Ye Olde Videoe Clippe Threade
Jimbo requested a separate video clip thread for some of my collection of bizarre little video clips, and please add your own if you have 'em to share.
Modem users are encouraged to ignore this thread.
OK, you remember the original "Wassuuup" Budweiser commercial? The Superfriends version was passed along.
http://cellar.org/2003/WASSUP1.MPGVideo clips? Okay.
Dancing Robot Man (in WMV format)
First two kids: they suck. Watch for the guy in the red shirt.
Oh...my....GEEEEOD! That was too much!!! Thanks for sharing!!! :)
I was going to post a link to the all time classic 'Net video, George Gobel's page about lighting a charcoal grille with liquid oxygen, but it is gone...damn bandwidth Nazis...
The Ping Pong vid was *awesome*. Brilliant!
The *other* all time 'Net classic, the exploding whale...11 megs and change, but well worth it.
http://rezrov.perp.com/whale/whale-hi.movThis is actually my own, a little impromptu promo vid for a local band, but it will give you a taste of what I like to do (WMV format, 3 meg):

UT said A hilarious cat fight.
Black and white kitty " My kitty kung fu is stronger than your kung fu , see the ferocious forms , the terable speed , the grace , the ....... "
Orange cat " I don't think so grass hopper !!!"
Black and white kitty " OHH SHIT !! AHHHHHHH !!!!"
and the ping pong is
KILLER !!!!!!!!!
This clip is one second long, and demonstrates the very worst road kill possible. Do not watch if you are a fan of wild animals.

Although I found this funny, I thought REJECTED was funnier and worthy of committing to DVD.

I can't seem to "find" Hertzfeldt's other shorts. Are they "available"?
Oh, and now that you've seen the movie, go see the

Edit:
This guy has a couple more. Click 'Movies', scroll down to Hertzfeldt.
Every time I start watching that Hobbit video, I can't help but be transfixed by its awfulness until he end...

RealOne error: ClassFactory cannot supply requested class
Oh my, that's a great link. It goes to a real purty page with writin' on it. Wonder what it means?:p
Short answer: try this place:
http://koepi.roeder.goe.net/xvid.shtml
Long answer:
Terribly sorry, I wasn't paying attention. XVID is the open-source version of DIVX, but for some strange reason,
there are no official binaries -- the developers flatly refuse to supply an installer on their website. So every time I need the codec, it turns into a goose chase for the latest site with the latest installer. Should've just used DIVX ..
Dat do it.:thumb: Yeah, that's a neat clip. Can't wait to try a clip with sound. And as I've just proved, it's idiot proof!
For those with either broadband, or extreme patience, here's my first attempt at putting together some vid caps with Windows Movie Maker, complete with stupid titles and frivolous transitions. About 14 megs, 4.5 minutes, and if you love big radial engines, well worth the effort.
I apologize for left-channel-only sound. Not sure what happened there. It was my first time, after all.

Elspode...one comment. Fifi is a Boeing B-29 Superfortress, not a Stratofortress. That is a Boeing B-52. Other than that, good footage man.
If you want even better stuff, there exist video and audio recordings of various WWII aircraft
here and
here . I would enjoy any of these for my half-birthday. Hint hint, Dag.
Brian
Poor cat, damn shame he didn't took that fuckhead with him.
yeah, that's pretty fucking brutal.
I don't know why that makes me so angry... I don't usually have a problem with hunters, etc...
but that clip just makes me want to beat the living hell out of those jackasses.
Well...at least the lion tried. Terribly overpowered, but he tried anyway.

Damn...I think I may have known that once...it kicked around in my mind, and then I did a web search on Google for B 29 Stratofortress, saw one come up first on the list (

Hold on a sec, you've got a couple nits ..
The movie was completely blown out in the middle parts, and overly bright at the beginning and end. Either the camera can't handle daylight, or your processing didn't compensate well. (Or my player hosed the playback, even though I tried to adjust it.) Also, you'll want to look into a wind-proof mic if you do much more of that.
But I liked the transitions .. though the material was dry, you didn't linger on anything long enough to make it boring.
Those cocksuckers had better have eaten that lion, because if they just shot it because they are upset about having little dicks, I'm gonna be pretty unhappy about it.
Don't get me wrong, I'm pro-hunting, but not pro-trophy hunting.

No, it was just so damn bright outside, I couldn't tell I was overexposing the stuff. I don't use the camcorder enough to actually get good with it. I mostly just wanted to share the coolness of all those big ass engines running, and the contrast of the old high-tech with the new.
that was a pretty cool clip there els:thumb: i missed our airshow down here this year, won't miss it next year though!

Els:
I trophy hunt, but with a very different type of gun. Those shitheads are using rifles.
Did anyone else notice what appears to be a game fence in the background? This looks like a 'canned' hunt.
Sick, just fucking sick.
Yeah, I notice that, too. Bunch of shit eaters hunting somebody's former pet that got too big and expensive to feed, I'll bet.
I hope one of those stupid pricks shoots themselves in the forehead while cleaning out their penis substitute.

Poor truckie... what was that guy thinking? I mean, what's the reasoning behind the destruction of that nice truck?
[SIZE=3]STUPIDITY.[/SIZE] :rolleyes:
I'm gonna take a wild guess and say..."stolen".
Watching the video again a couple of times, I've noticed something that would have made it a lot funnier. When the truck hits the telephone pole, the back end bounces up pretty high, and the back end bounces toward the 'driver'.
Wouldn't it have been a hoot if it had come down on him? I mean, he didn't get clear by more than a couple of feet. I think they should try it again, only the guy should stay on the truck.
I was very disappointed by that as well ... you can't actually tell if the rear tire landed on him or not. There is a slight stutter, and what appears to be a still of him standing up afterward, but it's hard to tell. We watched the clip on autorepeat a lot tonight at work.

I have always regretted not having the opportunity to serve my country as you did - my father was career Army. After 9/11, my wife, who is originally from Iran, bought me the "Precious Moments" figurine of a Marine. She knew what I wanted to do (but couldn't) after 9/11 after seeing me "lose it" on more than one occasion. And my poor wife saw her best friend blown to bits in front of her very eyes by a missle from Saddam during the Iran-Iraq war.
Thanx for your service to our country and thank God for 30mm cannons!!

They are as strong as they look.
Late on the bandwagon I know, but this reminds me of one time when I worked for an offshore firm. I was shipped (flown actually) to a drilling platform and a bunch of rednecks were sitting around watching a "hunting" film. The thrust of it was to take 20 or so dogs, fun a wild pig down until it was so tired it couldn't move and then kill it with a well placed knife in the heart.
Now, my point is this. People don't really hunt any more. technology has taken us to the point where it isn't a sport or hunting, it's a harvest.
I find it interesting how the definitions, or meanings, of things change over time but the words don't shift with them.
Those fucktards, in either case, have found an easy and safe way to satisfy a social need at the expense of both the animal's life and the dilution of the word.
Ever flown on a plane and witnessed the wings flex with turbulence? Well, they can flex quite a lot before there is any need for concern.
Snap!
Not a large wing, true, but still impressive. I'm still searching for images of Boeing tests in which the wingtips practically touch the roof of the hanger during the test.

Naw, they don't trust me not to sully their name.:)
looks like a carbon fiber wing for a glider. one time, before i learned to fly, i was going to visit my best friend in paris and travel a little bit. on take off here in houston on a 747 the damn wing was flexing up and down up and down. that freaked me out a little bit but pretty amazing with the flexibility and all....
I see comedy is dead in europe, also.

I agree, Els. It was different, kind of funny and showed he'd put some effort and practice into it.

How long must we wait for Sockbaby 3?
According to Channel 101, we may not because it was not deemed good enough after reviews.
The message board indicates that it was wildly popular and that the author, Doug Tennapel (creator of Earthworm Jim), will create the third and final episode for all to see.
I hope its true, because I really want to see if they get to food up or not.
...and for those interested,
here is an interesting page on the creation of Sockbaby!

Kind of did the same for me, but I'm not sure why. A couple of others have told me they are positive it was faked, but they haven't given their reasoning why.
It's the same-old same-old: skillfully cropped and edited (with ridiculous cuts) to accurately portray one person's narrative of the situation, complete with quick cuts, editing a single camera's film and audio to make it look like a 3-camera TV drama, and a grave announcer to give us the twist.

Grave annoucer? That guy is awesome!
But yeah, I get what you're saying. Possibly the "stealing wood" story doesn't match up. Getting your car crushed for looting doesn't seem right, but I figure its quite a bit more lienient than the usual penalty for the crime.
Well the other narrative here is larger, which is that while harsh, this sort of justice may be necessary for a short period of time in the lack of any justice whatsoever.
that's couldnt be real. but it sure looks it. anyone know how they make it look so real? it's not real, is it?

