This post was a toss-up between This one already published here on Videosift (7.5 Mil+ views in 3 days on YouTube is not too shabby), and another video of over 7 people in the demolitions industry being interviewed one after another all lending insights towards a consensus in opinion-that people's minds may be partly cloudy concerning what they think they think happened on that day. "Truthers" maybe, but cry foul at a reasonable call for more disclosure?
Why? It's more information needed to form a reasonable conclusion. More the better.

My guess would be cloudy liquid could be used to hide something in the center of a container....if it was full enough.

Although when they had her dump it into smaller containers, the "threat" should have been over then and there. Especially if they had done any kind of screen of it at all, but they didn't. They just wanted to fuck with her so she'll learn her lesson and not make them work.


I found the whole "glass room" with one door in the middle of everything to be pretty telling of the whole TSA business. It has one door and an open side.....so it's not there to keep them in...the door is there as a "suggestion". There is no chair, and when it looked like someone was trying to bring her a chair, they took it back. It looked like later in the video (after she'd been standing in that place for 30 some minutes) that someone was pushing a chair toward her in the background.

I know the video is trying to play on our sympathies for a "young mother", but hell I'd have been sympathetic with almost anyone after they put them in a glass cage as a spectacle for other people for 40 minutes and did shit all to deal with them during that period. It pisses me off to no end to see one person at a business clearly wasting time while people are waiting to get dealt with, whether it's to pay the cashier, see a customer service rep, or get someone to follow their own policies and get me processed or kick me off the premises.

Sure a young mother is a more sympathetic victim, but 40 minutes standing in a glass cage with no one coming to update you regularly, giving you a chair, and then at the end of it not even having you processed one way or the other is complete and utter bullshit no matter who is there unless they are guilty as hell of something. I wonder if they would have let someone use the restroom once they've been put in the "special holding area" (the "look at the bad guy booth").

The liberal argument is that we shouldn't be giving tax cuts out (cutting revenue) during a recession, but at least tax cuts to the middle class would spur the economy. Rich folks don't do nothing with tax cuts but squirrel it away, according to statistics and studies et cetera. I lived among the richest of folks and the only suffering going on around here is the ever-present status anxiety that the life among the cloudy heights will fall soon. Whereas my notsorich family is so grateful that medicare kicked in to help get through the cancer...

I don't think I understand this argument. He is saying that the rich are going to spend money on stuff . . . right? Isn't that what we want the rich to do - spend money? I also am a bit mystified as to his motive for the class warfare crap (assigning evil to every millionaire, ie 'the high and mighty'); whose love of money is he exposing, exactly? Sounds like he's got a bit of pecunious envy. That love of money deal- it really is the root of all sorts of evil.

Like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day in February.

Given the cloudy haze rings shot at the beginning, I'm guessing this is a no sex before marriage video - ways to be physically close with your partner without actually having sex.

Given the cloudy haze rings shot at the beginning, I'm guessing this is a new way to exercise which incurrs highest possible rates of looking fucking ridiculous.

I'm still a little cloudy on the subject, but I guess that's because I'm not informed enough about politics, but I think I get your drift. Thanks NetRunner

Glenn Greewald wrote a great article on this topic that really digs into this, including Supreme Court decisions.

Re: the Franken amendment, it's completely nonspecific. The KBR case was certainly the catalyst, but the law is aimed at the behavior, not the individual.

With the push to defund ACORN, the reverse is true.

Don't be gullible WRT this video. It was produced by some religio-mystical cult and presents things in a cloudy "isn't it magical?" kinda way (like the Heisenberg Principle and the double-slit experiment).

A Dry Martini should never be shaken! It gets all cloudy from it. Me, I wash some ice in Noilly Prat vermouth, stir in the gin, and pours it in a glass sans the ice. Not a big fan of the dirty variants, but I can understand the appeal.

This made me well up before Up, and then the first act of Up had me practically weeping. The 3D glasses did nothing to stem the flow of tears.


No joke. I thought Up was too crushingly sad for me to enjoy any of it.

It is not Air on a G string either; that one is an adaption for solo violin and piano. The music in the video is the real thing, by Bach himself.

Edit: Although it should be mentioned that the title "Air on a G string" is often misattributed to any version of this tune.

In reply to this comment by cybrbeast:
I think it might be Bach after all.

Hope it's correct now. Thanks for helping to clear that up.
