Peter Drucker Quote III Yield to temptation. It may not pass your way again. Robert A. Heinlein The score card DJT is facing at the moment: North Korea, Russia, Syria, Iran and ....? The increasingly dystopian, socialist-led nation of Venezuela is again on fire. Rocked by social unrest that is being met with a violent response from police and pro-government forces, the regime of Nicholas Maduro is teetering. In tragedy, there is opportunity. President Donald Trump has been handed a chance to right one of the greatest injustices of Barack Obama’s presidency. By so far failing to speak out against Maduro’s brutal regime, however, Trump is repeating the mistakes of the past. In the last week, five Venezuelans—including a 13-year-old child—have been killed either by police or by the few “protesters” demonstrating violently in support of the government. The turmoil has been ongoing for the last two weeks and follows the failure of a virtual coup by a government desperately clinging to power.In an Maybe the Pope should speak up. Traditional men's jobs are fading away. Yet women's traditional jobs are increasing. Why more men will soon find themselves doing women's work. Many fields that are traditionally dominated by women are set to expand in coming decades, while many jobs currently dominated by men are not. That's the result of new research published Wednesday by Jed Kolko, an economist at job search site Indeed, which shows that less-educated men may especially face challenges in the job market of the future. Jobs in the United States are still strongly divided by gender. A little more than one-third of men and a little less than one-third of women work in fields that are at least 80 percent staffed by their gender, according to census data analyzed by Kolko. Going to the grocery store there are a couple of rows of snacks. We take the potato chip forgranted. Japan has a shortage of potato chips. Thanks to a series of typhoons that hit northern Japan last year, the potato crop was poor, which has led to a very big problem this year: potato chip scarcity. Projects. Sometimes they go right. Sometimes they don't. Even grade school students get miffed when something doesn't go right. So I’m watching this Rube Goldberg contraption. It’s the shizzle. It rifles through Newton’s wastebasket, looking for new Laws of Motion after the first three aren’t enough to get the job done. It uses hydraulics, and electromotive force, and combustion, and every darn thing they can lay their hands on in the modern snouthouse. If it’s available at the mall, it’s integrated into the action. The hammer blow to turn on the power strip and start the fan is inspired. Then, after 6 full minutes of glorious time wasting, you introduce some sort of porcine progeny, a water balloon, and what sounds to my ear like an off-camera F-bomb, followed by a mumbled punchline that spoils the joke.Do you have a break room where you work? Do you have a kitchen where you work? Do you have thieves? Who stole all the forks? It happened again recently. I made my way to the kitchen, opened the cutlery drawer, and ... nothing. No forks, no spoons, no teaspoons. Once again, I ate my salad with a soup spoon - which was retrieved dirty from the dishwasher. (Yes, I washed it.)Over protective parenting.

As a Catholic, I'd rather this Pope did not speak up, since I'm probably not going to agree with him. Sure, Pope Benedict looked rather like a tall angry elf, but at least he could pass as Catholic. Francis is a Marxist social justice warrior. Not sure about the Catholic part.

I'm sure Trump will speak up against Venezuela when the time is right. His team is certainly developing appropriate policies to deal with them now.

Fine content, just not sure I like the direction the white privilege one took. "Don't let anyone else make you ashamed of who you are" is fine, but making it about race and not civilization crosses a line for me.

What do the Neo-cons warmongers want, a red line in the sand?
*** My memory is that Bush 43 had a chance to end the communist regime in Venezuela when they had their coup. But when he said no, everyone else said no as well, and they let Chavez back into power. I was pretty sure it was a mistake at the time, and it clearly was one now. When you have the chance to eliminate an enemy at no cost you should take it (cue Clinton letting Osama bin Laden go) but frankly America has been terrible at geopolitics since the 80s. As for now, what should we do? Take videos of Venezuela and show them to school kids and tell them "This is your country on socialism. Any questions?"

