President Snit-For-Brains Will Not Meet With Netanyahu When He Visits
I don't care if he does or he doesn't, but I am impressed once again at how Eighth Grade Mean Girls the "men" running this country are, with their never-ending snits and snubs and peeves and preenings.
They keep employing these Games of social aggression that boys stop playing at age ten. You know why boys stop playing them? Because at that age open violence, with consequences, becomes a legitimate issue. As Conan the Barbarian observed: Barbarians tend to be polite people. The real possibility of having an axe buried in your head over a slight tends to make people act politely and respectfully. But fighting is less common among girls, so they keep playing these Alpha Girl games. So I'm just wondering: Precisely what sort of social environment did these Girlish Men grow up in where a corrective punch in the mouth was apparently never a worry?Comments

Barry didn't have any siblings around when he was growing up (the half-sister was far away in Indonesia), and the kids he hung around with were probably as p*ssified as he was.

Then, when he cops pulled him over he gets out of the car (cops don't like that in my experience) and demands the cops have to show him 3 forms of ID -- his wife makes the same demand -- to prove they are really cops and not fake cops.
They seem convinced there is some law where you can demand 3 forms of ID from a cop if he pulls you over, and otherwise you don't have to do what the cop says.
Never seen that claim before. No idea where it comes from.

The law, which went into effect on January 1, defines cyberbullying and makes harassment on Facebook, Twitter, or via other digital means a violation of the state's school code, even if the bullying happens outside of school hours.
A letter sent out to parents in the Triad Community Unit School District #2, a district located just over the Missouri-Illinois line near St. Louis, that was obtained by Motherboard says that school officials can demand students give them their passwords. The full letter is embedded below.
"If your child has an account on a social networking website, e.g., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, ask.fm, etc., please be aware that State law requires school authorities to notify you that your child may be asked to provide his or her password for these accounts to school officials in certain circumstances," the letter says.

Ace, thank you thank you thank you for putting this into those words.
I have been shouting this from the rooftop - poorly, apparently - for a while. When the very real threat of a physical price is taken off the table, a polite and stable society is impossible. This goes for both the everyday occurrence of boys turning into feral teenage monsters without the influence of a real father as well as politicians and the other masters of the universe thinking they can fcuk over the masses without penalty.

Boy's will be boys no longer holds.
Growing up, I remember one year being told to stand up to bullies, and the next being told to run and tell a teacher.
As others have pointed out, we've removed any physical competition, and for that matter we've removed anysort of masculine heros. The best thing you can do for a young boy is give him a wooden sword and send him off into the woods to slay dragons. Instead we dope them with ritalin and plant them in front of a television.

