Thanks To The Internet and Technology, The Denver Shooting Is Being Put Under A Microscope...

Paid agitators, missing film frames, connecting the dots...Irish

 

Let’s just call this the “Curious Case of the News Photographer Who Becomes Part of the Story she captured on film” — ignore the fact no one uses film anymore.

Prominent in and around the scene of Saturday’s “Patriot Muster” Rally in Denver and the BLM/Antifa counter-protest was a female “photojournalist” wearing a dayglow orange vest with “PRESS” in big black letters.  Her name is Helen Richardson, and she works for the Denver Post.  She was approximately 5 feet from Matthew Dolloff — just to his left — capturing a series of photographs with her camera on “burst” when Dolloff and Lee Keltner engaged in a brief physical confrontation which ended after three seconds with Dolloff drawing a handgun and killing Keltner. 

Lot's more here and lots of twitter links from those combing through all the data <<<

I've Been Checking Every Morning For Other Hungry Strays To Rescue....

 

 

but my hopes have been left empty.

 

 

 

 Maybe when it gets colder out and they need shelter.

 

 

Playing around with the blog this morning... updated

 

 Up at the top I added SCM music player to see how it will perform with the blog.

I haven't played with any of the settings or functions as of yet so this is just a test drive.

Any input will be appreciated.

Enjoy the day.

 

Update, I added a few more to the playlist which is accessed on the right hand of the music banner.

Also, it didn't autoplay for me, please let me know if it does. You can adjust the volume and pause and fast forward with the controls.

 

 

Still Mornin'!

Irish's Soft Side...

 

 Earlier this summer there came a crying at the back door. He was hungry. Ate two cans of food and took off. As time went by his visits became more often, until, like clockwork, he was there, at the door every morning, talking away about being hungry. Two cans of food, hang around a bit, then leave. I could tell when he was heading to the door when the security light turned on. A few weeks ago he started hanging around the barn and would sleep out back in a box we set up for him. 

Monday, we took him to the vet for a complete tune up and now he will have a warm place and food as the days grow colder. They estimate he is around two years old. He purrs loudly and when you lay on the floor he will come over and curl up and let you rub his belly. Today is a beautiful day out. He will be free and if he comes back he is welcome and safe.

  We have had a random sighting of a calico that looks just like him. Maybe a sibling? We have left food further away from the house and have gotten a few glimpses of "her?"

What Would You Tell Your Younger Self?

 

 

Older me... to younger me..@1986.. "Go buy Microsoft, even if you have to beg borrow or steal, oh, and never sell it for a very long time"

Patience and the right stock can lead to incredible results

Microsoft had its IPO on Mar. 13, 1986. The original trading price was $21. The stock split nine times over the years, with two of those being 3-for-2 splits. (A quick note about how splits work: In a typical 2-for-1 split, shareholders receive two shares for every one share they own. The stock price is then adjusted proportionally so that the value of the investment remains the same as before the split.)

If you had bought just one share of Microsoft at the IPO, you would now have 288 shares after all the splits. Those shares would be worth $44,505 at the current stock quote of $154.53.

A $5,000 investment would have purchased 238 shares at the IPO price. After the splits, you would now own 68,544 shares. Those shares would be worth $10,592,104. That's a compound annual return of about 25% per year, or a cumulative return of nearly 211,000%.

The dividends you would be earning every year are just as awesome. Microsoft paid its first quarterly dividend in 2004. The current payout is $0.51 per share each quarter. If you hadn't succumbed to the temptation to cash in your shares too early (as some of us do), you would be earning $34,957 in income every quarter, or $139,830 every year. <<< Read that again. aaaannnnd.. One more time to let it sink in.
