    I’m excited to share that we’re appointing @elonmusk
    to our board! Through conversations with Elon in recent weeks, it became clear to us that he would bring great value to our Board.

    *TWITTER SAYS IN AGREEMENT WITH MUSK TO NOT OWN MORE THAN 14.9%

    From the CEO of the Babylon Bee

    Musk reached out to us before he polled his followers about Twitter’s commitment to free speech. He wanted to confirm that we had, in fact, been suspended. He even mused on that call that he might need to buy Twitter. Now he’s the largest shareholder and has a seat on the board.

    https://twitter.com/SethDillon/status/1511325246967660547

    I think by that point Musk had already made the purchase but hadn’t disclosed it. He missed the SEC filing deadline, too – I think he had 10 days – so he’ll get slapped with a fine for that.

    What is a ‘Class II director’?

    https://www.sec.gov/ix?doc=/Archives/edgar/data/1418091/000119312522095651/d342257d8k.htm

    The Board will appoint Mr. Musk to serve as a Class II director with a term expiring at the Company’s 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders as described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, subject to and contingent upon the provision by Mr. Musk of any information that the Company reasonably requires to complete its customary onboarding procedures (including a customary background check) for members of the Board.

    Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) head Rochelle Walensky announced a sweeping review of her agency.

    “At the conclusion of this collective effort, we will develop new systems and processes to deliver our science and program to the American people, along with a plan for how CDC should be structured to facilitate the public health work we do,” Walensky wrote in an email sent to agency staff on Monday.

    Jim Macrae, the associate administrator for primary health care at the Health Resources and Services Administration, will be overseeing a one-month review of the agency, which has been under mounting public scrutiny over how it has responded to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    https://www.theepochtimes.com/cdc-director-rochelle-walensky-announces-sweeping-review-of-agency_4383851.html

    A whole month! Yowser! I bet the report will scold the CDC for not using the correct pronouns

    A Chinese Communist Party-backed influence group with a history of collaborating with Bill Gates co-sponsored an event targeting American officials to support collaborating with China on farming in the U.S.
    .
    .
    The Chinese People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign Countries (CPAFFC) co-hosted the 2022 U.S. – China Agriculture Roundtable with the U.S.-China Heartland Association (USCHA).

    Founded by former Democrat Governor of Missouri Bob Holden, the USHCA purports to be a “bipartisan organization committed to building stronger ties between USHCA Region (20 states located in the USA between the Great Lakes to the Gulf) and the People’s Republic of China.”

    “Our focus will be on Trust Building efforts connecting government officials; business leaders; educational and community interests with like minded institutions between the Heartland Region and the People’s Republic of China,” the group’s mission statement euphemizes.
    .
    .
    The recent agriculture forum featured a host of American officials including Oklahoma Secretary of Agriculture Blayne Arthur, Kansas Secretary of Agriculture Mike Beam, Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig, Missouri Director of Agriculture Chris Chinn, and Congressman Darin LaHood. Other individuals who play a critical role in America’s food supply chains – including CEO of U.S. Farmers and Ranchers in Action Erin Fitzgerald, President & CEO of U.S. Dairy Export Council Krysta Hardin, and CEO of the U.S. Soybean Export Council Jim Sutter – were also in attendance.

    From the Joe Rogan interview with Gavin Debecker. Pfizer pays for 75% of ad buys for all major media in the us. And The US And New Zealand are the only countries in the world that allow pharmaceutical companies to advertise.

    Popcorn indeed.

    Even billionaire entrepreneurs can’t fight City Hall. Elon knows this. Especially if the mandarins at City Hall included the elves from ‘Olde Foggy Bottom’ and their enforcers from the politicized FBI. Klaus Schwab’s World Economic Forum are just the velvet glove of the One World Government. The steel inside that glove is the US bureaucracy and especially the security services and enforcement arms of the US Federal State. These covert ‘apparatchniks’ have already bought into a global governance model, latterly called Agenda 2030, and have been building the necessary infrastructure for two decades. The US bureaucracy (read The Swamp) have been recruiting their placeholders for decades. Ike knew a thing or two way back in 1960!

