Overnight Open Thread (17 Oct 2014)
Greg Gutfeld made a salient observation the other day. He pointed out that liberalism thrives in times in which there are no crises. In times such as those, liberalism raises lightweight issues and gives them gravitas. School lunch programs, child obesity, the size of soda drinks, gay rights, free contraception, are their rallying "causes celeb". However, when crisis presents itself, we reap the consequences of liberalism in governmental leadership. More frequent now are the vapid responses to crisis led by the conveniently appointed, those "politically correctly" installed into position of power. The responses tend to be inept and politically expedient. Imagery, polls and elections are the focus rather than the required action and solution. Is seems to be contrary to their DNA to depart from the warm and fuzzy to the tactful, strategic and necessary.
Winter Is Coming
It's almost as if one of the symptoms of Ebola is an unaccountable urge to travel and spread the virus.
And now we have a lawyer who is known as a political fixer of political problems being named the Ebola czar. Brilliant. Remember, everything is under control.

The Progressive march towards a 'non-gendered' world has been acceleration as of late. The terms 'Mother' and 'Father' are set to be purged from California law, the pronouns 'he' and 'she' can now apply to anyone, and even stating a baby's visually obvious gender is considered child abuse.

The beauty of this word gamesmanship is that soon no one will be able to say anything about anything without violating a "law" and then selective enforcement will be efficiently used to sort out those that really need the re-education camps, the ones that survive the Ebola Games that is.

When emotion is allowed to override whatever intellect said individual claims to possess, the results are always bad. Liberalism continues because the pain most people feel is too remote. When it becomes up close and personal? Conversions for the honest. Insanity for the disingenuous.

GGE, re: Carson, on the CDC. I agree.
I'm just skittish about "2A deniers".
I voted for my neighbor on the GOP ticket for state senate last election. Donated to her campaign, had her sign in the yard.
When HB 937 was headed to a vote she not only didn't answer my email supporting the legislation, she didn't vote at all, and recently hasn't replied to GRNC's questionnaire.

She also serves well as a reservoir for all of Russell Brand's sexually transmitted diseases.
All one needs to do to negate any sexual desire towards Katy Perry is remind people that Russell Brand once prodigiously feasted on all Perry's nubile flesh. And she *loved* it and feasted on his disease-riddled flesh in turn

In Michigan, we had over a week off from work, and that was everyone except emergency personnel, not just teachers. Everything was completely shut down. Even snowplows couldn't get through. There were 12 foot drifts, and cars were abandoned on the roads. They ended up clearing streets with front end loaders and road construction equipment.
It was great. We cross country skiid to the closest store to stock up, and spent the time baking brownies and making chili. People with snow mobiles went from house to house asking if anyone needed prescriptions picked up. Good times.

All I can say in the smal amount of space is that Bill Maher is a bigger idiot than he portrayed Bush to be.
And, it is hilarious how fucking wrong Bill Maher is on every subject he criticizes Bush and the Republicans on. It has to be seen to be believed how big of an ass Bill Maher makes of himself and his trained seals (Massholes).

It's more than that. The public, for example, wants the southern border enforced. This administration is lazy -- it does no work unless forced to, by the press, over a period of several days. And it is fundamentally committed to Marxist PC, and will lie and cheat to make it happen, and only deviate from it when forced to by even more extreme pressures.
The only true sin in this Administration is making the Head Narcissist look bad. When that happens is the only time you see forceful and rapid action.

Something made out of animal feed and beet sugar shouldn't cost like fine calvados.
Further, if terms like "oak" are used to described the likker it should be in fine phrases like, "It put me down faster than an oak barrel stave, but with less bruising."
I admit, I have the refinement of something that should be first run through a pug-mill, but I also have standards. Low standards.