I stumbled across this sometime back. Very cool. The wife wants lots of stuff...
Possibly the coolest
car ad.
I'm sure Bullitt will agree with me.
(at least one of the servers that had the ad earlier today no longer is reachable ... hopefully these guys will keep it available.)
Um...would that be called the quick and the dead? :rolleyes:
That's a cool car ad, but
"Cog" is
the coolest car ad.
No, that is a neat car ad. The Cornfield one is cool.
I'm having a moral crisis. I can't decide if the Steve McQueen driving the new Mustang thing is cool or merely disturbing.
I'm having a moral crisis. I can't decide if the Steve McQueen driving the new Mustang thing is cool or merely disturbing.
Put me down for disturbing. There's nothing cool about
using someone after they are dead. Its only one level short of digging him up, plastering him over, applying some makeup and duct-taping him into the driver's seat.
Regarding the ad itself, he doesn't speak during the commercial (which is kind of eerie) and his eyes don't look in the "right" direction and he is "lit" differently than the background. Its just bad cinema. And I doubt his estate or survivors are being compensated which makes it all the more disgusting.
Just when you thought they couldn't go any lower, they continue to surprise.
OH Beestie , that rainbow clip is , so Plucking WRONG !!!!!!!!
Some body HAD to know what they were saying !!!!!!!!!
I don't think the website is correct. I think that was made as an in-joke for the cast and crew, and not aired.
steve mcqueen's family is making a mint from Ford. they started that with the Bullitt edition mustang they put out in 2001 and have continued with the new commercials.
I think Steve would approve and from what I've read the new mustang is worthy of him considerable driving skills. :)
I received a video from a cop friend in my email.
It was just titled "Lesson Learned the Hard Way."
I was originally going to upload it to my webspace, and link to it, but searched around and found that others had
already taken care of that.
The link does not go directly to the video. ogrish.com requests that the video be downloaded and then viewed. There is a story providing explanation of the event.
I didn't have the luxury of seeing that beforehand.
I didn't know what was coming.
Oh man.
Once I saw it, though, I gathered my coworkers around and we watched it about a half-dozen times.
May be too intense for some viewers.
I will probably show it to as many people as I can at work. We haven't had anything like this happen, but we've come close. Good searches are amazingly iimportant.
A couple of weeks ago three large hunting knives and a pouch full of rifle ammo was found on the unit.
In the past we've found other knives, a sabre saw, and an assortment of smaller improvised weapons. Yes, you really can sharpen a toothbrush handle.
Jesus H Christ! I can see a knife or sharpened toothbrush handle slipping by but there is no excuse for them not finding that gun. That large gun. :eek:
I know. If it had been a teeny weeny gun, like one of the NAA Derringers, or even a .32 that had been nestled carefully in his manly parts, I could almost understand missing it in a search. That was a goddamned 1911 in his freaking waistband!!
I do physical searches, of both males and females, primarily pat-downs. We don't typically do a strip in the foyer or lobby prior to an evaluation, but it has been necessary for some clients who have a known history of smuggling either drugs or weapons. Usually the strip search is part of nursing's job on an admission ... that's why an admission shower is part of the policy. It's certainly nice to put clean, less smelly people onto the unit, but it also cuts down on contraband.
Oh, and we often do find stuff on patients that cops miss.
Mr. Slave would tell those burger whores where to get off. I like porn as much as the next guy but I really hate being SOLD STUFF with it. Overstock.com, WTF are you kidding me? People are going to stop watching TV commercials altogether soon and that time cannot come soon enough.

I am *NOT* a firearms specialist, so...
Why would he be limping? I imagine if he'd actually shot himself in the foot, he wouldn't be walking, nevermind limping. Could a near hit hurt enough to make a big tough guy like that limp?

I think it's funny that he wears a helmet. Like that'll do him a damn bit of good.
...I think it's funny that he wears a helmet. Like that'll do him a damn bit of good.
The helmet may not do
him any good but at least it will keep his noggin in tact and help whoever finds his tattered remains identify him. :rollhappy
It might keep his autonomic functions going long enough for the transplant team to harvest whatever is salvageable.
I would bet if he's going to lose it, that would happen in the first 50 feet at moderate speeds. The helmet would be a big help there. I've had the dubious pleasure of traveling on blacktop at 85mph, unencumbered by a vehicle, with relatively minor damage. It did grind the visor snaps off the helmet, though. :bonk:
If that dude in shorts had hit the pavement going that fast he would have been nothing but a bloody 100+ft skid mark !!!!!
That being said , I WANT ONE !!!!!!!
I could just imagen some of the gear heads around here , sooped camerios and the such , sitting at a stop lite , i pull up next to them on one of these , flip up the visor , grin and say " lets GO when the lite turns green !!!!" Then i SMOKE them !!!!!!!
I don't think there's enough ammo in the world for me to get that good.
But I'd be willing to spend the time trying, if I could get a corporate sponsor.

Yeah, thats all he uses in any of the clips. Its disturbing.
I think he swapped cylinders rather than a speed loader. :confused:
I thought I heard brass drop. I'll have to watch it again.
Either way, that's inhumanly fast.
dude is useing pre loaded moon clips , i think .
I can't make a speed loader work ANY where near as fast ;)
From his
site;
Before his '86 attempt, Boyd Davis of EMF Distributors expressed his belief that splitting a playing card in flight would be impossible for someone to do. To the delight of the spectators, Munden told Davis that not only could he do it, but that he could do it with Davis's gun. Boyd Davis is one of the creators of the fun End of Trail, cowboy-action shooting's world championship and EMF is one of the primary sponsors. Munden borrowed Davis's gun, a .45 Dakota single-action with a 4-3/4" barrel. On the fourth try he split the card -- an ace of hearts. This has to be one of the greatest exhibition shots ever done and is included in his videos.
:eek:
Compared to this guy, we all suck at the gun range.
That guy is
Jerry Miculek, he's a 12 time International Revolver Champion and holds 5 revolver speed shooting world records. Truely awesome shooter, you'd have to do an awful lot of shooting to get anywhere near as good as him....but I'd be willing to give it a shot too, if someone would be willing to buy the ammo. ;)
You're right 404, I stand corrected. :blush:
Didn't mean to rain on your parade Bruce, but I knew who that was right away because I'm a big revolver fan and have enjoyed watching Miculek for some time now. BTW, he was using a S&W 625 .45ACP with full moon clips, no speed loaders needed.
Back in the day I shot competition PPC matches and the occasional combat match for the prison with a fellow officer and gunsmith friend of mine. We both used revolvers exclusively and did quite well against most of the auto loaders. Reloading a cylinder with speed loaders as fast as an auto takes a lot of endless practice standing in the living room every night with your holster on and dropping empties on the rug.
Hummm...maybe that's why I'm not married anymore....nah. :rolleyes:

Full moon clips? (not a revolver owner)
The full moon is on the back.

Always happy to help.
one of my clients is a western shooter. he has a variety of carry pieces that are semiauto, but his competition is always with revolvers. hecasts his own ammunition. what a very cool process to watch.
revolvers can always be shot faster than semi-autos because the cycle time on an auto is always the same. Recoil pushes back the slide and ejects the round, then the slide has to come back forward while encountering the resistance of the fresh round coming from the magazine and into the chamber. Revolvers are as fast as the fingers shooting them.
There's a guy who has beat Miculek in competition - Bud Bond. He beat him in 2001, I believe. Bud had all his gun work done at the shop I worked at, so we had his little plaque hanging up for quite a while. He and the owner have since had a falling out (EVERYONE eventually has a falling out with this owner, including me) so I don't know what's become of Bud.
Full moon clips? (not a revolver owner)
The .45 ACP (Autoloading Colt Pistol) round is designed with a recessed rim for auto loaders and as such they would not seat in the cylinder of a revolver. The rounds can clipped into the moon clips shown here and then you can just drop all 6 rounds into the cylinder of revolver chambered for the .45 like a ready made speed loader. The tool shown with the clips is for extracting the spent shells from the clip, kind of like a little pry bar, since they click in fairly tight. You can get full, half and even quarter moon clips but why anyone would want the latter is beyond me.

