Overnight Open Thread (17 Mar 2017)
Anarchist Road Fixers
Dang. I'm finding it hard to hate this anarchist group. Portland anarchist road care, skilled workers who voluntarily fix roads when local government won't. Protocol Reason #345,672 why MSM numbers continue to plummet. In a break from tradition, Trump calls out Obama by name in budget document. I seem to recall Bush being blamed for just about everything. He may not have been named-named in a budget document, but saying "over the past eight years" is essentially saying Bush and ignoring every Obama speech blaming Bush is just dumb. Cartman Remixmillions of people had not made a payment on $137 billion in federal student loans for at least nine months in 2016, a 14 percent increase in defaults from a year earlier. The consumer watchdog used the latest data from the Education Department, which manages $1.3 trillion in federal student debt owed by 42.4 million Americans.
Taxpayers on the hook for $1.3 trillion and rising. Budget Cuts Trump's drain-the-swamp budget puts GOP lawmakers to the test. They'll fail. The GOP has no spine and we're only taking about tiny cuts and already hearing how hard and difficult that'll be. Yo-Yo Performance to Freebird

This is one of the many data points that prove we are in a Revolution. When the political spectrum stops being a straight line and becomes a full circle with Left-Right alliances, then we are in a Revolution. Hence, Bernie and Trump.
Also see Tulsi Gabbard, Dennis Kusinich, and other lefties supporting Trump way more than the establishment center.
The dishonest unhinged Left are useful idiots for the global governance Marxists, which is what the center was revealed to be amd has been for a long time.

Dunno if his view was accurate for the Luftwaffe as a whole - seems the circle of elite and senior sorts he ran with did have a more "normal" professional and civilized approach to certain things.
Interesting, I do recall several cases of Luftwaffe officers intervening in a commendable fashion, including springing Allied airmen/pilot POWs from Dachau and similar situations to get them under Luftwaffe control/protection in Luftstalags, as was standard and proper.

Huskies are the best. Back when my oldest was irresponsible and stupid she brought home 2 of them. Of course I was in charge and had to take care of them. Most loveable things ever but tough. I had one out on a retractable leash one day and she ran into the ditch and got into a fight with a racoon. Took about 20 minutes but she was victorious. I held on the whole time worried but at the same time didn't have the strength to reel her in.

Which is to explain why I have been reading through a site I'd not heard of before today, and laughing. It's called turtleboysports.com, and it is, in between sports stories, (mostly) dedicated to ridiculing the lunacies of messed-up (mostly white) people in Massachusetts. A more serious take would be that the problems in (some) small American towns are worse than I thought.

Yeah. It isn't just content, mate. The whole "subsciption" thing doesn't sit right with me. I used to play old shooters and the servers etc were provided for nix. That was the reward and incentive for buying a top dollar game. Now, you gotta pay a motza for the game AND pay to play. I'm no game industry expert, but the older model seemed like it allowed games to live longer. Maybe that's the whole idea now? Also I want a single player that provides all the maps with bucket loads of bots run by decent AI, like multiplayer, but with bots. Not on the cards these days. I could let that go if the muliplayer was good to last for a few years and I didn't have to pay tolls all the time.

Stupid soccer mom comment of the week for me:
Opposing team was named "Lynx." Said so right on the front of their jerseys. Stupid soccer mom said: "Oh...like they are all individual links in a chain! Isn't it great that they focus on team play!"
I so wanted to *facepalm* right in front of her. But, fkn professionalism.

Mine never said anything, and either did the priest at my uncles parish.

I recall that a previous year it fell on a Friday, that its a matter left up to the individual Bishop of the Diocese. And what was done there it you were supposed to abstain on another day to make up for eating meat on St. Patty's Day.

Good stuff! Keep at it. The young guys around here have gone rapidly from noobs to 16 for 5 and every now and then, 20 for 0. I've never played online live with a console, and you can't learn shit from single player. Too scripted. I have major problems just co ordinating body movement and what on console, let alone bring the sights on target in under 10 seconds. There's no point me trying to learn from scratch in multiplayer. I'd spend the whole round respawning. With random play single player, I'd have a chance to learn.

