#RangePond State Park
31 State Park Road, #PolandME 04274
(207) 998-4104
#ForestWalkMeditation Wednesday, September 10, 17 & 24, 11:00 a.m.—Noon
Meet at 10:45 a.m. at the parking lot across from the Range Pond State Park gate. The program will start at 11:00 a.m. Yes, we know it’s a funny name, but here generations of Mainers have called it “Going up to Camp”. In Japan they say "#ShinrinYoku," which literally means "#ForestBath". Make time for yourself, life is hectic. Come over to slow down and connect with Range Pond’s forest and wildlife. Enjoy an hour of quiet. Do’s: Prepare to be outside, that means black fly & tick precautions. Bring a folding chair if you want to sit. Don’ts: Leave those bars of soap at home and please leave your phone in your car. Ranger Lori, a retired educator and lifelong outdoor enthusiast will facilitate this program.
#AdoptATree
Saturdays, September 13 & 27, 3:00—4:00 PM Check in at 2:45 at the park entrance booth.
In this activity, families will “adopt” a tree at the park, deepening their awareness of individual trees over time and encouraging a greater understanding and appreciation of their local environment. On your next trip to the Park, visit your tree and write down how the tree looks, feels, and smells to describe how your tree is changing. Ranger Lori, a retired educator and lifelong outdoor enthusiast will facilitate this one hour program. Printed Adoption Certificates and Tree Journal pages will be provided.
Wildlife that Lives Here
Saturdays, September 6 & 20, 4:00—5:00 PM
Check in at 3:45 at the park entrance booth. Join the Park Manager as he shares the secrets of all the animals he gets to encounter while living in the Park year round. The park is more than just the beach and playgrounds, its a truly a wild place where many different animals chose to live. Join Ranger Chris for a one-hour chat and share your wildlife sightings at the park.
Book Collections at the Park
Do you have books that you love that you want to share with others? Help us stock up for next summer’s #BookSwaps. Please bring lightly used books for all ages and bring to the Park’s entrance booth 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. daily.

Il sito del pentagono è già cambiato in war.gov dopo le dichiarazioni sul cambio nome del Ministero della Difesa americano in Ministero della Guerra.
Gli americani se la stanno vedendo brutta con Trump. #Trump vuole degli #USA più piccoli, deboli e facilmente manipolabili dalle altre potenze globali o dagli #oligarchidigitali.
Dovrebbero cominciare a svegliarsi.

My phone always autocorrects "shabbos" to "shakos".
Apparently people are often texting about old school military hats. I, on the other hand, had to look up what a shako was.

while the engine can be SUPER slow, especially in a 81 user world with culling disabled, the renderer is still decoupled from it

you can see my head moving smoothly as the engine is running much slower

The National coalition's plan to demolish New Zealand's public health service is progressing nicely.
The Emergency Department at Christchurch Hospital has come under sustained pressure with doctors saying it’s like a “mass casualty situation”.
Always remember that this level of underfunding and understaffing is a deliberate choice on behalf of the Luxon government. The transfer of wealth to the already wealthy requires sacrifices and if you're poor or disadvantaged, bad luck cos that's your own fault.

Rich people money isn't real, is it? Like, saying i own stuff so i can take debt against it and then paying the debt by selling things i said i owned so i could get the loan, or just getting another loan to cover the first one, that's not legit, right? And when i hear someone has a billion dollars i want to see it because I'm sure that much money was never printed. But i can believe they control something a bank will give them money for if they use it as collateral, and they can pay their debt with the things they used as collateral to get the loan.
They don't have a billion dollars, they have the means to go billions of dollars into debt. Having money would mean they pay taxes. Having debt means they control money.
Rich people money isn't real, is it?

It's as if 2020 told 2025 that it was going to be hard to mess up vaccine rollouts any worse than 2020 did (who remembers staying up until midnight every night and refreshing when one pharmacy's slots opened while your family member got up at 5 am for another's?), and 2025 says "hold my beer."

The image depicts a scenic view of a city with a prominent yellow bridge spanning a river. In the foreground, there are concrete steps leading down to the riverbank, with metal railings on either side. The steps are flanked by green grass and yellow sculptures, adding a splash of color to the scene. A boat is visible on the water, and a cyclist is seen on the path beside the river. The background features a city skyline with various buildings, including a distinctive skyscraper with a pointed top. The sky is partly cloudy, and the overall atmosphere is calm and inviting.

The image shows a view from a stadium seating area, with a box of waffle-cut fries and a cup of soda on a table in the foreground. The box contains golden-brown fries, a folded napkin, and a packet of condiment, possibly cheese or ketchup. Next to the box is a clear plastic cup filled with a dark-colored soda, likely cola, with ice cubes visible. In the background, the baseball field is visible, with players on the diamond and a crowd of spectators in the stands. The stadium has a blue seating area, and the field is green with a brown dirt infield. A scoreboard is visible above the field, and the seating area is numbered 130. The atmosphere suggests a typical baseball game experience.

The image depicts a baseball game in progress at a large stadium. The field is visible in the center, with a pitcher in a yellow uniform on the mound, a batter in a white uniform at home plate, and an umpire behind the batter. The stands are partially filled with spectators, many wearing yellow, suggesting they are fans of the home team. The scoreboard shows a score of 1-0, with the game in the first inning. The stadium has multiple tiers of seating, with advertisements visible on the upper levels, including one for "FLIGHT" and another for "PNC BANK." The atmosphere appears lively, with fans engaged in the game. The image also includes a section of the seating area with a visible seat number "130."
