Specialist Insignias must be the new space math:
Specialist E-4 = three stripes plus one up arrow.

And gender equality hints that up arrow means "men",
down arrow means "women" ... with bow & arrow
suggesting "transgender".

"Students at Pennsylvania university are warned they could be punished

Off the record ...
emotive nouns (and adjectives) are becoming popular
to describe those who mandate preferred pronouns.

This is unintentional Commentary Rorschach

"Chris Cuomo has been accused of sexual harassment by his former ABC boss who claims he squeezed her buttock
upon greeting her in a bar - before he later apologized saying he was 'ashamed' of his behavior."

Office etiquette can be so confusing!
While acceptable to kiss a buttock that's your boss,
even squeezing it later is still a social taboo!

"(Afghanistan) will be ruled under strict Islamic law and return to executions and cutting off hands."

This may be acceptable punishment for a crime,

many of which are blessed by the same law.

"Whoopi .... said anyone who doesn't agree with black national anthem needs to be 're-educated' "

The words of this anthem are positive* but popular title/description ("Black National Anthem")
directly associates this anthem with one race - not with all races in the U.S. Even contrasting
this anthem with the U.S.anthem at football games confirms this racial separation!

Presentation of this inspirational anthem will need to be more inclusive
in order for it to become a "national" anthem (IMO).

I enjoyed reading about the Marble gravestone that has been missing over a hundred years.
http://board.1111angels.com/viewtopic.p ... 35#p213935
Even though I know the passed on owner has most likely moved past worrying about human belongings it still makes me smile to know all is as it should be now. It's a good story with a happy ending and we need more of those in these somewhat depressing times.

Thanks Rod

One day, Max decided that God was responsible for equipment "down below" and prayed for explanation. God said "Don't ask me - ask your parents!" Of course, the parents said "Don't ask us - ask your grandparents!" Soon thereafter a genealogist was consulted who explained "When your family's gene pool was being created, you were just given the short end of the stick." Max(ine) complained "But I didn't want a stick!"

"The more people tossing a coin, with a 50 per cent chance of surviving each year after they turn 110,
the more we can expect that someone will have a lucky streak and get to the age of 130."

Intriguing that people live longer and coins may not (re: cryptocurrency).
And now logic suggests that the fewer coins owned the longer your life.

The Chocolate Gambit

At the end of each day, place the last coin you received in a box.
Replace it the next day (or whenever) with your next "last coin".
This will be the last coin that you ever owned.

To upscale this spooky gambit, buy bitcoins with all of the
last coins that were replaced (or treat yourself to nibbles
of quality dark chocolate, purchased with those coins).

To fatten your gambit, choose the largest value coin
from your current change and call that the last coin ...
and do this every day

Hey Rod,

(canned tuna, mashed white beans, olive oil, lemon juice,
spices and served with leafy celery sticks; $ today).

This sounds like something good to add to the U B Cooking recipe index, eh? What do you think the carb level might be for that? It's all about carbs for me right now...sigh...

xxSandy

Sandy,

Seaside Hors D'oeuvre can be the recipe name - I'll post it soon.
I'm usually focused on less carbs, more fiber ... and this
with fish for protein and fish oil (another ingredient).

This recipe developed as personal encouragement
to eat more raw celery (a Paleo perspective).

"A museum lent an artist $84K — so he kept the money and called it 'art' "

"But when the Kunsten Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg took delivery of the recreated artworks ahead of the show, gallery staff made a surprising discovery: the frames were empty. Rather than being the handiwork of thieves, the loaned cash was missing thanks to Haaning himself, who says he is keeping the money -- in the name of art."

"For now, the museum is displaying 'Take the Money and Run' "

How fascinating that both of these "artists"
would be involved with negotiation about legal action,
but Haaning's impromptu "Art of the Steal" trumps
Trump's "Art of the Deal" by the empty frame
(or maybe not).

Hi Rod,
You wrote:

That's what appealed to me when I read your post. Anything that helps get the celery down is wanted in these parts.
I'll keep a look out for the recipe.
