Building Explosion in NYC
What happened here is confused: First Shep Smith said it was a collapse which probably ruptured a gas line, now he has on a guy who says the event began with a first-floor explosion.
They don't know yet if people are trapped in the building. The building is at 125 2nd Avenue, near 7th Street.dayum RT @nypmetro: From the scene of the 2nd Ave building collapse http://t.co/Yxt7xHbWL3 pic.twitter.com/1qy3uX9lLj

But there was silver lining for him and the chance for a new start when he was offered a new job as a CFO in Portland a few months later.
'I felt like, "yeah, I got it. I am back'',' he said.
However, nearly two weeks later, he was fired once again after his boss realized he was the man from the video.
Oh, that just made me smile....

Eh they always existed. They were just more of a product of the group of girls where the one friend always brought a camera everywhere.

Self-portraits have a long and dignified tradition in art.
Selfies are just stupid.
(And I hate when people call every picture of themself a "selfie"--no, your annual school portrait is not a "selfie." The vacation snap your mom took of you at the beach is not a "selfie." Your wedding party picture is not a "selfie." Sweet Bast, learn some cfuking vocabulary words and get off my lawn.)

Who brought the marshmallows and roasting sticks?
At which point I repeat one of my sub-rants from my omnibus Big Corn is Evil rant.
I was raised to understand that roasting marshmallows is an art. You turn them on the stick at just the right place to make the skin golden and crispy. You pull off that skin, eat its lusciousness, and hold the remaining part of the marshmallow by the fire.
If done correctly you could get 7 or 8 skins from a marshmallow, then eat the gooey gob that remained.
I can not teach my children this art because marshmallows are now made of corn syrup, not sugar, and you're lucky to get 2 skins off of one.

Saw this over at Gates of Vienna.
Obama is snubbing the new head of NATO, Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg. Apparently Stoltenberg, the former Prime Minister of Norway, has met with nearly every other NATO leader, and for a while now his team has been attempting to set something up with the White House. They've received no response. Stoltenberg is now in Washington, after meeting with Prime Minister Harper of Canada. But Obama, who is currently in Washington himself, evidently has more important things to do.

Mr. Walker's "no amnesty" position, first articulated earlier this year, was a change from his prior decadelong support for a pathway to citizenship. He has explained in public that his shift to a more restrictive view came after consulting with border-state governors and hearing from people opposed to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.
But during the March 13 private dinner, organized by New Hampshire Republican Party Chairwoman Jennifer Horn at the Copper Door Restaurant in Bedford, N.H., Mr. Walker said undocumented immigrants shouldn't be deported, and he mocked 2012 GOP nominee Mitt Romney's suggestion that they would "self-deport," according to people who were there.

"He said no to citizenship now, but later they could get it," said Bill Greiner, an owner of the Copper Door. Ken Merrifield, mayor of Franklin, N.H., who also attended, said Mr. Walker proposed that illegal immigrants should
"get to the back of the line for citizenship" but not be deported.
Mr. Walker's statements about citizenship were at odds with what he told reporters the next day in Concord, N.H., where he defended his position opposing a path to citizenship.

At a 2002 Mexican Independence Day event in Milwaukee, Wis., Mr. Walker, then the county executive, signed a resolution that praised the economic and civic contributions of undocumented immigrants and called for "a new program similar to the Federal amnesty program enacted by Congress in 1986."
In 2006, Mr. Walker signed another county resolution backing the immigration proposal written by Sens. John McCain (R., Ariz.) and Edward Kennedy (D., Mass.) that would have granted legal status to many illegal immigrants.
As late as 2013, Mr. Walker told Politico he backed a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants and told the Wausau Daily Herald more border security wasn't necessary.

I support a path to citizenship for illegals
1. Close the borders 2. Restrict all employment and benefits to illegals. 3. Arrest and Deport. 4. You must go back to your home country to apply for re-entry. Get in line. 5. Have a job waiting for you here, if employment is below 3%.

