Yo, Brian Stelter!
When I was a kid, I got nicknamed “Bald Eagle” because I actually was getting notably thin “up there.” Of course today “Bald Eagle” might be a cool nickname, but in junior high school, it definitely was not a cool thing.
Fast forward to today, and now here I am over twenty years older than you are, and even in spite of that poor start, I have better hair than you do.
And I am not a piss-guzzling, shit-gobbling communist “journalist” (what a sick joke) either.
On both accounts you must absolutely hate looking into the mirror.
And Oh By The Way probably more people read my posts than watch you bloviate on air. And yes, I know your ratings dropped again. One would think there’s be a limit to that…you can’t drop below zero, can you?
RINOs an Endangered Species?
If Only!
According to Wikipoo, et. al., the Northern White Rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum cottoni) is a critically endangered species. Apparently two females live on a wildlife preserve in Sudan, and no males are known to be alive. So basically, this species is dead as soon as the females die of old age. Presently they are watched over by armed guards 24/7.
Biologists have been trying to cross them with the other subspecies, Southern White Rhinoceroses (Rhinoceri?) without success; and some genetic analyses suggest that perhaps they aren’t two subspecies at all, but two distinct species, which would make the whole project a lot more difficult.
I should hope if the American RINO (Parasitus rectum pseudoconservativum) is ever this endangered, there will be heroic efforts not to save the species, but rather to push the remainder off a cliff. Onto punji sticks. With feces smeared on them. Failing that a good bath in red fuming nitric acid will do.
But I’m not done ranting about RINOs.
The RINOs (if they are capable of any introspection whatsoever) probably wonder why they constantly have to deal with “populist” eruptions like the Trump-led MAGA movement. That would be because the so-called populists stand for absolutely nothing except for going along to get along. That allows the Left to drive the culture and politics.
Given the results of Tuesday’s elections, the Left will now push harder, and the RINOs will now turn even squishier than they were before.
I well remember 1989-1990 in my state when the RINO establishment started preaching the message that a conservative simply couldn’t win in Colorado. Never mind the fact that Reagan had won the state TWICE (in 1984 bringing in a veto-proof state house and senate with him) and GHWB had won after (falsely!) assuring everyone that a vote for him was a vote for Reagan’s third term.
This is how the RINOs function. They push, push, push the line that only a “moderate” can get elected. Stomp them when they pull that shit. Tell everyone in ear shot that that’s exactly what the Left wants you to think, and oh-by-the-way-Mister-RINO if you’re in this party selling the same message as the Left…well, whythefuckexactly are you in this party, you lying piece of rancid weasel shit?
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. (This doesn’t necessarily include deposing Joe and Hoe and putting Trump where he belongs, but it would certainly be a lot easier to fix our broken electoral system with the right people in charge.)
Nothing else matters at this point. Talking about trying again in 2022 or 2024 is pointless 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 in the system is not part of the plan, you have no plan.
This will necessarily be piecemeal, state by state, which is why I am encouraged by those states working to change their laws to alleviate the fraud both via computer and via bogus voters. If enough states do that we might end up with a working majority in Congress and that would be something Trump never really had.

Mozart
Mozart wrote two distinct pieces called “Symphonia Concertante), both in E flat major.
The more famous of the two (at least, judging from youtube hits) is K 364. Three movements, Allegro Maestso to start, 2nd movement (Andante) at 13:06, 3rd movement (Presto) at 23:47.
But I think I like this one better, to be honest. KV 297b, also in three movements: Allegro at the start, Adagio at 13:53 and Andantino con Variazione at 22:37. This one has considerably more in the way of woodwinds to add color.

