Mussolini's Secret UFO Files: The 1936 Sightings Italy Tried to Erase

Step into the shadowed skies of Fascist Italy with My Dark Path as we uncover a cascade of unexplained aerial encounters that predate Roswell by more than a decade. Host MF Thomas begins on a twilight street in Milan in 1944, where a young Decima naval commando watches a copper-colored disk hang motionless above Piazzale Loreto—silent, luminous, and gone in an instant—while air-raid sirens wail and anti-aircraft crews stare in disbelief.From there the episode travels back to the morning of August 22, 1936, over the Venice Lagoon and Mestre. Italian Regia Aeronautica pilots scramble Fiat CR.32 biplanes against a ten-to-twelve-meter metallic disk that accelerates away without sound or exhaust. Later that same day, pilot Marinelli and his flight encounter a long gray “aerial torpedo” accompanied by two domed, hat-shaped craft trailing perfect white smoke plumes and flying in flawless formation. A ground observer named Faustino then watches the same cylindrical craft release smaller disc-shaped objects. Photographs and urgent reports race straight to Galeazzo Ciano's desk—Mussolini's son-in-law and Foreign Minister—under the same absolute-secrecy orders first issued after the alleged 1933 Magenta crash and the creation of the secret RS/33 scientific cabinet.Drawing on the Fascist UFO files brought to light by Roberto Pinotti and Alfredo Lissoni (including the anonymous “Mister X” documents later forensically examined), this episode explores how Mussolini's regime imposed total silence, redirected stories as “meteors,” and kept trained military observers quiet for the rest of their lives. What emerges is a portrait of Italy's forgotten pre-Roswell UFO wave—sightings that trained pilots and soldiers could neither identify nor forget.This episode blends immersive historical narration, primary-document context, skeptical analysis of the contested Fascist files, and the enduring power of eyewitness testimony from men who understood the cost of speaking. Perfect for fans of classic UFO cases, Italian ufology, wartime secrecy, and the unexplained.

