San Francisco Walgreens Temporarily Shuts Due To ‘Severe Rat Infestation’
Los Angeles is #2 in Orkin’s 2021 list of “Rattiest Cities” while Sacramento moves up several notches.

California has a rat problem, and I am not referring to politicians.

For example, after years of allowing the homeless to dominate its streets, a San Francisco Walgreens is being temporarily closed to deal with a “severe rat infestation.”

The Walgreens in question, which is in the city’s Noe Valley neighborhood, will not be allowed to reopen until it manages to pass a health inspection, according to a San Francisco Department of Public Health report first noted by SFGate.

They’ve been on the water ever since, now only taking a trip to land for supplies once a month.

Taryn, a 32-year-old ex yoga teacher from Vancouver Island, Canada, said: ‘We first started dreaming of the boat life when we were in Ireland.

We need more adventurers and fewer Twitter addicts.

55 The Polish government has congratulated its officers deployed on the EU's Eastern frontier after they repelled the "first wave" of migrants who threw rocks and allegedly even "stun grenades" in an attempt to breach the border Tuesday morning.

Knock on wood, but it looks like the Poles are winning.

In response to EU sanctions over Belarus' forcing down an Irish jet, Lukashenko openly threatened to open his borders and let drugs and "migrants" into the EU unmolested.

"Tour agencies" in the Middle East suddenly started offering package tours to beautiful Belarus, and Belarus handed out thousands of tourist visas to young Middle Eastern men of military age.

Lukashenko's calculation was that the Poles would cave - after all, the "migrants" didn't want to stay in Poland, but wanted to go to Germany and points west. He wasn't expecting Poland's response that they would not admit a single illegal migrant.

BTW, Russia has protested Poland's use of tear gas and water cannons. After all, Russia would never, ever use violence against foreigners.

Who the fu*k do these school board people think they are? There are pathetic people who, if you give them any kind of job title at all, let it go to their heads. I hate to admit it, but I'm not surprised that it is a woman.

One the one hand, you need to sell the idea that the vaccines are great in order to get MOAR vaccinated, yet on the other, you've got to sell to those already jabbed, that the effectiveness is no good, and they need a booster (and likely more than just one).

The "pandemic of the unvaccinated" line doesn't work too well for the latter. So the Kraut equivalent of Dr. Fauxci is changing tune on that line, saying, it's no longer a pandemic of the unvaxxed, it's "just a pandemic".

76 Today on the local "centrist" radio news station which I usually avoid except I wanted to see if I could get a quick read on how they were covering the trial ("the man who killed two people at a protest" was the descriptor they used) and they said "20% of the state is still not vaccinated which raises fears that the state can't reach herd immunity" . I am not a medical stuff fan and pay very little attention to that field, but that's totally not how that works. Even I knew that ages ago.

116 I've got a place a 15 miles from the Sacramento Capitol Building so so community.

I had a rat war that went on for a few years inside the castle walls. Once a pex water pipe was gnawed through and threatened to bring down the living room ceiling. They ate a whole bag of grass seed. Gnawed a hole through the sheet rock. Vile nasty like Democrats.

Patient use of Decon and Victor snap traps finally got them all dead inside the house.

I have a champion orange tree and a public park nearby so really can't expect to ever have zero rats. A friend enjoys sitting in his lawn chair bagging them with a flashlight and pellet pistol.

Think about this. The game is up now. This is how our entire justice system works.

We really should just open up the prisons. I am sure that most of the people who are in there should be there. But I am also sure that they got put there by a system that lied and cheated to do it.

There is no scenario with an efficacious vaccine whereby you have 60 pct of your adult population "vaccinated" and 40 million recovered Covid patients and you have more deaths and cases than you did before the vaccine.

Which is the scenario we have now.

Indeed, I would not call a vaccine whose relative efficacy for symptomatic infection drops to zero after 240 days, and then turns negative after that "working well".

