Laws of Economics
No matter how good it makes you feel to raise the minimum wage, the laws of economics still applies. Hey Seattle, how's that $15 minimum wage working out for ya? Back to the 70's The bad old days of NYC are back. So what self defense weapons are legal to carry in NYC? Harsh words? If only they had a knife free zone. Moonlight Sonata
Compared to no coffee consumption, researchers estimated one cup a day was tied to a 22 percent lower risk of cirrhosis. With two cups, the risk dropped by 43 percent, while it declined 57 percent for three cups and 65 percent with four cups.Racism So having a picture taken of you in the middle of a facial is now considered racist.

I smoked banana peels. I worked in the banana fields on a kibbutz and we had bananas all over the place. So, one day we dried out a bunch of them (the stringy parts, really) and smoked them up. I got a headache. Not very enjoyable.

Unless these options are unabashedly conservative and only recruit conservative/non-prog people to work in them, you're only delaying the inevitable.
And not just that, but also "free" nations like Germany are "negotiating" with Facebook to update their TOS for citizens in order to preemptively label, say, unkind comments about "migrants", as racist and thus nuke them from the site.
Seeing stuff like this *almost* puts me on Team Let It Burn, but I think the burning times are inevitable regardless of my affiliation with Team LIB.

I live in a house with a small group of friends. An informal family. We're a sitcom, boys and girl, old and young, black and white, dog and cat.
The mistress of the house takes in strays, including the first two dogs, the cat, and me. The cat got along swimmingly with the dogs. They roll around and play together. The cat also resolutely ignored me for four years.
The cat, I'm sure, has ESP. The cat started buddying up to me about a month before the mistress took in another stray, in this case a boxer who really, really wants to eat the cat.
So now the cat basically lives with me. Good god cats could teach Obama a thing or two about narcissism. It's all cat all the time. Oh, you want to type on your laptop? No, I want to curl up on your laptop. You will pet me now. NOW. I shall stick my face in your face until you do exactly what I want.
Dogs at least are all cute and dopey and act as if they really like you. The cat is like, "if you do all the things I want I may not murder you in your sleep".

I liked what Garry Shandling said about men and women. He said that he picked some girl up at a bar and brought her to back to his house. They're about to have sex and the girl is thinking, hesitantly, "I can't believe I'm doing this. I don't even know this guy." And the guy's thinking, excitedly, "WOW! I can't believe I'm doing this. I don't even know this girl!!"

According to the husband, they can't pay for the F-35 while funding the A-10 and Gen. Walsh bet his career on the F-35, so that's why they're trying to shove the Warthog out the door. None of this debacle has made me happy, especially since the A-10 is my second favorite plane (my husband's being the first, of course).

How about some links about the Navy's total lack of commitment to CAS? Why do they get a pass (and before you say "Harrier", it has all the problems of F-35 and then some).
Speaking of naval aviation, they have dropped whole mission sets while retiring numerous types without replacement, so black shoe admirals could keep building unneeded billion dollar destroyers (and prematurely retire very capable ships without replacement). Where's the outrage there? I'd argue like hell that the nation's security has been far more undermined by the erosion of naval aviation than retiring the A-10 would cause.
$13 billion dollar Zumwalt?
LCS?
Tumblehome?
The navy being in the vanguard of every jackals diversity craze imaginable?
300 ship surface fleet while naval aviation is in tatters?
But no every gawdamn week its knee USAF in the crotch over the A-10, which has at best a marginal capability over other types and would be absolute dead meat over any kind of decent air defense network. Oh.....right. "Commander M." Gotcha. Parochialism must be served.
The Navy and Marines love to scream about the mote in the Air Force's eye, hoping no one will notice the giant redwood in their own.

I do not believe the premise that the maintenance costs of a mature airframe that has been proven to be perhaps the best warplane built in a generation is within several orders of magnitude of the cost of the F-35.
It's a fucking rounding error. That's the military playing with numbers.

