His drumming reminds me of Buddy Miles on Hendrix’ ‘Band of Gypsies’ record - nothing at all flashy, but laying down ridiculously funky grooves.
(I’ve been told that Hendrix hated Miles’ work on that album, but I don’t think most of that material would have worked had Jimi’s drumer of choice Mitch Mitchell played on it.)
Right wing media and hacks like @JackPosobiec are pushing another blatant lie: that the Polish “Independence Day” march had nothing to do with fascism. It was organized by the “National Radical Camp,” an antisemitic neo-Nazi group. That’s who Posobiec is trying to white-wash.

What the Breitbart crowd seem to be doing now is trying to address the reality that they are revealing themselves as a pack of power-hungry fuckers by trying to change the narrative to “These poor women were forced to tell lies by the librul media!” Acknowledge they’re victims, but insist that their stories are actually being twisted or even rewritten by the press to make Moore look like a sexual predator when really he was just a lonely guy looking for a companion. That it wasn’t unusual back then for an older man to “date” younger women, and we can’t judge past behavior by today’s morals. And that the media should have respected these women by keeping their secrets rather than using them to attack Moore.

I don’t consider it a coincidence that Bannon seems to be focusing his efforts on Leigh Corfman, as her being under the age of consent of the day makes their efforts to defend Moore so difficult. “Discredit” her and the rest can be played off as they’ve been trying, i.e. saying Moore was just into “younger women” at the time and it wasn’t strange for men in Alabama at the time to pursue “women” much younger than them.

Something that makes you go: “Hmmmmmmmm”……
The Russians identified by Papadopoulos, he told the FBI, were tricksters. One, a professor, was “just a guy talk[ing] up connections or something”. According to Papadopoulos, he believed the individual was “BS’ing to be completely honest with you.”. The FBI investigation, and Mueller’s conclusion, are that these statements are criminal lies.
Official Russian interest by Chaika and the security services is now focusing on the three Russian individuals whom Papadopoulos identified, but whose names are being kept secret by the US government. The first was a Russian professor “based in London…[who] claimed to have substantial connections with Russian government officials”. US reporters investigating this individual have pinpointed him as a Maltese, with a job at a university in Scotland, and a record of one visit to Russia and one to the Russian Embassy in London. To an American ear, the professor’s Maltese accent may sound Russian.
The second was “a certain female Russian national” whom Papadopoulos told his Trump campaign supervisors was “Putin’s niece”. The third, according to the court papers, was “an individual in Moscow (the ‘Russian MFA Connection’) who told defendant PAPADOPOULOS he had connections to the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (‘MF A’). The MFA is the executive entity in Russia responsible for Russian foreign relations. Over the next several weeks, defendant PAPADOPOULOS and the Russian MFA Connection had multiple conversations over Skype and email about setting ‘the groundwork’ for a ‘potential’ meeting between the Campaign and Russian government officials.”
In fact, according to the newly released US evidence, Papadopoulos was lying to the Trump campaign about the connections, influence, and significance of the three Russian contacts. It turns out, according to the FBI, that noone was related to Putin; the Russian contacts were unable to arrange an official invitation for either Papadopoulos or Trump to visit Russia, or even the Russian Embassy in London.
Papadopoulos has pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI when he failed to reveal that he had lied to a senior member of the Trump campaign organization in an email of April 26, 2016, in which he claimed: “The Russian government has an open invitation by Putin for Mr. Trump to meet him when he is ready… The advantage of being in London is that these governments tend to speak a bit more openly in ‘neutral’ cities.”
Papadopoulos has also pleaded guilty to lying to the FBI by concealing that he had been told by his contact on April 26 that the professor had returned from a trip to Moscow where ” he had met with high level Russian government officials.” Papadopoulos didn’t ask for the names, and didn’t report checking them before telling Trump headquarters. That’s because Papadopoulos wanted to be believed by Trump more than he cared if the professor was telling him the truth.
According to the FBI, “the Professor told defendant PAPADOPOULOS that on that trip he (the Professor) learned that the Russians had obtained ‘dirt’ on then-candidate Clinton. The Professor told defendant PAPADOPOULOS, as defendant PAPADOPOULOS later described to the FBI, that ‘they [the Russians] have dirt on her’; ‘the Russians had emails of [Hillary] Clinton’; ‘they have thousands of emails.’”
It didn’t occur to Papapopoulos, the Trump campaign chiefs, the FBI, Prosecutor Mueller or the Justice Department to check whether the “dirt on Clinton”, the “emails of Clinton”, and the “thousands of emails”, were openly accessible after their publication commenced by Wikileaks on March 16, 2016; that was five weeks before the “Professor” went to Moscow to discover what had already appeared in London and Washington on the internet. Read the Wikileaks archive, starting here. The Wikileaks publications included some 30,000 emails and more than 50,000 document pages covering the period from June 2010 to August 2014.But Wikileaks wasn’t the first to disclose the dirt and the Clinton emails. The US Department of State had begun the disclosure in May of 2015, when a media-led Freedom of Information Act request led to the opening of Clinton’s Secretary of State files, and when newspapers across the country began publishing them. Read more of the dirt Russian officials announced they had on Clinton from years earlier by clicking here.
Russian sources close to Chaika say they cannot prosecute the “Professor” for revealing what the State Department and Wikileaks had already started to publish. Nor, the sources add, is it a crime under Russian law for a Russian living in London to speak to an American.
For admitting he concealed this from his superiors in the Trump organization, and then from the FBI, Papadopoulos is now facing at least six months in jail. Russian sources say that what is now a jailing offence in the US cannot be a crime in Russia if the evidence substantiates that lies were passed about lies. According to Mueller’s prosecution of Papadopoulos, “in truth and in fact, however, defendant PAPADOPOULOS understood the Professor to have substantial connections to high-level Russian government officials and that the Professor spoke with some of those officials in Moscow before telling defendant PAPADOPOULOS about the ‘dirt.’ “. Russian sources say there is no evidence the “Professor” has the connections he claimed. They add the US court papers prove this by revealing that none of the meetings Papadopoulos requested of his Russian contacts materialized.
Russian sources say the release of the US prosecutor’s indictment of Paul Manafort and Richard Gates III is of next to no interest to Russian prosecutors. This, they say, is because there is no evidence and no charge that any Russian person, source of Russian money, Russian publication or Russian government entity was involved in the activities for which Manafort and Gates have been indicted.