August is back to school month. The summer vacation ends and the work of education begins. There is nothing more important in life than education. Scriptures admonish us as Believers to: TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY IN WHICH HE/SHE SHOULD GO AND WHEN OLDER, NOW GROWN, THE CHILD WILL NOT DEPART FROM THOSE RIGHT WAYS. So, the training begins again. From the youngest child in day school, to the oldest in graduate school, and the human being, ever learning and growing, continues to mature. Study, real study, is work, hard work. There is nothing more important than developing the mind, learning how to think, reason, and separate right from wrong. An active, growing, learning mind is the greatest asset any human being can have. A mature mind can make intelligent decisions. The mature mind is hungry for wisdom, and views education, real education, as a lifelong endeavor, always in the process of learning and growing. The human mind, the brain, is a marvelous creation of God Almighty, and, in so many ways, is the finest asset of every human being. It must be protected, nourished, and challenged in so many ways. There can never be an end in the hunt for knowledge. Every human being can and must learn every day, EVERY DAY! There is general education, state and federal sponsored and financed, our public education systems. Public education was once good, qualitative, and worthwhile. The schools, high schools and lower, and colleges, were centers of real education. The job of every teacher and professor was to teach, not lecture, or proselyte, or indoctrinate, much less to attempt to teach the student the critical matters of right and wrong. Real education centered on the 3 Rs, the full essence of the subject at hand, challenging the student to think, question, ask, and grow in the appreciation of the 2 learning process. Classes and teachers were not biased, but rather centers for open dialogue, questioning, and differing points of view. How that has changed in the last several decades. So much of public education is now biased, liberal, woke, concerned more with matters such as DEI, transgenderism, the gay agenda, and more. Real education has taken a back seat, and, consequently, has become corrupted in so many states, and the education process has radically changed. So then, it becomes necessary for any parent to think in terms of alternatives, alternatives to public and state sponsored education. One such excellent alternative is HOMESCHOOLING. Homeschooling is very much on the rise. It is an excellent source of education, in many ways superior to public schools, offering the very same course instruction, but with controls, discipline, motivation, and personal attention 1-1. Wherever possible, it is an excellent alternative to public education. Then there is the private school, generally superior in education, but very expensive. Although desirable in many ways, unless there is scholarship involved, it is generally financially out of reach of most parents. Then there is Christian education, from the very youngest years all the way through the college years. There are excellent Christian educational institutions the country over. Not only are they qualitative in education in every way, but they introduce courses which are God-honoring and encourage and instruct the student in the Christian faith. They train the whole student, mentally, physically, and spiritually in the way in which that student should go, the right way, and, wherever possible, that is almost always the best education alternative. It takes work, time, sacrifice, and desire to study and learn. Scripture tells us that if we study to show ourselves approved unto God and man, that we must become workmen and workwomen, wise in the ways of the world, but even more so in the ways of God Almighty and our Lord. Real education is motivated and fertilized by prayer and prospers with the guidance and motivation of the Holy Spirit. Students are challenged to set goals, have objectives, and, in addition to the basic knowledge of education, understand the CALLING which exists for every child and every student of the Living God. The Bible, Judea/Christian ethics, morality, history, and teachings are priorities and essentials. The training of 3 Christian education and the leading and learning of the Holy Spirit become paramount. At the same time, there is the teaching of American history, the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, and a respect and love for the greatest country in the history of mankind, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. Even as with Christian education, where there is freedom and forgiveness from sin and the devil, so there is an understanding and appreciation of the freedoms of this great country, and the duty of every citizen to protect and defend those freedoms. And more. Perhaps the very best and lasting education occurs in the: HOME. The best teachers of all things are MOTHER AND FATHER. From birth, those two parents begin the training up of the child and, in that process, the child learns the fear of the Lord which is the beginning of knowledge and the fundamental tenants of the Christian faith. Perhaps the greatest parental teachings are not the speech, lecture, or talk of the parent, but the ability of the parent to LISTEN to the son or daughter, to dialogue, to respect, to encourage fellowship, relationship, and love. There is nothing more important or more lasting than a loving family experience, nothing. That is the very center, the heart and soul of real and lasting education. If man and woman become father and mother, then it is their duty to: TRAIN UP THAT CHILD IN THE WAYS OF THE LORD. That training should always be a priority in terms of time, quality, and loving relationship, always. Nothing is more important than education, the right education, NOTHING! The hunger and desire for knowledge and wisdom should be instilled and encouraged in every child, so that, as they grow old, they will not depart from that priority in life, which is to never, never cease to learn and mentally grow. Only then can every child become adult, be: ALL, ALL HE OR SHE CAN BE!

Big question marks for DOGEs 'Wall of Receipts'

A website created by President Donald Trump's DOGE to tally its purported cost savings contained myriad data quality issues and inaccuracies, a congressional watchdog reported Thursday. In a review of the Department of Government Efficiency's “Wall of Receipts” website, the Government Accountability Office found the group didn't use transparent methods to produce its figures, included lease terminations that predated DOGE's creation, and listed savings with unknown origins. The findings again call into question the roughly $215 billion DOGE claimed to have saved the government and adds to reporting on the deficiencies of the website's accounting. The New York Times, for example, has previously documented errors and deletions on that page. FedScoop has reported inconsistencies between officials' publicly stated savings claims and the figures included on the website. GAO concluded its report by recommending that the website prominently display the existence of the data-quality issues and limitations. “Prominently displaying data limitations would enhance the value of the Wall of Receipts by providing users with the information that they need to interpret and use the data appropriately,” the report said. According to a letter included within the report, the audit was ordered by Sens. Gary Peters, D-Mich., and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn. Peters is the ranking member on the Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs and Blumenthal is ranking member of its subcommittee on investigations. The report came a day after GAO released another report that revealed little available documentation of financial disclosures and completion of ethics and records management training by DOGE personnel. A House-passed bill to scrap educational requirements in federal contracting jobs cleared a key Senate panel Thursday, putting it on track for a vote before the full chamber. The Skills-Based Federal Contracting Act (H.R. 5235) advanced out of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee by a 10-0 vote. No senators commented on the legislation during the business meeting. The bill, led by Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., would block federal solicitations from including any minimum education standards, unless the contracting officer provides a written justification on why the agency needs an exemption. “Washington created the paper ceiling. This bill tears it down,” Mace said in a statement. “A four-year degree should not be a government-mandated checkbox when hardworking Americans have already proven they can do the job. Demonstrated ability should open doors in this country.” The legislation passed the House in February and has been a pet project of Mace's for years.

