Symphony of Science - The Unbroken Thread

Sarah Palin Book Signing - Meet The Fans

longde says...

When has Palin actually limited the size and scope of government? When she supported the "bridge to nowhere" ($398 MILLION in federal funds that she didn't return when the project was eventually cancelled)? When she ran up her state's travel expense accounts on her and her family for non-business? When she abused her powers to get her ex-brother in law sacked? Yeah, that's a real small government conservative.

For you to choose to vote for someone who is obviously incompetent over someone whose politics you merely differ with is crazy. I've voted for 3rd party candidates before; at least go that route.

I shiver at the thought of Palin in a meeting with Hu Jintao, Medvedev or Netanyahoo. She'd get eaten alive. She can't even handle Katie Couric.

Either you haven't thought it through or you are crazy.

Sigh... Palin is not a neo-con. Neo-cons are big government conservatives. Palin is a small government conservative. That's why she's so popular - most Republicans had to hold their noses to vote for GWB the second time and many rejected McCain, because they were both for the massive expansion of government. See for example Spendulus I. Obama continued the trend with Spendulus II.
Conservatives are (rightly) asking where all the money for the Spendulus bills will come from, and the Republican Party is providing no leadership in opposing the expansion of government - the party is nearly rudderless. Even though Palin wouldn't be my ideal candidate for president, I'd vote for most any candidate that was for limiting the size of government. Last year I voted Libertarian (Bob Barr), for example. If Palin ran against Obama, I'd vote for her.
All the liberal FUD aside, her stances on the issues are actually quite thoughtful and reasonable. I've followed her notes on Facebook from time to time:

Fat cat climbs ladder

id49606 says...

>> ^shponglefan:
On the one hand that video is kind of cute.
On the other hand, it makes me sad when cat owners let their cats become so obese. It just means that poor cat will more likely suffer needless health problems in the future.


Yep, cause having your cat climb a latter doesn't count as exercise.

I have a cat that's actually bigger than this one. Got him from a shelter at a shade under 30 lbs, after he'd lost 8 lbs since arrival at the shelter. It takes a lot of effort(or lack of), theft of food, ingenuity, and bullying of the other cats for him to stay that fat. I'd be almost proud at his efforts, if he wasn't attempting a guiness record for the fattest ass.

Whitehouse Calls Scarborough an A*Hole over Nobel Comments

Nithern says...

Ronald Reagan? Stopped the Cold War? Yeah, but putting the USA in to massaive debt through building astonishing amounts of nuclear weapons in an arms race with USSR, ISNT, creating peace. Unless of course, you count the total annihilation of Humanity thorugh a nuclear holocaust, the peaceful way?

Can you tell whom voted for Mr. McCain last November? And whom voted for Mr. Obama in that crowd?

If I recall recent history, thanks to quite a number of individuals (under Mr. Obama's leadership), what could have been a economic depression, wasn't. I guess that isn't much, right?

I cheer the president for his award. Its an award being given to an AMERICAN. Not that all you folks outside the USA are bad people or anything. I'm sure if the Nobel had one for being 'Stupid' or 'Making War', Mr. Bush and Mr. Cheney would have won several times (maybe gotten in to Guiness for the most straight times to win a Nobel award).

Hehe, thats like asking a dog which part of his dog-house he lives in.

I live in the part that's technically Burlington, on the western side, south of the I40. Very suburban, these days.

Get out of here. No way. Seriously? Which part?

In reply to this comment by KnivesOut:
Hilarious. Also, I live in Graham currently. Coincidence? Perhaps.

In reply to this comment by blankfist:
I'm happy to see you finally came out of the gun cabinet, there, gunner. We all had our suspicions.

I'm Heaficus Coillcumhann Weorthmerlow Esquire the Third, but everyone just calls me Harasshole... or Heath. To make money, I work as a freelance Flash Developer. I live in Los Angeles, right now, but I'm originally from a little speck on the map called Graham, North Carolina. I just finished a film, which some of you already know about, and I'm currently showing it around trying to get some buzz behind it. I hope to someday move to Wilmington, NC and get out of LA.

