Those of you that still believe that government cares for you, I give you this example of why they don't. EPA to Alaskans in sub-zero temps: stop burning wood to keep warm. Champagne Lesson 5 things you should know about the champagne you'll drink tonight. For example, the bubbles are basically yeast farts.h/t NDH Dance With The Dead Pretty good sound.
Shailene Woodley, eats clay in the belief that it'll adhere to heavy metals and cleanse her body of them. Clay is "one of the most healthy things you can put into your body," she told a blogger at the website Into the Gloss. "I first heard about the benefits of eating clay from a taxi driver. He was African and was saying that where he's from the women eat clay when they're pregnant." Woodley also told New York Magazine that she constantly drinks iced tea containing a packet of "instant chaga, a mushroom-based powder." "It tastes like dirt," she said. "But I like the taste of dirt."Not sure I would call Tom Arnold a celebrity anymore, but he is breaking the law by encouraging hackers to hack into the MGM database for 'racist' Trump tapes.

Little sister called tonight. Our oldest brother (73) has bad cancer, among other problems -- mostly medical but apparently some doctor-aggravated -- with possibly just weeks to live, if that. He had problems at Thanksgiving (I didn't notice, sister did) but he hadn't known the extent of them.
Sister is flying in tomorrow to drive Mom (96) up to Kansas to see him. I won't be going, because I have raging contagious flu.
Brother has had a long and interesting life, not always easy, including being one of the earliest polio victims cured. He just announced at Thanksgiving that he and his long-time girlfriend were married. That announcement has a different color now, of course.
A prayer for his peace, and also for our mother's, would not be unwelcome.
And, yes, cancer sucks.

My parents smoked 2packs/day forever so I never had the desire, thank goodness. However, I know a few who have done vapor thing successfully.

The Barrel is the place to which those who commit crimes against the blog are banished. These crimes are principally failing to close bold or italic tags and causing the formatting to ruin the next several posts.
Adventurous crimes include copying from MS Word, which ruins a lot of things. The best blog offenders manage to copy an entire thread and repost it in a single post. (This is most hilarious when the thread is over 200 posts long).
The punishment for blog offenses is being sent to the Barrel in order to feel shame and also contend with much ick, bitey things, sexual misuse, and an aesthetically unpleasing experience.

2016 was probably the worst year I've had since I lost my Mom almost six years ago. Lots of emotional stuff, some not so good work stuff, but no bad health stuff. So it could be worse.
Quitting smoking is the best thing you could ever do for yourself and the people who love you.

St Gwyneth is the one who thought her role was equal to Iron Man in the movies and she deserved the same pay.
And perhaps not by chance, she was also left out of the second Avengers film and Captain America: Civil War (really Avengers 3) when a scene or two of her might have actually worked...but nope, she was gone.
Not that she would have been able to even stand in the shadow of Brian Dennehey who turned in the masterful performance as the Civil War in the film.

One of my favorite Onion articles was on the man who had lost all hope only to be crushed when finding out the losing of all hope was actually a form of hope, and so he hadn't.
Then The Onion moved to NY, became a solidly lefty shill and maybe died? Not sure, haven't cared in over a decade.

