Sounds like a prisoner revolt has broken out at Evin Prison. That’s a major news story.

I don’t remember all the details, but wasn’t there some big prison break from Evin right around the time of the Iranian Revolution?

We were out of country by then, but in early ‘79 there was a prison break. My Dad may have still been there at the time, but I’m not sure. We were evaced in December of 78.

Charles, when I click on the number (re: #xx) in a quoted or replied-to post, I’m suddenly seeing a cut off rectangle, about half the width of a post. It can be scrolled up and down, but it cuts off the right half of the post. It happens in both portrait and landscape. (On my phone — safari— it only happens in landscape.) Happens in both chrome and safari. Quitting and restarting didn’t help.

It looks like if the replied-to post is text only, the text wraps, but any graphics are chopped.

Congrats to the Phillies. Winning that first game set the tone. I believe Philly was the last defending champ to make it back to the World Series in 2009. The additional rounds, and baseball’s random nature, are why we have had 8 different champions since 2014.

I’ve suggested squeezing him out at SpaceX, a tall order since it is not publicly traded, but not impossible, especially if the squeezers have outside (ie governmental) help.

Btw, a yokel on Twitter denounced the idea of throwing a business’s founder out of his own creation as “pure communism.” This told me that the poster has no idea how communism works or any conception of how business works, since examples abound of founders getting the boot from their own companies.
One of my favorites is Alexander de Seversky, a Russian aristocrat, fighter ace and aviation promoter who stayed in the US after the Revolution and founded Seversky aircraft on Long Island. Fellow emigre Alexander Kartveli (a Georgian) served as chief designer.
By 1939, the company was losing money and, worse, Seversky had sold 20 A8V fighters to Japan for use in the war against China. This wasn’t illegal at the time but it made Seversky extremely unpopular with the press and Congress, which was bound to hurt the bottom line even further. His board of directors fired him as president and re-organized as Republic Aircraft. Kartveli went on to design the P-47 Thunderbolt of World War II fame, the F-84 Thunderjet of the Korean era, and the Vietnam era F-105 Thunderchief. He ended his career as a consultant on the A-10 Thunderbolt II, better known as the Warthog and still in service.
Seversky and Karveli died 3 weeks apart in 1974.

I never understood hiring Girardi, but that’s me.
He was absolutely useless. Just cashing a check.
Eagles made some very smart moves once Wentz failed his first character check.
Flyers have a lot to do, and I think sometime in February Torts and Gritty have at it at center ice…
And the Sixers have a true star with Joel and they just might sort it out.

It’s been a very hard month here. It’s been an unbelievable 6 months since my husband died this past Monday and what would have been his 56th birthday was yesterday. I’ve been a huge mess with endless problems to solve and my anxiety is off the charts. Since the memorial in June, the calls and visits have stopped, pretty much everyone has forgotten about us. My phone hasn’t rang with a call from a friend since August 25. I’m not sure how I feel about all that.

I need some good news. Something happy to focus on, even if it’s just for a little bit. Whatcha Got? I will take anything from the teeniest little thing that brought a smile to a full fledged miracle or anything in between.

The Flyers are picked to do just as they did the last 2 years, which is nothing.
I love hockey. The game. The ice and the speed and skill. If the NHL truly wanted to open up the game they would go Olympic Rink size, but then some of the checking will fall off.
Torts is a not bad coach. Love him or hate him, he is honest. And he cares.
Philly has lived off the ghost of the Broad Street Bullies for too long. It’s gone.
It’s dead, Jim.
No Big Bad Bruins.
No Flying Frenchmen.
No. No. No.
Carolina has a fine coach in Brindy.
And an intelligent organization.
Hurricanes have been contenders the last few years but that choke last year against the Rangers really hurt.
Hockey is my sport. I actually started to play open hockey in my 40’s. No checking but collisions aplenty. Paybacks, intentional or just for kicks…
I still want to skate, but I would die if I hit the ice wrong.
I cannot skate because I’m not hallucinating.
I do miss that rush.
Clean sheet of ice, sharp skates and a frozen puck and good stick…..Heaven.

Well we finally pulled the trigger and got a “new to us” vehicle. We bought a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. Trading in the 2012 Corolla. Corolla has been a good car, but the wife wanted something all wheel drive for winter. Actually got more for the tradein than I expected.

