Hopefully its ratings disaster will hurt NBC in the old pocketbook.
The New York Times called the Olympic Games "a joyless spectacle," while other media adjectives include "the low bar of avoiding total disaster." According to the Associated Press, through Tuesday, an average of 12.2 million watched the Olympics in primetime on NBC, cable, or its Peacock streaming service, a 42-percent dip from the 2018 Winter Olympics in Seoul, South Korea. "Only 10 million watched NBC alone, a 47-percent drop from 2018, and through early last week, it was down 57 percent in the critical 25-54 age demographic from the Seoul games," Fox News reported, noting the Super Bowl viewership boost NBC got from airing the Olympics right after the network aired the game.

Seattle PD having trouble hiring new officers Politicians often can’t really afford to be far-sighted. Their constituents want immediate results, not the promise of better days down the road. Yet officials can be far too short-sighted for their own good. Seattle, for example, was another of a handful of cities that cut funding to their police department not all that long ago.

The cargo ship Felicity Ace is aflame from bow to stern with a lithium-ion battery fire that can’t be put out with water alone. The fire has been burning since Wednesday (Feb. 16), as the ship drifts in the Atlantic about 200 miles southwest of Portugal’s Azores Islands. Its 22-person crew abandoned ship and was rescued on Thursday. The ship left Germany on Feb. 10 and headed for the US with about 4,000 Porsches, Bentleys and other luxury cars aboard, and some of those were electric vehicles. It’s not clear if the batteries contributed to the fire starting in the first place—a greasy rag in a lubricant-slicked engine room or a fuel leak are the usual suspects in ship fires—but the batteries are keeping the flames going now. A forensic investigation will take months to determine the cause.
Kamala Harris, the San Francisco Headhunter, is a pleasant individual. Really.
Democrat President Joe Biden’s U.S. Ambassador to Germany, Amy Gutmann, has returned to the United States just days after first reporting for duty during the Munich Security Conference, taking a commercial flight back to the States after Vice President Kamala Harris refused to let her fly home on Air Force Two. Gutmann, who presented her credentials just days ago — Thursday of last week — to begin work as the U.S. Ambassador to Germany, attended meetings at the Munich Security Conference with world leaders and fellow top U.S. officials, including Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken.
Supposedly the Canadians are nice. Their cops, not so much.

Ottawa Mayor Proposes To Sell Confiscated 'Freedom Convoy" Trucks Ottawa police put an end to the "Freedom Convoy" protest in the downtown district that lasted for three weeks. On Friday and Saturday, officers arrested demonstrators and seized their vehicles. Now Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson wants to sell those seized trucks and campers to recoup millions of dollars the city lost during the three weeks of gridlock. On Sunday, Watson told Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) that trucks, campers, and other vehicles seized from the convoy should be sold off, claiming Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's emergency powers could give him authority to do so.

So, we meet again.
We had lovely weather this weekend, wind out of the South pushing temperatures into the 70s.
Naturally, I developed an itchy throat and hacking cough, inducing a slight headache.
Used to, I'd say it was allergies, but now we know I'm going to die from Delta-Omicron 6 -- oh, no, wait, that was the planet in that Star Trek episode.

He promises to make this indictments, and their obviously corrupt nature, the centerpoint of his entire campaign this year - and he stands a good chance of winning office based on this.

there's 10 seconds of some propaganda 'fact" , followed by a snarky dismissive quip, quickly followed by a prompt to laugh and a long pause for the laughter. Lather rinse repeat. Audiences and viewers are being trained to cue 'derisive laughter" for anything that opposes the narrative. It moves along briskly, so there's no time for a viewer to pause and say "wait, what?"

The people have spoken. Canadians prefer totalitarian dictatorships.
I find it odd that Castreau is worse than Putin as far as dictators go, yet there is not a word said about Canada's exit from Western Civilization - now one of the largest Communist countries (as far as land mass) on Earth.
Ukraine is better off in Putin's hands than Canada is in Castreau's.

A cow-worker tried to get me to watch some Colbert clip a few years back. I don't remember what the issue being talking about was, but it was something Colbert had straight up ripped off from FARK or Something Awful or something like that because I had read it days earlier.
I told my cow-worker about it and he was both shocked that Colbert had stolen someone else's "joke/point/rant" and annoyed with me that I was neither amused nor angered...but just bored with it.

350.org, the environmental organization founded by the odious Bill McKibben, noted a few years ago that it was white. Blindingly white. Who would have expected such a thing in an environmental organization founded in Vermont!
So, they decided that they were going to fix this, so they vastly increased their budget, and hired a bunch of "authentic" People of Color - i.e. people with chips on their shoulders. They announced this at a $800,000 "retreat" at a five-star luxury resort in Killarney, Ireland.
Well, none of the senior white people gave up their jobs, of course, so they acquired minority underlings. Then fundraising didn't work out, and they laid a bunch of people off - none of them the senior white people, of course.
The minority underlings screamed that this was racist, since minorities were being laid off. The senior white people said, no, it was mostly white people laid off. Then the minority underlings screamed that this was racist, since they were having to do the work of the laid-off white people.
You love to see it.

