Thursday Night ONT: Stolen Thunder Edition
Gee, I had a big section on the SJWs driving that poor porn star to kill herself, and Ace went and wrote a whole post on it. Frankly, I'm expecting to get the 21st century version of this letter in my email any day now.
A Smart Military Blog
Napoleon was the Best General Ever, and the Math Proves it. Kind of interesting and wonky, a great article for historians who wish they were baseball nerds. I wasn't clear on how he determined the value for R, which is kind of key to his whole rating system. Still, worth a look and I know there are a number of stats minded people here who will eat it up.
Cute! Smart little girl. Music is a great way to teach kids. They are like sponges for knowledge, a lot more than most adults give them credit for. One of the most amazing things I've ever seen was Little, when he was Wee Little, learning to manipulate his environment and establishing the relationship of different objects in it to each other. I could actually SEE him thinking.

Feel Good Story of the Day He’s 22. She’s 81. Their Friendship Is Melting Hearts. A 22 year old black rapper started playing Words With Friends with an 81 year old white retiree, and the two became fast friends. I think Ms Roz (the retiree) said it best:
Ms. Guttman doesn’t know what all the fuss is about, since “people should be behaving this way with each other all the time.”Amen.

Or perhaps the words of John Adams ring true:
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."In any event, I've seen people claiming that everything going on in Washington is a result of the government falling apart. Maybe. But also maybe the Washington we have is the result of we the people falling apart.
Dilly Dilly! Crushing it on social media: Bud Light sends Minneapolis brewery a cease and desist from the Renaissance Pretty damn clever. Also cool that they gave the brewery owners two tickets to the Super Bowl. Related: Dilly Dildo! Bills fans are at it again. If this starts to become an annual tradition (and odds look good that it might), and if in response the Bills start searching fans entering the game for contraband dildos, I shudder to think exactly how these fans will start hiding them on their persons.
I'm Becoming a Big Fan of Sarah Huckabee Sanders Is she the best Press Secretary we've ever had? Dunno about that, but she's the perfect Press Sec for Trump. Not only did she tell reporters trying to gin up outrage over Trump calling Warren “Pocahontas” last week that what was outrageous was Warren falsely claiming to have Indian heritage, but then there is this:

If you really want to get depressed, consider the fate of a language like Udi / Caucasian-Albanian. Survives in a few lectionaries dug out of Sinai (and only because someone else thought the parchment was valuable, so scraped off its text), some monuments in northern Azerbaijan, and maybe some graffiti.
Here's a literate culture that might well have written down all sorts of other stuff about its history and culture... but we won't ever read it, because the texts are lost and everyone who could once read it is now dead.

The way things are headed, pretty soon there'll be only 1 guy who attends the game at the stadium, and he'll only go there to throw dildos.
Idea for a modification of the tradition: if the players kneel, pelt them with red, white and blue dildos.

Prayers please, for my husband's mother. If she makes it to Christmas I think it will be a miracle.
She lives in an unscale retirement community outside ATL, and refused to move into an assisted living apartment from her way too large "cottage" (3,000 sq. ft.) a few months ago. She keeps having spells due to BP dropping, and needs nearly round-the-clock care now, which she can well afford but doesn't want.
My husband went up briefly, but he's a business owner dealing with a million things and couldn't stay. His ATL siblings are pretty useless.
In comes D'oh Boy, who finishes exams tomorrow and has offered to go up and stay with her indefinitely. I love my kid. Two of his younger cousins have offered to help as needed as well.
Anyhow, MiL is 93, has lived a very blessed, incredible life. I wish for all our sakes the old girl would make it through Christmas.

The second parallel I'll draw is that humans have to be conditioned and trained to kill other humans. See our military or any military/fighting force for that matter. Same can be said for psychopaths who target individuals hoping that they try and harm themselves. Suicide is not natural and is not an easy choice to make.
I'll leave it with that and walk away. Y'all have a peaceful night.

Posted by: Anna Puma (HQCaR) at December 07, 2017 10:04 PM (mB06r)
I think the metric that was used was how much the commanding general added or detracted from the balance of each sides forces. He rates Napoleon highly because Napoleon's armies usually won while being the underdog (on paper), while other generals who always won were less rated because their armies were also already superior. The fact that the number of battles has such an impact on the rating makes the ranking suspect.

You can... and can't. It's just that the SJWs get off of twitter, notify news outlets, and generally try to hound you out of a job.
Which unfortunately works because HR departments are full of SJWs too, and companies are scared of them.

