Alright! Thank God it's Friday. But all is not well here. Looks like the flu bug has hit my humble abode. Oh well. Let's start off the ONT with a little Ode To The Pug.
Mad Flying Skillz
So you want to be a pilot?
The spin was supposed to be a normal erect spin to the right, but for various unintentional reasons the spin went flat, up until that point I had never flat spun an aircraft. I eventualy mananged to get the aircraft into a normal erect spin from which I was able to recover. This aircraft is not fitted with an electric starter motor, so I was unable to restart the engine. During the "flare" to land the main undercarriage caught the top wires of a barbed wire fence that was invisible to me. After coming to rest inverted I waited 20mins for the rescue services to come and right the aircraft so I was able to exit via the outward opening canopy. The aircraft rotated 26 times total, I was extremely dissorientated after the recovery to straight and level flight, and was unable to read the instruments. From the video I estimate I recovered at about 700ft from an entry altitude of 3500ft. If you listen carefully you will hear me say:"I think this is it". At that stage I did not think I would be able to recover. However I continued to try various control inputs based on the aircraft attitude and rotational rate, which eventually effected a recovery.
My thanks go to the emergency services that found me and allowed my escape.
Brings back memories of approach to stall and LAPLs (low altitude power loss) training back in the day.
Sex Appeal
High Heels Give Women More Attractive Gait. Gait? Yeah, that's really what most guys notice. I heard that all the time hanging out with the guys. Dude, check out that gait.
Hospital Brothel
Um has anyone really read all of Obamacare yet? I'm curious if Hospital Brothels are covered. Does not sound like your typical brothel though. You have to bring your own date as it is not part of the package. Your essentially paying for a "luxury suite" in a friggin' hospital. For extra you can add a "sex skills expert" to critique your performance or something.
According to the sex professor, Peng Xiaohui from Huazhong Normal University, invited to the press conference, they once treated a couple having fertility problems. The reason the couple with a doctorate degree failed to conceive a baby after three years of marriage was found to be that the husband had mistaken his wifeÂ’s belly button for her vagina!
On second thought, maybe the Chinese do need these type of things.
Disney's Take On Empire Strikes Back
It's still better than any of the prequels.
Video Game Of The Year
I'll just quote Kratos on this one. Forget about God Of War, Starcraft, Mass Effect, Call Of Duty...ad infinitum. The newest game that'll hit the market on March 8th, courtesy of a cool $100K tax payer funded grant from the NEA, is HERAdventure.
A new video game featuring a black alien female superhero delivered to Earth to fight global warming is about to hit the market thanks to a $100,000 grant from the Obama administration.The National Endowment for the Arts is funding the Spelman College of Atlanta, Ga.’s multi-episode game called “HERadventure.” In the grant announcement made last year, the NEA said the story “focuses on a young female superhero sent to Earth to save her own planet from devastation because of climate changes caused by social issues impacting women and girls.”
h/t Kratos
Question Of The Day
A dumb one of course as a lot of folks across the class spectrum partake. Why Do Rich And Famous People Always Sunbathe Topless?
Doggeh Video
Bonus Doggeh material: Ugliest Dog Competition. I'm pretty sure Helen Thomas would still win.

I've got a recent dog story too.
There's a dog at the office and when I'm in twice a week or so, I take him for a walk. There's a manicured area with picnic benches next to the parking lot and around it and edging the parking lot there is wild area of longish grass.
In fall with the grass and prickly weeds dead, I'd let him nose around in there. And we've had a couple of walks in the snow this winter when he's done the same--sniffing around and getting a scent and then digging through the (then) 3" of snow searching for field mice.
On Thursday we had a January thaw that other Eastern commenters have noted and 3/4 of the snow has melted and the areas where I walk him are flooded a bit that I suppose has driven the mice up from their holes in the dirt with the (for them) flooding. So he was doing his usual nosing around and digging through the snow and the dirt and he's really excited as usual but at one point especially and while he's busy digging through the grass I see a fat dark grey mouse make an escape along the edge of the parking lot paved area.
I say aloud as is my wont when walking the dog, "I guess your nose is alot better than your eye sight." He jumps to another spot and you can hear another mouse and the dog gets a slight grip on it but I restrain the dog enough so that the (wounded?) mouse manages to get away. I restrain him a bit more until the quarry are gone and then let him nose around a bit more but then take him back to the office with him happily sniffing around all the way back including around some of the planted trees--undoubtedly hoping for a squirrel sighting too.
It's not my dog so I don't want him eating field mice (although indifferent to him killing them) in case it causes a problem with him like getting worms or something.
I was in today too but it was raining heavily so I wouldn't take him out and that had him pretty whiny a few times. I played with the tugging toy with him for 5 minutes and then he took the tug toy to the door as if to say, "Hey, dummy, I want to play outside. What part of that don't you understand?"

