2023·06·10 Joe Biden Didn’t Win Daily Thread

Joining The Herd Of Lemmings

I’ve had cause to consider a few things. Maybe we’re going about it the wrong way, and we need to ditch Trump

Yeah, NO

Trump all the way! Why? Because being hated by the people who hate him is a sign of impeccable character, that’s why.

The haters can go fuck themselves with rusty twelve gauge bore brushes. I’d prefer ten gauge but that’s kind of scarce, so…I’m willing to compromise.

The RINO’s Dilemma

The RINOs who who have burrowed in and taken over most GOP organizations, from the state down to local organizations, have quite a dilemma on their hands, and most of them have their heads too far up their asses to realize it.

OK, I’m not talking about the liberal in a Republican area, who knows they’re in the wrong party, but is there because it’s the only game in their town; they hope to capture a nomination someday, at which point they’re guaranteed to be elected…otherwise, they never will be. These people are a hazard in any heavily conservative area.

No, I’m talking about the guys who are a little bit conservative and want to do some good by going into politics, and they’re in a closely matched area, closely enough that they can join the party they are most aligned with and still have a chance. They think the Democrats…particularly the ones who end up running for office…are nuts.

They don’t think much better of the Deplorable types, either. A bunch of bumpkins whose hearts are in the right place, mostly…OK a bit extreme. But they think Deplorables can’t understand that first you have to get elected, then work within the system to change things…a slow process. They genuinely want many of the things Deplorables want…just not as much. The government is spending too much. Or they need to spend money on highways instead of welfare for illegal immigrants. But they want to work within the system to get these things done.

Or maybe they think things are pretty close to ideal right now, and they want to nail it in place.

The problem is, that means they don’t stand for anything in particular. And it shows. They’re about as unappetizing to the electorate as a puddle of dog vomit. The folks in the middle, who they think they are appealing to because they themselves are not extreme, would honestly prefer a clear-spoken radical to someone who qualifies everything they say to the point where they sound like they don’t believe anything at all.

The problem these “Mild RINOs” have, is they just can’t see that. And the reason they just can’t see that, is their entire sense of self-worth is tied up in not seeing that. In their minds, they’ve worked tirelessly for their party, to keep those crazy Democrats out…only to have to constantly fight with a small number of crazy Republicans–who are only liabilities if they end up as candidates. They’ve fought the good fight, and if they can just find the right candidate, someone with some charisma, they might stop the crazies…without being too beholden to the OTHER crazies. In the meantime it’s not working. What’s a responsible guy in politics to do?

They simply cannot understand that the Republicans can’t succeed as the party of nothing in particular. Not really in the past, and certainly not today when people are starting to realize that no matter what they do in the voting booth, the country is still about to fly off a precipice. If they did see it, they’d suddenly have two choices: Go away and let the GOP succeed, or stay and fight. But “go away” isn’t really an option, because what’s the point of having a party now owned by the crazies, win?

Well, they have a dilemma…and WE, therefore have a problem. And we would have that problem even IF they realized that they had a problem…that they were the problem.

No one ever thinks they are the bad guy. Even Epstein probably thought he was the good guy. Right up to the moment where he didn’t kill himself.

So if you ever wonder why these unappetizing dufuses cling on even when their fingernails are being left behind…that’s why. They don’t understand no one wants them, and can’t imagine that no one should want them. And oftentimes their greatest pride is in all the hard work they’ve done for the party. They’re not going to give that up; it’d be psychological suicide.

If you’ve worked with these people, there’s a good chance you like them and consider some of them your friends. But even if so…we’re going to have to give them a good, hard shove. Because America is more important than those milquetoasts’ egos.

Justice Must Be Done

The prior election must be acknowledged as fraudulent, and steps must be taken to prosecute the fraudsters and restore integrity to the system.

Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is hopeless otherwise. Which is not to say one must never talk about this, but rather that one must account for this in ones planning; if fixing the fraud is not part of the plan, you have no plan.

OK now for the fine print.

This is the WQTH Daily Thread. You know the drill. There’s no Poltical correctness, but civility is a requirement. There are Important Guidelines,  here, with an addendum on 20191110.

We have a new board – called The U Tree – where people can take each other to the woodshed without fear of censorship or moderation.

And remember Wheatie’s Rules:

(Hmm a few extras seem to have crept in.)

Spot (i.e., paper) Prices

Last week:

Gold $1,948.50
Silver $23.68
Platinum $1,015.00
Palladium $1,459.00
Rhodium $7,450.00

This week, 3PM Mountain Time, markets have closed for the weekend.

Gold $1,961.70
Silver $24.38
Platinum $1,018.00
Palladium $1,356.00
Rhodium $7,100.00

Silver up a decent amount. Gold a bit less so (and it went down a few bucks on Friday). Palladium and rhodium continue to slide which either means, someone is finally mining the stuff and meeting the demand, or…the economy is in a world of hurt. (The problem is they tend to piggyback on platinum mining, and no one is bothering with platinum because it’s been a glut on the market for years.)

Arbitrary Powers

No, this is not political, even though our would-be overlords are exercising arbitrary powers.

The last two posts on e and π have probably bent a few minds as people read them. I talked about some pretty wacky arithmetic…and it is arithmetic. Some few people here might not know what fractional and negative powers mean, or that they can even exist, so I’m going to take a break and bring ’em up to speed. Then I’ll bring in the Taylor series.

It seems like it would be a bit tricky multiplying an irrational number by itself, or even by some other irrational number. If it’s a rational number, even a repeating decimal, you can do the multiplication with fractions (where you get an exact answer), then if necessary convert to a decimal. But when the number doesn’t end as a decimal and can’t be represented as a fraction what do you do? You can just take it out to about twice as many digits as you need, do the multiplication, then throw away the digits you don’t need….only some of them at the end were wrong anyway. But that’s not really satisfying to mathematicians (engineers settle for it, because this is the real world and computers can only go so far for rendering numbers–there is a whole branch of mathematics devoted to estimating the errors in approximations).

And especially in the post on e, I talked about raising numbers to fractional powers. OK…at first blush, that is just plain screwy. e you might have a grip on. e2…well you multiply e x e. And e15…well it’s a lot of work and even the most sadistic math teacher wouldn’t expect that done longhand, but you just multiply 1.0 times e, then repeat..a total of fifteen times. But what in the heck does it mean to raise e to the 2.4th power? e2.4 is 1.0 times e…2.4 times. But multiplication is a single operation, you can’t do 4/10ths of a multiplication. It’s either done or it’s not done. And that’s not because e is irrational and transcendental, you have the same issue with 2x.

A similar question arises when someone talks about raising a number to a negative power…what does it mean to multiply 1 by xnegative three times? That one’s a bit easier, and I’ll give you a hint up front…division is the opposite of multiplication. Read on for the answer.

Yet with all these questions about what powers other than 1, 2, 3, etc. mean, you see a nice smooth graph of ex, like this one, with values drawn in between the integer powers:

You’ll note that the line goes through x=1, x=2 and so forth as if it’s meaningful to raise e to any power…fractions, compound numbers, irrational numbers, transcendental numbers, you-name-it. How do we know that line is smooth between e1 and e2, e2 and e3, and so forth, instead of jiggling all over the place in some wacky way that only just has to cross through the integer powers?

Well, it seems fairly intuitive that e2.5, whatever the heck it means, should be somewhere between e2 and e3. And that e2.25 really ought to be somewhere between e2 and e2.5. Follow that one far enough and you have a plausible argument that whatever that line should do, it should climb the whole way between e squared and e cubed, and not jiggle around. That’s not a solid proof, but a fairly strong suggestion. And of course that still leaves the possibility of the line being straight or even convex upward between the knowable, sensible points.

But we can actually go there, in a much more rigorous way–and the graph has it right. Nice smooth curve.

