Overnight Open Thread (13 Jul 2013)
— CDR M

UPDATE: With tonight's breaking news in the Zimmerman trial, here's a link for the Seminole Country/Sanford Police scanner to listen for any riots in the making. Stay safe morons.

OK morons, for your Caturday night entertainment, I present to you a pop quiz. It's very easy. As long as you aren't a LIV. The News IQ Quiz. Sadly, I only got 12 out of 13 correct.

Oh, I saw Pacific Rim today and loved it. It's exactly what it is supposed to be. A giant monster versus giant robot fight fest. The sound system at the theater rocked. I could literally feel the punches and my seat shook when the big beasties and robots walked about. A perfect summer movie. Was it Lawrence of Arabia? No. Did it have some plot holes? Yes. In the end did I care? Nope. X-47B

The X-47B already had a pretty impressive week as it logged the first carrier landing for an unmanned vehicle. Evidently, it's already better than some Asiana Air pilots too. The X-47B aborts its own landing.

Spy Gadgets

Spy museum reveals the fascinating gadgets used by spies over the years. Pretty cool.

Different Ways To Open Your Wine

Not for the box o' wine type. I think this would've been better if Diemon Dave the Red Neck Ninja had done it.

Bestiality Brothels

Won't be long before these "lifestyle choices" arrive here. Bestiality brothels are 'spreading through Germany.

'There are now animal brothels in Germany,' Martin told the paper, adding that people were playing down the issue by by describing it as a 'lifestyle choice'.

Armed with a host of similar case studies, Ms Martin is now calling for the government to categorically ban bestiality across the country.

Last November German authorities said they were planning to reinstate an old law forbidding sex with animals after a sharp rise in incidents of bestiality along with websites promoting it.

Mosquitoes

Oh no. Beer seems to be one of many factors in why mosquitoes bite some people more than others. 40% DEET works like a champ.

In Shape Grandma's

Super seniors flex their stuff. Holy crap they are in shape.

Bear Attack Tips

Oh my Lord. Local news reporter acts out what to do if attacked by a bear. You know what works better? A big ass gun with many, many rounds of ammo.

1 People who are used to freedom are adverse to seeing the end results of the loss of their freedom, when that loss is slow and there is still some (often superficial) freedom left. When the pots is heated slowly, the frog does not notice until it is too late. However, those who have lived through tyrannical regimes can clearly see exactly how the loss of freedom will lead to tyranny, for they have themselves lived through the consequences.

Hold down Alt and hit Tab a few times. If the window switches to a program, close and try again.

You probably don't have to close them all. Most new software will install even with another program running, except some virus scanners.

You start paying attention to the black-on-black violence, the poor ass fucking black high school graduation rates, the rate of single motherhood, the incarceration rate, the murder rate, the death-by-violence rate, and then maybe -- MAYBE -- I'll believe you give a tinker's damn about blacks in this country.

152 So you think the majority of blacks really didn't care that Martin was black and that has no part in their feelings towards his guilt? You think 93% blacks didn't care that Obama is black when  they voted for him? You think all those blacks celebrating OJs acquittal didn't care that he was black but just thought OJ was really not guilty? You  think those LA riots would have happened if Rodney King was white?

Race is at the forefront of their ideology and decision making....of course not all of them but most of them. Go check out twitter. Find one black who knows it was self defense and admits it and agrees with the jury.

To deny it makes you look as bad as a liberal. Pushing the white guilt.

A little bit scary but not too bad.   There's no kissing stuff and I don't recall there being a lot of bad language but it's not like that's something I would notice.   If you'd like your 8 year old watch Transformers, this is fine.

Harris Faulkner said earlier, that..."Justice for Trayvon, had been served. The system worked".

 

Someone on the other thread had said that she looked cross or something, about the verdict.

Harris was on RedEye the other night, and had said that Zimmerman should get the Not Guilty verdict.

Haha!  George Z's bro is pawning Piers Morgan.  Wow!  Piers kept trying to say that Trayvon was an unarmed 17 year old, and bro said "No, he was armed with the sidewalk and his nose breaking fists."

 

Piers also tried the old "How would this case been different if GZ was black and TM was white?"

 

Bro said "Charges would never have been pressed, it happens in Chicago every day."

