I read that the Florence was coming for us because Trump didn't know enough about climate change.
My theory is that he has read two papers on climate change, knocking it down two categories, and he's working his way through a third.

The artist has a definite affinity for the male form. Those are well rendered bodies.
I absolutely don't get it. Why would Dante and Virgil want to bite each other in the neck? Who's the guy on the ground who's out of the fight?
What are the Cardinal and the Toga Party guy looking at? Did they bet this fight? Why is the demon laughing, did he rig this bet?
So many, many questions, mostly consisting of "why?".

I quote: It is the story of a young woman, Anne, who met an unexpected death, faced God at her private judgment, and was condemned to that terrible forever of suffering in Hell. Anne relates her fate in a letter, which she delivers to a friend, Claire, in a dream.
You can imagine Claire's shock. She had heard the news about her friend's car accident and sudden death only that morning. It upset her since she realized Anne was not a good Catholic, and she said some prayers for Anne's soul. Then, that night, she had a dream, so vivid it seemed real. In it, Anne delivered a letter addressed to her. Do not pray for me, the letter read, for I am condemned. I didn't take God seriously. I didn't take advantage of the many graces He gave me in this life. I made a god of pleasure, of my own self-satisfaction and whims, of the good things of this life. And now I am suffering an afterlife of eternal torment.

Nobody noticed that Trump had Iceland moved down to 50 miles off the coast of North Carolina to cool the waters and decrease the energy transferred to Flo. He'll have it hauled back as soon as its usefulness is finished. Unless, of course, the Icelandic people prefer to stay in a place where the temperatures don't get down to Lunar levels.

JoeF mentioned it at the end of last thread. Although re-reading it Speilburg might've believed Republicans in general (including Lincoln, I guess) were pro-slavery.
I wonder if that interview is online somewhere to see what he said? I wouldn't be at all surprised if he thought Lincoln was a (D).

You've started too late. When his daughter was born, my brother said he was already looking at boys with more suspicion.
What you should have done was 5 years ago, to get a Rottweiler, and have him trained to be (a) absolutely devoted to your daughter, and (b) to attack teenaged boys at sight. No boy, no problem, to paraphrase Stalin.

I think Katrina was Cat5 at one point in the Atlantic. It came in to Louisiana as a Cat 3. New Orleans is actually inland quite a ways, so Katrina was Cat1 or 2 when it reached the city, but a lot of water had already been pushed into the lakes (Pontachartrain and Borgne), and across the marshes to the south.

I don't know whether or not Spielberg knew Lincoln was a Republican or not--I'm sure he did--but the comment I heard ( in publicity interview for the release of Lincoln) was more about the Republicans as a party. He was surprised to learn that they were the opposite of what they are today. Or something like that.
Hollywood gets a lot wrong. In Scorcese's Gangs of New York, the villain Bill the Buthcher who was anti-immigrant was painted as also being racist and pro-slavery. Total bullshit. The Nativists like Bill were anti-immigrant (and anti-Catholic) but they were abolitionists interested in the welfare of blacks-who after all were native born and Protestant.

Remember Ain't It Cool News?
Harry Knowles, the founder, was apparently (and unsurprisngly) a bit of a creep. He was a disabled fat guy who found some level of fame from the internet and couldn't quite behave himself with female fans (no rape, just lots of inappropriate touching).
Anyway, when that came out, I had largely stopped paying attention to the site because it had become boring, but I couldn't help but troll the site with comments defending Knowles.
"He voted Democrat, so he obviously did nothing wrong," sort of stuff. It took a surprisingly long time (about 2 days) for the moderators (who was probably Knowles himself) from blocking me.
It was amusing.

In case you didn't hear, Trump apparently managed to alpha male the
hurricane to the point where the forecasters are saying it might be
downgraded to a category 2 or 1."
As an aside, typically, when a storm embiggens, it loses intensity - but covers more area with rain.
Posted by: Anon a mouse at September 13, 2018 09:56 AM (6qErC)
Nobody noticed that Trump had Iceland moved down to 50 miles off the
coast of North Carolina to cool the waters and decrease the energy
transferred to Flo. He'll have it hauled back as soon as its usefulness
is finished. Unless, of course, the Icelandic people prefer to stay in a
place where the temperatures don't get down to Lunar levels.

I can't find it right now but there are vids of parishioners shouting out during Mass at Cardinal Weurl. We have been pushed that far. Perverts.

I think the 'official' number that Trump was given by the Gov of PR when he visited was 64 dead. In comparison HC Andrew was also a Cat 5 and 65 died.
No one included, in the six months after HC Andrew the roofers that fell off roofs and died, the electricians that got electrocuted and died, the tree trimmers who died, and on and on and on.
Only the slackers in PR could come up with such bullshit. That's why they're so pissed off. Trump is calling them out on the lie.

