2023.06.07 09:58 cupcake1927 Need help find this movie!
Hi! Need help finding a movie I watched a couple years ago, don’t remember the title/characters. I vaguely remember a girl getting kidnapped, dude was drugging (or something like that) her so she’s forget but she wrote whatever happened in a book so she wouldn’t forget. I think the kidnapper might’ve also taken her to an island or something surrounded by water.
Not much to go on 😅 Thanks!

2023.06.07 09:56 deflatedballon92 MIL screamed at me in front of our friends
For context this was before the NC. Also sorry for the long post
Summer of 2018. No covid. No restrictions etc. We decided to host a bbq for our friends and decided to do it on a Saturday. My DH invited his friends, I invited my bestie, her family ( kids included ) and a couple of other friends. My husband knew my bestie had a young child ( girl aged 2 with severe epilepsy, and numerous other issues ) so we set up the travel cot, brought down our baby monitors and had a kid friendly area in the shade for them. Hired a bouncy castle, set up a sweet station etc.
So basically we were all having a good time, having a drink, and entertaining our friends when mil rocked up and my husband went to the gate and told her she couldn't come in as we had company.
She had previously embarrassed him in front of his friends by appearing up one night I was doing a night shift, screaming at him how he's a fat waste of space, his friends don't like him they only pity him, he's simple, he's stupid, he is ugly etc etc
Anyway she came to our gate and demanded food. My husband told her no. She got on like an imbecile. She turned on the tears, shouting he doesn't love her, screaming at the top of her voice that my husbands friends only came because I was there and they are all having sex with me behind his back. So his best friend went to the gate, said something super quiet and she shut up. Next thing she tried to come in, and our gate is coded so we changed the code and she couldn't get in. She screamed again how we are a waste of space and then she said she was ringing her daughter to come down and "sort me out"
I told her don't bother ringing her and she's coming down anyway to bring my nephew down to play on the bouncy castle. She started screaming again about how her entire family have turned on her( my fault ) how noone talks to her ( my fault ) and how her eldest son came out as gay and she blames that on us. I simply explained he told us years ago he was gay, we met his fiancé, went to lunch, had them at our house etc and if it bothers you he is finally happy then check yourself.
She told my husband that I'm cheating on him with his best friend as she saw us in the car at mcdonalds one night. My husband calmly explained to her that he had picked me up from work as my husband was working late, he took me to mcdonalds to get some food, dropped me home and told me to text him when my hubby get home and that he would call up to give him some game as he left it in his house. She then said I was clearly just with my husband until someone better came along. I walked over and told her my husband is my dream guy. He has never lifted a hand, doesn't shout, supports me through my tough times, gets on amazingly with my family etc.
SHE THEN TOLD ME MY HUSBAND IS HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH MY MOTHER. I simply said well my mum is a good looking woman for 54 so fair fucks to him. This angered her even more as she said then turned it around and said I am nothing but a slut who shows my body to anyone who asks( this wad because I was standing in a bikini top, and shorts and my slippers( my house, I'm gonna be comfy ) and that is why my husband chose me as he knew I was easy. Considering I didn't sleep with my husband until 4 months into the relationship due to abuse from a previous relationship
This went on for about 2 hours in which time she was upsetting my friends kids. She left when my SIL came down and chased her away. Next day we had the rspca at our door due to abuse, starving him, restricting his water intake, and a million other things. The rspca came out, checked our dog, checked our garden etc. Said they didn't believe he was abused etc.
We do not see her at all now and she hates it. She lives in the street across from us. She rung my husbands work stating he was a drug user ( which my husbands boss asked him to do a drug test came back obviously clear ) contacted my employer saying I care for my FIL and I leave him in the house every single day, I hit him, I abuse him, I don't look after him etc. However I go over every day, tidy his house, make him a big batch of dinners and he simply defrost what he needs, lay out his tablets.
And MILs friends still ask why we are Nc

2023.06.07 09:48 Chunidle 3-Day Itinerary - Visiting Houston with GF for the first time this weekend
Hello Houston!
My GF and I (both 23) are international students here in the Midwest US, we just graduated and have been to other bigger cities in the country (Chicago, NYC, DC, etc.) But we decided to visit your wonderful city this weekend. We'll be there for about 3 and half days, not enough to explore everything Houston has to offer, but just enough to see the highlights of it. We'll be renting a car too since we heard that is Houston's best mode of transportation.
Our main goal for this trip is to spend some quality time together, exploring the city and relaxing, while not spending a large sum of money. I built a rough itinerary and wanted to get some feedback from you folks (the locals) if anything seems improper. Please let me know if there is anything that I have missed about Houston, and any recommendations on where to get food and what else to do!
Thank you!
We'll be staying at an Airbnb in midtown, near Buffalo Bayou Park. We also intentionally avoid the Aquarium because we heard it's pretty depressing.
Day 0.5 (THU) - We arrive in Houston at about 6 PM.
- POST (dinner) + Skylawn
Day 1 (FRI) - Baby Barnaby's (breakfast)
- Gerald D. Hines Waterfall
- Space Center
- Kemah Boardwalk
- Landry's Seafood House (dinner)
Day 2 (SAT) - Blacksmith (breakfast)
- The Galleria/River Oaks District
- Xin Chao (lunch)
- Museum of Natural Science
- Buffalo Bayou Park
- Nancy's Hustle (dinner)
Day 3 (SUN) - Chinatown
- Golden Dim Sum (brunch)
- Memorial Park
- Our last day in Houston ends around 5 PM
My GF also really like going to cafes, so we'll pick a couple of these to visit: - Blendin Coffee Club
- Tenfold
- Giant Leap
- Cavo Coffee
- La La Land Cafe

2023.06.07 09:42 Kitchen-Sundae8144 Looking for a travel buddy + Need help with a 10-day itinerary in August 2023
Hello everyone! I am planning a group+solo trip to Bali in mid-August, and I am looking for guidance on planning a cost-effective itinerary. We are a group of 7 people (3 couples and myself) and will be in Bali for ten days. We arrive in Bali on the 13th i.e. Sunday evening and will leave on the 24th i.e. Thursday morning. I wish to spend 3-4 days with the group and 6-7 days solo exploring the region.
