Accident, My Foot.
How do you say “oops” in Russian?
U.S. Presidential candidate and long-time Vladimir Putin admirer Donald Trump appeared on Russian state TV to claim that the Kremlin “probably” isn’t messing with America’s election — but the Republican’s camp says it was all an accident.

You can't just go and replace generals when you feel like it, @realDonaldTrump. They're not campaign managers. Or wives. - John Fugelsang

A Day In The Life Or Why I Didn't Post An Edition Yesterday

A week ago today my friend's 10 lb. dog was run over by a motorcycle. Luckily I had the use of a vehicle and was able to tote Wuni to the veterinarian. Over the course of the next few days, Wuni had to return for a checkup and later an open infection. He is doing great now. He's an amazing little pup.

On Tuesday my friend's thumb and arm became swollen. On Wednesday she worsened and went to the local clinic and was given antibiotics.

On Thursday she was worse with pain shooting up to her shoulder and the swelling increased. I knew she needed to go to Nicoya Hospital -- about a 90 minute ride -- she needed a strong antibiotic that the local clinic did not have on hand.

So off we went at 9am to Nicoya. She was out of the hospital at 11am. She had a pain shot and a super antibiotic shot and a prescription.

We stopped for Chinese food, of course, as Chinese restaurants rarely disappoint. We were both starved.

At lunch, we began talking about how she could've contacted such an aggressive infection and she determined it must have been from cleaning Wuni's infection. Sigh.

I arrived home around 3pm to the usual afternoon rainstorm and Internet Interruptus. My dog Luna was soo happy to see me -- Wuni is her best friend.

Amidst all the flurry of the week, the drive was stunning. Every possible shade of green was present and the sky was blue with wispy puffy clouds. It was one long rainforest road populated with monkeys, reptiles and horses.

Tomorrow is my 67th birthday. In dog years I am 9 1/2.

Thank you for visiting and keeping me and AHNC alive.

Pura Vida.

Were there ever to be a canonized checklist of Americana, the very last breakfast rush at New England’s very last Howard Johnson’s on Tuesday covered most of the bases.

AHNC viewers are so much smarter than moi!

Lisa,
No, that is not a view from the Juno spacecraft. Your first clue is the lack of a night side on Jupiter and no terminator. Also there being no distortion of the Red Spot and the atmospheric bands along the far sides of a sphere. This view is simply not possible from a single vantage point.

This is actually a computer generated composite of multiple images from the Cassini spacecraft as it passed Jupiter in 2000 on its way to Saturn. Look for the same image on the NASA pages. Still an incredible sight.

I love your site and visit it religiously. Keep up the good work! (Don't really mean to be a Debbie Downer but I just couldn't let this one pass by unchallenged.)

Thanks for all you do! Oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