Once in college, I was at a party and a guy there I knew fairly well, who was drunk and pretty despondent over his girlfriend leaving him, started ranting and talking crazy about how he was going to kill himself. He started running for the door. I grabbed his arm and he pushed me -with force. He was a thin guy (a runner) and I was in much better shape than I am now. I flew backwards and hit the wall with force and slid down on my ass. He said "Oh, God, Donna, I'm sorry" and came over and helped me up and apologized 10 million times. I didn't hold it against him. I knew he was basically a good guy. (And he didn't kill himself.) But I had a bump on the back of my head the next day.
That made me realize that even with toned arms, I wasn't really capable of fighting an average-sized man who really intended to hurt me. This guy wasn't built like a linebacker and that push sent me flying.

But that was also true of her pork chops and steaks. The Greatest Generation was afraid of catching diseases from undercooked meat, so they cooked the hell out of everything. My father was disgusted when I took him to a steakhouse in Chicago and ordered my steak medium-rare. "That blood is going to make you sick," he told me.
What my mother was was a great baker - I grew up with homemade bread, donuts, cakes from scratch. But cooking wise, she was a kitchen assassin .

I would be remiss if I did not point out that, thanks to the magic of the marketplace, you can now obtain pre-cooked bacon in _cans_. So that as civilization collapses around your ears, and Lord Humongous comes roaring up to demand your surrender, you can still enjoy bacony goodness.
However, it may now suddenly have become difficult to obtain said cans. I am given to understand that supplies of prep food have abruptly been cleaned out all across the continent, for some unaccountable reason. I blame sunspots.

He was playing with the 'beta' from the Lockheed story;
"The problem with tokamaks is that "they can only hold so much plasma, and we call that the beta limit," McGuire says. Measured as the ratio of plasma pressure to the magnetic pressure, the beta limit of the average tokamak is low, or about "5% or so of the confining pressure," he says. "

My sister and I laugh about how bad a cook my mom was. But we have to bow and say thanks when we think of how we were spoiled with homemade bread. Her apple turnovers were heaven. Her baking made up for her cooking.
Funny, because both my brothers get offended and angry when my sis and I laugh about mom's cooking. Well, mom did always like them more. Linda and I say "Remember her greasy soup (our term for her beef barley soup - she apparently never thought to skim the fat off of soup) And what about that awful liver and onions? Or the chili that was like tomato sauce and hamburger?"
The boys (now in their 50's and 60's) don't like anybody disrespecting my mother - not even her daughters. It's funny - I think mothers and daughters see each other more coldly and clearly than mothers and sons do. That might be true of fathers and sons also. My father was tougher on the boys than he was on his little girls.

And The Salvation Army Band played, and the children drank lemonade, and the morning lasted all day....
Seriously, that sounds great, and I bet supplies were obtained, and prescriptions acquired, and much fun was had by all, while still getting vital tasks done as a community. The one thing you didn't need was government, neither "help" nor supervision.

That's right, men are just stronger than women, physically. That's why for many millennium mankind has been evolving social codes that restrain men and protect and elevate the status of women. Feminists now want to destroy that, and I say it's at their peril.
Example: The current woman's world record in the 400 meter dash is 47.60 seconds. That's the fastest woman in the world. A high school boy ran the same race in 45.19 seconds in 2012. Physical differences between the differences exist. Denying it helps no one.

Essentially an English flour, eggs and milk based muffin served with drippings or gravy. I don't make them, but instead much prefer an American popover. Popovers are lighter, and best when piping hot from the oven, and slathered with real butter.

When you do it properly, you will want to waste as little of the meat as possible on such processing.
Jerky is for tough cuts of meat. If you want to grind meat, do it at the time of use and you will find your burger tastes much better for the minor effort.

She didn't do anything special to it, just browned the sides and bottom, then put in a covered roaster and cooked it in the oven. I probably should ask her for cooking instructions and write it down.

I was once the salad and sandwich maker at a hotel restaurant and (surprisingly) got a lot of room service orders for tongue sandwich. It initially grossed me out a bit to slice up a - tongue, which is unmistakably a tongue. I finally braced myself and tried it myself - and I thought it was pretty good. But I've never seen it in a regular grocery store.

