The slide in California’s gasoline prices could abruptly end Friday, with prices possibly jumping 30 cents a gallon due to seasonal changes in the state’s refinery operations, a consumer advocacy group predicted Thursday.
“The move marks an end to fire-sale prices on remaining winter stocks” of gasoline, Consumer Watchdog said.
Prices often climb in California this time of year because refineries switch from the winter blend of fuel to the more expensive summer blend required in the state.Also, in the LA Times: SpaceX scrubs rocket launch again, two minutes before launch. This reminds me of NASA in the early days. No link. Not worth the effort.

You Had To Be There
Our 19-month-old granddaughter helped with the circuit but when it came time to to photograph it, she wanted to run the camera. Needless to say there were too many things to keep track of, but all in all, I think we did a pretty good job with the snap-on circuits and the camera.
The more I watch this, the more I enjoy it. I had two problems: Sophia, 19-months-old, wants to handle the camera to film the action, and I'm having trouble getting the "helicopter" to do what it is supposed to. But Sophia is a trooper and doesn't give up. Tomorrow, I will try to teach her that the electricity only runs one way in diodes. LOL.
