Music • Views: 31,002

YouTube

Here’s a terrific new guitarist (new to me, anyway!) with a really impressive live performance. Check out the sections in which he stows the pick away somewhere and unleashes some amazing finger-picking technique.

Mais um episódio do Two Tone Sessions, dessa vez registrando a gravação do EP ao vivo do Andre Nieri em 04/03/2016, com uma formação no estilo “Power Trio” com Bruno Valverde na bateria e Junior Braguinha no Baixo.

On another political board I occasionally visit, one of the resident Trumpers was convinced Portmans wife had punched HERSELF in the eye just to get back at him for…something because apparently that’s just how women are.

The dude in question is also an MRA. I reported the posts but the moderation on that particular site is pretty piss poor.

Ben Stein has always been a RepubliKKKlan apologist. According to him, RepubliKKKlans can do no wrong. And also being a RepubliKKKlan apologist, he probably blamed that victim’s black eye on Obama just like Fuckwad Jeanne Pirro did!

Nehlen putting the image of the (reconstructed face) of “Cheddar Man” on a woman’s picture is typically boorish of his ilk.

But the idea that Cheddar Man is somehow revolutionary is a misunderstanding.

Previous ancient DNA testing has already shown that pre-farming inhabitants of western Europe were indeed brown-skinned people. Some had blue eyes, yes, but still brown skin.

As I have kids, I like that schools have some of these sponsored events. Yes, it’s awkward (I went to more than one as a kid). But that’s school. But they need some social interaction outside of class. I’ve made my kids go to them, though I didn’t expect them to dance.

Now, the thing about forcing a girl to accept? That’s messed up. But I bet you that rule has been around longer than most of us have been alive. It’s just become an issue because it was finally pushed back on.

Nice to live in a state with an Insurance Commissioner who isn’t bought off by the Pimp CEO’s!

California’s insurance commissioner has launched an investigation into Aetna after learning a former medical director for the insurer admitted under oath he never looked at patients’ records when deciding whether to approve or deny care.

California Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones expressed outrage after CNN showed him a transcript of the testimony and said his office is looking into how widespread the practice is within Aetna.

“If the health insurer is making decisions to deny coverage without a physician actually ever reviewing medical records, that’s of significant concern to me as insurance commissioner in California — and potentially a violation of law,” he said.

The article says:

Prior to the dance, which is voluntary, students are told to fill out a card by selecting five people they want to dance with. The administration says if there’s someone on the card you feel uncomfortable with, the student is encouraged to speak up.

It’s not really clear, but is seems to mean the dance is not a required event.

Stay classy Ben.

Seeing you and others mention Stein reminded me of something I found on YouTube a few weeks back. Got to talking about local political shows and was yakking about Cleveland’s first woman anchor, Dorothy Fuldheim.

Here is a YouTube of her on William Buckley’s Firing Line…with a young Ben Stein.

For history’s sake if you will. It’s the full hour show. But you can see Ben about 2:00 in. TV the way it used to be…but some things never change.

re: #39 Aussie Apocalypse

I actually see what they are trying to do and that is to avoid girls on one side of the room, boys on the other for the whole dance which is what always happens for kids that age. It’s just really heavy handed and puts the kids in terribly awkward positions by trying to force them into behavior they aren’t ready for yet.

When I was in junior high they offered cotillion, completely opt-in if you wanted to, and there was a dance instructor to teach us ballroom dances. It was a lot of fun for all of us who did it. Still didn’t prevent the boys on one side, girls on the other for the general school dances though.

I stand with those who are appalled by the glorification of the North Korean “diplomatic” victory at the games. I hope something good comes of it, for sure. But this is an incredibly brutal regime, and if any of their athletes fucks up it could have dire implications for not only the athlete buy his or her family. This goes back a long way, at least to the 1966 World Cup team that was on the verge of winning and then partied a little too hard in London before losing. Star players went to the concentration camps. The North has little to lose; the South, a lot, if the North gets to start dictating terms of re-engagement or unification.