Consider what it means to raise some number, like, say, two, to an integer power…like, say, ten. In other words, 210. That;s simply 2·2·2·2·2·2·2·2·2·2 = 1024 (and that’s where You-Know-Who’s fraction of Indian (feather, not dot) ancestry comes from).

What happens if you multiply 24 by 23? Let’s see…that’s 2·2·2·2 multiplied by 2·2·2…which is to say, 2·2·2·2·2·2·2 or 27. And 7 happens to be 4 + 3. That’s not a coincidence. Provided you’re working from the same base, here 2 in both cases, (rather than doing 24 times 35, where they are different) you simply add the exponents. That’s a quick shortcut in algebra, where you might have to multiply x4 by x3. You just write x7. (But if you’re faced with x4 multiplied by y3, you’re stuck with x4y3.)

You can similarly divide by subtracting exponents, because dividing is the opposite of multiplying, and subtracting is the opposite of addition. So: x4/ x3 is x4-3 = x1 = x. Or written out, x·x·x·x/x·x·x. The three xs on the bottom cancel out three xs on top leaving you with x. And if the latter number is bigger than the first number, you end up with a negative power. That means more xs on the bottom, and (if you’re dealing with x3-4, you end up with x–1 = 1/x.

So a negative power is just the reciprocal of the same positive power. Thus x-3 is 1/x3, etc.

And you now know that any number raised to the zeroth power is 1. In other words, x0 = 1, no matter what x is. Don’t believe me? Do some algebra. Divide x2 by x2 to get 1, then do the same thing by subtracting the exponents.

OK, now for the next trick. There is a number–let’s call it s, which, when you square it, gives you 2. So s2 is 2. Or, s·s = 2. Or strictly speaking, s·s = 21. But we’ve already seen that you can get a number, raised to a power, by raising that number to other powers and adding the powers. So, you could figure s is two raised to some power, and multiply them together, like this 2p·2p=21. So what is p then? What is the one number, which when added to itself equals one? That’s ½.

So we have: 2½·2½=21.

Of course, s, which is equal to 2½, is simply the square root of 2. So…raising a number to the 1/2 power gives you its square root. And raising a number to its 1/3 power is the same as taking its cube root. And so on. That means to take the nth root of a number…you can divide the exponent, whatever it is, by n. The cube root of some number, x, is symbolized by first writing x as x1, so that it has an exponent…then dividing the exponent by 3.

So do you want to know what 22.4 is? Now we can figure it out. It’s 22 x 21/5 x 21/5 because 2.4 = 2+1/5+1/5. Or you can treat it as 212/5. To compute that, multiply 1 by 2…repeating 11 times for a total of 12 multiplications. Then take the fifth root.

No, I am not suggesting you do this, but at least now you can see what a calculator might be doing behind the scenes when you enter 2, then xy, then 2.4.

How about raising the power of some number, to yet another number? Like, say, raising 2 to the third power, then raising that to the fourth power? In other words, (23)4? Well, let’s see, that would be (23)·(23)·(23)·(23) which we already know you can figure out by adding 3+3+3+3 to get 212. But it’s also multiplying 3 by 4 to get 12. So when you raise a power to another power, you multiply the two exponents. (And again the base…the number you’re raising…has to match–in this case it will match.)

I said a couple of paragraphs ago that your calculator might be raising a number to a power, then taking some root of it, to compute a fractional power. But it’s probably not. Taking some weird root of a number is hard. (It’s easier using certain tricks, but still…) There is instead something called the Taylor Series. And unfortunately, deriving it requires calculus, but it can be used for any “infinitely differentiable” (i.e., “smooth-curve”) function.

You use it to approximate the value of some function that might be otherwise very hard to compute. Just run it out as far as you like; eventually you’ll see your answer isn’t changing enough to change the last digit on the calculator’s display, and you stop. (That’s called “converging on the value.”)

Here’s the full Taylor series. Don’t worry too much about it; it’s about to get much simpler.

{\displaystyle f(a)+{\frac {f'(a)}{1!}}(x-a)+{\frac {f''(a)}{2!}}(x-a)^{2}+{\frac {f'''(a)}{3!}}(x-a)^{3}+\cdots ,}

(For calculus geeks and the brave: A is some number you want to start from; most of the time that just gets set to zero and when you do that, it’s called the Maclaurin series. The fs with all the tick marks are derivatives of the function f. And the ! notation means to multiply a number by all the smaller numbers, so 6! is 6x5x4x3x2x1=720.)

As I said, you can use any smooth function here. And it just so happens that raising a positive number to the power x gives you a smooth function. So we can use the Taylor/Maclaurin series.

If that number you’re raising happens to be e then it gets very simple. The Taylor series for ex simplifies as follows if a=0…because the derivatives of ex are all themselves ex. So you’re taking ex of zero…over and over again. But that’s just one. And with a equals zero all of those (x-a)s become simply x. So you’re left with:

{\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}\sum _{n=0}^{\infty }{\frac {x^{n}}{n!}}&={\frac {x^{0}}{0!}}+{\frac {x^{1}}{1!}}+{\frac {x^{2}}{2!}}+{\frac {x^{3}}{3!}}+{\frac {x^{4}}{4!}}+{\frac {x^{5}}{5!}}+\cdots \\&=1+x+{\frac {x^{2}}{2}}+{\frac {x^{3}}{6}}+{\frac {x^{4}}{24}}+{\frac {x^{5}}{120}}+\cdots .\end{aligned}}}

(Sorry if you don’t know calculus…you can take my word for it…or dig, somewhere. If you can’t dig, ask other people who know calculus to confirm I’m not just some guy on the internet bullshitting you…rather, I’m just some guy on the internet actually giving you the straight dope. Will miracles never cease?)

Notice One Very Cool Thing: You’re computing ex without actually using the number e. And you’re doing it without having to take some weird root of the number for a fractional case. And x can be a fraction, a compound number, the square root of 2, some negative version of any of these…you name it! It’s all multiplication, division, and addition. You just have to keep going until it converges. Which, granted, might be a long time.

Yes, it’s a lot of arithmetic…but arithmetic is what calculators do.

I just set this up in a spreadsheet. Each term is simply x/n times the previous term, then you add them all up. So if I raise e1, it converges on 2.718281828 after twelve steps (and you’re just adding 1+1+1/2+1/6+1/24+1/120…). So you can compute e this way, as far out as you like. However, if I raise e10, it takes 35 steps to converge on 22,026.46579. The farther away from zero you get, the longer it will take to converge. Your calculator would probably take some shortcuts; I could guess what they are (and bore you, if I haven’t already) and probably be wrong anyway.

OK, well that’s bloody nice, you might be saying. But what if I want to raise some other number to a fractional exponent? Like, say, ten? Surely ten is a more useful base than friggin’ e is! So….just for an example, what’s 103.7?

This series can help you do that!

There is some number, call it q, that if you raise e to that power, you get 10. In other words, eq=10. Or in yet other words, q is the natural logarithm of 10, q = ln(10). (Apparently ln was chosen as the symbol for this by the French…or some other language that would want to put “natural” after “logarithm.”)

[Logarithms deserve their own post…and they’re not going to get one, at least not in this little miniseries. Suffice it to say you can figure out what two numbers multiplied together is…by adding their logarithms. Calculators probably use them a lot, too, inside and behind the scenes.]

How does that help us? Well, your original problem, “what’s 103.7?” is equivalent to “what’s (eq)3.7? But we already know that that is the same as: eq·3.7. Remember how you multiply exponents, to take the exponent of an exponent? And we know how to raise e to any power; use the series!

You just need to know what the natural log of your desired base is. And your desired base can be anything…a fraction, an irrational number…you name it, as long as you can get there by raising e to some notional power, you can use it. You just need to know what that notional power actually is.