I think this is a good solution, but don't they always trot out the "Do not have infrastructure" argument every time it comes up? It makes logical sense to me however: a plane that the air force does not want but is desperately loved by the ground forces, being in the same service should make things easier to coordinate (maybe), etc.

My wife and I had taken our dogs to a local, relatively little-used park when I noticed half a dozen cars parked, occupied, across from the only building in the park. WTF?, I thought, and mentioned it to a park ranger.
"Fags," he said. The building held the restrooms. I was embarrassed that I hadn't made the connection myself.

Oh kami have we keelhauled the Navy repeatedly over the LCS fiasco. LCS-3 is now stranded overseas with an engineering casualty that is strangely similar to the casualty its newer sister ship LCS-5 suffered. To whit stripped gears.
Or how the JSF/F-35 has turned into TFX II the Sequel because apparently it can't fly or fight. And it only carries 125 rounds for its 25mm gun which still has issues compared to the A-10 and its 30mm with more than 1,000 rds..
The seeds of NavAir going Tango Uniform go all the way back to the Clinton era Peace Dividend which killed off the A-6F and new build F-14Ds. So NavAir was forced to put even more of its eggs into the F-18 Mafia basket.

If you don't answer the former you're either an idiot or so emotionally involved you're incapable of thinking straight.
And yet at present the evil incompetent USAF (how come Navy and Marines never get knee-capped over F-35, when it was the Marines demand for STOVL that fundamentally compromised the design in the first place?) has more A-10s in service than F-15s.

The thing about "shadowbanned" is that (a) it's supposed to be secret, and (b) it's supposed to be invisible to the bannee, beyond a rapid decrease in responses ["maybe I've become less interesting..."]. I'm wondering how that works in practice.

F-105 Thunderchief. And the B-58 Hustler (though a bomber) also looked cool as hell.

Cocnut-knocking, the called it, those low-altitude, high-speed runs before you pop up to toss bomb the target.
I've seen pictures of the 105 - there's no way the cockpit on that thing was big enough to hold the balls of the men who pulled that kinda duty.

Imagine what those old jets would do with a modern powerplant in 'em?
Sure, they lack the wing area and electronics, etc. But most of their sins were due to being very underpowered by today's standards. A wave-off at the fantail was far more nip n' tuck then, than now.
And speaking of medium delivery, the FB-111 was one hell of a graceful plane in the air, even if it was a few tens of thousands of pounds too fat for either fighter or carrier standards.
That old saw about "if it looks right, it'll fly right", gave us one hell of a lot of absolutely beautiful planes, didn't it.

No, but I knew an ER doc who said that hippies who tried it got very sick and ended up puking all over the ER and generally freaking out. Apparently nutmeg takes a couple hours to produce any effects, so the trippers would decide the first dose wasn't working, so they'd take some more and . . . then ask a buddy to call 911 when the nausea really hit.

Voting for Trump will be one of the most difficult things I've ever done if he wins the GOP nomination. A contest between Trump and Hillary will be like choosing between Huey Long and Evita Peron. It's that bad. They--Trump and Hillary--are that bad.
I'm guessing Hillary wins. She won't be indicted for her crimes and Trump's greatest political negative in purely pragmatic terms--the number of people who absolutely will not vote for him--is simply too high, in my view.
I still don't get it. I look at Trump and see a dime store demagogue. I mean, the guy's brazenly transparent, at least to me. Trump supporters look at him and see something else.
But how can you see something else? For just one example, Trump gamed the system to eminent domain the shit out of a little old lady to build a limousine parking garage. Seriously, as a Trump supporter, how in the world do you rationalize that kind of behavior? What he did was venal and petty to the point of a cartoon villain rubbing his hands and twirling his mustache. Do you not get that sort of thing is--oh what's the word? Oh, yeah: Wrong. Evil. Bad. Reprehensible. Morally bankrupt.
In the end, we get what we deserve. I just never saw this one coming: Divine retribution in the form of a reality TV star.

