Gee who would have thought that telling African American voters their lives are awful and they should vote for David Duke’s choice candidate was a losing strategy.

I watch the two major electronic markets to see the quick-response effects of events. IEM is the gold standard, and quite stable. PredictIt is weird, largely because it has a massive comment section. That has attracted partisans and ideologues hardly more sophisticated than Freepers. As a result, not all of its bettors are trying for a rational gain on their bets—some are betting their passions. The two markets diverged notably before the first debate, but are mostly reconciled now.

It was the same during 2012, some big money Romney backers saw flooding Intrade’s market as a cheap way of boosting his perceived chances. Basically the issue is that the most visible election betting markets aren’t very fluid, there just isn’t enough people or money involved to prevent those who see it as a bargain basement form of advertising from moving the needle.

re: #18 PhillyPretzel

I have a 1943 steel cent.

Wartime needs led to changes in the material used in a number of things. For one, US watch companies had come to rely on Swiss jewel makers, so Elgin,Hamilton and others had to start making their own again.

Also, nickel was apparently hard to come by, so Elgin and others went back to the finishing method they’d abandoned by the turn of the 20th Century - gilding.

On the left, a 1943 Elgin Railroad watch with gilded movement. On the right, a 1946 version, with the nickel-plating used for all but 2 years during the war.

I just love how The Donald is worried about the voting being rigged when it may very well be he and the hackers he may be working with (Russians?) that are possibly messing with the works.

Did everyone hear that Newsweek’s site went down yesterday due to a DDoS attack after the new revelations about Trump maybe working illegally with Cuba?

ARS Technica - Did attackers take down Newsweek because of an anti-Trump story?

Newsweek suspects that attackers took down its site for hours on Thursday in order to bury a story about a company that Donald Trump owned decades ago. The magazine claims that the company secretly did business in Cuba, even though that was illegal at the time.

Newsweek Editor-in-Chief Jim Impoco told Politico:

We don’t know everything. We’re still investigating. But it was a massive DDoS attack, and it took place in the early evening just as prominent cable news programs were discussing Kurt Eichenwald’s explosive investigation into how Donald Trump’s company broke the law by breaking the United States embargo against Cuba.
A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack came, the newsmagazine suggests, in response to its cover story, “How Donald Trump’s company violated the United States embargo against Cuba.”

Details about the volume of the attack or what made it sophisticated were not immediately available. On Friday, Eichenwald described it as “a major attack on Newsweek.” Later in the afternoon, Eichenwald tweeted, “Lots of IP addresses involved. Main ones from Russia.”

In an e-mail to Ars, Impoco reiterated that the publication is “still investigating” and that investigators have “nothing definitive. As with any DDoS attack, there are a lot of IP addresses, but the main ones are Russian.” He said it remains too early to say what significance, if any, comes from the large number of Russian IPs.

The IPs involved in a DDoS rarely say much about the parties perpetrating the attack, because the addresses are usually connected to computers that have been hacked and are participating in the assault without the end users’ knowledge. Exceptions occasionally exist, however, as was the case a few years ago when members of the Anonymous hacking collective actively used software known as the Low Orbit Ion Cannon to disrupt government and corporate websites.

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has blamed recent hacks on Russia, including one on the Democratic National Committee. Republican presidential candidate Trump said it could be China or “someone sitting on their bed that weighs 400 pounds.”

From the “For those of you who were offended by —————- remarks, please accept my sincere apology” file.

Financial group forced to issue apology after Giuliani delivers racist comments at dinner

According to the New York Observer — a paper published by Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner — Giuliani made comments about the kitchen staff working the dinner at New York’s Waldorf Astoria Hotel where the dinner was held.

…….

According to an attendee, Giuliani’s comments were met with silence.

“Rudy talked about immigration and made a really, really inappropriate comment about the quote-unquote Mexicans in the kitchen at the Waldorf,” the attendee said. “It was bad. You could hear a pin drop. I think he was looking for applause.”

The apology came one day after the International Council of Shopping Centers axed Giuliani as their keynote speaker at their annual conference after members complained about his rhetoric while on the campaign trail for GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump.

Yeah, she’s definitely in the basket.

The first time she had seen him, at a rally in June, she was just beginning to realize how many people saw the world the way she did, that she was one among millions. At the time, her hips were still sore from a series of injections intended to calm her. She had gotten them in February, during a difficult time in her life, when she had been involuntarily hospitalized for several weeks after what she called a “rant,” a series of online postings that included one saying that Obama should be hanged and the White House fumigated and burned to the ground. On her discharge papers, in a box labeled “medical problem,” a doctor had typed “homicidal ideation.”

What Happens to Your DNA When Holy Spirit and Your Human Spirit Merge

Recently God gave me a vision of what happens to us at salvation and it radically altered the way I see myself. I saw the moment God encountered Mary in Luke 1:31-35 telling her she would bear the Christ Child. I saw the person of the Holy Spirit overshadow her. I saw Mary’s DNA and the Holy Spirit’s DNA. I saw them intertwine and become one, creating Jesus in her womb, fully God and fully man.

With the exception of my Great-Grandmother (From Norway/Sweden), my dad’s side kept marrying, even when in the US, people from the same area along the Northern Coasts and eastern areas of Groningen Province in the Netherlands, across the border into western parts of East Frisia in Germany.

Except for my Great-Grandmother, no one on my dad’s side married anyone outside of a 180-ish km radius of Groningen. This explains the Autism’s origin. My dad’s side of the Genetic pool is about the size of a teacup.

re: #176 teleskiguy

Drumpfskind clearly believes he’s superior to others, and while he uses the word “gene” he probably really doesn’t understand the concept.

This came up yesterday (or was it the day before) when HuffPo ran an article crying “EUGENICS!” in regards to Drumpfskind.

But HuffPo has cried ‘EUGENICS!’ before and I see that word tossed around all too easily.

Drumpfskind is bad because he does bad things, says horrible things, encourages hate and bigotry. We don’t have to try and gin up more reasons by dredging up hot-button words from the past.

Decided to check Fark to see if there was a thread on the Hillary recording, since the Bros had a good thing going back when Bernie was still in the race and have been nursing a serious grudge in the comments since.

So yes, there is a thread. And the consensus? The Bros need to shut the fark up because they’re being totally unreasonable about her remarks as everything she said was totally accurate. You have Bernie fans who are saying now that they understand why Hillary supporters were angry at the Bros.

This is why I foresee Johnson’s actual poll numbers next month not rising above 5%, because the Bros are so bitter that they’re going to drive a lot of people who otherwise might have vote for him back into the Hillary camp.

Nope. It makes sense that he’s using Stones’s songs that they don’t want him to use. Making the crowd wait was a classic Stones ploy. They often came on two to three hours late in the late 60s early 70s.

Yes, because he was there on site, supposedly. He walked in and apologized because he, he said, he had to go around to all the overflow rooms to talk to the folks who didn’t get into the main hall.

It was an amazing thing to see. I drove in and the parking lot was full of Cadillac Escapades and Lexus SUVs. I told everyone I knew who cared that Trump would win the primaries after witnessing that night: it WAS NOT WHITE TRASH that was propelling him, it was and is wealthy whites who want to cling to their privileged understanding of America at all costs. I know that is at odds with the view that the alt-right is pushing this, but they are really coat-tail followers. Trumps’s main supporters are gated community olds who hate everything.