Reloading is the only way to go if you do a lot of shooting. With the cost of factory ammo nowadays you could never afford to get good enough for most competition shooting events. I've saved tons of money by casting bullets and reloading my own ammo. It's almost as much fun as the shooting...almost. ;)
Didn't mean to rain on your parade Bruce,....
No problem there, I'd rather have the right poop. :)

Smaller pocket bulge, maybe?
Cool discussion on moon clips . I have wanted a SW 610 (.10mm revolver) for a long time , i don't see them comeing up for sale much tho .
When the 10mm round first hit the market I ran out and bought a Colt 10mm Delta Elite in stainless steel and all the reloading equipment and brass to go with it. I liked it okay but being a revolver guy I ended up trading it in for a S&W 657, .41 mag. and have been kicking myself in the ass ever since for getting rid of the Colt. When the .40S&W round came out I ran out and got a S&W 4006, it's a great carry gun and I love the .40 round ballistics but it's still an auto. The S&W 610 came out for a short time in the early 90's and I missed getting one at the time but they have since begun producing them again. It's definitely on my "gotta have one" list because it's the best of both worlds in the .40 caliber field. Not only will it shoot the 10mm but .40S&W and the 10mm 'lite'. Very versatile revolver, good choice, Zippyt. You might try the
S&W dealer locator for starters to find one.
Here's a clip that
works well with the thread title.
Damn, that "Requiem for a Dream" music is good.
I'm confused -- was that a really long car commercial, or something else entirely?
hey guys, know it's been a while but here's one i came across the other day....haven't been in the cellar lately so i don't know if it's old or not...but if your a pulp fiction fan you'll love this!
Pulp HockeyIn case you were wondering
what this was likeWow. Is the tazer actually shooting the wire out at the person? I always pictured those little arc-shaped things from the 80s that you had to physically reach out and touch the person with.
This is the new tazer gun, yes. It shoots two hooks on wires into the bad guy (or sometimes just out of control guy. I've had several patients tazered, and they weren't bad, just nuts) and then runs current through the wires.
There is a contact mode to the tazer gun I think, but it's safer for the user to shoot and let the device do the work.
I have a still picture of someone I know getting zapped, but it's somewhere in the morass of my hard drive.
Since I have dial-up at home I save the video clips to look at for work. If you go to the tazer site you can download a whole bunch of clips from there.
My two favorites are the drunk and domestic one and the bull.
I have read about a new prototype of taser that will project dual lines of plasma along which the current will flow...no wires.
Cool.

Cool.
If we're thinking of the same thing, then it's a particle projector, a lighning gun so to speak. The laser lines up on the target, ionizing the particles in the air and creating a channel for the arc to follow. Not that I would know about such things...
Interesting...can you send me any more information about those things about which you do not know? :D
I thought the fact that it shot out the darts/wires, is what made a Taser a taser. I mean that's what separated it from the dozens of other electrical gizmos that will knock you down but require up close and personal contact.
The plasma lines would be an order of magnitude leap, if they will go through a chainlink fence and wind/strong draft. Maybe even reflect them off a plate glass window or mirror. :grinnylov
So what if one wore a suit of tinfoil? Would the taser find its shortest path of resistance and burn itself out?

This song's for you.
[INDENT]V.F.D.
Written by Michelle Shocked
Me and my friend and this boy named Eddie
We was bored one afternoon
We was sitting in the hay
It was a hot Texas day
And we was playing with matches like some kids do
We would throw our matches in the high dry grass
Close our eyes and count to ten
And then race the burning field
Doin' the toe and heel
We'd die laughing
We'd do it all over again
I'm singing
Where there's smoke there's sure to be a fire
Ready, steady, go, it was down to the wire
We was racing inevitability
We was making trouble for the V.F.D.
(That's the Volunteer Fire Department, now)
Oh, I'm sure that you know how this story goes
Our little fire ran out of control
Somebody called for the V.F.D.
It was not me, it weren't me, Jack
A-ha, they drive from fifteen miles away
So when they arrive, I'm sorry to say
That the field was black
Yes, and the sky was grey
And you know those barns they store hay in...?
A-ha, the volunteers all shook their heads
And then I recall one of them said
"This fire was no accident
No, this fire started with a match"
I slowly backed into the crowd
Me and Eddie we looked at each other
We never mentioned it to this day
But my friend, she went and told her mother all
Jesus!
(Can you believe that?)
She said
"Where there's smoke there's sure to be a fire
Ready, steady, go, it was down to the wire
We was racing inevitability, ma
We was making trouble for the V.F.D., ma
We was raising insurance premiums, ma
We was spreading fear of arson
We was spreading fear of arson
All around Kelsey"[/INDENT]

I just thought the effects of the ipecac were interesting.
From here. Just curious, how many tablespoonsful do you think were in the bottom of that bottle? 10? 20? More? Compared to the oral dosage of 1-2 tablespoons, repeated once after twenty to thirty minutes, would you consider this an overdose? Perhaps it was diluted with water. The effects didn't seem diluted in any way. I hope that f*cker gave him his money.
The dose of ipecac will be different for different patients. Follow your doctor's orders or the directions on the label. The following information includes only the average doses of ipecac. If your dose is different, do not change it unless your doctor tells you to do so.
* For oral dosage form (syrup):
o For treatment of poisoning:
+ Adults and teenagers—The usual dose is 15 to 30 milliliters (mL) (1 to 2 tablespoonfuls), followed immediately by one full glass (240 mL) of water. The dose may be repeated one time after twenty to thirty minutes if vomiting does not occur.

When I was
young and dumb, we did something like this for fun. It turned out a little different, thankfully. We went to a big parking lot at the mall. I was driving a 1969 VW Beetle at the time. I noticed that if I was backing up and had the wheel cranked all the way to the left or right (left was easier, I don't dare say safer, because the driver's door was then on the inside of the circle) and eased out the clutch, the car would obediently idle along in a nice circle. And thanks to some interesting German geometry in the steering, there was no inclination for the steering to return to center. I leave the why as an exercise for the mechanical engineers in the audience.
Putt putt putt putt around she went. The car had small but functional running boards on it and we stood on them, waving to each other in our little one car circular parade. I don't know who was the first one to step off, but once we did, we found the car utterly unimpressed with its new driverless condition.
Putt putt putt putt, round and round and round. At idle the little car chugged along about as fast as a fast walk. We pretened it was a bull as we waved an imaginary cape in front of it. Putt putt putt. We pretened to be scared of the car and ran away (in a circle, of course) from it as it "chased us down". Thank god no one tripped and fell. Though light, the little car didn't have much ground clearance and we would have had some serious scrapes at best.
Run run run, putt putt putt. I was running away from it and getting a little dizzy going in circles, and I stopped for a moment, since I had a pretty big head start. Well as the car backed toward me, instead of running away again, I stepped toward the advancing back bumper, up onto the license plate light, the rear window and with another step was on top of the car!
Putt putt putt putt. I went around once, but because I was laughing so hard, we were all laughing, and because there was nothing to hold onto up there, I walked forward to the windshield, stepped down onto the hood, made a bit of a left turn to the inside front fender and then jumped off.
Everybody got a turn, no one got run over, the car didn't get any permanent dents, and we didn't even get in trouble with the mall security. Man, that was fun. I miss that little old car. Putt putt putt.

Another Google Video star. This guy's got mad skillz.
The tourist that taped the video has mad skills too. How hard would it be to get up off the damn bench so we could get a clear view without all the foot traffic getting in the way? What a lazy ass.
I started looking through google video and found
the Archive of American Television interview with Fred Rogers. It's a long one -- 9 parts, each 30 minutes.
He was one of the coolest, gentlest people who ever lived. I'd watch the whole thing if I had time, but I'm at work so I had to turn it off after the first part. He really had a gift for pulling you into his world and keeping you mesmerized, and he's not doing it deliberately -- he's just Mister Rogers.
Yes! It's easy to make fun of Mr. Rogers, and a lot of people have. But the man was awesome. Every day, he used his show to make people's lives better. He wasn't peddling anything. He didn't have lots of action figures to sell. He wasn't an attention whore with a big ego. He was just a simple man, trying to get kids started off on the right foot in life by building up their self esteem while teaching them a little about how the world worked.
She used to cross paths with Fred Rogers.
That's right. She lived in Mister Roger's Neighborhood.
I used to sit with a guitar while the kids were watching and try to play along with kids shows theme music. Barney was very unimaginitive. Sesame Street (esp. the old theme) had blues ties, but Mr. Roger's music was tough to follow along. It's jazz related, but it's the kind of jazz that fits with what you would expect from a 1950's presbyterian music major.
I remember when it used to be in black and white. It took a couple years longer to switch over than the commercial stations.
did you know that Fred Rogers was the original drummer for Led Zeppelin before John Bonham joined?
My dorm in college was up the block from the place Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood was filmed.