One of the most popular music hall performers of the late Victorian and Edwardian era was Marie Lloyd.
https://tinyurl.com/y88vjupz
Known as "Queen of the Music Hall," she began performing as a child, making a professional debut in 1885 at the age of 15. Her performances were lively, with a good deal of back-and-forth with the audience, but they were criticized as risqué, and she spent her career in conflict with theatrical censors.
She suffered through abusive marriages, financial reverses and changes in taste, so that by 1919, her star was on the wane. Luckily for her, that year she was given her most famous song, "My Old Man (Said Follow the Van)," which remained a staple in her act until her death in 1922.
In 2006, the BBC featured actress Jessie Wallace in a documentary of her life, Miss Marie Lloyd, Queen of the Music Hall, with recreations of her act.
Here's Wallace in "My Old Man." Every time I watch this, I weep, whether it's from misguided nostalgia, anger / depression or because I'm just psychologically fucked up, I don't know. But for you, it's two minutes of sheer joy:

Brutus was close enough to Caesar to be a son (some rumors said he WAS), and Cassius, despite being an early opponent, was appointed to various offices by Caesar after his defeat. It was a thing with Caesar to put defeated enemies in places that looked like he'd forgiven them; he likely intended to do that with his former son-in-law Pompey except the little Pythagoran prick had killed him.
I guess Dante thought Cassius should have been loyal after being appointed to an office?

Even the Government of PR admits this is a 6 month total. If someone was speeding and died in a car wreck 5 1/2 months after the hurricane, the study says well he must have been speeding because the hurricane gave him PTSD, so he's a casualty of the hurricane and is included in the total.

Not exactly. There is no attempt to attribute cause. It is a straight numbers game. Here is what the study says about its methodology:
For observed mortality, we used records for all deaths occurring from September 2017-February 2018, provided by the Puerto Rico Vital Statistics Records (PRVSR) division of the Puerto Rico Department of Health (DoH). The estimates of excess all-cause mortality attributable to the hurricane are the result of comparing the projections for the census and displacement scenarios to observed mortality in the vital registration data.
So, yes, all deaths in the 6 months after the hurricane, if they are more than a calculated average adjusted by other factors, are "excess."
This has never been done for calculating deaths in any other event. Ever.

Fen doesn't know 'Bohemian Rhapsody'?
Geez. That has to be on the most-played of all-time list.
Disappointing song however. No Bohemians.

Once again - I think there is going to be a lot of surprised regular CNN watching airport travelers, the morning after this election day, when the Dems don't 'sweep into power' on the crest of a 'blue wave'"
This will be particularly true of Beta-Male O'Rourke supporters in CA and NY ( where most of his supporters live).
That being said - everyone, in every state (particularly those folks outside of NY, LA, Chicago Boston etc). Need to come out IN FORCE. Even if you are in the bluest of blue states/cities - come out and drag your Trump supporting friends relatives etc. with you. If we all show up - they cannot beat us. We can stop all this Anti American, lefty coastal elite swamp nonsense and stand up for all of America NOW. Teh Republic can and WILL be saved.MAGA!

A liquor watering hole in DC just down the street from Congress? I don't think so, LOL!
I had friends visit DC this summer and they stopped into the Trump Hotel DC, which is owned by the government, is leased to Trump and is on the National Historic Register after the completely restored the empty building and turned it into four or five star hotel.
Also, bear in mind that Trump divested his company to Eric and Don Jr. and everything is in a blind trust. There is zero chance the liquor board or whoever in DC is going to deny a multi million dollar hotel in the heart of DC a liquor license because one of it's shareholders makes liberals upset.

Why doesn't the MSM start tabulating deaths from Flo already? I'm sure some people vacating the area have been involved in auto accidents. A few heart attacks throwing heavy luggage into automobiles.

Doubt it. Kavanaugh does not seem the type."
I tracked down the story, looked at what they claim. Turns out that the strongest rumor is that it's some girl who claims Kavanaugh said something inappropriate to her when they were in high school, 40 years ago. Then she forgot all about it and never said anything to anyone at all about it for 40 years.
Next up, they're going to produce someone who swears that Kavanaugh cut into the line for drinks at the water cooler when he was in 5th grade.

We estimate that in mid-September 2017 there were 3,327,917 inhabitants and in mid-February 2018 there were 3,048,173 inhabitants of Puerto Rico, representing a population reduction by approximately 8%. We factored this into the migration "displacement scenario" and compared it with a "census scenario," which assumed no displacement from migration in the hurricane's aftermath. We found that, historically, mortality slowly decreased until August 2017, and that rates increased for the period of September 2017 through February 2018, with the most dramatic increase shown in the displacement scenario accounting for post-hurricane migration.

I remember another interview years back where one of the band members said they were in the studio working on it, and they just started throwing Italian words into it because it was operatic and a lot of fun, and it was mostly just a big fun day of goofing around for their own entertainment. And that none of them ever thought it would turn out to be so popular.
There's a lot of neat little classical structuures they throw into that song that you don't really notice - first of all, the mood and tempo changes at various points give it an epic storytelling vibe, with an opening, then dramatic action, finally a denouement, and the "poor boy" sets up a statement/counterstatement Greek Chorus effect with "will you let me go?" "BISMILLAH, NO! WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO!!!"
And of course, if you're going to go all the way over the top, the final ending just HAS to be a giant GONGNGNGNG..

Bougueareau's technical excellence is just jaw-dropping. The head of the dark haired man, the bitee - is just perfect. And it's hard to get the proportions right when a head is tilted at that angle, there's reverse foreshortening going on.
The ginger devil's body is all out of whack and misshapen - look at his ribcage. The profile on Dante - classical Roman. This is just a great work, one by Bougueaureau I hadn't expected.
Added benefit: the devil's victim is a ringer for my Sicilian boyfriend of years past. Glad to see he's getting his just desserts.