Tributologia # 317 - DOOU O IMÓVEL ANTES DA CITAÇÃO. AINDA ASSIM, O STJ RECONHECEU FRAUDE À EXECUÇÃO FISCAL

A ausência de citação formal do sócio é suficiente para afastar a fraude à execução? Para a 1ª Turma do STJ, nem sempre. No julgamento do REsp 2.117.867/RS, a Corte analisou um caso em que uma execução fiscal foi redirecionada para a sócia-administradora após o reconhecimento de dissolução irregular da empresa. O detalhe que tornou o caso especialmente relevante foi a cronologia. O redirecionamento ocorreu em 2012. A sócia ainda não havia sido pessoalmente citada, mas outorgou procuração para que a empresa apresentasse defesa relacionada justamente ao redirecionamento. Depois disso, em 2015, doou um imóvel a familiares. Sua citação pessoal no processo somente ocorreu em 2017. A questão chegou ao STJ: Sem citação pessoal, a doação poderia ser considerada fraude à execução fiscal? O relator, Ministro Gurgel de Faria, entendeu que não. Para ele, seria necessária a efetivação do redirecionamento acompanhada da citação formal da sócia antes da alienação. Mas prevaleceu o entendimento da Ministra Regina Helena Costa. A maioria considerou que a citação formal não pode ser analisada isoladamente quando existem elementos concretos demonstrando que o sócio já tinha ciência inequívoca da execução e, mesmo assim, realizou atos de disposição patrimonial. E há outro componente importante: o imóvel foi transferido gratuitamente para familiares, circunstância que reforçou a percepção de tentativa de blindagem patrimonial. O precedente acende um alerta importante para sócios de empresas em execução fiscal. A discussão deixa de ser apenas: “O sócio já havia sido citado?” E passa a ser: “É possível demonstrar que ele já tinha conhecimento inequívoco do redirecionamento quando transferiu o patrimônio?” Essa mudança de perspectiva pode ter impacto significativo nas defesas envolvendo fraude à execução, planejamento patrimonial e responsabilização de sócios. Esse é o tema do Tributologia desta semana.

No mesmo dia, os 27 superintendentes da corporação divulgaram uma nota em apoio ao diretor-geral da PF, Andrei Rodrigues. A crise se intensificou nas últimas semanas diante das desconfianças nas investigações sobre as fraudes do INSS e do caso do Banco Master, ambos relatados por Mendonça. O candidato à Presidência da República Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) desmentiu o presidente do PL, Valdemar Costa Neto (PL), durante uma live. Após o anúncio de Alfredo Gaspar (PL) como seu vice, Valdemar tinha afirmado que a escolha por Gaspar já tinha ao menos seis meses. Durante a live, Flávio disse que tentou “de toda a maneira” achar uma vice mulher.

