Not cold? Texas and Arizona both have NHL teams, Florida has two, and California has three. Do you live on the surface of the sun or Hell or something?

Look, let's not discuss the relevant merits and wealth of the regions where it is played, but ice hockey is a fight where sport occasionally breaks out on the field.

I have nothing against places without hockey teams, but I lived in Atlanta for too long listening to people justifying letting the Thrashers move away with "Its too hot for hockey".

Here's a Bad rear end Picture I stole from the Space Thread:

Powered Descent posted:

In addition to the ones already mentioned, STS-51F did an Abort To Orbit (ATO) due to sensor failures in the main engines, and ended up in a slightly lower orbit than planned. But since all the actual mission objectives only required them to be "in space" and not "in this particular orbit", everything after that went well. In a similar vein, STS-93 had a number of little things go wrong with the main engines during ascent (any one of which might easily have gotten not-so-little and ruined their whole day), again resulting in a slightly lower orbit than intended.

Depending on how high you want to put the bar on "partial mission failure", there's any number of things that didn't go quite as planned. Probably the worst ones would be the failure of the space-tether experiments on STS-46 and STS-75, and the two communications satellites that were deployed during STS-41B... but both of their kick motors failed, stranding them in a useless low orbit. And of course the Space Toilet broke from time to time, which didn't really impact mission objectives but had a significant impact on crew comfort.

But the tale of those two satellites with the failed kick motors has a happy ending. STS-51A went and retrieved both of them from their useless orbit and returned them to Earth. Both satellites were then refurbished, sold to new owners, and re-launched into useful service!

That's the back story of this famous image:



When the kick motors failed, the original owners were compensated by their insurance companies and were no longer considered owners of the hardware. So at the time the sats were retrieved, NASA knew that these would be used spaceships looking for new owners.

A few weeks ago I went to a renaissance festival where a local clown/magician was a regular performer. He always started off his act by simply doing a 3-ball cascade like that while casually walking around and talking to the audience, before reminding them that even though this is the simplest juggling move it takes hundreds of hours of practice to be able to do it so easily while talking like it's no big deal.

Catches him with a right handed shot to the side of his head when he ducks down, right by his temple. He had a lot of leverage on that blow.

Here's an old mugshot of a vicious career criminal

François Bertillon, caught nibbling a basket of pears,17 October 1893

He wasn't actually arrested, his father Alphonse Bertillon was the police officer who standardized the 'front and side' mugshots and this was a fun practice shot

No his crime was that he nibbled every single loving pear in the entire basket instead of just eating one like a normal kid god dammit Francois

I get where you're going, but other than it no longer being in fashion, the style of portraiture + the legal climate around the handling of dead bodies makes the posed body, positioned with family members type of photo impossible to produce in the US.