Now passing the reviewing stand, I don't know these people. Anyone in the booth? The program says "Ace of Spades HQ Blog Kazoo and Harmonica Marching Mand", but they don't seem to be marching, and it isn't much of a formation. Can't tell what they are playing but you have to admire their enthusiasm, especially the kazoo section. They are playing their hearts out.
Are they really in the parade? or have they infiltrated the event? Anyone know.
Wait, here comes security now. It looks like the band is forming up into a symbol.. wait... ok, no, we can't show you that on camera. Security is trying to get control off... there is fire! There is fire coming from the bagpipe sections, look out.... oh the humanity people are on fire!
What? Fire eaters? Spitting flaming vodka? Seriously? The flames have driven security back. Now the have unfurled a pirate flag. Who are these people?
Wait, they are getting out crossbows and longbows, and are starting to skuffle amongst themselves.
I heard one of them yell "Shit just got real."
Wait, I just heard another one yell:
IT'S FUNNY BECAUSE THINGS WERE ALREADY GETTING OUT OF HAND!
"Some of them seem to have donned Confederate uniforms, while others are wearing Union blue."
One of them just shouted 'Messenger Bags are gayer than Crocs' for some reason.
Another just yelled in response:
"I saw Messenger Bags open for the Green Crocs at the Pink Flamingo in 1986!"
'All the while there's a lone, naked, fat man sitting on a White Ottoman to the very left of the stage.
Is his inclusion symbolic?
Your guess is as good as mine, Bill.'
Wait, standing next to the man on the ottoman is another man... is he dressed as a dildo?! Orange, with jagged brown stripes across the front? What the f*ck is that!?!
I got nothing, Bill.
"Wait now someone is walking around passing out pudding cups. And they're all opening them, but I don't see any spoons. What are they...
Oh, God no. Cut to commercial! Cut to commercial!"
Now... they are setting fire to a skull (what did they cover it with?) and another is dressed like a robot and he is humping the air!
It's a complete madhouse down here. We need to get the national guard down here!

When the moon was formed, it was only about 22,000 miles from earth. Earth's rotation about it's axis back then, took only six hours. So...at some point in the misty, damp, moist, dank, humid, oppressive, steamy, pre-pubescent Vic past, while the length of the earth's day, and the average distance of the moon increased, there should, for a few million years anyway, been a period of time where the moon was in a geosynchronous orbit around earth.

Amen. It's a weird thing. If you're looking for work, you're questioning whether you're valuable -- if you were valuable, wouldn't the first interviewer who set eyes on you snap you up? But mostly they don't. Then you get employed, and your evaluation of your worth is in fine shape because your worth is self-evident, and you're desperate to find some additional competent people to hire, and they seem really hard to find.
Weird. It seems to go to the very heart of how our egos work.

It would be pretty cool, really: there'd be much less tide, just a permanent high tide under the Moon (and on the opposite side).
One interesting paradox is that you'd never see a full Moon in the sky. At sunset (as seen from the point directly below it on Earth) it would be a half Moon, then three-quarters, but then it would blink out as it entered Earth's shadow. It would leave the shadow past full, then shrink down to half at dawn. Then during the day it would dwindle to a new Moon, and there would be a daily eclipse at noon.

45 in Santa Paula where I live. Cold enough that I don't feel like going outside. And if I was in Colorado Springs I would not be outside smoking a cigar. Or I'd be downtown at my normal haunt, which has a heated outdoor patio.

It's a blog that went as sour as it's possible for a blog to go (sorry, Andrew Sullivan, you get the silver). Better not to spell its name out here, nor ever mention the full name of its proprietor (if it's still going, haven't checked in years), he used to love to track that sort of thing. But Google should be able to sort this out for you.
For the record: read it for years before the ensouring, probably signed up for an account, never posted anything with it.

There once was a music and news blog that became a War On Terror blog after 9/11, and was quite popular and got some news coverage and stuff.
At some point, the guy running it got into a tiff with some of his anti-jihad allies, especially in Europe, and it took the form of a kind of anti-Christian thing at first, and then calling people proto-Nazis, and then banning most of the people on his blog, and then preaching to the few remaining about how "the right" was all crazy and evil.
Odd time.
A number of the refugees landed here, or had already been here for a while.

Posted by: Libertarianwannabe at December 31, 2016 11:39 PM (nQ10o)
Long ago and far away, there was a blogger who played bass, had a ponytail, rode bicycles, and took pictures of oil rigs. With a pedigree like that, it was somewhat startling that he noted that Islamic jihadists were a clear and present danger to anything approaching civilization -- but, such was the obviousness of this point and the complete stonewall among the MSM and other blogs, his blog became extremely popular.
The blog was named Large Grey Filaments, thus "LGF".
Around the time that pjmedia was founded, the blogger seemed to have some sort of a stroke and completely changed personalities. Things that he would have highlighted six months previous got buried; things he would have rightfully scoffed-at six months ago got put on the front page. Where it had been a free-for-all in the comments, people were being banned right-and-left if they failed to completely agree with the blogger's new position, even if it completely contradicted the blogger's old position of a minute-or-two before.
This led, inevitably, to the great LGF diaspora.

