Sunday Overnight Open Thread (5/19/19)
Quote I
“Whenever I think about this and what he really deserves, I think, ‘We should turn him over to the Saudis, you know, his buddies. The same Saudis who got rid of that reporter, you know. Maybe they can do the same for him.’” Fran Liebowitz
Quote II
“Over time, you develop and evolve on the things you choose to honor … Jefferson is more problematic,” “There's a lot, of course, to admire in his thinking and his philosophy, but then again if you plunge into his writings, especially the notes on the state of Virginia, you know that he knew slavery was wrong. We are all morally conflicted human beings.” Mayor Pete Buttigieg
Quote III
“We don’t want anything to do with Merkel and Macron, who have destroyed this European Union. We want to save Europe from the bureaucrats, the bankers and the financiers that have ruined it all these years,”Italy’s Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini
And this is a reason why we can't have anything nice.
A GP has revealed he is planning to quit medicine over an investigation by the doctors watchdog into claims he ‘discriminated’ against a Muslim woman for asking her to remove her veil. Dr Keith Wolverson said he ‘politely’ asked the woman to take off the garment for patient safety reasons during a consultation last year because he was unable to hear her explain her sick daughter’s symptoms. He was then ‘deeply upset’ when last week he received a letter from the General Medical Council, the professional regulator, informing him that he was subject to an inquiry over allegations of racial discrimination which could result in him being struck off.
More facts revealed which continue to make us look like just another Banana Republic.
Former FBI general counsel James Baker said Friday he viewed the Steele dossier “skeptically” and was “concerned” about the veracity of the document when the bureau received it before the 2016 election. But despite those concerns, Baker was one of the FBI officials who reviewed the Carter Page surveillance warrant application, which relied heavily on information from the dossier.
Somewhere along the line, the value of human life was thrown out.
What began as a late-night vape sale in a quiet Centennial neighborhood ended in a star high school rugby player being shot and killed outside his house. The 18th Judicial District Attorney’s Office has charged four teens with first-degree murder and aggravated robbery in connection with, what Arapahoe County sheriff’s deputies say, was a botched robbery attempt that left 18-year-old Lloyd Chavez IV dead. All four have been charged as adults. Juliana Serrano, one of the teens charged in connection with the shooting death, told police that she and three others — Kenneth Gallegos, Dominic Stager and Demarea Mitchell — went to Chavez’s house with the intention to rob him of vape juice, according to Gallegos’ arrest affidavit. There was an exchange of money before Chavez and Mitchell got into an altercation on the lawn, according to Serrano’s account in the affidavit. At some point during the fight, Chavez was shot in the chest.
The fish jokes continue to write themselves.
During a three-hour operation in Brazil on April 23, doctors used an acrylic mold wrapped with the skin of a tilapia fish to rebuild and extend Maju’s fake vaginal canal. Called neovaginoplasty, the procedure involved two molds. The first mold was the aforementioned one with the tilapia skin. This one will remain permanently in his body. “In contact with the patient’s body, the sterilized and odor-free fish skin displays stimulatory cell growth properties. It is rich in type 1 collagen a substance that promotes healing and has a firmness and elasticity which is as strong and resilient as human skin,” the Post notes.
Women are catching up with men in the drinking department. And it's not a good thing health-wise.
Women are drinking more today than ever before — a statistic that closes the “drinking gender gap” while opening them up to a rash of long-term health problems. The bodies of women and men do not break down and respond to alcohol identically, and it’s not just a matter of size, as Liquor.com notes. And no, this is not an opinion-based statement nor is it a shaming of females who like to imbibe. Now that that’s out of the way: women’s bodies (evidently) contain less water, a key component in dissolving alcohol, which means they end up with higher concentrations of alcohol in their bloodstreams than men. Women also tend to carry more body fat than men do, which holds on to alcohol. The female body also produces less of the enzyme dehydrogenase (or ADH), which breaks down alcohol.Toxic masculinity, man 'splaining about science that is settled.
No hate. No call to violence. Just stating an opinion, gets another Conservative booted from Face Book.
It's about time the feckless GOP realized they are next on the list of the intolerant left.
"Men are scared of women now."
Men are scared of women now. LeanIn.org and SurveyMonkey’s new #MentorHer poll reveals Friday that 60% of male managers report feeling “too nervous” about being accused of harassment to interact with women in “common workplace” activities such as mentoring, socializing and one-on-one meetings. That’s a 32% spike from 2018, with an additional 36% of men saying they now actively avoid women in junior-level positions — effectively chopping down their shot at climbing the corporate ladder. “The vast majority of managers and senior leaders are men,” says Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook COO and founder of LeanIn.org, in a statement. “If they are reluctant even to meet one-on-one with women, there’s no way women can get an equal shot at proving themselves.”
The European Union has some plans up its sleeve for Face Book.
Should Facebook be broken up? Despite her reservations about the massive social network, the EU’s competition commissioner, one of the few people with the authority to pursue such an aggressive action, doesn’t think it’s the best way forward. “For us, it would be a remedy of the very last resort,” Margrethe Vestager said today in Paris at Viva Technology, a flagship European tech conference. “It would keep us busy in court for maybe a decade.” Vestager, whose directorate recently slapped Google with a $1.7 billion fine for alleged unfair practices in the online advertising market, thinks there’s a better way: She says it could be much more powerful and direct if tech titans like Facebook were required to give other companies access to important data. “We think much more about access to data when it comes to, for instance, misuse of position of a monopoly,” she said. ”If you have no access to data, you won’t be able to make it in the market because you cannot access potential customers.”And this won't be wrapped up in the courts?
Born on This Day: 19 May 1945
English musician, singer, songwriter Pete Townshend, The Who. Had the 1965 UK No.2 single 'My Generation' and the 1967 US No.9 single 'I Can See For Miles' plus over 20 other UK Top 40 hit singles, 16 US Top 40 singles and rock opera albums 'Tommy' & 'Quadrophenia'. Townshend became known for his eccentric stage style swinging his right arm against the guitar strings in a windmill style, often smashing guitars on stage. Although known primarily as a guitarist, he also plays keyboards, banjo, accordion, harmonica, ukulele, mandolin, violin, synthesiser, bass guitar, and drums. via thisdayinmusic.com
On This Day: 19 May 1979
Eric Clapton held a party at his Surrey house celebrating his recent marriage to Patti Boyd. Clapton had set-up a small stage in the garden and as the evening progressed, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr ended up jamming together along with Clapton, Ginger Baker and Mick Jagger. The all-star band ran through old Little Richard and Eddie Cochran songs. via thisdayinmusic.com
They say that love conquers all, if you are meant to be then it’ll be. Well, a woman was more than determined to make it work with her boyfriend, so much so, that she went to the extreme. And by extreme I mean she posed as a Sheriff to release him from jail. Yes, you just can’t fake true love.
Quick thinking and faster acting heavy equipment operator is Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.
Lan Junze was working at a construction site in Fushun when he saw a building go up in smoke nearby. Lan reportedly heard screams for help and drove his crane to the scene of the fire, which was just a few blocks away. In a viral video, Lan is seen using the crane to help residents escape the fire, which appears to have started on the building's ground floor. In total, he saved 14 people in less than 30 minutes.