Researchers say the attraction stems from the fact that heels make a womanÂ’s gait more feminine. High heels require a slightly adjusted way of walking, one that involves shorter steps and more hip movement. Since these characteristics are specific to women, overemphasizing these traits would in essence increase oneÂ’s femininity, they say, and by extension, oneÂ’s attractiveness to a male.
Who else knows this?

Just like there is in the Wonder Woman universe Nubia. An African Amazon who is Diana's sister. But who knows that? Very few because Nubia was a flop when she popped up in 1973 and every time since.

Well Rons, my glorious Senator, Patty "Mom In Tennis Shoes" Murray of WA (D, People's Republic of WA) has stated that she supports Obammy taking unilateral action to thwart the debt ceiling crisis. Glad to affirm that I have a senator that supports a crossing the Rubicon-like action by the chief exec. Well, to be fair, she is a sock puppet for the dem party. But hey, let it burn.

Teej #79,
I have a mini 14 in .223. I load it to around 3200 fps. My brother owed a Rem model 700 in 22-250. A tack driver! I think I remember it doing close to 4000 fps. The cartridge looks like a coors bottle with a 22 bullet on the end. The .223 ammo is much easier to find.

I never had that issue with my CPAP but I did not like donning the level 3 hazmat with SCBA suit. A CPAP pushes constantly SCBA gear has some kind of valve that only lets air out when there is a negative pressure to it. That is likely the difference to why I'm OK with CPAP but not SCBA.

I am a cardiac patient and always worry about heading out to exercise and not being able to get back home, so I have to have something at home.
My original research was for a treadmill, but then started looking into recumbent bikes. I won't buy a used treadmill from Craigslist, but presently I'm considering a new treadmill purchase and a used recumbent bike purchase.
Posted by: Niedermeyer's Dead Horse at January 11, 2013 11:47 PM (piMMO)
Watch out for any used exercise equipment, even bikes. If the bike has a "strap" that is used for tension, those things will wear out. Lots of used equipment stores won't buy any thing with those tension belts because they tend to wear out all of a sudden.

Upon further review, Apophis is no longer even a remote threat to smash into Earth in about 20 years, NASA says.
Astronomers got a much better look at the asteroid when it whizzed by Earth on Wednesday from a relative safe 9 million miles away. They recalculated the space rock's trajectory and determined it wasn't on a path to hit Earth on April 13, 2036 as once feared possible.

It's not so much the cold, it's that we don't have the support system to deal with it. It's not like we've got a closet full of gore-tex parkas to fall back on.

I just happen to have some .338 Federal. On an AR10 upper.

I have to spend a few minutes in the SCBA outfit every three years when I do my H2S Alive course in order to work in the oil patch here. It never bothered me. The good instructors emphasize that you should try to just relax and breathe normally. If ones is nervous, it's easy to start hyperventilating and burn off the air tank absurdly fast. They do, by the way, maintain positive pressure in the facepiece, in order to ensure that toxic gases can't seep in and poison the wearer.

That is the place to go. We had some old equipment we took several years ago that they sold for us and would not take one bike because of the strap. The other recumbent bike, yep, the one with the strap nope. He even showed us a strap that broke on one that they tried to sell several years earlier.

Finally got to see The Hobbit tonight. I liked it. Didn't mind the LOTR connections and similarities since it is in the same world. Probably could have done it with the two movies and cut out some of the extra stuff, but eh still done well.
The trailers had "After Earth" which looks like "I am Legend in the distant future" Then there was "Beautiful Creatures" which looks like "Twilight with witches" though I actually think it looks more well done partly because they decided COLOR was good to have in a movie. And then there was a new trailer for "Warm Bodies" which is actually the first trailer but the second one I saw. The second trailer made it look like Twilight with zombies and some comedy, but the one before The Hobbit made it look even funnier and possibly worth watching.

Global Warming happens every Day, and is most extreme in Daytimes during Summer.
Global Cooling happens every Night, and is most extreme in Nighttimes during Winter.
It's the Sun, and our Earth's Orbit, of course.
Whether it was Copernicus vs the Catholic Church, or Anthony Watts vs the IPCC, the facts don't change.
Sun just doesn't care about us, and we are deluded in thinking we have meaningful influence on climate by something as stupid as trivial amounts of Co2 (short summary - changes in temperature occur BEFORE changes in Co2).
Pollution, habitat destruction, et c, - all are another matter. Who wants to live downwind of an open pit dump?
BTW - anyone else see NASA's webpage, titled "Solar Variabilty and Terrestial Climate" (science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2013/08jan_sunclimate/)?

