Fire in the Hole: Man Gets Flammable Deodorant Stuck in His Rectum Doctors in India are warning about a peculiar hazard. In a new case study this week, they detail having to remove a can of aerosol spray deodorant from a patient’s rectum. It’s a injury made even more potentially dangerous due to the risk of fire or explosion should the offending object be removed “using cautery or any energy device,” they write. Household objects getting stuck inside people’s butts is nothing new. Sometimes, this behavior can be the result of mental illness or curiosity among people (often kids) who just didn’t know better. A lot of the time, though, it happens for exactly the reason you would think—sex stuff. But according to the authors of this new paper, published Monday in BMJ Case Reports, they are the first doctors to report finding a “deodorant aerosol spray can” inside a patient’s rectum. The discovery was apparently enough to compel them to issue a warning to others about the possible risks that could come with this particular kind of rectal object. Technology and betterment will always go on with man. However, I just want to be left alone. Bethesda, MD (May 22, 2021) -- An artificial intelligence tool under development at Duke University can be added to the standard toilet to help analyze patients' stool and give gastroenterologists the information they need to provide appropriate treatment, according to research that was selected for presentation at Digestive Disease Week® (DDW) 2021. The new technology could assist in managing chronic gastrointestinal issues such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). "Typically, gastroenterologists have to rely on patient self-reported information about their stool to help determine the cause of their gastrointestinal health issues, which can be very unreliable," said Deborah Fisher, MD, one of the lead authors on the study and associate professor of medicine at Duke University Durham, North Carolina. "Patients often can't remember what their stool looks like or how often they have a bowel movement, which is part of the standard monitoring process. The Smart Toilet technology will allow us to gather the long-term information needed to make a more accurate and timely diagnosis of chronic gastrointestinal problems." What's the difference between a Pusher and Washington-based progressive group called the Economic Security Project? Nothing. Both peddle addictive substances. In the mean time, if Biden, Congressional Democrats, and Congressional Republicans cannot agree on a relief measure, Americans will suffer from its absence. For this reason, a Washington-based progressive group called the Economic Security Project has proposed a novel measure to avoid this deadlock: “automatic stabilizer” payments. Put simply, an automatic stabilizer is a fourth stimulus check that does not need further Congressional approval to pass. Instead of being tied to Congress’s immediate approval, they would be scheduled to kick in automatically following negative economic indicators, such as a spike in unemployment rates or a decrease in household income. This idea seems far-fetched and unusual, but it is already gaining some traction on Capitol Hill. Last week, fifty staffers from the Senate Finance Committee attended a presentation by the Economic Security Project. And eighty Democratic members of Congress are already in favor of further stimulus payments, although these payments would undoubtedly meet stiff resistance from Republicans (and, it has been argued, might not be necessary for the economy). You really should watch this. If not tonight, definitely tomorrow. It's all fun and games until somebody puts it up on social media. HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — A TikTok video announcing a birthday party was viewed more than 3 million times, which led to a mass of humanity descending upon the scene in Huntington Beach on Saturday. The police were forced to declare an unlawful assembly and arrested 149 partygoers for a variety of crimes. Ahhh good old Milwaukee. The other "Mistake on the lake". Judge orders former police chief reinstated – who was demoted after refusing to punish cops for enforcing laws MILWAUKEE, WI- The former chief of the Milwaukee Police Department may be getting his job back in 45 days unless a settlement is reached between his attorneys and the city, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Such was the order of Milwaukee County Judge Christopher Foley last Wednesday. Foley’s ruling came after former chief Alfonso Morales’ legal team asked the judge to force the city to put Morales back in his former position. Last week, Washington Gov. Jay Inslee—the guy who, while running for president two years ago, proposed a nationwide ban on sales of gas-powered cars by 2030—vetoed a statewide ban on gas-powered car sales by 2030. The reason for the puzzling move, Inslee said in a statement, was a provision tucked into the legislation. The language said the 2030 target would take effect only if lawmakers created a program to charge drivers based on how far they drive each year. You want to drive an EV, fine. You don't want to pay per mile, fine. How about we charge you say $1,500 per year to register your vehicle. Don't ever accuse The ONT of not remembering historic events. A Brief History of the Cheez-It - America’s iconic orange cracker turns 100 this year Dayton’s historic Edgemont neighborhood is cocooned inside a crook in the Great Miami River, a winding waterway that snakes through the heart of southwest Ohio. Two miles from downtown, with its air of industry, the community hearkens to a time when Dayton was hailed “The City of A Thousand Factories.” In the early 20th century, inside a foregone factory on the corner of Concord and Cincinnati Streets, Green & Green cracker company cooked up its Edgemont product line, a collection of grahams, crackers and gingersnaps that were shipped across the region. But of the company’s four Edgemont products, only one, in particular, a flaky one-by-one-inch cheese cracker, would revolutionize snack time. On May 23, 1921, when Green & Green decided to trademark the tasty treat’s unique name, the Cheez-It was born. Speaking of cheese. A photo of cheese leads to arrest and conviction of a drug dealer. A man has been jailed for 13 years after his fingerprints were analysed from a photo of a block of cheese. Carl