RWNJs are already screaming that this is Obama federalizing the local police systems. There are some out there that are 100% convinced that this is a Democratic plot to ensure civil war and strife, require declaration of Martial Law, and suspend the elections.

This is straight up fuckery. They knew for a fact that Castile was issued a permit but wanted to feed the right wingers something they could run with in order to cast doubt on that fact.

They’re pretending that the information is “private” and they can’t give it out themselves even though newspapers have confirmed Castile had a valid permit, but they have no problem handing the racists red meat and pretending there’s some wiggle room because they didn’t issue it. If it turns out they’ve had his permit in their evidence locker this whole time that equivocating bullshit tweet is going to look even worse.

So in a earlier thread, there was a question about the creationism answer to where the dinosaurs are now. Well, silly people, they’re still here. It’s just that there isn’t nearly as much food for them now, so they are much smaller. Yes, that’s right. Lizards are undernourished dinosaurs. And yes that really is a creationist talking point.

Sadly, the article was on one of those sites that’s fucking LOADED with self-reloading ads, and I was not able to read more than the first 2 of 6 things before I gave up.

Back on FB, I also clicked like, which opened up the comments. The VERY FIRST COMMENT I saw said, “This article is stupid. I teach my kids to love everyone, so we’re not contributing to racism.”

Of course, the commenter was a white guy.

They had no business posting the first tweet, so they spent the rest of the day walking it back. But notice that they never bother to state if Castile actually had a permit (he did, journalists have established that) or whether they have a copy of that permit in their evidence locker. They talk about it being classified as “private” information (it isn’t, he’s dead) rather than clarifying something that is apparently well within their power to find out. Rather than accurately informing the public they chose to muddy the waters with irrelevant bullshit.

It’s pure fuckery.

So in a earlier thread, there was a question about the creationism answer to where the dinosaurs are now. Well, silly people, they’re still here. It’s just that there isn’t nearly as much food for them now, so they are much smaller. Yes, that’s right. Lizards are undernourished dinosaurs. And yes that really is a creationist talking point.

So they evolved into smaller creatures because of environmental pressures? Interesting.

I have yet to hear of a responsible gun owners pulling out his/her gun and successfully respond in one of those situations.

There was a shooting/hostage situation at the Tacoma Mall in 2005. That Weak-i-pedia article is completely sanitized. There was a very informative article in The Seattle Times immediately afterward, but it’s of course disappeared down the memory hole. Apparently this “responsible gun owner”, McKown, was a maniac who worked at the knife store and had been fatiguing everybody within earshot for years about how he would Rambo up the place if anything went down. So he did—jumped out with a gun and escalated the situation while SWAT was negotiating and got himself paralyzed for his pains.

First of all I would like to apologize to those who favorited my earlier shot of Palouse. I decided to delete that because the more I stared at it the more homogenous it made me feel. Having seen a million shots just like the one I posted I began to wonder if I was suffering from a case of creating content rather than expressing myself through art. So I decided to focus my effort on creating a shot that was unique and hopefully a new perspective of albeit an often photographed place. As I was going through my archives I came across this shot of hikers on mesquite dunes at DV. The light, patterns and textures I felt all added up to an image more interesting than my earlier Palouse shot. Not sure if you feel the same way, but the artist in me can definitely sleep better now. :)

Yes, but the differing colors of the layers lead me to believe there were some differences in the depositional environments. That would mean they were laid down horizontally, uplifted and then the frosting intrusion occurred. Could there be another cake just like that one on the other side of an anticline? Would more frosting be trapped at the center of that?

Actually, you either make it by cutting concentric vertical circles of cake, or rolling it, jelly roll style.

I was thinking more likely that between the boundaries there was some weakness that resulted in concentric faulting at the time of the intrusion. Erosion on the top to flatten it out, plus another frosting flow, and if we just sliced it off at the bottom you can have the differing layers without needing another cake like it on the anticline.

Screw the cake, I just want a bowl of the frosting.

Good evening Lizards. Was out of the apartment at 7am to drive an hour and then do a hike. Given the weather forecast for scattered thunderstorms most of the day I figured I might get the walking in before it rained. I got drizzled on a bit, but nothing serious. The overcast was not great for photography, but I got some decent shots.

The location was a county park near the Pennsylvania-Maryland state line. It contains a section of serpentine barren - which is a fairly rare geologic feature. There are also a few remains of old chromium and feldspar mining operations dating back to the early 20th century and World War 1. (Chromite can be found in the serpentine deposits here.)

According to a PDF I found, yes. Now whether I found any of them is unclear to me. Though the terrain does look different than the adjacent woods which I wandered through as well. Pitch Pine for instance rather than other species. Scrub and Black Oak. And a mix of open and lightly treed areas. And lots and lots and lots of greenbrier, which made off-trail walking a wee bit hazardous.