So from my earlier post: I was successful in frying home-cut French fries. They turned out amazing. I soaked them in water in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, drained and dried them, fried them for 5 minutes at 300 degrees F, 5 minutes more at 375 degrees F, and they came out crispy and golden. I tossed them with sea salt and they were every bit as good as fries out of a bag or from a restaurant. It’s a lot of prep work, but I’m so glad to finally be successful in making crispy, tasty home fries.
re: #33 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.
Alright, I’m going to do it. I’m going to try to finally come through with properly crispy home-cut French fries. We’ll see how this goes.

After the first fry, mine wound up resting for about 10-15 minutes before I turned the temp up and getting the second fry. I’ve heard reports that this helps them get crispier, but as this is the first time trying with this method, I don’t know if it was that or if it was the soak/low fry/high fry combination.

My suggestion would be 2 reasons
1. Drying the raw potatoes

re: #194 fern01
My suggestion would be 2 reasons

2. the second fry (this is handy also if the fries are part of a meal - cook them early then do the second fry just before serving)Not sure which is the most important. We never bothered with the soaking - I’ve not heard that option before. (Never too old to learn something new about home made fries)
I’ve double-fried them before, but never gotten them truly crispy. The soaking is supposed to knock some of the starch off the exposed surface; most of the recipes I’ve read say to either rinse them or soak them, then pat them dry. It’ll be interesting to try this with sweet potato fries, where the word is that soaking is mandatory (and indeed, double-frying has not produced results for Mrs. Fish with her sweet potatoes thus far).
If you’re not too busy, would you mind going somewhere and having intercourse with yourself, you bigoted cretin? OK, thanks, bye now.