Stewart shared the M&S Stilton picture - but made the mistake of showing his fingers and palm. ASHTABULA, Ohio (WJW) — The Ashtabula Sheriff’s Office and ATF agents are investigating after a 55-year-old Clay Street resident died when an improvised explosive device he was making exploded in his garage. Gender studies. Why not video game studies for credit? At least six Cal State campuses and nearly all of the University of California campuses have created esports programs since 2015, in which students host and compete in live tournaments, sometimes funded by corporate sponsors. Growing up as the youngest child of four, Fernando Gomez would often pass the time by watching his two older brothers play the video games Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy while sitting cross-legged on his brother’s bed. Gaming “kind of brought us together,” Gomez said. It also inspired him to create San Francisco State University’s first student-run esports program as an undergrad — experience he parlayed into a post-grad job as the digital content coordinator for the Portland Trailblazers. “That experience is 100% why I’m here today, doing what I do now,” Gomez said. I'm guessing a 2 year Vo-Tech school isn't fancy enough. Moar insanity from the University of California Berkeley A executive search firm revealed that the University of California, Berkeley has a budget of $25 million per year for their Division of Equity and Inclusion. According to Storbeck Search—a firm hired by UC-Berkeley—the university allocates a budget portfolio of $25 million per year for the Division of Equity and Inclusion. 58% of the budget comes from campus and state funds, 31% from federal and state public service grants, and 11% from philanthropy and public grants. “As Berkeley strives towards the ideals of an inclusive, uplifting, anti-racist, and justice-centered campus during this unprecedented time in higher education and in the world, the University seeks a collaborative, solutions-oriented leader and accomplished visionary to serve as the next Vice Chancellor for Equity and Inclusion,” read the program layout. The university announced on Feb. 18 that Storbeck Search would be assisting with the search for a new Vice Chancellor, Equity & Inclusion. Regarding that position, let me guess. Heterosexual Caucasian males need not apply even if you majored in gaming and minored in gender studies. There is commonly held to be a difference between a sexual preference and a sexual orientation. Sexual preferences include preferences for blondes over brunettes, or macho men over pretty boys. At the more exotic end, they can include predilections for cars, chandeliers, and dalliances with farm animals. None of these are sexual orientations, though. Opinions differ on what makes an orientation an orientation, but my preferred explanation says that for a preference to count as an orientation, it has to be stable in individuals, widespread among the human population, and have a range of relatively important social consequences. Two such orientations are heterosexuality and homosexuality. They are defined in terms of specific patterns of attraction. You are heterosexual if you, a member of one sex, are stably sexually attracted only to members of the opposite sex to you. Alternatively, if you’re stably attracted only to members of the same sex as you, then you’re homosexual. If you’re stably attracted to both sexes, you’re bisexual. In addition to these terms, equally applicable to both males and females, the English language has words to describe homosexual orientations disaggregated by sex. “Lesbians” are same-sex-attracted females. There are other sex-disaggregated words, too, often pretty negative: “faggots,” “dykes,” etc. Putting things this way will, I predict, raise the hackles of readers schooled in queer theory, and in particular fans of French post-structuralist Michel Foucault. It is a commonplace there that orientations are—just as biological sex categories are for Judith Butler—socially constructed, historically contingent, and culturally located. As trans scholar Jack (then non-trans Judith) Halberstam summarises approvingly: “Within a Foucauldian history of sexuality, ‘lesbian’ constitutes a term for same-sex desire produced in the mid-to-late twentieth century within the highly politicized context of the rise of feminism … if this is so, then ‘lesbian’ cannot be the transhistorical label for all same-sex activity between women.” My short answer is that, while obviously we need to acknowledge the interesting fact that throughout the ages, same-sex activity has had many different relatively local sociocultural meanings and names, it wasn’t invented in the 20th century. I’m talking about distinctive, relatively ahistorical patterns of sexual relationship in individuals, and not particular cultural representations of that pattern. That’s a coherent distinction to make. So Lesbians aren't attracted to this? Go figure........ 1968 saw "The Population Bomb" published. A book written by Paul R. Ehrlich and his wife, Anne Ehrlich. Of course the dire predictions didn't come true. Nor did the Ehrlich's predict, POPULATION DECLINE IS TURNING EARTH INTO A GHOST TOWN, EXPERTS SAY - "GHOST CITIES" ARE LEARNING TO ADAPT TO SHOCKINGLY-LOW NUMBERS OF BIRTHS. Countries around the world are beginning to reckon with a years-long drop in new births that has skewed population demographics heavily toward older age groups. Thanks to that near-global drop in fertility rates, experts suggest that the planet’s population could enter a period of continued decline for the first time in known human history by the second half of the 21st century, The New York Times reports. In a more local perspective, some cities are already reckoning with the challenges of precipitous drops in new births, the NYT reports, including “ghost cities” in China and maternity wards with too few births to justify staying open in Italy. Some South Korean universities have so few students that the government is pressuring them to merge with others, and entire towns where deaths outnumber births are being consolidated in Japan. “A paradigm shift is necessary,” former United Nations chief of population trends and analysis Frank Swiaczny told the NYT. “Countries need to learn to live with and adapt to decline.” Born on this day:24 May 1941 The lack of dedication, can make you a Genius Award Winner.