On the same line, The Real McCoy 12-year, another Seale product, is one to grab. More $, but very very good, same style. I found it under-priced at a local store, but failed to get another before they sold out. Give it time in the glass for the first 4-5 pours, after that the bottle itself has had air and the flavor just gets better and better.
Two Dominican soleras in the $30 range are Ron Alegro XO (Total has it) and South Bay (first one better). Have eyes on 2 locally available Jamaicans, Worthy Park Single Estate ($) and Monymusk Special Reserve, for my first dip in that pool.

I'm not sure about cats, but with dogs, changing their food too abruptly can make them sick.

This can be done many ways, it doesn't have to include two specific medical professionals, for example. I can give some insight from personal experience 2 years ago, when my 85 year old father suffered a sudden sharp illness and within a few days, lapsed into coma. He had made sure to tell everyone in his family, and had put in writing for us, his earnest wish that if ever reached the point where his life was only being sustained by machine, he wanted the machines turned off. He was very adamant about it. When that actually happened, his directions made it very easy for his family to make the decision, with no guilt. We let him go, as he wished.

Better to have the decision made NOT by doctors. Have the decision be made by your primary care physician, your husband and your best friend, and tje decision has to be unanimous. You can put anything you want into a living will (as long as it isn't illegal). So since you are giving the decision to end your life away, write it the way that will make you most comfortable.

Well vmom, about 47% of Canada supports the truckers. The rest of them were the chowderheads who voted in Trudeau. Those fools may be happy about the crackdowns now, but before summer has come they'll be wishing they could've changed their vote.

Look, the Russians are Trump-voting chuckleheads, jack.
This whole thing reminds me of when I defeated the Soviet Union back in the '80s. Or when I was going out on the Palmer raids. Back then we had a real rough customer, a guy called Vodkaslav the Bearfucker. He was a down low Russian rat, from his knees to his cufflinks. I kicked in the door of the teahouse where he ran his piss-hookers, and there he was, running off pamphlets during an election year.
I said "step away from the press, Johannes Putinberg!" He told me "why don't you meet me behind the banya, and I'll tear you up like one of my bear-bitches." That's when Woodrow Wilson explained to me that you can't take guff from a Slav, and he handed me a shotgun. I went around back of the banya, and my gun-moll Dr. Jill blasted him as soon as we heard him behind the door.
That's how I learned how to bring the trunaliminiprazure to a place like Ukraine. Word as a Brandon.

There was a third election in November, 1932 where the Nazis lost ground. A split between Hitler and Gregor Strasser nearly occurred afterwards. The consensus was that the Nazis had passed their peak. The economy was beginning to revive. Schlichter had plans for a massive public works program. Then Papen threw a wrench in the machinery, Schlichter's government fell and Hitler was appointed.

They were the largest party but their seat total went down in the first elections after Hitler became Chancellor.
Rhomboid the unification of the office happened after von Hindenburg died. There was no way Hitler was going to tolerate the election of a replacement president that might challenge his authority. The president as head of state was technically his superior as Chancellor. So a vote of the people created the office of Fuhrer to which Hitler naturally ascended. I believe this was in late 1934 iirc.

Stick with GE, Whirlpool, Maytag. We went with a local appliance house, GE, but big box store would be fine, too. Last was Maytag in old house. Board went out on it, but it was an easy repair with parts available. Don't know how that pans out with LG or Samsung for parts, and I've heard similar cautions about those brands.

Hugo Dyson (Walter Southgate) was a fellow of Merton College, Oxford. He was also a member of the Inklings, a group which included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. However, he often loudly expressed his displeasure when Tolkien read early versions of his stories. He was recorded at one Inkling meeting as saying "Oh, fuck, not another elf!"

Well, according to some fat chick that used to be on TV, fire doesn't bend steel, so maybe the hulk can be salvaged.... nah, if the ship's fuel goes up it's a total loss, as the ship will eventually sink as the fire consumes the very paint on the hull.

When I asked if they were happy about police trampling old ladies, they denied it happened - because the CBC hasn't shown that. They are just so perfectly happy to destroy the lives and rights of fellow Canadians who don't think like them.

Not that you should ever talk to them again, but if you did you might get them to reflect on the 1905 food protests in Russia. They were peaceful, but the Tsar's horsemen rode them down and brutally crushed them. The next revolution, when it came, made no attempt at all at "peaceful" change.

Also, the kind of oily rags that catch fire spontaneously are the ones soaked in linseed oil, or similar vegetable oils. They oxidize pretty quickly in the presence of air, which is why oil-based paint and varnish hardens. Lubricating oil, which is what one would expect to find in a ship's engine room, does not oxidize readly, since that is not a good property for lube oil to have.

A couple of decades back, my sometimes somewhat pedantic eldest brother (RIP) quite sincerely and emphatically explained to us the particular failure-flaw built into water heaters, as an example of obsolescence by design. I smiled and listened, but it was no revelation to me. I think even Mad Magazine had a good article on that. Ah, the backinthedays.

