Happy New Year!

Do you have any New Year's Resolutions?

If you like, I could throw up a New Year's Resolution Progress thread once a month, say on the last weekend of a month. That way, people might feel a little competitive/social pressure to keep them (which I assume would be a good thing, given that most Resolutions are worth keeping).

Oh, don't like sweat this too much. I realize I'm springing this on you at 11:53 Eastern. I'll put up a similar thread tomorrow.

1 I ran 12.6 miles on the treadmill Tuesday and lifted weights for several hours today.

And I'm only having 2 beers tonight. My motto used to be "Beer, why stop at 13?"

7 This is the first full year of playing the piano I started a few days after New Years 2014.

It's amazing how much you can improve over the course of
a year.

My New Years resolution is to get better.

It's almost Auld Lang Syne time.

And I promise the Horde, if I'm ever "gifted" with that picture, I'll share.

The fiancee and I have been doing quite a bit of hiking. In the US, when you have a loop trail, the great majority of people will hike around it in a clockwise fashion.

And the fiancee and I have figured out why. It's because you have to say "em eucser, em eucser -- pleh, pleh!" in your emergency call if you get in trouble going counterclockwise.

199 Thanks to Carol for letting me know that this thread was even here.
I'll just c&p from the ONT:

429 Happy New Year to everyone from the right coast. 

I have neither the brain cells nor the energy left to list you all by name, but know that I wish you ALL only the best in 2015. 
Well, almost all of you... 

It's been a helluva year. Let's make this new one matter. 

Posted by: shredded chi at January 01, 2015 12:26 AM (LGFTn)

200 I have never been good with resolutions. Mostly what happens is I don't become even worse than I was in the previous year.

But in 2014 I have been forced to face things that I never wanted to, primarily my father's dementia. His case is not Alzheimer's, and therefore he is not forgetting his family. It's more like a slow-acting stroke. He can no longer string a sentence together. But he sits with us, listens, laughs, and loves hugs from his seven children.

Still, it makes me sad to see him no longer able to join us in the ridiculous jokes and stories. He once had a Sean Bannion Level punster wit.

My parents will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary in January. My wife and I are heading for 27. Reckon my resolution is to do what my parents have done.

God bless you, Ace, assorted cobs, and the Horde, the ONT crowd and the daywalkers. I love my pretend friends on the Interwebs.

Well, for me at least, the jerk is harder. (Heheheh). But that's because I come from a weightlifting background, and consequently, I move like shit. I'm learning, but learning is painful.

Two units responding on every call? Goody, massive cop overtime just in time for the holiday, are cops rolling on calls tomorrow pulling in 4.5x pay?

Writing 94% fewer tickets? I mean, in an absolute sense that may be a GOOD thing, but it sure as hell pinches Di Blasio's ability to throw baksheesh around.

We'l see what happens in a couple months when all that cop overtime that's not being funded by cop activities starts hoovering money out of other corners of the kleptocracy.

I heard tales long ago that once every year Ace would blast off and nuke the barrel from orbit, since that was the only way to make sure that the barrel would be fresh for the new year.

That stopped about 8 years ago when someone mistook Ace's Pissboy (Maet) for Ace.

501 Country Singer. You think that radar had a bleed? Try my friend's CB linear.

He drives "pilot car" for hideously oversized loads, all over the lower 48. He's licensed in all of 'em, and also qualified to run the hydraulics on any of the 64 axle, multi-million pound loads that they haul.

If need be, he can scout out 20+ miles ahead of the load, and reach out with 250 watts of pure, clean DC amplified power, in the CB/SSB wavelengths. Illegal? Yes. Handy sometimes? Indeed.

And it'll blank out every broadcast signal and even some cable TV hookups, for at least a 300 yard radius. EVERY. Thing.

Needless to say, he's on and off the air the bare minimum to get the job done. Thing is, some of those desolate Dakotas, just don't have the cel coverage to be that dependable with millions of pounds and tens of thousands of dollars a day, on the line.

Just think of it as a small AWACS antenna, tuned to "beam", but without the power to microwave-oven unprotected flesh.

518 GGE. The linear signal is Omni, when projected from a standard antenna tip.

However, using a directional beam antenna, common in the HAM community, he can point it in the direction of the heavy load, and focus the signal "that a way".

Of course, that means that almost the same power is going out 180 degrees to the intended, so there's that. And the side-lobe signal is nothing to sneeze at.

But, a true, lattice-type, beam antenna. On an F-150. I won't mention the cab type or color. That would give it away.

