Joe Biden didn’t win. This is our Real President:
AND our beautiful REALFLOTUS.
This Stormwatch Monday Open Thread remains open – VERY OPEN – a place for everybody to post whatever they feel they would like to tell the White Hats, and the rest of the MAGA/KAG/KMAG world (with KMAG being a bit of both).
And yes, it’s Monday…again.
But we WILL get through it!!!
Possibly with some minor philosophical discussions…..
Possibly with some good times…..
And possibly with some screaming!
Dedication
WHEATIE – OUR WARRIOR ANGEL
by Duchess01
Please forgive us, Wheatie, we did not know
That you had left us with armor in tow
We had no idea with what you dealt
We did not know the pain you felt
And now we can only imagine
With you what really did happen
Cause rarely did you complain
And/or share your personal pain
Of one thing we are most certain
You are flying high behind the curtain
Watching over us above the crowds
Our Warrior Angel above the clouds
Thank You, Wheatie, for caring for us
While you were here among the fuss
We miss you dear you have no idea
Since time began in the pangaea
With you there was no time
In your wisdom you would chime
To clarify and magnify
The what where how and why
We did not question when you left
We were not slightly bereft
But over time we wondered why
You did not at least stop by
Now we know where you have gone
With the break of this new dawn
We could be angry but are not
Tho with an arrow we’ve been shot
Rest peacefully Warrior Angel dear
Send us a sign that you are near
A butterfly a flower a kiss of rain
From your love do not refrain
God sends Angels to watch over us
And now we have an Angel Plus
A Warrior Angel of Magnificence
From today and forward hence

The Rules
TL;DR –
Wheatie’s Rules:
- No food fights.
- No running with scissors.
- If you bring snacks, bring enough for everyone.
Boilerplate, more or less, but worth reading again and again, if only for the minor changes, and to stay out of moderation.
MINOR CHANGE NUMBER 1
Never talk about committing violence in a reply to Wolf or in response to anything Wolf has said, or you may get put into moderation so that your comments can be screened. This is ONLY because DHS is now playing door-knock Gestapo with people who have spoken at school board meetings, made public comments, etc. DHS regime jackboots are knocking on doors of school board mama bears and stupidly insinuating potential violence from things people say or don’t say on social media. A guy in Ohio pointed his FINGER at the school board, and they went after him, armed with pictures of the pointing, and screen captures of online comments. Yeah.
SO – give the Nazis ZERO ammo. Keep any mention of violence, even joking, away from Wolf, so that he doesn’t have to “explain” humor to humorless jackboots who pretend not to know things.
As for discussion of “violent humor” among yourselves (e.g., “#TeamHeadsOnPikes”), just use whatever discretion you think is appropriate for yourselves. I will only put you in moderation if your comments create problems for ME or THIS SITE, but not if they only impact you.
YOU are responsible for your own comments, if they come knocking. YOUR choice. Just remember this…..
OTHER THAN THAT…….
The bottom line is Free Speech. Theories and ideas you don’t agree with must be WELCOME here, and you must be part of that welcoming. But you do NOT need to be part of any agreement.
Bottom line – respect other people’s FIRST AMENDMENT RIGHTS.
Our only additional requirement is that you do so NICELY. Or at least try to make some effort in that direction.
SO….. [ENGAGE BOILERPLATE…..]
We must endeavor to persevere to love our frenemies – even here.
Those who cannot deal with this easy requirement will be forced to jump the hoops of moderation, so that specific comments impugning other posters and violating the minimal rules can be sorted out and tossed in the trash.
In Wheatie’s words, “We’re on the same side here so let’s not engage in friendly fire.”
That includes the life skill of just ignoring certain other posters.
We do have a site – The U Tree – where civility is not a requirement. Interestingly, people don’t really go there much. Nevertheless, if you find yourself in an “argument” that can’t really stay civil, please feel free to “take it to the U Tree”. The U Tree is also a good place to report any technical difficulties, if you’re unable to report them here. Please post your comment there on one of Wolf’s posts, or in reply to one of Wolf’s comments, to make sure he sees it (though it may take a few hours).
We also have a backup site, called The Q Tree as well, which is really The Q Tree 579486807. You might call it “Second Tree”. The URL for that site is https://theqtree579486807.wordpress.com/. If this site (theqtree.com) ever goes down, please reassemble at the Second Tree.
If the Second Tree goes down, please go to The U Tree, or to our Gab Group, which is located at https://gab.com/groups/4178.
We also have some “old rules” and important guidelines, outlined here, in a very early post, on our first New Year’s Day, in 2019. The main point is not to make violent threats against people, which then have to be taken seriously by law enforcement, and which can be used as a PRETEXT by enemies of this site.
In the words of Wheatie, “Let’s not give the odious Internet Censors a reason to shut down this precious haven that Wolf has created for us.”
A Moment of Prayer
Our policy on extreme religious freedom on this site is discussed HERE. Please feel free to pray and praise God anytime and anywhere.
Thus, please pray for our real President, the one who actually won the election.
You may also pray for our nation, our world, and even our enemies.
Musical Interlude
In honor of dear Wheatie, we now present some music to soothe, inspire, invigorate, or relax.
Bringing back some more old tunes from two years ago!

AHRRRRR, MATEY!
OK – one more LINUX MUSICAL MEME VIDEO for the road!
Call To Battle
Our beloved country is under Occupation by hostile forces.
Daily outrage and epic phuckery abound.
We can give in to despair…or we can be defiant and fight back in any way that we can.
Joe Biden didn’t win.
And we will keep saying Joe Biden didn’t win until we get His Fraudulency out of our White House.
Wolfie’s Wheatie’s Word of the Day Year Week:
binary
adjective
- Characterized by or consisting of two parts or components; twofold.
- Of or relating to a system of numeration having 2 as its base.
- Of or relating to a system of encoding data using only 0’s and 1’s.
Perl 5 Definition:
Having to do with numbers represented in base 2. That means there’s basically two numbers: 0 and 1. Also used to describe a file of “nontext”, presumably because such a file makes full use of all the binary bits in its bytes. With the advent of Unicode, this distinction, already suspect, loses even more of its meaning. https://perldoc.perl.org/perlglossary#binary
Woke Definition:
[Gender] Binary – This is the idea that people are born either male or female, with no other ways to identify – a viewpoint that excludes non-binary and transgender people. How can you dismantle this? Add your preferred pronouns to your email signature. That way, you’re helping to normalise gender discussions while signalling that you aren’t making assumptions about how other people identify. Which could potentially be seen as a sort of clicktivism, but we won’t go into that here.