Holy Shit!Wow.. that window washing video is crazy.
I randomly clicked on a link on that page and found
this amusing article about a 19-year-old who used a barcode program he downloaded to try buying an iPod for $4.99. Gee, don't you think that'd be just a tad suspicious? :P
But what's really amusing is the statement he wrote to police:
[INDENT]"I will NEVER EVER DO THIS EVER AGAIN and I am once more terribly sorry," Baldino wrote. "Please let me go for I am terribly sorry!!! I'm only a kid! Help me out. I just want to go home. I did this not knowing of the serious penalty that lies behind it. Please! Please! Please!"[/INDENT]
:P
Aren't we all searching for
balance?Those were both awesome, BigV! :)
Thank you ToastyKen. I must give credit to SonofV, the Elder, home for the holidays just yesterday. We spent the morning swapping computer stuff. I reckon there'll be plenty more to come. I only included those two 'cause they came up early in the conversation. Glad you enjoyed them, I sure did!
Aren't we all searching for balance?
I enjoyed this one. It was strangely appealing.
Very nice animations! Liked them both, but the first a little bit more... ;)
Bowing to your helpfulness, ToastyKenSan...

That's really interesting, I ....wait a minute...THAT'S MY FREAKING CAR!!!!
I was wondering if they rigged that car to explode. I always thought that exploding vehicles with gunfire was a Hollywood gimmick.
I do think the 9-year-old girl shooting the 50 cal was a little disturbing.
BTW, the scariest sound wasn't the pop-pop-pop, it was the buzzsaw sound I heard. That must have been at least 1200 rpm. It sounded like a WWII MG42 'burp' gun.

I also liked the trailer for

Thank you zippyt!
I laughed til I cried about the injured fellow. I watched that maybe 20 times. Worst job was actually funnier the second trip through, when I called DaughterofV over to watch. Couldn't keep a straight face. Don't miss the battle of the sexes one, either.
I liked them all. The two chinese guys lyp sinching has SonofV on an absolute tear of lip synching. God. I just burned him an mp3 cd of about 70 tracks he chose from my iTunes library. He's standing right here performing them all. Latest: "but I'm gonna need a chorus!" :chuckles: He's lovin the mp3 capable radio boombox from Santa (yes, Santa). Frankly, we're both very entertained. Maybe his video will get posted miming Kung Fu Fighting or Brick House. You should see him. Hysterical.
I saw "Lotus versus Apache. " on sat tv this summer ,
Check out their web site at ,
http://www.topgear.com/
Worth the look ,
Look for the vid of a Mits Evo - v - a Lambo , VERRRRRRRRRRY Cool !!!!!
I called my wife in to see the battle of the sexes , her comments were " well you can't blame a guy for trying !!!"
Top Gear is fantastic, I remember them doing that and racing against a Harrier jump jet!
You should see some of their other stuff to, blowing up caravans every other week, plus trying to destroy a Toyota pick-up and failing (even after putting in the roof of a 20 storey block of flats before it was demolished!)
I love the diet hot-rod on the first page of Carbage, so pitiful :).
I saw the Whole Toyota pickup thing , they beat the HELL out of that thing and it just kept GOING !!!!!
One of the most impressive was when they put a Mits. Evo against a Lambo , The Evo not only kept up ( with its 4 cylinder engine -v- the 10 cylindes ?? in the lambo ) ,
but I think bested the Lambo
Aerobics with orca. Sorry for faulty link before.
Look. Just MOVING that amount of weight has GOT to be difficult. Actually, though she has reeeeeeeeeeeeally let herself go, I admire her willingness to exercise--and IN THAT OUTFIT! Wow! I loves me some denial.
Not to mention she is doing it in front of a camera.
I admire her for her willingness to be filmed that way, even if she had no idea it would end up on the internet. Takes a real confident person. I don't admire her for letting herself go like that. It's not healthy.
You have to wonder about a person's mental wellbeing when they willingly put themselves out there knowing they will be the butt of a joke :eek: :eek: (pun intended)
Most Professional comedians do exactly that, like Carrot Top or Lucy. :D
At least they get paid - this poor girl just has no self worth, its just sad...
Her current condition may be the result of having lost a great deal of weight as well. That may have been excess skin.
No that WAS bluber , fat , babby got WAY to MUCH back !!!!!!

Hey, she's got a pretty good TV, and I bet it has all the pay channels too. You know there's plenty of food and beer in the fridge, and honestly, she looks like a very comfortable sofa.

The model tower video, you just see it coming, poor guy watches his masterpiece crumble. Still funny though :lol:.
As I watched the tower one, I couldn't help but feel the whole thing was staged. The "reporter" seemed to go out of his way to knock the tower down.
It was a set up, don't know if the reporter was
in on it but I think so. When was the last time you saw a reporter without a wireless mike or a mike with a cord the size of 12-3 cable. :eyebrow:
When I visited my dentist recently, I was telling him about my new project making on-board motorcycle videos. He's an avid skydiver, and offered to let me watch a DVD

He was right.Aw that was just another part of the great space hoax and I even know how they did it. They built a space/desert set and then filmed Tinkerbell flying in. :D

I think that
this kid might be spending a little bit too much time on that game.
Doesn't look like he's very good at it either. It's in German or Norwegian or something, so I can't tell what he's freaking out about, but it looks like he might be lagging, then getting killed as a result.
At any rate, his parents need to maybe....i dunno...turn it off for awhile.
Gromitspapa --
Those are very funny. I like the purple plastic nutsack hanging from the back of THE FLAME. And on the third one, the flyer, I think they de-tuned the trebuchet so the landing would happen in the frame. Too bad, properly engineered, that car could have been flung much further.
To the others in the audience similarly inclined to trebuchet fever, I'll
fling out this link.mrnoodle --
What a scary video! Actually, I've seen it in my own home. I wonder why make the tape in the first place. For someone *that* far gone, reason is a faded memory, and seeing themselves in the throes of agony would have little effect. You're right. Pull the plug. Time for an intervention.
I assume you're talking about mrnoodle's link, V. Maybe the clip is to show the shrink. :)
That kid speaks german, but I think it's faked...
And that german engineer reminds me of the neonazis in Big Lebowski...
I think that this kid might be spending a little bit too much time on that game.
Why do you think they call it World of Warcrack?
I liked it when he busted the ESC key off the keyboard and then carefully placed it back on because he still needed it.
Hmm, I doubt that was WoW. Unless he radically changed his keyboard settings, he didn't look as though he was playing WoW. Besides, the BGM in that game does not sound like WoW BGM.
Jet powered batsuit...
...because leaping out of a helicopter and soaring down the mountainsides at low altitude and high speeds just wasn't crazy enough.
At the end of the second video, he says he maintained forward flight at a constant altitude of 2000 meters for around 30 seconds. Amazing.
Looking at the background, at the end of the second video, I wonder if that's where he landed? It looks pretty populated. :mg:
Oh my god that is even more funny than the backyard rollercoaster!!
I like how he just drops and it seems like nothing is happening - and then zooooom! He becomes a speck on the horizon.

The kid's got potential, if he doesn't get beaten up first. (For those not familiar with The Magic Flute, the piece he's singing is a) very famous and b) usually sung by a woman.)
A mother's plea for the killing of Sarasto. Wonderful!
But he won't have a voice like that for long. He already has some problems, but nevertheless it's beautiful.
Wow. I almost popped a hernia watching it! I especially like the open vowel ah-ah-aha-h-ah-ah-ah sections. What a beautiful voice. I wonder if Kevin in Sin City sounded that way. :snark:
Methinks they should lengthen his suspenders. ;)
Opera sure lost a lot after the pope outlawed castrati.