BF42 was/is fucking awesome. I don't give a shit about how things look, I just want great gameplay and BF42 delivered. The single player was fantastic, you didn't really need multiplayer. The Forgotten Hope 1 mod was unbelievably good, with a ton of maps. It made weapon use and vehicles more realistic.

Single player modes are largely an afterthought these days. Last year's Doom was one of the few exceptions. The single player was freakin' awesome. As was TitanFall 2. Star Wars Battlefront was rightly excoriated for not having one. BF1's single play "stories" have been pretty cool.

was some interesting stuff in there re "ethics" and honor the author
(German pilot who spared the B-17) claimed were part of Luftwaffe credo,
and affected behavior.
Dunno if his view was accurate for the Luftwaffe as a whole - seems
the circle of elite and senior sorts he ran with did have a more
"normal" professional and civilized approach to certain things.
Posted by: rhomboid at March 17, 2017 10:13 PM
Hitler once asked Hermann Goering if his fighter pilots would shoot at Allied airmen in parachutes, implying that he thought they should. Goering asked that question of Adolf Galland, Luftwaffe ace and "Inspector of Day Fighters", and Galland replied, "Absolutely not!". Goering then said "Good, That's what I hoped you say."So yeah, it was part of their credo.

NewCastle in chili isn't like carrots in chili, but really I don't gaf
any ideas of proper chili. Really, I know it was, sort of, a joke but
bakers bake to recipes, cooks/near chefs just do what it is this time.
I think that's how we learn to cook, generally. Take it, Julia Childs...
I'm lazy to reference the particular item. Sorry.
Oh, salt on watermelon. Hmmm.
I lived in NewEngland as a kid. I'm thinking this is like how we used
to take a real plant of rhubarb off the stock and sugar.
Is that sort of what it is? Wow, so many memories, but I'd try salt
on watermelon. Why wouldn't one?

A very nice gringoized cultural appropriation recipe is to add chopped fresh mint (to a cantaloupe salad with lime juice and chile flakes). Again, fresh - best if you have your own mint to cut. Amazing combo of cool mint, hot chile, tart lime and sweet melon. If CBD is lurking, a summer food thread recipe idea.

Mid-90s two good friends (a couple) who'd quit their jobs in China and were spending a year on the road asked me to meet them somewhere in Africa. The finalists were Namibia, Zimbabwe, and Ethiopia.
Zimbabwe was already pretty much a charlie foxtrot, and next-door Mozambique not yet cleaned up enough for the kind of independent travel we prefer, so that was out. Namibia was too $$$$, and seemed to require a guide with vehicle to do almost anything (incl. getting to/exploring the Skeleton Coast).
Ethiopia beckoned (we all love the food, and there are "sights" - stone churches - and national parks/hiking). So we met there. Oops. September (orthodox holiday season) - all internal flights booked up, so couldn't get up to the parks and churches in the north. Tried taking a flight to Dire Dawa to then take the train to Harar (town of 99 mosques - but also silversmiths), and got some East German-trained travel official's run-around at the airport.
So we bailed and flew up to Eritrea, where we spent 10 fantastic days. Amazing place (and same food as we'd left, with the bonus of great Italian food, and espresso - and even cheaper, if that was possible).

though I think certain rifle calibers still have some air to come out of
the bubble (30-06, for example). Handgun calibers have settled
noticeably in the last few months.
I reload almost everything I shoot, but I check prices online now and then just to see.
Got a surplus/turn-in CZ-83 (.380) from AIM Surplus - very fun
little pistol. Great balance, pointability, feel, and being all-steel,
very comfortable on the recoil. Can't imagine I'll shoot 380 enough to
justify reloading it, so I'll be trying to stockpile before January. I
aspire never to have an "ammo ID" in CA.

As much as I enjoyed .380, after shooting my Kahr CW9, I cannot shoot it like I used to.
Before you declare me a .380 hater, be advised that my Russian Makarov saw 3K rounds before I moved to larger calibers.
Really, I wish all subcompact firearms shot as nicely as the Kahr or Makarov..
The Kel-Tec P11 and Taurus PT111 G2 I have are a bit of handful which surprised me.

