UC President: It's Freedom of Speech, Not Freedom from Speech
As president of the University of California system, I write to show how far we have moved from freedom of speech on campuses to freedom from speech. If it hurts, if it’s controversial, if it articulates an extreme point of view, then speech has become the new bête noire of the academy. Speakers are disinvited, faculty are vilified, and administrators like me are constantly asked to intervene. The goal of our university education today should be to prepare students who are thoughtful, well-informed, and resilient. The world needs more critical, creative thinkers, and American higher education does a better job of producing them than any other higher education system in the world. We seek to make the world a better place for the next generation, and teaching the values and responsibilities of free speech is inextricably linked with this goal.I would take this a lot more seriously if it weren't coming from Janet Napolitano, and if she didn't hedge later on, and if she didn't preside over the biggest catastrophe in higher education in the entire world: the once great University of California system. But at least she is mouthing the correct words.

To whom it may concern, Cara is tardy this morning as a result of a condition known as teenage-ism. Adolescents across our great nation are afflicted, and there is no known cure. Symptoms are multitudinous, but this particular morning, she suffered from an inability to remove herself from her bed, and also felt the need to talk back to her birth-giver. She seems to be recovering her senses after watching her cell phone fly out the car window. Please call me if there is another flare-up. Thank you, Nicole PoppicMany of us have had to deal with teenageritis, and probably have some good war stories, and appropriately disruptive home remedies. Have at it! My favorite is taking the bedroom door off its hinges.
Because Grace Slick sure does have a nice voice. Remember....Feed Your Head!
The new reality of the academy is one that is antithetical to most of the founding principles of our country. That any of these people have influence over our youth is disgusting enough, but the funny (in a sad, sad sort of way) part is that they are the willing fools who will be first against the wall when their masters take power.
Here's an interesting video labelled, perhaps incorrectly, The Biggest Air Refueling Mishaps Caught On Camera. Nothing awful, but it shows rather well how difficult midair refueling must be. And as a bonus there are some really cool planes!
When ISIS straps on their bombs, they don't say, "Hey, let the Black person walk by let the Hispanic walk by, and then blow the White guy up." No, they say "I'm going to blow up Americans." They see us as Americans, and the sooner we see each other that way the better.
Oh my! What a horrible, racist, Uncle Tom traiter Brunell Donald-Kyei is!
Yes, it's amusing, but part of me wants to continue the theme of mocking stupidity in the interest of possibly saving our society from the ignorance and intellectual laziness that seems to be getting worse and worse. And get off my lawn!
Because your nice new shoes deserve a night out, even if it's raining.

Sales. There you are, hawking the same company wares you were selling so successfully last year, but for some reason, you just can't close. And, it's not the product, because your coworkers, the bastards, are making their quotas just fine. But, the people you are trying to sell to will talk to you and hear your spiel, but when it come time to sign on the dotted line, forget about it.

Agreed, but as we have discussed in other venues, eventually STEM will become diluted (I think it's already happening), and a once great university will be driven by those grievance studies departments.

Yes, she does. And she was nice to look at as well, back in the day. I like this video better. Same song, but it has Grace lip syncing along with the band, who are pretending to play their instruments. In the beginning of the video, Grace looks like she is struggling to keep a straight face. Is someone off camera trying to crack her up, or did she just think of something funny?

Christ said at one time, "Suffer it to be so-Allow it to be so." (Matthew 3:15) So God suffers wickedness in the world He does not approve. He suffers a person to steal, to lie, and to defraud his fellow human beings, but God does not want the person to do this., It is not of God's permission, but his sufferance. We come into contact with these sufferancse of God's providence every day, and we cannot understand them because they are full of evil and iniquity and we get into trouble over them. God has permitted them because he can make them work out for your good. If he could not do that, he would restrain them. This is the rock upon which we may stand. He suffers nothing to come but that which will turn to our account and He will improve us if we take it rightly as from Him. Let the devil rage; let sinners go abroad in the world; let evil forces work their fiendish designs! Our God is at the helm, and he will guard the character of Hid children and bring them forth victorious and better for the discipline that has come to them. It is not lost ground. It is all gain to the Christian, because we trust in the living God. Christ did all the suffering that was necessary for our redemption, but He did not do all the suffering that is necessary for our sanctification, for our development. We must do that ourselves.

