Whew. It's Friday. Grab a drink, depants and hop on in to the ONT.
And please, if you are a beer drinker, you should really double up on your rations as the current beer crisis could trigger the next Ice Age.

Now this is the American spirit. Army amputee completes grueling air assault school. Meanwhile, 14 million Americans are claiming disabilities so they can draw some sweet Uncle Sugar cash and stay home instead of work. Some of these people should be ashamed of what they claim as a disability.
Who's On First?

Our enemies love this shiite. Back in September of last year, Obama said that "no leader ties his hands" with "set conditions" and Panetta went even further:
US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta dismissed Netanyahu’s engagement of Obama on the issue of preemption, saying, “The fact is [that] presidents of the United States, prime ministers of Israel or any other country – leaders of these countries don’t have, you know, a bunch of little red lines that determine their decisions.”
So of course, in December, Obama announces his red line for Syria. This was just political posturing by Obama to make him look like a tough Commander-in-Chief.
It would be deeply inconvenient for the president of the United States to have to go to war in Syria when he placidly assures the American public that the tide of war is receding. U.S. intervention grows even more inconvenient since our unwillingness to help the rebels has led them to take help from quarters we disapprove of -- are we to fight alongside the al Nusra front, which we (rightly) characterize as a terrorist organization with al Qaeda links?It is a problem of the president's own making, of course: He took a strident stand that any chemical weapons use would be a "game changer" precipitating American military involvement. This president likes to look tough on the international scene -- even when he's leading from behind he's taking all the credit. So we have policies designed to showcase Obama as a commanding commander in chief. In order to keep him from having to make good on his threats, the administration has taken to relying on intelligence assessments as his opt-out.
The Syria evasion is of a piece with Obama administration deflections of other intelligence conclusions that would force a change to their policies: Iran and North Korea.
All talk, no bite and more about Obama's own personal political interest than what is in America's best interest. No one likes an undependable ally. Gee, I wonder what happened to all the lefties who raged against politicizing intelligence assessments?

Sequestration
What sequestration? DoD signs contract for $59 a gallon jet fuel. Even though this contract costs only $215,350 with the potential to take on an additional $737K, it is still something that should be put on hold with sequestration ongoing, especially when JP-8 costs $3.73 a gallon.
The Eta Aquarid Meteor Shower

This weekend, some of you will get a chance to see the Eta Aquarid Meteor shower. Best time seems to be in the pre-dawn hours from 4-7 May.

Looks like the hubby may not have been the only Tsarnaev interested in radical Islamist reading material after all. A search of Katherine Russell TsarnaevÂ’s computer turned up data from Inspire, the recruitment magazine published by al-Qaeda online, as well as other material that makes her more interesting than an average witness
Well, she probably didn't know terrorist stuff was on her computer, right? Nor did she know hubby and brother-in-law were making bombs using the kitchen sink and bathtub!
A bathtub and kitchen sink in the Cambridge apartment of deceased Boston Marathon bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev tested positive for residue from explosives, corroborating his surviving brother DzhokharÂ’s claims that the duo built bombs at the home, a federal law enforcement source said Friday.

I'd call it more of an "admission", than a "brag. Nevertheless, with an ONT up at 8:30, it's hard to manage the intake without having "last call" at 11PM, which didn't actually occur till 1:30AM.
And no matter the quality, the quantity will get you in the end.

Twice a day I give my big ass dog thyroid pills. Sometimes shoved in a Pupperoni, sometimes I can fool him into taking it naked.
But twice a day, as I do that, the Siamese cat comes and yells for a treat at the same time.
The two things aren't linked. Cats don't get treats when dog gets medicine. How does cat know to beg for crap then?

We called an exterminator...he told us to call a beekeeper who will take them and transfer them to a proper place.
Beekeeper came out Monday, set up a temporary hive to transfer bees to. It's been here all week, slowly the bees are accepting their new home.
Today, a member of the city Zoning Services knocked on our door, stating that there have been "numerous complaints" about us "setting up and erecting beehives right next to the road."
After explanation of what we were doing and how we didn't just want to kill the bees, he understood, got stung, and left.
Fucking complainers...I'd like to sic these fucking bees on them. No one can mind their own business.

