Just the skill to make those colors would be beyond me. How do I make a
tube of green paint into both "shiny green" and "dark, shadowed green",
as well as everything in between?
I'm also interested in HOW they made the paints. This green looks vivid enough that I suspect it was after the dawn of the age of chemically-derived paints. Prior to that, did they use ground up emerald or something?

This is about the time tubed paints were developed. I'm not sure of the exact date tho, but they were definitely around by the time of High Impressionism. The colors were pure and varied, and allowed the artists to go outside the studio to paint. The Impressionists went ga-ga over them.
Today's painting is not Impressionist tho. Too early, still another 7-8 years to go. Monet is still in his development phase.

Per the article I was reading, Paris Green is just a synonym for Emerald Green.

after the precious gemstone, which gets its distinctive colour from
trace amounts of chromium and vanadium. Also known as Schweinfurt Green,
Paris Green and Veronese Green"

Impressionism is about capturing the moment, the "impression" of something before the conditions change. With Monet's haystacks and splotches, it about textures, lighting, color and atmosphere. That's why they're so splotchy, because at any second, a cloud could cover the sun and completely change the look of the scene. He has to paint it as quickly as possible. His paintings of haystacks, for example, aren't really about haystacks.
I think the best example of what he's trying to accomplish is his Rouen Cathedral series.

splotches, it about textures, lighting, color and atmosphere. That's why
they're so splotchy, because at any second, a cloud could cover the sun
and completely change the look of the scene. He has to paint it as
quickly as possible. His paintings of haystacks, for example, aren't
really about haystacks.
That's the best explanation of Impressionism I've ever heard. Thanks.

Current polling:

Nope, that's it.
Republican incumbents
AZ +5 R
GA +5 R
IA +3 R
NC +3 R
CO -1 D
ME -3 D
Dem incumbents
NH even
MI +1 D
MN +1 D
VA +1 D
NM + 3 D
OR +5 D
Yep, even if they get CO, that's offset by AL--which other FOUR seats are they going to flip?
In states that Trump won?
And hold NH, MI, MN and VA?
One of those in a state Trump won and one in a state he will win?
ALL of which are closer for the R to flip than their shot at flipping ME.

I was kidding (that was my dislike of Monet raising its head). The best way to appreciate his series is to see it all at one time - like the haystacks or Rouen. Unfortunately not all museums have such collection. You see one or two. If you are lucky there is a traveling retrospective that may visit your town and a guidebook to walk you through it. I think I am not a huge fan of Impressionism overall. A big fan of post-Impressionism - Gauguin, van Gogh. Latter may not have evolved without the former, so I give it credit for that.

But we'e eight months and two seasons out from the election, there is no Dem presidential candidate yet - and the candidate and the candidate's performance have major implications for down-ticket races.
Polling, if it is accurate (for however "accurate" they can be this early), is potentially useful for targeting campaign resources but very little else. It isn't predictive yet, even if it is accurate.
It's a hard map and it'll be a tough and very expensive fight, but gloating or panicking over it at this point is foolish.

My only thought is that Biden relied heavily on the black vote and it was James Clyborns' endorsement before SC primary that turned everything around for poor Joe. Biden has done so much pandering to the African American community that not naming a black VP might be viewed as a betrayal.

1) The parties and campaigns have their own captive polling units.
2) The captive polling units are very expensive to run.
3) The results from the captive polling units are typically kept secret.
4) The results from the captive polling units are used to guide campaign and party decision making.
Given this, what is the point of the other polling units? If they were good, the campaigns and parties wouldn't need to massive overhead of running their own polling and data operations - they could use the public data to make decisions. They don't. They spend eye-watering quantities of money on doing it themselves.
Which leads me to believe public polling serves only two potential purposes:
- Information
- Propaganda
Given that it is impossible to differentiate in most cases, take all of it with at least a grain of salt. Remember that the parties and campaigns don't take it at all.

Give me guys with power, MELODY and chops. Geddy Lee, Chris Squire, John Wetton.
The fiercest, most in-your-face bass playing I've ever heard came from Wetton in King Crimson. On the live recordings from that era, his bass sounded like it wanted to rape and pillage entire cities. "The Talking Drum/Larks' Tongues in Aspic Pt. II" from The Night Watch is actually frightening.

Also, the timing of the polls.
Their final poll, where they finally applied a voter screen that was remotely accurate, was pretty good.
Are they applying these filters for the general election in states yet? Every indication is no. They're doing what every other polling firm does and knowingly place their thumb on the scale for Democrats by using adults instead of likely voters and screwing with partisan makeup that won't be remotely accurate.
Grain of salt at worst. Complete dismissal at best.

I've was polled by PPP twice in 18 (in WI). The first was very straightforward. "If the election was held today would you vote for..." and "Do you approve of the job..." The only possible bias was the Dem candidate was always mentioned first.
The second time they called it was on behalf of a health care group and it was an out and out push poll. Numerous leading issuequestions before the horserace inquiry.
If PPP releases a poll, always check and see if it's done for themselves or some advocacy group. The accuracy isn't even in the same ballpark.