 

Don't know what the bro's background is, but he is calm, articulate and awesome!  Oh, and Piers is a douche.  He had to go to commercial break to stop the hemorrhage.

Yup.

The FX are jaw dropping when you consider just how blase we are to them now.  There's an actual sense of weight to the movements.  


It also helps that the scenes of the drivers were done on an articulated platform so when you see them getting thrown all around it's because they were getting thrown all around.   The combination of digital and practical is pretty much seamless.

How many things in this trial turned out to be exactly opposite of how they were  depicted?  My  favorite  was the media trying to show that Zimmerman used a slur  (f-ing coons...) How ghastly.

 

Turned out he didn't. But Martin displayed his racial animostity - according to the state's witness - by  calling Zimmerman a "creepy  ass cracker."

Wow, that interview with Rob Zimmerman and Piers Morgan was the best thing I've seen on CNN in forever!  Wow! 

 

I love how at the end of the interview, RZ brought up all the things about St. Trayvon of the Hood that the MFM ignored--his violent nature, his growing of pot plants, his desire to own illegal firearms.  Ha!  CNN had to get the cane out and whisk him out of there before people learned that Trayvon wasn't the straight A, choir boy scout that he's been portrayed as.  RZ was awesome!.

Posted by: Niedermeyer's Dead Horse at July 13, 2013 11:58 PM (jjvz+)


It really makes you not want to spend another dime or minute on NFL games, does it? To be guided entirely by race like that is unbelievably pathetic and sad. If Trayvon were white and Zimmerman were black, I would have still supported the "Not Guilty" verdict against Zimmerman based on the evidence. How many of those NFL players would be complaining about a black Zimmerman killing a white Trayvon? I think we all know the answer to that question.

Old and busted: If I had a son he would  look like Trayvon Martin

New Hotness:  Themis!  The origin may be Themis, a Greek mythological goddess. One of the Titans, pre-Hellenic nature deities born to Uranus and Ge, she remained and advised Zeus after his purge of the old pantheon. In depictions of her, she carries the scales of justice in one hand and a sword in the other, her eyes covered. She became an oracle at Delphi, and became known as a goddess of divine justice.

A daughter of Themis and Zeus, Dike, known as a goddess of justice but not divine justice, presided over the apportionment of things among mortals, the protection of individuals and the keeping of social and political order. She carried a sword without a scale of justice. At times Dike is said to be the same (or is she confused with?) Astraea. Astraea is also said to be a daughter of Themis and Zeus and is known as a goddess of justice. Also known as daughter of Eos and Astraeus 1, her head was crowned with ears of grain and for its measure carried a balance or scale. Astraea was the last of the immortals to leave earth after the Golden Age. She has also been called a goddess of purity and innocence. She became the constellation Virgo. Dike left earth when the Race of Bronze was born.

The Egyptians honored Maat, the daughter of the sun god, Ra. She also carried a sword but without a scale of justice.

Justitia, a Roman goddess of justice, wore a blindfold. She had been depicted with sword and scales, but was not always so.

Representations of the Lady of Justice in the Western tradition occur in many places and at many times. She sometimes wears a blindfold, more so in Europe, but more often she appears without one. She usually carries a sword and scales. Almost always draped in flowing robes, mature but not old, no longer commonly known as Themis, she symbolizes the fair and equal administration of the law, without corruption, avarice, prejudice, or favor.

329 If Zimmerman were black and Trayvon were white ... then GZ would be a national hero. And the vast majority of white people would stand up for the chubby wanna-be cop black guy who was neighborhood watch captain and stood up to defend his community from a white punk kid drug dealing violent thug. If Zimmerman were black the NRA would give him a free lifetime membership. Republicans would be trying to recruit him for political office. The entire country would rally around a black Zimmerman who shot a white Trayvon.

You're 100% correct. The NFL and NBA are both filled with a bunch of thugs and scumbags. And the scumbags are not confined to one race either. Back in the '90s, I actually used to be a sports reporter for a daily newspaper that covered all of the Boston professional teams, so I spent a lot of time in locker rooms speaking to and interviewing pro athletes from all four major sports. The thug-like attitude and behavior was the exception not the rule back then. Unfortunately, that's simply not true anymore.

How do we know what they based the verdict on?