CB radio is in the 11-meter band. That means a half-wave dipole, the driven element of a beam antenna, would be 5.5 meters long. You'd need a "wide load" banner for that alone. But I expect you could make a more compact beam with loading coils on the elements.

549 My dearly departed Dad, gave 24 years to the U.S. Navy.

He joined in time to be part of the Occupation Forces in Japan. Served aboard the USS Valley Forge in Korea, as a Baker's Helper.

Got himself in to Sub School, earned his Dolphins.... then, got accepted by Rickover in to the 3rd Nuke class in Idaho Falls, ID.

Plank owner on the USS Snook, and did much sneak n' peek on various boats in Westpac. Some of which are mentioned in Sherry Sontag's book "Silent Warriors"

Suffered a heart attack while on the Gold Crew aboard the John Quincy Adams. Made E-8, ICC Chief first, though. Retired two years later, after serving as ICC instructor on shore duty.

Went on to start as a "tech" at Litton Laser Systems, in Orlando, FL. Retired from there as Senior Prototype Test Engineer.

Was a High School Dropout. Got his diploma from Navy schools. Earned his Associates in Electrical Engineering while at Litton.

I'd say he did pretty frikkin' well for himself.

Lost him on 13 Jan '10.

I think a toast is in order, here.

553 Speaking of radios, I have to go pick up a road radio on Friday for my next job. Some 40 miles up a logging/industrial road, and commercial users have to carry a radio and call their location every few km, so that other road users can anticipate a meeting on what can be a narrow, icy road. These are narrow-band VHF FM radios, with a whip antenna you glom onto the roof with a magnet. Reliable range is about 10 miles, which is all you need for the purpose.

coming in nowadays like that would not have the same opportunity for
education, training, or experience.

No joke, my last Navy electronics school was AVI-C7 in 1990, it was an associates and lower baccalaureate level course for which I earned a total of 37 credits. If I had been a smart guy I would have gone immediately to the base Navy College office and completed a few electives and had my AAS-EET, but noooo, I had to screw around and wait until the credits were all 10 plus years old (at which point they don't mean a fragging thing)...

Just before I retired I was teaching these kids basic electronics so they could pass a rating exam. Pathetic.

Similar case for me, went through EW "A" and "C" from 93-94 as booter (6 year enlistment option).

In 2010 I went through the Army's FA (Functional Area) 29 course, Electronic Warfare Officer, as a requirement for the contract I was on. No shit, I could have taught almost the entire course; I just wasn't up to speed on the MDMP stuff for Division and higher. Four years later and I'm still trying to make the Army understand how fucked up they are in EW.

Posted by: Farmer at January 01, 2015 02:32 AM (o/90i)

609 My Dad was USN. Other family in the Army. Uncle was a USAF Test Pilot at Edwards, in the Yeager era.

An observation, if you will. And GGE will understand this instantly.

The reason that the Navy has been so damn effective in EW, airframe and powerplant maintenance and the like is simply this:

Typical USAF or Army base. 30,000+ personnel. Using the USAF example. For an F-15 crew, there's a specialist on the radar. One for the radio. Another for the gun, the engines, the hydraulics, etc. Very good specialized training, for each and every one of them.

USN Nimitz class carrier. Total compliment, about 5,000 crew, air-wing compliment and others.

Those aircrewmen have to master a whole lot more than just one type of radar in one airframe. And more than just one turbine type. And multiple hydraulic systems in everything that flies on or off the damned deck.

To do that, they have to know their basics, the math, the physics and the mechanics. Down to the core, and out to the tips of their fingers.

A qualified ICC tech on a sub, could probably fix anything with electrons flowing therein.

When one has to DO more, with less.... especially in the military context...then, that's what tends to actually happen.

And it carries over to so much more in the daily military world, and would that it did so in the civilian world.

Now, if we could just cut about 50% of the flag-ranked brass, and put those budgets back into personnel, schools and active training, we'd be on a far better path.

Don't even get me going about USAF culture in the mid '70s. They thought every E-2 should be trained like an up and coming IBM middle manager.

Nary a martial thought in sight, there, either. Management. Nothing but management.

Boy Scout troops in the '70s, had a better martial spirit. But howdy, did those base's lawns have neat edging!

I almost got caught in that. Post 9/11 there came down from Echelons Above Reality a diktat that anyone from a different prior service who had joined the NG after 10/2001 had to go through Warrior Transition Course. My f'd up unit kept insisting that I had to go, as I had enlisted with them in June of '05. It took a year of me pointing out that I had joined the NG in '99 and was thus exempt from the requirement before they figured it out. I still don't understand what was so damn difficult about the dates in my fucking enlistment papers was so damn hard for them to figure out.

