Overnight Open Thread (21 Mar 2014)
— CDR M

If Malaysian Flight MH370 is actually down in the southern part of the Indian Ocean, the environmentals there will make any detection or recovery difficult. "Roaring Forties" winds, gyrating ocean currents post Malaysian plane search nightmare. A Marine Speaks

Wow. A Marine speaks frankly. She sure does. Too bad senior leadership will not.

TV Show Theme Songs

I really don't know how you can have a list of top TV Show Theme Songs and not have The A-Team, Magnum P.I., Ren & Stimpy, The Equalizer, and Airwolf on it.

Organic Beauty Routine

Oh Hollywood. They'll try and do anything. Shailene Woodley's organic beauty routine.

Another routine practice for Miss Woodley ‘is [giving] my vagina a little vitamin D,’ she says.

She explains: ‘I was reading an article written by an herbalist I studied about yeast infections and other genital issues. She said there’s nothing better than vitamin D.

‘If you’re feeling depleted, go in the sun for an hour and see how much energy you get. Or, if you live in a place that has heavy winters, when the sun finally comes out, spread your legs and get some sunshine.’

Spider Silk

Scientists train genetically modified E. Coli bacteria to mass produce super strong spider's silk.

Childhood Hair Styles

So morons, which of these childhood hair styles did you sport (or maybe still do!)?

Flying Images

Damn these are pretty sweet low flying aircraft images.
h/t DDR

Just Awesome

A boy and his dog.

LIVs

Study confirms existence of LIVs. Of course, most of us don't need a study for this as election results and folks on Jay Walking pretty much confirmed there were LIVs out there.

Dog Video

Tonight's ONT brought to you by spring is coming:

29 Once again the right is right and the left is wrong. But how many people are going to walk away thinking Drudge is full of shit for having to pay the Obamacare tax? And they know they're wrong now. But they'll continue with the lie because it'll fool some people. People who want to be fooled. I can't imagine why anyone would still be going to the Obama media for news unless they want one put over on them. They're goal is not to inform. They're goal is to trick you. To fool you. At this point they're so exposed, victimhood is voluntary.

A-Team had the best IMO.  In the cartoon movie "Bolt", there's a hamster inside one of those rolling balls that is channel surfing.  He's flipping through the shows until you hear the A-Team theme come on and he stops and watches.  Napoleon Dynamite had it too!

By '95, (when I was 24), my buddy was so vehement about cutting my hair that I let him search through all my moving boxes for scissors. I told him, "If you can find the damn scissors, you can cut my hair." It took him an hour-and-a-half, but he found them. I never looked back and I had then joined "The Adult World".

I never thought it was just the one girl with two personalities, though now that you mention it, it certainly makes sense.

124 Women are often great shooters but canÂ’t run in 50-80 lbs of gear as long, hard, or fast as men. Military training is hard enough on menÂ’s bodies; itÂ’s harder on womenÂ’s. And until women stop menstruating, there will always be an uphill battle for staying level and strong at all times. No one wants to talk about the fact that in the days before a womanÂ’s cycle, she loses half her strength, to say nothing of the emotional ups and downs that affect judgment. From the article "A Marine Speaks". Uhm, really? And this is a serious question. From someone who has obviously never gone through any sort of super rigorous training regimen. Is this "a fact" that has been measured by someone? Who, where? 50%? I mean, I know that I, personally, feel generally shitty physically in the days before my cycle without having any of the discomfort experienced by many women but I have been long chalking it up to the emotional ups and downs which effect judgement that I know happen (for me at least). But 50% of strength, really, really? That seems extraordinary. Perhaps some of our wimmin runners could chime in.

My stepson could tell you loads of stuff about female Marines.  He said during MCT (Marine Combat Training), the portion directly after bootcamp where everyone learns how to be a rifleman, the females kept falling out of runs and slowing everyone down.  No platoon/company was allowed to pass the one in front of it, so it just rippled all the way down, forcing everyone else to slow down as well.


