— Maetenloch Starting early to get the average back down...
President Obama has a bad habit of denigrating his predecessors - usually inaccurately - and last week he indulged this unpleasant trait again by dissing President Rutherford B. Hayes as a luddite:
One of my predecessors, Rutherford B. Hayes, reportedly said about the telephone, 'It's a great invention, but who would ever want to use one?' That's why he's not on Mount Rushmore because he's looking backwards. He's not looking forwards.
And as is typical he was just wrong - it turns out that Hayes was quite the early adopter of technology:
Hayes, in fact, was such a technology buff that he installed the first telephone in the White House [in 1877, just months after it was demonstrated]. A list of telephone subscribers published in the article "The Telephone Comes to Washington," by Richard T. Loomis, shows that the White House was given the number "1."
And furthermore the B in Rutherford B. Hayes stood for Badass:
When the Civil War began, Hayes left a successful political career to join the Union Army. Wounded five times, most seriously at the Battle of South Mountain, he earned a reputation for bravery in combat and was promoted to the rank of major general. After the war, he served in the U.S. Congress from 1865 to 1867 as a Republican. Hayes left Congress to run for Governor of Ohio and was elected to two consecutive terms, serving from 1867 to 1871.
...Hayes believed in meritocratic government, equal treatment without regard to race, and improvement through education. He ordered federal troops to quell the Great Railroad Strike of 1877 and ordered them out of Southern capitals as Reconstruction ended. He implemented modest civil service reforms that laid the groundwork for further reform in the 1880s and 1890s. Hayes kept his pledge not to run for re-election. He retired to his home in Ohio and became an advocate of social and educational reform
Leave it to Obama to falsely insult a better man than himself.
The most fundamental fact about the ideas of the political left is that they do not work. Therefore we should not be surprised to find the left concentrated in institutions where ideas do not have to work in order to survive.
Has Israel Voted to Bomb Iran?
Ben Caspit reports (Hebrew) that the cabinet now has, for the first time, a majority (eight votes for, six votes against) favoring the measure. This means that theoretically Bibi can begin an attack at any time. Of course, it could mean something different: it could mean the cabinet has approved a strike at any point in future with Bibi determining the timing. So it doesn't necessarily mean the F-16s will fly tonight or tomorrow....A senior official said Bibi believed it would be best not to wait for the November presidential elections because he didn't trust the president to deal with the problem after the election.
And based on these rumors oil prices have jumped to $126/barrel. So the question arises - where are the American carriers? Well two (CVN-72 and CVN-70) are already in the Gulf and the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) is on its way.
Meanwhile this is the kind of 'peace' that Israel currently enjoys. This video was shot last week in the city of Ashod while it was under attack by Palestinian rockets fired from Gaza.
You had me at taser.
Ultimate Tak Ball is an indoor sport wherein you try to deposit a large soccer ball into a goal while the other team tries to stop you with stun guns. As in, you're running along and then the defender tasers you
This is a game that requires balls of non-conductive material.
It's Tough Out There For a Math Genius
Sure he can solve the Poincaré conjecture, win the Fields Medal, and even be offered (and reject) a $1 million prize but that's not enough to make Grigori Perelman happy.
In 2006 he was unemployed and living with his mother on the outskirts of the city. It is reported that he retired from mathematics, finding it too painful and political.
When the New Yorker interviewed Perelman shortly after he declined the highest prize in mathematics, he said, while taking the journalist on a long walk through St. Petersburg, "I'm looking for some friends, and they don't have to be mathematicians."
Maybe some math groupies would help.
UMASS Undergraduate Engineering Class, 1959-1999
Class pictures taken over 40 years. I'd say the classes of 1959 and 1993 were the snappiest dressers.

Good evening, good people. Went to one of our local ice cream stores today that just opened for the year--couple weeks early. I took the Toy, and discovered that a crapload of others wanted to show off the iron, too. A ton of heavy duty Detroit iron, mixed with some gorgeous oldies. Talked with some guys I know and a bunch of new friends.
Just a fine way to spend a couple of Sunday hours.

*sighs*. All I can say is that you can't let 10-20 minutes of crap ruin 100 hours of gold. Bioware pretty much has to release some kind of DLC to attempt to rectify their ending CF (I know it sucks, but not having played it yet, I don't know the details). What would be really interesting to see is future content involving the other races. Could they incorporate story-lines with the other races say the hanar or the elcor into the main narrative? The potential for at least a quasi-redemption of ME3 is there.
The problem is that its about like Merovign said, you can't do a DLC to clarify/correct. You need to DLC to completely redo the ending. Otherwise you can't do much in the way of redemption. Hell almost everything you end up doing in the game becomes pretty pointless with what decision you are left with. And with the ending they gave I don't think incorporating other storylines can do anything. They may have claimed that this would merely be the end of Shepard's story but I don't even see how you could do other stories with the big old steamer of an ending they gave.