PGMs going down and the “traditional” precious metals going up indicates to me that we are expecting inflation and a recession. Or it will tell me that if the pattern holds for more than a few weeks (so far, one week and counting). Why? Because the platinum group metals are valuable primarily for their industrial uses, so they will tend to go down if industry expects to be in trouble, while gold and silver tend to be places people go when they’re worried–perhaps because industry is expected to be in trouble. Or perhaps because they think the dollar will suddenly approach its intrinsic value.
On the other hand, inflation tends to show up as rising stock and gold prices. A company’s nominal value goes up due to inflation, just like gold’s value will.
This market bears watching in light of recent world events, and recent couldn’t-be-worse-if-they-tried-which-makes-sense-because-they’re-probably-trying economic policies.
James Webb Space Telescope Update
Multi-instrument alignment continues. There are no less than five instruments inside the telescope, behind the mirror, and the mirrors have to be able to focus light accurately on all five instruments’ sensors.
One of the instruments is MIRI (Mid InfraRed Instrument) and it requires temperatures even colder than the telescope is getting just from being shielded from the sun. This is because it’s sensitive to longer wavelengths of infrared, wavelengths given off as black body radiation from even things quite a bit colder than the other instruments. It actually gets cryogenically cooled even more with liquid helium. But right now it is actually the warmest instrument of the five, at 94 K (-291 F). It needs to get down to 7 K (-447 F), which is still about 18 degrees K warmer than Hitlary Clinton’s personality.
T1: Heat
Finally, I have found some time to work on a “science” post. I’m going to cover a topic I skipped over the first time around through the physics series, because initially my main goal was eventually to talk about neutrinos. And every once in a while I regretted it. So if there’s a logical place for this in the old sequence, it’s somewhere in between a pair of the single-digit posts. But there’s more than one part to this, so I wouldn’t go renumbering things just yet! For now I’m going to treat these as a separate series, with numbers T1, T2 and so on. (T for “Thermal.”)
The issue of heat is important in physics, and chemistry, and biology. I’ve talked about “black body radiation” being dependent on temperature before.
(To refresh memories: The hotter something is the brighter it glows, and the higher the wavelengths it glows at; if if gets hot enough it glows in visible light, if it gets even hotter, it glows in ultraviolet light or (really, really hot) x rays or even gamma rays. Many stars visible in the night sky glow in primarily blue wavelengths, these are basically the hottest objects we have everyday (well, everynight) experience with, at 10,000 K or even higher. Fortunately they’re quite far away so they don’t barbecue us.)
But I never really talked that much about heat as such, just this one side effect that’s very important to astronomy since it can tell us a lot about a star.
If you remember all the way back to Newtonian dynamics (parts 1, 2, 3, and 5), it describes a view of the way the world works which at first seems totally at odds with the way things actually work.
Newton’s first law of motion is: A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, unless acted upon by a force.
But we see moving objects come to a halt all the time with no obvious “push” being given to them.
Even billiard balls stop eventually, and those are the inevitable example given for working with momentum. Or air hockey pucks. Or cars on ice. (I have occasionally found myself in a pickup game of two-ton-puck road hockey. Not fun. The only way to win is not to play at all.)
Outer space is actually the only place this seems to be true; objects in orbit will stay that way forever, at least when you can ignore third-body influences. (Which, even when dealing with the planets of our solar system orbiting the sun, you really can’t, not in the long term.)
This is probably why it took us so long to get to the point where Newton could do his thing. For one thing we had to figure out how, in fact, the planets moved, so that Newton could explain that with universal gravitation (thank you Johannes Kepler for the setup). And Galileo had to do all of his experiments with kinetics. Before this the theory was objects would be given an initial impeteus, which would then bleed away. Then, they might want to return “home.” Smoke’s home was Up There; a cannonball’s home was Down Here (and most things were like that). Fire a cannonball, and you give it an impetus. It travels in a straight line as the impetus bleeds away, finally halts, then drops straight down. That was the theory anyway. (Actual artillerymen knew this was bullshit, though, even before Galileo showed that cannonballs moved in parabolas. And then Newton showed that no, they were really moving suborbitally, in very small sections of a very eccentric ellipse–effectively indistinguishable at the ranges cannonballs could be fired in the 1600s. By the way, high school and college freshman physics teaches the parabola, not the ellipse.)
But in fact Newtonian dynamics works very well. The problem is, in order to teach it effectively, you have to pretend, at first, that friction doesn’t exist, because friction, though covered quite well in Newtonian dynamics, makes the story problems more complicated. Only after you master frictionless behavior do they throw friction at you and expect you to account for it as well.
Friction is a force from the air, or the ground, or something touching the object in question, and is both proportional to the speed of the object, and opposite in direction.
OK, I’d better unpack that with an example. Imagine you’re pushing a heavy box across the floor. And you’re able to shove the sucker at 1 MPH. It requires a certain continuous force to keep the box moving at a mile per hour. It would require twice as much force to move it at two miles per hour, half as much to move it at half a mile per hour. Since the box is not speeding up, the net force on it must be zero (by Newton’s second law of motion, good old F = ma). But you’re applying a force. But it’s countered–precisely–by the friction between the box and the floor, which is in the exact opposite direction. Now if you double how hard you’re pushing on the box, it speeds up, but eventually settles in on moving twice as fast as it was before, without moving, so your push and the friction are again in balance. So the force from friction is proportional to how fast the box is moving. Hopefully you can go back and reread the previous paragraph and it will make more sense to you.
OK, so Newtonian dynamics can, with added difficulty, account for friction. It’s a variable force working “against” us pushing that box across the floor. (And to save effort, we get a dolly, which reduces the friction. Our salvador is dolly.)
But we’re not done yet. Remember how momentum is supposed to be conserved? When the box quits moving because we stopped pushing, where does that momentum go? Well, let’s suppose we are pushing the box eastward, so our applied force is eastward. The force of friction on the box is westward, then. But that force of friction must also be acting on the floor, which is attached (ultimately) to the Earth, and the friction force acting on the floor must be pointed eastward (because of Newton’s third law, the one about every action bringing about an equal but opposite reaction). So the earth is getting pushed on by the friction. But it’s roughly a godzillion times more massive so you can’t see the effect. The effect (as invisible as it is) disappears when the box stops moving, because at that point the friction force on the box, and therefore on the floor-attached-to-the-earth, is zero.
And one more thing…the one that’s actually where I’m going with this (took my sweet time about it, didn’t I?). Isn’t energy conserved?
The box, while moving, has kinetic energy. Then it stops. This doesn’t seem like much of a problem, though, does it? After all we routinely swap kinetic and potential energy, pretty much any time gravitation comes into play, and orbiting bodies do this all the time unless they’re in perfectly circular orbits.
Indeed. We are free to swap potential for kinetic energy. But we are pushing the box across a level floor and it still comes to a stop when we quit pushing! The very definition of “level” is a surface where the potential energy is the same no matter where you are standing on it* so the kinetic energy cannot be getting turned into potential energy.