Chuckles used to post my comments from Hotair all the time. He had some weird "This Week at Hotair" post where he would choke at the unreasonable hate and evil that was being bandied about in the Hotair comments. He didn't pick my best comments, but I did like the ones he chose. That was back when that trout character was coming to hotair to post stuff and then Chuckles would bitch about that, too. Hotair folded like a cheap suit to that stuff.

Anyway, funny in Teh Donald sort of way - mentioning "losers" and his defeated opponents. Kinda wish he'd kept it totally positive (with very subtle snark), but whatever.
Twitter is a forum appropriate to the (liliputian) stature of his predecessor, more than him, but at least under Trump there are certain to be some hilarious moments there.

I was an expert at kiting checks in my younger, poorer days. My bank was in DC and I found out that for some reason it took a full 5 days for them to process checks I wrote to stores in Northern Virginia - so I'd drive from DC to the Giant supermarket in Alexandra to get groceries if both pantry and bank account were bare.
Never once bounced a check.

Nah, I can see them being used as an ingredient, like butter in baking, where you want to have the *right* amount of salt every time.
It should be *clearly* marked, though, so you don't make that mistake.
Unsalted butter costs the same as salted butter. Salt costs less by weight than butter. Why buy the adulterated product? Buy unsalted butter and add salt to taste -- you'll save money.

I don't think I'd save money re-churning and re-packaging the butter - then again, I use butter for things other than baking.
Slightly less so butter than say canned goods or meat - but still, adding your own salt later simply doesn't have the same result.

Butter can certainly go rancid. Salt delays that, but it doesn't render it impossible. So you smell your butter if you're in doubt. It's not like rancid butter is hard to detect. Mostly it only happens if I forget about butter for a while (long story) or fail to respond to the onset of warm weather by making use of my refrigerator. NBD.

Posted by: joncelli, Longbow Afficianado and Phalangist at January 01, 2017 12:20 AM (1FhAQ) fnord (1FhAQ)
Nah, I can see them being used as an ingredient, like butter in
baking, where you want to have the *right* amount of salt every time.
It should be *clearly* marked, though, so you don't make that mistake.
Unsalted butter costs the same as salted butter. Salt costs less
by weight than butter. Why buy the adulterated product? Buy unsalted
butter and add salt to taste -- you'll save money.
Posted by: cthulhu at January 01, 2017 12:27 AM (EzgxV) fnord (EzgxV)
I don't think I'd save money re-churning and re-packaging the butter - then again, I use butter for things other than baking.
Slightly less so butter than say canned goods or meat - but still,
adding your own salt later simply doesn't have the same result.
Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at January 01, 2017 12:40 AM (wB8Tg)
You don't have to re-churn it -- and you get to choose where the salt ends up. If you want toast with the salt throughout the toast, put the salt on the bread side of the butter; if you want to taste the natural sweetness of the butter in the bread with a tang of salt, put the salt on top of the butter; if you want horrible gastric symptoms that make you wish you were dead, forget to use gluten-free bread.

Tom Hiddleston plays Loki in the Marvel movies. And he's become very popular with the ladies as a result. He also appears to have lots of fun with the role, which helps.
I only know of Tom Holland because he was in the last Batman movie. I think he's been in other stuff, but I don't know what off the top of my head.