Below is the first draft of the schedule
SUN 13 | GROUP | Sanur | The flight arrives at 7 PM. Purchase SIM |
MON 14 | SOLO | Nusa Lembongan | Take the morning ferry to Nusa Lembongan |
TUE 15 | SOLO | Nusa Ceningan | Go to Nusa Ceningan via the yellow bridge |
WED 16 | GROUP maybe | Nusa Penida | Explore west side |
THU 17 | GROUP | Nusa Penida | Explore the east side and take the ferry to Padang Bai or Gilly islands |
FRI 18 | GROUP maybe | Sideman OR Gilly Air + Gilly Meno | Explore |
SAT 19 | GROUP maybe | Sideman OR Gilly Trawangan | Explore |
SUN 20 | GROUP | Ubud | Vegetate |
MON 21 | GROUP | Ubud | Day trip to Amed and Lovina |
TUE 22 | SOLO | Ubud | Day trip Canggu/ Seminyak |
WED 23 | SOLO | Uluwatu/ Sanur | Explore |
THU 24 | GROUP | Uluwatu/ Sanur | Leave by 8 AM. The flight departs at 12 Noon |
Questions - I'm on a tight budget ($65/ day for stay+travel+food+activities, if any) so am on the fence about including Gilly Islands. However, given that I'm looking for a relaxed vibe and the fact that these islands encourage you to cycle and explore, I think I should visit them. Is it worth it?
- Alternatively, in a 10-day trip, does it make sense to include the Nusa Islands and Gilly Islands as well or should I pick either or none and simply explore the Bali mainland?
- On the first and last day, I'd like a place relatively closer to the airport which isn't busy (I hate crowds!) and hence have chosen Sanur. Are there better options?
- Since I hate crowds, is it worth making the day trip from Ubud to the busy region of Canggu/ Seminyak? Will avoid Kuta for sure.
- I heard that Ubud is getting crowded and hence chose Sidemen for visiting rice terraces and the temples in the region. But I'd still love to see Ubud and hence it's on the list. Any advice here or should stick to the plan?
- Does it make sense to head down south to Uluwatu and spend a day there or should I simply go back to Sanur as it might be relatively easier to get back to the airport?
Note on travel buddy M30 from India and this is my first international trip. I'd love a person who can accept that fact well and some reservations which might come with it(hate crowds or loud anything). I'm curious by nature and open-minded, enjoy being solo and the space+freedom that comes with this state. Can confidently ride a bike. Enjoy the water but can't swim confidently. Hence not interested in scuba diving, but would love to snorkel safely if possible. Not a
must-do but a
good-to-have on my list. Just here to explore Bali. Please do leave a message if you'd love to tag along and have some company.

2023.06.07 09:41 powerhouse_22 Good Piercing Shops in Brum
I recently moved to Birmingham, and I haven’t found any good shops yet. I’m a little scared to go to any other shop than the one in my hometown, as I’ve had bad experiences with dodgy shops. Are there any shops, hopefully close to Selly Oak or city centre, that have a good reputation and good quality of care?

2023.06.07 09:40 groundzer0s Wheelchair-friendly beach areas?
My dad was once a beach bum, playing guitar by a bonfire after a good motorcycle ride. He married my mom on Gleneden beach and asked me to scatter his ashes there when he dies. He really, really loves the coast.
But he's 68 now and is missing a leg. He is fresh out of an abusive marriage that kept him home-bound for nearly a decade, and for a solid 5 years of that, I kept my distance because of his wife. Now it's like I have my dad back, and I can finally start doing things with him again. There's a whole list of stuff I wanna take him out to do, like go see the Southern Pacific Daylight at the museum in Portland or go fishing just one more time at Minto Brown Island Park where I caught my first fish when I was around 6 or so. But a big thing I wanna do is take my dad out to the beach, not just to go thrifting or to stop at Depoe Bay, but actually to a spot where we can enjoy watching the waves wash over the sand. My dad has pretty bad health, so I'm never really sure just how much time I have left with him, so I wanna make it happen while I've got a chance. I don't think I could ever forgive myself if I didn't give him the opportunity to see the coast that he desperately misses. I doubt there's anywhere on sand that we can go because of his wheelchair, but anything close will be a good recommendation. Moe's over in Lincoln City is on my list of places to stop for food that also has a good view of the ocean from a flat, sturdy surface.

2023.06.07 09:40 Pinto_RED_Window13 Black commander (tf2 freakshow) Vs Jin sakai (ghost of Tsushima)
[INT. ABANDONED WAREHOUSE - NIGHT]
JIN SAKAI, a samurai in his 30s, wearing a dark cloak and mask, sneaks into the warehouse. He sees a group of REPLICANTS, soldiers with glowing eyes and enhanced abilities, guarding a large crate.
JIN: (voice-over) I've tracked down the source of the dark magic that's been plaguing Tsushima. It's a strange crystal that belongs to a warlord named Commander Black. He's using it to create an army of Replicants, twisted versions of my fellow samurai. I have to stop him before he unleashes them on the island.
