Climate Change
Americans not willing to pay much to battle climate change. That's because it's a fools errand. The climate is gonna do what it wants to do. Freezing Means Melting Heh. The Polar Ocean Challenge: "We were lucky to get through."For climate alarmists, freezing means melting. The were held up for over a month by excess ice in the Northeast Passage, and only got through because a storm pushed the ice off-shore. Then they raced to get through the Northwest Passage, and made it by a matter of hours before it froze up. Their conclusion : "very obvious melting"Blue Stahli OK, this is gonna be my workout music for the week. You'll get a speeding ticket if you drive to it.
candidates must complete modules in Arctic survival, counterterrorism, urban warfare, long-range patrols, and airborne operations. According to the Norwegian Special Operations Forces Command, only 13 of the unit's 317 candidates made it through the Jegertroppen course in 2014 - a 96% attrition rate that is similar to the Forsvarets Spesialkommando's. 2015 posted similar numbers.Eagle vs Drone Action occurs at 1:50 timeframe.

John Donne once said that "no man is an island". Society has evolved, does evolve, and will evolve, with the actions of each to one degree or another affecting it and being affected by it. Society isn't some abstract idea or social construct of the conspiratorial vein. The libertarian ideal that everyone can do what they want and anything not affecting others in the strictest 1st degree will not have a depreciative or dilatory effect others, and thus society, is based upon a blind faith that the way, the truth, the light, of Randian enlightenment can not, and will not, be snuffed out a la Anthem because the choices of others does not, in the strictest 1st degree, command another.

"Their nationally representative poll found
that 43% of Americans were unwilling to pay an additional $1 per month
in their electricity bill to combat climate change -- and a large majority
were unwilling to pay $10 per month."
The rude reality, although most Americans are too dopey and disconnected and distracted to have figured this out, is that in most of the country, ordinary consumers are already getting socked with increased monthly costs FAR in excess of these thresholds, due to things like "renewables" mandates.

I personally incline to the concept that he was born in Hawaii under circumstances other than the official story, probably having to do with Frank Marshall Davis. And that he later made up the Kenya stuff for what at that stage in his life were the social and academic advantages accruing to exotic foreign origin.
On the other hand, there were all those Kenyan kin of Obama's who were happy to point to the village hut where he had entered the world to bless us all with his omniscient magnificence. Then it was noted to them that they were damaging his chances to become President, at which point they all clammed up tightly.

Seriously, who is heavily invested in that haggard, lying, sickly Scrunt becoming president? Federal employees, uni-party loyalists, and Hollywood/ tech CEO swells comprise a relatively small percentage of the voting public, no?
But I'll settle for Trump all day and every day. Maybe we got lucky- especially with the MSM push their last credibility chip across the table.

It's been high on my bucket list this whole election year, with this as the top of my list
1. Hillary loses her final run for POTUS to another guy from out of no where, who burns through her carefully laid schemes. First she loses to the Magic Teflon Negro with a vaporware resume and the ability to Talk White While Being Barely Black. Then she loses to a flamboyant wheeler dealer who has NEVER held any public office.
2. During her concession speech to The Donald, she just can't hold the bile in any longer and she starts screaming and ranting and raving about everyone from Bill on down the line. During her rant, she names names, dates, places, crimes, since she didn't win, she's going to burn it all to the ground.

I don't know if it is legal, but it has its roots in English common law, and was common custom on the Scottish Marches, where a legally empowered individual - a sheriff or marshal - could claim "hot trod" and impress all available men to pursue a raiding band.

One more reason to drive a stick.
I love, love, *love* those carjacking stories where the owner is forced out and away at gunpoint, and flees into the distance, and then the would-be 'jackers have a sudden epiphany. Wait, what's this shit with THREE pedals?

Meh. The UN took sides in a civil war, against their mandate, and engaged in offensive operations against the breakaway province of Katanga to force them to return to Congo.
Trailer looks good, but the reality is that the UN and the Irish weren't the good guys. Not by a long shot.

Posse comitatus is the common-law or statute law authority of a county sheriff, or other law officer, to conscript any able-bodied man to assist him in keeping the peace or to pursue and arrest a felon, similar to the concept of the "hue and cry." Originally found in English common law, it is generally obsolete; however, it survives in the United States, where it is the law enforcement equivalent of summoning the militia for military purposes.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posse_comitatus
It stands to reason that if the cops can commandeer you, they can commandeer your car if that's what circumstances require.

