Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | It's A Jolly Holiday With ONTHello everyone! I always try to find a high quality photo to lead off with, but unfortunately tonight's is kinda grainy. Back The Blue? Texas Police Department Rejects Gift From Conservative Christian Company Later the same day, the police department expressed its gratitude in a separate social media post. “Sincere thanks to our friends at Patriot Mobile,” GPD wrote. “We are blessed to have their support and encouragement. Today they presented us with a certificate to host a pizza party for our staff. We are grateful for the opportunity to have a fun and relaxing meal together as a team.” The PD then deleted their thank you post and said that they were declining the gift. You know it was a handful of rabid lefties. When are we as a society going to learn to ignore the fringe elements (both left and right) as they deserve? What this country needs is a smidgen of backbone and a lot of good old fashioned fuck off. Question: “Well Mr. Fair Play, what would you think if the lunch had been donated by Daily Cute
This Is Nuts Baby among six people sliced to death by ‘glass-encrusted’ strings during blood-drenched ‘kite fighting’ festival I know that this is a longstanding local tradition, but why would you take your kids out when it's happening? People “fight” kites by coating the kite strings in ground glass, and then attempting to slice the strings of other kites. As a result you get these razor sharp cut strings flopping all over the place, and they kill people. Crazy. I mean, I like demolition derby, but I'm not going to go to one if my seats are on the floor. Seems like a good day to stay inside. The Peanut Allergy Theory Of Societal Collapse, By GP Gormogons
On Masculinity Masculinity Isn’t Toxic, Our Erasure Of It Is Yes, men should be physically strong. They should also exemplify traditional masculine virtues like courage, independence, and assertiveness. But why? Not so they can sh-tpost about how ripped or good-looking they are compared to libs, but so they can protect and defend those who are weak. That is the organizing principle behind the entire concept of manliness: it is not a style or a pose or an adornment. It is a way of being, of living according to the principle that you are responsible for the welfare of others, and should sacrifice yourself for their sake. The author goes on to state that as a gay man, he breaks fundamentally with the last paragraph, but I don't think it's necessarily so. He can be faithful to his partner, eschewing gay piss orgies and multiple meaningless hookups. He may not have kids, but as long as his sexuality is a private thing – and by that I don't mean hiding it, but keeping it a private thing as sexuality between a man and his wife is supposed to be a private thing – who cares? I have gay friends, and they are as repulsed by LBGQTRSTUVW^%#*Whatever grooming of children as I am. Although one of them did convince me to do something that I normally wouldn't: He's in the arts and he cast me in a musical. Yes, I will be appearing in a community theater production of Mary Poppins this spring. Rehearsals have started, and we're working on the ensemble parts. It's giving me S-u-p-e-r the C-a-l-i-f- worst R-a-g-i-l- earworms! I-s-t-i-c-e-x-p-i-a-l-i-d-o-c-i-o-u-s! *Sigh* At least I can spell it now. Davos Sorry, media, the great reset is real Or take the Associated Press, which had the headline: "As elites arrive in Davos, conspiracy theories thrive online." It continued, "Now, in increasingly mainstream corners of the internet and on conservative talk shows, 'The Great Reset' has become shorthand for what skeptics say is a reorganization of society, using global uncertainty as a guise to take away rights. Believers argue that measures including pandemic lockdowns and vaccine mandates are tools to consolidate power and undercut individual sovereignty." Except, that's a pretty accurate description of Schwab and the WEF's goals. Don't take my word for it — take Schwab's. In the description of his aptly titled COVID-19: The Great Reset, we're told: "COVID-19: The Great Reset is a guide for anyone who wants to understand how COVID-19 disrupted our social and economic systems, and what changes will be needed to create a more inclusive, resilient and sustainable world going forward. ... This is the purpose of this book: to shake up and to show the deficiencies which were manifest in our global system, even before COVID broke out."They are attempting to build the first empire in history without doing it militarily. Even if they succeed – and I don't think they will – it won't last long. Either China will stab them in the back and take over or the remains of the west will be overrun by the third world.

