We’re expecting a storm tonight into tomorrow. It was 24F either this morning or yesterday morning. My days have been so full and nonstop I’ve lost the track of them!! Lovely photos- and a path to follow:0)
The 30-day SOI is now at its highest since early year. La Niña is strengthening and will affect summer weather in the Northern Hemisphere.
April’s winter of the century in the northern United States. Snowstorms in the states of Oregon and Washington. Snow drifts of several meter in North Dakota (there will be more snow). Snowstorms in the Great Lakes region and northeastern US. Strong winds and very low perceptible temperatures (freezing) in the Great Plains.
I've been looking at those $25,000 houses in Iowa online today. The nicer ones seem to be more like $50 - $75k, but some pretty nice houses for the price. My 120 year old cottage in northern AZ costs about 10x as much as for a similar house in IA. And this is not a particularly posh town I am in. I could retire to Iowa, rent my houses here in AZ on Airbnb and have enough free cash to travel during the 6 months of cold Midwest winter.
The Ukraine war is deadly serious but it has moments that are just plain comical. For example, the FBI has arranged matters so that in and near the Russian embassy Facebook, Twitter and Google feature ads suggesting that Embassy employees contact the FBI with info they might have. You know, it's like the way in which Facebook, Twitter and Google target us with relevant ads after a visit to the grocery store. The FBI Russian embassy ad includes a clip from a large meeting in which Putin urges his Foreign Intelligence chief to "speak plainly." The hapless guy then says he supports the meeting's initiative to include the DNR and the LNR (the Ukrainian breakaway regions) in the Russian Federation. Putin gives a sinister chuckle and says "but we are proposing to acknowledge DNR and LNR as independent republics." Russia's Foreign Intelligence chief then says: "Yes, I support acknowledging their independence." The FBI ad, playing off this, says, more or less, "Come in and talk to us. Speak plainly. We'll listen, unlike Putin." It's like an SNL script but it seems to be real.

That's just... astonishing. I watch television, so you know I'm pretty well informed. In the rest of the USA (not Iowa), only about 20% of Americans are white. Roughly 90% of families are mixed-race. Is Iowa caught in some kind of weird 1940s time-warp? Is there a wall that keeps minorities out?
Neonrevolt posted this on Gab about the vaccine and cancer. I’ve seen some stuff online before about the spike protein, damage it does, and how it might possibly cause cancer rates to go up.
Recently, as in 2 weeks ago, a family member was diagnosed with lung cancer, already metastasized and spread throughout the body. Admitted to hospice with a few weeks to a few months left as the diagnosis. Turned out to be a few days. Unlike the evil unvaccinated me he was a good liberal with his double jab followed by booster. The cancer had rather obviously started at the beginning of the covidiocy, and spread unchecked without being discovered during a routine in person medical appointment where a doctor puts a stethoscope on you and listens to your lungs, because the VA didn’t have in person appointments the last 2 years or so. (My first with them since the covidiocy started is next week- but I have other medical coverage. He didn’t.) But having read what Neonrevolt has to say, maybe it was actually caught early on, but thanks to vaccine damage to the immune system early on is no longer good enough for cancer treatment. Either case I blame the medical establishment for his early demise. He was a few months younger than me.
Walter Chestnut, posting as Parsiifaler on Twitter, has now been banned for violating their terms of service. Somewhere in those terms must be a statement “Thou shalt not talk bad about the blessed and holy vaccine!” He’s now posting on substack. Alex Berenson was long ago banned from Twitter for questioning covid policies in general, including criticism of the holy vaccine. And is now found on substack.
Liberals bemoan the fact that non-liberals are getting information and news from other sources they don’t look at nor ever see references to. It’s because they drive us off the largest platforms to protect free speech- and don’t see any contradiction in what I just wrote.
Depending on vaccine skeptic source, if you’ve been fully vaccinated you’re going to die somewhere between 5 years from now, or 5 years earlier than you might have otherwise. From what I can determine from reliable statistics already out there, 5 years earlier than otherwise is going to be the best case scenario for the vaxxed and boosted. The more shots you’ve had the earlier your demise.
