Mid-Morning Art Thread
Mihaly Munkacsy From commenter "runner" comes a new artist, at least for me and him! I couldn't find a good copy of the one he sent along, but Mr. Munckacsy is an accomplished artist, so the one above should work, but take a look at runner's link. The subject is marvelous!
This an interesting painting by an artist I never heard of, but who is world famous in Hungary - Mihaly Munkacsy (good bio on wiki). I believe the title is "MOZART UTOLSÓ PILLANATAI – HALÁLA" , roughly translated as "Mozart's Last Moments - Death." I saw another title for it - "Mozart Conducts Requiem on Death Bed". Which I find more interesting.[100 comment rule...please take it seriously.]

My *guess* would be gas. I can't find a date on this painting, but the artist lived from 1844-1900. Electric lamps among the gentility is not inconceivable but is probably unlikely.

The fabric, wall hanging, her dress, the detailed lamp. (Painter really got into that lamp!) The interplay of horizontal (mainly the girl), vertical draping, and lampshade diagonals (something something). Intricate.
However, of the girl we see her face - barely a cheek - and a hand, a foot (I think that's what that is). She's practically an afterthought, a minor character in her own painting. Still life in the ol' girl.
The invading army of giant alien spider-monsters outside the window was a nice touch.

My expedition to WM was successful. Paper towels were out, but I grabbed a roll of shop towels in the auto section. No TP except for two or three $10 mega-packs, so I scooped up a box of Kleenex clone tissues. English muffins and rolls instead of their own brand of bread. Bananas too.

There was a BBC series a few years back called The 1900 House, where a modern family moved into a restored flat and had to live just as a family in London in 1900 would. The mother and daughter both had to wear corsets and said that they were surprised how comfortable they were and how quickly you got used to them.
I do love those fashion videos; they make me wish I could sew, because I would dress like a man from the 'teens, myself. Edwardian fashion, though I love it, is a little too "costumey" for modern wear (and a man can't get away with it as much as a lady can). It also brings to mind a comment by Beau Brummell - when told about a man who was so well dressed that people stopped in the street to look at him, Brummell replied, "Then he was not well dressed."
I would like to be able to wear plus-fours, myself.

I still firmly believe that replacing Biden with Cuomo will do massive damage to the Democratic Party.
I mean, there's Biden leaving Bernie in the dust in terms of delegates, and then there's Biden winning most of the delegates, dropping out of the race, and the party passing over the guy who got the second most delegates for someone who didn't even run in the primary.

If he demands proof of a quorum and a roll call vote on the bill, he'll get flak for making people have to risk their health and the health of others to come back. If he doesn't and they wind up voice voting the bill instead, he'll get flak for making people come back for nothing.

Then the MFM gets the marching orders. They can act all shocked, don't lose face for putting an alzheimer's patient on the stage, and at worst it's a brokered convention.
I don't think they can move ahead just yet until Bernie is fully out of the picture. He's probably out after visiting a few more open houses in Malibu or Aspen.

At this point, he's going to take heat whether they have to roll call this bill or not. If he demands proof of a quorum and a roll call vote on the bill, he'll get flak for making people have to risk their health and the health of others to come back. If he doesn't and they wind up voice voting the bill instead, he'll get flak for making people come back for nothing.

Sunset Joe verily is the frontrunner and the likely nominee at this point. The real bone of contention is the VP nominee, who will likely pull a John Tyler and succeed him in office, and the standby nominee to then become the new VP.
Not that it matters anyway, because even with Corona-chan running cover for the Democrats Trump still is the likely winner.

Without short-selling, there is no way to make money if the market goes down - and no way to get those price signals.
Naked shorting (where you don't necessarily possess the shares you're selling, at least not yet) is a different matter but a legitimate short of "borrow shares, sell shares, buy back shares, return shares" is not that. Naked shorting should be a crime.