I posted something similar to this last night on the Deflategate thread, and after watching a local sports show later in the night am more convinced this is what's going on.
So... I heard a former surpervisor of officials (Jim Daopoulos) speaking about this issue (NESN link - http://tinyurl.com/lpn5uyt). He's a big time "League guy" and seems to have a "always protect the shield first mentality". He said that he can't imagine how the balls would have gotten deflated along the sidelines, after the pregame inspection. For all 12 (remember all were low on pressure, 11 were about 2 PSI low) to be modified with all the cameras, NFL security people, League officials, etc, roaming the sidelines, he CAN'T IMAGINE HOW IT'D BE POSSIBLE.
Because it didn't happen that way. It's not subterfuge that happens on the sideline.
Everyone is saying the refs checked the balls before the game. Probably true. But they check like NASCAR monitors speeding down pit road (the speed limit, + or - 5 MPH). The NFL has an offical PSI standard on the books, but they still likely allow the QBs some room for comfort. So the refs check, maybe even with a pressure guage, but if a ball is "close" to the official standard and not, say, closer to half full, then it is ok'd.
Why do I feel this way? Because we've been hearing so many QBs and players and League people saying this is no big deal. That there are a lot of possibly dubious things done to the balls for a game. That it doesn't effect things enough. I believe that. The league must believe that, because even they are willing to let the home teams police the balls after the refs do their "inspection".
If it was so OMG!!! eleventy!!! important to the game integrity they would use one standard PSI for all teams, in all games, and keep the balls under lock and key so every one is assured of equal footing with no possible cheating.
But they don't. They like the QB to be happy. They like high scoring offenses. So if the balls pass the eyeball/squeeze test before the game (and are not squeezable like rolls of Charmin) then they are ok with it. Which is why Aaron Rodgers is comfortable passing an over inflated ball to officials and maybe they fix it, maybe they don't.
Because it's never been a big deal... until (...to be continued...)
Posted by: a Cowboy fan in NE at January 22, 2015 02:07 PM (LKBn6)
Supposedly they felt after picking Brady off twice, that the Pats were underinflating the balls. They brought it to the league in a weekly grievance session the teams are allowed with the league. A behind the scenes kind of thing.
We're hearing chirping that the Ravens felt that some of their balls were messed with during their Playoff game in NE. That they may have alerted the Colts to be aware in their Playoff game against the Pats. They must've told the League right? (John Harbaugh was quick to come out against "deceptive formations")
But yet were only hearing about this now? And the NFL wasn't careful enough to keep a hawkeye on the Pats until half time of the Colts AFC Champ game?
No. It was never a big deal to the NFL because it's what everyone does. They don't have a rigorous inspection standard and everyone had been ok with that.
Until the Colts were tired of getting shellacked by the Pats.
I have a feeling that Bellichick/Brady/whoever on NE, likes to push their use of the inflation/deflation allowance to the limits. The Colts thought that it was a bridge too far in the Nov game, mentioned it to the League, it happened again in the Playoff game, so instead of dealing with it in unoffical League channels, they let it be known to their local sports reporter.
Why? Because it's easier to get action/retribution on an unsympathetic character like Teh Hoodie if it's thought he was cheating again. That's why Harbaugh was quick to take to the mic after his heartbreaking loss, crying about "cheating" and "illegal formations" (knowing they weren't). Toss accusations out there against the Pats with the Spygate history, and your loss looks more dubious. See, you weren't beaten. You were robbed by the fiendish Pats, pushing legality once again. (...continued...)

The accaptable wink and nod inspection process, to help QBs and offense, will quietly be thrown under the bus.
The NFL will have to say the refs do all the right things before the game, as it is in the rule book, to try to maintain credibility (especially because they aren't the most trustworthy bunch already).
They'll say they can't exactly explain how this happened and are saddened that NE might do such a thing. The Pats will take fine/penalty.
Maybe the Pats did push even the acceptable tolerances too far, and a team that was butthurt from being crushed repeatedly wanted to extract their ounce of revenge. The Ravens jump on the bandwagon for the same reason. Because it's easy.
Belichick is an easy Scapegoat. The Pats are an easy target. It's like Dick Cheney and Haliburton. An "abrasive" leader, who isn't media friendly, with a powerful team, thought to be evil/corrupt already, and who will be hated even more. It'll make everyone feel better to pile on NE's "tarnished" reputation.
But this isn't an issue. That's why QBs are admitting how they feel free to doctor the ball. That's why players are saying it doesn't change an outcome. That's why an uber League rump-swab like Jim Daopoulos is saying this is no big deal. It does not affect the integrity of the game, or the balls would have one set PSI for everyone to follow, and the balls would be kept more secure after pregame inspection.
This is about, what is typically, inside the League politcs. It's about teams/coaches with grudges (much like Eric Mangina unleashing Spygate after going to the Jets). It's about trying to explain away horrible blowouts, and close Playoff losses. It's really just kabuki.

If you had told me just a few short years ago that a sitting President
of the United States, running for re-election, would appear on a shock
jock radio show called "The Pimp With A Limp" -- and then be
successfully re-elected -- I would have said, nah, not buying it, too
far a reach, totally implausible. Americans want a certain degree of
gravitas in their leaders. Well, they used to want that. Not any longer.
The pop-culturization of the Presidency is yet another indicator that
21st century America is a failed state. Time to think about what comes
next, because the USA is over.