And you can set up every bit of the needed equipment on as little as 4 ft. workbench.
Gotta get you plugged into your local wholesale Jeweler's Exchange, too.
Seriously. Precious metals and gems at wholesale, so you can turn a profit on what you make at retail.
The one out on the S.W. side of Houston is in a six-story building....with rather impressive security. As you might imagine.
If you haven't already got yourself set up as a Subchapter S Corporation, with local Sales Tax filings, DBA and etc... it's time, cause you'll have to have all that to gain an account at a Jeweler's Exchange in any given city.
But then, you can also write off a metric shit ton of expenses from your enterprise, and end up (likely) with a damn near zero tax bill, at least for the first few years.
If you go this route, let me know. I still have some links for top-end sanding, buffing & polishing equipment and supplies.

But! I got to play with my grandson today. Not talking yet, but babbling up a storm. Told me such stories!
Saw the new 8wk-old granddaughter, too. She slept. And nursed. And slept. And cried once. Entertaining, though.

No chance of any corruption there. Nope. Not a smidgen of corruption.
She no doubt lives paycheck to paycheck in a sparsely furnished apartment. She's a public servant who could have made millions in the private sector, but she is soooo compassionate that she only does things for the good of all. Just like Happy-Go-Lucky Michelle.

Jeff Purvis considers himself a recovering racist. He subscribes to the theory that just as an alcoholic is never cured, a racist is never absent of bigotry. But he also believes one has the capacity to acknowledge and control their weaknesses.
Purvis believes that because the blood of racists flows through him, he too is racist. His ancestors have passed. But he said he feels the weight of the stories, stories of bigotry, that he's heard them tell over the years.

