Chi-na China's Government Is Like Something out of '1984' Everybody already knows this, which is one of the reason Coronavirus conspiracy theories are so popular. No matter how outlandish they are, if you're honest you can say “Y'know, I can see that”. Related: I stopped by the Asian market today (H Mart, which is Korean, not Chinese, but it's the best place in town to buy produce-most choices, best prices. They also sell bul-go-gi meat (thin sliced ribeye) which is great not just for Korean BBQ but also for stuff like cheese steak subs and ramen soup. I always have a couple of pounds around, frozen into 4 oz serving portions. Check it out if you have one in your town) and noticed that some – maybe 30% - of the Asian folks there were wearing masks. I don't know where they were from, it's hard to tell when they're masked. The Japanese guy running the sushi stand wasn't, and the Chinese lady running another stand had her mask draped over her ears and under her chin, but it was still the first example of any signifigant number of masked people in public that I've seen. The crazy thing is that nobody I saw was wearing a N95 mask, there were just cloth masks, many gaping open at the sides, so I had to wonder just what was the point? People do all kinds of crazy stuff, however.
PJM's Raymond Ibrahim to Speak at U.S. Army War College Despite CAIR's Howling Well it's great that he gets to speak, but he was already canceled once, which should be concerning.
Not A Joke
This Is Not McGovern’s America: Crazy Bernie Can Win It All I don't think he will, but we'd be foolish to discount the possibility. I also think that we're very, very lucky the DNC is so corrupt. If you put a gun to my head and forced me to chose who would have won Sanders v Trump if that had been the 2016 contest......with my life on the line I'd probably chose Bernie (To be clear, that he would have won. Not that I would have chosen (voted) for him in '16)
Droppin' F Bombs
For those of you that like that sort of thing. The first one is even better if you are from Maryland, it's a dead in the black parody of the ads that one Baltimore car dealer used to run back in the 80s. The second one is, I believe, an actual Dutch commercial.
Youth In Asia
Always Say Die The left is obsessed with the state murdering people - babies, adults, seniors, anyone, really – in the name of the “greater good”, yet I'm somehow the “violent extremist” for rightly condemning these practices as evil. It's a fucked up world we live in. Rat Bastards I took the test.

2 of them were worded like trick questions. I fucked up on one of them, not sure which. Something about commodity values being linked to the amount of labor involved. I wasn't sure how to answer that one, because it wasn't clear. You would think a commie would say disagree, because they want it free, but it also could have been an anti "what the market will bear" thing. I think I thought too deep onto 2 of them, that and the big words. lol

Picasso turned to cubism and surrealism because he was a fucking mediocre traditional painter and a lazy drunk.

oh, that question was like Do you think the value (price) of a product should be based on the amount of labor that went into it.
Basically implies everything should be priced on same per hour rate, rather than on what the market dictates.
So I spend 20 hours knitting a scarf, my scarf should be worth the same as a program a code monkey spent 10 hours on. Regardless of how well made scarf or program is, and whether anyone wants to buy item.

Meh. Bernie and the other Democratic candidates share the same goals - they merely disagree on tactics.
But, given how well Bernie is doing, the Operation Chaos move now is to support a non-Bernie candidate. I'd suggest Bloomberg - what we want is for Bernie to go to the convention with a plurality of the delegates, but not a majority, and then be screwed out of the nomination, since that will destroy the Democratic Party. Bloomberg is in the race to the end, and the Bernie Bros and Bernie hate Bloomberg with the heat of a thousand suns.
Disclaimer: I am the only Bloomberg supporter in the United States not being paid by the Bloomberg campaign.
I am available for bribes, however.

He gets angry way too easily in the debates. That is not a good look. I don't think he could handle a debate with Trump. Lefties talk about Trump being out of control, but he is very calm and controlled during debates and questioning by the press.
Bernie turns red and looks angry.

What I know will NOT happen is some kind of riot. They talk big and call for violence but they're packed with soy.

