Skall köpa bubbelplast på Clas Ohlson för att kunna slå in prydnadssaker med. Soligt och isigt i Kungsträdgården. Rester av julbelysning och julprydnader.

Lyssnar på Robert Green hos Rick Rubin. Robert pratade om hur all kreativitet är sprungen ett slags ångest av att inte förstå, att inte begripa något, och en drivkraft att försöka lista ut det. Rick kallar det upphetsning. Robert kallar det ångest. Två olika synsätt på samma situation.

Läser om japansk naturreligion i Robert Holloways bok. Japanerna hade liksom ingen gud, de var helt tagna med naturresurserna på sin egen ö, skönheten i Fiji-berget. Hur vi alla är en del av samma kraft. Detta blandades sedan med buddhismen när kineserna invaderade.

Skandinaver hade gudar som reflekterade deras våldsamma situation, men också gudar som förklarade väderlekarna, de dramatiska. Även grekerna hade gudsberättelser som utspelade sig i samma takt som årstiderna. Hon som fick sjunka ner i Hades i underjorden under vintern, dömd till detta av någon anledning, bara för att sedan få återvända till våren.

Vår önskan att få saker förklarat har spelat en så stor roll i mänsklighetens historia. Vi har alltid varit mer intresserade av mönster, av berättelser som hänger ihop, snarare än fakta.

Episode 139: The Ferengi Are All My Sons

TNG: "Firstborn" and "Bloodlines"

It's a rough one here on SSHB this week. First up, it's an Alexander episode with "Firstborn", featuring a highlight in the form of a Quark cameo. After that, Picard has to save his illegitimate son from DaiMon Bok's latest idiot plan for jerks in "Bloodlines". Not gonna lie, LOTS of padding this episode...

Also this week: Jake has a pencil, Klingon Ren Faire, and Rick Berman.

DHL deploys 5,000 more Locus AMRs

DHL Supply Chain has expanded its global partnership with Locus Robotics and is deploying 5,000 more autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) across multiple sites. This is one of the largest AMR deals for the industry so far. 

“An idea is only a good idea if it can scale,” Oscar de Bok, Chief Executive Officer at DHL Supply Chain, said. “The flexibility and scalability of the Locus solution has been instrumental in helping us meet the evolving demands of the e-commerce landscape and leveraging cutting-edge technology to optimize our operations and deliver an even better experience for our customers.”

Locus’ AMRs will be deployed across DHL’s global network of warehouses and distribution centers. The expanded LocusBot fleet will provide DHL with automation technology that aims to optimize its supply chain operations and improve worker productivity, order accuracy, speed and efficiency. 

DHL has now surpassed more than 250 million units picked using the LocusOne system across is global sites. This deployment is expected to be fully integrated into DHL’s operation by the end of the year. 

“We are thrilled to be working in an expanded capacity with DHL Supply Chain to bring our industry-leading robotics technology to their global network,” Rick Faulk, CEO of Locus Robotics, said. “As the robotics industry continues to consolidate, Locus Robotics has emerged as the clear leader in the market, and we are poised for further significant growth. Our innovative technology and commitment to customer success have set us apart. With our expanding product offerings and growing customer base, Locus Robotics is well positioned to capitalize on the tremendous opportunities ahead.”

In November 2022, Locus brought in $117 million in funding for its AMRs. The Series F funding round was led by Goldman Sachs Asset Management and G2 Venture Partners.

Locus’ range of AMRs is made up of Origin, the company’s flagship AMR that can operate for 14 hours on a single charge and has a payload capacity of 80 lbs, Vector, an AMR with a 600 lb payload capacity, and Max, the company’s heaviest capacity AMR with a 3,000 lb payload limit.

Locus acquired Waypoint Robotics in 2021, another AMR company whose portfolio of heavier capacity AMRs complemented Locus’. The Vector and the Max were originally Waypoint robots before the acquisition.

dear diary,

yes it’s been a fucking while, and i apologize. to say i’ve been busy for the past 4 months would be an understatement. i’ll bring y’all up to speed real quick. and please forgive the spelling errors, it’s currently 3am.

june - pride month baby <3 got my second covid shot, it was hell. i went and visited my sister in georgia and it was amazing. i always forget how much i love her, considering she’s my best friend. spoke to my mom about moving to georgia(we’d been talking about it before), and she said she didn’t know. a little bit tough considering that we would have to know before the end of summer. hung out with my sister. we both caught each other up to speed with our trauma. it was a fun bonding moment. got hooked on wattpad. i’d prefer not to discuss the details if it’s okay with you.