Wow, check out the

Historically, women were not allowed to perform opera so the women's parts were always performed by pre-pubescent boys. It may be that traditional opera training limits the curriculum for boys to women's parts until they are older. He might also consider some martial arts training to balance his vocal training, though.:)
Blind guitarist should hook up with
Bill Clements, the one-handed bass player. (Warning: extreme talent)
Damn, UT. Think of all the things you could be doing with the other hand. :mg:
With that hand? Like what? Crushing a can? :lol:
But damn cool playing
I don't understand. What's he plucking the strings with?
His (only) left hand.
He could probably fit a pick to the prostethis, but that wouldn't be as cool.
But what about when he has a fingering that requires his pinky to go down? Is his pinky always plucking and it just looks like it's pressing down on the strings?
When you push down or "fret" the string fast and hard enough, it will ring the string a little without having to pluck it. It's known as "hammering on". This guy has a bandanna around the top of the neck so the strings don't vibrate unless he's doing that. So he can turn up and get the most out of the hammer on.
My fingers are tired just from watching that. Leet shredding skills. If he could figure out a way to get a little more attack on the notes, he'd be better than 90% of all bassists, and with only half the arms. He's still better than most. Kinda makes me feel like a dolt for not practicing.
I just saw the blind guitarist
:eek:
I have a hard time with some of that stuff playing with my eyes open and my hand where it's "supposed" to be. I *still* suck at sweep picking. Damn. Back to the woodshed.
BTW, why do blind guitarists play with their hands upside down?
why do blind guitarists play with their hands upside down?
I was wondering that for awhile, then I was wondering why everybody else doesn't? :bass:
I can't see either video from work, but I am aware of an amazing blind guitarist, Jeff Healy (he's rather well known in fact, not the least of reasons being his appearance in "Roadhouse", the Patrick Swazey barfight movie). He plays with the axe flat on his lap, plucking with one hand and fretting with the other. It is a much more traditionally percussive sort of technique, akin to hammering-on ala Stanley Jordan, but with plucking thrown in as well.
Talent pisses me off. People who have it piss me off even more. :lol:

Though it looks like need for speed with traffic ,
WAAAAAAAY COOL !!!!
I would SOOOOO Love to do this !!!!
Incidentally, it seems that the director <a href="http://www.chasecam.com/rendezvous/automobilereview.html">admitted to being the driver</a>, and it wasn't really a Ferrari, but <a href="http://www.geocities.com/oflint/index.html">his own Mercedes</a>, though with Ferrari sounds dubbed over. (You can tell the soundtrack is edited together if you listen carefully.) Also, here's an interesting <a href="http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2005/Rendezvous.shtml">analysis of speed</a>.
Thanks for the links, Ken! An interesting story...
I didn't watch this through to the end, but I saw enough of it to know that it is the same film that my brother in law brought home from the library back in the early 80's on a 16mm film. At the end, the driver gets out of the car and goes up to meet a girl (apparently, that was tossed in to give the appearance that there had been a reason for the hot ass driving through Paree, and end the film with a little giggle). Did that occur in the linked version?

Crash Compilation #1
Crash Compilation #2
Crash Compilation #3 (warning: Crazy Frog0
Crash Compilation #4 (same warning)
Actually, there are tons of these videos. zomg.
my favorite of all of em was in the 4th compilation (i hate that frog though), where the bicyclist tried to push the other one over. They both fell, and then one of the bystanders pwned the pusher.
Anyone who stands along the side of the road during a rally is just asking to be killed.
Oh somewhere i saw a crash compilation video with a guy ona dirtbike flying up a ramp, at the apogee of his flight he kicks his legs back, tucks them in again and lands inside his van which was parked next to his landing ramp. You see the van lurch forward a bit.
I can't remember which of the 8 trillion video sites it was on.

The Incredible Machine! Rube Goldberg would be proud.
Wow, theat was amazing. When I was in college one of my techers gave us an assignment the first day of class to build a "golfball machine" where balls numbered one through six had to be set loose simultaneously and arrive at the other end of the machine in a new order, something like 3,1,6,5,2,4.
The machine had to reset itself so it could go a second time without any adjustments. He gave us two days to be finished.
After we had our designs figured out and built, it still took hours of finessing to get the things to work every time.
I bet that video represents months of work. Really astounding too, the use of everyday objects, books as ramps, etc.
I'd like to see the discovery channel program on that one. Obviously the person who built it doesn't have access to the cellar.
who remembers potato cannons?
We used to make Tennis ball cannons , we had to stop when we got the bright Idea of sorking a tennis ball in Karoseen over nite " It will look SOOOO F'n COOL flying thru the air !!!"
It did untill it rolled under that parked car :eek:

Sorry...I should have quoted the video ref. I am a page or two behind. The link entitled "wrongness", not the least of which reason being the shareware-like delay before you see the video of some idiot numchuking with a pair of tube socks instead of sticks on a chain.
And, in keeping with my lateness on this...the eepybird video is *awesome*.

You know, I'm pretty fond of most creatures that tend to produce phobias, like snakes and spiders and such. But for some reason centipedes really creep me out. I think it might the the way they move so fast, and they're really agressive. If I saw a centipede like the ones in the videos I would either be running or it would be dead on sight.

p'raps the wrenchers in the house would comment on the lack of fork angle and how that makes the bike respond like that, please?
It's probably a stunt bike unless the Germans build their bikes with a small angle neck. There is enough angle to have a "fall away" when raised off the floor and left to it's own devices, though.
Either way, she's really, really good. :D
p'raps the wrenchers in the house would comment on the lack of fork angle and how that makes the bike respond like that, please?
I think you mean fork RAKE, which is the curvy bit at the end. Fork rake acts as a dampener somewhat, and it also increases the wheel base abit. Both things REDUCE response in handling, but confer a smoother ride.
A racing bike has less fork rake in order to give a better/faster handling response and also less dampening means more pedaling energy goes into forward motion.
I've seen a few straight forks, but usually on bmx or mountain bikes, the latter having shocks. I'm thinking having the center of the hub in line with the steering column (head tube) must give a direct response when turning rather than a lag. I'm not entirely sure about this last bit.
In any case, she has some angry skilz

Unable to comment, but when I showed it to my wife she ran away:

Um...what happens to the balloon? I mean, the chick appears to have completely swallowed it. This cannot be good for the digestive system.
On the other hand, she could teach a college level course on how to suppress the gag reflex.
I wondered if she slowly deflated it, or maybe they cut out the part where she opens her mouth and it pops out like a can of nuts snake.
That's gotta be a wierd sensation when it pops.
:eek: Absolutely Amazing
Talent, but not an ounce of common sense or regard for another humans life.

You know what the best part of the video was, though? Not the jump. It was when his beautiful blonde mother comes up and kisses and hugs him, and he says to her, "I'm sorry, Mom", and then embraces her while getting a bit misty looking. That young man clearly scared the living shit out of his mom doing that stunt, and I think that he only realized at that moment what a lucky, lucky young man he was.