I'm slowly converting to LEDs as CFLs die and the supply on hand dwindles. There were a lot of extreme markdowns at supermarkets for some unknown reason and I built a good supply for cheap.
The biggest problem is the bathroom fixture that takes three GU-24 bulbs. GU is a socket design that replaces the Edison screw in design that has been around since the 1870s. It's a lot safer but still rare in most places. I bought three GU-24 LEDs from Home Depot and one of them went dead within a week. I got my money back on that one but found they no longer stocked the product (I had to order online for in-store pickup for the initial lot) at all. Further searching has shown GU-24 LEDs are surprisingly hard to find and I'm reluctant to order from a place that has no local brick and mortar presence for easy returns after the experience I've already had. OTOH, the remaining CFL in the fixture died last week, and I really don't want to buy another CFL.

They were in the front and so were their lyrics.
The energy and quality of lyrics for their cause has never been expressed, at least popularly, by a conservative musical group. "Volunteers for America" (what a title, what a rallying song), "3/5 of a Mile in 10 seconds", "We should be together" are begging to be re-lyriced and co-opted.

Agree. Funny thing, though -- the light bulb ban wasn't mostly environmental types. It was corps like GE who couldn't make a profit on commodity Edison bulbs and wanted something more lucrative.
I do like the LEDs I got; the early ones were not so good, but these new ones, from a company that I think went out of business, are great, if the fixture will take them (they're too big for some). But I bought a more power-hungry computer to compensate.

Cree makes some great 3-way LED bulbs. I've had them in every 3-way lamp in the house for more than a year.
The warm color bulbs look really nice.
I bought them from Amazon using the AOSHQ store to flip the Ewok a few bucks.

Then I bought some dimmable LEDs for a ceiling fan. Killed the controller (in the fan). $200-ish to fix, but I haven't yet because the dang thing is 20 feet in the air. I need a 16-foot step ladder just to change the bulbs, but it's on a four or five foot downrod; no idea how I'm going to remove it for maintenance.

As a teenager, I never had that type of problem with my parents. They didn't demand or require respect. I didn't even try to appease them out of respect. I simply tried not to cause them too much trouble because I loved them to much, as they very much deserved.
Of course, some of my friends as a youth were very ill respected by others around the neighborhood, but not by my Mother, whom they always treated with respect...

Mark is a relatively common name, so perhaps in the interest of clarity and to avoid the confusion and the existential issue of getting a half-decaf-mocca-frapuccino instead of a soy milk-latte-extra-foam, he specified.

I took some pre-emptive action when my kids were pre-teens.
I explained, you are smart kids but you are about to become stupid. Teenagers are stupid.
Then when they were teenagers I would remind them that they were stupid but it's not their fault because teenagers and that they might grow out of it.

Your parents were very fortunate and so were you. A lot of people I know have kids who are difficult sometimes as teens. I have one friend whose son has turned out to be a nice hard working fellow (He's in his mid twenties) , but she did says for a while as a teen he would roll his eyes and snark and she and her husband finally said "Change your attitude or your lifestyle will change." He realize how fortunate he was having the parents he did and the privileges he had.

The appetite of active teenage boys is a wonder to behold. Their stomachs are bottomless pits. My kid brother was on the track team too, and he would come home after practice, down something like 7 peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and a half gallon of milk and still eat hearty at dinner time. And the guy was a toothpick when he was 16.
I can't imagine what big dudes on the football team eat in the course of a day.

You know how the band got started? This is brilliant, by the way.
Marty Balin wanted to start a rock band. The first thing he did was put together a group of investors to open up a nightclub. This way, his band would be guaranteed a place to perform. And if it didn't work out, hey, he'd still be part-owner of a San Francisco nightclub.
How bourgeois and capitalistic! And also, like I just said, brilliant.

