22 Maps That Show How Americans Speak English Totally Different From Each Other. Equality

Well, well. Looks like we're finally getting some equality when it comes to dishin' out punishment for teacher sex predators. Female teacher, 45, gets life in prison for having sex with 14 year old student.

Apparently the juries in Columbus, Georgia haven't heard of the double standard for female teachers accused of having sex with underage boys. Typically, these ladies get probation or a brief (months) jail term, while their male counterparts receives years and years in prison.
But not this time. This time a jury slapped former teacher Cristina Preston, 45, with a LIFE sentence, with no chance of parole for 25 years after she was caught in a parked car in a park with underage boy.

Useless College Courses

With college getting so dang expensive, you'd think that folks would avoid classes that are really a waste of your time and money. 20 Completely Ridiculous College Courses Being Offered At U.S. Universities. Of course, college leadership could help out by doing away with some ridiculous graduation requirements that have nothing to do with your actual degree but force you take these electives.

6. "Invented Languages: Klingon and Beyond" (The University Of Texas) - Why would anyone want to learn Klingon? Who really speaks Esperanto, anyway? Could there ever be a language based entirely on musical scales? Using constructed/invented languages as a vehicle, we will try to answer these questions as we discuss current ideas about linguistic theory, especially ideas surrounding the interaction of language and society. For example, what is it about the structure of Klingon that makes it look so "alien"? What was it about early 20th century Europe that spawned so many so-called "universal" languages? Can a language be inherently sexist? We will consider constructed/invented languages from a variety of viewpoints, such as languages created as fictional plot-devices, for philosophical debates, to serve an international function, and languages created for private fun. We won't be learning any one language specifically, but we will be learning about the art, ideas, and goals behind invented languages using diverse sources from literature, the internet, films, video games, and other aspects of popular culture.

Let The Wookie Win

Good lord, the TSA thinks a lightsaber cane is a weapon? It's never wise to upset a wookie.

The actor known for his role as the Wookiee from Star Wars had his cane confiscated by airport security on his way back from a Sci-Fi convention. Seven-plus-foot-tall Peter Mayhew had his lightsaber cane seized when TSA thought it was an actual weapon, but thanks to some pictures posted to Twitter, they let the Wookiee win.

50 Evening all!! Well, apparently I owe my husband big when I get up to the new house. Two hours into the drive, the cat had nervous diarrhea in the car. He and my daughter were stopped on the side of the highway, cleaning the cat's butt, while the dogs cried because of the smell. AFter they got going again, one of the dogs had to go to the bathroom (yes, hubby asked the dog why it didn't go when they were stopped...because it didn't need to then, of course) But the dog is so excited to get out and potty, it wraps itself around his legs and trips him. He proceeds to fall on his glasses and break them. They are only about four hours late to their destination, which surprises me. Yeah, I guess I do owe him pretty big.

cranky, but no runny -- check fuel, air, spark.

If its been really rainy, and the ride is some years old, hose down distributor cap and plug wires with WD-40 to displace any water that may be shorting out spark. Reseat plug wires at same time. Real old plug rubbery plug wires can crack exposing carbon conductor to moisture. The pricier silicone ones aren't as prone to this.

Ok, from out in AZ! Jim's brothers name is irrelevant as he did not MAKE the knife he just gave it to his brother. The knife was made by James Black and was widely copied even in England.

Of course I cheat I did an article on the knife for a local club about 6 months ago!

When you exited the dealers room, you ended up on the far side of the convention center and had to walk all the way around the center to get back near the entrance where they had everything else/ 3). For the AMV context we had to stand in line for hours, and then waited over hours sitting down (not being allowed to leave lest we loose our seats) until way past the start time they told us that the laptop with the AMVs was stolen and that we should all just leave.

Thought you'd be interested... just read an article about Presidential nicknames. As we all know. Andrew Jackson was known as "Ol' Hickory." Well, historians have recently been pow-wowing and coming up with the official nicknames for our more modern presidents. Here's their findings of the nicknames most suitable for 20th century POTUSes.