All kinds of bells and whistles on the new vehicle. We got a pretty good deal since we were paying cash. We pick it up Thursday. Wife is really excited. But she won’t be able to drive it until we get the apparatus installed for here to use her left foot for the accelerator.

re: #64 A Mom Anon

It’s been a very hard month here. It’s been an unbelievable 6 months since my husband died this past Monday and what would have been his 56th birthday was yesterday. I’ve been a huge mess with endless problems to solve and my anxiety is off the charts. Since the memorial in June, the calls and visits have stopped, pretty much everyone has forgotten about us. My phone hasn’t rang with a call from a friend since August 25. I’m not sure how I feel about all that.

I need some good news. Something happy to focus on, even if it’s just for a little bit. Whatcha Got? I will take anything from the teeniest little thing that brought a smile to a full fledged miracle or anything in between.

Hmm. Happy things? Can’t remember if I’ve mentioned it here, but my daughter-in-law is pregnant with their first. A boy. Due in March.

And as Tarhellion said, we care about you here.

re: #76 TarHellion

Long said that hockey is the best game to watch in person. You can see the line shifts, the way the puck is moved about. Took my wife to a Hurricanes game when we first started dating. Got seats near the boards. Within a few minutes, guys were coming at us and crashing into the boards. My wife was absolutely giddy with excitement.

The best seat in the house is just off to the left or right of the visiting goalie and behind the glass enough so if you stood up you would not need a ride to the hospital.
Seen Flyers/Hershey Bears games since 1970.
I always told folks if you were never at a hockey game 3 rows off the ice, you have no idea.
Now the nets are up. But still….
I was at a Philly Flyers game back at the Spectrum in the early 80’s.
It was warmups. Slap shots on the goalie from the blue line.
Just as the PA instructed the crowd to be aware of pucks flying into the stands I watched a NY Ranger crank a slapper into the second level and smack a guy in the head.
Went down like rain.
Security immediately was there and he was rocked.
We figured he got a jacket, jersey, stick, puck and a 4 pack of tix.
Free stitches too.

Early 90s I went to half the home games of the Pittsburgh Penguins. Lemieux-era and saw the hockey machine Badger Bob put together win two Stanley Cups. (Along with a couple of killer trades that cemented the teams depth and among others brought in Ron Francis as the #2 Center.)

Our seats were last row of the balcony on one end. Arguably as far from the ice as you could be. However, you could view almost the entire ice and if you were a student of the game could easily follow game flow, success of line changes, and whether a particular player might be dogging a shift. And with no one behind us we could stand up if we wanted. (And pound on the roof of the Civic Arena to make noise.)

I also saw a slap shot from the blue line deflected and reach the front rows of that balcony a few times.

Ice hockey is one of my favorite sports to watch and I agree it is one of the better games to go see in person.

LIVE: Can Liz Truss outlast a lettuce?

The music is awful and scratchy, but I was amused that the lettuce has been dressed up with a wig and googly eyes.

Seriously, though, Liz Truss is not in a good place:

Senior Tories hold talks to discuss ousting Liz Truss to ‘rescue’ party

As new chancellor Jeremy Hunt rips up prime minister’s economic plans, Conservatives plot route to replace her

theguardian.com

It was explained to me that there’s hardly no way to force the Tories to call snap elections before the end of term in late 2024. As of right now, the polling is so terrible for the Tories that every single one of them would lose their seats in Parliament. They wouldn’t even be a minority party. They’d be a nonexistent party, coming in after the LibDems, the Scottish Nationalists, Plaid Cymru and that Protestant Northern Ireland party that escapes my memory. Obviously, Labour would be the very majority party.

So of course the Tory leadership is trying to figure out a way to get a PM in who isn’t going to fuck up quite as badly as Truss has. As of right now, she would have to serve another 80 days to pass up the guy who was the shortest serving prime minister, a guy named George Canning, who died in office in 1827.