I actually believe this.
I'm sure it's the same thing that was decimating the SE PA area this past fall. there were deaths including one of my great aunts. but this is not uncommon when it starts getting cold, bad flus go around the nursing homes and hospitals.
someone travelled from HERE to China and passed on a virus that was novel enough to them - and the pollution there (and levels of smoking among adults) was enough to push it from nasty flu to killer virus.

Oil had been up a bit on hopes that OPEC would cut back production, Russia just torpedoed the whole deal by saying they were going to pump as much as they could no matter what.
Russia has to do that, btw, because Putin's govm't is going broke and their only hope of staying solvent is to sell all the oil they can at any price.
This is going to be a drag on the market short term as oil stocks go down, but it is completely external to the US, and in the long run actually will increase US Consumer disposable income.

The bias I refer to is implicit, and it's been present in all polling done over the last 20 years - it's in the sample selection. "All voters" always give results that are 5 - 10 points more favorable to the Dems than "Likely voters". And "All adults" are nonsense polls that really give no useful information at all. Screening for "likely voters" is expensive and time consuming, though.

The issue is always couched in terms of a "study." Even Booker put his plan out there this way.
Like others have said here, I'm in favor. If every bit of affirmative action is torched in the process.

Per the US State Departments website, as of yesterday, foreign nationals who have traveled to China will be denied entry to the USA. American citizens who have traveled to China are subject to a 14 day quarantine upon returning to the USA if they visited Wuhan, and may possibly be subject to a 14 day quarantine if they traveled anywhere else in China. The US State Dept. has issued for the past two weeks a DO NOT TRAVEL level 4 notice for China.
The State Dept. has numerous Level 4 travel notices for countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, South Sudan, North Korea, Mali, Libya, Syria, Somalia, Burkina Faso, Central African Republic, Venezuela, and Yemen. China is also on that list, Italy is a level 3 generally and a Level 4 for the northern areas where Covid 19 is located.
The idea that people are casually traveling to these areas, then coming back and being told they should stay home is absurd. Right now there is an entire cruise ship floating off the coast of California because a prior cruise had a passenger who came down with coronavirus and died after returning home. Everyone on the ship is quarantined.

Cheesemaking is a break-even proposition. Two gallons of milk for $8 gives ~two pounds of cheese. A store-bought 'brick' of "cheddar" costs about as much. Figure in the cost of culture, rennet, calcium chloride, and the electricity to age it for a year, and it costs slightly more to make it.
That's offset by the fact that the result tastes like cheddared cheese, not orange modeling clay.
Carry on.

He didn't. But then all his posts were deleted, so he can't prove his case.

Perhaps a bit of an overreaction, but Silicon Valley is a hodge-podge of people. Lots of foreigners, mostly from South and East Asia, and the number of people shuttling back and forth is pretty high. The Bay Area would be risky even if their public sanitation was up to snuff.

Quote:
"I think that, uh, the behavior of this administration has awakened, uh, a whole new generation to get engaged in ways that they may not have gotten before," Biden said, referring to President Donald Trump and the current tumult. "Just like in my generation, when I got out of school that, uh, when Bobby Kennedy and Dr. King had been assassinated in the '70s, uh, late seven -when I got engaged, um, you know, up to that time, remember the, none of you women will know this, but a couple men may remember, that was a time in the early, late '60s, and the early '60s and '60s, where it was drop out and go to Haight-Ashbury, don't get engaged, dont trust anybody over 30. I mean, for real. What happened to them, by the, by the early '70s, the late '60s, there was a whole generation that said, 'Enough.' The war in Vietnam was underway, and it was - a lot of you served in that war - and, uh, we were fighting like the devil to make sure that there was something dealing with cleaning up the environment, which was only beginning. We were in a position where the women's movement was just beginning to move. We should have, by now, long before, passed the ERA amendment, but that was another issue..."

That reads like the Bloom County strip where candidate Opus is prepping for a speech. Come to think of it, Opus made more sense.

Do I gather correctly upthread that the "comb" with which Klobuchar was reduced to eating her salad was not, like, a man's ordinary comb, but one of those afro-fluffers called a "pick"? (I think I may still have one somewhere deep in the catacombs, from my brief afro-ish days, not enough decades ago.)
I can see washing a pick off, pouring some alcohol on it, and it would serve. I just couldn't figure it out before.
Don't make me think a tiny bit better of Klobuchar. Please!
Although the thing is not that she ate with a comb but that she was b!+¢#y to her underlings about it, so the story went. So, no change.

Drum kit refers to Buck Naked and the Bare Bottom Boys, a seminal San Francisco Band, for 80s bands anyway.
Buck Naked was killed by a homeless guy about 20 years ago, I think in Golden Gate Park. So this is an homage.
