Overnight Open Thread (7-26-2016)

Quote of the Day I - Motives Unclear Edition

Such is the state of affairs in Germany right now that there were two horrifying attacks by refugees in a single day yesterday. A Syrian refugee in a town south of Stuttgart murdered a pregnant woman with a meat cleaver and then attacked strangers in the street, wounding two people before he was hit by a car and arrested. Police have said the motive in that case was personal.

The second attack took place Sunday evening at an open air concert in the city of Ansbach where a suicide bomber, 27-year-old Mohammad Daleel, killed himself and injured 15 people. Authorities have now found a video in which the bomber pledged allegiance to ISIS.

Quote of the Day II

The circumstances of the attack raise yet more questions about the French government's response to the threat of terrorism. One of the attackers reportedly was a convicted terrorist being monitored with an electronic tag while living with his parents. He was allowed out unsupervised between 8.30 a.m. and 12.30 p.m. The mass he attacked began at 9 a.m.

Quote of the Day III

CalPERS on Monday announced a preliminary net return of 0.61% for the fiscal year ended June 30.

The latest fiscal-year return, coming on top of 2.4% in the prior year, means CalPERS has not met its expected 7.5% rate of return for the last 20 years, Ted Eliopoulos, chief investment officer, disclosed Monday at a press briefing on the returns.

These days CalPERS management is mainly focused on important things like getting more climate change activists onto corporate boards and divesting from icky firearms-related companies.

The Great Transgender Cover-up at the DNC

The all-gender bathrooms are a convention-only sham and literally a cover-up. Note though that they only made the women's bathrooms all-gender - the men's bathrooms were left alone. Which is terrible.

Report: ISIS Recruiter Openly Visited Danish Refugee Center Looking For Fighters

Speaking to DR Bornholm, former Danish intelligence service PET chief Hans Jørgen Bonnichsen said that this was both a rare and serious incident.

...He finds the whole episode to be an unlikely or at least ill-conceived attempt at radicalising people, however.

"Isis wouldn't be dumb enough to allow a man to go around telling strangers he is working on their behalf. Presenting yourself as a member of a terrorist organisation is almost a violation of the law."

Almost.

9 Poe's Law, University Edition

If you were told a university to combat “toxic masculinity” setting up programs with acronyms like "BALLS," "DUDES," or "PENIS," would you think that this is legitimate, or a case of Poe's Law where parody becomes indistinguishable from reality? The answer is both.

Observations:

- AIDS dementia is a bitch
- I have NEVER seen that much makeup on a living human being, although have on corpses in coffins
- Ivanka can have my baby anytime, how about we get started now?
- ABC is preparing battle space for Chels political campaign by split screening her with daddy
- Chels has billions, why not plastic surgery> she really DOES look like Howdy Doody
- DNC/et al HATES police
- Ivanka can get on top if she wants, hell, Ivana can join in if she wants...
- The utter and complete embracing of everything bad in this country provides a reliable enemy list
- Uh, Ivanka?

It is actually. Their sauce is a type of fresh pack (a sauce made from... sauce that is made at a lower temp than others. It gives a slightly different, greener taste to the tomato.) As such, it has to be made when the tomato pick is going on in California, which means it takes place usually between late July and early September, at the latest (because by then the tomatoes that have not been picked are rotting in the fields.)

Pizza Hut standard sauce is very plain by itself. Mostly black pepper to taste- and salt. Their Sweet sauce (for the big new yorker style) has 832 lbs of HFCS per 4000 lb batch (this is a concentrate.)

Domino's has by far the most complex and best tasting sauce (great red pepper note, with just the right amount of sweetness.) Their toppings kind of suck, which ruin it.

Fredericksurg, TX - hot.

Estonia - I said that I'd learn Estonian if she'd learn Russian so that between us we could communicate with everyone, but she had trouble with the alphabet. (She calls one of the letters "spider" and she hates spiders so I'm guessing this plan won't work.)

That said, someone accomplished with at least mid-level gunsmithing skills, and who could have the necessary tooling and machinery shipped via container in order to properly set up shop. That person would be set for life in a place like Paraguay, Panama or such.

My father's family spent a great deal of time in Cuba prior to Castro. They had good friends there who, post-Castro, wrote very sad letters about the state of things. They finally fled, with only a suitcase each, and re-settled here. But it meant starting over, which was very difficult for the old folks.

I still have their letters.

After all that she looked a lot less like Webb...now, puffy from just having a second baby, all that work was wasted, she looks just like him again.