In fairness, Nixon appeared on "Laugh-In" in the early 70s. But that
on one of the big three networks, when you had a grand total of three
programs to watch, not counting PBS and Dr. Schock's horor theater on
channel 48 (UHF).
Egad, I'm old.
-----------------------
Nixon appeared on Laugh-In as electoral outreach and try to come across as a guy who could take a joke. After all, Laugh-In could hardly be considered Conservative in its sympathies. He didn't go on the show so they could kiss his butt and tell him how awesome he was. That is pretty much the difference between Nixon and Obummer.
Posted by: exdem13 at January 22, 2015 02:18 PM (/mTq0)
I actually saw that! (yes, I'm old). The bit lasted about 5 seconds, and just consisted of a full-screen closeup of Nixon looking into the camera and saying "Sock it to ME?????".
It was funny, because the whole look-into-the-camera-and-say-sock-it-to-me was a running gag, and they just sprang Dick Nixon on us with no warning. Literally the last person you expected to do it, which made it a howl.

Because we've been hearing so many QBs and players and League people saying this is no big deal. That there are a lot of possibly dubious things done to the balls for a game.
I have learned a lot more about football handling the last few days than I ever thought I'd need to know.
Fresh out of the box footballs have some sort of plastic residue on them that QBs hate. The ballboys scruff up the balls to the particular taste of the quarterback. There's a whole subculture of ballboys and QBs that we'll probably learn more about in Brady's 4:00 presser.

Every team is given the balls during the week to break in to their liking. The difference here is the balls were being tampered with after they were signed off on by the refs. That is a clear violation of the rules, and this is on Brady, not Belichick. He got caught doctoring the balls. I equate it with Gaylord Perry. He was famous for doctoring balls, and that didn't keep him out of the Hall of Fame. So let's just start calling him Gaylord Brady.

Are these companies insane?
For a few years now there has been a fad amongst hipster chocolate startups to out hot peppers in their chocolate bars, to be avant garde and ethno-mayan or whatever. But it's almost always a bad idea.
Now this season they've upped the ante and started putting hot pepper flavors in hot chocolate.

There's only one thing you need to know:
Wheelchair ramps.
Put them everywhere.
Wheelchair elevators too.
And every aisle must be extra-super wide to accomodate wheelchairs.
Also, disabled parking spaces in front.
And a dedicated wheelchair "driveway" from the street up the curb to the sidewalk.
And then throw in some more wheelchair ramps for good measure.
Seriously -- from experience, if you do not follow the most stringent ADA guidelines in any new business or structure in the Bay Area, you will be sued into oblivion.

break in to their liking. The difference here is the balls were being
tampered with after they were signed off on by the refs. That is a clear
violation of the rules, and this is on Brady, not Belichick. He got
caught doctoring the balls. I equate it with Gaylord Perry. He was
famous for doctoring balls, and that didn't keep him out of the Hall of
Fame. So let's just start calling him Gaylord Brady.

Absolutely. I understand that. And that is taking the League and refs' (who are not necessarily the most confidence inspiring entities) word saying they were checked according to the rule book.
So... then they were doctored on the sidelines during the first half. With all the cameras and officials and security, etc, by someone. It had to have been observed. Right?
It's hard to imagine someone getting to ALL 12 balls (11 of which were "reportedly" uniformly 2 PSI under). At least without being seen, and being so accurate with 11 of the 12?
It could happen. I put no man/team on a pedestal. I don't trust the League, for many reasons. I don't really trust the refs (who constantly have to justify their worth after bad calls, this would be crushing). I can't say I trust Belichick/the team (past actions).
This just all seems too weird.