LG refrigerator - That's what we got in, maybe, 2008. Never had a problem. Also have 28-year-old hot water tank and furnace -- Sears-Kenmore. No "smart" in any of that. Water heater seems probably about to give up.
I think it's safe to say, they don't make 'em like that anymore.

I know for a fact, on the retail car lots, that in the event of total loss of new-car inventories, that the insurers pay full MSRP to the dealerships. By the same metric, I would assume that the insurers would pay the Volkswagen Group the full Invoice & Holdback amounts, plus the shipping costs.
No single Lloyds syndicate will suffer the entire costs, as "risks" such as these are laid-off (sub insured) to a myriad of "re-insurance" companies. We never hear of these giants, but one just acquired American National Insurance Company in Galveston, which is an American Top 50 insurer, doing appx. $100 Billion in annual revenue. The "insurance business" is it's own Deep State. And "insuring" your guns requires models, serial #s, and often, pictures. Congrats, you've just registered your guns!

See my video post above. He's right. Trudy stomping on the peaceful protest without even trying to hear them out is going to leave a mark on the protesters and their supporters. Especially the ones that have lost their trucks and being unemployed have lots of time to review their grievances. The same thing is already happening down here. People wondering about what happened the last time they tried to do it the peaceful way and if they should do something else the next time.

Historical planned obsolescence was to make the newer items more desirable than the older items so you would be enticed to purchase before the old item was worn out.
Modern planned obsolescence is to hide behind " mandated green regulations " to make a more expensive product that barely outlasts the warranty.

I really hope Starfield is great. As for the dilemma, the Series X is the more future proof 4K system if it's in your budget. However, the Series S has been very strong in HD and 2K gaming. I can't think of a game that doesn't run great on S at those lower resolutions. The smaller hard drive is maybe an issue, though. Either one is a solid console.

Same idea as a tens unit. You distract the pain path with some other stimuli. And, often, the pain is the result of some muscular kink somewhere other than your head to start with, and is "referred" pain, so you can disrupt that from another location.

Because it was all so easy for the government villians, I can't get over the nagging feeling that something similar will soon be attempted in the U.S.

I know. I've been conditioned to root for the best possible outcome for the US regardless of who is in the White House and I would sincerely want this to happen as well.
With Biden (and Obama), this simply isn't possible, as we all know. The US won't do well with their agenda, which is intentional on their behalf.

There are essentially, three different levels of competence:
1. Unconscious incompetence
2. Conscious incompetence (I know that I don't understand this, and must be careful)
3. Unconscious competence (The experienced, doing what they know well, without having to give thought to it)
Of the three, number one is by far the most dangerous, and that describes Biden, and his fellow-travelers.

With Trudeau's seizures of bank accounts, trucks, imprisoning of people (e.g., the preacher), it looks to me like Trudeau is finished in politics.
Can Trudeau be ousted with a vote of No Confidence, perhaps on Wednesday?

Lithium will burn violently when it contacts oxygen (and even nitrogen). Gasoline and diesel won't necessarily burn in an accident; it does, but it is less likely to catch fire than a case where the lithium is in contact with air.
So, I would rather drive around in either a gasoline or a diesel-powered vehicle.

I have footage, actual old super 8 movie footage of one of my aunts wielding the spoon on easter at my grandmother's house when we were all kids. Its hysterical. The cousins were all in the spare bedroom, and all you see is the camera walking up to the door, and when the door opens all you see is total mayhem, kids gone wild. About 5 seconds later you see this wooden spoon move into the frame. It was my aunt holding it, but all you see is the spoon. My mother never used the spoon, so it was more of a threat to my cousins/her kids, lol. I have documented proof of the spoon in action.

Well, we have pretty good equipment and skills for extinguishing gasoline fires, and it's actually pretty uncommon for car wrecks to result in fire, Hollywood notwithstanding. And it's really, really rare for gasoline cars to catch fire spontaneously while parked, while there have been a number of instances of that happening with electric cars.

I guess in Canada's system a vote can fail without triggering elections, Trudeau was threatening to call elections and VF was suggesting the other parties didn't have cash on hand to handle that. The implication was that Trudeau thinks his party would come out stronger. I have no idea if that's true, and if it were, Canada's decent into oblivion can't be stopped any more than ours can, but we'll never know.

His government is crammed full of people pushing the really crazy stuff, and it seems a very large number of lefty voters are experiencing erections lasting longer than 4 hours over the emergency powers stuff.
Some of the things they have done already, and what they're promising to continue to do - these are not things you do when you think you will EVER lose power. Because if they let go of the tiger's tail there is a very real chance of getting lined up against a wall and shot. And I think the followers understand that too, hence the drive to crush people.
I don't think the progs are finished there until things get really kinetic and they have a Tiananmen moment. I mean a real one - gunning people down and finishing off the survivors, not just offing a couple of protesters here and there.
