During the 49th annual meeting of the American Astronomical Society’s Division for Planetary Sciences, the results were presented of a research that led to the discovery that the planet Mars has a magnetic tail, called magnetotail, twisted by the interaction with the solar wind. A team led by Dr. Gina DiBraccio of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center used data from the MAVEN space probe to discover this phenomenon that according to the researchers is linked to the process known as magnetic reconnection.

'“The arts are a way of forming, shaping and holding in front of your eyes something you feel internally,” says Phil George, chair of Arts Council Wales, who last November called on the government to fund the arts to improve health. “It’s about storytelling,” he says. “It helps people develop a narrative of their lives and relate to their own experience in a new way. I’m convinced from the evidence that investment in the arts for health would pay off. It would be beneficial, not just in terms of wellbeing, but in terms of the pressures and costs that mental illness puts on the system.”'

Marc Gasol put up a monster 34 Points, 14 Rebounds which helped the Grizzlies walk away with a 10 point victory 111-101. The Grizzlies once had a 19 Point led in the 3rd ans Golden State struggled shooting 6-22 during that quarter, and despite only losing by 10 points the Warriors were never really in the game.

Trump's methods of rage-tweeting his opinions on "obstructive Republicans" will inevitably cause some push-back from them against him.

The GOP Congressional Reps and Senators who are staying silent can't all be happy with Trump's methods.
Those refusing to repeal before a viable replacement for the ACA is presented to them, definitely are not.

I think it's more likely that Republicans would support something like the bill below, strengthening the 25th amendment, and giving former presidents the "trigger button" to remove Trump, than instigate impeachment proceedings themselves.

It would give them a "hands off" safety mechanism for effecting Trump's removal while they could avoid the the political fallout of "pushing the impeachment button" personally.

This would give them some hope of campaigning for the vote of people who supported Trump.
Voters who the GOP are still terrified of alienating in their desperation for control.

Write and email your Federal Reps and Senators (Dem or GOP) and tell them they should support this bill, and why!
Email your state reps to give them a nudge too. Email your mayors and city councillors. Multiply your voice through them..

Walked past a Telstra shop today and saw the Pixel 2 on display, so I thought I'd take a look. As with the S8, I really didn't think it was noticeably better than my OnePlus 3T. I know on paper it is, but in the hand, they both feel great. It didn't feel faster or smoother, and the camera didn't jump out at me as being better. Nor did the screen seem any better than I'm used to. (I didn't even notice it was bigger!) There's so much hype around new flagships; I honestly think most is completely unjustified.

Morning drops, and strong sun.

..........................................................................................................
I'm interested in what people see in my pictures.
That's why I also describe my pictures a little, it help me understand what others think and see.
I take pictures of everything, because everything has something that is memorable.
Soon I'll post a new photos. I use here my Sony NEX-5T and Sony Lens 55-210 mm.

The Samsung Galaxy S8 Active will be Sammy's first phone to support T-Mobile's new 600MHz Band?

Back in April, T-Mobile spent nearly $8 billion to win 31MHz of 600MHz low-frequency spectrum that was part of an FCC auction. Also known as Band 71, the low frequency airwaves travel farther and penetrate buildings better than higher frequency spectrum. Only one handset, the LG V30, currently is available with support for Band 71. Now, FCC documents reveal which handset will be the first from Samsung to work with the 600MHz spectrum.

A new version of the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active (SM-G892U) has been certified by the FCC. This is the rugged version of the Samsung Galaxy S8, better able to withstand "the active" lifestyle. Traditionally, the Active has been an AT&T exclusive, although this year it was announced that the device would be available from other carriers.

T-Mobile has yet to announce that the Galaxy S8 Active is on the way, but considering that the FCC certification shows that the new version of the Galaxy S8 Active is compatible with Bands 66 and 71 (the latter being a T-Mobile exclusive in the states), it seems a sure thing to say that the Samsung Galaxy S8 Active will be the first Samsung branded handset offered by T-Mobile, compatible with the 600MHz spectrum that the carrier spent so much money for.

Besides the T-Mobile version of the Galaxy S8 Active, which was first rumored last month, an unlocked model could eventually hit the U.S. The Wi-Fi Alliance certified such a version of the phone last month.

Five Earth-Sized Planets found Orbiting Nearby Star / Oldest known system Ever Seen in Milky Way

Astronomers using data from NASA's Kepler mission have discovered a planetary system of five small planets dating back to when the Milky Way galaxy was a youthful two billion years old.