Well, i don't know. But one time in high school a friend and i were refused the sale of duct tape because we were under 18. When we asked why we were told it was because kids could roll it up and smoke it.
Well, being teenagers and having nothing better to do i guess, my friend decided to take some duct tape (which i guess we managed to get somehow!) and roll it up.
Well morons, let me share with you that we never could figure out how people smoked that, it just caught fire!
But you know, we never would have thought to try if that sales clerk hadn't mentioned it. Funny how that works.

F-105D "Cherry Girl" had its nude nose art painted over while in Vietnam. Someone found it offensive because the naked gal had the probe refueling port right between her spread legs. After restoration with the nose art, it got censored again.
The amazing thing is the location of the refueling port of the F-105. It is located in front of the pilot and slightly to the left. Since it takes a 13ft ladder to get into an F-105 cockpit, the only people who would ever see the nose art are the guys in the boom operator's position on the KC-135s or in the tower.

When we lived on Lackland AFB, we had what I called "Dogfight Fridays." Almost every Friday, the F-16s would be up and chasing each other near our house (about 2 miles from the flightline). Fun to watch on a clear day from our yard.
But one Friday I happened to be walking though the kitchen, and there was a ear-splitting roar right above my head like the world had ended. I ran outside, thinking that our house had been hit or something, only to see the tail of an F-22 on afterburner as he was chasing down an F-16.
I think my heart started beating again once he was over the horizon.......

Amazing F8F footnotes. The US Navy granted Grumman permission to build for Al Williams a pure civilian Bearcat. Minus the armor and guns that thing was a ball of fire, it would scoot. Grumman also built from -1 and -2 parts another Bearcat that they used for company business.

Where is it really going to be?
North to 24, then through the tunnel. First exit. Go north into the hills.
There's talk about alternating sites each month, one north, one south. Apparently, about as many members live north of the Straits as down here, so the old location was a good compromise. It's gone now, so we need a new location. The general opinion is that the new site might be the best, as moving around would fragment the club, moving south would lose perhaps 1/3, and this new place seems to be an excellent fit ... and with barbecuing facilities.

Or how the JSF/F-35 has turned into TFX II the Sequel because apparently it can't fly or fight. And it only carries 125 rounds for its 25mm gun which still has issues compared to the A-10 and its 30mm with more than 1,000 rds..
The seeds of NavAir going Tango Uniform go all the way back to the Clinton era Peace Dividend which killed off the A-6F and new build F-14Ds. So NavAir was forced to put even more of its eggs into the F-18 Mafia basket.

I've seen maybe 15 minutes of Requiem. AvP was better but meh on later attempts to watch it. I liked Predators much more than either and really that holds the better premise for an AvP movie than having it take place on present day earth.

Skip all others and drop the coin for a bottle of Pernod absinthe. There's other brands out there, but they are teh suck....
Me? When I've had two, I can see dreamy green flashes when I close my eyes, and I have the most vivid dreams afterward.... Really very nice, but definitely an "ever now and then" sort of thing. Drinking it regularly would certainly make you insane or dead, or insane and then dead.

I went for my first run since surgery last November. It's a half mile walk to the greenbelt, and as I turned the corner to go from the sidewalk to the greenbelt, there's a family maybe 20 yards away, mom, dad, kid, dog. Dad has dog on a leash, but it's a retractable leash and he's paying attention to kid.
As I get closer, the leash keeps extending until dad and kid are on the far left of the path and the dog, a fat little bulldog, is on the right. Ok, no problem, I duck into the grass and keep going. About five feet away, dog charges me. There's a severe slope to my right leading to a drainage ditch. So I try to step past and over the dog, but I didn't quite make it.
He took a good bite to my left knee, and that fucker had a strong bite. Mom and dad were like "did he bite you?" No, dumbass, my leg just decided to start leaking fluid just now.
It's all good, I dumped some peroxide on the cuts after the run, and now it's just swollen and a little painful. But still, if you own a dog, don't be that dog owner.
I also realized how much I've mellowed out lately. A year or two ago I would have killed the dog and put the owner in the hospital.

