It's only been a year. Too soon man.

When he's properly aged they can have a Bichon Fricasee

Good observation concerning parenting today.
I hope this gets passed around a lot. I agree with every sentence she wrote.

I'm pretty sure it's Thai poodle noodles.

Maybe with a side of Pawed Thai.

Low res. Can't see.

 

[Hewson]

So the question is are the Asian flags intentionally wrong to try and be humorous or did the Canadian who made this not know which flags were which?

Oroville Dam situation. Anybody in the NorCal Central Valley Sacramento stay safe. What's the scene? This could make the Johnstown flood look like a diaper leak.

 

[trojanchick99]

The dam itself is OK, it's the spillway that is the issue, which is still a big freaking issue. The water level has peaked, so the greatest danger has passed for the time being. Right now, they are trying to fix it for when the waters rise again.

 

[Oregoropa]

I saw the erosion underneath the emergency spillway. Looked scary as shit. Almost as if it would fail deep down.

As an amateur astronomer and astrophotographer who loves anything to do with space science, NASA etc, this has me very excited. I know it will probably not be hey we found ET but it appears like it will be a pretty big announcement so I can't wait to see what they found!
Nasa to host major press conference on 'discovery beyond our solar system

 

[DaveC]

thanks for the heads up, i love this kind of stuff and will be watching

1 pm eastern tomorrow (wednesday), in case anyone's wondering - the article doesn't mention the time for some weird reason. there is also an AMA on reddit at 3 pm with the scientists.

Yep I saw this yesterday in another article that had the time but not the date lol. So for some reason I thought it was today so I eagerly went on my break at 10am my time (1 pm EST) and saw absolutely nothing only to figure out it was on Wednesday duh... But yes this always amazes me how far we've come in the search for exo-planets. I remember in the 90's subscribing to both astronomy and sky and telescope magazines and reading about the discovery of the first exoplanet and what a huge deal that was. Ofcourse no internet at my house back then so I got all my Astro news from these magazines. Now 20 years later and we have discovered over 2k planets and a few that may be earth like! So cool and crazy. Wonder what the next 20 years will bring in the world of space sciences. I'll sure be tuned in tomorrow too!

 

[LuckyNumber7]

Judging the folks involved, it looks like it'll be an *even closer* earth-like exoplanet.

Yeah most likely this. I don't expect more than that or like I said that they found life since the distances involved would make it impossible unless we send a probe there (also impossible with today's technology). The only other very very remote possibility (although I think winning the lotto is more possible) is that they picked up a signal from a known exo planet through seti but 99.999% is that they discovered a very earth like planet that could very well have life but we will never know until we can find a way to get there. This is not to say that there will not be some very exciting news! I can't wait!