They were heavily leveraged by big Boeing and when they went TU I knew Aerion wouldn't be far behind. Lots of engineering and management were being siphoned from other companies and now poof their jobs are gone. Posted by: banana Dream at May 24, 2021 09:00 PM (l6b3d) 17

"You want to drive an EV, fine. You don't want to pay per mile, fine. How about we charge you say $1,500 per year to register your vehicle."
Simply require that EV's only accept charging from a 3-phase source at 330 volts, a non-standard service voltage. This would require a 3-phase line, and a step-down transformer, and this device would have its own meter, to record the price of the energy, and the road tax applied by the State.

Very annoying to the OCD sufferers. Speaking of such things, just loaded another 50 rounds of practice ammo for the boss's snub-nose (she doesn't call it hers, but she likes it/shoots it well, so it will be her bedside gun). S&W Model 60. Posted by: rhomboid at May 24, 2021 09:11 PM (OTzUX) 67

65 "You want to drive an EV, fine. You don't want to pay per mile, fine. How about we charge you say $1,500 per year to register your vehicle."
Simply require that EV's only accept charging from a 3-phase source at 330 volts, a non-standard service voltage. This would require a 3-phase line, and a step-down transformer, and this device would have its own meter, to record the price of the energy, and the road tax applied by the State.

If you listen to ATC and BCochran's podcast you'll have heard a few times that pro-video game players age out at around 25. That's about the time your response time begins to slow down and you're no longer able to play at a competitive level.

Baron - yep, works like a charm on the CZ mags. Se deus e todos os orixas quiser, I'll have CZ-75 mags to load some day, too. The XD came with its own mag loader.
Garand en bloc clips are interesting. There is definitely a "way" to load them by hand - think I learned it on a UToob video. 5 rounds, all in hand, load them and keep some pressure on them - then just snap the last 3 into place. There are M1 clip-loading presses out there, I think. Nice, simple things, look sorta like juicers, with the big handle. All leftovers/surplus from the M1's duty days.

Posthumous Genius Award Winner dies insolvent.
ASHTABULA, Ohio (WJW) --The Ashtabula Sheriff's Office and ATF agents are investigating after a 55-year-old Clay Street resident died when an improvised explosive device he was making exploded in his garage. Sheriff officials say a neighbor told them the man was making the explosive in his garage and had planned to sell it to pay off a lawnmower he recently purchased. 1. I hope the lawnmower survived. Maybe it was in an outbuilding? B. "Static Electricity" and "Powder in the Threads" are not your friends. III. What kind of neighborhood is this?

