Mississippi’s Capitol Police Department, created to protect state buildings, has become Jackson’s de facto second police department.
During the past year, Capitol Police has doubled in size to almost 120 officers and expanded its reach into an 8.7-square-mile zone of Jackson called the “Capitol Complex Improvement Zone.” This is where the former capitol security force now sets up traffic checkpoints, combats street crime and even investigates homicides.
Jackson, however, still has its city-run police force, the Jackson Police Department.
That whole thing seems to have dropped off the radar

Jenna Ellis, a former attorney for Donald Trump’s reelection campaign and a prominent conservative media figure, has been censured by Colorado legal officials after admitting she made repeated false statements about the 2020 presidential election.
Ellis acknowledged making 10 “misrepresentations” on television and Twitter during Trump’s fight to stay in power after losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden, according to the censure from the office of attorney regulation counsel in Colorado, where Ellis is from. The statements include claiming on Jeanine Pirro’s Fox News show on Dec. 5, 2020 that “we have over 500,000 votes (in Arizona) that were cast illegally” and telling the conservative network Newsmax on Dec. 15 that Trump was “the true and proper victor.”

China’s Cutting-Edge Chip Dreams Just Died
The Dutch government has confirmed that it will stop the most advanced semiconductor manufacturing machines making their way to China and other countries viewed as an active threat.
As Politico reports(Opens in a new window), an agreement was reached between the US and Netherlands back in January to impose technology export restrictions, but it has taken until now for Dutch officials to work out the details. Yesterday, a letter was published(Opens in a new window) by Dutch Foreign Trade Minister Liesje Schreinemacher confirming export licenses will be required for certain categories of Dutch technology.
Although China isn’t mentioned specifically, the focus of the export controls is clearly on chip manufacturing, with Schreinemacher stating in the letter: “Given the technological developments and geopolitical context, the government has concluded that it is necessary for the (inter)national security to expand the existing export controls on specific manufacturing equipment for semiconductors.”

Prince Harry Joins Aspen Institute Misinformation Commission Following Media Struggles With Meghan

I don’t know if you watched any of his interviews following the publication of part one of his cri di coeur SPARE but he said that it is his intent to curtail the freedom of the press in the UK. (He’s absolutely convinced, against all evidence to the contrary, that the paparazzi killed his mother.)
He’s also called our first amendment ‘bonkers’
And Meghan makes a tiresome habit of suing the media in the UK. Sometimes she wins (their judges are just as cowardly as ours), even when she admits in legal documents that she lied.
So, this is just and FYI/PSA.
Yeah, there will be a crash and burn and it will probably be EPIC. But in the meantime, keep an eye out.

Over the last decade, China has steadily increased its lead. In 2019, Chinese universities produced 49,498 PhDs in STEM fields, while U.S. universities produced 33,759. Based on current enrollment patterns, the report projects that by 2025 China’s yearly STEM PhD graduates (77,179) will nearly double those in the United States (39,959).

Fifth Circuit appellate judge Stuart Kyle Duncan, who was shouted down by Stanford Law School students as administrators looked on in silence, says the protesters behaved like “dogshit.”
Now, in an interview with the Washington Free Beacon, Duncan is calling on the school to discipline the students who disrupted his talk and to fire the school’s associate dean of diversity, equity, and inclusion, who stepped in during the event to chastise him and deliver what the judge described as a “bizarre therapy session from hell.”
Duncan’s remarks come after nearly a hundred students at Stanford Law School disrupted his remarks in brazen violation of Stanford University’s free speech policies.
One source of the students’ ire was Duncan’s refusal, in a 2020 opinion, to use a transgender sex offender’s preferred pronouns.

I worked with – and in one case actually hired, I’ll call her ‘H’ – software developers who had been educated in mainland China universities.
With one exception, they sucked.
They were TERRIFIED of creative thinking. They thought they were being set up to be fired. For anybody new, in their probationary period, I worked up the business rules and walked them thru the design process, blah blah blah. Which was fine.
But if you want to advance, you need to be able to figure out the business rules yourself, i.e., the problem/issue the software you are supposed to write addresses.
And they ALL went into meltdown. Because if no one told them what to do then everything was going to be their fault. None of them had any clue about how to work on their own volition.
‘H’ was so badly ‘infected’ she went to HR and told them she had had a miscarriage because I wouldn’t help her.
HR called my manager and said she needed to speak to me.
My manager told HR to fuck off yesterday and fired ‘H’.