Could be they just didn't see pudgy Zimm a threat. (btw, he showed massive self discipline all the way to the end during this trial)

Or maybe they didn't like the fact of all of Tray's witnesses' being stupid and acting bad and lying. (I'm looking at you jeantel).

They could all be racists (yes even the minority lady) and that's alllll about feelings not fact.

So, NO, we don't have to take back shit.

There is a Walmart about a mile away and I knew they had an automotive department and figured they had something that would work. In order to get to that department, you must go past the sporting goods. As I looked down the aisle, a stock person was putting ammo in the display case. I walked over and asked what it was and turns out it was .40 FMJ. Boxes of 100 for $36. Naturally I bought 500 rounds. I also asked if they do this every week and he smiled and says yeah. I told him I'll be back weekly. Since I usually get off at 3 AM, it will just be a slight side trip on my way home from work. They're still having trouble getting .22LR too.

When the Martin attys get out there and talk about nothing but race and if the races were switched there woulod have been a conviction - they say it is not about race. When the MSM does the same bullshit as above and then they tell us it is not about race. Unfuckingbelievable.

565 473 I always wondered, what makes sport figures think they know anything about running restaurants? Yet they all do it. In these times the surest way to lose money is to stick it in restaurants and nightclubs. Posted by: lowandslow at July 14, 2013 12:45 AM (Fz2C7) Apparently you do not understand the athlete mindset. It's all about hanging out there and tapping young ass. Fuck the money. Posted by: Oldsailors Poet Palin/Bolton 2016 at July 14, 2013 12:49 AM (XIxXP) 474 What insights did a guy like Don Shula or a Bret Farve gain in their NFL years on making a steak? Why should I go to their restaurant instead of one that's run by someone that spent their entire lives is the business? Posted by: lowandslow at July 14, 2013 12:50 AM (Fz2C7) Most of them don't know shit about the business, but they think they have a big enough name to get people to come to eat there in the off chance that said athlete will be there and come by to say "hi". They rely on the jock sniffers of the world. That said, the smart ones just end up licensing their name to somebody who knows something about the business. Frank Beamer had a couple of restaruants that absolutely sucked and closed up after a couple of years here in Roanoke, and in SW Virginia, he is a saint to a shitload of people. Several years after they closed, and new one opened up with his name on it, and this time he just licensed his name and gave them some photos from his playing career at Va Tech to use. Great beer selection at the place. We also have a Shula's here, and it is at a hotel. By using a name like "Shula's 347", people who come to town will know who the "Shula" is and will be more likely to eat there than eating at "Mike Cumshack's Steakhouse". Also, it's pretty hard to fuck up a steak and baked potato.

569 Hollowpoint, I fish from my kayak and it's awesome. It's really easy to get it in and out of the water, even through the surf. I usually go a mile or two off shore, which takes a little bit of effort, but I'm sure lake fishing would be a breeze. You can troll, cast or just drop your line over the side. I have mine rigged with a depth/fish finder and a bait tank. Check out some of the kayak fishing websites for a lot of useful information

Was Happy to see Nancy Grace almost cry on television today. She is a bitch with a capital "B". Her counterpart, the girl with the ex drinking problem who speaks loudly every time she takes a fart - Jane Velez Mitchell - comments about how the society that allows a teen to be murdered with skittles and tea on his way home is problematical. Yea, you bitch, and this goes to Nancy Grace too - don't say that if that little fuckwad Trayvon would have gone directly home instead of trying to surprise and fuck up the shorter, chuncky hispanic dude, that none of us would have to put up with this shit. I'm on painkillers for diverticulitis and a couple of other "itises" I'm wrestling with....so I think I'll take a double formula of all my pain killers tonight and wash 'em down with a Black Lager. Also need to make a note to myself to find that fine little filly lawyer who helps Mr. West and Mr. Mayo keep their zippers up. She looks live a fun one to get lost in the stacks with. OK.

604 Bigshots always want to have a restaurant. I've done time in the restaurant industry, and begged people who idealize about getting into it not to. Nothing can be done. They all underestimate the viciousness of the restaurant business, the slim profit margins, the long slog to profit, the difficulty of pulling off serving good food to a great number of people in a short time. Opening a restaurant is not something casually done. Bigshots don't know this. Cannot be convinced of this. They always assume it's a trivial matter they'll overcome, thanks to their bigshotedness. Then they get bit in the ass. Rinse, Repeat.