Now some of this may be rational decisionmaking: "If nobody else likes it, probably I won't either." But there's also a desire to be on the "winning team" so to speak. "I saw that movie that everyone else saw and liked. I am a member of the tribe."

SOS:
I had been gone for several days and was sorry to read that your beater had been vandalized again. Glad to hear that the night supervisor vandalizing your workspace got the boot AND forfeited her last paycheck.
Sounds like you have made good friends with Wolverine and your new "crew." I think some of the 20-somethings want to be mentored by us old f*cks. The kids at my engineering college are suprised when I tell them I flunked out of college the first time around because I learned to like dark beer too much -- I tell them to learn from my mistakes.
Good luck at work tomorrow. However, I think most of the people that had been causing you trouble are now dreading management linking them to any of the death-threats you had received and will be giving you a wide berth. I think only your beater is going to be vulnerable: you should probably just ask the Managing Director to let you park your car next to the front doors for a couple of weeks while this plays out.
Looking forward to hearing about the future *Adventures of StuckonStupid and His Young Ward, Wolverine.*

Saw John Carter and loved it. It could have had better writing in spots, but everything else, including the CGI, was amazing. And people are watching the Lorax instead of this!???? I would watch the sequel if there was any chance there'd be one.
Walking Dead was pretty dang good too. Glad to see one of my favorite characters from the book show up. Lots of zombie killin', too.
I'm heading back to Oklahoma tomorrow to start the new job. The Teenage Son is staying with my parents until the school year is over. That part is gonna be tough, but it'll give me time to find a good apartment and have things set up before he comes over. After the general crap of the last year, things are looking up.

There was no compelling reason to like or to watch Avatar. There was no one to identify with. It was aimed at an adolescent mind and attitude and calculated to try and amuse and amaze with special effects.
I have tried to watch it a couple of times and turned away from after about 5 minutes each time. I've seen boring and dumb movies in my life, but that one is just childish and not entertaining.
In point of fact, it is much like "Titanic", in that it takes what appear to be high production values and attachs a childish story line with unlikable leading characters. I think this is Cameron's basic weakness, in that he is too egotistical to take advice from good screenplay writers in constructing plots and characters.

You have to take Cameron to court to get him to acknowledge the sources he rips off. He could have had full license for a trifling amount by his standards but he cannot stand to admit he isn't chock full of original ideas.
Cameron is a really good 2nd unit director who got swept up by the Peter Principle.

This American experiment is like hell over. If and when we run out of people like SOS and the ones who populate our military, then you can truthfully claim such.
It is my firm belief that the bedrock is yet too solid for the country to fail. Difficult times, surely, but I know in my heart we will prevail. Laugh at me for saying this if you wish, I couldn't care less.
Long ago, I swore an oath to defend my constitution and my country--that oath is as true today as then. Whatever must be done to preserve this country MUST be done.
Now it is time for the old folk.
Goodnite, good people. Stay safe.

I haunt the White House. I can see everything, even Barack on the crapper. Once I pushed a bottle of Lectric Shave onto the floor, and he jumped must have been a foot in the air and dropped a small log on his trousers. He cleaned his pants for about ten minutes and then kind of snuck back to his quarters change. I don't ever see him and Michelle having sex, because of course, they don't.
But know this: after how he just dissed me, man, you ain't seen nothin yet.

Going to a movie should be fun and entertaining, but what a 16 year old likes as entertainment might be a bit different than someone over 40 or over 50.
My younger son dragged us to see "I Love You, Man" a few years ago, and I really had a lot of fun watching it. But when a movie deliberately insults your intelligence and values with a poor story and boring , one -dimensional characters while trying to WOW you with special effects, it's just a waste of time.
Buckeroo Banzai was a really silly, campy movie, that had ridiculously poor special effects, yet is was funny and entertaining and witty, because the people who made the movie knew what they were making, and the roles were cast accordingly. It was absurd, it was supposed to be absurd, yet it was funny because they never took themselves too seriously.

Poul Anderson's widow doesn't have the same strength or resources as Harlan did. I am doing some e-book work for her right now and part of that, eventually, is countering some rip-off editions that have popped up on Amazon.

I hear you, No idea aout our troops, but I don't know that Israel iyself has many opyions although I know they will act in the best manner for their country. I have little faith in our administration , I have wondered for a while if the troops being there at this time is an advantage to us , honestly i don't know with the mideast having a nervous breakdown at this point, It might be to our advantage that they (other countries)might not be able to mobilize?
on the other hand you might be right, the leaders of said countries could use it to their advanatge to turn the populations anger from them to Israel which has always been what they use to hold their population from coming after themselves.