The Grifone Sangiovese is a good value.

Trump then barred reporters from joining a tour of his new hotel, which prompted the pooled television reporters to erase their video from the tour, according to multiple reporters.
This highlights not only the bias of the press, but also their childish stupidity. They deleted their copy of a tape, but the footage had already gone out. So, what does deleting it accomplish? Their version of stomping their feet, I guess. The whole 30+ minutes is on youtube.

Horner's score for Aliens MAKES the film.
I have an affinity for John Barry's film scores, especially his last score for Enigma. It perfectly captures the British sense of sadness and desperation during WWII.

Amazon can be pretty handy. You refuse to shop/purchase online?
Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 12:33 AM (R+30W)
Amazon was a major component in my security breach. If you know the (1) name, (2) house address, and (3) email address an Amazon customer uses with Amazon (and, BTW, #1 and #2 are printed on their address labels -- for all I know, #3 may be, as well).....then you can call up their customer service line and (after an hour wait) get ALL of the other information they have about you -- your recent purchases; your recent wish-list items; the type, last four digits, and expiration date of every credit-card you've ever used there....they'll even let you reset the password on the account.
Worse yet, this same information is commonly found on resumes (you don't use your business email and address on your resume, right?).
The way Amazon handles your account data is worse than worthless -- it can enable further security assaults. For example, let's say your prior orders includes an HP printer -- what could be easier than to create a spoof email supposedly from HP that purports to sell you toner cartridges but actually dumps malware into your system?
At a minimum, I would advise using a separate-from-anything-else email address for Amazon -- as well as a separate-from-anything-else credit card.

I wonder if there will be a lot of little girls dressing up as "Ghostbusters" this year. That's one of the things they have tried to push as a positive from that shitty movie. And while there might be some I doubt its any significant number.

I think most "mainstream" MCU movies have a score
that's "orchestrally complex," which means that while you recognize the
theme it's not hummable so you can't recall it easily. Also, Iron Man
and GOTG depended on songs a lot, more than usual.
I just listened to a few and the distinctive scores are there, it's just kind of like a speech instead of a soundbite.
Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at September 17, 2016 01:01 AM (wB8Tg)
Well, most of the MCU scores riff off of the same themes and melodies. Basically, the Avengers score, where the themes are pushed the most. They may not be 'memorable', but they're consistent across multiple movies.

It has to be *specific*, just like people (except rabid fans on both sides) tunes out vague generalities, which is a huge weakness of politics in general, they will tune this out if specifics aren't delivered.
Soundbites deliver *a* poll, hard detailed work changes people's understanding of history.

Which brings me back to the last comment I read as I was scrolling up (yes, when I get here late, I read the comments bottom to top).
Someone mentioned Miss Peaches.
She has always been my favorite ette. When I first came back here after a couple year hiatus, she was the first person to say hi & welcome me aboard. Nobody knew me from a can of paint.
I can't remember the date exactly, but I distinctly remember the conversation, and the day.
I was taking the ex & kids to the lighthouse at Fort Story. A few days prior, I had just made up a name on the fly - with the 5 yr-old's help.

Peaches is the shit, and I miss her.

I use a separate email for online retail stuff. But, I don't have a separate one for each and every retailer.
So
are you just avoiding amazon, or are you not doing any kind of online
retail? It seems like a huge pain to limit yourself to buying everything
in person.
Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at September 17, 2016 12:58 AM (R+30W)
Each retailer is evaluated according to its potential threat. That Amazon's security is absolute crap, and that I've been burned by it before, warrants special care.....then, again, they've got the stuff, so they sometimes warrant special effort. Fundamentally, though.....I really don't buy that much stuff. I'm still driving a 1994 car and using a Kenmore washing machine manufactured in the 80's.

The original Joe Don Baker movie was a *terrible* "hard-living detective" movie from the 70s (I think), probably more famous as the last "Joel Hodges" episode of MST3K.

The BMJ just published a study showing their no link, repeat no link, between saturated fat and cardiovascular disease, stroke risk disease(clogged arteries here, whatever they call it), and diabetes.
There is a link between transfats and cardiovascular disease. And I'll bet you, that link disappears with the naturally occuring type of transfat, which is in beef for instance. It's the "engineered" type of transfats that have never existed in the human diet before that are likely the problem.

