Ah, NBC telling tall tales again. Security researcher disputes NBC's Sochi hacking incident.
There's been a bit of blowback from the report, even from the expert that NBC turned to during its report on online security in Sochi, Russia. To begin with, the team actually wasn't even there, they were in Moscow, and this points to a bigger issue: the hacking that NBC News experienced would have likely been the same regardless of location, as it happened while hitting up Olympic-themed websites and willingly downloading (hostile) Android apps. It had nothing to do with connecting to public WiFi, at least in the instances shown during the report.

Beer And Wine Pairings
Alright morons, you should be getting your Girl Scout cookies soon to nibble on while perusing the ONT. That being said, perhaps you should know your beer and wine pairings for Girl Scout cookies.
Compulsion Orgasmic
Woman wins right to fap at work. Compulsion orgasmic is a condition? Good lord, just about every guy suffers from this.
Brazilian woman Ana Catarian Bezerra, has won the right to masturbate and watch pornography in the workplace.The 36-year-old accountant, suffers from a chemical imbalance that triggers anxiety and hypersexuality. She is said to need to masturbate for at least fifteen minutes every two hours.
The condition, that requires the sufferer to orgasm to relieve stress and anxiety, caused Ms Bezerra difficulty at work. At the peak of her condition she was having to masturbate up to forty-seven times a day.
This is a landmark trial, which see’s the condition known as ‘compulsion orgasmic’ and the need to orgasm recognized by law.
Somehow, I don't think this will fly in the States but you never know.

Allowance
So what is the "fair" allowance rate these days for kids? I told my kids they are unpaid interns. They're falling for it for now. I'm sure we'll have to start paying minimum wage for this at some point.
There's been a big jump in the number of parents who are giving their children allowances bigger than $10 or $20 a week, according to numbers crunched for Reuters by Baltimore-based money managers T. Rowe Price, which are derived from its annual Parents, Kids & Money surveys.Meanwhile, tthe percentage of parents giving sub-$10 weekly stipends fell from 77.3 percent in 2011 to 68.4 percent in 2013, a drop of almost 9 percentage points, according to the survey.

I don't want to come off as just another liberal whiner, but my parents were ridiculous. They thought a quarter a week was good. I personally believe this is *one* of the reasons I never really learned personal monthly budgeting all that well and still have some trouble with it. Meanwhile most of my friends were getting at least $5. Bear in mind, this was in the late 1970s.
My approach to allowances for kids: be somewhat generous, say $20 a week (ducks for super-conservative horde members who think that's outrageous). BUT... (a) it can be docked for a bad attitude, skipping chores or just plain bad/defiant behavior; (b) parents get a say in how it gets spent and/or saved; and (c) anything above and beyond gets either a 'no' or a usurious repayment plan.

That's pretty much what it says at the link, except that it is saying that it is the "original" that was altered back to the state it was in before it got a great big "canceled and reissued" stamp over it. 'Cause back in the day, that's what you did when a kid was adopted before moving to Indonesia and claiming citizenship rights under the name "Barry Soetero". You canceled the old one with a stamp, and reissued a new one with his new name.

It's pretty good on the horizontal, but as an old fart who has actually filled out forms with a typewriter, his vertical thing is much weaker. A lot of times, you pushed the clutch in on the roller and eyeballed yourself onto the line in the blank. That was especially the case for checkboxes. And that wouldn't preserve the vertical spacing.

Very good! Yes -- per wikipedia: "The Selectric II had a lever (at the top left of the "carriage") that allowed characters to be shifted up to a half space to the left (for centering text, or for inserting a word one character longer or shorter in place of a deleted mistake), whereas the Selectric I did not. This option was available only on dual pitch models."
Unfortunately for his 1961 birth certificate, the Selectric II came out in 1971.

Now let's imagine that one of us here were to find out... he/she wasn't actually born in the US. He/she was born in Canada, or South Africa, or someplace else. Let's also imagine that this information, while found, is still so obscure that it can be reasonably assumed that the liberal-friendly press (but I repeat myself) won't find it.
We all know that if this *were* actually the case with the Dems' candidate, the truth would never come to light. So can you tell me, definitively, that Republicans would reveal the truth about their own candidate?