536 So, lately, scavenging has been berry, berry good to me. Saturday, I went to the dump to dispose of the usual kitchen trash, and checked out the metal pile, as is my wont. Came home with not one, but three 10HP Briggs and Stratton engines. And a Rockwell Beaver table saw, complete with rip fence and table extensions on each side so that the user can rip a sheet of plywood without it falling off to either side. No motor, but the arbor bearings seem to be fine.


Of the three Briggs engines (possibly off grain augers) one is seized tight, but is complete with all parts, one can be cranked but refuses to fire (no spark) and has internal noises, and one fired up a ran a few seconds, when primed with gasoline down the air intake.


Then yesterday evening, I go into town to collect my mail, and have a beer at the hotel, and there is a contractor out behind the hotel, taking aluminum-framed winodws apart to salvage the aluminum. On top of the pile in his truck, was an old window-shaker air conditioner. I had a beer, and went out and asked, "You want that air conditioner? I'll give ten bucks for it if it blows cold when we plug it in." "Well, I was going to take it home, and salvage the copper out of it, but if I can get ten bucks for it now, why not?" So we lug it into the bar (it is a heavy sucker), set it on a table, and plug it into the extension cord that was feeding the coin-operated punching bag game. "Snap" goes the breaker on the wall behind the bar. Barmaid is perturbed. Buddy goes back, throws the breaker again, and the A/C hums into life, and within 20 seconds, it's blowing cold like a champ. I hand him his ten-spot, we exchange high fives, and he goes off on his business. I have another beer, and then load the beast into the back of the pickup, and tote it home. It's an Electrohome A/C, made in Canada, and probably dates to the 1970's, so it has the deadly planet-killing Freon in it, which means it will probably continue to work until the Sun goes Red Giant.

Many places here in Alberta, too. But this is a small town, and the staff at the dump transfer station know me, and the other scavengers, and we have a green light, for now. The yucky stuff goes into bins, so the metal pile, while I wouldn't want to eat off it, is tolerably clean to handle. And some of the stuff people throw away is either perfectly good, or needs only a little basic repair.


And from time to time, I have dropped off some large loads of scrap metal, so the county gets the same scrap value from the metal pile as they would have, had I not been "shopping". There are a few of us pickers, and we have our own unique interests, and get along fine. It's a win for all concerned.

Heh. You know, the funny thing is, the old Freon, I think it is R22 they used in domestic air conditioners, is a more efficient heat transfer fluid than the the new shit. So the old machines get more BTUs shuffled around per kWh of energy consumed, meaning they do less violence to the planet than the new ones. (pretending to go along with the false notion that using energy causes Gerbil Worming)

Mike, you know what you and I are doing, is trading upon knowledge, or at least the willingness to seek out and acquire knowledge, to see the potential for profit (or at least personal satisfaction) in redeeming a piece of so-called "scrap" to some form of usefulness. I know I will never make a dollar off that old A/C. But I can clean it up, make some grilles for it, which it lacks, and haul it down to Arizona, and bung it into the wall of my house there, and make it earn its keep. And there is $99 that won't go to the People's Republic of China by way of Walmart for another dinky Haier air conditioner that doesn't chill as well.


One doesn't need to be some sort of guru of all things electrical and mechanical to make this sort of scavenging work. All one needs is faith in one's own ability to learn by doing. And the Internet has placed a lot of once-arcane knowledge at our very finger tips, cannot forget that.

In the SF Bay Area, we have the El Cerrito Recycling Center.

It's a pretty spiffy place, with a wide semi-circle of dozens of clearly labels humungous dumpsters into which one can chuck any kind of imaginable recyclable material Five different kinds of plastics, cardboard, paper, every kind of metal, every kind of glass, even expired prescription medicines, batteries, neon lightbulbs, styrofoam -- literally everything that can be reused or recycled.

But all of that fades into the background compared to one category: books.

Originally, they just had a big dumpster for unwanted books you could dump in there, to be pulped and made eventually into new books. But so many people starting reaching into the dumpster to extract books that they made a whole separate section of the recycling center devoted to any and all printed matter: Now it is a huge barn-like-structure that is lined with shelves and also has several huge waist-high bins. And it is CONSTANTLY buzzing with activity: half the people are there dumping off and getting rid of old books and magazines (and other printed ephemera), while the other half are pouncing on and carting away all those books and magazines. At any given moment there are 20 or 30 people furiously pawing through the books.

The recycling center at first discouraged this, but after a while just gave up, and now officially allow it. But every now and then they have to send out a staffer with a megaphone to placate the seething mobs of scavengers who sometimes descend on donors before they can even get the boxes of books out of their trunks: "People! Back away from the vehicles! Let the folks donating books at least reach the bins unmolested!" And like a horde of zombies they briefly back off. But as soon as the books are upended into the bins -- zzamm! people practically dive in to get them.