Oh but you see, the left is plenty arrogant enough to think "they" can tell the earth and sun how it should act, like they do with every other fucking thing. Its all about control with them. When you have a whole generation that grew up with 32nd place trophies and were told they were special, its no surprise they think the solar system actually gives a rat's ass about them.

It...just...would...not...stop. I don't know wtf she did with the crust, but its the only desert in the frigging galaxy I was ever afraid of. It tasted like burnt automatic trans fluid. I don't think my reaction would have been worse with a chunk of monkey shit on my fork.

I picked up this speech by John Adams over at Taxes, Stupidity and Death. Yeah, modern man is so much smarter than the Founding Fathers. Try and follow along fellow Morons:
TO THE OFFICERS OF THE FIRST BRIGADE OF THE THIRDDIVISION OF THE MILITIA OF MASSACHUSETTS
11 October, 1798
GENTLEMEN
I have received from Major-General Hull and Brigadier-General Walker your unanimous address from Lexington, animated with a martial spirit, and expressed with a military dignity becoming your character and the memorable plains on which it was adopted.
While our country remains untainted with the principles and manners which are now producing desolation in so many parts of the world; while she continues sincere, and incapable of insidious and impious policy, we shall have the strongest reason to rejoice in the local destination assigned us by Providence. But should the people of America once become capable of that deep simulation towards one another, and towards foreign nations, which assumes the language of justice and moderation while it is practising iniquity and extravagance, and displays in the most captivating manner the charming pictures of candor, frankness, and sincerity, while it is rioting in rapine and insolence, this country will be the most miserable habitation in the world; because we have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge, or gallantry, would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
An address from the officers commanding two thousand eight hundred men, consisting of such substantial citizens as are able and willing at their own expense completely to arm and clothe themselves in handsome uniforms, does honor to that division of the militia which has done so much honor to its country.
Oaths in this country are as yet universally considered as sacred obligations. That which you have taken and so solemnly repeated on that venerable spot, is an ample pledge of your sincerity and devotion to your country and its government.

The rights of the people, shall not be infringed........
Meaning A firearm is only a FIREARM..if it has bullets to shoot from it.
A FIREARM sans bullets....is a club or a very expensive hammer or a door-stop.
To BEAR ARMS...MEANS a GUN WITH BULLETS. Any attempt to seperate the Gun from the BULLETS is a De-Facto attempt to INFRINGE!
Which by the way, is a direct violation of the 2nd! Get on it folks, the Obama stream media is attempting to play with words to fit the kool-aid and make us think like them.
Don't drink the Barry-aid.....ever!
You can only call it a FIREARM if it has BULLETS! The 2 elements together MAKE IT A FIREARM and thus the elements together can only be called a FIREARM......do I need to do this more....in depth????
This is so very sad that we have come to this as a nation...yet here we are.

Pie crust is not easy, people can either bake, or not.
I cannot bake except banana nut bread, but am a damn good cook. Admire people who can bake, and pie crust is not easy, have tried and failed many times.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I had very high expectations. I've seen it three times so far, and will see it at least once more. So nice to be back in Middle Earth for a while. I can forget about real life for a few hours. Nice.

Most of it worked. The crowd of dwarves is almost the point of having so many....the added stuff was pretty decent....the really painful bits involved Dr. Wizard and his turbobunnies and, oddly, inside the Goblin Kingdom. I'd have rather seen something clever where Gandalf sees the logical weakness of the jerry-rigged structure than go against character where the goblins weren't small-minded, paranoid, and prone to 1000-to-1 melees. The Goblin King would have had them in cages, within cages, suspended on chains, with archers to shoot them, and other archers to shoot the original archers if they proved inattentive. For Gandalf (who helped sing the world into existence and who was a Maiar of Aule, who devised the material of the the world) to walk in, look at the whole chaotic jumble, and kick a random-looking board that started a chain-reaction cave-in is actually more believable -- and would have been better cinema, besides.

If you know someone who goes to the range, ask if you can come along.
Or you can go to the NRA HQ and ask about shooting courses, since they're down the street from you.