S'truth. You are going to be assigned to one airframe if you are in the airwing, but if you are ships company you are going to have to know them all, and just cause you are assigned to one airframe at one point doesn't mean you will stick with it. At one time I held qualifications on three different airframes, and anything that was electronic and not flight controls was mine.

After being shocked and pissed most of the morning, and then told by my unit to "stand by to stand by," I went into work. At the time I was a field tech for Pacific Bell. I spent most of the day on the roof of an apartment building in La Jolla watching the entire friggin' 3rd Fleet leave port and being pissed that I wasn't in the fight. Watching them roll out with Battle Ensigns flying did not help my disposition.

692 Country Singer.

Doing some very basic Bing searching. My family tree shows at least 9 direct relatives lost for the South, from South Carolina.

One, a full, first middle and last name, namesake.

Which calls for further research.

And, my Mom's side is from the Very Yankee North. My Grandfather was a Nicaragua Marine, on her side.

The stuff runs so deep, I'm thinking of paying a researcher to run the first few layers for me, just so I can jump start my knowledge.

I have never lived anywhere near my paternal family, and only tangentially near my maternal family. And it shows.

My 2015 will be greatly given to filling those voids in my knowledge.

Jim, I know of 6 direct ancestors (from Alabama) that wore the Grey, and have a list of extended family that raises that number to 47 spread across all of the South, all on my paternal side (adoptive family). I have another in that lineage that served with the Kershaw District militia of South Carolina in the Revolution. Unfortunately, only limited info on my Mom's side, other than they were carpetbaggers that came to Mississippi in 1866-67 from Indiana. Oddly (or not), that is the side of the family that has always been vociferously racist. My Dad's side seems to have always been completely ambivalent.

The R's control the House and Senate, and the rumor is that Dingy Harry has been told to stop blocking legislation. The 2014 election says he's been told and forced to stop.

There are also rumors that B.the Vryer might not be Speaker. I like these rumors, but I think that are just that.

I ended the year (have I mentioned this enough?) by wearing my Rick Perry "Wanted" T-shirt through the Austin Airport, past baggage claim, then out to wait for my ride, where I walked the entire length of the waiting area 3 or 4 times.

Life might turn out to be good this year.

733 lol Blanco,

been almost six years for me...heh.

not to mention this is how I have always wrote dates, due to my dad.

Posted by: SMFH at it all at January 01, 2015 03:29 AM (OsWis)

734 So, if anyone's still here...to say this New Year's Eve didn't end well for me is like calling World War II a minor skirmish.

I was designated driver for some friends -- two couples -- at a NYE party tonight. I don't usually enjoy these kinds of parties, because who wants to be reminded at midnight that they're still alone? Anyway, I did it so my friends could enjoy themselves and get home safely.

A fight broke out at the venue, and they closed early. Somewhere in the parking lot on the way to my car, one of the wives started getting belligerent, yelling, screaming, and giving her husband a black eye. I had to threaten to leave them there in the cold if she didn't stop. Needless to say, the ride back was awkward.

Hopefully, this isn't an omen for the rest of 2015.

I've been outside in 15 degree weather, and wasn't happy with it. Helps to explain my affection for "Aloha!".

I've been in houses where you had to run the fireplace to keep warm, and there were thermal belts based on proximity to it -- with bedrooms on the fringe with older windows not faring so well.

If you take the omen as "you took 'em where they needed to go and dropped 'em off", then it kinda looks a little more positive.

Might your brave and blessed heart find, within its own Soul, a harmony of peace.

I'll pray tonight for your peace of mind and tranquility of soul.

I thank you and those alongside you.

Your service was more than I have ever offered toward the Constitution of These Great United States of America.

Christ, Our Lord...

Allow these hearts their foundation of peace. May they stand on their honor and dignity for All-Time.

May we, as citizens live up to their sacrifice and Faith.

Allow us not, Dear God, to fall upon our swords; but to be brave and Faithful Brethren to out Constitutional Republic.

...In Jesus' Name, I pray

930 Steve Sabol, (who died last year), didn't write the song. He directed NFL Films. It was probably his Father that directed that film, actually.

"The Raider Theme" is famously replayed for its orchestral and musical movements.

John Facenda has narrated many an NFL Film, but few were as poetic as "The Autumn Wind is a Raider".

933 "The Autumn Wind" is a sports-themed poem written by former NFL Films President and co-founder Steve Sabol (son of founder Ed Sabol) describing the atmosphere autumn weather, as it relates to pro football season. It is synonymous with, and the unofficial team anthem of the NFL's Oakland Raiders and is often heard blaring out of the sound speakers at Raider games. Narrated by John Facenda, this 1974 production has been dubbed "The Battle Hymn of the Raider Nation".

