| Overnight Open Thread (3-29-2012)It's Tough To Be Green These Days Because the bloom is coming off the Global A new Gallup poll reports that Americans are still broadly skeptical of the Green agenda, currently putting economic growth ahead of the environment by 49 percent to 41 percent. And moderates are increasingly joining conservatives in the opinion that economic growth should be a priority even if it incurs some environmental damage. It turns out that Green policies are luxuries that people will indulge in during boom times but not so much in a prolonged recession. Even the young seem to be losing their enthusiasm for environmentalism - well other than as a status symbol signaling refined tastes: [Jean] Twenge found that today's high school seniors and college freshmen make far less effort to help the environment than baby boomers did at that age. Compared with boomers and Generation X-ers, Gen Y-ers are the least willing to cut down on driving and electricity use. "There was a lot more questioning of materialism in the 1970s. Now it's just like, Let's all live like the Kardashians," she said. . . In fact it looks like we already passed Peak AGW concern a few years ago. But don't worry - there'll be a new world-wide environmental crisis coming along any second now.
Oh and don't forget that this Saturday evening will be Human Achievement Hour so get those naughty incandescent bulbs aglowin' and tires aburnin'.
Why is Newt Gingrich Still Called Speaker Gingrich Newt Gingrich can be called many things: garrulous, grandiose, philandering. But one thing he should not be called is "Mr. Speaker." Gingrich ceased to be entitled to that title when he left the House on Jan. 3, 1999. But you would never know it from the obsequious way journalists have addressed him during the campaign, where "Mr. Speaker" and "Speaker Gingrich" have become standard. This is one thing that has always irked me a little - former office-holders keeping their previous title for life. I don't mind the occasional honorific on special occasions but why should we be expected to refer to Barbara Boxer perpetually as Senator Boxer even when she's no longer a senator? It certainly wasn't this way for the original US office-holders: As an exemplar of American unpretentiousness, look to John Quincy Adams. During his remarkable and distinguished career he was our ambassador to the Netherlands, Prussia, Russia, and the United Kingdom. He was a senator, secretary of state, and president. After he finished his presidency, he was elected to the House of Representatives, where he vigorously opposed slavery. Joseph Wheelan, author of Mr. Adams's Last Crusade, about Adams' last 17 years in the House-he died in the Capitol- says that during that entire time this man of many titles was known simply as "Mr. Adams." Yes the Battle of Athens really happened in 1946 and represents one of the few times an armed insurrection was successful in the US. The Mysterious Case of Air Force Major Jill Metzger It's been almost six years since Air Force Major Jill Metzger disappeared from a shopping mall while deployed to Manas AB, Kyrgyzstan in September 2006. Metzger resurfaced a few days later, with an incredible tale of kidnapping, over-powering her abductors and racing almost 30 miles to freedom (the Air Force officer happens to be a champion marathon runner). Yet shortly afterwards it became clear that there were big holes in her story and very likely the entire incident had been faked, possibly to cover up an abortion. -- Kyrgyz authorities doubted her story from the start, and even interviewed a local abortion doctor who claimed he performed that procedure on Major Metzger during the time she was missing. Yet despite this she was able to avoid any major repercussions and now her career appears to be on the upswing again: The other reason is rooted in Major Metzger's own career. After being placed on the "temporarily retired" list for a couple of years, she returned to active duty in 2010, at Andrews AFB, MD. She's probably up for Lieutenant Colonel, and resolving the Kyrgyz matter would improve her prospects for promotion. 7 Scientific Reasons You'll Turn Out Just Like Your Parents You're only as old as you feel, right? Well except that a lot of how you 'feel' is controlled by neurochemistry, hormones, and genes. And while you might fight the power and fight your parents and the establishment, you'll never beat your own biology: As you get older, your brain becomes more and more unable to handle dopamine, which, as we've pointed out before, is a big factor in making us feel "the chills" when a new exciting piece of music comes on. Why Are There Gideon Bibles in Hotel Rooms Gideons International got its start in 1898, when two traveling businessmen, John H. Nicholson and Samuel E. Hill, arrived at the crowded Central Hotel in Boscobel, Wisconsin, for the night. The two had never met, but there was only one double room left, so they decided to share it. The men got to talking and found they shared a common faith and had both toyed with the idea of creating an evangelical association for Christian businessmen. I can't think of Gideon bibles without thinking about a gag on Cheers where Sam was convinced that a bible was following him from hotel room to hotel room and that this had to be a message from God. Would You Buy An OS From This Guy? Well you did. And judging by this collection of Microsoft commercials, I'm thinking there ought to be a corporate rule about executives appearing on screen. Remembering Earl Scruggs (1924-2012) Even if you never knew his name, you almost certainly know some of his songs and probably heard him play at some point.

