PSA - There is a new apple on the market. It is call "Autumn Glory". If you find them in your local market, try one. They do not disappoint.
ai7 is a meteorological term with a complicated definition. I had never heard it either.
Bea, we love the honey crisp apples. They also, do not disappoint.
I would like that. Haven't seen it in the supermarket. Usually buy them at Costco
Looove honey crisp!!
we also love honeycrisp. don't think I've seen autumn glory.
I love them too, but these are even better. They are sweeter than Honeycrisps.
my husband said there is some kind of apple recall right now and he wasn't sure if the bag he just bought was in it or not.

The world needs more Gretas, annoyance and all
Thye 16n yr old who crossed tyhe tlanti in a racing yacht
IDK who Greta is
found them strange words
I found them strange too ;)
which re is it for the re9?
the environmental activist
she's every place
middle R
Thunberg
'morning, folks
sorry I need stats for the 8 pls?
ok, I haven't really followed her but my husband thinks she is really annoying
morning welk
i agree with you, ruby. i find her irritating and much like a puppet on a string
no offense meant, but it probably says more about people who are annoyed about what she is demanding than it says about her
thank you. Now I feel less like an old crab
is greta a blonde?
I need the stats for the 8 too, please
hi hamp
champ
I'd like to know the environmental impact of her worod tour by plane
Good morning!
if I were 16 instead of 50, looking at how much carbon we are dumping into our air and thinking about trying to live in the world of 2060 or 2070, I'd be annoying the crap out of everyone who would listen as well
Everyone is allowed to speak, however, how about their credentials. Like reading an article in readers digest about medicine and then thinking it is definitive.
an awful lot of people need to be a lot more annoyed a great deal more often.
After watching Grey's Anatomy, I know how to do a heart transplant LOL
RUBY
stats for the 8 pls?
I'll call you when I need one/
but by all means, let's drag the messenger. we don't have time to make teenagers into politicians or phDs
pe8/55
CHAMP!
i'M a Grey's doctor too! :)
i learn a lot of medical related things from watch the good doctor
got it ty dan
:)
They've named a miniscule, just-discovered, roach after her
well that was easy (pe8)
If it is on TV or internet, it must be true
I think if you are going to become a public spokesperson, it's not just about the message, but how it is delivered. Presentation is a big part of the message.
i thought so too hokie:)
I Don't see crossing the Atlantic in a racing yacht as a hardship
Roaches are the worst. We have HUGE ones here. Hokie...apparently I'm an idiot, but just got the pe8. Thanks for the nudge.
it's a deceptively long word
I should've extended when I found the 6. DUH.
hokie and i have some big bugs that i would consider cockroaches but no idea what they really ae
are
My sister is phobic about roaches but I'm phobic about Greta
I didn't either Champ. I'm right there in the DUH corner with you.
I didn't have the 6 either but was pretty easy to see once I started looking at pe.
I could use another "T" in this grid, near the bottom N. So many words left hanging over there...
In Miami there were waterbugs that looked like roaches on steroids
I think it's easy for many of us to ignore climate change and the environment - most of us are 'of a certain age,' and not likely to live long enough to see the true consequences that our generation and the ones before have wrought. I hope that young people like Greta help to ensure my granddaughter, due in May next year, actually has a world to live and breathe in. I think, Ruby, with all due respect, you're sounding shortsighted and selfish, though I'm sure that's not your intent.
focusing on Greta herself is easy. focusing on what has to change and on what scale and how quickly is hard
i thought predone was a word oh well
No no, I agree with heer issues, but her manner of delivering the messag is more likely to turn people off than on
who or what is Greta?
thanks Matty.
what LOL
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greta_Th\nunberg
Just because she has an important message doesn't mean a person can't be annoyed with her. Back in the day, Celine Dion got on my last nerve, because she was EVERYWHERE. I think she' has a beautiful voice, but after a while I couldn't take another second of it!
ruby asked a question, does anyone else find greta annoying. she didn't question climage change.
Thd point is that serious discussions require vetted information, not emotion and young people repeating what they have heard. It's not about the children, it is about facts peresnted logically when some gravitas.
Thank you Welki, I leave a very small environmental impact
<-- what bubba said
I find it more annoying that the anti-straw movement was based on a 9 year old's science fair project with unverified info.
yay bubba