On October 11, 2016, SABMiller sold its stake in MillerCoors for around US$12 billion after the company was acquired by Anheuser-Busch InBev, making Molson Coors the 100 percent owner of MillerCoors.[7] In effect, MillerCoors became the "U.S. business unit of Molson Coors."[8] In Canada, Molson Coors regained the right (from SABMiller) to make and market Miller Genuine Draft and Miller Lite.[4]

I pulled out the clutch push rod and some chucklehead made it from a 12 inch 1/4" drive extension that they cut the 1/4 drive head off and shoved it in. They didn't even have the brains the cut the square socket end off with the little ball.

Can't seem to get a clean copy of the Coronavirus COVID-19 Global Cases by Johns Hopkins CSSE, but if you type this in, you get a twice daily update of active cases world wide with maps and localized infections. The lower right hand corner with Actual, Logarithmic, and Daily Cases shows when the Chi Coms had to fess up in early Feb that they had been "caught" under-reporting hence the "Cat is out of the bag" spike.

Now, earlier y'all were asking about my knee, when I had to go.
My trouble is dubbed flexion contracture, and anyone interested can read the details. Basically, because of the joint destruction, I lost range of motion (both knees), with the left being the worst. I couldn't extend the knee fully, and couldn't flex it all the way going the other way either.
If you don't use it, you lose it, and my muscles and tendons adjusted to the shorter range of motion.
Now that the bad joint is replaced, and I've got a good 'un on the left side, the goal is to overcome that flexion contracture and get my knee to fully extend (as well as fully flex the other way).
0 degree is taken as the straight knee position, and full flexion goes past 90 degrees a good ways. After the surgery, extension could only reach a minimum of 10 degrees, and that was painful. I forget what the max flexion was, but I'm doing pretty good on that, so it's not a concern.
After a little over a week of PT, we've got the extension to 6 degrees.
My hamstrings are extremely tight, and it's going to take a lot of working to get to 0. We may not get there, but they're going to try to get as close as possible.
The muscles have to be stretched as well as the tendons.

theory of value.' That the man hours you put in to creating something
dictated your compensation, not whether or not anyone wanted it. I could
spend 100 hours polishing a dog turd, but I am unlikely to get two and a
half weeks pay for it, even at minimum wage.
Posted by: Reactor Axe Man at February 28, 2020 10:23 PM (Hrs6r)
That and the theory that any voluntary exchange that results in a profit in any way is in itself exploitation.
C'mon, why should I trade my stuff for any other stuff if it isn't worth my time? And why should any one trade me back if there isn't a profit in it for them too? If we both profit, are we both exploiters? Is exploitation the cost of getting stuff I want?
Also, Marx' classes are legal definitions dependent on the state, not social classes.

My asshole dog will come(recall) very well inside. Outside is a different story. On a long lead he will recall reluctantly off lead not at all. We find ourselves letting him drag a 25ft lead outside and he will let us grab that to get him in. If he is off lead it becomes a game to him. (like catch me if you can). what can we do?

The other day the fucking asshole got up a head of steam and pulled me down the back steps. I'm still sore. If we put him on a short leash he's great. Off leash or on a long lead he's all puppy.
He goes in public well and I use him as a mobility aid. (fitted with a harness with a hard handle I use him as a walker) He will even pick stuff up for me. Self trained service dog is all I can afford.
We need to solve the recall problems pronto.

THat's a perfect description of my beagle. I got her from a rescue and she had been with a foster person who was experienced with dogs. They would only adopt her out to someone who had a fenced in yard, which I have. I think they pretty much accepted that she could not be trusted off leash, and they were experienced dog people.
If I need to get her back in quickly form the fenced in yard I let her out with the leash on, so that I can catch her.
I've just accepted it, as the rescue people did. Inside the house she follows me all over, to the point where I almost trip over her.

It takes time and rewards, like belly rubs or treats. The trick to the rewards is finding out what works for your dog. When I was a kid, my dog could have cared less about toys. I'd throw a ball and she'd just sit there looking at me as if saying, 'You threw it, you go get it'; she was only food motivated, highly food motivated.

I had a good friend who spent two days in a coma after getting hit in the head by a bird, while on a bike. Well it wasn't exactly the bird that did it; the bird knocked him woozy when it hit him in the head, and then he missed the turn he was on and went straight into a pine tree, no braking. Mercifully, he said he didn't even remember any of it; the people that found him and called the ambulance pieced together what had happened.

