Wow. That works very well.

Thanks for posting that, Bruce.

It got everything from hummingbirds to wild turkeys. It had a bit of trouble with mockingbirds, though. They were in the possibles list, but, pretty far down. It called my wild turkey a turkey vulture, but, the next thing on the list was wild turkey. I assume you're helping it learn when you click "This is my bird.".

"a dictionary of heterodox English, slang and phrase"

The Internet Archive has a complete scan of James Redding Ware’s wonderful 1909 treatise “Passing English of the Victorian era: a dictionary of heterodox English, slang and phrase,” ganked from the University of Toronto’s Robarts library.

Impressive, yes. But my favorite was the young lady ninja at 1:45. And the phase-shifting soccer striker at 1:51 is the most baffling. Excellent video Gravdigr.

Danny Luckett made Louisville Sluggers for 45 years, nine months, and eight days.

Among other notable bats, he made the bat Hank Aaron used to swat homerun number 715. Many of the bats he made are in museums.

xoxoxoBruce · 06-27-2015, 07:05 PM

After it got computerized, I wonder who he made bats for, just certain teams, certain players, special orders?

Google Maps Streetview Player.

Quote:

The google maps streetview player will take in either a starting point and end point, or a provided file of a route and provide a playthrough of the google streetview images that are available.

I tried this out by putting in my house to a friends just over the river in Jersey. Google did it, but instead of just bopping over the Barry bridge, it took the most round about route possible. Across the county, through Philly, then not even the Walt Whitman bridge, but up over the Ben Franklin Bridge, and down the Jersey side. Your mileage may vary.
