Aggie said...: Lucky for us, there's Anthropogenic Global Warming

'...It was the beginning of a new glacial period, more conversationally known as the next ice age—but by the 1960s, summer temperatures were already so high that the ice sheet started to shrink. In other words, global warming ended a period of glaciation that had already begun....'

'..."It was just getting started, everything was normal, the next glaciation was about to happen—and yet it stopped," says Nicolás Young, a geochemist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, part of the Columbia Climate School. "It's a very powerful example of how we have jolted the system."...'

'...Scientists can't say when the next glaciation might occur in a world with elevated greenhouse gas concentrations. But if continental ice sheets eventually begin growing again, they may have to do so without the last surviving remnant of the Laurentide.

"𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙗𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙖𝙣 𝙚𝙭𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙣𝙖𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙘𝙩𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙥𝙝𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙣 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙜𝙤𝙣𝙚," says Young ....' (Just ask Al Gore)

Yes, kids. We would have been able to make 𝙖𝙘𝙘𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙚 predictions, if we just didn't have that pesky global warming...; 10/24/26, 6:05 PM

Narr said...: VOCES8 always amazes me. I go often to their Locus Iste (Bruckner) and Lux Aeterna (Elgar) and now I'm hooked on
O Magnum Mysterium by Lauridsen.

Extraordinary.; 10/24/26, 8:22 PM
RCOCEAN II said...: The world series can go to 7 games, baby. Current results are not guarantees of future returns.; 10/24/26, 8:44 PM

Josephbleau said...: “ The tragic heroine in my story has a resemblance to tuskha maybe a little to sienna miller”

If I had a story my tragic heroine would have a resemblance to June Lockhart and have a tattooed daughter who’s antics prevent her from being on time to her job at the CIA causing her to be one step behind the terrorists.; 10/24/26, 9:01 PM
Eva Marie said...: Yes Narr, also thanks. Planing on watching Barcelona. One of my favorites is in it: Scarlett Johansson. Would it be wrong to light a fire in the fireplace?; 10/24/26, 9:10 PM

Aggie said...: Saw the Joffrey ballet last night with friends. Amazing choreography, more than 40 dancers on stage, all moving in perfect sync to live music. What an achievement, technically complex and very difficult to both direct and dance. Great show.; 10/24/26, 9:51 PM
Aggie said...: Driving around town today, went past two polling places. Full parking lots, not quite to capacity. But busy.

Don't forget to vote folks.; 10/24/26, 9:52 PM

@KatieDaviscourt
Breaking — Ballot Drop Boxes set on fire in Portland, Oregon and Vancouver, Washington

Police said explosive devices were placed inside the boxes early Monday morning.

Hundreds of ballots have been burned "

So- still think early voting is a good idea? How do you determine of your ballot was one of those destroyed? Does everyone who CLAIMS to have dropped a ballot in the box get to do it again?

Election day- one day, with absentee for military and narrowly defined valid reasons. It's secure, and worked for over 100 years. Heck, didn't have absentee voting in 1864- the Feds sent troops home to vote, and counted on them to return to their units.; 10/24/26, 9:59 PM
RCOCEAN II said...: Shorter Begley: The only good Palestinian is a dead Palestinian. Eh Dave? I don't think your dislike of "mooslims" is due to Indonesia.

Well, good thing Isreal isn't surrounded by Muslims. If it was surrounded by Christians, I wonder what Dave would say?; 10/24/26, 10:00 PM

Three outs to go.; 10/24/26, 10:19 PM
Aggie said...: @Dave Begley said...

Don't care what sharia law has to say about most anything, TBH. Islam is making inroads everywhere in America, including Texas.

In my view, it is wrong to treat it simply as a religion, until it begins to conform to our definitions as one. And any organization masquerading as a religion to pursue a stated program of social change should be stripped of its 501(c)(3) status and not get it back.; 10/24/26, 10:34 PM
Narr said...: Love to share my finds, and enjoy others'. I agree with Nietzsche that without music life would make no sense.; 10/24/26, 10:38 PM
Aggie said...: '...Police said explosive devices were placed inside the boxes early Monday morning.

Maybe they mistook the ballot box for a police precinct, or an ICE detention facility.; 10/24/26, 10:39 PM

Canadian Bumblepuppy said...: In British Columbia the local elections are concluded with the Conservatives getting a victory for the first time in years- imagine Washington state or Oregon electing a Republican for context.

A welcome relief maybe we get a break from years of crazy.

Also go Brewers!; 10/25/26, 5:33 AM
Dave Begley said...: Small Beer thoughts.

1. Mom took a three-year-old Bud to watch the minor league Brewers. That’s why Milwaukee has the MLB Brewers today. A woman instilled the love of baseball in her son.

2. Bud tried to buy the White Sox to move them, but MLB wouldn’t allow it.

3. The Brewers used the “Moneyball” technique of fouling off pitches to drive up pitch count and run off the Rays’ stud starter.

4. Guy hits four home runs all year but homered last night. He really swung from his heels.

5. The owner of the Brewers graduated from Columbia Law the same year I graduated from Creighton Law. I should have gone to Columbia!; 10/25/26, 5:42 AM

You have to understand why it is there in the first place.

The founders did not want the government taxing the church.

The problem is that this works for Christians. Secularists and other religions do not have an objective moral framework so they will abuse the system by their nature. It works with Christians because bad actors are shamed.

What we really need to do is become a Christian Nation again. We will not have a free high trust society otherwise.; 10/25/26, 6:34 AM

They have real polls. They know how close they are to another revolution.

The riots are to keep people in line not to destroy the place.

People think mass deportations are the extreme measure.

Mass deportations are not the extreme measure. I am curious if Chatham house/WEF want the extreme measures taken and are actually pushing for that.

And I wonder if the rulers of the ME would actually object to the extreme measures. My intuition is no.; 10/25/26, 6:41 AM