New Schlichter —
https://townhall.com/columnists/kurtschlichter/2023/02/20/no-more-mr-nice-con-n2619715
He’s got a point.
… as in the top of his head?
PHC should never mean “pin-head conservative”!!! 😉
He’s a number of years late for this realization.
He got such backlash from his dissing POTUS Trump, he is now backpedaling. It is ALL ABOUT CLICKS aka Money
When Schlichter links show, I scroll on.
Schlichter is, clicks, money AND full of shit. Latter, THE problem.
IMO, Mr. Schlichter is full of “schlick”, “schtick”, and “schit.”
That’s why he’s a clueless bubble-boy.
He would never have even thought to oppose Trump if he was not existing in a bubble of never-Trump garbage in the first place.
To be that far out of touch with his own audience is to disqualify himself as relevant.
In his defense, he does live in Southern California. So there’s that.
I love words. They mean things.
The original meaning of “nice:”
nice (adj.)late 13c., “foolish, ignorant, frivolous, senseless,” from Old French nice (12c.) “careless, clumsy; weak; poor, needy; simple, stupid, silly, foolish,” from Latin nescius “ignorant, unaware,” literally “not-knowing,” from ne- “not” (from PIE root *ne- “not”) + stem of scire “to know” (see science). “The sense development has been extraordinary, even for an adj.” [Weekley] — from “timid, faint-hearted” (pre-1300); to “fussy, fastidious” (late 14c.); to “dainty, delicate” (c. 1400); to “precise, careful” (1500s, preserved in such terms as a nice distinction and nice and early); to “agreeable, delightful” (1769); to “kind, thoughtful” (1830).
The original meaning of “mean:”
mean (adj.1)
Meaning “of common or low origin, inferior in rank or status” (of persons) is attested from early 14c. Sense of “ordinary, inferior in attainment or skill” is from late 14c. Also from late 14c. as “poor in quality, of little value,” though this sense survived longer in American than in England. James Stirling, in “Letters from the Slave States” [London, 1857], mentioning mean whites (poor whites in the South who do manual labor and are looked down on by the slaves) notes, ” ‘Mean’ is an Americanism for ‘poor,’ ‘shabby.’ They speak here of a ‘mean’ hotel, a ‘mean’ dinner, &c.”
The pejorative sense of “without dignity of mind, destitute of honor, low-minded” is from 1660s; the specific sense of “stingy, niggardly” is recorded by 1755; the weaker sense of “disobliging, pettily offensive” is from 1839, originally American English slang. All these developments of the English word were furthered by its coincidence in form with mean (adj.2) “middle, middling,” which also was used in disparaging senses, and OED notes that some usages of mean it cites “might be referred almost equally to the native and to the foreign adj.; the truth is probably that they are of mixed ancestry.”
Nice! And I mean it! 😂
Lol!
“Silly” has gone through changes, too…in the opposite direction.
Wow, yeah it has!
More seriously, the textualist and original intent schools of constitutional law have to account for the fact that the “plain reading” of the constitution today might not be the same as it was when written–due to semantic shifts like these. The problem isn’t as extreme for late 18th century English as for 13th, but it is there. (e.g., “well regulated” doesn’t mean OSHA is involved.)
Absolutely! This also applies to the Bible. Words meant different things back in those days, and can lead to misinterpretations of all kinds of things.
Oh, and “homely” (used to describe a woman’s looks)…didn’t used to be an awful thing.
Home being the safest, best, and warmest place one could be, that makes all kinds of sense.
The binary video is very interesting 00100001
This is upper-case Q: 01010001
The way she presents it is a bit distracting, because the shift at P is really just the 16 digit, and that is why A starts off odd but P starts off even (if you look at them as two “analogous” series, which they’re not.
This chart helps it all make sense that you’re basically counting 26 letters through the whole range.
“Nice,” thanks! The video presented the information very quickly, and I watched part of it several times to understand the concept. The chart is useful.
Looks like R Should be 101 0010 so the chart appears to have a typo 😉 since Z is listed as 101 1010 which is also what R is in the chart 🙂
Good catch!!!
🙂
burning stuff destroys evidence.
Just a courtesy to the accident inspectors who have likely been picked before hand to make sure nothing leads back to preps actually responsible for this mayhem. And in between the fire and the inspectors you can likely figure a few select first responders tampering with what physical evidence there is to examine. We are after all in the Biden Decrepit Age where nothing be fully trusted.
The Decrepit Age 😂! Terrible, but true!
Certainly is descriptive of our infra-structure. WE pay for the infra-structure in foreign countries but WE never get the re-build.
Poisoning the well of knowledge! So true.
YUP. There we go! Let’s see how well that ages. Good science should destroy that before Walensky even tries to open her mouth.
I want to apologize for posting misleading stuff found on Telegram yesterday (the old bridge).
That was the third time in recent days stuff off there has been not right, so I’m not going to re-post any more things from there.
Don’t apologize! Learn, and share your learning!
None of us are perfect, but we can help each other be the best we can be.
Be Best.
I miss her.
Amen!
If nothing else, it’s a good drill, reminder. Question what is presented. Something I work on.
Well I found that reddit debunking link after going through the replies to the original tweet. However the debunking link was tweeted by a ukrainian or ukrainian follower, which made me wonder if the original tweet had been seeded by them.
That is sometimes EXACTLY how discreditation works – straight out of the CIA playbook – and Ukraine is basically a subsidiary of CIA at this point.
One of the things I do on these debunkings is to observe if the essential point can still be pushed through, and then follow up with more, better, vetted and verified memes of that nature. THAT infuriates these fact-checkers, because their game then appears to be exactly what it is.
My comment was a reflection of me, only. Certainly nit RAC or anyone else. 🙂
So, except for The Lost Years of The Great Plague, the SUSE music videos come out after their big get-togethers. I believe this is from the last get-together eight months ago —
I like this one. She’s got a great voice and delivery!
Very good! (Both of them.) in these two they picked songs it is esy to sing a long with. Hubby was not happy because I can not sing worth beans. 🙃
LOL!!! 😂
Another one from the latest batch —
Good feature-packing, good music, but definitely lacking on song-writing polish, IMHO.
Look what came up in the net! This one’s not a fish!
They need a stationary camera for the non-epileptic / non-ADHD crowd.
It’s just so frustrating that it ruins whatever musical connection that might otherwise exist.
They are literally changing camera angles every 2 to 3 seconds.
From Bayou Renaissance Man, off of Gab —
😂
Lmao. Read it to my husband, he loved it! 😇
LOL! Oh, that’s a good one.
I read that to Hubby, telling him he should pass it on to a friend who likes jokes. He said I heard that one before, where do you think I heard it? I said John? he nodded…..
DARN and it is such a great joke..
Would you, or someone, mind spelling out how this is true?
I’m sure this will help 👇
right ??
IKR
🤓 😁 😬
Again, decimal is the odd one out. Binary is one bit at a time — 10 is 2. Octal is three bits at a time — 10 is 8. Hexadecimal is four bits at a time — 10 is 16.
On UNIX-based systems, file permissions are “rwxrwxrwx” — the first three are for the system, the second for the file’s group, and the third are for users. Because each set of permissions has three parts — rwx — then it can be coded by three bits. Accordingly, the fast way to set file access rights is by using octal — 777 is “rwxrwxrwx”, 447 is “r–r–rwx”, and 466 is “r–rw-rw-“.
hmmm never having taken a computer class this is starting to get more confusing. I did diligently read your Linux tutorials a while back & Partially understood them (at the time) 🙂
I only brought it up because it uses octal. Just remember there is a reason to know it some day and avoid that day as long as possible.
LOL! avoidance is my middle name being a practiced procrastinator…some problems just end up solving themselves!
I should point out that modern systems will let you just specify “r–rw-rw-” and not use octal at all. It’s the old farts that still do it the other way.
what do the letters stand for?
Read, Write, and eXecute. It’s a very simple, but powerful, way to keep the right people able to access the right stuff.
I believe I could learn to think in such terms…eventually. It helps to translate the words meaningfully for me though 🙂
ME 10!
Me 11.
[big snort]
grrrrrr squared
This got shuffled by WordPiss. Skip the octal and stick with the bits and it works better….
Thanks Smiley. I honestly don’t know the difference between 2 to the 0 & 2 to the 1 though…my math deficiencies & brain fragility are being exposed here 🙂
hey I feel ya !
never was real good with codes.
haven’t tried codes since 6th grade.
decoder rings never really helped much either IIRC.
be like…
Nice!
Hilarious.
Any number to the 0 power is 1.
That follows from the way you can multiply powers together by adding exponents, and divide them by subtracting them.
e.g., what is 2^4 multiplied by 2^3? Write it out longhand: 2^4 is 2x2x2x2 and 2^3 is 2x2x2, so if you multiply them together that’s just 2x2x2x2 x 2x2x2 or 2^7. But you can just add the 4 and the 4 and get 7. If you divide those numbers instead of multiplying, it’s 2x2x2x2 / 2x2x2 but you can cancel, and get just plain 2 (i.e., 2^1). So to divide you subtract the exponents: 4-3 = 1.
[Let me point out this only works if the numbers are the same base, in this case they are and that base is 2.]
So what is 2^0? Well, it’s what you get if you divide (for instance) 2^4 by 2^4 (subtracting 4 from 4 gives you zero…according to the rule above). But that’s just 1. And if you think about it, it’s 1 no matter what the base is, so anything to the 1st power is 1.
I think I understood this so I appreciate the explanation. However your final statement “so anything to the 1st power is 1.” shouldn’t that Actually read that anything to the Zeroth power is one? TY Any number to the 1st power would just be that number itself, I believe 🙂
Yes…geez, I messed that one up didn’t I?
Yes, any number to the first power is itself.
There was an episode in the original Star Treck where the script writer had Spock give some number as “one to the twelfth power.” Which of course is 1x1x1x1x1x1x1x1x1x1x1x1 = 1. Kind of silly.