My first school dance was in 9th grade, junior high.
I was the new kid in school and still maneuvering my way through the small town social web…No one asked me to dance.
Later in the evening, one of the guitar players in the band left the stage, came over to my table and asked me to dance.
It was a slow dance.

It was the best dance of my life.

And that guitar player kept in touch with me, sending letters and postcards from the road tour.

There’s not. I think the closest ER very is two hours away.

She’s been acting weird since yesterday morning. It wasn’t as bad as it is now. That just started.

She’s laying down now and is comfortable. My other dog, whom she is always bothering (she’s deaf, we rescued her a couple of years ago. She had a very rough life before we got her and she latched onto Sam as her ears, comfort, everything.) is snuggled up to her right now. He’s comforting her.

She’s a very old dog. We’ve been trying for six months just to keep weight in her. She has a bad heart and has been on heart meds since we got her. I’m not surprised. We’ve seen her failing a little bit and then a little bit more for a while. She was just at the vet two weeks ago for blood labs.

She’s also one of the sweetest dogs I’ve ever had.

This is the part of dog companionship we hate the most. We’ll see what the very says tomorrow. I’m thinking she’ll get some McDonald’s on the way to the vet. Just because.

This is pretty nutshell

The ability to tap anger in others was another of Trump’s gifts, and made him, uniquely in the field of Republican candidates, suited to what Bannon saw as the task at hand: Trump was himself angry. The deepest parts of him are angry and dark, Bannon told Wolff. Exactly what Trump has to be angry about was unclear. He’s had all of life’s advantages. Yet he acts like a man who has been cheated once too often, and is justifiably outraged. What Bannon loved was the way Trump sounded when he was angry. He’d gone to the best schools, but he had somehow emerged from them with the grammar and diction of an uneducated person. “The vernacular,” Bannon called Trump’s odd way of putting things. Other angry people, some of whom actually had been cheated by life, thrilled to its sound.

When I was back in Chicago selling my house a couple of months back, we saw a guy walking his tortoise. We were driving by and did a double take and backed up to see if we saw what we thought we saw.

Hubby got out and chatted him up. He’d had it for like 35 years. He’d gotten it as a teenager at a pet shop and it was the size of a turtle when he got it. It was about the size of Army Helmet when we saw it. Not sure who he was going to will it to.

That’s good to hear. The last dog who passed away on my watch glided softly in her sleep, early in the morning; I was up and there was no sound or struggle. So I’m spoiled, and nervous.

I think my dog had a stroke. She’s lost her motor skills and is wobbling as she walks. She keeps falling down. She’s 15.

We’re going to the vet first thing in the morning. 😢

Could be a stroke, but most likely it’s going to be vestibular.

Opinion: The Christian Who Cried Abortion (goes to Huffington Post)

The author notes that Christians who are single-issue voters to the exclusion of all else are undermining Christian faith in the interest of advancing that issue.

The American church faces a similar issue of credibility [to the boy who cried “wolf”]―in outspokenly crying out for anti-abortion policies, they reveal their lack of credibility in engaging in a more holistic pursuit of life for all. The American church is compromised by its single-issue martyrdom complex that asserts political moral superiority based on a commitment to “pro-life” politics, while being attached to a Republican party that espouses anti-life policy and rhetoric at every turn.

Single-issue voters are people who, in being passionate about a particular issue, are willing to cast their vote for a candidate based on that position alone. The problem for conservative Christians who do this is that Jesus didn’t espouse a single-issue politic and the commitment to anti-abortion policy is revealing both a fundamental misunderstanding of the holistic healing and the teachings of Jesus.)

Interesting. Thank you. She has no other symptoms. She eats and drinks. If we’re offer her anything she’ll eat it.

Since she’s a Boston terrier we don’t generally clean ears unless it’s needed (they get lots of air through them naturally).

