Charon’s surprising, youthful, and varied terrainRemarkable new details of Pluto’s largest moon Charon are revealed in this image from New Horizons’ Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI), taken late on July 13, 2015 from a distance of 466,000 kilometers. The LORRI image has been combined with color information obtained by New Horizons’ Ralph instrument on July 13.

Sunny but a bit cooler in the shade.

Work steady, I’m making small steps with the issue a French company is having with the WinCE Listener.

I ended up placing two orders on Amazon.com, It was Prime Day today on Amazon.com and I ended up getting one order with a Security Camera from D-Link and a couple of the metal models I’ve wanted for awhile. Then I went crazy since they had a GoPro Hero4 kit for only $499, so for the price of a Hero4 I got a case, 32G microSD card, head strap, two extra batteries and a dual charger, LCD touch bacPac and then a better antenna for the Baofeng radio. I should get all this bounty Friday Evening, in time for the weekend, some pool time and possibly a Brewery this weekend, maybe two.

When home after work and have a little leftover dinner then Brian and I cut the two links of wire I needed for my shortwave antenna the dipole.  I’ve been put together which basically consisted of stripping one side of each of the 30 foot wires and then taking a yellow wire nuts and connecting it to either side of the balun.  The reception is pretty good so I decided to go ahead and meet up with Autumn over at Parma.

By the time I got to Parma I know that Autumn had to be at least one beer ahead of me I went ahead and have a couple more beers and she is well along with some wings. We met up with Rocky and sherry but he left before trivia started to do a disagreement with the name.  Ottoman and I’ve been paired up with the couple on the other side of the corner of the bar. Her name is Tracy and his name is Mike we did OK. we ended up leaving before trivia was over which was a good thing.

Autumn had a knockdown drag out with her 18-year-old son Austin I really feel for her because I know what it’s like. Nikki gave me a whole lot of grief when she was that age. I guess there was a lot of accusing words and probably a lot of harsh words and I’m sure that they wish they hadn’t said half of what they did. The only problem is her parents are a little too open with this child and any kind of Toughlove she wants to try to make happen it’s probably going to be reversed by them.  I also found out that her I think I’m younger sister had been a stripper for a while and networking met her current husband now they are born again Christians.

After a wait of more than 22 hours with no communication, New Horizons “phoned home” precisely on schedule after its flyby of Pluto. The signal was received at 00:52:37 UT | 20:52:37 ET | 17:52:37 PT. As planned, New Horizons returned no images with the Phone Home downlink. But every bit of telemetry indicated that the flyby executed successfully. The thrusters used as much fuel as expected; no “autonomy rules” were called, indicating that the spacecraft computer did not reset; and most importantly, the solid state data recorders are now crammed full of data.

Mostly clear and hot all day.  The sky was hazy at first and then it became more cloudy as I got up into Georgia.

The drive was mostly uneventful, the onLy thing that happened wa a slow down just after Macon and before the 675 split.  Mostly due to construction I think.  Hit a dunk in donuts just before I got onto I-95 and picked up my free donut that i got from the Manatee baseball game.  Got an on as well

Got back to Atlanta about 5pm and by that time Brian had already had several trips for Nicki and Duran already done.  He is a great uncle. Gives and gives, I hope she actually appreciates that.

Stopped in at hooters after I got home to Lawrenceville.  Had an order of shrimp and a few Hopsecutioners.  Did a few more tests and passed them while there and drinking.  Does that mean I really know the stuff? flirted a little bit with Morgan, and only problem is I don’t usually remember her name.

Stopped in at this shroom for a Monday night draft kilt.  Nice folks there sat there and chatted with them. Madison was working the floor and Erin was working the bar, a couple very young gals hostessing and cleaning glasses.

Bought the study guide for the General Ham test but I don’t think I’ll be doing very well on that test, but I think I’ve got the technician test covered.