Look, this is not meant to be offensive to women, but there are only a select few of them who could pass the male standards and actually perform as well as or better than some male Marines.  The blogger has a point about the lowered standards.

189 BTW, all 8 seasons of Magnum, PI are on Netflix. It really holds up. Not sure IÂ’d agree with that, but they are fun. We started going through it a couple of days ago (now that we made it through Rockford Files) and are still in the first season. Last night we watched the one where he almost lost the case because he was embarrassed to tell his friends he was guarding a $250,000 horse. IÂ’ve also noticed that women whose behavior, in The Rockford Files, would indicate that they are not who they say there are, is just strange scriptwriting.

192 Did you guys see the news earlier today about the woman who was on a flight, looking out the window, and reported seeing a plane in the water near the Andaman Islands? She was so concerned that she told the flight attendant who dismissed her claims. Then the pilot said they were too high for her to see something like that. This was 13 days ago at 4 pm, the afternoon the plane vanished, while they were still searching in the South China Sea. She was concerned enough that when she got home she filed a report with police.

211 Last night we watched the one where he almost lost the case because he was embarrassed to tell his friends he was guarding a $250,000 horse. I do give it some leeway because it was an 80s show. They didn't have the budget of even a Breaking Bad and certainly had more restrictive censoring rules. It's not a nostalgia thing with me because I was a bit too young for it in the first run. But I think you could do a great set of the top 20 Magnum episodes.

212 Study confirms existence of LIVs. I believe there are different grades of LIVs. At the bottom there are the genuinely stupid and ignorant, way off to the left side of the bell curve. In the middle are people of average intelligence, who don't care about politics, history, or economics. They assume the world has always been pretty much the way it is now, and spend their time on entertainment, sports, and gossip. They may get their "news" from Jon Stewart and their "political analysis" from Rolling Stone. And then at the top are those who have graduate degrees and religiously read the New York Times and listen to NPR. They may be intelligent and highly educated. They may even be brilliant and accomplished in their field. But they are not well-informed.

247 I do give it some leeway because it was an 80s show. They didn't have the budget of even a Breaking Bad and certainly had more restrictive censoring rules. We were wondering about the theme song. My girlfriend was complaining that the theme song in the first season wasn’t the iconic Magnum theme—but the melody for it did show up in the shows! About halfway through the first season now, and a few episodes ago they switched to the more iconic theme song. We thought maybe the premise of the show changed between recording the original theme song and when the first shows were completed, and they couldn’t afford to change it.

Ah yes! The Pop update!



First off, thank you to Peaches and Carol and all the other roonz/ettez who answered the call, the reason they were trying to call me is Pop checked in to the VA because he was falling a lot and got to the point where he wasn't able to stand up. They have transferred him to hospice for short-term rehab. Eldest daughter was going to go over there this afternoon and give him hell for not calling, she's only an hour away. So, to summarize, Pop is OK, he's in short term rehab, hopefully they will be able to fix him up, if not we will have to discuss long-term hospice for him (which he will hate hate hate).

279 Before the concept of the Darwin Awards was even a glimmer in someone's eye, there were people performing acts worthy of being included.

WWI German commerce raider Wolf laid mines all through the Indian and South Pacific Oceans.  And they would break free of their anchor chains and drift.  And sometimes washing ashore.

April 11, 1919.  Exploded while being pulled ashore by three men using a horsedrawn cart at Port Waikato, northwest New Zealand.  All three were killed, along with their horses.

The last known mine to wash ashore was in 2008.  Washed ashore on the western shore of New Zealand near Karamea.  The bomb squad was called in but the mine was no longer thought active.

I didn't say any of that...

... but I did say it was a betrayal of the point of the Snow Queen myth. I did say that the point of the Snow Queen is that a childless-by-choice queen is setting a terrible example for her realm, such that it is infertile and without a future. I did say that it was the Snow Queen who should have been romanced, and by a man. (There should not have been a sister, in this narrative.)

And I did say the movie was not worth watching as a result. I also called it "evil".

I am not retracting any of that.

