Today is Thursday, July 17, the 200th day of 2025
with 167 to follow.

The moon is waning. Morning stars are Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus. Evening stars are Mars, Mercury, Neptune and Saturn.


On this date in history:



In 1918, Russian Czar Nicholas II and his family were killed by Bolsheviks who had held them captive for two months. Though the whereabouts of their bodies was unknown for years, later DNA tests confirmed their identities and they were buried together in a St. Petersburg cathedral in 1998.

In 1936, the Spanish Civil War began with an army revolt led by Gen. Francisco Franco.

In 1955, Arco, Idaho, a town of 1,300 people, became the first community in the world to receive all its light and power from atomic energy.

In 1955, Disneyland opened in Anaheim, Calif.

In 1975, three U.S. and two Soviet spacemen linked their orbiting Apollo and Soyuz spacecraft for historic handshakes 140 miles above Earth.

In 1981, 114 people were killed and 200 injured in the collapse of two suspended walkways at the Hyatt Regency hotel in Kansas City, Mo.

In 1996, TWA Flight 800, New York to Paris, crashed off the Long Island coast, killing all 230 people aboard the Boeing 747.

In 2006, an earthquake under the Indian Ocean triggered a tsunami that struck the Indonesian island of Java, killing about 700 people.

In 2007, a Brazilian Airbus airliner skidded off a runway as it landed at Sao Paulo's Congonhas Airport and crashed into a building. Authorities placed the death toll at 200.

In 2014, Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 carrying 298 people was shot down over rebel-controlled territory in eastern Ukraine near the Russian border. All aboard the Boeing 777 were killed, including dozens of children.

In 2018, Dallas Wings center Liz Cambage broke the WNBA's single-game record for points scored -- 53 -- in a 104-87 win against the New York Liberty in Arlington, Texas.

In 2019, Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman was sentenced to life in U.S. prison for conspiracy to commit murder, drug trafficking and money laundering. The drug kingpin had twice escaped from Mexican prisons.

In 2024, teen midfielder Cavan Sullivan jogged onto the field as a second-half substitute during a Philadelphia Union victory over the New England Revolution. At 14 years, 293 days old, he set a record for the youngest player to appear in an MLS game.

Working on getting someone out to look at my roof, seems that all the rain we've seen this year has taken its toll, as we had a small leak in the corner of the living room yesterday. If the tv had been on at the time, I might not have even noticed. But with everything quiet, I heard the water dripping onto the carpet.

The penis wants what the penis wants.

Also, my phone wanted to change penis to punishment, which isn't weird or concerning at all.

Now pushed back to 1:30, which I sort of expected when he made the appt, since he mentioned having to be at another job a while away before coming to my house.

He didn't spot anything that looked real bad, damage wise. He said it's more likely poor installation of the current roof, because it's missing a drip guard on all sides, which he said was unusual. He did see some wind damage, so naturally, he recommends we file a claim with our insurance. But I'm guessing that's par for the course for any roofer.

I had already made an appt with someone else tomorrow before he got back to me, so I'm gonna keep that one, see what they have to say.