Efficacy for "severe disease and death" remains above zero, but is still declining. IIRC, it's only 30% tops at that 240 day mark. And it peaks the least and declines the most in the most high-risk cohorts, those who need protection the most.

So for the same job as the co-head she was paid less.

Just so we are not mistaken, I'm not claiming the vaccine works well. In fact, I don't think it's a vaccine at all. I think it's gene therapy. And overall, I think it's gene therapy that actually exacerbates the pandemic by creating ADE, as most of its mRNA predecessors have, thus the reason for mothballing them.

What I am saying, though, is it's not a contradictory message to people to say to them that the vaccine will keep you safe for six months at a time. That's not illogical.

271 is a vaccine that the officials admit doesn't stop you from getting it or transmitting it. It just blows my mind and makes me look at strangers wondering what exactly goes around in those heads.

They still believe the clot shot stops you from getting wu flu, because the FNM was saying that for a long time.

It amazes me the level of ignorance of these damn experimental jabs. I've asked a few jabbed LIVs why they chose the shot they got - Pfizer, JJ, Moderna. "Uh, what?" is the response I get back. They don't even know their are fundamental differences in them.

Often the same people have strongly held opinions on who the best sportsball player is, what the best phone maker is, or hell whether a hot dog is a sandwich or not.

I'm not lawyer, but my reading on the case law for this stuff is they literally aren't allowed to deny you because your belief system is weird. They've got two ways to deny you;

1) If they can make a case you really don't want the shot for other reasons. So do NOT talk about how the Clot Shot doesn't work, is dangerous, whatever. Be clear you won't take it because it is the literal Mark of the Beast.

2) If it would be too much of a hardship for them to allow you to opt out. This is all bullshit, and it depends on your working environment...but this is the angle I believe most evil HR groups will use.

That's where it ends. Now they either fire you or retain you.

Any other information they gather is just statements that can be used to defend themselves in the case of a lawsuit should they opt to fire you. Those questions should be directed to your legal counsel. You do not have to provide your employer with "proof" of your religious convictions.

PNW storm chaos I presume. What part of the Puget region, presuming again). I have been following the news and this latest one looks to be particularly nasty. The last nasty one I lived through (I think it was Nov-Dec 2006) took out power for a week or so and for extra credit flooded my downstairs because the previous owner punch a post hole auger through the drain tile some years earlier. This was not the first surprise that idiot left me. Thankfully I got the last generator and pump from the Redmond Home Depot. It was a most interesting time. Stay safe. Stay warm. Stay Dry.

333 Has the Rittenhouse jury been sent to the jury room to decide Kyle's fate yet?

They are deliberating (over for today), apparently in a jury room within earshot of a left-wing mob massed right on the courthouse steps.

The jury is not sequestered, so they also know that several hundred members of the Wisconsin National Guard have been mobilized to await the verdict.

All part of making sure they vote the right way.

Bonus points if they are getting anyonomous threatening phone calls this evening.

Another big poll coming out tomorrow showing historic generic ballot lead for Republicans.

A major component of the lead is a big shift in the latino community, highlighted by the guy who made a party switch in south Texas. The Democrats are getting close to losing a voting block they spent a generation, and countless political capital, to build.

347 Ace's earlier post about the Kenosha authorities magically locating the guy that tired to kick KR's head in was not at all surprising. Actually it is somewhat brazen considering the jury just went into deliberations. Proper form says one should wait a few months after the verdict. And then there is the equally magically delayed Ziminski trial until next year. You would be exactly correct to think I didn't buy for a second that the Kenosha assholes didn't know who did the drop kick months ago and that the Ziminski trial delay was equally willful.

Deadmen tell no tales but those the prosecution wants to tell and the live men can't tell the wrong tales when they are lost in the bureaucracy. These reeks of corruption.