Well, guess what, there’s a Taylor series for that too, a series for ln(x). I’m not going to hit you with that, though, because it won’t matter down the road. Suffice it to say natural logs are readily obtainable…naturally.

OK…so where are we?

We went from wondering how the heck you can raise numbers to negative and fractional values, and wondering how to raise an irrational, even transcendental, number like e to a power…to realizing that fractional and negative powers actually do mean something, and being able to raise e to any fractional or negative value without even having to use the number e to do it, using nothing but multiplication, division and addition. Pretty slick. And going from there to being able to raise any real number to any real power.

You might not be impressed but your calculator loves it.

A lot of the problem is that people are taught half of what they’ll need to know about, say, exponents…..and then are given YEARS to forget all that before they are taught anything more.

Gail Combs

Coothie, you asked about Benedryl and ponies yesterday.

First, the smell of smoke has arrived in my neck of the woods and my allergies have gone nutz … DARN IT!!!

Ponies DO get allergies, either heaves (sort of like asthma where they cough and their lungs fill up and they can die.) Also they can get hives from insect stings or they get runny eyes. I actually have one pony allergic to hay (The mold in the hay to be precise.)

So far it has ALWAYS been the ‘red heads’ who have the problems.

It used to be you could get Tri-Hist Granules## that worked for 12 hours. It is in a corn meal base and very easy to feed. Unfortunately the product contained Sudafed so it was taken off the market and now we have NOTHING to replace it. For a while my vet gave me Guaifenesin which is used to help clear mucus or phlegm from the lungs in humans. However he found it was pretty useless in ‘heavy’ horses and quit prescribing it. So that leaves OTC benedryl. I grind up 2 caplets per 100 lbs of body weight. I spread molasses on bread and then add the powder — CAREFULLY — and try to get the molasses to ‘wet out’ the powder without having the powder spill onto the bread. A real PITA!! The powder likes to sit on top of the molasses and NOT mix so it takes a while to get the powder coated.

The powder is very bitter and Hubby did not mix it well one time. I now have a pony who panics at the sight of a slice of bread. 🙄 So with him I use a LOT of molasses mixed with the powder and placed in a syringe. I layer it. pure molasses/ medicated molasses/ pure molasses so he gets the proper dose.

## I am going to have to ask the vet if I can now get it via prescription although now it has more than doubled in price.

Yesterday, the air quality index of 113 in the Raleigh-Durham area was the worst one has ever experienced. You could smell the smoke in the atmosphere even in the house with the windows closed. The atmosphere was filled with a weird-looking “haze.” They closed the golf course that backs up to one’s property for the day.
Today’s index isn’t much better.

TradeBait2

Ours has gone up higher, but is still under 50 in east TN. Got some rain coming tomorrow night and Monday that will help.

But there are times you can really smell the smoke and see the haze in areas that normally don’t have it.

Gingersmom2009

113, really? We were thanking God when it got DOWN to 113, as it had been 350+ for an extended period. You don’t even want to know how it looked and smelled. On the candy-ass east coast.

What a tiny bunch of self-absorbed jackasses this place has become – going around your cul-de-sac.

I realized I had not signed out. Done deal.

mollypitcher5

I must be sporting an iron lung or something but in my neck of the woods in Cali there were so many times it was bad smoke and ash but I never heard of many having hospital visits and major issues other than it being irritating.
Is there something in this Canadian smoke, like chemicals or something ?

I was at a Fish Club meeting, talking with one of the guys, and mentioned Candy Ass East Coast — and he said, “that’s just what my wife calls ’em.”

Gingersmom2009

Right. Almost 400 air quality for an extended period, right here in NJ, the candy-ass east coast. As I said above, we were happy when it went DOWN to 113. What a jerk.

Ozzytrumpster

Cali has a lot of eucalyptus which is used on inhalants. May counterbalance the smoke

You might not be impressed but your calculator loves it.

I am impressed, and my calculator wishes I would use this sometimes instead of just adding numbers and figuring percentages. 😀

cthulhu

Sadly, calculators seem to make people less familiar with numbers — they want to stuff ’em in a box and hit “equals” instead of thinking about what they are doing.

There’s a famous tale of a young mathematician in Elementary School. The teacher, looking to fill time, had the entire class add up the numbers from 1 to 100. This kid (IIRC, Goethe), popped up with “5,050” before the class even got rolling.

He reasoned as following — take the first number, 1, and the last number, 100 — they add to 101. Then, take the second number, 2, and the second-to-last number, 99 — and they also add to 101. If he kept doing that 50 times, he’d end up with 50 and 51 — which still add up to 101. Fifty times 101 is 5050.

If he’d taken the “easy” way and used a calculator, he’d still be punching numbers….but he lived in a pre-calculator world. He had learned to understood numbers in a different way.

TheseTruths

Interesting!

cthulhu

Then, again, I always liked the one about the student measuring the height of a building with a barometer….

“Find the Building Super. Offer to give him the barometer if he tells you the height of the building.”

cthulhu

Another method — pick a sunny day and measure their shadows….

cthulhu

Sell the barometer at a pawn shop (or to a passing stranger) and get a subway ticket. Go downtown to City Hall and ask to review the permits for the building…..

cthulhu

In case you’re wondering, the “official” answer is to use the barometer to measure air pressure at the top and bottom of the building. A pesky kid refused to give the “official” answer on a test and got an F. He was offered a “make-up” and took it, using a different method which was not “official” — so he got an F. Then he sued, and made the school system eat their stupid question — slowly, chewing it thoroughly.

cthulhu

Ah, it is said that this was raised in an academic setting — https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barometer_question

Nothing like a Smart Ass Kid that is really really intelligent.

NOTE TO TEACHERS: ALWAYS check if the kid has lawyers for parents, BEFORE you pull stupid commie schiff on the kid.

TheseTruths

And accommodate the kids’ intelligence. Encourage them instead of punishing them.

Gail Combs

They used to sort kids by intelligence so the teachers could make the correct adjustments based on the kids abilities.

Then the Commies got into the act. So now they mix the kids and give Ritalin to the intelligent kids to MAKE them like the slower kids….

And NO I AM NOT KIDDING!

I can not find the article I want, No doubt it is long gone, but I did find this:

Ritalin stunts growth of children; long-term risk to children’s health unknown

…The truth is that ADHD kids aren’t diseased at all: Most schools are simply boring beyond belief, and children don’t learn well by being forced to sit still at their desks and listen to teachers ramble their way through meaningless memorization exercises dubbed “history” or “science” or whatever the topic may be. Children learn by doing things, and all that extra hyperactive energy has a useful function if it’s channeled into experiential learning exercises….

Nutritional research has shown that the symptoms of ADHD can be completely reversed in 80 percent of children in just two weeks by eliminating processed foods and chemical food additives from their diets. The so-called “disease” of ADHD is really just an expression of behavior caused by extreme dietary imbalances. The entire theory of ADHD can also be completely shot down by simply handing an ADHD child an X-Box or Wii gaming system, after which the child will sit down and engage in extremely focused, attentive and mentally demanding gaming activities for as long as six hours without a single break, and without distraction. If there really were such as disease as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, such behavior would not be possible….

This new research about Ritalin stunting the growth of children does not answer the question of whether children ever regain their normal height and body weight, or whether Ritalin causes a permanent stunting of growth that cannot be reversed. It does make us wonder, however, whether a drug that stunts physical growth might also stunt the growth of brain cells and the nervous system, leading to intellectually stunted children at the same time that it produces physically stunted children…

Get the kids OFF sugar and caffeine and ON to bikes or other good exercise! There was a reason we had a bit of ‘recess’ before classes started and again after lunch as well as Gym. Kids NEED to run around just like puppies or kittens or goat kids!

Ritalin ‘may cause damage to brains’

…..Children given Ritalin to control hyperactivity could be permanently brain damaged, it was claimed yesterday. Research suggests the controversial ‘chemical cosh’ drug raises the risk of depression and anxiety in adulthood. Ritalin alters the brain’s chemical composition so that it has a lasting effect on mental health, US scientists believe.