Eurofighter Typhoon traces its lineage all the way back to 1981 after the collapse of the European Combat Fighter program. And they expected to have this plane flying in 1987. I would say they thoroughly missed the mark.
The F-35 is only 5 years younger when the USMC went looking for a replacement for the AV-8 Harrier. That program was called Joint Advanced Strike Technology because USMC was teaming up with Britain. And the F-35 has followed the Eurofighter in missing its in service date.
Now compare to the LWF competitors. The YF-16 and YF-17. The requirements were issued in 1972 for the LWF. And the first YF-16 took flight in January 1974, a mere 22 months after General Dynamics had received funding with the YF-17 taking flight in June 1974. And by 1980, more than 100 F-16s were already in service with the USAF.

I'd get their names, if for no other reason, just to shit on their doorstep.
...were I that sort of individual.
I've got a nice 8' x 4' scar on my leg from a doggie. Took a nice chunk out of my six-year-old leg. My Dad says I barely cried. I guess I was in shock.
I do remember watching Sanford and Son in the waiting room, though. And when they removed the stitches. That part actually hurt.

Posted by: DC in River City at February 21, 2016 12:57 AM (e+1S5)
^^^This.
I was trying to explain this to someone the other day -- if you're thinking of threatening someone, or you're thinking of going lawless and doing some bullshit vandalism slapfight....kill him. It's a single act that will settle all claims, it's less traceable than repeated acts or vandalism, and it's less traceable than threats. Suing someone just creates a paper trail. And, chances are, if you're seriously considering killing someone, there are a couple of dozen other people also thinking about it -- and many of them will have stupidly threatened the guy or committed random acts of vandalism and would be better suspects.
But if it's not worth killing over, knock off the slapfights or petty crimes -- the price for such ineffective bullshit far exceeds any benefits. Write the guy a nasty letter or shoot out his windows, and you have a 50% chance of going to jail for multiple years. Show no emotion and shoot him the first chance you get, you have a 2% chance of going to jail for life (assuming you're smart enough to pick up your brass).

I put it on the ONT last night. I don't want to link it. More fun and games today here at home. First off, my well pump has died. Draws current, no pumpie. Four hundred feet down the well, it is. Both the start and run windings pull juice, but not enough to pop the 15 amp breaker. Weird. I think I will try jolting it with a shot of 220 tomorrow. Can't hurt anything; if it starts, and continues running once once put back to 120, I win. If jolting it with 220 fails to start it, or burns it out, well, it had to be pulled from the well anyway.
So, then I drove my 2008 Suburban to town this afternoon to get mail and grub. Park across the street from the post office, pull key part-way out of ignition, close door, and the damn thing locks itself up! So I stand there, doggeh locked in truck, and me locked out. I walked a block down the street to the bar, met a neighbor there, and got a ride to my house, fetched the spare key, and the remote on it opened the door OK. Note to self: take key out all the way!

Actually, it's a revolver made by Dan Wesson. I forget the model, but you could adjust the cylinder gap enough to make the suppressor effective.

Well supposedly, the microstamping is super hard to do. IF you are able to find out one of those numbers, you will also need to know how to do the stamping or someone who does.

You forgot duct tape.
Reminds me. Long time ago when the earth was barely formed, a friend said he knew a chemistry student at the university who could make some MDA. Dimethyltryptamine, maan! It's got "trip" right there in the name!
I never cared for chemicals, but what the hey, I was young and extra stupid that week. One long road trip and a few dollars later, we got back, and following instructions added it to some weed in a joint and lit up.
Puke! Nausea! Headache! Ruined weed!
I tried to get my friend to take the barely-smoked j home with him, but he insisted on leaving it with me.
For years, it was a running joke, he'd come by, and I'd offer him that ol' j. Noooo, thanks. Didn't matter how much we might want a hit of something, how empty the stash box, we would not touch that. I think he brought his brother by one time, and he tried it. Hilarity ensued.
Eventually, in a phit of purity, it got thrown out. Might still be burning a hole in some landfill somewhere.
Come to think of it, what the chem kid made for us was diethyl, not dimethyl. Stunk in any case.
...You know what worked? I'll tell ya what worked. A four-finger bag of Mexican ditch weed for $10. That worked.
Ain't it the truth? Or, well, used to be.