The Turbo GT3 Rumor: The End of Naturally Aspirated Porsche Okay, this is the one everyone's going to have an opinion on. Word on the street is that the next GT3 and the 911 R will be turbocharged, and the GT2 RS is set to get hybrid assisted turbo power. If that pans out, it makes it official: Porsche will no longer build a naturally aspirated engine, full stop. That's a massive deal and there's a lot to unpack. What does this do to every N/A car that came before it? What happens to the GT cars specifically, which have always been the naturally aspirated holdouts even after the regular 911 line went turbo? Quick refresher for anyone not paying close attention, Porsche killed the N/A engine in the standard, non-GT 911 back in the 2017 model year, when the 991.2 generation switched to the 3.0 turbo. GT cars have been the last line of defense since then. So now the question is how the market and the fanbase receive a turbocharged GT3. Good? Bad? We've already watched this play out once, there's been a clear camp for almost ten years now chasing the last true N/A 911s, the 991.1 generation specifically, and that divide has only gotten more pronounced as time goes on. If the GT3 goes turbo too, does that camp just get bigger, or does the car end up winning people over anyway? Let's dive in. Rally Season: Get Your Cars Ready PSA time. Doors to rally season are closing fast, officially. If your car isn't ready, now's the time. Oil changes, tires, coolant if you're due, brakes, all of it. Give your independent shop a real runway to get your car sorted instead of showing up last minute. We're only about six weeks out from some of the first rallies of the season, so don't sleep on this. Luft Tickets Are Live Luft tickets went on sale, so hopefully everyone who wanted in got their tickets locked down. Not sure if it's sold out at this point, haven't checked back in, but if you're looking to display a car they're still taking applications right now. Worth getting on that if you want to be part of the show and not just in the crowd. The Ducktail GT3: Hillclimb Homage or Something Else? There's a GT3 running around the Nürburgring wearing a ducktail, and rumor has it this is yet another GT3 variant, this one supposedly paying homage to Porsche's 1960s hillclimb cars. Before the turbo GT3 drops, are we thinking Porsche rolls out a wave of special models to send off the N/A era? Feels likely. Here's the disagreement though: I don't buy the hillclimb homage story. I think people are reading this wrong. My take is this is the homage to the '73 RS with the ducktail that Porsche has talked about building for years, this is finally that car. Curious what you all think, hillclimb tribute or the RS ducktail we've been waiting on? Thank you for your support! Kimchi Crew: Steve, Leslie, Chris, Ken, Aaron, Matthew, Sean, and Nik

High Expectations, High Support: The Leadership Framework Every Generation Needs

What if the biggest challenge facing your organization right now is not strategy, not technology, and not the economy, but the fact that 38 percent of your Gen Z employees have taken a mental health day after receiving feedback? This week, Jon Goehring and Coach Jim Johnson welcome Dr. Andrea Mata, known as Dr. Dre, clinical psychologist, speaker, high school football coach, adjunct professor, and author of a parenting book, for one of the most direct, practical, and genuinely eye opening conversations the Lounge has ever had.Dr. Dre opens with a reframe that every leader working with younger employees needs to hear: Gen Z is not broken. They are under equipped. She traces the root of the problem back two decades to a well-intentioned but consequential shift in parenting philosophy, explains how those patterns then carried into schools, and shows exactly why so many Gen Z employees arrive in the workforce without the adaptability and accountability skills that previous generations took for granted.The conversation gets immediately practical when Dr. Dre shares her three keys for leaders working with Gen Z employees. Move from annual reviews to 12 week evaluations built around specific behavioral expectations. Diagnose where your team members are under equipped and get them targeted support. And stop assuming basic professional skills are common knowledge, because for a generation that never had a landline, many of them simply are not.Jon and Coach also draw out Dr. Dre's framework for building culture from within, including the story of the high school football leadership group she facilitated where the players themselves debated over exactly how to visually represent the phrase we over me, and what that kind of ownership does for team culture at any level.The episode also covers the four Rs of logical consequences and why running sprints as punishment is one of the most common leadership mistakes coaches and managers both make, the five fundamentals of mental health that Dr. Dre uses with clients, and why she believes we are talking more about mental health than ever without actually understanding it any better.The episode closes with Dr. Dre's take on why traditional leadership is not landing with younger employees, and her answer comes back to the same principle she returns to throughout: high expectations and high support together are not a Gen Z accommodation. They are simply what great leadership has always looked like.Connect with Dr. Dre: andreadmata.comGrab her book on Amazon or visit her site for an autographed copy: https://www.amazon.com/No-Parenting-Book-Practical-Pooped/dp/B0CQVLC2YT

