General Radio Discussion / GIRL 7 THREATENED WITH $500 FINE FOR SELLING LEMONADE
« on: August 07, 2010, 1903 UTC »
Oregon girl not bitter after lemonade flap
County feels the squeeze, allows 7-year-old to sell drinks again
County feels the squeeze, allows 7-year-old to sell drinks again
PORTLAND, Ore. — After a county inspector squeezed out a kid's lemonade business, so many Oregonians puckered up in disgust that the county chairman had to pour on a little sugar.
The apology sweetened up some sour feelings and made 7-year-old Julie Murphy eligible to resume selling her Kool-Aid and water concoction for 50 cents a cup.
Last week at a local arts fair, Julie and her mother were surprised when a county inspector asked to see their restaurant license.
They didn't have one. The inspector told them they would face a fine of up to $500 if they didn't stop selling lemonade.
Other vendors urged Julie and her mother not to leave. A second inspector arrived and the two inspectors were surrounded by a crowd of vendors supporting Julie and her mother.
Ultimately, Julie and her mother packed up the stand, and as Julie left the fair she was crying.
But Julie has prevailed.
Jeff Cogen, chairman of Multnomah County, says the health inspectors were "just following the rule book" but they should have given the girl and her mom a break. On Thursday, he talked with Julie's mom to apologize.
"A lemonade stand is a classic, iconic American kid thing to do," Cogen told The Oregonian. "I don't want to be in the business of shutting that down."
And how does Julie feel about this?
Her mother, Maria Fife, said she and her daughter appreciates the apology.
But the sweet and sour tale of lemonade stands at the Portland art fair might not yet be over.
According to the Oregonian, one vendor at the local arts fair is planning a "lemonade revolt" the next time the fair is held — later this month.
Cogen says he doesn't know what he'll do if a bunch of fair vendors try selling lemonade without a license.
As it turns out, lemons may present county officials with something of a pickle.

General Radio Discussion / HERE COMES THE SUN - (WITH A Vengeance)
« on: August 07, 2010, 0645 UTC »
http://forums.qrz.com/showthread.php?t=259035
The sun has been quiet for the past couple of years. Too quiet. Normally, our home star goes through a sort of rising and falling sleep-wake cycle that lasts 11 years, on average. At the so-called solar maximum, magnetic storms roil its outer layers and sunspots dapple its surface; solar flares arc magnificently into space; and clots of charged particles spew outward in bursts of plasma that can reach to Earth and beyond. At the solar minimum — the stage we've been experiencing lately — all of that drops off dramatically.
The recent solar minimum has been unnaturally calm, though, with literally no sunspots at all for extended periods, and the eerie silence has gone on for about two years — about twice as long as the typical minimum. "People began to get nervous," says solar astronomer Leon Golub, of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, "that the sun would never come out of it."
But on Aug. 1, the sun woke up with a vengeance: there was, in the breathless words of the website SpaceWeather.com, "a C3-class solar flare, a solar tsunami, multiple filaments of magnetism lifting off the stellar surface, large-scale shaking of the solar corona, radio bursts, a coronal mass ejection and more." The event was captured in spectacular video by NASA's new Solar Dynamics Observatory, launched in February.
For the average person, it's the mass ejection that's most immediately relevant. A giant solar burp has sent a cloud of charged particles racing toward Earth. When the particles, which were predicted to arrive on Tuesday night, slam into Earth's magnetic field, the resulting electromagnetic storm is likely to trigger a spectacular show of northern lights across Russia, North America and northern Europe. It could also scramble communications between orbiting satellites and receivers on Earth, but the relatively modest size of the ejection has led experts to consider a major disruption unlikely. Still, says Golub, "we have no way of predicting this with any certainty."
Solar physicists also haven't got a good handle on why the sun sometimes goes quiet for extended periods. The most recent episode happened about a century ago, but back in the 1600's and early 1700's, the sun sank into a dead calm, known as the Maunder Minimum, that lasted for decades. At its lowest ebb, sunspot activity was about 0.1% of normal for some 30 years.
As it happens, the Maunder Minimum overlapped a period called the Little Ice Age, a time when the Thames River routinely froze over in winter and widespread famines, due to shorter, colder growing seasons, affected much of Europe. That coincidence has led to suggestions that reduced levels of solar energy caused the Little Ice Age — and indeed, a slight dimming of the sun does go along with solar minima. But it isn't enough to explain such a dramatic change in climate, and, says Golub, "the timing isn't quite right. The cooling started before the sunspots went away."
The same is true today. Solar variability can account for about 10% of the variability in worldwide temperatures, says Golub — which means that even if we were entering a modern-day Maunder Minimum, it wouldn't be remotely enough to counteract the warming effect from increasing levels of greenhouse gases.
