Old TimeCook Book and Sruff

Things mother used to make, a collection of old time recipes, some nearly one hundred years old and never published before (1914) “ To Boil Eggs Put your eggs into a bowl which can be sent to the table. Pour boiling water over them and let stand eight or ten minutes. It is essential that the water be boiling. This way of boiling eggs, though so simple, is going out of fashion, unfortunately, as it makes a wonderful difference in the appearance of the egg when broken open, and above all, in its digestibility. Eggs should never be boiled in any other way for invalids. To Make Tea and Coffee Always use freshly boiled water. Do not boil more than three or four minutes. This is very im- portant, in making a good cup of tea or coffee. Never use water which has stood in the teakettle over night. A Use for Left-over Coffee Do not throw away the coffee you have left from breakfast. If you do not care for iced coffee for dinner, make a little coffee jelly, by the recipe on page 27. * To Remove Disagreeable Odors from the House Sprinkle fresh ground coffee, on a shovel of hot coals, or burn sugar on the shovel. This is an old- fashioned disinfectant, still good. A Use for the Vinegar Off Pickles When your pickles have been used from your glass jars, do not throw away the vinegar. Use it in your salad dressing. It is much better than plain vinegar because of the flavor. Do not Allow a Child to Eat Fresh Snow  This often looks clean and pure but fill a tumbler with it, cover to keep out the dust and then show it to the child, that he may see for himself, the dirt it contains. To Soften Boots and Shoes Rub them with kerosene. Shoes will last longer, if rubbed over with drippings from roast lamb. Old- fashioned people always used mutton tallow on children's shoes. A Fine Way to Keep Cut Roses Immerse them at night in a pail of cold water, blossoms down. Mark New Rubbers Take a pointed stick a wooden skewer from the butcher's is best dip it into ink and write the name, on the inside. A free Kindel Book, but  impossible to copy text from, so I went to the well.  A really delightful read. *Coffee Jelly 1 Small Box of Gelatine 1 Scant Quart of Boiling 1 Pint of Strong Coffee Water 1 Cupful of Sugar Flavor with Vanilla Soak the gelatine in cold water for fifteen minutes. Stir into the coffee and add sugar, salt and water, then vanilla. Pour into a mould and set away to cool. Serve with sweetened whipped cream. ”

The Military Define Hate Groups- and They Is You

“ The DOD Define Hate Groups ... And They Is You Judicial Watch have obtained Defense Department Teaching Documents that suggest links to “Extremists” and "Mainstream Conservative Views."  First question:  Why are the Military engaging in this bit of indoctrination?  The entire presentation depends on the acceptance of something called "Hate Speech,"  or "Hate Think."  A contrivance that saw its beginning in a United Nations food fight in 1948, where the dominant force behind the attempt to adopt an obligation to restrict freedom of expression was the Soviet Union. This DOD document is classic use of that doctrine, now encoded into American Law by American Soviets, a.k.a., pointy headed liberals. The descriptions of "Extremist Groups" On Page 39 have descriptions "provided by the Southern Poverty Law Center.  The SPLC have  the same threshold for what is bad as do the ACLU.  They for instance labeled the  Family Research Council as a “hate group”  for adhering to a biblical perspective on homosexuality. Doomsday thinking Extremists often predict dire or catastrophic consequences from a situation or from a failure to follow a specific course, and they tend to exhibit a kind of crisis-mindedness. It can be a Communist takeover, a Nazi revival, nuclear war, earthquakes, floods, or the wrath of God. Whatever it is, it is just around the corner unless we follow their program and listen to their special insight and wisdom, to which only the truly enlightened have access. For extremists, any setback or defeat is the beginning of the end. Let's see.  Are there historical patterns that might suggest the formation of tyrannical government?  Of course.  Do the current administration exhibit any of the warnings?  I leave it to you.  Juxtaposed is the God complex exhibited in  "earthquakes, floods ... unless we follow their program and listen to their special insight and wisdom, to which only the truly enlightened have access."    Bring anyone to mind? Extremist Ideologies 1. As noted, an ideology is a set of political beliefs about the nature of people and society. People who are committed to an ideology seek not only to persuade but to recruit others to their belief. In U.S. history, there are many examples of extremist ideologies and movements. The colonists who sought to free themselves from British rule and the Confederate states who sought to secede from the Northern states are just two examples Pick from among the groups currently problematical and active groups that warrant concern.  Extremist Groups Neo -Confederate – Primarily celebrate Southern culture and the Civil War; some factions embrace racist attitudes toward Blacks, and some favor White separatism. The neo-Confederate movement includes a number of organizations that generally share the goals of preserving Confederate monuments, honoring the Confederate battle flag, and lauding what is judged to be Southern culture. Many have close ties to the White supremacist League of the South Black Separatist– Typically oppose integration and racial intermarriage; want separate institutions or even a separate nation for Blacks. Most forms of Black separatism are strongly anti-White and anti-Semitic, and a number of religious versions assert that Blacks are the Biblical “chosen people” of God. Other groups espousing the same beliefs would be considered racist. The same criteria should be applied to all groups, regardless of color. Ku Klux Klan– Primarily against Black Americans, its members have also attacked Jews, immigrants, and Catholics It typically sees itself as a Christian organization fighting for civil rights for Whites and is historically violent as a vigilante group. With its long history of violence, the KKK is the most infamous and oldest of American hate groups. Neo-Nazi– Share a hatred for Jews and a love for Adolf Hitler and Nazi Germany; also hate other minorities and homosexuals; believe in Christian White supremacy. While its roots are in Europe, the links with American neo-Nazi groups are strong and growing stronger. They left out "Anti-Injun Savages"  A problem with  having morally superior hubris is the attendant lack of ability to recognize death by irony.  Only one of the groups listed above would be viewed as a current threat by anybody not drowning in PC.  And that current rampage can be directly linked to messages sent to the Black community by Eric Holder's refusal to prosecute the Black Panthers for voter intimidation.  He and Obama have continued to encourage that HATE. Whoops.  That's doomsday thinking. Sorry. ”

