Overnight Open Thread

Teh Suckitude: Part Deux

Yep this ONT is gonna suck too.

So tonight's theme is a valuable life lesson for all the kids and young-ish morons.

Things Are Getting Worse or Better (Depending on Where You Are)
Believe it or not unemployment has gotten better in TN, MI, and MN. But VA and ND and SD are the places to be.

China Getting Pushy in the Pacific
So they're encroaching on Philippines waters and attempting to ram their boats. Meanwhile they're also intruding into Vietnamese and Japanese waters. Why? Well mostly for establishing rights to undersea resources. And because they can.

Also North Korea is now jamming GPS signals. Good times, good times.

Why Are Climate Monitoring Satellites Suddenly Failing?
And is it related to nuclear wessels?

Tonight's Educational Disney Film
If decadence and/or icky lady stuff bother you, then HEY LOOK A SQUIRREL!!!

Famous and Brainy - Celebrities With Graduate Degrees
Granted some of these are public policy degrees but even those guarantee at least nearly average intelligence.

How Well Do You Know Your Knives?
Me - I classify all knives as either stabby or choppy. But you can take the Knife Quiz and possibly avoid a faux pas at the next dismemberment shindig.

The World's Youngest Grandmother
At age 23.

Mum-of-two Rifca Stanescu was 12 when she had her first child Maria.

She urged the girl not to follow her example - but Maria gave birth to son Ion while only 11.

Rifca had married jewellery seller Ionel Stanescu when she was 11 and he was 13.

They eloped because Rifca feared her father wanted her to marry another village lad in Investi, Romania.

I don't know how things work in Romania but based on her picture they must age in dog years there.

Playground Breakthrough!
Slide + Merry-go-round - Liability Lawyers = FUN.

The Yahoo AoSHQ group. You know the way.