LOL sounds like something that would be easy to catch for you. We saw an early episode of ST where Spock’s uniform is beige & he’s Yelling every statement, at least on the bridge. His more sedate persona was much easier to watch!
Oh, yes. That was probably the pilot episode, “The Cage” or the one they made from it.
Interesting story there. Roddenberry produced a 90 minute pilot and showed it to NBC execs. They though it would be too cerebral, BUT they did something they never did before; they gave him a second chance. Come in with another pilot.
The first pilot had a totally different crew, except for Spock. Christopher Pike was the captain, the first officer was Number One (played by the producer’s wife, Majel Barret, who later played Nurse Chapel), and so on.
The second pilot was “Where No Man Has Gone Before” with the “regular” Enterprise crew, but a lot of the uniforms and so on were different from the regular series. Spock was, IIRC a “yeller” in both of those. They hadn’t really figured his character out yet. (The only one who didn’t develop quickly in the first few episodes was Kirk; Shatner had him nailed from the get-go.)
The first pilot, the Cage, was chopped up and they made a “wrapper” story, where it turns out The Cage happened 13 years ago, and now, Spock hijacks the Enterprise (and abducts Pike). When he is on trial he essentially shows “The Cage” as his defense.
That turned into the two part episode “The Menagerie.”
It’s possible now to purchase or watch “The Cage” in its original form; maybe 30 seconds of it didn’t get used in “The Menagerie.”
That’s fascinating. I thought that about Spock’s character development too.
This episode, didn’t catch the name, had a male & female character getting super powers & glowing silver eyes & I think she helps Kirk kill him at the end, perhaps at the cost of her own life–from memory since we were just passing by this time.
I recall the Christopher Pike character as captain AND as a shell of a man in a contraption w/ a light for “yes” or “no”–I think someone turned it into a Hillary meme. Doesn’t Pike & a severely deformed female choose to willingly live under the control of aliens who allow them to appear beautiful & fully functional (as Data would declare to the Borg Queen later when “Number One” would also be a standard moniker for Riker) in a cage disguised as paradise?
Speaking of Majel Barret, GR’s wife, I believe she was in that episode w/ the yelling Spock but I didn’t hear her name or rank. She also was Deanna’s mother Luwuxanna Troi, who was hilarious in having the perpetual hots for Picard, & the voice of the computer too–fun!
Then you saw “Where No Man Has Gone Before.” (the second, less “cerebral” pilot, the one the TV watchers saw).
OK TY 🙂
Your last two paragraphs are indeed about “The Cage”/”Menagerie” which was the first pilot (and its recycling). “The Cage” was never broadcast as it originally was, not for many decades anyway.l
I’ve been meaning to eventually make my way through all of the original Star Trek series via a streaming service, like Netflix. I wonder if they would have The Cage in its original format or I would have to look in the library to find it–if I even remember, a Big If!
The remastered blurays come with The Cage.
For a while there, the cut scenes were only available in black and white, so when you watched it the colors would fade gradually to make the transition less jarring. But then they did find color copies so that’s most likely what you’ll see if you do manage to find a copy.
If they show a hand-drawing of a Talosian on the computer screen, that’s one of the things they cut making The Cage into The Menagerie.
Thx for that tip! You are a fount of knowledge in So Many arenas!!!
I was wondering if one of those videos in DP’s Wednesday post, showing numerous gas grenades lobbed into the crowd on January 6th, was the one that hit near you. Weren’t you involved in attempting to revive or save someone injured &/or traumatized (like a heart attack) from such an assault? I don’t think I ever fully read those posts about Q-Treepers’ 1/6 experiences, but might have to do so if these major video releases produce tangible results! Sorry if these are too impertinent of questions so don’t feel the need to answer 🙂
“Weren’t you involved in attempting to revive or save someone injured &/or traumatized (like a heart attack) from such an assault?” That was FG&C.
I saw one thumbnail that looked like it was near the stands for the inauguration. I was to the north of the stands, between the north wing and the steps.
Something to tell the kids & grandkids, &/or the nieces & nephews!
No doubt he will tell them about it.
I took a fair amount of video, especially of the march to the Capitol; but I didn’t do anything “special” other than (possibly) draw a grenade to keep me from filming the moment they let the crowd in on my side.
That’s still unreal. So glad you, WM, & a few others were eye-witnesses to what went down!
You got a picture of Yuko Lanham on scene. She’s interesting, because she’s surprisingly SWAMPY for a Japanese journalist.
https://www.asahi.com/ajw/articles/13702200
“Number One” I think Roddenberry must have hated losing that character. (Spock became the combined First Officer and Science officer.) Because he brought that nickname back for Riker (though at least Riker had a real name; the original Number One was simply, Number One).
Fascinating, with a Spockian eyebrow raised 😉
This is using binary arithmetic. Instead of places meaning 1000, 100, 10, 1, as in base 10, the places mean 8, 4, 2, 1.
To count in binary, you have
1 1
2 10
3 11
4 100
5 101
6 110
7 111
8 1000
9 1001
10 1010 … and so on.
If you work with computers a lot, you have to deal with binary sometimes, though more often you deal with hexadecimal (base 16), and sometimes (on old gronk) octal (base 8). It helps to be able to convert on-the-fly. Binary digits are also known as “bits”, and eight of them is a “byte”.
For instance, an IP address range is commonly designated as “192.168.0.x/24”. The four numbers (given in decimal) are between 0 and 255, and can also be rendered as hex numbers between 00 and FF…..which map to binary of 00000000 to 11111111. The number after the slash is how many bits are “fixed” and cannot vary. So IP addresses traditionally use decimal and binary to talk about things that are actually easier in hex, just because they were done that way early on.
Thank you. I understood that partially, at least.
So 1 + 1 = 10 is sort of tricky, as in 1 + 1 = 2 but 2 in binary is actually 10…
then 10 + 1 = 11 is really 2 + 1 = 3, but 3 in binary is actually 11…
finally the 11 + 1 = 100 is just really 3 + 1 = 4 & 4 is actually 100 in binary.
I could only do that by looking at your 1-10 key, which I appreciate 🙂
So if I’m understanding your numbering system correctly this is the next 10 #s
11 is 1011
12 is 1100
13 is 1101
14 is 1110
15 is 1111
16 is 10000
17 is 10001
18 is 10010
19 is 10011
20 is 10100
I would need a cheat chart to keep translating that stuff 🙂 assuming this is even correct for binary 11-20 LOL
That looks pretty good (without thoroughly checking) — you’ve got a pretty intuitive grasp of it (which helps).
Grasping the Counting part Only! Thanks.
I remember being confused by anything other than base 10 when exposed to that concept in grade school, iirc. Maybe it’s actually good that I never studied computers 🙂
Back when we were kids, there was a big kerfuffle about kids being taught “new math” that meant that they couldn’t count change from a cash till. My mother, being a professor of mathematics, had recently had set theory with unions and intersections as a graduate level class when I hit it in elementary school.
The thing is, it was all designed to make kids proficient in database operations and work with computers, and it was being implemented by people who really didn’t understand it — so, of course, it was a government clusterfark. But it wasn’t a completely stupid idea.
I had some exposure to “new math” in grade school. I remember this way of checking math problems (at least some of them) that was called squiggling.
548 squiggled 5 + 4 + 8 = 17 squiggled 1 + 7 = 8
x 63 ” 6 + 3 = 9
1644 ” 1 + 6 + 4 + 4 = 15 ” 1 + 5 = 6
+3288 ” 3 + 2 + 8 +8 = 21 ” 2 + 1 = 3
4932 ” 4 + 9 + 3 + 2 = 18 ” 1 + 8 = 9
All those bolded 9’s should mean that the math checks out…but I never understood why this actually worked. It might also be called “casting out nines” I think…
edit those columns did Not hold up
8 x 9 = 72 which squiggles to 9 (7 + 2)
6 + 3 = 9
Oh, good Lord, that made my head hurt. I think that must be the new, “NEW MATH”.
I was referring to the new math of my day, where you had sets of fruits {apple, cherry, orange, banana, mango, peach} and colors {red, blue, white, orange, green, beige} and found the intersection at {orange}. In third grade. Which is pretty handy when it comes to writing SQL, but didn’t make a lick of sense in the late 1960s.
SQL?
I always meant to use tangible toys, like dinosaurs, army men, &/or legos/duplos in varying colors & shapes to Attempt to teach Josiah some basic math concepts (he hasn’t Actually completed 3rd grade math even though he Graduated from HS, sigh). He has a Severe learning disability in math, like in the 0.0001 percentile & just never wanted to apply himself in this arena At all. I think he needed more concrete items rather than abstract to approach a grasping of some of those concepts…sigh…
SQL made me think of this thing taught us in Junior High, SQ3R, which was Study, Question, Read, Recite, Review…I think.
SQL is “Structured Query Language” — which is no freakin’ help at all. It’s a made-up way to access databases, and it may very well be that this blog runs on “MySQL”, or “MariaDB” which is a different version of the same thing. If you want more info, I can help you drill down…..but it’s a very deep subject.
One of the textbooks my mom reviewed while on the textbook review committee was “Mathematics: A Human Endeavor” which built its way into math through billiards, puzzles, games, observations of nature, dice, illusions, and cartoons. I don’t know if she recommended it at work, but I really liked it.
The way teaching is done in schools these days seems to lead to the production of learning-hating sheep. Actual knowledge makes the world a more wondrous and joyous place.
If you input certain things to an SQL database system, it can interpret them as SQL commands (unless ‘sanitized’) —
Some people in the home schooling world recommend it but caution that, because it is outside the current math curriculum, the kid’s math scores might drop.
Questions for those who have used Jacobs’ Mathematics: A Human Endeavor —