The Obama Regime

Hitler's Mustache                “   Slowly at first, then all of a sudden, the Obama administration has devolved into the Obama regime. Obama does whatever he wants. Those pesky impediments on his predecessors — namely, federal law, the separation of powers, and the Constitution — have proved as tough as tissue paper in containing Obama’s ambition to impose statism on America. From Obamacare to unions to telephones, it’s basically another day, another decree. “There is no provision in the Constitution that authorizes the president to enact, to amend, or to repeal statutes.” Justice John Paul Stevens , 1998 “I have to figure out what I can do outside of Congress through executive actions,” Obama reportedly told the Congressional Black Caucus last month. In Jacksonville on July 25, Obama announced, “Where I can act on my own, I’m going to act on my own. I won’t wait for Congress.” As Politico’s Edward-Isaac Dovere explained: “The president is done caring about congressional Republicans calling him a dictator.” It does appear that there's movement towards acknowledging what we've known for four years. However, the closest the  NR author comes to recommending a course of action is commenting on a Justice  Stevens quote  from the Clinton era (inset) “ Obama sees things differently. For him, the Constitution is for chumps, and the law is for losers. In History of the World Part I, Mel Brooks observed: “It’s good to be the king.” Yes, but it’s better to be Obama. ” What's called for here are Thomas Jefferson quotes.   Update Axelrod: Talk of Impeachment ‘Virus that Needs to be Curbed’ ”

Japan's 4.2309972e-13% Solution

GREEN CRAP “ Insight: In Fukushima end-game, radiated water has nowhere to go   Some 330,000 tons of contaminated water - enough to fill more than 130 Olympic swimming pools - has been pumped into storage pits and above-ground tanks at the crippled facility. The sheer scale of the build-up has prompted some experts and officials to warn that in order to focus on containing the most toxic waste, less contaminated water will have to be dumped into the sea. [Full] Boo Hoo Fricking  Hoo. There are 187,189,915,062,857,142,857 gallons of water in the Pacific Ocean.  1 gallon of water =~ 8.345 lbs 2000 lbs / 8.345 lbs/gal = 239.65 gal per tonne Fukushima has 330,000 tonnes of contaminated water, or 79,200,000 gal (330,000*240) If all of Fukishima's contaminated water was dropped into the Pacific ocean, it would represent  4.2309972e-13%  of the total Your mind cannot grasp the insignificance of that number.  So why don't they just do it?  That's right, the Greenpeace lobby of nutters. That mindset has kept the United States from drilling for what is possibly the worlds largest store of oil.  Instead, we've allowed Muslims like the Saudis to have their way with us. So go ahead Japan, do what you have to with no apologies. Come to think of it, Red China has a population of 1.344 billion.  How many gallons per person is that? I'll let someone else figure out how many tonnes of irradiated water were produced by all the under sea nuclear bomb tests. Rodge has a math IQ in the upper 1% of mankind.  However, as his 2nd grade teacher, I can tell you that he can be criminally reckless when putting that rubber on the road.  I'd give him an A for this report, but I'm not very good at scinetific npttion.  I'm a Latin teacher.