HPR4697: Correcting the Dates of Files

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. I recently had an experience where UNIX tools proved very useful. A relative had an old mobile phone running Android that stopped connecting to the carrier's network and bought a new one to replace it. I took on the job of trying to copy their files (consisting of just photos and videos) off of the old phone. Google's software was desperate to convince me to upload everything to the cloud, but I wasn't interested. It offered the option of copying the files over to an SD card, but failed on repeated attempts to do that. The option I tried next was to transfer them to another device via Bluetooth—that one did actually work, although it was slow and would only handle sending about 100 files at a time. They came over to my laptop OK, but the problem with that method was that all of the file times were set to the time when they were transferred. I'm not super familiar with how mobile apps manage metadata, but would presume that they look to file times for organizing photos by date. Fortunately, the names of each of the files included the date and time they were created. I recognized that I could write a bit of shell script to parse the filenames and set the file times accordingly. While there were over 800 files, the good news is that there were only three different categories of filenames, so the logic to extract the information needed was relatively simple. Each file had eight numerical digits representing the date and six digits representing the time. It would definitely be an option to come up with a more sophisticated parser that could handle a wide variety of filenames, but I went the lazy way and just handled those three cases. Another nice aspect was that none of the filenames contained spaces, which allowed me to be a bit less careful when using them in command lines. I didn't need to worry about time zones because my laptop was set to the same time zone as the phone—also, if a time was off a by a few hours it wouldn't make a practical difference. Examples of the three different types of filenames I had to deal with, labeled with the relevant values: YYYY=year, MM=month, DD=day, hh=hour, mm=minute, and SS=second. 00001IMG_00001_BURST20250525140124.jpg YYYYMMDDhhmmSS IMG_20220223_124023.jpg VID_20221017_095024.mp4 YYYYMMDD hhmmSS 20191224_195939.jpg 20161021_122620-1.jpg 20191130_134317_Burst01.jpg 20200129_223612_010.jpg YYYYMMDD hhmmSS I considered awk as an option (see Whiskeyjack's comment on HPR episode 4657 ), but realized it has no built-in way to change file times, so I set it aside. Don't worry, I will come back to that later. My approach was to use an if-then shell construct to choose how to treat the three categories of filenames. For the if condition, I fed the filename into the grep -q command with an appropriate regular expression to test whether it matches. The -q option to grep causes it not to output anything—it returns a zero exit status if there's a match and a status greater than zero if there isn't. Then, there is an elif statement with another grep -q test for the second category of filenames. Finally, an else statement is followed by the command to run for all other filenames. The whole thing is wrapped in a for loop that runs over all the files in the current directory. The touch command , when used with the -t option, can be given a string consisting of the year, month, day, hour, minute, and second. These are all numerals that are run together, except that a period sits between the minute and second. So we need a way to extract these numbers and to insert the period. That's where the cut utility comes in. It can be given a set of characters to select, and I specified a different set representing the appropriate ones depending on which category a filename fit into. To insert the period, I used sed to replace the last two characters with a period followed by those characters. The first script was to test out that I was getting the correct results. for fn in * do if echo "$fn" | grep -q BURST then printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '21-34' | sed 's/..$/.&/' elif echo "$fn" | grep -q -E '^(IMG_|VID_)' then printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '5-12,14-19' | sed 's/..$/.&/' else printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '1-8,10-15' | sed 's/..$/.&/' fi done This one actually sets the file times. The -c option to touch prevents it from creating a file if one with that name doesn't already exist. for fn in * do if echo "$fn" | grep -q BURST then touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '21-34' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" elif echo "$fn" | grep -q -E '^(IMG_|VID_)' then touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '5-12,14-19' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" else touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '1-8,10-15' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" fi done The script ran over all the files in less than 15 seconds and correctly set the file time on each. Job done, right? Well, after I did this, it struck me that there was room for improvement. The script would probably run more quickly if I used a case construct instead of an if construct that called grep multiple times. While the pattern-matching notation used with case is not as flexible and can handle fewer situations than the regular expression syntax available with grep , in this case (see what I did there?) it is sufficient. Testing it out, using case reduced the running time by 45%. Replacing if with case —the commands to be executed for each category of filename can remain exactly the same. for fn in * do case "$fn" in *BURST*) printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '21-34' | sed 's/..$/.&/' ;; IMG_*|VID_*) printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '5-12,14-19' | sed 's/..$/.&/' ;; *) printf "$fn " echo $fn | cut -c '1-8,10-15' | sed 's/..$/.&/' esac done for fn in * do case "$fn" in *BURST*) touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '21-34' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" ;; IMG_*|VID_*) touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '5-12,14-19' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" ;; *) touch -c -t "$(echo $fn | cut -c '1-8,10-15' | sed 's/..$/.