NEWARK — Days after immigration officials announced the death of a detainee at Newark migrant jail Delaney Hall, Rep. LaMonica McIver visited the facility for the first time since prosecutors allege she assaulted federal agents there during a melee in May.

Welp, after a day or two of fermentation and a few hours preparing the accompaniments, like the potato filling, the 'gunpowder' to sprinkle over it, and both tomato and coconut chutneys (all made from scratch, even involving cracking a fresh coconut!), I've made my first ever dosas. I'm quite chuffed by the result. It's a lot of work for a one-off...

Thinking about giving to folk in #Gaza; quite complicated feelings. Firstly, we do *have* to give, and give personally, because conventional charities are not effectively getting relief to Gaza -- presumably because they are being blocked by #Israel -- and because our governments are doing nothing.
Bu…

Frankly, this is moot since the current administration already has the data and will ignore the court order. Its overly-broad seizure was intentional.

Judge Blocks Government From Reviewing Seized Washington Post Devices
The Post, in its first legal filing since the government searched the home of a reporter last week, had demanded the return of the seized materials.

The mechanics sorted out filling the adblue tank.
The warnings have stopped beeping and the 10 l bottle that was in the back is gone, so presumably I can trust it's in the tank now.
Sounds like much of what I have paid for was for them doing what I did: Looking all around the car for an ad-blue tank hole and taking things apart trying to find it.
But none of that is the correct solution, which is to put it up on the ramp and clamber underneath to find the tank which has some sort of lowering mechanism, to then lower it and fill it and raise it again.
Not a job for me then. Next time it'll maybe be cheaper coz of them knowing what to do now and not spending half a day trying to figure it out.
Apparently there is a second emissions reduction mechanism which doesn't take a wattery bottle of urea, but instead needs a pouch of oily tar stuff.
This is more likely to empty and need replacing next, rather than the piss bottle.
And even for normal cars that haven't been screwed up for wheelchair access this is a mechanics job anyway. And the garage will have to order in the tar pouch especially.
Back in the 90s, my first car cost about 200 quid. Today I paid 200 quid to get someone to fill it up with purified piss for emissions reduction. Oh how things change. 😆

A total of six medium sized tourtiere and three baking. First three are cooling down. Meat filling is a combination of mom's and father in law recipes. House smelling like when mom baked. All crusts are home-made.

In a groundhog day loop of explaining why this hierarchical model cannot effectively be represented in the unified flat format they're trying to push. You can absolutely represent it in a flattened way, but it requires breaking out the child components into their own collection.
We end, once again, with the telling pause of disinterest and multitasking, followed by a distracted "mmm hmm" and promises to circle back on it later.

Iceland Air flights ICE43E, ICE615, and ICE623 are flying over southern Quebec (almost to Vermont) right now. They took off from KEF within 4 minutes of each other, and it looks (from the tracker) like they're flying in a formation of sorts.
(They have different destinations.)
I've never noticed this before. Seems weird.
(I first noticed on my radio-powered ADS-B tracker, but they're on FlightRadar24 etc.)