…The 700% increase in psychostimulant use that occurred in the 1990s justifies concern about potential overdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment of child behavior problems… from the early to mid-1990s the rate of ADHD treatment (i.e., school-administered Ritalin) among white boys in Baltimore County elementary schools was over 15%….

…As many as 20 percent of college students have used Ritalin or Adderall to study, write papers and take exams, according to recent surveys focused on individual campuses. A study released this month by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse at Columbia found that the number of teenagers who admit to abusing prescription medications tripled from 1992 to 2003, while in the general population such abuse had doubled….

His doc that diagnosed ADHD when I thought he had dyslexia (he’d get the beginning & end of a word correct but just make up the middle) said if he had another year with that teacher he could be scarred for life. Fortunately she left that school & his issues eventually dissipated to some degree.

Sorry, overcome by flashbacks…..

If you’re looking for financial information about any public company, you can look for it here — https://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch

If you want to see a quarterly report, that’s a 10-Q. An annual report is a 10-K. In it, they include financial statements.

When you’re maintaining the books of a company, everything has to balance to the penny. When you’re presenting financial statements to the US markets and the SEC, you typically round to the millions or something…..

The thing is, the stuff on the page has to add up.

Let’s say you have 10.4 + 10.4 + 10.4 + 10.9 = 42.1.

Then you round it to even numbers and it says 10 + 10 + 10 + 11 = 42.

So someone, generally a junior staff member, has to manually screw around with rounding to make it 10 + 11 + 10 + 11 = 42.

You have to preserve the big number, the 42. You can’t change a number that will have to be changed back in a subsequent year — so you can’t revalue your headquarters building. You can’t change a number that shows up in a bunch of different parts of the financials. You can’t change anything that the CFO has mentioned in a conference call….but you have to bury the rounding discrepancy — and there’s no automated way of doing it (at least, back when I was involved).

Valerie Curren

There was some fictional End Times book I read way back, I think it was written by the late Christian author & financial “guru” Larry Burkett. Anyway his creative solution to funding the survivors of the Apocalypse was to somehow take the fractional pennies of bank rounding calculations & collect them in an account for use by the latter day Christians. He made is sound “legal” & plausible…if only we could get those crumbs from our “masters'” tables, hmmm 😉

I read a novel where some type of space time wormhole effect dropped a small section of modern America into the midst of the Hundred Years War (actually 30 years war), like in Germany I believe. I think it was called 1517 or some other year…oops, 1632. Very interesting to see how modern theories could be adapted to make middle ages situations & industry so much more productive. AND finding a way to meld disparate times & cultures. I got one of my history buff kids to read it too 🙂

FREEDOM AND JUSTICE — AMERICAN STYLE 1632 And in northern Germany things couldn’t get much worse. Famine. Disease. Religous war laying waste the cities. Only the aristocrats remained relatively unscathed; for the peasants, death was a mercy. 2000 Things are going OK in Grantville, West Virginia, and everybody attending the wedding of Mike Stearn’s sister (including the entire local chapter of the United Mine Workers of America, which Mike leads) is having a good time. THEN, EVERYTHING CHANGED…. When the dust settles, Mike leads a group of armed miners to find out what happened and finds the road into town is cut, as with a sword. On the other side, a scene out of Hell: a man nailed to a farmhouse door, his wife and daughter attacked by men in steel vests. Faced with this, Mike and his friends don’t have to ask who to shoot. At that moment Freedom and Justice, American style, are introduced to the middle of the Thirty Years’ War.

An abacus is an adding machine. Slide rules multiply using logarithms and force people to understand magnitudes.

Logarithms are the opposite of the exponential functions such as e^x or 10^a or 2^n. To the extent that these exponential functions also are called antilogs.

The practical utility, which was big before the days of calculators, was that in order to multiply or divide some large numbers, it was easier to take the logarithms of them, (done by looking their digits up in a table) then add or subtract these, then do the antilog (the exponent, look for the value of this in the logarithm table, using it in the opposite direction) on the sum or difference, in order to convert back to what is the product or quotient.

This will work no matter whether the base of the logarithm and the antilog is e, 10, 2, or anything else, but as most practical numbers are decimal, the base-10 logarithms were the most useful for this.

Valerie Curren

So they were a form of a shortcut mathematically speaking…as long as one had access to the table (or perhaps the slide rule?) so Not knowing How to “do” a log wasn’t necessarily the issue but being able to Use a log table (when & how) was?

Valerie Curren

That was some math genius who came up with the slide rule apparently. Thanks for this explanation, which makes a lot of sense to me 🙂

slowcreekno

We learned about the logarithms and what they were useful for, back in high school. We had a booklet, with the various tables for logarithms, sine, cosine, tangent, error-functions; as well as the factors, 2nd and 3rd powers and roots of all the integers up to 1000.

This was just before small handheld calculators with scientific functions were available and affordable. The practical uses was in physics classes where things were measured and values calculated — in the math classes the answers usually should be exact, that is, leaving square-roots and fractions as such: sqrt(2)/2 in math class, 0.7071 in physics class.

I must have hit HS just after that so I missed the pre-calculator tables as far as I can recall.

I think that I was exposed to logs in college in calculus but cannot recall now. HS was 3 years for me & one was algebra, one was geometry, & one was trig. Physics was in college for me too. HS was bio, chem, & anatomy I think.

Valerie Curren

I had a toy abacus as a kid but just liked to make noise with the pretty colored beads 🙂

cthulhu

You were halfway there.

cthulhu
Valerie Curren

That was very understandable. My toy wasn’t aligned like that so may not have actually been an abacus at all but just some beads on wires in a curving frame 🙂

There is another sort of abacus that has four beads down and one bead up — it’s like the “speedster version” but is less easy to get to know.

Websites nowadays have to take into account your browser so all the html and other scripts present the info to you the way the website designer intends. It’s purely about helping them get through the variations in how different browsers handle things. MSoft always seems to deviate from the standard because their engineers always thought they had to rewrite stuff. They wrote their own memory manager that Apple provides for the Mac OS and that’s why Msoft was always slower to release Mac updates of their software.

NOTICE THE PURPLE!!

Hilary Clinton and the PURPLE REVOLUTION

November 11, 2016 The Clintons and Soros Launch America’s Purple Revolution

Defeated Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton is not about to «go quietly into that good night». On the morning after her surprising and unanticipated defeat at the hands of Republican Party upstart Donald Trump, Mrs. Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, entered the ball room of the art-deco New Yorker hotel icomment image midtown Manhattan and were both adorned in purple attire. The press immediately noticed the color and asked what it represented. Clinton spokespeople claimed it was to represent the coming together of Democratic «Blue America» and Republican «Red America» into a united purple blend…

Unlike the author, I interpret that to mean the DemonRats and RINOS are UNITING to DESTROY POTUS Trump.

BEWARE: The Purple Revolution Comes To Americathemillenniumreport.com — 2016/11

Truly, it was only a matter of time before a CIA color revolution was staged right in America’s own back yard.

Soros’s “Purple Revolution” brewing for Trump presidency

As a matter of historical fact, the US Department of State in collaboration with the CIA, DIA and NSA has carried out so many color revolutions around the globe over the past century that it boggles the mind. Hence, the seeds of karma have been insidiously planted only to emerge as the tree of destiny now being experienced by every U.S. citizen.

First, Obama was permitted to execute a slow-motion tearing of the social fabric throughout the USA now known as the Obamanation. His creation of various Czars and installation of key appointees guaranteed that a Stasi state would be surreptitiously built. The resulting quasi-communist, part-fascist progressivism known as “political correctness” has taken the United States into a place not too different from the USSR. Had Hillary R. Clinton won the election, the USSA would have manifested as a full-blown socialist A M E R I K A.