This was my initial attraction (at onset of puberty) to basketball. Shorts, tank tops, you can see the expressions on their faces, the sweat dripping down their backs, the flex of their ass and thighs when they jump…

Didn’t realize until a few years ago that hockey shifts are quite short. Maybe 25-35 seconds of clock time per shift. But you think about how draining skating forward and backward while in full pads must be. Let alone gathering speed to play offense or defense

And the game flow is such that you have to hustle and play at full speed the entire shift in order to get where you need to be. Which is why there is all the strategy involved in timing shifts, preventing an opponent’s tired line from switching off if you can, and making the most of opportunities which can occur at the high speed the game moves in.

I was never a good skater, but my brother took it up in his late 20s. I think he finally had to give up the weekly games* he played in a few years ago. So the team game I played personally was usually basketball.**

* - A step above shinny. Goalies had full gear, but everyone else chipped in to pay their ice fees. Did not wear full pads, and some local rules regarding slap shots and trying to limit contact and avoid injuries.

** - Have a particular dislike of professional basketball since the pro game has eschewed serious defense in order to general flamboyant scoring. And the obvious long-term advantages of 3-point shooting has made watching mediocre NBA teams play each other tedious. Much prefer watching college or high school play since there seems to be much more attention paid to defense, controlled passing, and teamwork.

ADD: apparently LGF has also autocorrected me: the bad closer (though I can see it on the Preview/Edit) was < slash em >

ADD 2. Never mind: problem is on MY keyboard

Yes. Iconic character.

“I’m Harriet Jones.”
Everyone, including the Daleks: “Yes, we know.”

” Harriet Jones, MP for Flydale North.”
“Yes, we know who you are.”

“Harriet Jones, Prime Minister.”
“Yes, we know who you are.”

“Harriet Jones, Former Prime Minister.”
“YES … WE … KNOW … WHO … YOU … ARE. EX-TER-MI-NATE!”

A buddy of mine swore Denis Savard was the greatest pro athlete ever. He was a Chicago native and just a bit of a hockey nut.

Denis Savard rejuvenated the Blackhawks.

I think I went to 4-5 Flyers games while in Philadelphia. At least one fight in the stands at every one. Flyer fans starting in on someone wearing a jersey of the opposing team and it inevitably escalating to a fight and security throwing people out.

I saw that very rarely, if at all, attending Penguins games in Pittsburgh. There’d be generally good natured verbal heckling back and forth, but I never saw it escalate to people throwing stuff at each other or fighting.

Phils are on to the NL Championship game.
Iggles are undefeated (F the boys)
Flyers are 2-0
Sixers are in the wings.
And my daughter just texted me this. Some Phils are at xfinity live throwing a party.

Meanwhile Astros Mariners are 16th innings and scoreless.
Every single pitch is a grenade.

re: #126 FFL (GOP Delenda Est)

** - Have a particular dislike of professional basketball since the pro game has eschewed serious defense in order to general flamboyant scoring. And the obvious long-term advantages of 3-point shooting has made watching mediocre NBA teams play each other tedious. Much prefer watching college or high school play since there seems to be much more attention paid to defense, controlled passing, and teamwork.

Agree. College basketball was the sport I liked to watch for men, and volleyball for women. It’s a GAME rather than a scoring exercise. Run down and pop. Run down and pop. Boring!

I think 1979 was also the year the Bruins broke Le Jinx that the Montreal Canadiens had on them since forever. The back story is hilarious: The B’s in their team bus were trying to get out of Hartford. The Canadiens’ team bus was in the way.

Reportedly, O’Reilly broke into the Habs bus to start it and move it out of the way.

re: #71 Eventual Carrion

Well we finally pulled the trigger and got a “new to us” vehicle. We bought a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. Trading in the 2012 Corolla. Corolla has been a good car, but the wife wanted something all wheel drive for winter. Actually got more for the tradein than I expected.

All kinds of bells and whistles on the new vehicle. We got a pretty good deal since we were paying cash. We pick it up Thursday. Wife is really excited. But she won’t be able to drive it until we get the apparatus installed for here to use her left foot for the accelerator.

Good vehicle.

You may already know this, but when Subaru maintenance schedule recommends replacing the timing belts, do it. Break a belt & you’ll have $$valves banging $$pistons.

Know a couple of folk who decided this was not necessary.

I was looking at Subarus until someone offered me a deal on an Escape Hybrid I couldn’t refuse.