Posted by: FenelonSpoke at March 21, 2014 11:10 PM (XyM/Y) While boys/men aren't typically the main characters, they're often portrayed well in Disney movies. The princes are often seeking the princesses and are necessary to rescue/save the princess. In "The Little Mermaid", Prince..I think it's EricÂ…is actually instrumental in defeating the villain. In Snow White, all of the men are portrayed well. The Huntsman refuses to do the Evil Queen's bidding. The dwarves care for Snow White. The Prince saves her in the end. Take a closer look at the plots. Men don't get the shaft a lot of people think they do.

372 I mentioned this earlier today, but as I get older I don't like how all the Disney female heroiness seem to look alike. They all have those big eyes like those unattractive figures from decades ago with stupid sayings underneath like "Love Never means having to say you're sorry." (any old fogies recall those?) You just change the hair color and sometimes the skin color and all the heroines look alike. Aesthetically it's unappealing to me and it lacks creativity.

Same with their Diamond Editions now of Snow White and Pinocchio. I may have to bite the bullet and join their blu-ray/DVD club to be able to pick up some of these flicks for less than a king's-- oh excuse me, a queen's ransom.

Countless illustrations and movies showed it rearing up out of the water, and sliding down gracefully. Then when the wreck was discovered in 1985, it became obvious that it broke in two at the surface before it sank. One elderly survivor said something like, "I knew it! I've said all along that it broke in two. I saw it with my own eyes." But she was just a little girl at the time. Nobody paid any attention to her. All the experts said it sank in one piece.

445 Regarding the woman who claims to have seen a plane in the water near the Andaman Islands. On clear day, you can easily see a semi truck on the highway from an airliner at 35000 feet. Of course you have the highway itself to focus upon. Looking for something, floating in the ocean, and not knowing where to look? A whole different order of difficulty. So she might have seen something. But she is also a muslim, of the hijab-wearing tribe. If I want to pull my tinfoil hat on only a little tighter, I'd note that the "prime suspect" in this disappearance, the muslim pilot, is a fanboi of a muslim-brotherhood connected politician. So this "witness" may well be a red herring, intended to draw searchers away from the plane's real location.

449 "Any woman who was actually "worried" about the possibility of drinking whilst pregnant would conduct the test BEFORE going to a bar." Eh, I mean I'm not a big drinker by any means, but I have a wacky cycle and we were in the 'what will be will be' school of thought on family planing, so there have been times that we've gone out to dinner and I've thought "should I have a drink? It's possible I'm pregnant." Of course, to be fair, I've been pregnant a lot. Like *counts* I don't know probably half my marriage, so it's not a crazy assumption. If there were a dollar pregnancy test in the bathroom I might have used it.

I don't think Fetal Alcohol Syndrome is some clearcut, get drunk while pregnant and your kid will have it.  Early on in a pregnancy it probably is very low risk.  So kind of stupid for state funded pregnancy kits in bars.

 

But if you've got a bowling ball infront of you and you're still drinking, it would be real tempting to say something.  Same for if you're smoking.

537 Other than the ridiculous cost, it wouldn't be that crazy to have pregnancy tests in the bathroom as long as there was nothing compelling women to use them. Of course, there's also no need or reason for the government to be involved in this situation. Just throw some tests in the tampon vending machine and anyone who's a bit worried she could be pregnant can put her mind at ease. I disagree Lauren. Costs be damned, it is entirely crazy to have pregnancy tests in the bathrooms of bars, especially if the aim is to "help women act more responsibly" in an effort to combat fetal alcohol poisoning! If you think you might be pregnant and were concerned about the future of a potential child, wouldn't your 1st stop be the local Walgreen's for an EPT before you head out to Robbie's Roadhouse? Once you're AT the bar, how many drinks in, until you decide that THIS is the perfect time and place "to find out". I would submit, that a girl would have to be pretty damned trashed to decide to do an EPT in a bar's manky bathroom and probably doesn't speak well of her ability to "act responsibly" in the next few hours much less months or years. Okay, Lauren. I take what I said before back. It is not entirely crazy. It's entirely fucking stupid! Not you {{{HUGS}}}! The idea. The idea just gets more dumb the more I think on it.