- Truman: Ol' "I'll nuke your ass"
- Eisenhower: Ol' "I'm not really here"
- Kennedy: Ol "Show me where the drugs and hookers are"
- Johnson: Ol' Crazyshit
- Nixon: Ol' "This is a recording"
- Ford: Ol' placeholder
- Carter: Ol' dumbshit
- Reagan: Ol' "Best ever"
- Bush 41: Ol' "Message: I care"
- Clinton: (tie) Ol' "Horniest horny toad that ever hornied" and Ol' "I'll sleep with anything"
- Bush 43: Ol' "Why is everything always my fault"

And of course, Obama has yet to be assigned a nickname.

Its probably tablets in general. Back in the late 90's IBM tried to sell a tablet version of the ThinkPads I did some software work on.

It was a (relatively) powerful and capable machine for its era, but it had all the same input problems current tablets do.

As a laptop substitute they're maddening. Soft keyboards sucked then, they suck now. An emulated mouse is still NOT a mouse. Apps not designed specifically for them, might as well have been written by the Spanish Inquisition.

257 Wow TPH, that is some epic failure there. At least at A-kon all the lines for registration were in the AC. Still on Thursday night for pre-reg I think I spent over two hours in line.

And luckily the door policy at A-kon was a bit more porous. Only way I got into Dealers Room on Sunday with time leftover to get to car was because I did a ninja trick. They had a line for it two hours before opening time. Already was in the area outside Dealers Room because just left Artist Alley. So asked a staffer where end of line was for Dealers Room. Nodded and walked down the line where they said the end was supposed to be. I ran into another staffer and asked where the end was. They told me to exit out the doors and re-enter hotel to find the end. I merely nodded and started to walk back up the line because that was where the doors were. Instead of using the doors I merely blended into the cleared line and walked into Dealers Room while showing my badge.

Oh fuck, I looked at that list of stupid college classes and saw the one at Belmont that makes every one of these lists. It is one of about 35 possible "first year seminars" that Belmont freshman have to take in their first semester and they are only one credit courses. They are small seminars of 10-12 students and they are intended mostly as discussion sessions to get kids to open up on subjects that are new to them. My son took one on hip-hop music, which he has literally never listened to (he is a music major) and loved it. I can't speak to the other classes on the list, but Belmont really gets a bad rap on this. It is a very conservative Christian college.

Just had to get that off my chest. You may now return to your regular ONT revelry.

274 Sometimes I wonder how I fell into the void of this blog. Then I see dog and cat videos and I am fulfilled again.

I think it is boo-ee in the South. I seem to recall one brother yapping about it---the brother I once threw up the stairs as we were sent to our rooms after fighting over the tv channel (I sort of propelled him upward like a catapult---hey, on kitty thread, why do they call them catspults?). I patiently explained to parents, later, as brother screamed and then I got into trouble...the big wuss as he was not hurt...that this was going on in my head as a physics experiment. Brother moved upward due to:

A depends on its initial velocity.
B depends on the mass of the ball.
C is 9.8 m/s2
D depends on how high you throw it.
E is 0 m/s2

They knew this was not true as I cannot find "x" in the best of times.

My biggest question is why there is a tiger in the kitchen?

By the By, I spent all last summer getting the yard into at least decent enough shape (it's weedy as hell, but at least I've got 90%+ ground coverage, which is a huge improvement.)

And those little beasts put a hole in, and then after they left that they sat in other parts of the yard and kill them too.

The Battling Boys of Benghazi

( Author unknown )

We're the Battling Boys of Benghazi,

no fame, no glory, no paparazzi.

Just a fiery death in a blazing hell,

defending the country we loved so well.

It wasn't our job, but we answered the call,

fought to the consulate, and scaled the wall.

We pulled twenty countrymen from the jaws of fate,

led them to safety, and stood at the gate.

Just the two of us, and foes by the score,

but we stood fast, to bar the door.

Three calls for reinforcement, but all were denied,

so we fought and we fought, and we fought till we died.

We gave our all for our Uncle Sam,

but Barack Obama didn't give a damn.

Just two dead SEAL's, who carried the load,

no thanks to us--we were just "bumps in the road."

419 Several CAP (Center for American Progress) insiders, who asked to speak off the record, told me that when Podesta left, there was a fear that contributions would dry up. Raising money had always been important, they said, but Tanden ratcheted up the efforts to openly court donors, which has impacted CAPÂ’s work. Staffers were very clearly instructed to check with the think tankÂ’s development team before writing anything that might upset contributors, I was told.