What will last for California will be (a) the third-of-a-trillion dollar public sector pension bomb, (b) "capital appreciation bonds" for public infrastructure, (c) soaring energy costs thanks to "green, renewable" power, (d) a completely failed public education system from pre-K through grad school, and (e) the worst regulatory climate for private business in all fifty states, bar none.

I make pumpkin pie from puree'd pumpkins and I like to use my own because I can. I freeze the puree in red solo cups that hold 2 cups.
So you defrost the puree
and mix in:
2/3 C brown sugar
1/2 tsp ginger
2 eggs, beaten
2/3 C dry milk
1/2 tsp salt
any spices you feel like.

This is one of those things with food. We get trained when we are young on our likes. Thanksgiving at anyone else's house is just not as good as when mom made it. I'll always want a comfort food they don't make.

Grandma made pumpkin pie crust with lard.
Straight from the farm, no intermediary, non-hydrogenated lard.
Absolutely perfect and delicious.
Damn near impossible to find these days. I did find a bit of classic nonprocessed farm lard via Northern Commiefornia obsessive foodie circles. Used it for fried chicken instead of pie.

Point the first: infowars. I'll pass. My vinegar to diffuse the chew trails hasn't arrived yet.
Point the two: if I go on strike, I have this guy, let's call him a "boss" who will disapprove of not showing up to do the job he pays me to do. Then he will take an action that, for the sake of conversation, let's call "firing my deadbeat ass".
Conclusion: I will go to work on Monday. Actually, Sunday, because the aforementioned "boss" hates me.

My friend left France in 1982 to escape the Socialists and grew up in rural Normandy in the 60's - so it's possible he's talking about rural regional dishes that people in other parts of France didn't eat.
He says France is very different from the country he grew up in - but also says America is very different from the country he emigrated to in '82 (after waiting 7 years to get a green card). Well, yeah it sure is, isn't it? ;-(

I have an aunt Beverly who, when I was growing up, was famous for "the Bev Buffet" -- like getting a single large pizza for everyone when we came by (that would be four adults and three kids). We'd all joke about it as we ate our "pre-dinners" before we went to their house.
We tend to do the opposite. We've had board meetings of our fish club here where, not only did everyone leave stuffed, most folks had goodie-bags of leftovers. Many have reported back that their kids liked the desserts.

In the early 80's, I traveled over 500 miles up the Queensland coast to stand in line for the opening of a tuck shop that was famous for its pies. They were almost sold out at 9am.
It was worth it. I camped on the beach over night, and was first in line the next day. Bought a dozen that time.
I wish I could do that again.

Perhaps in some cases. But my mother was a terrible cook. One year she tried to cook the turkey in the microwave and it basically crystallized. So we started having Kentucky Fried Chicken for Thanksgiving...until they weren't open on Thanksgiving anymore. The first year that happened, we had fried eggs for Thanksgiving dinner. Subsequent years were...worse.
Long story short, I had to learn to cook for myself, starting from square one. My wife, being Italian, also did not have a lot of experience with the traditional Thanksgiving menu. Now we brine the turkey and then slow roast it in the oven, make our gravy from scratch, and experiment with different approaches to mashed potatoes. Our current favorite involves using cream cheese and butter.

Tell me about it. At Thanksgiving and Christmas, my relatives inevitably send people home with plenty of turkey and stuffing and fruit salad in tupperware containers, because they invited 20 and cooked enough for 40.
I always automatically double recipes when I have people over, even when the recipe says "serves 4" and 4 people are having dinner. I'm terrified that I'll run out of food and someone will go home hungry.

"I don't answer racist questions." [banter follows]
Second question: "Do you consider yourself to be Hispanic?"
"That's another racist question."
Bunch of questions later, "OK, for classification purposes, can I get your age?"
"Old."
"Ummmm....I'm looking for two numeric digits. Are you 18 to 21...."
"Just 'old'."
"Mmmmm....[muttered, softly]....I'll just put 50." [very good guess, but probably for the wrong reasons -- most likely the 20-something poll-taker thinks 50 is old.]
A little at a time.....oh, and from her speech patterns, it seems she's used to telephone numbers that go XX-XXXX-XXXX instead of (XXX)XXX-XXXX. I asked her where she was actually calling from and she refused to tell me, trying to tell me that the company she was calling for was HQ'd in Boise. So, then, I told her why. Still no luck.