No, no honey, though maybe when all the bees leave the old hive we can find some.
However, we know how valuable bees are to crops and whatnot, so we decided to try and save them instead of outright wipe them out. Fuck it if people can't seem to understand that shit. We have big signs and everything that say "keep away! beware of bees!"
Fuckers.

A. My wife wouldn't watch it. I said you've watched stuff on the Holocaust...response, well that wasn't in my lifetime. I understand people's sensibilities but this makes no sense to me. We need to recognize evil to confront it, this was one sick bastard, and IT EXISTS TODAY. We need to confront and punish this evil. That sick f*ck keeps smiling throughout. I've actually gotten away from supporting the death penalty over the years, but if anyone deserves it this bastard does. He dealt out hundreds of deaths, why should he be bothered if it comes to him?
B. Good for the Israelis.
C. Rubio is an idiot or opportunistic politician. Surprise.
D. Liked the puppies vid. We have a 3 yo yellow lab, best dog we've ever had.

No, not at all. Bees occur naturally. In NC you would have to prove a bee from that hive stung you. Try that.
Her sign is a problem, since it suggests that she has some obligation to inform anyone that there are bees there. Bees are every fucking where.
Peanut farmers don't put signs up saying, peanut dust ahead. Lot's of people say they are allergic to peanuts, which I think is BS.

I've told this story before, but.......
My dad was a consultant at a Catholic hospital in NYC.
An Albanian woman gave birth to a baby who had a serious structural defect of the spine that, if left untreated, would result in a massive infection and certain death. The upside was that it was treatable with aggressive antibiotic therapy (my dad's specialty) and surgery.
The stone-age father said...."kill it."
The nurses when apoplectic, and wanted to strangle the father. The nurse supervisor ( a catholic nun) called my dad, who said to call the hospital lawyers, who promptly went to court to get permission to treat the baby.
The judge heard the facts, told the father to get fucked, and the kid was treated successfully.
It's almost as if respect for life actually meant something!

Ag products by definition do not fit that category. Honey bees are NOT inherently dangerous. People get stung by bees millions of times a year. Bees are not classified as a dangerous product any more than cows or pigs. In fact honey bees are very docile. Now don't fuck with paper wasps or African bees.

Scrape and wire brush your stone once it is up to temp.
Once you are done, mop it completely with a wet towel. (Don't use a good towel this.)
Pizza Stones are porous and when those pores get filled with flour, they will burn your crust and/or cook unevenly.

Houston synagogues and schools have been receiving bomb threats of late. So today, he stopped in at a local synagogue to sign autographs and talk to people. Cause he made friends with a couple of holocaust survivors at a nearby Jewish nursing home.

In both cases, the idea of "an opinion" does not exists. There is THE TRUTH and there's everything else. Liberals believe that they are in possession of THE TRUTH, rather than tired old opinions which kill people, so they see no need to examine their beliefs. Why should they? Why would someone need to prove that water is wet, blood is red, and the Jews are responsible for everything bad?
So yes, Liberalism and Islam are the two greatest brain diseases of our age. At least the Commies know they want power, and have no delusions that what they do, they do for the "greater good."
A plague upon them all.

Thing that gets me is the "county-option" farce. Mind you, these aren't counties like they have out west -- LA County is 4752 square miles with just shy of 10M people (compare with Rhode Island which is 1214 square miles and a pop of just over a million). You might have to exert yourself to drive out of LA county for some liquor.....but Moore County, TN (home of the Jack Daniel's distillery, and famously dry) is only 130 square miles. I'd have a hard time mailing a postcard, buying a head of lettuce, grabbing some 2x4s and deck screws from Home Depot, and filling my tank with gas without "falling out of" a county that small.