1. Who cares if it rallies the Iranian population against the west? Another Muslim country that hates us. Big deal.
2. The mullahs have never retaliated against U.S. or western military action: Operation Praying Mantis in 1988; the 2007 SAS raid into Iran to kill the EFP builders, gun runners, and financiers; the attacks on Iranian "diplomatic convoys" in Baghdad that Petraeus authorized; the accidental shooting down of Iran Air Flight 655 by the U.S. Navy in 1988, and so on.
3. Israel is busily blowing up Iranian nuclear facilities, and the Iranians are trying to hush it up. Two more explosions today. No retaliation, and no ability to stop these attacks.
We're done invading countries. Two carrier battle groups could lay waste to the entire country of Iran if necessary, while the Israelis go in and settle Hezbollah's hash for good. Hezbollah fired 700 state-of-the-art Kornet antitank missiles in the 2006 war. Know how many Israelis tanks they destroyed? Two. And both crews survived.
Iran is nothing. It has no capabilities whatsoever compared to the U.S., Israel, and now the Sunni Arab Gulf states.

Have you reset your router or modem at all recently? Sometime even unplugging it can do that. Or it could have just been something your ISP did. It can happen pretty regularly but usually doesn't.

Did you need to reset your router? Apparently if your router is turned off it can have a new IP when turned on again (I think).

When polls from the game players run in the 60-40 range of good/bad to 40-60 and all variations between that you have a "controversial" ending. When its running 95-5 (and that's probably being generous) in it being a bad ending then its not controversial. You fucked up.
You should hope that your dedicated fans are nitpicking at plotholes in the game. If they are being critical of just some discrepency in the dialogue between two games then you've done a pretty good job. But I haven't really heard much criticism about the number of Ardat Yakshi that are supposed to be in existence between ME2 and 3.

Some of you may not have heard of this yet because the order was just issued on Friday.
<b>The Manchurian Candidate has struck:</b>
In the name of an undefined "national emergency" and the declared need to prepare Americans to "respond" to the "national defense needs" of the United States, <b>the Obama administration seized authority on Friday, March 16 to commandeer the production, use, and distribution of all resources, public and private, in the country,</b> including agricultural, energy, health, transportation, water, construction, and - just in case something is left out - the catch-all phrase "ALL other materials, services, and facilities."
To do all this, there will be at least TWO new organizations:
The Defense Production Act Committee (DPAC), comprised of the heads of the departments and offices of the Executive Branch; and
The National Defense Executive Reserve (NDER).
Think of the DPAC as the Politburo, and the NDER as Obama's Brown Shirts (his "civilian army").
The actual executive order can be found here: at the White House.gov website, under Press Office, Executive Order National Defense Resources Preparedness.
Don't believe me? Google this: "obama issues executive order martial law march 16"
<b>If we don't raise hell about this and MOVE TO IMPEACH this son of a bitch, we can kiss our Republic goodbye.</b> Focus, people; focus!

Beverly, there were multiple threads on this today. Everyone has heard about it but apparently fewer have heard that it isn't anything new. It's a renewal and update of a document first issued in 1939.
Do you know how long it takes to even get an impeachment up for a vote? The election will have come and gone long before. An impeachment would only be of any use if you were sure Obama was going to get re-elected. But then we'd have to go back and retroactively impeach seventy years of president who all had this power, too.

The only acceptable substitute for nachos is spicy buffalo wings.

I suddenly find myself in favor of mandatory abortions, retroactive to the first 21 years of life.

So, apparently the Robert v. Wade decision would have arbitrarily adopted the 87th trimester rule?

The last time I went hunting for buffalo wings all I found were chips ...
and my dog died, the shotgun misfired, and I couldn't run faster than my hunting pal from the bear ...
won't be tryin' that again until next February 30th ...

I think I see where you went wrong. All the 4-footed winged mammals leave skittles for droppings. You were following the wrong trail.

It is a cross between a douchebag and person with about 1/2 the IQ of his dog.

Since then they have taken a whore pill but it wouldn't bother me as long as they kept the juicer stuff on at later times and there was something actually worth watching. But alas, nether is the case. They think sex with no plot and shitty writing makes a good show. The they wonder why nobody watches their crap anymore.

LOL, I shot a water moccasin on the concrete beside my pool one year. That was so not a pretty sight and it stunk as well. And it was hard washing it off the umbrella and fence.

You can see that by the end of the 60s TV was going down hill fast. By the end of 80s it truly was a wasteland.

I think I'll spend my time reminiscing of the good old days of pledging my sorority chugging bottles of Mad Dog 20/20, rather than thinking about the current mess we're in. Hope and Change my fat ass.

Obama is a disaster?
Get back to me when President Obama tanks the economy and starts an unnecessary that kills hundreds of thousands of innocent people.
4 more years. Get some, cowards!