&/')" "$fn" esac done I couldn't completely put awk out of my mind, though, and I eventually came up with an awk script for the same purpose. This is far faster, probably because everything can be done within awk except actually modifying the file times, which is possible using the system() function to call touch . I was able to knock 90% off the running time, which for 800 files isn't a big deal but might make a difference if you have hundreds of thousands of files. The awk counterparts to both scripts above. Unlike those, ls is used to feed it with the list of filenames. We have the full power of extended regular expressions available to use for matching against the filenames. The next statement causes awk to skip any remaining pattern-action pairs and go to the next line of input. ls | awk '/BURST/ { print $0, substr($0, 21, 12) "." substr($0, 33, 2) next } /^(IMG_|VID_)/ { print $0, substr($0, 5, 8) substr($0, 14, 4) "." substr($0, 18, 2) next } { print $0, substr($0, 1, 8) substr($0, 10, 4) "." substr($0, 14, 2) }' ls | awk '/BURST/ { system("touch -c -t " substr($0, 21, 12) "." substr($0, 33, 2) " " $0) next } /^(IMG_|VID_)/ { system("touch -c -t " substr($0, 5, 8) substr($0, 14, 4) "." substr($0, 18, 2) " " $0) next } { system("touch -c -t " substr($0, 1, 8) substr($0, 10, 4) "." substr($0, 14, 2) " " $0) }' A further optimization that came to me later was to not call system() from within awk , but to instead just have awk print out a set of command lines. These can then be piped to sh to actually be executed. This cut the running time down by 95% compared to my original script. The fastest version I was able to come up with. If you run it without the | sh on the end, you can check that it's outputting the right information before actually modifying anything. The backslash on the end of a couple lines causes the subsequent line to be treated as a continuation of the existing line. Normally I would just keep everything on one line even if it runs longer than 80 columns, but for display purposes this looks nicer. ls | awk '/BURST/ { print "touch -c -t " substr($0, 21, 12) "." substr($0, 33, 2) " " $0 next } /^(IMG_|VID_)/ { print "touch -c -t " substr($0, 5, 8) substr($0, 14, 4) "." substr($0, 18, 2) " " $0 next } { print "touch -c -t " substr($0, 1, 8) substr($0, 10, 4) "." substr($0, 14, 2) " " $0 }' | sh It is probably true that this could have been carried out just as easily on Windows using Microsoft's PowerShell. I'm not very familiar with it, but would imagine (or hope) that it includes commands for managing these basic things like text manipulation and modifying file times. If you are stuck in an environment where you don't have a UNIX-like system available, investigate how to accomplish a task with the tools you do have. While I had the necessary information in the filenames to use, that might not be the case in all situations. You could look for other sources of dates—most digital cameras will add EXIF tags to a JPEG file giving the date and time it was created. (Hopefully, the clock in the camera will be set accurately.) While there is no standard UNIX utility to read those tags, free and open source software tools are widely available for that purpose. I found one called exiftags that included the utility exiftime , which specifically outputs EXIF data relating to time. The output format was a little trickier to handle, but awk was able to manage it with a little coaxing. Example of output produced by exiftime . Note that the first line with the filename is only printed if more than one filename is given as an argument. Also, for amusing-sign.jpg , apparently I edited that photo after taking it and the editing software updated the "created" tag but left the others intact. Not all images will necessarily have created, generated, and digitized tags; we will just take whichever ones exist. I redirected standard error to /dev/null to get rid of error messages for files that don't have EXIF tags; we'll handle those below. $ exiftime *.jpg 2>/dev/null 20260508_154743.jpg: Image Created: 2026:05:08 15:47:43 Image Generated: 2026:05:08 15:47:43 Image Digitized: 2026:05:08 15:47:43 20260508_155044.jpg: Image Created: 2026:05:08 15:50:44 Image Generated: 2026:05:08 15:50:44 Image Digitized: 2026:05:08 15:50:44 3704a78e771c2a25a894ef2f0b5a2a629f1eba80.jpg: amusing-sign.jpg: Image Created: 2017:01:24 23:14:04 Image Generated: 2017:01:24 21:18:07 Image Digitized: 2017:01:24 21:18:07 dscf3011.jpg: Image Created: 2015:01:01 00:02:19 Image Generated: 2015:01:01 00:02:19 Image Digitized: 2015:01:01 00:02:19 window-view.jpg: $ We can take advantage of the fact that different records are separated by a blank line. In awk , when RS is set to a null string and FS is set to a newline character, each set of non-blank lines is treated as a record and each line within those sets is treated as a field. One or more blank lines separate each record. For the output of exiftime , this means that $1 will contain the filename and $2 will contain the first line after the filename. For those files without an EXIF date tag, $2 will be a null string, which is treated by awk as FALSE, so the pattern will not match, the action will not be taken, and nothing will be printed. If a file has multiple tags, I will just use the first one reported by exiftime (contained in $2 ). The sub() function call removes the colon that exiftime prints after the filename, and the gsub() function call removes all non-numeric characters from the date and time in the tag. (After a comma within a print statement, a backslash is not necessary to continue a line.) Also, this time I bothered to print quotation marks around the filename in case it contains spaces. $ exiftime *.jpg 2>/dev/null | awk 'BEGIN { FS = "n" ; RS = "" } $2 { sub(":$", "", $1) gsub("[^0-9]", "", $2) print "touch -c -t", substr($2, 1, 12) "." substr($2, 13, 2), """ $1 """ }' touch -c -t 202605081547.43 "20260508_154743.jpg" touch -c -t 202605081550.44 "20260508_155044.jpg" touch -c -t 201701242314.04 "amusing-sign.jpg" touch -c -t 201501010002.19 "dscf3011.jpg" $ I would imagine that there's some photo management program out there that I could have used to accomplish this. But then I would have had to locate it, verify that it wasn't some malware-loaded garbage, download, and install it. And chances are it would want to take over all the photos on my laptop. Instead, with standard UNIX tools and shell capabilities like if , case , process substitution, and pipelines, I was able to complete the task without having to install anything. The techniques I described can be used in different circumstances and with the output of different utilities. My intention was not just to explain how to solve this specific problem, but to hopefully teach you some things that you can apply in many situations. Perhaps if you use them to tackle a challenge of your own, you'll record an episode for HPR to share what you know. Provide feedback on this episode.

