Overnight Open Thread (8-5-2015)Courtesy of The Daily Mail, a story for our times, with something for almost everyone: The term 'wolf in sheep's clothing' captures an important truth: an effective way to leverage power is by assuming the status of a victim. A culture of victimhood is inherent to political correctness. It is through this victimhood, ultimately, that the tribal hatred of its advocates are nourished, and the dignity of its opponents are undermined. "A time is coming when men will go mad, and when they see someone who is not mad, they will attack him, saying, 'You are mad; you are not like us.'" It's the big wedding episode.

It's all over the wires: Puerto Rico has defaulted on its $58 million payment to creditors of its Public Finance Corporation, which was due by the end of day. San Juan's treasury only managed to scrape together some $628,000 towards the total. The government had tried to argue that the PFC bonds were of a different category-and had a different legal status-than general obligation debt. Credit rating agencies rejected the argument. "Moody's views this event as a default", Moody's analyst Emily Raimes said in a statement, according to Reuters. "This is a first in what we believe will be broad defaults on commonwealth debt." Murders Rising in Major Cities Across the US The Making Of A Yet Another Almost SJW Martyr Dash and body cams are the natural enemy of wild SJWs.

Don't marry her. The Waco Biker Gang Shootout Case Gets Stranger and Stranger It's been over two months since a shootout at a Waco, TX restaurant left nine people dead and 18 wounded yet no forensics reports have been released and everyone involved in the case even peripherally still is under a gag order. Finally Ending the Hospice 'Cruel Choice' The Teen Who Exposed a Professor's Myth Apparently the Google and local library microfilms are tools unavailable to professional academics. In 2002, University of Illinois-Chicago history professor Richard J. Jensen printed "No Irish Need Apply: A Myth of Victimization." His abstract begins: How a 1913 Fistfight Led to Mandarin Becoming China's National Language How to Build a Classic Adirondack Chair and Enjoy Lounging the Rest of Summer This is very tempting to try although I do think some of the steps can be simplified. Does Drinking Alcohol Actually Kill Brain Cells? Short answer: No. Researchers at Washington University in St. Louis found that alcohol, even when applied directly to neurons, didn't kill them. It just interfered with the way they transmit information. Specifically, the researchers showed that alcohol causes certain receptors on neurons to manufacture steroids that inhibit memory formation.