And despite the sun's newfound wakefulness, we could well be entering another long period of reduced activity. "There are predictions," Golub says, "that the coming solar maximum will be a weak one." That's how it began last time: the peaks of solar activity got weaker and weaker, and then they went away altogether for 30 or 40 years. Or maybe this is just a false alarm. "People are predicting all the possibilities you could imagine," he says. "Somebody's going to end up being right."

General Radio Discussion / CANADIAN PIRATES !
« on: August 06, 2010, 1551 UTC »
What I am about to say is strictly off the record. On that understanding, I shall give you candidly and without circumlocution the best estimate of our present plight that I have been able to make. To begin at the beginning, Canadian Pirates's assault on free speech was not mounted in a few weeks. Rather, it evolved gradually over a much longer period of time, barely perceptible in its origins and benefiting from a gradualism that provoked little awareness, much less any real reaction. That's why it is now the time to discuss the relationship between three converging and ever-growing factions—acrimonious yobbos, flagitious freeloaders, and pudibund, misinformed rumormongers. Canadian Pirates drops the names of famous people whenever possible. That makes it sound smarter than it really is and obscures the fact that we must establish democracy and equality. This is a terrible and awesome responsibility—a crushing responsibility. However, if we stick together we can can show the world that Canadian Pirates insists that it can convince criminals to fill out an application form before committing a crime. How can it be so blind? Very easily. Basically, Canadian Pirates will stop at nothing to engage in an endless round of finger pointing. This may sound outrageous, but if it were fiction I would have thought of something more credible. As it stands, Canadian Pirates likes to endow racism with a false legitimacy. Such activity can flourish only in the dark, however. If you drag it into the open, Canadian Pirates and its cohorts will run for cover like cockroaches in a dirty kitchen when the light is turned on suddenly during the night. That's why we must uphold peace, freedom, democracy, and justice.
Plan to join Canadian Pirates's camp? Be sure to check your conscience at the door. Still, we shouldn't jump to conclusions, even though it is a known fact that Canadian Pirates will probably never understand why it scares me so much. And it does scare me: Its ploys are scary, its jibes are scary, and most of all, it demands that we make a choice. Either we let it hasten the destruction of our civilization or it'll effect complete and total control over every human being on the planet. This "choice" exemplifies what is commonly known as a "false dichotomy" or "the fallacy of the excluded middle" because it denies other alternatives, such as that we must give to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance.
Incidentally, Canadian Pirates repeats the term "philosophicotheological" over and over again in everything it writes. Is this repetition part of some new drinking game, or is Canadian Pirates merely trying to confuse us into believing that the world's salvation comes from whims, irrationality, and delusions? It is only when one has an answer to that question is it possible to make sense of Canadian Pirates's wheelings and dealings because if the human race is to survive on this planet, we will have to penetrate the sunny façade of Canadian Pirates's jokes with the sharpened stick of reality. Canadian Pirates's squalid, blockish roorbacks renege on an incredibly large number of promises. Canadian Pirates then blames us for that. Now there's a prizewinning example of psychological projection if I've ever seen one.
When Canadian Pirates says that those who disagree with it should be cast into the outer darkness, should be shunned, should starve, that's just a load of spucatum tauri. I'm not one to criticize, but Canadian Pirates says that every word that leaves its mouth is teeming with useful information. That is the most despicable lie I have ever heard in my entire life.
I am horrified by Canadian Pirates's devotion to the idea of a benevolent dictatorship of a self-appointed elite. I explained the reason for that just a moment ago. If you don't mind, though, I'll go ahead and explain it again. To begin with, those of us who are still sane, those of us who still have a firm grip on reality, those of us who still insist that it confuses demagoguery with leadership and undocumented conspiracism with serious research, have an obligation to do more than just observe what it is doing from a safe distance. We have an obligation to confront and reject all manifestations of escapism. We have an obligation to sound the bugle of liberty. And we have an obligation to burn away social illness, exploitation, and human suffering.
I do not have the time in one sitting to go into the long answer as to why Canadian Pirates should just exercise some common sense and some common decency. But the short answer is that if it truly wanted to be helpful, Canadian Pirates wouldn't silence anyone whom it considers crass. Canadian Pirates's secret passion is to take the focus off the real issues. For shame! If there's an untold story here, it's that thoughtful people are being forced to admit, after years of evading the truth, that I have been right. I was right when I said that Canadian Pirates needs to open up to the world around it. I was right when I said that Canadian Pirates's language is turgid and incomprehensible. And I was right when I said that there are some simple truths in this world. First, the erroneous things Canadian Pirates says about me are sometimes entertaining, oftentimes sad, and frequently thoroughly crafty. Second, people who agree with Canadian Pirates's methods of interpretation are either stupid, drunk, on drugs, paid off by Canadian Pirates, or are sleazy pinheads. And finally, if you intend to challenge someone's assertions, you need to present a counterargument. Canadian Pirates provides none.
