"It's been crazy," "We feel how everybody else feels. It's been wild, it's been crazy, it's been unexpected. But we're going to go out there and play regardless. He made that decision. We're going to go out there and play how we're going to play." Oakland receiver Tyrell Williams
Quote II
We should do what any other country does by dealing with this situation in a serious way,” Omar said during an immigration forum in south Minneapolis. “So, we have to bring in the United Nations high commissioner on refugees, an agency that has the expertise and the training to handle massive flows of refugees humanely.” Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN)
Quote III
We are not responsible for the Ukraine’s crisis. We did not support the unconstitutional coup in Ukraine, and we did not provoke the reaction of part of the country’s population to these actions. Russian President Vladimir Putin
Quote IV
I firmly believe that if you have to spend more than 15 minutes in a clothing store, you don’t need what you think you need. Gerard Van der Leun

“The Transport Workers Union is shocked by the reported allegations of airplane sabotage by an employee. If these allegations of sabotage are true, they are outrageous and indefensible, and we fully condemn such actions. Our mechanics are highly trained professionals who are dedicated to performing at the highest standards in the industry – and we will not tolerate anything less,” John Samuelsen

Vaping has been popular for quite some time. What went wrong? The CDC has issued a warning against all vaping.
the product is confirmed.Pixabay
E-cigarettes are often billed as being great tools for smoking cessation, but they've quickly risen to become the most commonly-used tobacco product among U.S. teens—including many youths who never smoked traditional cigarettes to begin with. That's a troubling trend given how little we know about their health effects, and now we're facing the consequences: A mysterious lung disease is suddenly striking teens, and appears linked to vaping. There were three deaths and 450 probable cases tied to the condition as of Friday, leading the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to recommend that people stop vaping entirely until the source is confirmed.
Earlier this week, health officials in New York State—who had been investigating 34 cases reported by doctors in the area—identified a potential lead. The incidents in the state involved individuals using a vaping product containing cannabis. When tested, each of those products also had high amounts of Vitamin E acetate, according to an official statement from the New York Department of Health. This form of the vitamin is often used in beauty care products because it has a long shelf-life. While studies have found that Vitamin E acetate is generally safe for external use and oral ingestion, there's far less evidence to suggest its safe to inhale.
There is something magical and quietly hilarious about the ability of a fast food chain peddling chicken to arouse deep outrage from the alienated few and yet record-setting patronage by the greater public. Chick-fil-A manages to do the seemingly impossible: it enjoys the largest per store sales of any fast food chain, despite being closed on Sundays. And that religious observance is related to the hatred directed at it from those who resent its support for causes related to promoting biblical constraints on sexuality. Yesterday, Chick-fil-A ventured beyond the borders of the United States for the very first time, opening the first of 15 planned stores in the Greater Toronto Area, and militant homosexuals as well as animal righties attempted to obstruct customers, some of whom started lining up as early as 6:30 A.M., from entering the store>
Here's how you save the world. Abort, abort, abort per Bernie Sanders (I-VT) Not to be outdone by Sanders, Swedish professor Magnus Söderlund Cannibalism combats the effects of climate change.
A Swedish scientist suggests that it may be necessary to turn to cannibalism and start eating human flesh to save the planet (giving new meaning to the expression bite me) And NO this story is not from The Onion. A conference about the food of the future called Gastro Summit being held in Stockholm Sweden featured a presentation by Magnus Söderlund claiming that we must get used to the idea of eating human flesh in the future, as a way of combating the effects of climate change.
Communication without the internet is possible. Bridgefy.
How do you communicate when the government censors the internet? With a peer-to-peer mesh broadcasting network that doesn't use the internet. That's exactly what Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters are doing now, thanks to San Fransisco startup Bridgefy's Bluetooth-based messaging app. The protesters can communicate with each other — and the public — using no persistent managed network.
Mexican drug gang. Brutal, judge, jury and penalty enforcer.
The man, in his 30s, was attacked in revenge for allegedly raping a woman in Mexico City, Mexico, last month. The gang released a graphic video of the moment the man was mauled by the pitbull terrier as a warning to other sex attackers, authorities believe. He was stripped naked, handcuffed and held to the ground by five men before the dog was let loose.

Just another alcoholically impaired Genius Award Winner.
According to a KDHPD news release, a call was placed to 911 at approximately 2:30 p.m. concerning a white pickup truck that had gone in the ocean at Arch Street in Kill Devil Hills. The passenger was able to get out, however the driver was still in the vehicle. Officers arrived on scene and were able to get the driver out of the pickup. The driver was identified as Troy J. Topash, 41, of Kill Devil Hills. Upon further investigation, he was determined to be impaired and was arrested.

