No, she is preparing blue streamers for the nets. She will attach them to the nets after her colleague finishes with each one. The streamers attract more fish to the nets, increasing yields when their husbands take to the waters.

The addition of colored streamers is common in various cultures for the improvement in fish acquisition. The costs of the colored materials is more than offset by increases in production.

97 From WikiArt:

Homer often turned to watercolor when he traveled, including during the period he spent in the fishing village of Cullercoats, England. Originally titled Far Away from Billingsgate, this watercolor was later renamed Mending the Nets after Homer scratched away the scenery behind the two engaged in the title activity. The simplicity of the local lifestyle appealed to his interest and gave him a new selection of genre subjects loosely related to his increasing interest in marine scenes. The high level of detail in the work, especially in the figures' hair and the fishing net, evidences Homer's great skill with the difficult medium. The women wear tattered clothes and are focused on their work, a sharp contrast to Homer's earlier compositions of genteel women often engaged in recreational activities.

114 Serious question. I am not a wordsmith. How would you answer this - "Please describe the nature of your objection to the COVID-19 vaccination requirement. "

Since I would be subjected to the Pfizer vax, they'll say that there aren't fetal cells in the vaccine...they'll ignore the fact that they were used in it's development/testing.

It's fine to address things other than abortion.

118 So -

About a month and a half ago I mentioned that I had been having a burning / stabbing pain in my chest from under the left breast to the sternum, coming and going. I was checked out at the ER, who thought it was shingles.

My PCP sent me to a cardiologist and a neurologist for a checkup, as well. The verdict is that (surprisingly) nothing is wrong with me, and that most likely I pinched a nerve and just need to ride it out. Since the pain has been fading, I guess that's what I will do, but I told the neurologist I'd check in again if it didn't go away.

137 Former Iranian president Mahmoud Imadinnerjacket forced to leave UAE - report

Posted by: SMOD at October 18, 2021 08:57 AM (RHGPo)

138 About a month and a half ago I mentioned that I had been having a burning / stabbing pain in my chest from under the left breast to the sternum, coming and going. I was checked out at the ER, who thought it was shingles.

My PCP sent me to a cardiologist and a neurologist for a checkup, as well. The verdict is that (surprisingly) nothing is wrong with me, and that most likely I pinched a nerve and just need to ride it out. Since the pain has been fading, I guess that's what I will do, but I told the neurologist I'd check in again if it didn't go away.

Much women's work back then was on their feet. And the mild, varied earth colors of yellow and brown are relaxing, nothing to distract their attention or the viewers'. Even the skin tones reflect the browns and yellows used in the background, nets and the stone work. I get no sense of sound, just the visual. It is relaxing.

The blending of the limited color scheme and the worn quality of the nets reminds me of Andrew Wyeth. That's a good thing.

204 He had Parkinson's and blood cancer (leaving him with virtually no immune system). Covid was probably the least of his problems.

If you've got leukemia, why would you take a chance on an actual vaccine, let alone a blood clot shot?

227 CHICAGO (AP) -- Actor Jussie Smollett was indicted Tuesday for a second time on charges of lying to police about a racist and anti-gay attack he allegedly staged on himself in downtown Chicago, renewing a divisive criminal case that drew worldwide attention last year.

The indictment came from a special prosecutor who was appointed after Cook County prosecutors dropped the same charges last March.

242 It's chest and triceps day!

But it's also "get my car towed to a shop to get a new starter motor" day.

Good relationship with the owner of the gym, which is where the car is currently "resting comfortably"... Trying to decide to workout before or after I get the car towed.

(thinking)

GAINZ first!!1! Probably only 3-4 exercises today, so it'll be a quick-ish workout.

The plan -- pyramid 45/55/65lbs dumb bells for the chest press, trying to get sets of 12. Then grab some 25lbs and do a burnout set. Then do another type of press (shoulder, decline, or incline), then do a tricep exercise (assisted dips or pulldowns, or both). Then get towed like a boss.

She was chairman of a local government Sea Level Rise Preparedness and Resilience project. She once captained a Navy warship. The appointment looks great on paper except for one kinda big problem.

This is not a warship position.

Its a commercial shipping appointment and she has zero experience aboard any commercial ships.

She does not even have experience leading navy military sealift ships.

288 I only met Powell once but know a number of men who served with him over the years, going back to VietNam. There is genuine respect there. Interestingly, the most frequent comment about him was he was a really smart guy who always seemed to be in the right place at the right time. By the time he was a colonel, he was being groomed to the higher ranks.

But watching people like Powell, who I'm sure at one point was a very decent and honorable man, it's clear that as it relates to our "elites," they care less and less about us and more and more about the machine.

371 I always wondered what happened to baby poo in utero,

*******

I could wax lyrical on the subject.

Babies don't eat in utero but do swallow sloughed cells along with amniotic fluid. This makes a generally low residue clump in the distal colon that includes bile, thus taking on a dark green color. This is known as meconium and is generally retained in the rectum until feedings begin following birth. First bowel movement after birth is generally within 24 hours. Longer than that may signal certain pathologic conditions. Meconium itself is generally harmleess, exceptL

On the earlier end of the timeline, if a baby is subjected to stress during labor (low oxygen, compressed umbilical cord, cord around the baby's neck, etc.) the meconium can be expelled into the amniotic fluid, exposing the baby to the risk of getting it into the mouth prior to delivery and breathing it into the lungs with first breath, causing a form of chemical pneumonia that can be life-threatening.

374 From the previous thread:

My HR department included a comment that the questions did not originate from them but came from the government.

Keep a copy of that note. It could be worth a lot of money to you in a lawsuit, if you get fired. That statement is them admitting that they are a government agent in the Mississippi Burning legal sense, and both the company, and the individuals working in HR become liable for violations of Constitutional rights under color of law as such. Their corporate protections under the law serve as the protection part of "direction and protection" part of being a government operator.

See the Viva Frei and Barnes podcast for more about these kind of lawsuits, which are winning in the courts.