Re Dylan, being more of a country and bluegrass guy, I only really checked out Dylan's music in the past decade or so when I kept hearing great songs recorded by others, only to find out they were written by Dylan. These included Dolly singing "Don't Think Twice"; Doug Sahm singing "Love Minus Zero"; Nitty Gritty singing "You Ain't Going Nowhere", etc. My wife asked me to learn to play Adele's "Make You Feel My Love" on guitar...I go to buy the sheet music and it's a Dylan song.

"Music" like "humor" is something that is experienced totally individually. Both are the most individual reactions that we, as a human(-ish) species can experience.

Leftists are wrong on the mechanisms that underpin human success. I think some of it is based on envy, not greed. They can tear down, but not build. Greed based capitalism, leavened by Christian beliefs, leads to success. Mediocrities tearing down the genius of the past and leads to death of a society. We have 150 years of data on this specific mechanism. And 6,000 years of improvement by the survivors is at risk. Hell, the Trump 4 years vs the Biden 100 days is a tell to the discerning and rational person. Posted by: NaCly Dog at May 24, 2021 09:49 PM (u82oZ) 275
94 Dylan, to me, is more of a poet than musician.
Posted by: chango lot at May 24, 2021 09:18 PM (g741k) The first time I saw Dylan in concert, he opened for The Dead at the Meadowlands in '94. Jerry's last show at the Meadowlands before he died. Jerry sucked. Bob was great, however, much to my surprise. Saw Dylan again when he opened for Phil and Friends at Jones Beach. That was a great show, because Joan Osborne sang with Phil, and Dylan's backing band was fantastic. I'm a fan. Posted by: Darrell Harris at May 24, 2021 09:50 PM (mdjgu) 276

And the dude's wife, once told that the place would be leveled and utterly destroyed preferred to stay there - in fact the whole family wouldn't leave knowing full well what would happen and literally had to be dragged away.

Reading a fun thread at The Hoffman Forum - Ever walked out on a major artist in concert?
Dylan seems to pop up a lot in the thread. Seems on off nights he's real bad, but I've never seen him. First one that came to my mind was the Faux Fleetwood Mac of the early 90s, with no Buckingham, no Nicks, a clearly bored and pissed Christine who was about to quit the band, and for some ungodly reason - Dave Mason. Dave Fking Mason. Yeah, I didn't get it either. Nobody did. Not even Fleetwood Mac. It. Was. Horrific. They should have been embarassed. I was, for them. We left during the 5th song and plenty of others were already streaming for the exits. Pat Benatar had opened and she killed, so at least there was that.

The endgame of the globalist lunatics is 500 million people on the planet. 2030 is a crucial year for their big cull.
The thing is they have to be pretty selective on who they cull. Someone needs to pick the lettuce, unclog the sewers, keep the lights on, conduct the abortions, treat the VD, make sure their jets don't collide or fall apart... There is no one person who can make a pencil. How to do you slaughter billions of people in a year and keep enough of the skilled people around to put up with the worthless elites bullshit? Its sort of like the lunacy of the Doomsday Billionaires who purchase and outfit missile silos for End of The World scenarios, and pretend that the security force they bring along won't decide the billionaire and his entourage are useless eaters a few hours after closing the hatch.

Until the sun goes down or the wind stops. I didn't know that AI is at the creative stage where it can discover new solutions and build better mousetraps. But the real problem for them is this: They are sadists. They are perverts. They enjoy hurting people because the ruthless and unrestrained demonstration of raw Power is an aphrodisiac. It is their Viagra and reason for living. They need people to hurt, children to rape, peons to suppress and enslave for their sick jollies and quest to be powerful.

Planted a bunch of marigolds today. Yesterday added a new hydrangea, so we have two. And about 50 pagoda flowers, which we've been giving away to the neighbors. They spread with runners instead of seeds, so they've doubled in population each summer. Also put in a new plumbago bush.
Nothing edible though, this year. I want a couple of honeybell orange trees, so maybe next week. Posted by: Taqiyyologist, Rickrolled by Jesus at May 24, 2021 10:58 PM (OssQ4) Posted by: Blanco Basura - moronhorde.com. Not insurgents, counterrevolutionaries. at May 24, 2021 10:58 PM (SchxB) 458

I agree except for gang violence. A lot of the
liberals I know make sure they live far, far away from neighborhoods that have gang violence. They're very fond of viewing Christians as hypocrites, but are oblivious to the fact that, for all their talk about diversity, they always end up living in the whitest suburbs available, and their children and grandchildren go to schools that are almost entirely white.