60 years ago, Porsche fundamentally changed the sports car benchmark by affixing a single, iconic letter to the back of the 911: "S".To celebrate the 60th Anniversary of the Porsche 911S (1966–2026), Lee and Andy embark on a comprehensive deep-dive into the history, engineering, and cultural impact of Porsche's quintessential performance model. From its humble origins as a 160hp high-revving 2.0-litre screamer to today's twin-turbocharged 992 Carrera S, we trace the complete timeline of the badge that defined everyday supercar usability.Has the significance of the "S" badge diminished in an era dominated by GT3s, Turbos, and GTS models, or does the Carrera S remain the absolute sweet spot of the 911 lineup? Special Guest Expert Panel:The Air-Cooled Era: Adrian Crawford from Williams Crawford Passion for Porsche joins us to break down the golden age of air-cooled 911S models—from the original F-Model 2.0S, 2.2S, and 2.4S through to the iconic Carrera 2.7S and 2.8 RSR heritage.The Water-Cooled Era: Jason from Porsche Centre Bournemouth steps in to guide us through the modern generation transition—evaluating the 996.2 Carrera S, 997.1/997.2, 991, and current 992 Carrera S to explain how Porsche dealership customers view the "S" badge today.QUICK FAQ: 60 YEARS OF THE PORSCHE 911S Q: When was the first Porsche 911S introduced? A: The Porsche 911S was first introduced in 1966 for the 1967 model year as the first high-performance derivative of the original 911, producing 160 hp from its 2.0-litre air-cooled flat-six engine.Q: What does the "S" stand for in Porsche 911S? A: The "S" in Porsche 911S stands for "Sport." It designated upgraded engine performance, enhanced chassis components, vented disc brakes, and iconic Fuchs alloy wheels.Q: What is the difference between a Porsche Carrera and Carrera S? A: Historically and in modern water-cooled generations (997, 991, 992), the Carrera S offers larger engine displacement/higher horsepower, upgraded brakes, wider track/wheels, standard PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), and sportier chassis tuning compared to the base Carrera.

