Artemis 1 Invincible, Eddie Vedder …

Launch Scrubbed September 3 2022.

The second attempt to launch the new heavy lifter taking the O’Ryan lunar system on a test mission around the Moon and back to a hotter entry back into the Earth’s atmosphere and safely to the Earth again was scrubbed today. Saturday September 3rd 2022’s scrub came from a 2 to 3 times higher hydrogen mixture in the ambient air inside the rocket that was considered safe. A four percent level is the limit that the triangle of ignition is considered unlikely. The three elements air hydrogen, oxygen and ignition. Last Mondays launch attempt had the issue being dealt with manually and was focused around a quick disconnect coupling.

NASA believes that an automated process needs to take the place up the manual. It is yet to be determined if the rocket will be rolled back away from the launch pad for work as that decision is out of the control of the managers and in the control of the range managers and when more information is available Monday or Tuesday negotiation will begin for that purpose to mitigate the 25-day barrier that the range people automatically invoke on a scrubbed event.

No one is Invincible.

However enjoy the sense of power of technology and effort that is possible when this creature becomes ready for mission again.

Statement in effect until 2:28 AM Sunday September 4th 2022.

    Rusty the Rooster, a beloved character from CBC’s The Friendly Giant, captivated Canadian children from 1958 to 1985. Known for its gentle approach and low-key atmosphere, the show prioritized imaginative play over overstimulation. Its legacy includes a lengthy run, cultural impact, and a commitment to treating children with dignity and respect.

Highlights

Fires burning are lower than the 20-year average.

Slow start to fires allowed for 250 personal to be loaned to Yukon.

Temperatures 1 to 3° above average, warmer water in Pacific 🌊 going into fall.

First response to lighting strikes effective.

Income range

Aggressive paid athletic performers such as Pro rodeo cowboys according to some sources may make upwards of a million dollars i per annum. The US average cowboy performers make under 40 thousand dollars a year and top out mid $70,000 a year.l

Injuries

Pro rodeos hire clowns to protect performers from excited livestock. However serious injury is a reasonable risk for some to take.

Trends

The romantic lifestyle of the Rodeo cowboy is always in jeopardy and for people to establish themselves on the pro circuit they risk injury and poverty on a long road up. The hundred performances a year is also a cumulative claim on a person’s life.

The local Rodeo Association in Merritt is hosting the local pro Rodeo Sept 3 and 4th “Rodeo is back” is trending.

So can you lose your job over old age probably not if you are an employee and can resonably perform. However Lisa is part entertainer and may have had a personal service contract that can be cancelled and that cancellation negotiated. Ratings may be part of it ( not the hair part, and no brush offs.)

You be the judge 😉 anything can happen. Good luck everyone 🤠.

Stay calm and carry on, this is not legal advise however your opinion matters. Your welcome to use our comment bar.

Nicola Valley Pro Rodeo September Third and Forth 2022, Merritt BC

Long and Strong bring muscle to bear.

One purpose to rate, make no mistake

Win or lose; makes no prose.

But stick it out and champion lore to adore!

Be your best with no pest, that’s the test.

Until your place invites your pose.

Then respect and value will impose, life grand.

And you live forever in the minds of many.

Who knew the game and played beyond penny!
