But seriously, Wikipedia sez:
"The Biglin Brothers: John (died April 19, 1886[1]), James (1851 -- 1917[2]) and Bernard (Barney) (1840 -- 1924) were brothers from New York active in professional rowing during the decade following the American Civil War, when rowing was one of America's most popular spectator sports. John and Barney were the subject of a series of eleven paintings by Thomas Eakins. "

The United States cannot, & will not, become such a difficult place to deal with in terms of foreign countries buying our product, including for the always used National Security excuse, that our companies will be forced to leave in order to remain competitive. We want to sell...
....product and goods to China and other countries. That's what trade is all about. We don't want to make it impossible to do business with us. That will only mean that orders will go to someplace else. As an example, I want China to buy our jet engines, the best in the World....
....I have seen some of the regulations being circulated, including those being contemplated by Congress, and they are ridiculous. I want to make it EASY to do business with the United States, not difficult. Everyone in my Administration is being so instructed, with no excuses...

From CITYLAB:
"... In much of the Boston area, the EPA found that these were, in fact, the same system. Local sewage infrastructure had been built in the late 19th or early 20th centuries, long before the environmental movement began efforts to clean up public waterways. When water levels were low, all of the liquid in the system -- both sewage and rainwater -- flowed harmlessly to be cleaned at a treatment center on Deer Island in Boston Harbor. When a major rainstorm hit, however, these systems got backed up. Everything in the pipes, sewage and all, would flush directly into the Charles and its tributaries through older drainage pipes that now violate the federal Clean Water Act.
Early clean-up efforts began in the late 1980s following major litigation surrounding the environmental impact on Boston Harbor. In the years before these projects began, Walsh-Rogalski says there were 1.7 billion gallons of this sewage-rain mix dumping directly into the Charles. Over the last few decades, EPA-enforced renovations to municipal sewage systems have reduced that number 99.5 percent."

I think the problems go back to before the regulation was changed. The organization lacked accountability. However, I think as with the RCC some lawyers and people smell money and go after that since. as with the RCC if someone has died they're not there to defend themselves or have representation.

When I worked in Boston one of the building renovations our firm designed was featured on the cover of Modern Steel Construction magazine. It was a renovation of an old warehouse into very nice offices sitting right on the Fort Point Channel. A few years after the harbor cleanup started the whole building collapsed into the channel. Turns out the clean up allowed marine bores to move back in and they had started happily munching on the wooden pilings of the building. Law of unintended consequences. There were a lot of buildings on the waterfront that had to have their pilings wrapped once the water got cleaner.

Sculling is the use of oars to propel a boat by moving the oars through the water on both sides of the craft, or moving a single oar over the stern. By extension, the oars themselves are often referred to as sculls when used in this manner, and the boat itself may be referred to as a scull.

Karma was always about the next life. Japanese soldiers were so zealous in WWII because of the form of karmic belief prevalent at the time. They believed that following orders rigidly, killing a lot of enemies, and dying in battle were good karma for a soldier.
Fly a human-guided missile into a cruiser on a one way trip and defeat over a thousand sailors by yourself? You were pretty much guaranteed to come back as an Emperor, if you have to come back at all.

My favorite Stern / Spade story is him nailing the girl Stern got to be in Playboy and unfortunately getting her pregnant . Well maybe not my favorite but most interesting. His support money at least allowed her to leave the business and have his kid raised in the mid west. By all accounts he is a good father.

I was an altar boy for a time and there was this one priest who would always ask me if I ever considered the priesthood and I would always say no and then he would ask if I'd prayed about it; used to annoy the hell out of me. He was a tough dude, reminded me a lot of Father Carapi who was on EWTN back in the day. Before he became a priest he was a prosecutor.

just wanted to pop in and chat - first off I agree that the RCC should allow married priests.
growing up we had a family friend who was a "consort" of a local priest. she was pretty and as far as I know that relationship never ended. but why does it have to be like this? rumor is such a relationship is why our Pope (the real one) had to "step away."
I was thinking about the American Dirt (the novel about Mexican migrants that is getting attacked by the SJWs for appropriating)...
if a while lady cannot write a novel from the perspective of a Mexican lady in other respects similar to her, why do MY KIDS have to read nothing but non-western-white-guy crappo novels in school?!??! can we stop "appropriating" awful books like The Bean Trees now PLEASE!?!
let them read good books again! they've grown to hate reading bc they have to read awful books written by under talented yet diverse writers all the time
and it also makes them exposed to very adult themes way way too early (House on Mango Street?!?!)
plus boys should not always have to read books by women authors. that's GOT to also be appropriation!
otherwise males might want to write a book from the perspective of a female, which should not be allowed correct? to get them ready to write only from the appropriate, allowable perspective, they should be exposed only to white guys' writing
lol I'm joking but well it would be a nice change for them anyway!!