633 Before you buy a kayak, do some research by reading the kayak fishing forums. Most of them are geared toward salt water, but the information is applicable to fresh. You just don't need to worry about eight foot swells like I do. There are a lot of kayaks that are designed for fishing and diving and are very stable. I have the Ocean Kayak Prowler 13. I've only rolled once on open water and two or three times in the surf. After that, I took a surf class to find out what I was doing wrong.

Watching this travesty unfold over the last year and the seemingly monolithic resentment and hatred of blacks towards whites I see exhibited everywhere, from near unanimous votes for a black president to outright mob-like demands for a show trial for Zimmerman...well, I'm pretty much at the end of my patience. And certainly at the end of my friendship. Posted by: LGoPs at July 14, 2013 01:29 AM (lL1xY) Delurking... I know how you feel and I'm black. But it just goes to show you the slave-minded thinking that blacks still have, courtesy of the Democrat party. Too bad they don't protest black-on-black crime, the aborting of black babies, the 72% out-of-wedlock birthrate and high unemployment. Personally, I think they are soon going to learn that they have burned one too many bridges and their savior, Barack Obama, will not extend himself to help. But that's just my two cents.

642 @634 Buy ammo to the point where you'd need to rent storage to buy more. Buy NFA firearms as a hedge. Buy stuff you expect will be illegal. If your interest is food, take a trip abroad. Try Copenhagen first. The best restaurants are there. If your interest is business, try a convenience store that sells alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and sex.

645 604 Bigshots always want to have a restaurant. I've done time in the restaurant industry, and begged people who idealize about getting into it not to. Nothing can be done. They all underestimate the viciousness of the restaurant business, the slim profit margins, the long slog to profit, the difficulty of pulling off serving good food to a great number of people in a short time. Opening a restaurant is not something casually done. Bigshots don't know this. Cannot be convinced of this. They always assume it's a trivial matter they'll overcome, thanks to their bigshotedness. Then they get bit in the ass. Rinse, Repeat.

This. And then, to top it off, the margin of error is so thin that they are constantly preyed on by government. I know a guy who was management in a major chain, retired, and bought a struggling restaurant franchise when they'd gotten down to a single location. Turned that location around, tasty stuff, management was excellent, tried to open a second location -- got screwed sixteen ways to Sunday by the local government "families". Permits were late, asbestos was found, doors needed to be modified, adjoining businesses could block passage to the restaurant, health inspectors mysteriously showed up immediately after prepared foods were loaded into coolers....[little detail on that last. Let's say you have to keep pre-prepared lasagna at 38 degrees until reheated for the customer. So you prep and bake it and throw it in the cooler, and it's crash-cooled until ordered, when it's brought out of the cooler and reheated safely -- like everyone else in the world. Except a health inspector shows up within 20 minutes of when you baked it, hauls it out of the cooler and sticks a thermometer in the middle, and says, "you're keeping your prepared foods at 60 degrees and are going to kill someone with food poisoning."]....



Anyway, running a restaurant is a tricky business, and even those exceptionally gifted with that skill can be sandbagged by other issues.

651 but I used to be a friend to blacks.>>

I was raised to be non racial which was easy since there was only one black kid in my school who happened to be my friend. But out in the real world I got to see something different. There were the ones that fucking worked way harder than me (shook a guys hand that had more calluses than my feet) and the ones with a chip on their shoulder. Same holds true for any race but when 80% of a race you meet has a chip on their shoulder it's hard not to be weary.

652 Excited about Eldora as well. Hope its a good race. The other day I stumbled upon old jayski articles from the mid-late 2000s when all of nascar's track expansion momentum hit the wall. Jayski has a nice record where city after city developers and nascar announce plans for a new track, followed by years of updates and false starts, and then eventually abandoning the idea. The failed attempts to build new tracks in NY, Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, Houston. nascar hit the wall hard in the Great Recession. And sadly in the 2000s with the "nascar Dads" term to replace "soccer Moms" it became politicized. So Democrats started rejecting it out of hand. I think that hurt nascar a lot that it became a "republican" sport. Which is kinda ironic since at the time nascar was doing everything it could to run away from southern white Republican fans and ignore it's roots in the South.