AOC, discussing her military service and trauma warns that on Jan 6 we were maybe 60 seconds away from a martial state, whatever that is, but is sounds scary. Apparently the millions of US armed forces, LEO, federal security forces, FBI etc... could not have removed a couple dozen yahoos armed with zip lines and cell phones from power if they had only 1 more minute to carry out their nefarious plan.

I'd expect much more of the wacky Belarus state air piracy stuff, or the equivalent, now that the US no longer is a factor. And Israel has planned for this day, but the working assumption is that "this day" would come much, much later than now (= hostile/bumbling administration, collapse of the Dem firewall in Congress).
Abraham Accords and a lot more, including things that aren't discussed, were the response to Obama idiocy, and vegetable administration's idiocy will surely deepen and expand the formal and informal pragmatic alliances against the Persian Shi'a menace.

weft-cut - seems like a clear-cut case of white supremacy, and systemic racism, to me (the Mpls traffic atrocity).
A few commentators keep a sort of informal score of the carnage (homicides, rapes, assaults) wrought by illegal aliens released by "sanctuary" jurisdictions, and of the damage by people who clearly should not be out in public, as in the Mpls case (oh - and a few also note the carnage caused by those released under "prison sentence reform", Trump's worst move). But AFAIK nobody's bothered to do it in a rigorous, comprehensive, detailed way. Would be nice. Not that information or reality or common sense any longer factor into the "thinking" of many Americans, but still. For the future archaeologists.

will choose a nic - the post-Soviet republic of Belarus was the only independent existence of such a nation in modern times. No wonder you'd never heard of it. They've been lying pretty low under the same president-for-life they've had since the Soviet collapse.
Back at the start, early 90s, some wild stuff there. They'd cut off power and such to our embassy - stuff that simply doesn't happen outside apocalyptic Iran hostage or Afghanistan '79 situations.

Haven't checked/don't remember, but I think the "white" part of Byeliy Rus ("white Russia") comes from some evolving/multiple meaning of a word.
Like "Red Square" actually probably really means "Beautiful Square" ("KRAZ-na-ya" means "red" in contemporary Russian, but an archaic meaning was "beautiful" - which makes sense given the history). It was named long before Karl Marx was born. Not "red" as in "Red Banner Northern Fleet" or something that.

will choose a nic - it was actually, formally and technically, worse than US-Japan in the Pacific. For the aggressors it was "Vernichtungskrieg" - literally war of annihilation. There were plans/studies/ideas on the German side "assuming" 30M people would disappear from territories conquered by the Wehrmacht. Japan was crudely racist and supremacist, and barbaric in much of their military behavior*, but actually didn't have any formal theory or policy of race-based genocide, as Germany did.
* Japan's military barbarism in WWII is even more outrageous, and tragic, when one realizes that pre-WWII, pre-1930s Japan was completely different in this respect - one aspect of the country's ceaseless efforts to demonstrate its modernity and civilized bona fides included model treatment of POWs in 1905 and WWI - the "bushido" ethic and traditions were turned upside down by the barbaric mentality that took over in the 20s and 30s Posted by: rhomboid at May 24, 2021 11:45 PM (OTzUX) 558

Actually Zettai there are plenty of vowels, but no good way to convey palatalization, the "y" sound after many consonants in Russian.
In Russian language classes - at least in the distant before-times - they gave you one night (1) to memorize the Cyrillic alphabet, along with pronunciations. I recall the shock. That was part of the point - it really wasn't hard to do, and giving you one night to do it shocked you, and then you realized the next day that it wasn't a big deal. Lessee - 32 characters in Cyrillic, vs. 26 in our alphabet? I think. Many many Greek letters and more/less identical ones, so it was not that hard.