425 It just seems like an odd place for hook-ups. It is a state park that people ride horses through regularly. But, for a few months now I have seen a couple different things that make me suspect. I see a couple cars parked by the side of the road and then guys getting back in them and driving off and they are better dressed than one would usually be for being in the forest. Or I have seen one car parked and another car cruise by it and park further up and a guy get out and walk into the forest by the other car. Wish I could think of a cleaner scenario for their actions since this is just up the road from the elementary school and kids walk home by there every day.

elizabethe, thanks I'll bookmark that and maybe try some. Though I am not sure how predator pee would effect my beagle.

I am thinking about making my beagle smell coffee beans or something before going out to go pee so he doesn't get distracted. The problem is he has to go out on a leash because even though my yard is fenced he can flatten himself and squeeze through the small space at the bottom of the fence. So, it annoys me to be dragged across the yard chasing bunny scent.

alexthechick, the drug deals happen in the parking lot next to the Dairy Queen right out in the open. Since marijuana is legal here now apparently that means everything else goes drug-wise too.

I don't care if men want to be with each other, but I do think that the type of men who meet clandestinely in the woods to give each other blow jobs might not be the most savory of individuals. Especially in this day and age and in this area, it's not like you have to hide your gay lifestyle around these parts. But, I guess it is some sort of thrill for some to do it in the bushes.

I am debating live trapping them and re-locating to
the nearby forest. But the nearby forest scares me a bit because I keep seeing well dressed men stroll out of the bushes and go to separate cars and drive off from there. I am pretty sure it is a new place for men to get a little male on male action.

Ah, a Democrat hotspot.

We took our dogs to a park once that featured a number of cars with lone male occupants. I (stupidly) asked the ranger what was up. He pointed to the rest room nearby, and gave me a knowing look. Ah.

I'm sure it's bad. At the same time, reminds me of some of the anti-drug programs of the 1970s. I'd swear some of them were designed by schizophrenics.

There was one anti-drug campaign in particular that I literally could not believe, and I was just 12 years old when I heard of it. It's tagline was, I kid you not:

"It's so good, don't even do it once."

590 I think what killed the NBA was that Pacers / Pistons game. Sure there were some bad apples, but most of the players retained some class.

Even after Larry Bird, for the melanin-deficient amongst us, we could still cheer for Jordan, Barkley, Johnson, Olajuwon and Shaq. They were decent, real people.

That Pacers / Pistons brawl was a thugfest and it drove off a lot of fans who can't stomach thuggery - which sucked if you were living in a city which had nothing to do with it, which was most other cities.

I started following GG since he's the one who blew this thing wide open and he's risking his career on this. Surprisingly though he's getting some support from fellow lefties like David Corn and even Michael Moore

