“In doing so, I never assumed he would be running for Office again, and certainly not as a Democrat,” Trump wrote.

Trump said he granted Cuellar the pardon without expecting him to remain in Congress. He explained his reasoning for sparing Cuellar and his wife, Imelda, from a possible 20-year prison sentence after they were accused of accepting nearly $600,000 in bribes and laundering the funds.

He said he was swayed by “heart wrenching and beautiful” letters he received from their daughters begging for mercy for their parents. He shared the Nov. 12 letter from Christina and Catherine Cuellar, who suggested their father’s “independence and honesty” may have opened him up to an investigation in the first place.

is it different? every craft has secrets that are only sensible to practitioners there is a peter drucker line I like about 'codifying the craft techne' that I think of a lot now cooperative-individualism.org/drucker-pete...

what the early technical schools and the Encyclopédie
did, however, was perhaps more important.
They brought together, codified, and pub-
lished the techné, the craft mystery, as it had
been developed over millennia. They con-
verted experience into knowledge, ap-
prenticeship into textbook, secrecy into meth-
odology, doing into applied knowledge

she has too good of a radar to be taken in www.bbc.com/news/world-u... and is aware of the deep risks of dissonance in ways that some of her colleagues probably are not

"These are the tactics of abusers," Ms Ocasio-Cortez said during the broadcast to about 150,000 viewers. "Or rather, these are the tactics that abusers use.

"And so when I see this happen, how I feel, how I felt was: 'Not again.' I'm not going to let this happen again. I'm not going to let it happen to me again. I'm not going to let it happen to the other people who've been victimised by this situation again."

In her Instagram video, Ms Ocasio-Cortez denounced people who are "constantly trying to tell you that you didn't experience what you experienced or that you're lying."

"There's the trauma of going through what you went through," she said, "and then there's the trauma afterwards of people not believing you, or trying to publicly humiliate you, or trying to embarrass you.

"And that also gets internalised, too, because a lot of times you don't want to believe it either."

Ms Ocasio-Cortez said she was prepared for criticism after sharing her sexual assault ordeal because it was not directly related to the Capitol riot.

"People are going to say that, 'Oh, she's just trying to make it about her,'" she said. But all of your traumas can intersect and interact, she added.

I mean worst case scenario you can always try to convey a level I message with the earthworks

The area over the waste panels (and a buffer area to account for
migration of the radioactive materials) would be outlined by earthen berms
(Appendix F, Figs. 4 . 3 - 8 and 4 . 3 - 9 ) . These berms would be jagged in shape
and would radiate out from, but not cover, a central, generally square area.
The number of berms is sufficient to delineate a central area or "keep" even
if some are destroyed. The four corner berms would be higher and provide a
"vantage point" to see the area as a whole. The jagged nature of the berms
is meant to convey a sense of foreboding (not honorific or pleasant). The
exact size, shape, and configuration of the berms would be such that they
would not quickly be eroded or covered. The earthworks are meant to convey a
Level I message

likely because it inherits from wotan a mania for autobiography

‘Drink first, hero, so that distant things don’t escape you’

Let us begin with an oddity. George Bernard Shaw, The Perfect Wagnerite:

Almost the first thing that a dramatist has to learn in constructing a
play is that the persons must not come on the stage in the second act
and tell one another at great length what the audience has already seen
pass before its eyes in the first act. The extent to which Wagner has
been seduced into violating this rule by his affection for his themes is
startling for a practised playwright. Siegfried inherits from Wotan a
mania for autobiography which leads him to inflict on everyone he
meets the story of Mime and the dragon, although the audience have
spent a whole evening witnessing the events he is narrating. Hagen
tells the story to Gunther; and that same night Alberich’s ghost tells it
over again to Hagen, who knows it already as well as the audience.
Siegfried tells the Rhine maidens as much of it as they will listen to,
and then keeps telling it to his hunting companions until they kill
him."

+ lidar on page 16 of google search www.bbc.com/news/article...

“I was on something like page 16 of Google search and found a laser survey done by a Mexican organisation for environmental monitoring,” explains Luke Auld-Thomas, a PhD student at Tulane university in the US.

It was a Lidar survey, a remote sensing technique which fires thousands of laser pulses from a plane and maps objects below using the time the signal takes to return.

But when Mr Auld-Thomas processed the data with methods used by archaeologists, he saw what others had missed - a huge ancient city which may have been home to 30-50,000 people at its peak from 750 to 850 AD.