july - pride month over :( i went back to california(where i lived), talked to my mom about moving, again. got a non-response, again. asked her about he multiple men she was seeing. she denied it, again. towards the end of the month, my mother finally decided that we could move. so i had to register my self for school because my mother is incapable of being an actual mother for one fucking second. started packing up the house and saying goodbye to my friends. it wasn’t as hard as you’d think.

august - moved to georgia two days before school started. it was stressful. lived at my not step-dad’s house for a while until my mom decided to show up. made some new friends. pretended to miss my old ones. rocked some pretty fan-fucking-tastic outfits to school. cried everyday at school for a week over fucking geometry. moved to a different geometry class and decided that my new teacher might be a pedophile, still uncertain. unpacked like two things. determined that my house may be haunted, even though i don’t believe in ghosts. my cats were loud as fuck all the time, which was fun to try and sleep through.

september - still haven’t unpacked. still iffy on the friends department, but we’ve made progress. became a teacher’s pet on accident in first period. decided that my geometry teacher is totally a perv. found out that my ap teacher is hilarious. my theatre teacher is pregnant(congrats but also ew children). got asked to homecoming and turned him down(he’s just not my type, ahem women). made a few more friends towards the end of the month. had two periods, idk what’s going on with that. it was my mom’s birthday, happy birthday ig. got stressed over my mother’s lack of mothering.

october thus far - got a dress for homecoming(it’s on saturday, i’ll update y’all hopefully). befriended my sister’s friends, they’re really funny. decided that my house it totally haunted. my dad’s in town, which totally isn’t stressful in the slightest. considered suicide a little bit, but nothing too bad. read a real sad book. and another. the second made me consider suicide some more. decided that i’d really fucking love to move out and i hate being a minor. still haven’t unpacked. and now i’m writing this nonsense.

all in all it’s been very tiring and now i wanna cry all the time. i’ll write to y’all later, hopefully, although who knows anymore.

xoxo m

p.s.

i figured i’d give some recommendations on books, movies, tv shows, and music to listen, watch, and read because you only live once

books - they both die at the end, all the bright places, felix ever after, black flamingo, not your perfect mexican daughter, girl mans up, red white and royal blue, yes no maybe so, all this time, good girl’s guide to murder, normal, i wish you all the best, carrie, the upside of unrequited, everything everything, five feet apart, before i fall, the hate u give, all of percy jackson and whatever rick decided to do, a series of unfortunate events, and the secret series

movies - studio ghibli(all of it), 13 going on 30, legally blonde, clueless, the bee movie, hairspray, the lorax, jumanji(1995), jennifer’s body, corpse bride, freaky, craft, and to the bone

tv shows - maid, criminal minds, glee, prodigal son, the umbrella academy, on my block, your lie in april(anime), only murders in the building, you, miraculous ladybug, scooby doo mystery incorporated, the good place, death note(anime), dash and lily, 13 reasons why, julie and the phantoms, reply 1988, 18 again, weigh-lifting fairy kim bok-joo, erased(anime), wanda-vision, 

music - used to be l.o.v.e, pedestrian at best, the red means i love you, i wanna be your slave, hey lover, laughing on the outside, tom’s diner, join us for a bite, lemons - demo, murder party, all of mother mother, the living tombstone as a whole, and marina bc she’s a damn queen

Mick Fleetwood & Friends hyllar Peter Green och Fleetwood Mac’s tidiga år Den 30 april släpper Mick Fleetwood & Friends en hyllningskonsert till Peter Green och Fleetwood Mac’s tidiga musik. Först ut är låten The Green Manalishi (With The Two-Pronged Crown).

Den första låten som släpps från kommande hyllningsalbum är The Green Manalishi (With The Two Pronged Crown). Det är en oslipad version som framförs tillsammans med ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons och Metallica’s Kirk Hammet. Här kan man höra Kirk Hammett spela på Peter Green’s ikoniska 1959 Les Paul gitarr, tillsammans med Mick Fleedwood, Dave Bronze, John Lang, Andy Fairweather Low, Ricky Peterson and Rick Vito.

Den 25 februari 2020, precis innan pandemin och lockdown i England, samlades artister och världsmusiker för att fira grundaren av Fleetwood Mac, Peter Green.