Real-world analogies would have helped me a lot with math. I did okay with geometry because we had a pool table and I loved the angles, sticks, and balls. The positioning of the cue on the ball and the force or delicacy used to direct the ball into the pocket. Algebra was so abstract to me.
Thanks for this. No need to dig deeper at this time but I Really appreciate the offer 🙂
This is very cool, but not easy (IMO). These must be old but very valuable results of early number theory.

Pick a number…
double that number…
add 6…
divide your answer in half…
subtract your original number…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
your answer is: 3
A slick trick – and the basis of many scams!
Yep.
I thought it pretty cool at first.
Then I realized that you subtract your original number which cancels each other out.
If you double (x2) and divide in half, but add 6 in between…
you are essentially dividing 6 in half…
which is 3
.
It’s just a mathematical TRICK.
Still pretty cool, because a lot of ALGEBRA is based on it!
As you’ve noticed, there is a rhythm to it. The 1000’s and 1000000’s are at 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, 32768, 65536….where each number is double the one before. And you also notice that these numbers show up in all sorts of places with computers — you can get 64G or 128G of RAM; you can get thumbdrives of 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, or 512G; they just phased-out 32-bit support in favor of 64-bit processors.
The reason that all these things coalesce around these numbers is because that’s what computers live and breathe — because that’s where the binary numbers roll over.
fascinating & appreciated insights!
The structures have a beauty all their own when I look at them. It makes me very happy if I can describe them so that others can see part of the beauty themselves.
speaking of beauty & math…
The beauty of mathematics is everywhere and in everything, from the way daisies blossom to the way proportions please the eye to the underlying fundamentals of existence and motion.
It is so obviously intertwined with existence that the Creator must have put it there, and our delight is but an echo of His.
Absolutely! God is an epic math genius & artist extraordinaire & we’ve not plumbed all His depths, nor will we Ever!!!
If there is one think that points to the existence of God, it is the intricate beauty and order of Math and science.
(Said as an Agnostic)
Amen! The heavens declare the glory of the Lord and the earth shows forth his handiwork!
Computers use binary everywhere for everything. If you’re running a 64-bit computer, it’s whompin’ 64-character-binary-numbers around all the time. Conversions to octal, decimal, or hex are done for the convenience of humans when they want to follow along — and, again, conversions to decimal are done so that humans can pretend to follow along while not really “getting it”.
Again, with IP addreses — if I use the dig command on this website, I get —
“;; ANSWER SECTION:
http://www.theqtree.com. 300 IN A 194.32.107.12”
That IP addy is in decimal. It’s really C2.20.6B.0C in hex.
We this isn’t the exact quote I wanted, but it’s in the vicinity 🙂
this one reminds me of some people in my real life 🙂
First one is 1 + 1 = 2, because 2 in binary is 10.
Second one is 2 + 1 = 3, because 3 in binary is 11.
Third one is 3 + 1 = 4, because 4 in binary is 100.
Once you get how the 1s add on, with every two 1s changing to a 1 in the NEXT available (zero) digit, and a 0 in the old digits that had ones, it all makes beautiful sense.
There is only one number (1) (plus zero), so the 1 moves to the next digit every other time you add 1. You can only add a 1 to the prior number in the right-hand digit, or delete 1s and put a 1 in the first available zero to the left. You never change digits like 1 to 2, 2 to 3, etc.
When you see how the numbers add, it’s very cool, because base 2 is really the most “extreme” base of them all, except base infinity.
The other extreme is base infinity, where you just keep adding new symbols and never reaching the next digit, unless you just put a symbol there, which is never reached by counting when it’s not there. LMAO. Infinity is so cool.
Infinity = Eternity
Amen!!!
I want to say that I fully understood that but I cannot tell a lie! I do appreciate the patterns & “sort of” get it.
Infinity makes me think of the mystery of the Lord & His creation!