One of them died a few years ago, and the other one now runs them. The problem is that he was the "business" guy in the partnership and was not the "restaurant" guy. He can manage the staff and the business, but the food and restaurants are now looking really bad. One was the "downtown" type of steakhouse with really high prices, nice decor and a strict dress policy. Last night we ate dinner at the place across the street, and half the people going in over there were in shorts, tshirts, and baseball caps. That's fine if you going to Sizzler or Applebees, but a place with $40 steaks, I don't think so. Also, the decor is looking very ratty, but this guy won't update the decor because he doesn't want to spend the money even though as he lowers the standards of the place, he will make it into just another overpriced place that will eventually close,

If you don't know what a Welsh Rabbit is, nor what a ploughman's lunch is, nor the ability to bring a new level of fish-n-chips and bangers-and-mash to the American palate, nor the importance of roast beef on Sundays, nor the proper selection of brews, nor a wide space for darts, nor the understanding of a Branston pickle, for God's sake don't open a British pub. For starters, because you don't have a public house. Maybe nobody in your area actually cares, and you're just fronting an English pub style bar, and you think you can get away with schtick.  Maybe you can. But, whatever you do, be prepared to bust your ass opening a restaurant, thanklessly. It's a long slog towards profit. If you have no experience in the field, I'd say get some. Take a job waiting tables, tending bar, etc. Get a feel for it before you dive in if you haven't. Don't go in blind.

anyone who tries to use the justice system to railroad anyone else   --and is caught redhanded doing that--   should get the sentence their victim would have gotten if convicted.  Have your rape charge proven to be bullshit -- do a rapist's term in prison.


Get caught and have it be proven that you are falsely testifying, playing games with evidence disclosure, making up wizbang science results, or planting evidence in a capital crime?  Sentence is death.

If you don't know what a Welsh Rabbit is, nor what a ploughman's lunch is, nor the ability to bring a new level of fish-n-chips and bangers-and-mash to the American palate, nor the importance of roast beef on Sundays, nor the proper selection of brews, nor a wide space for darts, nor the understanding of a Branston pickle, for God's sake don't open a British pub. For starters, because you don't have a public house. Maybe nobody in your area actually cares, and you're just fronting an English pub style bar, and you think you can get away with schtick. Maybe you can. But, whatever you do, be prepared to bust your ass opening a restaurant, thanklessly. It's a long slog towards profit. If you have no experience in the field, I'd say get some. Take a job waiting tables, tending bar, etc. Get a feel for it before you dive in if you haven't. Don't go in blind.

A lot of the problems that people have in starting "British pubs" in the US is because they don't understand what "British pubs" are.



"Pub" is short for "Public House". In a country where the weather frequently gets miserable, there are places near where you work and live where you can dash in and hang for hours. You drink there, certainly -- just like you drink at home; you eat there.....but the food's not as good as mum's or the wife's; you play darts and watch telly....and when you're tired enough, or there's a pause in the rain, you head home.



But this really doesn't lend itself to the "tables near the fireplace generally have 2 covers every 90 minutes" style of managing American businesses....which, BTW, is far more successful than any style of management heretofore attempted.

He says a British pub is terrible because Brit food is horrendous. Well with a basic understanding of cooking and spices it can be great. And here in the Seattle area there are enough dirty hipsters that would frequent my "international" bar to pre funk for a Sounders soccer (excuse me "futball") game that I could sell them PBR and they'd buy it by the pitcher.

Someone has a drink at your place after having a couple at another bar? You got them drunk, and they went out and killed someone. Some skank decides to get frisky with some guy in your bathroom stall? She decides to say she was raped and say your place didn't ensure her safety, again, you pay. 2 dickheads decide they don't like each other and get in a fight? That thrown glass that hits the 23 year old girl will end up costing you. 16 year old girl gets her 22 year old sister's license and uses it, ABC agents show up, then she decides to pull out her real license, she doesn't get in trouble, you do. Long story short, incorporate and insure your ass up.

