| Poor Hollywood. First Trump, now this. |
As the Woolsey Fire raged over the weekend, destroying homes, wildlife and roads, it also tore open a more existential wound, consuming several pieces of Hollywood history and turning a geography of cinematic lore to cinder and ash.
“This is an incredible loss that we haven’t even begun to put our head around yet,” said Cari Beauchamp, a Hollywood historian and resident scholar of Mary Pickford Foundation, which promotes film archival and restoration projects.

well, when environmentalists block the efforts of loggers to remove the dead trees, this is what happens.
the key takeaway will be whether or not anyone learned the lesson. i suspect not. governor moonbeam is on his way out, and governor -elect shit needles is on his way in, and neither possesses the intellectual honesty to admit and address the real problem.
boo-fucking-hoo hollywood. sow the wind, reap the whirlwind.

It is amazing the amount of mis information you post....There are no log or loggers in hollywood or anywhere in So. Calf.......it is scrub land which abuts against densely populated urban areas....the brush consists of creosote, yucca, mesquite small live oaks and brush....Why are you this fucking ignorant or do you swallow each load of trumps man hood.????
California Gov. Jerry Brown’s decision to veto a 2016 bipartisan bill aimed at mitigating wildfire risks from power lines and utility equipment has become the focus of critics as fires rage across the state.
Wildfires have scorched more than 221,000 acres across California since Thursday, and Brown’s critics are pointing to the two-year-old veto as news reports suggest power lines may have sparked the deadliest wildfire in California’s history.
“Not addressing wildfires has reversed all the work we’ve done to reduce greenhouse gases,” Moorlach told TheDCNF. “It’s inconsistent.”
“It’s sort of become his religion,” Moorlach said of Brown’s global warming fervor.
The 135,000-acre Camp Fire destroyed thousands of structures, including engulfing the entire northern California town of Paradise. The Campre Fire resulted in at least 42 deaths, making it the deadliest blaze in state history.
It’s not clear what exactly caused the fire, but local media reports suggest PG&E power lines may be to blame for the deadly fire.

ROFLMFAO !!!
The day before California's deadly Camp Fire started, with 42 victims and more than 200 missing so far, Pacific Gas & Electric knew of an electrical problem that may have set off the blaze.
The day before the fire began, PG&E reportedly emailed a local landowner about "problems with sparks" and the need for workers to enter her property and work on the high-power lines.
Betsy Ann Cowley owns Pulga, a renovated former railroad town that is rented out for corporate retreats and private functions. She was away on vacation when an email arrived.
Neighboring town Paradise was destroyed by the fire.
"I’ve continuously tried to get in touch with [transmission line workers] but nobody is in charge and they suck at communication," Cowley told Bay Area News Group, noting that PG&E has ignored the power lines for years.
State officials have not yet determined a cause of the fire. However, an alert sent to state regulators and radio transmissions reviewed by Bay Area News Group suggest that a transmission line malfunction might have caused sparks that set off the blaze.
If officials conclude that sparks from PG&E equipment were the cause, the company could face massive lawsuits. In addition to the loss of life and missing persons, as of yesterday the fire had burned 117,000 acres, destroyed 6,453 residences and 260 commercial buildings, and threatened another 15,500, according to state authorities.
PG&E declined to discuss the email, saying it filed an "initial electric incident report" with state regulators. In a court filing on Friday, the company reportedly said it had detected a problem on a transmission line 15 minutes before the first report of the Camp Fire.
On Tuesday last week, the day before sending the email to Cowley, PG&E began informing 70,000 customers in Northern California about potential power blackouts due to "extreme fire danger conditions." The areas included Butte County, where Pulga and Paradise are located. The National Weather Service had also issued fire hazard warnings.

you have to give these fucksticks credit for audacity. between openly attempting to steal elections and perpetuating the warmyl cooling fraud, they know no shame.
There are really no other areas in the US with such conditions, asshole.
Actually the weather in California would not be much different at all than the surrounding states (who don't seem to have the same troubles with wildfire after wildfire).
In fact, your weather map seems to confirm that the "conditions" exist in many locations, but only California is seeing the devastation of wildfires.
So are you arguing that it's nothing with how California is being run, but that the people from California are just stupid, lazy, and cheap?
" are really no other areas in the US with such conditions".
Yep....show me another US area that have urban areas like LA built up into fire zones.....and please be specific......I won't hold my breath expecting a cogent response from a goat fucking asshole like you. And as usual the fucking coward adds his own brand of stupidity....again....oh well, nothing new there!!!!
So are you arguing that it's nothing with how California is being run, but that the people from California are just stupid, lazy, and cheap?
well... they DID just elect a democrat super-majority, the streets of san francisco are smeared with human shit and heroin needles, the high speed train to nowhere is behind schedule and wildly over budget, and the CALpers pension fund is only 71% funded.
so yeah, stupid, lazy and cheap about covers it.
different at all than the surrounding states (who don't seem to have the same troubles with wildfire after wildfire).
You are basing that statement on what...opinion? Because you ignore what went on in Az and NM last year who had record burns, but not the same extreme property loss that you get in Ca....Instead of making shit up Lil Scotty, I suggest you do a little research on this subject you know nothing about....And yes...those living in the interface zone have had years to protect their homes...they did not....you can call them whatever you like, but that is fact, not conjecture.....asshole...

