Screw the CCP.

Screw the CCP dry, no lube. I have similar feelings toward most Dummycraps and Re-Publicans. Show me a political party that isn't crooked and... well, just show me one.

To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, Michigan Lottery added a new online game called Dragon's Palace of Fortunes. And Olight made a Dragon Edition Arkfeld Pro Flat EDC Flashlight with LED Light, UV and Laser. The body is molded of one piece of aluminum alloy, 0.63 in (16 mm) x 4.72 in (120 mm) x 1.06 in (27 mm). And it weighs 3.92 oz (111g) including the 1500mAh Lithium Polymer battery, increased 42.9% from previous Arkfeld. The max runtime is 11 days with a five-level indicator. Besides the light, UV light, and laser, you can turn on the laser and light at the same time and adjust the brightness of the light. If I didn't just buy my EDC flashlight a few days before Christmas, I'd take a serious look at this, and wait for a sale. I have a couple of small UV LEDs I can plug into a Mini Maglite, but they don't work very well.

If you ever shine a UV light on scorpions and see them fluoresce bright green, if it's solid green it's probably an Arizona bark scorpion, one of the few creepy crawly things in the U.S. that are known to have killed dozens of people. You're better off playing with handfuls of tarantulas, brown recluses, black widows, etc. that to be stung by one of these. Some people in Arizona have to sweep their houses with UV lights at night to see if they're infested or not. Or, still infested.