There are a couple of food-related memes that I've been spreading for years. One of which is that the preparation of food to be tantalizing to the senses is actually of interplanetary origin, and was carried to earth on a meteor that landed near Florence, Italy, somewhere around the time of the Etruscans. From there it spread in ripples across Europe, being partially blocked by the Alps and nearly thwarted at the English Channel.
Another is my story about fine teas and tea blends, which the fiancee used to great effect in her recent travels. As I tell it, there is a huge tea warehouse near London that is mainly responsible for the worldwide distribution of tea (a relic of the Empire).
In it, bales of tea from all over are wheeled in a constant stream to a room of experts. One expert uses a special tool to core out a small sample from the bale; this is handed off to another expert who crumbles the sample in his fingers, sniffs it, occasionally infuses it in water -- but not always -- most of the time it is merely thrown aside....and discusses the results from the next official; the final official consults the great book in which tea demand and supply are reconciled and issues determinations.
A bale comes in, the sample is taken, it is evaluated, its particulars are reviewed, and the verdict is: "this is fine Indian tea, let it be sent to our friends in London." The next bale comes in: "this is fine Kenyan tea, let it be sent to our friends in Madras." Another bale: "this is middling Indian tea, ship it off to Gloucester."
This continues throughout the day, until the hour grows late....and then the Lords of Tea say, "we're done for the day, sweep all that stuff off the floor, ship it to America, and turn off the lights."

It's a 'kids anime', sorta... kinda hard to explain, too many different parallels to explain properly. You'll have to watch it yourself to understand.
Bottom line: Ghibli fans will love it, and they can plunk their kids down in front of the tube and not have worry for a moment about what they're gonna see.
It sorta has the feel of those animes made back in the 80's that were based off the 'classic' stories (Anne of Green Gables, etc.). E.G.--utterly 'family friendly'.

The fiancee told her version of that story to the snooty woman at the tea counter at Harrods, and actually got her to crack a smile.
Another favorite is to take a real place -- http://peasoupandersens.net/ -- conflate it with the intro to the Beverley Hillbillies -- http://tinyurl.com/ppb3btz -- and then graft it into a Bond villain's lair. I've thoroughly infected the fiancee with this one to the point where she did a Toastmasters speech on it. Seems that the original restaurant in Buellton -- known as "the font" -- has a subterranean vault guarded by soldiers in futuristic jumpsuits where a crack in the wall oozes pea soup. A secret factory complex then captures the soup, cans it, and ships to grocery stores throughout the state. Buckets of the soup are also regularly hauled to the restaurant above through a rough shaft coarsely drilled through the native rock.

"do you guys do the seven fishes thing?"
Fish at Thanksgiving? Yes. In conjunction with corn. The classic northeastern tribal fertilization hokum. One fish per cornstalk.
But not seven different separate fishes.

At the restaurant, it's served with an odd sliced bread that contains cheese and poppy seeds -- as well as a cracker that strongly resembles Ry-Krisp, and sides of butter.
For me, the little ritual involved is adding ham and bacon, then stirring in, then peppering the top, then adding croutons, then thoroughly buttering the bread and dipping until the butter partially melts. You then eat the bread to new butter and repeat until the soup is cooled enough to snarf down by itself, alternating with the goat food.
Oh, and that's another story.....the LA Zoo's petting zoo -- which, like many, is full of goats -- used to sell Ry-Krisps to feed the goats with. Took me years to figure out that they were ordinarily a people food.

Standard split-pea soup recipes (as well as their close cousins, lentil soups), work better if they get a hit with an immersion blender along the way, as well as added herbs and spices.
This dhal recipe, for example, uses cumin and saffron -- http://tinyurl.com/n32lvtd .
It really depends on what sort of pea soup you're looking to have.
I haven't previously heard of using corn starch to thicken the soup -- I generally end up trying to lighten it.