Jin takes out his bow and shoots an arrow at one of the Replicants, killing him instantly. The others notice and start looking around.
REPLICANT 1: What was that?
REPLICANT 2: We're under attack!
Jin quickly switches to his sword and charges at the Replicants, slashing and stabbing them with swift movements. He uses his ghost weapons to distract and disable them, throwing kunai, smoke bombs, and sticky bombs.
JIN: (voice-over) I've learned to fight like a ghost, using stealth and deception to strike fear into my enemies. It goes against the samurai code, but it's the only way to survive against these odds.
Jin manages to kill all the Replicants and reaches the crate. He opens it and sees the crystal inside, glowing with a sinister red light.
JIN: There it is. The source of all this evil.
He reaches for the crystal, but suddenly hears a loud roar from above. He looks up and sees COMMANDER BLACK, a BLK Soldier TF2 Freak in his 40s, wearing a black helmet and cape, flying towards him.
COMMANDER BLACK: Who dares to touch my crystal?
JIN: Who are you?
COMMANDER BLACK: I am Commander Black, the ruler of this world. And you are nothing but a bug that needs to be squashed.
Commander Black lands on the ground and blasts Jin with a dark magic beam from his hand. Jin dodges and rolls away.
JIN: (voice-over) This is the man who killed my uncle and countless others. He has powers beyond anything I've ever seen. But I can't let him win. I have to fight for Tsushima.
Jin stands up and faces Commander Black.
JIN: You're not a ruler. You're a tyrant. And I'm here to end your reign.
COMMANDER BLACK: Ha! You think you can stop me? You're just a pathetic samurai who doesn't know his place.
Commander Black charges at Jin with his sword drawn. Jin blocks with his own sword and they clash in a fierce duel.
JIN SAKAI and COMMANDER BLACK continue their duel, exchanging blows and parries. Jin tries to use his ghost weapons, but Commander Black deflects them with his dark magic.
COMMANDER BLACK: You're wasting your time with those toys. You can't hurt me with anything less than a nuke.
JIN: I don't need a nuke. I have my sword and my honor.
COMMANDER BLACK: Honor? What a joke. Honor is for weaklings who can't face the truth. The truth is that power is everything. And I have more power than you can imagine.
Commander Black unleashes a barrage of dark magic blasts at Jin, who barely dodges them. He gets hit by one and falls to the ground, wounded.
JIN: (voice-over) He's too strong. I can't keep up with him. But I can't give up. I have to find a way to destroy that crystal. It's the only chance to stop him.
Jin gets up and runs towards the crate, hoping to reach the crystal before Commander Black notices. But Commander Black sees him and flies after him.
COMMANDER BLACK: Where do you think you're going? You can't escape from me.
JIN: I'm not escaping. I'm ending this.
Jin reaches the crate and grabs the crystal, hoping to smash it on the ground. But before he can, Commander Black grabs his arm and squeezes it hard, making him drop the crystal.
COMMANDER BLACK: Nice try, but you're too late. This crystal is mine. And so is your life.
Commander Black lifts Jin up in the air and throws him across the warehouse, crashing into a wall. Jin falls to the floor, barely conscious.
JIN: (voice-over) This is it. I've failed. I've failed Tsushima. I've failed my uncle. I've failed myself.
Commander Black walks towards Jin, holding the crystal in his hand. He laughs maniacally.
COMMANDER BLACK: You see this? This is the source of my power. This is what makes me unstoppable. And this is what will make me the ruler of this world.
JIN: No... you can't...
COMMANDER BLACK: Oh, but I can. And I will. And you will be the first to witness my glory.
Commander Black raises the crystal above his head and prepares to strike Jin with it.
COMMANDER BLACK: Goodbye, samurai. Say hello to hell for me.
JIN: No...
Commander Black brings down the crystal on Jin's head, killing him instantly.
COMMANDER BLACK: Ha ha ha ha ha! Yes! Yes! I did it! I killed the Ghost of Tsushima!
He holds up the crystal and looks at it with admiration.
COMMANDER BLACK: And now, nothing can stop me. Nothing!
He looks at the camera and smiles wickedly.
COMMANDER BLACK: Nothing!

2023.06.07 09:26 alexhart99 Future Saint James School Of Medicine Student Fall 2023 - Canadian Student & A Little About me
Hi everyone! I was accepted to Saint James School of Medicine (SJSM) and will be attending in the upcoming Fall of 2023. I am a Canadian student who has been out of my undergrad for about two years now, I weighed my options and am really looking forward to attending school this year.
I received my acceptance in January and to be perfectly honest it was a back up plan. My partner and those around me were more excited for this acceptance, yet I do not know why but I can't shake this feeling of partial lack of accomplishment. Although, through this decision I know I will be way happier in school again pursuing my dream than banking on MAYBE getting an interview next cycle, or cycle(s) after that.
I applied to Ontario schools in Canada my first time around applying to medical school in 2020 going into my final year of undergrad. I received 0 interviews with a 515 MCAT score (128,128,129,130), CASPer score was not given out that year, 3.92 GPA (Ontario scale). Some main activities of mine included my own business from High School (chickens for 3 years), Personal Trainer for 2 years, volunteering at 2 different Hospices etc anyways no bites from schools. Looking back my application was not great (writing as well was so cringe hahaha) but still I believed I was an okay applicant.
I applied this cycle (2023 admission) to 16 American schools + 5 Ontario schools, been quite disheartening although which is usual for premeds these days. I genuinely believed I had a great shot this time around since I added a ton of new activities, fleshed out why medicine and practiced for interviews a lot.