I mean given the model of christianity put forward by e.g. hegseth, I can see how this guy's concept of cheap vs costly grace would be psychology threatening

One of the most quoted parts of the book deals with the distinction which Bonhoeffer makes between "cheap" and "costly" grace. According to Bonhoeffer,

cheap grace is the preaching of forgiveness without requiring repentance, baptism without church discipline. Communion without confession. Cheap grace is grace without discipleship, grace without the cross, grace without Jesus Christ, living and incarnate.

Cheap grace, Bonhoeffer says, is to hear the gospel preached as follows: "Of course you have sinned, but now everything is forgiven, so you can stay as you are and enjoy the consolations of forgiveness." The main defect of such a proclamation is that it contains no demand for discipleship. In contrast to cheap grace,

costly grace confronts us as a gracious call to follow Jesus, it comes as a word of forgiveness to the broken spirit and the contrite heart. It is costly because it compels a man to submit to the yoke of Christ and follow him; it is grace because Jesus says: "My yoke is easy and my burden is light."

plaintiff was enticed with a drink of partially unknown provenance

General Jack D. Ripper: Water is the source of all life. Seven tenths of this earth's surface is water. Why do you realize that 70% of you is water? And as human beings, you and I need fresh, pure water - to replenish our precious bodily fluids. Are you beginning to understand?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: [nervously] Yes.
General Jack D. Ripper: Mandrake. Mandrake, have you never wondered why I drink only distilled water or rainwater? And only pure grain alcohol?
Group Capt. Lionel Mandrake: Well, it did occur to me, Jack, yes.

Kidney and Muoio battled for months. Kidney felt that the agency was overly dependent on the kind of direct evidence it had against Tourre.

what the

During the Comintern's Third Period (1928–1931), the Social Democratic Party of Germany (SPD) was included by the KPD in the category of "fascists"[11] based on the theory of "social fascism" supported by the Comintern in the early 1930s, according to which social democracy was a variant of fascism and even more dangerous and insidious than open fascism.[8] The KPD doctrine held that the communist party was "the only anti-fascist party" while all other parties were "fascist".[12][9]

truman explicitly rejected the drugs part of the ina in his veto because 'the threat of deportation would drive the addict into hiding beyond the reach of cure, and the danger to the country from drug addiction would be increased' www.trumanlibrary.gov/library/publ...

Some of the new grounds of deportation which the bill would provide are unnecessarily severe. Defects and mistakes in admission would serve to deport at any time because of the bill's elimination, retroactively as well as prospectively, of the present humane provision barring deportations on such grounds five years after entry. Narcotic drug addicts would be deportable at any time, whether or not the addiction was culpable, and whether or not cured. The threat of deportation would drive the addict into hiding beyond the reach of cure, and the danger to the country from drug addiction would be increased.

ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citation... source evaluation board at nasa was viewed as an aspect of 'total agency competency' and mentorship, but these docs are also littered with terror of 'brochuremanship' by contractors, and of devolving into an org that is susceptible to it

Overtone Benefits of SEB Service

The Administretor employs the process as a management technique with
motives over and above those concerned with contractor selection.** The
SEB process compells senior NASA officials to use good judgment and to
substentiate their findings with sound data and logic. By endeavoring
to understand the basic thought processes rather than the mechanical
quantification and justification of results presented by Board members,
the Administrator is thus enabled to test the quality of the thinking of
personnel he can seldom observe in a work situation. Thus SEB provides
a way in which total agency competency is brought to bear against a par-
ticuler challenge.

journals.law.harvard.edu/wp-content/u... this is a law prof's history of the period I think eisenhower wanted warren to be vinson 2.0

On September 8, 1953, before the second round of oral arguments,
Chief Justice Fred Vinson died, and President Eisenhower appointed
Earl Warren the new chief justice. On hearing of his colleague’s death,
Frankfurter, no friend of Vinson’s, is reported to have said, “This is the
first indication I have had that there is a God.”

President Eisenhower’s appointment of Warren, who had been
attorney general and then governor of California, did not suggest a
change of course for the Court. Warren, after all, was the attorney gen-
eral who had defended the result in Korematsu v. United States, the
1944 case that ratified the internment of Japanese Americans for the
first years of World War II and that was authored by another still-sitting
justice, the Alabaman Hugo Black.26 What most observers, Eisenhower
included, did not fully realize was that Korematsu had troubled Warren
and that, as a Californian, he was considered to be a moderate Repub-
lican