And now Flynn's judge recuses himself. Guess what? He's a FISA Court judge, perhaps the one who permitted the Trump family to be wiretapped for the Clinton Campaign.
I would guess that the Mueller/Clinton/Media Party will co-ordinate to bring back out the women who accused Trump.
Mueller will probably go after Trump's businesses and his family members, trying to bait Trump into firing him.
Throw in the phony Obstruction of Justice charge for firing the corrupt hack Jim Comey and there's your Impeachment Soup.

The last paragraph should've been more specific:
As Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks--somewhat prophetically--wrote last year, "When a society loses faith, eventually it loses the very idea of a sexual ethics, and the result in the long term is violence and the exploitation of the powerless by the powerful. . . . So it was the days of the patriarchs. Sadly, so it is today."
That should be "When a society loses Judeo-Christian faith". Muslim society has great faith, but their sexual ethics are about on par with that of the average congressman.

'Hmmm' on the list of great generals. This model is... problematic. On the one hand, I see no mention of Nathan Bedford Forrest- which is a huge oversight. Second, I would give the slight nod to Caesar over Napoleon for Alesia and Pharsalus. On the other hand, Alexander was just a beast.

Today I signed paperwork to have my dad put on Hospice. It's the third time he has been admitted, and they usually end up dropping him.
Well--Hospice thinks it's time now. He's lost 13 lbs since Sept, he has a problem speaking (he can still sing) and he has been confined to a wheelchair for two months because he can't balance,
Nevertheless, his heart is strong and he takes no meds whatever. He'll be 98 in a month.
Thanks in advance for any prayer that is sent up on Dad's behalf.

Actually, yes, there is.
Wasn't one such in the mid to late '70s, when I served, how. ev. errrrrrr.
After the disasterous BRAC "Peace Dividend" era, the adjoining Kelly AFB logistics base was dissolved.
The East side of the base, was sold and/or gifted to various civilian commercial enterprises.
The West side of the base was absorbed by Lackland AFB, and is now the Active Runway at said Air Force Base.
Prior to this, the only "runway" at Lackland was the asphalt paved "runway" immediately in front of the reviewing stand at the Base Parade Field.
That is all. Carry on. (but only one checked bag per passenger.)

Ireland wants to keep it's "soft border" with Northern Ireland, and both Ireland and the EU want to keep Northern Ireland de facto within the EU, with an internal UK border running down the Irish sea.
The UK gov't said all the UK entered so all the UK leaves. Further, the N. Irish unionist party (DUP), who are propping up the Tory minority government, said hell f**king no to any of that.
In response, the IRA and Ireland are trying to trigger an election (as per the peace agreement) to get Northern Ireland to rejoin Ireland an stay in the EU (a vote which they'd would likely win).
However, any such move would most likely mean that Ulster unionist forces just any and all peace agreements and get violent.
And remember, the unionist paramilitaries were always far, far more vicious than the IRA.
Any bets that weapons are being stockpiled, and bombs made, right now?

let's see. i = 9 + r = 18 + e = 5 but there are 2 of them, so moving the 5 over 2 places = 50 and n = 14, but we reverse and get 41.
So 50 + 41 = 91, minus the 9 from i = 1 + 18 = 19, which is just the 91 in reverse.
So the number you're thinking of is 10.

I think there should be an ethics committee and a process to remove Senators that have committed criminal or seriously scummy acts. If Franken had been more handsy with his staff, coming close to raping someone, for example, the Senate needs a way to deal with it. But, the stuff Franken is accused of 1) happened before he was elected, and 2) was pretty lightweight stuff. No, it is not acceptable for him to grab asses and tits, but, since nobody was seriously harmed, let the political process sort it out. When election time comes, the voters will have their say.

That would mean taking the politics out of, well, politics. Not going to happen. The only way the Senate throws someone out is if one of their members has gone so far over the line that even his allies refuse to give him cover.
Anything short of that, like an HR department that has power over the Senators, is a non-starter. The Senators are the bosses, and they will never give that power away to bureaucrats.

Take a bus tour through the areas behind The Wall in Belfast.
Damn near every mural, features World Communist Icons. Castro, Che, Pol Pot, Mao, Lenin, Stalin, Mugabe, etc.
Though a novel, read Leon Uris' book "Trinity". Does a damn good job of 'splainin things.
Much like his book "The Raj" nails EXACTLY the origins of the Israel / Palestine mess.
The Venona Papers, reveald after the fall of the Soviet Union, document the USSR funding of the IRA, in no small detail.
Commies are commies are commies, everywhere.