Getting raised in a household that had firearms and parents that knew them to be nothing more than tools to "DO" things....like shoot deer for food or kill the frequent coyote raiding your hen house or just having fun seeing who could plink the soda cap off the top of the fence post from distance.....yeah that was our right...now the present administration attempts to label us on the same level as the "Black Death?"....America, you have got some serious problems right now....and it is not with the salt and earth of this country.

You have a flagpole.
It has provisions for 2 flags.
What is the appropriate display of:
The US flag
The Idaho State flag
The Gasden flag
Explain.

yeah from what I hear she used shortening, which meant nothing to me at the time seeing I know jack shit about baking, but I asked a lot of questions because the shit was soooo bad and I wanted to avoid anything like it in the future. Yeah I guess old shortening could have been a total possibility. This is the same women who thought making a lasagna a few weeks ahead of christmas and freezing it until christmas would go over real well with my mostly Italian family.

Nope. All the ammo you could want still on the shelves.
The rifle rack was full.
The pistol display case was full.
Of course, you know why.
We've already got ours, and have had them for years.

I usually use, roughly, 2/3 butter and 1/3 (lard or) shortening for any piecrust recipe. The key is cold tools and ingredients.
...and a good pastry cutter.

Actually, I load the d/w and cycle it, and the BH puts it all away.....and can't complain about dishes in the sink unless the d/w has been empty 24 hours. So there's a certain value in running it at midnight.

Just to finish before I go to the warmth of a down comforter and a horizontal recline.....
I have been stabbed "Almost thru a bullet-Proof" vest while attempting to save the life of a herion addict while working in the streets of Oakland CA.
Still in Oakland, some babe in arms with a ski-mask pointed his shakey hand and a rusty .32 auto in my face and robbed me of the contents of my medic bag because I had broken the first rule of being at an ATM in OAKLAND after sundown. While working in an E.R on night shift, I stopped a man who was attempting to slam a mag into a .45 and shoot himself...I cupped my hand over the mag insert at the bottom of the gun he clutched and prayed for what seemed like hours,
(only minutes) until hospital security arrived and we went to ground and got the gun away...I snagged the mag and cut my fingers because I was clutching it so tight.......
Firearms are tools.....only......if you put a crazy person with a firearm...ALL BETS OFF.......
Night to you all

I didn't have the sense of dread that I have now, back in 2008, because the behavior of Obama and Congress hadn't gotten to the stupid stage yet, with absolute rejection of their sworn duty and rule of law.
So, no overbearing doom and gloom then, because it was correctable in the next election.
And in Nov 2012, it got worse. Much worse.

Funny you picked that.
I just finished reading a book on the French and Indian Wars, as I was interested in what did give Washington his tactical experience from the Indians.
That war lasted 70 YEARS.
It was basically a battle between the French and British (colonists) over the Ohio Valley. Different groups of Indians would fight for either side.
Massacres were common.

Yep, no question. I'm the fiercest conservative and defender of America's rich history as any in my peer group. I'm just dealing with the conflict of Immense disappoint in so many in the country, who don't even want to get the smallest bit educated on what a serious problem we are in.

If this current wave of gun control hysteria gets appropriately doused by our Federal Legislative Branch, I'm gonna take that as the first sign of 2013, that there is a glimmer of some things being right in this Grand Old U S of A.
And I'll put my flag back up.
Still need a third spot.
Guess I'll need to plan an additional flagpole for Spring.

so I was at applebee's yesterday and there was this woman who struck up a conversation with me, the topic turned to "smart grids" and "smart meters" and she was convinced that the only reason that people would object to such 'sensible' technology was because they were afraid of radio waves or something... she was your typical smug leftie who thought she knew the answers to everything and that conservatives are just idiot troglodytes who hate science and reason. I don't know how you communicate with such people.
oh and she was an ugly hag too.

Trying to rewrite and its driving me crazy. What fun.
Fed kittehs, put garbage out, and did dishes. Anything except rewrite.
And is anyone worried with four volcanoes in Kamchatka erupting, that whole shield could erupt again and really put an end to AGW. Can you imagine a game of Risk with natural disasters thrown in?

With the amount of gases, including CO2, that a volcano can put out, they do not seem to be a factor in the AGW mindset for some reason. I have questioned that after the one in Iceland blew up a few years ago. Consider also, the ones that are in the deeeeep seas that are emitting gases 24/7 for how many years? And warmists are worried about my SUV?

Just saw this on Fox, take with grain or boulder of salt. US Government warns that Java has such a security flaw that hackers can install malicious software. So the government, 'we are here to help,' says uninstall Java until a patch is developed.
