Study: If You Own a Gun, You're a Racist
There's so much stupid in this 'scientific' study published in PLOS ONE that I don't even know where to start. Here's just one nugget in the tard sandwich:
Racism and guns go together.That's the finding of an international study released Thursday that says the two are linked. More specifically, odds are greater that a racist white American also keeps a gun at home and opposes gun control regulations.
The conclusion wasn't too surprising for researchers at Australia's Monash University and Britain's Manchester University, which sought to better understand American gun culture.
"There had already been research showing that blacks are more likely to be shot, so we thought there must be something happening between the concept of being black and some whites wanting guns," Monash researcher Kerry O'Brien said in an email to the Daily News.
He also found that political leanings and geography play a part into firearm ownership.
As far as investigating the dark side of the Major Issues, there's a critically important concept that students of journalism are rarely taught. It's easy to find any number of targets to write about in capitalist societies with an open press. But totalitarian governments are journalistic black holes. Journalists can tickle their self-righteous neurocircuitry every day (and many do), by exposing easy-to-find faults in democratic societies. But beyond their event horizon is the bigger story that often remains untold as it occurs-the horrific deaths of millions in totalitarian regimes like the former Soviet Union, Communist China, North Korea and, yes, Saddam Hussein's Iraq. That's why, when Robert Conquest was asked whether he wanted to retitle his updated The Great Terror, about the Soviet purges, his answer was: Yes, how about I Told You So, You Fucking Fools?
The FDA Moves to Ban Trans-Fats
Luckily they're exempting the small amounts of naturally occurring trans-fats or else we'd all become vegans by government fiat.
"Citing growing health concerns about trans fat, the FDA today proposed measures to eliminate it from the U.S. food supply. While trans fat can still be used, the new measures now place the burden on food processors to justify the inclusion of it in a food product as experts have maintained that there is no safe level of consumption and no health benefits. Since 2006, the amount of trans far eaten by the average American has declined from 4.5g per serving to less than 1g as restaurants and the food industry have reduced their use of it. There will be a 60 day public comment period for the new proposal."
Oh Noes: Mexican Coke is Moving to High-Fructose Corn Syrup
Executives at Coca-Cola in Latin America decided to make the switch after the Mexican government approved a tax of one peso on every liter of soda sold.
But not to worry - they'll still make a cane sugar version for export to the US. As long as the FDA allows it.

Kirsten Powers Takes the Exit to Damascus
We'll see if she keeps going.
The Intertunnel loves stuff like this. They treat the discovery of such work online as akin to unsealing Tutankhamen's tomb. While I've never done it myself, I've seen it done lots of times. Landscapers for tony houses in Massachusetts routinely split granite in this fashion to make outdoor steps while I was working alongside them doing something else. Feathers and wedges. Of course, there's one gigantic bit of handwaving involved with the video. Someone's got to drill those holes, and drilling holes in granite is no picnic. Most use an air hammer. The wedge and feather work is the easy part, if more fun to film.
...If you do things for yourself, Intertunnel viewers are quick to praise it, generally, unless it's self-defense, of course; but there's a limit to what's sensible, or even possible to do on your own, and you rub up against that limit pretty fast. It's ridiculous to poop in a hole in the ground with a solar panel on the roof over your head and talk about sustainability. Solar panels aren't made in a shed, and you don't swap last fall's rhubarb crop for them. Your hammer came from Home Depot, not a forge in the back yard. And money made right next to a smokestack and spent with you out in the landscape is still the same kind of money.
At $72m, India's mission to Mars is less expensive than many NY/London apartments.

