"There's something very screwy going on there in Waco"
Yeah they made some very dodgy comments about the ballistic reports. Some of the killed had been shot by cops, but they wouldn't confirm if they had been killed by cops or...if they had been shot by anyone else. It looks like the cops killed some people who weren't involved in the "shootout". But they're not saying that. Posted by: Lauren at January 28, 2016 11:02 AM (Z/8dZ) 34

If you saw The Revenant, go to Wiki's page for the Arikara people, the tribe portrayed in the film, called "Ree" by the whites.
Look at the photos on the Wiki page, then ask yourself, why do the Ree in the movie look like dirty white guys? The Arikara lived in small villages along the upper Missouri, further upstream from where the Mandan were. Look at the Missouri using Google Earth, between the South Dakota line and upwards to Bismarck. That's Ree country. Go way west from there to the Montana line, many days ride by horseback. See any mountains? The Revenant could have been better done if actors portraying Ree indians were better chosen and made up to look authentic. And the landscapes did not need to include 13,000-foot ridgetops. The landscapes of the upper Missouri are beautiful enough.

RoyalOil @26..
That whole mess deserves a lot more coverage than it's received. A generation still talks of Kent State... Good god, what went down in Waco and the cover-up and injustice is so awful. I hope the defense prevails AND the truth comes out.. I'm not holding my breath, but I'd like to think the FBI or Texas Rangers could be trusted... but a lot of folks have a lot to cover up.

I lived in St. Louis at the time and remember that case.

It doesn't say whether it was methanol (which is at least AN alcohol) or 100+ Octane race gas (which is gasoline).
Posted by: DaveA at January 28, 2016 11:17 AM (DL2i+) There's something seriously screwy there. Either one is toxic, and fatally so. Even as a pre-teen, I knew that methanol was deadly. It cam in a pint can labeled "methyl hydrate" and I used it to fuel my toy steam engine. But I would never have dreamed of drinking it, because the can had a skull and crossbones on it. If these kids are wilfully drinking a known poison, then it's Darwin at work. Too bad, so sad. But if third parties are mixing methanol with Mountain Dew, and peddling it as "legitimate" moonshine, then it's murder. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at January 28, 2016 11:51 AM (Z8fuk) 207

This painting does remind me of something which, counterintuitively, depresses me.
I'll talk about it again on the Sunday book thread, because that's where it came up. Someone recommended a 1906 book on Camping and Woodcraft by Horace Kephart. I'm reading it for old school woodcraft and a sense of what it was like to keep yourself alive in the wild. What depresses me is that I can't do it. I don't mean I don't have the woodsmanship skills, I mean that I live in the Northeast and there is nowhere that I can just disappear into the woods with a gun and fishing tackle and a backpack or canoe's worth of survival gear. I've done what wilderness canoe camping can be done, but you still have to reserve campsites well in advance. Forget bringing a .22 and trying to live off squirrels and grouse.

Which is why you see the massive cramming of colonistas and the increased BLM agitating. They may be evil but they have the strategy down pat. The BLM thing may not go anywhere, but the colonistas can yield dividends. That's why that issue has to be a dealkiller if the answer isn't "they go home".

Joined: Fri Oct 16, 2009 7:05 am Posts: 2020 Location: Bastard in a Basket. So a buddy of mine, a Marine, was bitching to me about women in combat, and we got on the subject of Marine Corps Boot Camp. When he went through Boot Camp, he never saw any females. However, now there are lots of females and his question was "I wonder what female recruits sing, when they call their rifle a gun?" So we have been trying to come up with A name for female genitalia that would rhyme in "this is my rifle this is my (blank), this is for fighting this is for (blank)". However, both of us have been drawing a blank. I've tried Poon, snatch, pussy, Twat, and for the life of me I can't think of something that rhymes. Fellas can y'all help a brother out?

Years ago, there was a horrible murder in Pasadena, CA. A young mother ran out to the mall to buy a bab shower gift. As she was going down the escalator heading for her car, two 18 yr old thugs going up the escalator saw her and followed her. They kidnapped her and took her to JPL. They robbed, raped, and shot her dead. Luckily, a JPL security guard found her body and an apb was sent out on her car. Even more luck when a reserve officer went to pick up a friend to drive to a mace class at 8 am. While he was waiting for his friend to come out, he sees the car drive pass him and pull into a driveway. He then watches the guy change the license plates. They found her property in his house. I remember in court his mother looked like she 28. Anyway, he got the death penalty and has been sitting on death row for 25 years.

