“We’re All Gonna Die”
Keith Richards – RIP Update
Here’s your Keith Richards RIP Update for March 2016: He still lives.
These others, not so much.
Daily Darwin – Cabin Fever, AGW Style
Darwin duly notes that this “fevered” camper was undoubtedly crazed by AGW-Climate Change-Global Warming (AKA: Weather). Otherwise, what the ‘effing hell would he have been doing on the roof of his cabin during avalanche season? Not only was he risking freezing the family jewels (not good for the old genome count), but burying them until Spring Thaw–which has been known to decrease the opportunity to pass those very genomes along.
Natural selection deems that some individuals serve as a warning to others. Who are we to disagree? The next generation, ever and anon, is descended from the survivors
America’s New Navy – 1800’s Style
In case you missed it because you were watching the Presidential Debates and exercising your right to vote in the Primaries, The Washington Times reports, “Pentagon orders commanders to prioritize climate change in all military actions“. We are so screwed….
The Pentagon is ordering the top brass to incorporate climate change into virtually everything they do, from testing weapons to training troops to war
planning to joint exercises with allies.
A new directive’s theme: The U.S. Armed Forces must show “resilience” and beat back the threat based on “actionable science.”
It says the military will not be able to maintain effectiveness unless the directive is followed. It orders the establishment of a new layer of bureaucracy — a wide array of “climate change boards, councils and working groups” to infuse climate change into “programs, plans and policies.”
The Turn of a Card
There’s going to be no more phony coin tosses for Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton. From none other than the NYTimes (even a broken clock gets it 2 times a day), “A Deck of Cards Could Determine Some Nevada Caucus Results.”
When in Las Vegas … what better way to break a tie in a political caucus than a deck of cards?
On Friday, the Nevada Democratic Party released answers to frequently asked questions ahead of the caucuses on Saturday.
The guidelines included the 250 caucus locations statewide…(and) also included what would happen if Hillary Clinton and Senator Bernie Sanders happen to tie on Saturday. Enter the deck of cards.
“In the rare circumstances where two or more presidential preference groups are tied for the loss or gain of a precinct-level delegate and have the same lowest or highest decimal,” the state party says, “groups must draw a single card from a deck of cards to break the tie. High card determines the winner.”