I’ve been gone for a while.
Please tell me what happened to Wheatie.
Thank you.
Yes, then that’s been a long time then.
At the top of this page, (it’s there each Monday) there’s a poem by Duchess. At the bottom of the poem is a link to the poem. Go there and you will find another link to where the poem first appeared. That will take you to the day Q tree learned that Wheatie passed.
Essentially Wheatie wasn’t much about talking about her own self where it concerned her health. It took us near 6 months after much concern to learn she was no longer with us.
She passed? OMG that’s so sad.
I will follow your instructions regarding the link.
Thank you very much.

Just blame it on the WIDE OPEN BORDERS THAT ALLOWED RUSSIAN AND CHINESE SABOTEURS TO CROSS WITHOUT ANY RESTRICTION!
Actually this is a great time to call your congress and Senate critters and raise hell about the open borders. Blame the food plant fires, train de-railment and attacks on our electric system on foreign Saboteurs.

Why the Latest COVID Development Is Going to Make Millions Angry and Regretful
Very short and weird. At least he mentioned they lied about natural immunity. He mentions you can’t sue and people under 30 are dropping dead. The he says he regrets taking the vaccine BUT THERE IS NO FIRE in his article.
Yea, no fire at all. “Marking Time”, so to speak. Tasked to write something. He did.
From the linked article.
“Immunity acquired from a Covid infection provides strong, lasting protection against the most severe outcomes of the illness, according to research published Thursday in The Lancet — protection, experts say, that’s on par with what’s provided through two doses of an mRNA vaccine.”
^^^ WTF. mRNA Injections delivering protection?
I see no upside to the damn mRNA vaccines. None.
This guy needs to read Wolf’s latest article.
They used VERY deceptive phraseology to cover up the fact that natural immunity is better.
Let’s say that the results say that natural immunity is better. What you can say to hide this, is….
“Natural immunity may reach or even exceed the protection of the vaccine.”
Very tricky. Also there’s a lot of trickery about metrics of immunity, but I’ll skip that for now.
Now – here is the worst part of it.
The vaccines not only have negative efficacy (meaning they make you more susceptible to the virus – they also REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF IMMUNITY that you get from having the disease, when you get it. So the vaccines are a cruel double whammy that set you back, immunologically.
Because of this, if you take the vaccine, then THEIR LIE becomes more true, and natural immunity FOR THE VACCINATED won’t help much – but neither will more shots.
Here is the corrected lie.
“Natural immunity may reach or even exceed the protection of the vaccine, but if you take the vaccine, it probably won’t. Natural immunity WILL exceed the vaccine, if you never take the vaccine.”
THAT is the really shocking truth.
They had to put in the disclaimer in order to get published. Feynman’s sister had a paper on solar cycles that was hilarious in the way she trolled the scientific gate keepers.
IMO, The Lancet has lost all credibility. Especially since the Gates Foundation has given it millions.
Schlicter’s terrified. See my response to Gail.
Actually it is a different author, Matt Vespa. (He looks oriental) And yes he may not want to look at what he has done to himself and his loved ones.
Aha! That makes a lot more sense! The writing style being so different, and the attitude, too.
No “fire,” but plenty of “FEAR.”
Which is what is quenching the fire, in my opinion.
It’s called “intellectualizing” in psychology parlance. It’s a way of “distancing” oneself from a highly emotional topic. That’s what Schlicter, and many other people are currently doing.
Thanks, I just do not operate that way. I am very slow to anger but watch out when you do anger me.
Well, I don’t either. But I recognize it.
Darn, you’ve uncovered one of my primary self-defense mechanisms in the special needs parenting arena…sigh…
“It’s called “intellectualizing” in psychology parlance. It’s a way of “distancing” oneself from a highly emotional topic.”
Specially educated people will not want to admit that they fell for a scam. This takes humility to admit but many do not have it.
My beautiful granddaughter is messed up but parents do not want to connect it to the jab. Christmas she was sick for days now she had rash all over her face and back. She only went to the Student nurse giving her a shot of steroid to clear up the problem. She went home for a week. No one took her to the doctor or investigated what the cause is was.
Why is it me uneducated no one wants to listen too because I know nothing. I am so frustrated not for myself but for my 20 year old granddaughter . Something is wrong somehow the jab did something to her even though she got it a year ago. No one wants to talk about it .
You know a lot more than they do. To paraphrase the High Sparrow from Game of Thrones, a lifetime of higher education has left them blind in one eye.
You might try putting together a folder with 4 or 5 carefully chosen articles, and seal it.
Then put a note on the outside, saying something like “After you have tried everything else, and none of it has worked, please open and read.”
I like this idea.
Thank you I might just do that 🙂
I am so sorry, singing, that is terrible. It makes me want to cry for you.
Not for me but for my granddaughter . I pray she is ok and not much damage is done.
I pray so, as well. And also for your worry. It’s so hard.
Thank you 🙂

so sorry you are dealing with these incomprehensible & unacknowledged horrors!

Here is a new image URL for it, where it was saved.

PRAYING ON THE ARMOR OF GOD
Father God, I now follow your command to put on the full armor of God, because my battle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, the powers of this dark world and against spiritual forces of evil in the unseen world.
I first pray on the Belt of Truth that it may be buckled around my waist, may I be centered and encircled by your truth dear Lord. Hem me inside all that is true and right, and may I be protected and held up by the truth of your living word, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Breastplate of righteousness, please protect my vital organs and my inner man, cover my integrity, my spirit, and my soul. Guard my heart for it is the wellspring of life, please strengthen and guard the most vulnerable places in my life with that which is right, good, and noble that I might not receive a fatal blow from the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Gospel Shoes of Peace. I choose to stand in the shoes of your good news, and on the firm foundation of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the solid eternal rock. All other ground is sinking sand, I pray that I will not slip or fall, but that my feet would be firmly fitted on your lordship, my Lord Jesus. I choose to stand on you, so that the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus, the eternal Rock of Ages. I receive your holy peace now my Lord, from the sole of my feet to the crown of my head, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray the Shield of Faith into my hand now. As I take up the shield of faith, I ask that you might extinguish every dart and arrow, that is launched from the enemy to take me down spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, and every attempt of the enemy to destroy my joy. I ask that my faith in you would make it flame out. Extinguish every flaming arrow that would come against me, my life, my family, my home, or my ministry. May my faith always be out in front of me like a shield. Give me the courage to “faith my fears” by choosing to walk by faith and not by sight, in my Lord Jesus name.
I pray on the Helmet of Salvation, that you might protect my mind from the thoughts that can lead me astray. I choose to take every thought captive, and arrest all intentioned ideas and motives that would harm others, or distract me from your holy will for me. I submit every captured thought to the Lordship of my Lord Jesus Christ, and ask that you would imprison those thoughts that are not of you my Lord. Transform my mind and renew my thinking that I may think God thoughts, and have a sober mind that is focused on your glory. Please protect me from being double minded that I may allow my mind, I reject to live an earthly life, because I choose to live a holy one, governed by you My Lord Jesus, the prince of peace, please have my mind to be saturated with the holy mind of Christ, in my Lord Jesus name.
Finally, I take up the Sword of the Spirit which is the holy word of God, I pray this powerful offensive weapon into my hand, and ask that your holy word would be fitting for every encounter I face. As the enemy gets close to me, please give me the insight, wisdom, and skill to wield the word of God to drive away the enemy, in my Lord Jesus name.
May the enemy and his team flee from me, upon hearing the word of God spoken by the power and direction of the Holy Spirit. Give me the sword of the spirit to cut through the wiles of the devil, so that I may discern the schemes of the enemy when he is near.
With all kinds of prayers, supplication, and intercession I pray to you my Lord God as the one who fights my battles. Now that I’m in your holy powerful armor, I walk away covered and ready to face my day as you go before me, and please protect me in the midst of the spiritual warfare in this unseen world, in my Lord Jesus name.
Thank you my Lord, for the spiritual weapons of armor and prayer that you have given me. It is written no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and you will refute every tongue that accuses me.
Thank you Father God, my Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit, that I am more than a conqueror in my Lord Jesus. I pray all of this in the mighty name of my Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ.
AMEN.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ONE ANOTHER

Something bad is coming in Ukraine, IMO. If Pedo has to visit, it’s a bad secret.
It’s rumored among T’gram channels that a FF is coming … blaming Russia
These people are just so horrible. They did Nordstream and then tried to “blame the victim”. Very Nazi / Commie / Satanic / just plain evil.