The family next door had 10 boys and 2 girls. Can you imagine that food bill?
Sometimes the mom would just send one of the kids to the Dairy Queen down the street to pick up 4 bags of hamburgers for dinner. I can't blame her. I was friends with the girls and everytime I walked into the house it was like WWIII in there.
This is even more mind-blowing by today's standards. They had only 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The girls had twin beds, the boys were all jammed into 1 room with 10 bunk beds. I asked one of the girls how they managed with one bathroom. She said, "we had a schedule for taking showers. And you didn't linger."
I thought of them when I heard a woman say recently that she couldn't have a third child although her husband wanted one because they couldn't afford a bigger house and she couldn't possibly expect her kids to share a bedroom.

Nine kids in my family...7 girls and 2 boys. One bathroom. Oldest was out of the house by the time 2nd youngest was born and 2nd oldest was out of the house by the time youngest was born, so 7 kids at home was the most at one time. We had a 4 bedroom house.
When we got up to jr. high and high school, the rule was you had to take a shower after practice so you used the school's water instead of the house water.
Us girls shared the bathroom when necessary. One taking a shower, one on the toilet, 2 at the mirror, etc. The boys just headed outside to the outhouse. They knew they wouldn't get in there.

I had not known that and I just went down a rabbit hole of Airplane stuff.
I always thought I was hearing Jeff Airplane when I was listening to SCN's "Wooden Ships" and then I would get confused. So I looked up the song and each band has a version. So who wrote it?
Aaaargh. The streams crossed. Crosby and Still wrote it with Kantner (Airplane). Wiki says both versions are considered original.
Anyway, the rabbit pun was intentional.

There was a 20 year difference between the eldest son and the youngest son. Chris got married and became a dad at 21 and would bring his boy over to play with his young siblings.

heh. no someone needs some help with an unusual sheep venture and I was thinking of lending a hand. curious about how much it would cost to feed sheep in the northern midwest during the winter, assuming they could not graze on the frozen tundra outside.
the guy does not have any hay on hand this year so he would have to buy everything for his flock of 50 sheep which are about 10 months old to get to the spring.

I work at home 2 days a week, and I code, so sitting at a desk for hours at a time happens every day. I would turn the heat down in the winter and wear a sweatshirt, sweatpants, socks and shoes and put a lamp under the desk to help keep my feet warm. Worked wonderfully! Saved some $$$ that way...

The earth was thirsty for the snow. The winter wheat, in peril of its life, shrank in need to be covered with the soft white blanket. The snow began falling at dusk from a still and milky sky. The flakes at first were large and loose. They slapped against walls, against the boughs and trunks of trees, with the wet impact of a child's kiss. They clung, slipped, melted, and the earth for an hour or more drank them in like rain. With the sudden dark, the air turned cold, the ground stiffened, the snow gathered itself together in compact crystals and fell hard and fast as though the elements had had enough of softness. The sharp particles hissed against window-panes then settled down to a steady pelting.
Asa sensed the coming of the snow in mid-afternoon. He never failed in his planning, but because he worked so thoroughly and slowly he was often somewhat behind. He had begun but had not finished the laying of straw in the sheep-shed, the placing of salt pans and the cleaning of feeding troughs. The hired man Joe had moved on early to his winter factory work, probably to be near his sweetheart. Ase needed him now and knew he should have insisted that Joe help complete these preparations before leaving. He could not hold any man against his will. Hurry was impossible for him, but he made a more concentrated effort, tense against the tenseness of the sky, and finished the furnishing of the shed for its wooly winter guests. He filled the watering trough and set out for the high pasture. The dog Shep was anxious, understanding that some routine was about to change. He hesitated when his master did not go in the direction of the cows, followed at his heels uncertainly, then knew in an instant it was the sheep to be brought in, and bounded ahead up the brown hill. The sheep too had felt the impending snow and had taken shelter in the hemlock woods, dangerously near the bog. They were not in sight and Ase was disturbed.
He called, "Shepp, sheep, sheep!"
The sweet tinkle of the weather's bell answered him. Shep heard it , scented the flock, and was far ahead of Ase, to turn them gently, to drive them from the dark woods, over the hill, down the lane and into the shed, snug and welcoming. The bleats were excited, but hungry after the late poor feeding, the sheep began a contented nibbling on the bean-pods waiting for them. They ate daintily, their velvet noses twitching. Ase heard the first snowflakes plashing against the safe walls, and while there was much work still to be done, stood watching and listening. It gave a man almost more satisfaction to care for, feed, animals than human beings.

