*** begin quote ***

Dust from the Sahara Desert blown north by strong seasonal winds to France did not only bring stunning light and sunsets – it also carried abnormal levels of radiation.

No idea if this is true or not!

But if it is, then it’s a great lesson in Karma or Unintended Consequences?

Wonder what the health consequences are?

Florida Governor DeSantis: Covid bill really just a “blue state” bailout

Wednesday, March 3, 2021

(From The Federalist) “They (Congress) are actually rewarding the states that have the highest unemployment rates. So if you locked down, if you destroyed your own economy through your own policies, you are getting a windfall,” DeSantis said on Fox News as his state hosted the annual Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).

Nolte: Tina Fey Lied About Golden Globes Not Being Political

Tuesday, March 2, 2021

It tells us Hollywood is full of unprincipled, McCarthyite fascists who don’t care if “their guy” puts kids in cages, because it was never about “kids in cages,” it was only ever about power.

Nolte: Tina Fey Lied About Golden Globes Not Being Political

# – # – # – # – #

Let’s not forget; it’s NEVER about the issue at hand. It IS about who’s “guy” is in power.

Remember back to the “anti war” left that only comes out when there is an R in the White House.

It’s like the “deficit hawks” that only come out when there is a D in the White House.

Well, I’, anti-war and anti-deficit REGARDLESS of which of the Republicrats to Democans are in power.

Argh!

TECHNOLOGY: Google Pay loses functionality permanently

Monday, March 1, 2021

*** begin quote ***

First, starting on April 5th, the following features will no longer be available from the old app and at pay.google.com:
•
Ability to send, request or receive money
•
View of your recent activity or transaction history

*** end quote ***

That sounds like a pretty big change to me.

Guess google can’t compete with all the other ways to “send, request, or receive” money?

No impact to me, but maybe to Google’s Users of their phones?

‘Everything Has Been Criminalized,’ Says Neil Gorsuch as He Pushes for Stronger Fourth Amendment Protections – Reason.com

Sunday, February 28, 2021

In short, under Gorsuch’s view, the Fourth Amendment’s warrant requirement would only be waived in such cases if the police were pursuing someone suspected of committing a genuinely violent or dangerous crime, a category that necessarily excludes a great many suspected misdemeanants and felons. If adopted by the Supreme Court, that approach would limit police power in these sorts of cases.

Hawaii considering a rescue fine if hikers don’t follow signs

Saturday, February 27, 2021

The Star-Advertiser reported that Case also noted in her testimony that the DLNR would defer to counties — who are responsible for search and rescue operations — on whether they required hikers to pay for their rescue or not.

Seems only right and fair.

I’d be surprised if some insurance company doesn’t step and underwrite the risk by creating pool.

I never thought it was fair for the taxpayer to get stuck with the bill for “rescues”.

Especially when it was due to someone’s stupidity. Like blindly follow directions from an idiot box when driving in the mountains and taking a ‘SHORT CUT’!

Argh!

Let the User pay for services. Just like in the real (non-Goofermental) world.