Thor never had a Husqy, I think he rode Yamahas and Osas. But Husq is working on a new bike that's modeled after the old school Malcolm Smith/Steve McQueen ones from back in the day.

If I took home 240 million I would invent a way-back machine and bring back Bon Scott, Keith Moon, Jimi Hendryx, Janis Joplin, Chris Farley, John Belushi, etc...and watch them invent a new way to self-destruct and die. I'm guessing they would last about a year.

This German guy goes into a chapel every day, lights a candle and prays, "Holy Marie, help me win the lottery". He does so every single day for twenty years. On the first day of the twenty-first year, he lights the candle and says his prayer, "Holy Marie, help me win the lottery".
The statue of the virgin comes to life, looks down at the German and says, "Give me a chance - buy a ticket!" Bod-a-bing! Don't forget to tip yer waitress. Posted by: L Rob in OK at March 29, 2012 10:56 PM (7yvLv) 181

And if they aren't mislabeled as an "AK-47", the guns are ubiquitously labeled as "assault weapons".

Jay, enjoy Arizona...that state is pretty nice...especially if you like guns.
Posted by: model_1066 at March 29, 2012 11:16 PM (PWwbk) Guns are OK (we don't own any, but I took the whole family to a shooting range a while ago, and they all loved it), but what we really enjoy is freedom. That, and the feeling that we're not regarded as the wretched refuse of the earth because we're law-abiding, taxpaying, fiscally responsibleAmerican citizens.

You should reconsider peaches. after all its so easy to pop into the chopper and lift off the back end of the yacht to go for a days shopping in St Tropez.
Quick aside a couple of years back one of Microsoft's wunderkind had his yacht in New Orleans for some event...Yacht is an understatement. this thing could have been classified as a corvette or a frigate in some navies. Anyhoo the chopper that lived on the boat needed some maintenance so they flew it our shop. I met the mechanic and helped him do what needed to be done. What a frigging dream job. He follows the yacht around the world making sure the aircraft is ready to go and fixes the minor stuff and arranges with local service providers for anything he cant handle by himself. I tried to stuff my fat ass into the baggage compartment for the ride back to the boat but they found me out. Fuckers. Posted by: helofixer at March 29, 2012 11:56 PM (YI/d8) 378

I suppose that's too much to ask of someone whose background is agitating rather than crisis resolution and problem solving
It's been a busy week for him, what with betraying the Israeli's and selling out us and our allies to the Ruskies. Plus the backflip of simultaneously defending O-care while distancing from it, and praising Vermillivanilli before sending him under the bus. No time to stomp out fires. I mean, he's barely had time for golf.

I was watching FoxNews this morning . Bill Hemmer was moderating a debate between Monica Crowley and some goofy ass lib on the role of Obamacare and the church regarding paying for contraception. The lib said Because the economy is bad sex is the only thing people can do and the church should pay for their contraception. The look on Hemmer's face was priceless. For the record, Hemmer attended a Catholic high school here in Cincinnati. You could tell he was royally pissed at the idiot. To be fair I think the lib was trying to be funny but it fell flatter than cow piss on a flat rock.

A buddy is having complications after a hernia operation. He is constipated, bloated and he didn't piss for 3 days so he just got a second catheterization. Being the considerate friend I am I am going to put together a gift pack. A hunk of rope to bite when they take the catheter out, a electronic fart sound generator to inspire him to get his business done and a picture of Rosie O'Donnell 's cameltoe should he start to get a hardon while the catheter is in. An further suggestion? Keep it simple and cheap. It is only a gag after all.

I see Live Science has an article on how conservatives are evidencing less belief in Big Science (TM). They are somewhat even handed, but studiously avoid mentioning the elephant in the room.
Namely, that there is a proven "conspiracy" of leftwing "academics" to use ginned up global warming theory to advance leftist goals, and that the broader scientific community has done little to address the most serious crises in science since at least the 30s (Aryan "science" then). http://tinyurl.com/7o62hoq Posted by: 18-1 at March 30, 2012 12:13 AM (3aXbg) Posted by: Waterhouse at March 30, 2012 12:13 AM (qd1uf) 460

Civilians always tend to impute more to science than warranted. Facts
are facts; policies involve the convolution of facts with values. *** Interestingly, whenever science is conflated with morality, it ends badly. Godwin level badly. Posted by: 18-1 at March 30, 2012 12:31 AM (3aXbg) 543

My neighbor is a 61 year old black woman. She asked me what I thought about the whole Trayvon bullshit today. I told her that it is nothing more than a fucking diversion to try and gin up a controversy that shouldn't exist. I asked her how she felt about the 49 black shootings in Chicago over the St. Patricks day weekend and she suggested that no one cares. I told her that people do care with the exception of the usual outrageously outraged. She agreed 100 percent. This shit is striking a nerve.