The biggest issue now is keeping her off the stairs and jumping on the couch. Hubby is sleeping on the couch downstairs and the gate is up. She fell down the last the couple of steps twice (she loves to sleep in bed with us).

She seems disoriented, too, like she wants something but doesn’t know what.

She’s sleeping now and we’ll hit the vet as soon as they open at 9 am.

The Founders were men of their times.

Secularism was an asset because they were looking at the recent history of Europe, the longer history of Europe, and the way that religion in the colonies could replicate those tensions.

The were also men of their times in that abolitionism was a present thought, and anti-racism was occasionally entertained, but the countervaling opinions were very strong.

I mean, that’s what sucks about basically everybody in history (barring a few true radicals): they were shaped by the environment.

re: #229 teleskiguy

Washington was not the only Virginian to make provisions to free his slaves during this period. In 1782, toward the end of the American Revolution, the Virginia legislature made it legal for slave holders to manumit their slaves, without a special action of the governor and council.

Of the 317 slaves at Mount Vernon in 1799, 123 individuals were owned by George Washington and were stipulated in Washington’s will to be freed upon his wife’s death. However, these conditions did not apply to all slaves at Mount Vernon. When Martha Washington’s first husband Daniel Parke Custis died without a will, she received a life interest in one-third of his estate, including his slaves. The other two-thirds of the estate went to their children.

Neither George nor Martha Washington could free these dower slaves by law. Upon her death the slaves would revert to the Custis estate and be divided among her grandchildren. By 1799, 153 slaves at Mount Vernon were part of this dower property. Forty more slaves were rented from a neighbor, while another man, Peter Hardiman, was rented from the widow of Martha Washington’s son. All these people would eventually return to their owners.

In accordance with state law, George Washington stipulated in his will that elderly slaves or those who were too sick to work were to be supported throughout their lives by his estate. Children without parents, or those whose families were unable to see to their education were to be bound out to masters and mistresses who would teach them reading, writing, and a useful trade, until they were ultimately freed at the age of twenty-five. Washington’s will stated that he took these charges to his executors very seriously: “And I do moreover most pointedly, and most solemnly enjoin it upon my Executors…to see that this clause respecting Slaves, and every part thereof be religiously fulfilled at the Epoch at which it is directed to take place; without evasion, neglect or delay, after the Crops which may then be on the ground are harvested, particularly as it respects the aged and infirm.”

In December 1800, Martha Washington signed a deed of manumission for her deceased husband’s slaves, a transaction that is recorded in the abstracts of the Fairfax County, Virginia, Court Records. They would finally become free on January 1, 1801.

Local news, a church was given an exemption to property taxes.

starherald.com

The Scotts Bluff County Commissioners granted a tax exemption to Gering Bible Missionary Church for its 2016 back taxes.

The church, which failed to apply for tax-exempt status in 2016, was taxed for $5,587.16. County Assessor Amy Ramos said she had attempted to contact the church by mail and phone before the late-filing deadline on June 30, 2016. After the deadline, Ramos said the county had no authority to exempt the church’s taxes.

“As far as state statutes are concerned,” she said, “there’s nothing we can do at this point.”

Ramos added that the responsibility to pay taxes lies ultimately with the property owner.

From reading here and at the link that’s exactly what happened to my spaniel. He would circle and circle and make me crazy with it. When I took him to the vet he didn’t say anything about vestibular syndrome, said he thought it was likely a brain tumor which I see can also be a cause. My kid was also quite senile and had had eye issues, all of which started about the same time. What I called seizures weren’t violent, more like he would just suddenly start to lean, be non-responsive, stare blindly, wobble (a friend who was here the first time it happened said he looked and acted like he was drugged) and then slip into an essentially comatose state for about an hour. I would hold him and say goodbye, thinking this is it. Then he’d open his eyes, yawn and want dinner. He’d be a little weak for a short while then it was like nothing happened at all.
