I fully expected to see one Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner run up on stage and start smacking these guys for their reinterpretation of his baby.
Definitely tore it apart and put it back together differently.

I think the fun is that the basic song is a simple jumping-off point for jazzy hijink riffs. Imagine Joe Satriani kicking down the door, running onstage, and shredding mightily in the middle of the song… Same idea. Maybe. I’m not grabbed by most jazz.
I was hoping they’d jump off into the Peanuts theme, personally.

Because he’s an ass..
Just signed a petition to get a Democrat on the ballot for our state congressional district. He’s jumping in late because no one else has signed up for this district for the Dems. It’s a pretty red county, and he has to get 800 signatures to turn in by Monday to get on the ballot. Small businessman, has never run for office before. I don’t know how many volunteers he has going door-to-door for him, but we supplied two signatures and we wish him all the luck in the world.

The really alarming bit was that mobile Safari (i.e. the browser on your iPad or iPhone) cannot remove an Evercookie unless you fucking jailbreak the device. At least, as of the writing of the Ars Technica articles back in 2013.
I knew about Flash cookies (those goddam things are like cockroaches) which is why I use Flashblock, but I have gone back and forth with NoScript, because while it does increase my security, for day-to-day use, the modern web is soot&ashes without JavaScript.
Sigh.
BTW - there’s a really serious post by Thanos about “where does all the white rage go after Trump loses” over in the sidebar. It’s a topic that I have been thinking about a lot.
My response (crossposted here):
Circular firing squad. Put a group of paranoid, angry people with assault rifles into a public place, have lots of screaming and yelling going on, people pushing against barricades, cops yelling back and shoving with their big shields, a few batons smack heads, someone screams, a finger curls on a trigger …
It is in the seconds after the first shot rings out that anyone in Cleveland who has half a brain should fall to the ground and roll behind the nearest heavy concrete object.
That’s a lesson that I learned. Painfully. During riots in South America, more than 25 years ago.

He was the county sheriff here 20 years ago.

re: #33 ObserverArt
Oh, so he is a very intelligent dumbass.
Nope.
A raw IQ number tells you nothing unless you know the test taken. For example, a grownup taking a child’s IQ test will score high. Also, with the internet, there’s a ton of “tests” that don’t have any psychometric validity at all.
Second, part of knowing the test is knowing what is tests. Excellent spatial reasoning scores don’t make you a good accountant, and good computation scores don’t make you a geneticist.
Perhaps even more importantly, the basic skills evaluated by IQ tests don’t actually trump a learned and practice skillset. So “I have a high IQ” actually means nothing when it comes to a discipline with a deep, learned-over-years specialized skillset. Which is why internet assholes touting their IQs are generally spectacularly wrong.
Third, a lot of IQ tests are more developed to study low- to marginal- intelligence, not to evaluate above-average intelligence. So that “high IQ” is actually less meaningful on its face.
Looks like Chief is on the case of Baby Whiplash……

He’s talking about hazing. He uses terms like “violation of the taboo” and “intended to strip away all niceties of conversation,” but what he really means is hazing. He thinks it builds “intimacy & cohesion” because that’s the effect hazing is intended to produce among young, predominately male, gang-mentality subcultures. The abuse is both part of the self-selection process, anybody who won’t put up with it opts out, and is the mechanism by which those who stay are brainwashed into thinking they’re stronger for having allowed themselves to endure it.

Woo hoo! Getting my pooch soon. Weather blows (literally…with gusts 25 mph at times).
24 hours later and I am STILL hearing from Scott Adams fans on Twitter.
Yesterday I had the temerity to tweet Jake Tapper as I had the misfortune you seeing him interview Adams who suggested Trump will beat Hillary because people will see him as daddy and Hillary as mommy…and who do you go to when times are tough?
This was the exchange:
Hey @jaketapper will you be inviting other cartoonists on the air to espouse sexist nonsense or just @ScottAdamsSays ?

@ScottAdamsSays @jaketapper I disagree wholeheartedly with what you said and cannot fathom how it merited time on CNN.

So Adams point is “I am not sexist, I am saying EVERYONE ELSE is sexist”. Not only do I disagree, but I found it to be the most idiotic analysis of the political situation I have heard this season (and that is saying something) and not even worthy of the toilet bowl that is cable news.
Anyway, I am still getting HOW DARE YOU TRY TO STIFLE FREE SPEECH!!11! etc.

Trump is the symptom of GOP rot. He didn’t get support from the GOP as a whole unless they were already there. In fact, Cruz and Kasich hold similar positions on Islamophobia, women, abortion, etc.
And yes, Trump’s gone through every abortion position in 48 hours, but the one that suggests punishing women is the most accurate given the way the GOP wants to disassociate itself from it *wink wink*.

re: #67 goddamnedfrank
I admit not having any experience at all with your Boot, but I picked this up very early on in my military career, and it has absolutely defined my leadership style ever since.
SCHOFIELD’S DEFINITION OF DISCIPLINE
The discipline which makes the soldiers of a free country reliable in battle is not to be gained by harsh or tyrannical treatment. On the contrary, such treatment is far more likely to destroy than to make an army. It is possible to impart instructions and to give commands in such a manner and in such a tone of voice as to inspire in the soldier no feeling but and intense desire to obey, while the opposite manner and tone of voice cannot fail to excite strong resentment and a desire to disobey. The one mode or other of dealing with subordinates springs from a corresponding spirit in the breast of the commander. He who feels the respect which is due others cannot fail to inspire in them regard for himself; while he who feels, and hence manifests, disrespect toward other, especially his inferiors, cannot fail to inspire hatred against himself. -
But, I work a slightly different problem set than most of the military, so I admit YMMV.

