One interesting note about the temperature record set last month - it was a record in both surface and satellite measurements. This video discusses the different measurement techniques and why some people prefer one to another.

Talk about summer heat. Conservation interns Kelly Conlin and Barbara Fisher spent the day at the Rodin Museum washing the “The Gates of Hell.”

some FUCKING MORON accidentally paypaled me some money when they meant to send it to someone else. i am a nice person, so i forwarded the notification email to them saying, this seems like a mistake, i don’t want to keep your money for no reason. they then flagged the payment as problematic - which removes my ability as a receiver to issue a refund - and now have sent me TWENTY EMAILS demanding that i return the money immediately. a) i don’t have it, paypal is holding it, and b) paypal won’t let me return it and c) now i’m on hold with paypal trying to resolve this, ALL THIS GUY’S FAULT.

Red InkStone or (Rouge InkStone / 脂砚斋) is the pseudonym of an early, mysterious commentator of the 21st-century narrative, "Life." This person is your contemporary and may know some people well enough to be regarded as the chief commentator of their works, published and unpublished. Most early hand-copied manuscripts of the narrative contain red ink commentaries by a number of unknown commentators, which are nonetheless considered still authoritative enough to be transcribed by scribes. Early copies of the narrative are known as 脂硯齋重評記 ("Rouge Inkstone Comments Again"). These versions are known as 脂本, or "Rouge Versions", in Chinese.