Mr. Walker has shifted his stances on other aspects of immigration law. In May 2010, after Arizona lawmakers passed tough restrictions on illegal immigrants, Mr. Walker told the Associated Press he had "serious concerns" about the law because it "impedes on the inherent right of the federal government to do its job and to protect our borders, and also because in America we don't want our citizens getting pulled over because of how they look."
Hours later, Mr. Walker, then in a Republican primary for governor, reversed himself. "I too would sign the Arizona immigration bill," he said, after conservatives inundated his Facebook page to criticize his first position.

There are lots of them.

Two guys from the neighborhood started pounding on doors trying to wake people up and get them out to safety, while another guy and I found a hose and started spraying down the fire before it could spread.
By the time the fire department arrived and took over, there were dozens of people on the street taking pictures of themselves "at the big fire".

So, today we found out that Obama leaked secret info about Israel, that
he is giving away the store to Iran and that he has refused to meet with
the head of NATO. I haven't heard a peep of outrage from any
politician on our side. Has anyone else? I hope they're all meeting
among themselves figuring out how to present a united front against the
President--but I doubt it. If they don't want to impeach I bet we have
grounds for a 25th amendment removal (mental health).

Our politicians have repeatedly asked politely (with varying degrees of nice) for Obummer to act with them, or at least tell them what he was going to do before he did it. But Mister "I Won" hasn't even bothered to do that once. I would say the GOP has washed its hands of attempts at bipartisanship and is looking forward to 2017.

I wish Ace would take a bit of time to study Christian apologetics so that he'd realize what it is he's arguing against.
Posted by: Cornelius Van Til at March 26, 2015 05:28 PM (xkSSa)
I've been here a long time. Ace has no idea about theology, patristics, soteriology, ecclesiology, apologetics, or anything else even remotely related to religion. He's not interested, and that's fine. It's his blog, his point of view and he's free to have it. Not a problem
I just want him to stop pretending he knows what he's talking about there and to stop arguing like a liberal about religion and then pretend he's doing no such thing.

We've been here before. The LSM covers for Obummer no matter what, the Democrat congressional leadership is neutered or in agreement with Obummer, he the Chicago machine currently control Democrat patronage, and the replacement is Crazy Uncle Joe. We are blocked on all approaches, barring an outright coup, and he's been busy retiring warhorses for Donkeys in the Pentagon. Might as well ride the storm out until Election Day pray he doesn't get us all blown to Hell until then.
If you don't like it, well 3 million stubborn-ass Republicans sat home on election day of 2012 knowing full well what would come if Obummer got a second term. I know what all the Morons here thought of Romney, but on his darkest day Romney would never have hurt our Republic with such cheerful abandon as Obummer. We all chose collectively to watch the fire burn and spread instead of at least putting up a fire break.

Which, true or not, is why a lot of the Christian tradition pinpoints pride as the devil's chief failing. (and you can interpret the part in Isaiah to that end, though it's not certain it's aimed that way unless you apply a double-interpretation, which does apply for some Scripture)

I've only read the first book, and it nearly convinced me to never go solo into the wilderness, or at least never turn my brain off while I'm there. Pallides, who has published two great books on Bigfoot California Indian lore, has deliberately avoided "disappearance = Bigfoot" conclusions. However, a few of them do seem like wrong day-wrong place-wrong 'Squatch incidents. I can still see some granola-swilling hiker seeing a Sasquatch giving him the stink-eye from behind a tree and thinking "Oh, like wow, dude, I can get a selfie and totally prove I was with Bigfoot. Like, he's a totally gnarly furry forest man." And then he becomes a 'missing 411' category case....

There was once a time when retired Mossad men were famous for not being famous. Rigorous in their self-imposed silence and obscurity.
Now, you see former Mossad head Meir Dagan openly voicing his personal opinions about the Iranian nuclear program, and as openly criticizing Netanyahu's foreign policy.