You're kidding, right?
"Writer's block" is something that everyone experiences. It's just that most professions are far more important than writing - the world could have been perfectly well off if Dorothy Parker had never written a thing - and the tasks in those other professions so important to mankind and so difficult that all have just assumed that one only has a very finite and limited amount of new ideas to contribute.
In math, or any of the theoretical sciences (real sciences), if one comes up with one great idea then that is a career. Depending on how great the idea is that could easily be an historical career. But very few are ever expected to come up with a second. That's why mathematicians tend to be finished by their early 20s (in terms of any ground-breaking work they might do) and the Fields Medal isn't even considered for anyone over 40.
That's not to say that there aren't mathematicians who come up with more than a single great idea or produce past their 20s. There have been some, to be sure, but they are so few that even Barky can count the number in all of history.
Writers just whine about it more than anyone else and like to pretend that their work is so, so, SO important. It isn't. Writing is, almost entirely, entertainment. Nothing wrong with entertainment. Man demands to be entertained. But entertainment doesn't take us from the caves to space.

Well stated. Pasteur was very annoyed when, after his second great idea, everyone thought it was luck.
When he had his third great idea, he came up with "Chance favors the prepared mind."

it's only a quarter of one here, i'm a drunken bastard of ill repute and it is my intemperate opinion that getting your dumb ass banned here, or anywhere else that you are otherwise welcome, is an exercise in being a dick.
twitter banned by some?
yeah, you likely shredded a few unicorns. BTDT
HuffPo? same same...
FarceBook? the butthurt is strong there.
banned here?
not the same, most likely. hell, i still have, last time i looked, an FGL log on.
why? because, when the host changed their mind about the blog, i just said "your house, your rules" and left, W/O a flounce.
same goes here, IMHO: it's Ace's place, and i'm a guest.
i can follow his rules, show myself out or get 86'd.
kinda like Paterico's, where i haven't poasted in months: he's on a #NeverTrump kick, so i just don't go there.

The only news here is that the more than 20-year-old alleged tax document was illegally obtained, a further demonstration that the New York Times, like establishment media in general, is an extension of the Clinton campaign, the Democratic Party and their global special interests, the campaign said in a statement.
I would say that the NYT better have their lawyers looking into some kind of attempt to defend a civil suit for invasion of privacy and violation of the privacy act. And that statement above is dead on truth and Trump is not the run of the mill RNCe stooge who takes shit lying down.

But one day I discovered that someone had signed onto my computer and used it to cruise porn sites during the night. That was an instant firing offense there no questions asked. I noted the time and the sites logged onto and forwarded it to IT. It had to be a security guard and he had to be incredibly stupid because all the doors were accessed using a card reader so they could tell who was on site and everywhere they had been during the night. And a security guard HAD to know that. Must be real stupid.

I just love a comment I read from an elected Dem rep in VA. The fact
that fraudulent voter registrations have been discovered does not mean
there is vote fraud because 'nobody voted with those names' as if
fraudulently registering to vote means you will not use that name to
vote, and the clown simply ignored the fraudulent registration issue at
all. But that's a typical lying PoS Dem for you.
Posted by: RickZ at October 03, 2016 06:43 AM (rkiAc)
This is because the fraud occurs in those Democrat controlled areas when they kick out the poll watchers. Once they have a free hand anybody they want to can vote away and since votes are not recorded by name and there is no way to tell if someone votes under another identity or not.

