Certain images pop into your head when you think about some professions, and these images aren't always so favorable. The reason they come to mind is probably not because of your personal experience with a particular profession, but your impression is instead based on the way these professions are portrayed on television, in movies, or on what you know about the few bad seeds that are present in every field of work. Let's take a look at why we hate some professions and learn the truth about them. Who knows ... you may wind up finding your future career, once you know the facts about it. 01 Dentists A trip to the dentist usually means you* will have a little bit of discomfort, if ...
The 'outrageous' 40-year-old film that predicted the future

When Network was released in November 40 years ago, the poster warned audiences to prepare themselves “for a perfectly outrageous motion picture”. The film was written by Paddy Chayevsky (Marty, The Hospital) and directed by Sidney Lumet (Serpico, Dog Day Afternoon), both of whom made their names in television in the 1950s, and both of whom believed that the industry, and the world, had been in decline ever since.Network was their furious howl of protest. It was a triumphant black comedy, winning four Oscars, being nominated for two more, and going on to be held in ever higher acclaim. In 2006, the Writers Guilds of America chose Chayevksy’s screenplay as one of the 10 best ...
A Mexican Town OVERTHREW Their Local Government And Things Are Going Great

The town of Cherán was once plagued by people claiming the right to rule over them and now they live peaceful lives free of violence. After the town of 20,000 people in Mexico decided to take matters into their own hands by kicking out politicians, cops, and criminals, the now completely voluntary society is running great and the people finally have freedom and peace. Cherán is now run by autonomous groups of armed individuals acting on a voluntary basis, with no one making laws, but no one harming each other either. Choosing to work together instead of submitting to the authoritarian regime previously claiming ownership over the town and those ...

A Strange Evolution: When Fundagelicals Loved the ACLU
Post Date: 2018-06-30 09:00:42 by Gatlin
32 Comments
Long, long ago, when I was a wee bright-eyed Pentecostal lass, I had a run-in with an anti-theist college professor. I wrote about it a few years ago, but I always intended to come back to that story because there was a part I hadn’t mentioned at the time. You see, my evangelical peers had an instant–and unanimous–response to the situation when I told them about it. They wanted me to go talk to the ACLU. Does that shock you? Surprise you? It should. I’ll tell you about it today. Today, Lord Snow Presides over another strange evolution in fundagelicalism.(Scott Granneman, CC-SA.) Set The Wayback Machine. As I said in that earlier post, it must have been 1988 or 1989. I ...
Libertarian Songs [Full Thread]

On social media (such as Twitter, Facebook, Google+) I often post a libertarian song of the day. I didn’t really think anyone really cared or paid attention. That is until I didn’t do so for a few days, then I had all kinds of people asking if I was OK! Below is a list of songs I believe have at least some libertarian (small l) spirit to them. Yes, some of these do have swear words and adult concepts. This list is far from complete. I just add to it as I do my ‘libertarian song of the day’ thing (and I’m not gonna bother putting older ones I posted until I get to them again). I have also included the link to each artists website. This is my way to give credit where ...
What Purpose Do Mosquitoes Serve?
Post Date: 2018-06-24 13:18:46 by Justified

Mosquitoes seem to serve no purpose other to annoy us. But from the mosquitoes' point of view, their purpose is to make more mosquitoes. From the point of view of birds, fishes, frogs and other animals that eat them, their purpose is to provide a source of food. But does the world actually need mosquitoes? It's hard to find a reason. An article by Janet Fang in the July 2010 magazine Nature asked scientists what the world would be like without mosquitoes. Most of them thought that we wouldn't miss the annoying little creatures. Disease among humans would decrease, if the mosquitoes that spread malaria, dengue fever, encephalitis and other illnesses disappeared. In the ...

Poster Comment:Click on the link that was sent to me. Just when you think dumb has hit bottom,goobers like this show up. The good news for him is he is due to quickly loose the excess 200+ lbs he has been carrying on his new prison diet,and he will no longer have food stamps to buy Twinkies by the crate. He will,of course,continue to live in pubic housing,though.

