The cyclones are 4 point dogs. This is always an excellent game, the Cyclones cover.

 

  @  4 Michigan
8:00 PM

THe Rainbow Warriors are 52 point dogs on the road…52? OK, they stink but jeeze! They cover.

 

  @  12 Florida

    Apologies for not having much – anything – to say about football. Could not care less. But this….

    How many times have I said Q/QAnon was a false flag op?

    Yeah. General Michael Flynn gets it.

    “I raise this because… I really do believe that it [the QAnon movement] is some type of government campaign. Maybe it’s being done by … ultra-government organizations, you know, that are working on behalf of it.”

    I grew up having Christmas holidays at The Entrance with my cousins and aunt and uncle, at Tugerrah Lakes about 100 Km North of Sydney. We used to float on a huge tractor tube down the entry between the lakes and the sea entrance driving dozens of fishermen crazy and tangling their lines.

    Typical State False Flag exercise to shake the crazy tree and dislodge assorted nutters, penetrate their organisational structure and feed in false information to tar everyone associated with false flaggers as the ‘Enemy of the State’ .

    Anon has been suspect from the get-go as a government PsyOps operation, to ID and destroy any and all opposition.

    And who didn’t see this coming? Idiot

    Who must feel like the biggest fool in Washington, right now?

    Probably Sen. Joe Manchin, the independent-minded Democrat from the bright red state of West Virginia, who cut a deal with his fellow Democrats on the “Inflation Reduction Act,” gave them his vote with conditions — and is now getting stiffed.

    More than 70 House Democrats are signing on to a letter pressing Democratic leaders to not include a side deal with Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on reforming the permit process for energy projects in a bill funding the government.

    And here’s a passage from Lee Harris’s Civilization And Its Enemies.

    Forgetfulness occurs when those who have been long inured to civilized order can no longer remember a time in which they had to wonder whether their crops would grow to maturity without being stolen or their children sold into slavery by a victorious foe.

    They forget that in time of danger, in the face of the Enemy, they must trust and confide in each other, or perish.

    They forget, in short, that there has ever been a category of human experience called the Enemy. And that, before 9/11, was what had happened to us. The very concept of the Enemy had been banished from our moral and political vocabulary. An enemy was just a friend we hadn’t done enough for — yet. Or perhaps there had been a misunderstanding, or an oversight on our part — something that we could correct. And this means that that our first task is that we must try to grasp what the concept of the Enemy really means.

    The Enemy is someone who is willing to die in order to kill you. And while it is true that the Enemy always hates us for a reason — it is his reason, and not ours.

    I had to remind him that he’s the one who fucked us over on the Benghazi report.

    I remember that people used to cite him as a prosecutor who never lost a case.

    I spent a lot of time reminding people about prosecutorial discretion, that there were probably some tough cases he ignored to preserve his score. He went after the easy wins.

    Qantas To Phase Out Passengers…

    Qantas to phase out passengers, in new plan to improve service.
    In a new strategy that it says will slash wait times at airports and eliminate lost luggage completely, national carrier Qantas announced today that it will begin to phase out passengers on flights, with a zero-passenger target set for 2025.
    CEO Alan Joyce likened the move to the removal of smoking from aircraft in the 1980s, and said the plan was the result of a top-to-bottom review of Qantas’s service. “We’re always looking for ways to remove inefficiencies from the system so we can offer a more streamlined, frictionless service. When we looked closely at what was slowing us down, again and again it came back to one thing – passengers”.
    Joyce said responding to customer feedback was central to developing the new plan. “Our customers told us they get frustrated when their baggage ends up in a different city. They told us it’s unfeasible to wait on hold for 8-hours to speak to our call centre. By removing passengers from the equation, we’re confident these issues will become a thing of the past. We’ve listened, we’ve heard, we’re acting”.
    The CEO told shareholders that the plan would eventually lead to greater cost efficiencies, with less reliance on pilots, flight attendants, baggage carriers, caterers, engineers and airport staff. But he rejected claims the airline didn’t have Australians’ interests in mind. “Change can be scary, but this is about modernising our service for the future. We removed smoking from aircraft in the 1980s and no-one thinks twice about that now. This is no different”.
    Qantas will receive $1.5 billion in federal government funding to assist with the transition.

    Knowing of QANTAS’ CEO Alan Joyce’s past excesses and oh so PC bullshit, I am actually wondering that this was NOT written tongue in cheek!