The Soros-Clinton-Obama Crowd Will Not Stand Down

Everyone and their brother have always known that the Clintonistas WOULD NOT LOSE THIS ELECTION, gracefully or otherwise. That they would not tolerate a Trump victory even when he won by an electoral vote landslide. Paid fanatical anarchists and agents provocateur simply don’t have to accept the democratic result of a free and lawful election—just ask George Soros.

Here’s How Every 2024 GOP Candidate Responded To Trump’s DOJ Indictment
https://trendingpoliticsnews.com/heres-how-every-2024-gop-candidate-responded-to-trumps-doj-indictment-mstef/?utm_source=sheri&utm_medium=twitter

My summary: They clutched their pearls about the fact of it, then threw Trump under the bus.

Asa Hutchinson called for Trump to drop out of the race. 😂 Nice try, but no dice.🤣

Chris Christie said we don’t get our facts from Trump’s Truth Social account, that we have to see what the facts are, and that no one is above the law. 😡😡😡

Tim Scott made an empty promise: “As President of the United States, I would purge all of the injustices and impurities in our system so that every American can have confidence that they will be seen by the Lady of Justice with a blindfold on.” How he would do that, we don’t know, of course.

Same for DeSantis: “The DeSantis administration will bring accountability to the DOJ, excise political bias and end weaponization once and for all.” Yawn.

Vivek Ramaswamy, too: “We have to restore the rule of law in America.” Yesterday he was generous enough to say he would pardon Trump. (/sarc , but he really said it)

Nothing in the article from Nikki Haley, Larry Elder, Doug Bergum, or other no-name people who have zero chance of even making it to the debate stage (which is probably why they were left out).

cthulhu

Let’s see how many show in Miami….

TheseTruths

IMO, the most politically savvy of them all is Vivek, although I don’t trust him since his first reaction was not to state Trump’s innocence, but to say he would pardon him. (In other words, campaigning off of this.) It would not surprise me if he showed up.

The poor babies are in a tough position. If they show up, someone might think they have an ounce of support for Trump in their selfish, power-hungry psyches. And if they don’t show up, the MAGA base will chalk it up as another strike against them, never to be forgotten.

But if they do go, it will be to campaign, so I’d rather they stay away.

Gail Combs

“…the most politically savvy of them all is Vivek…”

Yes, I would agree. He, unlike the rest, knows he has to woo the diehard Trump supports and NOT antagonize them. It is a real tightrope walk. Ronda is TOO STUPID to realize that and is losing ground FAST!

Valerie Curren

no Pence posturing?

TheseTruths

How could I have left out Pence? 😀

Former Vice President Mike Pence, on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show, called on Attorney General Merrick Garland to hold a press conference and explain his reasoning for bringing charges against Trump directly to the American people.

Not a bad idea on its face, but given the players, it would just be a meaningless exercise.

Otherwise, Garland has nothing I am interested in.

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene said Thursday she has introduced articles of impeachment against President Joe Biden and other members of his administration.

On Wednesday, Greene announced during a House hearing Wednesday her intention to impeach Matthew Graves, U.S. attorney for Washington, saying he has refused to prosecute “real criminals” while targeting Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol protesters.

On Thursday morning, she targeted Biden and others over the executive branch’s failure to secure the country’s southern border.

The Georgia Republican said she intends to impeach the president and those tasked with protecting the country’s sovereignty….

TheseTruths

Then I repeat my question above, only regarding getting on with it. I saw Nancy Mace being interviewed yesterday, and Congress is investigating, to their credit. There are other 1023 forms that they are trying to get from Wray. If they have to wait on all that to actually impeach, it could take years.

Amazing rant by “Five Times August” in response to being asked why they’re afraid of gay people. 👏👏👏

Nobody is afraid of gay people. Have you considered the possibility, though, that the vast majority of America is just exhausted of an obnoxious, self absorbed, entitled, narcissistic, confused and angry rainbow cult religion being shoved down our families throats every single day? And that none of you are actually victims but extremely privileged brats? And that maybe you’ve been programmed by mainstream media to regurgitate words like “hate” or “afraid” as a knee-jerk response to anyone who’s just not putting up with your insane crap perspective on life? Because maybe we have certain values we’re trying to teach our kids without rainbow barf interfering every time we leave the house? Like the idea they’re actually perfect just as God made them the day they were born, and maybe they don’t need to cut up their body and irreversibly hurt themselves to be happy, especially before they’re old enough to drive? Or that they have more to offer the world than dressing in drag and dancing for cash tips in front of five year olds? Have you considered the world doesn’t actually revolve around you and what your pronouns are? I understand this is a hard concept to grasp because the world, quite literally right now, *is* revolving around the Pride cult in every way possible… from TV and movies, books and children’s entertainment, corporate brands and commercials, up to the highest levels of government down to the public elementary school system… but guess what? It’s all a show, buddy. It doesn’t represent reality. It’s an agenda designed to divide and conquer, confuse kids, sexualize them and separate families. It’s perverse. And if you’re going to stand there and tell me all of this is in the name of progress or that my perspective is “outdated” as your friends in the movement enjoy doing, you tell me what we’re progressing to then. Once drag queen story hours and kink parades are truly accepted by society as “kid friendly” and appropriate “family entertainment” where do you “progress” from there? When are those things going to be looked back on as “outdated” and what comes next? 🤔 I think you know. We all know. And that’s why so many are putting their foot down here. It goes no further.

Jewish holidays?

cthulhu

There is an old story…..

Hitler was fascinated by the occult. He obviously loathed and mistrusted Jews, but heard that in the Jewish ghetto of Warsaw lived a soothsayer of unparalleled accuracy. He sent his gestapo to fetch the man.

Hauled before him, he asked a question that was at the top of his mind — “when shall I die?” The soothsayer replied, “you will die on a Jewish holiday.”

“Which one?”, demanded Hitler — “Rosh Hashanah? Passover? Sukkot?” …. but the soothsayer said not another word. He had the man beaten, and threatened his family, but the man remained silent. Finally, he had the Jew dragged away and dumped in the street.

And as they left him there, he muttered quietly — under his breath so they couldn’t hear — “any day you die will be a Jewish holiday.”

WHY?

We are a CHRISTIAN country.

 63% of the US population is Christian

1.1% of U.S. adults have a Jewish background.

Muslims — 1.1% of the total US population.

According to WIKI:

Hinduism is a minority religion in the United States of America, ranking third-largest after Christianity and Irreligion [atheist or agnostic or rejecting religion], and equally ranking with Buddhism, Islam, and Judaism, constituting 1% of the population.

Did you read the Dune series & the prequels by Frank Herbert’s son, Brian, iirc? Perhaps not enough hard science in those tomes but good insights on human nature…

Valerie Curren

I read the whole original Dune stuff when a teen & quite a few of the prequel stuff as a youngish parent. Given the decade+ time between those readings I still found the prequels pretty enjoyable. I probably don’t have as high of standards on Sci Fi as you do 😉

Do you enjoy Piers Anthony?

Valerie Curren

That makes sense. With prequels there is no end to the possibilities it would seem. Yeah it’s probably a cash cow for BH but it is kind of fun to get more of the Dune universe, though unofficially, of course!

Herbert’s Consentiency books were also good — actually, he had all sorts of odd ones that were good reads.

Trump Suit Against Niece Over NY Times Story Advances: Judge

Donald Trump can proceed with a lawsuit against his niece Mary Trump for providing information to the New York Times for its 2018 report on his taxes, a judge ruled.

New York state court Justice Robert Reed on Friday rejected Mary Trump’s argument that the former president’s lawsuit violated a state law against frivolous litigation “aimed at chilling freedom of speech and the press.”