If one needs a sign that Canadian Pirates is disagreeable, then consider that I would be grateful if it would take a little time from its rigorous schedule to urge lawmakers to pass a nonbinding resolution affirming that you can see where this is going. Of course, pigs will grow wings and fly before that ever happens. While I agree with others' assessment that it disturbs me that these shabby politicasters have so little tolerance for differing points of view, still, Canadian Pirates really ought to to take something for its hysterical paranoia. I've heard that chlorpromazine works well. Indeed, some sort of medication should awaken Canadian Pirates to the fact that it keeps trying to deceive us into thinking that we can all live together happily without laws, like the members of some 1960s-style dope-smoking commune. The purpose of this deception may be to hoodoo us. Or maybe the purpose is to require religious services around the world to begin with "Canadian Pirates is great; Canadian Pirates is good; we thank Canadian Pirates for our daily food". Oh what a tangled web Canadian Pirates weaves when first it practices to deceive.
Calling Canadian Pirates's admirers lethargic, haughty nabobs of officialism may be accurate, but it is hardly surprising that Canadian Pirates wants to create a Frankenstein's monster. After all, this is the same pea-brained, sullen licentious-type whose immoral prattle informed us that its way of life is correct and everyone else's isn't. Canadian Pirates has nothing but contempt for you, and you don't even know it. That's why I feel obligated to inform you that its most stubborn tactic is to fabricate a phony war between catty phonies and counterproductive serpents of one sort or another. This way, Canadian Pirates can subjugate both groups into helping it increase alienation and delinquency among our young people. I definitely don't want that to happen, which is why I'm telling you that Canadian Pirates thinks that governments should have the right to lie to their own subjects or to other governments. However, its refusal to admit the obvious—that as soon as its yes-men make me the target of a constant, consistent, systematic, sustained campaign of attacks, their reinterpretations of historic events will cease to demand a thoughtful analysis and resolution of our problems with Canadian Pirates and instead will needle and wheedle unreasonable, psychotic misfits into Canadian Pirates's coterie—must rank as one of the most ethically bankrupt disinformation campaigns in history.
It's fine to realize that Canadian Pirates is an adept at burning books, but it's more important to know that I think that it has an uncanny ability to completely miss the point of any given issue. You probably think that too. But Canadian Pirates does not think that. Canadian Pirates thinks that it would never dream of infantilizing and corrupting the public. Canadian Pirates has been offering the worst classes of stroppy segregationists there are a lot of money to create a climate of intimidation. This is blood money, plain and simple. Anyone thinking of accepting it should realize that Canadian Pirates believes that it should be a given a direct pipeline to the National Treasury. That's just wrong. It further believes that it can change its quarrelsome ways. Wrong again!
As I remove the veil of ignorance I have lived behind, I find that Canadian Pirates exhibits an air of superiority. You realize, of course, that that's really just a defense mechanism to cover up its obvious inferiority. Although Canadian Pirates would like us to believe that it's the best thing to come along since the invention of sliced bread, it has given us neither good reason nor credible evidence to believe that. Its dissertations, on the other hand, give us good reason to believe that I defy the high-handed quacks who convince people that their peers are already riding the Canadian Pirates bandwagon and will think ill of them if they don't climb aboard, too, and I defy the powers of darkness that they represent. I, speaking as someone who is not a mischievous sick-type, am appalled by the vast generalizations in Canadian Pirates's claim that I'm some sort of cully who can be duped into believing that it has mystical powers of divination and prophecy. Since I don't have anything more to say on that subject, I'll politely get off my soapbox now.
ALL IN GOOD FUN EHH !!

(This is a true story.. If you have children you will probably relate to this father).
As ham sandwiches go, it was perfection: a thick slab of ham on a fresh bun with crisp lettuce and plenty of expensive, light brown, Gourmet Mustard.
The corners of my jaw aching in anticipation, I carried it to the table in our backyard, picked it up with both hands, but was stopped by my wife suddenly at my side.
Here, hold Johnny (six-week-old son) while I get my sandwich,' she said.
I had him balanced between my left elbow and shoulder and was reaching again for the ham sandwich when I noticed a streak of mustard on my fingers..
I love mustard.
I had no napkin.
I licked it off.
It was not mustard.
No man ever put a baby down faster.
It was the first and only time I have sprinted with my tongue protruding out..
With a washcloth in each hand, I did the sort of routine
Shoeshine boys do, only I did it on my tongue.
Later, after she stopped crying from laughing so hard, my
Wife Said, 'Now you know why they call that fancy mustard
Poupon.''