Democratic Dialog - a poem supposedly from an R representative from Ohio in 1949:
Father, must I go to work? No, my lucky son. We're living now on Easy Street, on dough from Washington. We've left it up to Uncle Sam, so don't get exercised. Nobody has to give a damn-- we've all been subsidized. But if Sam treats us all so well, and feeds us milk and honey, please daddy, tell me what the hell he's going to use for money? Don't worry, bub, there's not a hitch in this here noble plan-- He simply soaks the filthy rich and helps the common man. But Father, won't there come a time when they run out of cash, and we have left them not a dime when things will go to smash? My faith in you is shrinking, son you nosy little brat! You do too damn much thinking, son to be a Democrat! Posted by: Theresa at March 30, 2012 12:36 AM (rKcyp) 564

Do you *really* believe that the primary motivating force behind Big Science in the US is real science anymore?
Yeah I do, actually. It is "real science" that follows the funding priorities of government agencies, granted, but it is still science. Political agenda driven pseudoscience like "climate science" is more the exception than the rule. Funding agencies explicitly reward big transformative ideas that have a sound scientific basis. Yes they are ideas that are more likely to be in "green energy" than in nuclear energy research but they are still scientifically valid ideas.

Like in all things there is a "formal" way to do things and an "informal" way. The formal way is to challenge the established order in the open literature and start a war. The informal way is to have discussions outside of the open literature with the leaders in the field, at conferences at the like, and you make your case that way. Yes there are some real assholes in science just like in every field but most of the ones I have come across have actually been quite reasonable and willing to listen to unorthodox ideas.

So, speak up anyway. It's better than kissing their ass. If they call you racist then call them pussies or cowards. By not speaking up, you are giving in and surrendering. You don't have to start the conversation, but it they start it never be afraid to express your thoughts. The real racists want you to be afraid to speak up.

You won't change their mind, but you just need to stand your ground with your convictions.

Well I did opine the caveat that if they bring it up first. Yeah, you bringing it up should be avoided. Unfortunately, popular culture these days tell white people that they are inferior to other races because of reverse racism. I just refuse to fall in line with unfunny talk show hosts, comedians and others who are the true cowards. You never want to think you are superior to others based on your race, but you also never want to think you are inferior to others based on your race. Be yourself, and stand up for yourself and your convictions if someone asks you about them. Posted by: Samuel Adams at March 30, 2012 01:15 AM (5KvzL) 658

But shes old and one of my faves and im a big dork, and hate to see this one stand useless so i am thinkin my retired broodmare might get a job workin for people again. shes kinda likin the idea. Shes a total attention slut. So i dunno might rain the russian princess to do mounted combat too. Shes 23 and combative so the old bat might really like it. Or she may dump my ass in the dirt with extreme prejudice, since she was trained as a prissy dressage horse.

Practice complimenting people you have no intentions toward. Compliment, with a smile, and move on immediately. Get into the habit.

Everybody seems to be getting the music article wrong.
It's not that your musical tastes will get like an old person when you get old, it's just that you will be more "set in your ways" and stick to the music you grew up with. Which is odd because I don't listen to the music I grew up with anymore. It's that alien blood. Posted by: Merovign, Dark Lord of the Sith at March 30, 2012 02:25 AM (bxiXv) 838

When I was a lad, I listened to KMPC here in L.A. They played a cross-section of music that would be inconceivable today--pretty much everything in the Top 40 except for hard rock most of the day, and a broader selection with lots of album cuts at night. They played everything from the Mills Bros. to Bowie. If I wanted to dig deeper, I could switch over to FM to fill in the blanks.
Now, finding good new music takes a lot of time and dedication that I don't have, and a lot of it you find on the Internet is so distorted by bad compression that it is unlistenable.

It may be true for people who consider music nothing more than a soundtrack for life, and who place more of an emphasis on novelty than on quality.