Anna, interesting point about VB-6 and visibility of surface objects at altitude.  "Incredible Victory", indeed ...... when one remembers that one tiny incident and how it played such a huge role.

 

On the mine incident, I am surprised there have not been many more floating mine incidents in the Pacific.  Our battlefield guide in Okinawa told us the last major incident involving WWII ordnance there was a naval mine blowing up when struck during construction in Naha harbor in 1993 (?).

 

When you get to Kure, right across the street from the battleship Yamato museum there is a very good Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force museum.  Traces the development of the JMSDF from its first activity:  mine clearing around Japan.  Our mining of Japanese waters was unimaginably massive and thorough, and I never knew that we stood up the post-war Japanese navy by having them clear their own waters of our mines.

554 Hope folks here don't mind if I share this but...

I only recently found out that an old musician friend of mine from my Lakewood public access days, a good guy named John Christensen, recorded and self-released a rock album 20 years ago. It's now available at Amazon and I'm about to post a positive review of it.

If you were to ask me the music style, I'd call it Huey Lewis meets the Ventures with a touch of the Tubes thrown in. I should also mention John got no less than Robocop's Miguell Ferrer to do a "Thriller"-style narration on the opening track, and he's friends with Barnes & Barnes (Bill Mumy and Robert Haimer) who played guitar and keyboards on a few of the tracks. He also had help getting some of his recording equipment from no less than Dr. Demento himself, Barrett Hansen. It's got some humor but isn't a comedy record per se.

Hope people here will give it a chance. I did and was quite pleased with how enjoyable it is.

558 Deety, They already have signs in every women's restroom at every restaurant that serves alcohol that says something like "women who are pregnant or think they could be pregnant shouldn't drink". I think those are pretty ridiculous because a)duh and b) hello, government overreach, but the point is that the concept of pregnancy, not drinking, and bars are already linked. Having pregnancy tests available isn't a huge jump. Again, I don't think it should be some big government program, but it's not a huge affront either. And I can assure you, if there were cheap pregnancy tests in bars, they'd be used.

565 I had always thought that Fetal Alcohol Syndrome was caused by drinking during early pregnancy, but from reading the comments, it's plain that women often drink before they know they're pregnant, sometimes heavily, and the children turn out fine. So it appears that it's a fairly rare phenomenon which only happens when the mother is a raging alcoholic who never stops drinking during pregnancy.

567 That list of the "60 Best TV Theme Songs" is total stupidity. Not only is it just the writer's random opinion, but he has a poor knowledge of TV history and thus an opinion not worth paying attention to. A few obvious (and not-so-obvious) greats not included on the list: 1. Top Cat (the Hanna Barbera cartoon). Unforgettable theme, terrible show. 2. Speed Racer -- some of the best lyrics EVER, and most interesting song structure. 3. I Dream of Jeannie - Hugo Montenegro is DA BOMB. Brilliant arrangement. (Also, the never-used lyrics are incredibly clever). 4. Fireball XL5 - Kitschy and corny -- and so lovable! 5. Ranma 1/2 - The closing theme is an all-time classic, although maybe it doesn't count because it never aired in the US? (Actually, the custom in Japan for years was to take the catchiest pop song on the radio at any given moment and use it as the theme to that season's "dorama" 11-episode soap opera. Many forgettable Japanese shows had great theme songs.) 6. The Munsters! C'mon! (Need I go on?)

Brace yourself (this is not a joke): http://www.scribd.com/doc/213380090/1999-NYC-Firefighter-Written-Test GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't want to give away too many spoilers, but...race is never mentioned anywhere on the test, nor ethnicity, nor are there any "cultural" type questions that "only a white person" could answer correctly (what would such a question even be like? "How much mayonnaise should you spread on your white-bread baloney sandwich?"). Instead, the questions are like this (actual example): "16. Which type of blade must a firefighter use with a portable power saw to cut a metal security door? A) A carbide tip blade. B) A silicon carbide blade. C) An aluminum oxide blade D) A carbide tip or aluminum oxide blade." But it's racist because RACIST!

