Crigglestone All Blacks defenders about to prevent an Odsal Sedbergh opponent grounding the ball over their line during a Division Four fixture in amateur rugby league's Yorkshire League. Hosts Odsal, playing in the first half down Odsal Village Green's prodigious north-south slope, led 22-0 after 29 minutes. Torrential rain and high wind, which had eased before kick-off, then returned, affecting adversely the quality of the rugby. Three players, two from Odsal, visited the sin bin during an ill-tempered second half. Odsal ran in seven tries and kicked four conversions as they recorded a third league victory of 2019. Defeat in a third-bottom versus bottom encounter leaves Crigg without a win in any of the nine league games they have played this season.

There's something about a fire on a cool desert night that feels incredibly grounding, and this outdoor fireplace is the perfect centerpiece for the courtyard. The symmetry of the space is very pleasing—two heavy, stacked-stone columns frame the hearth, each one topped with a beautifully carved, swirling capital that adds a touch of classical elegance to the rugged stone. A rustic, dark wood pergola stretches across the top, silhouetted against the deep, indigo-blue night sky.
The fireplace itself is a smooth, pale stucco structure, tapering upward in a clean, geometric shape. The firebox is lit with a warm, bright orange glow, casting a soft, ambient light across the surrounding walls and stone. At the base, two large terracotta pots sit on either side of the hearth, overflowing with bright magenta flowers and dotted with spiky agave plants that nod to the desert landscape. You can just see the edge of the pool at the bottom of the frame, with its blue mosaic tiles and decorative diamond-patterned border catching the warm glow of the firelight. It's a quiet, elegant, and beautifully lit corner of the resort, designed perfectly for an evening of conversation and relaxation under the stars.
I was gardening yesterday, cutting back, pruning and generally tidying up! Glad this challenge wasn't last week!!
Our Daily Challenge ~ Ground or Grounding ....
Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... thanks to you all.
Try or no try?
The grounding is over the line, so it's just a case of who touched first.
The try was disallowed, but they did score 20 secs later.
I'm not sure even a TV slow mo would reveal the real answer. Maybe it was a tie. In that case who gets the benefit of the doubt?

A life boat and other debris are visible January 8, 2013 on the shore line of Sitkalidak Island near where Shell's Kulluk ran aground. The Kulluk, a circular drill barge without its own propulsion, ran aground New Year's Eve in a powerful storm off the coast of Sitkalidak Island in Alaska. It was being towed to Seattle for maintenance before it ran aground. Photo by Greenpeace

Let me start this whining by saying that the customer was right. I messed up.
A while back I bought this Madbean Mangler board to try out their negative-ground Fuzz Face circuit. It makes for a Fuzz Face that isn't picky about 9-volt adapters and that's nice. I'd kind of tossed it aside and I finally decided to stick it in an enclosure and sell it to get it out of here. I had an enclosure I'd drilled for a single-knob Rangemaster circuit that I ended up not liking, so I drilled a second hole, but the holes aren't exactly spaced perfectly. So I was only asking $50 for the pedal. And I said in the description that it was some spare parts I'd thrown together to make more room in my work area.
So the buyer gets the pedal and says the 9-volt jack is dead and the pedal just screeched when he was trying to play through it. And I immediately knew what was wrong. The PCBs in these little PCB builds move around some and it had grounded out against the back of the pots. I suggested that he cut a piece of cardboard the same size as the PCB and slip it between the PCB and the pots, but he had no interest in fixing the problem, so I took the pedal back.
I opened it up today, moved the board around until it wasn't touching the pots anymore and it magically came back to life.
I never think of protecting the back of the pots because I don't usually do PCB builds and that isn't on my mind. But here's the way the kids do it these days, for anyone who might be curious. "Pot Condoms" that slip on over the back of the pot. Keeps the pot from grounding out on the back of the board. Ten seconds to do the job right, but I'm a dinosaur and that job never actually occurred to me.

FORT CARSON, Colo. – Private First Class Hayden Stringer, petroleum supply specialist, 59th Quarter Master Company, 68th Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, 43rd Sustainment Brigade, uses a slide hammer to secure a grounding rod for the Fuel System Supply Point during a training exercise at Fort Carson’s Training Area 12, July 25, 2012. The grounding rod collects static electricity and lessens or prevents damage that would effect the FSSP.

Close-up of the SRB Utility Tunnel, showing grounding wires, to prevent static electricity near the live ordnance (high explosive) of the Range Safety System.
No cell phones or any radio transmission on the MLP.
You can't shut off the SRBs once they're lit, so if the Shuttle loses guidance on ascent and heads towards a populated area, the Range Safety System splits open the SRBs lengthwise, neutralizing their thrust. It's not automatic -- Cape Canaveral Air Force Station pushes the button to activate the RSS.
Three days of left brain analytical work needs some emotive and creative right brain 'mind breaks'. Here's one that we used. . . . some interesting choices amongst the partners. Not everyone wrote a quote on their choices but it allows the mind to drift for a short while - great tool for deep thinking!
This piece is very versatile. It goes well with green and brown! I love it with green.
This necklace is a combination of a Rhyolite pendant, dark Olive Jade rondelles, Green Aventurine, Swarovski crystal pearls, Smoky Quartz (one of my favs!) and carved wood beads. All silver components are Bali silver.
Rhyolite is said to strengthen the soul, body and mind. Green Aventurine is said to be the stone of prosperity, while Smoky Quartz is a grounding stone.