socialized medicine in canada achieves a predictable milestone:
As of June 2016, physicians and nurse practitioners in Canada can provide medical assistance in dying (MAiD) for patients who meet eligibility criteria.
What is MAiD?
MAiD is a legal medical service where a medical practitioner (physician) or nurse practitioner, at an individual’s request: (a) administers a substance that causes an individual’s death; or (b) prescribes a substance for an individual to self-administer to cause their own death.
Where can MAiD happen?
MAiD can happen anywhere, including in the hospital or in your own home.

Fox News Joins Dozen News Outlets Supporting CNN In Lawsuit To Restore Jim Acosta’s White House Credentials
Deadline Lisa de Moraes,Deadline 39 minutes ago
Jim Acosta White House intern
Fox News has come out in support of CNN in CNN’s lawsuit against the White House’s decision to pull the press credentials of Jim Acosta.
“Fox News supports CNN in its legal effort to regain its White House reporter’s press credential,” Fox News President Jay Wallace said in a statement.
On Tuesday, CNN sued the White House for pulling Jim Acosta’s press credentials the day after President Donald Trump’s thumping in the midterm elections.
The cable news network filed a lawsuit in DC District Court against Trump and top aides, including White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Deputy Chief of Staff/ Former Fox News co-president Bill Shine, as well as the Secret Service which took away Acosta’s hard pass that afternoon.
CNN demanded the return of its chief White House correspondent’s press pass. Read it here.
“We intend to file an amicus brief with the U.S. District Court,” Fox News’s Wallace said in his statement. Notable, given that many, many Fox News Channel commentators have blasted Acosta’s aggressive Trump question-asking.

How'd that happen???/ Donnie???
Al Gore’s vision of a dangerous climate “tipping point”, foreshadowed in his 2007 book Assault on Reason, has failed to materialise"
Well, he has passed that torch to Alexadra cortez
n Florida, no one has offered evidence of widespread election fraud, and the recount is mandated by law and was ordered by the Florida secretary of state. Yet Mr. Scott said of Bill Nelson, the three-term Democratic senator he’s hoping to unseat, “Senator Nelson is clearly trying to commit fraud to try to win this election.”
ADVERTISEMENT
The counting itself, and not vote-rigging, seems to be the true catalyst of Mr. Scott’s panic and at least five separate lawsuits: As of Sunday, his lead over Mr. Nelson had withered significantly.
Advocacy groups have also gone to court, seeking to force Mr. Scott’s recusal from any role in election oversight. This is a sensible move. His alarmist stance, as opposed to the position of Mr. Nelson and the Democratic candidate for governor, Andrew Gillum, that all votes be counted, makes that clear.
Sowing doubt in the integrity of the recount is part of a Republican strategy that involves lawyers and operatives on the ground, much like what happened in the 2000 election, and a preview of what’s likely to happen leading up to the 2020 election.
We caught glimpses of this playbook — of dreaming up fraud where none exists — when Mr. Trump prejudged the outcome of the 2016 campaign, by calling the election “rigged,” refusing to say if he’d accept a loss to his rival, and deputizing his supporters to police polling places in Democratic strongholds, like Philadelphia. Mr. Trump tried to keep this alive with his short-lived, fruitless commission to root out election fraud. (The vice chairman of that sham commission, Kris Kobach, just lost his race for governor in deep-red Kansas.)
For all the fact-free doomsaying about rigged elections, democracy did remarkably well last week. For that we do have evidence: National turnout was the highest ever for midterm contests in the modern era, states made the franchise more accessible for millions and gerrymandering took a hit at the ballot box.
May those important victories, and not baseless claims that undermine the legitimacy of American democracy, be the guiding lights of a recount process that’s as lawful as it is critical to free and fair elections.