The only problem with that is Senators are elected by the people. As long as we stick with that, then a recall election should be the way to recall them. But, it should maybe be limited to one shot midterm - the 3 years mark. Don't want a case of an evenly divided state with a controversial Senator (say Trump) that is constantly running recall elections.
Even better, repeal the 17th and go back to the state governments selecting their Senators. Then it would make sense for them to have to power of recall.

A smart opposition party could truthfully counter that false claim by pointing out the Republicans who were ousted in the past 20 years or so for far less egregious reasons than sexual assault.
Many of those were driven out by the Dems.
The RNC could rightly claim they were far ahead of the Dems.
But we don't have a smart opposition party. We don't have an opposition party at all.

Somewhere (Ann Arbor?) there is a bar which holds 'Bullet Night', where graduating seniors take turns reading their letters of rejection from potential employers.
I recall that one year the guy that won, won because the potential employer had actually Overnighted the rejection by FedEx.

Also, he could have screwed them if he wanted to. It's illegal to use Fedex for non-urgent mail. Companies that get complaints get a big investigation and have to pay the post office for all the non-urgent letters they sent via Fedex plus a fine.

You're welcome Doctor.
It's a really really hard decision to make, and most people don't understand it. But the only way to saver yourself-- and your family-- from being miserable is no contact with the bad person.
Honestly, it was the best decision my Dad made, and I appreciate it. The decision is hard, but... not every woman who has a child is fit to be mother from an emotional standpoint. And exposure to those kind of hyper toxic people is really, really hard on everyone. Best to walk away.
Until you're in that situation yourself, you can't understand it.

My solution is to eliminate Senators as a distinct elected office and simply have the Governor of each state act as the state's representative.
If you want a second person, just have the presiding officer of one of the state's legislative houses be that second person.

Yes, that amendment is a big part of the problem. The Senate was intended to represent the states on the national scale. Also, and this is off the cuff and not completely thought out, but I think it might be harder to bribe a state legislature than to buy ads that run statewide. Meh, just rambling here. Anyway less easy, maybe to influence the whole state legislature than the voters at large.

No. Just Hell Fucking NO.
The workload of a State's Chief Executive is diametrically opposed to serving in the Bologna Factory of a Federal Legislature, in any capacity.
They are mutually exclusive, by any measure.
I get the gist of what you're proposing though, and am simpatico with your thinking, but not your solution.
So, what IS the solution?
Let the Governor appoint a U.S. Senator, with NO State Legislature approval.
No "process freeze" in legislative process, which led directly to the 17th Amendment.
A state elects a Governor? They vest him with this power, too.
Let it be written, let it be done.

Actually, one of the main drives to ratify the 17th Amendment was because the legislators were too easy to bribe , and it was thought that direct election would make it harder for to buy a seat. The shenanigans that happened in Delaware in the 1890's and 1900's was infamous.
Let us not also forget that state Legislatures can be plenty corrupt on their own, and being able to elect Senators would give them an in to funnel graft and $$$ to themselves.

I understand it. Luckily, most of my family (including my mother!) is quite sane and healthy, but I have one female relative whom I try to be close to and take of to a certain extent, but she has a full blown personality disorder. And I'm not being hyperbolic, I mean the real thing - emotions go from warm and friendly to intensely hateful within 2 minutes, and then back again. I think I have enough other stability in my life to deal with her a little bit - I feel sorry for her, she is very lonely since she works so hard at driving people away from her.

Brosnan was always to effete to play Bond. Always.
Craig simply hates Bond, and wants to destroy the franchise.
And I don't have an effin' clue as to WHO could step in and assume the role.
In real life? Prince Harry comes to mind. A real life badass, by any measure. But who knows if he has the least bit of acting chops?
If nothing else, I'm sure the 'ettes would approve of his casting in the role.

The downside, again, is that legislatures can be just as bad, if not worse, than a single Senator.
Though states were indented to choose the Senators, the Senators were independent from the states (aside from reelection) as insulation from state shenanigans and the bey of the mob.