(*[skip this if you don’t want your mind blown] Incidentally, you can get some very weird shapes that are “level.” A non-rotating planet would have a spherical surface, all at the same potential but level, a rotating planet will have that surface be an oblate spheroid (i.e., one a bit squashed looking), with the equator being the maximum bulge, but then you have the moon and sun pulling on the earth which raises tides and makes the “level” surface a bit more complicated (and ever-changing). That level surface nevertheless looks flat to us, because it’s so doggone big.
You could conceivably have a double planet orbiting so closely that the two planets would each form a teardrop shape, with the points of the teardrops each pointing at the opposing planet. If they were close enough together they might even touch. And that would be “level” ground to the people on those planets, though the force of gravity would be zero where the teardrops touch.)
If energy is conserved, and at everyday scales it most certainly is, the kinetic energy of the box must be going somewhere, and it is: it becomes heat energy.
Not only that, but since you were pushing the box against an opposing force (before you quit and let it stop) across some distance, you were doing work, and that too is a form of energy, and it too all became heat energy.
I’m not quite sure when heat was recognized as a form of energy, as opposed to the older theory that it was a fluid named calor that flowed from one object to another (sort of a reverse-phlogiston; or rather phlogistion was a reverse of calor). Antoine Lavoisier, who late in the 1700s dismantled phlogiston theory and came up with a largely correct but incomplete list of elements, actually considered calor (as well as light) an element.
Chemists were able to determine that different substances required different amounts of heat energy to change their temperatures. The amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of one gram of water one degree Celsius (or one Kelvin) was defined as the calorie (note a small c). A thousand calories was a kilocalorie, enough energy to raise the temperature of a kilogram of water one degree C or one K. But sometimes a kilocalorie is written as “Calorie” with a capital C. (It is this Calorie-with-a-big-C that you contend with when you are dieting.)
A substance like iron, on the other hand, could heat up a degree per gram with a lot less energy than a calorie. In fact, it only takes 0.107 calories to do this.
How do you determine this? In principle, you can drop a one gram lump of iron at, say, 20C into a gram of water at 21C, then wait for the heat to transfer. Once everything is at a uniform temperature, you can measure the temperature, and notice that the water barely cooled down at all, but the iron nearly reached 21C. So the water dropped a little bit in temperature but the iron heated up quite a bit. If the energy is constant, the iron heated up a lot more (with the same amount of energy) than the water cooled off (by giving up that energy); thus iron takes less energy to heat up than water. Obviously, you can alter the mass of the water or the iron, or the temperature difference, and things change in proportion; you can do the math and figure that iron’s heat capacity is 0.107 calories per gram, per degree K, if water’s is 1 calorie per gram, per degree K (which it is, by definition).
Water’s heat capacity happens to be one of the highest. Iron’s is more typical.
It turns out that experiment is difficult to run precisely because, of course, the heat leaks out of the container of water while you’re trying to do it. Still, you can try to control this by putting the water in a thermos…a very good thermos, or something better than that. (These sorts of painstaking efforts to eliminate outside effects are why science is harder to do than it is to write about…or read about, no matter how badly I write these posts.)
On to James Prescott Joule, 1818-1889, who came up with the first definitive way to relate heat energy to mechanical energy. Calories were convenient for chemists working with water and other substances, but just how big is a calorie compared to other forms of energy?
In the metric system, we’ve built up our units of force, and so on, from meters, kilograms and seconds (MKS, also known as the international system or SI (its French initials)); there’s also an older system that worked off centimeters, grams, and seconds (CGS). Thus the Newton, the unit of force, is one kilogram-meter-per-second-squared (kg•m/s2 or, preferred by pedants, kg•m•s-2). Work is a force applied by a distance, so the natural units for this ought to be Newtons times meters, N•m, or substituting in, kg•m2•s-2. And indeed that’s what energy’s metric unit is. (It even has a convenient name, but I’ll hold off on telling you what it is for now.)
So can we somehow equate the calorie with this natural metric unit of energy? How many metric units of energy does it take to make up a calorie?
Joule was able to do a known amount of mechanical work on water and measure its temperature change, thus he could determine how much mechanical work it would take to raise the temperature of a gram of water one degree C, and so he knew how many natural metric units were equivalent to a calorie. In fact, he ran multiple different experiments, including some using electricity to heat the water, and (the most direct), the weight of an object hung from a pulley to turn blades in the water to stir it and thereby heat it up. He always got close to the same answer, working in English units (foot pounds of energy).
Over the years we’ve refined his work and have a very precise answer (and we express it in metric.) And the answer is: 4.184 natural metric units equals one (small c) calorie.
And because of Joule’s work on this and related topics, we gave that natural metric unit of energy the name joule, symbol J.
We have also named the metric unit of power, which is to say, the rate at which energy is delivered, the watt, yes the same “watt” you see on light bulbs and microwave ovens. (It’s a metric unit as are volts and amperes and ohms…which, if you’re anti-metric, ought to chap your hindquarters.) One watt is one joule per second, or one joule is the energy delivered by one watt, for one second. A kilowatt-hour (which you might be more familiar with since electric companies like to use them to bill you) is one kilowatt (a thousand watts), delivered for an hour, which is 3600 seconds, so a kilowatt-hour is 1000 x 3600 = 3,600,000 watt-seconds or joules. (Of course, it could also be 500 watts, delivered for two hours…or 2000 watts delivered for half an hour…anything that will multiply out to 3,600,000 watt-seconds.)
Returning to heat, 4.184 joules equals one calorie, but this isn’t the usual number you’ll see. Remember, a calorie is the amount of heat necessary to raise the temperature of one gram of liquid water 1 kelvin (or one degree C), but today, almost everyone works in MKS (meters, kilograms, seconds, newtons, joules, watts), not CGS (centimeters, grams, seconds, dynes, ergs…), so kilograms of water are preferred over grams and you’ll generally see that 4,184 joules equals one kilocalorie (abbreviated kcal preferentially, because “big C” versus “little C” gets confusing especially when talking). Or better yet, 4.184 kJ (kilojoules) = 1 kilocalorie.
(But note, the kilocalorie is still just called a “calorie” when we’re talking about food; the author of your book on the new fad kumquat diet may bother to capitalize it…and may not.)
Chemists still use kcals and calories, because it’s convenient for them, but offically, they are neither base units (kilograms, meters, seconds, kelvins, amperes), derived units (newtons, watts, joules, coulombs), nor even the list of non-SI units mentioned in the SI (like the astronomical unit, electron volt, or minute (of time or arc, take your pick).
I’ve talked a lot about temperature, as if we knew what it means. And everyone thinks we do because we measure it all the time, for weather and cooking and refrigeration. But our everyday understanding is very incomplete. (It’s certainly not the same thing as “heat” because different amounts of heat energy change temperatures by different amounts depending on the materials being heated.)
Physicists, of course, looked into this as well and gained a deeper understanding. And with that cliffhanger, I’ll stop here. Next time we move onwards.

