Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Monday Overnight Open Thread (6/20/22)Quote I “The general public is not aware of the degree to which unions control the Democratic Party. One does not need to speculate on this point,” Elon Musk Quote II “The majority of people in America get their information from the news, but the news only really pays attention to these extreme outlier attacks. They are deadly and horrible, but they are not very common. But it is what we see in the news and that creates the perception that this is the biggest problem.” Joel Capellan, a criminology professor at Rowan University Quote III “And so I think to determine whether justice was done in this case you’re going to have to wait and see how it all comes out on the civil side of things and then through the NFL on the administrative side of things. And people will then determine whether that’s justice.”Harris County District Attorney Kim Ogg But don't dare call the January 6th event in D.C. a "dust-up". 11 - 82 year old men hardest hit. A device that can detect when a man is watching pornography by “reading his mind” has been developed in China, according to the research team in Beijing behind the project. Rhetoric much? Hours after former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens released a video saying he would hunt members of the Republican party who he considered not conservative enough, the Republican floor leader of the Missouri state Senate said he had contacted law enforcement. “We have been in contact with the Missouri Highway Patrol and hope that former Gov Greitens finds the help he needs,” Senate Majority Leader Caleb Rowden posted on Twitter Monday. “Anyone with multiple accusations of abuse toward women and children should probably steer clear of this rhetoric.” Well now they will never have that chance to turn their lives around. Awww shucks. The resident of a Connecticut home fatally shot a pair of male teenagers — 15 and 16 — who forced their way into the East Hartford residence last week and physically attacked the resident, police told WTIC-TV. What are the details? Great gun control, resident hit both targets. There is no such thing as "Free Love". A man has revealed he's splurged an eye-watering £9,000 on his wives for Valentine's Day in Brazil. Arthur O Urso made headlines when he married nine women to celebrate "free love". He recently went through a divorce with one of his wives as he now has a total of eight special women in his life. Now to celebrate his love for them, Arthur decided to buy them gifts for Brazilian Valentine's Day which took place on June 12. The next John McCain is TX Rep. Dan Crenshaw. And he has the temper to prove it. Representative Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) was confronted by conservative activists for his controversial stances regarding “red flag laws” and using American tax dollars to fund Ukraine’s war effort against Russia, as well as his connections to the World Economic Forum (WEF). Among those who confronted the Congressman was Alex Stein, a prominent YouTuber and conservative activist. Stein is also a delegate for the Texas State legislature. Could this be part of America's problems? My short answer is "Yes."

On Sunday, Breitbart reported the liberal pro-abortion terrorist group, “Jane’s Revenge,” announced what it called a “Night of Rage” set for the day the Supreme Court overturns the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. “Within the month we anticipate a verdict will be issued that overturns Roe v. Wade, setting in motion an evisceration of abortion access across the so-called United States,” the organization stated in a manifesto posted to the Anarchist Library using the topics of “anarcha-feminism,” and “armed struggle.” Born on this day: June 20, 1942 - Brian Wilson Born on this day: June 20, 1954 - Michael Anthony Always plan your trip ahead.

The video taken by a Local 10 News viewer happened around 10 a.m. Sunday near the Interstate 95 onramp from Interstate 595. The white van appears to be hoisted up too high before it crashed into the overpass and came crashing down onto the roadway. “Boom. There was a cloud of dust, it looked like the whole thing exploded,” said Brian McConnell, who witnessed the crash. Other drivers had to swerve away to avoid being hit by debris. “It was chaos,” McConnell said. “It happened in a split second.” In the United States alone, there are approximately 135,000 children that are adopted every year. I’m sure every single one of those have their own personal story to tell. But one five-year-old wanted to share this special moment with all of his classmates. He invited his entire kindergarten class to his adoption hearing at the Kent County courthouse in Michigan. Notice: Posted with permission by the Ace Media Empire, AceCorp, LLC & Mis. Hum.

It's not that "the news only pays attention to outlier attacks," it's that the left doesn't care when black people kill black people because they think that blacks are animals and because there's no political upside in black on black violence.
And it's not just shootings in America. In the '90s, the Somalia Civil war and the Rwandan Genocide got practically no press but the MSM focused on the Yugoslavia war like a laser. And the entire Hollywood/MSM complex obsessed over South Africa but only because it was whites doing the oppressing. The left believes that brown people killing brown people is just part of their nature and not really news. It's only news when whites are either the victims or perpetrators because the Left holds white people to a higher standard. Posted by: 29Victor at June 20, 2022 10:38 PM (BJKQV) 135

Damn I'm sorry.
What happened? Posted by: thathalfrican - Up in arms like Minutemen A few weeks ago my uncle was having pain in his right foot. It got worse and wire, the agonizing. My uncle is tough Irish, never complains, he's one of 10 children. I finally say his right foot and it was dark purple. Went to the doctor on a Saturday, they popped a blister and told him it was just an infection and put him on antibiotics. His doc then wanted to see him on Wednesday. They foot still looked bad and they wanted him to have an ultrasound. Couldn't book him till Friday. Friday morning I said that's it you're going to the ER with a different hospital network. They took one look at the foot and immediately called the vascular surgeon. He was transferred by ambulance to the bigger hospital. They were appalled that the order wasn't STAT and started treatment. Found a blood clot in his leg. Removed it but they found a 7cm mass on his lung. Mind you his GP never ordered chest x-rays in all these years even though every sibling but one has died of cancer and my uncle smoked 3 packs of camels a day for almost 40 years. He quit in 1991.