[SIZE="1"]Start
From the starting point
Male commentator (MC): Moving towards the 1st beer bottle
at a distance of 100 m
[opens first bottle]
Next a distance of 50 m away is the 2nd beer bottle
Positioned directly on top of the target
Will he do it smoothly?
Female commentator (FC): I can feel that he wants to open it quickly
MC: Yes, he's gone into the level of psychological warfare already
How's the 2nd bottle!
He renews his resolve (sorts out his feelings)
Aims at the bottle...
[breaks 2nd bottle]
There seems to been a little accident!
Voiceover: Let's see what happened just now
The bottleopener overshoot the top of the bottle,
breaking the glass
So, this bottle does not count (towards the points)
MC: Jim renews his resolves
And try to open the 2nd bottle
Slowly getting closer
He's in position
Will it open?
It's open!
The second bottle successful!
FC: It was so quick this time
MC: Yeah, so fast!
Audience #1: Seems to have gotten the hang of it
Audience #2: Yeah
FC: He learns so fast
MC: Yeah
He positions himself anew
Towards the 3rd bottle
Slowly getting closer the 3rd bottle
He's already opened 2 bottles
There's only a minute and a half left
How is it? the 3rd bottle
[3rd bottle opens]
Success! It's open!
Voiceover: Let's see the moment he opened the bottle
Jim bravely uses the grip of the opener to open the bottle
On this point he is not breaking the rules
MC: Miss Saito, so there's such a technique
FC: Yes there is, it's very smart, there's all kinds of techniques
MC: He's opened 3 bottles and there's still a minute left
Towards the challenge of 4th bottle
Aiming from above, Gathering concentration...
He succeeds with the 4th bottle!
FC: That's amazing
MC: Really amazing, so fast! Aoyama can only gape (laugh bitterly?)
The speed is now getting faster
Although he had a small accident, he's already opened 4 bottles
It's going pretty smoothly
Okay, the 5th bottle
There's less than 30 seconds left
The challenge of the 5th bottle...
It slide off
There's less than 15 seconds...
He's still aiming, Jim is still aiming
The fifth bottle... success!
He's opened the 5th bottle!
Can he continue??
The timer's going to... STOP! Time up!
He's succeeded in opening 5 bottles
Although there was a small accident but on the whole it was a success
Opponent: The speed at the end was really fast
He really got used to it
It should be because he was learning
Before you can turn he has opened so many
It was a real sight to see
I can only do my best then
The wind seems to be getting stronger
Voiceover: The Japanese representative Aoyama is finally facing up to the challenge
Aoyama gets his spirit up
But God doesn't seem to be helping
Suddenly, the wind blows stronger at 6m/hr
The wind direction is unsure
In this difficult situation
Can Aoyama exceed Jim's record of 5 bottles?
MC: The Japanese representative finally takes off
Miss Saito, Aoyama has lift off
FC: Yes, good luck to him, I hope he can exploit his potential
Being the last, the pressure is greater on him
Hopefully he's perform well
MC: What's special about Aoyama's model?
FC: Although his turn is smaller, it is easier to be affected by the wind
MC: But the wind has turned stronger!
FC: Yes, it has
Hopefully he won't lose to this wind
Good luck
MC: This is Miss Saito's analysis
The Japanese representative has reached the starting point
We will start soon
At the moment, Jim's record is 5 bottles
Can Aoyama break this record?
The race begins!
He speedily flies to the front of the 1st bottle
FC: Flying straight isn't that easy
MC: Oh, is that right?
FC: Looks easy but isn't. You need to get a grasp of the distance
MC: Here it comes! He flies straight to the front of the 1st bottle
How is it? Just now it struck across
FC: It's so exciting
MC: Yes, let's grasp the distance... How is it?
Slowly getting closer, Slowly getting closer...
He opens it! Success
FC: Oh, I'm so happy!
MC: So fast!
(Something unexpected to Aoyama!)
[Show returns]
[Recap]
Jim: OK Number 1
Voiceover: It's expected for a world champion, opening the 1st bottle 28 sec faster than Jim
He's flying towards the 2nd bottle
MC: Miss Saito, this first task can considered a success, right?
FC: Yes, I'm so happy, I hope he can continue with the same showing
MC: Yes, he's already opened the 1st bottle, now onto the 2nd
The Japanese representative Aoyama!
Looks like it's starting to shake (to and fro)
FC: Yes, he's affected by the wind, It's shaking quite hard
MC: He faces up to the challenge in this difficult weather condition
Success! It's open!
FC: I'm so happy!
MC: He begins the challenge of the 3rd bottle
Jim's record is 5 bottles, Aoyama has opened 2 bottles up til now
His speed is very fast
He gets nearer the 3rd bottle
He backs away a bit
And starts to get closer again
MC: Miss Saito, it looks like it's shaking up and down this time
FC: Yeah, it should be because of the wind
I feel this wind's direction is changing
MC: So that's what it is, it is'nt very stable
And just now Jim's wind speed was at 3m and it's already 6m now
FC: I feel it's a little stronger than 6m now
MC: The conditions are getting worse now
Towards the 3rd bottle!
Can't target, can't target
There's still a lot of time
Getting nearer to the 3rd bottle... how...
Getting nearer from the side
With Jim observing Aoyama's 3rd bottle
The Japanese representative... succeeds!
FC: It sure wasn't easy under these circumstances
Voiceover: Under these conditions, Aoyama bravely, with the thirst to win. Like Jim he makes use of the foot of the grip and opens the bottle from the side
MC: There's less than 1 minute left
He needs to fight with the time now
Jim's record is 5, Aoyama's opened 3 for now, there's still 2 bottles left!
The 4th bottle
He needs to move quickly and attack from the side
How is it... Oh no!
FC: That was too bad
MC: Let's try again, how is it... no, he's struck across
He needs to get a grip on it
There's not much time
How's it... the 4th bottle, success!
There's still one more, faster!
There's still 15 sec left, he'll need to open one more bottle
Can he succeed? Good luck!
Jim's starting to countdown
Less than 10 sec
Can the Japanese representative Aoyama open the last bottle?
One more try, last chance
Time's up! Oh, this is too bad.
[opens 5th bottle]
He only opens it now!
FC: Oh but it was already very difficult under these conditions
Amazing
In the end, American representative Jim wins
The Japanese representative's record is 4 bottles
World champion Aoyama missed by 3 seconds
(Thought bubble: It was too bad just now
Thanks, thanks Aoyama, that was a great contest, 3 seconds, close)[/SIZE]

Blast!
Born on athletic fields across the nation, Blast! is a novel art form evolved from the showmanship of outdoor pageantry. A unique experience, Blast! explodes the genre with the artistry of the theatre. It is musical spectacle; it is music in motion. Described by Richard Christiansen of the Chicago Tribune, ‘Blast!’ And a truer word was never spoken. A terrific good time … explosive entertainment. It is indeed a blast.”
I saw this earlier and thought of Blast. i stumbled on it looking for versions of Ravel's Bolero. Here is theirs. At first I wondered if they were "air playing". That is some serious cardiovascular shit. And a great performance of the piece.

This large video file (80MB) shows how hand engraving of printing plates is done at G. Henle Verlag, a well-known German publisher of classical music.
http://www.henle.de/video/vollversion/Notenstich_E.wmvThat's very impressive, Steve, but why, other than snob appeal, go to that trouble? :confused:
You got me. I can't believe it can't be done digitally in less time these days, even with some kind of high-end custom solution. Especially since they really only print one master off the plate and then camera it. Having said that, I've played off many of their scores, and they look DAMNED good. It's a pain to try to read off music that looks like shit; in extreme cases it can be hard to figure out which note it is without looking twice, and you just don't need that. So while I've got to think there's a better way to do it these days, I really do appreciate the end product.
Also please note that that plate he was working on was lead. A lot of people on the Finale (music processing software) mailing list that Mrs. Dallas got this off of were speculating about the health impact.
Carving the lead shouldn't be a problem unless he gets slivers in his skin. Anything that makes dust like sanding can be dangerous, as is not washing his hands before eating, drinking or smoking.:yeldead:
I thought it might be tin or an alloy like solder.
Didn't watch the vid but most egraving or etching is done on zinc or copper plates. As far as I know. Even those harder metals lose detail after a certain number of prints are made. Hence, numbering editions, lower number implies greater fidelity to the original.
After the plate deteriorates to the point that the artist (or print puller) feels sufficient detail is lost the plate is "struck" (defaced) and no more prints can be pulled.
And as for lead, let's not forget our favorite: melting sinkers in the saucepan in the kitchen.
I'm watching the vid now. I think the narrator is mistaken about the lead. The plate he's engraving, the shavings coming off, don't look like lead to me, unless, as bruce points out, it is an alloy.
Pretty cool.
Isn't money engraved on steel plates?
I guess lead would make sense for a single print. :cool:
Single print? All that work for a single print?
Someone has some serious ass cash to burn.
They photograph the print then reproduce it, so SteveDallas can afford it. :haha:
That's just wacky. Why not just photograph the drawing before it is engraved?
Oh why ask why?

Definitely AC. Worst pilot ever, and the guys on the ground know it and are taping it before the landing!
I've never seen a clip like that before. Not in real life anyway. Amazing. I was expecting the engine to pull a "Castaway" like the engine that blew up in Tom Hanks' face in that movie.
I can't figure out why they just didn't tow it into the shallows with the boat. It was already hooked up and could have been lifted out with a shore crane, easily. A lot less damage all the way around. :smack:

Positive association. Put a few hits of kitty krack in there and they'll be pushing the bar down to beat the band.
:beer::bong::rasta:
ok just saw the vid. I take it all back.
If they had a Kitty Washing Machine near me, I'd adopt a cat just to use it!
Goddamn it! I was just about to put that up here!
It would have been more fun if there'd been a big agitator in there, and a tumble dry function.
I saw it earlier but was afraid to post it here. We have some rabid cat advocates here and I didn't want to listen to it. :lol:
I have cats, and I've flea-bathed them by hand before. The machine would be more humane, believe me.

I
hate cats, but even I would not do that to a cat. The cat was clearly terrified.
They are no less terrified if you have to practically fucking strangle them to do it by hand, moreso they take it personally.

I'm torn on this. While I'd feel bad about putting a cat in an locked cage and spraying them with water, I know from experience that trying to force them by hand would really is worse.
The only solution: kitty Valium from the vet, which is also useful for trimming claws and cutting matted fur.
Then, there is this.

I'd never do this to one of my boys, but then they don't need it.... not sure how I'd feel if they did.
I'm with Clodfobble in that you'd probably never get a cat in there twice!

Definitely balls of steel. I used to work with a guy who could ride like that, he was amazing. He was hiking along the grand canyon and tripped on a rock or something and took a 'long dive'. That was fucking ironic.

Every time I go to the store, I have to "explore" the aisles to find the best sounding decorative knick-knacks, vases, lamps, etc. Target has a good aisle, usually, of "World Market" type stuff.