If anything, it reminded me of remediated strip mine - very little soil and very poor moisture retention. Slightly different rocks of course underneath it, but the same sort of effect.

re: #107 Blind Frog Belly White

There were always small dinosaurs. Think of it more as the big ones dying out.

As I understand it, oxygen levels were higher back then, so large animals could thrive without suffocating to death. Of course, not all dinos and other animals were large beasts. The asteroid impact event made life difficult for all species, but especially for the large dinosaurs who after all needed to eat a lot of food. Plus, they probably had trouble adapting to the colder temperatures. So, environmental pressures favored smaller sized reptiles, as well as critters that could live partially in water (gators, for example) and in the air (primitive birds).

Meanwhile, now that the dominant class of animals was gone, tiny mammals could thrive.

I don’t think I made it down there when we lived in PA, but we do have serpentine here in the SF Bay Area and it generally hosts a lot of rare stuff because it is pretty crappy soil.

Now I’m really leaving

You really want to spend as little time as possible where there’s going to be a lot of serpentine fibers in the air. That’s what does the harm in asbestosis. Serpentine is the good stuff, but much more expensive, so they used it insulating boilers on Navy ships and so forth. The cheap stuff they used in houses is much less harmful.

Chucky has his finger on the pulse of the idiotsphere.

He also stole a post from Conservative Treehouse without credit, claiming Philando Castile perpetrated an armed robbery before he was shot to death by police in a traffic stop.

Snopes already debunked this stupid right wing smear. It’s incredibly moronic.

If this nation had the sense to have at least as sensible a system of licensing and registration for firearms as we do for cars, the tragedy in Dallas could’ve been averted.

The suspected gunman in the attack on Dallas law enforcement was accused of sexual harassment during his military deployment in Afghanistan, a military lawyer said.

Micah Xavier Johnson was a private first class in the U.S. Army Reserve serving in Afghanistan when he was accused of sexually harassing a higher-ranking female soldier in May 2014, military lawyer Bradford Glendening told ABC News. Glendening, who represented Johnson in the case, said the woman requested a military protective order against his client.

yahoo.com

Someone subjected to a protective order should at least have a major red flag raised before they should be licensed to possess firearms, if not automatically barred from possession. It shouldn’t be easier to get military grade weapons than it is to drive a car.

It’s been raining (storming) here all week, visibility at the quarry isn’t going to be great, but yet I’ve loaded my gear and am heading out in the morning. Got some good folks I’m diving with, it will be fun no matter how bad it is.

The official report from Quarry….

What a week here in Western Kentucky. Storms since Wednesday has left about 7 inches of rainfall thus making visibility terrible. Surface temp is a nice 82 degrees with visibility 3 to 5ft. Clears up a little around the 30 ft mark where divers reported 10 to 15 ft. Temp is 60. Mother nature sure has taken a toll this week. Have a safe and happy weekend. Happy Bubbles!!!!

In any case, some good folks to spend the day with, hopefully I’ll get some good training in for myself and maybe be able to help one or two folks build their skills.

So I believe he did buy it, but there’s no way of knowing whether Malik’s copy is real or not. UpChuck’s dream of testing it for DNA is exceedingly bizarre and I’m pretty sure a complete waste of time.

I guess I’m officially an old fart. I read every word on that wiki page and still don’t have a single clue what the whole thing is all about. And have no interest in finding it out.

Oh, and get off my lawn.

I quit reading when it said it used Bluetooth to track your every movement. Uhm…nope. I’m not even a fan of checking in let alone geotagging my every freaking step.

Nope. Not gonna happen.

Who would threaten the Dallas Police Department after the horrendous actions only a day ago? Was watching MSNBC last night in Montana and they were quite clear Dallas has worked very hard to be as transparent about everything its department does.

The police were the target of the attack. Then today threats? Do people want a police state or something, because the government can give them one if they want.

In the meantime, we escaped. We are in Saskatchewan, after passing this sign in Plentywood, Montana this afternoon:

That way. Raymond is the border crossing. Regina is Saskatchewan’s second largest city.

I corrupted my libertarian wife: we stopped for the night in Bengough, Sask., after travelling through the magnificent Big Muddy Valley on the recommendation of a fellow here.

I corrupted her with poutine in the restaurant here, then suggested she would turn into a common Ted Cruz.

She did not hit me with her bottle of Pilsner upside the head over that remark.

Folk are quite friendly; I still have my Sanders sticker on my car (I have not yet received a Clinton sticker). One fellow noted it was too bad he didn’t win, but Clinton would be an excellent President. I noted I would rather see a boulder elected than Mr. Trump, and if he is elected he might see us again soon.

Numerous people in the bar came up and introduced themselves (apparently they don’t get too many people from out-of-town here).

re: #208 Great White Snark
That looks like a Desert Mallow Sphaeralcea ambigua. Funny that you found it up so high. We have an escapee growing in our Santa Monica Mountains at 900 feet. This flower is in the Hibiscus family - check out the style stigma anthers and compare it to a Hibiscus.
Nice capture!