668 Transcript of Amanda Knox's handwritten statement to police on the evening of November 6, the day she was arrested: This is very strange, I know, but really what happened is as confusing to me as it is to everyone else. I have been told there is hard evidence saying that I was at the place of the murder of my friend when it happened. This, I want to confirm, is something that to me, if asked a few days ago, would be impossible. I know that Raffaele has placed evidence against me, saying that I was not with him on the night of Meredith's murder, but let me tell you this. In my mind there are things I remember and things that are confused. My account of this story goes as follows, despite the evidence stacked against me: On Thursday November 1 I saw Meredith the last time at my house when she left around 3 or 4 in the afternoon. Raffaele was with me at the time. We, Raffaele and I, stayed at my house for a little while longer and around 5 in the evening we left to watch the movie Amelie at his house. After the movie I received a message from Patrik [sic], for whom I work at the pub "Le Chic". He told me in this message that it wasn't necessary for me to come into work for the evening because there was no one at my work. Now I remember to have also replied with the message: "See you later. Have a good evening!" and this for me does not mean that I wanted to meet him immediately. In particular because I said: "Good evening!" What happened after I know does not match up with what Raffaele was saying, but this is what I remember. I told Raffaele that I didn't have to work and that I could remain at home for the evening. After that I believe we relaxed in his room together, perhaps I checked my email. Perhaps I read or studied or perhaps I made love to Raffaele. In fact, I think I did make love with him. However, I admit that this period of time is rather strange because I am not quite sure. I smoked marijuana with him and I might even have fallen asleep. These things I am not sure about and I know they are important to the case and to help myself, but in reality, I don't think I did much. One thing I do remember is that I took a shower with Raffaele and this might explain how we passed the time. In truth, I do not remember exactly what day it was, but I do remember that we had a shower and we washed ourselves for a long time. He cleaned my ears, he dried and combed my hair. One of the things I am sure that definitely happened the night on which Meredith was murdered was that Raffaele and I ate fairly late, I think around 11 in the evening, although I can't be sure because I didn't look at the clock. After dinner I noticed there was blood on Raffaele's hand, but I was under the impression that it was blood from the fish. After we ate Raffaele washed the dishes but the pipes under his sink broke and water flooded the floor. But because he didn't have a mop I said we could clean it up tomorrow because we (Meredith, Laura, Filomena and I) have a mop at home. I remember it was quite late because we were both very tired (though I can't say the time). The next thing I remember was waking up the morning of Friday November 2nd around 10am and I took a plastic bag to take back my dirty cloths to go back to my house. It was then that I arrived home alone that I found the door to my house was wide open and this all began. In regards to this "confession" that I made last night, I want to make clear that I'm very doubtful of the verity of my statements because they were made under the pressures of stress, shock and extreme exhaustion. Not only was I told I would be arrested and put in jail for 30 years, but I was also hit in the head when I didn't remember a fact correctly. I understand that the police are under a lot of stress, so I understand the treatment I received. However, it was under this pressure and after many hours of confusion that my mind came up with these answers. In my mind I saw Patrik in flashes of blurred images. I saw him near the basketball court. I saw him at my front door. I saw myself cowering in the kitchen with my hands over my ears because in my head I could hear Meredith screaming. But I've said this many times so as to make myself clear: these things seem unreal to me, like a dream, and I am unsure if they are real things that happened or are just dreams my head has made to try to answer the questions in my head and the questions I am being asked. But the truth is, I am unsure about the truth and here's why: 1. The police have told me that they have hard evidence that places me at the house, my house, at the time of Meredith's murder. I don't know what proof they are talking about, but if this is true, it means I am very confused and my dreams must be real. 2. My boyfriend has claimed that I have said things that I know are not true. I KNOW I told him I didn't have to work that night. I remember that moment very clearly. I also NEVER asked him to lie for me. This is absolutely a lie. What I don't understand is why Raffaele, who has always been so caring and gentle with me, would lie about this. What does he have to hide? I don't think he killed Meredith, but I do think he is scared, like me. He walked into a situation that he has never had to be in, and perhaps he is trying to find a way out by disassociating himself with me. Honestly, I understand because this is a very scary situation. I also know that the police don't believe things of me that I know I can explain, such as: 1. I know the police are confused as to why it took me so long to call someone after I found the door to my house open and blood in the bathroom. The truth is, I wasn't sure what to think, but I definitely didn't think the worst, that someone was murdered. I thought a lot of things, mainly that perhaps someone got hurt and left quickly to take care of it. I also thought that maybe one of my roommates was having menstral [sic] problems and hadn't cleaned up. Perhaps I was in shock, but at the time I didn't know what to think and that's the truth. That is why I talked to Raffaele about it in the morning, because I was worried and wanted advice. 2. I also know that the fact that I can't fully recall the events that I claim took place at Raffaele's home during the time that Meredith was murdered is incriminating. And I stand by my statements that I made last night about events that could have taken place in my home with Patrik, but I want to make very clear that these events seem more unreal to me that what I said before, that I stayed at Raffaele's house. 3. I'm very confused at this time. My head is full of contrasting ideas and I know I can be frustrating to work with for this reason. But I also want to tell the truth as best I can. Everything I have said in regards to my involvement in Meredith's death, even though it is contrasting, are the best truth that I have been able to think. [illegible section] I'm trying, I really am, because I'm scared for myself. I know I didn't kill Meredith. That's all I know for sure. In these flashbacks that I'm having, I see Patrik as the murderer, but the way the truth feels in my mind, there is no way for me to have known because I don't remember FOR SURE if I was at my house that night. The questions that need answering, at least for how I'm thinking are: 1. Why did Raffaele lie? (or for you) Did Raffaele lie? 2. Why did I think of Patrik? 3. Is the evidence proving my pressance [sic] at the time and place of the crime reliable? If so, what does this say about my memory? Is it reliable? 4. Is there any other evidence condemning Patrik or any other person? 3. Who is the REAL murder [sic]? This is particularly important because I don't feel I can be used as condemning testimone [sic] in this instance. I have a clearer mind that I've had before, but I'm still missing parts, which I know is bad for me. But this is the truth and this is what I'm thinking at this time. Please don't yell at me because it only makes me more confused, which doesn't help anyone. I understand how serious this situation is, and as such, I want to give you this information as soon and as clearly as possible. If there are still parts that don't make sense, please ask me. I'm doing the best I can, just like you are. Please believe me at least in that, although I understand if you don't. All I know is that I didn't kill Meredith, and so I have nothing but lies to be afraid of.