I can't tell you how many women have been traumatized by hearing boys/men joke about fishy vaginas. This is why so many of us fell for the bullshit advertising that assured us of the need to vaginal sprays and douches, and the resulting paranoia over oral sex. Plenty of boomer women feel so uncomfortable with the idea that a man might be offended by their scent that they either decline oral sex or suffer through it, imaging that the man is "tolerating" their scent. And this hasn't changed for millennial women either, apparently.

Totally get that. I would never say that to a woman I was with. Mostly because of manners but partly because I was pretty stocked to have access to a vagina. Lol.
But there were some girls that obviously had some medical issues going on down there and needed some help. That was something I encountered twice before. And I suffered through it so as not to emotionally scar the girl. It was bad though. But it happens.

Well... that was unpleasant.
Yknow, I didn't give much thought to what guys did with guys, in my youthful, naive, Playboy-fueled girl-hunting days, but I guess I always just presumed homo guys' main thing was orality. I liked BJs, so I could sorta get it. (But, I did wonder, aren't girls' throats, you know, different than men's? No Eve's Apple. Well, that's all beside the point.)
I wish I had not been subsequently enlightened about the male homo culture's emphasis on (and dire consequences of) male anality. One relatively recent article linked by Ann Barnhardt expanded that knowledge in ways I really didn't need. Like zombie's Fulsom(?) Street pictorial.

It's like taking classic Yes songs, chopping them down to 4 minutes, replacing the high-pitched vocals, and cutting out all the keyboard solos because you wish they Bob Seger songs. If that's what you want, then go buy a Bob Seger album.
If Jefferson wishes the Bible was different, then go read a different book.

I have a somewhat unconventional idea about people. As I've gotten older, I've thought of my various relationships as sort of an art collection. I keep the ones I want close at hand, aka "in the gallery," while others are in and out of storage. Some are never worthy of being part of the collection.
In the end, I'd rather have a very small number of like minded people than lots of superficial, annoying relationships.

Yeah the girl's weird AF, but she's kinda grown on me. Hard to categorize... her earlier work has been described as "dark folk". Her newer stuff is... ?. Her vocal range is pretty incredible. Not so much in pitch, but in tonality... That's achieved through facial gesticulations that are at first off-putting but, well you get used to them. They're not very evident in her produced videos, but they are in her live performances (see, e.g., her performance on KEXP: https://youtu.be/75l9YdDrgvw ).
Finally, this vid is truly Moron-worthy, although it would be more so if she used real guns:

I'd never really thought about it, not being a savant of gopher sociology, but once he said that, it made sense.
The gopher has to burrow along underneath plants to eat their roots. Now that HAS to be a relatively labor intensive task, unlike grazing on the surface, so the more mouths the gopher has to feed, the bigger the burrowing burden becomes, rather quickly.

There some movie with Bogart I remember, where he plays sort of a more "nerdy" (for him) character, something of brain.
He corrects the leading lady who gets something wrong with "No, nuh no, nuh no, no, no!"
I wish I could find that one. It's hilarious.

You never know, he might have been a dusky Evariste Galois,* who spent the night before he was killed - at age 20 - in a duel (over the honor of a whore he barely knew) writing out the basis of group theory.
* He was the guy who proved that there could be no closed form solution for any polynomial above fourth order (i.e., no big brother of the quadratic formula for quintics or higher order polynomials). Pretty good for someone of millennial age now. Also, pretty stupid for getting killed for a whore's honor.)

She has made several short films depicting her situation. She is bitter, angry and bitter. She sees all her former talent and fame as being due to her role at the center of the New York city pre-AIDS male gay culture. And then she spent years helping take care of all her friends as they wasted away. Did nothing for several years but go to funerals. In this century I don't think I've once heard her refer to herself as anything but an insane penitent.
Ir's hard for me to comprehend how cruel you'd have to be to take a person in this frame of mind and get them going about current politics. Despicable.

True story. Einstein was in Greenville, SC way back the day for something. My great-uncle was the shop foreman at the Greenville Cadillac dealership. Uncle Al was looking to buy a car for his son. He stopped in that Caddy dealership and that uncle met him.
Einstein settled on a Ford. Now, that uncle was GM man through and through and that proved to him that Einstein wasn't all that 'cause he was stupid enough to buy a Ford.
My father, a Ford man to the same degree, used to razz the uncle with that.