A few things to remember about Greta: She's 16 and she's on the autistic spectrum with a few other issues. She does amazingly well, and is more articulate than most 16 year olds I know. Her style is unique, I grant you.
how about dear Scott Pruit?
Doesn't matter her age, it is about what she knows. Why not have some cute puppy barking at an iceberg.
I'd cross the Atlantic that way in a heartbeat
It's easy to dismiss the message by attacking the messenger, how dare she be young and effectively galvanize millions of young people while her elders drive about in SUVs doing nothing. As for what Bubba said, Greta is working from vetted science, that is part of the power of her message. She isn't posting memes, she's working from scientific consensus data.
Please remember that Greta is delivering her message in a foreign language so her intonation makes it hard for native English speakers. I am sure I read somewhere that she is autistic which probably doesn't help her. She will find it hard to connect with her audience.
I prefer donating to endangered species organizations
it is not about what she knows, it is about what the science has already demonstrated and we are ignoring. If it takes someone like Greta to get people to look at the science themselves, that's great. Dragging her because she doesn't have the gravitas or the phd is avoidance
Credentials, not cuteness. Most valid scidntific journals rfequire that the information be juried. A group of credentialed experts decide if the information is valid, reporducible, no emotion, no cuteness, no BS
All we can do is vote against Trump and other nay-sayers about environmental issues
Her audience is too Young to vote
well, the anti-vax movement has proved that people refuse to listen to actual science when presented to them
I need to jump in here and say, I haven't seen this lively a discussion ever in the chat. This is great!
All the more reason for those of us who can to listen.
I just felt like stirring the pot for once as I'm mostly pathetic and whining
The scientific consensus overwhelming confirms the existence of man-made climate change. She has researched the existing research extensively. To compare: I'm not an MD, but I 'believe' in vaccines, appropriate use of antibiotics and modern medicines based on what I know from research more qualified groups and individuals. She is absolutely the ideal spokesperson for fighting to reverse man made climate change, as it is her generation and the ones that come after who are most threatened by it.
That is what Greta is doing!
The reason she is invited to speak to the UN and other forums is that many of the scientists agree with her - people won't listen to the scientists but the scientists listen to her as she delivers their message
At no point has she claimed to be producing the science or generating the findings, but presenting those findings from the credentialed scientific journals to a wider, younger and more at risk audience. Someone has to drag the science out of the closet where a few hundred read the results and bang the drum and raise the alarms because we're too happy to ignore it as long as the status quo seems to be keeping us happy
WE listen and try our best, but do you think the denierts will have their minds changed?
But ruby, does that fact that some close minded people will look after their own interests first and insist on denying climate change mean that no-one should speak up?
Not while there is money to be made. However they will feel differently if the Oxygen runs out
Because some people won't change their minds, doesn't mean that no minds can be changed, or affected. And, of course, it isn't just about changing the minds of the deniers, but spurring the apathetic (rather than the deeply stupid or self serving) to action, however small
I used to be a denier. I have come full circle in the last 12 years. So yes, people can learn, listen and change.
The deniers in power will, at some point, be looking down the barrel of a sudden cohort of voters who will have marched and gathered and been activated by the likes of a Greta to understand the perils of climate change and that's when change happens at the ballot box
What Welki said. Ruby did not challenge the message. She said she found the messenger annoying.
iF ONLY THAT DOG COULD TALK;;;;;
LOL
Trump has the right idea, stay in the house, get info from Fox and only speak to liketminded crowds
Do you think he has ever read a book?
i don't think he
I doubt he's even read his own books, let alone any others. I wonder how much he can actually read.
s read the one's he is supposed to have written
He has enough money to pay others to read books
it doesn't cost that much to read Dick and Jane though
*Waits for the Dick jokes
ruru! I'm happy to see you. I've been worried about you and origami and my Calif cousins
Dick escaped impeachment and Jane was against the war in Vietnam
Dick is a serious matter
i'm ok here in Napa.. ruby.. it was pretty bad for the Sonoma side of the mountains
Jane said "no big deal about dick"
thank you though for your concern.. i had a lot of house guests evactuated from the fires
glad you're ok ru