Exactly. What they want is the hand of God to descend from the clouds and flick their enemies over the horizon, then flip them the bird as they sail away.
Except they don't believe in God, any form of deity, nor any afterlife, so they have to try to imagine up an impersonal force of temporal justice to fill that yearning... then they wonder why the world always lets them down.
But the failure of the universe to provide justice on its own keeps them angry, and for their leaders, that's not a bug - it's a feature.

It's remarkable how modern the editing is in the original 1968 version. Quick cuts, one after the other, except for the actors' names (and even they are short), so that you're left with an *impression* of Hawaii, and all cut to the beat of that incredible theme. Very modern.

Sorry, BB. Lizzy (?) had a very good comment about this. I can't do it
justice but the basic idea was that these people made an idol of their
politics and so everybody else is a heretic who needs to be punished and
destroyed or receive "reeducation"
That's proof of a sort that mankind has a basic need to believe in something outside of himself regardless of what that belief is in. See The Flying Spaghetti Monster and his (its ?) collander-wearing believers as one example.
If we're hardwired to believe, it really should be a good belief. One that contains at least some positive aspects of human nature so we have something to look forward to whilst we examine those negative parts of our own psyches in order to become better people. Sadly, Twatter exposes us to others who apparently have little to no interest in becoming better and revel in rolling around in the effluence of their lesser selves.

This am on Sirius, David Webb had Doug Burns, former US Prosecutor on. Doug gave an excellent, concise explanation of how US Federal prosecutors do their job and included a description of their bias' . He also explained about the current laws regarding sentencing guidelines, dates of when those laws were enacted and reworked, and what he knows as to exactly why and the timeline of the sentencing proposals for Roger Stone.
Unfortunately, Webb doesn't have podcasts available of his current show. I can't find a transcript or even a place to listen to a recording of it.
Burn's said that the way the sentencing guidelines are currently constructed, their emphasis is on punishing people who dared to not plead guilty, but instead, demand a trial and evidence. Should they be found guilty, then the sentencing guidelines actually encourage prosecutors to go after steeper sentences, even though this is unconstitutional. And prosecutors love to show their muscle in showing the defendant they shouldn't have messed with them by pleading not guilty. It's still entirely up to the judge to determine a sentence. There was a lot of detail in what he was saying( he thinks the prosecutors were political hacks in this case, and demonstrated why politics in the DOJ is such a huge problem, one Barr is trying to resolve) as to how reviews of sentencing recommendations from the DOJ are conducted , etc.
Well worth listening to if someone can find a recording of his appearance.

secretly met with Iran a few weeks ago, apparently to try and somehow
reinstate the Obama pallets-of-cash deal without PDT's knowledge.

How they planned to reinstate the Obama deal without the support of the White House is...well, it doesn't make any sense at all. Not with Trump in office, at least.

You don't need to be a geek. And Mint includes a whole suite of programs just like Windows does. You get Libre Office, which basically duplicates the MS Office suite, and you can open, modify, or create documents, spreadsheets, and slide shows that are Windows compatible.
It's pretty much like moving from a Ford to Chevy. The knobs and switches may be in different places, but it all works the same, until you get under the hood.

I think that top Democrats, through their agent John Kerry, have been coordinating with Iran even since Trump took office. I think they encouraged Iran to make several minor provocations - shooting down the drone, mining tankers, attacking a refinery - in the belief that Trump would massively overreact and that could be used against him here at home. Wasn't it curious how all of those attacks were designed to be provocative, and yet shed no blood? But they didn't work, Trump didn't take the bait.
And THEN Suleimani decided he could do whatever he damn sure felt like doing, so he orchestrated the attack on the Embassy in Iraq, and then he got Blowed Up. BAM!!! How that must have pissed off Kerry to see his Good Friend and Negotiating Partner splattered that way!
and NOW dems don't know what to do, and neither do the Iranians. And Trump is laughing at them.

Of course not. You have to look at the totality of what is happening and make your own conclusion. But you can make a strong inference based on what your enemy is doing and what they have been doing since Day 1 is attacking and trying to remove anyone who has threatened their agenda.
Anyone who thinks Barr is a deep state plant is the one being swayed by the media.
