Democrat Delegate Stacey Plaskett, the Virgin Islands’ non-voting member of Congress, garnered headlines recently when it came to light that she took direction from sex offender Jeffrey Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing.
Her relationship with Epstein is especially notable because Plaskett herself had “private nude images” of her stolen by her own ex-staffers, who used them to attempt to sabotage her re-election campaign. The husband of one of the culprits was, like Epstein, later found dead.

First, they canceled the Little Crappy Shops (LCS) program as not fit for purpose. Now it's the Constellation class Frigate program that gets the axe:
By 2024, the first ship of the class was 36 months behind schedule, with the second already considered two years behind before its keel was even laid. The plan, as I mentioned before, was to retain roughly 85% of the FREMM frigate design to expedite production, but by that point, the Constellation design retained only about 15% of its parent design. This caused a cascade of other issues, like the need to write new code for a reported 95% of the ship’s control system software due to deviations from the FREMM design it came from, and the incorporation of new equipment and systems.
The Constellation-class frigate seemed to suffer from a classic case of scope-creep, a term used to describe a program that keeps seeing new requirements tacked onto it as it develops, resulting in cost overruns and delays. As one lawmaker put it, the Navy kept chasing a 100% solution to the point where they ended up with 0% of the ship being delivered.
There's more here from the Tech Press, so this is getting attention.
As Yogi Berra once said, if you don't know where you're going you'll end up somewhere else. SECNAV should see to it that the Program Management Office finds itself somewhere else - preferably not working for the Navy. Pour encourager les autres ...

A woman being questioned told officers the person who initiated the shooting from the sidewalk was her boyfriend, Keontay Miller. She told them that she and Miller had an argument, and Miller had slapped her. Others tried to get Miller to leave, and he threw one of them down a flight of stairs.
The woman told officers that Miller left, then came back yelling that he was going to shoot her. Another person present said Miller was standing on the southwest corner sidewalk when he pulled a gun and opened fire at the apartment's balcony, with no care for the adults or children that were inside.
The affidavit says another person told officers they fired shots back at Miller in self defense, and that Miller kept shooting as he made his way to the car he was seen leaving in. That person then told officers where they would find their gun in a backpack. Officers took the gun and the casings they found.

Chainsaws are wonderful tools for wood cutting. But chainsaws are not perfect. Chainsaws are heavy. Chainsaws are noisy. Chainsaws require supplies of fuel and bar oil. These limitations can be problematic during field use. The Silky KatanaBoy Professional 700 presents an outstanding manual alternative to chainsaws for cutting trees and branches up to 14 inches in diameter. The saw is light and compact, weighing just four pounds and folding to a length of 33 inches. It creates so little noise that hearing protection is not required. It requires no supplies except the muscles of its user. And it uses those …

“What ‘multiculturalism’ boils down to is that you can praise any culture in the world except Western culture – and you cannot blame any culture in the world except Western culture.” – Thomas Sowell
The post The Editors’ Quote Of The Day: appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.
'Earlier this year, Utah became the first state in the country to pass legislation allowing people to purchase and install small, portable solar panels that plug into a standard wall socket.
"When attached outside to the balcony or patio of a dwelling, such panels can provide enough power for residents to run free of charge, home appliances such as fridges, dishwashers, washing machines and wi-fi without spending money on electricity from the grid."
The output of the micro inverter is a 110VAC plug so the current goes into your existing wiring feeding anything plugged in to other outlets on that breaker.
Theoretically, anything that can feed power back into the grid needs an interrupter to protect electric utility workers in the event their side is down. It appears these changes in state laws would allow PV systems producing low voltages to be hooked up to the house wiring. This is attractive for its simplicity and relatively low cost.
Anyone have any knowledge to share?

C Rations were an individual field ration used in the US military during the 1940s, 50s, and 60s. The Army was still using the when I went through basic in 1973. Simultaneously beloved and loathed by the troops, it was what you had to eat in the field. Twelve meals to a box, a mixed carton of joy and loathing.
The worst meal in most troops opinion was the Ham and Limas. It came with a dessert of fruitcake. Both were inedible, but this guy liked it. Each C Ration came with an accessory pack that contained toilet paper, a heat tab, paper matches, cigarettes, and a toothpick.
My favorite C was Poork Patties in gravy. One day on a break I was hungry, so I took out the Pork Patty can, lit a heat tab and was merrily heating the tin when the Drill Sergeant wandered by.
Him: "Private, what are you eating?"
Me: "Pork Patties in gravy."
Him: "When was that packed? Look on the bottom of the can."
I lifted the can to look at the bottom. "Drill Sergeant, this says 1948."
Him: "Damn, Private, that pig has been dead longer than you have been alive. I'm going to watch you close te rest of the day."
The Army later came out with LRRP rations, which were totally inedible, then followed those with MRE rations, which are still used today. If I had my choice, I'd pick C Rations every time.
Sunday music here is usually classical. So why Greg Lake (from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer fame)? Well, Lake sampled Sergei Prokofiev's famous sleigh ride from his Lieutenant Kijé suite. You almost certainly know this music well enough to hum along (it starts about a minute into the video).
There's quite a lot of classic rock that really should be labeled "Classical Rock" ...
Officials say a man named Lorenz Miller forced his way inside one of the apartments by climbing onto a second floor balcony. Once inside the apartment, he was shot multiple times by another man who was inside the bedroom with the person who lived there.
Miller was taken to the hospital to be treated for his injuries. Police say he survived, and has now been charged with unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling.

Anne Murray was huge on country radio in the 1970s and 80s, but has sadly dropped off the airways since then. Maybe it was because she was more "Old COuntry" than the new wave of the 90s and beyond.
That's a pitty, as she had a wonderful voice. Somewhat reminiscent of Julie Andrews, at least in this Christmas classic.
Yesterday we focused on leftovers. That big ham was sliced off the bone. The bone is in the freezer for a pot of beans later this year, the ham will go sandwiches or omelets, or any other recipe where applicable.
The turkey carcass was boiled for stock and the leftover meat will go into a gumbo tomorrow.
The other odd bits will either be eaten or discarded. One of the grandkids brought a big pot of queso dip. I'm going to re-heat it in another hour and eat it over fried potatoes.
The weather outside is miserable. Cold, clammy, rainy, the kind of cold that seeps into your bones. It is altogether a good day to build a fire. Those cheese fries are going to taste good later on. Belle is looking at the weather report, and saying that a venison chili is in our future for Monday.
I see that folks north of us across this great country are having a rather intense winter storm. As a young man, I lived in the snowy North for three years and snow lost all of its appeal for me. I'll deal with the oppressive heat of summer, but I don't care if I ever see snow again.
Right now, though, I need to figure out how to save all that cooking oil in the turkey fryer. I have four gallons to deal with.

gunfire around 9:35 PM. Officers later learned the victim had been shot

27th Avenue left two men wounded, one of them critical, The Mercury News reported.
Following several national debt defaults (in 1557, 1575, and 1596), on November 29, 1596, King Philip II of Spain ordered the devaluation of the country’s silver coinage. This included the famed Spanish Ocho Reales de Plata (“Pieces of Eight”) silver coin. By the 1630s, most coin mintings had 20 to 30% less silver than previously required. This debasement, combined with their sovereign debt, eventually led to the decline of the Spanish empire. — On November 29, 1890, the first US Army – US Navy football game was played, at West Point.
