Climate and Weather

Climate was cool this evening, and got cooler when Oceanside iced crosstown rival El Camino 5-4 in pks to move to the third round in girls division 2 CIF soccer.
Ice age or global warming will have to wait till next week at La Jolla Country Day.
 
Route 1 is closed for a long stretch (about 30 miles) north and south of Big Sur due to several landslides and a highway bridge collapse. Tourists, campers, and Esalen Institute students have been evacuated. Food and medicines are being delivered by helicopter. Caltrans is working on clearing the landslides and installing a temporary footbridge while the wreckage of the highway bridge is being cleared. They have no plans or schedule yet for a replacement bridge. Electric power was out for a while, but has been restored.

Don't get lost. CIF brackets say LJCD will be at Montgomery in DIV semifinal Wednesday. Oceanside is scheduled to play at La Jolla High School.

I got some fake news on the next game, but need to protect my source, as she sleeps with me, and can be dangerous when diminished in any way.
As far as my favorite player, she was a handful, and played her heart out, as did every kid on both teams.
El Camino and Oceanside is a real rivalry.
These teams played three times this year and tied all three.
Oceanside has the benefit of having one of the most talented sophomore keepers in the country, and she made the difference, by saving the first Wildcat attempt in PKs.

I like the Poway-RB games for similar reasons. Palomar League schedule is set up so they alternate the final rivalry game each year, and there is no way to predict the result no matter what the teams' records are that year, One story I always tell when we go to those games is about my younger son's final high school game in the CIF playoffs at RB - where the guy who scored the winning goal for RB became a teammate and roommate at UC Davis.

As for El Camino - we beat them by big margins twice one year when they were included in Palomar League, and my wife made the mistake of driving on their track to deliver the post-game snack, so they locked the gates and turned out the lights on us.

Little kids from Oceanside were jumping up and down on the "Wildcat" logo in the middle of the field after the game.

The best part of high school sports is the community rivalries - an intangible thing that some players who are "too good" to play in high school miss.

Goalie for Oceanside is a real talent, and physical specimen, that could develop into something special.
Pirate soccer is going to be a big part of that development.
 
I may be wrong, but I think I remember espola describing a "slight trigger squeeze" when disassembling.
I wish I could remember the gun he was talking about.

Thats the one.

Looking for this, I found a lot of comments ranging from "how stupid" to "No problem, because the gun would be unloaded by the time you have to squeeze the trigger". I also found reference to a story about a police chief who shot himself while field-stripping one to clean it.

One poster pointed out that the newer model (XDM) does not require the trigger squeeze during disassembly.

Its a good idea to always assume all firearms are loaded, and keep the business end pointed accordingly.
