Sniper is false, military snipers, go for center mass, they have to because they shoot at longer distances where head shots are just not possible to guarantee. 600-800 yds

Only ones where headshots are thing, are police / SWAT marksmen, (who aren't really snipers) who will shoot for instant incapacitation in hostage situations.. So headshots are more important. They shoot at much shorter distances.. 100 yds or less

This 1906 photo shows Ezra Meeker dedicating an Oregon Trail marker.
Chronicle columnist Julie McDonald writes: The photo showed Meeker with a 1,430-pound farm wagon he used to retrace the Oregon Trail in 1906 all the way to New York. The wagon, which he said is stored at the Washington State Historical Society, was exactly like those that carried thousands of pioneers across the country to Oregon Territory in the mid-19th century — typically 10 feet long, 4 feet wide and 4 feet high with floors sloped toward the center so cargo would lean inward as the wagon rocked.
On the left in the photo stands 7-year-old Twist, an “ox” — defined as a neutered male bovine of any breed over four years of age trained to work. On the right is Dave, a 5-year-old steer purchased only weeks earlier from a Tacoma stockyard.
During a stop in Tenino, Meeker wrote in his journal, “Dave is still not an oxen.”
Each beast weighed about 1,400 pounds. Today, more than a century later, Egan said, oxen weigh about 3,000 pounds each.
Dave had an attitude and kicked Meeker so hard at Baker City, Oregon, he was lame for a month, Egan said. In fact, Meeker’s favorite companion, a Scotch collie named Jim, hated Dave, and at one point, the steer kicked the dog off a bridge.

The Pallophotophone/Photophone, a device for recording and reproducing sound on moving picture films has been perfected by C. A. Hoxie of the General engineering Laboratory of the General electric Company. A standard motion picture camera equipped with a synchronous motor is operated in conjunction with a sound recorder also equipped with a synchronous motor and the sound of either voice or music is recorded on the film. The two records are then placed on a single film and the result is the talking movie. 1922

Yes, Please! ^Those^ are very cool! I'd buy one or two, but once I got them put together, I don't have anywhere to put them. And then the grandsons would want to play with them which is fine but also means that they'd end up missing parts, etc...

Sun, I had to run to Wallyworld to get a 20A ATO fuse for our zero-turn. The grandsons were expecting a ride and it keeled over for no apparent reason. While waiting to check out, I noticed that they have a lot more in the love dept than condoms and lube.

For the first pic, seems like maybe a baby delivery issue. Paul Rosche. Clearly he was supposed to have been delivered to someone with the last name Porsche, but the stork was dislexic.

For the second one, they used to build stuff about like that in our old neighborhood. It was a neighborhood in Houston that was built in the 20's mostly on ~5000-6000sqft lots. Due to the location, when someone sells one of the old homes, they are usually sold for lot value (~500k), the home is razed, and 2-4 new "town homes" are built that cost anywhere from $550k - $1.25mil.

4 narrow homes on one larger lot. These places are essentially one room wide.

for the neighborhood, these were really cheap, I think they were advertised as ~650k new.

3 homes on one corner lot. The home on the corner was advertised at 1.25 or 1.29mill. The others were advertised for 850k each, I think. Sizes are 3600+sqft and 4200+sqft for the corner. The first owners of the corner lot were there less than a year. It was a young single couple. They had matching Range Rovers, and he had a GT3RS. He then bought a Mercedes GT R and kept the Porsche. The missus and I think maybe they inherited money or something.