____________________
AZ has been fighting this battle for years.
Of course illegal aliens vote in the U.S. illegally. Why wouldn't they? They want to keep all their "free" benefits flowing, and of course they want to remain in the U.S.
The idea that we could trust foreigners who are in the country illegally and breaking numerous laws on a regular basis to not lie on a voter registration form (when they know there is a 0% probability that they will ever be caught and/or prosecuted for the perjury) was always ludicrous.
Here in AZ (and most likely happening all over the country), the "community organizers" who register illegals openly instruct them to lie, and tell them that if they are ever questioned (which is highly unlikely), they should simply say they misunderstood the question "Are you a U.S. citizen?" since English is not their first language. Because perjury is a specific intent crime, that makes it almost impossible to prosecute, and most prosecutors aren't interested in prosecuting perjury cases in the first place.
Of course, the left knew all along the illegals were/are voting in large numbers, which is why they continually refuse to provide states with the information states need to clean up their voter registration rolls. And it's why they sue and sue and sue any state, like AZ, that tries to require voter registration applicants to provide proof of U.S. citizenship when registering.

It also goes along with idiots who say there was no fraud because no one has been convicted. If the corrupt dems dont prosecute, you can't convict.

were/are voting in large numbers, which is why they continually refuse
to provide states with the information states need to clean up their
voter registration rolls. And it's why they sue and sue and sue any
state, like AZ, that tries to require voter registration applicants to
provide proof of U.S. citizenship when registering.

One of my favorite scenes before I dropped cable/satellite was that tarmac scene where Jan Brewer was eating the Choom's ass over his meddling in AZ stuff.

Fenelon, are you familiar with the now-defunct comic strip Cul De Sac? One of its characters was pondering his life and said "I wish I could be happy whenever it's now." That's how I always feel. Thank you for your advice and spiritual wisdom.
Here's a story and picture:
The story for everyone: Gary Cooper began his career in silent movies, but his popularity didn't really start until 1929s The Virginian. A few years down the line, Cooper and a friend decided to have dinner at a Hollywood hot spot, but when they arrived, they were told there were no tables free and they would have to wait.
Cooper's friend nudged him. "Go on, Coop, tell them who you are!"
Cooper shook his head. "If I have to tell them who I am, then I ain't."
Now a picture for the 'ettes: Cooper in 1958s Man of the West:

kind of attempt to defend a civil suit for invasion of privacy and
violation of the privacy act. And that statement above is dead on truth
and Trump is not the run of the mill RNCe stooge who takes shit lying
down.

.They have already said they had the obligation to publish the returns because of the greater public need or some such nonsense.
I am fairly certain that those three pages are all they have. They are the first page from his State tax Returns, one each for CT, NY and NJ for 1995, not his federal returns.
State tax law is not as harsh as Federal on the unauthorized release of tax returns and the NYT knows that. If they had his actual Federal return I am fairly certain they would not publish it as Trump would have an ironclad case against them and they would cease to exist when he sued them.

I loved his Sargent York movie. And I am convinced he did it so well because he really was playing himself. He was a conservative Republican and a big fan of Silent Cal. You just can not find actors like that in Whoreywood anymore.

In Los Angeles County less than 30% respond to jury summons. It's true that you could get arrested; it's also true that in the entire state's history, no one ever has.
I have a major county courthouse (Robert Blake, the Menendez Bros trials) less than a mile from me, but every summons involves driving into downtown L.A. during morning rush hour, finding a place to park, finding the correct building and the jury room etc., then hanging around all day with my granny infirmities.
I'm 63, with diabetes, IBS, a chronically broken foot and a few other goodies. I just can't do it, but the only way to officially get out of it is with a doctor's note. I don't have health insurance, so that note could cost me upwards of $100. I have no good options, so ...