Of course, the risk is that he will turn off some conservative voters who will see "multiculturalism" as a code for "lax immigration regulation" and liberals who'll say he's pandering. Of course, it's all a bit moot since there's no way in hell Abortion Barbie becomes governor...

However, it is only effective in male company, straight male at that. and using it in a disparaging manner is counterproductive, as you noted is not inherently bad only in some circumstances. anyway to make a long story slightly longer, I have quit using it in a derogatory manner; from my perspective it is more good than bad.

621 Seamus- Let me ask a short question that will require a long answer. I have an 11th grader possibly interested in medicine. I can swing it to send him through if he gets that far. Would he be completely nuts to pursue it, in the current climate? Especially for a specialty, like radiology? I don't know that he would make it as a GP, which I am guessing will be in big demand.

623 574 A question for the metalworkers:

If I have a good x-y travel vise and the sturdy drill press linked in my sig (a benchtop Craftsman from about 1955, a lucky find), is there any benefit to be gained by acquiring a low-end mini-mill? Posted by: Piercello at March 22, 2014 12:36 AM (jJ97i) Hide posts from (jJ97i)


I've got an old Craftsman benchtop drill press with an X-Y vise on it, and actually used it with an end mill once, but would recommend strongly that you get the mill. (1) It's heavier and more solid -- that means you'll be fighting vibration less and your machining operations will be smoother and less bouncy. (2) It is not very safe to use a chuck held in by friction to hold an end-mill compared to a screwed-in collet. (3) The Z travel is under much better control. (4) The operable envelope is much larger. (5) It'll eventually screw-up your chuck.


And, of course (6) You can get the HF mini-mill for $400 if you work it right.

627 574 If I have a good x-y travel vise and the sturdy drill press linked in my sig (a benchtop Craftsman from about 1955, a lucky find), is there any benefit to be gained by acquiring a low-end mini-mill? Yes. The drill you have has a chuck, and it is designed only for drilling. Low-end mini-mills will take collets, which in turn can accept either drill bits or a variety of end mills, AND use them to cut sideways. COllets are designed to do this, drill chucks are not designed for side loads.

Take 'em back to the actual person writing the prescription and have 'em check (a) if the PD is correct, and (b) if there is cylinder correction, whether the axis is correct for both near and far elements. If you have the prescription handy, you can easily see if (b) applies -- you'll typically see something like O. D. Sph +1.75 Cyl +0.5 287 degrees. O. S. Sph +1.25 Cyl +0.25 82 degrees.

I think you underestimate how often married women/ women in long term relationships pee on sticks. I mean, they sell them in packs of 25 on amazon. I can't really speak for single women who have random hookups, but I'd imagine they're not immune from the behavior either. Now people who are going out with the intention to get wasted probably aren't going to be taking random pregnancy tests at a bar. If that's what the rep is picturing, I'd say he's misguided. But in a world where you can buy tampons, condoms, and advil in the bathroom, I don't think throwing pregnancy tests into the mix is crazy.

702 The original point...was that yet another R was stepping his crank with the ole golf spikes by even opining on this. Yes. Also, "since stepping on one's crank whilst wearing golf spikes" is apparently not quick-enough fatal to the dumb-ass involved... I suggested snipers. Because beyond being fucking embarrassing, the thrashing about these self-wounding types do, hurts or puts in jeopardy those around them until the dumb-ass finally succumbs (and they will) to the gangrene they inflicted on themselves.

735 "The Equalizer" theme was written by Stewart Copeland, drummer for "the Police". Copeland's dad, Miles Copeland Jr, was in the very early CIA, and stayed there about 20 years. Miles's claim to fame was his post-retirement allegation that the CIA had slipped LSD-type drugs to Ed Muskie without Muskie's knowledge, which caused the famous "meltdown" that ended his presidential campaign. Also, Airwolf was bad ass.