That’s sad. I think there are many more factors than that now this person is a “man” and that has made her lonely. Intrinsic to being a “man” is all the knowledge that she’s not really one, that her body parts are probably different than those of both real women and men, and that she’s looking at the situation from a perspective that real men don’t have to deal with. It’s all outside of the norm, and that’s part of what she’s going through, not just differences in how genders relate to one another.

One suspects that all the items which appear to be “gold-colored” in both photos — especially the photo with “Blinkie” and the Crown Prince — are actual gold leaf, NOT gold-colored or gold-infused paint. Even the waste baskets underneath the (gold-gilded) tables beside each chair. Even the gold decorations on the walls.
And, by the way, the U.S. flag is missing that should be behind “Blinkie” since it’s a visit from a Cabinet-level U.S. official. ** Interesting **, no?

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.

“According to the Biden DOJ leaker, the ridiculous plan was discussed later in a meeting with Mark Meadows who was writing a book. Trump suggests he would like to share the information during the meeting but he’s aware of limitations on his ability post-presidency to declassify records.
This was the alleged “smoking gun” that Jack Smith is using to imprison President Trump.”

MY question, as WH cheif of staff would Mark Meadows have a security clearance.
If he has, why would it matter what PDJT spoke to him about.

pat frederick

if i remember correctly, the audio tape was made by a third person (helping to write the book?) that’s why there’s a transcript–so THAT person may not have a clearance.
but the transcript shows Smith altered the tape–leaving out words which changed the meaning from a what if kind of situation to a definite.

Paul Sperry
@paulsperry_

For the sake of solar power, let’s hope Canada can bring its rampaging arsonists to heel. That’s because the shroud of smoke that covered much of the Eastern US seaboard, has sent solar power generation in parts of the eastern US plummeting by more than 50% as wildfires rage in Canada.

According to the region’s grid operator, solar farms powering New England were producing 56% less energy at times of peak demand compared with the week before. Meanwhile, Bloomberg reports that electricity generated by solar across the territory serviced by PJM Interconnection LLC, which spans Illinois to North Carolina, was down about 25% from the previous week.

WRONG!!!

They steal more like 60%, they just don’t TELL YOU, instead they hide it…

Reagan:

…start with the staff of life, a loaf of bread. The simplest thing; the poorest man must have it. Well, there are 151 taxes now in the price of a loaf of bread—it accounts for more than half the cost of a loaf of bread. It begins with the first tax, on the farmer that raised the wheat. Any simpleton can understand that if that farmer cannot get enough money for his wheat, to pay the property tax on his farm, he can’t be a farmer. He loses his farm. And so it is with the fellow who pays a driver’s license and a gasoline tax to drive the truckload of wheat to the mill, the miller who has to pay everything from social security tax, business license, everything else. He has to make his living over and above those costs. So they all wind up in that loaf of bread. Now an egg isn’t far behind and nobody had to make that. There’s a hundred taxes in an egg by the time it gets to market and you know the chicken didn’t put them there!

Branded the “Unabomber” by the FBI, Kaczynski died at the federal prison medical center in Butner, North Carolina, Kristie Breshears, a spokesperson for the federal Bureau of Prisons, told The Associated Press.

Next door neighbors who moved to east TN from Cali 2.5 years ago had a medical emergency this past week. The wife had a panic attack over her recently developing health issue of diabetes. The paramedics came along with two deputies, which indicated there was some type of psychotic break.

Her husband came over today to visit for other purposes and confirmed it all. It was in this conversation he stated that 1.5 years ago before they moved in he had a stroke at age 67. He had taken the Pfizer jabs. He has now learned the truth about them and his doc confirmed that it was the likely cause. Up to that point he had been neutral about vaccines in general as they were required a lot in his career and he had no problems until these.

The man is in otherwise great physical condition. Eats well, blood markers are flawless, perfect weight. Puts in three miles a day of fitness walking or light jogging. Was an Army Ranger for 20 years followed by being an LAPD officer before retirement. Eats right, Christian, no booze. His wife is in excellent physical condition otherwise as well in terms of weight, exercise, nutrition, devout Christian, etc. But yet now she is developing diabetes late in life with psychotic events.

The common denominator is both took the Pfizer JABS with their health issues showing up soon after. They are highly conservative and are so happy to get out of Cali. But nobody told them what could happen by taking the jabs or they were not paying attention like so many of our other fellow citizens. Good people being injured everywhere.

Oh Lord, how sad about your neighbors.
A “full-blown” panic attack can mimic several serious medical emergencies, including heart attack, emotional meltdown, even an epileptic episode.
I hope everything turned out all right for the wife and it was a panic attack only.
IMO, the woman probably needs to be evaluated by an MD and start taking an antidepressant to get the panic issues under control, perhaps in conjunction with professional therapy by a psychologist or psychiatrist.
One hopes both husband and wife will start on protocols like the ones by FLCCC.

IMO, the “vaccine”-engendered injuries and illnesses of the neighbors may fit into what can be called “mid-term” appearance of adverse effects (more than 1 year post-“vaccination.”) This “mid-term” appearance may also explain the growing numbers of “died suddenly” cases.

Masahiro Yano, et al.

Yours Truly is NOT deliberately trying to be “Debby Downer” here.
However, the “Medical Tsunami” of COVID-19 “vaccine”-engendered injures, illnesses, and deaths are just now starting to show up in real numbers. The “establishment medical” types will likely attribute these injuries, illnesses, and deaths to “other reasons”, like “unhealthy lifestyle” or “previous underlying medical issues.”
BUT — unless these “establishment medical professionals” have been living under a rock for the past 3 years, or are so afraid of losing their medical licenses that they’re still spouting the CDC / FDA / AMA nonsense — they KNOW that the COVID-19 “vaccines” are very much in play as causation and/or aggravation.
IMO, many, if not most, “vaccinated” persons are at risk for “vaccine”-engendered adverse side effects. This includes “vaccinated” family members, friends, and business associates. No matter how healthy they were at time of “vaccination” and/or how healthy they are right now.
IMO, every person who ever took any COVID-19 “vaccine”, no matter when, needs to follow a protocol to try to reduce, mitigate, or cleanse the effects of the spike protein + its mRNA + the lipid nanoparticles in their body.

That’s where the man already is now with all of this. His wife is just now waking up to it.

RDS

The damage to the body’s immune system appears to be one of the most insidious / cumulative adverse side effects of the COVID-19 ‘vaccines” — along with the cumulative damage and effects to the cardiovascular system, IMO.
From “personal experience”, one can testify that panic-anxiety issues can have a detrimental impact on the immune system. Panic-anxiety is caused by Fear — Fear of the unknown (the future, the outcome, etc.) Once the immune system is compromised, negative impacts can happen.
IMO, there will be any number of “vaccinated” people, once they realize the damage the “vaccines” have done / can do, to their bodies, who could potentially react with panic-anxiety.
IMO, there will be any number of UN-“vaccinated” people, once they realize the damage the “vaccines” have done / can do, to their “vaccinated” loved ones and friends, who could ALSO potentially react with panic-anxiety.
BOTH of these potential reactions, IMO, may be an “emotional reaction” to a possibly dangerous situation (realizing, for example, that a “vaccinated” family member may develop heart issues from the “vaccine”, or actually be diagnosed with such.)
However, it’s when panic-anxiety driven by emotional reactions becomes persistent and/or extreme, it can turn into panic disorder.

Brave and Free

In agreement, I’d be questioning any sudden illness. I’ve been looking at local obituaries in my present local and previous place of residence. The number of people dying in the 30-60 age bracket seems to be very high to me. Died unexpectedly or after a short illness very common. One of my co-workers from afew years ago 42 years old died unexpectedly, healthy non smoker or drinker.