And turning back....you are safe fectum breath.....is this the same caravan that last week was south of Mexico city? Or is this another band that snuck around the trump barricade????/ Funny rectum breath....
maybe beetlejuice can get those beaners to fill out a bunch of provisional ballots in a big hurry so she can include them in the broward county recount.
There was wind so fierce I read it was causing fires to race so fast they were covering the distance of 80 football fields in a minute.
I find that difficult to believe, but that's what I read.
If true, or only partly true, what could possibly withstand that?
When even Fox News comes out against this off the rails "President" for his disregard for press freedom -- we see who the real Enemy of the People is.
Remember - Zero population growth and the end of the known world?
Hi James.
Good piece on fox. Good to see your a fox follower. When did you start?
Is this a" one off"?
"And you base that on what.."Mr. Dennis
Well, facts and hard science, observable, not ... man made models.
A key issue the D.C. Circuit never considered is that this sort of lawsuit should be dismissed under the political-question doctrine. In Baker v. Carr, the Supreme Court in 1962 identified six factors of political cases that cannot be decided by the courts.
One Baker factor is that a federal court cannot decide the matter “without expressing lack of respect due coordinate branches of government.” The White House is the president’s house. He lives there and sleeps there. Yes, it has offices, but the White House is not a department; it is not an agency created by Congress and subject to standard congressional oversight. It is, instead, the residence of the independently elected head of state, and those who work there do so as part of his household staff.
CNN and Acosta are asking a federal judge to give the president orders concerning whom he must allow into his home. The executive branch is a separate, coequal branch from the judicial branch. It would be as much of an insult for a federal judge to tell the president that he must allow someone into his living room as it would be for the president to order the Supreme Court regarding whom the justices must allow into their courtroom.
Relatedly, another factor is that the matter is “of a kind clearly for nonjudicial discretion.” Each branch of government has the discretion to determine the sort of atmosphere it wants for its public events and to give passes consistent with that discretion. Judges can exercise discretion regarding proper decorum in their courtrooms and can eject disruptive occupants from the courtroom, just as the House and Senate have discretion regarding the Capitol building. The president has at least that much discretion regarding his own house.

if obnoxious assholes could be removed from the kavanaugh hearings, then an obnoxious asshole can be booted from the white house press corps.
now, to be clear, i don't approve of acost-her's pass being pulled. he should have been allowed to keep it, and he should've been frozen out/boxed out of every single press briefing for the remainder of the trump presidency. the ultimate humiliation, and the one that would hurt acost-her the most would be to have to sit there without ever being called upon again.
acost-her is a piece of shit. you treat a piece of shit accordingly.
"If true, or only partly true, what could possibly withstand that?"
80 x 300 feet is 24,000 feet.
A mile is 5,280 feet. Nearly 5 miles a minute.
So no James it is non-sense.
I'm no Fox follower.
I'm only saying that when a network as corrupt as Fox gets its dander up, the "President" has REALLY MESSED UP.
Good! :-)
So you are a one off reader.
Trump Has Little Support for Re-Election
12:14 pm EST
A new Monmouth poll finds a little more than 3 in 10 Americans want to see President Trump win a second term in the White House.
“Those who don’t want to see Trump reelected predictably varies by party, but 16% — not an insignificant number — of Republicans say Trump should be a one-term leader… while 92% of Democrats and 58% of independents said the same.”
“This is a temporary blip on the radar screen… I hope so, if not we’re in real trouble.”
— Rep. Mark Sanford (R-SC), quoted by The Hill, on the Trump presidency.
Fox News announced on Wednesday that it would support CNN in the network's lawsuit against the Trump administration over the revocation of the White House correspondent Jim Acosta's press credentials.
The announcement was a stunning move for Fox News, whose on-air personalities have often criticized CNN and Acosta.
Fox News President Jay Wallace accused the Trump administration of weaponizing press credentials and criticized both President Donald Trump and news outlets for adopting a "growing antagonistic tone" at recent press conferences.
CNN Likely to Prevail In Lawsuit Against Trump
“President Trump and press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders often have the upper hand over CNN in the White House briefing room. But CNN has likely now claimed the advantage by moving the battle to the courtroom,” Politico reports.
“First Amendment lawyers say courts have a history of defending access for journalists, and the White House’s shifting justifications won’t help it in the coming legal fight over the decision to revoke correspondent Jim Acosta’s press pass last week.”
In their letters, Frank Clark and Gene Hicks suggested that I leave the country since I wrote that I am ashamed to live in a country that elected Donald Trump to be president and leader of the free world.
My state of being ashamed will go away when America selects a decent and qualified person, Republican or Democrat, to be president. Trump demonstrates to the world every day that he is woefully inadequate of meeting the requirements and challenges of the position he holds.
I will remain in the USA so I can be part of the resistance to this miserable, corrupt and dishonest administration. The midterm elections just completed revealed there are far more voters that value common decency, honesty, compassion and high moral standards than the voters that elected Trump in 2016. They understand that economic policies beneficial to the wealthy do not take priority over good and decent human values.
I am looking forward to 2020 when the aforementioned decent citizens rebuke this inept administration once and for all. It would also be nice if a Republican of good moral values and a sense of decency would step up and primary Trump. John Kasich or Jeff Flake both fit that description. A contest between equally honorable, capable candidates would be good for the country.
Ideally, the Mueller investigation will result in federal criminal charges that will result in impeachment or resignation. One can dream, can’t one?
By the way, I am also a US Army veteran.

