Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev’s off-air comments that Russian Presidents are given a secret file about extraterrestrials living among us created much media interest. Most news reports claimed that Medvedev was simply joking. His apparent reference to the Men In Black movie as a source of information on a super secret agency that monitors extraterrestrials on Earth was commonly cited as key evidence that he was in fact joking. The reasoning is that no political leader would refer reporters to a comedy to clarify national policy. It has now emerged that Medvedev was not referring to the Men in Black comedy after all, but to a recent Russian television documentary titled “Men in Black” that reveals many details about an extensive cover up of extraterrestrial life visiting Earth.
However, a more accurate translation of what Medvedev actually said about the Men in Black phenomenon was: “You can receive more detailed information having watched the documentary film of the same name.” So Medvedev was referring to a Russian “documentary film” titled Men in Black, not the Hollywood blockbuster by the same name...
Russian Men In Black (MIB) documentary, a number of prominent UFO cases in Russia and the USA are discussed. The Roswell UFO crash is covered, along with a number of extraterrestrial abduction cases, and UFOs disabling nuclear weapons facilities. The documentary examines testimony that extraterrestrial bases have been established on Earth, and that some are in restricted US military areas with the full knowledge of the Pentagon. The documentary even goes on to seriously discuss President Eisenhower’s alleged meeting with extraterrestrials, where agreements were reached with some of the visitors giving them permission to take some of the Earth’s resources in exchange for advanced technology...

LOL,
That picture updates each time you refresh it.
Oh, the fun Shakespeare could have had with Radar...
The meat sounds good. I’ll remember that if I ever get any that’s vacuum-sealed. The in-laws sent us Omaha Steaks for Christmas one year.
DP went to pick up Tom and Elen and their friend at church at 8:00, and nobody’s returned yet. They were dropping the friend off, but she just lives 5 minutes away. I wonder if he noticed they didn’t have Pat with them and thought Pat was lost in the church, instead of safely at home watching “The Empire Strikes Back.”
Ah, he would have enjoyed it and drawn mirth and mayhem from it to weave his tapestries.
Nope, it turns out DP was just visiting, first with a police officer who helps lead the church youth group, and then with Elen’s friend’s father.
I was kind of hoping he’d turn up with wine, but since he didn’t, I’m going to bed. Maybe I’ll stay awake long enough to get the last load of wash in the dryer.
Safe at home?
Or wrapped in a pocket dimension hidden skillfully just out of sight in the corner doing who knows what abominitious science experiments with pocket lint and soda?
*thunderclap*
Well, yes, that’s possible, too. He was kind of out of sight in the schoolroom, reciting the dialogue along with the movie.
For a second I had a mental image of Pat reciting Wagnerian opera interspersed with Lovecraftian writ.
At least George Lucas didn’t write the script for “The Empire Strikes Back.”
Was that just a mental image or where you seeing through a fold in space-time?
OUCH!
Heading to bed.
Yes, george may have had an idea initially.
Somewhere between Jar Jar Binks and Ewoks he lost his mind.
Possibly the latter.
Hopefully not.
Brunhild summoned Cthulhu style doesn’t look so good.
Probably just in Darks’ mind. Pat likes “Carmen,” but he has yet to express an interest in Wagner or Lovecraft.
At least, not in front of me.
And with that, goodnight moon. My lights are going out.
I've been charged with controlling the weather for Earth and Mars.
I'd use the same techniques for both, mirrors.
Mars needs more energy, so I'd focus the rays. But Earth may need some amelioration of the incident sunlight, so I'd deflect some of that intensity.
Hurricanes, as an example, are heat engines. I would use judiciously and surgically applied heat to moderate their activity.
The Earth component of my weather control would direct water from Antarctica to parched deserts, and a recent innovation could have it doubling for the supposed effect of contrails. White puffy condensation can provide a bit of shade to cool things off.
So, basically and in all honesty, I'm talking smoke and mirrors.
If you’re going to make your own soap, or soap to sell or give away, I strongly suggest that you look up soap making on the Internet, and join groups that discuss soapmaking. Buy the books that they recommend and read, read, read about it.
You can learn by doing, but if you have to discard a ruined batch, it can be an expensive and messy proposition.
The instructions I posted are totally bare bones, and you will have to learn a bit about chemistry and the properties of the oils that you use, such as their saponification values.
You will have to calculate how much lye to use, depending on the oils, which have different “sap” values. There are lists of sap values online. After you master that, you can also go online and use the many lye calculators that are available to check your numbers.
It takes time, study, and good friends on the soap-discussion boards, but if it’s something you want to do, the work is definitely worth it.
That first perfect batch (which takes about 6 weeks to cure if you use cold process) will be your reward when the smooth, creamy suds and lather appear as you wash your hands with it for the first time.
If you go hot process, you can use the soap the next day, but I prefer cold process because it’s easier to pour into individual molds.
Please excuse: every once in a while, Shakespeare and Chaucer haunt me. I welcome them, but I hesitate to mention it to anyone.
Please excuse my illiteracy, but your world views and literature are a heck of a lot reader-friendlier than Chaucer’s stuff. I appreciate your efforts!
I applaud your courage. I find tornadoes really scary, but I prefer the very scary stuff to the things that some of our fellow hoomins would visit upon me. I’ll take my chances w/Mother Nature. Sounds goofy, but it’s a personal preference.
Nonsense. Anyone w/an iota of discrimination would trust you not only w/the climate, but with anything else meaningful.
C130’s drop bags of cement? Wow!
