Who else here has done some animation? (Kids Talk Post)

>> ^youdiejoe:

You know it's come full circle when.... I was at Legoland with my son this weekend, and they now have a LEGO branded kids video camera for making stop animation, it has built in Macro function. I think the the retail was 70 bucks.
I would like to see some stuff shot with it.


On looking at reviews of it, the image quality is right up there with all cheap and nasty web cams... pity.

Rep. Grayson on the Christian Right's "Pact with the Devil"

Never in the history of this country has there been a "limited government" GOP. Never. Not once. They never "abandoned" the idea, because they never cared for it in the first place.

Not entirely. Many times in the history of the GOP they have had strong small government advocates. And here's a shocker... So did the Democrat party. There was one time when it was the de facto position a politician had to assume. And in modern history, the GOP has been the party that at least courts limited government as an idea (even if they don't do much for it). If only 1 GOP member in 1,000 is a limited government fiscal conservative, then it has to be said that the Democrats only have 1 in 100,000. Yup - I'm aware the GOP hasn't had this as thier central platform for a while. I blame 4 to 6 generations of RINOs for that with only ONE all too brief interruption with Reagan.

Note that Reagan had to deal with an overwhelmingly stacked Congress and still managed to squeeze in a lot of fiscal conservatism despite not holding the purse. Note also that the GOP took the house in 1994 on a platform of limited government and fiscal conservatism - which in turn forced Clinton to stop a lot of his leftist agenda. It would be wonderful to think what Reagan could have done to slash government if he'd had the 1994 Congress. The GOP got voted out after they abandoned fiscal conservative principles. True story, dat.

The problem is that SMALL, LIMITED GOVERNMENT, should you achieve it, puts you in a position where there is a lot to fix and no good reason not to fix it, which brings you back full circle.

Government's role is to be a place for people to appeal when real abuses take place. That kind of limited invovlement is very valuable. But when government regulation as we know it today is far too intrusive and limiting. Government should serve as an occasional watchdog to punish real abuses. It should NOT serve as a police force to FIND abuses, or a legal office to PREVENT abuses. Create a skeleton of simple, common sense laws. Set up some watchdog & whistleblower groups. Put all the remaining regulatory & monitoring power into state government hands. Then get the Feds the heck out of everyone's way and watch out for that big huge pile of falling money.

A bit less oportunistic trillion dollar invasions and general corruption (read lobbyists)

No - read GOVERNMENT. The corruption to worry about is at the government level, not the lobbyist level. Lobbyists can't buy what isn't for sale. The fact that politicians sell out is the problem. The fact that there are lobbyists there to pay them is ancillary to the corruption in the political class.

@ Winstonfield_Pennypacker

Is this what they call a libertarian position?

The problem is that SMALL, LIMITED GOVERNMENT, should you achieve it, puts you in a position where there is a lot to fix and no good reason not to fix it, which brings you back full circle.

Any sane person is for simplification of bureaucracy, but the reality (IMO) is that that can only come from a concerted effort to reach an acceptable, logical standard of social care. Not looking after those who are unable/unwilling to survive/conform does not put you in a better long term position.

A bit less oportunistic trillion dollar invasions and general corruption (read lobbyists) and we could afford to get most people on their feet (read entering adulthood educated and not traumatised) and fight the spiral.

So surely its about what government is up to as much as how big it is?

Waltz based on the annoying Nokia Phone ring

ReverendTed says...

...and so we come full circle.
As it mentions at the bottom of the first page of music, the (now infamous) Nokia ringtone was itself based on four bars from Tarrega's "Waltz in A Minor", or "Gran Vals".

This is like one of those situations where you've got a "Novelization of the Film"...based on a movie...that was itself based on a novel in the first place.

Man Man - Van Helsing Boombox

EndAll says...

A fine remedy!

From the YouTube description: "Man Man didn't know they were going to be filmed live for Dutch television! They missed soundcheck for the gig, thought they were just playing for a club, and then found out the bad news."

I wouldn't have called it bad news! I think that lent more to the performance than it subtracted - it was really chill, built up slow but got better and better and came 'round full circle into an awesome live show.