There is a system of huts at high altitude around CO named for the 10th Mtn. I've been to one, twice, above Aspen (around 11,000 ft I think).
There's some interest in organizing an "historically accurate" biathlon - snowshoes and mountaineering skis, Mosins and Finn Mosins and Springfields and K98s, and steel profile targets at realistic ranges, engaged from cover. No fey fancy Anschutz 22s, high-camber competition skis, or gay little disks at short range.
Actually the biathlon has become watchable and exciting with lots of TV cameras, pretty dramatic. Key is the leverage of the shooting - one miss for a top 10 racer, in the latter stages, and bye bye. The historical biathlon wouldn't be watchable in that sense, but much more interesting to compete in.

I've got a friend who runs his own retail store. I was talking to him one day and explaining why I dislike Skyfall so much, and mentioned the hacking scene (among other things). A few days later, I was back in his store chatting with him. He told me that not long after I left on the previous day, he noticed an unfamiliar flash drive plugged into his cash register. He asked the guy at the register what it was doing there, and was told that the guy had found the drive, and wanted to see what was on it.
/facepalm
As for the scene, you wouldn't put the laptop on your network even after a thorough check. You might have missed something, after all. Instead, you'd put it on a closed network that only goes to an isolated computer that isn't connected to anything else, and you'd use that isolated computer to examine the contents. That way, if there's something hiding out on the machine that your anti-malware scan didn't catch, the only machine that gets infected is the one that you're using to examine the system.

I did try to persuade my husband to go back to court and get more defined visitation rights, but he wouldn't consider it even though he wanted more visitation.
One good thing about my son-in-law (the fellow that I was concerned about my stepdaughter marrying) is that when the mom tries to impose her insanity on everyone else, he has a wonderful way of rebuffing her that she seems to respond well to. He's not mean but he makes it clear that the rest of the family is not going to participate in whatever neurosis she is peddling.

Dog is doing slightly better. Meds have had some time to get into her system and get some traction. She is eating a little but that is much improved over nothing and trending in the right direction. We have started her on anti-nausea meds and some appetite stimulants as of this evening. Hopefully that helps move things along in the right direction more quickly.
Thanks for asking and, I presumptuously assume, your well wishes for the dog. Naturally I will understand if they are only for the dog.

I went back up the darkened staircase and saw something in front of me. I backed up a couple steps and turned on the light.
It was a spider dangling from the ceiling, precisely at face height.
It's outside now. At least it wasn't a face-sized spider.

Subaru? At 105K they get timing belts, water pumps and all the pulleys. It comes in a kit that runs a couple of hundred bucks. Or you can just do the timing belt and replace the pulleys that fail a spin check or look excessively worn and do it for under a hundred, like I did. I did spring for the entire kit at 210K though, since I was doing head gaskets (for the third time) anyway.

Durand Durand.
The movie was based off a French comic.
The French actually had some very good comics in the late '60's to '80's, at least. A lot of the early content of the magazine Heavy Metal was French in origin.

Old Camry. It's got 134,000 miles, and had a weird oil gasket issue. They had to take approximately 20,000 parts off to get to that fix that, which happened to be near the timing belt. Which is typically replaced at 100,000. So... WTH.
Thank you for thinking I'm smart enough to do that sort of thing. I have certain *skills* but car repair is not one of them. So... I contribute to the economy and support an awesome local small business.

Yeah, it's very important. As is the theme tune/song. A great opener, plus a killer tune does often lead to a better movie... or maybe it gets you pumped enough to overlook the weak aspects. With the songs, it baffles me how the producers get it so wrong, so often. Particularly over the last couple of decades. Get a great theme, FFS. Don't just accept some crap that Sheryl Crowe wrote while she was on the bogger, just because it's Sheryl Crowe. Don't settle for forgettable by a "name". It's not rocket science.

Tintin is by a Belgian, iirc. Probably the best thing to ever come out of that country (and may the fleas from a thousand camels infest Steven Spielberg's armpits for that travesty of a movie).
The movie "Valerian and the City of a Thousand Doors" is also apparently based on a long-running French comic. Though since I haven't seen the movie of the comic strip, I can't comment on it.

Valerian and Laureline is a good comic. It started out more conventional space opera, but ended up doing some very original things (a good chunk of Star Wars was stolen from it). In it's later years it got kinda political, but the '60's and '70's stuff is good.

It's no laughing matter. Elephants drink through their trunks. If the base seal leaks, then they are going to suck in air with that water. Then when they swallow that aerated water, they get the hiccups. Ever see an elephant with hiccups? It's not a pretty sight.

When I got to the checkout I was informed that the other books were from used booksellers and did not qualify for free shipping.
Oh, what the hey, just throw 'em on the pile. I can tell that I don't have enough books yet because there are still some places in the house where I can walk.

