The closest sailboat has a kink in the hull. Notice the bow-on aspect forward and then the stern sticking out like a target angle of 310 degrees.
The sails are OK for wing a wing before the wind, with the wind dead aft. Stopping is the issue. Going to need fast work on the sails or a good anchor.

This country - this civilization - is rotten to the core, corrupt, godless and nihilistic. It's a scarred, bleak moonscape of death and desolation.
^^^ MPPP post
My response
No; It's not. Everyday on here we see people caring for each other and offering to help. Everyday on here we read about people caring for their families and friends and even people they don't know and asking for prayer.Almost everyday people posts links of stories about people in other parts of the country caring for each others or for animals Everyday we have a nice artwork to look at (Well, I wouldn't call"Man on an ottoman "nice" but Lucian Freud was skilled)
A number of people are having a hard time right now. Perhaps they should take one of two days a week from the board and read good literature, or read the Bible or other inspiring works or do things they enjoy.

Just look at who they call in these situations. They call the men with guns.
They are afraid of guns so they believe you should be afraid of them, too. Don't don't trust themselves with them because they know they're irrational and emotional and might kill anyone without provocation, and they believe that's how everyone else is, too. But they like guns. They just want to call someone to act as their proxy with the guns (and, interestingly, their "betters," too).

331 "The last thing I saw was a report that he is in rehab from side effects from his cancer treatment and that was in December. There are multiple people who said he was going to return to DC in early January but that obviously didn't happen."
I still have plenty of family and friends in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area. Official word - "oh yeah, he's just recovering, he'll be fine soon." Unofficial word - NO ONE is allowed to see him except close family and medical staff, who are sworn to secrecy. Any texts or communique's coming out with his name on it are written by staff, who are trying to keep up the fiction that he's still aware of his surroundings - he probably isn't.
The rumors say that he is *never* going back to Washington, and that at best he has only a few weeks left. No one will say he's in hospice, since it's private, very expensive, and everyone there is banned from speaking to anyone about it - but that's what it is. His mind may be too far deteriorated to even muster up the will to resign.
and no the Az Governor doesn't have authority to do anything about it. Bottom line, Az only has one Senator at the moment, Jeff Flake. Pathetic.

.Which brings up back full circle because no one can actually "do" anything to help him. They can't have him committed because we no longer have those facilities. The best they can do is a three day hold at a hospital with psych facilities and those are risky with all of the Civil Rights Activist Lawyers out there.
No doctor would take this kid as a patient after the first interview because they know what will happen and they don't want their practice to be associated with what they know is going to be the inevitable result.
The school kicked him out multiple times and there are no other alternatives because we no longer have a juvenile lock up program.
This is going to keep happening until we as a Society address these issues and that is never going to happen because no one wants to make those hard decisions.

We live happily forever so the story goes
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we'll try best that we can to carry on

My father was a very strict disciplinarian. "Fear of God" is an understatement. However, looking back, we had a great life growing up. We walked the line for sure, but it wasn't abusive in my mind. Some would have seen it that way at times.
My parents did the best they could given their backgrounds, resources and the stress that I know I was able to inflict. I cherish them and I can't imagine a world without them, though I know it's fast approaching. Thank God they're in relatively good health and are still very able and self-sufficient.

The most important part of being a parent is actually being there. If you aren't there and subcontract out your presense to someone else or even not "get in their business" if you are there, you get problems.
You know what's easy? Letting them not bother you. Letting them dress, go out with, eat, watch, play, go to any place they want because "they deserve it" which is really "I don't want to have the fight."
Then, as a mother when the adolescent male starts hearing "blah, blah, blah" from you, you have no adult male to loom large.

The man who put up this video was disturbed enough that he took a screenshot of the comment at the time and sent it to the FBI, with the name Nicholas Cruz attached to it. Told the FBI that it really bothered him.
FBI put a whole 5 minutes of effort into it, said "nope can't find him" and promptly forgot all about it. They had a president to sandbag, after all.
and now they say "Who could possibly have predicted this? Not the guy who called us and told us that this kid said he wanted to shoot up a school, no certainly not him!"

Lover of all who are lost,
Uncertain and alone,
Confused and frightened
arrogant and disrespectful,
anxious and fearful,
all who are seeking a safe and secure home
and all who are comfortably home in your presence,
Come to me now and make yourself known to me
as I seek to quiet the noise of the world,
the anxiety of my heart and mind,
and the call of unfinished tasks.
So that I may recognize and welcome your voice.
embrace your presence,
understand your call,
and invite you to change me more and more,
into that wonderful image you have of me
as your faithful, loving,
and obedient child.
Amen.
Rueben P. Job

i actually agree with this. Probably going to get bashed over this .
Yet police were called dozens of times, while protecting the broken child which has to be done, The family obviously had no resources or recourse , I am sure they were told the Behavior had to come to something more than screaming, yelling, breaking stuff, even hitting.
no idea what people do in these circumstances, I imagine if you have gold health care or are rich maybe there is help for everyone.

I have become much more circumspect over online comments, and I'm afraid of the ban hammer here.
The problem with new laws is simple. The democrats don't obey the law, even law they write. Instead, they use the law to suppress political opposition.
Just for an example, we could make a bipartisan agreement with the democrats; we the people give up our guns if the VIPs in Washingtion, and other politicians everywhere give up their armed security details and make law enforcement surrender their weapons because so many innocent civilians and their dogs get shot. If no one has guns, no one gets shot, right?
It worked for nukes. Universal disarmament. Peace at last. Peace in our time. Peace with honor. Who could be against that?

