— Gabriel Malor Happy Friday.
The House will vote to increase borrowing authority for National Flood Insurance Program by $9.7 billion this morning, the first of two planned votes for "Sandy relief." A vote for another $51 billion is supposed to come before January 15, with that version apparently including most or all of the Senate's pork.
A first grader in Maryland was suspended for making a gun gesture with a finger, pointing it at a classmate, and saying "pow." I'm sure he's learned an important lesson about educators, or something.

I swear, even the SF/Fantasy is a womenÂ’s book. It is getting hard for a male to find a decent new book. Looking through the SF/Fantasy choices yesterday I came to the conclusion that SF/Fantasy was nothing more than soft vampire porn for women. What I call bodice rippers with fangs. Hey publishers, you are making a self-completing cycle. You claim that women buy most of the books, but when you only market to women how do suppose men are going to buy?
And thatÂ’s it for Friday, January 04, 2013.

Another BS program that was billed as help for the average man when in fact it was an outright gift to real estate developers and cronies. It has really led to the destruction of the beach culture of the late 50s and 60s.
Before passage of that program Myrtle Beach had about 10,000 permanent residents. It is now a metro area with > 500,000 and it is overdeveloped.
All this shit did was put the tax payer hock to pay for storm damage in the billions when a hurricane comes through.

My Kroger supermarket has a section of gourmet cookware, kitchen gadgets, china and such. They always have a couple displays with entertainment ideas set around a theme.
So yesterday I go in and see a roasting pan, frying pan, some plates and glasses and placemats, and a cookbook:
"Fifty Shades of Chicken."
I am not making this up.

As for the flood insurance, if you look at some of the NJ areas where "homes" were destroyed what you really see is summer beach shacks that people insist on living in year round. Additionally, some of them were exactly at sea level with no sea wall to keep back a storm surge. It was not IF they would be flooded, it was WHEN.

I think all three branches of government should be required to take a basic civics lesson at the beginning of each year, and take a public test.
Maybe then they would remember how checks and balances work; that they work for the people, oh yeah... and that they live in the f...ing United States of AMERICA.

The town I grew up in had an area that would flood the houses yearly, at least. You could see that it was the lowest point around and after a heavy rain and because of the hardscape that was put in to build the area, the water has got to go somewhere, and this area was that somewhere. Eventually they got tired of reconstructing the area to try and keep it from flooding and turned it into a park/natural area.

Hey publishers, you are making a self-completing cycle. You claim that women buy most of the books, but when you only market to women how do suppose men are going to buy?
You could always buy OSPÂ’s book, Vic. Or mine (hint, hint).
Anyway, thanks for the news, Gabe and Vic. TodayÂ’s movie story is actually a small history lesson, and concerns a man who called himself Eadweard Muybridge, but who was born Edward Muggeridge in England in 1830.
He discovered photography in his early ‘30s, ending up in California by 1866 and making a name for himself as a photographer of Yosemite Valley. Among his customers was the railroad magnate Leland Stanford, who, noting Muybridge’s talent for invention, asked him to help settle a bet: when a horse ran, did it ever have all four feet on the ground?
Muybridge devoted two years of his life to settling the question, finally arranging a series of cameras along a racetrack, each cameraÂ’s shutter triggered when the horse broke through a thin string. And Stanford won the bet; yes, a horse did have all four legs briefly off the ground as it ran.*
So Muybridge now had “a simple record of time and space, laid out in still pictures taken at what we might call split-second intervals,” in the words of film historian David Thomson. But what could he do with them? As it turned out, he could invent a sort of bastard father to the movies; a device called a zoopraxiscope. You’ve seen them; imagine a series of pictures pasted inside a cylinder, with little slots on the outside for you to look through. Spin the cylinder, and the pictures move.
Muybridge was fascinated by what he’d done, and continued photographing animals in motion. In the 1880s, he progressed to people, gaining himself a position at the University of Pennsylvania and using a camera that was able to record up to 24 sequential pictures in a second. He shot anything that interested him – dogs walking, a horse and carriage, juggling acts, fencers in combat – but especially nude studies, showing the movement of skin and muscle.
Muybridge wasnÂ’t the father of movies; the invention has no one father. But he was one of the many John the Baptists preparing the way.
At http://tinyurl.com/3dd8rnw, you can see the Stanford horse pictures. A visit to http://tinyurl.com/afufswh will show you some of Muybridge’s “Animal Locomotion” studies.
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.
*incidentally, Stanford had promised to share his winnings with Muybridge. He didnÂ’t.

