Living in an upside down world



It seems things have gotten a bit upside down.

I have been confused about the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life... so hate filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost it's collective mind! 

Somehow it's un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America. 

Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good. 

It was cool for Joe Biden to 'blackmail' the president of Ukraine, but it's an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it. 

People who never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.

People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took huge loans for their degrees. 

Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you'd better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated. 

Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process but any illiterate gangbangers who jump the southern fence are welcome. 

$5Billion for border security is too expensive but $1.5Trillion for 'free' health care is not. 

If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free. 

People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President. 

We see other countries going Socialist collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us. 

Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now. 

Criminals are caught and released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights. 

And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?! 

Nothing makes sense anymore, no morals, no civility. We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right. Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. Time is short, make your choice wisely!

California: A Model for the Rest of the Country, Part 2

Part 1 here . On Leaving the Golden State Guest Post by NicklethroweR . Posted on the Burning Platform. The fabled Ventura Highway is all that separates my artist loft from the beach where surfing first came to the United States. Both my balcony and front patio face the freeway at about eye level and I could easily smack a tennis ball right on to the ever busy 101. Access to the beach and boardwalk is very important to a Tourist Town such as mine and I can see one underpass from my balcony and another underpass from the patio. Further up the street are two pedestrian bridges. Both have been recently remodeled so that people can not use it to kill themselves by leaping down into traffic. The traffic, just like the spice, must flow and the elites that live here do not like to be inconvenienced as they dart about between Malibu and Santa Barbara. Another feature of living where I live would have to be the homeless, the insane and the drug addicts that wander this particular

Proper way to calculate CAGR using T-Sql for SQL Server

After reading (and attempting the solutions offered in some) several articles about SQL and CAGR,  I have reached the conclusion that none of them would stand testing in a real-world environment. For one thing, the SQL queries offered as examples are overly complex or don't use the correct math for calculating proper CAGR. Since most DBAs don't have an MBA or Finance degree, let me help.  The correct equation for calculating Compound Annual Growth Rate (as a percentage) is:  Some key points about CAGR:  The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) is one of the most accurate ways to calculate and determine returns for anything that can rise or fall in value over time. Investors can compare the CAGR of two alternatives to evaluate how well one stock performed against other stocks in a peer group or a market index. The CAGR does not reflect investment risk. You can read a full article about CAGR  here .  To calculate the CAGR for an investment in a language like VB is pretty straight
