Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Monday Overnight Open Thread (7/29/24)Quote I "We want to get his perspective on what he observed," Kevin Rojek, the special agent in charge of the FBI's Pittsburgh field office Quote II "Satan makes nothing: only he ruins everything. He does not invent: he tampers. And his followers are no different: they humiliate woman’s femininity in order to erase the motherhood that recalls the Virgin Mother; they castrate man’s manhood in order to tear from the image of God’s fatherhood; they corrupt the little ones in order to kill in them and make them victims of the most abject wokeism." Italian Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò - the former papal nuncio to the United States Thank you Iris, Team Hedgehog, for the wonderful chuckles.........

A former California public school district official was sentenced to over five years in prison Thursday after officials found he embezzled nearly $16.7 million from the district over the years — hiding stacks of cash in a small refrigerator. Jorge Armando Contreras, 53, who previously worked as the senior director of fiscal services at the Magnolia School District, a public school district that serves Anaheim and Stanton, faced his judgement Thursday in Santa Ana court. He was sentenced to 70 months in federal prison and ordered to pay $16,694,942 in restitution, the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Central District of California said in a news release. He had pleaded guilty in March to one count of embezzlement, theft and intentional misapplication of funds from an organization receiving federal funds. Loud pipes save lives, not necessarily hearing, but lives nevertheless. Japan shocks the world with the first motorcycle neither electric nor gasoline: New fuel and a futuristic concept EVs are the future thanks to brands like Tesla or BYD, but let’s not forget that there are new alternative fuels that are reaching far beyond. Japan has just reminded us that Musk doesn’t have sustainable mobility in his hands with the first motorcycle that is neither electric nor gasoline-powered. Do you know how it works? Just a few words: It runs on something better and more futuristic. Will we see it soon in America? We’ll explain all the details, and we’ll let you know that you’re not expecting which brand has developed it. And just like that, influential no more. A young girl died while taking selfies for her TikTok followers at the top of a waterfall after falling in and drowning while trapped between two rocks. Moe Sa Nay, 14, was posing for snaps with her friends to share with her 150,000 social media followers when she slipped on the wet stones at the Sinywa Waterfall in south-east Myanmar on July 22. The teen was swept away downstream by the fast-flowing current and her body was left jammed between two large boulders. Brain-Invading Parasite Could Be Hacked to Deliver Meds in Your Head A parasite that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier to infect the brains of its hosts could one day be a means of delivering important therapeutics. Toxoplasma gondii – a parasite that thrives in nearly all warm-blooded life on Earth – could be engineered to deliver therapeutic proteins to cells in the brain, providing treatment options for conditions that are difficult to access.

Donald Trump May Replace JD Vance Within 10 Days--Chuck Schumer. Source: Newsweek
speculation has continued grow as the senator has been met with backlash and bad press amid resurfaced remarks in which he said the United States is run by "childless cat ladies" during an interview with Fox News in 2021. However, those reports have continued to be denied by Trump's campaign and Trump himself. Well played Chuck. His comment is intended to keep Vance on the ticket. Trump hates Schumer. Even if it's true, who else would they pick? The puppy-killer? It's all garbage all the way down. Removing Vance from the ticket is an admission that that Trump is an old man who couldn't even get it right in selecting a VP for the ticket. Trump will never admit that he screwed up. Democrats need to use the Vance pick as evidence of Trump's incompetence. It will drive him crazy. Trump has only a few weeks to decide before the ballots go for printing. So if he is going to do it, will need to be soon. A nominee that makes these kinds of mistakes is not fit to hold the office of the presidency. How many other decisions is Trump going to make that he regrets? Posted by: Intercepted DU Transmissions brought by the Intrepid AoS Liaison at July 29, 2024 10:15 PM (lgkBv) 46

80 Ford patented tech that would have a vehicle report a driver for speeding
That's going to be a problem in Michigan where it is assumed that you go about 10 MPH over the speed limit on expressways. I had a coworker whose husband was a cop. I told her that the police don't look at ticketing you unless you are 10 MPH over the limit. She said that actually they consider it if you are 8 over.