This is what makes living in the future so amazing. 8 days ago the ink on the cover art was drying so that it could be scanned. Today it's a legit best seller on Amazon. Actual Amazon, not just a fairly influential blog that influences the dextrosphere.
It's a real book on dead trees with an ISDN number and you can wrap it and put it under a christmas tree.

Well, they sure can cut cores, but that is a special (and expensive) operation these days, and normally only done on exploration wells. And the routine these days is to sleeve the core in an aluminum sleeve, cut it into 4-foot lengths, put caps on the ends, and hot-shot it to the lab in a refrigerated container. I don't even get to look at it, barring a few small slivers that fall out as it is being cut into lengths.
But the samples I normally examine are drill cuttings, caught off the shale shaker. Washed and dried, it looks like kitty litter. And indeed, cuttings of actual shale work just fine for that purpose; or as floor-dry. I often save my excess dried cuttings to use that way.

that's what i thought: drill down, pull the string, put the core drill, etc, on, go back down, cut the core, pull the string, put the regular head on, then back down... still 1 60' section at a time right?
that would be a royal PITA. i guess looking at the bits tells you about where they are, or if they are into the desired shale, right?

That's about right. They use the cores to do mainly petrophysical analysis, porosity and permeability, and of course, breakdown of any petroleum contained therein.
The cuttings are more than sufficient for us to tell that we are in the right target formation, and even can give us a fair clue to reservoir quality. On a horizontal well like this, my role is mainly to make certain that the wellbore remains in the desired layer of the formation, and that indeed it is still there at all. Sometimes we will encounter a place where the target formation was eroded away, or never deposited.

The judge handling the Flynn sentencing has recused himself because he was on the FISA court. He must have been the judge that accepted the Flynn plea agreement.
Also someone stated here a couple of days ago that he Giglio rule for exculpatory evidence doesn't apply to plea agreements, but all criminal defense lawyers know this. So defense lawyers have the prosecution declare under oath that they have no exculpatory evidence. So either Flynn can say he had negligent representation or the prosecutor lied under oath.

That made me chuckle. Not because you're wrong. I trust your research.
But there's something called 'paranoid illumination' which is when someone with paranoia ties all the pieces of the puzzle together and the light goes on in their brains. They're totally wrong, of course.
I shouldn't chuckle at that. But if you've ever seen someone do it firsthand it is tough to not initially laugh.

Seems to me that Roy Moore had a 19th-Century concept of courting and marriage. Waited until he became financially secure, and then "interviewed" prospective wife material in rather innocuous "dates". I suspect he wanted a virgin bride, and any gal who suggested putting out before marriage got red-penciled right away. Wouldn't surprise me one bit to learn that the two "complainers" were either spurned by him, or turned him down, and are now angry about missing out on what could have been.

I don't think they realize how many people tune out when they see her tuning up.

Today's latest illusion from the left is that in a speech (which I've seen on YouTube) Trump is clearly stroking out. He then proceeds to sign a document in about a 300 point signature -- that's about two inches in height.
It doesn't work like that.

Not leaking but someone is outing guys like Strzok and Ohr. They are being removed from positions where they can affect the investigation and put on ice.
But I also think there is someone behind all of this running a counter op on the investigations from the inside.

Indeed. Allred is like a rotating red beacon and a Klaxon honking "bogus, bogus, bogus".

If they didn't have projection they'd have nothing to talk about.

If you have an Ohr, you have to Strzok it, or your oat won't move.

We shall see.
I recall the IG investigation was started before Trump took office and weeks before Sessions was made AG.
Given the Obama track record I expect more of a cover up from it than a prosecution.
Posted by: MAGA at December 08, 2017 07:02 AM (LnOh3)
Exactly. Never said it was the DOJ exclusively,
The OIG is in charge of the investigation and I'm sure that office is finding lots of obvious stuff but I think they are being assisted from someone who has more access than anyone but the president over intel issues and has been there the entire time, hiding in plain sight.

The possibility (read that as high likelihood) that someone is inside running a counter op is interesting in that it indicates there is known malfeasance and criminal activity yet no one in Congress could/would make hay with it.
I suspect the fruits of Mueller, et al were beneficial to members from each side of the aisle and that's why no one has openly pursued it.

Yea, but do you remember why it was started?

I'm just catching up to the comments in the YouTube video and can say with certainty that my IQ just dropped 133 points.