I really don't see Cuomo coming off as presidential with his daily pressers--he's always whining and complaining about the Feds not doing enough--plus NY is really bad and fumbled the ball at the very start.
Also, he's been giving a lot of credit to Trump--so how can he turn on a dime? He'd come off s a backstabber.
And does he help the Democrats get the states they NEED to beat Trump?

The bill may be a POS, but without it our markets collapse, our economy collapses, our pensions collapse, and then our society collapses. This is why I put effort in past days into trying to show how far out we are on the knife's edge right now. We have a very, very narrow pathway to survival as a nation, and as a society. This bill is a downpayment on what must be done; if Trump can get things starting to reopen after Easter, we may not have to double it. (and of course it is not the Virus that is destroying us, that will pass - it is these shutdowns and what we are doing to ourselves that is madness)
We're out of time, and out of options. Trump gets it, as does everyone else close to him.

The pros and cons of the bill notwithstanding, it's been known for a week now that whatever the Senate passed was going to pass the House, period. The question was whether they would have to roll call it. The preference all week has been to avoid a roll call in order to let members of the House stay home instead of putting themselves and others at risk by having to come back to DC, since the House was in recess last week and has remained that way until today. Thus, the desire for a voice vote, and people can still yell "No!"

Get used to it. We now have a market based solely on political considerations. For every day that is up, there will be a strong cash in the gains day the next day.
What this bill is doing is NOT "restoring" the economy, it is buying us about 30 days of survival. All of the fundamentals are still horrible at the moment, but now we've got a little bit of time to work with.

The President does not have the constitutional power to enact new spending by Executive Order. If he's going to do that, then he should just go ahead, call in the 101st Airborne, place all congressmen and senators in Detention, and rename himself Lord Protector for Life.

They re-opened the theaters with a bunch of old blockbusters that they don't have to pay much to Hollywood, like Harry Potter. The fees to show that in theaters are tiny compared to new stuff.
They were desperate to get people back to the theaters.

"China's experience with reinfection following initial containment show how necessary quarantines, lockdowns and social-distancing measures are, potentially for long periods of time. It is essential that the US not make reckless decisions regarding "getting back to work" instead of maintaining shelter in place orders. The government must not prioritize the economy over human life."

Apparently, my household is getting it, and we're going to use it to help pay for the final repairs to the old house before the sale.
Replacing the vapor barrier came out more expensive than we realized.

I always liked that one - it was so 'casual'. Still one of my favorite tunes. And about a week ago, I learned what it was about. I'm not big on 'the story' behind tunes since I heard it back...shit, when it came out and just found out who it was about.

I would believe it.
I remember watching the Republican National Convention on CNN - the one where McCain was the nominee. Palin made her speech from the podium, and the CNN cameraman tried to make her look bad by filming her from behind, showing her reading from the teleprompter.
The only problem was, the speech wasn't scrolling, probably because of a technical difficulty. It didn't stop her from continuing with her speech, seemingly from memory.
The camera cut away from her pretty quickly after that.

Let's turn our brains back on. The dems are the ones that held this thing up by trying to put all kinds of crap into it. Ignoring the constitution to ram this thing though would be an _extremely_ dangerous precedent.

This.
Republicans are going to be excoriated over this, even if they had nothing to do with the delay.
(Ask yourself - are there any MSM articles blaming Pelosi for the delay, even now?)
If we're going to get the blame, might as well stand on principle for a moment or two.

TV with this Bill, seperate out the Corona Provisions and the Non-Corona
Provisions line by line.
Trump's smart, which is why he'll sign it.
The Overton Window currently is at "you must be seen to be DOING SOMETHING about this". That's why his poll numbers are good. If he plays any games with it after slamming Pelosi for playing games with it, Biden wins in a landslide.

Yep, the smart thing to do would be to put out the candidate(s) you intend to run in 2024 to give them some name recognition. Sortof how Obama got his introduction to the nation at the Convention in 2004. That was his springboard to run in 2008.
