I use it a lot for identifying images and it is very good if there’s an exact match but otherwise it lies. And like you say its confident tone is unbearable.
PhotoScan app is good for glare but I don’t know how it would do with plastic sleeves. It also seems to lose detail but maybe that’s my phone. I have the same problem too.
A Christmas tree decorated with blue and green lights and ornaments shaped like anchors and life preservers. There is a white whale on top.
Winterthur has a Moby Dick themed Christmas tree this year!
They're very useful at work though.
I have progressives and I still take them off in the evening unless I'm watching TV or using my laptop. I don't need to see my apartment clearly. I know where everything is.
I’m planning a holiday theater trip so maybe I’ll give the new one a chance.
I don’t remember the show at all honestly. It’s become a running joke that I usually pick the show we see because if that time she picked Chess.
Yeah that doesn't make sense. I saw what must have been the original West End production on a trip to London but I remember nothing about it except the friend I went with HATED it.
116 years ago a bunch of working class women changed the world because they got together and fought for their rights. Their fight is still our fight.

It's about a woman in a love triangle with two assholes who play chess, so it's hard to like the plot. Florence needs to just slap both of them in the head with a chess board.
It's got some good songs though! I enjoy the music and keep going to different productions of it and then not liking it. And yet I keep trying.

I think there were naval engagements but I don't know much about that. And there's a sign in my neighborhood telling you where the Continental army camped. But they just camped.
There was only one battle in Delaware, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_...
list of names including "F Supp"
F Supp is not a person. It's a citation for a law reporter -- Federal Supplement.
I could quote almost every post of this great thread with a fact about Ruza Wenclawska!
Ruza Wenclawska was a member of the Women’s Trade Union League and was one of their organizers for the 1913 New York garment workers strike.
Suffragist from the National Woman's Party picketing the White House in 1917.
The suffragists who picketed the White House in 1917 demanding the passage of the 19th Amendment endured arrest & imprisonment for the cause. Many of them, estranged from their own families because of their commitment to the fight for democracy, relied on each other for support...

Just tried and I'm getting a 504 error.
I want to look at some of the undigitized letters. I should ask them if they’re working on those before I go.
I want to go there sometime to look at the Doris Stevens papers.
One of my elderly relatives reposted a similar one about how he spent millions founding a pet shelter. Maybe it's a combo veterans and pet shelter.
Make dazzle painting great again!
I started to feel better pretty quickly once they stopped the procedure and gave me saline instead. Now I know to stay away from sodium citrate. It's apparently in processed cheese, but hopefully I'm only allergic when it's pumped directly into my bloodstream!
This weekend I found out I'm allergic to sodium citrate. So I am now banned from donating platelets. It's fun to suddenly get itchy and puffed up at the blood donation place.
You are in good company. In 1913 Lucy Burns was arrested and fined $1 for chalking "votes for women" on the sidewalk in front of the White House. www.newspapers.com/article/the-...
I was very excited about her shirt!
One of our new students came into the library wearing a Blondie t-shirt. At first I couldn't remember ever seeing them but then I remembered I saw Blondie, Elvis Costello, Flock of Seagulls, and for some reason Genesis at JFK stadium in 1982. That was a long time ago.
They're filming something at the library today. They have one of those wearable cameras but they don't seem open to my suggestion that we recreate the Broadway Sunset Boulevard walk through the library.