The reason we found ourselves in Namibia was that our uncle was marrying an Angolan chick, and while I had enough British Airways miles to get us there, all reward seats to Luanda were booked, but not all seats to Windhoek. We bought tix on Air Namibia to get to Luanda.
Namibia was awesome. We rented a pickup (they call it a "buckey" there) and drove from Windhoek to Etosha to Swakopmund then back to Windhoek. A beatifyl, beautiful country.

Changing the Prop 13 limits on prop tax increases - that's one clean and clear red flare firing in the sky that would mean "bye bye" - but since I think it would wreak so much havoc with so many people, it actually might be un-doable for the Khmer Rouge who have taken over the state.
And it's not just the beauty. It's the outdoor activities. No ocean in Nevada. And the climate that permits outdoor life year-round (and it's just a day's drive to spectacular mountains and snow, which we did a week ago). Food and wine.
So we'll see. MAx is right that the next governor will be even worse - though, quibbling a bit, Brown has actually collapsed/worsened so much in recent years on things like firearms and budgets, that Newsome may *not* present much contrast.
I'm very guardedly optimistic that the courts (ha! "courts") will provide *some* small relief on gun stuff. But as to $$$$, state finances, taxes, no basis for hope (apart from everything hitting the wall, which simply will not be permitted, as the US stupidly abuses its world reserve currency status like an addict taking that *one* more hit).

All of the above? I haven't had a chance to do a side-by side yet. Some of it is just mistakes (adjuster didn't appear to account for labor costs for the fence, eg). It think most of it may be down to the boondock location. Here's the situation: ~20foot section of tree fell on top of the A-frame cabin. Top of the cabin is kindof a continuous "skylight" made of fiberglass sheet. Tree took out one section of the fiberglass along with the ridge board and other framing. Also damaged the comp shingles lower down. A couple of days of heavy rain saturated the upstairs floor (eng. hardwood) but surprisingly did little other damage (some damage to walls and floor in bathroom). Another tree (we think) took out about 24' of fence. The storm also damaged one face of our shed's roof (also an A-frame, redwood clapboard), as well as the ridge of our pump house roof (small). We also lost our foot bridge (20' x 4'), but that's not part of the claim because it was due to the creek flooding.
Anyway, if you're offering to advise, I'll fill in the details when I email you tomorrow. We just don't want to get screwed over. We're going to be down ~$10K for the bridge and we'd like to keep it at that if possible.

Why are you going to Luanda?" and then warned us that Angola was --his words-- "Africa at its rawest."

Got the CZ for kicks, nothing more. But doing research on 380, unsurprisingly modern ammo design has provided some 380 self-defense rounds that do very well in tests. Several current offerings meet the FBI penetration standards, while giving good expansion, according to the lab tests at Lucky Gunner.

ammo brand that is not good. My 38 spl brass is PMC - I established
most of my reloading brass stocks by buying cases of ammo and keeping
the brass. Makes for a nice uniformity in the brass (brass can vary
quite a bit between brands, meaningless to shooters but sometimes
relevant for reloaders).

A weird combination that was also pretty standard going to Azerbaijan. And, because oil, British Air and Lufthansa went to Baku.
Azerbaijan had one of the largest refugee (technically, "displaced persons" as they hadn't crossed an int'l. border) problems in the world in the 1990s - and maybe the least well known. Close to 900K at one point.
For those horrified, reasonably, by the prospect of Third (or Second) World air travel, note that many airlines from these countries "partner" with major European or other First World airlines, who provide training and personnel. At least when I did it, when you flew Vietnam Air, it was a brand-new Airbus, and the left seat up front was occupied by an Australian pilot. Ethiopia Air partnered with Lufthansa. And so forth.
Oh, and for the male travelers with an eye for natural art, you're simply not going to find "staff" on any US carrier that compares to Vietnam Air. Amazing.