Re Islam

World Enemy #1                                   WORD Pic via Ron Metzger   I want to say this.  If you read the Bible, you know that Muslims subscribe to the very same laws given by God to Moses (Exodus).  They were harsh; stoning, killing for damned near any offense, violation, sin sacrifices, etc.  If they want to remain true to those precepts, in all the backwater strongholds Islam has  created, so be it.  But once they start trying to impose that doctrine—demanding special treatment, and a separate code of laws—on other cultures, they ought expect to be reviled.  Any threat of them propagating it must be resisted by all and any means necessary; to not  do so is cultural suicide. So, even if the majority of Muslims in America are, in most respects, just like any other immigrant population group,  the exceptions are deal killers. They, Muslims, are in a club identical to the Italian mafia—answerable to the most radical Islamo activist in the community, no matter how he interprets the Koran. Their choices are the same that people in Columbia, and now Mexico, have when the drug cartels want something.  The same choice a businessman has when  Joe Pesci says he wants to be a partner. Do what they want, or be dead.  Other than that, I have no problem with them.  Here's some Iranian women in 1960.  Ahem.

Turds ahead Cap'n

“ In the Democrat-held Senate McCain is the ‘model prisoner’ As seen   It is now clear that Sen. John S. McCain III (R.-Ariz.) has completed his transition from being the Senate’s “maverick” to becoming the upper body’s model prisoner. McCain was livid. He was so livid that the next morning he and Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R.-S.C.) came to the floor to denounce Paul and the other senators in the filibuster as “whacko birds.” It is not just that McCain is a snitch, running to the press or the Senate floor, whenever a rebellious conservative disturbs the good order and discipline of upper chamber. The son and grandson of Navy admirals now meets in secret with the warden, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.), to cook up new ways to undermine and thwart conservatives. McCain was always a sketchy character. But, what really turned him into the warden’s pet was the worldwide phenomenon of Sen. Randall H. Paul (R-Ky.) filibustering the on the Senate floor from just before lunch March 6 until 12:30 a.m., the next morning. [] Nobody expects different behavior from McCain, so he's pretty much just another turd in the alley.  But. The more I think about it, the more I'm inclined to believe that McCain picked Sarah Palin because he knew he was going to lose, and wanted a weak VP on the ticket he could blame.  Instead, picking Palin may be remembered as his only accomplishment, or  noble thing the man did in his entire public life. ”

New Jersey's Vichy Governor

“ Jersey Vichyssoise     Christie’s inner circle have taken the complaints seriously, fearing their implications ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

Their maneuvers have included huddles with Republican moneymen, off-the-record powwows with conservative journalists, and late-night conversations with past backers. [Full] The GOP seemed to have chosen Jeb Bush as their '16 nominee, so evidently there are those in the GOP hierarchy who don't think he can beat Hillary.  The Clintons think they have Obama's support, but know him well enough to be prepared for intrigue. Remember all the leaks about Barry's "birth right" that surfaced during  his duel with Hillary?  Obama does, and we all know whom the number one suspect was, don't we?  Christie, began currying favor with Obeelzebub by campaigning for him during the 2012 campaign.  While New Jersey was a real toss-up state.  And when Obama's name was MUD.  It was an epochal moment for him; even Ann Coulter began apologizing for her early swoon.  Christie then is the perfect GOP candidate, and will likely beat Jeb for the New York Times endorsement if he gets traction  The Times is critical, having selected every GOP nominee since 1988, based on their guess of who is likely the easiest to beat.  The whole thing is a charade.  The next good and honest U.S. president will take the oath with  the smell of beer and cordite permeating the air. Not something I want to happen, mind you; just the way it has to be now, IMO. Unless Sarah Palin can prevail. ”

“ CONNECTIONS Many Questions surrounding ... Al Jazeera America is the most ambitious American television news venture since Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes started the Fox News Channel in 1996. It faces some of the same obstacles that Fox eventually glided over — including blanket skepticism about whether distributors, advertisers and viewers will give it a chance. But that is where the parallels to other channels end, because Al Jazeera America is going against the grain of seemingly every trend in television news. “Viewers will see a news channel unlike the others, as our programming proves Al Jazeera America will air fact-based, unbiased and in-depth news,” said Ehab Al Shihabi, the channel’s acting chief executive, on a news conference call last week. He was explicit about what will be different, saying, “There will be less opinion, less yelling and fewer celebrity sightings.” [New York Times - Al Jazeera America Promises a More Sober Look at the News] Kennedy's "pound of flesh"(in 1988) was to illegally use his power to get even with Rupert Murdoch for publishing a series on the 1969 Chappaquiddick incident, and referring to him as "Fatso."   Kennedy's maneuver was cloaked in the argument that it was not in America's interest to have one man wielding so much media  influence.  If memory serves, Murdoch reached agreement to keep the Post by selling some television stations he owned.  What brings this to the forefront today is Al Gore's sale of his defunct Current cable property to al Qaeda— I mean al Jazeera—the public outlet for al Qaeda.  Excuse me, but would it be unfair to draw a parallel to that and, say, if  the NY Daily News was sold  to the German National Socialist Party in, say, August 1939?   Before Hitler had formally declared war on the world, but not before everyone (with half a brain) knew it was coming?  In this case, world Islam have formally declared it's intentions against non-believers.