Yellen warns U.S. House members of ‘economic collapse’ from default
WASHINGTON, March 10 (Reuters) – U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen urged members of the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday to raise the federal debt ceiling without conditions, warning that a default on U.S. debt would cause “economic and financial collapse.”
Yellen, in budget testimony before the Republican-controlled House Ways and Means Committee, said that failure to increase the $31.4 trillion borrowing cap would threaten the economic progress that the U.S. has made since the COVID-19 pandemic.

Interesting story from Meygn Kelly podcast.
Santa Clara’s aggressive stance can be traced back to August 11, 2020, when the county established a “civil enforcement program” for its public health orders. As part of the program, a Business Compliance Unit was created, composed of as many as ten or more enforcement officers, tasked with investigating potential violations of the health department’s orders.
They surveilled the church from a neighboring church. Then started being present in all church activities. And geo fenced the church so they could track all cell phones going and leaving church property. Almost gets to a waco like situation. Good think the ATF was never called.

This is the Aspen Institute’s recommendations on speech. Harry (and Katie Couric) were on the team
14. The Woodstock of the Censorship-Industrial Complex came when the Aspen Institute – which receives millions a year from both the State Department and USAID – held a star-studded confab in Aspen in August 2021 to release its final report on “Information Disorder.”
15. The report was co-authored by Katie Couric and Chris Krebs, the founder of the DHS’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA). Yoel Roth of Twitter and Nathaniel Gleicher of Facebook were technical advisors. Prince Harry joined Couric as a Commissioner.
16. Their taxpayer-backed conclusions: the state should have total access to data to make searching speech easier, speech offenders should be put in a “holding area,” and government should probably restrict disinformation, “even if it means losing some freedom.”

Cody and I have been off grid at Death Valley since Friday. Absolutely no cell or wifi anywhere.
On the way into the park, we came across several rock slides on the road. I thought I dodged all of them, but there were some hidden underwater at a dip in the road. I damaged something in the front end of the SUV. Of course, with no communication and the nearest real civilization 100 miles away, there wasn’t much I could do about it. I limped into Las Vegas this morning. Hopefully they can fix it today.
Last night, we had a 12 hour dust storm with 50 mph winds. Made for an interesting night. The entire trailer is covered in a layer of sand. Cody thought we were going to end up in Oz.

The whole von Batenberg crew of ‘krauts’ who changed their name to Windsor back during WWI are a shower. The only one worth her salt was Liz II. The rest were deeply flawed as were the rest of the extended family including Uncle Willy who was a nutter who should have been hanged after starting WWI. The only reason why he wasn’t was because it would have set a precedent. The Bolsheviks weren’t as nervous and shot all the Russian family line. Ed the senior was a rake who probably died of syphilis and the Georges were total non events. Edward hooked up with that American bitch Simpson and George VI did his best but didn’t really set the world on fire and smoked himself to death. Then there was Liz and Phil the Greek. Liz grew into the job and Phil was the ‘light relief’. Their kids were all damaged goods with the exception of Ed who managed to side step. Chuckles is a terrible king but at least he maintains the family reputation for getting it wrong (with the exception of LizII). Chuckles kids are mostly non events with Harry as the new ‘dodgy one’. Given his temperament and ‘the ginger’ it’s obvious that Diana left the door to Clarance house open at night while she was increasingly estranged from Chuckles.
In fact there is a cattleman in Oz who has a stronger claim to the Brit throne than any of Victoria’s brood of miscreants.