I teach high school. I like my subject, I like my bosses, I like my students (mostly). On top of it, I am almost finished with a graduate program that will allow me to go into educational leadership. So it's weird that I now find myself scoffing at this entire field, and I'm not sure why.
All the time I hear it from those above me that this is the most important and noble work that there is. Seems narcissistic and simply wrong, and also unnecessary. While I think my background makes me well-suited for the logistics of school leadership, I always find myself hoping that I won't be required to pump up people's egos so they can successfully do their jobs.
I really wish I could better explain my point. I think I just want to do something else with my life. Go back to the military, sell real estate, go into law enforcement, private business, something.
It's not a money thing, either. I don't think teacher pay is s***, and admin pay certainly isn't.

Jim from Galveston noted that PMC is among the most desirable brass for reloaders - didn't know that, though fortunately I happened to "standardize" on PMC for 38 spl. He mentioned PMC in the same breath as Lapua, which is high praise.
Prvi Partizan out of Serbia has excellent ammo, and good brass, in my experience. If some of the cheaper sources get their 30-06 Garand ammo in before January, I'll get some (adding 500 cases to my stocks once it's all shot).
How about Igman (Bosnia)? redc or any other gun nuts here have anything to say about them?
And redc - do you ever drive down to LAX Ammo to buy in person? I'd think that knocking off the shipping, and buying something on sale, would yield some decent prices there for "locals".

I think one of the things women don't understand is that it is a "buyers" market for women.
You DO NOT have to settle for guys who cannot or will not hold a job. If they won't talk to you, move on. Round hole, square peg. I know multiple women who are shackled to men who use them. The "men" refuse to get a job and want the women to pay their bills while they sit at home playing video games and/or chasing other women.

Worst of Trump's Eevil Budget:
"The Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP) helps families afford heating and cooling costs. LIHEAP is an essential tool for preventing the occurrence of "heat or eat" situations where families must cut back on food to offset increased energy costs. In Boston, for example, researchers found a 30% increase in the number of underweight infants and toddlers in the winter months compared to the rest of the year."
So these people are cutting back food instead of electricity?

It's not easy for a guy either. Women generally want someone close to their age, and if you're in your mid thirties and want a family, time is running out.

C-135s are a parallel development to the 707 off of the same basic prototype. One is not derivative of the other. E-3s, E-8s, Mercury and the C-18 (platform for the last incarnation of the ARIA, now all converted to E-8s, I believe) were all 707 based. The Mercury aircraft are, IIRC, the last airframes off the 707 line. The C-18s were literally purchased from the airlines as they were being phased out. I saw one at Wright-Pat that still had the original AA paint on the inside of the cargo door.

Facing a bread shortage that is spawning massive lines and souring the national mood, the Venezuelan government is responding this week by detaining bakers and seizing establishments.
In a press release, the National Superintendent for the Defense of Socioeconomic Rights said it had charged four people and temporarily seized two bakeries as the socialist administration accused bakers of being part of a broad "economic war" aimed at destabilizing the country.
In a statement, the government said the bakers had been selling underweight bread and were using price-regulated flour to illegally make specialty items, like sweet rolls and croissants.
The government said bakeries are only allowed to produce French bread and white loaves, or pan canilla, with government-imported flour. However, in a tweet on Thursday, price control czar William Contreras said only 90 percent of baked goods had to be price-controlled products.
--All I have to say is that any country that has an office entitled National Superintendent for the Defense of Socioeconomic Rights is fucked.

i walked into the Risk Management office on the 6th floor of the Left LA hospital, and spoke fluent "healthcare" with the staff, who were stunned that a patient would come straight to them, let alone know what he was talking about.
i'm on my 2nd PCP, as the first pissed me off over several months.
this one's doing much better: he pissed me off in our very first visit.
i'm going to, verbally, in writing, rip off his head and shit down his neck, pointing out his various errors, stupidities, and the fact that he refuses to acknowledge various medical issues i have, or dismissing them as irrelevant, while fixating on my alcohol use.
granted, it's been off the charts for more than a few months, and both my AST labs and A1C are elevated (and then some) but nothing that reverting to normal behavior won't take care of in short order.
ignoring my numerous ortho injuries, OTOH, won't make them go away, or improve my quality of life.
