The data suggests that politicians and public health officials are wildly overreacting to the delta variant’s effect on the already vaccinated. New York Times: Here’s one way to think about a one-in-10,000 daily chance: It would take more than three months for the combined risk to reach just 1 percent. “There’s been a lot of miscommunication about what the risks really are to vaccinated people, and how vaccinated people should be thinking about their lives,” as Dr. Ashish Jha of Brown University told my colleague Tara Parker-Pope. Of course, this study will be largely ignored by politicians. They will go on pretending that vaccinated people can contract COVID-19 almost as easily as the unvaccinated. Of course it makes politicians feel better. Because "we did something". Although it won't change human nature or the Religion of Pieces.

But the name of the game is be hit and hit back - Warren Zevon Five days after being hurt in a boxing ring in Canada, boxer Jeanette Zacarias Zapata has died. Groupe Yvon Michel, the organizer of the Montreal event, announced on Thursday that Zapata, 18, died from injuries sustained in a fight with Marie-Pier Houle on Saturday night at IGA stadium. It isn't only the elderly that are disposable, it is the unborn as well. Doctors at a hospital in Birmingham mistakenly terminated a healthy unborn baby in a procedure instead of its sickly twin. The unidentified mother decided to abort one of the fetuses because it was suffering from restrictive growth, which increases the chances of stillbirth and puts the healthy baby at risk. During the procedure at Birmingham Women's and Children's NHS Foundation, surgeons accidentally terminated the wrong twin. The 2019 incident emerged in a Freedom of Information Act survey of hospital blunders. There are more than two million safety incidents reported in the NHS every year, with more than 10,000 of those resulting in severe harm and death. New Bishop Sycamore Football Coach Admits “We Are Not a School” For those who still care about the NFL, Tom Bradys spouts off about a new rule change in the NFL. In a recent interview with the Tampa Bay Times, Tom Brady reiterated his belief that the NFL’s new policy on jersey numbers is going to make it more difficult for him to win his eighth Super Bowl. The 44-year-old complained back in April when the NFL changed its rules about numbers to allow quarterbacks, punters and place-kickers to wear numbers 1-19, defensive backs 1-49, offensive linemen 50-79, defensive linemen 50-79 and 90-99, linebackers 1-59 and 90-99, and running backs, tight ends and wide receivers 1-49 and 80-89 by calling the policy “dumb” on social media.Yawn, I don't really care. On this day: 7 Sep 2003 There won't be any boxer songs either......... It must have been some really good shit. Genius Award. The Michigan State Police are investigating a crash that has left one person with life threatening injuries. According to police, early investigating has determined that three people crossed I-94 near Martin Street around 12:50 a.m. Sunday morning. After reaching the other side, one of the pedestrians turned around and entered the westbound I-94 lanes of traffic. It is suspected they were looking for a dropped item. In the first operation of its kind in Israel, 1-year-old twins conjoined at the head were safely separated on Thursday. The twin sisters are expected to live a healthy life following the surgery. The operation took place at the Be'er Sheva's Soroka Medical Center with a medical team of over 50 people, according to the Israeli publication Ynet. “They are expecting a full recovery,” said Dr. Mickey Gideon, director of pediatric neurosurgery at the medical center. “It was a moment of weeping and laughter with the family. For the first time the family can hold the babies separately.” Tonight's ONT has been brought to you by Bad Banana Bread Recipes.

The sheriff in FL runs a department that in the past has been free to shoot as indicated. They showed great restraint in this instance. Some years ago I was living in FL and the deputies caught a cop killer. He resisted.
Shot 64 times questions were raised about the number. The sheriff simply stated that that was all the bullets they had. The County ME ruled it natural causes on the theory that you get shot 64 times you die, naturally.

So... reported for Jury Duty this afternoon. Had been instructed that masks were required. This concerned me because I don't have a mask, and have never worn a mask, but the very thought of wearing one of those paper smile suppressors makes it hard for me to breathe and I start to panic and lash out blindly. I did bring along a bandana, hoping that would be suitable.
The two guards at the metal detector at the door didn't have masks. The gal behind the check-in window didn't have a mask. That was encouraging. Then the gal informed me the trials had been cancelled and I was free to go. Worked for me! Milady Jo and I had lunch at a rock'n'roll nostalgia burger joint. Can't complain.

RIP Warren Zevon.
I watched Quigley Down Under last night for the first time ever and I must say I was underwhelmed to the point of falling asleep. Also, the female lead's backstory was stupid and annoying, aa was the actress's performance. Oh well. I had heard good things about the flick. Those things were lies. Well, except that Alan Rickman played a perfect bad guy. Tonight I watched In The Mouth Of Madness on the strength of a TJM Review. Great (somewhat goofy) psychological horror that was also (perhaps unintentionally) absolutely hilarious. Sam Neill was his usual excellent playing the lead. Anywho, God bless the Horde.