Results: 16/16 rejections from American schools outright no II. Pre II Rejections from McMaster, UofT, Western, Queens-Lakeridge Family medicine, interview with Queens & Ottawa. Rejected post MMI at Queens, then Waitlisted (low af on speculated list) with Ottawa but basically a rejection. I felt great after my interview at Ottawa but clearly I was not the caliber I thought I was.
- Stats: Same MCAT, cGPA Ontario scale: 3.93, AMCAS scale 4.0 GPA. CASPer: American = 4Q & Canadian = 3Q. Preeview Exam 6/9.
- Activities: volunteering with Hospice in the community (3rd one over span of 5 years), working at a Toronto hospital in-patient surgery as a patient assistant >1y at the time FT, personal trainer, soccer coach, shadowing multiple physicians in ER + OR 60 hours ish, FT customer service >6months, owned chicken business during high school, Senior Systems Anatomy/Lab Volunteer for two years. Heavy focus on employment, volunteering, shadowing, school and sports/hobbies (eg. I play soccer, workout all the time and rock climb), have honestly not got around to much research which I definitely will before residency apps.
I really believed I had a great shot this year and have been thinking back on my potential downfalls. Writing seems to be a possibility, although I spent so long on those dang essays and everyone I had read it. Missing research as well, interview skills, I don't know. I am honestly just so happy SJSM has given me an opportunity to still pursue my dream. I have a full-ride scholarship with the school (MCAT + essay) so it will be a reduced cost which is fantastic.
I just wanted to put all this out here for anyone on reddit to see as I could not find much recent information available on SJSM as an incoming student. I am hoping to practice in the States after I am done my 20 months on the island, also am open to specialties like Family Med, Internal Med, Surgery, Trauma Surg and Pediatrics but I am sure one will have my heart after clinical rotations.
If any students attending/attended SJSM or have stories about their journey through the school/matching I would really appreciate it. Additionally, maybe any Canadian students who have went through this process please I would love to hear from you & your experience.
Even anyone wanting to comment their thoughts please do!
I appreciate anyone who read my little premed story lol, thank you for your time! :D

2023.06.07 09:21 Harry_is_white_hot I'm not buying the whole "We have no data on crash retrievals" narrative being pushed by Gough et. al. and the Pentagon. There is an enormous amount of declassified and sanitized information available in DoD and DoE holdings, including organization names, addresses, and telephone numbers.
| Don't know where to look https://ia601505.us.archive.org/30/items/StarfishPrimeInterimReportByCommanderJTF8/Starfish%20Prime%20Interim%20Report%20By%20Commander%20JTF-8.mp4 There is a lot of scientific data holdings from EG&G, Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories regarding Bluegill Triple Prime shootdown, crash and retrieval. These excerpts of transcripts from the Nevada Test Site Oral History archives by former EG&G staff involved in the Operation Fishbowl tests describe the scientific instruments used in the Bluegill Triple Prime shot, the KC-135 platforms they operated from and how they were calibrated. (Interviewer questions in italics). Interview with Peter Henry Zavattaro (EG&G) May 31, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d19g5gr4z "Shortly after I got started in this, we got involved with Los Alamos [National Laboratory] oratory] on a project called—well, we were building a system called a Z system, and this was designed to—this was a pre-Vela [Uniform] activity and it was designed to look at air fluorescence of a nuclear burst out of space, out in the outer atmosphere. The X-rays would impinge on the atmosphere and light it up at certain precise wavelengths. So we built this system to look at that. And it was deployed around the world. (pg 2) Dominic was the Pacific test program and, was kind of a period where we tested, I guess it was over 100 tests, every day almost. And I was supporting a branch of the Air Force at the time. And we had a KC-135 that was filled with instrumentation, cameras, antennas. We looked at electromagnetic pulses and photographed things. And we flew on the airplane. Whenever there was a test, we would fly down to Christmas Island or wherever the test was, collect data, and fly back. Lived in Oahu, so we worked out of Hickam Air Force Base [Hawaii] for months and months. In July of ‘62, I think it was ‘62, [07/09/1962] we started the high-altitude series, which the first test was Starfish. Starfish was a large-yield device, 400 miles up or something. It’s in the book someplace. [DOE/NV—209 Rev 15 December 2000] But anyway that lit up the whole sky. You could see that the sky turned green from Hawaii to Samoa. It was just spectacular. I had a copy of Life Magazine that had that on the cover and I can’t find it. It would be in ‘62; ‘62 issue of Life. But after that particular test, there was concerns about what the Russians were doing, and the plane that I was supporting went to Russia. I stayed in Hawaii and took a trailer of equipment, and the government rented a freighter, a Portuguese freighter called Private Frank J. Petracka. My trailer was strapped to one of the holds on this freighter and we went down to Johnson Island, and I spent forty-six days anchored off Johnson Island looking at the rest of the high-altitude series plus some atmospheric shots. The shots down there, the famous one was Bluegill because it took them three tries to actually get that successfully fired. The first one blew up on the pad. The second one blew up shortly after launch, so there were parts of rocket motors and things falling down. And the third test was successful. (pg. 4) (Zavattaro is mistaken here - it was the 4th test of the Bluegill device that was successful). But after Dominic was over, I became more involved with Los Alamos. The first thing that happened after the test series was over was coming up with a readiness program for resuming testing in the Pacific, and that was called the Future Off-Continent Program, FOC. And I worked on that until the program was cancelled. Basically, it was a clause in one of the safeguards, Safeguard C, that said we had to be prepared to promptly resume atmospheric testing in the Pacific. So they came up with a concept for that exercise. The concept was that to so that to solve some of the logistics problems of the past test series—because weather in the Pacific is really spotty. You never know where you can see things. So the concept was they would have a flying experiment. They would have the drop plane fly and they would have an array of airplanes follow