Do you guys remember when Darren Wilson killed Saint Michael Brown? After three Obama officials attended the funeral Eric Holder sent investigators down to Ferguson to find a way of jamming up Darren Wilson. They investigated for eight months and the only crime they could find was that Ferguson was 65% black and 85% of TRAFFIC TICKETS went to POC!!! OMG!!! As an aside they backed off on traffic enforcement and a hit and run at a school zone knocked over two ten year olds. And generally shitty driving increased.

Basically all this Mueller bullshit has uncovered is some speeding tickets Manafort didn't pay.

I've been stuck in Olney, IL on a f'cked up data conversion project this week. It's a two hour drive each day, each way.

Company policy says I have to fill up at Citgo gas stations. I'm down to 17 miles when I hit one in Sandborn, IN.

As I'm filling up this ginormous pickup pulls up and out pops a lady and a boy about the same age as my boy. The lady is crying her eyes out.

I fill up and walk in to pay and the lass is still gushing tears.

I didn't ask but she apologizes to me for her state and says she's outta gas, outta money and doesn't get her husband's check till .

Says her husband got called up from Indiana National Guard last week.

My Dad and older brother were both lifers.

I paid the gas bill, walked up znc gave the $47 in my wallet to her and punched the boy in the arm and told him his Dad was a good guy doing a great thing.

I hope I didn't get punked.

Colin Flaherty's interpretation was it was a SIGNAL to the local authorities to jamb Darren Wilson up with extreme...PREJUDICE...

Manuel Transmission

Abstraction: ab·strac·tion
abˈstrakSH(ə)n/
noun

the quality of dealing with ideas rather than events.
"topics will vary in degrees of abstraction"

All the back and forth over the last day or so here on JOM (we had about 10 hrs of data darkness due to someone tripping over the fiber extension cord in Anacortes) invoked an epiphany in my little brain.

That eureka? that something that has been floating around in my brain for decades finally hit critical mass. Human brains operate on at leaset three levels: 1) for lack of a more formal description - the collective unconcious where we get our subtle cues from the outer world as primative cultures have for thousands of years (at least!); 2) 'the real world' where we interact with hot stoves and other 'real' stuff; and 3) the abstract world where our betters live that can, with a little effort, exist without any direct contact with 1 or 2 above.

Now, anyone who has read any of Robin's references to the axe maker's mind will recognise that she has clearly identified the deliberate effort to dial out any reference to level 2 awareness.

So how does this relate to the back and forth of anonamom and the EMT records and all the nuiances as to how that affects the patient experience? Because the good doctors (and RNs) have instinctively integrated all three elements in their practices, because success requires it, while all the bureauacries naturally strip away all of 1 and 2 as a basis of how that realm normally works. The distraction of typing into a box, which masks the subtle signals of body language and other natural mechanisms is the end result.

But in the larger picture, think about how the full court press to shove us into 3 preferably without any further sense of 2 is the essence of almost everything that is wrong today. Trump intrinsically works in all three modes comfortably and that may be the Stable Genius element that is so bewildering to all those who don't grok him.

No way PIN. You're shittin' me.
Obama sends 3 REPRESENTATIVES, whom NO ONE HAS EVER HEARD OF BEFORE, to BIG MICHAEL BROWN'S funeral and the SO SO SAD observations and celebrations of his criminal life. WHY?? Why would OBAMA do this??
It's patently obvious. OBAMA is a COMMIE HALF BLACK CLOWN. It's like slapping AMERICAN POLICE in the FACE. There is/was ZERO EVIDENCE of WHITEY putting down THE CRIMINAL MICHAEL BROWN for RACIAL BIAS. QUITE THE CONTRARY.
So, how am I supposed to view OBAMA and his racist/clownist view points. AND, These 3 black OBAMA REPRESENTATIVES to the FUNERAL. WTF??

Who are they, and WHY are they?

Pinandpuller

*Spoiler Alert*

It wasn't a white guy:

The book, at its most basic level, is a story about a little girl’s journey from the insidiousness of Chinese authoritarianism to the horrors of inner-city America. The story begins in China in the late 1970s, where economic reforms are rapidly transforming the country into a more hopeful, more colorful place, and where our protagonist immerses herself in a world of fantasy and foreign influences while grappling with the mundane vagaries of Communist rule. In the mid-1980s, she happily immigrates to Oakland, California, expecting her new life to be far better in all ways than life in China. Instead, she discovers crumbling schools, unsafe streets, and racist people. In the land of the free, she comes of age amid the dysfunction of a city’s brokenness and learns to hate in the shadows of urban decay. The book is a story about her journey and how she prevailed.