736 What's your music preference? Posted by: RWC at March 22, 2014 01:24 AM (QeH9j) Well, I won't say "show tunes" after denigrating metal I like Alternative, Country Rock, Folk Rock, Country, Concept Albums, and just some well done easy listening tunes Last night I was listening to the Beach Boys Smile sessions which was released in its entirety in 2011. The original recording sessions were done in 1967 and had Brian but it would have been a commercial flop had it been released then. Released between 1970 and 1973 it would have been rated up there with Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon as a concept album, the early 70s had fantastic new ideas Listen to the album now, and it doesn't seem dated like even many of the classics. It was ahead of its time

749 My music preferences: Alternative Rock Klezmer Afro-pop Musical comedy songs with extremely intricate rhyming. Also, I can't say I prefer the tamburitza music of my people, but play some of that shit and my body responds atavistically.

But in the end, Metal triumphed. the '00's saw many a brilliant band begin, and to this day there are brilliant debut albums coming out, and many more bands waiting in the wings. I'll put Spacegoat up against "Lady Gaga" or any other idjit pop star. \m/ \m/ Posted by: Heavy Metal Psychedelicat Early 90's, to be sure the New Wave had petered out and hair bands were on stilts, but RnB influenced pop carried the day. The main thing is that rock was dead, dead, dead radio wise in 1990. Metal was not only zombie like, it was pining for more hair spray. Witness embarrassing metal albums sans makeup and hair. Power chord grunge broke through that crap. It cleared the decks for made some progress in rock until ProTools came along.

785 '90s music? Best-of list? Firstly: Yes, the '90s mostly sucked. Especially as one lived through them. HOWEVER, as with any decade, in retrospect it's much easier to pluck out all the all-time classics, which in some cases you only later realize were all-time classics. So, any list of "best" '90s music MUST include: Cranberries - "Dream" Cardigans - "Lovefool" They Might Be Giants - "Birdhouse in Your Soul" Smashmouth - "Walkin' on the Sun" Beastie Boys - "Body Movin'" These were all big hits, so are more likely to be universally liked. I won't insist on more esoteric "genre" hits that I think are even better, since most people don't know them and thus wouldn't agree. I realize that the first three songs are decidedly testosterone-challenged. But sometimes estrogen rock is what the times require.

I don't know much Gwar, but I know a lot of Slayer. - - - - - One of my favorite tunes, (I think it was from the 90's), was "Time" by Anthrax. It is a pulse-pounding song that stuck with me because it rocked it all to Hell and Back.

789 But it's racist because RACIST! Posted by: zombie at March 22, 2014 12:44 AM (mizYg) No zombie, it's racist because black people are too stupid to study for and pass this test. Bill De Blasio sez so! You should believe him. That's why he's so ADAMANT about kicking minority kids out of performing charter schools in Haarlem. It's NOT about owing the Teacher's Unions, oh no! He doesn't want them to get a taste of success at academic achievement or doing well on tests at an early age because he and all of the "experts" around him truly believe that "those kids" are destined to grow up into "those people" who can't possibly study for or pass a test. Why let "them" grow up with expectations? Isn't it "kinder" to nip vigorous growths in the bud? OK. That was a bit much but on some level I believe that the electorate in Manhattan that works really hard to get their kids into "competitive pre-schools" really find it fucking offensive that little poor brown kids should or could out-perform little Maisey or Agamemnon or Plexor. They themselves may be garden variety roses, transplanted from the mid-west to NYC but By God, their kids are going to be fucking cultivated hot-house flowers! (Never you mind the elisions and contradictions in that. I mean every one.) I think, deep down, they look on the poor little Dominican girl testing better in a public charter, testing better than their Noah as not just a threat but as an affront. For all the talk of "equality" and "social justice", I think that many of these types consider most not of their circle to be "weeds" and I don't think they would give a shit whether the social state just mows the edges for them or takes a flame-thrower to the whole lot.