    Corporates fall into line because they know that to oppose ‘the Swamp’ means that they would be financially broken by the ‘ I-95 bureaucracy’. 2020 was that same Swamp breaking cover, to change the ‘final check’ to their total power. The People and the ballot box. The Swamp succeeded, and then successfully covered their tracks. Agenda 2030 is the curtain for total global governance, and the United States bureaucracy (AKA The Swamp) is the little man behind the curtain pulling all of the strings.

    Putin knows this as does Xi, and each react the best way that they can. Putin with a last minute ‘hail mary pass’ into oblivion, and Xi in a eventually futile effort to establish an Imperial Chinese Empire before the ‘curtain’ and ‘the little man behind the curtain’ snatches global control from the CCP.

    Elon either has balls of brass or he knows that eventually ‘the Swamp’ will bring him to heel… like all of the other corporate billionaires.

    You fail to see the forest for the trees mate.

    All the IPCC has to do is to retain and strengthen it’s power to keep hammering away at public opinion and crushing dissent whenever that dissent pops its head from the opposing trench.

    The IPCC has to just control ‘the Narrative’, no matter how crazy that narrative might be and how many logical obstacles it encounters. Eventually the Many-on-One principle succeeds and the logical voices will be crushed. The principle of the BIG LIE is strong with the Swamp. Just go and ask a school age kid and you will get ‘ The Narrative’ answer. These bastards work on a multi-generational stage where logic has no place in the polity. Think Germany 1930-1945.

    people are showing the uncut clips (longer) saying they show Joe in a ‘just fine light’ – but they don’t. CLEARLY Obama thrilled them, the guy who is POTUS not so mucy

    So why is the EU pissed off at Hungary? They don’t like Orban? He makes them look like limp dicks?

    The EU executive on Tuesday launched a never-used procedure against Hungary that could see the Hungarian government stripped of EU funding for falling short on anticorruption and flouting democratic standards.

    The move comes two days after Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban won re-election with an overwhelming majority, claiming his victory as a win over liberal values defended by Brussels.

    The nationalist and ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin is frequently accused in Brussels of backsliding on democratic norms.

    The European Commission “will now send the letter of formal notification to start the conditionality mechanism,” European Commission head Ursula von der Leyen said to applause at a plenary session of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France.

    BREAKING: Archbishop Viganò calls for “official investigation” to “shed light on the abdication of Benedict XVI” and the Fraud Conclave of 2013

    Certain Popes, let us not forget, are granted ; others are inflicted . But before discussing the next conclave, it is necessary to shed light on the abdication of Benedict XVI and on the question of the frauds of the 2013 Conclave, which sooner or later will have to give rise to an official investigation. If there were to be proofs of irregularity, the conclave would be null, the election of Bergoglio null, just as all his appointments, acts of government and magisterium would be null. A reset that would providentially bring us back to the status quo ante, with a College of Cardinals composed only of cardinals appointed up to Benedict XVI, ousting all those created since 2013, notoriously ultra-progressive. Certainly the current situation, with all the rumors about Ratzinger’s resignation and Bergoglio’s election, does not help the ecclesial body and creates confusion and disorientation in the faithful.

    Vigarno’s efforts to move the Vatican bureaucracy will come to nothing for the Vatican has been systematically infiltrated since at least the 1930s and has been generationally compromised. A better solution would be to appoint a CIA Director who would mandate the release of all of the CIA material regarding the 2013 Conclave, and especially all of the intercepted communications that led up to that Conclave.

    They had better get their ‘skates on or all of the participants of the 2013 Conclave will be dead and all of the post Conclave appointments will be null and void, sweeping the Vatican ranks completely clear.

    Maybe that is the Lord’s plan!

    You may be onto something there. It is pretty obvious that the powers behind the throne know that Ol’ Slow Joe is poison going into the 2022 elections and will be more so in 2024. Very likely they are at work creating some narrative about how the job has been too much for him, he’s given his all for the good of the people, and it is time for him to step aside for the next generation. Clips like this will be used as substantiating evidence. Although why they would have to stage something is beyond me, Biden is perfectly capable of looking dazed and confused without any intervention.

    The music reviewer, Chris Richards, thinks reviews Evan Parker’s latest and outright threatens him. Not on the grounds of his work, which he praises, but on the grounds of his COVID/political statements.

