Today is Thursday, Sept. 28, the 271st day of 2023.
There are 94 days left in the year.



Today’s Highlight in History:

On Sept. 28, 1928, Scottish medical researcher Alexander Fleming discovered penicillin, the first effective antibiotic.

On this date:

In 1781, American forces in the Revolutionary War, backed by a French fleet, began their successful siege of Yorktown, Virginia.

In 1841, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow completed his poem “Excelsior.”

In 1850, flogging was abolished as a form of punishment in the U.S. Navy.

In 1920, eight members of the Chicago White Sox were indicted for allegedly throwing the 1919 World Series against the Cincinnati Reds. (All were acquitted at trial, but all eight were banned from the game for life.)


In 1924, three U.S. Army planes landed in Seattle, having completed the first round-the-world trip by air in 175 days.

In 1939, during World War II, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union signed a treaty calling for the partitioning of Poland, which the two countries had invaded.

In 1958, voters in the African country of Guinea overwhelmingly favored independence from France.

In 1962, a federal appeals court found Mississippi Gov. Ross Barnett in civil contempt for blocking the admission of James Meredith, a Black student, to the University of Mississippi.

In 1995, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and PLO chairman Yasser Arafat signed an accord at the White House ending Israel’s military occupation of West Bank cities and laying the foundation for a Palestinian state.

In 2000, capping a 12-year battle, the government approved use of the abortion pill RU-486.

In 2018, reversing course, President Donald Trump agreed to the demands of Democrats for a deeper FBI investigation of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

In 2019, voters in Afghanistan went to the polls to elect a president for the fourth time since a U.S.-led coalition ousted the Taliban regime in 2001; the vote was marred by violence, Taliban threats and widespread allegations of mismanagement.

In 2020, the worldwide death toll from the coronavirus pandemic topped 1 million, according to a count by Johns Hopkins University.

In 2021, testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, called the 20-year war in Afghanistan a “strategic failure,” and said he had favored keeping several thousand troops in the country to prevent a collapse of the U.S.-backed government and a rapid takeover by the Taliban.

In 2022, Hurricane Ian barreled ashore in southwestern Florida as a massive Category 4 storm. About 2.5 million people were ordered to evacuate before the storm hit the coast with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph (241 kph).

It went ok. I'm not sure what I was expecting. This HR person is a bit flaky. She really just repeats a lot of the same information they already emailed me. Next week's interview will be tough. Looks like I'll be meeting with 4 people straight through from 11 to 4 via Zoom.  HR still needs to confirm if it's Tuesday or Thursday. Either way, I have a lot of prep to do before then.

I'll be leaving you to your jam for a while. I've gotta do some prep for a call a little later. I'll join you again before you know it.
Go get 'em!
It went ok. I'm not sure what I was expecting. This HR person is a bit flaky. She really just repeats a lot of the same information they already emailed me. Next week's interview will be tough. Looks like I'll be meeting with 4 people straight through from 11 to 4 via Zoom.  HR still needs to confirm if it's Tuesday or Thursday. Either way, I have a lot of prep to do before then.
Yikes
She called me ten minutes late but had a hard stop at the end of our "30 minutes". She was obviously reading from a script and anytime she deviated from it, she would fill the monologue with uhhs and umms. I spoke to two others from the same company and they were quite pleasant to interview with, which is why I'm hanging in there.

Sounds like they made sure she didn't give the first impression for their company.

TD is forgiven for not realizing St. Vincent is a birthday girl that qualifies for Page 3. ;-)

FLAN: 2 cans of evaporated milk, 2 cans of sweet condensed milk, 10 eggs, 1T vanilla and the secret is 2 8oz cream cheese. blend it all together and pour into a pan with caramelized sugar on the bottom. Bake in a water bath for one hour at 350.

I only use one can each of evaporated and condensed. I also add about 10 oz. of regular milk instead. I don't add the cream cheese because I find it unnecessary, there's enough calories in it already. Otherwise the process is the same.

Edit: I definitely have had flan made with cream cheese and it tastes very good but it's very heavy. Also, my flan pan only fits about 65 fl. oz. and probably only serves about 10. Oh yeah, and 6 eggs are enough for my flan.

That was a case where I knew what the odd one was, so suspected a group, and did a little Googling and found the others.

We wound up getting a break from rain for only one day, yesterday. It's currently pouring and there were scattered showers throughout the day. We're expecting more of the same tomorrow and Saturday. I don't know how people deal with this being the norm but it bums me the fuck out.

Had to turn my watering system back on as we haven't had anything for a week now and nothing in the near future.