So I guess it's "old news" now, but we really need to put the blame for the MLK monstrosity in Boston where it belongs.
Everyone is blaming it on the decline of art and talentless artists - but I am certain there's more to it than that. What the artist did was try to have their leftard cake and eat it too. They had to bring in Coretta because "muh woman", because MLK is a man and that's no longer good enough - but then according to the Rules of Now, they had to strip gender from the statue completely. Look at it - there is no indication or representation of gender anywhere on the piece itself. That is why we are looking at what we are looking at.

Peanut and other food allergies are more prevalent where the gene pool is shallow.
I don't know of any food-allergic kids that come from genetically diverse parents (even if both parents are white/caucasian). This stuff is super common in the Midwest and other long-established ethnically homogenous places where you're likely to have kids with someone whose great grandparents were in the same wagon train. I remember food allergies being common where I came from where everyone was scotch-irish and whose progenitors were on the same handful of boats arriving on our shores.

Posted by: Gentlemen, this is junta manifest at January 19, 2023 10:34 PM (4b96L) Grain is not evil. But grain risen with commercial brewer's yeast and "enhanced" with superpowered chemicals in 25 minutes and then baked is not particularly digestible. For the last 4000 years grain has been fermented and risen over the course of a day before baking and consumption. That's healthy. That's good to eat. Since the 50's, not so good.

The "Food Pyramid" IS the damn problem, and is guilty of all of the accusations thereof. Any diligent research in the "follow the money" mode, will lead one to it's devious origins.
Before the "Pyramid", we had the "Four Square Food Group" plan. Meats, Vegetables, Dairy, Grains. The idea was that, through the course of a whole day, if you got relatively even portion of all four, you'd be covering your nutritional needs. And mostly, we did. The damn "Pyramid" brought in the idea that Grains should be the MOST of your intake (it occupied the entire base of the Pyramid!), with each other food being a lesser and still lesser amount. That "meats" at the top of your Pyramid? Yeah, your allocation has been increased to 20 grams from last weeks' 30 grams, peasant! We'd need gorilla sized guts to handle that much grain & vegetables.

It's been a while since I looked at this stuff, but the UK during the war was a very low fat and high grain diet. They had margarine and no butter. Pigs were illegal. Meat went to the front. (but, they also had no sugar.)
And heart health was the best it had ever been. Then post war heart disease became a major killer and that spurred a lot of the no fat, no butter, no dairy,... push. I did not buy it then and refused to ever eat margarine. Or lowfat milk. But likewise I do not think it was bought and paid for science - just bad science.

And heart health was the best it had ever been. Then post war heart disease became a major killer and that spurred a lot of the no fat, no butter, no dairy,... push.

Posted by: Gentlemen, this is junta manifest at January 19, 2023 10:59 PM (4b96L) You are correct, the rations included a pound of meat per person per month, 8 oz of sweets per person per month, etc. Vegetables and wheat bread were not rationed. But those rationed remained in place until well into the 50's. thanks to the Labour govt that was voted in because Mr. Churchill reminded them of the bad old war. I wonder if they took into consideration the extreme stress of the war years and the continued deprivation of food supplies in post war London when they were studying the effects of the diet?

The discussion about baby carrots got me thinking today about things that get made from produce considered unattractive for the produce stand.
Here are some of the places they go. Applesauce, pickle relish, minced garlic, tomato sauce, ketchup, diced tomatoes with or without chiles, Chile sauce, salsa, instant mashed potatoes, guacamole, all kinds of dips, dried onion flakes, pickled beets, canned corn, canned peas, canned any vegetable. The baby carrots do lose a lot of flavor during the process. Their skins are removed and that is where a lot of flavor is, and minerals, and to a lesser extent, toxins.

The classic rock industry is sadly hilarious. Crosby was a big, skilled figure for sure, but he fits the ideal of being a leftist, anti best abolishment selfish sort who was pretty much a criminal with money. Notice you never hear hardly anything about Roger McGuinn, who was even a more central figure in that period. Why, you ask? Because he became a born again Christian and so the music establishment doesn't really want you to think about him too much.

