QUICK! DUCK!

KEEP YOUR HEAD DOWN TONIGHT!

I’ll be out on my deck tonight watching for the Space Trash that’s about ready to fall on Cape Ann. I’ll cover my Folly Cove Rum Punch Drink. I don’t need no space crap ruining my perfect drink. GOODLUCK ALL!

Hopefully we’ll see you in the Morning.

“A huge, dead satellite tumbling to Earth is falling slower than expected, and may now plummet down somewhere over the United States tonight or early Saturday, despite forecasts that it would miss North America entirely, NASA officials now say.

The 6 1/2-ton Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) was expected to fall to Earth sometime Friday afternoon, but changes in the school bus-size satellite’s motion may push it to early Saturday, according to NASA’s latest observations of the spacecraft.”

  1. Here’s something to read while you enjoy your drink. Just the LAFD trying to do their part with all the budget cuts.

    LAFD investigates use of city fire trucks in porn films

    September 22, 2011 | 9:21am
    The Los Angeles Fire Department is investigating allegations that two fire stations allowed department fire trucks to be used in porn shoots.

    The story was first reported by NBC4 LA, which posted clips from the video, showing a scantily clad actress exposing herself to passersby on Venice Beach.

    At one point, she approaches a parked fire truck from Station 63 in Venice and exclaims, “Look at this fire truck! Isn’t that nice?” before climbing onto a fire truck and exposing herself to the camera.

    A second shoot allegedly used a truck from Station 41 in Hollywood.

    Capt. Jaime Moore, a spokesman for the department, confirmed Thursday that the Professional Standards Division launched an investigation into the Venice porn shoot in April or May, and the allegations of a second shoot in Hollywood came out of that investigation.

    The investigation is trying to determine to what extent fire personnel had knowledge of the shoot and whether any firefighters participated, he said. No firefighters have been fired or placed on leave in relation to the incidents to date, he said.

    The NBC4 report alleged that firefighters helped to set up the shoot and actually appeared in the video watching the shoot. (The onlookers’ faces were blurred out in the video posted). Moore said that is part of the investigation but could not confirm what involvement, if any, the firefighters had.

    “They’re trying to determine whether the firefighters really knew this was going to happen, did they participate, and why wasn’t someone on the engine?” he said.

    Personnel at the Venice and Hollywood fire stations reached by telephone declined to comment.

    “It’s not one of our proudest moments,” Moore said. But he said the department’s new chief, Brian Cummings, is “adamant that he’s not going to tolerate this kind of stuff.”

    As of 7 p.m. EDT on Sept. 23, 2011, the orbit of UARS was 90 miles by 95 miles (145 km by 150 km). Re-entry is expected between 11 p.m. Friday, Sept. 23, and 3 a.m., Sept. 24, Eastern Daylight Time (3 a.m. to 7 a.m. GMT). During that time period, the satellite will be passing over Canada, Africa and Australia, as well as vast areas of the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian oceans. The risk to public safety is very remote.
