Nice vid, cool music. What is the vid set-up that shows speed and direction?

LOL!

Clearly it's not a motorcycle. But this is amusing... The key to a happy marriage? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-3341358/The-key-happy-marriage-tall-husband-Couples-biggest-height-differences-best-relationships.html A tall husband: Couples with the biggest height differences found to have best relationships Researchers found the greater the difference, the happier the wife isBut the effect faded over time and stopped altogether after 18 years Study based on 7,850 women collected from a long-term population surveyWomen who opt for tall men are also more fertile, scientists suggest So.... Short chicks? But wait! He added that the relationship between height and happiness ‘gradually weakened over time and entirely dissipated by 18 years of marital duration’. So, there is no way to win? After 20 years they all hate you. You ungrateful lout. Take the damn trash out will you! Paging Tonik for equal hate time.

Stolen?

OK, ORDN peeps, here's a question for you. What tire pressure do you keep on what type of bike? Winter? Summer? Shops seem to use higher pressures. IP likes 35/lbs it would seem from previous trips to them. So what do you use for your track bike or street bike? Or are they the same?

The "Politically Correct" version of the "Crusades" is a bit one sided. It was not an attack on the Muslims, It was a defense of peoples homeland. Here is a historical piece on them. http://www.crisismagazine.com/2011/the-real-history-of-the-crusades From the article: Christians in the eleventh century were not paranoid fanatics. Muslims really were gunning for them. While Muslims can be peaceful, Islam was born in war and grew the same way. From the time of Mohammed, the means of Muslim expansion was always the sword. Muslim thought divides the world into two spheres, the Abode of Islam and the Abode of War. Christianity—and for that matter any other non-Muslim religion—has no abode. Christians and Jews can be tolerated within a Muslim state under Muslim rule. But, in traditional Islam, Christian and Jewish states must be destroyed and their lands conquered. When Mohammed was waging war against Mecca in the seventh century, Christianity was the dominant religion of power and wealth. As the faith of the Roman Empire, it spanned the entire Mediterranean, including the Middle East, where it was born. The Christian world, therefore, was a prime target for the earliest caliphs, and it would remain so for Muslim leaders for the next thousand years. With enormous energy, the warriors of Islam struck out against the Christians shortly after Mohammed’s death. They were extremely successful. Palestine, Syria, and Egypt—once the most heavily Christian areas in the world—quickly succumbed. By the eighth century, Muslim armies had conquered all of Christian North Africa and Spain. In the eleventh century, the Seljuk Turks conquered Asia Minor (modern Turkey), which had been Christian since the time of St. Paul. The old Roman Empire, known to modern historians as the Byzantine Empire, was reduced to little more than Greece. In desperation, the emperor in Constantinople sent word to the Christians of western Europe asking them to aid their brothers and sisters in the East. That is what gave birth to the Crusades. They were not the brainchild of an ambitious pope or rapacious knights but a response to more than four centuries of conquests in which Muslims had already captured two-thirds of the old Christian world. At some point, Christianity as a faith and a culture had to defend itself or be subsumed by Islam. The Crusades were that defense. I will now sit back and just watch this thread, ought to be interesting....

I still want my flying car...

Here is another one. It runs on a V4 200 horsepower petrol engine that drives two ducted fans and can fly for more than 30 minutes at up to 74 kilometers per hour and altitudes of up to 1000 meters. It can carry a commercial payload of up to 120 kilograms. http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/25/us-australia-france-jetpack-tracked-idUSKBN0P522O20150625?feedType=RSS&feedName=technologyNews#LAIpmYlTyQe7oK81.97 A bit pricey and a little bulky, but even so....

Hmmm... How about that.... Orban's ratings rise as Hungarian fence deters migrant 'invasion'BUDAPEST (Reuters) - With an anti-immigrant campaign and razor-wire border fence Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has reversed a slide in his party's popularity, emerging at home as a winner in the crisis that has divided Europe. Personal approval ratings have also jumped for the man who closed down a major transit route through Hungary for hundreds of thousands of asylum seekers fleeing war and poverty. More here: https://ca.news.yahoo.com/orbans-ratings-rise-hungarian-fence-deters-migrant-invasion-120823942--business.html Interesting spin on the story. Not the same as here. But interesting spin none the less.

From the percentages on the two issues it doesn't seem to me to be a conservative or liberal response. Seems pretty even across the board. The anti-monopoly, issue 2 was pretty even indicating that was more of an issue the issue 3 itself. Of course I could be wrong but that is how I'm reading this issues. Nobody wanted a monopoly.

So Issue 3 failed, Issue 2 passed. Now what? I'm thinking the cartel angle is one of the reasons 3 failed and 2 passed. The legalization people are still there and bound to make another attempt. How do you think they will structure it? Medical first? General decriminalization? Your thoughts?

Back to Videos Krauthammer: "We're Living In An Age Where What You Say And Its Relation With The Facts Is Completely Irrelevant" Syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer reacts to Hillary Clinton's handling of the House Select Committee on Benghazi hearing. CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: That's They knew it was a terror attack. They got it from Gregory Hicks, who was on the ground in Tripoli who told them that. He had ended up demoted in the State Department for having transgressed against the Secretary. And yet, they go ahead, they put Susan Rice on that weekend. And tell a tale that is completely false. Spontaneous demonstration, out of control, et cetera, of the video. I think that's where the emphasis ought to be. I think A.B. [stoddard] right. The judge [Andrew Napolitano] said there are three audiences, the main audience that matters, unless she's indicted, is the people. American people watching this. They don't care about [sidney] Blumenthal. She had her way, when she lowered her voice, and talked about the sleepless nights, it was a gripping performance, which is the way I would put it so I can remain neutral on this. But showing that she really cared, et cetera or at least giving that impression. And that's what's going to be shown. Politics and reality are not related. How apropos of this thread...

Only a matter of time until political correctness overwhelms the will of the people. "Harrison Bergeron" anyone? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harrison_Bergeron

Interesting but misleading statistic. Wouldn't it be more accurate to say %100 of the fortune 500 were started by immigrants? The casino's on the reservations are privately held so therefor not on the S&P 500 list.

I've never heard the reasoning behind this statement. It is said often to support the movement. But that in and of itself doesn't make it true. It seems to me that the economy would be modified by the hiring of bi-lingual teachers and police for a larger population. The tax base would stay the same as the newcomers would not be homeowners so no property taxes leading to an increase in taxes. Etc, etc, so where is the benefit to the economy? The difference between the USA and Mexico is an imaginary line in the dirt. One set of laws and government on one side and another on the other. Quite an endorsement for our form of government, Or a slap in the face for the other form if you see it that way.