    *sigh*

    What in the world are they planning to do on September 24th, 2022? As you will see below, a member of the German legislature is openly warning that September 24th will be a day when everyone will remember “exactly where he or she was”. Needless to say, those days don’t come along very often. For those that were alive at the time, the death of John F. Kennedy was one of those days. And certainly 9/11 was one of those days. But off the top of my head I can’t really think of too many others. I can remember what I was doing when Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine earlier this year was definitely a major turning point. Beyond that, there just aren’t too many days that fall into this category.

    That is why something that a member of the German parliament just said seems so odd…

    “Everyone will not forget September 24, 2022 and everyone will know exactly where he or she was”

    the CRNA is a certified registered nurse anesthitist.

    a ‘practioner of medicine’ under the direction of an MD who can autonomously do anesthesia without the MD anesthesiologist at the bedside (but, in the building and available)

    yes, these crna’s can be sued and must carry insurance.

    the article is a bit of hyperbole.

    Here’s something else I didn’t know. The iconic Clapton piece, Layla, written for Pattie Boyd, was actually based on a Persian love poem.

    A paean to unrequited love, the song served was inspired by a love story that originated in 7th-century Arabia and later formed the basis of the 12-century Persian tome The Story of Layla and Majnun, a copy of which playwright Ian Dallas gave to Clapton.

    The book – which details a tale of a young man who falls hopelessly in love with a beautiful young girl who doesn’t immediately return his affection

    You know, I don’t think this would pass muster before SCOTUS. This may be an international body and not a gov’t, but this is obviously a ‘weapons’ list being built by an entity with no obligation to the unalienable rights acknowledged in our Constitution.

    If those rights are indeed unalienable, then SCOTUS has better stand firm. And the court has already ruled that the gov’t may not outsource unconstitutional efforts to 3rd parties.

    More information is coming out about this new credit card code for gun and ammo sales:

    Democratic lawmakers including Sens. Elizabeth Warren and Dianne Feinstein just sent a letter to the CEO of American Express pressuring the company to start monitoring gun purchases. They essentially want the credit card company to create a special category for gun purchases — right now they’re categorized as “miscellaneous retail stores” — and use that information to report people to the police.

    “Banks and credit card companies could help law enforcement preempt some mass shootings by identifying suspicious gun purchases through the implementation of a new MCC,” the lawmakers wrote. “MCCs are four-digit codes maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that classify merchants by their purpose of business.”

    The blowback from this is going to be interesting.

    FFLs don’t “report” gun sales to anyone. They’re required to keep perpetual records of every sale or other transfer, and the ATF can inspect those records at any time. When they go out of business, their records have to be turned over to the ATF.

    This new credit card code thing seems to be the creation of a new merchant category, specifically for gun stores. Most gun sellers are probably currently categorized as sporting goods stores or something similar.

    This is the “enemies are just people we haven’t made friends with yet” theme thru a different prism. Humans deny disasters – until they can’t.

    A World on Fire

    very day, news reporters, traders, and workers of all sorts the world over wake to do their work as they always have. Part of that requires that everyone pretend that life is normal, fixable, and more or less stable. All of this is temporary. It will come and go and really not be that bad.

    Strange, isn’t it? Human beings have a hard time adjusting to disaster, in their decision-making and even in their mindset. Reporters have to do their jobs as they are trained. Traders too. Everyone does. They please their bosses. They don’t sound alarms. They don’t scream and yell as they probably should.

    But there is a moment in the day when the work is done and perhaps a cocktail comes out or the dishes are washed and the kids are in bed and the room falls silent. At this moment, millions and billions of people the world over know it. Disaster is all around us. We are just pretending otherwise, simply because this is what we have to do.

The other take is he knew that what he “negotiated” was never going to be put in place but would give him plausible deniability in the next election to be able to say, “I negotiated for our best interests but was stiffed by other lawmakers from other states.

    King Charles Replaces Harry & Meghan With Two Corgis In Line Of Succession

    In his first official royal decree, King Charles has replaced Meghan and Harry in the line of succession with two of the late Queen’s corgis.

    “Fluffy here shall immediately assume the title of Duke,” said Charles, presenting the corgi with a scepter. “There now! Who’s a good future King of England?”

    The nation of England erupted into celebration upon hearing the news. “After the sadness of the past week, it feels good to have something to be happy about,” said citizen Gerald Funderburk. “The thought of the monarchy falling into the hands of Harry or Meghan, those blithering idiots…we can all rest a little easier tonight knowing the kingdom will be in good hands. Or paws.”

    Although the King’s move is unusual, historians say it is not without precedent. “Few people recall that Henry the Eighth actually made his pet goat sixth in line for the throne,” said history professor Benjamin York. “He had so many wives and children that he lost count of how to list them. He was also very, very fond of his goat Alfred.”

