Trump’s Melting State Fair Hit With Fresh Humiliation
With only three days until the holiday, the administration is struggling to generate good buzz for the occasion.

When Donald Trump once again backed down from a threatened military escalation against Tehran,
he offered fresh fodder to the narrative Iranian officials are eager to promote:
They are not the ones who fear war
— Mr. Trump is.
Iran’s leadership believes it has found the world’s Achilles’ heel.
With the help of regional militia allies, Tehran spent the past week underscoring
its ability to threaten several of the world’s most critical energy facilities and …

For Iran, Trump’s Reversal on Escalation Shows Who Has the Upper Hand
By expanding the arena of fighting in the region, experts say, Tehran sent a warning about the dangers of a widening war.

Chickpea Salad With Fresh Herbs and Scallions Recipe • 5★ (Gift Recipe)
A lighter, easier take on classic American potato salad, this version uses canned chickpeas in place of potatoes and favors Greek yogurt over mayonnaise. The trick to achieving the creamy texture of traditional potato salad is to mash some of the chickpeas lightly with a fork. It travels well, so it deserves a spot at your next picnic or desk lunch.

The high concentration of CO2 problem is yet another reason you always want air conditioning available.
It allows you to still get fresh air into buildings regularly (through occasional opening of windows), even when it's hot outside.
"Central air" systems especially are also designed to gently circulate air throughout a space, keeping the time you need to open windows relatively short and overall energy loss low.

Yesterday we did our weekly errands again with our bicycle trolley. Works like a charm.
We select routes off major roads, have some chat along the way, see what's going on in town, physical exercise, fresh air, no fuel cost, no traffic jam.
And even car drivers are very friendly to us as well.

So as I've been droning on about, I'm doing lots of painting in the house. Next is the dining room. I have to live with the wood chip wallpaper but it's currently clinical white. I was all set to go with a sage tone to complement the fabulous orange dining chairs but I'm now leaning towards a fresh lemony colour as it's such a light sunny room. Current light is very Mum, a crystal drop arrangement which will be going. Instead I am totally in love with these.

Evaluation-Recording Contamination in Learned Nano-Quadrotor Dynamics: A Fresh-Seed Audit
David Shulman
https://arxiv.org/abs/2607.18482 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2607.18482 https://arxiv.org/html/2607.18482
arXiv:2607.18482v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Learned flight-dynamics models are often trained on short windows extracted from longer recordings. Randomly splitting these windows can place dependent samples from the same physical flight in both training and evaluation sets. We audit this issue using a fixed snapshot of the NanoBench Crazyflie 2.1 dataset. The experiment holds evaluation flights, rollout starts, training-window count, validation data, and optimization budget fixed. In the contaminated protocol, [LeakagePercent] percent of a recording-disjoint training set is replaced with windows from evaluation recordings, while both arms use the same clean validation set. We compare a world-coordinate delta multilayer perceptron with a relative-coordinate control across [NumSeeds] fresh training seeds and [NumEvalFlights] complete evaluation recordings. The primary endpoint is failure-aware position RMSE over 1-second rollouts, analyzed with paired crossed recording-by-seed inference. Contamination lowers apparent world-model error by 12.1 percent, from 0.299 m to 0.262 m, but the predeclared 95 percent confidence interval for contaminated minus disjoint error is -0.0735 to 0.0011 m. Because the interval crosses zero, the confirmatory result is negative. Secondary horizons and the relative-coordinate model show similar trends, but no coordinate-representation interaction is supported. Reliable leakage assessment therefore requires recording-level splits, failure-aware rollouts, replication across fresh seeds, and inference over both recordings and optimization seeds.