it and they would find some nice clear place in the Pacific and fire the test. So this was the concept, and to support that, each of the labs had designed an aircraft for experimentation. Sandia had their own, [Lawrence] Livermore [National Laboratory] had their own, and Los Alamos had their own. So they modified these three aircraft, which were called NC-135s, which were refuelable KC-135s, at Fort Worth [Texas]. General Dynamics modified the planes. And I supported—we would go down and we designed the camera mounts and a lot of the stuff that went on the air—a lot of the supporting infrastructure, cameras and things, that went on the airplanes. And then after they completed them, they moved them to Kirtland Air Force Base [New Mexico]; Holmes and Narver designed an array of pad, three pads, for the aircraft, and they were stationed down there. And we had an array of trailers and we staffed it with people from Boston. The first test of this system was called Crosscheck, and we had an experiment. We went out to the Pacific and checked out with a flare and cameras and the whole nine yards to see if everything worked. (pg 5) What was going on in Boston, supporting Los Alamos, was looking at the high altitude data. We were digitizing all the thousands of frames of data that we had from the highaltitude tests with very sophisticated digitizing equipment at the time. And the lab felt that the arrangement was too costly to have this interface, so they wanted us to move our resources that supported them to Los Alamos, and that’s when we basically opened the office there. I moved to Los Alamos in ’70 to set up an engineering department; and I moved about, I think it was thirteen or fourteen people that worked for me from Boston to Los Alamos." Now, which division or group were you supporting at Los Alamos? This was J-10. J-10 was the field division, the real test division, and at that time that was the biggest, the key group. It was headed up by a guy named Herman Hoerlin who was a quite famous scientist from Germany, and he was a very interesting guy. (pg 9) And who was the head of J-Division then? It went through a few people. Herman Hoerlin, after Herman left, God, I can’t— A whole bunch of people. Don [Donald M.] Kerr was there for a while. Hard to remember all these things. It’s been so many years. (pg.11). Interview with James Arnold Hodges (EG&G) January 17 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d16m33f80 "Well, not originally. Actually, I went into that pretty quick, too, into the taking pictures. I worked with Harry Smith who had some cameras called, oh, well, what were those called? We were up at Building 400 and we had rotor cameras. They had a rotor in them that turned 4,000 rps [rotations per second] and they would—oh, streak cameras, that’s what they were called. When the bomb went off, they made a streak with time and that showed you, since you knew what the speed of the rotor was and how long the film was, it showed you how big the fireball got. They used that for measurements on the yield, yield measurements. And I did that quite a while. When I wasn’t doing the streak camera measurements, I was working in the office in the other photo camera stations. We had photo stations everywhere sitting out there with cameras in them, all types of cameras, all speeds from Rapatronic cameras that took a picture in four billionths of a second to so-called cloud cameras that took a picture every few seconds and traced the cloud as it was going up. (pg. 4) Some of the pictures that we took are still classified. One of them was taken by a Rapatronic camera. I had a streak camera with a sixteen-foot telescope on it and it looked right into the cab of the tower and you could see the case of the bomb. We have a picture of a crack appearing in the case as it started to blow up. That picture’s still classified. And then I took one at Johnston Island from the deck of the Boxer, that’s an old aircraft carrier with an old wood deck, it was an old one. And they classified the picture because it was some clouds which had, of course, the aerial bomb went off way up in the atmosphere and there was a cloud shaped like an angel, so they said, Oh, we don’t dare publish that picture. People will say we’re punching a hole in the sky and all the air’s going to run out and everything else. And so they classified that picture, and as far as I know, it’s still classified. I don’t think it was ever released. (pg.6) I was there for the so-called high altitude sun tests. We took pictures from a high altitude airplane. So you took pictures from the plane. Yes. Of the sun. I don’t remember just why. And did you take those, or again did you have equipment set up to do that? We had equipment set up to do it. I shot some stills from Johnston Island, from the deck of the carrier, I shot some of those stills. That’s in fact the one where the angel was, I shot that one. And like I say, that one’s hid somewhere far, far down in the— So none of your stuff ever went out to the media or the press. No. This was just all for in-house EG&G? Yeah. I guess since then they released some of the shots. (pg.25) Interview with Vernon Henry Jones (EG&G) October 4, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1q23rb6p " Right. Now physically what happened with the film? Because I have no idea. The cameras are there. You remove the cameras. How does that work? Cameras, no. We would remove the film only from all of them. Some of them, you just take the film reel out of them and we had regular film-carrying cases that we would put the film in. Some of them had film magazines on top of them. Some of them were quite large. Like the Fastax camera had a thousand-foot roll of 35-millimeter film on top of it. The Fastax, the name of the camera, it was a real high-speed camera, and it would go through that whole thousand feet of film in one and a half seconds. No way! Oh, yes! You should hear that camera when it ran. It was like, stand back! In what sense? Noisy! The noise would scare you, hearing that thing wind up the way it did. That camera had a drive motor on the film feed and the take-up spool. That’s how fast that turkey went. So there was probably an average, I don’t know, six to eight cameras in each station. Some were small; some were there for just cloud cover, to see which way the cloud went after the shot. Of course they were real slow-speed cameras. And the others, we had the Mitchell that generally ran at a hundred frames per second. I don’t know offhand what they were really after, but it was one of the cameras, and various other ones in there. We had some high-speed Eastman cameras, slowspeed Triads, and others, I don’t recall their names. (pg.11) Photo. Setting up field photo. Now there were other people helping me some at times, but for the most part