12 yr. old Palestinian MC Abdul "Shouting At The Wall"

newtboy says...

@bcglorf

I only mention the illegal status of the invading Jewish masses in the 40’s because they would deny it. I’ve heard many a person claim all Jewish people there were legal immigrants and legal refugees invited in by Palestinians, but the vast majority came after the war ended…illegally….intent on taking over the country and expelling the natives.

Coming as refugees intending to return “home” would have been fine for everyone, but they didn’t want to try that….it wouldn’t end with a Jewish state.

I’m only anti Zionist because they don’t play fair. Because they claim absolute rights to others land, heritage, water, defense, even lives, then act self righteous about their Nazi like behavior and deny any obvious parallels. I find intolerable the one sided “conflict” where rocks or fireworks are met with bullets and bombs under the excuse that “we have the right to defend ourselves”, where well under 10000 Israeli have died but over 65000 Palestinians have been killed directly not counting the millions who died of disease, malnourishment, lack of water, lack of medicine, etc. from the treatment they received from Israel.
I really dislike the situation because my country involved itself and CAUSED it….without our intervention Israel would have ceased to exist in the 50’s, and it sickens me that my country pays for a genocidal racist nation to continue to exist.

I believe the Jewish state should have been carved out of Germany. I would not complain with them returning the treatment they received from actual Nazis…it’s treating relatively innocent victims like that simply because they can that’s unconscionable.

My gripe is totally about their collective actions, not their genetics or religion. That’s the important difference between my reasoning and the right’s hatred of non white immigrants.

The $5BN Mega Resort in the Desert

spawnflagger jokingly says...

if the only way to get there is by jet, how are the resorts going to carbon-offset all of that jet fuel used to get there?

The carved-into-rock hotel might make a good James Bond set, but not sure how many rich Saudis will enjoy climbing a mountain to get to their room (which will likely cost thousands $$ per night)

Endurance wreck: Lost ship found off Antarctic

JiggaJonson says...

who decided to film it this way? I dont mean to complain...but i wanted ... idk... to see more of something that would give me a sense of scale of the ship maybe with some close ups where an old timey sailor carved his name into the deck...


Instead its some weird still shots from a distance with slow zoom and i cant fucking hear what the water sounds like because all i can hear is this crazy EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE awWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

That said, I still liked seeing the ship.

Trump Crime Family

newtboy says...

Sorry sunshine, there's nothing to work with there but insane Russian made conspiracy theories without evidence.

I do have this for you....but you aren't gonna like it.

For Trump's family, yes, they had to edit down from a 3 hour long commercial...just so much to wade through there....so much graft and swindle with verification, it was a Herculean effort to carve it down to commercial length. Thanks for the kudos, but they don't belong to me....I'll send them along to Midas Touch for you.

BOSE? Bose-Einstein condensate

https://www.jpl.nasa.gov/edu/news/2016/7/27/they-really-do-exist-nasas-ghostbusters/

In a team of professional ghost busters, Anita Sengupta would most certainly be the enthusiastic and multi-talented leader. She’s already taken on roles developing launch vehicles, the parachute that famously helped land the Mars rover Curiosity, and deep-space propulsion systems for missions to comets and asteroids.


Sengupta and other members of the entry, descent and landing team for NASA's Mars rover Curiosity discuss the nail-biting details of the August 2012 landing.

Most recently, she’s carved out a niche as the project manager for an atomic physics mission, called the Cold Atom Laboratory, or CAL.

Since the mission was proposed in 2012, Sengupta has been leading a team of engineers and atomic physicists in developing an instrument that can see the unseen. Their mission is to create an ultra-cold quantum gas called a Bose-Einstein condensate, which is a state of matter that forms only at just above absolute zero. At such low temperatures, matter takes on unique properties that seemingly defy the laws of thermodynamics.

I think he carved that groove through those mountains after years of flying down and using nothing more than a parachute and golf shoes.

CarbonCure’s Concrete Innovation

newtboy says...

Sure, let's say you need a foundation. Wouldn't it be best if it were one solid stone? Now, isn't it easier to make that stone in place and in the right shape from an easily transported liquid instead of hauling in a 150 ton slab you have to then carve into shape?
Edit : this seems to turn the cement back into a single solid stone which should be far more stable and solid than regular cement/concrete.

Payback said:

Anyone tell me why turning cement back into limestone, after going through all the bother of converting said limestone into cement, makes any sense whatsoever?

The Sound Master

kir_mokum says...

audio engineering in general is VERY insular and VERY slow to move. there aren't really "jobs", you have to carve out your own slice of whatever pie you can find. and that's on top of being a complete boys club since its inception.

Full Frontal - Forced Arbitration as Part of Labor Contracts

bareboards2 says...

Me too.

I was struck by what often happens with the conservative mind. Unless it happens to you, and you personally suffer, you could give a rats' patootie.

Maybe Gretchen Carlsen carved out this tiny piece because it is possible to get this passed. Will she work as hard on any other contract? Or is she happy with just "getting her own"?

00Scud00 said:

I'm totally for this, not just in employment contracts but in any kind of contracts really, forced arbitration as a concept needs to die in a fire.
But it needs to cover everything, not just sexual harassment, if we try to do this piecemeal the corporations will force us to fight for everything individually and we will waste a lot of time and money doing it.

Tulsi Gabbard: Syrians tell me there are no moderate rebels

radx says...

Absolutely. We've had our share of - primarily Austrian and French - mercenaries as part of our internal wars. These were groups who enlisted for one of the fighting parties.

In Syria, however, you've had thousands of mercenaries who were not fighting for the government or the "rebels", but for their own. And we're not just talking about ISIS carving out pieces of Syria for their own caliphate, but also other jihadists who merely want to turn Syria into another failed state, like Libya.

To describe this as a civil war distorts the nature of this conflict, it makes it sound as if it were a struggle for control between two groups of Syrians. It may have been at some point years ago, but it hasn't been for a long time.

Mali is looking awfully similar by now, too. Lots of foreign fighters in nation states that were only ever stable on paper anyway -- a recipe for disaster.

newtboy said:

Um....there were also plenty of foreign mercenaries fighting on both sides in our (US) civil war. That is the norm, not something odd.

Deciphering the Dark Secrets of Codex Seraphinianus

newtboy says...

*quality weirdness
It reminds me of a carving I made in high school. When pressed to explain what it was, I described it as an impressionistic interpretation of an invisible dog hiding behind a tree....without the tree.