Aside from that little problem, since most of the CO2 resulted from burning coal, where exactly do they propose to put all this reconstituted carbon? The weight of the CO2 in the atmosphere is roughly 3,000 gigatons. If a third of that is anthropogenic and needs removal, they'd have to find a place to store on the order of 1,000 gigatons of carbon.
Posted by: pep at September 07, 2021 09:28 PM (ZsR3z) One thing that they are doing is pumping huge amounts of CO2 from industrial processes into very deep depleted oil/gas reservoir. So deep, the normal pressure is such that the CO2 condenses to a liquid. But, basically, it still consumes a fuckton of energy to compress the CO2 and pump it down, and it's just kicking the can down the road. Sooner or later, some natural process will cause those CO2-laden reservoirs to "burp". Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at September 07, 2021 09:43 PM (8yxCl) 227

They haven't mandated shots yet at work, but they're getting close.

I'm still in the refuse-to-answer mode until I'm forced into it. (The questionnaire had only one required field, which was signature. So that was the only one I filled in. But I think they're coming after me for the rest of it. Going to keep dragging it out in the hopes the problems with the shot will become (even more) obvious before I have to job hunt.)

Posted by: tcn in AK, Hail to the Thief One of the religious positions against the vaccines is based on the use of hek-293 protocols used in the vaccine production. HEK293 is a cell line derived from human embryonic kidney cells grown in tissue culture. They were taken from the kidneys of aborted fetuses. It is a common protocol used in the majority of vaccines we currently use. To simplify the process think of the Hek-293 as an incubator.

The constant insanity is getting very wearying. I try to live disconnected from the modern world as much as possible but it still sneaks thru.
Still, the constant jabber about a virus that doesn't really seem to be that bad. Maybe. Cause a year and a half later, it's still hard to get a definitive handle on what is going on. It's not even clear if the supposed tests give correct answers. The governments nearly everywhere can't content themselves with living high on the hog with confiscated money, they have to keep trying to force everyone to jump like frogs. Any media including sports and hobby media is stuffed full of blatantly ridiculous propaganda. People think they are fighting noble battles because they disagree with the plainly Biblical statements in the religion and somehow they think they should be able to ignore the tenets and still think of themselves as members of the religion. The constant complete attempts at social and lifestyle upheaval to fight a supposed crisis of which there has been no observable evidence in the 25 years they have been going on about it. Why doesn't it all just stop? Why don't people just laugh at them and ignore it? Posted by: azjaeger at September 07, 2021 10:04 PM (3/XaG) 310

Why the government in TX is paying attention to the base. There are about 29,000,000 Texans. Most of those Texans are Republican base voters. Many of those Republican base voters carry guns in their cars, and have done so for years. Most of those people who carry guns in their cars are royally pissed off about the last election being stolen. This is why Texas went to Constitutional carry, got voter reform, the in state no permit suppressor law, and the heartbeat law.
Believe or not, legislators listen to people with guns, which is why the Demonrats are trying desperately to outlaw guns.

Regarding religious exemption, the National Catholic Bioethics Center has a great template letter on their website that could likely be adapted to work for other beliefs.

@277 This is the tone at every tech site I read, among their commenters. Every single one. They all want us dead.
---------- The vast majority of "tech news" websites are all owned by the same company. This happened back when Gawker started collecting tech news and video gaming sites. When Gawker went bankrupt, the tech news sites were sold as a complete bundle to their current owner. The viewpoints of the people running those sites has not changed in the meantime, and they all quote each other and reinforce their narratives in an incestuous fashion. People who have different opinions probably stopped visiting the sites when every last one of them came out against the public during Gamergate a while back. There's diversity of opinion in tech news. But you have to get off the beaten path and go find some of the lower profile sites. Posted by: junior at September 07, 2021 10:14 PM (PTw5h) 355
>>>After all this time, I have a sense of relief and a sense of vindication. I wish I could have remained teaching all this time. Today's decision validates that I did nothing wrong by being a gay man.
====== Hmmm. When I was a full time teacher in a Catholic school there was a morality clause in our contracts, even though I didn't teach any religious ed classes. Also, why "fire" a substitute teacher. It's essentially a daily contract. Just don't call him any more to come sub. When I started, I had my name on the sub list of several schools.