I never recieived the $600 stimulus check, despite two attempts of mailing to the IRS the proper form. Never heard back from them. I think that a fair number of people never received one or more of the checks.
I’m guessing that some of the funds got diverted to a slush fund to support some nefarious cause. I’m also wondering if a list was consulted to determine who not to send a stimulus check to.

Did anyone else see that headline about the teenager who fell off of an amusement park ride? This is one of those stories where there’s so much weird stuff going on that it’s starting to feel staged. Just look at the picture they’re running with this story, for example: “Flyers.”
Here’s the video. WARNING: It depicts someone falling to their death and has a horrible sound when the body hits the ground.
https://youtu.be/lovvYNpmc5A
Stuff I find weird about this video:
In short, I suspect that this was whole thing was staged. Motive: A ritual or symbolic message, possibly from “our” side.
I’m reminded of this video from Q:
After seeing your description of it, I didn’t watch it.
When you say you think it was staged, do you mean it wasn’t real? Surely someone would have seen it besides the camera operator — meaning, if it wasn’t real, that people who were there could say it didn’t actually happen. And if it was real, then people who witnessed it could speak about it.
If you think “our” side could have been sending a message, do you think it was a warning to someone? Because it is not something to take lightly.
Staged and real is my thinking. Getting the kid to not buckle his harness can happen in multiple ways. Huge payoff for the arranging parties. MK + event = $$$$$.
Yup. DM headline.
‘If I don’t make it down tell my mom and dad I love them’: Boy, 14, who fell to his death from 430-foot Orlando drop tower told friends he was worried about safety harness during the ride,” says his father.

NASA ==> NAZI maybe? Following Sady’s symbolism
Some of those rides are very small in the seat/buckle area. Some years ago we went to the boardwalk, my bf who at the time wasn’t particularly heavy..but tall .the ride attendant made him get off.
That kid looks big.
My Pickup truck has seatbelts that are too small!
I shrank to not much above 5 feet so I have to have the seat all the way forward. I am ‘generous’ around the hips (THANXs Menopause😫) so I find the seatbelt will not reach unless the shoulder strap is not in use. That strap goes over my face or under the throat to give me a throat hold and not a shoulder hold. 🙄 So I would not use it anyway per the information from the state police safety officer I asked about it. That position will break the neck or crush the windpipe.
In my minivan, the shoulder strap would hit me in the neck and was irritating/uncomfortable, so I made a loop of two sided velcro wrap to go over the two layers of the lap and shoulder strap just to the left of the buckle – and helps it to pass over my shoulder at a comfortable place.
You need one of these, Gail:

(But buy it from someone besides Amazon).
THANKS!!!
I tuck the shoulder thing under an arm. A girl in the studio where I studied voice was in a car accident and the cross body restraint hit her in the larynx and fractured it. She was on voice rest for six months. For me, this is a professional decision.
Yup. I’ll bet the buckle was twisting, pressing and popping open between those fat thighs.
I’m shocked you would say ‘fat thighs’ with all the female commenters hereabouts. That is a triggering phrase and who knows how many will end up at NPR because of it?
😂
Reality is what Reality is!
To tell you the truth I rather have FAT THIGHS than a donelap over the belt. At least they are a LOT healthier for you than fat messing up your organs.
The fall happens around 3:43 in the video. It is safe to watch up until that point.
Yes, I believe it was staged, that nobody died, and that it was probably a medical dummy that tumbled out of the ride. And I think I may have found the smoking gun. The alleged incident happened “around 11 pm” on Thursday, March 24th. Look at the operating hours of the Park:
Monday-Thursday: 12pm until 10pm
https://iconparkorlando.com/about/directions-hours/
Archive: https://archive.ph/FczA6
THE PARK SHOULD HAVE BEEN CLOSED WHEN THIS FALL HAPPENED.
My guess: The whole thing was staged and filmed after the park was closed to the public and the normal park staff went home. Everyone still present in the park at the time this was filmed, i.e. the people on the ride to the bystanders on the ground to anyone doing the behind-the-scenes logistics, are in on the hoax. The “victim” is really an actor. They filmed the actor on the ground before the ride starts, then replaced him with a medical dummy (replacement process edited out of the video) before sending the ride up the tower. Dummy is somehow wired to fall forward out of the seat at a certain point in the tower fall, and that is what it is depicted in the video. Again, the video doesn’t actually show the body hitting the ground. All we see is a blob falling out of the seat, then later the victim face-down on the ground. I’m not convinced a real live human fell out of that seat.
This makes sense to me and would actually be the one of the better possible explanations.
Then more I look at it, the more it looks fake. No blood. No visible injuries. Limbs intact—do not look broken or at weird angles. If you happened to wander by without knowing the context, it would look like someone had fainted or had a heart attack.
Wonder if he committed suicide? He seemed to know something did not put his safety belt on. I am surprised they would allow him on a ride without the belt secure?
I personally dislike amusement park dislike the rides. I really do not know what the fun is even though we took our kids and I did not ride on any of them. The food is terrible also in those places my kids liked it. I never said anything not to spoil their fun.
I believe you are correct. And I watched it. Yuck. But yeah, the instinct of the camera operator would have been to turn with the camera as the body came down, and he didn’t. Cinched it for me.
I cannot watch stuff like that it tears me up even if i think it is fake.
It was pretty awful. I wanted to see if I thought it was real. I don’t think so.
Why anyone would make a fake accident is unreal. I hope it was fake for his sake.
Big guy coulda been a “Useful Idjit”, totally oblivious to the “Danger Will Robinson”.

I just watched a Coaster Force POV video from 3 weeks ago. The ride gets to the top, stops rotating, and then tips forward and holds that position for a few seconds — so you’re facing the ground before the free fall. If that kid wasn’t buckled in, at his size he would have fell right then.
fallen – not fell
Were they looking for a flat Tyre?
4chan’s calling him Splat Albert. It’s the Superbowl of gallows humor.
You that obese and you fall from that high there is going to be rupture of body. Skin can’t hold its integrity under such intense duress.
who’s being warned?
Alexander the Great provided one.
Reading through the comments with a mind for the amusement park industry, and you might be right that it was staged. In amusement parks the primary goal is safety to the point that the owners/operators do not want government regulators anywhere close to their operations. They are fanatics about it. If people do not fit in the ride, they are not allowed to ride. Period. That body was probably too large for the seat.
99.99% of fatalities on thrill rides happen due to riders getting out of the restraints after the ride has started. If the whole thing was staged, a lot of people were in on it.
could also have a bit of unintended consequences…the current rule of thumb is not to annoy/anger or irritate individual yutes running in large packs…IOW ‘don’t tell ’em what to do ???
The operator may have done a cursory check and big boy decided it was too tight?
Since, as Sadie points out, the incident was after hours I’m wondering if it wasn’t staged.
the kid was 6′ 6″ 280 lbs
A 14-year-old boy passed away after suffering a fatal fall from ICON Park’s Free Fall ride in Orlando on Thursday.
According to FOX, law enforcement officers, paramedics, and firefighters were present at the scene following a 911 call at approximately 11 pm.
I don’t really see it being staged but…who knows I guess
According to the links provided by Sadie, the park closes at ten on Thursdays. How did this happen after hours unless it was a private event? In general, the parks don’t extend hours for private events during the week. The American Coaster Enthusiasts ride after hours all the time, but on Friday and Saturday nights.
The amusement park hours thing could simply be, web site not updated. OR, Spring Break hours longer than typical March hours.
Seat restraint.
280 lbs? Could easily be 6′ 6″. 280 is VERY low, by my guesstimate. Would have expected a liquid, gooey mess where the body splatted. 75 MPH to zero, instantly. Hmmm.
Surprised onlookers AND riders NOT more vocal, animated…panicked.
Odd as hell. But, I lean towards the kid, did splat.
There’s gonna be a large pay out to kids family. Owner of the park is going to be under state regular microscope.
My guesses.
All the blame to the low employee who was supposed to verify. There are weight and height limits too, esp on rides like this. But im sure a kid that big and in a pack of other kids, they didnt want a scene if he was told no, and its likely there would have been one. Bug fat payday now.
yup.
This is the SAME CRAP THEY PULLED ON LIVESTOCK FARMERS AND PETTING FARMS! As I said in one of my articles they tried and tried to get a kid injured so they could get the food safety modernization act passed AND GET PETTING FARMS REGULATED…. I had 4 attacks the spring before they got the law passed and NON SINCE — going on 18 years.
The name of the game is to REGULATE ALL BUSINESSES. They even went after African hair braiding!
280 lbs???? NO WAY he is over 300 lbs.
That’s what I thought too!