Second look at dueling? Pistols at dawn would cut through a lot of the petty bs.
Posted by: Achilles at January 22, 2015 02:17 PM (TpeIH)"
There is an interesting history to that. In Europe, dueling was a privilege of the aristocracy. They carried swords and used them to defend their honor. Failure to defend one's honor resulted in social ostracism. Failure to duel successfully lead to death.
In America we were democratic so that everybody got to duel. As a practical matter, people at the bottom of society did not have to be responded to but middle class people did. Pistols were used because people with jobs did not have the time to stay proficient with swords. Dueling was not really legal anywhere but juries pretty much always voted to acquit if it had been a fairly conducted duel.

White House and State Department officials who were leading U.S. efforts to rein in Israels military campaign in the Gaza Strip were caught off guard last month when they learned that the Israeli military had been quietly securing supplies of ammunition from the Pentagon without their approval.
Since then the Obama administration has tightened its control on arms transfers to Israel. But Israeli and U.S. officials say that the adroit bureaucratic maneuvering made it plain how little influence the White House and State Department have with the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and that both sides know it.
You mean this One?
A US military official said on Thursday that the stockpile, which consists of missiles, armored vehicles and artillery ammunition, was given last week.
The emergency arms depot is located at a classified site inside Israel.
The munitions are part of a program managed by the US military and called War Reserves Stock Allies Israel
They didnt ask for it from there but we gave it to them so we could rotate our stocks, the official said.
Bottom line: The US and Israel Military are very tight. And in the end, no matter what the Fredo Admin postured, no arms were withheld

I can totally believe a similar scenario occurs on the sidelines. Very lax oversight, and the craftier players/teams know how to get around it.
Also, it had been suspected by other teams, namely Baltimore, and this may very well be Harbaugh getting some payback for Bill's "deception" the week before.

Praire dogging here again, but I did a quick calculation. If the volume of the ball is taken as a constant (because I have no idea how much the ball distends/contracts with pressure), then the internal pressure in a ball filled to 1 atm (chosen for simplicity, equivalent to 14 psi) at room temperature (25 C) would decrease about 8%, or roughly 1 psi, at equilibrium at 0 C (i.e., freezing).This would explain why the effect was more apparent in the second half, because the balls presumably would have equilibrated to ambient temperature by then.
I have no dog in this fight, and would go Islamic on the Patriots if they were caught cheating, but after doing this calculation another scenario can be imagined.

doing this calculation another scenario can be imagined.

Supposedly... they used the set of 12 back up balls for the 2nd half, and they were really, REALLY, kept at the right specs.
Again. I think this is something that is normally a behind the scenes League issue, with a typically lax set of PSI/football prep guidelines. And maybe the Pats even took those loose boundaries and pushed them further too much for the Colts.
Look who's saying, meh, no biggie -- ther QBs, players, officials. Look who's NOW making the noise -- teams/coaches with an axe to grind. Not after the Colts Nov. loss. Not after the Ravens playoff loss. When they suspected foul play.
If the NFL new and did nothing after Nov. **and not monitoring the Pats very closely** it's because it was tacit approval, allowance for the practice and really is no biggie.

Ha! I actually went to an event last night where Mitt, our state governor, and the heads of a financial firm all spoke about economic and finance. It was good info, and while interesting to see Mitt speak live just made me more mad he did not fight harder to be president. Did a mini SOTU critique during the QA after his remarks and I was thinking THAT COULD HAVE BEEN YOU! THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN YOU! Gah.
Also he repeated his line about how LBJ's heart was in the right place on the war on poverty, he was just wrong. And talked about how he believes in manmade climate change. Oh Mitt... But most of it, especially the economic stuff, was conservative red meat.

If Obama's going to "steamroll" Democrats for snipping at him too, then it appears he thinks they are exactly like him. He does not consider Republicans as human beings so he never considers 'dealing' with them or treating with them. He apparently thinks the democrats he's going after would never decide to backdoor any kind of agreement with Republicans.
If he overdoes it, or if we had some eloquent guys, it'd be a snap to backdoor agree to impeachment and conviction.
Let's pray he pisses off enough career political monsters over some pissant insult to a lame duck asshole.