Duck Dynasty Producers: A Little Less Jesus Please or It Might Upset the Muslims
When the producers of Duck Dynasty asked the stars to stop saying "in Jesus' name" during prayers because it might offend Muslims, Phil Robertson stood his ground and gave an eye-opening response."So they would just have me saying, 'Thank you Lord for the food, thank you for loving us. Amen.' So I said, 'Why would you cut out 'In Jesus' name?' They said, 'Well those editors are probably doing that. They just think that they don't want to offend some of the Muslims or something.'"
Robertson says he had a conversation with the producers, and the objections to Jesus' name stopped.
"I said, let's see now." Robertson went on, "I said, 'what year is it?'" And the editor finally answered, "2012? (the time the conversation took place, apparently).
Robertson then said, "2012 A.D. Anno Domini. The year of our Lord. I said, 'you Hollywood cats are counting time from Jesus, just like I am. I would think that of all the people who walked the planet Earth, if we've all decided in America here to count time by just one of 'em, Jesus of Galilee, I just don't think it would hurt to throw his name in there from time to time."
How To Blow $14.8 Billion Dollars in 12 Easy Steps
First get at least $14.8 billion dollars. Then join the Brunei royal family.
Prince Jefri Bolkiah is the younger brother of the Sultan of Brunei, and he is believed to have blown $14.8 billion on a series of follies including grotesque mansions; enormous collections of sportscars; haremsful of exotic prostitutes kept on standby at home and abroad; fleets of jets; musesumsworth of gaudy gems; private football tutelage from NFL greats for his pampered son; private concerts by Michael Jackson and Whitney Houston (the former in a purpose-built, single-use stadium); and more (and more).
...According to Fortune, when Hakeem wanted to learn football, Jefri imported N.F.L. stars Joe Montana and Herschel Walker to Brunei, at a cost of seven figures each, to teach him the game. Hakeem and his friends showed up in brand-new uniforms, the gargantuan prince weighing 300 pounds, trailed by a valet and guarded by a state security force. Hakeem was not able to catch the ball, so a teammate would hand it to him, and he would then shuffle down the field for an easy touchdown, because no one was allowed to tackle a prince. When Hakeem turned 18, his father gave him $1 billion as a birthday present, according to one of Zaman's affidavits.

Now that they won't have to work at Target, in theory, they will unleash their creativity upon our moribund economy.
In practice, their artwork is most likely just unnecessary enough that most customers won't want to pay their inflated prices. So they will wind up back at Target just to put food on the table.

I only have a certain amount of cattiness. It's a limited resource and I want to make sure I direct it at the most deserving targets.
Kate Upton doesn't make my list, or come close to being in the top 50. Sorry to disappoint :-)

Re: Trans Fats
The trans label is put on after oils have been hydrogenated to make a multi-unsat oil into a saturated oil. Due to the Trans fat scare, almost all of the food industry is moving away from Trans fat to palm oils. You still get the same level of saturated fats, and very similar cooking characteristics - but they were never hydrogenated therefore magically they are better for you.

Hot sci-fi girls: Oola, the dancing girl that Jabba fed to the rancor.
She may not deserve a spot on that list above, but if you pay close attention when she's fighting against Jabba with the chain, and again as she falls through the trap door, you can see bare Twi'lek boob. I was 11 or 12 when I first got a Betamax copy of ROTJ, and just about wore that section of the tape out.

I think there is a different reason for the FDA taking out the trans fats. Its because they want us to get used to the bland food taste for future use of soylent green.

Not really. Mormonism is structurally a prophetic religion. Jesus's sacrifice does mean something, but only to the degree that Daniel's sacrifice means something - it's a martyrdom with salvation at the end.
Mormonism's main faith-claim, distinguishing it from Christianity and Islam, is the post-resurrection appearances and visions - including those in the New World.
And that is why there was no cross in the Tabernacle Choir when I went there in 2003 or so.

better understand American gun culture."
Two quick points:
- before I lost all my guns in that horrific boating accident, I owned not A gun, but 23.
- It wasn't too surprising? You're going to go with that? Ok. Cupcakes. No guns. Let's go knives. Or clubs. Or fists. The FIST culture. Assholes.

23 (previously owned ) guns??!! We have to invent a new word to describe your level of racism.
What do you mean most gun crimes against black men are committed by other blacks? The deuce you say.
What a lame study. Those "researchers" should be stripped of any academic credentials they have.

How dare you undermine the integrity of the intelligentsia by suggesting people of one race target people of another race!
Your reeducation will be paid for by the market value of the nonbelievers' good sold on the open market after they're ushered off the cattle cars into the reeducation camps.