938 The poem was first used for the team's official team yearbook film in 1974, of the same title, and also for NFL Films' hour-long recap of the 1974 season. Legend has it that when Raider owner and managing general partner Al Davis first heard "The Autumn Wind" song for the first time, he remained silent for a second before telling then NFL Films President Ed Sabol that he loved it, and that "it epitomized everything that the Raiders stood for". It has been used on numerous official NFL Films audio album soundtracks, most notably The Power & The Glory LP, featuring Facenda narrating over it, as well as numerous other Sam Spence-composed and conducted NFL Films Orchestra tracks.

I honestly cannot say that I remember it. I'd be willing to bet that Barry Sanders ran for 250 yards, while gaining 100.

He probably had only one touchdown when the Lions scored five...lol.

I think Scott Mitchell was their QB. He was a big SOB and probably scored a few TD's.

If I remember correctly, that douchebag was the QB for Oakland/LA... I cannot remember his name.

Ha ha. There is a former asst DA, now a retired judge that did the same thing in CLT in the middle of South Park Mall intersection, Fairview and Sharon back in the 70's
Car was stopped in the intersection, he was passed out and the car was running. He was pretty wild back then, BUT at the time he was an asst DA. He had left a bar after an unsuccessful pussy run.

Good Morning and Happy New Year Morons. Today is Thursday, January 01, 2015.

New Years Day celebrations got out of hand in Shanghai with a stampede that killed 38 people and injured 48 more. An eye witness said it was caused by someone throwing coupons out of a third floor window that looked like dollar bills. So yeah, the Chinese economy is doing real good when something that "looks like dollar bills" will cause a crowd to stampede.

I'm now of the firm opinion that there needs to be a Constitutional Amendment that states whenever a person is running for national office and is caught lying, they are executed on the spot. Then their family is billed for garbage removal.

I don't want these assholes off my lawn, I want them gone from this planet.

State and localities can pass their own statutes.

1140 While doing her family's Ancestry.com search, my wife found a couple errors/contradictions. Eventually figured them out with the help of another, non-related, Ancestry.com user. The main sources of confusion were mistaking a son for a father, or vice versa, and name changes upon arrival in the States. Her ancestors were Russian, so the spellings/pronunciations/translations got a bit dicey.

1158 RE @1101


The thing that aggravates the piss out of me is that this data has been easily available from multiple sources for decades. People like me who need to watch certain items have been tracking calories etc for years.


But most people simply ignore it. So the FDA comes out with an even more stupid law that will cost industry billions and the same people who are ignoring now will ignore the new one.


It is totally useless and actually in violation of a Congressional act that says they have to show the cost and justification for all new regulations. That law has been ignored since it was written.

1163 Ancestry.com offers free thirty day trials, which is more than enough time to do many generations worth of searches, but you're limited to one family "line" and don't get the same "support" a paying customer gets. It's pretty cool to see names/details from way back when. One of my wife's g-g-g-g-fathers was listed as traveling on a ship to the US, with five bucks in his pocket, working as the ship locksmith on the way over, then worked for a lens maker for his whole life. She'd never heard of him, but he was the first step to her being born here, not in some poor Urals village somewhere.

1177 @1163

My wife finished her DAR app about two years ago and that was fascinating. The DAR office in DC has millions of records. Their library is really cool.



I am lucky to have a very uncommon last name and ancestors that mostly stayed in Virginia, still they got here in 1640, so there is a lot of stuff to track down.



VA has all court house records on line. After the War of Northern Aggression, when the Yankees burned a lot of court houses, they started centralizing the records in Richmond.



It is pretty cool to go to the old court house in Montross, which did not get burned down, and read the ORIGINAL court docs from the 1600's

A few years ago Ace opened up for some new weekend COBs (there are some rules for those). He doesn't do that very often. I have never edited HTML and as delicate as this site is I was worried I would crash it and lock it up. When that happens it takes Pixy from NZ to fix it and due to time zone differences that can take a while.

He said that Pixy hadn't replied to emails in more than two months. Blog broke Monday May 12 & Pixy didn't fix that issue until after Election Day.

The Jefferson Room in the Library of Congress has all sorts of good stuff. I lost the direct line after the Revolutionary war. My family stayed in Westmoreland county and moved to Caroline Co, across the river in the late 1800. I can get to The War, my great grandfather was a Sgt in Army of N VA., but the early 1800 are still missing.