I don’t know. Probably not, same as the extremist rallies here aren’t representative of the majority of Americans. Nevertheless, my point is that Poland has a unique perspective on the optics of racism and genocide. They were conquered by the Nazis and their territory used as a killing ground for millions.

Bashing the Jewish faith has a long and ignominious tradition in Christianity whenever people or governments needed a scapegoat for their problems.
One of the great failings of Martin Luther was when he made his break with the Catholic Church, he could have also broken with the anti-Semitism. Instead he doubled down on that, and Germany was primed by it for someone like Hitler to take advantage of it.

It’s so stupid to me. The Bible doesn’t declare any explicit anti-Semitism; in fact, usually the people who hate the Jews wind up getting smited by God or some other equally gruesome fate. If you’re going to blame someone and want to have a vaguely plausible reason for it, you should probably pick some group other than the one that literally wrote the book you espouse as the holy book of your religion.

The best I can tell it is the passages about Jesus being turned over to the Pharisees (the fundamentalists of their day) that causes that (along with a handy minority scapegoat).
During the Inquisition many Jewish people fled to the lands held by the Ottoman Empire, where that nation took them under protection.

Especially in Poland. Not that I want start trafficking in cultural stereotypes, but blaming “The Jews” for any and all problems in the country is a long-time tradition in Poland. Along with being obsessively Catholic to the point of being priest-ridden. No surprise that the latest iteration of “nationalists” wallow in the same trough of bigotry.

re: #178 Quoth the raven, Covfefe.
So from my earlier post: I was successful in frying home-cut French fries. They turned out amazing. I soaked them in water in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, drained and dried them, fried them for 5 minutes at 300 degrees F, 5 minutes more at 375 degrees F, and they came out crispy and golden. I tossed them with sea salt and they were every bit as good as fries out of a bag or from a restaurant. It’s a lot of prep work, but I’m so glad to finally be successful in making crispy, tasty home fries.
If you like McDonald’s fries, add a teaspoon of sugar to the water when soaking. POPS that golden color.

Well, reading the case file on the toddler assault case cited above, the teen who did it did not appeal the actual assault and went to jail for it. It would appear that Roy Moore’s dissent was that there was no evidence of vigorous resistance in the case (the second charge of forcible rape).
That would be a failing of the law (requiring to show evidence of force and vigorous resistance, pretty much the Biblical standard for rape).
I am not a lawyer, but my understanding from rape victim advocacy groups and other such organisations is that unless you can get in a disabling blow or run away, then resistance will only cause you to be beaten or worse. (In other words, the laws in such states where “forcible rape” exists goes against what is known about how rapes actually work.)
Moreover, how the hell is a four-year-old supposed to resist a teenager anyway?
I don’t know the particulars of Alabama law (for example, if the court could have struck that down as a violation of the Federal or state constitutions).

Driftglass weighing in on the media again washing its hands of a Republican president’s failures, by divorcing the president and the party (see GW Bush the last time).
All Your Base Are Belong to Trump
Fellow Libtard snowflakes of a certain vintage may remember that, many years ago, as the Bush Regime collapsed and the sheer tonnage of the disasters it had left in its wake began to dawn on even the most belligerently apathetic citizens, most of the Beltway media suddenly fell into a giddy swoon over the sudden disappearance of millions of Republican voters (who had energetically cheered on those disasters) and the sudden and simultaneous appearance of millions of newly minted “independents”.
Of course, to the untutored Libtard eye, this was obviously nothing but an insultingly bare-faced hoax (from me, long ago) —
Most newly minted “independents” seem to be little more than Republicans who are fleeing the scene of their crime, but at the same time still desperately want believe in the inerrant wisdom of Rush Limbaugh. They are completely incapable of facing the horrifying reality that they have gotten every single major political opinion and decision of their adult lives completely wrong, so instead they double-down on their hatred of women and/or gays and/or brown people and/or Liberals, and blame them for the miserable fuckpit their leaders and their policies have made of their lives and futures.
Like German soldiers after the fall of Berlin, they have stopped running away from the catastrophe they created only long enough to burn their uniforms.