Thesenextfew days. 21 to 24 commonly mentioned, something happening.
Agree . Pedo is pure evil
Likely. A quick secret visit. Loose ends on hunter?
Amen!
I hope Trump comes to Palestine with trucks of water
Of course he will! Maybe even a mobile water testing lab!

It does residual chlorine. It seems to be an India product but I would think something similar could be done. A generator or an electric line to run a purge and trap (PT) instrument, Infrared spectrophotomiters, mass spectrometers, and gas chromatographs and what ever other instruments would be needed. Water analysis chemistry is NOT my field. BTW
That sounds great 🙂
That would be a good gesture.
Yes it would. I feel for the people all the poison that surrounds them and now comes down in the rain who knows were ? I do not think there is a not a tree high enough to punish those who caused the disaster
Nope. And no help! Worse in some ways. Certainly heartless.
True
Two comments lifted from Larry’s blog (and a reminder to Patriots as to why we don’t have ‘nice things’ here at home – like decent infrastructure)
————————————–
“I agree Otto. This is the end of the end of history. I think military might and the U.S. dollar go hand in hand. I think Russia and China can continue to do what they are doing with trade and economic development across the world island and wait for the resulting dollar weakness to weaken us militarily.
We have military might in part because we can inflate the money supply to spend hundreds of billions in “defense” and export a lot of that inflation overseas, because countries have needed dollars to conduct trade. Then we used that might to push other countries around, including those that thought about no longer using the dollar (e.g., Saddam in the early 2000s, Ghaddafi in the late 2000s/early 2010s).
But now Russia, China, and Iran are leading the way in de-dollarization, and our act of seizing $300B of Russia’s foreign currency reserves taught a lot of the world that using the dollar comes with risk if you ever think about not kowtowing to the U.S.’ demands. De-dollarization includes using their own currencies to conduct trade, bartering, potentially trading in some BRICS alternative to the Special Drawing Right (SDR) or in cryptocurrency, and buying gold. Pepe Escobar has certainly been chronicling this for the last year or more (see his Telegram channel).
So all these dollars are going to come home like chickens to roost. Countries will give them back to us in return for real things and then these dollars will bid up prices. The delayed inflationary effect that printing these dollars would have had were they not exported will hit us over the coming years. $838B “defense” budgets won’t buy as many wunderwaffen and will hopefully be harder and harder to justify to the citizenry.”
———————————-
“People often think that 800B US military budget gives a lot of resources to be used, however, they don’t understand that:
– West tech is completely overpriced – RU can produce 300 T90 for less then 300M, while for that money US could by maybe 50 Abrams, likely even way less? Is Abrams better – I personally don’t think so, but even if it is, is it 6x better? How about 10-20x better?
The best example of this overprice nonsense was Zumwalt ship where I remember seeing some video explaining how they had idea to park Zumwalt on shore and lob 800k a piece guided and rocket assisted shells 70km from the shore, and that person then commented that it is a “great way” to spend 1B per HOUR of combat per ship, which was the reason why they decided to use shorter range shells that were somewhat cheaper but had half the range…
– US has 800 bases all over the world – do people think that those bases are cheap? Those bases need logisitical support that is able to be scaled up in order to accommodate bringing up of troops if needed, so lets just imagine that each base takes just 10M a month of salaries (200 x 5k salaries would be that so it easily much much more), a weaponry, ammunition, equipment maintenance, provisions, local contacts, corruption, (and way more if they go on patrols) etc. it makes it 800 x 10 x 12 which is an absolute minimum of close to 100B, and much more likely, just having all those bases is wasting lion’s share of this seemingly “unlimited” budget.
If you are still not sure, how about having a base in the middle of nowhere? What do you think that costs? just giving people leave to go to town for some R&R or providing all town amenities in the base would mean considerable expense, not to mention even simple things like fuel, food, etc getting brought on regular basis over large distances by helis/planes, etc…
One of the reason why many countries (like Poland) want to have US bases on their territory is exactly because that manes having thousands of permanent tourists and huge amount of provisioning/supply business that would be offered to handle them”

Never mind the J6 footage – RELEASE THE J6 PRISONERS!!!!
Do mind the J6 footage … AND… Release the prisoners.
And make the J6 tapes available to the public.
Transparency.
This is the ticket.
Right now, going … hummmm … at the report of the “tapes” going to Tucker [alone]??
Tucker who may dislike POTUS Trump?
No one, or one group should have lone access to J6 tapes.
That too 🙂

Israeli Observers Kicked Out of African Union Summit Were Not Invited Says Chairperson
“Chairperson of the African Union Commission Moussa Faki has said that Israeli diplomats who were escorted from the opening ceremony of the Addis Ababa summit by security were not invited to the event.
Israeli media reported on Saturday that an Israeli observer delegation at the African Union summit in the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa was kicked out of the opening ceremony.
Moussa Faki told reporters after the summit concluded on Sunday that Israeli diplomats were escorted from the event “because we did not invite Israeli officials.”
The Chairperson of the African Union Commission added that the decision to grant observer status to Israel was suspended pending discussion of this issue by a specially created committee.
A source in the Algerian foreign ministry told Sputnik last year that African Union leaders had decided to suspend Israel’s observer status, which was granted by Moussa Faki in 2021. A seven-member committee was set up that was supposed to give its recommendations on the issue at this year’s summit.”

So it certainly does look like sabotage is possible. It would only take about three people. One for the rail car, one for each hot box detector.
The rail car could be an emergency brake pulled or stategically placed thermite causing a fusion of critical components.
The fact the CEO of No-Fuck S. ordered the burn, makes you wonder if he might have known something…It certainly makes it a lt harder to determine what happened to thatspecific rail car.