Seem to understand the differences between the different types - leaning toward a rifle or a shot gun - which is where it seems to get really confusing.

Posted by: qdpsteve at June 09, 2013 12:11 AM (7B7jB) Greenwald is just as much as a believer in the glorious leftist utopia that we must be forced to go to, as any other Proggie. The difference is that he is one of the few who believe that the path to that utopia ought to be at least somewhat consistent with the desired utopia itself.

Without knowing your age, size, hand strenght.... and you are thinking long gun not hand gun , a few thoughts shotguns have alot of recoil, pump shotguns you got to be careful with cuz you can short stroke them and it will go click and not bang. mindset is most important, if you pull a gun on someone and they advance tword you, you have to shoot them until they stop. They are advancing tword you to disarm you, and are a mental defect so shoot them . If you are not concerned about bullets boing through walls that will hurt inncents an AR15 with a 16 inch barrel will keep you safe. so will a revolver, it really depends on you. my wife who is in her early 40's can run a full size semi-auto pistol so it depends did that help? ask more ?? buying a gun is a process

787 i have no interest in arias and really know nothing about her case other than she murdered her boyfriend. my interest in Knox is mostly b/c i thought she was clearly guilty looking but then I saw a lot of Americans saying she was innocent including Ace, and many of them are nuts about her being innocent (i'm not including ace in that). so i just looked at it some more and it appears Knox's family launched an effective pr campaign in america within our media. our media never presents the prosecution claims accurately if at all.

Mr. Alamogordo got another call today from our friendly local hardware store that also sells ammo and boom sticks. He went and picked up 500 .22 LRs, and about 2 weeks ago I ran to that store after another call and picked up about 600 .22LRs, so I can finally go plinking again.

Nice to live in a small town where they put you on a call list when they get a shipment in.

797 Jake: Thanks for the insight / comments. Have the name of a good NRA instructor. That's first on list before even walking into a store. What you said about recoil with shotguns is on my mind. Have a niece here that can handle one like Tobacco Road mentioned above with the pistol grip on it. But she's a lot taller than I am and younger. I'm 5.3 - 135 lbs. - half way to 114 years old. Good hands, strong back. At least so far. Not looking to conceal carry with first expenditure. But if I were, I REALLY like the Springfield Armory 1911 - same guy who has the Mossburg has a beautiful one of those that fits my hands loverly, but I've never fired it. Like the idea of mags for the pistols vs the reloaders for revolvers so didn't spent much time looking at them. Will continue this next comment or you'll think I went to bed.

If she does anything, it will be a pron because that is where the big money is these days. One of the chicks on one of those "teen mom" shows just picked up 3/4 million for taking it up the dumper in one of those. I could see Knox getting that kind of payday for taking one in the keister on tape. Of course, once you do anal, there is no where else to go, so her pron career will be over rather quick.

829 Jake and TR: The guy who showed me the 1911 had me holstered up and practicing draws in his living room. His wife was amazed I was so taken with it. Didn't think it was too heavy, a bit awkward being I'm so short though he was mightily trying to figure a solution for that. Anyway, I wouldn't mind having one around the house vs. carrying it, but I don't think I want a handgun as a first gun. Ammo availability is on my mind when looking at this, too. Also, I can see myself liking a rifle more than a handgun. I just keep reading that shotguns are good for home defense, but get confused when it comes to types of shells.

OK I will change the subject a little here from the Knocks chick.

