out who was who. Even though I'd probably have been unable to remember all the different scenarios and what to do in each. It's a truly fascinating look at high society in NYC in the 20s, and I can't get enough of it. This book covers all that, plus weddings, mourning, business, traveling, social clubs, meeting royalty, and more. And you have to manage all these lists without Excel! (But you can hire a personal secretary on a part-time basis). Don't even get me started on your country house. But you wouldn't invite someone to a dinner or supper party who was not part of your main list. Different dress, different food, different service, different etiquette. And the list has subsets: you'd invite everyone on it to a ball, but you have a separate list for those you'd invite to a dinner party, and another for those you'd invite to a supper party, and yes, those are different events. Sometimes you may actually visit with them, sometimes you just leave the card with the butler. One day a week, you go to these peoples' houses and leave a card with your name on it, except that you can't go two weeks in a row because they have to leave a card at your house before you can go back to theirs. This is your social life: you have a list of people who are your friends or acquaintances. ![]() Imagine, it's 1922 in NYC and surrounding areas (the author's typical focus, she advises people in other areas to follow local customs). I read the Kindle version of the first edition, published in 1922. The Chinese sage, Confucius, could not tolerate the suggestion that virtue is in itself enough without politeness, for he viewed them as inseparable and "saw courtesies as coming from the heart," maintaining that "when they are practised with all the heart, a moral elevation ensues." Consequently, the kinship between conduct that keeps us within the law and conduct that makes civilized life worthy to be called such, deserves to be noted with emphasis. On the other hand, the blunt, unpolished hero of melodrama and romantic fiction has lifted brusqueness and pushfulness to a pedestal not wholly merited. The polished gentleman of sentimental fiction has so long served as the type of smooth and conscienceless depravity that urbanity of demeanor inspires distrust in ruder minds. There is no intention in this remark to intimate that there is any higher rule of life than the Ten Commandments only it is illuminating as showing the relationship between manners and morals, which is too often overlooked. Though it may require ingenuity to reconcile their actions with the Decalogue-the ingenuity is always forthcoming. But the Commandments do not always prevent such virtuous scoffers from dealings with their neighbor of which no gentleman could be capable and retain his claim to the title. Many who scoff at a book of etiquette would be shocked to hear the least expression of levity touching the Ten Commandments. There is a convenient, active table of contents, and this work has been formatted for your Kindle. This edition is illustrated and annotated, with detailed information about Emily Post and also the Emily Post Institute. 2/18/2024 0 Comments Golden dragon dim sumThe establishment is clean and spacious, the servers are attentive and terribly friendly. On Sunday, there is a dim sum lunch offering 20% off (as of this review, October 24, 2019). My order was really too much for one person but I couldn't help myself. I think I filled my own teacup only once, so attentive were the servers. Siu mai were perfect little drums of minced pork, water chestnut and ginger, perfect with a dip into soy and then sriracha. Har gow wrappers were perfectly steamed, not too sticky and a gorgeous translucent white, stuffed with shrimp. They were so light you could pull them apart with chopsticks. Every item was cooked to order - I was even advised to order the egg custard dun tat just after I sat down because it is put into the oven to bake as soon as the order comes in!

Beginning in the mid-to-late 1980s light rail was studied but nothing was done. Ramp metering that allowed buses to bypass the delay was brought to the corridor in 1974. The I-35W corridor has a long history of transit, being the first freeway in the Twin Cities to have express bus service, starting in 1968. Route įurther information on the freeway corridor: I-35W (Minnesota) The Heart of the City station is located near Minnesota State Highway 13 and the Burnsville Transit Station. The route crosses the Minnesota River and enters Burnsville to serve the final pair of stops in a loop. The route re-enters I-35W for a short distance before again exiting at 98th St to serve the South Bloomington Transit Center and park and ride. The transit-only Knox Avenue transitway travels underneath I-494 to the American Blvd station located near Southtown Center and the Penn-American district in Bloomington. The route travels off the freeway to serve stations and a park and ride at Knox Ave and 76th St near the Best Buy Richfield headquarters. After passing Minnesota State Highway 62, buses exit the freeway to serve stops at 66th St before rentering the freeway. While traveling along the MnPASS lanes, the route serves two stops located in the center of the highway at Lake St and 46th St. From downtown, buses connect directly to the I-35W MnPASS lanes on a ramp constructed for only transit vehicles that will serve 700 weekday bus trips. The Marq2 transit corridor serves 80 percent of express bus trips to downtown Minneapolis from regional park and ride facilities. The two streets were redesigned for transit improvements in 2009 as part of an Urban Partnership Agreement that brought contraflow bus lanes to the streets. ![]() The first four stops at 3rd St, 5th St, 7th St, and 11th St are on paired one-way streets, Marquette Ave and 2nd Ave. The Orange Line's northern terminus is a pair of stops at 3rd St in downtown Minneapolis. Route description A view from the Lake St. By 2040, an estimated 11,400 rides a day will be taken on the Orange Line and facility improvements along the corridor funded as part of the project will benefit 26,500 rides a day. Construction was completed in 2021 and the line opened December 4, 2021. ![]() Full funding for the project was secured in 2018. Identifying funds to improve the transitway was difficult despite the project drawing bipartisan support. The project was known as the I-35W Bus Rapid Transitway until July 2011 when the Metropolitan Council officially renamed the project the METRO Orange Line as part of the branding of the METRO system. Bus rapid transit was identified for study in the early 2000s and several transit facility improvements in the corridor were made by 2009 through grants by the federal government. The line has features typical of bus rapid transit systems with off-board fare payment, articulated buses with extra doors, stations with improved passenger amenities, and transit-only bus lanes on portions of the route.Įxpress bus service in the I-35W corridor has existed since the 1970s and efforts to improve transit in the corridor through light rail or bus rapid transit have been worked on for nearly as long. The route serves a mix of stations located in the center of the highway, stations near highway exits, and on-street stations. The Orange Line provides access to 198,000 jobs with roughly a quarter of them outside downtown Minneapolis. The line operates primarily along Interstate 35W from downtown Minneapolis through Richfield and Bloomington before terminating in Burnsville, Minnesota. The Metro Orange Line is a bus rapid transit line in the Twin Cities, Minnesota operated by Metro Transit. 2/17/2024 0 Comments Simple minimalist living![]() Saving time is a major part of minimalism.

Years later, I now can firmly say that becoming a minimalist family was one of the best decisions we ever made. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” But just as Nelson Mandela famously said, Some days it felt like I would never be done and that my home would always be cluttered. Trust me, as a former emotional hoarder who had to declutter 30 years of stuff, I know how tough it can be to conquer the clutter.Īfter all, I have two curious and very active boys and a husband that was always working and never around to help, so it felt like I was constantly fighting a battle against mess and stress – a LOSING battle!