ty hokie
i was here earlier--in time to see Rasrapopolus--but want to say thanks to dan2dit,jaxx,bonkler,gramma, others--thank god Greta and others are crying out--I will not live to see the fuller effect of extinction , warming, etc, but this is a more than grave situation--my own kids are too scared to talk about it, and grandkids, but they all know, and yes, whatever the straw argument is, it is true--we are trading our planet for plastic and travel--a super highway destroyed our rich -in-fertile land farm--I write constantly about this and support the scientists and my dad ws writing about the scende before he died in the ninetys--we KNOW but we adults aren't doing the hard hard things that will have to be done, but at this point we have to get leaders who will lead--whether 16 or 70.

Just went to our neighborhood FB page, and someone posted a pic of a car going through people's mailboxes. They've called the police. This was in the light of day! Thieves are so bold.
Obviously not the CAR going through the mail...the person driving it. Just taking mail out of mailboxes.
Glad I live on a cul-de-sac. No ones comes to my house unless they live here.
lol, I was confused why you were calling them a thief if they were driving through mailboxes. seemed more like a vandal.
That's how it was posted too. :)
maybe it was a drive-thru thief(L)
lol
dang, these p's are a pain

Funny, I never think of it getting cold in California.
Nights are cold here
Trying to let the sun warm it up some
We are into the days of short sun here. I hate this time of year.

i prefer summer
Your Niners are having a great year. Must be a fun football season for you.
It is finally. Although some key injuries may now hurt the season
They have sucked for so long. I could only watch 49% of the games then ðŸ˜
If we could get the damn Patriots out of the running, the would be the only undefeated team.
I home the ravens beat them today
Hope
The niners won’t continue to be undefeated. They play five tough teams now in a row
Panthers are actually winning
That didn't last long

Hello all - flip is now 8am my time
You're a Melbournian, right Rose? My hubby is from Melbourne - came here to study, preferred the climate and the women (woman!) so stayed. Where are you in Melbourne?
dofith, i live in the foothills of the dandenong ranges. Upper Ferntree Gully. i have been around this area since 1979.
Yes, ursh - I love when I visit son in CapeTown, waking up to a new grid. Great start time in S.A. Congrats on rugby, by the way.Very thrilled.
one couldn't say i have lived a wandering life...loll except for when i am jetting overseas.
my first hubby and i visited Perth in 1974. i loved it. we stayed in Freo and every night would go to the wharf and buy the prawns straight off the boats as they came in.
ty dofith - was the best Saturday for years - truly sport and music unite people of all colours
I've been there a few times, Rose - so beautiful. I wish my man liked Melbourne more - much easier for travel, and I think our climate sucks, especially as a gardener.
where in melbourne is he from? and where are you in WA?
ursh, my lad and his family watched with friends. My 3 SAffa grandchildren were all decked out in their 'bok shirts etc. He said they were all quite emotional - such a significant win. What a great post-match speech your captain made, too.
Rose, we live half the week in Perth and the other half near the beach in Falcon, just south of Mandurah. He lived in East Ivanhoe.
now why does Mandurah ring a bell? is/was it on the way to the dancing hoses stud?
Ivanhoe is such a gracious suburb these days. along with Kew. so many beautiful old buildings there.
Dancing hoses? I'd like to see that! The dancing horses are east of Perth (El Cabalo?), we're south. Shark territory.
lol... my nails need cutting... horses of course.
Wish my hoses would dance in this damned dry climate. But no, I have to carry them.
bbl
okay, we drove down to Albany via Pemberton and came back up the coast via Margaret River.
ttfn dofith
