I always loved rough seas: I don't get seasick and bad weather underway made for a short chow line. Plus, stuff like this is more pronounced on a frigate. It's like being on a slow-motion roller coaster.

Holy smokes. Is the viewer looking backwards at the swells they just navigated, or are they heading into the swells? Either way, yikes!

When I first looked at today's art, all I could think of was an ill-fated charter fishing trip I went on shortly after moving to NH. Seas were 6ft+ and we went out towards the Isles of Shoals. Talk about getting sea sick. First thing to go was the Dramamine. I hugged the rail while chumming for the entire 4hr trip.

Notice the lonely vigil of the Aft Lookout.
In my experience, (7 times across the Atlantic), these deep of swells will have grey skies, not blue. And the wake would attenuate faster than this. Maybe this ship has a Masker system on the prop. Single prop, because of the wake. Posted by: NaCly Dog at February 26, 2021 09:44 AM (u82oZ) 60

I love paintings that show the power of the ocean and this one captures it. The scale of the dark waves following the boat, overshadowing the man made device. The huge expanse of water and sky with the boat at the very bottom of the frame. (Hope that doesn't foreshadow anything.) It all adds up to a sense of peril and drama that hits the viewer.
Posted by: JTB at February 26, 2021 09:47 AM (7EjX1) 76
The best part of rough seas is hitting your head because you started climbing a stairwell while the boat was rising and then became lighter as it fell.

AZ Hi Desert (Gringo fuertemente armado-Tempus Belli)
Nay. Seeing the horizon is steadying, as is having duty and responsibility to steady you. Steep pitching can be unsettling for me, unlike rolls, which I never minded. Only puked once, due to deep swells, a greasy breakfast, being below decks near the bow, and the smell of a Diesel Fuel Marine leak (which I was investigating). Embarrassing.

I didn't think the Navy had Sargents.
Posted by: Nosmo King at February 26, 2021 09:40 AM (m45I2) Back in the ol' spice routes days, there were sergeants on ships, but they found the enlisted men were all too fond of picking up addictive substances in the far east, after which they were useless. If it was just the lowly shipmen, that was fine, but it started infecting the sergeants. Back then they called any and all those addictive substances thyme. And at some point, I think it was in the 1700s, the Royal Navy decided they would no longer allow ANY ship to dock in locales where they were selling thyme. The end result? No more sergeants in the Navy. Posted by: BurtTC at February 26, 2021 09:51 AM (oQ94s) 88

Posted by: ShainS at February 26, 2021 09:47 AM (WqPYg) The dive planes, rudder, and righting moment are pretty much it.

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at February 26, 2021 09:42 AM I made that mistake on a cruise to Bermuda years ago. A hurricane had just passed by the island, and the seas were huge.

into dropping out of the GA Senate race when PDT told him he was urging Walker to run? Perdue went to Trump to ask for his blessing, and Trump said "nahhhhh". Shortly thereafter, Perdue dropped out. There's a lesson here for Liz Cheney. Posted by: pep at February 26, 2021 10:23 AM (v16oJ) 197

Recently finished a great biography of Leonardo da Vinci by Walter Isaacson -- learned a lot and really helped me appreciate the genius and subtleties of his art and his revolutionary combining of art and science.
Anyway, Leonardo carried a number of his classic works with him over decades -- occasionally adding a touch here and a touch there. Posted by: ShainS at February 26, 2021 10:19 AM (WqPYg) Visiting the chateaus in the Loire valley of France usually had at least one da Vinci drawing in most of them.

Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at February 26, 2021 10:21 AM (BMmaB) I've found the worst is exciting the dutchroll. Get the pilot to yaw to equilibrium, disengage autopilot/control law/yaw dampers then let go of the yoke/stik. At the more neutral CyB CnB dutchroll will just go and go. If you're head down or oriented out of the aircrafts primary axis and watching horizon that hits the stomach empty button. In flight test, which I only have a ground support experience in, that's what washes out a test engineer the quickest. Large pitch maneuvers, negative G, snap rolls, they can normally get through. But a little dutchroll and they're done. Posted by: banana Dream at February 26, 2021 10:30 AM (SFSVc) 227