I don't know whether Bachmann voted or not, but voting "present" or declining to vote would have helped Boehner. He only needed a majority of votes cast for a Speaker. Which means that every time someone voted present or declined to vote, they reduced the total number of votes that he would have to receive.
He didn't have to get 218 votes, as has been erroneously reported almost everywhere. He had to get somewhat less because of absent members, members voting present, and members declining to vote. He had about a 20-vote cushion.

I know I keep flogging (heh) this series but try the Iron Druid series by Kevin Hearne. It's urban fantasy to the extent that it's set in modern times and is about the last remaining druid but it's definitely not soft core porn. Don't get me wrong, there's sex in the books, particularly the first one, but it's of the fade to black type. Quick, fun reads with a very long term story arc that's just starting to become the main focus.
I read a lot, I mean a lot, of YA crap. It is nearly impossible to find anything that has a male protagonist. You want to know why teen boys don't read? Other than classic sci fi, there's nothing out there for them to read.

I see two rich California dudes have decided to get married (George Lucas and Phi Jackson). Instead of thinking "oh isn't that nice" my first thought was this must be some way to pay less in taxes or something. The last four years have turned me cynical.

When Harold Ford wanted to challenge Nancy Pelosi for the Speakership, he was told to sit down and shut up. He is no longer in Congress.
When Paul Wellstone was killed in a plane crash, the popular Alan Page, former NFL star and Minnesota Supreme court justice offered to run in his place. Minnesota dems said "No" and ran fossilized Walter Mondale, who lost.
When the DNC was in disarray after Gore's loss in 2001, former mayor of Atlanta tried for DNC Chairman. Bill Clinton brought in retread Terry McAuliffe who got the job.
When Carl McCall was running for governor of New York, Terry McAuliffe refused to give him his rightful share of DNC campaign money or support, instead directing it all to Florida in an ill-considered effort to defeat Jeb Bush.
ALL of these men could have had prominent roles in the leadership of the democrat party. Every single one was not only denied the chance to try, but publicly humiliated in the process.
All were black candidates and the message seems to be that as long as you are on the plantation and don't want to run things, we will happily take your votes. But don't get too uppity, as the white democrats are going to run things.
So shut up, Jordan, you don't know what you are talking about.

According to Breitbart's report, nine Republicans voted against Boner. Bachmann was not one of them.
Why should anyone work to "marginalize" her? She seems more than capable of doing it on her own.
In other words, she's a typical "Republican," full of lofty words that signify nothing.

Their tool today is confiscatory taxation and onerous regulation that for all intents and purposes shackles us to the Government.
The GOP has nothing to offer black people per-se as we do not make direct racial or ethnic overtures to any race, creed or color of people as the Democrats do.
Witness Joe Bidens quip of "they're gonna put y'all in chains!"
How so?
The GOP is the party of individual liberty.
We want you to keep more of your money - That's economic freedom
We want parents to have school choice - That's educational freedom.
We want to eliminate onerous regulation - That's entrepreneruial freedom
on and on.
The Democrat party is the party of genocide(abortion)
The Democrat party is the party of slavery(Taxation)
The Democrat Party is the party of racism(Affirmative Action)
The Democrat party in every Orwellian word they utter and in every Marxist deed they attempt to implement are enemies of not only this country but freedom loving people everywhere.
Tasxes=Revenues leads to slavery
Social Programs=Great Society leads to dependence.
We must fight them with every fiber of out being!

Aha! Another one of those "symbolic" victories our Republican Underlords have become so good at!
It's about time we start getting real, and drop all the symbolism, shiny stuff and squirrels. If Bachmann -- or anyone else -- really opposed weepy eunuch Boner, they should have friggin' said so.
I won't say politics as usual has gotten us into the mess we are currently doing nothing about, but it hasn't hurt Choom Boy at all. When even a pansy-ass sniveler like the Traitor-in-Chief can walk over the so-called opposition in Congress with impunity, something is horribly wrong?

They are pretty good. However, as often happens with a book series, the last couple of books have been weaker. This is usually a function of book contracts that force an author to churn out the books quickly to maximize profits.
All in all, Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden novels are much better and they keep getting better.

The rules for electing the SOH are different from electing a politician in a general election.
The House elects its Speaker when one candidate has the votes of a majority of the entire membership of the House (at least 218 Members).
Note someone said it was 214 this time so some positions must be vacant. Unlike a general election the SOH must get a minimum number of votes to be elected. So a "non-vote" is technically the same as a no vote.
But since she changed her vote to yes, then the point is moot anyway.