Looking forward to my anniversary trip with the Mr. this year. We are heading out to AZ last week of June to Flagstaff area for fishing and camping and a Blues and Brews Festival on the 28th.

Fishing and camping before the fest, and hopefully some really good tunes at the fest. Tommy Castro and the Painkillers will be there, and I've seen his band before and they are really fun. Except he doesn't have the sax guy anymore, so that is sad.

But I sure hope catching a few lunker fish will make up for no sax in Tommy's band anymore.

846 Hey everybody, been a long time since I've been around here, but I have a request or at least something to pass on.
Some of you might know I have a little blog Word Around the Net - every once in a while someone links it here, particularly in the ONT for my "Common Knowledge" posts.
Well there was a problem with my Google account when they changed over to Google Apps this year, and I couldn't log on to renew my blog domain. So its gone dead; if you go to www.wordaroundthenet.com now you get one of those annoying placeholder pages.
Hopefully in about 15 days I'll be able to pick it up again and some bastard at a domain site won't buy it and expect me to pay $150,000 to buy it back. But until then, my blog has basically disappeared. I tried to warn people it might happen, but since the blog is gone, there's nothing to read on it any more.
So I set up my old stored wordpress blog account for my business to echo the blog, I haven't posted on it for a bit because of other stuff going on but its still out there.
I just wanted people to know its still out there and maybe spread the word a bit to the 8 or so people who actually read it.

Hello @normmacdonald. I really think you should clean up your email inbox. You have 328 unread emails. I can delete them if you'd like.

@AndrewLawton You have nothing to worry about. You're in Canada. We don't have the slightest fear of Canada.

@SeeTac7 Santa isn't real. I'm sorry. It's actually a guy named Carlos and his 36 cousins. They break in to your house and leave gifts

I hate to break it to you, but your firewall is no match for me. I'm defriending people on your facebook account right now. -PRISM

Sorry everyone. Mr @hughhewitt is busy for the rest of the night. A "Murder, She Wrote" marathon is on and he's glued to Netflix.

Hi @seanhannity. It looks like you have a great show lined for Monday. I read the transcripts off your computer. Thanks.

906 Mignini was the prosecutor of Knox in the first two trials. He is well respected in Italy and also part of their anti-mafia lawyers. guittari was the "super-cop" that lead the investigation in the Monster of Florence serial murder case. doug preston, the american writer, likes to conflate the two on purpose, to get publicity for his MOF book that has a different theory about who the serial killer is, differnet from that of the police.

chemjeff,

I have a kindle, and have gotten to the point where I am ordering old books on it, because I have a problem with reading. They gave me a "speed reading" course when I was very young, and go through the books way too fast to keep ordering the newest ones on the market, and I am now in the slow time for work so don't have the budget.

It's amazing to go back and reread some of the classics from my youth (which was way before yours I am sure)

But I sure have been enjoying them once again.

I can reread books about 5 times before I get so tired I know every word. so I just wait about 5 - 10 years, and then they are fun again.

919 That Shia LeBeouf anecdote on sidebar reminds me of the time I got one of my phone conversations played to my face. This was thanks to my father who, it turned out, had surreptitiously set up a tape recorder on our house line. (His excuse was roughly: I pay the bills, I have the right, whether or not it's technically illegal). He played a talk I had with my mom for a little while and then suddenly stabbed the pause button. "See, see where you said that? That means you MUST have blah blah blahed....." To which I replied: "It could have meant that, or it could have meant this other thing, and it also could have meant a third thing, and it happens to have been the third thing and I know that BECAUSE I WAS THE ONE THAT SAID IT." Fuckin' NPD case he was, too. I swear, if some asshole tells me that I hate Obama because I'm racist I'll have to say no, it's because I have daddy issues.

Actually I was going to suggest things that would keep your route away from me. Not because I'm anti-social, which I am, but because there's some cool stuff to see a little off the beaten path around here.

Fer' instance, if you have the time and don't mind some light hiking, the "Land of Fire and Ice" off NM 53 is a nice distraction. Visit a volcano and ice cave within a short walk of each other.

932 915 SMOD fans, Nice comet catastrophe round up in name. Some blogger guy, no idea. Posted by: Beagle at June 09, 2013 01:34 AM (sOtz/) I linked an article here a couple of weeks ago that said that new evidence had been discovered supporting the impact theory. I think they're called microspherules or something like that. 12,800 years ago the Earth was emerging from the last Ice Age. The climate was warming and the glaciers were rapidly melting. Then something happened that suddenly and dramatically cooled the climate, and the glaciers hung on for another 1300 years.