    Chris Richards loves the music and waxes poetic about it: “this new album that Parker has made with Natural Information Society sounds like life, as if the band’s signature groove might be a growing, changing, living, breathing thing.” Parker’s astonishing technique is “inherently dazzling.” But Richards can’t let go of the fact that Parker is also a dissenter from everything he thinks is good and true: “So how could someone this attentive on the bandstand, this empathetic in song, this worldly in his playing come to the conclusion that a decimating global pandemic isn’t real? It baffles and burns.”

    Richards also includes a veiled warning: “It’ll be a shame if Parker’s denialism ultimately fouls this band’s great art.” How could it, unless smarmy little fascists such as Chris Richards work to get Parker canceled and discredited because he has dared to enunciate politically unacceptable opinions?

    Not at those checkpoints. They’re permanent facilities that have been in place for decades. One is on I-10between El Paso and Las Cruces, and the other is on US 54 between El Paso and Alamogordo. The reason they’re there is because Mexican citizens are allowed to travel within a certain distance of the border (20 miles, I believe) without any sort of visa. Those checkpoints are the “real” border.

    They’re shut down because the administration isn’t interested in doing anything to interfere with illegals.

    Do you mean CIA in the sense of ‘Central Intelligence Agency’?

    You bet I mean that CIA!

    Their fingerprints are all over this.

    This take over has been in gestation since 1870 with twin advances of communism and anti-Church Masonic Lodge. The Masons began first penetrating and corrupting priests and especially bishops for a century.

    The Russian Revolution generated an insertion of over a thousand covert communist agents as seminarians into the Church in the early 1930s.By the 1960s many of them were bishops.

    The Vatican II Council generated a parallel Church to accompany a socialist led One World Government that would arise with the Club of Rome in 1970. Alas the Soviet Union fell in 1989 thanks in part to Pope John Paul II. The Church infiltrators both socialist and Masonic planned to seize the Church in toto on the death of Pope John Paul. They failed when Benedict was elected rather than Boglinio. The Sant Galan Group of mainly German Cardinals, then undermined Benedict and forced his retirement and put their man’ Francis into the Papacy.

    The Globalists then had their prototype Globalist Church to accompany their Agenda 21 Globalisation effort. Trump ruined that schedule and we now have the Agenda 2030, globalist plans.

    The CIA have been deeply involved since at least the 1970s. The failure of the election of Boglinio on the death of John Paul II, and the conspiracy of the German Sant Galan Group in Switzerland certainly raised CIA interest as we are talking about influencing 1.4 billion people. The CIA has been listening and bugging the hell out of the Vatican and San Galan Group ever since. There was a LOT of dirty dealing in the election of Francis as Pope that broke a multitude of Canon Law.

    The CIA is part of the Swamp and has its fingers into the power conduits that is the One World Government, Agenda 21 and Agenda 2030. If you want to understand what’s happening in the Church ask the CIA!

    Stalin’s Holodomor in 1931-2 that saw up to 5 million Western Ukies starve may have been the reason for the retribution in 1941 by NAZI Ukies against Russian speaking Ukies. That doesn’t explain why Azov Bn lives in Eastern Ukraine, and murders Russian speaking Ukies???

    I should read up on them. Mostly I don’t care to invest brain energy in neo nazis. I only met them on the street every when I was in Portland, Oregon. I could swear their IQ level was about 60. They attract a certain type of stunted personality that can be used by a few smart one.

    Ukraine though. It seems like these 11 factions each have their own TV channel etc. I imagine they are from a minority group in Donbas that was treated poorly by the Russian speakers. The ethnic tension seems like what we might have seen in the old KKK times.

    There was a mention on a Joe Rogan podcast of a TV screen shot of Ukrainians in t-shirts that display in Cyrillic “Take care the Russian problem first, then the Jewish one” It’s supposed to be used in some western media but I haven’t seen it yet.

    Lot of people in these situations. Few of them want to be addicts. I used to attend NA meetings. There was a CEO in one that went the Hunter route. Destroyed his life but he turned it around completely. But when you meet the people there is a group of them that get past the burden, a group of them with a long hard road ahead of them. And a group of them that acquire a type of schizophrenia induced by the drugs. It’s hard to tell what moves a person past these stages. Religion seems to work for some and not others.

    Good

    (Reuters) – The Solar Star project in California is among the largest solar energy facilities in the world, boasting 1.7 million panels spread over 3,000 acres north of Los Angeles. Its gargantuan scale points to an uncomfortable fact for the industry: a natural gas power plant 100 miles south produces the same amount of energy on just 122 acres.