YMMV? Yikes, that gluten sensitivity thing must suck. After leaving the NE, I had a long quest to find an edible rye bread that ended only when I found Acme's New York Rye. If I'd added restrictions, I might be still searching.
Say, it's the New Year, so I will share my recipe for my perfect Breakfast sandwich.
Two slices Acme New York Rye, or your closest local substitute.
Really good butter, like Kerrigold Unsalted
Really good sliced ham, like Fra'Mani Rosemary ham
Two really good eggs, like you'd get from someone local who has chickens.
A good lilvely mustard. I like that one made from spent beer brewing grains whose name I forget.
Toast Rye Bread. Butter heavily.
Fry eggs over easy or medium, your choice. Season with salt and pepper
Fry ham in butter, adding thin slices of emmenthaler in two layers to cover; cover pan and let melt.
Put some ham/cheese on each buttered bread piece. Spread one side gently with mustard. Add fried eggs from pan.
Combine the slices to make sandwich and eat. It will be messy, more or less depending on whether you cooked the yolks, but either way, it will be wonderful.

I can see how that data could be valuable. Perhaps an academic skilled in analyzing data could apply for a government grant and tell us what could be learned by studying our search behavior.

The decision sides with Texas, seven other states and three Christian-affiliated healthcare groups challenging a rule that, according to the judge, defines sex bias to include "discrimination on the basis of gender identity and termination of pregnancy."

I tell people I'll just manage my own food, but most people tie in food and socializing so tightly that they'd rather just not invite you than have you there and not eating.
I'd rather see friends and not eat than eat and not see friends, but the latter is more likely to happen.

Pretty nearly me, except for garlic.
I can cook very, very, very, very, very finely diced onion down into a soup or sauce. To the point where it dissolves. Then it doesn't bother me.
The crunchy cell-walls that give a plant the ability to remain upright, aka: cellulose. That's the problem.
Long as I cook it down into nothingness, it's less of a problem.
Garlic powder? Not a problem.
I can cut onions all day long, never shed a tear. Want 'em sautéed? Not a problem.
Want me to eat 'em?

Probably newer than yours.
Second-gen RX-7 with a lot of customization.
All the specialists here moved to the Bay Area and towing is expensive (even with AAA+).
The car sat for a while, and these things run hot and tend to fry electronics in the engine bay.
I might have to sell it, in which case running is pretty essential - not worth much but some of the parts are.
Would rather keep it, if I could fix it. Can't do the work myself because of the heart problem

There I was, happily munching from a bag of raw almonds while looking for some recipe..when up pops a formula for Chipotle Honey Roasted Almonds. Had to try it. Here's the result:
Pop one into your mouth and begin to chew, the first taste is toasted almond, a little smoky, sweet and salty. When you are just about finished chewing, there's a pop of heat at the end. Makes you think, hmmm, that was interesting, lemme try it again. Pop in another. Same result. The sensation's addictive. Interesting thing is, the heat always appears last, never overwhelms, never gets any more intense.
I'm thinking I'll be buying almonds year round and fixing them this way.
Happy New Year all you Morons. Thank you for teh funneh, the insights, and for remembering those who are no longer here. A toast to you all....and back to mostly lurking.

Celiac disease (gluten) intermittently causes milk sensitivity, though usually not to butter or hard cheeses. It can catch you off guard. Cheese is like at the center of my happy food circle.
When I found out about this, it was a nightmare. No one told me Quaker Oats was basically processed with wheat and cross-contaminated. Welches' Grape Soda had wheat in it (WTF), no longer. Doritos also removed wheat from Nacho Cheese Doritos, which is nice, but the new Prego canned sauce has wheat flour in it.
Especially since I'm *also* allergic to one of the gluten-grain substitutes, I *always* have to check labels on *everything*, including gluten-free stuff.

Food development can get a bit crazy. Also, I am not sure what the threshold for triggering an issue with celiac is, but if an ingredient is less than 2% of the total make up, it does not need to be listed on the ingredients- the only exception there is with one of the 'big 8' allergens.

I find it best to have a range of powdered peppers to play with, so you can blend them for your specific application. The ones I regularly use are pasilla, paprika, california, de arbol, hot new mexico, cayenne, and chipotle. Of these, chipotle is the one that is farthest from "playing nice" with other flavors.
Incidentally, pasilla pulls any type of soup to 'warm and earthy' without admitting to being a chili. As an example, it is a nice stealth enhancement to an English-style beef-and-barley soup.