I will defend Wallis to my last breath.
Leaving aside for the moment the motives and psychology of Edward VIII, Wallis never wanted to marry him nor to be Queen. She DID expect to be mistress of the Prince of Wales – and maybe even the King – until he tired of her, as had been his pattern. She was comfortably married, had no intention of leaving that cozy life. The affair with Edward was a feather in her social cap AND DON’T FORGET THE JEWELRY. She was fond of him, she never loved him. He was needy, weak, a pain in the ass narcissist.
She was forbidden access to Buckingham Palace. Edward brought her anyway. She said the Duchess of York (later Queen Consort Elizabeth and Queen mother) was dowdy and frumpy (she was, trust me). Unfortunately, Elizabeth overheard her. She never forgave it.
The other thing Elizabeth never forgave – Wallis got Edward. Elizabeth turned down Bertie (King George VI) 3 times because SHE WANTED THE TOP SPOT. She was going for Edward. Well, she wasn’t Edward’s type. She got nowhere and settled for the Duke of York.

AFAIK, no studies have been done on what that disorder does to the child in the womb and afterwards. In any event, Harry has had a monstrous temper from his first breath. He is known to abuse animals including horses and rabbits. Rumors abound that women have not be exempt, but wherever that comes from is buried deep.
I think Charles will be a fairly decent monarch. Maybe an excellent one. He knows how to play the long game (see ‘Camilla’) and he is resilient.
William has good judgement for the most part (don’t get me started on climate change). He was smart enough to recognize Catherine and her family as good people and marry her/them. He appears to be a superb father and has enough of his ego in check to submit to duty. Which is a mark of an adult, regardless of one’s role in life. It’s never about you. It’s about how you step up to whatever it is you’re given to do. He caught on to Meghan before anyone else, btw. He will never allow Harry back into the fold as long as that limpet is attached, and maybe not even then.

After receiving a recommendation from the boards of the FDIC and the Federal Reserve, and consulting with the President, Secretary Yellen approved actions enabling the FDIC to complete its resolution of Silicon Valley Bank, Santa Clara, California, in a manner that fully protects all depositors. Depositors will have access to all of their money starting Monday, March 13. No losses associated with the resolution of Silicon Valley Bank will be borne by the taxpayer.

Well like the major characters encompassed within the Bible stories each one in one way or another were operating at a node. Moses certainly was as his leadership certainly drew a line under the Jews’ Egyptian story. It exposed them a final time to the local cultist throwbacks and advanced their eventual arrival at the passes into the Promised Land that was going to be the location of their total future. Having completed that task Moses had completed his task and was thereafter ‘out of a job’. The Node had been passed. The new Age had been entered. The finger of Jewish history had moved on and a new generation had stood up.
…… I read the other day something that stuck with me. Despair is a liar…….. That would presuppose that Hope springs eternal. Despair is not the final stage of a lack of Hope. Despair can be replaced by a next powerful step. Acceptance and bravery, that impart tremendous power and resolve. When there is no Hope left, there is nothing left to loose and options expand tremendously. Power and resolve replaces despair as it bleeds away and is replaces with peacefulness and steely resolve. I’ve been there twice before and it’s a liberating powerful feeling. The fear evaporates and the peace descends and the determination expands. One’s senses also become razor sharp and time seems to slow remarkably.
It’s quite amazing and almost pleasurable.
Afterwards, when the worse doesn’t happen, and you are mainlining adrenaline and you have the shakes…. it’s a different story.

2,500-Year-Old Booze Brewed Up From Recipe Found In Iron Age Burial
Bones, ancient grooming tools, even gold – these are all things you might expect to find if you go poking around an Iron Age burial site. What you might not expect to find is your new favorite tipple. But, back in 2016, archaeologists were stunned to uncover a 2,500-year-old cauldron that contained the remnants of an ancient alcoholic beverage.
Project lead Bettina Arnold, from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, was investigating a burial mound – called a tumulus – dating back to between 400 and 450 BCE, when she and her team came across what appeared to be a bronze cauldron. But it wasn’t only the vessel itself that was largely intact.
“We actually were able, ultimately, to derive at least some sense of what the contents were in a bronze cauldron,” Arnold told NPR.
That contents amounted to nearly 14 liters (3.7 gallons) of an unknown alcoholic beverage, that had been buried along with the occupant of the tumulus.

