Hmm.. Since there are no photos of the man's face all over the internet gossip -specially George Takei's social media feed- sites, I'm going to assume he's a Scandinavian Amish?

One of the problems they are going to have getting the power going again in Puerto Rico is that some power plants are going to have to do what they call a "black start". Power plants require power to operate pumps, fans, stokers, valves, control systems, etc. Normally when a plant is started cold, it is already connected to the grid and can draw power from it to start systems. But Puerto Rico is completely dark.

The usual tactic on the continent is to use a hydro plant as the "bootstrap" power source, because hydro plants are easy to black start (all you need is enough juice to open a few valves and provide some current to a generator's field coils). But Puerto Rico doesn't have any hydro. They are going to have to bring in sets of generators with fuel: a set of small generators to start a set of bigger generators to start a set of bigger generators to start the power plant. It's a complicated operation.

Meanwhile, in Britain...

Sayeth the head teacher at the Shirley Manor Primary Academy in West Yorkshire: "We have written to parents to let them know how we want to work together from this term to ensure their children eat a balanced meal."

Translation: "We will confiscate any food we deem unacceptable."

Well, we can't have any of the little tykes enjoying themselves without our approval, can we?

Reality Winner says she smuggled classified documents out of the NSA in her panty hose.

Sandy Berger, Bill Clinton's former National Security Advisor, smuggled classified documents out of the National archives in his pants. And, here you though only Hillary was the only Clinton whose people played fast and loose with national secrets.

Perhaps using the honor system isn't the best way to guard classified documents.

On the other hand, we have the TSA searching Granny's diapers for explosives. Maybe the NSA should take a lesson from the TSA.

They lag Floyd by ~38 years: "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat? Wrong! Do it again!"

It's a complicated operation.

I imagine so.

That said, there are two LHDs and an LSD nearby. So long as one power plant is relatively close to the shore, they should be able power them up.

But that's the easy part, if it is possible. Here's a list of power plants. Some are solar/wind renewables, so that could be useful.

News from Lilliput:

The struggle between Big-Enders and Little-Enders continues apace.

Now with more death penalty!

To be fair Sixclaws, its France, they've spent decade refusing to extradite a man who admitted in open court to drugging a 13 year old and raping her unconscious body

Hey Patrick, whats you opinion on Old RPM Daddy's link?

I mean we know your opinion, Your indignantly harrumphing that the government has no right to tell you what you can put in your body doesn't change the fact that, yes, they do have that right.

But would you care to repeat it on school employees stealing children's food

I presumed this was about competing architectures from Intel & Motorola, a battle loss by which Apple was inexplicably unscathed.

If you're thinking of Roman Polanski, lujlp, he's in Switzerland, and they did decline to extradite this pervert, maybe because it wasn't "RAPE rape", according to sex crime expert Whoopie Goldberg. #BoycottHollywood

"about competing architectures"

The tech world can be pretty rough but - the death penalty? Maybe the world of Rollerball isn't that far off after all.

“Our team visited the beach yesterday and upon seeing the devastation we believe at this time those dogs have perished. We have rescued three dogs since the hurricane – all dumped during the storm. One is heavily pregnant and was with a small puppy.”

She was told by a security guard for the hotel at the beach that the dogs “were screaming in terror.”