In 2008, President Barack Obama booted three reporters from conservative newspapers off his campaign plane.
The campaign claimed there were only a limited number of seats on the plane for reporters, who would follow the then-candidate on the last four days of his presidential campaign.
Obama's camp didn't allow The Washington Times, the New York Post or the Dallas Morning News on the plane but allowed non-political media outlets such as Glamour and Ebony magazines to stay."

Rep. Tom MacArthur (R-N.J.) lost his seat to Democratic challenger Andy Kim on Wednesday, resulting in a near-wipeout for the GOP in the state, The Associated Press reported.
With MacArthur's loss, Democrats successfully flipped four Republican seats in New Jersey in the midterm elections this year, some of which had been held by the GOP for decades.
Come January, there will only be one Republican congressman from New Jersey - Rep. Chris Smith, who easily won reelection in a Republican-friendly district.
MacArthur's race was considered a toss-up, though President Trump won the district by 6 points in 2016.

people are fleeing jersey like they're fleeing NY, alky.
here's how fucked up NJ is, so it's no surprise they voted democrat:
Our top-heavy economy has come to this: One man can move out of New Jersey and put the entire state budget at risk. Other states are facing similar situations as a greater share of income — and tax revenue — becomes concentrated in the hands of a few.
Last month, during a routine review of New Jersey’s finances, one could sense the alarm. The state’s wealthiest resident had reportedly “shifted his personal and business domicile to another state,” Frank W. Haines III, New Jersey’s legislative budget and finance officer, told a State Senate committee. If the news were true, New Jersey would lose so much in tax revenue that “we may be facing an unusual degree of income tax forecast risk,” Mr. Haines said.
The New Jersey resident (unnamed by Mr. Haines) is the hedge-fund billionaire David Tepper. In December, Mr. Tepper declared himself a resident of Florida after living for over 20 years in New Jersey. He later moved the official headquarters of his hedge fund, Appaloosa Management, to Miami.
New Jersey won’t say exactly how much Mr. Tepper paid in taxes. But according to Institutional Investor’s Alpha, he earned more than $6 billion from 2012 to 2015. Tax experts say his move to Florida could cost New Jersey — which has a top tax rate of 8.97 percent — hundreds of millions of dollars in lost payments.
Mr. Tepper, 58, declined to comment on his move. He does have family — his mother and sister — who live in Florida. But several New Jersey lawmakers cited his relocation as proof that the state’s tax rates, up from 6.37 percent in 1996, are chasing away the rich. Florida has no personal income tax.
“If you’re making hundreds of millions of dollars and you’re paying close to 10 percent to the state of New Jersey, you do the math,” said Jon Bramnick, the Republican leader in the New Jersey Assembly. “You can save millions a year by moving to Florida. How can you blame him?”
https://www.nytimes.com/2016/05/01/business/one-top-taxpayer-moved-and-new-jersey-shuddered.html
so obviously when a single taxpayer can fuck your entire state budget, the thing to do is elect more tax & spend democrats.
oh, and you give a child-raping democrat senator another term.

From small business owners to New Jersey's 22 Fortune 500 companies, nobody will like being treated like the Garden State piggybank, said Jon Bramnick, the state Assembly's Republican leader.
"The people who are most upset, you're never going to hear from," Bramnick, R-Union, said. "They don't do press conferences. They don't call and say, 'Hey, I'm leaving.'"

enate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) published an op-ed on Tuesday that slammed the incoming Democratic majority in the House of Representatives for being too partisan.
It didn’t go over very well.
In a piece posted on the Fox News website titled “Will Dems work with us, or simply put partisan politics ahead of the country?” McConnell gloated that a “unified Republican government” led to “a period of historic productivity” over the past two years. He also said bipartisanship wasn’t dead and claimed: “some of the most significant accomplishments of this Congress have been delivered with overwhelmingly bipartisan support.”
But then McConnell lashed out at the Democrats taking control of the House following last week’s midterm elections, writing that the message of bipartisanship “may have been lost on a few House Democrats, who have made clear their preference for investigations over policy results.”
“After years of rhetoric, it’s hardly news that some are more interested in fanning the flames of division than reaching across the aisle,” he added.
Twitter then reminded McConnell of his long track record of obstructing President Barack Obama, including his successful blockade of Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland:
Twitter, omg funny. Thanks.
Like that is a real thing.
JOURNALISM! Brian Stelter baffled by how Trump’s countering MSM’s ‘brooding, isolated’ narrative

He was joking.
He was lively.
He was energized.
The MSM sure seems to wish Trump would cooperate more with their narrative
