During World War II, Hollywood actress Hedy Lamarr co-invented a frequency-hopping spread-spectrum technology with composer George Antheil to prevent the jamming of radio-guided torpedoes.

Would you agree with this statement? 😂

​Apparently, "cleaning the garage" is just code for an adult scavenger hunt where you accomplish absolutely nothing but have a great time doing it. 🛠️📦

The Machiavellian leader?

Project 39 continues with Henry V - Act Three, Scene One.

Henry V is often referred to as a Machiavellian figure. This is because the previous plays Henry IV, parts 1 and 2 show a scheming and calculating intelligence; pretending to be wasting his youth, but secretly preparing to be an excellent king. But Machiavelli’s main argument, that it is better for a leader to be feared than loved, doesn’t seem to apply to Henry. In his many rousing speeches, one feels a desire to be loved by his troops rather than feared.

Dr Samuel Johnson believed that the second line of this famous speech was missing. He thought a step of logic had been missed in between ‘once more unto the breach’ and ‘or close the wall up with our English dead.’ The editor of the Arden series, T. W. Craik agrees. He thinks it doesn’t make sense for Henry to rally the troops to attack the wall or die trying. T. W. Craik suggests the missing line could have been something like:

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more,
And either enter in, and win the town,
Or close the wall up with our English dead.

There is no textual evidence to support this. It is mere speculation. And most readers and audiences have intuited the meaning of these lines without the need for anything extra.

Henry V is played by Morgan Watkins

#sierraclub What was the first backpacking stove you used? Any fond or not so find memories of using it.

My first stove was a brass Optimus Svea. The key broke at the head and was replaced by a nickel and homemade rivets. Other than that it was in great condition.
To start the stove, gasoline was removed from the tank and poured into a small channel along the base of the jet. It was counterintuitive to light your stove on fire to get the fuel pressurized.
Once the stove got going well, it sounded like a 747 spooling up on the test ramp. Enough heat to melt your aluminum pots if not careful. Stability? 2nd degree burns were part of the norm
I still have this little wonder and fire it up on occasion to show the nephews how crazy we were back in the 70s.

@SallyMayweather It's a good example of what happens when productive people are are forced to seek permission to produce from people who produce nothing.

You can crash your yard's mosquito population without spraying a single chemical with a Mosquito Bucket of Doom.

Fill a 5-gallon bucket about two-thirds with water. Drop in a handful of grass clippings, leaves, or hay. Let it sit for a day, then drop in a Bti dunk (also called Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, sold at any hardware store as "mosquito dunks," about $10 for six).

Mosquitoes are powerfully attracted to fermenting water and will lay their eggs in your bucket. Bti is a naturally occurring soil bacterium that produces a toxin that kills mosquito, blackfly, and fungus gnat larvae only.

This method doesn't harm bees, butterflies, fireflies, fish, frogs, birds, pets, or people. BTI dunks are EPA-approved for organic use and safe in animal water troughs and birdbaths.

One dunk lasts about 30 days. Top off the water as it evaporates. Cover with 1/2-in Mesh Hardware Cloth to prevent animals from getting trapped and put the bucket somewhere shady where pets and kids won't get into it.

The bucket becomes a mosquito magnet and a dead end. Compare that to fogging the entire yard with pyrethroids, which kills every insect in it, including the predators that eat mosquitoes.

Doug Tallamy's Homegrown National Park has been running the "Mosquito Bucket Challenge" since 2021. The more buckets in a neighborhood, the bigger the dent. One bucket per yard is a great start.

When Henry Ford arrived in England, he asked for the cheapest room in town.

The clerk at the counter was confused.

Standing in front of him was one of the richest and most famous men in the world the founder of Ford Motor Company.

Yet his coat looked old.
His suitcase was plain.
And instead of luxury, he simply asked:

“Where’s the most economical place to stay?”

The clerk stared at him for a moment before asking carefully:

“Excuse me… are you Henry Ford?”

Ford nodded.

Still shocked, the clerk said:

“Your son stays in the finest hotels and wears expensive suits.

But you’re asking for the cheapest room… wearing an old coat.

Why?”

Ford smiled and replied:

“All I need is a place to sleep.

Wherever I go, I’m still Henry Ford.”

Then he touched his coat and added:

“This belonged to my father. It keeps me warm. That’s enough.”

And then came the line that stayed with people:

“My son still worries too much about what others think.

I learned long ago that you don’t pay for approval.

I didn’t become rich by spending money.

I became rich by understanding what matters and what doesn’t.”

That’s the difference between looking wealthy and understanding wealth.

Real confidence doesn’t need luxury to prove itself.

Because your value isn’t your hotel room.
Or your clothes.
Or the opinions of strangers.

You are who you are wherever you are.