News to me that no-one talks about these books, but then I'm (barely) under 40. I grew up on newspaper-articles about the Dead Sea Scrolls where, indeed, several of those "extra" books were found.
At least "Ecclesiasticus" / Ben Sira was even cited as Scripture in Talmud. And 1 Maccabees ranks among the better histories of Antiochus IV Epiphanes and the rebellion against his tyranny.
So it's not like there is a Big Papist Conspiracy to hide the "apocrypha". They're not Torah, exactly, but then neither is Esther :^P

The FDA Moves to Ban Trans-Fats
Forget going John Galt, I think it's time to go Edgar Friendly.
You see, according to *Cacteau's* plan. *I'm* the enemy. Because I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, freedom of choice. I'm the kind of guy who would sit in the greasy spoon and think "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the big rack of Barbecued spare ribs with the side order of gravy fries?" I *want* high cholesterol. I want to eat bacon, butter and buckets of cheese alright? I want to smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinatti in a non-smoking section. I wanna run around naked with green jell-o all over my body reading a Playboy magazine. Why? Because maybe I feel the need to okay pal? I've *seen* the future, you know what it is. It's made by a 47 year-old virgin in gray pajamas soaking in a bubble bath, drinking a broccoli milkshake and thinking "I'm an Oscar-Meyer Wiener". You wanna live on top, you gotta live Cacteau's way. What he wants, when he wants, how he wants. Your other option: come down here, maybe starve to death.
I'm not sure I like the name "Cacteau," though. Can anyone think of another name we can use for the Leader?

Did you know, there was no slavery in colonial Georgia? Couldn't be. It was an English penal colony. And guess who got to be the penal colony next. Go ahead, ask any Abo. They'll tell you all about it.
They gave up their right to arms, they gave up their civic manhood. Of course they're touchy about that, and of course they'll continue to construct compensating arguments. There's no reason to take them seriously about it, though.

Actually, the Catholics' "extra" books were taken from the Jewish canon as it existed at the time. It's just that the Jews dumped a bunch of them into the sea at Jamnia. . .
Protestants and Catholics agree on the extent of the New Testament, although admittedly I consider 1 Clement a serious contender for inclusion. (Pity that it was written in the second generation! You really do have to read this book.)

Yep. And a quick web search of their names appears to show them both still publishing academic articles, so I'm betting that they're still getting $ from grants or universities. Although it's quite possible that there's other people with the exact same names in academia, involved in the exact subsections of psychology and theology that they were into.

I saw a scene for the first Hidden being shot. It was on Las Palmas off Hollywood Blvd. late at night. I was there with a friend to browse the news stand and the theater across the way was done as the strip joint in the movie. We hung around for a while to see if anything interesting would happen but there seemed to be a long delay in setting up the shot. I noticed an attractive woman in an ankle length fake fur coat, which made me more inclined to wait.
Months later the same friend and I were seeing the movie and had a Holy Shit! moment when it got to that scene, with Claudia Christian in the dress with cleavage in the rear. The next time I saw her in person was several years later when I was visiting the Babylonian Productions stages and she was shooting the scene where she going to use the Great Machine to do a news broadcast to the galaxy. There was some difficulty because the set had been designed for John Schuck and she was a lot shorter. They worked out a sequence where the camera would pull in tighter so a guy could slip in a platform for her to stand on without appearing to have suddenly gotten taller. I think they spent half the day trying to get a minute in the can.

My CC permit expired in Oct. I got the renewal in before the deadline hit so I didn't have to do the jumping jacks through the flaming hoops to get it renewed, just was late on the paperwork.
So from now until my new permit arrives in the mail (up to 90 days), I can't CC. I called the sheriff's dept and they said "Just open carry."
God I love where I live.
However, I also teach at a university. And you can already imagine that scenario. So should I test it? Or just carry my Emerson blade? There's that little patriot inside me that says "carry the sig open on your hip and see what happens."
And then there's the 'I've seen this movie' part of me that says "Not a good plan. Dude. Trust me on this one."
I'm leaning toward the patriot rebel side.

sure, rub it in.
I do love teaching, I really do. And here's some math:
A TTP (tenured track professor) gets $5800 for teaching a 3 credit hour class (that's a class that meets twice a week for 1 hour and 15 minutes) for 15 students. For each class. So teach 4 of those per semester. Not too bad right?
Me? I have 92 students per class, not 15. 4 credit hours each. two of those = 180 (after drops, about 150). I spend at least 60 hours a week on grading, class prep, notes, online shit, office hours. I get paid 6K for those. Oh, and throw in a lab.
My take home is $1200 a month for 60 hours a week.
Yeah, not doing that shit ever again. Learned my lesson. Fool me once...