The guy in the cabinet had great sound. We've got a couple of good pieces of glass ware but I never thought of auditioning them before buying them.
One of my favorite instruments is pulling the strings on my hoodie taught and twanging them. I once recorded this by putting on a set of walkman headphones and plugging the jack into the input.

I'm quoting DucksNuts original post which pointed us to the amazingly skilled Andy McKee, guitarist extraordinaire. As I mentioned in my original followup to her post, Andy lives in Topeka, and is a friend of Stephen Bennett, the harp guitarist whose video I posted here earlier.
Well, in the small world category it seems that I have now been engaged to run sound for an April performance by Mr McKee at the same venue where Stephen played. Andy is an up and comer, derservedly so. He appeared on Carson Daly on the 9th, in fact, while on a stay in LA.
Can't wait to see him work live.
Cool, watch out for the soundman groupies. :D
Oh, yeah...I'll be sure to keep my eyes peeled for those. Hopefully one of them will want to help carry the PA speakers, and then later, fondle my cable.
And once the cable is used, they should know how to coil it so that it doesn't become knotted or loose in storage.

from the

his jeep had failed its MOT and it was not economically viable to repair (completely rusted underneath) also none of us wanted the hasle ... all » of breaking it . Rather than just take it straight to the breakers we decided to have some fun with it first and see what it could do if realy pushed , all the driving you see in the video was on private land , after the destruction , the jeep and crap that fell
Well if it was rusted out Any way , I bet it was fun trashing it the rest of the way , but they should have burned it in the end , Whoopin and danceing like Indians ( with a beer in hand ) !!!

Surprised?! Marked for life, I am.
As to Cowboy Bebop, rest assured that the only obstacle to my finishing it (more than once, without question) will be the $25/disc cost. I'm having to pace myself on the acquisition of the rest of the sessions. So far, I've purchased two at used prices (under $10) and I gave in and got Session Three at retail ($25) :(. I'm patient, though. The slow pace gives me time to re-watch all the earlier episodes again and again.

Bon Bon the Voodoo Clown was the creator and former host of "The Black Magic Show For Kids!" which first aired on American Television in 1962. The show was quickly dropped after outraged citizens stormed NBC headquarters in NYC the night after the first show aired on Saturday morning TV. Bon Bon was subsequently dragged to the street by the throng for a "tar and feathering" (the first such incident since the practice was outlawed in the late 19th century). Since then Bon Bon has tried to revive his show a dozen or so times, only to meet similar resistence on part of the general public. Bon Bon now spends his time writing poetry, creating art and performing music with his goth/industrial style band "Son of Zodiac".

http://www.pistolwimp.com/media/60514/White chicks and gang signs:
That reminded me of a funny day at work about 20 years ago. I was working in NYC in an office with a few other people doing customer service, one of whom was a tough talking black chick who spoke almost entirely in slang and/or what is now called ebonics.
Her boyfriend would come in to see her at work a few times a week, ostensibly to deliver her lunch. He'd hand her a brown paper bag and during her lunch hour she'd count out a few hundred bucks in fives and tens, then change them into larger bills at the register in the front.
This one day she is on the phone and all she is saying is "Uh huh.
pause Uh huh.
pause Uh huh.
pause Uh huh.
pause Uh huh. OK. Bye." She hangs up the phone and says to the office,
"My sister think she all white and shit."
"What do you mean?" I asked her
"She be talking all white and shit, acting like she ain't black." I really had no clue what she was meant so I asked her for an example of what 'Talking white' was.
She says "I call my sister up and she go 'Hello Sharon. How are you? I'm fine, the children are doing well. Jim's outside mowing the lawn'. " Only she says it without her thick NYC patois, very white midwestern sounding. Like a frigging news anchor.
It was pretty funny to hear her impression of "speaking white" and if you'd been on the phone with her...

I really feel sorry for people who work hard and learn to assimilate only to become alienated from the people they come from. I mean, you basically can't speak in an "undesirable" dialect and expect to be very successful, outside of the entertainment industry.

Homemade fretless mountain banjo. Curly maple with rosewood tailpiece, nut, 5th string nut and violin style friction tuners. Bridge is curly maple with a coconut shell top (the curve of the shell creates a 'moon' style bridge with compensation built-in). Nylgut strings and a calfskin head stretched over a cast aluminium tone ring (a cut-down plant pot!). Tung oil finish. I have another one planned with lots of improvements.

I'm thinking the shutter speed of the camera matched the speed of the blades.
Kinda like when a moving car in a commercial looks like it's wheels are turning backwards?
Good thought, but all through the maneuvers in this, and another clip, the rotor speed would have to be constant, with varying loads.
That said, you've come up with the only logical solution I've heard yet.
I think that the rotors can also change their pitch/angle to change lift, but I'm not a chopper jock so I don't know.
I'm also pretty sure that the front and rear rotors are mechanically engaged to each other, one won't turn without the other turning, they just turn at different rates.
Also, you can hear the engines running and changing speed with the maneuvers.
I *do* know that a helicopter's glide characteristics match those of a wet crow bar.
Hold it, is that Bob Hoover in the pilot's seat?

Time did a story on this.
Summary:
Lions snatch cape buffalo calf from herd and drag it to water's edge, scattering the rest of the herd.
A brief tug of war with a crocodile ensues.
Lions win tug of war, drag the calf away from the water, and get stomped on by herd who return to rumble.
I had heard cape buffalo were tough, but this was pretty cool. This is probably why you don't find cape buffalo burgers at McDonalds.

Baseball fans, this is the
Change Up From Hell.I don't think you can throw underhand in US baseball.
...any natural movement associated with his delivery of the ball to the batter commits him to the pitch without interruption or alteration...
Negative. There are no restrictions as to what path the pitcher's arm takes associated with the delivery of the ball to the batter. Pages of rules about his feet and hands, but not about his arm. Have you never seen Dennis Eckersley or Dan Quisenberry pitch? Underhand? Underground practically.

A singing Tesla coil. Insanely cool.
This is a solid-state Tesla coil. The primary runs at its resonant frequency in the 41 KHz range, and is modulated from the control unit in order to generate the tones you hear.
So just to explain a little further, yes, it is the actual high voltage sparks that are making the noise. Every cycle of the music is a burst of sparks at 41 KHz, triggered by digital circuitry at the end of a "long" piece of fiber optics.
Make sure to keep watching until just after a minute in...

I know this isn't really a thread for comment, but the last video moved me to reply. Not moved in the sense that I possibly should have been.
I just wondered who it was aimed at?
If my brother, father, lover, best friend was away - doing anything, anywhere - I would love them, miss them, support them. If they died then my reaction at their coffin would be grief and their loss would hurt.
Servicemen and women are brave, they do something I didn't choose to do, but they are trained personnel and they are doing a job. They're not the local baker who get caught in crossfire, or the local butcher pressed into a militia with no training.
I'm not anti-forces by any means, but showing pictures of services children is a low blow. Anyone in a high risk profession (down to and including drug dealer) has a choice whether to reproduce. Don't ask me to well up because you took a chance with your own life, however noble.
Sorry, end of being heartless. Just as I said - it struck a bum note with me, seeming to appeal to people who spend every single day thinking about the potential sacrifice their loved ones are making for political ends.
Lovely tribute Bruce. Thanks, very well done. I will pass it along. Very well done.
For me, it is the grieving families that tear out my heart. Each of those pained, sorrowful, sobbing faces makes me ask myself again and again if the continuing sacrifice is really making us safer here?
I was in favor of going into Iraq. I wanted to see Saddam's ass kicked and his machine dismantled. Like many, I think I knew that the subsequent power vacuum and the presence of an occupying force would lead to carnage. For some reason, it seemed to make more sense in the wake of 9-11 than it does now.
The word "progress" is beginning to be thrown around now, but its just another political football. Expect to hear it trumpeted from on high with increasing intensity as the election draws nearer. If we stay in Iraq forever, we might - *might* - eventually subdue the violence enough to begin to think about calling the effort a success, but I'm not sure how many more grieving families that is worth. I don't know how many more legless Marines I want to see making my petty little complaints seem childish.
Someone please prove to me that for every dead or maimed soldier, a hundred thousand Americans will get to live their lives free from the threat of another terrorist act like 9-11. Without that proof, I'm going to slowly slip completely over to the side of "get out now".
I love the beer crate scooter! A little IED would take out that guy. Funny shit.

This isn't youtube, but I thought it was pretty funny. Consider this a warning to anyone who sees someone pole dancing and says to herself 'I could do that'.

Bear with it - in between the footage shot outside there are clips from the British children's Saturday morning show
Tiswas, without doubt the most anarchic show ever shown to impressionable minds.
It even shows The Cage - which had a huge waiting list of adults who simply wanted to stand there and get covered in grimness, the buckets of water were the most pleasant thing that was thrown on them I think.