I did the majority of that by myself. A lot of the cameras were mounted on a tripod, small cameras. The camera was called by letters GSAP, which stood for Gunsight Aerial Photography-type camera. It’s a little bitty thing, run on 24 volts, had a fifty-foot roll of 16-millimeter film in them. These were all over the place, taking pictures of all these different things (pg. 52) Interview with Wayne Albert Violette (EG&G) January 12, 2005 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1h12vk31 "This was actually done on film. When the bomb would go off, there would be oscilloscope traces recorded and it would record like the alpha growth rate of the bomb. The first few thousandths of a millionth or nanoseconds of the bomb going off is what the critical information was because after that it was all over. And is that what you guys looked at? Yes, the first few nanoseconds. That’s where they would get most of their information as far as the effectiveness of the bomb and the efficiency of it, and I’m not sure what the physicists were really looking at, but the alpha growth rate was primarily what we were looking at, right at the very beginning. (pg.10) I was also sent for two or three weeks to Albuquerque to work on some of the—I think KC-135s, they’re 707s, I believe—was the civilian name for the planes. We went back and we worked on those for putting equipment in them; they were preparing if they went to atmospheric testing again. These had a big window on one side and the equipment was set to where they could take pictures out of it. I had my particular little thing to do, installing certain equipment, so I wasn’t privy to a lot of the details of what they were doing. But that was very interesting, too, to go back there and just be part of it. Sandia built the bombs, and Sandia Labs was back there. (pg.13). We didn’t process—we came up with negatives. They would look at the negative. It was actually a negative image. It looked like a dark image on a light background, rather than the white image on the dark background. When we would set the equipment up, we would have to get them focused exactly. Very critical on focus and getting the right intensity so they would be the best image possible. We used a lot of Polaroid film doing that. We’d go through boxes and boxes of Polaroid film on the setup of it. The actual photo, though, was then done on an actual negative. So I know Polaroid must’ve made a lot of money off the test site because we used a lot of that, and yellow tape." (pg.15) Military v Civilian control It also appears that there were problems within the U.S. Government bureaucracy regarding the military maintaining control over nuclear weapons. This is rectified somehow by the wording in the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, and is explained here by the Defence Special Weapons Agency's Associate Dean Byron L. Ristvet. Interview with Byron Leo Ristvet, (DSWA) April 17, 2006 https://special.library.unlv.edu/ark%3A/62930/d1qf8jw7j "So the British never had that civilian control quandary that we did. And let me just tell you bluntly, when Truman wanted the Atomic Energy Commission created and in civilian control because he didn’t trust the military, guess who was his strongest supporter? George C. Marshall. Leslie Groves. They both testified secretly at the time that they did not want the production of weapons under the services. They wanted the control of special nuclear material, the design, and the production to remain totally a civilian enterprise. And what was, their reasoning there again? Was it the knowledge? No, their reasoning was, is they just felt that the military shouldn’t be in control of such awesome power, that the Constitution had basically said civilians should be in power, and so this way it made it very positive. I think had the Goldwater-Nichols Act been in place where the secretary of war and the secretary of the Navy had control over the CNO and over the chief of staff of the Army who at that time reported directly to the president. It would’ve been different. But the Defense Department really didn’t gain the civilian control power until ’85. Well, you know, there were changes, and the biggest change to the Atomic Energy Act was ’54, when the military was allowed to have custody of special nuclear material. Prior to that it was always under the control of the AEC, and that was because we were going to these sealed designs, and even where the what’s called the capsule ball assembly was not inserted into the high explosive, it was still carried on the weapon; it was integral to the weapon and you couldn’t manually insert it in flight, it was automatically inserted in flight, and as a result, you had to grant the custody—plus the response times were getting less and less and less. You know, the late forties, three days. By the time you were in ’54, you were getting down to three-or-four-hour kind of response times, about half the time it takes to fly over the poles. By the time you were in the late fifties, you had missiles. Of course we didn’t know the missile gap was sort of nonexistent, but in ’58 the response time was getting down to thirty minutes. And by the time you were in the ’66-’67 time frame, when the Russians had their first fleet ballistic submarines, you were now down to fifteen-minute response time. That’s why the Cuban missile crisis in ’62 was such a huge thing, because now you were looking at seven-or-eight-minute response times. (pg.32) This is of interest here because according to the Majestic Documents, it was claimed by Allen Dulles that these changes to the Atomic Energy Act 1954 allowed him exclude President John F. Kennedy from knowing the details of the MJ-12 program: Dulles response to President Kennedy https://majesticdocuments.com/pdf/mj12opsreview-dulles-61.pdf It would be interesting to know if Pharis Williams and Oke Shannon had any involvement with the J-10 group at Los Alamos or have knowledge of the Bluegill Triple Prime anomaly. For the past five years, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) weapon physicist Greg Spriggs and a crack team of film experts, archivists and software developers have been on a mission to hunt down, scan, reanalyze and declassify film recordings of the U.S. atmospheric nuclear tests. In this video, Lab science communicator Maren Hunsberger interviews Greg Spriggs to answer some of the most frequently asked questions we've received about the test films since sharing them on YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsOrRWzmmUU&list=PLvGO_dWo8VfcmG166wKRy5z-GlJ_OQND5&index=99 Digitization of atmospheric test films ongoing at LLNL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWpqGKUG5yY&list=PLvGO_dWo8VfcmG166wKRy5z-GlJ_OQND5&index=1 The Pentagon doesn't seem to be trying too hard to find the data. submitted by Harry_is_white_hot to UFOB [link] [comments] |
