Hadrian , legislators even the good ones are endlessly cajoled, buttonholes, criticized, etc by the media, the executive branch, their voters, and their constituents. Then the demeaning calls to donors, endless in the House, and at least several years of a six year term. Then travel, having to maintain two households unless you live nearby, etc.
Over time a lot of people sour in the job. Cabinet secretaries don't actually run most departments but no quorum calls, no constituents other than the president, better travel opportunities, and when back in private land, a jump up a league in the k street lobbying firms.

Fashion: Melania IS the most fashionable first lady we've had since Jackie. She wears clothes, they don't wear her. Take that stunning floral Dolce & Gabbana coat she wore at the G7 summit. No other person wears that and doesn't have the coat overwhelm their presence. Looking forward to seeing her first lady fashion choices again. https://tinyurl.com/yjfxpuj3 Movies: Saving Private Ryan and Inglorious Basterds both have amazing opening sequences. The scene with Kristolf Waltz hunting the Jewish kids...chilling. The rest doesn't measure up to the opening, especially since Tarantino doesn't know how to reign in his excesses.

Hey all - if you're so inclined, I'd appreciate prayers for good health. I had an episode last night that, in an abundance of caution, ended with an ER visit. They didn't find anything of interest, but I'm following up with a doc tomorrow and will probably have some additional testing done. Could be nothing, but once you get past 29 it's not a good idea to ignore possible issues. Thanks.

I suck at fishing, which is especially unfortunate when you live near some of the best fishing in the country. Usually what I manage to catch, if anything, looks like the "before" photo on a tin of sardines. Meanwhile, I've got friends who routinely pull monster salmon and steelhead out of the rivers. I rely on Costco to supply me with wild sockeye.

They'll want another white woman, like Hillary, though. To save "First Black Woman President" or "First Latina President" for another election. Like how Bill was the "first black president" because he was kind of cool and played the saxophone. Then Obama could be the "first black president" who was part black. They've still got the "first 100% black president" chip to play some year, too, after Obama is out of the picture.

Actually, Musk hasn't yet had much impact on technology. Starlink is the biggest in terms of how widespread its influence is. Tesla cars? Electric hotrods for conspicuous consumers. No real new ground broken there. SpaceX? A major improvement over existing space vehicles, but it doesn't put food on my plate, or provide me with a salary. Yet. I am not trying to belittle the guy. He is making great strides in several fields of endeavor, but they are kind of peripheral to how most of us live.

That means vacancies for several months at a minimum, and the possibility of losing one or more of those seats in special elections.

Trump as well as his Senior Advisor Jared Kushner, at his Mar-a-Lago Home in Florida. During his meeting on Sunday, as well as his meeting on Monday with Senior Biden Officials, Dermer is said to have discussed the ongoing War in both Gaza and Lebanon as well as the possibility of a Ceasefire on both Fronts. OSINTdefender @sentdefender 37m The Israel’s Newly-Appointed Minister of Defense, Israel Katz stated yesterday during his First Meeting with General Staff Forum as well as other Military and Defense Officials, “Iran is today more exposed than ever to damage to its Nuclear Facilities.

Lee de Forest
Posted by: Bertram Cabot, Jr. at November 11, 2024 11:32 PM (63Dwl) Interesting story there. de Forest invented the triode vacuum tube, which he called the "audion", and proved that it could amplify signals. Thomas Edison had previously invented, and patented the diode vacuum tube, but considered it a curiosity, and never realized its potential usefulness. But when de Forest tried to patent the audion, Edison sued him for infringement, IIRC. Edison really didn't understand the physics of what he had invented. He was trying to find a means of preventing light bulbs from going black when metal sputtered of the filament condensed on the inside of the bulb. Adding a charge plate didn't help that.

Hatari. That Nikon spotting scope is no joke.
Do not ever sell it. They didn't sell all that many of those, and they were OMG expensive for them to make. Most folks don't know. But Nikon was one of the FEW Japanese lens makers that formulated and made their own glass. Olympus, another. The third? Fujinon. And all through the 80s/90s, Fuji TV lenses were the NFL standard on their broadcast cameras. It would take a historical detective though, to undwind the DNA of the Japanese camera industry, post WWII. That multi-thousand $ Contax has it's roots in the humble Yashica SLRs of the 70s. Contax's Made in Japan "Zeiss" lenses? Zeiss optical design, rendered in Japanese glass, in Japanese (former) Yashica factories. Someone would have to enlighten me, as to any CURRENT U.S. maker of PREMIUM optical glass. For any application. Fair warning. The art and science of Optical Glass is one hell of a Deep Dive.