There is a thing with young idiots called cloud chasing.
It's a contest to see who can exhale the largest vapor cloud.
Some of the equipment is quite large, not the vape pen you usually see. It also isn't cheap. Adding pot of unknown strength and content to that and inhaling it deeply is stupid in the extreme.
Lots of my customers used vaping to stop smoking. Cut down the nicotine by degree until zero. Dopers get no sympathy from me.

He wrote an article in the current issue basically saying that We Are All Doomed - severe Climate Change is going to happen, and we are incapable of stopping it.
Yes, we should still turn over the economy and all political power to the government, prepare for tens of millions of climate refugees from overseas, ban meat eating, and ban assault rifles (which is a climate issue, dontchaknow), but we need to acknowledge that our living standards will collapse, and we will die young, no matter what we do.
Well, it turns out that this violates The Party Line, and environmentalist Twitter has turned on Franzen with a vengeance. You see, according to the Party Line, if we turn over the economy and all political power to the government, there is still a little time to save ourselves.
Of course, you'll never get to eat meat, fly, or own a private car ever again, but these minor sacrifices will Save The Planet. Why, heretic Franzen even questions the usefulness of the Green New Deal, the pig.
There is some effort to refute Franzen's points, but most of the criticism is that Franzen is a White Male, who doesn't even have the decency to be homosexual. What is he doing publishing in the New Yorker anyway, when there are so many black lesbians who have never been published in the New Yorker.
Saying that "we're all doomed" is an expression of White Privilege (since white people will be marginally less doomed than People of Color), and straight white males have no business saying this.

-------------------
Sort of.
We talked about it in an ONT a little over a week ago. Bridgefy relies on a "mesh" of Bluetooth devices that are all within range of each other. So it'll work great over short distances, such as within a single city (i.e. Hong Kong). It won't work so great if you're trying to talk to someone on the other side of China because it probably won't be able to get a long enough chain of devices.

There are two kinds of cannabis concentrates available, they are 95%+ pure THC, very potent one-puff stuff. There's a thick oily concentrate, very sticky, that has to be burned to consume, let's call it oil. Then there's a "distillate", a thinner lighter liquid, that can be vaped as a steam at lower temperature. If people are buying the oil on the street and it's been cut with other liquids such as the mentioned vitamin oil in an effort to make it vapable as steam then people are doing something they should not do. It has no relation to nicotine vaping which so far seems to be a safe activity.

Chloroform is another one of those Hollywood tropes that is like the old "pew-pew" silencer trope.
You know how long it would take to knock an average person out with chloroform? About 5 minutes.
You'd have to get your victim to quietly sit and inhale from the soaked rag regularly for about 5 minutes.

this is just b/c the Ace of Spades site domain isn't HTTPS
it doesn't need to be HTTPS! I. e. it doesn't have a security certificate which again, no e-commerce, I don't think it would need one at all.
don't worry about it - you probably just noticed it or maybe there was a change to safari app to show it. I always see that on desktop safari.

It might be due to something about the site software. It's hard to say.
I recently upgraded the operating system on my Android phone. And right after doing so, I got an alert that the network that I was attempting to connect to (i.e. my home wireless network) was not secure.
/rolleyes
So it could just be that something about the Minx software doesn't look right to your phone.

this site, I get "Not Secure - ace.mu.nu". This is new. I got it on
another dissident conservative type site too. I assume this is just
another attempt to manipulate us and discourage readership. Anyone else
have this issue? Is this common now? Any way to remove or get around
the "not secure" message? Thanks.
While we do have our issues around here, I think it's referring to the fact that the site isn't using https. So, no encryption, certificates, blah blah, just good old fashioned http plaintext the way Vint Cerf intended it.

it actually loads the same content and you don't get the message - that's the good news!
the bad news is it looks kinda weird
me personally I'm ok with the silly message. I get it with lots of blogs and small sites. it's no big. there's probably a privacy or security setting for Safari which allows you to disable it (but it would be globally disabled and you might WANT to know if you're using an e-commerce site that's not properly certified)

This is the right answer. There's no SSL certificate signed to acecomments.mu.nu, so it won't be encrypted in transit. The browser is letting you know not to send anything sensitive to that page. That's all.

a number of societies have made leaps into freedom, and modern like economies, to fall again into the basic level of human experience, which is serfdom, at best, with a powerful elite controlling society for stability, but even more importantly, for their own continued power and benefit for their class. These periods of freedom in societies are an aberration of history, and the modern period is even more unusual for its 400 year run.
the current struggle is not between socialism and market capitalism, and it is not about freedom and slavery, it is about the attempt to end modern society and replace it with something controllable, stable, and will maintain the elite in control forever.
The post modernists are trying to bring about a post modern world, thinking it will be something on the line of a central American "republic" where the same people rule, and use the power of the state to make sure everyone else stays in line, but they can still buy iPhones and get Russian Caviar and play wet towel tag with interesting Italians.
They are wrong, of course. It will probably look more like Moldova.