I have a unique mixer, I made it from a K-tel pasta maker with mods and a dough hook from a cheap mixer.
Uses a 5 lb bag of flour for a batch. The K-tel unit was built like a tank except for the plastic bin and I have been using it foryears , probably 5 or 6 in the original config and 5 in the mod. it is as powerful as a Kitchenaid and draws about 100 watts, about 1/4 the Kitchenaid, due to the gear reduction.
Can't stop it even gripping with your fist, carefully. I think it will probably out last me. Paid about 5$ for it, never had been used. I picked up another a few years ago for a backup but will probably never need it, just use for homemade pasta once in a while.

I built a cattle fence zapper once , my brother insisted on grabbing the wire and was impressed, didn't get to see that. Had a tv flyback transformer in it.
I made a zapper to keep racoons out of my chickens once but scrapped it, It had a transformer from a microwave oven and was lethal, I didn't want to accidentally kill someone. No I didn't hand test that one, It was 4 kV and plenty of current.

Couldn't afford one so made my own, hardly believe it's still working. I open it up and oil the motor bearings sometimes, the gears are 1/2 " thick nylon and greased, and the whole thing is on a plywood stand/ base with a grip for the bowl. Worked out the details one day home sick and built it next day or so. Not fancy but I could paint it. Somewhat noisy is the only drawback and it makes static on the tv and radio.

And on reflection, it's kind of pathetic that the Star Wars thing is more of a legit celebration than the Cinco de Mayo thing. Both are commercial in nature but one is in celebration of a commercial success attaining cultural influence, while the other was simply made up to sell Mexican beer brands the way St. Patrick's Day sold the competition.

Of course, good pie can also be purchased in other areas of NM.
We are having our Cherry Festival (High Rolls Mountain Park Lions Club, where the local church sells the pies) June 5-16 in High Rolls, up Highway 82 between Alamogordo and Tularosa, 9 - 5 Saturday and 9-4 Sunday, so come on up!)
But you can buy pies any day driving up that highway at various vendors.
And they are pretty good!

They might as well ban the plumbing department at Home Depot too. For about $10 in pipe nipples and end caps you can make a slap-fire shotgun faster than that 3D printer can make a plastic gun

Well put. If I were a douchebag politician (but I repeat myself), I'd be more worried about single-shot short-barrel shotgun-firing quadcopters with video than any general-purpose firearm. Park one on a rooftop along a parade route, wait several hours, get in some alley within line-of-sight....and it pops-up, swoops-in, you fire everything it's got, self-destruct the control circuits, and walk away with the controller under your coat. Just like "gun-free zones" are guaranteed shooting galleries, no rational person (note "sanity" is not a parameter) will go up against a popular figure head-on. They have security; it's not likely to work. But doing RC control from the left while the weapon swings in from the right....that can make things interesting.

Facial recognition code is fairly good these days. GPS is very small and lightweight. I wouldn't have a remote control signal that took longer than a single complex key ending with a GO command. Long enough not to be accidental, short enough to be indistinguishable from noise. After that, it is entirely autonomous and no signal can alter its behavior. Or don't have a signal at all but rather a physical button. If they battery is good enough for half an hour you can launch from a good distance away and be very far away before anything results.
Make a couple dozen and have them do harmless goofy stuff in the vicinity so that nobody thinks it untoward when one approaches the target. That one is different.
You could probably reprogram an old iPhone to all of the sensing and processing. Acquiring old smartphones that have changed hands a dozen times since their first sale shouldn't be hard.
Fortunately, the evil genius is a lot rarer in real life than in comics or movies. The potential is pretty scary. A group of folks I used to have dinner with weekly in the 80s and 90s sometimes got into the discussion of what a real super-villain who wanted to be showy might do. After 9/11 a lot of the participants refused to admit they ever had such thoughts.

Copters suck power like crazy. I know some guys with big'ish electric helis and they don't get even 10min on a LiPo that weighs a few pounds.
To carry any kind of payload, you're into $5,000 gassers and they ain't too quiet. One guy I know does professional camera work with one and its big and heavy, but it'll carry a 15lb payload.
With all the CF and aluminum, the helis aren't particularly radar transparent. Something with wings, out of foam/balsa, would be a minimal radar profile. A small 2.5cc model diesel engine with a quart of fuel would run for long time.
I've got an old (but new) small high performance Soviet built 1.5cc diesel that will run about 5min on 2oz.