The desire to preserve “racial purity” and to prevent over-breeding of the “lower” races and classes was the overt and publicly pronounced goal of the pro-abortion progressive eugenics campaign in the early 20th century; only after eugenics fell from public favor did the leftists devise deceptive new narratives to justify abortion. White progressives still believe that blacks cannot control their sexuality and are too irresponsible to use birth control reliably, so the only way to keep them from overpopulating is to keep abortion legal and cheap or free." ...etc.

I saw them open for Danzig on Halloween night. Oh, the illegal bonfires and a youthful me tossing grown men three times my size in the most pit on the 45 degree hill at the old Irvine MeddowsÂ… They also did one of the few examples of a cover song that was bette than the origional: "Summer Breeze" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bNGee0_pXxY The second part "Set me on fire" is brilliant homage to garage rock, and briliant in their own right. I prefer the "Summer Breeze" version with the lyrics played straight, but the music made heavy. Very invocative of a late Summer evening with the setting sun and the colors of dusk.

Love him lots; hold him close; keep him busy. But also realize that it's not uncommon for a bond with someone who has passed on to pull someone over -- and for some older folks, it may even be a mercy instead of a tragedy. But the more he's got grandkids to spoil, tales to tell, dinners to share, counsel to give....the more likely he'll tarry this side of the veil. After all, he knows she'll understand, and what's a few years beside eternity?


People have a way of dying after a scheduled event -- like a birthday, wedding, graduation, or even a stupid ball game.....because they hold on until it's done. Keep his calendar full of joy and love, and you'll only have to worry about his health.

850 By people who weren't really planning to go out drinking but got dragged out by friends and want to check to make sure that drinking is ok. I think you underestimate how often married women/ women in long term relationships pee on sticks. I mean, they sell them in packs of 25 on amazon. That's kind of a contradiction, no? So, there are a cadre of married (etc.) women who are buying packs of 25 pee-sticks @ $X on Amazon and yet the ONE day they weren't supplied with a check stick is when they are suddenly, literally, dragged out to a bar by friends? If only there were some cheap EPT's (God knows how expired) in the manky bathroom to check whether they should drink or no? I can only surmise that purchasing value-paks of EPTs means that you are trying VERY hard to BECOME pregnant by an Husband or S/O. In which case, I would say that your best bet, when dragged into ANY bar is not.to.drink.at.all. Also, I wouldn't trust an EPT type test to tell me "day-to-day", get shit-faced or abstain which, truth be told, if it's in a freakin' bar bathroom that's kind of the message.

855 For all we retch at 70s music, and rightfully so since the popular songs were barely car dealer jingle quality, the early 70s were a golden age for album rock. The most brilliant albums ever were produced by The Who, Pink Floyd, The Allman Brothers, Grateful Dead, Yes, David Bowie, Emerson Lake and Palmer, Neil Young, and even The Eagles, Doobie Brothers, and Chicago. By the time the late 70s rolled around though they were phoning it in with the exception of The Wall by Pink Floyd Born to Run was okay, so was CSN's reunion album and a few others, but Chicago went flaccid after Robert Lamm left, the Doobie Brothers when Michael McDonald took over, and the Eagles made the most overrated album ever, "Hotel California" and although I loved it then, I hate Fleetwood Mac's "Rumours" now

871 Inventing a new genre is one thing, but Brian Wilson changed the way songs were written and structured. Good Vibrations was a "modular" song, or a sort of mini-suite. Many artists said their best songs wouldn't have been made had Brian not pulled it off in 1966.

873 I'll listen to just about anything. I don't like country or rap much, but I've been "forced" to listen to the stuff because of the bars I've worked at. Give any genre about six months and you'll be immersed enough to find something that Freaking Rocks. Motown introduced me to some great tunes that rap/R&B/dance has "sampled/stolen" Country tunes grow on you if you're standing still. As a child of the Eighties, listening to Richard Marx, Nena and Information Society? ...I find it difficult to criticize others' musical tastes. As an Emcee in just about every type of club in N.E. Ohio? I've found that Hispanics are the "least accepting" of my particular humor. ..the "talent", at least. The audience "Put Up With Me".