ivermectin.com as seen on GAB!!!

A bit pricey, but nice to be able to order it here.
Yes! My thinking too.
As Covidiocy ends, Ivermectin will become more commonly available AND in time cheap. As it should be.
Hey Wolf! This is the perfect place to put my question/update.
A couple of weeks ago I went for my yearly blood work and asked the doc to do a Covid antibody test. Of course she sent them to me online, a process I believe I have to end. I don’t like it. However, here are the results:
SARS-CoV-2 Ab, nucleocapsid Result: Positive Standard Range: Negative
SARS-CoV-2 Semi-Quant Total Ab (U/mL) Result: 340.0 Standard Range: Negative<0.8
SARS-CoV-2 Spike Ab Interp Result: Positive
Those antibodies seem pretty high. What does it mean? I looked around online at interpreting the results, but it is confusing.
Whatever, I am definitely IMMUNE.
That’s a very reasonable positive value, kinda average, consistent with infection in the past with slowly waning but still good immunity.
Compare to positives here (spike antibodies in this case).
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8092751/
That’s good, and now I have EVIDENCE that I am IMMUNE.
Yup. You definitely had it. Unless you’ve had a more recent incident, I figure it was the one that you thought was COVID.
I haven’t been really sick AT ALL since the end of November, 2019. I had it then, every symptom. That was it.
I think I take so many vitamins and supplements now, viruses RUN from me!
LOL!!!
Yup. I think you’re right. It all adds up!
Which is VERY interesting, because we were speculating at the time that some of us were deliberately infected, early on. Some of what we were doing here at that point was pissing China off. Covid wasn’t even supposedly to be a thing yet.
I figured out the exact day I probably got Wuhan in January 2020. It was surprisingly easy 1-2 months later, using my calendar and other events. It will be 5 days before your first symptoms.
It wasn’t China in my case. It was probable 3-letter with a super-plausible “natural” explanation (international travel).
Your case, in Montana, could be extremely interesting.
Well, I could tell you how, but I would be doxxing myself somewhat. I will private message you on Gab.
Gotcha!!!
Foo Fighters drummer dead at 50. Foo Fighters require proof of injection to attend their concerts. This was the drummer’s last tweet:
John Stamos loses another friend. 🙄
Not too soon. Seems like right on time for ‘vaccine’ powermongers that suck at the MSM trough.
And 66k views. Lotta 6’s in this shit storm
Wow, obvious much?
One of his band side projects is called the Birds of Satan.
He had the clot shot and lots of prior drug use. Probably boosted right before the tour, plus at 50 he is in heart attack range.
All those things could have contributed to his complaints of chest pain.
What i wonder is for how long did he say he had chest pain and why wasnt he evaluated in a hospital?
The band will be making a big insurance payout bc of this, and the insurance may demand to know if it was clot shot related, in case a clause says they dont pay out!
Then either the band itself, ie dave grohl, mgrs, etc, would have to be sued by Hawkins’ widow. He had 3 minor children so she will want as much as she can get, despite his finances at time of death.
IIRC insurance won’t pay if deceased was in a clinical trial. The theory is that participation is voluntary; therefore deceased was responsible for his/her own death.
ALL those who took the ‘shot’ are in clinical trials.
Connect the dots = no money for you.
Yeah and at his income level this is their version of workers comp and liability, plus whatever life insurance he had. Future royalties aside, that a huge huge loss. I seriously doubt the willingness of grohl to be magnanimous. See his issues re cobains estate and his daughter.
So, my sister relays from my cousin, whose father (my uncle) just passed: “said to say hi to you. But she does not talk to or respect anti-vaxxers.”
Helps to understand why I loved my uncle and would have loved to hear from him and never did.
She cut you out in his dying days. C#nt
No, that was her father.
She’s just being peculiar. It’s a family specialty.
Does not talk to or respect anti-vaxers?
[shaking head]
Yeah, it’s tough to maintain any sort of a relationship with preconditions.
I’m so sorry to hear this.

Amen.