You can get a cheap mill that'll do the job at harbor freight. Spend some time tuning it up, and you'll have a real tool.

What do they do, PA? I've overhauled my share of Bridgeport mills, scraped ways, replaced spindle bearings and stuff like that. If they're made relatively well, there shouldn't be much to do except maybe tighten up the ways.
You'd really need to watch the depth of cuts, and have cutters that won't overwhelm the little motors.

Tighten up all the lash/slop in the traverse and shit like that. Fit ball screws, maybe some better bearings, reinforce any weak spots that got too much flex.
Maybe a better chuck, but I've read that the Chinese chucks and spindles actually run pretty true most of the time.
With the full monty of tuneups, I've read that they're good for precision work in the tenth range, which is good enough for most stuff.
Posted by: @PurpAv at May 04, 2013 01:49 AM (/gHaE)
Luv the prints. That takes me back...
If you can afford them, get Mitutoyo measuring instruments. I have several, and they've served me well over the years. IIRC, Harbor Freight does carry them, as does Carr-Lane.
That set-up in the links with the drill press is interesting. I'd have bolted the bottom vise to the plate, tho'. You'd really need to watch how much of a cut you took, cause despite being made of metal, all those vises together will flex under a load. The small spindle motor should keep you in check, since it's not very robust.

Years ago my dad had a small high precision drill press with a thin flat belt driving the spindle. If you hogged into something too hard, the flat belt just popped off.
Yeah, the laws of physics usually keep you in line.
Many, many years ago, I used a woodworking router to cut a pocket in my '77 Precision Bass to accept a BadAss bridge. Went to the hardware store and bought a 3/8" end mill, put it in the chuck, traced the outline of where the bridge went, and milled down about 1/4" into the body. Had a nice snug fit and the bass sounded great, particularly with the new pickups I also put in it. Sustain City.
Damn, I wish I had that bass back.

Stupidly, I sold it. Had BBoy Squared and all of the attendant responsibilities, and all that. Bought a nice Minolta SLR camera with the proceeds and played with that for a couple of years before the music bug bit me again.
That was a really nice bass. It's kinda like wanting your first car back.
Teej, is that a Strat? If so, I'm pretty sure you can replace it with a 5-position switch. However, that's a job for your friendly local luthier, or at least it would be for me. The pickups I put in that PBass were passive, it came with instructions, and I can solder reasonably well. Also wired in a phase switch.
Being a gearhead is a lot of fun.

Nooooooooooo! *sob* That's the worst. Dammit. 77 precision would have been nice. The magic is... gone. Sad. I think I'd rather have heard it was nicked, actually. Or, at least pawned for something unsavoury. You weren't all that in love with the precision pick ups? Prefer the Jazz ones myself, but the Precision has the best neck in any bass, hands down.

I ordered that bass with a narrow maple neck from the factory, since I have small hands. I was also into prog rock at the time and dabbling in jazz. This was about the time of Jaco Pastorius' first release. I could get reasonably close to his sound and Chris Squire's too, with a pick, on that one bass.
I made up for the lost years when I got back into playing again. I now have 5 basses including a nice cheap little Yamaha double-scale fretless and an Ashbory,(little bitty short scale plastic fretless with the rubber strings) which can sound like an upright. Need a new, smaller, lighter amp tho'. The Fender combo amp I've been toting around for 20 years gets heavier every year.

60'-something... This was like 30 years ago back when I was young, stupid, and needed money for food one week. Had some huge 300W amp for it too that would shake the house.
The only thing I remember anymore was I liked the sound it made with the nylon coated strings.

I had a Fender Jazz...pre-CBS. Sold it years ago. Probably worth a mint today
Yup. Any Fender that old has appreciated greatly.
I'm torn on which would be better: an old bass that has been played or one kept in a closet or under a bed that's in pristine condition. The vibration from playing does something to the wood, IIRC, there was a company some years ago that could "age" a guitar by vibrating it for a while.
OTOH, a pristine instrument would be something else, too.