I was in the jury pool once.
I actually was called in with one other group (I think it was kind 40 to a group) and witnessed jury selection. The kept asking potential jurors if they had ever had contact with the police. Several were like "No" and everyone else was like "I had a speeding ticket", etc. I was sitting out in the gallery thinking "Oh shit, I hope they don't get to me". "Mr. Clinger, have you ever had an encounter with the police?" "How long ya got? Just want the highlights?" Posted by: Bitter Clinger at September 07, 2021 10:19 PM (5We2S) 365

Apparently the statist department is disturbed because some US citizens armed up and tried to get into Afghanistan in a private plane before the airport shut down. They were caught in Dubai and released but stopped from getting to Afghanistan. We left almost a million automatic weapons on the ground and the US statist department was worried because 7 armed guys were trying to go save some people and had guns...

Regarding religious exemption,
Let me say up front that those who impose a vaccinate mandate as a condition of employment or entry are the moral and ethical kin to the guard outside the showers at Auschwitz. As a Protestant Christians, even the founding Fathers of the country in which this company exists, believed that we are made in the image of God and thus have unalienable Rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. A company has an economic relationship with me that involves me trading a useful service in exchange for compensation. What the company proposes is that they take ownership of my body, not for 2000 hours a year, but for the rest of my life. I can get the Kill Shot on Monday and they still sever the relationship on Tuesday and I can't undo the Kill Shot - it is with me until I die, and I will suffer alone all of the calamity that follows. What they offer is on par with what Jim Jones offered his followers. Posted by: Reuben Hick at September 07, 2021 10:33 PM (+LCoQ) 419

@424 It is going to be difficult to get over half of CA to vote Repub. This has been going on for many decades and too many of the good guys left.
---------- Despite that, polls seem to show good news for Elder. The vote is in two parts. The first part is whether Newsome gets tossed, and a lot of voters on both sides of the aisle are upset with him. The second part is who gets to replace him if he's forced out of office, and the winner just needs a plurality. There's no "50% plus one vote" requirement.

We left almost a million automatic weapons on the ground and the US statist department was worried because 7 armed guys were trying to go save some people and had guns...

Twitter is chock full of commenters ridiculing people wearing masks outdoors. Yet most if not all of these keyboard geniuses dutifully wore their idiotic face diapers throughout 2020 inside and out despite zero evidence those actually work to control covid. And if the media was to announce another "outbreak" the masks would suddenly reappear. "But they tell us we must wear them" they say. Society is stupid.

Got 'em all done now, the steel-jacketed rubber bushings replaced by greasable Delrin bushings. Getting the old bushings out was a struggle; getting the new ones in a piece of cake.

I hear about people who are called for jury duty all the time. I have received one letter in my 29 years on this planet. You were supposed to call in on a certain day to tell it your group had to come in. I called in and we were not selected.
Even if you are selected, only some go into a court room, a small percentage. And from that, a very tiny percentage are selected to be on a jury. Maybe in small towns it is different. I have heard of people who have served on many juries. Posted by: Quint at September 07, 2021 11:37 PM (JOV35) 568

I assume that everyone here who tries to get out of jury duty does not actually want a jury if they are ever a party to a lawsuit. Right?
In law school I got called for jury duty in Boston. No one gets out of jury duty except cops, judges, and surgeons who have surgery scheduled. Anyways, I was a law student and quite eager to serve, especially since it was during Spring break and I had nowhere to go, plus I ended up get $165 + T money. It was a murder trial at the Dorchester Yacht Club that happened just as I was arriving at school the year before. The name sounded familiar but that's it. I was originally seated in the jury box and after voir dire, was the only original member left. The defense attorney's opening words are the best thing I ever learned during law school: "Shit, fucking, shit." Pause. "You will hear these words during this trial." That was brilliant. No guilty. (Because he wasn't, essentially by the coroner's admission. The decedent was also an I-95 drug-running "debt collector". GRTBR Posted by: SFGoth (KAi1n) at September 07, 2021 11:51 PM (KAi1n) 588

Who is dumb enough to believe anything the press writes, shouldn't a simple translation be the easy thing to do, without first checking it? Those Jihadists aren't talking in ecumenical terms folks, none of the anodyne phony balogna stuff, it ain't "In God Is Our Trust" or anything of the sort.
"Allha is greatest" aka "My god can beat up your god". That's what they are saying, and the West refuses to even acknowledge this. See also "Peace", and what that means, to a a devout Mohohmadan.

JuJu, I believe Buster's major schtick was, as he was described at the time, being "the great stone face." No matter how crazy things got, his character tried to stay 100% rational.