Yeah I've done SCCA meets where I didn't even get to drive.
For some years in the 90s, the top ranks in some classes were *all* Corvettes and RX-7s. You see more stuff like Elises and Porsches.
But in some classes, the RX-7 is still there. About a year ago someone in SCCA said something like "the standard answer to what the best car to run in SCCA (local levels) is the Miata - except when it's the RX-7."
It also depends on cost and maintenance and that a lot of RX-7s can't really qualify for stock classes because a lot of the turbo control system on 3rd gens is often replaced, and the 2nd gens can be a nightmare to smog (in CA, anyway).
Partly because you pretty much have to tell the tech where *everything* is.

Chipotle, yeah, it's not just smoked Jalapeno, there's vinegar or something in there. It's awesome in the right application, but not something to substitute for other peppers. I have a Texas chile recipe (ground beef, so purists might not approve) in which those canned Chipotles with Adobo sauce are just right.
And I agree, Habeneros are too fruity, I don't use them, except for Habenero sauce in the chicken wing sauce. My perfect flavor pepper is Serrano, but the Thai peppers are about perfect too, if you can deal with their heat. For Chinese, those Tsien Tsen dried peppers are great, but I throw one or two dried Thai peppers in there too, for heat. Cayenne I reserve for NO cooking, or random blasts of heat from the powder.

The Euro-standard is 200 Parts-per-million, but a lot of research indicates that's several times too high. Some tests show damage as low as 6ppm.

Part of the problem is that it's not *one* condition, it's several lumped together, and some of them have other triggers and symptoms.

A friend and I are working on a business concept, so I drove down to a hot sauce convention in Louisiana this year. I tasted hot sauce for work for 7 years, so not much gets to me. Nothing there really lit me up- until I came to the "Angry Irishman" booth and tasted his "Why?" sauce.
That stuff was hot, not the hottest I have ever tasted (that goes to a concoction an R&D guy was working on at my last job for use in chili) but it was pretty well up there. It was a combination of Naga Jolokia, Trinidad Scorpion, and Carolina Reaper.

The RX-8 (Renesis rotary engine) was officially a Phase II Low Emissions Vehicle.
I don't know if that means the problem was solved, but as big a problem as the fact that earlier motors burn a lot of gas (and thus produce more emissions) is the fact that, despite the design's simplicity, mechanics get *so* lost.
It would be nice to see more, but even the Renesis got poor mileage compared to competitors, and didn't cost less. And the new turbo fours have pretty good power and more torque. I think they lost in the market honestly (though the market is not as well-informed as theory would prefer).
On the other hand, I saw a four-rotor (2.6l) with almost 1700 horsepower, so there's that.

A lot of the swaps seem to be older Miata engines, probably for the same reason a lot of RX-7 V8 swaps use iron blocks - effers are penny-pinchers!
It was funny cruising the forums for both RX-7 and Stealth drivers. The RX-7 people (especially 1st and 2nd gen) would be like "how can I do this with spit and bailing wire?"
The Stealth guys (and to a lesser extend 3rd gen RX owners) were like "hey, I just had a carbon-fiber replacement made for the entire rear substructure to save weight!"

Depends on the Dave's Insanity sauce it was. He makes really hot stuff. However, he is all over the scoville range. IIRC, his Dave's Private reserve was in the 1-2 Million SHU range (for comparison, Frank's hot sauce you get at the grocery can run from 800-1200.)

I'm not even sure that's the record. Saw a dyno slip for a 1.3L that was 1077 hp.
And it's believable, though that would not be a very driveable motor. I've seen 800hp 1.3L daily drivers.