739 My one experience with an athlete owned bar. There was four of us from Wisconsin in Kansas City about twenty years ago following Robin Yount and his 3000 hit. Went to Lynn Dickey's Sports bar to have a few before that nights game. Just to make some small talk I asked the bartender if Lynn was around, told him we came all the way from Wisconsin to see him. He said he was out of town for the weekend. About an hour or two later Dickey called the bar for some reason and the bartender told him about us, then handed the phone to me. Dickey kind of apologized for not being there and I told him why we were really there and we chatted for a few minutes about where in Wisconsin we were from, that he used to hunt by us when he was with the Packers, etc. etc.. Handed the phone back to the bartender and I thought that was that, kind of neat just to talk to him. Turns out he told the bartender to buy us a few rounds and give us memorabilia.
Couldn't beat that.

748 652 Excited about Eldora as well. Hope its a good race. The other day I stumbled upon old jayski articles from the mid-late 2000s when all of nascar's track expansion momentum hit the wall. Jayski has a nice record where city after city developers and nascar announce plans for a new track, followed by years of updates and false starts, and then eventually abandoning the idea. The failed attempts to build new tracks in NY, Seattle, Denver, Minneapolis, Houston. nascar hit the wall hard in the Great Recession. And sadly in the 2000s with the "nascar Dads" term to replace "soccer Moms" it became politicized. So Democrats started rejecting it out of hand. I think that hurt nascar a lot that it became a "republican" sport. Which is kinda ironic since at the time nascar was doing everything it could to run away from southern white Republican fans and ignore it's roots in the South. Posted by: Flatbush Joe at July 14, 2013 01:40 AM (ZPrif) We used to go to Martinsville and Richmond for all the races, and we saw all the building that they did at both. I grew up and now live in Roanoke, so I got to see Martinsville grow from not very many seats to 60K, and I lived in Richmond when they expanded the track down there from 1/2 to 3/4 mile and increased the seating to over 100K. I went to the races when they sold both tracks out and the hotels were booked all over. Now? Both have been removing seats and there are hotel rooms available on race weekends now. ISC is now in the process of removing seats at Daytona to get the seating down to about 110K. The new tracks are sadly needed. Martinsville is dying. As much as it hurts me to say, it won't have 2 races a year in 10 years. They have dropped the seating down to 40K there, and they aren't even selling that out. Going to the new markets would help ticket sales, and they want to have the races as spread out as much as they can so more people can go to them. 20 years ago, I could have gone to 16 Cup races within 3-5 hours of Roanoke, now it is less, but there is no way I could even afford to go to that many races now. I don't think the NASCAR dads hurt the sport because I think that was just the Dems wanting to hate on some segment for electoral losses. Back when the "Moms in Tennis Shoes" stunt of the Dems in the 90's, they have been looking for reasons to hate on white men, and bingo, NASCAR made a good scapegoat without knowing it was coming.

765 I love Martinsville, but yeah, I'll be surprised if it holds onto both races. And long term it might lose both. nascar is determined to run on tracks near major metros and Martinsville isn't. And it's in an area with many other tracks not too far away. The nascar fanbase got hit hard by the Great Recession. And high gas prices make people less willing to drive long distances to see a race. Yeah, all the tracks are reducing seating when a decade ago they were all adding seats. nascar actually stopped reporting attendance this year just to avoid the continual embarrassment of reporting ever new records lows. Sad. But nascar isn't at risk of going out of business they just have to adjust to their new normal. Of course, nascar pissed off a lot of the old fans when nascar tried to ditch them during the boom.

I actually think the British version was better because it had more emphasis on the actual turning around of the business instead of the main focus being the conflict between the owners and Ramsay. But the US version is still watchable. It actually does seem like he does care about helping the businesses turning around. I do like the revisits where you see if they are still following the ideas he gave them. But it's kind of awesome to see the places that have shut down because as Aston as he left the owners just went back to the same crap that was putting them out of business to begin with.

With cheap overhead and few competitors, he'd open a new restaurant in a small town, run it for 9 months (being new it would be busy), then sell it to a local sucker.

He made out like a bandit. The buyers- not so much most of the time.

That just seems smart from the short description you have there....and if I pored through his financials, it could easily end up in the "brilliant" category. Savvy, savvy guy.

I think it's all family but the Chinese restaurant in town changes management regularly. It always sucks so I can't nail down why any of them are in the business though.