In several places on the document, typewritten characters fall in places that are in between where they should be if they were typed in one setting at a typewriter.
I've seen other attempted proofs that the document is fake, and many of them are much harder to understand. Lord Monckton's proof is elegant in it's simplicity.
Posted by: D-Lamp at February 07, 2014 11:24 PM (bb5+k)
That could happen, easily enough, if you simply pulled the document out of the typewriter, unfinished, in order to work on another, and reloaded it later to complete the job. Look, I am sure there is a lot of fishy stuff about Obama's BC, but none of the evidence offered so far is dispositive. And no offense to Lord Monckton is implied.

Today, at some unknown point, it started leaking. Fortunately, I was cooking tonight and noticed what at first appeared to be a spill. Then I noticed the mat in front of the refrigerator was all wet on the underside. I pulled out the fridge and discovered the valve for the ice maker feed was dripping steadily away.
So now the whole house is without incoming water until it can be fixed. I wish I could claim the skills to deal with it myself. The 24 hour Walmart in Canyon Country probably has everything I'd need for a temporary repair, at least.

Today, at some unknown point, it started leaking. Fortunately, I was cooking tonight and noticed what at first appeared to be a spill. Then I noticed the mat in front of the refrigerator was all wet on the underside. I pulled out the fridge and discovered the valve for the ice maker feed was dripping steadily away.
So now the whole house is without incoming water until it can be fixed. I wish I could claim the skills to deal with it myself. The 24 hour Walmart in Canyon Country probably has everything I'd need for a temporary repair, at least.

If the valve is mounted on a plate, remove the plate and see if the valve is on plastic tubing. If it is, pull it out of the wall, fold it over, and wrap it thoroughly with rubber bands. That should do it.

That, too -- it's probably under the kitchen sink and comes off the water supply to a plastic tube, which then goes into the wall or floor. The tube is probably only about 1/4".

Can't really tell. It's very low to the ground and lacking in light to see by. I was main;y concerned with getting something under it and then turning off the main feed to the house. The only thing I could find that would fit under it was a frying pan. Turning on the kitchen and downstairs bathroom sinks full blast deprived it of water pretty quickly.
If we can get a guy out to fix it tomorrow it won't be too bad. If we don't need to flush too often. I suppose we can turn the water back on if necessary for long enough to refill the toilet tank.

If the feed tube is copper (and your not going to use it) Cut it bend it 180deg (a tight u essentially) and pinch that 180deg as tight as you can with a pair of pliers. Should seal it well enough to turn your wter back on. Also if it is a stab type hook up there will be a valve at it's source.

Come on, in 1961 a pregnant college student is going to fly halfway around the world on some rickety planes to give birth in a shithole hospital in Nairobi? It's also unlikely that Barry Sr would bring her there to give birth to a mixed race baby and show off his white wife to his ebony black family. Africans aren't all that enlightened about interracial relationships now, and they certainly weren't in 1961
It's not the where that Jugears doesn't want the public to know, it's possibly the who listed under "father"
It may be either "unknown" or "Franklin Marshall Davis"

Shake it to remove the water near the end and melt the end of the plastic tube closed with a lighter. You could also kink the line before the melted tip to reduce pressure.

It seems apparent Obama doesn't want the full details of his birth to come out. I bet if you gathered some DNA samples from his supposed Kenyan half-siblings, you'd run into extreme resistance trying to get a sample from BHO.

Stop it! You're making me hungry!
One of my wildest culinary adventures was going to the Culinary Institute of America's "Greystone" restaurant in Napa, looking over the menu, and telling the server that I had expected to see a tasting menu. He said, "hold on", went away for a bit, came back and named a price. We waddled out of there three and a half hours later.....
The CIA is a premier top-quality cooking school. We figure that the deal in the back was that anyone who needed to make up a lesson missed in the previous year could get it approved by the master chefs and served to table 12. It was amazing! Our server was training for Sommelier and did wine pairings.

At 24 yrs old I knew better than to say yes to this BS and standing up and saying NO was all I had to do to stop it (actually I said here are the forms you sign them).

Notwithstanding the fact that a highly recognized document examiner (Reed Hayes) has expressed his professional opinion (20 years experience, and he has worked repeatedly for Perkins Coie, the law firm representing Obama in this matter) that the document is a forgery.

