27. Today's the last day to be legal

15. My unattended testing will be delayed this afternoon.

The client is testing. I'll be the one unattending.

17. Well...

The IRS administers a data repository for States to exchange motor fuel tax related information. 100% of the ExTOLE data originates from a particular State, and is available to other States under disclosure agreements between States. This system focuses on the exchange of state information not related to IRS tax matters. No IRS return information is contained within the ExTOLE application. For additional information on the type of information housed for States, refer to ExTOLE.

28. I posted this a while ago: Characteristics of Red Sprites

Oddly, it got zero repiles. I'm still baffled.

Characteristics of Red Sprites

Sprites are massive but weak luminous flashes that appear directly above an active thunderstorm system and are coincident with cloud-to-ground or intracloud lightning strokes. Their spatial structures range from small single or multiple vertically elongated spots, to spots with faint extrusions above and below, to bright groupings which extend from the cloud tops to altitudes up to about 95 km. Sprites are predominantly red. The brightest region lies in the altitude range 65-75 km, above which there is often a faint red glow or wispy structure that extends to about 90 km. Below the bright red region, blue tendril-like filamentary structures often extend downward to as low as 40 km. Sprites rarely appear singly, usually occurring in clusters of two, three or more. Some of the very large events, such as shown in Figure 1, seem to be tightly packed clusters of many individual sprites. Other events are more loosely packed and may extend across horizontal distances of 50 km or more and occupy atmospheric volumes in excess of 10,000 cubic km.

High speed photometer measurements show that the duration of sprites is only a few ms. Current evidence strongly suggests that sprites preferentially occur in decaying portions of thunderstorms and are correlated with large positive cloud-to-ground lightning strokes. The optical intensity of sprite clusters, estimated by comparison with tabulated stellar intensities, is comparable to a moderately bright auroral arc...

If sprites are only barely detectable by the unaided human eye, in intensified television images obtained from the ground and from aircraft they appear as dazzlingly complex structures that assume a variety of forms.

Early research reports for these events referred to them by a variety of names, including "upward lightning," "upward discharges," "cloud-to-stratosphere discharges," and "cloud-to-ionosphere discharges." Now they are simply referred to as sprites, a whimsical term that evokes a sense of their fleeting nature, while at the same time remaining nonjudgemental about physical processes that have yet to be determined.

33. I'm reading this:

"Statistical regression usually occurs when participants are selected on the basis of their extremely high or extremely low scores. It refers to the tendency of participants who score highest on a test to score lower on a second, similar test, and of subjects who score lowest on a test to score higher on a second, similar test. The tendency is for scores to regress, or move, toward a mean or expected score."

37. I eat the same thing every day...

It contains noodles, hamburger, goat cheese, spaghetti sauce. I've been eating this for over 4 years.

Last year I got a personal chef. So sometimes I eat different things :)