Fair enough.
Not sure how the subject comes up here, but it is Twitter.
Ace, God love him, doesn't seem to have the "don't go down the rabbit hole" gene. For better or worse. A knock down drag out debate over abortion is superfluous to his point about the GOP lying, but if someone took it there, Ace will reply in kind.

I've beat this drum for years. 50 years ago Todd Palin would have broken Bill Maher's jaw and there wouldn't have been word one said about it. In a just world, one of Chris Kyle's buddies would tear Michael Moore apart and we could all have a good laugh, but we live in a world run by men without chests.

I don't think there's really been any real investigation into whether NE cheated or not. If they were serious, it would have been done without the intervention of the press.
Investigate and if NE cheated, then throw them out of the super bowl and whatever other sanctions against them. Until that happens, I will look at this as just hype for the super bowl.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I have access to a company car. It's not mine, but I get to drive it when I need to.
There's a guy who maintains the vehicle. Oil changes, checking tire pressure, other routine maintenance.
Honestly, when the "Your tires are low" warning comes on, I ignore it. Not because I don't care, because I do not wish to drive an unsafe vehicle, but because the warning comes on ALL THE TIME. Every time the wind blows, it says the tires are low.
And there's a guy who takes care of that. So why should I care?
Exact same thing here. Brady throws the balls, but there's a guy who takes care of the air pressure. That's his job.

Not a Tony Romo booster by a long shot, but... Romo has consistently had better stats than Chelseli. Eli got to, and won 2 SB's because he had great catch (Tyree) and horrible drop (Welker) put a ring on his finger. Other than that... he's Jay Cutler.

Hawkins, it looks like he is going on a tear on the verbal distinctions our society uses in speaking of both born and unborn children. I think to justify his pro choice position? Yeah, might be good to stay away from that at the moment. Hopefully he'll get back here soon.
My mom miscarried in our front hallway when was I was a tweenager, surprise pregnancy, and I had to help take her to the bathroom, strip off her clothes, and wash off the blood in the tub. I thought she was dying, her eyes went completely dead for a while. Was one of the most frightening moments of my life.
No, it's not losing a baby, but it's no walk in the park either. I don't think Ace is trying to diminish the trauma of miscarriages, and the devestation that families feel, but I think the more nuanced point he is trying to make is getting lost in the translation that takes place in limiting your thoughts to 140 characters. The blessing and curse of Twitter.

Well, it has happened figuratively - by Bryan Sikes, green beret sniper:
"It's typical of 'men' like you to criticize the intestinal fortitude,
focus, discipline and patriotism of a sniper. It must stem from an
inferiority complex or something. But hey, it's okay cupcake. We snipers
are thick skinned and the efforts of world class turds such as yourself
to portray us in a negative light only makes us laugh. If you and I
were in the same room, I'd throw you a smile and gently pat you on the
head knowing you're nothing more than a mouth breathing, Crisco sweating
waste of space not even worthy of being in the presence of a sniper.
It's almost funny how people like you preach things like 'acceptance'
and 'not passing judgement' or 'labeling people', but then are the first
to do so when a person is in some way dissimilar from you."

Eli is like an idiot savant when it comes to throwing footballs. Give him a play, teach him the routes the receivers will run, and he can deliver the ball there.
What he can't do is adjust to a receiver who adjusts his routes, or handle any sort of situation where he must scramble and find an open man.
He throws so many interceptions, and passes that are nowhere near a receiver precisely because that pea brain of his cannot comprehend that the play might NOT unfold the way it was drawn up in the training room.
But other than that, yeah. I'd take Cutler over Eli.

On the topic at hand....not sure how much punches in the mouth are thrown around any more in school. I had one fight I can remember and it was in the 5th grade. And it lasted about 10 seconds before it was broken up. And I was warned as was the other kid that if we did this again we'd be suspended.
In high school, I really don't remember seeing any fights. I assume they must have happened, I just never saw any.
It was funny because all the shit I saw in high school movies about the cool football players beating up the nerds didn't exist in my high school. The nerds were friends with the football players. Hell the nerds WERE the football players in many cases, ie the football players were smart guys with good grades who were taller and bigger than the smart guys who got good grades and were small/short. Nobody really gave a fuck either way.
I guess Obama's peeps went to the same type of schools.

