Ah. Second day of March. You know what that means? Spring is near. And that means spring cleaning is right around the corner. So what Household Chores Are The Worst? I'm gonna have to go with the bathroom. At least any bathroom my son uses. Let's just say his aim needs some work. Air Combat Stories
Fascinating read from the early days of the first Gulf War. Gulf Mission From Air Forces Monthly Covering The 614th TFS Lucky Devils.
Multiple SAMs were launched at the package, some ballistic and unguided and some tracking with a full system lock-on. In spite of this, some members of the package refused to jettison their bombs until clear of the city to avoid possible damage to civilian non-combatants. One of the missiles guided toward Clap 4, piloted by Capt. Mike Cujo Roberts. A missile break warning sounded over the radio and Cujo saw the missile as it guided towards him. It passes behind his aircraft and detonates, and Cujo believes he is safe until his aircraft begins to pitch over and he loses control. As the jet approaches negative 1'g', Cujo ejected over downtown Baghdad. No one observed an ejection, nor saw a 'chute.Meanwhile, ET became separated from the rest of the package because of his missile defensive break turns. As he defeats the missiles coming off the target, additional missiles are fired, this time, from either side of the rear quadrants of his aircraft. Training for SAM launches up to this point had been more or less book learning, recommending a pull to an orthogonal flight path 4 seconds prior to missile impact to overshoot the missile and create sufficient miss distance to negate the effects of the detonating warhead. Well, it works. The hard part though, is to see the missile early enough to make all the mental calculations.
The energy required to execute these missile break turns forced Maj. Tullia's jet to descend to 10,000ft (3,050ml, which put him in the heart of the AAA envelope. The only answer in this case was to select afterburner in order to increase airspeed and climb. However, being extremely low on fuel, and 700 nautical miles from home, afterburner must be used very judiciously. Before sufficient airspeed is increased, however, ET is faced with another multiple missile launch. In this case two separate SA-6 missile sites launch at his jet while he is climbing out of the AAA envelope. By continuing to unload his aircraft, ET watches the missiles as they close on his aircraft. The unloading and accelerating causes his aircraft to change its flight path, and a change in the missile flight path can be observed as well. As the timed break turns are accomplished, one missile flies so close that ET can hear the roar of the rocket as it passes where, just a fraction of a second earlier, the right wing was. Two missiles are launched towards him from the front of his aircraft and can be easily seen on his HUD film. Finally, as he reaches the outskirts of the city an optically guided missile of unknown type is fired. There is no radar warning of the launch, but the track of the missile can easily be observed to be guiding towards his aircraft. A defensive turn overshoots the missile, and Maj. Tullia proceeds on his way, now searching for the rest of his Flight.
Here's the HUD video of Major Tullia's flight that day.

CGI Audrey Hepburn
Holy crap this is sooo good. She was one beautiful woman and it is spooky how good computers are getting today. We just might see a movie with dead CGI actors like Lucas hinted at a few years ago.

Impressive. 6 of 20 finalists for Miss Israel Are Soldiers. I'd like to see a shooting competition added to the swimsuit part of the show.

#Sequester Diaries
Day 2- Evening falls. The struggle for food continues. It seems like forever since my last meal. Foraging in the darkened kitchen I hear a rustling sound in the corner. I lunge, and by sheer fortune my hand lands on the target of my attentions. With one quick twist of my wrist I split my prize in two. Now I am faced with the age-old dilemma.
Should I lick off the Double-Stuft creme filling before or after I dunk the Oreo in milk?

BCochran, it's easy because Megan is a vapid bint who thinks she is perfect and everyone else is there for her. Hence why she got fired from Transformers 3. You never call anyone working for Steven Spielberg a Nazi. The woman is dumb. Her picture is next to the word dumb.

Well, it looks like after about six straight months of unemployment with no work whatsoever (apart from a few hours cleaning the church every week), I am going to get a bit of work substituting for a local teacher Monday. The bad news is that the teacher in question is my Dad, who was just diagnosed with pneumonia.
Hopefully I won't get it before then.