" but there seems to be a straight out push to turn the state blue. Am I wrong?"
You're not wrong, but they're failing miserably and will continue to fail because they fundamentally misunderstand Texas. Wendy Davis is a great example. She was a terrible, terrible candidate for statewide office in Texas. She lost the Rio Grande Valley primary to some random unknown candidate because, shockingly, people in the Valley weren't onboard with Abortion Barbie. They also continue to push too hard on the SJW crap (see: Houston) and are pissing off their liberal coalition (read: minorities) Meanwhile, the growth in the state is mainly in the suburbs, and those are staying red as can be. They're trying, but failing. We need more conservative reinforcements though. Posted by: Lauren at January 28, 2016 12:11 PM (Z/8dZ) 288

I have read that the Indy 500 is going to be using E85 as fuel in all cars. It makes a good racing fuel because it has an effective octane rating of 110 or greater which allows very high compression ratios in the engines for a very favourable power to weight factor.
However, while E85 is 85% ethanol, the other 15% is gasoline and it is a very bad idea to drink it. Posted by: obnoxious ahole at January 28, 2016 12:13 PM (qf1sn) 293

I know its not the book thread, but I am reading this wonderful book called, "Soliloquy Prayer" (Unfolding Our Hearts to God) by a priest-Dennis . Billy. I had started it before, but put it down. Each chapter has a psalm, a meditation by various saints or other RC religious figures , some reflection questions and an exercise. When you work it through it's like going on a mini spiritual retreat. The prayers are very honest:
Here's a bit from the excellent chapter called, "Facing The Darkness" about suffering in our lives: "Come to me. Lord. Help me to cast out the surrounding darkness. Help me to find even the smallest sign of your presence in the circumstances of my life. t Here is where I must find you: not in the distant heavens, not in the depth of the oceans, not in distant lands, or atop tall mountains, but here where I live, in this place and time, now, where I live and am experiencing difficulty., Here, Lord, is where I seek you. Come to me and help me to renew my faith and hope in you. Help me to cling to you with passion, to proclaim you with zeal, to acclaim you with eloquence, not only in times of prosperity, but in times of hardship.

A Secret Service agent is a fellow parishioner of mine. I found his badge lying in the pew when I was ushering one Sunday. I really want to ask him about what he sees from our "leadership."

Got into a discussion on Twitter about Nazis and socialism. Its pretty hilarious, because it follows the usual leftist argument:
Conservative: "true statement" Leftist: BS you lying liar that's trash! C: Proof L: your proof is unacceptable because I don't like the source! C: more proof L: Here's a quote that says something different, your proof is meaningless! etc But what really intrigues me is how they're defining socialism. Most of them don't even understand what the term means. For some, its just a stand in for "all good things I support," for others its an exact synonym for "Communism" and for another group it means "the opposite of nationalism." That last one is particularly hilarious because it is their entire argument: Nazis couldn't be socialists, because they're nationalist. But its amazing to me the basic ignorance of their own terms and ideas. Its one thing to not understand economics in general, but to not even comprehend what you are trying to argue for and impose is just breathtaking. It would be like people who call themselves Christians angry and shocked when you point out that means believing in Jesus Christ. Posted by: Carlos Mencia at January 28, 2016 12:32 PM (39g3+) 369

taken another strange turn--with the state asking for a delay in the trial and the defense opposing such. There's something very screwy going on there in Waco.

Although gasoline has more energy content than an equal volume of ethanol, gasoline burns much hotter, wasting much of that energy as wast heat that requires a large cooling system to get rid of. Gasoline also has a tendency to detonate during the compression stroke if the octane rating is not high enough. With an octane rating like you get with E85, you can build an engine with a compression ratio you would ordinarily only find on a diesel engine. It is the high compression ratio that makes diesel engines so powerful for their size and so efficient in their fuel consumption.