I believe AOP was speaking of stuffed fresh (green) chiles, which could be labeled with either of the above names (at least I have seen this pattern in both anglo and Mexican grocery chains in SoCal).
There is a dried pasilla - not sure if it's the same chile, but that is the one ctuhuluhwu is referring to (I think) when talking about seasoning stew. It is one of the three "trinity" of chiles in the classic mole poblano (pasilla, mulato, ancho).
There's a bit of fluidity and confusion in fresh/dried chile names for Mexican varieties - used to know the main ones but clearly have not been cooking enough real Mexican sauces (intend to do so in 2017). My mole poblano I used to make in the 80s/90s was so good, I'd have friends and work colleagues regularly ask about the next time I was going to make it.

Which about makes my point. None of them bread and butter cars. Possibly some of the Japanese pickups?
I will measure up the Spit engine, and its compartment. Maybe the answer will be a four-banger from a front-driver, coupled to a suitable aluminum five-speed box. Buddy isn't looking for awesome horsepower, just a reliable engine that can cope with modern shitty fuel, and that basically means fuel injection.
I'd be tempted to try a VW Golf/Audi Fox 1600 with the old mechanical fuel injection. Those things were nearly bulletproof.

I see that you replied, but it dumped your email into the "important" folder, so it took a minute to find...
I can see that you replied via the preview, but when I open that email, all I see is what I sent you!
Maybe resend without replying to my original? Just send me a test? With the pic?

Me too. I use it for work stuff, since apparently "they" have decided that it's respectable or acceptable or something. My main email is yahoo because Mr. D had yahoo and all of his website stuff is tied to that account.

This may or may not be of any help, but...
Last month I totaled my trusty '96 Mazda MX-6, daily ride for 15+ years. The engine is a fuel-injected 5-speed and is intact except for the radiator, which overheated and blew as I sat on the shoulder of the road after the wreck. It's got 248K on it, but has never leaked a drop of oil. I can't afford to put the money into it for the body work it would take to fix, but would love to find someone who could use what's left. It's got a lot of newer stuff on it..

Note (possibly even accurate): "pasilla" and "poblano" are names both
applied to the large/medium sized, fresh green chile - with the squared
shoulder shape (sort of like a dradel), which are typically used for
stuffing (chile relleno).
I believe AOP was speaking of stuffed fresh (green) chiles, which
could be labeled with either of the above names (at least I have seen
this pattern in both anglo and Mexican grocery chains in SoCal).
There is a dried pasilla - not sure if it's the same chile, but that
is the one ctuhuluhwu is referring to (I think) when talking about
seasoning stew. It is one of the three "trinity" of chiles in the
classic mole poblano (pasilla, mulato, ancho).
There's a bit of fluidity and confusion in fresh/dried chile names
for Mexican varieties - used to know the main ones but clearly have not
been cooking enough real Mexican sauces (intend to do so in 2017). My
mole poblano I used to make in the 80s/90s was so good, I'd have friends
and work colleagues regularly ask about the next time I was going to
make it.
Posted by: rhomboid at January 01, 2017 02:30 AM (QDnY+)
The pasilla is sometimes known as the ancho poblano. It's confusing.

I would be concerned about the state of the engine if it overheated and blew the radiator. Did the cooling fans get destroyed in the wreck?

The same idea had crossed my mind. We in North America are being screwed out of a lot of fine Diesel-powered vehicles. Go to Central America. Nearly everything on the road is Diesel. Nissan, Toyota, Mazda, Mahindra, and some Chinese models, too.
My sister's car in Nicaragua is a 2000 Toyota 4Runner with a 3-liter 4 cylinder turbo-diesel. That sucker really puts out. I drove it quite a bit last year.

Thanks Chi. Yep, it was a dual lottery. We took care of each other, but I think that was the hardest part of being without him - missing that "feeling taken care of" part. Many's the time I told him that if we were on the run through the woods with only the clothes on our backs, I would have everything - him.

Just depends on what the definition of a hill is. Illinois is not totally flat where I am at. You have the Illinois River Valley and where I live now there is the Kickapoo Valley.
Now across the river there is a Valley in a Valley. The Mackinaw River Valley.
So if you are at the bottom of the Valley in the Valley, you can only go up.
Is that a hill?
