Wednesday Overnight Open Thread (4/5/17) You Get What You Pay For Addition (No, Not Really)Quotes of The Day Quote I Some people die at 25 and aren't buried until 75. Benjamin Franklin Quote II Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.Benjamin Franklin Quote III Guests, like fish, begin to smell after three days. Benjamin Franklin Quote IV Where sense is wanting, everything is wanting. Benjamin Franklin
Tonight's History Lesson. Benjamin Franklin writes letter to Lord North. Was Franklin the first Moron? My Lord, All your small Politicians, who are very numerous in the English Nation, from the patriotic Barber to the patriotic Peer, when big with their Schemes for the Good of poor Old England, imagine they have a Right to give Advice to the Minister, and condemn Administration if they do not adopt their Plan. I, my Lord, who have no mean Opinion of my Abilities, which is justified by the Attention that is paid to me when I harangue at the Smyrna and Old Slaughter’s, am willing to contribute my Mite to the public Welfare; and have a Proposal to make to your Lordship, which I flatter myself will be approved of by the Ministry, and if carried into Execution, will quiet all the Disturbances in America, procure a decent Revenue from our Colonies, make our royal Master (at least there) a King de facto, as well as de jure; and finally, as it may be managed, procure a round Sum towards discharging the national Debt. Benjamin Franklin, truly a wise and gifted man. Sharing a pint with him would have been rather enjoyable.
The monkey was getting riled up by onlookers when it decided to take fecal matters into his own hands. The chimp scooped up some poop and tossed it in the direction of the visitors. The world is changing. And America's position in it is changing as well. .....Hayden is a retired U.S. Air Force general who was NSA director under Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, and then became Bush’s CIA chief in 2006. Mark Steyn, when isn't he spot on regarding our culture? The left doesn't want to win the debate. They want to cancel the debate. Let's just expand that "Somali-born activist" précis a little. She's not a dead white male like me or Charles Murray. As someone once said, Ayaan Hirsi Ali is everything the identity-group fetishists profess to dig: female, atheist, black, immigrant. But, because she does not toe the party line on Islam, her blackness washes off her like a bad dye job on a telly anchorman - and so do her femaleness and godlessness and immigrant status. And in the end she is Charles Murray, or Geert Wilders - or even David Duke. A black Somali woman is, it turns out, a "white supremacist".
1985, At 3:50pm GMT, over 5,000 radio stations worldwide aired the charity single by USA for Africa 'We Are The World'. The single went on to be a No.1 in the US & UK, and most Western territories. via thisdayinmusic.com
Hungary has approved a new law that could force a George Soros-financed university out of the country, despite widespread protests against the bill in Budapest. Senior GOP Senators have said that Judge Neil Gorsuch will be seated on the SCOTUS by week's end. The Democrats say not so fast. The GOP says go ahead and filibuster, we will strike with the "Nuclear Option". What is the "Nuclear Option" and how is it implemented? It's widely assumed that if Republicans can't get eight Democrats to vote in favor of cloture on Gorsuch this week, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) will trigger the so-called "nuclear option" and abolish the filibuster for Supreme Court nominees.
With bipartisan support, the bill, the Weather Research and Forecasting Innovation Act of 2017, has passed both chambers of Congress and now moves on to President Trump's desk. It seeks to improve the forecasting ability of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, including the National Weather Service. The bill has a particular emphasis on extreme weather, including working on tornado warning and hurricane forecast improvement, and weather satellite and data innovation.
In the winter of 1944, at the height of the Holocaust, Jewish photographer Henryk Ross buried a box of photographs in the ground. Just over a year later, he returned to unearth the photos, and the tragic story they told still resonates to this day.
The March for Science is having a tough time deciding whether the march should focus on “diversity and inclusion” or health and climate policy.
According to the news report, “the driver told officers he was walking the dog for a friend”—presumably now a former friend—and “agreed to never walk an animal in that manner again.” In addition to possible animal-cruelty charges, police said, doing this potentially violated reckless-driving laws.
