No, when they say 20mm & follow it up with 8 inches of snow, they're talking about 20mm of water falling as 20cm of snow at a 10:1 ratio.
Of course the 10:1 is just a rough estimate, since snow varies from 4:1 to 40:1 depending on temperature & all that.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie,
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Thanks for the links. I haven't read everything about Pegida because confusing. There's one article in today's FAZ about German sentiment that I mean to get back to. Pretty much half of the homepages is about Pediga, immigration, assimilation.
And since it appears that you read Krautish, you might like this response from a friend of mine. I'd sent him a description of a scary conversation I'd had with a Turkish cab driver in Berlin:
"Tja Michael. Wenn Du Deutscher wärest, würdest Du das hier nicht so schreiben dürfen. Denn wer wie Herr Sarrazin (lies das Buch mal) die Integration der "Friedensreligion" in die Deutsche Gesellschaft bezweifelt ist so was von einem Naaaazi. Da wir dann im Namen der political correctness die sogenannte Nazikeule geschwungen. Gruß"

Oh Great. No pretzel logic there. What could go wrong?
Europeans write about freedom of speech and freedom of the press all the time.
They don't mean the same thing there as they do here. For all of our daily wallowing in doom, we're still holding on to better freedoms here.

I'm sorry to hear that. Pooky got stopped by several older gentlemen in the ER last week (he was still in uniform because he was trying to get to our house before the on-base fire department had to use the battering ram on our front door) to thank him profusely for his service. I've never had anyone make anti-military statements around me, probably because my reaction would make AlextheChick look like a fluffy bunny in comparison.

Mine is a moment while in the USAF. Was working in the compound at the unit (MacDill AFB) when a civilian walked by with a ZZ Top beard. The resident Texan started humming La Grange and we all started laughing. The guy probably didn't hear us, I hope. It was really a cool beard.

A fully American ethnic turning around an old racial stereotype of the "mysterious East" and using it to mock the honkys, and doing it for fun. His wife isn't having that, and cockblocks him in front of the customer he's making fun of.
I always thought that was a pretty subversive commercial. In a good way.

Did what she had to in order to be in on the post-show reception, where she would have done, by own admission, whatever she had to.
Squire Cummings arrived dressed in a Mr Rogers cardigan sweater, smoking a pipe. She said she suddenly realized that the golden age was over.

Why, Bill? By your own not-even-a-hypothesis, we'll lose a few miles of coastline. Most people can move inland. Not a huge deal.
In return, we get longer growing seasons and generally better weather (the temperature is like a grade- anything below 70 is failing).
And there's no evidence that man a) is contributing significantly or therefore b) could stop it if we wanted.

It's possible for valves to be stuck closed at high pressure. There's got to be an electrically operated valve on the water line right inside the door. Stuck closed by pressure the solenoid can't pull the valve open. If you could listen close, push the lever instead of the click - splash you get click - and maybe a hum or buzz from the solenoid trying, while it's doing that you open a nearby tap, lowering pressure, the solenoid is now strong enough to open the valve.
Quien sabe if that's a replaceable part.
If you've got a regulator on the house water line at the meter and can lower the internal house pressure to where the fridge works and everything else is ok that'd be the cheap fix.
Same thing happens with a magnetic door bolt that won't open if your pulling on the door when you key it.

His main problem is that he likes to spend a lot of money so he is forced to take a lot of parts that he should have avoided to stay out of bankruptcy court. Here lately he has been working mainly for Disney from what I can see. Those, while not all really good, were at least not all stinkers and some like open range were very good.

I don't recall if it was his major, but he definitely took some courses- he's said so in interviews.

I read an interview with him where he said the same thing but added that the dialogue made it one of his most comfortable characters to play ever. Interesting considering the dialogue.
I wonder if since Whedon has a gift for realistic if very witty dialogue he just points his characters along simple solutions in their actions. kind of like a reverse Larry McMurtry who used to write characters that had complex actions but no descriptions or dialogue.

Also, there's nothing wrong with *not* being a Mal Reynolds-like person.
And, given the fact that a fair number of actors who have worked with Whedon are, indeed, Conservative (at least- Conservative from a Hollywood perspective), there's a good chance that all he was saying was, "No, I'm not the kind of guy who would kick someone else into a jet intake."

