Non-political things that make you say...WTF?!?! (Welcome To Florida!) **NOT CV RELATED** NO TALKY!

Everybody's dream!

 

Holy Chit!

 

I guess these folks just don't take this seriously.


An ash plume rises from the Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island on May 15, 2018, in Volcano, Hawaii. The U.S. Geological Survey said a recent lowering of the lava lake at the volcano's Halemaumau crater 'has raised the potential for explosive eruptions' at the volcano.

 

I highly suspect the photographer engineered that photo to look worse that it really was, even if it's straight out of camera. Easily done using a long lens.

Its close enough for my blood. Ash knows no bounds.

 

I'm sure he knew those things would kill him, just maybe not so immediately... (and +1 to FL)

Exploding vape pen kills St. Petersburg man; may be first known such death

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. -- An exploding vaping pen killed a 38-year-old man earlier this month at his home, the autopsy shows.

The Pinellas County medical examiner confirmed the detail to 10News on Tuesday. Firefighters had suspected it as the cause of death since first responders were dispatched to the home on a call about a fire Saturday, May 5.

Tallmadge 'Wake' D'Elia was found on the home's second floor in the area of 300 19th Ave. NE.

Injuries to D'Elia's face indicated his e-cigarette exploded, burning 80 percent of his body, according to the medical examiner's report. Two portions of the device were recovered, with the cause of death stated as "projectile wound of head," it reads.

The medical examiner said it was accidental.

D'Elia spent much of his career as a television producer with CNBC before moving to St. Petersburg to freelance.

Exploding e-cigarettes and pens are extremely rare and most explosions center around the battery, but they happen enough to cause concern at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The federal agency recently put out a fact sheet with some safety recommendations:

• Never carry e-cig batteries loose in your pocket, especially where they might come into contact with coins, keys or other metal objects which can cause the battery to short out.
• Never use you phone or tablet charger. Use the charger that originally came with the device.
• Don’t charge your vape device while sleeping or leave it unattended.
• Charge it on a flat surface away from anything that can catch fire. Don’t charge it on your couch or bed.
• Always replace the batteries if they get damaged or wet.
• Always use batteries recommended for your device and don’t mix and match different brands or mix old and new batteries.
• Never alter your device or disable the safety features like fire button locks or vent holes.
• Protect your vape from extreme temperatures by not leaving it in direct sunlight or in a freezing car overnight.

 

Cool little video. Good to hear some "science" that there is still plenty of good out there.

 

OMG. WTF!?

 

Process of natural selection

 

Still a WTF some sick person had to come up with that crap

 

Sometimes just that it was committed to type is WTF enough!

 

Seems I can't browse TW while listening to music, as TW tries to take over.