Posted by: mpfs at June 20, 2022 10:41 PM (79p/O) My GP had me do an x-ray every year. I smoked for 40 years. Found the cancer but it was stage 3 by then (I had sloughed off the x-ray for 6 months). A brilliant surgeon and oncologist saved my ass. That was over 8 years ago. People, if you have smoked, or do, get a yearly chest x-ray. If the insurance won't pay for it do it anyway. You can negotiate with most providers. Posted by: Javems at June 20, 2022 10:54 PM (AmoqO) 195

123: unions always at some point price the labor they “represent” out of the labor market. I’d argue for that reason they have done more to run off the only business Americans want (manufacturing) than anything else. And they encourage government hostility to business.

Ask about a hyperbaric chamber. High O2 treatments could save his foot. Also, I agree the pain medication is way too low of a dose. Why isn't he on fentanyl? There is no upper limit to how high a dose of fentanyl he can receive. Ask for a pain management consultant or a hospice consult.

This all started suddenly when mowing the lawn one day and he couldn't catch his breath. Now, also he is having heart issues! All out of the blue.

But way down here in the SE they come pretty ripe from the grocery stores and they get sweeter over a week to two. I buy cherries and grapes and the cherries last longer than the grapes. Someone needs to find out how to produce cottoncandy grapes year around because I miss those. When Sumo-citrus oranges are available I'll get those too. They are the most boob-looking of all the oranges.

Posted by: Guy Mohawk at June 20, 2022 10:09 PM (8GBH4) ---- I'm still of the opinion that visiting teams having to play the Avs at 6000 feet, are at a disadvantage as it take anywhere from 3-6 weeks to build up tolerance.

From what I heard the PGA is at least attempting to ban golfers who play in the LIV. The major league sports used to try to ban players who jumped to upstart leagues too. Trouble is, golf revolves around individual players. Ban all the golfers and people have no reason to watch your tournament. It's not like there is laundry to cheer for.

I have Kaiser and now have appointment to meet the 4th GP as I have not been satisfied with anyone so far. Well, I liked the first one but he retired. I think once you turn 29, they kind of lose interest unless you are agressive about your health. I did try to change insurance but one of the big problems in the NE is shortage of doctors or at least ones trained in the US. I do not want a doctor who interned in Africa or India.

Cigarettes are incredibly pernicious. There've been warning labels on them for decades and everyone has known since the 70's what they'll do to you. It's not even like they get you high compared to "actual" drugs. Want a nic hit, gum it. But smoking pack after pack? Yeah, you always hear about "grammaw smoke 10 packs a day and lived to 102". Someone wins the lottery too. Cancer sticks. And emphysema sticks. (It was the cig-induced emphysema that killed BOC keyboardist/guitarist Allen Lanier at age 67 (when the other originals are all alive in their mid-late 70s), not the coke or the heroin (and he was good friends with JJ Cale).

Just got through watching an episode of Emergency! on Fetv, another classic TV network that I stumbled on a while back. I don't think I've watched any new stuff, other than Tucker and Gutfeld in a long time, just all classic TV. Anyway, a young female reporter got assigned to ride with Squad 51. She was a feminist, '70s version, and drove them all nuts. She accused them all of being male chauvinist pigs, even blessed out the doc at Rampart. Told Johnny he was "misogynist". "What's that mean?" "You have women", Roy replied. He said, "I like that word a lot now, and glares at her". That explained to her that all that venom she has can't undo "millions of years of nature". Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion (Mzdiz) at June 21, 2022 12:11 AM (Mzdiz) 413

When the reporter was first riding them, they had to deal with piddling shit, like Dick Van Patton getting his hand caught in the sink drain trying to get his nagging, nasty wife' (played by someone familiar, some comic actress I can't name) wedding ring she'd dropped out. But in the end, the reporter saw them on a real fire, with real danger, risking their lives to save people. Then Johnny was hurt, and Roy had to go in and pull him out, and then the building exploded just right as they got out. She was impressed. And it ended with her dating Johnny.

And the electric utility came and fixed the power drop today. Tech said it might have been tree limb pressure, but quite possibly was just a defective wire splice, allowing a little corrosion to eat through the aluminum wire. He said it's not that unusual.