Biden is now concerned about chip shortages in the US, specifically graphics cards. https://tinyurl.com/856dnca2
I've been trying to buy a new GPU for months, without much success, and I certainly agree with strengthening our supply chain, especially by restoring our own manufacturing capacity. However, what exactly does Biden have to do with any of this, other than getting government the hell out of business' way? Are some of those humanities and gender studies majors that he's hiring going to straighten out the fab lines? Will the higher wages he wants to legislate and the "diversity" he wants to mandate make us more competitive? In fact, everything in his and his party's portfolio of actions will make things worse. But I guess he (or more likely, his puppetmasters) see this as an opportunity to pretend they're doing something useful. Posted by: pep at February 26, 2021 10:31 AM (v16oJ) 230

Someone explained ranks to me once like this:
It goes back to the British Army in the 18th century. The company has a captain, a lieutenant, and a major sergeant (today called a sergeant major). The regiment is a collection of companies, and it has a colonel, a lieutenant colonel, and a major-colonel (which today we call major). The field army is a collection of regiments, and it has a general, a lieutenant general, and a major-general. Later on the brigade (commanded by a brigadier) was added between the army and the regiment and the field marshal was added to command multiple armies, but that was basically how the British Army was organized for hundreds of years. The Americans mostly copied the British model. Posted by: Caesar North of the Rubicon at February 26, 2021 10:33 AM (BMmaB) 240

The last election is just another reminder of how incompetent the Republican party is.
Everyone knew there would be fraud. Trump warned about it at every rally. If the RNC was competent, there would have been a squad of lawyers at every swing state site that was controlled by democrats. They would have had judges on speed dial for court orders to allow real observers and access to everything. But, being the stupid party made up of idiots who send money to the party without any accountability, nothing like that happened. So the democrats took advantage and cheated like the cocksuckers they are. I believe Trump has learned his lesson concerning hiring people who are loyal and know how to do a job properly. Crowder is absolutely right, any fraud charge needs to be something that is investigated and proven. Maybe we could get him to run the RNC.

Perdue had to assume Doug Collins would very likely be on the ballot, too, when he initially filed. That's why I think a name was mentioned that would embarrass him, the other candidate would poll so well.

NYPost:
Bonilla barged into the victim's home, and threatened him with a handgun and a metal pipe. He tied up the man in his bedroom, and said, "You are not going to die, but you are going to have something to remember this for your whole life," according to the outlet. The married father of five from El Salvador then pulled down the victim's shorts and said, "This is normal, you will not die today." Bonilla took a pair of scissors and began cutting the man's penis, splattering blood everywhere. He continued threatening the man before leaving the home with the severed organ, the Smoking Gun reported. The victim's two daughters were in the home during the incident. Doctors have been unable to reattach the victim's penis and he's been having trouble with urinating and having sexual intercourse with his wife.

-Liz Cheney Posted by: TheJamesMadison, paying for my sins on the Scorsese streets at February 26, 2021 10:51 AM (LvTSG) What I really don't understand about Liz Cheney is that the side she's supporting did everything they could to put her dad in jail. When that didn't work, they settled for his closest advisor, who didn't get the benefit of the doubt from W, so was left twisting in the breeze after W's second term. Trump then did what W wouldn't do, and pardoned Scooter Libby. What bothers me even more, now that I think about it, is that Dick Cheney couldn't tell his daughter to zip it, and that Scooter didn't even give as much as a word of thanks to Trump after he pardoned him. Ungrateful scum, all around. To think that I even have Cheney's book as well (which was pretty good). Posted by: Darrell Harris at February 26, 2021 10:54 AM (4tiP2) 319