På scen medverkade Neil Finn, Noel Gallagher, Billy Gibbons, David Gilmour, Kirk Hammett, John Mayall, Christine McVie, Jeremy Spencer, Zak Starkey, Pete Townshend, Steven Tyler och Bill Wyman.

Producent är ingen mindre än den legendariska Glyn John och som ljudtekniker självaste Mick Fleetwood tillsammans med Dave Bronze, Jonny Lang, Andy Fairweather Low, Ricky Peterson och Rick Vito.

”Konserten är en hyllning till de tidigare bluesdagarna där allt började. Det är viktigt att komma ihåg vilken stor inverkan Peter Green och de tidiga Fleetwood Mac har för musikvärlden. Peter var min största mentor och det är en heder för mig att få hylla hans otroliga talang. Dessutom att få stå på scenen med så många av artisterna som Peter har inspirerat genom åren och delar min stora respekt för denna begåvade musiker.”, säger Mick Fleetwood

Mick Fleetwood & Friends - Celebrate The Music Of Peter Green And The Early Years Of Fleetwood Mac kommer att finns tillgänglig i följande format: - Box - 4LP vinyl, Blu-Ray, dubbel-CD med 44-sidig inbunden bok med anteckningar från Mick Fleetwood samanställd av Anthony Bozzas, citat från medverkande artister, fantastiska bilder från konserten, repet och behind the scenes. - Dubbel-CD och Blu-Ray med 44-sidig inbunden bok med anteckningar från Mick Fleetwood samanställd av Anthony Bozzas, citat från medverkande artister, fantastiska bilder från konserten, repet och behind the scenes. - 4LP vinyl Gatefold med 20-sidig mediabok med anteckningar från Mick Fleetwood samanställd av Anthony Bozzas, citat från medverkande artister, fantastiska bilder från konserten, repet och behind the scenes.

“Rhythm is one of the most powerful of pleasures, and when we feel a pleasurable rhythm we hope it will continue,” – Mary Oliver

Fastnar i den långa artikeln om Steinbecks dagbok. Så oerhört fascinerande hans tvivel och frustrationer. Hoppet han klänger fast vid, tron på processen när känslorna sviker.

“I’ll get the book done if I just set one day’s work in front of the last day’s work. That’s the way it comes out. And that’s the only way it does.”

Det är nästan som en handbok i att skriva en bok. Något att ta med sig den dagen man väl sätter sig ner och bestämmer sig för att skriva den där boken.

Hittar även en länk till en artikel om Mary Olivers “A Poetry Handbook”. Sparar den länken. Men blir så jävla peppad på att beställa boken. Mary Oliver slår an en ton som funnits i mig i hela mitt liv. Det är som en famn att landa i. Tänk att Mary Oliver finns!

Morgon! Upp! Svårt att vakna men inte svårt att genomföra morgonen, ingen alkohol står ivägen, ingen bakfylla, att laga falukorv och potatis går som en glans. 20 pushups 10 squats Stretchar.

Vad är det som jag väntar med just nu som kan smälla nästa vecka? Det är en fråga att ställa sig.

Kan inte släppa den där texten om John Steinbecks dagboksanteckningar. Hur han ständigt försöker peppa sig själv. Först tvivel, sedan pepp. Man känner igen sig. Ibland tappar han greppet, åker på rodeo och dricker för mycket whiskey. Får ingen skrivet dagen efter och bannar sig själv. Dagen därpå mår han bättre, har momentum. Man känner igen sig.

FIskade upp en gammal intervju med Maria Popova på Marginalian, av Krista Tippet såklart. Dessutom två gamla intervjuer med Popova på Tim Ferriss podd, väldigt tidigt dessutom. Självklart korsas alla cirklar. Popova oerhört vältalig, uppvuxen i Bulgarien, ur en familj som prånglats av ateismens och kommunismens 1900-tal. Dock, hon hade hittat böcker från hennes gammelfarfar, som smugglat in böcker på engelska och tyska, lärt sig språket den vägen. Hon träffade aldrig gammelfarfar, men läser hans anteckningar i marginalen, känner en kontakt. Marginalian. Antar att det är därifrån namnet kommer. De pratar om kunskap som något man tar ägarskap av. Det handlar inte bara om information, det handlar om att förstå, ta till sig, begripa. De uppehåller sig länge vid den här frågan, jag kan inte återge den ordentligt, men det fastnar. Popova är irriterad på att folk inte vill lägga TIDEN det krävs på att förskansa sig kunskapen, de vill bara läsa key takeaways, listicles, ta genvägar. Men det är ju tiden och vägen dit som cementerar kunskapen. Kanske är det just vägen till kunskap som ÄR kunskap. Ungefär som när Nick Cave pratar om att sökandet efter gud är gud. Eller som när Rick Rubin pratar om att kreativitet inte är en produkt, utan en handling. Jag gillar det.