FP: And that little girl is you, you’re the Chinese girl in the ghetto.

YM: Yes, the book is autobiographical. It is about my family’s journey from Guangzhou, China’s third largest city, to inner-city Oakland, California.

FP: On your website, you refer to the book as “a politically incorrect memoir.” What makes it politically incorrect?

YM: The book is politically incorrect mainly in a couple of ways. For one, it makes clear, through my experiences, that racial minorities are capable of profound racism. As you know, this is a politically incorrect thing to say because our political culture often views minorities, especially blacks and Hispanics, as victims of racism who are incapable of being racists. When individuals from these groups commit racist acts, people have a tendency to look away. This is outrageous not only for the targets of racism, but it is also unfortunate for those behaving in a racist manner because they’re never held to the same standards of personal responsibility and decency as others. In my book, I don’t look away, and my hope is that the book will help shatter the hypocrisy and the soft bigotry of low expectations commonly found in this country’s racial discourse.

Clarice,

Thought this bit on a Korean Immigrant with the last name Ohr might fit the bill for being able to figure out who Bruce Ohr's parents were since Ohr as a Korean last name seems to be one of a kind:

Remembering All Who Served on Veterans Day---Fred Ohr

All soldiers have endured hardship, but some have faced an additional burden. Such was the case for Fred Ohr, a son of Korean immigrants, who not only became an ace Army Air Corps pilot, but a squadron Commander...

...Ohr was born July 15, 1919, to Korean immigrants Wanda and Wan Ju. His parents had fled their homeland to escape persecution from Japan. “The Japanese were trying to eliminate the Korean race,” says Ohr. “That’s why they came to America. My father ended up in a salmon fishing camp in Alaska. Then he came to Oregon and worked as a lumberjack, in the 1900s.”

When his parents went through immigration to become U.S. citizens, there was no equivalent English name for Ju. The immigration officer heard his father say “Oh,” and, not knowing what to do, added the letter “r” to the sound “Oh.” That’s how Fred’s Korean name of Yu became Americanized to Ohr.

Since he is Korean and since Ohr is such a unique name, my guess is Bruce Ohr has to be part of this extended Ohr family since there probably aren't any others Korean Ohr's on the planet. I'm just waggin it, but this timeframe would reasonably fit as this guy being Bruce Ohr's fathers Uncle or older brother.

Let me keep sleuthing.

Anybody have an account to Ancestry.com and can look up Fred Ohr?

Well it would be about two generation so grandson or grandnephew,

Man Tran, I like it.

I've come to think of the first part of consciousness as the "lizard" brain. It's the startle response that causes you to jerk your head back when a leaf falls too close to your face. I think of as pre-consciousness, or if you will, instinct.

Wilderness brain attuned to danger that reacts without thought. Self-preservation - flight or fight.

Then, of course, you have a sub-conscious and full conscious thought that allows you to evaluate the lizard brain alert more rationally.

And, if some are to be believed, there is a cosmic consciousness that only some can connect to, possibly explaining pure genius.

I think Trump makes good use of that lizard brain and trusts his response to the stimuli with a well honed business mind. Then the strategy falls into place.

Real estate is the perfect civilian occupation to practice the art of war.

MT, 11.21: Interesting. I read your post twice. Still thinking about it.

Maybe not related, but sometimes I have three or four levels going on at the same time -- say, doing a task in kitchen (hot stove or boiling water so have to take care, also taking next step in recipe or fixing another dish), thinking about a problem related to family, planning or thinking about an article, and sometimes answering questions -- when I tell my husband I'm operating on several different levels, he shakes his head at me. I do this all of the time throughout the day.

Though I have been told by someone I love that I had a grasshopper mind and might have been a success if I'd learned to focus on one thing at a time. :)

Not quite what you were talking about.

And, as far as the doctors, if I try to say anything while my doctor is typing in his code he asks me not to talk, he doesn't want to make a mistake on the code or the insurance will kick it out -- he stares down at the thing, and says it's difficult to get it right and he has to concentrate. It's at that time that I wish I'd taken a list of questions to ask him so I'd remember what I wanted to say.

In Cape Girardeau today we were toodling around downtown waiting for our Broussard's (h/t Kev). I saw this tall black dude heading down the sidewalk toward us and I grabbed my dog and my wife (wife wasn't on a leash) and headed uptown. Then we crossed the street. This dude wasn't a threat because he was black but I knew he was fishing for something because I've worked in Nashville nine years and I finally got streetwise. He asked other people for stuff.