I speak eighty different languages; twenty three of them dead. I have a Guiness World Record for most jumps on a pogo stick: current record is 56,381 jumps. I invented Gobots and Al Gore, so that kind of makes me the original creator of the internets, don't it? I also invented Life cereal. You're welcome. Rottenseed is my sock puppet. I buy batteries in bulk. Let's see, what else? Oh! The answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is NOT 42. That's preposterous. It's 42.3728. Use this knowledge gingerly and sparingly.

And, lastly, when gwiz665 is around at night, I tend to dance with the devil in the pale moonlight. Just saying.

D-Nice - Crumbs On The Table

MrFisk says...

Who gets laid the chicken or the egg?
How about the MC that has just been led
To a renegade teacher preacher then he got stomped
Cause I'm a feature straight from the Bronx
Productions better known as Boogie Down
If I was a king right now I'd get crowned
The Nice is a teacher not a prince or a rap lord
I even write my rhymes on a blackboard
To get specific, and probably make you understand
What makes the 808 plan
It's simple, I'm a round it off like this
That's how many stupid MC's I've dissed
But if the commence to try me I won't buy it
I'll look them up and down and I'll say "Don't even try it"
Cause I can go on and on without breathing
The TR, another form of BDP-eating
MC's like Chunky, moving real bluntly
Shaking and baking MC's like a junky
Fiending, hitting MC's like they was cocaine
Calling them John Doe, meaning they have no name
I'll spin you like a quarter, drink you like water
Hit below the belt with things you never thought of
I lay down the law that I am a slaughter
I roll like a tital wave, so you oughta
Float like a sailboat, move like a speedboat
In water, now watch you soak
Into a rhyme of mine until you hit the bottom
It's heavy like an anchor, it's no problem
For me to just bake you, eat you like a cookie
I am a profressional, boy, you're just a rookie
I'm here to sing a song, but some are not able
Compared to me you're just crumbs on the table

In my prime, more vocal than I've ever been
I'm not an amateur, sort of like a veteran
Split from the bums, arriving from a long trip
Now I'm back to just cold rip
MC's like confetti, eat 'em like spaghetti
I chill for a year and yet I'm still ready
To house MC's, sink 'em like a boat will
I roll heavy, thick like oatmeal
So now you know the 808 is showing
I do damage in just one moment
Here's a little message to those who want to hang out
Just remember that I give pain out
The TR-808 relates to a terrorizer
Never hiding, clever always memorizing
Poetry, history, math, or even paragraphs
I'm not into b-boying, just hoeing
Showing, blowing MC's like the wind does
I might lay you, sort of like a hen does
Cause your rhymes are weak and unstable
Compared to me you're just crumbs on the table

You must think, before you even get soup
I'll put you on the corner and sell you like a prostitute
Like a street whore, make you want more and more
Move you to the side, up and down like a seesaw
Pulling out a gun is uncalled for
But I'm with it, so go for yours
You may even try to diss, but I call it flattery
I pack more volts than a Duracell battery
Charging MC's, smooth like the breeze
Scott made me funky, yo, that was one theme
Or topic, showing I be rocking
Every little city I play I leave a heat wave
Burning up the industry, never try to get with me
I'm the type of person that never needs rehearsing
Just a little sex, a six pack of Beck's
And my room to move about, and a Guiness Stout
To make me feel able, chilling, and stable
Sometimes I'm on the mic, sometimes I'm on the turntable
I'm superb, sort of like herb
A man of my word and I've never been served

A How To Guide to Preparing Oysters

Asmo says...

Kilpatrick: Finely chop up bacon, mix with worcestershire and tomato sauce in equal measures, then apply to the oyster, grill until bacon is crispy. Garlic/salt/pepper/tabasco can be used to taste in the sauce (ie. prepare the sauce separate without the bacon ; )

Kilkenny:My personal favourite, marinate the oysters in Kilkenny ale (about a teaspoon per oyster) for 30 mins, then top with camembert cheese, unsweetened cream and bake lightly in the oven (you don't want to toast the cheese/cream, just get the whole thing warmed up and liquified). You can use a stout (Guiness if you must) or a nut brown ale depending on your preferred tastes. ; )