Piper, I made a resolution to eat better this year, and I've got some chow habits now that are affordable and good.
Breakfast in summer has been generic cheerios with vanilla yogurt, and fresh fruit. Winter I still like peanut butter and any jelly but grape on pumpernickel or marble rye. (Marmalade on pumpernickel is awesome with the pb) Salad lunch and often dinner. Various veg and potato or rice for a hot meal too. Posted by: barbarausa at July 29, 2024 10:50 PM (enw9G) 181
Here's a new one on me:
I was driving outside of London and noticed sign that listed a maximum average speed zone. Turns out that on certain stretches of highway in the UK they log your car's plate number when entering the zone, and log it again when you exit. If you traversed the zone too quickly, the system automatically generates a citation that they mail to you. That once-proud Brits would stand for such a chickenshit enforcement technique made me lose what respect I had left for our Limey cousins.

Piper, I'm not as worried about the food being pleasing to the eye so much as pleasing to my health AND my pocketbook. (newly on social security, and determined to live within it to conserve my capital until I decide what I want to do with widowhood)
Meat has become a flavoring and a garnish, unless on sale. Tuna is great protein, and eggs. Beans and rice are great too, whether latin-flavored or asian. Where I go nuts are the salads: various greens, little tomatoes, cukes, onions, dried cranberries (also better in oatmeal cookies than raisins--too sweet!), various vinaigrettes, cheese and some meat or fish if it's going to be a meal salad. I don't buy or make it unless I'm going to eat it all, but I don't mind leftovers. Sweets, I bake because it's cheaper (and GOOD!) Oatmeal/cranberry/choc chip often, rice pudding (sometimes with cranberries--I make the swedish recipe I got from my MIL, and while I don't eat it hot with lingonberry jam, tossing a coupe handfuls of dried crans in the custard before it bakes is very good, at least IMO.)

Totally get it. Watch your tuna intake because of mercury. Don’t be dissuaded from buying white fish filets that are flash frozen, they are economical and healthy. Also, don’t get wound up with organic chicken breast, etc. frankly, chicken thighs are economical and great protein, you can rip the skin off yourself and save even more. Ground chicken, ground turkey, ground beef are all fine. A meat serving is the size of your palm. Your grain (rice, couscous, etc) is the size of your fist. The rest of your plate is veggies. Frozen veggies are just fine, too, as is frozen fruit. We end up meatless 2 or 3 times a week not by design or on purpose, but it’s just how it happens.

barbarausa, are you somewhere you can have chickens? Not only do they provide nutritious, delicious eggs, but their poop is a great fertilizer (strong enough to burn plants if you apply directly without composting), and they provide hours of entertainment if you let them roam in the grass to hunt bugs.

Today's adventure was to fire up the old '47 Flxible coach. I had the battery charge on it for about 20 hours. Went out, crossed the necessary wires, and that sweet old 903 Cummins lit off first piston up. No go-go juice needed.
Got the air pressure up, no leaks; fixed them the last time. Got the maxi brake released, spent some time finding reverse gear, and eventually found it, and backed out of the ruts it had made over the winter. Drove up to the shop; figured I'd air up the tires if any needed it. All but the outside dually on the driver's side were good, but that one had a huge hole in the tube. Would not hold air at all. Put a jack under the leaf spring, and lifted the left rear wheel about an inch. Brought out the 3/4" drive air impact, and after a LOT of rattling, got the ten lug nuts off. Took the bad wheel into the tire shop. They said they can fix it. Came home, and did a little body work on the front corner of the the coach. Because it is there. Got the driver's side fresh-air vent working like new. Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at July 30, 2024 12:07 AM (WRCWw) 330

My only regret for Rush is that they didn't break up in 1990 or so, form three more bands with fresh, new influences, and reunite every other year to perform all their good music -- which was all, in my opinion, from before 1990.
Neil, Alex, and Geddy in three separate new groups would have sparked a fire that had all but been extinguished by 1990. I saw them for the Roll the Bones tour in Worcester. We had a whole cigarette pack full of bones we had rolled, all exactly the size of cigarettes. Every one we lit, passed, and never saw again.