A word of advice to those of the horde that do this sort of thing:
If you write press releases for your company, do not lie. If you use 100 of something, don't say "over 100." Say 100. You will be caught; your "executives" will do "interviews" and give out things like "equipment lists" that prove your statements to be a lie. Posted by: shibumi at April 17, 2017 10:58 PM (FkAXz) 205

The article concerning whether it is more dangerous to be a kid nowadays --- They talk about the crime rates going down since the 1990s but yet people feel they are up. Speaking as an NYC resident, it does feel like crime has gone up and that is because many quality of life crimes have been decriminalized by the Deblasio administration.

TheHill.com via Breitbart : Jeff Sessions bringin' da law and order to the DOJ.
Inimai Chettiar (offers an contrasting point of view) director of the Justice Program at the Brennan Center for Justice, argued that arresting and incarcerating people is not the solution. --- Which is kind of odd since California enacted the 'three strikes and you're out' law and crime went down. Then under Obama who released several hundred 'non-violent' convicted felons and murders went up. Something of a mystery that people who don't obey the law commit more crimes. Of course, it isn't their fault as they are being oppressed by the white patriarchy who use the law to keep poor people poor. Which is understandable since we see how the progressives use the law and the courts to crush their political opponents. I guess it becomes a matter of which gang you join.

Hey everybody.
Just got back from a vacation in Laughlin. It wasn't long enough IMHO-- drove there Friday, stayed Saturday, drove back yesterday-- but at least this time I had a reliable way home (via my family). And my luck was horrible. Just a ton of bad cards at blackjack, idiot tourists in the Harrahs poker tournament, and I didn't go for any of the oddball table games. Was still nice to get away though. I actually kind of like Bullhead City, I just wish they had an industry there besides the casinos in Laughlin, that aren't doing that great anymore.

I don't know if the Facebook obsessed are smart enough to be worrying about their kid in jail, their insurance or anything else real. I suspect many are totally superficial and are more worried that they don't have the same things that everyone else has, so they need new car/ clothes/ job/ whatever, and need to do things that cost a lot of money to impress everyone on Facebook.

My big excitement for today: I "fixed" the driver board for a cheap Chinese-made LED fluorescent tube replacement. The owner of the hotel in town handed it to me and asked if I could do anything with it. Lamp is rated at 18 watts.
So I took the LED strip, minus the driver board, and hooked it up to my variable DC power supply. At about 60 volts, the LEDs kicked in, dimly, and at about 75 volts, they were drawing their rated 18 watts of power, and were brilliantly lit. So I deduced the driver needed to output 75 volts. The driver is pretty simple; just a full-wave bridge rectifier with a capacitor to filter the resulting DC. Positive rail goes right to the lamp strip, negative rail is mediated by a tiny 8-pin surface-mount IC. That IC gets a read on output voltage via a voltage divider, and has a capacitor across one pair of terminals, and a resistor across another pair. Seems to be a PWM circuit of some kind. As found, it was putting out 33 volts, not enough to light the LED strip. Tried replacing a small capacitor across the lamp terminals, thinking it might be shorted. No result. The capacitor directly connected to the IC was 2.2 uF rated at 50 volts. I bridged another similar cap across that one while the circuit was powered up, and bingo!, the lamp came on full brightness. So I replaced the 2.2 cap with another of equal value, and the driver works like new. I guess the old cap had gone open, or lost most of its value. Took the lamp back to Yung, and he was pretty amazed when I plugged it in and it lit up. Turns out he worked for LG electronics in Korea for 15 years and knows his shit. Well, I got lucky there. The one part on that little board I couldn't test was the IC chip, because it's essentially a black box to me, and tiny, to boot. But a bad cap, I could find, and fix. I puzzled out the circuit diagram, and it bears a strong resemblance to this one that I found on line, not exactly the same, but pretty clearly using the same principal of operation. I expect the exact circuit of the Chinese driver is proprietary, and uses a custom IC: http://dev.emcelettronica.com/cheap-high-current-led-driver I was thinking of lighting my shop building with a slew of these LED tubes made to replace T8 fluorescent lamps. Having some second thoughts. The little driver boards seem to be really cheaply made, and clearly subject to failure. I might be better off just mounting the LED strips, without drivers, and then just powering the whole lot from a purpose-built 75 volt DC supply. I could put a one-amp fuse on every LED strip to protect the power supply from a shorted "lamp". Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 18, 2017 12:12 AM (0deF2) 341

Nice work. I replaced the laundry room fluorescents with Feit brand LEDs and they worked great; instant full brightness, no flicker, etc. I got another set for the basement pantry/dry stores room, and one wouldn't come on at all, the other was like a fluorescent with a bad ballast. Swapping them in/out with the known-good fixture and tubes indicated that they were both bad, and after an exchange, their replacements work just fine. Nice harsh white, like I like in work/storage areas. I can't speak to how they work outside, but if you get a decent set, they should do better than fluorescents in cold weather, yeah?