A real RNC chairperson would be seizing the opportunity in 2022 of having 75 million pissed off Trump voters ready to crawl through broken glass to revenge vote.
Of course, our RNC chairperson won't be doing that. So, a Trump appointed leader (I believe it should be Donald Jr.) should be on a jet every day recruiting local, state and federal candidates from Trump loyalists. Primary squishes in red districts and get good challengers in blue districts that can be turned. Establish a new 401c3 that people can contribute to that doesn't go into the RNC coffers. Run as republicans with the goal of taking over the RNC completely after 2022. Posted by: jwest at February 26, 2021 10:58 AM (/BlEx) 333
Keep in mind that Dr. Levine, now in his mid-60's, was married and had two kids, and didn't start dressing as a woman and presenting himself to the public as a woman until sometime in his late 40's or early 50's. I first heard of his transition about 10 or 12 years ago from a med school classmate who is always up on the latest alumni gossip and who goes to the class reunions every couple of years. So, either:
1.He transitioned as a young man and hid it for years, making him a fraud then. 2. He remains un-mangled with working male parts, making him a fraud now 3. He transitioned in middle age, making him mentally deranged He has betrayed the public trust in two ways that we know of. He pulled him mother from a nursing home during early 2020 as COVID was on the rise, then okayed the PA governor's strategy of sending COVID positive seniors back into nursing homes. And he advocates for bypassing parental rights in the decision making process of handling gender confusion issues in young teens. He should not be confirmed (on these grounds) and should go disappear from the public eye and live out his silver years as an Angela Lansbury stunt double.

With two exceptions, every job I have had, has been through knowing someone. This includes my first job working at a coffee shop that I got because my BFF at the time was related to the owner. Networking is everything. And not so much the act of networking like attending conferences and shit. Just knowing people and forging long term relationships.

Posted by: Red Turban Someguy - The Republic is Already Dead at February 26, 2021 11:00 AM (Zm+LZ) Generally no. In lots of engineering management is still pretty engineering heavy.

Now this can happen, incompetent no nothings managing a gaggle of engineers but the results are generally tragic. Posted by: banana Dream at February 26, 2021 11:04 AM (SFSVc) 356

Politics isn't about getting the right people into position. It's about getting the wrong people to do the right thing.
Posted by: TheJamesMadison, paying for my sins on the Scorsese streets at February 26, 2021 11:00 AM (LvTSG) One of the things that I've noted from Saul Alinsky's book, which I'm reading right now, is that he quotes FDR, who said that it's not enough to get a policy or person into office, but we have to keep the pressure on them as well. Unfortunately, as an electorate we've stopped caring once we got the grifter over the finish line on Election Day. This needs to stop. They need to be constantly afraid of the peasants that can revolt at any time. Posted by: Darrell Harris at February 26, 2021 11:07 AM (4tiP2) 373
340 With two exceptions, every job I have had, has been through knowing someone. This includes my first job working at a coffee shop that I got because my BFF at the time was related to the owner. Networking is everything. And not so much the act of networking like attending conferences and shit. Just knowing people and forging long term relationships. My current gig was through someone I worked with 10 years ago who called me and asked if I would be interested in a position her company was looking to fill.
Posted by: Joe XiDen at February 26, 2021 11:01 AM (DV9JA) Yeah but what you are doing is being...sincere. You have long term relationships with people so that helps. "Networking" is knowing people strictly in order to get ahead. (If you step on them later or screw them later? Too bad.) I just wish Americans would stop lying about this bullshit "meritocracy" thing. If you don't know anybody - and I certainly don't know gobs and gobs of people - your one option is "starve".

Muldoon in his second paragraph in 333 gives excellent reasons for why Dr. Levine should not be confirmed, aside from Dr. Levine's own stability and provides a good basis for writing to your Congresspeople today.

When poll workers were threatened and intimidated, they should have known what the rules about intimidation are, and do something about that as well. That's on the RNC as well.

continuing from previous post. the fraud people say they witnessed has been disproven. The story and video of the truck pulling up in the middle of the night with ballots? Yes, these were ballots that were dropped off in drop boxes throughout Wayne county, totalled 16,000 and had a chain of custody with them. Do I think that is a great way to manage ballots, of course not, but it was not illegal. I was stunned to hear during the Michigan election hearings the woman who was an election certifier and had refused to certifiy Wayne county due to discrepencies between poll books and ballots admit to the committee that her estimation was that around 450 votes were unaccounted for. Now maybe I heard her wrong. But I was under the assumption that it was thousands of votes, not 450. Do I believe Joe Biden won Michigan by 14x what Trump did? No I don't . I think the voting machine tallies are the answer and since Trump's brilliant lawyers did NOT ask for a recount, we may never know .
