Wednesday Overnight Open Thread (1/8/20)
"This was an educational opportunity at a major research university. It's just unfortunate that the university did not take advantage of this educational opportunity. Instead, they chose to follow a punitive process, which doesn't really help anybody. I could have easily dealt with this, if I had been afforded that opportunity. They made a snap judgment and really trampled the reasonable processes we have in place here."Catherine West Lowry
“The newer machines, any time something breaks, you’ve got to have a computer to fix it. That goes against the pride of ownership, plus your lifetime of skills you’ve built up being able to fix things,” Mark Stock
“Patients have this perception – and it’s probably because we’ve given it to them – that this is life-sustaining treatment that can just go on forever. But the fact is it doesn’t preserve life forever. You get this awful trajectory of spiralling down for patients.” Dr. Sara Davison
“If you don’t do it, who’s going to do it? And if you don’t do it now, when are you going to do it? So I said, ‘Okay, I’ll do it now" Elroy Jespersen of Richmond, British Colombia
In a very real sense, the missiles that we saw fired on U.S. servicemen and women tonight were paid for by the billions the Obama administration flooded the Ayatollah with. If history teaches anything, it’s don’t give billions of dollars to people who hate you and want to kill you.” Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)
If people can be persuaded to take climate action by talking about the economy, surely this means Democracy works? Eric Worrall
“This is an insult to women in technology. We did hard times in university, engineering, math, and applied sciences. This is what extreme privilege and entitlement get you. It’s not what you know it’s who you know I guess.” Investor Elisabeth Fullerton Quote VIII It was shocking that someone would try to tell me what I can and can’t fly in my own yard. Tawney Baccellia
Cardi B vowed on Friday to file for Nigerian citizenship, following news that President Donald Trump had ordered the air strike which led to the death of top Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani.
House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, accused House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of being “unfit for office” Tuesday after reports began to emerge suggesting she wasn’t being earnest with the public.
Iran is refusing to turn over Boeing 737 'black box'. I wonder what they are hiding? Update: More suspicious details have surfaced over the past few hours as investigators take the first hard look at the circumstances that caused a Boeing 737 to plunge out of the sky minutes after takeoff.
MSNBC Runs Iran’s Propaganda Piece Falsely Claiming 30 US Killed In Rocket Attack Christmas presents of gift cards burning a hole in your pocket? Purchase something unusual and perhaps practical, the BevBuckle. Have you ever been at a tailgate and wondered, “If only I had three hands I could hold my beer, my plate of hot hogs, and stream the game on my phone.” Well, you don’t have to pray and wish anymore. Meet the BevBuckle, a hands-free drink holder that also doubles as a belt buckle. It’s a Texas dream come true. The BevBuckle not your thing? Maybe this is the thing you want. Elections have consequences. It appears that Virginia gun owners are going to take it good and hard. Virginia Democrats have introduced a revised ban on so-called “assault weapons” that requires existing gun owners to register their firearms with the state, and also bans outright the possession of magazines that can hold more than ten rounds as well as a ban on suppressors and “trigger activators”.
Amsterdam is filled with beautiful architecture, long twisting canals, and a rich history. While many tourists come for these draws, some are more interested in the Red Light District and the legal marijuana. The Red Light Secrets Museum of Prostitution tackles the former, and informs visitors about the lives of sex workers and the history of the district.
Do you feel like retiring? 'Quit Your Job And Live Abroad: 10 Places So Cheap You Might Be Able To Stop Working' It’s 2020, which means you can clearly see what’s ahead. This is the year to live the dream: Quit your day job and move to a foreign country where it costs so little you might never have to work another day in your life. In 2019, 2018 and 2017, I provided plenty of temptation by examining the cheapest places to live around the globe. For 2020, I again tapped into International Living, which releases an Annual Global Retirement Index of the top places to retire. But don’t think this list is limited to retirees: It's also for people who want to move to a place where the cost of living is much cheaper than in the U.S.—so cheap, in fact, that you might not have to work.
Goodbye. After 70 years the VW Beetle is being retired. A nostalgic look back..... After 70 years, the Volkswagen Beetle is retiring. Once upon a time, my father moved my family from Paradise to Sacramento to become the manager of the only Volkswagon franchise in Northern California. Years later he told me that when he would pull up at stoplights in the Beetle people would look at the Beetle and burst out laughing and he’d feel sick that he’d staked his family’s well-being on the Beetle.
Loosing federal workers isn't such a bad thing. Your odds of being audited are getting lower. Taxpayers are half as likely to be audited by the Internal Revenue Service as they were a decade ago following a sharp reduction in staff over the past several years.
On this day: 8 Jan 1935 Born on this day: 8 Jan 1941
Incensed that she would have to pay extra for dipping sauce, a McDonald’s customer threatened to “rob” the restaurant and warned that she would get the condiments “by whatever means necessary,” according to Florida police.
Be careful what you wish for. In Kentucky, authorities have arrested a man they say expressed a desire to go to jail to support his jailed girlfriend.
Kenya’s Tsavo West National Park is rich in wildlife, however, the land has been left dry and hot due to lack of rain over the past few years.