I did comment #666. That's not going to end well.
RE: SNL - Dennis Miller is damn perceptive and appropriately introspective. These form the basis of his humor which I love. I remember a couple decades ago watching a call-in show with him on it... No idea what it was but he was on the air taking calls. Someone called in and told Dennis that Dennis had made him laugh a couple times during the show and that he should consider going into comedy. Dennis was already an established comedian (hence the call in TV show). He said that call made him reconsider everything he'd ever done. He could deal with hecklers and boos, but this guy pantsed him so gently that he was dumbstruck on TV. Posted by: 496 at September 08, 2021 12:44 AM (U1eOr) 684
Chaplin was probably also the very first Hollywood megastar. He was making sums that would be considered huge even today, and was the first to get to start up his own studio, United Artists.

something weird. I go to the local megalomart and they only play songs from when I got out of high school. They play Tiffany, American Girl, George Michael etc all the time. I get they assume we are old and pay people to make these choices. But it is odd to me. Why were the pop songs that came out right when I was leaving high school for college decided to be the only songs they play in supermarkets?
I don't think many of them were that good to be honest. Some of them I despise because after a thousand times, they get a bit stale. Didn't anyone make some art before or after that time? Crap, it has been 35 years. Posted by: Quint at September 08, 2021 01:42 AM (JOV35) 741

Posted by: COMountainMarie at September 08, 2021 01:47 AM (MViHT) I was country when country wasn't cool. But everyone else listened to them pretty much all the time. Another thing about music is we often link it to certain times in our lives, and even relationships. So I have a soft spot for some of the music from that time, only because of some good and bad times. I understand nostalgia. But it is odd to me that the supermarkets play the stuff from 86,87, and 88 so often. Most pop is designed to be throw away. But obviously in this case that did not happen.

Posted by: COMountainMarie at September 08, 2021 01:47 AM (MViHT) I liked Tiffany when everyone else said they hated her. Sure there is some nostalgia there. But she did some good songs. For some reason it became cool to dislike her. Then again, that would never have worked if she wasn't a mega star already. Posted by: Quint at September 08, 2021 01:57 AM (JOV35) 746
Thanks Quint.
I totally get the nostalgia part of it. For me, yeah, there certainly was much better country music at that time. I was a southern rock fan at that time. As for some of the singers you mentioned, if I was tortured, I wouldn't be able to cite a single song...probably heard them a gazillion times though, I suspect Posted by: COMountainMarie at September 08, 2021 02:19 AM (MViHT) 747

That reminds me of Greece. I remember reading around the time of the Iraq War, the most Anti American country in Western Europe was Greece. But then I recalled that half of Greece has emigrated here over the last century. At some point something has to give. If the good guys leave, what are you left with?
ok, not half the country, but a very high percentage left. Posted by: Quint 3 Greeks in a rowboat ? Posted by: JT at September 08, 2021 02:25 AM (arJlL) 750

If something is one your mind, you notice it a lot. I have said the same about many music references here. So much some care about I have never heard of. But if you get into a certain genre, or even a country like France, when it pops up, you notice it. I know there is a term for this but I am not going to look it up a this point. Maybe i only notice these songs for a reason. But really i know that is not the case. They play them all the time as if it was 1987. Some bean counter figured out that that is the best play for the stores. But I agree most this stuff was supposed to be throw away music. I think the singers would be surprised we still lean on this stuff.

Mmm cucumbers.
I learned something this summer that you all probably already knew- if you keep your cucumbers in cold water in the fridge after picking (or buying) they stay super crisp. Makes a huge difference Posted by: My Life is Insanity at September 08, 2021 03:49 AM (DHtun) 765

Up early, all, and trying to stave off boredom. I've shaved and have about 2 hours before it gets light enough for me to drive to the park to work out. God, I am tired of this camping out! Which, despite being comfortable, is what this is compared to being at home.

At 9 this am I go to the barbershop The Male Room. This is the place, I think, that made the national news in May of '20 for refusing to shut down completely in the face of governmental lockdown. I'd buy a haircut and beard trim from them just to show support. But the staff are all pleasant-looking if not downright attractive women -- I stopped in yesterday to make my appointment, and was very pleased. No face diapers and no signs on the doors!
Apparently you also get a consultation about your hair style and other grooming matters. Their grooming tips on their website regarding shaving are more than half right, which is better than I expected. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at September 08, 2021 04:11 AM (quCFJ) 777

Times says chances of getting COVID if vaccinated is less than 1/10,000 per day. Chances of getting COVID if not vaccinated is not much more than 1/10,000 per day.
To-date 40,280,001 confirm cases in the USA. Since March there has been 18 months or about 540 days. 40280001/331000000(US Pop.)/540 = 0.0000225 0.0000225 x 10,000 = 2.25 chances per 10,000 per day. So yes, vaccines lessen your chance of an infection but do not come close to eliminating it. Posted by: Fred at September 08, 2021 06:50 AM (wgxgK) 779
Thank God this future pedophile was reinstated by the courts. This is so conservative my heart hurts. If we don't allow our boys to be molested by AIDS riddled sodomites we will never win another election. As conservatives we must get on our knees and accept the gift this AIDS riddled homosexual wants to give us or be banded bigots.