    At publishing time, Meghan Markle had responded with her daily tradition of calling everyone in her family racist.

Come to think of it, I’ve dumped 3 authors. Thor, Winslow – and God help me – one of the best writers ever – Daniel Silva.

    Silva wrote fantastic thrillers about a Mossad assassin, Gabriel Allon, who was an art restorer as his day job. Then came The Cellist. A really weak plot that I thought MUST have surprise ending. Well. It did. All anti-Trump. The amazon reviews were SCATHING. His new one has come out (every July like clockwork) and he’s dropped his whole theme.

    FBI Concerned That If MAGA Doesn’t Conduct A Terrorist Attack Soon They’ll Have To Fake One

    After weeks of unsuccessfully stoking Trump supporters towards violent action, the FBI has changed course, beginning internal discussions for executing a MAGA-style attack using FBI resources.

    “We are already at Defense Readiness Condition 3 – this means that if the extreme MAGA wing doesn’t act, we will bypass the plainclothes agent phase to DefCon 1, bringing out our biggest weapon: Ray Epps.” FBI Director Christopher Wray addressed a round table of defense ministers, eliciting scattered gasps when he invoked Ray Epps, the famous FBI asset with expertise in starting insurrections.

    The attempts to get “MAGA Republicans” to commit terrorism have escalated in recent weeks. The gentle initial prodding of the Mar-A-Lago raid failed to evoke a riot, and the prodding was then escalated to a speech by Biden with obvious fascist overtones attacking Trump supporters, finally culminating in the raiding of over 50 Trump ally homes last week. “If that doesn’t do it, what will?” said Wray.

    Critics have contended that there is no widespread evidence of the FBI’s history of supporting and propagating terrorism to justify crackdowns on the current administration’s political enemies. Ted Cruz, however, has asked pointed questions about FBI involvement in perpetrating the events of January 6, and Cruz asked Justice Department representatives whether the FBI was involved. The FBI has provided a comprehensive answer to Cruz, saying “Shut up.”

    At publishing time, several dozen military-age males with crew cuts had shown up in attendance to an “election justice” rally of Trump supporters but were sadly outed as Feds and given swirlies and wedgies.

    Doctor pulls off ‘likely the world’s first’ electric car-powered vasectomy

    Electric cars are known for their lower fuel costs, emission reduction and, apparently, powering vasectomies.

    Dr. Christopher Yang, a urologist from Austin, Texas, revealed his unique solution to performing a vasectomy at his clinic after the power went out — using his Rivian R1T truck.

    Yang had rescheduled other appointments when the outage hit on Aug. 25, and was set to do the same for the vasectomy when a colleague jokingly suggested doing the procedure using Yang’s pickup truck as a backup power source, per NPR affiliate WGLT.

    Futhermore, Yang said his patient didn’t want to reschedule because he’d already taken time off of work for the procedure, so he agreed to go through with it despite the novel power source.

    Yang powered his operation by running an extension cord from the carpark all the way to the patient’s room.

    WASHINGTON — When John Durham was assigned by the Justice Department in 2019 to examine the origins of the investigation into the 2016 Trump campaign’s ties to Russia, President Donald Trump and his supporters expressed a belief that the inquiry would prove that a “deep state” conspiracy including top Obama-era officials had worked to sabotage him.

    Now Durham appears to be winding down his three-year inquiry without anything close to the results Trump was seeking. The grand jury that Durham has recently used to hear evidence has expired, and while he could convene another, there are currently no plans to do so, three people familiar with the matter said.

    Durham and his team are working to complete a final report by the end of the year, they said, and one of the lead prosecutors on his team is leaving for a job with a prominent law firm.

    How four private groups used their clout to control the global Covid response — with little oversight

    The largest and most powerful was the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, one of the largest philanthropies in the world. Then there was Gavi, the global vaccine organization that Gates helped to found to inoculate people in low-income nations, and the Wellcome Trust, a British research foundation with a multibillion dollar endowment that had worked with the Gates Foundation in previous years. Finally, there was the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, or CEPI, the international vaccine research and development group that Gates and Wellcome both helped to create in 2017.

    Why Railroad Workers Like Me Are Planning to Strike This Friday | Opinion

    https://www.newsweek.com/why-railroad-workers-like-me-are-planning-strike-this-friday-opinion-1742513

    In the last few years, the railroad companies have mounted an assault on labor, costing livelihoods and sacrificing worker safety to a point where we just can’t go on.

