One thing that bothers me, about this place right now
Here are some of the predictions I have made over the years .

1.- 2007 the economy is in the shits and will get worst, far worst... 2008 came along in case anybody forgets.

2.- Explained why Haiti was such a cluster **** from a response POV, even if some people did not like it. BTW it still is a mess, for the recovery phase has not gone well... but when your recovery is mostly based on 1000 points of light and weak central governments, well, what can I say?

3.- I did state here, why this TP(toilet paper?) nuttiness don't[sic] surprise me, that the debt ceiling was going to be ahem, a hard slog... which it was. The downgrade does not shock or surprise me. They are saying the exact same thing I am.. they are watching the same exact TRENDS... and that is we have a highly unstable government... so we have not seen riots\civil war (cold phases are harder to identify) but conditions are going in that direction. I know Cassandra was not too popular either.

4.- Fiuku[sic!] is going to be worst than Chernobyl... well it is, and I actually undershot that one. I did not take into account the quite possible China syndrome at play here. Sorry, Cassandra was not that negative on this and missed it.

And these are the major ones. So where is what puzzles me. If I see a post from somebody I don't particularly agree with any longer I just don't open them. I simply don't. There is no use in snark. and being an asshole. Yet, I get the same group of people doing that. I mean, there is the ignore poster, or hide thred tool. I promise you, I wil no longer put you on ignore, just alert the living daylights out of you, and let the mods deal with it. But I am puzzled... why keep doing that? Logic should tell me, that instead of readying something from somebody you don't like, you'd just not read it... but that is just me. Perhaps that's too much logic.

Oh and those are just four examples of what I have called...

Oh and on the downgrade, let me repeat this again... this was a political call based on OUR POLITICAL trends, which are not good. But that is another matter.

Now me, need to get dinner ready. It is so damn hot I am just making a tuna salad, and hubby gets some bread and I get chips...

We, after all, need to eat.

11. Now post the "predictions" you've made over the years that fell flat...
 Throw enough shit at the wall over the years, something's bound to stick once in a while.

Remember all the breathless panting about war between the Koreas? "Pretty much imminent" were your exact words, I believe. And, once the live-fire exercise was over, nothing at all happened.

How 'bout "we enter the violent stage of this", "we will see something really ugly now" about the Egyptian uprising. Another swing and a miss.

You're just another poster at DU. Marginally more insightful than some, certainly more self-absorbed than many.

Any idiot can make a 'prediction' about Haiti..  It was a cesspool 100 years ago, and I predict it will be a cesspool 100 years from now.

26. Most of your predictions have been wrong. flat wrong. For years
you've breathlessly pronounced one (secular)(imminent) end time prediction after another. Trust you to brag about your (mostly) wrong predictions. Trust you to post something like this. You've learned nothing from your tribulations here.

Some of you probably thought know-it-all nadin is simply a forum sage, an internet wise woman, but noooo! You would be wrong! Nutcase nadin has a brilliant record of achievements in the real world:

34. well there is that, but there is a hsitory[sic] here
By the way real life accomplishments as well, but I prefer not to go into them. But since you asked, a very productive talk with a member of the Hawaii House about the USPA... there is a reason why Hawaii said no... and I take partial credit for that. I only brought the attention, aka eyes on document.

There are others but why go into that?

THis is about DU and how we all react to people we simply cannot stand. My POV is to simply NOT open those threads, no matter how correct they might be. Others keep attacking in predictable forms. 
 
I have no idea what the "USPA" is, but nutcase got Hawaii to say "no". Twist her arm and she will go into the others.

37. Of course you take credit for it.
and you do keep attacking in predictable form. Look, how is it possible to be as cognitively dissonant as you appear in these threads of yours? Honestly, I find it puzzling.

Do you not get that your posts are a litany of "me, me, me"? 
No, she doesn't get it.

Ok some history, short, on restructuring debt
 Edited on Mon Aug-08-11 06:27 PM by nadinbrzezinski
because it is part of the solution.

We have done that, as nation states, before. The last time for sovereign debt (state owned debt) it was done as part of the Bretton Woods Agreement. This was important since one of the causes of WW I was that sovereign debt.