The jeers grew so loud toward the end of the parade that mayoral candidate and Council Speaker Christine Quinn appeared to break away from the mayor to march separately.
A spokesman for Quinn later said she always intended to walk separately from the mayor.
Locals didn’t spare their ire over the area’s slow recovery, hoisting signs reading, “Mr. Mayor, we need jetties” and “Listen to the Rockaways.”
“We’ve been dying down here, up to our ears in muck trying to rebuild, get back to a regular life,” one heckler told The Post.
“For the politicians to come down here and try to take our celebration and make it their thing … it’s disgusting.”
At the end of the route, Bloomberg thanked the Sanitation Department, said, “This was a great day for the Rockaways,” and abruptly jumped in his car.
Bloomberg wasnÂ’t the only politician crossed by parade-goers.
Revelers heckled Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer after he cheered through a bull horn, “Let’s hear it for the Rockaways.”
“Send money, pal. Send money!” one heckler yelled back. “Talk is cheap!”

What they have found so far has shocked even scholars steeped in the history of the Holocaust.
The researchers have cataloged some 42,500 Nazi ghettos and camps throughout Europe, spanning German-controlled areas from France to Russia and Germany itself, during HitlerÂ’s reign of brutality from 1933 to 1945.
The figure is so staggering that even fellow Holocaust scholars had to make sure they had heard it correctly when the lead researchers previewed their findings at an academic forum in late January at the German Historical Institute in Washington.
“The numbers are so much higher than what we originally thought,” Hartmut Berghoff, director of the institute, said in an interview after learning of the new data.
“We knew before how horrible life in the camps and ghettos was,” he said, “but the numbers are unbelievable.”

sven, you dumb bastard. Obama took out bin Laden with two helicopters and 24 Navy Seals.
And Dumbya wasted two trillion?
1) Killing bin Laden does not equal victory. Do you understand the long-term strategic aims behind the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq? Hint: It was not to kill Osama, though would have been a nice bonus.
2) The stricke that killed bin Laden was the result of a decade of work, mostly done under Bush, most of which was opposed by Obama. Obama is again claiming credit for something which he had very little to do with, probably because it is the only success in that area that he can claim.

yeah I agree with NDH, you will never ever ever convince idiot trolls like Hymenpooper here of anything other than Obama = God and Bush = Dumb. I don't get it sometimes. It's almost as if they think that using critical thinking skills means "buying into the Republican agenda" so they refuse to do it.

We had one of those hi-fi cabinet things, with speakers hidden behind tasteful (well, tasteful in the early '60s) mesh and a turntable hidden behind rolling doors. It looked so good that my Mom used it as a side table long after it had ceased to be useful as a sound system. (Interesting, the style of furniture like the hi-fi is apparently retro hip now; I saw IowaHawk singing its praises on his blog a while back.)

My grandad went out to a shed to get some supplies, and a bunch of tarantulas were in there and jumped at him, several feet. Fastest my dad ever saw grandad move.
I think it was shortly after that episode that my grandad gave in to my grandmother's pleadings and came back to Indiana.

I made furniture for kicks and grins when I was much younger. Reproductions and such. The furniture that goes with all this old AV equipment was/is good stuff, IF you like the style.
I have the solid black walnut table/stand to my aunt's 1940's Philco Radio. It is very well made furniture. My Dad's 1965 GE stereo, also solid black walnut cabinetry, and very well done

Hot items currently are the following, for any of you who are cleaning out your homes or your parents' homes:
Vintage colored glass from the 1950-1970 era, including those godawful orange stretch vases.
Vintage toys from the 60's and 70's. I just sold a Mattel Time Machine for $50.
Vintage jewelry and clothing from the 50's and 60's, especially designer stuff and signed costume jewelry.
Vintage Christmas decor from the 50's, including stenciled Christmas ornaments and hard plastic reindeer and Santas.
If you ever wonder about stuff you have, leave me a note on the morning news thread and I will tell you my best estimate on the price.

I never understood the love for Julia Roberts at any point in her career. She has a mouth like a frigging Pez dispenser. Stuff of nightmares. The most attractive picture I ever saw of her also made her unrecognizable, which doesn't strike me as a compliment.

I have slowly expanded and now have a store. My best profit this year was buying a $10 Lalique bowl with a chip and selling it at auction to a collector in the UK for $736.00. That there is some good profit!
It's a perfect business for me because I have a weird sort of brain which remembers things I see in articles and magazines, and I therefore know what is currently collectible and can be sold.
It keeps me busy while my husband mines gold in Africa. LOL!

But at same time do not think, just because its rare, it will sell. I know an idiot on eBay who thinks because they have a super rare resin kit that is now 23 years old they can ask any price they want. $425 asking and no one is bidding on it.