"What I would urge my colleagues is very
simple, ask yourselves what you told the voters before election day,"
Sen. Cruz said on the Senate floor. "Let your conduct after Election Day
match what you told the voters. The Democrats, campaigned as the party
of amnesty so they're being true to their promises. They promised
amnesty as their priority and they're being true. But for Republicans,
we promised something different. We promised to stand with the working
men and women, the union members, the steel workers - the men and women
with the calluses on their hands. And I urge every one of us to listen
to the working men and women, and to respect the rule of law, and to
vote against these misguided proposals."

Well, I guess she wanted two husky guys around. But a policeman, a EMS supervisor and a first responder and I were also in the bedroom. If Her Grace, Miley, was there it would have been perfect.
The two husky guys had the tools to bring her back, and she was amazed when she regained consciousness. "Who are all these people?"

I can't be sure here inside my bubble, but it seems to me like the Tyrants aren't getting the backlash traction they'd like on these tragedies anymore. Sure, the usual braying of the hoplophobic, but they're screaming hopelessly at the sky.

There's got to be a domestic counterintelligence unit and there has to be a unit handling crimes with interstate jurisdiction. I would be much, much more comfortable breaking those functions into two different agencies that are started from scratch and destroying the FBI altogether.

And having Bronco Bama staff it with Progs who willfully disobey the law and their oaths virtually insured it.
Speaking of, can you fire an FBI agent for clearly violating his or her oath? Alone? Or do they have to do something else in addition, like break a policy they've been duly informed of?

The problem with pointillism is that it's based on a false premise. For the color interaction to work for human viewing, those contrasting colors must be of a certain size--a size certainly larger than a point; otherwise, the technique actually dulls color effects. That Seurat and a few others could achieve the results they did is nothing short of amazing. They achieved beauty in spite of themselves.

I'd think he'd sit the kid down with his parental units and a school counselor and say, "Look kid, your parents may not know what you do online, but your classmates and everyone else who reads your posts do. There's a recurring theme of committing violence that's causing a lot of your friends to wonder about you. It's starting to get worse and we're here to try to help you, because you act as though you need that right now."
At least if I was a cop, that'd be where I'd start.

And if the cop did anything at all to him, his department is slapped with a civil rights lawsuit from the ACLU and he gets an involuntary early retirement.

We can't say the FBI ignored the warnings because they actually (on some level) think shootings serve their grander globalist police state agenda. We can't say they ignored direct warnings from Russia about the Boston bombers.
But there is a pattern under Obama especially, where DC led intervention seemed to be on the wrong side, like with Trayvon, Brown in Ferguson, Freddie the drug dealer in Baltimore ... all used by "DC deep state" to PROMOTE riot and mayhem.
Sacrifice for country can be required from our military at times, but to undermine our country, evil ones would (gladly?) sacrifice our children. With the pedophile island types in high places, it is incumbent on us to stop them, and reinstate common sense law and order.

Sure, it's the first big super-hero movie and that's a big deal, but I have to wonder if, say, Tyler Perry and Spike Lee (and even the Wayans brothers and their adult kids) are scratching their head and wondering where this myth of lack of representation in film is coming from.

Given that those laws are driven by constitutional requirements (so sayeth the judiciary), there's little point in such a conversation.

Yup, and yet the MSM and Hollywood are behaving as if this is unprecedented, a *major* achievement.
As with workplace sexual harassment, it's vexing that our current culture has to pretend to achieve or discover things that were achieved or discovered/addressed decades ago.
You would think the prevalence of Women and Enthnic Studies graduates would mean this was more well-known, but it seems to have spawned the opposite: thousand of SJW's dying to fight for the cause, and finding it mostly already settled, they resort to re-inventing, re-fighting old grievances.

But what I am fearful of, is the most character development for Black Panther has already happened in a previous movie. When he grew up, gave up simple revenge, and brought to justice the guy who splintered the Avengers and killed his father.

Hosea is more about (I don't mean to be offensive here) what I've seen called "performance art" prophecy - doing something outrageous in order to attract attention to your message à la Ezekiel or Isaiah.
What I always remember about that book is how the quote "out of Egypt I will call my son" (11:1) is reinterpreted in Matthew 2:15 to mean Joseph Mary and Jesus returning from Egypt after Herod's death.

I have an ex-inlaw like that, he pulls the voluntary commitment thing too. He has even done the whole Red Foxx "Oh momma I'm dying of a heart attack!!!!" routine to get hospitalized and to get out of being busted for being high on amphetamines and going nuts in public. He checked himself out 5 days later, after the police dropped everything since he was hospitalized.
Finally we've heard that he's having increasing bouts of pancreatitis, due to the years of drug and alcohol abuse. Everyone who's met him hopes it gets bad enough to finally kill him.

And once out of the Lady subset... they are declaring themselves my Equal in all things... and thus will get treated like I would a man.
They are starting to see the results of the breaking down of Gender roles that THEY say they want... that THEY fight for...

That is where I get really irritated. Both of my grandmothers were sole breadwinners in their families. Anita Hill was a nonstarter for one of them who worked as a higher-level drone in Dept of Agriculture (and very attractive). She just couldn't get why Hill would stay around or not say anything because in her day the rudeness of abuser supposedly in the dark ages of the 40s-50s-60s would have been career suicide for that abuser.
Seems more like a breakdown of civility to me.

Hence the routine for Clinton crime waves ... fake "serious investigation" that covered up, ignored, buried, wiped out ... delay deal delay ... then dirty cop Comey (or Mueller, others) "no solid evidence".

1. Strain your grease. Food particles make it go bad faster
2. Use it. If you use it, it won't be there long enough to go rancid (which is how it will go bad). 2 containers if you fry bacon regularly. A collecting one and an in use one.
Bacon fat and the "currently in use" stick of butter stay on the kitchen counter. Butter in a butter dish and bacon fat in old jelly mason jars.