OK, time for a "build a clock" discussion....
When I was a kid, I encountered a math problem that said: "There are 17 pairs of black socks in a sock drawer and 19 pairs of white socks. Unfortunately, cthulhu has to get ready for school before dawn and must draw socks randomly from the sock drawer to get ready. What is the minimum number of socks he must take from the drawer to ensure he has a matching pair to wear to school?"
The answer, of course, is three -- the first sock could be white or black; the second sock could be the other; but the third sock is bound to match one of the prior two.
Brilliant!!! I could standardize my socks and underwear and never have to worry about anything matching.....but what about dye lots over the years? How would I know that my black socks would always match my other black socks?
So, what I did was -- I bought a metric fuckton of identical black socks; identical khaki socks; and identical underwear.....a little over 30 years ago. Yes, I've got socks older than many of the commenters here. But no individual piece of clothing gets used all that much, so they mostly appear new. Every so often, some misadventure happens and I discard a few [my favorite were some black socks that fell behind the couch near an electric baseboard heater and were subject to selective chromatography...].
There may come a time when my undies are subjected to issues that cause them to be discarded more frequently than they have been over the last 30 years....but, until that time, I'm probably good for another couple of decades.

As far as socks, I find that if I pair them up and fold them out of the dryer, there is no need to develop mathematical formulas to determine how much time I will need to randomly draw the singles out of my drawer and still get out of the house on time.
Seriously, it never occurred to me to stock up on 30 years of undergarments all at the same time.

Part of my job at the radio station is scheduling the music for the day. I've been doing this for most of my time here, when the duties were taken away from our morning guy (and former program director) because the owner wanted to make a change.
Our schedule runs on a digital playback system. I give the other air talent some leeway in moving songs around, playing requests, etc.
The morning guy has taken upon himself to add songs that I don't have playing in any rotation and dropping songs that he simply doesn't like...not just on his show, but on mine, and everyone else's. I discovered he came in after hours tonight and "tweaked" the schedules to remove songs that he doesn't care for. This isn't his job, and it hasn't been for years now.
I'm sure he's thought I didn't notice, but I've had my suspicions, and I now have screenshots and other evidence that he's been screwing around. Monday, I'm taking my evidence to the owner. What he'll do after that, I don't know. What I do know is, that if our positions were reversed, he'd be calling me out...also, if he were trying to pull this at any other station, he'd be fired.
So yeah, I'm a little pissed.

If not working, shift to OMG loud Hawaiian shirt, Sebago boat shoes, and WTF are "socks"?
Winter time. Pretty much the same, but cargo pants, boxers, high-top socks and the Sketchers the day long.

I'd be willing to bet that he didn't consider that your job performance was going to be measured by his random fucking around, and if he weren't such a nancy-boy he could demand a slot and demonstrate he could run it better than you could and maybe expand his slot -- instead of just screwing yours.

There was a wonky sci-fi story where it was posited that many of the objects that surround us are actually co-adapted beings living out their own life cycles. So, when you found that you'd brought home a bunch of paperclips from the office but couldn't find any -- but found you had an excess of ballpoint pens -- it was because the paperclips had pupated into pens during the night. And everyone knows that you always end up with more hangers going back to the drycleaner than garments you had cleaned....because the pens would subsequently morph into hangers later.

I have had a prepaid cell phone for so long I don't even remember what it was like to have a contract cell phone.
but I am thinking about getting one now, but I will probably hold on to my phone longer than the contract period.
will the contract just be canceled? I don't know.

However, most providers have given up on old style cell phone contracts these days. Instead, you buy the phone for full cost spread out over two years, no cancelations fees, and if you cancel, then any remaining monthly payments on the phone are due in full.

Don't let it lapse, number 1.
If you need to keep the number, keep the contract until the new service confirms the new contract.

Just be sure you purchase an "unlocked" phone that can be transferred to
any carrier. Some phones are restricted to one or two carriers based on

Unlocked phones are generally advertised as unlocked....and kept apart from the phone companies' offerings.