Cicero, have you been to Volgograd (Stalingrad)?
Not sure what there is to see at Kursk. Many of the epic battles on the eastern front took place in open areas, or partly forested ones, and there's not much to "see" there now connected to the battles. However the artifact/remain/treasure hunting there only got started after the USSR collapsed, and the battles were immense (with minimal efforts at recovery/marking etc.), so THAT is going to be going on for a long time.

I romped around the FSU (former soviet union) back in the 90s for five years or so, working on various business, some Russians drove me around the Crimea to see the sights, I wanted to see where the Charge of the Light Brigade, the Thin Red Line, took place, so they drove me up a big hill where I could down into the Valley of Death, the port of Balaclava off in the distance. The hill we were on was cratered and littered with rusty chunks of shrapnel from WWII.

That's true. Very true. One needs to do a risk vs benefit calculation. But to do that, one needs an accurate number for the risk. That takes time and data. All of that is lacking in these Covid vaccines. The risk is unknown. But for kids and young adults the risk of Covid infection is pretty damn tiny. For some older adult with one or more comorbidities, the risk of Covid is fairly high. A paper I was reading this afternoon pointed out that for a "unprecedented" vaccine, that is a vaccine for something that has never been done before, it takes about 12.5 years to go through the process of arriving at a good estimate for the risks, with about a 2% chance of success. No one has gone through any of that process with this crap they're throwing out there. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at May 25, 2021 12:33 AM (Mzdiz) 611

Take Vioxx. COX-2 specific NSAID. It went through the full process for FDA approval. It passed and went to market, heavily promoted. Five years later, it was taken off the market. Turns out it killed 60K people out of 4 million who took it. That's a 1.5% death rate. Vioxx killed 1.5% of the people who took it regularly. Now, turns out there were indications of this little problem during the trials and the approval process, but they were ignored or not followed up on. There are far more unknowns in these Covid vaccines than there were with Vioxx when it first started the process.

Here's something interesting about coronavirus vaccines. There is a coronavirus that infects cats. In some small number of them, it will result in an almost always fatal syndrome known as FIP, feline infectious peritonitis. They tried for a while to make a vaccine for it. There were many failures, but there is now one that works (safe and effective). It took many trials and tribulations to get it. In once trial, they had a big problem. ADE, antibody disease enhancement. Vaccinated cats become much more sensistive to the virus, and when exposed to the actual virus after vaccination, nearly all cats died from FIP. Whoops. Only guinea pig cats died in that experiment. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at May 25, 2021 01:15 AM (Mzdiz) 635
yop - that sounds great. My only battlefield touring wasn't really such - but months in Leningrad lets you see the mass grave cemetery at Piskorovskiye - and on Nevsky Prospyekt they kept the messages painted on the buildings: "During bombardment this side of the street is safer".
I mentioned the battlefield explorers above - I would never do that, of course. But it's interesting to observe. Red Army "dog tag" equivalents were a little capsule, containing a small piece of paper with essential personal info, that was usually sewn into pants or belts. Some of these battlefield explorers have found some capsules with the document intact enough to search out next of kin. And while I don't know the Red Army MIA totals from WWII, they must have been enormous beyond our imagination. Entire divisions were surrounded and obliterated, and no attempt made to account for them down to the individual soldier level. Posted by: rhomboid at May 25, 2021 01:16 AM (OTzUX) 636