We dig into the HOA red flags homebuyers should take seriously before closing, especially if you're buying a condo or a home with shared amenities. We've both got strong opinions about property freedom, but we keep it practical and focused on what protects you: documents, numbers, and how the community is actually maintained.We start with a real client moment: the inspection gets cancelled because the HOA paperwork raises enough concerns that the buyers walk away. From there, we get specific about HOA financial health, what capital reserves are supposed to cover, and why high monthly dues do not automatically mean the association is prepared.

Fearsome Alien Encounters in Mid-Century Italy – Why These Witnesses Were Silenced

Step into the shadowed woods of early 20th-century Italy with My Dark Path as we uncover two extraordinary close encounters that echo the mysteries of the alleged 1933 Magenta RS/33 UFO crash and recovery.Host MF Thomas guides you through the humid Ferretto woods near Terontola, where battle-hardened veteran Astore Chiucini stumbles upon a glowing green circular craft and two hooded figures performing calm, deliberate repairs—before the silent machine rises with an earth-shaking roar and vanishes into the night. Then travel to the damp woodlands outside Abbiate Guazzone in Lombardy, where factory worker Bruno Facchini witnesses a metallic disc with bluish lights and small suited beings. When discovered, one fires a crackling fan of white-blue light that paralyzes and burns him—leaving physical scars, strange lightweight metal fragments, and a lifelong silence broken only years later.These two ordinary Italian men—years apart—described nearly identical scenes: landed circular craft, hooded or helmeted figures in tight suits working on repairs, silent departures defying known aviation, and physical evidence that lingered. Set against the backdrop of secret post-war aircraft testing near SIAI-Marchetti facilities in Vergiate and the rumored RS/33 program, these cases blur the line between coincidence and hidden context. Were they experimental human tech, or something truly not of this world?This episode blends immersive narration, historical context, skeptical analysis, and the enduring power of eyewitness testimony from men who offered to swear oaths or kept fragments hidden under their beds. Perfect for fans of classic UFO close encounters, Italian ufology, physical trace cases, and the unexplained.