    The dynamic encapsulates the industry’s biggest obstacle to growth: Solar farms require huge amounts of land, and there’s a fast-growing movement, fueled by politicized social-media campaigns, to prevent solar developers from permitting new sites in rural America.

    A pastor in one of our congregations related how he did some family history research. Some of his family came from one of the areas of Stalin’s purges. He has letters from people who remained behind requesting help as they were out of food and money. Family in US sent them money but obviously it never got through the Communist censors. They would get letters asking why they weren’t getting help and why didn’t the family care about them? He said the last letter from the families over there said they had just slaughtered the last cow and were very angry at the US based families for not caring about them. Communism and that version of totalitarianism is pure evil.

    Shock result in particle experiment could spark physics revolution

    Scientists just outside Chicago have found that the mass of a sub-atomic particle is not what it should be.

    The measurement is the first conclusive experimental result that is at odds with one of the most important and successful theories of modern physics.

    The team has found that the particle, known as a W boson, is more massive than the theories predicted.
    .
    .
    The scientists at the Fermilab Collider Detector (CDF) in Illinois have found only a tiny difference in the mass of the W Boson compared with what the theory says it should be – just 0.1%. But if confirmed by other experiments, the implications are enormous. The so-called Standard Model of particle physics has predicted the behaviour and properties of sub-atomic particles with no discrepancies whatsoever for fifty years. Until now.

    CDF’s other co-spokesperson, Prof Georgio Chiarelli, from INFN Sezione di Pisa, told BBC News that the research team could scarcely believe their eyes when they saw the results.

    “No-one was expecting this. We thought maybe we got something wrong.” But the researchers have painstakingly gone through their results and tried to look for errors. They found none.

    The result, published in the journal Science, could be related to hints from other experiments at Fermilab and the Large Hadron Collider at the Swiss-French border. These, as yet unconfirmed results, also suggest deviations from the Standard Model, possibly as a result of an as yet undiscovered fifth force of nature at play.

    The Rolls Royce small reactor projects (neighbourhood reactor) runs on Uranium.

    I think your confusing Thorium LFTR reactors that are being developed in Japan, China, India and Italy. They use a seed fissile material Uranium to get going but then use Thorium as the fuel but it’s liquid fissile material NOT pelletized fuel. Thorium can also burn extremely long half life fissile material instead of storing it for tens of thousands of years, rendering it safe after just a few hundred years, after extracting a shit load of energy from it.

    @ Bunk Five Hawks X:
    … On the other hand …
    The Confusing Country

    Australia is a very confusing place, taking up a large amount of the bottom half of the planet. It is recognisable from orbit because of many unusual features, including what at first looks like an enormous bite taken out of its southern edge; a wall of sheer cliffs which plunge deep into the girting sea. Geologists assure us that this is simply an accident of geomorphology and plate tectonics, but they still call it the “Great Australian Bight” proving that not only are they covering up a more frightening theory, but they can’t spell either.

    The first of the confusing things about Australia is the status of the place. Where other land masses and sovereign lands are classified as either continent, island, or country, Australia is considered all three. Typically, it is unique in this.

    The second confusing thing about Australia are the animals. They can be divided into three categories: Poisonous, Odd, and Sheep. It is true that of the 10 most poisonous arachnids on the planet, Australia has 9 of them.

    Actually, it would be more accurate to say that of the 9 most poisonous arachnids, Australia has all of them. However, there are curiously few snakes, possibly because the spiders have killed them all. But even the spiders won’t go near the sea. Any visitors should be careful to check inside boots (before putting them on) under toilet seats (before sitting down) and generally everywhere else. A stick is very useful for this task.

    Strangely, it tends to be the second class of animals (the Odd) that are more dangerous. The creature that kills the most people each year is the common Wombat. It is nearly as ridiculous as its name, and spends its life digging holes in the ground, in which it hides. During the night it comes out to eat worms and grubs.

    The wombat kills people in two ways: First, the animal is indestructible. Digging holes in the hard Australian clay builds muscles that outclass Olympic weightlifters. At night, they often wander the roads. Semi-trailers (Road Trains) have hit them at high speed, with all 9 wheels on one side, and this merely makes them very annoyed. They express this by snorting, glaring, and walking away. Alas, to smaller cars, the wombat becomes an asymmetrical launching pad, with results that can be imagined, but not adequately described.