Alan Dershowitz:
The Most Dangerous Indictment in History | Opinion
https://www.newsweek.com/most-dangerous-indictment-history-opinion-1805579?amp=1

For the first time in American history, the leading candidate to defeat the incumbent president has been indicted by the incumbent’s Justice Department. Former President Donald Trump has been indicted by a federal grand jury for illegally retaining classified government documents and obstructing justice.

This is a momentous occasion, and not only for President Trump. This moment portends a massive change in the norms of this nation that all Americans who care about the neutral rule of law should pay close attention to, for it raises the specter of the partisan weaponization of the criminal justice system—not just by the Democrats targeting Trump but by Republicans who will certainly retaliate when they regain control of the criminal charging process.

How do we know this is about political retribution, not the rule of law? Look at the case. One would expect that such an unprecedented criminal prosecution would be the strongest one in political history. And yet, what information we do have suggests a weak case that would never have been brought if it wasn’t being brought against Donald Trump.

Indeed, in my book Get Trump, I predicted that Trump would be indicted. But even writing a book about the massive attacks President Trump sustained from his political adversaries, I could not have imagined that the DOJ would suffice with a charge as meager as the mere possession of classified documents. I thought they would go after Trump over some process crime growing out of the investigation. I assumed that before proceeding, they would develop a far stronger case—certainly stronger than the extraordinarily weak case put forward by District Attorney Alvin Bragg in Manhattan.

It appears that I was wrong. I gave them too much credit.

The indictment has yet to be unsealed, and there is still a slim possibility that there is a smoking gun, as there was in the obstruction cases against Richard Nixon that led his Republican colleagues to demand his resignation. We will know better when the seven-count indictment is made public, presumably on Tuesday. But based on what we know now, this does not seem like a strong case, especially if it is based on the Espionage Act of 1917, as a charge of illegally retaining documents is.

Ironically, the Espionage Act has been condemned by liberals, progressives, and Democrats since it became the open-ended weapon of choice aimed at political dissidents such as Eugene v. Debbs and other anti-war icons. It is vague and capable of being stretched to cover political enemies. So are the other two charges that have been referenced: conspiracy to obstruct Justice and lying to law enforcement officials…

In order for the public to believe that the soon to be disclosed indictment is not politically motivated, it must be far stronger than the cases that were not brought against other political figures and at least as strong as that against Nixon. That is a high bar, but it must be reached if our Justice Department is to maintain any semblance of impartiality.

It will not be enough to show technical violations that are sometimes prosecuted but often not. It is unlikely that the recoding of Trump showing classified material to a writer will suffice, unless prosecutors can establish the contents of these documents and that they were actually read by an unauthorized person. There must be evidence of willful conduct that violates clear and unambiguous laws and that gives honest prosecutors no choice but to indict.

I doubt that these rigorous but necessary criteria have been met in the current indictment against Trump, but I have an open if skeptical mind. As matters stand now, this “momentous” political case threatens to be a momentous challenge to our system of impartial justice.

Hey guys I’ve got a family dilemma that I want to run past the Q-Tree geniuses, involving my hubby’s health.

Very recently Michael has had a number of bouts of extreme digestive discomfort, some of which made him miss work for trucking & frequent bathroom trips are mutually exclusive, especially in the middle of the night when his shift starts.

Any way he thinks that he has Suddenly become gluten intolerant & is now trying to lived gluten free. Secondarily he thinks he might have a degree of lactose intolerance so is using very minimal dairy, butter seems to not bother him.

Now he’s had ZERO food allergies his whole life so this SUDDEN ONSET of issues is very bizarre.

Here are some facts that we are Pretty Sure of:

He has Zero tolerance of bioengineered &/or GMO stuff. Any time he’s accidentally eaten it it ends up messing with him pretty quickly.

About a month ago he was on that hiking/backpacking trip in the Jordan River pathway in Northern Michigan. His hiking buddy mentioned that M’s system was messed up when they went out to eat on their way home from that last hike, so this is the Beginning Point of his current issues it would seem.

On that hiking trip he used a Life Straw water bottle with a new filter so would get fresh water from the river or streams along that 20 mile trip & then it would filter through the straw. Could he have gotten some type of parasite that way that Intermittently would impact him, depending on what he’s eaten?

In the 6 weeks or so that we’ve been dealing with this situation once he went mostly/entirely gluten free he had few issues, except when accidentally eating bioengineered/GMO stuff (Kroger tortilla chips) or small amounts of gluten (Cavender’s Greek Seasoning on grilled chicken).

Is it possible to Suddenly Become Gluten intolerant to an extreme degree?

Could several bioengineered/GMO food encounters in the last few months cause gluten &/or lactose intolerance? Or something that Appears to be such intolerance?

I’m suspicious of the Sudden Onset of these issues & hoping that we can find a different solution than completely cutting gluten out of his diet, which appears to be working pretty well for him right now…

As an aside my dad was told some years ago that he needed to cut out gluten & that he was “allergic” to it. He went gluten free for a couple years before discovering, I forget how now, he wasn’t allergic at all & he eats a completely normal diet now w/ no issues.

IF there is some type of parasite that got through via the “wild water” or bioengineered/GMO food products could going through a course of Ivermectin perhaps kick it (we have some on hand)?

Any thoughts or suggestions? This is such an unexpected & unusual change for him…

Thanks for taking the time to read & ponder this dilemma! Blessings to all!!!

TheseTruths

I’m sorry he’s dealing with this. I am not an expert and these are random thoughts.

Parasite testing seems like a good avenue to pursue. I think you can order tests online yourself, but I don’t know if that’s the best way to go.

Other conditions can cause intestinal symptoms, like Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO).

Researching IVM dosage for parasites seems like a good thing to do. (I bet others here have info about this.)

It seems like you’re keeping track of what causes symptoms, and keeping a detailed food diary could also be helpful (even though it’s a pain to do!).

Hoping and praying for the best.

Valerie Curren

Thanks TT these are all helpful ideas.

He did go to the Urgent Care fairly early on & the NP he saw told him to take Imodium & get Gatorade to replenish his fluids & electrolytes. If he’d continued w/ the intense diarrhea she said he needed to go to an ER due to dehydration risk. Thankfully it never came to that!

Thanks for your prayers! God Bless

“…Could he have gotten some type of parasite that way that Intermittently would impact him, depending on what he’s eaten?….”

GIARDIASIS!!!

This sounds EXACTLY like what my Hubby’s old girl friend had. She could not tolerate milk AT ALL. Good luck getting a doctor to actually LOOK for it. I talked to one mom whose little boy was infected. Out of despiration she gave a sample to her vet, telling them it was from her dog. It came back positive. When the pediatritian found out he threatened to have her arrested because it is illegal to lie about that to the vet. She threatened to sue him for malpractice so it was a stand off and he did treat her son with no further problems.

If your hubby tells the doctor he drank from a stream (Do not mention the straw!!!) The dock will probably do the test for giardia.
….

Beaver fever or giardiasis, like doctors call it, is a very common diarrheal disease. It is called Beaver Fever after an outbreak in which hikers at Banff National Park became ill from drinking stream water contaminated with Giardia from beavers.

…Giardia infection is an intestinal infection marked by stomach cramps, bloating, nausea and bouts of watery diarrhea. Giardia infection is caused by a microscopic parasite that is found worldwide, especially in areas with poor sanitation and unsafe water.

Does Giardia have a smell?

Giardia infection (giardiasis) can cause a variety of intestinal symptoms, which include: Diarrhea. Gas. Foul-smelling, greasy poop that can float…

Giardiasis is very contagious, and can spread easily among families. In childcare centers or any facility caring for a group of people, or people who are traveling, giardiasis can easily pass from person to person.

TheseTruths

If this came from stream water, then it seems the straw didn’t work.

Gail Combs

Could easily have picked it up just by having your hands in the water since it is very transmissable.

OH and the cysts of giardia are NOT EFFECTED BY CHLORINE DISINFECTANTS. That is why I will not drink the local city water.