2023.06.07 09:12 createdjustforthis23 07/06/2023
I had a morning shower today which was very nice, they truly are such a treat. If having two showers regularly wouldn’t f my skin up I would do them super often. I’m starting work late today, I feel off and a bit headachey and I just want to start an hour later so I am. I very rarely take sick days, the last one was in September I think so I think it’s okay if I take one hour this morning. I don’t take a lot of leave from work at all actually, especially not compared to others in the team. I took Easter off though, that was four whole days. So I do take leave, just not very often. I’m starting to think maybe I need an
actual break, an
actual holiday. I’ve been daydreaming a lot about some sort of retreat, or a holiday in that nature. Just a holiday filled with things like
- relaxing outside somewhere peaceful with a book, maybe by the sea or a private pool
- excessive numbers of regular spa treatments like massages, facials etc
- some kind of healing like reiki or chakra alignment and whatnot because even if I mightn’t understand them, I just think I would find the whole process beneficial
- nature filled walks
- meditation classes
- yoga classes
All things like that. A holiday to
centre myself. I don’t know where? Thailand? Indonesia/Bali? Somewhere here? Hawaii? The pacific islands? Somewhere affordable. Somewhere I could go this year. Somewhere where I haven’t dreamed of going with Andy. I can’t go to places where I want to go with him. He doesn’t have any real interest in beachy places so that’s why I’m thinking of the above and Thailand and Bali etc have all those healing retreat places? I think I need to seriously consider and look into this. I’ve been thinking about it for so long and I daydream about something like that every day and I just feel like I spend my whole goddamn life WAITING. Except I feel like I can’t go. I feel like if I was to book a holiday it would be some kind of betrayal to Andy. Like I’m meant to be suffering aren’t I, and to be quite frank I often feel like I am, but to take a
holiday? Would he be upset with me? Would he think negatively about it? Maybe I shouldn’t go. I don’t want to upset him or cause any disruption between us? But I also want to. I haven’t been on any kind of holiday in years. I feel burned out and stressed and I know these are things I will only fix through continuous lifestyle changes but I want a proper break from reality. I want to just pause my life and go away for a week or two. No work, no nothing. Just relaxing and healing. My therapist has suggested it a few times, she thinks it would be beneficial for me and would be a good exercise in stepping outside of my comfort zone and re-finding that confidence in myself that I had found while travelling internationally alone a few years ago. Because I did have that, I had that feeling of being capable because I proved to myself that I was. I booked flights, caught trains, travelled to plenty of countries all by myself and it helped my self confidence quite a lot. It’s just it didn’t last. But maybe a trip somewhere would help me bring it back. But where? But also I don’t care about that, I care about Andy and I don’t want him to think I’m taking the P (I don’t like that word) in going on a holiday while we’re on this break. But also should he not be supportive? It’s not like I’m going somewhere I would go with him, I would purposefully choose somewhere I know he has no interest in going ie SE Asia where he’s explicitly told me he doesn’t want to go. And it’s for a WEEK. And it’s to help me, and this whole point of the break is for me to “heal” and all that first. Maybe this would help? I think it would? Would it? I don’t know. Am I just being crazy? Am I ACTUALLY going to do it? I doubt it. I used to be more spontaneous, I can be spontaneous with people but not so much alone, things are scarier alone. I wish I had a friend to go with. K? M? Hmm. Anyway. I know this won’t happen. I just wish sometimes I’d actually act on my thoughts. I’m just so scared to, all the time.
It’s been a bit of a Jeff day, it always is when I’m in a bit of a melancholy mood. Lover you should’ve come over has been the main one. Though I’ve only listened to a few and just replayed that one a few times as I’ve just felt like not listening to anything. This is one of my favourites, not my FAVOURITE but favourites. I think last goodbye will forever be my favourite.

2023.06.07 09:09 praetorion999 Help! Mark, a Shriner/freemason, has raped my toddler niece in astral realm
He went by tik tok name @Harp.o.Crates (I think in Charlotte, NC) of Tik Tok. He and his clan have also been terrorizing my family with witchcraft for 2 years now but I'm mostly scared of his raping (he isn't the only mason having done it). How do I stop him from doing witchcraft against me and raping my niece going forward ?🧹🦇
She is under 3 years old and being used and abused in astral realm by his people ⛽🍭
I need help stopping him and his clan from further raping my niece in astral realm. I've heard her complain about it while awake and name him, Mark, aka @harp o.crates of tik tok (and has named at least one other person as doing that to her), who I think is in Charlotte, NC as raping her. In astral realm. It is happening to her while she is awake and fully conscious and she is able to say who is doing it

2023.06.07 09:03 MalcoveMagnesia primary care / family doctor recommendations for Royal Oak?
This is the kind of question that might get asked on the Facebook groups or one I would ask the professional Karens of NextDoor 🤪, but for a change of pace maybe I'll have good luck asking here?
Anyone have any recommendations for awesome/decent primary care doctors in Royal Oak?
The doctor I visited for issues for many years turned into a concierge doctor (i.e. ~$2000 yearly fee just to get in the door; and doing a max of 1-2 visits per year, it just didn't make sense to pay the fee), and the medical group I'm going to since then (no names but they're located right by Kroger Marketplace) are absolutely not fun to deal with (overworked doctors who act dismissive or uninterested in the patient, and cranky front office people who either schedule a physicians assistant video-call or tell me to go to Urgent Care when I'm feeling really sick). So that's why I am hoping peeps here might have some recommendations I can investigate.

2023.06.07 08:53 newsu1 Vulnerability's Strength Within - By Newsu 👌
The Tale of the Courageous Seed
In a vast garden nestled between towering trees, there lived a small seed who longed to grow and blossom into something beautiful. But the seed was afraid, for it knew that taking risks and facing rejection were necessary steps on the path to growth.