Not liking the Bressent appointment.
He helped Soros break the British pound, and did the same to Japan. He would not think of Soros as evil. It was probably just a good business decision in his mind, and he made a billion doing it. He may well be loyal to Trump. Or he could be up to no good whatsoever. Or he could be the exact sort of cutthroat SOB we need at Treasury. He could be All of the Above. He seems to have been advising Trump in his last term to some extent, and things went well, so... guess we wait and see. But I don't like the Soros connection. At all. I do love that he has clearly learned a lesson about not allowing Swamp Creatures in. I want more Homan types and less Yale types , though.

Canon manufactures its own glass and processes it into finished lenses. It's Utsunomiya plant is where where their SLR/DSLR "L" series EF lenses were made. I didn't look this up but I would be surprised if their RL mirrorless cameras body lenses, which replaced the EF "L" series, are not made in the same factory. I own at least two (this is exactly like being 29 years old) of the EF "L" lenses, prime and zoom. The EF 35 mm 1.4, 50 mm 1.2, 85 mm 1.2 are counted among the finest lenses ever made. My personal experience has found this to be true.

525, I’m no expert, but I think of George Schulz from the Reagan era. You’re supposed to make nice with foreign countries and also confront them when we have issues. You’re supposed to implement the president’s policies, but also be really good at speaking to people from other cultures.
I know Rubio is not on many issues. He was crap on the border a decade ago. But he has been a strong supporter of Trump recently, and he does articulate the issues as well. Of course, he hast to have some voice of his own, but in the end, his job is to help the president articulate his voice to the rest of the world. That’s just my view on it. I didn’t pick the guy supposedly Trump did. Posted by: Quint at November 12, 2024 03:12 AM (pRYBG) 528

Canon's upper end SLR and even upper end rangefinder lenses were always made of in house glass. Into the 80s n 90s though, they had a lot of really cheap, 35mm consumer grade stuff. Some even had some polycarbonate elements in the focal groups. THOSE were not made by the Utsunomiya plant. Malaysia, IIRC. Canon T-70, (and your "kit" lenses), I'm lookin' at you, kid.

Traditionally Secretary of State is the number one cabinet position. There’s no question about that. But also traditionally it’s not about the border. It’s not about small government. It’s not about a bunch of the issues we chose Trump for. It is the top position for international relations. And presenting the United States to the rest of the world. I will say this anyone that Trump chooses needs to clearly state. His plan is to root out the anti-Americanism in the US state department.

THOSE were not made by the Utsunomiya plant. Malaysia, IIRC. Yes. The kit lenses are a consequence of expanding the market for SLR/DSLRs. They are complete trash while being quite serviceable for entry grade gear. Canon at one time had entry level things masquerading as camera lenses, a mid-range series that lacked in build quality but performed remarkably well (the EF 50 mm 1.4 and the EF 28 mm-135mm IS 3.5-5.6 as two examples), and the "L" series. Today, as a result of the transition to mirrorless optics, the mid-range lenses have disappeared. I recently took a hard look at the premium RF lens line up at it still has a number of holes in it that Canon is still working at filling. I wouldn't be surprised if Canon reintroduces the mid-range when they finally reach build out. I am fussing around with of picking up a Sony a7CR which packs a 60 megapixel sensor into a body about the size of a rangefinder box. I may start with a couple Samyang or Viltrox lenses due to their compact size, excellent optics, and remarkably low cost. Posted by: Altaria Pilgram at November 12, 2024 03:36 AM (vO42M) 544

Trump apparently is looking at putting Musk in charge of AI policy.
This is not sitting well with the Marxist tech commentators whom I find tedious and amusing. Everything with them boils down to this, "Elon Musk is a fascist who belongs nowhere near any public office in the United States." When you are a Marxist you mortal enemy is Fascism. From that sense the nitwit that wrote this quote labeled Musk correctly from a Marxist perspective even though I doubt he or she has a clue about the what constitutes an actual Fascist. So far none of these commentators are talking about emigrating which I find disappointing, watching attempt to them inflict their petulance elsewhere would be most amusing.