So, no. Definitely would not hire. ---- They do the special effects (fireworks, flames, lasers, etc) for quite a few high budget concert tours. Dangerous stuff. I saw this and was absolutely horrified. It's just one notch below the Burger King guy, and is just about as disturbing as the Facebook picture of their CEO and the crew at dinner with a mountain of empty beer bottles in front of them .

I understand Trump not saying much about Venezuela. First, talk without action - what good is that? That's what Obama specialized in. And talk will create some kind of expectation that we can do something, when it's already too late. There's nothing we can do, Venezuela is going to burn, and many, many people will die, and it will be decades before they even get any semblance of a civil society back there after this goes down.
There's no upside, there's only downside. This is what happens when the left takes over. The purpose of some lives, and some nations, is simply to serve as an example to others. When that happens, all you can do is stand back and watch it burn. Posted by: Tom Servo at April 18, 2017 12:29 AM (V2Yro) 367

In my reading this evening, I learned there are now a number of "plug and play" LED replacements for T8 fluorescent lamps, and a big market for them is to replace fluorescents in grocery store coolers and freezers. My shop is currently "lit" by four eight-foot high-output fluorescents that will start at -30C. Such lamps are commonly used in signs, and for outdoor lighting here in Canada. But less efficient than your normal F40CW. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 18, 2017 12:31 AM (0deF2) 372

Time is the scarcest resource and unless it is managed nothing else can be managed. Peter Drucker
Drucker was a management consultant for GM decades ago, and he brought them back from the grave. Perhaps his most influential protegé is Rick Warren, author of Purpose Driven Life and founder and head pastor of Saddleback Church, one of the first megachurches and one of the most influential. But there lies the problem: many of accused Warren of valuing church growth at the expense of theology. It's more a church of Drucker than a church of the bible. But Warren's the guy all the ambitious, aspiring megachurch pastors fantasize about being. Posted by: Steve and Cold Bear at April 18, 2017 01:07 AM (vRcUp) 404

Some towns fight the construction of bypass roads because they fear all the sweet, sweet tourist dollars will go away. Or should I say the Chamber of Commerce fights the bypass?

Posted by: lousagirl at April 18, 2017 02:01 AM (9plvG) Well, I understand that the traffic used to go across the dam itself. In fact, I think I did cross Hoover Dam in 1988 on a day trip while at an event in Las Vegas, and I think we drove through Boulder City to do it. Undoubtedly, Harry Reid bought up the land that would make the likely route for a highway route to bypass Boulder City, and simply sat on it, to let its value rise as the town became more and more tired of the traffic. So build Interstate 11 like I suggested above. Highway 93 will still carry the Phoenix-Vegas traffic load, but all traffic from points north will use I-11, and reduce the overall traffic load by a substantial amount.

A whole lot less traffic through Vegas and the Nevada portion of I-15, including the casino town of Mesquite, which is also a part of Clark County. Just this year, they instituted a 12.5% hotel room tax. Fuckers. No more staying in Mesquite for this cowboy. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 18, 2017 02:11 AM (0deF2) 467

Posted by: lousagirl at April 18, 2017 02:11 AM (9plvG) I don't know if traffic patterns changed, or what. I do remember that I wanted to tow a trailer to Glendale, AZ, in 2010, and was told that trucks and trailers were not allowed to cross the dam since 9/11, in fear that a truck bomb might be deployed on the dam, I guess. I expect the opening of the bridge allowed the return of heavy truck traffic, and yeah, there are a lot of them. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at April 18, 2017 02:15 AM (0deF2) 468