@ eaglesoars:
OK
I usually just throw this together as I’m waiting for the Rhubarb to cook .
soften about 75 gm of butter (hack off a goodly hunk of butter about 1/2 ” thick off the end of a pound of butter
throw it in a bowl
add about 1/2 cup of brown sugar (you can vary the sugar by balancing the sweetness of the cooking rhubarb to get it just sweet enough by balancing the sweetness of the rhubarb and the crumble… the secret is to keep the sugar in the crumble balanced with the sugar added to the cooking Rhubarb)
Get your hands into the bowl
Squish about a cup of wholemeal flour into the butter
add a teaspoon of vanilla
add a cup of rolled oats and squish that together through your fingers as well
add a half cup of coconut
add a teaspoon of baking powder
add a tablespoon of either honey or golden syrup ( I don’t do that as I don’t like it too sweet)
Squeeze it between your fingers until it’s totally mixed. It should be a solid ball in the bowl and it should be dry enough to fall to bits when you break off a chunk and break it apart. I add a wee bit more rolled oats if it’s too soft or a wee bit more soft butter if it’s too dry. It’s got to be able to be broken up over the Rhubarb and berries
Talking of which … use some scissors to snip off half a dozen large rhubarb stalks. Snip off the leaves … which are poisonous and boil these up in an OLD pot to make insect spray to spray on your flowers to kill the bugs …. don’t use this pot for anything else!!!!) Snip the Rhubarb stalks into 1″ pieces add 2 table spoon of water to a pot and chuck the cut up rhubarb in and cook carefully so that they don’t stick (the rhubarb will make their own liquid and the table spoon of water is just to get them under way and to stop them burning until they can start making their own fluid).
Stir in some brown sugar once the cooking is underway ( for a dozen stalks I normally use about half a cup of brown sugar) it also depends on how sweet your berries are. Make the rhubarb plus berries slightly tart and use the crumble to bring the degree of sweetness to the dish.
Once the rhubarb has cooked chuck in about two handfulls of berries and stir and turn down the heat. The berries cook quickly when The admixture should be slightly tart and NOT overly sweet. (OH BY THE WAY you can use green rhubarb stalks as well as red ones. Green rhubarb stalks can be ripe as well as red ones.)
Pour the whole admixture into a pie dish. Grab the crumble mix and crumble it over the top of the rhubarb and berry mix. covering the whole surface. Place the oven proof dish into an oven at about 180C (350F) until the topping crumble is browned. It won’t take long maybe 20 minutes tops.
I normally make it by the handful and slosh method , mix it by hand squeezing it between my fingers until I get it to the consistency I want it, and it turns out just fine. Balancing the sugar so that the rhubarb is still just on the edge of tart before adding berries and using their natural sweetness to balance it up is best. Getting that sweet tart balance just right is important and then using the sweet crumble to bring the sweetness to the table is definitely the way to go.
Enjoy!

Megyn Kelly today. There is an undercurrent of progressives that are trying to transition the sex of conservative children in schools without telling the parents. They will do liberal kids also but like to advocate against the bigotry of conservative parents who want to raise their own kids.
One can go into the twitter of feed of any conservative who speaks against trans for minors and see a large wave of the mentally unstable left.
I say if all this trans stuff is really true then let it happen to kids.
Think Darwin. If these kids are genetically predisposed to change their sex then they will be unable to breed.
A big win in my opinion.

