Coanda, Tesla, and Navier-Stokes

Hey, Mr Rot, that was really inspiring that you mentioned the Navier-Stokes equation. You got me on a roll now. FCP GUT time!

What happens when Herr Rot is not minding the store

That is the question

Rotter look-alike tries his hand at Cartesian logick: Conservatives who suspect that Romney isn’t really in his heart of hearts one of us probably are correct. He doesn’t smell like a right-winger. But...

Rudy not happy: What the hell are you doing, Newt? I expect this from Saul Alinsky! This is what Saul Alinsky taught Barack Obama, and what you’re saying is part of the reason we’re in so much trouble right now.

Christmas and Wien

While there is still Christmas and Wien.

In honor of what is good, and of those moments when life is at one with the better angels of our nature.
Merry Christmas.

You missed out at lunch today, Tecs!

Stimulus money hard at work

$10 million borrowed from China to hand out truckloads of AK47s to the Zetas. Genius!

Sorry, Ben, You Heard it HERE First.

Crikey, FCP gets no respect. It must be because Rotter looks like Dangerfield.

"OttoMan to Basha da Balkans": Ah, Back to the Future

Some AKP politicians, according to a US assessment, support Turkish membership in the EU for "murky" and "muddled" reasons, for example because they believe Turkey must spread Islam in Europe. A US dispatch from late 2004 reports that a member of a leading AKP think tank said that Turkey's role is "to take back Andalusia and avenge the defeat at the siege of Vienna in 1683."

Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu largely shares this viewpoint and the Americans are alarmed by his imperialistic tone. In a summary of a speech by Davutoglu delivered in Sarajevo in January 2010, the US ambassador wrote: "His thesis: the Balkans, Caucasus and Middle East were all better off when under Ottoman control or influence; peace and progress prevailed. Alas the region has been ravaged by division and war ever since.... However, now Turkey is back, ready to lead or even unite. (Davutoglu: 'We will re-establish this (Ottoman) Balkan')."
