Reflection:
Another day of rain. This is so unusual but greatly appreciated. There
was a gentle rain most of the night that continued until almost noon. Now it’s just
partly cloudy.
AI remains unregulated. Trump has the solution: rename AI to Super Intelligence
and that will solve the issues. Everyone recognizes that this is simply a distraction.
Regulation is needed and it is needed now.
Go Fund Me has always been questionable. Many who donate don’t
realize that the company charges 2.9% + 30¢ for each transaction. They also
have strict guidelines. Recently a fund was set up for an 82-year-old man hauling
heavy lost airline luggage back to the owner, to support his wife of 57 years
with cancer. The fund received $750,000. Then the company returned all donations
because the fund said a neighbor was doing the fund, but no such neighbor existed
and the daughter had made the video, used a fake neighbor…as suggested by an AI
app to be more successful. Now the lady still has cancer, the family is still
broke, and many wonder even more about Go Fund Me.
Historical events
Cool to know:
Fall leaf colors are
present year-round.
The red, orange and
yellow pigments only show once chlorophyll
— the chemical that makes leaves green — breaks down in autumn. Check out these
fall quotes
for a little inspiration.

Seen from above, the
Kasilof River winds like a ribbon of turquoise through Alaska"s Kenai
Peninsula in the United States. The vivid blue water comes from glacial silt
carried downstream from Tustumena Lake, one of the largest freshwater lakes in
the state. Flowing about 17 miles before emptying into Cook Inlet, the river is
shorter than its famous neighbour, the Kenai, but no less remarkable.
Interesting Space
Facts:
The Sun makes a full
rotation once every 25 – 35 days.
So for us on Earth, one
full rotation equals one full day. However, our gargantuan sun takes 25 – 35
Earth days to make one full rotation!