    The second way the wombat kills people relates to its burrowing behaviour. If a person happens to put their hand down a Wombat hole, the Wombat will feel the disturbance and think “Ho! My hole is collapsing!” at which it will brace its muscled legs and push up against the roof of its burrow with incredible force, to prevent its collapse. Any unfortunate hand will be crushed, and attempts to withdraw will cause the Wombat to simply bear down harder. The unfortunate will then bleed to death through their crushed hand as the wombat prevents him from seeking assistance. This is considered
    the third most embarrassing known way to die, and Australians don’t talk about it much.
    At this point, we would like to mention the Platypus, estranged relative of the mammal, which has a duck-bill, otter’s tail, webbed feet, lays eggs, detects its aquatic prey in the same way as the electric eel, and has venomous barbs attached to its hind legs, thus combining all ‘typical’ Australian attributes into a single improbable creature.

    The last confusing thing about Australia is the inhabitants. First, a short history: Some time around 40,000 years ago, some people arrived in boats from the north. They ate all the available food, and lot of them died. The ones that survived learned respect for the balance of nature, man’s proper place in the scheme of things, and spiders. They settled in, and spent a lot of the intervening time making up strange stories.

    Then, around 200 years ago, Europeans arrived in boats from the north. More accurately, European convicts were sent, with a few deranged and stupid people in charge. They tried to plant their crops in Autumn (failing to take account of the reversal of the seasons when moving from the top half of the planet to the bottom), ate all their food, and a lot of them died.

    About then the sheep arrived, and have been treasured ever since. It is interesting to note here that the Europeans always consider themselves vastly superior to any other race they encounter, since they can lie, cheat, steal, and litigate (marks of a civilised culture they say) – whereas all the Aboriginals can do is happily survive being left in the middle of a vast red-hot desert, equipped with a stick.

    Eventually, the new lot of people stopped being Europeans on Extended Holiday and became Australians. The changes are subtle, but deep, caused by the mind-stretching expanses of nothingness and eerie quiet, where a person can sit perfectly still and look deep inside themselves to the core of their essence, their reasons for being, and the necessity of checking inside your boots every morning for fatal surprises. They also picked up the most finely tuned sense of irony in the world, and the Aboriginal gift for making up stories. Be warned.

    There is also the matter of the beaches.

    Australian beaches are simply the nicest and best in the entire world. Although anyone actually venturing into the sea will have to contend with sharks, stinging jellyfish, stonefish (a fish which sits on the bottom of the sea, pretends to be a rock, and has venomous barbs sticking out of its back that will kill just from the pain) and surfboarders. However, watching a beach sunset is worth the risk.

    As a result of all this hardship, dirt, thirst, and wombats, you would expect Australians to be a dour lot. Instead, they are genial, jolly, cheerful, and always willing to share a kind word with a stranger, unless they are an American. Faced with insurmountable odds and impossible problems, they smile disarmingly and look for a stick. Major engineering feats have been performed with sheets of corrugated iron, string, and mud.

    Alone of all the races on earth, they seem to be free from the ‘Grass is Greener on the other side of the fence’ syndrome, and roundly proclaim that Australia is, in fact, the other side of that fence. They call the land “Oz”, “Godzone” (a verbal contraction of “God’s Own Country”) and “Best bloody place on earth, bar none, strewth.” The irritating thing about this is they may be right.

    There are some traps for the unsuspecting traveller, though. Do not Under any circumstances suggest that the beer is imperfect, unless you are comparing it to another kind of Australian beer. Do not wear a Hawaiian shirt. Religion and Politics are safe topics of conversation (Australians don’t care too much about either) but Sport is a minefield. The only correct answer to “So, howdya’ like our country, eh?” is “Best {insert your own regional swear word here} country in the world!”.

    It is very likely that, on arriving, some cheerful Australians will ‘adopt’ you, and on your first night, and take you to a pub where Australian Beer is served. Despite the obvious danger, do not refuse. It is a form of initiation rite. You will wake up late the next day with an astonishing hangover, a foul-taste in your mouth, and wearing strange clothes. Your hosts will usually make sure you get home, and waive off any legal difficulties with “It’s his first time in Australia, so we took him to the pub.”, to which the policeman will sagely nod and close his notebook. Be sure to tell the story of these events to every other Australian you encounter, adding new embellishments at every stage, and noting how strong the beer was. Thus you will be accepted into this unique culture.