I've got to say, one suckwad element of fleeing Califuckya is the prospect of ending up in a place with no competent Chinese restaurants. Where are you?

777 710 689- Ashley- this is what my buddy and I talk about concerning a bar- make a simple menu with about five items that are really good and simple to make. As with most businesses, location location. He says a British pub is terrible because Brit food is horrendous. Well with a basic understanding of cooking and spices it can be great. And here in the Seattle area there are enough dirty hipsters that would frequent my "international" bar to pre funk for a Sounders soccer (excuse me "futball") game that I could sell them PBR and they'd buy it by the pitcher. Posted by: Secret squirrel at July 14, 2013 02:01 AM (0SmH0) Problems at the bars are not just the food and alcohol, it's also the staff. Waitress and bartenders decide that they need more tips so they decide to give that group of guys that always tip well a couple rounds "on the house", but you don't know about it. Suzi the waitress has been flirting with the cook to make sure that he gives her a sandwich every night for her dinner, gratis. Traci the waitress has her latest boyfriend come in for his free drinks and dinner every thursday night. Lance the bartender decides that the chick/lad at the end of the bar is going to be his hot dog warmer for the night, so they will be drinking for free that night. All the while you are wondering why your food and beverage costs are going through the roof. The next thing is not to rely on the local sports team for your business. Lunch is where you will make it or break it. Have a good quick lunch, and you will be succesful. If you don't, might as well close up. While you are a "Pub", you will make a shitload more money from sodas, coffee and tea than your beer.

If the owner is comping the beers, that is one thing because it is his/her money. When managers and staff give comps, they are giving away someone else's money. An owner that comps product will find out very soon that his employees will start to follow his/her lead and comp product whenever they feel like it.

841 Aqueducts used to let your city grow past a certain population level, at least in two and three. Now they retain part of the food bin, so you don't have to start from 0 on each population point. Granaries, which used to do that, now give a little extra food per turn.

The combat has changed a lot since the first game (when only one unit in a stack got to defend and the whole stack died if it lost *shivers*). Now it's more like the Panzer General series, so roughly equal units will do about 30% damage to each other and live to fight another day. Tech mismatched units will pretty much result in the lower unit being annihilated with minimal damage to the better unit.

The diplomacy screen is pretty slick, actually. The other leader gives his or her dialogue in their native tongue.

They have only the right to self defense that we all have and their profession raises the odds of such a situation coming up for them. Zimmerman acted as a citizen. Period.

And at some point, will some reporter look into what became of the spate of robberies that had the neighborhood watch out looking in the first place?

OK, y'all, I survived the gig. Full report follows.

 

First, I have to correct an error: I thought that the trial was  taking place up the street from   the gig. It actually took place several miles away at the new facility for Seminole  County. I was   mistaken  and apologize.

 

We played the first set and were into the second one when the verdict   was announced. There was a small crowd at the bar of mixed race (as usual).  Our guitar player  declared the bar  a  "no   riot  zone" and did his best to calm the crowd.  It  worked. When the verdict was announced, there was a subdued reaction. Several folk raised their hands when  they heard it  and said, "Oh yeah."

 

We played the rest of the night with no incidents. I hope they call us again  for another gig.

 

I'll sleep late, so if anyone sees the daywalkers,  let them  know that all is well and I'm still speculating kittehs internationally.

898 NYT online has its lead story just exactly as one would imagine. Headlined with only George's last name and Martin's full name, the "reportage" then weaves its narrative, it's underlying theme of racial injustice barely concealed at all. The many accompanying photos mostly show scenes like those seen when MLK was waked and buried. I think the verdict turned out well for them. Their narrative got further cemented into place. The racial divide just deepened a few feet.

906 The left's worldview (weltanschauung) is so utterly twisted that logic, reason, facts, history, real science etc. have to be completely ignored/sublimated in order to maintain their world view. Every time I hear or read their reactions/comments to these kinds of events, I realize how totally warped and potentially dangerous they are. It's why black conservatives are even more loathed by them than the rest of us by orders of magnitude. My dear friend who is able to use the left's own arguments against them experienced this the other day with his daughter's college co-ed friends. When confronted with the hypocrisy of their own beliefs, they were almost apoplectic; one of them had clenched fists and seemed ready to punch him. A few were shaking and in tears. It was as if he was in stage one of deprogramming someone who was in a cult.

