Oklahoma is not OK

Remind me that I should not order cocktails, if ever I have the misfortune of visiting this place. I have had cocktails that have caused my head to explode; or so it seemed. My veins are another matter. Yikes!

Sounding Gongs and Clanging Cymbals

A present day economical expression, in context, is :Lip Service Though I speake with the tongues of men & of Angels, and haue not charity, I am become as sounding brasse [1] or a tinkling cymbal. 1 Corinthians 13:1  (1611 King James Bible) As I understand it, the Attorney General is the chief law enforcement officer in the State of California. CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 5  EXECUTIVE SEC. 13.  Subject to the powers and duties of the Governor, the Attorney General shall be the chief law officer of the State.  It shall be the duty of the Attorney General to see that the laws of the State are uniformly and adequately enforced.  The Attorney General shall have direct supervision over every district attorney and sheriff and over such other law enforcement officers as may be designated by law, in all matters pertaining to the duties of their respective offices, and may require any of said officers to make reports concerning...

Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces in the sea?

I was discussing an aviation condition called INCERFA (uncertainty) that is declared when an aircraft fails to report or arrive within 30 minutes (I thought or remembered 15 minutes) of schedule. Malaysian 370 (MH370) should have contacted the Vietnam Flight Information Region or Area Control (Ho Chi Minh) within 30 minutes of the last transmission (the one often mistakenly said to be "all right good night." ) So the communications are or were: Radar at 01:19:24: Malaysian Three Seven Zero contact Ho Chi Minh 120 decimal 9 [1] Good Night (this is the radio frequency 120.9) Cockpit at 01:19:29: Good Night Malaysian Three Seven Zero The next transmission at or before or about 01:50:00 should have been something like: Ho Chi Minh Good Morning Mayasian 370 level at 350 (a fight level, for these purposes roughly equivalent to 35,000 ft.) At around 01:50:00 or thereabouts, upon not hearing from MH370, Ho Chi Minh should have done something. This because the...

The Elephant is innocent. His lawyer said so or The woman did it or The Ode To Chris Christie.

This should be renamed Ode To Chris Christie. His Lawyer said so. All bad things were done by his Chief-of-Staff, Bridget Kelly; the woman scorned. Scorned by Bill Stepien, Christie's last campaign manager. Bastards could not resist including that detail in their report. Slut-sliming it is called. Woman is the nigger of the world Yes she is...think about it Woman is the nigger of the world Think about it...do something about it We make her paint her face and dance If she won't be a slave, we say that she don't love us If she's real, we say she's trying to be a man While putting her down, we pretend that she's above us Woman is the nigger of the world...yes she is If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with Woman is the slave of the slaves Ah, yeah...better scream about it We make her bear and raise our children And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen We tell her home is the only place she sh...

The Stop Rate Analyst's View

Thank you Dr. RH -----Original Message----- From: Cordner, Gary [ mailto:cordner@kutztown.edu ] Sent: Thursday, February 6, 2014 4:57 PM To: Richard Hylton Subject: RE: San Diego Stop Rates Hi Richard -- I will have to go back and re-read my own report to refresh my memory. In general, though, the kinds of data that we had, and analysis that we did, can document whether there are disparities in stops (although the "baseline" or "benchmark" issue is still a challenge in a border and tourist city like San Diego, so precise measurement of disparity is not so easy). What is hardest to establish, or "prove", is why? My best recollection is that we said we couldn't explain whether the disparities we found were due to so-called racial profiling or something else. Almost everybody has an opinion about what might cause it. We just admitted that we didn't have the evidence to make any scientifically valid claims about what caused it in S...