Procol Harum - Conquistador // Denmark - 2006 (LIVE)
Post Date: 2018-04-11 12:21:08 by Liberator
0 Comments
Spectacular stirring rendition of Procol Harem's 'Conquistador', featuring a a tight Danish orchestra from 2016 -- nearly 45 years after the original. Of note, the studio album rendition did not originally feature the orchestra section was re-released as a live 1972 version (similar to this) and featuring the London Symphony Orchestra. That was the rendition widely played on radio. Gary Brooker's soulful vocals remained largely unchanged after all this time. This classic ditty was always under-appreciated; Musically, it has everything. Poster Comment:
Latest Internet Prank Is Tricking People Into Putting Aluminum Foil Into The Microwave

The latest viral internet prank is somehow tricking people into putting a ball of aluminum foil in their microwaves. The sad truth is people are trying it and it could cause an explosion and fire in your house. We feel like we shouldn’t have to remind people of this, but then again we also had to tell people not to snort condoms or ingest a Tide pod, so you know 2018 has already scraped the bottom of all the barrels, or so we’d hoped. But alas, we were wrong. People are putting balls of foil in their microwaves. The newest internet prank is a tweet urging people to microwave a ball of aluminum foil for three minutes. According to IFL Science, it seems ...

On January 2018, the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) hosted three orchestral concerts called 'Duellen - Morricone trækker først' (The Dual - Morricone draws first) which included some of the soundtrack from various western and gangster movies. This is their version of some of the music from the western classic: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. The concert was hosted by Kristian Leth and conducted by Sarah Hicks. The performance was orchestrated by The Danish National Symphony Orchestra (DR Symfoniorkester) with help from The Danish Concert Choir (DR Koncertkoret).

Ghost Riders in the Sky Steyn's Song of the Week AC-130 Spectre Gunship Theme Song Exactly one week ago, at the Academy Awards, Best Actress winner Frances McDormand put the phrase "inclusion rider" into general circulation - and Matthew McWilliams, a first-day Founding Member of The Mark Steyn Club, wrote to propose one of those all-star medleys the Oscars used to do so well: Perhaps, Inclusion Rider (by Traffic), Inclusion Riders on the Storm (by The Doors), Midnight Inclusion Rider (by the Allman Brothers Band) and Low Inclusion Rider (by War). I'm open to other suggestions. Fellow Club member Bob Belvedere took up the challenge: All good choices. Perhaps, also: CC ...

Trump pardons Kristian Saucier, former sailor jailed for submarine pictures
Post Date: 2018-03-10 14:42:50 by Gatlin

President Trump issued the second pardon of his presidency Friday to former Navy sailor Kristian Saucier, who learned the news while driving a garbage truck, the only job he could find with a felony conviction. Saucier was sentenced to a year in prison during the 2016 campaign for taking pictures inside a nuclear submarine. Trump invoked his case repeatedly on the campaign trail, saying he was “ruined” for doing “nothing” compared to Hillary Clinton. Still, Trump allowed Saucier to serve his full prison sentence. He was released in September and returned to the Vermont home he shares with his wife Sadie and their two-year-old daughter. Saucier, now 31, was 22 years ...

Tweet You will never see videos like the one below ever again…enjoy. Via Zerohedge… Earlier this month we reported that amid the brave new world of sexual harassment lawsuits, #MeToo, social justice warriors, consent forms and rage over the “patriarchy,” Formula 1 and its FAI ruling body has decided to ban the use of promotional models, known as “grid girls,” from its events because they don’t “resonate with [the] brand values [of F1] and clearly is at odds with modern day societal norms.” Now, the allegedly “demeaning” practice of showcasing scantily-clad women at testosterone-filled events, is spilling out out from the ...
Thug Says Threat To Kill Cops Was Harmless Joke, Judge Slaps Grin Off His Face In 2 Words
Post Date: 2018-01-27 01:17:47 by Gatlin

When a Black Lives Matter thug was arrested for calling for people to “riot” and “start killing cops,” he pleaded with the court to let him go because it was only a joke. However, as soon as the judge heard his claim, he wiped the smirk off the thug’s face with 2 simple words. After claiming that his call for people to “start killing cops” wasn’t serious, Darryl Hibbler (left) discovered that the judge didn’t share his sense of humor. (Photo Credit: Darryl Hibbler/Facebook, Screenshot/YouTube) As the political left continues to divide our nation with its destructive identity politics, fringe special interest groups gain momentum and drive the ...