So there ARE manual brakes. Interesting that aIr pressure is needed to KEEP THE BRAKES ON. In semis, if the air pressure to the trailer is removed the brakes automatically close ON so a trailer can not run away.
It’s amazing.
I thought I had fixed the problem, but when I checked market-ticker today, the most current article was The Medical Mafia MUST Be Destroyed
From 2-17-23
I was sure there had been articles since then, but I couldn’t find them.
Then you post Hypothesis: Diversity Hiring Kills in [Market-Ticker] and I click on it, and go right to it.
I’ve had the same issue off and on for a couple of months.
I have a bunch bookmarked. NONE will take me to the article. I have to do a copy URL and plug into YANDEX and then I am fine.
(I really wish I could spell and my fingers would write the word I am thinking instead of something else!)
There are two different areas on the site. One is the Cancelled area, where he puts things that are not fit for the main stream, the other is called Main articles and a link is on the right side at the top. That is where my link came from.
There is something messed up. I clicked the ‘Click Here for Main Articles’ and I had the same problem.
I tried it a couple more times.
Then I clicked your article link.
Then when I was at the article link you provided, I clicked the ‘Click Here for Main Articles’ and now it works, IF I click it from your link.
But if I go back to the previous link, and click “Click Here for Main Articles”, it won’t take me to the article you linked.
It’s just unreal that Karl could take something so simple, and make it so complicated 😂
Perfect!
Trump is the President of the people ❤
AND WE KNOW IT!!!
DO you really think truck drivers and factory workers and tradesman and farmers CARE that he posted ‘Mean Tweets’??
NO! I think a lot of us were relieved to see someone with a SPINE for once.
“The hideous notion that conservatives should always be nice is rearing its ugly and misshapen head again, and we need to crush its skull with a Louisville Slugger.”
In this Kurt Schlichter is correct.
When you want to clean the house of evil nasty vermin you do not care if the exterminator is a nice guy or not!
True we need a person like Trump who has no fear 🙂
You’d never hear a pest control/removal worker say “awww these rats a so adorable ..”
Oh no….
It’s a shame that he was forced out of his own organization, but after the way things went down, I don’t see how he could have continued. Donors were bailing on them and the public was extremely upset. It’s impossible to heal that kind of rift. I hope he can continue the same kind of work.
What was the official reason he got the boot?
He made some of the employees cry because he is a BULLY… sniff sniff 🙄
Panty-waists …
They didn’t officially fire him. They put him in “time out” for a couple of weeks, and he decided to resign. Supposedly he treated some people harshly.
So no official statement. While I like his reporting I would want to make sure there is no weird stuff going on that no one is aware of.
It’s a railroad job.
I will support whatever James does.
And fuck you, Project Veritas.
Pretty well sums it for me.
Guessing James will regroup, creating a better version of, now deceased PV.
Maybe cherry pick trusted PV staff.

I will NOT forget Matthew Tyrmand traitorous behavior towards O’Keefe and Trump.
Looks like the best way to shed the crap-weasel WOKE infiltrators.
NOW James can restart with a CLEAN SLATE. Meanwhile the mag donors can go after PV and rake back their donations. 😋
I hope it doesn’t take too long.
He was in ‘Conference’ with Robert Kennedy earlier.
I would imagine James will hit the ground running.
Don’t omit MT’s disgusting fake persona that he displayed repeatedly on Warroom. He put Bannon in a horrible position, having given MT a platform and a reach of millions in the posse audience.
Yes you are so right was thinking the same. He is a real pose.
I would not worry. It is a teaching moment and the Posse has shown they are willing to learn.
POTUS Trump and his team are smoking out a Schiff ton of crap-weasels.
Tyrmand use Bannon with the Brazil and Ukraine stick maybe hoping Mega will fallow him. No dice traitor.
He does not want to be beholden to to a compromised board. ust my take and do not blame him. He might take the money with him 🙂
AND the decent people.
Possible 🙂

“Everyone is at Risk for Blood Clots!” – CDC and Pfizer Issue Urgent Warnings on Blood Clots Even in “The Healthiest Athletes” | The Gateway Pundit
Why is Pfizer offering medical advice on something (supposedly) not related to their products? This is weird and highly suspicious, IMO.
Well, Pfizer-BioNTech manufactures Eliquis, one of the leading blood-thinner / blood clot / Deep Vein Throbosis treatment drugs. Eliquis brings in HUGE amounts of profits every year to the company.
Albert Bourla knows D@MN RIGHT WELL that Pfizer-BioNTech’s COVID-19 “vaccine” BNT162b2 — and the related “bivalent booster shot vaccine” — cause damage to the walls of the blood vessels of the body. The FDA and the CDC ALSO both know this. These agencies have the ACTUAL study data from Pfizer-BioNTech’s animal and human “studies” for BNT162b2, going all the way back to the summer of 2020.
ALSO — IMO — Pfizer-BioNTech is trying to get out in front of the coming MEDICAL TSUNAMI of “vaccinated” people presenting with “sudden blood clots” / “sudden or worse DVT condition”, etc.

We blew up your pipeline and sell you four times the price of gas, smile, fool.
Who are those two?
Victoria (cookie) Nuland and hubby Kagan
Pgroup….They are German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock and US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken.
I don’t watch TV 😉 Litenmaus …
I thought the gal was too slim as Nuland has gained more than power.
actually I don’t think the title is correct … the RIGHT peeps are the one I named Baerbock had nothing to do with the destruction, imho of course
:0) Hey Phoenix…. Antony Blinken, in my opinion, definitely had something to do with the destruction of the pipeline and the US has stepped in to sell Liquid Natural Gas to Germany in order to make up the shortfall that occurred due to the explosion of the Nord Stream pipelines so again, in my opinion, the meme is pretty spot on funny…..
didn’t mean to exclude Blinken from the mischief … Baerbock is a piece of work … you’re right, the meme is spot on!

With regard to my previous post about rumors of FF blaming Russia:

The Ukrainian telegram channel “Typical Odessa” reports that several barrels with strange suspicious contents were delivered to the Odessa port (Ilyichevsk); people became ill when they came into contact with the barrels.

“So, radiation cargo.
One of the further options for the development of events:
– a staging is being created using a nuclear explosion on the territory of Ukraine, which is presented in the information field as a kind of aggression on the part of the Russian Federation. The following locations can be used as a territory for application:
– exclusion zone around Chernobyl (already, so to speak, a ready landfill)
– the area of the “scorched earth” of Donbass – (a minimum of people, everything is destroyed and there are few water resources before pollution) – this is the most likely option;
– some large Russian city with a million people Kharkiv, Odessa (to create maximum media effect).”

Then I saw in the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a scroll written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals. And I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?” And no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or to look into it, and I began to weep loudly because no one was found worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.

James O’Keefe’s conflict with Project Veritas reminds me of when they pushed Phyllis Schlafley out of the Eagle Forum when she endorsed Donald Trump – https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2016/04/11/phyllis-schlafly-endorses-trump-then-faces-coup/
I wish people would get that story right. She wasn’t pushed out as much as she was dying of cancer, and her daughter who was her caregiver wanted her to rest. Schlafly’s son took his mother’s side. BIG FAMILY FIGHT was word on the ground here right before she died.
Well … we now have it right thanks to you. Kudos for speaking up.
This entire thing is worth a listen. O’Keefe speaks for about twenty minutes. Very sad, and despicable what was done here. And he knows it was brought to you by Pfizer. He knows.
The whole resignation speech was leaked. James meant it for the staff, but I am glad someone leaked it. I cried.

Trump Doesn’t Get It — DeSantis Does — Arthur Schaper
So we know the ‘Controlled Opposition’ is going heavy and hard FOR DeSantis and against Trump.
OH HO…
Looks like another Fabian Wolf in a sheepskin.
Meet the Trump backer leading the resistance to the resistance
I think he can be BOUGHT EASILY….
I doubt Arthur can be bought all that easily. He doesn’t share our view of Trump but he’s a fighter. He’s a culture warrior.
As far as the LA Times goes, that’s obviously a hit piece. SPLC is BS. The idea that he’s riding the MR gravy train is BS. They don’t have the cash for a freeloader. He hits hard and lands real blows. The left is flailing desperately so they call their boys in the papers to do the dirty work. He is taking flak b/c he’s over the target.
In fairness, if we have any questions and want to clarify his position on any points – I can take those questions and ask him directly.
Schaper is the one who doesn’t get that Trump’s base is not going away.