In 1990 the price of a loaf of store bread went to $.50 a loaf.
The government says inflation has been 1 or 2% a year at least until bidenflation. Note 2% over 30 years should still have the price of bread around 90 cents... Now looking at it the other way, bread going from 50 cents to...I'm paying about $4.50 now means inflation has AVERAGED about 8% over the last 30 years.

These famous coins were struck using an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper. Let’s jump into some numbers to find exactly how much silver these dimes contain.

How Much Silver Do These US Dimes Contain?
These famous coins were struck using an alloy of 90% silver and 10% copper. Let’s jump into some numbers to find exactly how much silver these dimes contain. Every one of these coins weighs 2.5 grams or 0.088 troy ounces. So, the pure silver content in these mentioned US 90% silver dimes comes out to approximately 0.0723 troy ounces per coin.

In and out with an ancient joke.
A man was convinced his wife was cheating on him, so one morning he pretended to go to work, then came back home unexpectedly. He didn't find the culprit in the apartment, but then he looked out the window and saw another man exiting the building several stories below, putting his tie back on. Enraged, he shoves the refrigerator out the window, killing the man on the sidewalk below. Two men arrive at the Pearly Gates. Saint Peter enquires as to their manner of death. First guy: It's the weirdest thing. I was coming out of the barber shop on the ground floor of my apartment building, putting my tie back on after brushing some hair clippings off my neck, when a refrigerator came crashing down and smashed me flat. Second guy: There I was, sitting in this refrigerator.... Posted by: Rodrigo Borgia at January 19, 2023 11:39 PM (bW8dp) 295

"They are attempting to build the first empire in history without doing it militarily."
seems accurate, though I wonder if other military victories were not proceeded by cultural degradation, perhaps caused by the type of "march through the institutions" we see in amerka.

Hunter Biden suffered blackouts from drinking and drug use while he was working with Patrick Ho, a connected Chinese businessman while he was living at the house where classified documents were discovered, according to investigative journalist, Michael Shellenberger.

He walked from 50 million, and I see no evidence of a 120 million demand. The big tech TOS is the hangup, and I agree with Crowder on that. He leveraged bans into money and subscriptions, and it's time for conservatives to find ways like that.
- I'm listening to Nick Rekieta's stream on Rumble from last night, and it sounds like the money, while not Crowder's point, was pretty bad too. Crowder apparently already makes more than that on mud club subscriptions, and the deal would have transferred that revenue stream, and merchandise, and all his old content to DW for the duration.

Jim ------- Sorry to be slow responder, was making my evening ablutions. The truth is that in anything other than a free-field, antenna characteristics are hard to model, or anticipate. Most Ham antennas are compromises that simply work well in their particular environment. I assume that the 20' number is the apex of the towers? If so, then certainly you would want to mount a Mast, or masts atop those. The possibilities are endless, but mounting multiple vertical masts in close proximity is probably a bad idea...or at least not good. Look, there are any number of good Amateur antenna manuals out there that will provide food for thought, and much more than I can offer here. Look for ARRL antenna books, and an ARRL Communications book would be good too. A wealth of info. Posted by: Mike Hammer, etc., etc. at January 20, 2023 01:29 AM (wQZYr) 424

Mike Hammer.

Jim ------ Book. There are a plethora of verticals available. Single frequency, multiband. Then, there is the possibility of stringing wire, which is cheap and easy. I'm not dodging the question, but a good antenna book will answer questions that neither of us have thought of, and is interesting to have around. Having the towers is a big, big leg up.

Manchin said that Scholz countered that the U.S. places too many penalties on European cars entering the American market. So the West Virginian pulled out his cellphone and Googled “tariff cost on autos in Germany.” In bold, the search engine’s front page excerpted the relevant part of a 2019 Deutsche Welle article: “US levies a 2.5 percent tariff on European auto imports, while the European Union imposes a 10 percent duty.”