The tightly packed system, named Kepler-444, is home to five planets that range in size, the smallest comparable to the size of Mercury and the largest to Venus. All five planets orbit their sun-like star in less than ten days, which makes their orbits much closer than Mercury's sweltering 88-day orbit around the sun.

Kepler-444 formed 11.2 billion years ago, when the universe was less than 20 percent its current age. This makes Kepler-444 the oldest known system of terrestrial-size planets, two and a half times older than the Earth.

The Kepler-444 system is approximately 117 light-years away toward the constellation Lyra. A paper reporting this discovery is published in The Astrophysical Journal. http://tinyurl.com/onjam4g

"Gorgeous"

Gorgeous

You should take it as a compliment
That I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk
You should think about the consequence
Of your magnetic field being a little too strong
And I got a boyfriend, he's older than us
He's in the club doing, I don't know what
You're so cool, it makes me hate you so much (I hate you so much)

Whiskey on ice, Sunset and Vine
You've ruined my life, by not being mine

You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
'Cause look at your face
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
But, what can I say?
You're gorgeous

You should take it as a compliment
That I'm talking to everyone here but you...
And you should think about the consequence
Of you touching my hand in the darkened room...
If you've got a girlfriend, I'm jealous of her
But if you're single that's honestly worse
'Cause you're so gorgeous it actually hurts
(Honey, it hurts)

Ocean blue eyes looking in mine
I feel like I might sink and drown and die

You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
'Cause look at your face
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
But what can I say?
You're gorgeous

You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah
There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have
You are so gorgeous it makes me so mad
You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah
There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have
Guess I'll just stumble on home to my cats
Alone, unless you wanna come along, oh!

You're so gorgeous
I can't say anything to your face
'Cause look at your face
And I'm so furious
At you for making me feel this way
But what can I say?
You're gorgeous

You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah
There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have
You are so gorgeous it makes me so mad
You're gorgeous
You make me so happy it turns back to sad, yeah
There's nothing I hate more than what I can't have
You are so gorgeous it makes me so mad
You're gorgeous

The No Media file - Android

The use of NOMEDIA files helps boost performance by excluding folders that do not need to be scanned. For example, a folder that has thousands of songs or images can be excluded. NOMEDIA files can also be used to hide ads featured in free apps when placed in the same directory of the ad. Many Android audio and video players as well as image browsers (Gallery, MP3 Player, Video Player, etc.) recognize NOMEDIA files.

NOTE: NOMEDIA files can be managed by utilities such as StudioKUMA .nomedia Manager or Nomedia


Handy to know.

The article below highlights the growing schism within the Republican party, and uses the example of Steve Bannon to illustrate the disproportionate influence of extremists within it.

The party remains virtually oblivious to what these alt-right extremist white supremacists are doing to it, because they are so desperate for votes.
They repeatedly show a willingness to figuratively make a deal with any devil to convince themselves they're morally superior, and "popular".
Courting the vote of bible-thumpin' evangelicals and far-right groups for some thirty years has resulted in an erosion of their ability to attract the vote of moderates, their traditional support base.

It's the slowest way of shooting their own political legs out from under themselves ever invented.

That lost support base will take a long time to recover, if the GOP ever manage to reclaim their integrity by disconnecting themselves from the alt-right, the former political puppets who now are pulling the strings using Trump's tiny hands and Bannon's big mouth..

From the article linked below:

Most California governors in the 20th century were Republicans and state voters helped elevate a string of GOP candidates to the White House. But the party’s fortunes started to erode in the late 1990s after a series of measures targeting immigrants, which alienated growing segments of the state’s population.

In 2007, then-governor Arnold Schwarzenegger warned party members that the GOP was “dying at the box office” and needed to move to the political center and embrace issues like climate change to appeal to a broader range of voters. In 2011 a state Republican party committee blocked an attempt by moderates to push the state platform toward the center on immigration, abortion, guns and gay rights.

The decline continued. Republicans are now a minor party in many California congressional districts, outnumbered by Democrats and independents. Statewide, Democrats count 3.7m more voters than the GOP.

Political scientist Jack Pitney, who teaches at Claremont McKenna College, said he doubted Bannon’s speech would color the 2018 congressional contests, which remain far off for most voters. More broadly, he said Bannon’s politics would hurt the GOP, including among affluent, well-educated voters who play an important part in county elections.

“Inviting him was a moral and political blunder,” Pitney said.