My husband went to the School of Visual Arts in NYC. He's an illustrator and cartoonist. He still vividly remembers how those of his commercially-bent ilk were excitedly discussing their art, whereas the "fine" artists studying there only seemed to talk about how to snag grants.
Posted by: Sister Sestina at November 08, 2013 02:29 AM (b7z9R)
Seriously you just reminded me of some friends of mine from art school who hit it big. "studio artists" my ex is a "commercial artist,"(we called those art whores) and i was an "illustrator." (Which means my images were always ones in which you knew what was going on and my pictures looked like things.)
we went to our friends art opening for their installations and drove home in stunned silence. Now, as an art whore my ex was very accomplished and successfull and you would all recognize his projects if i pointed them out to you, and you would go, "cool, must be fun to get paid for that." He turned to me finally after twenty aghast minutes of silent driving and said to me in a hushed voice "I dont know about you, but i think Tim's a fraud." Like he couldnt believe it.
"Yeah. Little kids do that. But they dont get paid like he does." was all i could say. I have a drawing in CRAYON Tim's wife did thats worth prolly 500 bucks just for her name on it. It is visually indistinguishable from a drawing made by my friends 4 year old child.
They get grants. They have museum space. At least if people are still paying what they were for their Styrofoam and toilet paper creations (installations) they will be taxed like the 1%, and hate it like i do. BUt people like that flummox me. and yes of course they are liberals and hipster douches.

Frankly, it gives Obama and his ilk too much credit as well, he's too lazy to bring about evil of that magnitude.
Ad hominem attacks are the refuge of those who have lost the debate on merits already. The fact that it is a patently false attack as well just underscores how badly you are beaten. God help you, as you clearly cannot tell venal sins from mortal, nor mere opportunism from true evil.

The GOP is about to remove sole ownership status for Brand D on Ogabecare because the McCain gang lacks the needed ruthlessness to play Reid's own game back at him.
Fuck 'em we'll never WIN anything even when we "win" with McCain gang.
By R or D in the end the choice is the "moderates" but the McCain gang is leaving.

It was a good post Bevel like I said upthread John McCain has basically ceded that ONLY Democrats get to nominate who they want ideologically to Presidential appointments.
Abe Lincoln said of my Hero US Grant "I can't spare this man he fights."
Karl Marx's ghost on McCain "I can't spare this man he caves."

and choking is what is needed.
For the love of God does the GOP not grasp a big portion of its base and a huge portion of the people who have left the coalition have a genuine hatred of Leviathan?
If the choice is a gentle pubic thrust to my throat or a savage rapine thrust I'd prefer the savage rapine thrust because I may bite the crank off as a reflex and as EoJ says I am not down with sip of penis.
The GOP's mission seems to be slowly "teaching me" to remove my gag reflex.
I saw REM open for Sip Of Penis back in '89

MW I'm afraid you misattributed, Jarhead is the one who stated a slower march to the camp via the moderates.
I don't disagree that RINO domination leads to "just a slower march", but that if it takes a handful of RINOs to get to a majority, or a supermajority, that's a tolerable evil is the thrust of my argument. Go to war with the army you have, not the one you want--and i don't think we are ever going to see a majority of hard right conservatives. Hell, the Revolution had only 1/3 Patriots and 1/3 neutral (RINOs of the time, as it were). Seems to me that worked out pretty well, because the Patriots were the dominant ideology.

The army we have invites Charles Schumer Royalist into camp to make plans...
I'd prefer to either remove them from the army or myself.
Thanks.

Well they are about to find out what a Conservativeless GOP can accomplish I'd wager.
The Conservatives held their nose and backed McCain and Romney...Romney being the easier to bear...
The Liberal and Moderate GOP went to Donkey.
Since I guess the lesson is going to donkey is fine I will join them if the candidate is another ":fuck you I am a centrist" candidate.

1 -- a solid soldier of Side A is captured by Side B during battle. Side B takes the soldier to a POW camp and holds him until the end of the war. Although held, POW is treated with respect and there is no punishment for being on the wrong side. At the end of the war, POW is released to return home.
2 -- a soldier from Side B is found to be aiding Side A. Side B executes its own soldier for treason.

It's why I sometimes humor the notion that there is a massive blackmail campaign going on.....
ie "captured"
I dunno I do know if I can close my eyes and see you sitting with Snarlin' Arlen and Jumpin' Jim in brand new Donkey Blue ties you'll never get my vote again.

The army we have is shooting at US more than at the Democrats.

Does that make me a double racist?
Depends. Show your teeth.

There are reasons Eliza Dushku starred in an entire television series that involved her doing nothing but running from place to place.
Good.
Reasons.