Best way to check value is to go into eBay "advanced search" (in upper right corner of the screen in small letters). Type in your model and year and then check the box for "completed listings." Then hit the blue search button.
You will see all the completed sales and what they sold for (in green). Those that did not sell will be in red.

It's not possible for a human being to truly hold such ridiculous opinions.
Sorry, but they do. I have a pretty good friend who is a Noam Chomsky (and others of that ilk) reading, total leftist who thinks we were wrong to invade Afghanistan after 9-11, that Obama is inspiring, and that the Iraq war was about Bush/Ceyney and oil. Really.
He is totally self made in a tough business, worth millions, retired in his mid-50s, has two great kids, and is putting most of his $ away for charity so his kids don't get too spoiled.
He has said he cannot conceive of why I hold the political beliefs I do, and I've said the same to him. We have to agree to not discuss too much or we couldn't be friends. Some people are just wired differently, they really are. He's done the reading and studying, he gets news from a number of sources, traveled to Palestine and Israel a few years ago to try to understand the conflict, etc. He's not even really very political. He just is a leftist and you couldn't shake his beliefs with a sledge hammer. Go figure.

In this case, 'most popular' should be read as 'named recognized by a substantial portion of Americans.'
Consider, how many governors can you name outside your own state or an adjoining state? Most don't get a lot of national news mention unless there is some major disaster in their state or they are a renown lunatic. Here in CA we've hit the awful governor jackpot with Jerry Brown.

Evening horde.
Those of you crying for the poor GYNs in the previous thread, they've got nothing on us ER docs. We do pelvic exams on 3 types of women in general--there are also the normal ones but those are few and far between.
1) Crazy women
2) Women who are having or think they are having a miscarriage. Sometimes they are crazy, and sometimes she takes off her pants and BAM! fetus.
3) Crack whores. Only we get to see these, because crack whores do not go the gynecologist, or any other kind of doctor. The ER is their one-stop medical clearinghouse. And without even clicking on that damn link, I can assure you I've seen worse.

Other reasons to hate the Dodgers;
Time Warner Cable signed a multi-year 8 BILLION dollar contract with them. Before one fan shows up they get 500 million a year to play with
Hanley Ramirez and Josh Beckett, although those two are so cancerous they might tear the team apart from within
They jam up traffic everywhere within 10 miles of Dodger Stadium

Damn. One of the great joys of having Brewers season tickets in 2011 was seeing Zack on the mound. When that guy is on, he can rack up strike-outs like nobody's business. I envy Blue Jays fans this season, they're going to have fun watching Dickey.

As a Mets fan I'll miss Dickey, although the young players we got will go a long way to rebuilding. Dickey is not only a pretty smart guy, he seems like a good guy.
I'll be rooting for the Tampa Rays, but I don't mind seeing the Jays breaking Yankee and Red Sox hearts.

The Reds in Cincinnatti also pre-empt talk radio. Of course the talk radio there is original. And that's even with there being a separate other AM station that does sports as well. 700 is the home of the Reds so that's the station they air on.

I just got in from a gig. All went well, we were cooking and about three songs into our last set, the power goes out.
Not just for the club, for the entire island (this is in FL). I had to drive for fifteen minutes to find a traffic light that worked. It's now almost four hours later, and not one word about it on the local news. And this is one of the coldest nights of the year down here.

The bass player in this vid I've played with since he was in HS, he's really a guitar player, and a fucking monster. He, the drummer and I had a band together for about 5 years.
Drummer had a stroke about two years ago, not sure if or when he'll ever play again, he was the best shuffle drummer I've ever had the pleasure of hearing or playing with. He played with Lucky Peterson for a while. I played with the bass/guitar player Friday night at BB King's club down here.
Damned good friends, all.

I play a Fender Jazz Plus V. She's been my baby for nearly 20 years. They only made them for about three years, Lace Sensor (active) pickups with bass boost and an Off position to save the battery, rosewood neck, tobacco sunburst body. If that bass could talk, I'd be in jail today.
I've also got a Fender P-bass made in China (9600 yuan I pay for that), a Yamaha double-scale fretless 4-string, a Peavy neck-through, and an Ashbory fretless (the little one that uses rubber strings, sound like an upright).

Well, I'm not exhausted, but the adrenaline is still flowing, so I'm having a beer and a shot of American Honey (I don't drink much at gigs any more) and typing to the imaginary people who live in my computer.
I'm pushing the big 6-0 and can still do it, but this equipment gets heavier every year. I'd like for Santa to bring me a Roland Cube bass amp. 120 watts, 43 lbs. Around $600. One 12" and a tweeter, with lots of buttons and knobs for shaping the sound.

