Awesome photo. Though, I was thrown off by the picture. In the US we often refer to vultures as buzzards and we would likely refer to this as a hawk. I’m not sure how we messed that one up.

Where I grew up had a ton of Red-tailed Hawks and the occasional Swallow-tailed Kites. I always love seeing and hearing them around.

That’s a good possibility. It didn’t quite sound like a hawk, but I’m not too familiar with falcons.

I’ve had some bird of prey around my apartment in Brooklyn that keeps eluding me. I’ll hear it from time to time, but never quite know where it is.

I caught a glimpse of it once out of the corner of my eye. I saw a blur as something swooped down to snag a pigeon off my window sill. It was courteous enough to return half of the bird to my fire escape. That was fun to dispose of.

I saw my share of hawks growing up in Florida, but it’s still cool seeing and hearing them around the city.

“I also propose that we put a warning on all horseradish that clearly states that if you ingest an entire bottle, that you will blow out your sphincter. Also, if anyone knows anyone that recently died with an intact size 3 sphincter, please contact me as I am currently very low on the waiting list for a donor.”

Looks great! If you’d like an easy sauce, you could macerate the strawberries. Just sprinkle a little sugar over cut strawberries, cover, and let sit an hour or so until the juices start to draw out.

I’m also recommended salt by my cardiologist and neurologist, primarily to raise my blood volume. Without it my blood pressure may run low and I get less blood to the upper half of my body. I mainly get my salt by adding electrolytes in my water throughout the day since I also need increased water intake. Though, I may sprinkle a little iodized salt on my meals if I feel I need it.

Wondering that too. I love how many people contributed to that article with so little content.

I’m curious what the frequency of these types of balloons are and if it’s increasing or we’re just more focused on them. There were supposedly some tweaks to sensors last year that started to include balloons and other objects that would have been previously filtered out as noise in the data. So, they’re at least probably getting detected more often. If it’s a matter of being more focused on them, then I wonder what risks they’re concerned about.

Celiac isn’t the only condition that makes people sensitive to gluten containing foods. And, so what if some people haven’t put thought or effort into figuring out why gluten makes them feel bad?

People don’t need a diagnosis to know what foods impact them. A lot of the time doctors will recommend elimination diets to find out what foods to avoid. There’s no need to say it’s celiac if you know gluten containing foods make you feel worse.

For me it’s at least a wheat allergy, so I benefit from gluten free foods. I could get tested for celiac, but most tests require consuming gluten for a while in advance of testing. I’m not going to bother, since I know it’ll make me sick.

I actually appreciate the trend of people going gluten free, because even though prices have gone up, companies are taking more effort to make gluten free alternatives. The early gluten free alternatives were fairly nasty and now some options are close to the real thing.

I’m wondering why this hasn’t been addressed yet. There were posts last night asking about it that have since been removed. There should be some post explaining the incident and what actions are being taken. But, there definitely needs to be additional action taken to prevent this going forward.

Glad to help! It actually brought back memories of playing around with some at my grandma’s pool when I was a kid.

I was thrown off since it’s a weird place to be carrying one and typically used in pairs. They probably just grabbed some pool equipment and handed it to a character to add to the vacation feel of the scene.

Looks like water resistance training equipment.

If such programs exist, other countries may not want to show their hand if they know they trail behind the US. Sightings themselves could always be concealed due to national security concerns. Then there’s just the possibility of lack of interest or negligence in documenting UAP.

As long as we don’t combine the two topics. I’m not quite ready for alien sex researchers.
