My new friend might very well

My new friend might very well explain the sudden reduction in squirrel population.  Isn't she (?) beautiful?  I believe it is a red shouldered hawk.  And she looks to be a youngster.

Beautiful picture.  I've never been much of a bird person.  But I loved looking at all kinds of nature photography.

Thanks.

I tried to get outside to get a better shot but as soon as the door cracked she took off.  The wingspan was larger than I expected.  Hope she stays around for squirrel control.  They are so much better at it.

We have a few hawks in the vicinity of the museum. They keep flying away from approaching trains, even if they aren't really a threat.

Happy Labor day to all the USians.  We're having chicken and ribs for dinner.  Done on the grill, of course.  Meat is currently resting comfortably in their marinates.  Dishes are done.  Now to do my laundry.

Oh. Well *glance round einsteinians* I expect you're not alone with this one somehow...

 

Perhaps this will help? :)

X f (x) (times the probability density function of a Heisenberg coherency event expressed in terms of annihilation operators - I think, which is then timesed by itself again, for purposes of reiteration, mainly - and uncertainty too because I might have forgotten this bit...

P(A | B)

edit: or was it this bit E(X | Y) ? * Either way - I'm sure Mike can fix it ;)

Yep. The main reason for timesing by yourself is to be sure that you're there at all. Reduces uncertainty.

Now Heisenberg came up with his famous principle when he was selling home cooked crystal meth on the island of Helgoland. It should have been Lego Land but never mind. He went there to stare into the North Sea. Actually Werner had really, really bad hay fever and had to get off the continent and into clean air. So his brain was full of histamine you see. You know what it's like to concentrate when you have a runny brain nose, that's the histamine making you dopey. It should be called the Histamine Uncertainty Principle ie. will I take an antihistamine or not ??  

{ An anti-histamine is the negative-energy/antimatter version of histamine. If it collides with the Piggy-Wiggy Particle Hogs Boson you get pork that delivers itself to you on a Harley. Na! Only kidding ! It comes on a Norton .... }

as for :

where 

choices are :

(A) - how much you already owe on your credit card.

(B) - how much you wish CitiBank or Amex or Barclays would give you alot of money once in a while instead ( Fight Club rools ).

(C) - what a good chap alpha is & check out his fancy brackets.

(D) - I don't know what n is up to but he seems quite emphatic and well rooted.

(E) - Infinity is really quite loopy you know.

(F) - the 2 , as usual, is just there for show ( and is always bragging about being greater than one ).

(G) - is well, what can I say ? Enigmatic.

(H) - I have no idea what the big munchy symbol in the middle is. Seriously I don't.

Not really. I have to stop touching things. This is due to The Obverse Midas Effect : everything you come into contact with turns to crap. Well not everything. The key exclusion here is things you have already touched, that way uncrapping the crap doesn't get you back again.

Quote:
 * ...which apparently, are not to be confused with one another, one being a conditional probability and the other being a conditional expectation - which I believe,  explains it very well! :)

To be exact : under the conditions of this Universe, you can expect whatever you want but it probably won't happen.

So in summary I have :

- clarified the matter beautifully, and 

- kept to my own post. 

Cheers, Mike.