In that situation a lot of debt from Germany, for example, was wiped out. We also added silly shit like the Marshall Plan later, but realize Breton Woods did wipe out quite a bit of debt. It just went poof...

In the US we had that done for PRIVATE debt in 1933.

It is time we think about this, even if personal investors will lose big. What ails the economy is structural. We also need a huge level of reforms, that will lead to a good mix of PRIVATE AND PUBLIC economic growth. No, I don't expect a private company to build roads... but I do not expect the public sector to bake bread The problem we have is that some folks in this country believe the private sector can build roads and bake bread at the same time.

We also need to rebuild our industrial infrastructure.

Oh and labor... needs to get far more proactive and realize that the era of playing nice is partly what brought us here.

Oh man, I just looked that up.

Quote
George Beverly "Bev" Shea (born February 1, 1909) is a Grammy Award-winning Canadian-born American gospel singer and hymn composer. Shea has often been described as "America's Beloved Gospel Singer"[1] and is considered "the first international singing 'star' of the gospel world," as a consequence of his solos at Billy Graham Crusades and his exposure on radio, records, and television.[2][3] According to the Guinness Book of Records, Shea holds the world record for singing in person to the most people ever, with an estimated cumulative live audience of 220 million people.

One hundred and two years old, and still going strong.

I was just mocking nutcase nadin, but seriously, George Beverly Shea singing "How Great Thou Art" is as beautiful a piece of music as I have ever heard.

I knew that, but I was just curious, as I don't know much about celebrities--although I was aware George Beverly Shea's rendition of "How Great Thou Art" usually rates as one of the most outstanding performances of the twentieth century.

So no disparagement of him or his awesome talents; I was just curious.

Quote
On 12 February 2011 Shea received the 2010 Lifetime Achievement Grammy Award alongside Julie Andrews, Roy Haynes, the Juilliard String Quartet, the Kingston Trio, Dolly Parton and the Ramones at a ceremony held at the Wilshire Ebell Theater in Los Angeles, California.

I'm assuming this rates as highly as the Mormon Tabernacle's classic "Battle Hymn of the Republic."

That thread got locked but she's still got some lecturing to do:

Yet another this bothers me post
   
Understanding where things come from.. this case riots, could be the American Revolution.... the implication I have been given by a few folks is that I am obviously for them fun and games.

I once had a political science instructor who actually did a lot of work on the riots of the 1960s... and compared them to the riots in other places. It was an interesting question.. where does a riot come from and are the same all over the place? His findings were that the origin of each riot is essentially depending on social stress and desperation. He got a grant for that. Like me, I guess since he understood where they came from, he was for them.

If this is the logic, I guess I am all for revolution or civil war (revolutions are always civil wars)... which could not never be farther from the truth.

This is yes another form of trying to suppress thought and discussion. I ain't gonna go into the logic based term... don't matter. But this really bothered me, and decided to make this an OP. Since it seems to be a trend.

For the record, I had EMS command of a fairly large riot that lasted six hours. That is as close as I ever want to get to one... it didn't last three days, just six hours... that's long enough and close enough for me.

I alos got to debrief kids from the wars in Central America. Civil wars are not civil, nor is ethnic cleansing by the way.

I must say, it was an interesting way to try to discuss something.

If you post something that you seem to understand,

you must support it,

therefore you are in favor of it...

yep, it has a name, and I will leave it at that.

Thumbs up to you nadin. Don't let the naysayers get you down. As the voting for the DOTY draws closer I think it's a wise campaign choice to make your successes known. I would suggest doing this every month or so as we get nearer to the vote, and I would also recommend not leaving out the fact that you singlehandedly saved the world from radiation poisoning.

And straightened us out concerning the real timeline for the Teapot Dome Scandal.  Thanks, Nadin.  You really saved us on that one.

Nadin reminds me of that kid in college who complained to our Chemistry TA who marked off 15 points on a 10 point question.  When he asked the TA why he took that many points off, the TA replied with a totally straight face, "But you were SO WRONG."

(Memo to lurking DUmmies--the TA in fact then credited back the 5 points.  Calm yo tits.)

I think you're making reference to the "Tea  Pot Dome", which led to the Pure Food and Drug Act. Nadin wrote a book on it.