919 Good morning early risers and night owls. :^) Todays hymn of faith, "Give to The wind Thy fears" with words by Paul Gerhardt translated by John Wesley, the Anglican priest and founder of the Methodist movement: "Gerhardt was born March 12, 1607 and was exposed to the German hymn writing tradition at Wittenberg University. He was ordained a Lutheran minister at the ripe age of 44, and married even after that. Only one of his children survived infancy. His first appointment to clergy was in Berlin, where in 1666 the division between Reformed and Lutheran theology was so abrasive that the government there banned any mention from either side of doctrinal differences from the pulpit. Gerhardt refused to obey this and was dismissed by his congregation shortly thereafter. To add to his suffering, his wife died two years later. Gerhardt died in 1676 after preaching in Lübben for seven years.*** The hymns of Gerhardt are profound, theologically rich, yet deeply moving. For example, Gerhardt recognized his own depravity and the importance of God’s sovereignty in his salvation, as he this hymn and others including “Jesus, Thy Boundless Love to Me” and the very famous Lenten hymn "O Sacred head Now Wounded." ^^ from the website, "Immoderate" which refers to a quote, "If I am immoderate, I am immoderate to God." by someone named Bengel A modern rendition of the hymn with lyrics provided: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htCkTwCAJ_Y

926 It's indeed vulva, not vagina. Anatomy izz about parts, physiology izz about how yer parts work. Spread your legs, you're still not showing your vagina to the sunshine. A vagina is an INTERNAL structure. The external structures in aggregate are referred to as 'vulva'. You need melanin to create Vitamin D with the sun. A four inch by four inch patch of skin on your arm, exposed to to sunlight for 20 minutes, will do it. If you're older than this woman, live in northern climates, are extremely fair, or have limited outdoor behavior you might end up needing an oral supplement. As we age, our abilty to create this vital vitamin decreases. And since a lot of us avoid the sun altogether and/or use copious sunscreen to avoid skin cancer, this is indeed an issue. None of this has anything to do with your genitals. Worried about yeast? Wear cotton crotch panties and wash them in a hot, white laundry load with bleach. Ditch the too tight pants/panties. Eat yogurt. This is usually an issue with younger women and decreases to be one as we age. Eating non food items like clay is called 'pica'. It's a psychological disorder. There is clay type matter in medications like Kaopectate, which is used for diarrhea. Culturally speaking, a lot of 'tribes' do/did a lot of things that aren't necessarily compatible with good health. Eating dirt is one of them. Want parasites or other contaminates? Eat dirt. Tribes over the years have done other things too like rub dung on the umbilical stump of newborns. Newborns have then been known to die of tetanus. That is a bug that also lives in 'dirt'. You might want to avoid dirt, just saying. And stay up to date on your tetanus vax as a matter of good form. Rule of thumb: When some yahoo starts yammering about 'toxins', guaranteed they're about to launch into lauding some bizarro practice that gets rid of same said 'toxins'. You want to be able to rid your body of such then protect your liver. There are no toxins clinging to the inside of your cheeks, and they are also not clinging to the inside of your colon. You want to argue for 'organic' farming practices, I'm all ears. Avoiding pesticides etc in your diet would be a good thing. It certainly can't hurt you. But trying to rid yourself of some mythical toxin that you haven't even verified that you have inside of your body through some tribal practice that hasn't been proved, with methods that are questionable and through the ingestion of non organic material is frankly stupid. All of this is the direct result of a lack of science education for our youth. Think about this story the next time your non-science major leaning kid says "I'll just take earth science and nothing else because I don't have to..." Every time I see this crap, my brain gets tired. /soapbox

927 My favorite TV show intro is the peppy opening to the Gerry Anderson series, UFO Loved it! But the original BSG was also very good, and Space:1999, as others have pointed out. There's not a lot of sci-fi on that list in general. But I also really liked the theme to 'Wild, Wild West'. Really gets the blood circulating.