    Most Australians are now urban dwellers, having discovered the primary use of electricity, which is air-conditioning and refrigerators.

    Typical Australian sayings

    “G’Day!”

    “It’s better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick.”

    “She’ll be right.”

    “And down from Kosciusko, where the pine clad ridges raise their torn and rugged battlements on high, where the air is clear is crystal, and the white stars fairly blaze at midnight in the cold and frosty sky. And where, around the overflow, the reed beds sweep and sway to the breezes, and the rolling plains are wide. The Man from Snowy River is a household word today, and the stockmen tell the story of his ride.”

    Tips to Surviving Australia

    Don’t ever put your hand down a hole for any reason whatsoever. We mean it.

    The beer is stronger than you think, regardless of how strong you think it is.

    Always carry a stick.

    Air-conditioning.

    Do not attempt to use Australian slang, unless you are a trained linguist and good in a fistfight.

    Thick socks.

    Take good maps. Stopping to ask directions only works when there are people nearby.

    If you leave the urban areas, carry several litres of water with you at all times, or you will die.

    Even in the most embellished stories told by Australians, there is always a core of truth that it is unwise to ignore.

    Am I the only one who didn’t know Pelosi doesn’t want to be Speaker anymove and she blames AOC et. al for everything?

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10699969/Nancy-Pelosi-blamed-progressives-AOC-Pramila-Jayapal-vying-queen-bee.html

    Nancy Pelosi ‘blamed’ progressives AOC and Pramila Jayapal for ‘vying to be queen bee’ and claims Democrats have alienated Hispanic and Asian American by talking about socialism and abortion

    The California Democrat, who’s been in the House for 35 years, complained that her progressive colleagues were vying to be the ‘queen bee’ of the left

    She told one senior lawmaker that Democrats had alienated Asian and Hispanic immigrants with loose talk of socialism and callousness about abortion

    Pelosi, who has said she won’t seek the speakership for the 2023 congressional term,said: ‘You couldn’t pay me a billion dollars to run for Speaker again’

    Pelosi also complained that Biden had chosen ‘untrustworthy’ Xavier Becerra for HHS and said questioned what chief of staff Ron Klain knows ‘about anything’

    Just got stuff from my sister in FL. The legislature is about to pass an alimony law that is RETROACTIVE. All divorce agreements covered in Florda will be null and void and have to abide by these rules. It totally trashes the women and if DeSantis signs it, he can kiss his POTUS aspirations goodbye. Trump will run over him with an Abrams tank on this one. And he’s somebody who knows the alimony ropes.

    agreed. But this is wiping out divorce agreements RETROACTIVELY and forcing them to abide by this new law.

    Women (as the majority are) have entered into financial agreements (mortgages/rents/car payments under a given financial picture. How would they meet those obligations now? How happy are the banks going to be when faced with all the mortgage defaults? The apartment rental agencies when they have to start the evictions and write off those loses and the loan agencies that hold the title to their cars? A lot of these women will have to declare bankruptcy and say goodbye to their credit ratings.

    My issue isn’t with making alimony ‘forever’ or not – it’s with making it retroactive to apply to all previous divorce settlements.

    Potentially dealing with a situation like that right now that is causing significant stress. It is possible we have something that is now afoul of a county ordinance but wasn’t when we put it in place. We have an A-hole neighbor, who, instead of having the balls to talk to us went running like a little kid to the county and filed a complaint. Apparently it doesn’t matter that if what we had was legal when we put it in place, we now have to remove it. (There’s more to it and some of it must be dealt with anyway, but that’s a different issue). Seems like this constitutes a “taking” by the government without compensation.

    Not wants me grandfathered in, I was told by the County Inspector that what I have would have had to have been in place in 1956 or before to be grandfathered in (not even possible). We haven’t received the formal notification so I don’t know the effective date of the ordinance so I have to get all those facts but the statement that it doesn’t matter when the ordinance was passed means that it does work that way in corrupt Pima county. My guess is the ordinance was passed because some business entities would lose money if people were allowed to do what we did so the county made it illegal on land zoned residential. Not going to provide any more details to maintain anonymity, but this is going to wind up using a lot of my parents’ money to solve a problem because it is tied to their affairs.