And with community organizers and MSNBC and politicians telling them they're SO RIGHT, they have no reason. Probably the greatest MFM (delenda est) crime is feeding the "you have the right to your own facts" delusion.

It's doubly hard when your worldview has you as the shining goody-two-shoes knight saving the world from evil, and somebody opens up the bloody trail you leave behind you. On top of that, all they have to do is turn on NPR or MSNBC or HuffPo and the soothing voices say "no, they're wrong, you're right." A lot of human group behavior is cult-like, because it works.

915 #911  Quite true.  It's frightening.

I was a liberal as a youth.  Gung-ho for Bobby Kennedy, Civil Rights,  the whole 9 yards.

What cured me was living in West Berlin.  Two incidents stood out in my mind:

1. The riot which drove Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention off the stage at the Sporthalle concert because he was an American.  I was there and it scared the heck out of me.  This was 1968.

2. While riding the Duty Train through East Germany to West Germany,  I looked out the window and saw a farmer  plowing a field.  His WIFE was pulling the plow.

I came home and appreciated this country more than I ever had as a kid.  I was still a democrat,  but had lost my foolish pie in the sky attitude.  Four years of Jimmy Carter made me a Reagan Republican.

It's a shame I can't bottle that experience and dose my own relatives with it.  They are frozen in the attitudes of their youth,  and have never had anything to nudge them a different way.

These days, "discussion" means "toeing the liberal line." If Choom Boy, Brian Williams or the Current Black Celebrity says it, it is automatically true and anyone who dares disagree is some kind of dangerous fool.

The art of listening died out years ago. I can remember a time when discussing anything "serious" meant calm, reasoned opinions (yes, I have known liberals who could do that), but the "I want you to get in their face" crowd, with its rigid and senseless definitions of what is "right" won't allow it now.

Had a good example at home last night, after the verdict was announced. I ended up saying nothing. What good would it do to make a comment? Even intelligent people exposed to years of relentless messaging from the left wind up with brains filled full of nonsensical pap.

Sadly, it has trickled down to conservatives, to some extent. There are those here who are set off by buzzwords and have a knee-jerk reaction for every situation.

Maybe humans shouldn't use their brains. It causes trouble.

Sadly, very few people can remember how to do so.  The first danger comes from a reality that few of us think about, which is:  in order to argue about the details, you end up accepting the premise.


Miss Marples' statement:  "I am now going to make this my firm policy. If
anyone asks me, I am going to say it is "my policy" not to discuss
current events or politics at family functions, and am going to depart
when it starts."


is one of the ways to avoid accepting the flawed premises that pervade our current society, and a good one unless you have unlimited time and patience.

927 910 Posted by: Miss Marple at July 14, 2013 06:58 AM (GoIUi) My friend really is a zen master at making liberals shut up. I've mentioned it many times before, but the way to silence them is not by arguing a conservative position. You have to take their position and then go as far to the left of even them as you can. Works like a charm because they start to argue to the right of you and when they realize it, their pea brains go all short-circuity. It really is amazing to see. The instance that I mentioned with his daughter's friends was the whole war on women/birth control bullshit. I'll paraphrase the coup de grace: "So, you girls are telling me that are happy to become a human toilet to any Tom, Dick and Harry that comes along? It's okay for them to violate you and perpetuate the misogynist paternalistic paradigm so long as you get free birth control? Do you have such low self-respect as to be cool about being bought off this way so that men can abuse you?" Get the idea?

933 George Zimmerman's brother vs. Piers Morgan: http://tinyurl.com/o5z7h72 Morgan repeatedly tries to trap Robert, George's brother, into saying that George is responsible for Trayvon's death. Robert speaks truth to the media. A good interview for the Zimmerman family.

934 "One wonders what Joe Biden thinks." Not this one. And 13/13, no sweat. Gonna send the URL to my SIL who spends half her day reading the local librag and the other half gaping at talking heads, and watch her flame out.

935 12/13... I missed the Euro question- it's a made up money that will soon be going away anyway, so I don't feel that bad. Does anyone know a way to remove the 'V' from LIV's?
