As expected:
The House could vote as early as Tuesday on a bill that averts a partial shutdown at the Homeland Security Department and funds the agency through September, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) told GOP lawmakers in a closed-door caucus meeting. The legislation would not include language reversing President Obama's immigration actions, which conservatives have demanded.
"He just caved in there," Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-Kan.), a frequent critic of the House GOP leadership, said of Boehner. "Nothing else we can do. This is his strategy. Clearly, it failed."
Boehner's press conference after the meeting was canceled.

It's a sales job with the company that made the equipment I used on an almost daily basis. Perfect for me since I know everything about them. I'll be living the true Moron lifestyle, this time with an expense account! I will start at the end of the month.

OK, two random things. (I can't see the art).
1. I have been invited to a 'jam session' at the place I get my guitar lessons. I think I need to play with other people to get any better at all, but I'm seriously a bit nervous. Like I'm a little kid.
2. I had an idea for a story. I have had ideas for a bunch of stories but I've never actually gotten one written. For the writers in the bunch, how did you stay motivated?

I still haven't heard back from the job shop that interviewed me a couple of weeks ago. No emails, no phone calls, no nothing. I even emailed them about a position I saw with one of their clients online, still nothing.
If this doesn't pan out, it's clearly time to get on the gubmint teat, as much as I don't want to. I have no choice. It appears that I'm unemployable.

You need to play with other people. That's when the training wheels come off. It also sounds a hell of a lot better with another guitar player/band than it does by yourself. You get to hear what you do in a whole different light.

Sadly, the only thing which seems to change the mind of this government, is the threat of violence (exhibit 1, Moslems, exhibit 2, standoff in Arizona a year or so ago).

Manufacturing from initial product concept to drawing prints to machining to QC inspection to shipping and management. I'm old and have done a lot of stuff over the years.
If I had the money, I'd get a small office and put some 3D printers in it and start looking for things to make. Start small and work my way up from plastic to metal parts.

You will find that the same arguments that were made then are being made today. That is, we (and the Colonists) had more than enough representation. Sure it's indirect, ineffectual and unresponsive but you are represented.
Why, the whole of Parliament (Congress) is there to look after your welfare!
We have less representation at the Federal level than the Colonists of their day.

True. Friend says that Repubs are going to be out in force and that Dems will have a decent number. He's curious and going to be watching the back benches on the Dem side to see what the ratio is.

some 3D printers in it and start looking for things to make. Start small
and work my way up from plastic to metal parts.
Posted by: BackwardsBoy, who did not vote for this sh1t at March 03, 2015 10:55 AM (0HooB)
Have you thought about doing just that, and 3D printing selected parts for classic car collectors? I am thinking specifically of chrome-plated pot metal trim parts. Most of them don't need to be terribly strong, beyond supporting their own weight without warping. But they do need to be smooth and shiny, and dimensionally accurate.
I guess you would need a 3D scanner to view original items, and develop the digits needed to print new ones, and you would have to have access to a plating provider. But the market is there. I think the key would be that you would have to be able to do it efficiently enough to make money on small runs, perhaps even one-offs.

Okay, I was thinking Kirk lived in Chicago. Am I wrong?
If he lives in Chicago (or even one if its suburbs) he absolutely does "have a horse in the race," because the governance of Chicago matters.
If he doesn't, then you're probably right.
But I don't know the facts on the ground. I do know that DrewM (for all he's usually right) *is* very knee-jerk anti-Kirk. Since I've heard that the guy running against Emmanuel is far, far worse, then I'll give Kirk the benefit of the doubt in trying to get the (much) lesser of evils elected.

First off, State had to approve the visit in the first place.
Second, it's been known to the general public for a couple of weeks now.
What they mean is "without the permission" of the SCOAMT. But they can't say that, because they'd expose the real issue here- that the SCOAMT is trying to back-stab Israel.

Considering what a deep blue state it is, we're lucky to not have a Marxist representing them as a Senator.
If we were talking about a Red or even Purple Senator, then yeah, I would be pissed a Republican was throwing their support behind Rahm Emmanuel even if the alternative was worse.
Kirk has actually been pretty decent all things considering, he actually voted against the Amnesty bill in the Senate. That's better than my worthless Senators McCain and Flake from "deep red" Arizona.