I went with GK microbass. 1-12" in about a 26 lb. unit. Spendy, but worth it. No tweeter, but good sound. I can put it in a bag, put the bag over my shoulder, pick up my footpedal with that hand, put my bass over my other shoulder and have a hand free for the door, keys, etc. Literally I'm a 1-trip bass player. Plenty for a small room. Good direct out if there is house sound. In bigger places I use 2. I got 2 off of Ebay for good prices so I actually have 3 of them. I have played outside using 3 and it worked pretty darned good. I was surprised.

Live venues are shrinking everywhere, it seems. 120 watts? That enough for your bass?
The unit I have now is an ancient (nearly 20 years old) Fender Combo bass cabinet with a single 15" speaker. It's 300 watts into 4 ohms, which requires another cabinet (which I've done, awesome sound), by itself, it's 150 W. Suits the blues sound well, and I don't pop or slap like Victor Wooten. You'll only get one sound from a Fender bass, but it's the right one.
I've had the cops called on me several times for the volume.
Modern solid-state bass amps work really well. They're rugged and sound well for live venues. If I were to record, I have another cabinet with one 12", one 8" and a tweeter, which pretty much captures everything the producer/engineer needs. The best I've heard so far is the Ampeg tube bass amp and cabinet setup. That's another letter to Santa...

come to think of it, if he is aphasic, he probably IS telling stories about you, but no one knows what he said unless they know him pretty well and, hell, that means the heard the story before anyway.

Oh yeah, the old Ampeg things weren't bad at all. Fender combo is a good amp. If you're not playing with captain volumes, then the 150w might do it. 300w with a 15" plus another box I wouldn't mind having myself. Used to have an old Fender bassman (I think it was), 120w? Nice sound, but not enough. Had to give it up after melting it a couple of times. Went up to 500w with another amp and used that for live + studio. Went well with the old Jazz. Interesting that you rate the solid states over the valves. Will have to consider it. The 500w was SS, but it was a very fancy one. Have always reckoned that going big with Bass, and driving it as low as possible is the best for Bass. Opposite of guitar- small amp, driven hard.

Well, I grew up in Alabama, which was not exactly a hotbed of talent. Birmingham is gaining a reputation for music, the country group Alabama came from Ft. Payne, Wet Willie and Jimmy Buffet are from Mobile (as am I). I have a shoebox full of old ticket stubs from shows such as the Stories (Louie, Louie, Louie, Lou-I), the Dixie Dregs, Emerson, Lake and Palmer and Yes (go figure), Captain Hook and His Traveling Medicine Show, and most of the Southern rock groups before they broke out. Little Feat, Charlie Daniels, Marshall Tucker, Grinderswitch and Lynyrd Skynyrd all cruised through there at various times. I roadied for Bob Seger and met Harry Chapin and his band as a student at Jacksonville State.
Florida gets its share of big name acts, too, and I've opened for a couple of them. Like Leon Russel, Humble Pie and Tinsley Ellis. I backed up Jimmie Vaughn once at a meet-and-greet at a local music store, which was way cool, and sat in with Lucky Peterson, thanks to my old drummer.
I wouldn't call it a career, but I've had a lot of fun.

I recommend tubes for the studio and SS for the road. IMO, you can't have too much power for the bass.

That's a very lovely cartesian graph.
It reminds me in a way of a reimann sum (does the capital sigma ring a bell?).
But without limits there's not really any math.
I like to think that last line on the x-axis is the modulus of rupture

Cartesian graphs don't mean anything at all if you don't give your audience any idea about what the slope represents.
A lot of people can deduce a lot from a simple cartesian graph like this, but when it comes to winning Obama voters? They probably need to spend a few years in a labor camp, and 75% of them still won't get it.

Awesome. Half of the hopeless Obama voters (the evil ones) could now convince the other half (the stupid ones) that not being stupid and/or evil is "cool."
I think that's brilliant!
Seriously You Guys!

Chart is a lie.
I don't know where this chart is coming from but it has to be wrong. The sequester is a reduction in the pre-planned increase. There is no cut. In FY2013 the federal government will spend more than it did FY2012, sequestration or no sequestration.
Why is this concept so hard for conservatives to understand. Stop calling it a cut, there is no damn cut.