What is surprising is Insurance companies are paying out claims for either the Covid crud deaths or the resulting vaxx injury fatalities or injuries.
Neither biological attacks (or lab engineered viruses) would be a payable claim, nor emergency authorized experimental medical trials. Which is what we're dealing with ultimately. Posted by: Common Tater at June 21, 2022 12:41 AM (F0yZs) 465

The Solstice occurs early this morning, 5:14 am EDT, or 9:14AM Zulu. At this point, Sol reaches him maximum declination above the ecliptic. Solstice means "sun stop" basically. Sol stops his declination movement, and then starts falling again. Day here will be just a few seconds under 14:30 long.

Meh. Both the Beatles and the Beach Boys (Brian Wilson) were as good as anybody ever was. There's something about rock that makes it impossible to do innovation after a certain point, the only thing that ever happens rarely is that sometimes they get better at presentation of their old ideas. Claiming they are overrated at this point mostly because of familiarity I think is like saying Shakespeare is crap because there is too much cliche in his work.

Feed from the transformer enters the meter base at the top. Directly below the meter base is a box with the main shutoff switch. A cable exits the bottom of that box, hangs down in a loop of a few inches, and then runs back up the pole to a cablehead, whence three wires exit to be spliced to the 3 drops. I asked the tech about getting a transfer switch installed to permit the use of a generator, and he said he'd get back to me on that. Said the utility usually doesn't approve any subscriber equipment on the pole. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at June 21, 2022 12:49 AM (V0Qgu) 481
Their output was uneven, and I think they took way too many drugs. See also "The White Album". There's enough material there (almost). for a single album. They stopped touring in 1966.
McCartney was an exceptional tunesmith I suppose, but he was saddled with a lot of people who just wanted to suck Apple Records dry. Good musicians aren't necessarily good businessmen. I'd be willing to bet they are still fighting over some of the money, the gate receipts, for the "Concert For Bangladesh" in 1970.

You can briefly freeze houseflies in your freezer. They will look dead. Watch closely though, as they warm they will start to twitch ... and then start moving their wings... after a few short preflight checks they'll go on their way.
One wag in grade school, he somehow took a long strand of the girl's hair in the chair in front of him, must have been almost two feet long, and tied a knot around a fly, so it was on a leash.

Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion (Mzdiz) at June 21, 2022 12:48 AM (Mzdiz) I remember reading about what some observers called "wheels" of light in the Indian Ocean. Closer reading revealed that these "wheels" were like rays, from a source over the horizon, that would sweep past their ships, and then be followed after an interval , by another one. The light was the familiar phosphorescence from plankton in the sea, which do fluoresce when disturbed. That sounds suspiciously like interference patterns arising from the collision of two wave trains, with the light rays coinciding with constructive interference, and the dark spaces with destructive interference.

Good musicians aren't necessarily good businessmen IMHO the Beatles had less clunkers than nearly any band if not all. They were also barely 30 when it ended, and 22 or younger when it started. Nobody had ever had a career like that in pop music before, and they were just kids from a British backwater. For the first couple years they were just especially big pop stars but then culture mutated to where they were something that had never happened before. Nobody ever cared about Sinatra or Elvis's views on society. The last five-six years they had to wing it. Posted by: azjaeger at June 21, 2022 12:59 AM (3/XaG) 500

Wonderful Christmastime bites indeed. However, that was long after the Beatles, and it DID make him a boatload of money. Paul was the pop guy, the showbiz guy in the group. So his solo work is going to lean that way much as a lot of John's solo work leaned towards edgy to tick you off work as he was that guy in the group. The other thing about the Beatles is after the first pop period, they didn't stick to the same sound. They did anything. So some of it will appeal to some sorts of taste, and other bits will appeal to other tastes. Even on the same album.

At each building with a drop and service entrance, there was another pole right there. That wasn't Mrs. Duke's pole, but a customer pole. On top was a very old transformer, utility type, looked to be about 2300V primary, near as I could tell from eyeballing. Very old, and customer equipment. HV side was open, nothing connected. Low voltage side fed into a another weatherhead, with conduit running to the main panel, which in this case was a big ol' safety switch. They were using the secondaries of those old transformers as autotransformers, and that's how they got their 120V for each building.

If you didn't, your local grounded tap reference would be different for each building, and that wouldn't be too good. Shocking in fact, if you happened to bring a good grounded conductor from to the other. And the knew what they fuck they were doing. If you work out the math, you'll see the two hots supplying the autotransformer carry only 1/2 the neutral imbalance. They had sized their wires accordingly. The neutral was bigger than the hots. These guys knew what the fuck they were doing, whoever it was who wired that setup. And while it would get more complicated to explain, they had taken into account the possible fault and phase loss conditions into account with the design as well. I was impressed.