On the cancer inducing theory- we should have a pretty good idea by the end of this year by looking at the numbers. Not too far into the future.
What Elon Musk should do is announce that he intends to bring the "rule of law" to twitter. He should announce the rules he plans to enforce and pledge to see that they are enforced equally without regard to political, gender, or victimhood status.
I don't know how close this video of Will Smith and Dave Chappelle is to the Oscar slap night. The reason I'm linking to it is because it reveals something about the Smith's household that could shed light into what transpired on Oscar slap night.
I've been looking at those $25,000 houses in Iowa online today.
The $25k houses would be better than that apartment in Portugal that water poured into the rooms when it rained. They would be old story and half 3 BR and one bath.
That $75K will get you nice 1000ft 1.5 bath 3br that needs work
I was just using it as an example of living on the cheap....IF that is your ONLY goal.
We attended yesterday's Mariner's game in T-Mobile Park. The Sun was out and it was a beautiful 55-deg in the sun. Our seats, however, are in the shade, so we never get sunburned. But, the stadium is still cold-soaked from the winter temperatures, and sitting in the shade was cold, cold, and cold. We were wrapped up in layer upon layer of winter clothing with a blanket to keep our legs warm. The stadium won't warm up to comfortable temperatures until July.
The M's won, 7-2 with four double plays. One of them was a strike-em-out/throw-em-out double play. The throw was perfect, just to the first-base side of second, directly into the second-baseman's glove.
Old and slow said... I've been looking at those $25,000 houses in Iowa online today. The nicer ones seem to be more like $50 - $75k, but some pretty nice houses for the price.
yeah, in Iowa (like everywhere) prices have skyrocketed. $50k seems to be about the bottom now. (My 2 bedroom house that i'm typing in now was about $26k four years ago, and in my town; looks like $100k for a very nice remodeled 3br)
'Our seats, however, are in the shade, so we never get sunburned. But, the stadium is still cold-soaked from the winter temperatures, and sitting in the shade was cold, cold, and cold.'
Back in prehistoric times I saw the Giants v Reds in a night game at Candlestick park, before they closed in the outfield...it was just a chainlink fence and the bay beyond.
Multiple layers and sleeping bags were mandatory gear.
On the plus side, I've seen Willie Mays play baseball : )
Taibbi on the Musk buying Twitter media panic : “I’m guessing the reaction to this latest news is arousing special horror because the current version of Twitter is the professional journalist’s idea of Utopia: a place where Donald Trump doesn’t exist…”
Ya know.......I'm pretty much convinced that we can't get enough global warming in the spring time, and then by fall global cooling is the next catastrophe.
Sky News has a picture and video of the damaged Moskva that was hit by the Neptune anti-ship missiles but sunk while being towed. The lifeboats were missing as was the helicopter.
I really don't trust these reports. ARM, Gadfly, whoever, this is a civil war. There is no telling who owns these reports.
I bought a house once for 19k. In southeast Atlanta, in a place they used to call Germantown, because that's where the internment camps for the German women and children lived behind barbed wire while the men were housed in the federal prison up the road, the same one where the Mariel Cuban riots happened decades later.
What, you didn't know we interred German Americans in near-starvation camps too and took their property?
In the 80's, Mayor Maynard "every time a black male child is murdered, I rake in contributions" Jackson buried the history of the place by renaming it Boulevard Heights.
Everything in politics is a reality show. First you're in, then you're out. No wonder the craven are so good at to it.
Joe Smith - I also had the joy of watching Mays in his prime, while freezing at "The Stick." (That park almost certainly robbed him of the home run record.)
When, oh when, is our Baghdad Bob of a national media going to recognize the mental deficiencies of the current occupant of 1600 PA Avenue? Look at his face when the aforementioned Easter Bunny leads him away. The man is in Oz.