    For starters, railroad companies have adopted something called “positive train control” or PTC for short. PTC is basically autopilot for trains. It’s a great piece of technology, but since adopting it, companies have decided that the conductor role is obsolete, and you just need an engineer to take care of the train. In an effort to save money, the railroads have been pushing for a single-man crew the last few years, with the biggest freight railroads reducing staff by 29 percent.

    I’m all for better technology. But it has to be safe. And there’s a big problem with eliminating the role of the conductor. One of the major things the conductor does is if there is an issue with the train, some sort of defect with a railcar, say, the conductor goes out and checks what the issue is while the engineer stays in the cab to control the train.

    Biden’s dirty deal sold out Haitian democracy for migrant deportations, former envoy says

    The Biden administration scuttled Haiti’s plans for free elections and backed a de facto dictator in exchange for his willingness to accept deportees, America’s former envoy to the country says.

    Daniel Foote, the Biden- appointed former US special envoy to Haiti, says the administration has supported Dr. Ariel Henry — who took power as both acting prime minister and acting president after the assassination of President Jovenel Moise — because he was willing to accept Haitian migrants who have rushed the US border.

    https://nypost.com/2022/09/14/biden-sold-out-haitian-democracy-for-a-migrant-deal-ex-envoy/

    I don’t understand the game. Leave our borders wide open so Haitians can walk in, kill an election in Haiti to install a dictator who will accept the Haitians we want to deport – but we’re not deporting anybody?

    I hope I don’t look as stupid as I feel, cuz I really don’t get this.

    https://seekingalpha.com/news/3883258-fedex-stock-sinks-12-postmarket-as-volume-softness-leads-to-q1-earnings-miss

    FedEx (NYSE:FDX) stock sank 12% postmarket on Thursday after the firm reported prelim. Q1 results that widely missed estimates, hurt by global volume softness that worsened in the final weeks of the quarter.

    FDX also withdrew its FY23 earnings forecast.

    The company expects Q1 adj. EPS of $3.44, well below consensus estimate of $5.14. Q1 revenue is projected to be $23.2B vs. consensus estimate of $23.52B.

    FedEx Express results in Q1 were hit by macroeconomic weakness in Asia and service challenges in Europe, resulting in revenue shortfall of ~$500M relative to FDX’s outlook. FedEx Ground revenue was ~$300M below its forecast.

    Wave Of German Insolvencies Picks Up Speed…”Tenfold Increase in Gas, Electricity Prices”

    Blackout News here reports toilet paper maker Hakle has filed for insolvency, citing “increased energy costs”.

    “With a tenfold increase in gas and electricity prices, which we had to accept within a few months, we are no longer competitive in a market that is 25% supplied by imports. We see an urgent need for political action to get energy prices under control immediately,” said Reiner Blaschek, CEO of ArcelorMittal Germany (Financial Market World).

    Another industry sector facing extreme hardship is the bakery industry, which relies heavily of affordable energy. According to Blackout News: “For bakeries, the energy crisis is now worse than the Corona pandemic, according to industry sources. ‘We have the problem as a micro baker that we have to adjust our prices to the raw material and energy prices, of course, which also burdens the customer, if he is also a bit tighter on cash,’ says an affected baker from Heilbronn.”

    One baker in our local area has seen his monthly gas bills go from 3000 euros earlier this year to 11,000 euros!

It’s only silicates (fine sands) NOT asbestos. The only danger is cutting the sheets with power saws when a lot of s\dust is produced. Otherwise the product is totally stable.

    nature has an intelligence about stuff like that. He’ll produce an unintended consequence that balances nature out against him.

    I think the coal miners who built this town in the 1890s would be totally amazed by what it’s become

    Not a big James Brown fan, but it worked.

    Now I’m waiting to get into the late night venue. It’s a separate ticket

    Because I’m bred in the bone Appalachian white trash – and proud of it – I love the Meghan Markel gossip. This is the best soap opera on the planet since King Henry the VIII beheaded Anne Boleyn.

    Harry and Meghan just got their sorry asses uninvited to a big soiree at Buckingham Palace.

    Working Royals only. And you two bugged out. Buh-bye.

    His backup bands were the hardest working bands in show business, and Butane James treated them like crap. Maceo Parker was the best soul/funk sax player ever.

    @ lobo91:
    I don’t remember the story exactly:
    In the early 60s, James Brown was moving up the charts, and The Flames wanted a bigger cut of the action. Brown brushed them off, told them they were a dime a dozen. At the next gig, the Flames showed up to play and found that a new back up band was set up on stage. Cold.