Thats a garbage human talking. So sorry.
No, it’s someone who isn’t quite right in her head w/r/t priorities.
Well she did supposedly say hello so theres some spark there. Im very wary of people. Guess its good I have a small family.
I am fucking so not garbage!
Huh? What? I was talking about the relative who refused to associate with him.
I’m sorry.

THE UNCROSSABLE RED LINE: Viganò Responds to George Weigel at First Things
Written by Carlo Maria Viganò
.
https://remnantnewspaper.com/web/index.php/fetzen-fliegen/item/5902-the-uncrossable-red-line-vigano-responds-to-george-weigel-at-first-things
I read that takedown. It’s glorious.
It’s been fascinating to watch Catholic media distance itself from Vigano as he tells the world what is going on and all but a few cry CONSPIRACY THEORY. They keep saying he’s going off the rails, but he has proof of what he presents that is ignored. He sources his words.
Those people are in for the shock of their lives other than Voris and his crew at Church Militant. He’s been reporting a lot of it.
I am an agnostic and I read Remnant News because he has his head screwed on correctly.
You do not have to be Catholic or Christian to appreciate the TRUTH!
Yup.
Yes – ! That’s exactly what strikes me about Vigano – besides his obvious love of Christ and Scripture – is his obvious depth and broad range of intel about current goings on. It’s as though Vigano and Trump and maybe Scavino, talk frequently and he reads Cue..
Verse of the Day for Saturday, March 26, 2022
✟
“Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.”
Proverbs 21:23 (KJV)
Thank You, Jesus, for blessings received and prayers answered!!!
BE MY VOICE
BABY LIVES MATTER
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.
YES!

We’ll see in the end.
Byrne was such a con. Yeah, DS operative for years turns and becomes MAGA? Nah.
“..,erased images..” Yes that sounds like he just hit the delete key and thought they were gone. Honestly I can’t believe no one found them until now because the software to find them was free, twas only the super dooper version one had to pay for.

Concerning Byrney does anyone still think the guy is on our site and not with the swamp?
I don’t trust him.
Makes two of us 😏
Never once seen him explain anything in plain straight forward fashion, just seems to me to talk muddle and confusion. Happen it’s me too dumb to understand, but I just see a fog of smoke.
I agree concerning Byrney.
You are NOT to dumb you are on to something 🙂

For some reason, yours truly can’t get away from the “moving the box” example. Where does the person moving the box fit into the scenario? And what if the person moving the box is also using something to help, like a hand truck?

As The World Turns, with Give Send Go (GSG), donations to Freedom Convoy 2022.
Yesterday, I posted both of my donations were a credit pending to my CC. Amounts equaled donations to truckers AND donations GSG.
Today, the pending credit amount appears to be LESS the GSG donation AND whatever processing fee GSG is charged. The balance, the credit IS the amount that would have gone to truckers, IS scheduled for return.
^^^ THIS IS actually what I expected AND fair to BOTH GSG and myself.
^^^ GSG has certainly incurred administrative costs to all along the way.
Will update when this pending credit is posted to my CC.
—-
My expectation is, all who were able to donate to Freedom Convoy 2022, will get their refunds.
—
Give Send Go, IS a stand up organization.
Meanwhile something else to consider. Not one dollar that I’m aware of ever got to any truckers. Maybe some money did get through, would love to hear about it.
Mixed bag IS my understanding, with guesses
GSG donation drives.
EDIT. Also would like to know whatever got through. The ONLY positiive is, the Canadian Truckers KNOW millions were donated. Citizens stood with the Truckers.
CORRUPT Trudescue AND CORRUPT Canadian politicians betrayed Canadian Truckers AND all Canadians.
There is another positive we cannot forget !
When Trudescu and his purple sidekick, froze citizen donor bank accounts and started investigations on the donors, the NWO/WEF/world central banker plan of total financial “method” of CONTROL was EXPOSED !!
Millions of Donors AND non donors alike WORLD-WIDE saw that in REAL TIME! !
That single act confirmed and removed any doubt whatsoever to even those on the sidelines, what they already suspected.
Once seen, THAT can’t be unseen
I think everyone awaits the full TRUTH full behind the obvious shenanigans that were at play here. 😉
I will not be surprised at all we find out later the monies supporting the Trucker movement was every bit as large, proportionally..and frightening to the TPTB as the MAGA movement$$ donations and voters. IMO this forced an error on their part. They said the quiet part out loud.
FJB
Cheers !!

Speaking of unHoly Hollyweird, and confusion in the leftardverse about defining what defines a woman, Vigilant Citizen has a new article up about a video aimed at 13-year-old girls, apparently redefining feminism, and what a “woman” really is. Scary stuff: I’d no idea that unHolyWeird could sink so low… no doubt they’ll sink lower still.
Disturbing, but seeing what the enemy is up to might well be what’s needed to motivate some major pushback against the likes of Disney, (Satan)Meta, Gargle, and all the rest.