It was beyond good, it was awesome -- they'd put a few things on each plate, and the plates were stacking up. When the server came, we had him explain each thing to us....then we'd have each one and savor it [usually another plate would show up during this], and the BH and I would compare thoughts about it [and another plate might show up]. Thank God none of them were full-sized, 'cause we'd have 'sploded.
They don't allow first-year students to cook for the restaurant -- it's something like: first years bus, second years prep, third years sous-chef, and only the students who are about to graduate actually cook -- and they are being watched over by master-chefs who critique the quality of their output, the efficiency of their methods, maintenance of hygiene and safety, and their presentation.
The whole thing was a fun lark at the beginning, but the end was such a wild frenzy it was amazing.

Did you have a card to fill out to rate the stuff since it was being prepared by students? Or is the restaurant just practice for the students?

No, the diners don't fill out cards. The master-chefs are doing the evaluations, and they're looking to graduate people to work in top restaurants -- you can get as many demerits from being slow or fucking up your workflow as from serving something that doesn't taste right. Working in the restaurant is training -- how orders surge and ebb, how you can be cruising along with steaks and chicken and have a lone venison order cramp your style, how much you can rely on other people and how much you can't, and how moving something from the left side of a burner to the right can break hygiene.
We've had quite a few truly gourmet meals, and dining at the CIA was right up there -- combined with circus.

That's very good advice. I'm thinking you might take a swig of it as well.
I honestly cannot fathom how you can attempt to explain these very obvious discontinuities on " lens distortion ".
Look at the misplaced "X" right beneath the "B" in Barack. Notice "Barack is perfect, but the X is distinctly wrong. Look at the "A" in "August" while "Hussein" and "Hospital" are in perfect alignment.
The word "None" lines up with the grid, but directly up above it, the word "August" does not.
It just seems to be asking a lot out of a sloppy typewriter to be so discriminatory in some cases, but not others.

When I was teaching one of the smartest students in terms of finance was a young lady who was given an few hundred dollars/month but she had to buy whatever she needed/wanted out of it except groceries: so clothes and any other fashion items as well.

I was born and raised and live today in California, and I'm thinking of moving to North Carolina. I, honestly, could laugh off someone taking five years to decide that I might be an acceptable sort of damned Yankee......but how much of the countryside is actually unsafe? After all, one reason I'd be moving there is to get some acreage.

I'm not saying this because I flew over at 30,000 feet -- I did a bit of boots-on-the-ground investigation last May. But I'm specifically looking to be a little bit further out than the usual transplants in the Containment Area. I can get more acreage there; I can live more cheaply there; I can do things more freely there, and I can have more opportunities to contribute to my community there....but not if my neighbors are going to start plinking at me.
Incidentally, the BH has successfully set up a branch of her tech support department in High Point. On her very first visit there, before it was set-up, her rental car's tires were slashed in her hotel's parking lot. After she'd hired everyone in and set things up, her supervisor had a run-in at work with an employee who lived in the same apartment complex that he did.....and his tires were slashed overnight some days later. WTF is with tire-slashing in the Triad? Is that shit common in all of NC?

No problem man. I have worked in the industry for around 12 years.
Seriously, you do not want to know how your food is made. That is why I never have worked in any sort of lab that dealt with meat products.

In further support of project 'Green Acres', I've been thinking of raising my own chickens and cattle.....and I'm not sure (having not tried it) how my revulsion at killing off livestock that I've raised from chicks and calves might compare to my revulsion at eating chemical-laced, antibiotic-laden, pieced-together, factory-farmed, feedlotted meat that is attractively packaged in nice little trays.

I'm with you, there -- I generally figure that the food I consume is "safe" enough. And, frankly, most of the time I read "organic" as "bacteria-infested" rather than some sort of amulet of authenticity. But when you look at the meat industry, there are several disturbing things that jump out -- like the wild overuse of antibiotics, mislabeled cuts, ground beef that is mixed between hundreds or thousands of animals.....

greasemonkey script, so you have to add that first, and then there's a
script that maintains a list called "SCoaMT peeps" [yeah, it's built by a
moron] that disappear in your browser.

I believe that it is probably the one that you get when you "search user scripts" for AoSHQ (gets you five possibles) and choose the most popular (533 at present). That's not how I got it, and I'd scan the code before installing, but it looks like it.

Incidentally, has anyone else been noticing that the price of food seems to be declining? I'm thinking that the recently-passed Ag bill may have had some sort of "keep food costs low until after the elections" thing in it.