Posted by: rickl at June 08, 2013 09:44 PM (sdi6R)

933 Beagle, it's from 2009. I remember reading about the Clovis Comet around then...

A co-worker of mine from the 1990s was related to Tom Dillehay, or at least was an admirer of his (he changed his last name to "Dillehay" when I was there - no, srsly, he did).

The real Dillehay was responsible for overthrowing the "Clovis Theory" on how the New World - which, for humans, really was a new world - was first populated. He had found archaeological evidence for human settlements in the early 10000s BC (Monte Verde), where Clovis material only existed in 13500 BC and later.

A big comet blasting everything in North America *would* explain the crippling of North American populations, and maybe even their emptying-out; whilst in South America there seems to be more genetic diversity and a longer chain of evidence for continuous settlement.

Mr. is not allowed to shoot the quails nor bunnies, at least until I find a good recipe for the bunnies.

950 We have bunnies that come in the yard, as well as quail. I have stopped planting the, delicious to rabbits I guess, lilies, and now I leave the peelings of cukes and taters out for them.

We used to have bunnies that would eat miniature rosebushes down to the ground. Put chicken wire around them. The bunnies kept the plants trimmed neatly, nothing outside the wire.

Posted by: boulder t'hobo at June 09, 2013 01:45 AM (QTHTd) I didn't know that. That's very interesting. I remember reading years ago that the Indians of eastern Canada have a legend that one day the sky caught on fire, and the only people who survived were those who jumped into rivers and lakes until it passed. When they emerged they found widespread devastation.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing that.

Clovis never made sense when I was in college. The primitive Clovis found in mass quantities in New England and one advanced point site in Alaska. Everything was backwards but nobody wanted to say 'Europeans' got here first.

The Clovis Impact Theory is getting stronger.

Search: "Firestone Younger Dryas Impact"

Survived the first round of critics and the physical evidence keeps getting stronger.

Blanco,

Sound like some good things to do. I would like to see fire and ice in that close of proximity, because sometimes Mr. gets worried about all this gorebull warming stuff. He was raised unfortunately with a (lovely tho) hippy mom and his sis is very very liberal, and sometimes they encourage him in "feeling" too much.

I will email you, if you aren't interested in a mini-moron meetup, that's cool too. I am usually not too "social" either. I will email you for maybe some more interesting things to do on the way.

I think I will actually get about 10 days off total, and Mr. too, and that's not happened for many a year for our vacation schedules. Usually it's he's working or I am on (working) vacation.

970 Beagle: The "Across Atlantic Ice" theory? I looked into it. I wasn't impressed.

The Amerindian (pre-Navajo) genetic signals are all heavily northeast Asian. The main exception is the X2 mitochondrion - and this one is Eurasian, not European. (There's a north African / European X1 mitochondrion, but it didn't reach the Americas.)

So X2 probably tagged along with the other Siberian tribes, via Alaska.

Plus, "Across Atlantic Ice" has the disadvantage of being really hard to test. Maybe impossible. And if it's not testable it's not science.

Yes, it started this way at my house.

So I type to you all tonight from my (WTF) Bunny Farm.

I grew up in MN, and a lot of people up there (those skandis don't ya know) really believe the Vikings were there way before Columbus. They take it as a "point of pride" for some reason.

Now, I know there were huge glaciers that overran the land, and I can't believe the skandis wouldn't have stayed around, because that is what their homeland was like, wasn't it?

so, if they could handle that DAMNED cold, why didn't they stay?

Posted by: alamogordo at June 08, 2013 10:26 PM (HUTO5)

1012 a hypothesis:

Somewhere in America is an institution. At that institution there are a number of people that have been committed, and probably most of them are there voluntarily.

The inmates at the institution have access to the web. Either there is a whacked-out doctor or a nurse/orderly of some type who directs some of the psychotics to the ONT. The reasons could be many -- among them are:

it is really therapeutic / amusing / outright funny / harmless, so who gives a shit / at least it will keep the asshole busy so he won't bug me for a while / or the perennial favorite: "fuck those scumbags on the ONT, anyway, cuz they deserve it."