Wonder what she has to say about the ATF problem with the federal Judge? Whistleblower sued the ATF and the Judge found for plaintiff but then recently set aside his own verdict because of findings of massive corruption on the part of the DoJ reaching at least as high as Holder's assistant. The DoJ keeps sending petitions under seal and the judge keeps making them public because he's fed up. everyday it is astonishing what the MSM refuse to cover in the Lightworker's administration. Elsewhere whole countries have fallen when their government has acted as corruptly as ours has. It is amazing.

The fact that the valve works OK when the water pressure is reduced (via the faucet) suggests that it is perhaps *not* the solenoid valve. After all, it clearly is receiving power, and the coil is not open. There *might* be some crud build-up in the valve that is weakening it's action, or dirty switch contacts that reduce current, but it clearly *does* work.
I would check the water line pressure first, before doing anything else.

No, he should pass Legislation with some bite... like Military Aid to Israel, and put it in legislation the President won't (or can't) veto.
Not a single US dollar can be spent, without the House saying OK.... but he ceded that power to the President in the last ongoing resolution...
So instead.... he looks tough by inviting Bi Bi... while using NONE of the power given to him by the Constitution, to actually DO anything.

"A Massachusetts woman was arrested during the blinding blizzard that walloped New England after she attacked her neighbor with a snowblower, police said today.
The incident took place as the freezing winds and snow continued to fall at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. Police were called to a home in Boston's upscale suburb of Arlington to find a 60-year-old woman suffering from lacerations to her foot.
Her alleged attacker, Barbara Davis, 61, was arrested on charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon, violating a restraining order, and mayhem. Anderson had a long-standing dispute with the victim, who was not seriously injured, police said.

I think that's most folks. If I had the means and my way I'd move myself and my dad out into the boonies (with decent city access for practical reasons) and just kick back, where dad can finally teach me to fish and I can see if I can write worth a damn.
These urbanites, they're insane and they try to drag everyone down with 'em. F*** 'em all, let 'em burn, then go in after and start over sane.
Or just leave it as picturesque ruins, as subjects for some future AoSHQ's artsy-fartsy open threads.

There is a huge progressive database out there, called Catalist... they are correlating public data to be used for Progressive purposes like voter turnout and targeting for Political ads.
You must GIVE information to get information from them.
Facebook is part of this... your information is being looked out, parsed, and sent into this progressive database.

The conversion - mentioned in the SAME FUCKING SENTENCE - is a 10 to 1 ratio of solid to liquid - hence 10 millimetre mist/rain = 1 centimetre snow
Shoulda read the rest of the sentence before honking off on your metric high dudgeon.

The solution is rather simple - raise taxes, cut benefits, or inflate away.
-----
As a follow-up, I don't think it is that no one is talking about it, it is that politicians do not want to make the tough decisions, because the country does not want to make the tough decision. You either cut benefits for the middle class or raise taxes on them. Neither are very popular. So we do nothing.

He will probably be more subtle about specifics while driving home the point. Barry loses whenever his opponent gets equal time. Something team Romney never figured out. You don't need to attack Obama. You just need to point out everything he willfully ignores.

Mark Levin opened his show last night talking about what he says is the absolute greatest threat America faces internally. He points out that we are getting warnings from the trustees of the social security system, from the trustees of Medicare and Medicaid, from the CBO, and from the GAO, with all of them saying we are headed for the abyss. And nobody is talking about it.

The evil Chimpy McBusHitler was doing that around 2006. Neither the LIberal Republicans or the (D)Marxists paid any attention, then. In fact, PIAPS went out of her way to pontificate on how SS, M and M were fine for the next 40 years.

The first thing they need to go after is the thing that is really bankrupting SS and that is SSDI. Estimates are that 50% of those payouts are either outright fraud or abuse of the system.
payment for "mental health" issues should be halted unless confined to an institution. Payments to non-working yoots should be discontinued outright. That would immediately put SS back in the black.

Well, one of his kids just got arrested today. He was in court for having an unregistered vehicle on his property (Utah). On his way out of court the police arrested him for interfering with an animal control officer. Then he scuffled with the officer and I think he will probably be charged with resisting. He is out of jail now, but has a court date. So out of date tag on a vehicle and a problem with his dog - hauled to court.
Anyone know if Harry Reid got that NV land for his solar energy SNAFU he had in mind?

I think we might be doomed. Enjoy it while you can.

You know what else is the big threat - and people laugh - it is the debt. We may get to the point we cannot even pay the interest. How long can they keep the interest rates low? And then what ill happen when they start to inflate the interest rates in order to pay them off? How high will it have to go? Double digits? Rough sledding ahead my friend.