Just be sure you purchase an "unlocked" phone that can be transferred to any carrier.
Yesterday, at Best Buy, I looked at unlocked phones and plans.
Buying an unlocked phone saves about $20 per month, possibly more. This pays for a $240 phone in 1 year.
The problem I saw was that, of the 15 or so models available, only 4 would work with Spring or Verizon, and at least 2 of them were $650+. The remainder worked with AT&T.
I'm not buying a phone for $650, when the same one will cost $250 or less in 2 years.
Point: Check all of the plans and phones at Fry's and Best Buy before changing plans.
Posted by: Arbalest the Deplorable at September 17, 2016 02:54 AM (FlRtG)
You mentioned Sprint. They're a CDMA provider along with Verizon. AT&T and T-Molbile are GSM providers.
Google around and there are plenty of articles explaining the difference better than I can here in fewer words. Just make sure you look for recent articles with up-to-date info.
Sprint sells some phones that will work on both CDMA and GSM networks. Some phones might be CDMA only. Ask the salesperson. Even college kids working in malls these days will know which is which.
Ideally, you'll want a universal phone, not only 'cause it gives you the freedom to switch, but they're marginally more valuable during resale.

Look for a used phone / repair shop nearby. Around here it's called CPR (cell phone repair).
Tell them "I need a T-Mobile compatible phone." You can get a fully refurbished phone for 1/2 Price or better.
Then take the phone to the store & let them sync your contact list & whatever else from your old phone to the new one. Just make sure you have your old phone/SIM card.
Then, hit amazon for replacement batteries. Anker has been great for me on my Note 4. Cheap, 2 batteries + a wall charger (no cord), and I have 3 batteries - never worry about charging.

Yes, but GSM uses different frequency bands in different countries, and not all GSM phones are compatible with all frequencies. Hell, AT&T and T-Mobile have differing bands that sometimes cause compatibility issues here in US. Again, it depends on the specific phone.

Catwrangler is a newish name to me, but I think probably a longtimer - thank you for picking up my slack lately.
Pookysgirl,
You're on a non-apple, right?
Simply touch & hold for a second on any word in any post. Do you see two blue "teardrops" that you can then drag around to make a "quote?"
If so, an option should pop up to cut, copy, etc.
Copy (it's now on your clipboard) then paste into you new post.
For a url, same thing. Touch the header, i highlights. Then touch/hold & you should get the option to copy, which you can then paste. For instance, if you wanted to link what I'd arguably the prettiest song in history, do this:

Not the best version of that song, I think. Still my all time favorite, I think.
The original, studio version from the Allman Bros might be a better primer.

What a beautiful song...

Now, touch & hold long enough for the option box to show. Hit paste.
I think k your problem is NOT tapping to get your keyboard on screen maybe?

Heh.
I actually saw that vid a few years back (I love it). Before I ever knew who McGinnis was.
Of course I have since seen him on Fox.
I don't like his hipster beard at all. And I say that as a dude that hasn't shaved in a year. Anyone here that saw me walking down the street would glance at me & think "hipster douchebag."
I think it's the whole moustache thing he's got going on, maybe?

Hey Hat? In case you drop by again, there is this philosopher, Lydia McGrew who has made a very similar point to yours noting the phenomenon of "choice devouring itself". You should enjoy this:

Well, not really enjoy, as who can enjoy the spectacle of our society going to sh*t, but she's a very clear, articulate thinker.

Prager's view is the Greatest Generation never taught the next what it means to sacrifice.
Posted by: Skip at September 17, 2016 05:53 AM (8lPj5)
Vic's view is that the MFM named them the "Greatest Generation" and I don't think they were any better than any other generation. Sure they fought WWII but the next one fought 10 years of Vietnam. Sure the elected FDR to 4 damn terms and he destroyed the country. No wonder the MFM thought they were great.

*sigh* I've been seeing all day blurbs that "arctic ice observed at all time next to lowest level". Yet the polar caps were supposed to be gone by now, and expansions in the ice caps kept getting explained away (the melting ice tumbled down, thus increasing the surface area of the caps! Yeah, that's the ticket!). And yet these expeditions keep getting stuck in the ice.

The "Alt right" consists of the klan, nazi's and assorted skinheads, white supremacists, yada, yada.
None of these have even the fainest whiff of being conservative. In fact they are practiced mainly by left wingers who want their progressivism to fit a narrow definition enforced by their goobermint.

They have no way to ingratiate themselves into my little Kingdom.
Those who would disparage Cruz's voting record are ignorant assholes. Period.
I'll vote for Trump, so I can come "clean".
Trump is not a Conservative, however.
The FAR-"Alt-Right" assholes won't even concede that Ted Cruz is a Conservative.
They will dredge bullshit, so as to make themselves feel better.