Okay, I get it. You see the Democrats as the party of Free Shit, and the Republicans as the party of Good Shit.
Still so for the Democrats.
This may once have been true when it comes to the GOP. Sure as hell isn't now. It's the party of talktalktalktalk and absolutely no action.
It may not be too late to get off the Boner/Poppin' Fresh Yakety-yak Train, but it will take someone standing up and showing the way. I don't see anyone with the resolve to do that.

He was re-elected Speaker of the House on 2013 January 3 at the beginning of the 113th Congress with 220 votes.
His election was the narrowest margin for any Speaker of the House since Newt Gingrich's 1997 reelection, and only the second time since the Eisenhower administration a Speaker received less than 225 votes.

Jason Whitlock calls Thomas Sowell a “House Negro”.
Which proves that Jason Whitlock is just as stupid as we all already knew he is. I DARE him to try and phrase a sentence or explain a concept or, hell, recite his ABCs as well as Sowell. Sowell would smoke his ass like the worthless piece of guttertrash Whitlock is.

I don't think that is correct. A vote of "present" is still a vote cast and according to House rules a candidate MUST have a majority of the votes cast.
Reference this from the House Rules
In two instances the House agreed to choose and subsequently did choose a Speaker by a plurality of votes but confirmed the choice by majority vote. In 1849 the House had been in session 19 days without being able to elect a Speaker, no candidate having received a majority of the votes cast. The voting was viva voce, each Member responding to the call of the roll by naming the candidate for whom he voted. Finally, after the fifty-ninth ballot, the House adopted a resolution declaring that a Speaker could be elected by a plurality.
If they could be elected like what you said they would not have had to do that.
But, all of this is moot anyway.

Well of COURSE. Because violent video games are against nature or something. I would, of course, invite your typical flower child pagan to watch video of the creative ways that animals -- particularly insects -- have of killing each other, THEN come to me and tell me that nature is a sweet, innocent flower of peace and goodwill.

I was talking to a psychologist friend last night who told me that after 30 years they have discovered that single parenthood or parenthood without a father has very detrimental effects on the child.
I'm going to go out on a limb and assume they got DHHS money for a longitudinal study for this. The name of the study was probably something like, "Dumbfuck stuff we already know but we want to get paid anyway."

Okay, so you're a "sportsman" with around 100 guns but you don't know what a long gun is.
Oh, but you also know your State's (ostensibly CO, though you once claimed to be from Texas, until some real Texans so absolutely embarrassed you that you had to drop that lie) gun laws because "there aren't many."
If it weren't so fun to point an laugh at you, I'd be embarrassed for you.
Bless your heart.

I thought it was pretty well known for at least over a decade that there was a high correlation between an absent father and a whole slough of socially dysfunctional behavior by the offspring.

I've never ready anything by Riordan for "adults" but I've purchased every YA novel he's written, except for the stuff for The 39 Clues (since that's not all him).
I wish he'd get around to writing another one of the Kane Chronicles.

Allen, he wrote some books set in San Antonio. _Big Red Tequilla_ is the first one.
He does a beautiful job of describing S. A. and the area west of there. I was living west of there at the time and not loving it. I actually chilled a bit after reading his descriptions of the place and people.

I'm sure that's correct. The nags hate studies like that because it blows apart their horseshit dogma that men are useless piles of shit, which is more a reflection of the fucking trash heaps with which they voluntarily associated and subsequently got the shit beat out of them. Somehow their magic 8 ball never reads "You made a dumbfuck choice" because they're the really really smart ones.

Yeah, the Republican Study Group firing that guy who suggested that maybe Hollywood isn't capitalism's best buddy was sickening.

Forbes Magazine interviews Reagan appointee on "the next big thing," and how Reagan knew the USSR was imploding even though the CIA didn't think so.

The only thing of higher douche-baggery than calling oneself a "sportman" is starting off a constructive statement with "pro-tip."

Hi Jordan,
I've got an easy request for you. Take a picture of your Kimber .45 and your Lee Enfield 303. Put a little piece of paper that says "Ace of Spades, Jordan, 1/4/2013" next to the guns in the picture. Since you have "all of them" I'm sure this will be easy. You can upload the picture to imgur or twitpic or something.
If you really want to be impressive, you can add a picture of your Harvard student id with the identifying info cropped out. Same deal with the piece of paper next to it.
I'm 100% certain you'll never do this.

Well, they seceded in two areas, they did in fact create a huge new round of socialist programs thanks to a majority Democrat congress and they did draw in the black vote. But poverty is still with us and what racial injustice there was was local pockets and disappearing already in 1965. In doing so they destroyed black family life, education, and the inner city culture. But the liberals to this day think the program was successful and continue to launch new ones just like it.