Hey Horde, what are this evening's happenings an events??
I was fortunate enough to drive my Great-Uncle to work for a summer. He passed on a trove of wisdom to me. He told me that when he started out as a lawyer after studying Entomology at the state school, with $60 sewn into the lining of his coat, to last him for a year of study, he charged the most piddliest of fees to draw a will or notarize something. He said that his family told him, why that is chickenfeed and he replied that it is chicken feed which makes the chicken fat. That sounds like Mark Twain to me, but anyway he died a weathy man.

I knew some people who, for some reason, had a Peugeot 504 in New Orleans.
One daughter filled the diesel with gasoline.... Hilarity ensued. I tried to calm her down by explaining that "no, your dad won't be mad, that's how they clean diesels anyway".

In Oregon it is customary for the Governor's office to ask the various agencies what laws they would like to see promoted, it goes along with the general public looking for various laws.
I suspect there should have also been a request from the Governor's office for "what legislative changes can we make to make the lives and business of the people subject to your enforcement easier and streamline the processes they need to comply with regulations?"

I listened to the latest Barnes and Baris video blog (Episode 71) and Trump is beating Harris by a 68% to 23% margin with the working white class in the Midwest, and if the leaners are considered, Harris is only getting 15% - Trump has that great of a lead over leaners, too.
For comparison, Hillary! and Biden were getting between 30% and 32% of the vote with this class. Posted by: Sasquatch, the Original Trans-Wookie at July 30, 2024 12:59 AM (dq+Yy) 420

I'm not sure what's going on in Venezuela. I've seen video of both troops and police joining protests, and also protesters on a tank.

That Kawasaki article, obviously the author doesn't actually know what he is writing about:
Para1: Hydrogen has some benefits where it is applicable as a fuel source, and these are the fact that it has a high energy density and very low emissions. Para 2: But there is one disadvantage to using hydrogen fuel: storage and transportation of the hydrogen fuel. Hydrogen has a lower energy density as compared to gasoline. Make up your mind. In fact it's lousy as a fuel as far as energy density. Now tell us how long the engine lasts before it becomes too brittle. Don't get me started on H2 as a fuel for consumer vehicles.

Baris is also adamant that the VP pick has no bearing on the state results. Ryan didn't even deliver his own district, much less the state.
I also listened to the episode. Curious to see the results when he finishes the poll. His initial read seems to be that Harris is not playing at all in PA or other places they have to have to win. Outside of polling, I'm waiting for their campaign to do something. The ralliies aren't even filling high school gyms. These two zoom calls haven't even been attended by her, and she has been fine two golden opportunities to show she can be Presidential and she's done nothing. Abortion and woke preening aren't going to get her closer to make the cheating easier. Posted by: Dave in Fla at July 30, 2024 01:16 AM (5p7BC) 432
I still say this is the Dems giving Kamalalaladingbat a good time before giving her The Kiss of Death at the Convention. Just like 'The Friends of Eddie Coyle'. A last night at a Bruins game, with Number Four Bobby Orr. Then lights out.
Obama didn't want her but Joey -- or Jilly -- pulled off one last 'fuck you' to the eloquent black man whom he hates. And who hates him. 'You wanna stop me from runnin', boy? Cornpop couldn't stop me from runnin'. But anyway, so here, boy, here's your new candidate. She's got my endorsement. Choke on that.' Took Barry a few days to swallow that and give her his endorsement. But it's all for show. Once her unfavorables hit the the Dem insiders like a ton of bricks, just as Joey's did, she'll get tossed aside at the convention, with her payoff being given the green light to kick Joey out with the 25th and become 47. But no second bite for her. A 7 month president, no matter what. She'll go down in history breaking the pink ceiling -- and also breaking Hillary.

CA hires artists that seemingly do drugs, lots of drugs, all kinds of drugs from what I can tell. One artist I like a bunch named his company "One Drop." I am not an expert about how things are printed but these seem to hand pulled in small batches. I have one that is a signed artist proof and one that is numbered. Not all get numbered though. Still, these are great posters and well worth framing. Posted by: Altaria Pilgram at July 30, 2024 03:39 AM (WsTZq) 539