The blues thing was a different scene than the Beatles. Stones, Animals, Kinks, Clapton...Beatles early influences were more Buddy Holly, Everly Brothers, and early 60s US R&B and girl groups. George was Carl Perkins style rockabilly. Remember, they were teens in the mid-late 50s.

The only criticism I have for that setup is the imbalance. All of those 120V derived circuits had to be between the same two phases of the supply. That's the problem with high-leg setups, which this was, just with independent splitting for each drop via those autotransformers. And you had to do it that way, so you could ground all those center taps. Now, if you didn't have to worry about that, you could have distributed it around all the other phase pairs, but then there would be voltage between those center taps. It could be done, but it would be so oddball as to be dangerous. Posted by: publius, Rascally Rapscallion (Mzdiz) at June 21, 2022 01:36 AM (Mzdiz) 542
I've noticed in recent years, at least in my experience, that Goolag's location data for my location has got *less* precise... In the past, when I'd opened maps.google. com at home, the map was ususally centred very close (scary close!) to my actual location, but now it's always at least a couple of miles away... Either the Goolag's mapping of location via IP address is less capable now, or they randomise it a bit now for security reasons -- I don't know... It still bothers me that some rando with nothing more than my name and a computer can get driving directions to my home!

I once suggested something. Problem of harmonic, non-linear loads on three phase 208Y/120V systems feeding electronic shit with switching power supplies. Triple-n harmonics add in the nuetrals, and "double sized" neutrals became a thing because of it. Didn't really need to be that big, but close enough. I was talking one time and said hell, why not use 120V deltas to feed that shit. The zero-sequence harmonics wouldn't be a problem, 'cause it would be a delta. I was discussin' this with a Clempson Cow Collidge edumacated eee-lectric injun I knew, along with some others. He said, "You're right son, that would work. But I want you to think". Now, with a 120V delta, you gonna have one third of your output with two hot whars to ground. You gone have to 'splain to some idiot that he's got 120V between them two hot wires, while both of 'em are still hot to ground. That fool would kill himself or burn something up, or both.

Posted by: SFGoth at June 21, 2022 03:10 AM (KAi1n) Constitution says they shall pass no bills of attainder.... period... does not mention citizens at all. Posted by: Romeo13 at June 21, 2022 03:11 AM (oHd/0) 613
Virtue signalling their Putin hate while showing the poor Ukies some love (before FJB threw Zelensky under the bus). Bills of Attainder do not apply when it comes to virtue signalling.
Posted by: RickZ at June 21, 2022 03:10 AM (ldL4g) I'm worried about the precedent this is setting. No more Property rights? No more due process of Law? They are even seizing assets sitting in foreign ports. Posted by: Romeo13 at June 21, 2022 03:13 AM (oHd/0) 614

Posted by: SFGoth at June 21, 2022 03:10 AM (KAi1n) Can't really blame them if they do. I think it was Apple Pay that was pulled from Russia, stranding commuters there because the app was used on their public transit. Going after private Russian citizens' property when they have no say in what their government does is asinine. But then again, our government is full of asinine assholes.

Posted by: Romeo13 at June 21, 2022 03:13 AM (oHd/0) We haven't had property rights for some time, what with unCivil Forfeiture laws. My copy of the Constitution seems to omit the part of guilty until proven innocent. We're seeing the loss of property rights blossom with all the Red Flag laws being hurriedly shoved down our throats. Posted by: RickZ at June 21, 2022 03:19 AM (ldL4g) 616

One of those ancient kiddy rides, where you put a dime in and it bounces around for a while, was at a clothing-and-uniform store at Fort Gordon, Georgia. This was in 2011. It didn't work of course.
I came with a friend who was 6'-8". I saw it and said "OMG, you have to sit in that. And I have to take your picture!" He said it had already happened, and showed me the picture. Posted by: BourbonChicken at June 21, 2022 04:00 AM (ybIRR) 626

Good guys with guns. Uvalde gets worse! Yahoo news reports with 3 minutes of shooter entering the class room Eleven law enforcement officers with semi automatic rifles and at least one ballistic shield (police chief lied said they only had pistols) surveillance camera shows. No police check door to see if the door was locked or lock defective for an hour. In a short time 19 law officers were in hall way ;but still wouldn't try to see if door was locked. Uvalde authorites ask that surveillance video nit be released to public as it would be embarrassing and lead to disrespect of authority!

Stirling the Crazy Little Black Kitten and I are up. He passed his vet exam yesterday with no troubles; he is definitely a boy, about 3 months old, and seems healthy. As for me, I'm definitely a boy, a few months past 29, and pretty darn healthy, considering! Back to the work world today. Grrrr. Posted by: Wolfus Aurelius at June 21, 2022 04:49 AM (c6xtn) 641