On the other side of the street we passed two black dudes sitting on a bench and we exchanged looks, greetings and head nods. And my dog didn't go apeshit so she's obviously IMPLICITLY racist.

Me, I'm a Person of Farmer Tan and I'm pretty dark between the hat and the collar and sleeves down.

GUS,

From articles I'm reading it seems that both North Korea and China are baffled with Trump.

China expected the Trump policy on trade to evaporate.

North Korea expected that meeting with Trump and making promises, that Trump would ease of the sanctions. Trump, and his team, are working to tighten the sanctions protocol.

Quite a few Chinese seem to revere Trump. Remember my weird "Grandpa Trump save us" post of yesterday.

I wonder if this is accurate. It could be true. According to this Pompeo wants North Korea to give up a lot of weapons in eight months.

Me? Yeah, I'd push for a big number fast. It begs the question are you serious or not. If not, we'll keep negotiating and apply even more pressure to the sanctions by calling people out or sanctioning them also, like we did to a Russian bank dealing with the NoKos recently. Do the same thing with Chinese banks that are working with the NoKos.

Thought. Did China think that helping us with North Korea was tied to trade? That could explain the confusion of both Asian nations.

If North Korea isn't fair dealing, why take the pressure off China? If North Korea is fair dealing, what does that have to do with trade imbalances?

Still sleuthing on Korean American Fred Ohr.

Also honored was Maj. Fred Ohr, the only American ace of Korean ancestry. He served with the 2nd Fighter Squadron, 52nd Fighter Group, until November 1944. He worked his way to the ranking of squadron colonel and flew 241 combat missions before returning stateside. His first victory was against a Ju-88 while flying a Spitfire. He then transitioned to the P-51 and shot down five more German fighters.

Wiki says that after the War he became a Dental Surgeon in Chicago, so obviously a very smart, very accomplished man. Retired in Rockford, Illinois and buried in Arlington Cemetery.

with apologies to gus, IF YOU READ ANYTHING AT ALL I POST TONIGHT, YOU HAVE TO READ THIS. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO READ THIS SO AS TO GET AN UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ORDINARY CHINESE INVESTORS. THEIR MONEY IS JUST DISAPPEARING.

"In recent years, millions of ordinary investors across China have plowed their savings into online financial products that promised big profits with little risk. But the sudden collapse of hundreds of these peer-to-peer lenders in recent months has prompted a panic, leaving many investors with little information and little way to get their money back."

"A vast, unruly shadow banking system, where some companies have lured people with get-rich-quick schemes, has created hidden debt bombs that could leave the economy vulnerable."

"Officials trying to control the situation are faced with a fast-moving crisis. In July alone, 168 lending platforms halted their operations, according to Wangdaizhijia."

This is in some sense the beginning of the debt bubble I've warned against.

Chinese citizens are losing large sums of money, because these accounts have no depositor insurance.

Who do you think they blame? Did I hear the Government? You betcha.

You don't need a degree in economics to figure out how these Chinese feel.

OOPS. China doesn't have enough access to crude oil, so it just exempted US imports of crude.

Major fail.

>>>Thought. Did China think that helping us with North Korea was tied to trade? That could explain the confusion of both Asian nations.

If North Korea isn't fair dealing, why take the pressure off China? If North Korea is fair dealing, what does that have to do with trade imbalances?

it might go to your other articles above about the confusion. no one in the US has linked the issue seriously, at least at this level before. and North Korea is into a lot more than just weapons proliferation ... narco-terror, tunnel building (think Gaza), counterfeiting, finicial frauds ... a lot of chinese have gotten rich in macau (which sort of explains hamas and eta teaming up) for being the front for the north korean "sopranos state" ...

More about China trying to make accommodations. Trade talks have been handed off to moderates.

Yes and no. Not a classic Ponzi scheme, although they did claim out-sized returns. These things were promoted through Chinese media. China heavily censors the media. They didn't do that to these intermediaries, ergo, they had state approval. Or seemed to.

Communist China is less confused than it is disoriented by POTUS' disruption strategy.

Coupled with the craters appearing throughout their state managed economy and, some generally stupid Communist style sh*t like their Potemkin city "development" projects and environmental fouling, this is the perfect time for POTUS' multifront effort.

One of those fronts AGAINST Communist China is NOKO; even though the PR offensive made NOKO look like the ultimate "object of desire."

Pompeo is the right official to lead the negotiations process. He doesn't need to get a deal-- he needs only to disrupt the corrupt practices that make NOKO Nukes possible in the first place. Cockroaches cant build nests in broad daylight.

Mike Pompeo is Mr. Daylight.