From what I've seen the implementation of micro-stamping is mainly micro-text on the tip of the firing pin (possibly 2D barcode patterns as well). Others methods involve the breech face or extractor. Note that all of these are vulnerable to a dremel or parts replacement. Which is legal...for now.

Even other animals he just wants to meet. "Oooo another dog" or "That's weird looking dog" for cats and other critters. If he howls its because he can't get to them. And very few will cause his hair to raise, and even then he is looking to sniff and say "Hello." I can't really think of a time he instigated an aggressive confrontation with another dog.

There are actually several tests for vicious dogs -- e.g. http://atts.org/tt-test-description/ . Dogs should be family-centric, protective, vigilant, and aggressive "on-turf" (i.e. inside the home), while being family-centric, social, accepting, and respectful "off-turf" (e.g. at a park).

The reactions of a changeless God, in the execution of his eternal purpose, may seem to vary in accordance with the changing attitude and the shifting minds of his created intelligences; that is, they may apparently and superficially vary; but underneath the surface and beneath all outward manifestations, there is still present the changeless purpose, the everlasting plan, of the eternal God.

-Fight
-Flight
-Avoidance
-Submission
An overactive, happy dog can trigger an avoiding dog out of insecurity. The dog is not aggressive, but it is not comfortable and has not been socialized.
Likewise, the overactive dog's owner should be watching for signs from other dogs.
"Territorial" dogs are that way because the owner doesn't lead them on the walks. If they walk them at all. That is the best way to get to know the natural tendencies of your dog and it should be done early and often.

Jeb dropped out!
Jeb dropped out!
That fact alone makes today a Good Day, whatever else the results were.
The only two stragglers now are Kasich and Carson, and I doubt they'll stay in the race much longer. I mean, what do you gain by slogging ever onward when there is zero chance of winning?
So that means Ye Shytte Has Gottene Real.
It's now a straight-up five-person race (I was gonna say "five-man race," but then remembered that Rubio is still but a boy), without any distractions.
Rubio will get the Bush voters, and Cruz will get the Carson voters, putting both within striking distance of Trump. On the Commie side, Comrade Sanders and Commissar Clinton remain essentially tied in every result and poll.
So not only are we in a five-person race, but a five-person head-to-head-to-head-to-head-to-head race, all abreast coming around the clubhouse turn.
Has this ever happened before in American politics? I don't think so.

It went on to become the most versatile airframe of the allies , if not all of the planes built during the war with the possible exception of the Ju-88.
Although considered obsolete by the start of the war the P-40 Warhawk/KittyHawk served in every theater of the war from beginning to the end. It just looks like a warplane from every angle to me.

Rubio's showing in SC depressed the hell out of me. With Bush dropping out, his votes will go to Rubio. Kashich won't be around much longer. His votes will go to Rubio. Carson's voters will be split among the other candidates.
Which means that Rubio will be head-to-head with Trump, if not the outright front-runner. Game, set, and match for the GOPe.

I don't remember who it was, but somebody said here about six months ago or more that Bush was just a stalking horse for Rubio, who is the GOPe's real choice.
It made perfect sense to me. The idea is that conservatives would scream NOOOOOO at the thought of another Bush, but could be persuaded to "settle" for Rubio.

Ohio is a fucked-up State. I enjoy living in an area that can sway an election, but I worry about the influence that Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati have on the electorate.
We used to have Twenty-Three electoral votes when I was in middle-school. People move away for good reason. We now have, what? --Sixteen?