It's quite a scene -- a scavengers' paradise.

And yes, I admit to being one of those scavengers every now and then when I find myself in the vicinity. I have discovered quite a number of amazing finds there.

Nope. Haven't done so for decades. You gotta buy.

You can sell your used books to them, and then spend the credit slip you were paid, but the ratio is like 4-to-1 at a minimum -- you must sell about four books to earn enough to buy one book back.

I've subscribed to National Geographic since 1970, and by visiting flea markets and yard sales extended my collection back to 1960, with a smattering of issues before that.

In the mid-80s I briefly worked at a local recycling center. It handled metal, glass, and paper, but there was no book drop-off like that.

One day, a man came by with a trunkload of old magazines to drop off. I took one look and said, "Wait a minute. Let me back my car up here." We loaded the boxes directly from his car into mine.

And that's how I extended my collection back to 1949. Most of those magazines were in nearly pristine condition. What an amazing find. They would have simply gone into the shredder if not for me.

Depends on what you mean by "warm water". If you just mean "doesn't freeze", anywhere from Southeast Alaska all the way up to Valdez will fill the bill (that's why the Alaska Pipeline terminal is in Valdez -- it's the furthest north ice-free port).

He was truly one of the great American woodsmen, and in many ways the father of the primitive camping movement of today. His invention of the knife named for him and his classic book Camping & Woodcraft (actually a compilation of what were originally 2 short books) alone make him a giant.

But he was also a raging alcoholic (a major factor in his early death in a car crash) and he successfully pushed hard for the Fed takeover of public lands that were under local or state control. I know that in his era he didn't foresee what a terrible idea that would turn out to be. Maybe he should have. There's an unsavory sense of "I enjoyed MY freedom, now I'll make damn sure you don't have any once I'm dead" in some of his writings.

When the commies did one of their so called 5 year plans, because they needed engineers they went out and arrested 30,000 of them and used them as slave labor. It sounds absurd but it is true. And these are the people the left idolized and still do.

610 The tent remains unopened for the season. My favorite camping spot nearby was taken out of commission by a deadfall tree this spring. It got caught at a 45° angle by two other trees and hung there right over where the tent should be pitched. Two weeks ago they finally got around to taking it out. Woo-hoo!, right? Wrong-O. Yesterday I checked it out. The site's now under a foot of water. Evidently this is not the year to camp.

619 The only time things ever got hairy was when a buddy and I were camped out on a ledge about 30 feet up from the floor of a canyon in Utah.

There was a beautiful mountain stream running through the valley, rare enough in the desert and absolutely essential for primitive camping. Then one night it rained, and of course in the desert any rain can be a disaster. The bucolic stream became a raging river of red mud. I hand-cranked my radio and tuned to the National Weather Service, and learned that the rain was going to continue for several hours. Not good. (no cell service out there but the NWS came through on the radio!) We had to load up and break camp in a big hurry, in a torrential downpour, at 6:00 in the AM with no coffee.

We had wade in the stream in stetches where the trail was washed out. Trekking poles dug into the stream bed really saved the day. I still almost went down once or twice. Fording a raging stream with a 75-lb. pack on your back is challenging to say the least.

But we survived just fine, with an adventure story to tell, thanks to preparation and knowing what we were doing. There's a reason we made camp 30 feet up from the canyon floor in the first place, and why we made sure we had trekking poles and a crank-radio.

Thanks for the reminder. I ran across a crank radio the other day. Into the camping box it goes.

Your story reminds me of a river tale. Out in a flatboat fishing on the river with a storm looming. Time to pack it in and go home. But the motor won't go into "Forward". And you can't go faster than a crawl in reverse or you get water over the transom. We backed up the river at barely over an idle in a driving rainstorm for three miles. One of us remarked that some day we would look back on the experience and laugh. It took three years.

Actually, I do have one story.

It concerns the Victorian poet Robert Browning. In 1840, he composed Sordello, a poem which critics thought was deliberately obscure and which damaged the reputation he had been achieving.

It seems that, years later at a public reading, a young lady asked him to explain a particular stanza in Sordello, holding out a copy to him. Browning looked over the piece for a little while, then sighed, "Madam, when I wrote that, only God and I knew what it meant. Now, after reading it over twice. . .God alone knows."

