This painting explains why farmers are often good judges of politicians. You spend day after day looking at horses asses, you learn to recognize them when you see them.

Ha, now I see why the left is all upset about Cernovich. He's had people going through old tweets and found some really idiotic statement by an MSNBC contributor about Roman Polanski. So MSNBC fired the guy (or whatever they do to cut themselves off from one of their hangars-on) and now all of his bodies are shrieking that MSNBC is just doing what Cernovich is telling them to do.
In the real world, all Cernovich is doing is being a good Alinsky disciple, and demanding that they play by their own rules. Not surprisingly, they don't like that, not one little bit.

How beautiful! As a general rule, I am not fond of quieter color palettes, but this has enough flashes of color to 'make it move'. Don't know why the man is plowing perpendicular to the triple tree avenues, but the contrast gives the work its distinction.

That's because the man is trying to decide if plowing through an orchard of shallow tree-roots will or will not cause him to finally pull out his old Army pistol and end a life of unending agricultural stupidity. Posted by: Zod at December 06, 2017 09:48 AM (Bdeb0) 36

Thanks for the link. What a focused blog. Dralle perfumery: Sometimes a lighthouse is just a lighthouse. Posted by: NaCly Dog at December 06, 2017 09:54 AM (hyuyC) It is interesting. They sell vintage perfume, too, and I had my eye on a bottle from 1910. But, since I don't have anyone to give it to, it's a little expensive just to have sitting on my desk for the occasional inspirational sniff as I write.

Some of you might know Toni from New Jersey. She is a faithful moron and her Romeo and possibly Rosie (cats) were part of the pet thread. Toni is now in hospice for her cancer and at home with her dear husband. I met Toni right here on Ace of Spades and we became dear friends, emailing and calling texting back and forth. Toni put up a gargantuan fight against the cancer. Now, she is passing, but still her body lingers. Please pray for Toni that she passes peacefully into Jesus' loving arms. She is a devoted Catholic. I don't know what else to do but write this. She loved all of you so much, and had such fun on these threads. Please pray and send her love.

My dad bought an apple orchard shortly after I was born. He then went back on active duty. 15 years later when he retired from the Army he moved back to the homestead and aimed to fulfill his dream of being an apple orchardist. My brothers and I served as cheap labor in the effort. After about the sixth year of operations Dad totalled up his expenses and income at the end of the year and had made a net profit of $9.32
The next year he tore out the apple trees and converted the acreage to alfalfa. Posted by: Muldoon at December 06, 2017 10:18 AM (wPiJc) Posted by: Alcoholic Asshole Shut In at December 06, 2017 10:18 AM (CPk08) 199

Dear Friends, Some of you might know Toni from New Jersey. She is a faithful moron and her Romeo and possibly Rosie (cats) were part of the pet thread. Toni is now in hospice for her cancer and at home with her dear husband. I met Toni right here on Ace of Spades and we became dear friends, emailing and calling texting back and forth. Toni put up a gargantuan fight against the cancer. Now, she is passing, but still her body lingers. Please pray for Toni that she passes peacefully into Jesus' loving arms. She is a devoted Catholic. I don't know what else to do but write this. She loved all of you so much, and had such fun on these threads. Please pray and send her love. Posted by: Anonymous-9 at December 06, 2017 10:09 AM (omz2g) Toni, may you go swiftly into the arms of our Savior. May he have mercy on you when he calls you home to your eternal rest.

It's to usher in the New while paying homage to the Past. There was a great picture in the local newspaper of the Park's docents lining the forward deck of the old ship, saluting the new one as it passes. The crew of the new ship raised colors and returned the salute. Very cool. The Park also includes the battleship USS The Sullivans and the submarine USS Croaker.

Never. Going. To. Happen. Why do I say that? If they had squat, it would have come out already. They wish they had squat. The whole charade is a PR stunt disguised as a fishing expedition. Why do I think there's nothing there? They had his campaign under surveillance with the FISA warrants. If they didn't find it with tapped phones during the campaign and a year's worth of investigating after the election, it doesn't exist.

