What is Wrong With This Photograph? Part 221

What do people do at this convention hall in New Orleans: enter here; or please use the other side?

The place looked like it was closed anyway. How bizarre.

Favorite answer by Jim F.: “A textbook example of conflicting messages although, I guess one could argue that the signage directing one to ‘Enter here’ is, technically speaking, on the ‘other side’ of the carpeted passage from the sign that says ‘This side closed.’”

Favorite comment by Thomas Richard Potter.: “I suppose that the ‘this side closed/ please use other side’ could refer to the sign itself.

“If you decide to enter here anyway, the authorities could be thwarted by simply stating, I was following the instructions on THIS sign.”

This offer from Hertz is valid on daily and rentals — whatever that means.

Favorite answer by Jim F.: “Don’t know if the image turned out exactly as intended but the first time I saw it, I thought, ‘It’s pretty cool how they made the body of the SUV transparent.’ As far as errors go, I’m sure I’m missing something bigger…but…there is obviously an adjective missing in the third term: ‘Valid on daily and _____ rentals.’”

I drove into an empty parking lot on a cool rainy autumn day…

…and as I was there, I had to wonder about the painting of the lines for these parking spots. Not only does one of the lines cross over another line; but the last parking spot in the background seems to be wide enough to fit at least one and one-half cars.

Someone actually got paid to paint these lines.

Favorite answer by derek: “Looks like either there used to be angled parking or there is insufficient length to have another space.”

Favorite comment by Jim F.: “The photo at the top of this post provides context that might be important. It appears the lot owners needed space for storing pallets, so they marked off a triangular area in the previously lined parking area. Problem is, one of the lines from this newly demarcated area extends into one of the previously lined parking spaces. But, hey, one could still park a motorcycle in the impacted parking space.”

In this article of the review of my recent stay at the Hilton New Orleans Riverside hotel property, the Anystream shower head in the bathroom of my room was manufactured by Speakman. It was retrospective in style and had a few adjustable settings with a good flow of water — but I researched it at the official Internet web site of Speakman and immediately found that one can shop by folw rate.

Favorite answer by rmah: “folw ball!!!!”

Favorite comment by derek: “What is wrong?

“1. These showerheads are still made in the United States.

“2. On the left, the folw rate is not the correct term.

“3. The Speakman S-2280-BJ Commercial Shower Head is illegal for use in California because the flow is too high. The default national maximum is 2.5 gallons per minute but California has restricted maximum flow to 2.0 gallons per minute until 2017, when it restricted it further to 1.8. Before the 1994 national restriction, showers flowed as high as 5.5 gallons per minute.

“There was an exemption where dual head or even triple (3 headed) shower fixtures were allowed so that more water could be used. However, President Biden banned that. He changed federal rules so that even if a shower head had 2 heads, the TOTAL amount of water could be 2.5 gallons per minute, now two shower head, each of which put out 2.5 for a total of 5 gallons per minute.

“It saves some water but increases the time needed to shower.”

I walked by some soccer fields on a chilly autumn afternoon recently. As I was there, I spotted something that left me wondering what was up…

…as the goals are facing a field which is uneven. What kind of sport is played this way?

Does this mean that an opponent faces an uphill battle to win a game?

Favorite answer by Jim F.: “Kind of reminds me of the 3-dimensional checkers/chess games…”

Favorite comment by derek: “There is nothing wrong with the photo. The opposing team goalie defends the goal on the left. That is the correct way to use the field.”