In 1846, Browning married Elizabeth Barrett, a fellow poet. In 1934, MGM released The Barretts of Wimpole Street, a fictionalized retelling of their courtship. It starred Norma Shearer as Barrett, so here she is:

Yes, and we've heard the "best" parts of it already: (1) another phony "stimulus" spending plan to repair our "crumbling infrastructure" (you know, that very same infrastructure that was supposed to have been repaired by Barry's 2009 trillion-dollar-plus spending, which didn't actually make the repairs, but did enhance the bank accounts of lots and lots of Barry's corrupt Dim cronies); (2) "free" college for all (which is just going to be another Dim spending scam of money we don't have, on things we don't need; and (3) lowering the Medicare eligibility age to 55, because since Medicare is already broke, what could make more sense than to pile on millions more recipients?

Hillary's "plan" is a tale told by an idiot. After 8 years of Obama spending trillions of dollars we don't have while simultaneously expanding the size and reach of our corrupt, incompetent federal bureaucracy, Hillary's plan is -- more of the same.

691 The MFM all the down to the local news on the radio here today is shouting the amazing historic news of the first woman to be nominated to run for President.


No mention that she had been pushed by them as the leading candidate for the past 8 years and she had to get it through underhanded skullduggery by the DNC.


I'm glad I no longer have TV news are I would have to keep a bucket next to my chair to puke in all day long.


I predict the lowest turnout election in the past 100 years this time.

694 Good Morning Morons. Today is Wednesday, July 27, 2016. On this day in 1919 the Chicago Race Riot erupted leading to 38 fatalities and 537 injuries over a five-day period. The riot was sparked by an incident but had been building for some time due to tensions from incoming Southern blacks and the existing ethnic Irish who were already settled in the area. Posted by: Vic We Have No Party


Funny you should mention that. I was out in cinncinatti ohio recently. I was looking up population of town and started reading about its history. Similar to above it was settled by a lot of germans who moved there from Pennsylvania, and it also had a history of race riots going back one hundred years. Some common denominator there, can't put my finger on it though.

I disagree. I see turn out to be average to a bit above average. The "enthusiasm gap" heavily favors the (R) side. I will also predict that the hillzebub landslide predicted by the eyeores, isn't happening at all.

She has already promised a "tax increase" on the "rich". But we all know how that works for Democrats. Every time they push a tax increase through, it is for everybody except the free shit army and instead of reducing the deficit, they increase spending more than the tax increase and the deficit increases. The huge debt has NEVER been reduced since Silent Cal was in office.


That is exactly what happened when RINO Bush - I read their lips and was sucked in for a tax increase to "reduce the deficit".

709 Saw that Anthony Weiner, the fugly and disgraced house-husband of Hillary's MB gal-pal Huma, said that if Donald Trump Jr. ran for mayor of NYC, Weiner would run against him so that he could "beat him like a rented mule."

Trump, Jr., responded that Weiner "probably shouldn't be talking about beating anything ever again" and told him to slither back to his cave.

712 Last week on the first night of the RNC convention only PBS broadcasted coverage and they talked over almost all of it that I saw. I finally settled on YouTube. One camera, no production but no commercials or commentary either.

This week the DNC had their first night on every local OTA channel. I checked YouYTube and the feeds I found were two and three camera feeds, glowing promos of dems sprinkled throughout.

I had to look for the repubs and I can't get away from the dems. And then I see the report that the dems 'slightly' beat the repubs opening night viewership.

The alphabets are a joke and yes it has spread to our local stations.

713 I think one of the biggest riots in the nations history was the New York draft riots. Only indirectly race related. The northern liberals, pushing for the abolition of slavery (a laudable goal, but let me continue...) were suddenly served draft notices to now put the courage of their convictions (and their own lives) on the line.

It got nasty.

Yes, the NYC draft riots were bigger, but the ones we are talking about were directed soley at IL.


They were called the NYC draft riots by the liberal media but they were not really draft riots so much as anti-Lincoln's War riots. Yes, the shitty way the draft was implemented in the North was an issue, but not the leading cause of the riots. And the rampaging crowd beat or killed any black that was unlucky enough to be in the area of the riot. MA was the one who was pushing so hard for war with the South. I suspect that was because their radical Senator was beat nearly to death with that gutta-purcha cane.


At the time NYC was closely aligned with the South as they were major trading partners and they were totally opposed to the war.

This, that or the other think about Trump his own self, but his kids are Dangerous in the Extreme. Smart, well-spoken, raised rich and confident, lots of "hybrid vigor." People who can make things happen, and know what those things mean. It's like we had an actual upper class in this country again.

Something that gets said a lot in this former-10-Fortune-500 town: "I miss the rich. They were fun to have around." The hospital administrators and such that we have now have higher annual incomes than the millionaires did, but they're just upper-upper middle class. They live in very large...ranch houses. No cattle.

The FBI will indite anyone who read or commented on Clinton or DNC emails as co-conspirators.