Common knowledge here but worth repeating in these troubled times:
Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded - here and there, now and then - are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.
This is known as "bad luck"!

State and local governments have sought billions of dollars from Purdue Pharma as a way to hold the company and the family that owns it accountable for the nation's opioid epidemic, a potential payout that is now clouded in uncertainty after state attorneys general said settlement talks had broken down, while the company says talks are not over.
The attorneys general directly involved in the negotiations with the maker of OxyContin and the Sackler family said they anticipated Purdue filing soon for bankruptcy protection.

My wife is literally worse than Hitler, since she makes me smoke outside. I went out to smoke a bit ago, when I turned the light on, a light that seemed to be a flashlight, out back went off. There is nothing but acreage back there. No one should be there. I said hello, no answer. Grabbed a flashlight, didn't see anything. Turned the light off and used the night vision, nothing. Sent three dogs out, they found nothing. Just saw deer browsing, assuming whatever I think I saw is gone. I did go out and take my car keys out of my car for the first time since we moved here over 10 years ago.

I think CBD had a post about that. Some study in VT or NH showed that most of the problem was from the illegal stuff. However, a commenter asserted that it was Big Pharma and Docs that got patients addicted then cut them off. So they had no choice but to buy the illegal stuff. Go figure.

Portland has effectively decriminalized low-level narcotics dealing.
Meanwhile, they keep tightening the screws on people with a legitimate need for prescription opiates.
Victor Davis Hanson wrote about this in "Mexifornia" a decade ago - the authorities ignore criminal behavior by the poor, while constantly ramping up enforcement against the middle classes.

Yep - the example Hanson gave was that California's Central Valley increasingly has small favelas at rural intersections - shacks put up in complete violation of safety and fire codes. The cops ignore those, since the residents have no money to extract.
But God help you if you are middle class and paint your roof an unapproved color - you have the money to pay thousands in fines.

I once got suspicious somebody was hiding out in my pole shed. I heard a noise, several, that sounded like hushed whispering, and then movement.
I got my 9mm and went out with a flashlight. I wasn't sure. There are varmints that can do that.
I got about ten or so yards from the side of the shed, and shouted out, "All right, I know you're in there. If you're not out in 5 seconds, I'm gonna start shooting inside!".
I counted out loud, then shot a few times (in the ground to the side). Nothing happened, so I was satisfied no human was in there.

"ramping up enforcement on the middle classes" does not compute for me.
The assholes I prosecuted, first at the state, & then the federal level, were many things: colorful; sometimes smart, sometimes stoopid; not overly weighed down by ethical constraints; but...
"middle class" would not be a descriptor that springs readily to my mind! I think "middle class" = mental image of house with yard; family; JOB.
The white collar criminals tended, often, to be sociopaths. A disproportionately large percentage were (guess what?) immigrants.
Some of the tax cheats were middle class, I guess. But those prosecutions have to be individually approved by the IRS, & they only let you indict really egregious tax evaders.
You can go on the 'Net & come away believing that most/many offenders are middle class, but they aren't in the usual sense... my impression, anyway.

Then watched Mission of Honor a movie about polish fighter pilots in World War II group 303 kicked ass for the British. Highly recommended it was good.

Well, the mechanic's name how now been revealed in court documents, and -- yup, just as you assumed:
https://news.yahoo.com/ disgruntled-mechanic-charged-sabotaging-american-201934323.html
"...A disgruntled American Airlines mechanic was arrested and charged after he tried to damage a plane and ruin a flight.
According to a criminal complaint filed in federal court, Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani has been charged with "willfully damaging, destroying, disabling, or wrecking an aircraft, and attempting to do so." He was allegedly trying to damage the air data module system on a commercial airliner preparing to take off back in July from Miami International Airport, which had 150 people on board and was headed for the Bahamas.
That system deals with the aircraft's speed, pitch, and other important data...."
He confessed, but his really believable explanation was that he did it due to a "union dispute" so he could "get some more overtime hours" fixing the broken plane.
Uh huh.
The real question here is:
Why did American Airlines hire someone named "Abdul-Majeed Marouf Ahmed Alani" to tinker with passenger-filled airplanes just before they take off?

Nobody can chew up scenery like The Shat. The Shat is on Boris Karloff with Mrs. Howell. Mrs. Howell bought a grisly grim reaper painting. The artist hung himself upon completion. Every owner of the painting has died a violent death. As a warning, the painting bleeds from the scythe before it kills.
The Shat looks at the painting, then touches it. His eyes go wild as he looks at his fingers. He then shows his bloody hand to the others in the manner that only he, The Shat, can pull off.