I prefer this soup to be like a beef stew...a hearty meal, therefore thickened up. I made a 6 quart slow cooker full of both this soup and a beef stew for myself and a roommate. He bitched that it was too thick for his bread to dip in to. I laughed and showed him the faucet and the Microwave.

I dunno about anyone else, but when I buy more than I can use in one shot, I freeze it in the marinade. I'd figure venison worked the same way, since you get one animal's worth of meat and only need one meal's.

I haven't been hunting in years (due to location), but family all have freezers in their garages for extra meat. My uncle in the last around who still actively hunts as the cousins haven't taken to it.
Reading the thread, Thanksgiving is my job,but I always leave the kitchen in a state that it takes awhile to clean. Last year my wife walked in and asked, "has the bomb squad done there thing and left or are they still on the way?" Heh.

Howdy, Carol -- I've got to say, I'm getting touchy about events. I would rationally think that "[t]hey took my brother off ventilator Thursday after 1 pm" means that they are confident in Paul's ability to breathe on his own, and that this would be a great relief to him.
Unfortunately, I'm just paranoid enough to think that the Death Panels might have decided that he's done and that he is being sentenced to acute (and possibly terminal) respiratory distress.
Please tell me that Paul being off a ventilator is good news.

I used to love Reggiano Parmesesn cheese & now for over one year it's not very good. There was a new Whole foods opened innChaelestown Massachusetts in late August or early September & it's not as good.
I asked man at that store & he said it's been the same.
I went to one that has been open for years & told experienced man at cheese counter that taste wasn't quite right.
.man told me that so R idiotic group made them h & cows had to ear environmentally new grass.
If you used to buy Parmesesn Reggjiano cheese I suggest you try small piece (if you grate it) or small container if you are like me & buy grated Reggianio Parmesean cheese.
It's not worth price now because cows had to eay new grass!

That sounds like the idiotic FDA thing about aging cheese on wooden boards. It's part-and-parcel of the style of cheese, it's been done for several hundred years without incident, but they just decided that it's illegal because they're not sterile. Hey, guess what -- cheese becomes cheese through bacterial action.....of course it's not sterile!

I'm sorry, it's dark out but warm here. I went outside to sweep and/or pick up leaves from rose beds, maple tree leaves.
The nurse said Pail was able to keep his airway open to breathe on his own.
My nephew, his son, works at hospital as Certified Nursing Assistant & my neice met me at ICU Tuesday. I told her & she knows her brother doesn't return calls.
I sent text on Wednesday to tell him to cut Paul's nails if & when he is back at nursing home. I don't send text messages & was shocked that he replied "of course, auntie'"
I don't know if his mother yelled at him or if he heard something when Paul was brought in. Paul Jr. works overnight in ER.
He's replied several times & he's been to see his father every day. He lives within 5 minutes of hospital walking.
I haven't been to that hospital since 1997 & it took me longer to find area for visitor parking than finding hospital.
My neice went there to see me, not Oaul.
If Conservative Crank is still around, he can confirm they have to be sedated to tolerate ventilator.
I'm going to wait until,8 am to call & ask how Paul is doing.
Thank you.

I didn't sleep much. My youngest has a cold. He actually had a great night, but since he fell asleep on the couch, I slept on the loveseat. Not comfy. Tossed and turned, worried the cats who kept checking on me.
Since he was up at 5am yesterday, I'm so far behind on sleep that I will probably conk out this afternoon. Which would be much easier to do if my husband were in town...

My brother has almost died at least 20 times since March 30, 2013 & one of these days he's not going to be able to rebound I wass worried Monday when the hospital told me they were going to keep in before 9 am & to call back in an hour. Noon n
Woman said he was in ICU & tried to put me through to nurse & came back to tell me which doctor would call.
He's a quadriplegic from multiple strep infections. They took far too long to do full body MRI & found infection was also in cervical spine (neck) & that's what caused, I believe & none has refuted it, that caused it.
It's took 8 days after he was removed from vent in April last year before they did MRI & foiund (?) infection was in cervical spine & he has accesses in it.