Mine was great off-leash. I could walk across an open field and she'd do the 'invisible leash' thing, a fifteen-twenty foot diameter circle around me. Run ahead, sniff around while I kept walking past her, then she'd trot to catch up. I never had to put a leash on her, even though she was quite good with the leash, too, never pulling and staying right by my side. But I was a kid and spent a lot of time with her, building up her trust.
I always said she didn't run away because she knew where her food came from.

The other end of that perspective is that if 22 million catch the new bug in the US and we see only half the CFR that non-backwards nations are tentatively seeing, that's 200k deaths and a couple of million hospital beds accounted for.
Local testing has (finally) started. You are going to start seeing public schools close down sporadically up and down the west coast first, and then probably in TX, with elsewhere following.
If this is managed properly, hopefully the worst we will see are a bunch of closures like that, cancelled events, some companies shut down for a few weeks, and hospitals here and there having to put up tents in their parking lots. And some extra fatalities of the sort we normally see from flu.

The Assay testing will be in the form of a nasal swab similar to current Influenza A/B site confirmation.....CDC is working this to ensure that these assays will be shipped to all regions....(including my Urgent Care) so as to test patients who present with symptoms that are concurrent with COVID-19 presentations. There are also going to be reporting protocols required to feed into a national data-base.
The USA is ON this.......please don't loose your shit just yet.

He weighed about 40 pounds, and still liked play fighting.
His paws were bigger than my hand.
We wrestled and rolled around, him play-biting me with his very big teeth.
It was great fun, tho I admit to being a bit giddy realizing how much raw power he had that he wasn't using.

We did Priest, Pantera, and Motorhead this week. And, as soon as I put on "Screaming for Vengeance" she calmed down. For hours of loud shredding.
As soon as I turned it off, to be kind to the neighbors, she started screaming again.

Since Frank Azaria has refused to do the voice for Apu in the Simpsons, the production team has asked Dinesh D'Souza to take over the voice work and help develop subplots to highlight the problems faced by immigrants to the US for future Simpson's episodes.
Word is that they will also be asking Nikki Haley to guest star from time to time as Manjula.

Can someone explain a wealth tax to me? What do you do, go into each room in your house, open your closets and drawers, and start estimating the value of your stuff? What's in your garage, your attic?
And what about investment portfolios? Do you pick a day when the Dow plunges and use that number, or do you use your birthday, or is it December 31?
Really, how would a wealth tax work?

they say that pneumonia is the beast that gets us all at the end. I didn't catch this one's name, pending some more doctor work Monday, maybe I never will, but it was close and I could feel it. Now, at least, I feel like I have a flaming log in my hands to wave at the darkness and the company of a few friends around.
typing still exhausts me....

Hey Jinx - glad to hear you are on the mend. Get well! Don't push yourself too hard at first. It takes a while.

Dave is so right about that Baltimore car dealer parody! Takes me back to my days growing up in northeast Bawlmer, Hon!
Second time I took that communism test. I got 4% both times. Not sure which answer I'm getting "wrong". I'm gonna go listen to some speeches from Ronaldus Maximus to hopefully cleanse that 4% out of me!
Happy Leap Day to all rons and ettes!

The test is wrong.
It claims that if I don't totally disagree that artists shouldn't have private property and "Copyrights", that I have some Communist beliefs.
So if you believe in Communism, you believe they should COMPLETELY AGREE they should not have Copyrights
If you are NOT a Commie, you say that you COMPLETELY DISAGREE.
The problem is: Copyrights are enforced by government, and the idea that people should be forced to pay artists for mimicking or copying versions and art forms is Communist in itself. It is based on a central enforcement mechanism for "property" that is in the public domain.
There are innumerable examples of how Communism monopolizes basic industries and ideas - heck, Communism itself basically "Copyrights" all industries.
So the test is flawed.
A true non-Communist would say that artists definitely have the right to their private property, BUT they do NOT have the right to Copyrights - aka, they do not have the right to expect the government to enforce your right to get paid.