Here's why I use three ">" symbols. Take away calculus.* Then Einstein would have been an accountant. (He started out as a patent examiner.) He was basically following Newton, as has everyone else in physics since Newton. Everyone in physics - hell, in all of serious science, and even in non-serious subjects, such as economics - has been following Newton ever since, and just working out the ramifications of his ideas.
* I'm neglecting Leibniz here, but Newton's contribution extended far beyond calculus per se.

Here is a picture of the tractor Miley will be driving:

That's a later model, the "II" series, but it's close enough, with a canopy like ours.
Note it's a bigger tractor with a platform. Those are much better to learn to drive that smaller tractors, believe it or not. I can ride up there sitting on the fender right next to her. Being much heavier, it's much easier to handle.

Back when I was young and stupid, I was out with a female friend from college. She asked me what it was like to have an orgasm one night after we went out to the clubs. I explained it to her as best I could. 'Well, you see, it's kind of tingly..." or sumsuch.
Figured out what she was really asking ten years later.

Stalin's grandkids, not kids. Svetlana Alliluyeva had two daughters, who I believe are both still alive - one is a scientist in Siberia, and the other runs a boutique shop in a trendy part of Portland. When Svetlana died in 2011, the Portland paper noted the odd fact that one of Svetlana's kids lived in Portland.

Absolutely. I lived for many years in Europe in a culture that, much like that of Japan, favored the obscure, subtle, elliptical form of communication.
We had some serious culture shock. I'd say something, and people would ask what I meant. EXACTLY what I said, that's what.
"But what are you getting at? What's your agenda?"
"I TOLD YOU EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GETTING AT. IN WORDS OF ONE SYLLABLE. THAT'S IT. NO MORE, NO LESS."

You'll get the hang of driving one, maneuvering and steering in short order. However, to be good at it, and to handle the array of implements one uses, will take a while.
It will be a while before I'd turn her loose and not worry.
She's got to learn steering brake and hydraulics.
Me, I become one with the tractor and implement. It becomes an extension of my body, like my own limbs. I know where every part of the tractor and implement are at all times, and the effect every control input will have.
It took me 15 years to get to that point. Then you get old and lose it all.

I got EXACTLY that one time. I was invited to spend time at the science city in Japan by the Japanese government. I had a good friend there, someone I'd met in the US, and once when I asked something, he'd looked pained, and said "it is difficult." Namely, "no way."
The Brits have a corresponding expression: they'll smile and say that they'll do that "when the time is right." Meaning "when hell freezes over." Thatcher used that expression once, in regard to the European monetary union, IIRC, and at that point I understood what she meant.

Two additional features, if I read things correctly.
* The aforementioned German internal propaganda film, extolling their Luftwaffe & Flak Gruppe's effectiveness in shredding the hated Amis and their B-17s. In excruciating, horrid detail, they've warned.
* A bit of a mini-documentary as to the making of Cold Blue, and the dedication given to "getting it right".
So, a bit of a "brace yerself" (myself included) warning in the billing, there.

Estate sale was so-so. Good sales on Friday, AC crapped out on Saturday ($1,300), and heavy rain on Sunday.
Probably cost a good 30% or so in lost sales. *sigh*
House sits empty now.
I sort through such things as I hauled back to Galveston with me. Vast numbers of photos, most destined for the bin.

I was looking up Einstein in Greenville, SC. His son, Hans Albert lived here for several years, and Einstein would visit him. That was the son he was buying the car for.
And there are tales. When visiting, Einstein would oft take long walks and wander off in the landscape. There are quite a few tales of locals bumping into him.

Here is the definitive paper on the confrontation between General Relativity and experimental observation:
https://arxiv.org/abs/1403.7377
That was written in 2014. Before LIGO's historic detection of gravitational radiation.
----------------------------------
General relativity has held up under extensive experimental scrutiny. The question then arises,
why bother to continue to test it? One reason is that gravity is a fundamental interaction of nature,
and as such requires the most solid empirical underpinning we can provide. Another is that all
attempts to quantize gravity and to unify it with the other forces suggest that the standard general
relativity of Einstein may not be the last word. Furthermore, the predictions of general relativity
are fixed; the pure theory contains no adjustable constants so nothing can be changed. Thus every
test of the theory is either a potentially deadly test or a possible probe for new physics. Although
it is remarkable that this theory, born 100 years ago out of almost pure thought, has managed to
survive every test, the possibility of finding a discrepancy will continue to drive experiments for
years to come. These experiments will search for new physics beyond Einstein at many different
scales: the large distance scales of the astrophysical, galactic, and cosmological realms; scales of
very short distances or high energy; and scales related to strong or dynamical gravity.