Okay, now Stephane Grappelli is someone I listen to now, but it's his stuff from back in the '30s with Django Reinhardt, back when he was "Grappelly". I think those two were far more heavily influenced by Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang than is generally understood today. Of course, they brought their own, marvelous angle to things.

It'd be awfully difficult to lock on to music I grew up with.
Up to the White Album, I listened to a lot of Beatles....but then my parents became concerned about reports of drug-use and wouldn't let me listen to their albums while not supervised -- so I switched over to a different band with a lead singer from San Diego -- The Doors. One of my teachers in school played this really cool music he'd found during class. I asked what it was, and he said it was probably Walter Carlos' "Switched-On Bach" (it wasn't -- it was Ruth White's "Short Circuits") I started chasing Carlos albums and ended up falling into Classical in a big way. After the movie, "The Sting" came out, there was a revival of interest in ragtime.....which the folks got on albums by the New England Ragtime Ensemble, and I learned to play on piano. After suffering from massive ridicule through my junior High and HS years, I decided to get with the program -- and picked up Boston "Boston"; Jefferson Starship, "Earth"; Fleetwood Mac, "Rumours"; and Rush, "A Farewell to Kings". Going to college, I started collecting 10cc and Little Feat, and occasionally going prog with PG-era Genesis. Things didn't really get bad until Media Player.....

The music stagnation thing is true in my case. My parents listened to the pop station, so I have a soft spot for the admittedly awful music of the 70's. In school, as member of the white working-class tribe, my friends and I were into what is now "classic rock". In high school I became a metalhead..Slayer and early Metallica, none of that Ratt crap...while still watching MTV and the goofy videos of the early 80's. My musical journey pretty much ended with Pearl Jam's "Ten" in '92. I like a newer tune here or there, but I don;t think my Itunes has more than 6 songs made after that. And I've long ago stopped caring if anyone thinks I'm a fogey. In fact, my 12 year old daughter is a huge Beatles fan, and some 20-somethings I work with worship Pink Floyd.

My Mom liked the group, so she got all the albums, and when I was a kid I listened to everything we had. "Green Green" was just the beginning. I liked that song, but Barry McGuire was a pretty corny singer. The album I liked best was Today, the soundtrack album to the film Advance to The Rear. Some nice songs there. After that, they devolved into a MOR cover band, and I didn't listen much to the last few albums.

Good Morning Morons. It doesn't matter than the AGW scam has been proven to be a fraudulent exercise in advancing communism and stealing money from people. The damn MFM is still printing the scam like nothing has happened in the past 10 years. And worst of all, under executive fiat orders the EPA is advancing their own laws without benefit of Congress. And they know they will get away with it because the Republican have no balls.
As for the Battle of Athens, it would never happen today. The feds would dispatch troops to put the "rebellion down". On Gideon Bibles, my brother is a member of the Gideon society. They do things besides hand out bibles which is becoming more difficult now as more and more local governments are declaring war on religion. And last of all Imus is a libtard asshole.

I'm doing fine this morning. I am about to go turn in my Chemo pump this morning and this is my last chemo. As for Imus, I had a friend from my CA days who had moved back to OH to take care of his grandmother. His wife called me to come visit because he had prostate cancer.
I visited over Thanksgiving holidays and he died before Christmas. He died very painfully even with massive amounts of morphine. Posted by: Vic at March 30, 2012 05:39 AM (YdQQY) Posted by: beanervt at March 30, 2012 05:42 AM (KZLoo) 988
Imus keeps talking about this safety net and how poor people can't afford the fees then the hospital and ultimately us pay for it.
This is not completely true because the Hospital will still bill you for it and attempt to collect. Here they will set up a payment schedule and turn it over to bill collectors. In any case, this wouldn't be a problem if they changed the law on what the ER has to do. Posted by: Vic at March 30, 2012 05:42 AM (YdQQY) 989
We can't tell who is the enemy and they can't either. In some cultures, killing a relative you disagree with is a good thing. Can you imagine? I have some bad relatives but I would never harm them (unless it was a Hitler, Stalin, Mao, or the guy shooting sleeping cops).

It looked to me earlier this week that they wanted the Trayvon story to go away after No_Limits_Ni**a wasn't the image they wanted to present for Obama's slain son. Then that police video was released 'proving' some major racist conspiracy and they're right back on it, and anyone questioning Trayvon's character is a racist. Right back to Obama's comfort zone. Indicates to me that Obama is going to be beaten in rather epic fashion, just too bad we don't have much to replace him with. Posted by: mugiwara at March 30, 2012 06:37 AM (KI/Ch) 1011