Did some more testing and this is not Chuck’s doing - it’s coming from one of the ads on his site. It’s kind of hard to find info on it, but this turns out to be a common technique used by advertisers to track browsers across sites, and probably not something to be alarmed about.
Or at least, not any more alarming than most web ad techniques.
When you add tags to an uploaded image in your Image Library now, they’re also saved directly into the image file as an EXIF list of keywords. This way, if you download your image library, which you can do if you go to the Image Library link in the registered user menu at the top right of the page, the images will contain the tags you’ve added.
Just a way to export the tags along with the images when you download, so you might be able to use them in some other program that reads EXIF data.

That is so interesting. We had a dog stop in here, years ago, that was a male version of Jenny. He was pretty aggressive with people at first, but adopted my husband and never left him. He was killed after about 5-6 years, and my husband still mourns him. What breeds do they think Jenny is? I’ll look up a photo of our fellow…

So, we’re back from the NY Auto Show. Soooo much cool stuff. I took over 200 car and motorcycle pics. But this car was the best.
As we were leaving, we noticed another whole area we hadn’t seen, which housed the smaller cars - Scion, Fiat, Mini, Subaru and Mitsubishi. Someone took a Scion and turned it into the ‘Slayer Scion.’ Brilliant.

“…All parts of the plant are poisonous to varying degrees due to the presence of solanine which is a toxic alkaloid and one of the plant’s natural defenses. While ingesting any part of the plant can cause fever, headache, scratchy throat, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, ingesting the fruit can cause abdominal pain, circulatory and respiratory depression, or even death.”

“…I know that everybody is today talking about equality and we’ve got groups that are trying to make us believe that women are equal to men. However, that’s just not the case. God didn’t make us equal. It is ourselves, we have created this illusion of equality. And you want to know what the most powerful evidence of that there is? Simple biology. We have parts they don’t and vice versa. So right then and there you’ve got proof of God’s master plan.”

At #Ikea, it’s easy to lose yourself in the hypnotic, repetition of products everywhere. While some view the experience as overwhelming, the photographer @margeauxwalter sees it as a work of art — one she has chosen to capture in her photo series “Sign Language.” To re-enact the phenomenon of losing your identity amid a sea of #Ikea products, @margeauxwalter purchases rugs, furniture, flooring and other home goods from the store. She then stages elaborate scenes, for which she counts herself among the models. @margeauxwalter calls this photo “Patchwork.” This weekend, the @nytimes #lensblog and @cunyjschool are sponsoring #nyportfolio16, an annual portfolio review that provides photographers the opportunity to have their work seen and celebrated. This #nytweekender, we’ll be sharing more photos from participants at #nyportfolio16. Visit the link in our profile to see more of @margeauxwalter’s work.

Like complaining about the lack of ham sandwiches in kosher delis.
OT Drive-by:
Remember my comment yesterday about an Egyptian court banning demolition of churches and basing it on Sharia? I just saw the story below today, about a man in Malaysia whose parents converted to Islam when he was a child.
Note: Bidayuh is apparently “the collective name for several indigenous groups” who, according to Wikipedia, are primarily Christian. Syariah (as in “Syariah Court” in the article) is the the Malay spelling of Sharia.
Unknown to me until about 15 minutes ago, Malaysia has a dual justice system with the Syariah Court having jurisdiction only over Muslims and only in matters of personal law. In the states where Sharia criminal laws exist, they’re “limited to imposing fines for an amount not more than RM 5000, and imprisonment to not more than 3 years.” Sounds confusing, but I guess it works for them.
Court rules Sarawak Muslim convert has right to be Christian
KUCHING: A Sarawakian Bidayuh who was converted to Islam as a child has been granted a declaration that he is a Christian by the High Court here.
In her decision on a judicial review brought by Azmi Mohamad Azam @ Roneey, judge Datuk Yew Jen Kie said this was in accordance with the applicant’s constitutional right to freedom of religion as he was now an adult.
She also ordered the National Registration Department (NRD) to change the man’s name to Roneey Rebit and his religion from Islam to Christianity in his identity card.
In his application, Roneey had sought a declaration that he is a Christian, a letter of release from Islam from the Sarawak Islamic Religious Department and Sarawak Islamic Council, and orders compelling the NRD to change his name and religion in his identity card and its records.
The state religious authorities did not object to issuing the letter but the NRD had insisted on a letter of release and order from the Syariah Court.
Yew held that Roneey’s case was not one of jurisdiction but raised constitutional issues with regard to his right to religious freedom.
“He does not need a Syariah Court order to release him from Islam because freedom of religion is his constitutional right and only he can exercise that right,” she said on Thursday. […]
AFAIK no one is rioting over it or anything like that. Things are changing, slowly but surely. Okay, gotta go finish my timesheets now. Ugh.