I am so appalled at what i read on VC. My son wont be able to listen to a lot of music but i wouldnt call rap music anyway.
Needs a melody.
Rap doesn’t have one, just a beat.
Yes, rap composer/arrangers even use a special piano.
LOL!
Wel, since yours truly has perfect pitch, I’m hearing various combinations of notes that this “piano” would correspond to (from left to right / lowest to highest on the “keyboard”):
C / C# / D / D# / E
F / F# / G / G# / A
G / G# / A / A# / B
This is no joke. 😂 Here’s “Watch Me Whip”, from 5 years ago, with over 1B views. And all within a major third. (I can still see all the kids dancing on the blacktop, after lunch on Field Day.)
Your pitch might be perfect, but who says the piano is even *remotely* in tune? None of the notes might match anything nor be a tone or semitone away from the wrong note the neighboring white or black key is presently set to.
Folks with perfect pitch can look at a score and “hear” the notes. It works both directions, as it were.
I was in a group that did the Rachmaninov Vespers. At one of the first rehearsals, the director said, “OK, we’ll go on to the next number”. And before the fellow with the little harmonica-type-pitch reference thing could cut loose, I really softly hummed a “c”.
Two sopranos standing in front of me turned around, surprised as me, I guess, and asked if I had perfect pitch… They did, too. Don’t know the odds on that, but it was funny… Good thing, too, as sinking sopranos (so to speak) can make the basses’ lives miserable on that work, which goes down to a double-b-flat IIRC…
(As a bass, I always wanted to do the opposite, drift upwards and make like difficult for the sopranos 😀 but that would not be fun, either…)….
I’m thinking C..E, because the cutouts aren’t on the keys for either the b-flat or the f-sharp… (perfect pitch here, too… saved my cookies in theory class, because I can’t compose to save my life 🙂 I was probably the only one who looked forward to dictation…)…..
Considering it’s for (c)rap, probably better to have BillyGhoul’s CTL-ALT-DEL 😀
(Now I’ve got some of the change music from “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown” going through my head…)….
Yours truly still remembers the harmony classes where the professor would literally scratch the chalk on the blackboard, turn around to me and to the other student in the who had perfect pitch, and say, “All right, name the notes.”
Sez the rap “artist”: What are the keys on the left and right for? What about the black keys?
Actually, if you played the repeated riff from the video I posted . . . only the three white keys would be used. So the black keys wouldn’t matter. 🤔
How rayciss.
Yep. They have to make up for it by playing Chopin’s “Black Key” Etude, Op. 10. No. 5 😀
(OK, there are a few token “white privilege” keys included, too 🙂 )…
Here’s Gyorgy Cziffra playing that, as well as Liszt’s Transcendental Etude No. 10 in F.
Cziffra has a REALLY interesting history. Many consider him to be on the level with Horowitz, or even more astounding technically (lots of discussions on various piano/music boards about that). There’s a video out there with him warming up for a TV show with various compositions interspersed with him improvising… the folks in the studio were stunned at the display of virtuosity and musicianship…
I thought you needed an orange to play that.
😂
😁
So black lives matter, but black keys do not.
Gotcha. 😀

News Flash dated Nov 1st 2022: Babylon Bee (not really) reports Klaus Schwab of the WEF and Larry Fink of Black Rock have produced a document to install a NWO to save us from the defunct dollar, WW3, starvation and poverty.
The document, entitled World Economic Forum Ultimatum, also known as:
WEFU pronounced “We Eff You”
will quickly be installed before the election, which is another pesky chore you no longer will be needed to do.
TWO:
Documents received by B reports that Klaus Schwab’s previous vision for the Young Global Leaders which boasts such alumni as Trudeau, EyePatch and Grusome Newsome was to be a University, known as the WEFU

I cannot imagine what Ivanka’s purpose was in being associated with WEF. Mole perhaps?

CM 100% agree. There is no use for these people. They’re evil.
The people responsible for this kind of research need to be put on ice. They need to be out out of science never to be allowed near a lab. Those paying for these experiments need to be jailed. This is a crime against humanity.
Ackkk didn’t see this. Was too busy writing up my say above. Outrages!
It’s one thing after another!
Wait, isn’t there ALREADY a kind of “contagious vaccine” — the COVID “vaccines”? — the “shedding” of the spike protein POISON by those who are “vaccinated”?
I’ve heard rumors, but I don’t know it if has been proven. But they’re trying really hard.
Omicron is alleged to have been one of these – or at least demonstrates the principle.
All this is, is creating and releasing, e.g., a human-transmissible cowpox.
A dangerous but potentially useful idea if everything works as planned. It removes choice, though. I hate it, mostly.

Change 1 at our 2300 BC point we have Sargon the Great going out to conquer the world.
At their 2300 BC point ARB elevates science above religion.
Change 2 When Christ is born on Earth, ARB experiences the “Terrible Event”.
What’s the terrible event? The book never explains it. It’s just there in the time line, but whatever it was it was enough for ARB world wide to rise up and hunt down every scientist and philosopher type, murder many and lock away the rest in these huge monasteries after which the story continues pretty much until a bit into our future (to make sense of when three surviving planets one being the actual Earth, all existing in separate realities become known to ARB). That last is just an explainer not germane to my point. But this is.
