Woke up, got outta bed
Author: Raine    Date: 06/19/2013 13:02:02

Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up, I noticed I was late

AHHHH here's a stub!

Slate's Skyjacker of the day.

Oh sweet irony!


The Upshot: TWA was roundly criticized for having permitted White to reach the top of the boarding stairs despite the fact that he wasn’t a ticketed passenger. But the airline rejected the notion of altering its airport security policies even the slightest bit. “How far can the airlines go?” replied a TWA spokesman when asked whether his employer planned to make any changes to its boarding procedures. “Restrict everyone from the terminal except those who have a ticket? Stop everyone from entering the airport area except those who have a ticket?” White, meanwhile, was ruled incompetent to stand trial and committed to a state mental hospital in Chester, Ill.

I;m going to be upstate. My time in NYC is pretty much limited to getting off the bus and onto the train.

Damn, I would've loved to meet up with you and the bebe.

Wow.


Then there is this from the latest entry:

The airlines long viewed hijacking as a manageable risk. They believed that if they acquiesced to all of a skyjacker’s demands, a favorable outcome was guaranteed—the passengers would go unharmed, the plane would be returned intact, and any ransom would likely be recovered after an arrest was made. Based on this assumption, the airlines were convinced that it was cheaper to endure periodic skyjackings than to implement invasive security at all of America’s airports. The Southern Airways Flight 49 incident revealed the folly of this mindset.

to the wiki!

Despite its name, the cereal contains neither grapes nor nuts; it is actually made from wheat and barley. Post believed that sucrose (which he called "grape sugar") formed during the baking process. This, combined with the nutty flavor of the cereal, is said to have inspired its name. Another explanation originates from employees at Post, who claim that the cereal got its name due to its resemblance to grape seeds, or grape "nuts." The cereal originally prepared by C. W. Post when he was developing the product was a batter that came out of the oven as a rigid sheet. He then broke the sheet into pieces and ran them through a coffee grinder to produce the "nut" sized kernels.

It contains malted barley and yeast - just like beer!

In fact - I've noticed on many occasions while brewing in the backyard just how much the mash smells like Grape Nuts.

Yes, one of those Duggars! The group’s president, Tony Perkins, announced late Monday that he has hired the eldest sibling of the “19 Kids and Counting” reality-TV dynasty as executive director of the lobbying arm FRC Action. Duggar is already moving wife Anna and their three kids — the youngest of whom is 2 weeks old — to the area.

I find it a little sick and disturbing tha tI have seen this fucking meme going around on FB:
TEL AVIV, Israel — The Israelis are developing an airport security
device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with
full-body scanners. It's an armored booth you step into that
will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you
may have on your person.

Israel sees this as a win-win situation for everyone, with
none of this crap about racial profiling.
It will also eliminate the costs of long and expensive trials.

You're in the airport terminal and you hear a
muffled explosion.
Shortly thereafter, an announcement:
“Attention to all standby passengers,
El Al is pleased to announce a seat available
on flight 670 to London . Shalom!”

and now this story?
At that time, authorities received information that Crawford had approached local Jewish organizations seeking out individuals who might offer assistance in helping him with a type of technology that could be used against people he perceived as enemies of Israel.


SEriously f8cked.

I'm sure that the only thing holding Mom Dugger's uterus inside is some string and sealing wax. Maybe a bit of duct tape.

I knew he did this interview, but waited to see the entire thing.

My fave part was this:

Tell us about DCHB's sister club, HOPS (Homebrew Outreach & Participation Sisterhood).

HOPS grew out of a realization among some of our established female members that new female members may feel intimidated by the majority male presence at meetings. Sadly, there is an assumption at times that a woman at a meeting is not a brewer, but simply the wife or girlfriend of a brewer. I’ve met numerous accomplished female brewers in my time (as well as knowledgeable beer judges), but I understand the atmosphere can be unintentionally discouraging. I think it’s fantastic that they decided to create what is really more of a subset club than a sister club of DC Homebrewers, since they are not exclusive. They have already done some great things like their recent SMaSH experiment. I expect we’ll see more great things out of them, and if it encourages more women to brew – all the better.
My friend Liz started HOPS.

ALBANY, N.Y. — An industrial mechanic with General Electric Co., who is also allegedly a member of the Ku Klux Klan, designed a deadly, mobile radiation device that he tried to sell to Jewish groups and then to a southern branch of the Ku Klux Klan, according to a federal complaint unsealed Wednesday in Albany.