This is the way.

One day you finally knew what you had to do, and began

190425 [Top Media] RECAP #4WheeledRestaurant-USA EP.02 - Shinhwa’s Eric: Do You Know The Mandu Maker?

Hello, It's your content manager here!

Eric, who was in yesterday’s second episode, earned another nickname Mandu-Ric! Shall we find out how he became Mandu-Ric?

At the beautiful Hermosa Beach Bok-food in operation! The undefeated Jjajangmyeon legend continues in America. Boom.

How many Jjajangmyeon they sold so far?

Wow 48 bowls, unbelievable! Of course, it’s thanks to all those who were willing to give Bok-food and its foreign food a try right?

Bok-food business CLOSE

How much did Bok-food earn today? Drum-roll, $455! 510,000 KRW!

The Bok-food’s staffs in good mood at the Hermosa Beach Pier

From Chef Lee Yeon-bok’s words: “We just need mandu ingredients” It becomes obvious what the next menu will be...

Korean soul food mandu (dumpling)!

Everything is done by hand. A master’s homemade mandu!

Selected for the second day’s menu along with Jjagyebok

The staffs are back after shopping for mandu ingredients! Onion-Ric is tightly carrying a big bag of onions

Now that the shopping is done, Master’s homemade mandu, Shall we make it right now?

First, tenderize the meat! Eric X Heo Kyung Hwan meat duo

It’s harder than it looks. Chef Lee Yeon-bok to the rescue!

After the sensei’s demonstration, the students’ turn to try A slow pace at first, Then Eric gets the rhythm right away!

“I’m the Legend” (t/n: play on Shinhwa)

23 minutes in, Eric is still calm. He’s showing a true professionalism! b!

So the second day’s menu! The dumplings are named, Bok-mandu!

AND.. Ric-mandu…!

Now, back to some serious cooking !

Just strength! All about strength!

Mixing after mixing of ingredients ! Heo Kyung-hwan getting impatient.. arggghh

Even John Park gives it a furry stir! Scared Eric gets his head out of the way! (cute)

Only after making dumplings themselves they realize why he skipped mandu… no..

How hard it was. I can feel it ㅠㅠ Shall we wrap the dumplings now?

Chef Lee Yeon-bok, teaching how to wrap mandu!

Eric’s heart from afar:  I want to learn, I want to learn

Eric, who’s been observing hard, eventually gets next to Lee Yeon-bok on tiptoes! A Lee Yeon-bok admirer, model student Eric!

Eric is serious after a diligent learning! Disciple Eric is full of passion

The mandu talent, Mandu-Ric’s first dumplings is a success!

Finished dumplings go into the giant steamer Eric’s real reaction after trying the freshly cooked dumpling.jpg

The Bok-food employees steamed a total of 360 dumplings over a period of 5 hours and 30 minutes! Claps

But the next day, it finally starts raining ㅠ.ㅠ Rainy day = perfect for food truck business to go bad

That’s why Eric is worrisome about the weather while drying his hair!

Nonetheless, getting ready for the second run! Grand Park is today’s spot!

Also, today’s menu _ fried rice and Bok-mandu!

Dish washing, soy sauce, shrimp boiling plus all other chores are Mandu-Ric’s jobs!

As Yeon-bok sensei starts chopping the onion,. Student-Rick immediately brings out a bowl and puts it next to it. + cleaning up afterwards!

Despite the rain, as soon as they open for business a surge of orders comes flooding in.

Now they are saying they might be running short of dumplings

Unfortunately as they feared, dumpling sells out within 30 minutes from the opening of business

Eventually they have to stop taking orders

Will Bok-food family overcome this obstacle. How do we get through this?

You will not miss next week’s episode right? A special, special event for those who want more!

If 600 hearts is reached Will release an unreleased Eric photo the next day, Eric time!(t/n: 2:16pm) Period: ~ 2019.4.27 12pm Please join us for the event and the next week episode!