I share your skepticism, and have for many years. I do not get it. So you are trading coal generated electricity/power, for gasoline generated power. Takes 5 minutes to refill gasoline, versus 5 hours or more with electric.
I read an article yesterday how China is struggling with old batteries. Very toxic to the environment.
I wonder often if the enthusiasm gap has to do with our country being so large compared with Europe, for example. Where things, like trains/electric cars, make sense there, but here, not so much. I can see someone in England or Italy having an electric. But can not understand it here.
Seems like instead of worrying once a week about filling up, you are worrying every day, like with your phone, about connecting.

One trick they play is define fully vaccinated as only 2 weeks after the last dose. Anyone before that is defined as "unvaccinated".

Guess what? If you define "vaccinated" as being after you got the first shot, and look at all-cause hospital admissions, you find the jabbed are 9 times as likely to be hospitalized for any reason than the un-jabbed.

Well, three new ones. Which is all I have. Standard pistons are basically just whatever NOS can be scrounged up. New pistons start at .020 oversize. So, I will choose the three least-worn of the old ones. Since the old ones were not all from a matched set, they have different degrees of wear.

One possible kludge would be to use a rail off an old oil ring as a spacer to fit a new top ring to its groove. They used to sell ring sets with spacers like that.

With a full charge and a full 13 gallon tank I have 540 mile range. Awesome road trip car, because I can go 10-12 hours with one fill up. I'm not interested in a Tesla or full electric car because you have to install the special plug, and if a family emergency pops up, you can't drive across a couple of states without worrying about long stops, or finding charging stations in convenient locations.

396 Well, three new ones. Which is all I have. Standard pistons are basically just whatever NOS can be scrounged up. New pistons start at .020 oversize. So, I will choose the three least-worn of the old ones. Since the old ones were not all from a matched set, they have different degrees of wear.

One possible kludge would be to use a rail off an old oil ring as a spacer to fit a new top ring to its groove. They used to sell ring sets with spacers like that.

Damn, the grooves are worn that bad?

On one piston, #6, they sure are. You could probably slip an .025 feeler gage between the top ring and the land. Rings weren't broken, though. But mighty shiny. But on all the pistons, it looks like the oil rings just lost all tension; they move freely in the groove, but are the same diameter as the pistons themselves, three inches point ought.

Yup. I guess. Just seems stressful. You want to visit a friend out of town, or drive to a business meeting. Or go skiing in Tahoe. You have to worry about how you are going to recharge.

Right up on the Ford pick up hybrid was pretty good the main complaint was going from gas to electric was clunky.

They need to do like trains and forget the battery.

there is a dude on ebay that sells sets of new pistons for $270, somewhere around there. No clue where they are from, could be hut #43 on the edge of a rice paddy somewhere. It might be worth looking into for shits and giggles.

408 The Lark has a 170 cubic inch OHV six in it. It's a Studebaker engine, but from a '63 Lark. My car should have had a flathead six in it. The OHV six was notorious for cracked heads, but mine is uncracked. They are a small bore (3") and long stroke, so wear out rings and pistons fairly early in their life.

I looked on Otto Engine Works website. They have an article on "saving" worn pistons by machining ring grooves wider, and inserting spacers above the compression rings. They even suggested that one can use oil ring rails for this purpose. Spacers go on top of the rings.

Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at November 17, 2021 01:00 AM (P3gRi)

409 My best guess at this moment: the three new pistons, for sure. Two of the old ones may be useable as-is. That gives me four to play with for machining out the ring grooves to accept the ring plus spacer. Friend here has a lathe...

4 inch stroke on that sucker, huh? Yeah definitely got some piston speed happening there. The ebay dude has sets of new pistons for $272. I believe they are standard bore, but you already have 3, so I guess it would kinda suck to get 6 more. Still, might be kinda nice to plug and play.

417 I looked on eBay, could not find any sets of 170 standard pistons. Pistosn from the flathead are the right bore size, but compression height is too low.

Then you have to also replace brakes, transmission, rear axle drive shaft, and probably springs.

A 4.3 Chevy V6 would make a respectable swap.