Scientists Confirm the Incredible Existence of Time Reflections
Story by Darren Orf
For more than 50 years, scientists theorized that an electromagnetic wave could be reflected temporally—not just spatially.
Scientists have been unable to confirm the existence of time reflection due to the amount of energy required to create a temporal interface.
Using an engineered metamaterial scientists in New York City were able to successfully observe time reflections for the first time.
The explanation of spatial reflections—whether by light or by sound—are pretty intuitive. Electromagnetic radiation in the form of light or sound waves hit a mirror or wall, respectively, and change course. This allows our eyes to see a reflection or echo of the original input. However, for more than 50 years, scientists have theorized that there’s another kind of reflection in quantum mechanics known as time reflection.
This term might conjure up images of a nuclear-powered DeLorean or a particular police box (that’s bigger on the inside), but that’s not quite what scientists mean by the term. Instead, time reflections occur when the entire medium in which an electromagnetic wave travels suddenly changes course. This causes a portion of that wave to reverse and its frequency transforms into another one.
Because these time reflections require a uniform variation across an entire electromagnetic field, scientists assumed it would require too much energy to actually observe time reflections in action. But scientists from the Advanced Science Research Center at the CUNY Graduate Center (CUNY ASRC) in New York City successfully observed time reflections by sending broadband signals into a strip of metal filled with electronic switches that were connected to reservoir capacitors.
This allowed the researchers to trigger the switches at will, doubling impedance along the strip. This sudden change caused the signals to carry a successful time-reversed copy. The results were published in the journal Nature Physics.
“It is very difficult to change the properties of a medium quick enough, uniformly, and with enough contrast to time reflect electromagnetic signals because they oscillate very fast,” Gengyu Xu, a co-author and post-doc student at CUNY ASRC, said in a press statement. “Our idea was to avoid changing the properties of the host material, and instead create a metamaterial in which additional elements can be abruptly added or subtracted through fast switches.”
This time reflection also behaves differently than spatial reflections. Because this time echo reflects that last part of the signal first, the researchers say that if you looked in a time mirror, you would see your back instead of your face. To translate the experience acoustically, it’d be like listening to a tape on rewind—which is to say fast and high-pitched.
The shift in frequency, if it could be perceived by our eyes, would look like colors of light suddenly changing to another color, such as red switching to green. This strange counter-intuitive nature of time reflection is part of what has made studying the concept so difficult.
“This has been really exciting to see, because of how long ago this counterintuitive phenomenon was predicted, and how different time-reflected waves behave compared to space-reflected ones,” corresponding author Andrea Alù, a physics professor and director of CUNY ASRC’s Photonics Initiative, said in a statement.
The big question: Why have scientists worked toward recreating this theoretical time reflection in a laboratory? Well, more minute control of electromagnetic waves can vastly improve wireless communications and even lead to advancements in low-energy, wave-based computers.
In other words, it simply helps to know everything there is about electromagnetic waves—both forward and backward.

https://blog.ted.com/the-debate-about-rupert-sheldrakes-talk/
Rupert Sheldrake has been rattling the halls of science again and got himself stabbed for his trouble. Dr. Rupert can be a pain in the arse to the scientific establishment but he certainly knows how to ask those really hard questions that regular scientists would rather gloss over. He does however prevent the scientific community from descending from scientific curiosity into cultish scientism. Dr. Rupert’s stats backed studies into Morphic Resonance keep the feet of the establishment scientists to the flames. Some Japanese scientism cultist tried to silence the good doctor permanently. Fortunately the knife just missed a major artery and he’s still with us and asking those embarrassing questions that the science community don’t like talking about.

In economics, a moral hazard is a situation where an economic actor has an incentive to increase its exposure to risk because it does not bear the full costs of that risk. For example, when a corporation is insured, it may take on higher risk knowing that its insurance will pay the associated costs.

Married patch quasi-western traditional African / Cape Dutch thatched roofed and very laid back and comfortable. Loads of game all around and the odd deep concreted out of sight ditch protection to keep the carnivores separated from the homo sapiens youngerns playing outside.

The Solous Scouts were a special forces outfit that were traditionally Hassars! They rode to battle on horses and then dismounted and fought on foot as a very mobile infantry. Riding horses unlike armoured infantry don’t have to worry about anti armoured minefields, as the ground pressure of a horses’ hoof is less than that of an anti-tank mine.

Well I had a funny text exchange and a short phone conversation with a friend Wednesday evening.
My friend was excited because they got a new job with the same health care provider but in a more challenging department. A transfer from NICU2 to NICU4 whatever that means.
In between text messages from my friend I texted back ” by the way I broke my leg Monday evening”.
No reply to that but a continuation about excitement of a new job.
Just looked at the whole text message exchange again and , laughing, I actually texted THREE times I broke my leg!
I guess the excitement of a new job kind of took priority over A FUCKING BROKEN LEG!!!!
Hey, broken leg no big deal, that is why God gave us two. We have a spare one.
Anyway the up side to having a broken leg is I can’t walk to the store to buy beer!

Never had a bruise.
Still going with the theory I slammed my leg against the bathroom wall and either did it so hard I broke my Fibula or, best case slammed so hard that the impact caused massive swelling and lingering pain that would normally show up as a really colourful bruise in others.