Valerie Curren

TY for this important info too!

Aubergine

Out here, we are very cautious about stream water.

Valerie Curren

Yes. He thought he’d be safe with backpacking precautions where getting on site water is necessary on those long hikes where it’s impossible to carry sufficient water for one’s needs.

That hiking trip was unseasonably warm & he often dipped a hat &/or shirt in the stream water & let the evaporation help cool him down, in addition to drinking the filtered water via the Life Straw.

Aubergine

Lol, I should have kept reading before commenting! Oh, well. At least we have consensus..

Valerie Curren

You & Gail ROCK…always! It’s good to get differing expressions of even similar info as sometimes those nuances can be key pieces of info. TYSVM!!!

Valerie Curren

TY Gail for these very helpful insights, which I read out to Hubby to consider. He was familiar w/ Giardia from his boy scouting days…

Aubergine

Sounds like it could be giardia infection. I have known people who got it, and it is nasty stuff. It can last for well over a month:

https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/giardia-infection/symptoms-causes/syc-20372786

I would try a course of ivermectin to see if that killed it first, before I went to a doc for help.

Valerie Curren

TY for the helpful info & the link! Blessings

RDS

Valerie Curren
Just catching up on the board, but Yours Truly concurs with the suspicion that it’s Giardia.
One is not a medical professional, but it seems that a course of IVM for your husband — and everyone else in the household — is a good idea.
And washing bedding, towels, dishes and cooking utensils, clothing (if possible) in hot water.

Valerie Curren

TY RDS! So far no one else in the household seems to be affected, thankfully!

kalbokalbs

Smart already folks chimed in.

Slow guys perspective.

  :wpds_arrow:  One word stands out, parasite. Solution, IvermectinSTAT.

Gail Combs

I am not sure Ivermectin will work. I know it does not work on coccidiosis in goats and sheep. It takes an antibiotic and even then you don’t get rid of it.

Coccidiosis is caused by microscopic protozoan parasites called coccidian (Eimeria spp.). It is the most common cause of diarrhea in young goats. It remains in the ground for up to 2 years and even chlorox will not kill it.

How do you get rid of beaver fever?

What is the treatment for giardiasis? Doctors commonly treat giardiasis by prescribing antibiotics such as metronidazole, tinidazole, or nitazoxanide. However, some individuals may recover on their own in a few weeks without medication.

Here are some related question people asked in various search engines.

How long does it take to get over beaver fever?

If water loss is severe, it can become serious, especially for infants. It is important to consume plenty of fluids, preferably water. Symptoms normally improve within 2–6 weeks, but this may take longer. Medications can help speed up recovery.

Can you get rid of Giardia without medication?

Many people with giardiasis have minor symptoms that go away on their own. You may not need treatment. If you have more severe parasite symptoms, your provider may prescribe an antibiotic with antiparasitic effect to kill the parasite.

Valerie Curren

Oh no! Did you take him to a vet & get meds?

Hope he’s OK now!

That’s pretty wild. How do you force feed a lizard? shove it it his mouth & hold it shut while rubbing the throat, like how we’ve done for dogs or some other way?

Valerie Curren

Wow. I clearly & erroneously thought it was in a pill form, oops.

I’m Quite Familiar with those blunt syringes being introduced to the need for them with Josiah as a 2 1/2 month old baby fresh out of the hospital after open heart & on Lasix, Aldactone, & some crazy antibiotic that glowed a fluorescent green. One of those doses was 0.2ml, 2 tics on the 1ml syringe.

Much later on when he was on Paxil he tolerated the liquid branded version & was getting 2-7mls, depending on the year w/ either a 5ml or a 10ml syringe. At least then we had a rubber “cork” for the bottle with a hole in the center so we could get that liquid out w/out too much of a mess!

When he was an infant it was so scary because it seemed like he needed meds with almost every feeding & even with those small volumes & trickling the liquid slowly in the corner of his mouth he usually ended up vomiting. Our dog would come running & lick up the formula & meds so probably had a strong heart (: I hope that made an upside down smiley 🙂

Rudy Giuliani DROPS A BOMB: I Have a Witness, Former Chief Accountant of Burisma Willing to Give Up All the Offshore Bank Accounts, INCLUDING THE BIDENS’ ACCOUNTS – HAS ACCESS TO A LOT MORE”
“Rudy, who warned the American public about the Biden Family’s international pay for play scandals years ago, told Rita Cosby that he has a witness who is the former chief accountant at Burisma who is willing to testify on the Biden crimes. She even has the Biden bank account transactions. She has the receipts!”

Rudy Giuliani: It’s extraordinary. I gave them one witness that any investigator would jump through hoops to go to. Gave them a witness who is a woman who was the chief accountant at this crooked company, Burisma. She was the wife of the former owner who died under suspicious circumstances. And, she was willing to give up all of the offshore bank accounts, including the Bidens’ accounts. She supervised the transfer of a lot more cash to the Bidens and other crooked politicians for Burisma.

Rita Cosby: Are you confident that now the House Committee is going to get to the bottom of that? Because that is stunning.

Rudy Giuliani: The reality is that we gave it to them in January of 2020, and the Pittsburgh US attorney was very interested. And then in a very strange move, Barr took it away from him, gave it to the US attorney in Delaware. He didn’t do a damn thing about it. And the woman was under threat of death. So we tried to put pressure on them to do something. Look, suppose she was lying. You would find out in a minute she wouldn’t have the accounts. She either has the goods or she doesn’t. And it’s absurd not to interview her. She claims she had bank accounts and that the Biden’s got a lot more money under the table than already. We had $8 million on the table that we could prove, which they could prove tomorrow if they wanted to they could have proved it three years ago, Rita. They could have indicted him before he ran for president and obviated this problem. We could have found out if he was innocent or guilty in January of 2020. All the witnesses were there, and I have him on tape like Schokin. Schokin was willing to come and testify.

Suppose Rudy had video of Brandon admitting they stole the election and exactly how they did it, and admitting that he sold national security secrets to the chyneese, and he admitted to child trafficking with his son, the bagman.

Better yet, suppose Brandon went on live TV, during a press conference, and just blurted out all of the above.

Exclusive: Marjorie Taylor Greene ‘Dumbfounded’ GOP Colleagues Will Not Call for Biden’s Impeachment 
https://12ft.io/proxy?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.breitbart.com%2Fpolitics%2F2023%2F06%2F10%2Fexclusive-marjorie-taylor-greene-dumbfounded-gop-colleagues-will-not-call-for-bidens-impeachment%2F

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Breitbart News she is “dumbfounded” by the refusal of her Republican House colleagues to call for the impeachment of President Joe Biden.

Following the pay-to-play allegation against Joe Biden for accepting $5 million after threatening to withhold aid to Ukraine until a prosecutor probing the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings was fired, Greene expressed bewilderment about the lack of interest in impeachment proceedings.

“To be honest with you? I don’t know,” Greene said when asked what it would take for House Republicans to call for Joe Biden’s impeachment.

“That’s the part that literally leaves me dumbfounded,” she said.

“I’ve already been texting a ton of my colleagues, ‘We have to impeach Biden, we have to impeach Biden,’” she said. “I literally introduced articles of impeachment on this very issue on January 20, 2021.”

…Greene, a member of the committee, told Breitbart News the FBI holds at least two more FD-1023 forms referenced by the FBI informant document reviewed by the committee Thursday. Greene expects the Committee will work to review those forms next week.

In connection with Biden’s Burisma business deal, Greene also told Breitbart News the House Oversight Committee issued two subpoenas Friday to compel information about the Bidens’ Ukrainian transactions. Before Friday, the Committee had already subpoenaed at least four banks — Bank of AmericaCathay Bank, JPMorgan Chase, and HSBC USA N.A. — and one individual.

Looks as if they need to hear from us. (And I know it usually feels as if that has no impact.)