Unfortunately I can report that is not just a silly cartoon.
We had two lambs born today. Mom is a veteran mother and very good but she was ignoring one lamb. So we picked it up and put it (standing) close to her and retreated back to the house hoping she would mother this second lamb of hers.
Then I looked out the window to see two vultures killing the lamb!! WTF!
I never knew they would actually KILL. My Wild A$$ Guess is that since vultures will projectile vomit at predators, they may also ‘mark’ newborns in a similar way so the mother rejects her first born. (Explaining why this veteran Mom refused to get near this lamb.) This would explain why I never see twins anymore, just a lot of ‘healthy vultures.’
By the time we got out to that lamb it had already been 1/2 eaten. They are THAT FAST and they will pick up and more prey so We might never be aware of just how many we lost.
Would having a sheep dog patrol the herd help?
Actually we have a guard donkey but she is getting old.
That’s sad but maybe you figured something out ! Being a mostly citified gal I really like these true nature/farm/livestock stories. Your life fascinates me 😍
PS~ I didn’t stress enough how sad it was and that I’m very sorry to read of that.
I hadn’t heard of vultures killing like that. I’m so sorry.
Oh, my.
I’m so sorry to hear of your baby lamb, 😔😢 .. do have dogs to protect them? I ask because I don’t remember if you mentioned if you do. I read a story of two Great Pyrenees dogs, the picture shows them bloodied up from a wolf attack on their herd of sheep. Here is the article if you’d like to read it. God bless you and DH and all the animals you care for Gail. ❤️❤️❤️

Sheep shows gratitude to the dog after saving them from a wolf attack.
We went thru three Great Pyrenees but could not keep them here. The preferred to jump the fence and sit on the neighbors porch with their dogs (Who were attacking my sheep) so after the third we gave up and got a donkey.
Aw shuck .. ☹️ .. silly dogs .. nuts. Bet the donkey was OK … 😃👍❓❤️
When she was younger we would finder standing over a lamb guarding it. She would also stand between strangers and her sheep.
Huh, … she started out right … what made her change(?), the dogs next door? Sorry she didn’t work out for you. ❤️

The first commercial insurance company I worked for in one year received about $9 billion in premiums. Paid out about $8.8 billion in claims for losses just like this. So we made money that year. But these sort of losses are not uncommon as domestic terrorism looking you think they are. And my company at the time was only about the 5th or 6th largest commercial insurer.

Piers Corbyn at weatheraction.com has developed a model for predicting increases in volcanic and earthquake activity based on moon position, and solar activity such as coronal holes, CME’s etc. Sort of hit and miss still but sometimes the correlation is pretty obvious.
Think of it as two slabs of rock side by side being ‘pulled’ in opposite directions. The amount of ‘pull’ builds over time but the rocks do not move because of friction and inertia. and then you add just a little bit more ‘pull’ and the whole thing starts moving.
It is going to be hit or miss because there are several factors and not just one contributing to the ‘pull’ Solar and moon are two of them
So goes the old plate tech theory. There are others that theorize the mantel is held in place by magnetic fields. When this is disrupted there is movement. The magnetic field can be disrupted through the earths overall weakening field and solar outputs.
Thanks Gail! Earthquakes could be in the sidebar as an article. That’s a lot of good info to look through, or perhaps I should bookmark today’s post and edit the name to remind me to find the earthquake links
I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

An actual geologist I know swears up and down there is NO correlation between tides and quakes.
Thirty years ago, America and China ended a generation of bitterness and took an historic first step in creating a world of peace. Full text of this historic document follows:
http://www.sinomania.com/CHINANEWS/shanghai_communique_30th_anniversary.htm
from the Communique:
The U.S. side declared:
“The United States acknowledges that all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China and that Taiwan is a part of China. The United States Government does not challenge that position. It reaffirms its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves. With this prospect in mind, it affirms the ultimate objective of the withdrawal of all U.S. forces and military installations from Taiwan. In the meantime, it will progressively reduce its forces and military installations on Taiwan as the tension in the area diminishes.”
absolutely fascinating read….Thanks Phoenix
Is it just me or does the recent goading of China by the likes of Antony Blinken and Senator Lindsey Graham seem reminescent of the goading that was done against Russia by Joe Biden and John McCain via Ukraine???

Many of the Romanov’s sisters did escape. How do I know? Well I have pictures of them in the U.S.A. including a picture of Alexi in his early 30’s. My Grandmother was a Romanov. They changed their names when they arrived in the U.S. My mother finally told me the story prior to her passing. I have a oil painting of my mother, where the eyes follow you in every direction. Putting the oil painting side by side to Alexandra Romanov, they look like sisters. My grandmother was Anastasia. I placed the picture of Alexi in a photo I have next to him in his military uniform & it is spot on Alexi. A friend that lives not far from me also has documentation of being a Romanov. Just a FYI, you can NOT get solid DNA out of bones that had acid poured on the remains of the bodies. The stories you have been told were created by the mockingbird news media. This was so all the gold could be confiscated along with all their other belongings.

I doubt very much they would come here and be safe.
The banksters/British Royals were PISSED that the Tzar spoiled their plans to split the USA and leave it weak enough to take over after the Civil War.
U.S. Civil War: The US-Russian Alliance that Saved the Union
The original article I read years ago that said the Tzar told the Brits if they attacked the USA he would attack from the rear.
This is a more ‘polite way’ of saying the same thing.
The Bolsevik Revolution and the extermination of the Tzar’s family was payback.
The NYC and London Banksters who financed the Bolshevik Revolution
Leon Trotsky, a major figure in the Russian Revolution who was exiled to the U.S. for a few months during which he lived in the Bronx. When he sailed for Europe the Canadians tried to arrest him but the American government interfered.One Warburg brother set up the US Federal Reserve. LINK
truly astounding!
Amazing the history we are NEVER taught.
There was a rumor at one point that they were in exile in Poland. I have no idea if that is true or not.

Not just Anastasia, but all of Nicholas’ children are accounted for that way.

(emphasis mine)
It’s hard for me to believe that they don’t understand how this will anger people. I expect them to try to tie O’Keefe up in litigation. 😡
James would likely say, …
Bring. It. On.
BTW, if the board really had evidence that James misused/embezzled funds it should have gone to court for a pre-trial seizure order that freezes the funds/assets. Right now, James can use any assets under his control to fight against the accusations.
Conclusion? They don’t have the receipts. [h/t Bannon]
Well, there is the potential they have some legit concerns. While it may be nice to blame things on Pfizer and them influencing the board. It could also be true that James screwed up.
Uh huh.
Just a coincidence. The board woke the fuck up, when Pfizer was exposed.
^^^ Too fucking convenient.
James unceremoniously booted from PV, While On Travel.Mandatory leave.Muzzled.The fired, rehired CFO AND Corrupt Board can manufacture shit anyway they see fit. :
AND, OMG, James insisted on black rental cars. <<< SCANDOLOUS ‼
This is one I am not getting out in front of. Seen this before where everyone’s favorite gets accused of wrong doing. And it turns out to be right. As the facts are just dribbling out, I will just wait a couple of weeks.
It could be BOTH. Consider the following scenario: James screwed up, Pfizer found out, Pfizer wanted to hold it over his head, he ignored them; Pfizer told the board. Would explain the timing.
Yep. The Board knows who their cash cow is so I don’t see them pulling the plug on him without some serious issues involved. Now, they could have totally misread the whole situation also.
Too early to tell.
Gavin and the dimms have done this:
Retail is hurting everywhere, no doubt. However, throughout the article, CA is the state losing the most retailers, as dimms want higher taxes to solve their incompetent state mgmt.
BBBeyond, Tuesday morning, Gap, Macys, jcPenney, and all the retailers that havent announced yet, as well as smaller retail without the attention.
The only mall I go to, infrequently, is a mix of name brand and “filler” stores, when it used to be mid to upper income just a few yrs ago.
Its not the online shopping thats killed it.
Taxes, cost of living, and politics!
