7/28 what is a lemon party?
\_ Google for it.
\_ I don't think it's work safe. Something to do with old people
and orgies.
\_ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemon_party
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shock_site#Lemonparty.org
Both are hilarious. |

7/29 Is there a verbose option for shutdown in RedHat Linux? I'd really
like to see the messages being generated without have to 'tail
/var/log/messages' over and over.
\_ stick this in your .bashrc
"alias mtail="sudo tail -F --retry /var/log/messages"
and do it in another window after you type shutdown
\_ >.< Silly me, forgot the option to "follow" with tail. This
will do nicely. Thank you.
\_ login in on console and watch th shutdown process there? |

7/29 Monica Goodling and Alberto Gonzalez routinely broke the law
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/07/28/AR2008072801007.html
\_ "young political aide" ... "Goodling, 34". Wow, 34 is young. I feel
better now.
\_ 30 is the new 20.
\_ They were following a higher law. God Bless!
\_ Goodling was already granted immunity in return for her
testimony and Gonzalez will be pardoned. Is it really "breaking
the law" if you believe you are above the law and have the
power to get away with it?
\_ Of course it is. Whether you get punished for it is something
else. |

\_ Based on the for sale flyers I see, prices in the parts of
SJ near Cupertino/Saratoga have gone up slightly from January.
\_ This is a typo. "SF" for Case Shiller means SF MSA, which is
SF, CoCo and Alameda counties.
SF, Marin, San Mateo, Alameda and CoCo counties.

7/29 More ice breaking off:
"Giant chunks break off Canadian ice shelf"
http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080729/wl_canada_nm/canada_arctic_col
"Temperatures in large parts of the Arctic have risen far faster than
the global average in recent decades, a development that experts say
is linked to global warming."
\_ It's summer.
http://icecap.us/images/uploads/NSIDC071708.JPG
\_ It didn't break off in 3000 other summers:
'"Whatever has kept this ice shelf in balance for 3,000 years is
no longer keeping it in balance," he told Reuters, saying he too
would not be surprised to see more ice breaking away from the
Ward Hunt shelf this year.'
\_ So since it's been warmer in the past 3000 years, global
temperature must not be the triggering factor. What about the
rise of volcanism in the arctic?
\_ Water keeps heat over time, and it probably took longer
than a couple of months to go from stable for 3000 years
to where it is now. But don't stop wearing those
blinders, they look good on you.
\_ Sigh. I know water has a heat capacity. There have been
warmer trends for longer in the last 3000 years.
ty. There have been
warmer trends for longer in the last 3000 years.
\_ See billy, elves did it. And I prove that by
making up data!
\_ Hell, elves are more consistent than AGW, which
seems to make no falsifiable claims.
\_ So where is your 3000 year old temperature
data?
\_ GTFW "medieval warm period"
\_ "the idea of a global or
hemispheric "Medieval Warm
Period" that was warmer than
today however, has turned out to
be incorrect" and that what
those "records that do exist
show is that there was no
multi-century periods when
global or hemispheric
temperatures were the same or
warmer than in the 20th century" (NOAA)
\_ Damn you and your facts! Don't
ruin a perfectly good rehashed
flamewar.
\_ "The summers 9,500 years ago were
warmer than today"
http://tinyurl.com/5nc58b
\_ 3000 < 9500
\_ Damn, you're right. It's out of
the time range, so we must be
causing this warming.
\_ Nice blinders. Wanna fuck?
\_ Guys! Note that I already inserted the flamewar
placeholder for you. No need to actually have
the same old flamewar again.
\_ Insert usual AGW flamewar here. |

7/29 5.8 quake in LA
\_ Felt exactly like Whittier quake, so it's not surprising it's
roughly the same size. A whole lotta shaking, though.
\_ Chino Hills is NOT Los Angeles. Los Angeles is in-between
the 110 the 10 and the 5. Chino Hills is far away from
Los Angeles. Fucking ignorant northerners. To be precise,
you should say "The Greater LA"
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/eqcenter/recenteqsus/Quakes/ci14383980.php#details
http://preview.tinyurl.com/67pu5h [usgs]
\_ LA is not only between the 110, 10, and 5, angry dude. LA is
south of the 10, for instance. Chino Hills is rightly
considered a suburb of LA, even though it is in SB County.
Plenty of people in LA proper were shaken pretty good.
\_ The epicenter was Chino hills. Are you saying there wasn't any
shaking in LA proper?
\_ revised down to a 5.4 |

7/29 McCain far less active than Obama on the hill
http://thehill.com/leading-the-news/sen.-mccain-holds-off-putting-his-name-on-gop-energy-proposal-2008-07-28.html
\_ So what? I mean, I know what you're trying to say, this is supposed
to defuse the critisism that Obama isn't doing anything. The
difference is that McCain has been very active for 25 years.
Obama has been pretty much inactive for 3 years. What they are
doing right now matters much more to Obama since his history is
so much shorter. |

7/29 Turns out that putting people in housing actually reduces
homelessness, who could have guessed that?
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/07/30/us/30homeless.html?hp
\_ And we care because... ?
\_ Does that include a nurse maid to wipe their ass? I thought it was
"teach a man to fish", not "give him a fish."
\_ Because the govt wastes time and money to create reports on such
obvious matters? -- !OP |
