RE: Audio Compression...

I use a Boost, Equaliser and Compressor in that order. Then a Blues Driver to get the right sound for me.
All that into a Marshall MG30. The pickups always need adjusting first. You probably don't need all that with a Bass guitar though.

RE: Who is next?

Maybe we'll see Navalny's daughter going up against Putin's daughter.

RE: What is the final disposition of Trump’s $350 Million fine?

Statutes of Limitations.

Extracts:

"No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States"

"the Court has held that any later act removing or repealing the statute of limitations would be void"

RE: Who is next?

Who's next? Kara-Murza?


Maybe it's better to ask Who's next to take up the Leadership role and Unite the fragmented Opposition.

Could that person be Navalnaya but more importantly can the Opposition be effective solely by a peaceful political means, probably not.

She would need to unite the other activists behind her which will be a challenge.
She also needs to unite the women and mothers of Russia in their cause.

A result was never going to be achieved through Martyrdom. It may not be achieved without gaining the support of the military and that would mean someone like Medvedev, but who would want him.

Navalnaya needs to stay free and she will need protection and funding (from Exiled Oligarchs). I heard Bill Browder speaking and he appeared to dismiss her so I don't know what the general sentiment is towards her, she stayed in the shadows up to this. Browder is trying to get Kara-Murza freed and would back him but Putin obviously knows what he's up to so that's unlikely to work.

RE: What is the final disposition of Trump’s $350 Million fine?

"The $5M+ held on bond will go to E. Jean Carroll assuming Trump's appeal flops.

I got my dates wrong.

Carroll can start collecting the $83M+ on the 25th February.

If Trump hasn't placed the award in escrow, or found a company to post it on bond within the next three days, then he isn't appealing the verdict."

It's not that simple.

Check out the rights in the constitution and the Statute of Limitations

If the Changing Room Affair fails then the subsequent one is negated.

RE: Who is next?

I thought I posted already that Navalny was killed the evening before it was declared. He wasn't out for a walk, that sounded wrong because he was supposed to be in solitary confinement. Well apparently he was in External Solitary Confinement, a cage in other words in temperatures of c. -30°C where he was then beaten to death with blows to the heart.
This fits with the statement that there was a special lockdown late the evening before. Also the medic in attendance said that there was severe bruising around the area of the heart.

RE: DeSantis is back at it, again...

So how will the 'immigrants in waiting' hear of this 'stroke of the pen' and if the do will they voluntarily turn back?

Quote NY Times:
"The deal would make it more difficult for migrants to be granted asylum in the United States, increase detention capacity, step up deportations of individuals seeking to enter the country without authorization, and shut down the U.S.-Mexico border to new entries if crossings exceed a certain level."

So what's the funding for?

RE: Is it almost curtains for America

Thanks for that but I was thinking of foreign military attacks on United States territory.

RE: Is it almost curtains for America

Ok, I thought I missed a clue somewhere.

RE: Is it almost curtains for America

I don't know if the op's comment was directed at me, he didn't say.

My post was about the US Military which is involved overseas more than in America, supplying artillery and fighting and Nato bases.

His comments are similar to another poster a couple of years ago about cleaning your own backyard.

Out of interest how did you know he was referring to me?

RE: DeSantis is back at it, again...

Biden has been looking for $13.6 billion for border security. The money would pay for more border patrol officers, immigration judges, shelters and detention centers. It also includes more than $1 billion for battling fentanyl trafficking.

Unfortunately Republicans are blocking it.

RE: The key to ending Ukraine's conflict

Yes it's the crops. Poland has been objecting for some time but that wasn't an issue for Brussels. When France felt the effects something had to happen.
If Ukraine does join the EU Brussels will dictate what can be grown there and what can be sold into Europe.
Maybe wild flowers.

RE: Upgrade to Premium...

$9 a month for us here. rolling on the floor laughing
Maybe if there were less scammers, conspirators, political, religous....never mind.
Plus the functionality of the site is primitive.

RE: FAKE PROFILERS

They're getting better at it though. They pick up tips on how to improve their profiles so they will appear more genuine. Some good tips here.
They do like to include an obvious mistake like the age because some people will write to let them know, thereby unblocking them and opening dialogue.
More tips for them. laugh

RE: The entity

It's not difficult to scare yourself. Try this some night you're on your own, it probably won't work if someone else is in the house (that you know of).

There's an old rhyme...

When I was going up the stair
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I only wish he'd go away.

Make a note to recite this before bedtime.

Hopefully you have a stairs.
If not just improvise.

As soon as you start walking up the stairs start thinking that a hand is going to grab your heel.
Hopefully you’ll begin to get a bit spooked.

Beware of someone stroking the back of your neck.

Check behind the bedroom door.

When you're in bed and the light is off watch the shadows for movement.

If everything is still there's no ghost there and you can sleep calmly.

Just one last thing. Did you check under the bed. laugh

RE: life principles

Maybe I lived by the 16 Commandments. Does that count? I can't remember them now though.

RE: The key to ending Ukraine's conflict

Tulefell, Do you have someone in mind who in reality could become ruler and end the war?
And would this be dependent on the capacity of the incumbent ruler.
In other words is what you say a plausible reality or a wish.

RE: When peaceful protests fall on deaf ears

You're probably right, there's been no trouble near where I live so it's easy for me to ignore it. handshake

RE: life principles

Salamuna, I don't think I have any but I'd love to hear yours. wine

RE: One Belt and Road Initiative growing stronger

Probably a pre-emptive move by the UK in case Trump gets elected and takes the US out of NATO.

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

I'll refer you back to your statement:

"Presumably the punitive award goes back into the court coffers. Having a second defamation case because Trump continued to flout the law shouldn't be at the expense of US citizens."

I thought your presumption was based on something you knew but I should have known better.
There is information available if you care to check. uh oh rolling on the floor laughing

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

False alarm!
New York State dropped that Statute.

RE: The key to ending Ukraine's conflict

My post was addressed to the OP which is why I took the trouble to quote the opening post.

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

I do the work on my own topics, I can't be expected to do everything. doh rolling on the floor laughing

New York State may split punitive awards, it's their call.

Legal costs, for Carroll and the State.

Sil vous plait.

RE: The key to ending Ukraine's conflict

That blog ran its course, it will soon disappear.

I agree with you about criminality and corruption in Ukraine, it's no different than Russia, they belong together, not in the EU.

Regarding your second point, you're probably right, Putin’s intentions may be pure.

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

Good work there jac. Any idea why the State didn't ask for a cut of the Punitive award?
And one last question, who pays costs and how much will that be?

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

Split in this case between New York State (they) and E. Carrol.

I thought you were on to this 'spark of hope' for Trump.

RE: Habba Dabba stepped in some Dudu...

In the State of New York punitive awards can be split so they have a vested interest in winning awards and defending any appeal. Trump's lawyers should be on to this. Well spotted. handshake

RE: Another Bubba a hole in my rubba

Their shoes are too small. I was size 9 now I'm a size 11. Same with the rubbers. head banger yay

RE: When peaceful protests fall on deaf ears

You're welcome CW handshake

However I don't know if I agree with your scorched earth policy. uh oh help

laugh jk.