Caesar - yes, "losses" in armored vehicles in WWII European context is a more complicated thing than it seems at first. Any vehicle not behind enemy lines (or in contested area too dangerous for such) was recovered, if possible, and fixed, if possible. Can't recall details right now but I think several historians trying to get the absolute truth about the situation on the German side at Kursk have been stymied by conflicting documentation on recovery and repair.
Of course in classic Russian/Soviet style, the Red Army would bury disabled tanks that had functioning turrets/main guns, creating fixed gun emplacements. These were difficult targets, and served well at Kursk and in other places. Posted by: rhomboid at May 25, 2021 01:20 AM (OTzUX) 638
Now, I'm going to put on a tinfoil hat. Suppose Covid is indeed a Chicom bioweapon. But a two-part bioweapon. We've gone through Phase 1. Suppose Chicoms release a certain bat coronavirus they've been playing with for a while. But one they discovered some unusual property thereof. Phase I. Release it into the world. Cause a panic and widespread adoption of a vaccine. You provide copies of the spike protein of said virus to use for new vaccines. These vaccines target that spike protein, and produce a class of antibodies against it, which is not the same as the antibodies produced by natural infection from the actual virus. You get the West to vaccinate nearly all their population with it. Unknown to the West, these antibodies have a curious property. They will greatly enhance infection and mortality in all recipients, via an ADE effect to another, similar coronavirus you have in the lab. You now release that. You kill 95% of the people who have those special antibodies. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at May 25, 2021 01:22 AM (Mzdiz) 639
Now, do I believe the above is possible? Yep, it is possible. But very unlikely. That would ascribe a level of cunning and evil to the Chicoms beyond imagination. I was reading some stuff about such a scenario. It is possible that something like that could be done, with what is known now. Coronaviruses are bad about this ADE effect. It occurs naturally, BTW. Think of it as sort of a quality control problem of the natural immune system. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at May 25, 2021 01:25 AM (Mzdiz) 640
reading the "news" that the Biden* Adminstration denied in March a permit for an Independence Day fireworks celebration at Mt. Rushmore, Gov Kristi Noem is "suing" the federal government, 17 state attorneys general are signing on etc.
One wonders what the signers of the Declaration of Independence would suggest in this situation. I'm inclined to just say FU and go ahead. Posted by: Common Tater at May 25, 2021 01:26 AM (gJ3Vg) 641

Again, this is tinfoil hat shit, and I don't believe this is anywhere near likely, just something I was reading about and said, "Wow!". Suppose the Phase II virus is normally, of itself, pretty harmless. Wouldn't produce anything of note in those it infected otherwise. But for those who happened to have certain antibodies, produced a crafted spike protein vaccine antibody to another, similar virus, it becomes a deadly, near certain death virus. And, in those with antibodies produced by natural infection to the Phase I virus, not much effect either. It's only the antibodies produced by the particular vaccines to the spike protein of the Phase I virus that enhance the Phase II virus. The Chicom's own "vaccines" to Covid are pretty much crap. They don't provide much protection against the virus. Is it just Chicom incompetence, or suppose the Chicoms don't want the vaccine to be effective. Because an effective vaccine means certain death when exposed to the Phase II virus. Again, this is tin-foil hat shit. But not impossible. Something like this could indeed happen.

"348 "You want to drive an EV, fine. You don't want to pay per mile, fine. How about we charge you say $1,500 per year to register your vehicle."
... Checked out Indiana's fee structure? It's already in there. Posted by: Lump the Chump at May 24, 2021 10:06 PM (eKjCC)" WA actually does charge fees that high already for some areas. Annual registration fees can easily top $1500 for some models of Tesla. Our two lesser vehicles added up to over $900 a year before we were able to GTFO.

Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion of a Poperin Pear at May 25, 2021 01:50 AM (Mzdiz)" It's not really tinfoil given the (lethal) failures on vaccines for SARS-1 and MERS - it's actually a very real threat. The Chinese lab under suspicion in Wuhan has published papers on deliberately adding this behavior to coronaviruses, and they've been saber-rattling their biowarfare efforts for almost 20 years now.

Here's a paper from Sept. 2020 warning about the ADE problem with Covid vaccine efforts:
https://www.nature.com/ articles/s41564-020-00789-5 Now. Fact. All the Covid vaccines target the spike protein of this Covid virus. Not the whole virus, which is what naturally immunity produces. Fact 2: All these vaccines produce a much great proportion of binding to neutralizing antibodies than natural infection does. Indeed, it is possible to detect the difference between natural and vaccine antibodies. Several papers which I've linked to over the past few days demonstrate this. Binding-only antibodies are the culprit with ADE. All the vaccines give you a much higher percentage of the binding vs neutralizing types.

Tambourine Man was likely written about a session guitarist at the NY Columbia studios, Bruce Langhorne, who was well known for carrying around an enormous tambourine at times.
Bruce was a great folk guitarist, he likely played some of the tastier licks on the early albums. Bob was pretty good too, but studio time was really expensive and they needed to get songs done. Session guys could do that. The tell is, when you see a lot of guys play live, they never use those goofy off brand tunings and tricky fingerstyle patterns to play their hits. Too much of a pain in the ass. Posted by: Common Tater at May 25, 2021 02:14 AM (gJ3Vg) 657