All have seen this, I presume, so there no need to describe it in detail. On 14 April, Resident Biden made an address at North Carolina A&T University. Aster his concluding remarks, he presented his open hand in a way familiar to the American tradition of the hardy handshake, an unmistakable put her there, pal directed at thin air. However, Snopes.com tells the wayward village idiots that the Mighty and Supremely Wise was "gesturing to the crowd on his right" without explaining what meaning that gesture conveyed. Perhaps Howard can enlighten me.
" ... the special counsel revealed how, as part of this hoax, Trump’s enemies surveilled the internet traffic at Trump Tower, his New York City apartment building, a Michigan business, and later the Executive Office of the President of the United States (EOP) ...
"Two exhibits filed by the special counsel revealed that the mining of the EOP data, as well as of the internet traffic at Trump Tower, Trump’s New York City apartment building, and a Michigan business, were targeted to Trump’s physical presence at those locations. This raises the further question of whether the cybersecurity experts were using geolocation technology to surveil Trump’s movements."
Those of us who don't read history are condemned to believe war propaganda.
How is this war different, in terms of American interests, than having been drawn into another famous proxy war with Russia, Viet Nam? How did we 'lose' in Viet Nam? Our pro-war propaganda sucked. Same with our losses in Iraq, which has fallen to Iran, and Afghanistan. It's not a mistake that our leaders in Davos intend to repeat.
Anyway, I have started on my garden, planted peas and radishes, having returned to the frozen north, and having watched spring enfold on my drive north, from early summer in Florida, to very early spring in Vermont. But since it snowed last night, and is still snowing even now, I guess I will have to settle for garden planning today and a little reading by the fire, oh yeah, and a little firewood replenishment for exercise. As Thoreau said, firewood heats you twice, once in the chopping, and once in the burning.
"Good heavens. I forgot the northern parts of the country still have snow. In AZ we were in the 90s today."
Ask yourself, would you rather have temperatures in the 90s or the 30s? I'd rather have the 30s. We only have a handful of days in the entire year when it might go above 90 and then only for part of the day. I think the highest I've ever seen it on a sunrise run is low 80s. And that's really too hot for running.
What do you have more than half of the year with temperatures in the 90s? I don't get the attraction at all.
Hard to believe a Federal judge ended the mask mandate, uniting The Law and the COVID in the news and no commentary from Althouse. I was sure that composition would tickle her muse.
We had a couple inches of heavy wet snow last night. It wasn't super cold, but it looked like January out the window--trees all white, people cleaning the snow off their cars. It was mostly gone by morning and since cold rain is the norm this time of year, it's not so much worse than what we'd be getting anyway. The weekend looks good. Maybe open windows Sunday.
On the plus side, I've seen Willie Mays play baseball : )
I grew up as a Dodger fan during the Willie Mays era. SF was our rival, the games were great, as was Willie, Juan Marichal, Don Drysdale, Ron Fairly (future Mariner broadcaster) and Willie Davis, to name just a few.
My father took me to a few games a year. He used company box seats on the 100-level. We went back to Dodger Stadium a few years ago, and the box seats had been eliminated in favor of general seating. There was no need to worry about the stadium being cold.
I live in AZ and agree with Ms. Althouse about temperatures. The arid desert is no fit place for a human being. I dread the summers. Then again, complaining about the weather seems to be a universal human activity.

But that disregards mosquitos the size of B-52s owning the airspace over Wisconsin in the summertime!
RE temperature - 90s in Arizona is not the same as 90s in the Midwest. It's quite pleasant when the humidity is 4%. We sit on the patio and enjoy the wonderful weather.

Ad on Tucker Carlson right now for the State of Iowa...you know the kind.
It prominently features blacks and minorities (along with some white folks for good measure).
Iowa is 90% white and just 4% black.
And you know the people watching the ad were probably thinking...'...black folks???'
But you know sure as hell they didn't say anything : )
Gotta keep those cushy Iowa Chamber of Commerce jobs, or whoever it is that puts out this kind of fluff.
You can't make it up...