On a completely different topic:
For any Colorado Morons interested in health care and who like digging around in stats, there is a very detailed report on financials of Colorado Hospitals, including some statewide summary info as well as hospital-by-hospital individual facility financials with breakdown of payer mix, total revenue vs. net revenue, profit margins, breakdown of expenditures (i.e. administrative costs and the like). I've been poking around the last few days. Finding some interesting tidbits. For example, statewide payer mix (as of 2015) is 61% Medicare/Medicaid and 39% other (private pay). Perhaps 10 years ago that ratio was reversed. https://cha.com Financial Health of Colorado Hospitals Report It's a pdf file, linked on the main CHA page if you scroll down.

I don't know if Trump is protected from up on High, if he's some genius strategerist, or what. I suspect, he has the most simple of defenses.

But they threw the kitchen sink at him. We don't even know how many people in his campaign were under surveillance. It was probably more than one or two. Then, just to make sure he was nailed. They fabricated stuff with Fusion. It's just not sticking. What's the best evidence of this? The dems aren't screeching about collusion anymore, they're shouting obstruction.

As far as I ever knew, "Palestinian" was a sort of polyglot, almost cosmopolitan designation for whoever the hell lived there at any given time. Mostly Christian historically, mostly Greek or Latin or English or Arabic speakers. Even under the Turks, it was mostly Christian Arabs. They didn't give a damn about the religious sites in the Levant.
Then some Egyptian dick in the early to mid 20th century flooded the zone with poor Arab refugees to help destabilize the British in transjordan. Those people took up the name "Palestinian" at the behest of the Nasser-tie forces. Basically an artificial insurrection. An exsurrection? That's my understanding, at any rate.

He's a deal maker. We've been trapped in the same Middle East peace plan based on the same assumptions for decades. It was never going to work. Trump took one of the negotiating pieces off the board and reset the terms of the deal. It's a pretty common negotiating tactic. I'm surprised people still don't understand who Trump is and what he is all about. Making deals.

One biggest fallacies out there is the concept of a MidEast peace process. No such thing exists. That's because negotiating implies each side give something up.

>>"CIA Director Pompeo: Trump's Tweeting Has Actually Helped Us"
I really think a lot of people have been missing the forest for the trees with Trump. They focus way too much on individual tweets or actions in a moment of time and don't look at the big picture. Trump is a disrupter. He ran on changing the dynamic not just tinkering around the edges. Take the State Dept. People are way too focused on the day to day rumors about Tillerson, will he stay or will he go, and not seeing that he has been ripping apart the status quo and forcing a lot of long time employees out while he changes the structure of how the place operates. He isn't doing this without a plan. And this is happening all over government. Look at what is happening at the CPFB. Not only has Trump taken it over, the dissidents have now taken to communicating in some dumb Harry Potter code. DC will never be the same after Trump and he is just getting started.

437. You running Reaver with an amplified wifi antenna? I've heard of fellows - handsome chaos, envied by men, desired by women - doing such things. Posted by: Your Decidedly Devious Uncle Palpatine, Booking Agent, Aero Pinochet at December 06, 2017 11:13 AM (EaNOT) That really only works on WPS implementations on older wifi routers. I used that setup for about a decade. Newer WPS implementations have "fixed" the flaw in WPS by forcing timeouts after successive failed attempts. The WPS flaw is one of my all-time favorite security-engineering screw-ups. For those that don't know, WPS is the "idiot-proof" way of connecting to a wifi access point by pressing a button on the router and then typing in an 8-digit code to connect. An 8-digit code seems pretty secure (100 million combinations), except in the way they implemented it. The last digit is a checksum of the first 7 so that reduces the combinations to 10 million right off the bat. Then the real screw-up: The router confirms that 7-digit code in two parts: the first part is 4-digits (10,000 combinations) and if it's correct then the second 3-digit (1000 combinations) part is confirmed. So now your 8-digit code only has 11,000 possible combinations, trivial to brute-force if the router gives you unlimited attempts - which they all used to do. The only limitation is the strength of the wifi signal as the WPS handshake was a bit sensitive to noise. Worst-case scenario for hacking a WPS router would take about 10 hours, most took about 2-3. To make it worse most routers back then wouldn't actually disable WPS when you turned it off it in it's interface. Oh, and I know nothing about this being desirable to women.