Thanks, Salty! Always welcome to have visitors, too. ONly here for the balance of the month, with the objective of completing some phase of construction that will trigger a building inspection, and hence add six more months to my building permit. This will most likely be the finish plumbing and electrical in the bathroom, since the rough plumbing is in, and inspected.

Well, it's definitely coming along. My kitchen, while unfinished, is usable. Sink works, as do the lights and electrical outlets. I have a big-ass fridge to set up in it, and there is even a water line plumbed in for the ice maker. I need to get an electric range, too, but that's why there is Craigslist.
Then there is more wiring to run, and sheetrock to hang. If I don't waste my time, conceivably I could have all the items on the building permit checked off by Spring.

This will end up following the same path as gun control and gun bans.
IIRC the CDC statement a few days ago warned people about buying e-cigarettes from L'Shawn on the street corner and to avoid using any product that had been tampered with.
0.0005% of the users will do something bad/stupid, 10 people will get hurt, and the industry must be banned and or heavily regulated (all while gays continue to pass 40K HIV cases to new gays each year).
I'd imagine most states are thrilled with this, too, since it's a good excuse to get people back to buying cigarettes with their lucrative taxes.

I don't know what to make of it. It makes no sense but in this day and age that is not enough to decide whether something has staying power or not. I had a few of these fake meat alternatives and mostly they were just blah, one was ok I guess.
But the country has changed/warped so quickly, that it is difficult to know what acutally has staying power. I don't know if people will get more tatoos covering their left arm or fewer. It is simply not in my wheelhouse to predict these things. I am not comparing myself to Warren Buffett, but he was famous for ignoring high tech stocks for decades because he said he did not understand the market. Today he has bought into a few after the fact. I think that is more about politics, not that they are bad companies, but he pretty much missed the getting in on the ground level thing.
My guess is that fake meat will be around for a while. People believe cows are the enemy just like they believe coal is the enemy. They can convince themselves they like it. It is just like libs who never listened to country convincing themselves they like the Dixie Chicks.
I would not buy into the fake meat craze unless you have a really good idea. My guess is it will be not a single company that makes a killing, but whomever sells them their supplies. Or it will be the fast food joints who bring new people in but it won't be a huge difference. Beyond Meat is out there, but companies are pushing alternatives like crazy. Even today you see bogus stories on serious financial sites that claim Beyond Meat is in Burger King. No, that would be Impossible foods, and private company.

If meat is so bad, why develop "fake meat?"
Posted by: rickb223 at September 09, 2019 06:40 AM (eg609)
So many excuses. The veggies admiting people like meat is one. But the big one they claim now is that Millennialls want to be omnivores, or whatever new term them came up with that I will never use. The Millennials get's to virtue signal when they eat fake meat once in a while. To them, it is like dropping some cash in a collection jar.

[x] Muruna
Few Westerners are familiar with the Sunni Muslim Brotherhood revival of the doctrine of muruna, which literally means "stealth" or "flexibility." It is far worse than taqiyya, since it sanctions all prohibitions that block Muslim interests, even blasphemous ones. . . .
Muruna is literally accomplished by permitting behavior normally so eschewed by Sharia that Westerners logically assume a more moderate version of Islam when such prohibitions are suddenly permitted. Westerners' eyes are, in fact, deceiving them. Muruna is about going to great lengths to gain interests through a much deeper level of deception while simultaneously lowering the guard and gaining the support of the infidels.

I tried one by accident once (not sure if "soy", "veggie", or "Satan's belly-button lint"). It was on a platter with a bunch of real burgers at a large cookout, and I wasn't paying attention.
Tasted like a brick of the old-school shredded wheat (remember the big bricks?) that had been burned in a toaster.

That covers offensive to vegans, offensive to Hindus (beef) and offensive to orthodox Jews (meat and dairy together).
To round the meal out, it needs bacon (Muslims and Jews, also I think Seventh Day Adventists), and should be accompanied by coffee (Mormons), beer (Mormons, Baptists and several others), eaten on a Friday during Lent (Catholics), and topped off with a nice big cigar (Zoroastrians).
I'm not sure how to add "offensive to Buddhists". Maybe thinking about how delicious it's going to be and how much you want it.

Martin was born Dino Paul Crocetti on June 7, 1917, in Steubenville, Ohio, the son of Italian father Gaetano Alfonso Crocetti (1894-1967) and Italian-American mother Angela Crocetti (nee Barra; 1899-1966). His parents were married in 1914. His father, who was a barber, was originally from Montesilvano, Abruzzo, and his mother's origins are also believed to be from Abruzzo, although they are not clearly known.

There never will be an Article V convention, not sure why people keep pushing that. This Country is so divided even if by some miracle they all agreed to the convention, nothing would ever get done.
There is one person who can start to shut this whole thing down and bring back some sense of normalcy, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, but he refuses to even reign in his District court Judges from making National injunctions. Until he smacks them down, nothing is going to happen.
