The Governor signed an executive order on Thursday that enables the Florida Division of Emergency Management to bring Floridians home and transport supplies out to Israel. They. estimate some 20,000 U.S. citizens, including Floridians, are stranded in Israel.

The executive order directs the Flordia Division of Emergency Management to charter flights for Americans trying to get home. It also states, “There are more than 20,000 Americans, including Floridians in Israel who wish to return home but are unable to do so. The executive order allows the State of Floria to carry out logistical, rescue, and evacuation operations to keep its residents safe.”

Spin Zone / Re: mRNA Shots Linked To 17 Million Sudden Deaths

  Before the scamdemic, if a vaccine killed 50 people it was removed immediately.

  And if these so called vaccines were "safe and effective" then the manufacturers would have no trouble defending them, nor would they have done so much in secrecy that they have tried to hide from the public.

“Safe and effective” is never 100% either safe nor effective but it’s a trade off.  Let’s say you have a vaccine that is 99% effective preventing you from getting a disease that has a 1 in 3 death rate, but the vaccine has a 1 in a million chance of killing you.  That would be a no brainer. You’d be a fool not to get the vaccine.

But if the vaccine is only 50% effective in preventing a disease that only has a 1% fatality rate and the vaccine has a 1 in 100 chance of killing you, that’s a completely different scenario.  You probably shouldn’t get it, or at least dig more into the facts to see if the fatalities are skewed into certain demographics.  Example:  Covid the disease mostly kills old people while the Covid vax mostly kills young people.  Learn the numbers for your demographic then make a decision.

One of the problems I have is when they tell you it’s “safe and effective” they don’t give you honest information about these statistics.  I don’t have problems with vaccines per se, even the Covid one.  I have big problems with government agencies and corporate entities obfuscating information when a political and profit agenda is involved.

I want the bare facts. The truth. Once I feel like they’re playing us, they lose all credibility.  That doesn’t mean I suddenly think the vax is 0% effective and 100% deadly.  It does mean I mistrust everything anyone tells me.  Once something is in two polarized camps it becomes difficult to find truly objective information.

Isn't "rational trans" an oxymoron, sort of like jumbo shrimp or military intelligence?

Not at all. Rational trans understand reality.  They know they have the XX or the XY respectively and that that determines basic physiology. Therefore they understand, for example, that allowing trans “women” to compete in women’s sports is completely unfair.

The problem is those people aren’t highlighted by the media so you don’t hear from them very often. What is shoved in our faces all the time are the crazies, so we think all trans are completely off their rocker.  There are trans who say, “My gender dysphoria is a mental disorder.  I acknowledge that.  That doesn’t make it go away but it means I can deal with it understanding that my feelings of being the opposite gender do not change the fact that I am in reality my birth sex.”  That’s rational. I watched an interview of a female to male trans who said exactly that.  But you don’t see this person show up in your social media feed, you have to go search for it.

Media and social media echo chambers make it hard to see nuance.

Rusty & Student Pilots / Re: Accelerated Instrument vs. regular
« on: October 11, 2023, 07:23:33 AM »
Started my instrument (re)training yesterday.  1.2 under the hood.  After 20 years things came back pretty quickly.  Documented the pitch / power settings for various climbs and descents.  Then progressed to some rapid-fire altitude and/or heading changes.  Glass is SO much easier to fly with than the old six-pack.  But even so I'm glad I have the analog altitude and rate of climb indicators for quick reference.  I still have to work on rapid interpretation and finding what I need to see quickly.  Then not fixating.  The heading and altitude bugs are super helpful.  The 170 is less stable than a 172 so changing altitude / heading while programming the GPS means things go wonky in a hurry.  Next flight in a week.  Looking forward to it!

DeSantis should have made a deal to be Trump's VP running mate.

That was a real possibility early on and looked good. It’s too late now. Too much water under the bridge.

DeSantis should have supported President Trump, then waited his turn. He’s out of the natural order. In the fullness of time he would have been good. Probably not great, but good.

Two losers thinking they’re still relevant. Those pompous idiots and others like them are why our country is sliding into hell. They don’t lead, they serve themselves not Americans, they don’t fight back against the rot. Money grubbing  egotistical snakes.

It is, and always will be, Columbus Day — and should be acknowledged as such....

Quote
Today is Columbus Day; it is not Indigenous People’s Day. It is not any other day left-wing cultural assassins want to make it. Despite these radicals’ attempts to reshape our nation’s culture to align with their values and beliefs, the second Monday in October is, and will always be, the holiday recognized to celebrate the achievements of Christopher Columbus.

So what are you saying?  Should we just give up on nuclear?

No!!!  We need to ramp up nuclear but we obstruct it with government interference. Government needs to overhaul its regulatory grip on it and just let the marketplace do its thing but good luck with that.

In the meantime we need to open up fossil fuel again. Quit with the war against coal and oil. Stop shutting down coal plants. Increase the use of natural gas. Opening up our own fossil industry will bring prices back down and we need to resupply the strategic oil reserves. Depleting that is one of more egregious things that old man did. All of that can be done in a year or two if we get DJT back in the White House. God, we desperately need him.

And our grid needs to be secured much better, it's too vulnerable.

I’m sitting on a cruise ship in Cyprus right now. 

Was supposed to be day two of three in Israel, obviously the cruise line has been scrambling to make changes. 

They have now cancelled Egypt as well.  According to the captain an Israeli tourist was shot by an Egyptian cop.  Haven’t found anything in the next about that, but haven’t look too hard.

Really sad to be missing both countries, but that is nothing compared to the Israeli’s  Had to cancel our tours, and the responses from the tour guides was heart breaking…. 

-Dan

I saw something about that incident in Egypt.  Sounds like the Captain and cruise line are making good decisions. Stay safe.

They have been fighting over there for millennia.

I always say - if you want to go over there to fight personally because you think one side or the other is so righteous, go ahead. If you want to give money to one side or the other, go ahead.

But don’t forcibly take money from me to pay for it. And don’t enslave my children to fight for the side you favor.
The best thing we could do to limit the violence over there is to stop spending Trillions on  Middle East Oil.  If we have to continue using fossil fuels, then spend the money we give to Israel on exploiting our own resources while we build up our Nuclear, solar and wind resources.

Saw something the other day saying Lindell's lawyers quit because he is out of money.  Looks like they've succeeded in shutting him down.

Yep, they are financially and professionally going after anyone that becomes influential as proTrump or against the narrative.  Say one single anti-woke thing they cancel a whole show (Roseanne Barr), go after your professional license (Jordan Peterson - Canada’s got a similar problem), discover a parade of females with post-coital regret and threaten the platform you’re on (Russell Brand - same in the UK).  If you need convincing that the Marxist/Fascist Dems are one and the same with the global elite the evidence is everywhere. There’s a reason the Dems aren’t interested in defending the border.
