The vote on the trans Pacific authority will be held tomorrow in the House. John Boehner is confident he has enough votes to pass it, so experts say, or he wouldn’t even be bringing the measure up at this time. Yesterday Norman Goldman “thought” there were enough democratic votes to defeat the measure and hence the whole TPP project. However today Goldman described the race as “really tight”. Goldman has turned into kind of a gas bag anyhow just like he talked all over that one caller who wanted to discuss Christian television. I would say to Norman “Just shut up a minute; you might learn something”. With talk radio it’s almost a complement when you get treated like crap, because that means the host is deathly afraid of the valid points you might make. I would note that Rush Limbaugh is always civil with his callers and if there is a conservative on, they get a fair shake. May I suggest that in the past few years liberals have been altogether too optimistic- about everything. They claim the Republican party has no direction. They claim Republicans are not unified. Both are false. They know exactly what sort of America they want to institute and so do you. They march in military lock step. If one candidate strays too far from the Koch Brothers and FOX talking points, they get reeled back in and toe the line. And I suspect the “no turning back clause” is invoked. It’s like with the famed proposed 27th Amendment to the constitution. The equal rights amendment. They figured if they could let it hang out there for ten years like velcroe it would on its own acquire enough votes eventually. But of course if the thing had passed we would have had chaos in the courts. In addition to all the disputed equal pay for equal work stuff, there would be unisex restrooms and co-ed gym lockers, as well as gay marriage. And if it passed Prom Queens would be real Queens, if you know what I mean. The bottom line is I’ve had a bad feeling about the Trans Pacific Partnership for weeks. I think the whole thing is going to be passed and made part of the law of the land. There is still far too much apathy to stop the juggernaut. And remember the way John Boehner will secure the votes of the wavering is to promise them the moon- - and they will be counting on it and say to their people back home “Look what concessions I got from John Boehner”. I can’t claim that like the ERA the courts will be clogged with chaos- - because of course there WILL be no courts in the sense that Americans think of them. There will only be the pre set (and pre decided in a Cardassian sense) corporate kangaroo courts.
I had Bill Carol on over the lunch hour is
Sean Hannity is going to lie and claim all his employees make at LEAST four
hundred thousand per year, which they would have to if what he were saying
about their tax situation were true. And
if they ARE that rich, what do they have to complain about? I agree New York’s taxes seem too high but
why don’t they all make good on their threat and move to Texas? I’ve heard that Clear Channel is going to
kick all those conservative bozos off the network starting next year
anyhow. Bill Carol talked about “Drought
shaming” and how it’s now a crime to have a green lawn. If you have a green lawn you are presumed to
be guilty without benefit of trial.
Then there was the segment with people with “bodily fluids” in the pool
and interacting with the chlorine adverse.
In criticism of Bill’s basic premise- - any acid will have the tendency
to neutralize a base like chlorine- - and not make it more potent. In terms of Clyde Weston on Days of our Lives
– Victor made one mistake. He should
have kept that remark about shooting trespassers to himself and shot him in the
dark as he made his way to his car.
They’ve got Danielle
and Shane on the Thom Hartman show. It’s
the 2nd team in for TH today and they are talking hypothetically
what if people lost health coverage from an adverse Supreme Court ruling on
Health Care. The ruling hasn’t come down
yet but Stephanie was talking about it too.
I had an episode of “Ring of Fire” on talking about the manufactures of
high priced drugs buying out the generic producers- - or would be generic
producers bribing them NOT to distribute the drug once the patent runs
out. Another segment lamented that not
only have republicans gone way to the political right but Mike Papentonio still
believes democrats have gone to the right and reminded us that Hillary Rodham
used to be a Goldwater supporter and that Chaffey used to be a Republican. But the biggest news was that Mc Connell is
putting a hold on all judicial appointments by the Obama Administration for the
next eighteen months.
I was confirming the
2.646 number for Base e if twos and fours are involved. However I can’t remember or figure where the
figure of 2.656 figure fit in. Clearly
it doesn’t work for two’s and three’s.
My brain is too lethargic this morning to continue. This afternoon (after time has passed) I went
into the “OLDIES” directory in QBASIC and did “Jumping” and “Logbase”, which is
the Base E formula. Here it is. It’s (1 + 1 / X) ^X. As
I look at that formula even though it ran the BASE E program it doesn’t make
sense. How is X anything other than the initialized value of one? Maybe I miscopied. The CONV FACTOR program in Excel - - has a
hatchback stile line graph, but the graph isn’t included in the program. This is the proposition that when the ratio
between base and exponent increases - - BASE E can be redefined downward, or so
it would seem. I got to thinking about
how the only combination that works are when base and exponent are 2 and
4. And yet the “inverse balance factor”
as I call it would be 2.646 and not 2.718 with this combo where you have
exponent and base as recripricals of each other. But in the 2 and 4 example, 2 and 4 are not
recripricals of each other anyway.
We in the Federation tend
not to use the Roman number III, if you look at our writings over the past 25
plus years. The one case where you have
a three planet system is with Sirius where you have Sirius B, A, and O. Sirius B is the closest to their compound
star where you notice a zig-zag pattern of the sun in the sky, which according
to legend is where the term “Ziggy” came from.
This is a sun of earth like brightness.
The other two are much farther away.
Sirius A - - has such dim days- - they set their clocks by New York time
here on earth and disregard whether it’s actually day or night. It sounds insane but that’s how they
live. As to Sirius O this star is even
farther away and is racially hetrogenious.
It would be the coldest planet but like Andromeda E’s planet- - there is
a natural heat of the earth’s crust. In
fact the Crestorians have a term for it translated “Night Heat” that sometimes
is applied to the city of Atlanta. One
term of “Danibula” or whatever- - was used on Jeopardy the other day, which is
a Romulan star with planets II and IV but we know it by the name Denelus.