    @ AZfederalist:

    Oh lovely!

    This is part of the letter my sister is working on to send to DeSantis.

    This is what Bill 1796 does to people who were retired when divorced:
    My monthly income after mandatory health insurance payments will go from $5,477 to $1,266 which is the total of my Social Security benefit and an annuity. That is an over 77% reduction of income.
    .
    .

    I will have $1,266 a month to live on. I will be homeless at the age of 68. I will not be able to pay my mortgage or afford a 1 bedroom apartment on $1266 a month. I will not be able to purchase gas for my car, however I won’t be able to use it because I won’t be able to afford car insurance. I won’t be able to afford my prescription medication, but I won’t have any prescriptions since I won’t be able to afford the co-pay for a medical visit to get a prescription. I could sleep in my car if you will allow free overnight parking at Florida state parks. I will lose my life insurance.
    .
    .
    Banks: I will have to default on my mortgage as will thousands of others. How will the banks react to that? Will divorcees no longer be eligible for mortgages because of the new alimony rules ?
    .
    .
    Welfare: While my ex lives off of his $13,000 a month, I will be dependent on the state for food. How many thousands of others will no longer be paying taxes and living off of the government instead?
    .
    .
    Insurance Co.: I and so many others will no longer be able to afford life, home or auto insurance.
    .
    .
    Utilities: I won’t be able to afford internet or cable let alone soaring utility bills.

    Now tell me how DeSantis runs for POTUS

    this makes ZERO sense. i can see ending ‘forevermony’ and making the rules of divorce more predictable so it doesn’t cost as much (lawyers fees).

    however, i cannot see all of these pols being for this bill that ends all past divorce agreements alimony immediately. this makes no political sense, makes no long term sense, is probably illegal and will be struck down by the courts. it just looks bad and can be used as ammo by the pol’s next opponent. something seems not quite right here and obviously, i’m missing something that is being left out of the reporting.

    and no, im not going to read the bill. my eyes would glaze over and i’d go catatonic and lose IQ points logarithmically.

    Yep. Keep it clean. I just wanted to be rid of my ex and my lawyer was shocked when I told him all I wanted was a cash settlement that would allow me to put a down payment on a condo, that’s it. He could have the house, blah, blah. Just get me out, no fights. He upped it to half the cash in the bank accts (in order to protect his reputation he said) and that was it. I was out in 18 mos (Maryland required you be legally separated for one year before proceeding w/divorce)

    Hubby owed his ex a fixed amount of money via a MINIMUM monthly payment, but that was it. She never worked a day in her life and refused to learn to drive. After we married, the household income went up and I paid her off w/in a year. Pissed her off, she had no more excuse to contact him and TAXES!! Heh, get a job sweetheart. Hubby supported their son thru 6 years of college.

    As an android user and a web based (my preference) this whole launch has irritated and alienated me. I hope things go as well as they say because as of now I am unimpressed. But, I do understand they are doing it from the ground up without any of the existing big tech infrastructure.

    The Aussie PM Scott Morrison just flew into Canberra on Air Force One, transferred to his BMW , picked up his escorts and drove through Canberra’s Sunday morning traffic on his way to meet the Governor General at Government House in Yallumna. He is on his way to pick up the Warrant from the Governor General, to hold an election. Probably 21 May because Easter is going to intrude on the politicking next week, and there has to be an election by the third week of May.

    There was a soccer mum in a Toyota with a bunch of kids heading to Sunday sport, who must have looked in her rear view mirror , saw the Prime Minister’s BMW with its flag and sped up a little to stay ahead. She had a Labor bumper sticker and had a huge smile as she turned off on John Russell Drive and gave the press the ‘royal wave’ as she left the PM’s group of cars
    Gotta luv the politics of the thing!

    This election is one of the most important for SchMo to win. If he can hold onto the Treasury Benches Labor will self implode for the next decade! It’s all about the Independents now!

    Then a trip to Argentina by the Wallabies in August

    vs. Las Pumas 7 August at San Juan in Argentina
    vs. Las Pumas 15 August at Mendoza Stadium

    I think the Argies will be ‘dog tucker’ but playing with home town advantage you never know!