So I cut about nine inches out of the bottom the hat channel, including the section with the tie-down eye, and part way up each side of the hat channel, until I got past the rust. Then I cut strips and panels of new steel, formed them to fit, and welded them in place. Ground the welds, welded the tie-down eye back on solidly, and ground those welds. A little black paint, and a little roofing patch asphalt to act as undercoating, and it looks almost like new. And certainly strong enough to do what it has to do.
Now, on to brakes and suspension bushings tomorrow.

Townes had a hobby in SETI. Sometime in the 2000s I think it was, he came back and gave a talk at Furman. My mother, who isn't interested in physics much at all, went to hear it, because he was a fellow Furman alum who made it big.
One of the things he touched on was SETI. He believed that any aliens would be using lasers, optical pulses to communicate, not radio. Much more efficient and directional, and he did some work on that.

Diagnosis: kidney stone
I staggered out of the car in the ER driveway, screaming and yelling and moaning and sobbing and calling for the sweet release of immediate death.
This continued for a good two+ hours, because after they found out I take pain meds for my back, they figured I must be faking to get more.
And then they saw the CT scan that my uninsured self was forced to undergo.
Then they sheepishly added the fentenayl to my iv.

Another election, not sure about SCOTUS, we should be focused on this other issue, it's a year ending in a number, etc., etc. I give these states all the credit in the world, screw all that, let's do something to end this nightmare of abortion.

He's actually in there. Very respectful and well done. Interestingly, when we were there last month, they had two security guards in the hall, which I don't remember seeing before. Fortunately, no shenanigans from the audience.

Not sure about SCOTUS is a huge issue with lots of groups. The NRA refused to back the heller law suit at first because they truly though they would lose and that would sound the death knell for individual gun rights.

That is absolutely true and needs to be done. I think it will damage the GOP's chances in 2020 though.

Yeah, probably. Though it is funny since they aren't doing anything themselves. Top.Men. They get all the grief and none of the gain.
Posted by: Grump928(C) at May 20, 2019 07:24 AM (yQpMk)
Don't get me wrong I am not opposed, but the timing seems to be that they don't care if it damages this particular President's chances of reelection, or any other GOP candidates chances. The Left will use this issue to crow about how the right wants to take away "women's rights". There have been plenty of opportunities to make a stand on this over the past thirty years, but suddenly now is the right time?

Here's why I think now is the time: First, people are disgusted by the Left's sudden urge to legalize abortion up to the moment of delivery. Just read that consistently, for years, there's only been ~13% support for late-term abortion. Reminds me of immigration issue in 2016: 75% or so wanted less immigration and laws enforced, while all but one candidate said: open borders = love. The one guy who sided with the majority won.
Second, this election has a lot of candidates pushing for socialized medicine. Think people inherently understand that abortion push today dances on the line of killing a human being for various non-medical reasons. This is exactly what happens in socialized medicine: they withhold care to certain groups to save money, because they "care" about the quality of life of the patient.
These two issues are connected, and it is critical we don't cross that threshold into legalizing murder.
Posted by: Lizzy at May 20, 2019 07:37 AM (W+vEI)
Then we are all totally fcked and the abortion issue will swing way left.

I am hard pressed, not to mention horrified, to imagine what further left could entail. Mandatory abortion I guess. We already have the most unrestricted abortion in the Western World.

-Free abortion
-Forcing all caregivers, all hospitals to perform them
-Post-birth abortion for sick babies (see: Groningen protocol)
-The abortion mindset (it's OK to kill inconvenient people) applied to seniors, the disabled, etc.

So we should cancel the elections next year for they are a foregone conclusion?
One, the abortion laws you are seeing proposed/enacted are more than likely a response to NY's move to legalize straight-out infanticide. (I hear the new NY state song is "Silent Scream" by Slayer.) I would wager that if NY didn't do that, you wouldn't see the reaction in other states now.
Two, as noted before, there is ALWAYS the possibility of negative voter reaction - no matter what.
Three, NO MATTER WHAT, the Republicans will be accused of hating women/gays (who are, far and away, THE most important people in America, don'tcha know), and anyone else who are not white men. To which I say, if this is the case, screw it, you will be criticized any way no matter what you do, so there's nothing to lose.
And let's just go ahead and hold the 2020 elections anyway, at the very least just to double-check your predictions.