One day, a wise old oak tree noticed the seed's trepidation and called out, "Dear seed, do not fear the unknown. Embrace your vulnerabilities and discover the strength within you."
Perplexed, the seed asked, "But how can vulnerability be a source of strength? Will it not expose my weaknesses and limit my potential?"
The oak tree chuckled softly and replied, "Ah, little seed, vulnerability is not a weakness, but a doorway to courage and self-assurance. When you face your vulnerabilities, you unlock hidden reserves of resilience and bravery."
The seed pondered these words and ventured forth, embracing its vulnerabilities. It soon realized that it was not alone in its fears, for all the plants in the garden had their own insecurities. This shared understanding kindled empathy and compassion among them, forging deeper connections.
As the seed navigated through the challenges of vulnerability, it felt its inner strength growing. It took great courage to acknowledge its fears and step into the discomfort. Each time it confronted a vulnerability, it proved to itself that it was capable of withstanding adversity.
With every conquered fear, the seed's confidence bloomed. It learned to trust in its own abilities, knowing that it had faced challenges before and emerged stronger. This newfound confidence propelled the seed beyond its comfort zone, enabling it to take risks and embrace new opportunities.
In embracing vulnerability, the seed also discovered authenticity. It let go of the need to hide its imperfections and embraced its true self. This authenticity allowed the seed to connect genuinely with others, fostering deep relationships and a sense of belonging.
The seed came to understand that vulnerability was not synonymous with weakness. On the contrary, it required great inner strength to confront uncomfortable truths. In embracing vulnerability, the seed empowered itself and created space for personal growth and resilience.
Ultimately, the seed realized that its vulnerabilities did not define it but were catalysts for transformation. It understood that by embracing its vulnerabilities, it tapped into its inner strength, forged authentic connections, and embarked on a journey of self-discovery and empowerment.
And so, dear friends, let us remember the tale of the courageous seed. May we find the strength to embrace our vulnerabilities, for within them lies the key to unlocking our true potential and blossoming into the magnificent beings we are meant to be.

Therefore, if this website ever comes back up, kindly try to stay away from it at all costs. Avoid KonohaFX as well while looking for a broker because it is a trading fraud.

2023.06.07 08:43 ApprehensiveBanana07 Trauma bonded & it feels so hopeless.
Not sure what flair to add because it’s basically all of the above and I don’t have the energy to go into it all anyway. I just need a place to get my thoughts out.
I’m trauma bonded to my partner and it feels completely hopeless. He’s assaulted me and damaged any property I own that had any value.
I know he loves me. Genuinely. This is something people won’t get because his behavior goes against what love should be. I know he loves me he just isn’t capable of treating me right.
A few months ago we found out he’s had untreated BPD. He’s 37. He was accepting of his dx, got into therapy and on meds all on his own. There was improvement for awhile so I stayed. I kept staying because even through periods of nc, he kept going weekly. So I always took him back. But the improvement lasts for a bit then there’s another blow up over any perceived threat or betrayal (I go above and beyond to make sure he feels emotionally safe.) He gets violent and destructive.
Now he’s got into this pattern where he makes serious suicide attempts after he lashes out. Can’t live with himself etc…. They were pretty bad.
He’s in a treatment center right now. We haven’t had contact in almost two weeks. This is his fifth hospital stay in six weeks.
Sometimes I can’t tell if he’s intentionally malicious or just sick. Or if being sick implies both. I know I can have compassion for his situation and still know it’s not in my best interest to be with him. But I just can’t actually leave.
I’ve been staying with family because I stopped functioning. I was alternating between living in a constant panic attack or sleeping the days away from depression. I wouldn’t get up to eat, shower or even turn on the tv. I was just wasting away.
I feel hopeless. & helpless. I know this relationship is abusive. I’m fully aware. I know how bad things have for and it should have ended after the first incident.
But I’m hopelessly in love with this man. I am expecting to hear from him any day, getting out of the hospital. It wasn’t today so probably tomorrow. He wouldn’t have the audacity to ask to come home but all I want is to hear from him and have him home.
But how many times am I going to put myself in a position to have yet another phone broken? Another laptop broken? Bruises on my body…
I never use to be this low. I use to have strong sense of self and boundaries.
I feel like I’ve lost myself completely to this man. & yet I can’t even begin to find the emotional capacity or stamina to walk away.
I’ve been with my same therapist for 14 years. But it’s not helping right now.
This is more of a vent than anything. I know I should make a safety plan and leave (or commit to pursuing charges to keep him away.) I know there’s a healthier life than this.
It’s just … I feel like maybe there’s that one person that comes into your life that shakes everything up so much that you just can’t go back. Back before them. Back without them. You go from barely existing… to just gone. & eventually you give up because you can’t see any other way to do life without them.
Sorry for being so stuck guys …. I’ve been a long time advocate for DV awareness. I just feel… completely defeated.

2023.06.07 08:43 slymario2416 I hope Nintendo goes wild with DLCs
Since it’s probably going to be a long while until we get the next mainline Zelda game, I really hope Nintendo just goes crazy with DLC. The DLC for BoTW was… fine but I really want ToTK DLC to be more than that. Expand the Depths (mechanically, not in how big it is) like add some new enemy types down there, more bosses, etc. Add some new enemy types and bosses to the overworld too.
Expand the sky islands and add some bigger islands akin to the Great Sky Island. Maybe even a new, one off smaller area we haven’t seen before. Maybe some new abilities and weapon types, idc, as long as it’s substantial and expansive DLC. There is STILL so much potential with this game, even with how much they’ve already done with it. I know I can’t be alone in thinking this so hopefully it’s somewhere in Nintendo’s pipeline.