    England have a good crew and will give the Wallabies a run for their money. It’s Northern Hemisphere Rugby being more attuned to the new interpret ion of the rules, especially if the referee ‘swallows his whistle’ blows up the game and starts using red cards for rough play and head knocks by the Aussies.

    If you read the story, it’s a big nothingburger. 1315 democrats have switched to Republican in a county where they lead registration 790K to 150K roughly, still an 8 to 1 democrat advantage. If it where 130,000 democrats switching or even 13,000, maybe there’s something there. Just means the Republican, if he runs there, is only going to get trounced 7:1 instead of 8:1.

    Chris’ biopsy went well on Wednesday. A hair thin flexible biopsy probe did its thing seamlessly and worked its way between all of the blood supply to sample the mass. The cancer was located on the bottom end of the pancreas and the ultra sound probe in Chris’ stomach made a 3D image of the blood supply. The cancer appears to NOT be getting much if any blood supply yet. So far looks good news for surgery and then a plan for follow on tactics. The liver is not too much of a worry just yet and they figure that they can handle that with the new O2 tech they have .

    Chris remains pretty sanguine as only Chris can be sanguine! He’s had a lifetime of practice!

    Actually it is shocking that the app was allowed on Apple. Apple is very bad about not allowing things in their store that don’t meet their “standards”. Google for all their faults (and they are many) pretty much has allowed android to run like the wild west. Apple has been known to reject apps for political reasons. Android has allowed apps of all political types to flourish. They are very hands off. Too much in some ways, there has been a plague of virus apps lately.

    If you end up showing micro clots get onto your doctor and sort it out quickly. These days cardiologists can craft a nickel memory alloy plug to block off an unused heart pocket where most clots originate. Non invasive surgery. They make a plug to fit your heart, collapse it into a probe that enters your body through the femoral artery slips up into your heart and implants the memory alloy plug in the cavity. The whole thing takes a few hours and is non intrusive.

    I think this is good news. As noted upthread the Fairfax County School /TJ race based admissions policy has gone to SCOTUS under and ‘Emergency Application’

    Chief Justice Roberts is not kicking the can down the road. Yet.

    With Roberts’ action, the school board has until Wednesday to present its response. The chief justice would then decide on the application, which includes referring the case to the full court.

    “We’re very happy to see that he called for a response from the school board,” said Glenn E. Roper, an attorney representing Coalition for TJ, the group challenging the policy. “We hope the court will take our application seriously and hopefully grant it so that the discriminatory policy won’t be enforced for this application season.”

    but Roberts is an institutionalist, so this may mean nothing

    That’s what medical insurance is for mate.The Public System eventually gets around to you for free but you’ll probably dead by the time that happens so, you insure yourself, and even get your own hospital room. Got one scheme for run of the mill stuff GP visits some tests, and physio and such and get 60% back, but the insurance is really cheap as I joined it as part of an employment scheme You even get 60% off holiday destinations as an additional perk.
    Government pays for any medications for $5 per scripting and for free after you hit $150 for a year. Family operations and hospital cover is pricy but worth it at $700 a month. Had my eyes done, my shoulder fixed, my knee fixed and the odd hospital stay over the years. Contemplating getting a heart plug to lower clotting risk, and we are still waaaaay out ahead of the insurance company. If I wanted to have it done in the Public System for free (by the same surgeon actually) I’d have to wait 5 years on a list, but this way I can decide when it’s right for me and get it done immediately. It’ll cost $40k so I figure that is the same as getting free Insurance for the next 5 years.

    What sort of figure does it cost for comprehensive for a family in the US?

    But Bolivians hate strawberries, which makes them perfect employees for picking strawberries. So this mean old man bans all Bolivians from his site and also got any with Bolivians everywhere. Soooo? As Bolivians hate strawberries what difference did it make to the Bolivians?

    All the Bolivians had to do is visit the Witches’ Market in downtown La Paz, order up some ‘eye of newt’ and Leg of frog , a dash of wing of bat, dance about the slum muttering a Bolivian spell and Voila, the nasty old man gets a wart on all of his typing fingers.

    Also Bolivians are hard working people that all go to bed early.

    Which means during the dark hours of the night their proxy servers are idle.

    Also meaning that anyone using a Bolivian proxy server during the night has it all to themselves.

    And it is as fast as shit off a chrome shovel.