The psychotics are told what a "conservative" is supposed to be, or how a "conservative" is supposed to think, but that is of little predictive power, because, after all, they are psychotic. So, the inmates post on the ONT for a while. And at a particular time each night the orderlies return them to their rooms so they drop off the thread. Each psychotic will post for a period of some months and then fade away.

Eventually a new psychotic will appear, and repeat virtually identical behavior for a similar period of time and then fade away like the predecessors.

-- end hypothesis.

1016 so, if they could handle that DAMNED cold, why didn't they stay?

Maybe because smallpox from the Conquistadores hadn't yet arrived to spread across the Americas and wipe out 90% of the indigenous population? The Vikings would have run up against some serious competition for resources. While we know the Vikings didn't exactly run away from a good fight, event they would have had their limits.

Of course, this is all speculation on my part.

1027 The Nook HD+ is a good buy right now. Yes, it is not straight Android but it comes a lot closer that the Amazon tablets. They recently opened it up to allow access to the Google Play store and Chrome became the default web browser. Plus, major plus, it has a microSD slot that can be used to boot any OS you like. I was running the latest Cyanogen Android release for a while but since they opened it up there hasn't been much reason.

I suspect they'll do one more firmware release before pulling the plug on support that completely opens it up and lets people do whatever they want, without booting from the microSD slot and thus having all of that 64 GB available for stuff. (My boot setup is off a 64 GB SanDisk microSDXC card. Rakuten has a deal this weekend to get it for under $40.) Potentially the slot can store a lot more but cards over 64 GB are still very pricey.

It doesn't have some of the features of more general tablets, such as front or rear cameras, but the screen resolution (1920x1200) is really nice at the current price. There is no telling how far down the price might go before they run out. They're $150 for the 16 GB right now, though I recommend spending the additional $30 for the 32 GB model.

I guess that means when Obama said that Congress had been briefed, he accidentally revealed that the Government is now in possession of time-travel technology. Otherwise, he would not be able to remember an event that had not happened yet.

Or he's just a shitheel lying scumbag, either one is equally plausible.

Just be patient.

The Smithsonian Institute will be conducting a study on the Brain Matter of people who live in Minnesota...(thank you ACE spell check) to try and define why these people are by and large "BUTT FUCK CRAZY!!!!"

The technical paper should be out in the August issue of JAMMA!

1033 Yes, accents are wonderful. In South Baltimore they always called the sink the "zink" . I had a friend tell me once that was because in the past sinks were made of zink. West Virginia had some good ones too. "You kids go on up and play in the "crick" ..which meant creek". I am told that in some liberal, hopey , changey Chicago political circles that "Transparent" is pronounced as "Audit".

Nope, no '24' entry in Bruce McGill's IMDB listing. Which is kind of surprising considering how other stuff of a similar nature he's done.

Well, that is true Blanco,

the people that were here were pretty hard core. I guess I didn't really think that through.

Yes, I grew up in northern MN, and I always thought it was odd that our football team was named the Vikings.

I led a "sheltered" life, away from the Cities ( as they are called, in plural, because there were only 2, and they were also called "twin", I don't know to this day why, because when I lived in St Paul for a few years they were no way, no how twins, but I digress)

I never understood why the Vikings were our mascot, team name, whatever.

Northern MN is mostly immigrants from Italy, Finland, Germany ( but those are mostly southern, for farming), Serbia, skandinavian countries. Then, I got out and "aboot" in the state, and found out there are a lot of people that said hogwash about Columbus.

Then, I moved to El Paso TX, and after that to New Mexico.

And then I "learned" that the Pilgrims were "hogwash", and the first Thanksgiving was in El Paso, way before the Pilgrims.

It's interesting to learn how different areas of the country believe their area is the first to discover a new original Thanksgiving.

What I have LOVED about it all, is that every area in which I have lived has always believed there is a reason for Thanksgiving in this country.

Tom in Korea,

I was blabbling on earlier about how I have been rereading classics, but I did fit in there your book.

And I am definitely ordering several hard copies for my nephews here close by, and for other children I know a little further away.

It is a great book, and I will be sending them to all the kids I know, and keeping a couple in reserve for when the others can read in a few years.