Of course he does. He has said so himself, he likes the ball a bit under-inflated. Just like Aaron Rogers, who has told the world he likes them as hard as can be. And Brad Johnson, who paid a guy to scuff up the balls he used in the Super Bowl.
What Brady did NOT do though, is tell the ball boy he wants the balls deflated below the league standard, and neither did Bellycheck.

The uncertainty of whether we can have a successful one.
There are health issues on my wife's side of the family that could sink the whole project. And with those in mind, my wife has been wary of approaching trying it again.
I have done my best to convince her that few things are ever set in stone, and pointed out cases when we see or hear of them of other miscarried couples succeeding.
Nevertheless, the fear is there, and I have to be delicate about pushing too hard, because I understand fully the fear of being hurt again by losing another.
So, it's not losing the first few in and of itself that lingers. It's the awful thought that this is Nature's final intent.

Rush today said that in the Belichek press conf it almost sounded like he was putting the blame on Brady, which coaches never ever do for the sake of team morale, but that he thinks this is part of a longer con by both Brady and Belichek as far as playing the media game. Any thoughts on that?

Actually no.
What I am a fan of though, is watching Patriot haters lose their marbles. Their tears of rage are like nectar of the gods to me.

Don't necessarily attribute that to good intentions, when it could just be because he is a fat ass

Not exactly. Called for immigration action - sort of the same thing.

What did I say then, I honestly don't remember.
Full disclosure though: I find college football boring and unwatchable. I mean, I really tried this year, and after watching that chucker on Ohio State beat Alabama, I remembered why I hate it so much.
Didn't watch a single minute of the national championship game.

When face to face it's hilarious to see how a true man eyes Barry.
Netanyahu is a badass. A bona fide bad ass. He has killed, he has been in combat, he has lost family and friends.
He has "seen the elephant," in all of its detail.
Barry and his Choom Gang pals have most certainly not... and the difference is staggering.

That's when Menendez stood up to challenge the President, telling Obama he took "personal offense" to his assertions, the New York Times reported, arguing that he has worked to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions for many years and was not motivated by political considerations.

Because at that age open violence, with consequences, becomes a legitimate recourse.

Also, especially among boys but sometimes men, you can have a knock-down, drag out fight, complete with cussing. And after exchanging such pleasantries and coming to understand the issues in depth, they'll find themselves drinking beers like nothing had ever happened. Because they'd worked thru the problem at hand, instead of letting it fester.

After my second miscarriage, in which I almost needed a blood transfusion, my doctor advised that another miscarriage could result in my death. I was devastated. I turned everything over to God. I really had no choice! Within a year I was pregnant again, but was afraid the whole pregnancy. I now have 4 children and I owe them all to God. Don't give up hope and don't worry. You are not in charge anyway, but God is.

_____________________________________________________Not necessarily only single mothers. When I was a young mother I believed a lot of the crap that various literature/studies said was a good idea as far as helping my 4th grade son deal with bullies at school, I didn't want him to get in trouble for fighting. My husband went along with me, although he said that wasn't how boys resolved things on the playground when he was little. One particular boy who was bigger than my boy had been teasing him relentlessly and tp'ing our house etc., etc. One day my son had had enough and despite my encouraging him to work it out nonviolently kneed the bully in the groin in the hall at school. That kid never bothered my son again and my son didn't get in trouble at school. My husband was right, I was surprised and realized that parental help literature is no substitute for common sense and real life experience.

An environment where nothing bad could ever happen to Mommy's Little Boy and where he was never wrong - so if someone punched Mommy's Little Boy in the mouth Daddy (or Big Brother, if he had one) wouldn't teach him how to throw a right cross, Mommy would call a lawyer and sue the school.