These comments.It would seem that the key is not to oversoak the ball, as mentioned in the video. But there's obviously some technique to it.
There's a similar trick where you dip your hand in water first, then rubbing alcohol (which burns at a low temperature,) and you can set your own arm on fire for a short time with no ill effects. I have since seen video of it through the wonders of the internet, but the idea's been around forever: back in high school, we had to do a project where we acted out a video of a Greek or Roman myth. A classmate decided to use this trick in his group's video of Prometheus. Except he screwed it up somehow, and instead ran around screaming for several seconds before managing to put it out. I know this because they kept the footage in their final project, hoping for pity points from the teacher. (It didn't work.)

OK, enjoy... but don't blame me if you feel pain, after lighting your balls on fire.
make sure you are recording it though. for scientific purposes, of course.
Update:
Punchline first: I didn't die, since there's no internet in hell. Sorry guys.
Now for the more useful observations. It *is* hot. It's a freakin ball of fire, people. I have a tiny first degree burn on my left thumb where I held it first and longest. It does burn just like in the video with a candle-like flame about six inches in length. It needs to be smothered to go out. Or dropped in the snow. They both work. It can be tossed or juggled easily. It is very distracting to watch the flame part and not be focused on the ball; that's how I dropped it (and lost it) in the snow last night. It's very easy to light but now you have two burning things in your two hands, whatcha gonna do? That's how I (barely) hurt my thumb.
If you keep moving, and don't get distracted, they're quite easy to handle. For more tender hands it could be painful, perhaps even a small second degree burn. For tougher hands, higher pain and heat tolerance, they're not much of a problem. There is the counterintuitive problem of how to get away from the heat. Your first instinct is to drop it. And that will work, but unless you're standing in a snowbank, now the fire is on the floor. The graceful and dramatic way to get away from the heat is to smother it in your fist. It definitely feels weird to clench a fireball in your fist in self defense, but once it's out, the ball is barely warm. It is not singed at all, not smoking, not hot, easy to handle.
I had the most trouble lighting it and then managing to close and put away the lighter quickly and smoothly while I was ... getting burned on my other hand. Well... that's what practice is for.
It was fun, easy, dramatic and only slightly dangerous. Recommended for fully tamed and domesticated pyros.

The London Borough of Bexley has classified that link as pornography. Huh. Given V's reaction I spose it is in a way :yelsick:
The ants are interesting and I loved the contrast at the end, but did you notice at 0:46 the narrator refers to them as "aliens"? Huh?
It's not so big, though. In Japan there is a species of ant whose colonies allow their nest to connect to the nests of other colonies of the same species. Huge interconnected supernests develop. IIRC correctly sizes of more than 100 square kilometers are found!
And having been in some apparently endless underground shopping malls here, I'm left wondering...

not a pedophile. just arrested emotionally at age 14. makes perfect sense. in your mind....you're 14, so 14 yr old girls are attractive to you. cant help you with that.

sorry Drax but what is the reason for that video? And why is she rolling her eyes around like that? Kids get payed a hell of a lot these days to just sit there and have pedoes look at them.
I think maybe that's what the others are getting at . There is no other rhyme nor reson for that girl to be doing what she's doing.
What is the reason for that video?
:thankyou: for (unlike these other judgmental assholes) taking the time to ask me about it.
Sure, I think she's cute, but my reason for posting it was simply because I thought ya'll might find it as weird and pointless as I did. I mean, come on. She posts a video of herself, and all she does is wave at the camera a couple of times? WTF. Maybe I should've posted it in
that thread. Maybe ya'll would have gotten my point.
Yeah, we got it. But that said, it was a perfect opportunity to tease you, and you bit like a trophy fish. That's what friends are for.:stickpoke

Been listening to a lot of Michael Franti & Spearhead lately so I thought I'd be a pusher with some videos I found on You Tube. It was tough to keep this list of videos short so I just stuck to "official" music videos.
Great music and message (especially if you're a hippie at heart like myself).

time-lapse movies from the American West (North & South!)
and
blogEl Caminito del Rey (The King’s pathway, often shortened to El Camino del Rey) is a walkway, now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, near Alora in Spain.
The walkway has now gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall.
Many people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years. After four people died in two accidents in 1999 and 2000, the local government closed the entrances. However, adventurous tourists still find their way into the walkway.
Reminds me of those Chinese mountain paths.

What's really cool is that I came up here to the front desk of our suite to help the girls, and I was singing the Music Box song.

His mom thought it was awesome too, and I was pleased the young guy knew it! :)

The Inner Life of a Cell from the
Harvard Multimedia Production Site . The animation is absolutely amazing. I have to confess that most of the science was way beyond anything I learned in high school biology a few decades ago, but it was so very cool (in a nerdy sort of way) to sit and watch. It looked like an alien planet, and yet it's a representation of something that is happening millions (billions?) of times this very moment in each of our bodies (except for the inflammation part).
Way better than the crappy audio-visuals I had to sit through back then.:thumb:
They would be even better if I understood what the hell they were talking about, but the visuals are cool.

OK, now I am in tears.
I was reminded of this video (an oldie but a goodie) and thought about Zeke. Zeke, as some of you know, was my brother's Golden who died last year. My mom told me this week that my 5 year old niece pointed out a cloud that looked like a dog. She then said "when I see clouds that look like dogs I think Zekey is up there sitting on a pillow looking at us." She was very affected by his death; we all were. He was one of a kind.
Anyway, this is a cute Goldie, and I think he's having a blast. Many of you have probably seen it. But here it is again, for those who haven't.

Great choreography and dance fresh (btw I was interested in yours - but really don't know enough about that style to even know if it's good or bad, so declined to comment).
I love how tight their movements are, and how well co-ordinated as a group.
What I don't like is the constant screaming. Good lord - is that common when watching dance?

Wow thanks SG. Yeah those dance troupes are really good. My dancing is decent, but not comparable at all to the videos I posted in this thread.
And about the screaming, it's the norm. Sometimes annoying, but it's part of the atmosphere. Pumps people up, gets them excited. And I guess in hip hop dancing there's just those times when it's so good and so raw that the crowd just explodes with it's approval. Part of the competition is to work the crowd.

It would be cool if someone on the Cellar lived in Brooklin and could go see you! I am just excited about the whole idea!
I found some information on the telescope which is a good sidenote? or maybe I am just being post happy today lol :o oh well.
In all its optical brilliance and brass and wood, there stood the Telectroscope: an 11.2-meter-(37 feet) long by 3.3-meter-(11 feet) tall dream of a device allowing people on one side of the Atlantic to look into its person-size lens and, in real time, see those on the other side via a recently completed tunnel running under the ocean. (Think 19th-century Webcam. Or maybe Victorian-age video phone.)
And all the credit goes to British artist Paul St. George. If he had not been rummaging through great-grandpa Alexander's personal effects a few years ago, the Telectroscope might still exist only on paper, hidden away deep inside some old box.
But fortunately, St. George could not bear that thought and thus decided he should be the one to finish what his great-grandfather had started. It was quite simply the right thing to do. Plus, it would make a pretty cool public art exhibit.
Drax! Thanks for that:) That's one of my all time favourite tv themes, great listening to how it's changed across the decades ;)

I don't like how she disses brit pop. As an American it's so often my favorite school of music.
No, I know she isn't old time. I looked her up. She's funky but that one song reminded me of old time singers. I said, "she has an old time voice".
oh it's ok. I am sure you never had to suffer through The Lawrence Welk show with your grandmother :)

oh I forgot...........shoooe
No, I know she isn't old time. I looked her up. She's funky but that one song reminded me of old time singers. I said, "she has an old time voice".
I know, I read it. For the record, I was trying to explain that it's probably the only song she has ever sung, in which you could hear that quality in her voice. As you looked it up, what I wrote was redundant. I wasn't trying to make you feel small, I was trying to give you some more information because you'd asked originally.
Just for more information - Spitting Image (satirical UK puppet show of the 80s-90s) compared her voice to a fax machine because if the changes in pitch she usually employs.
UT - that's a really old interview. I can see how someone coming in from the outside during that period would feel it was an exclusive club and resent it. Although I don't agree with what she said it's an interesting perspective because I certainly didn't hear it at the time.
Anyway, back to videos :)

I was called on as one of his "mindreading" volunteers.
I knew there was a trick to how he "guessed" the info about me and that it was a standard magic trick and not any kind of psychology - but it was still damned impressive.

The PCR Song
There was a time when to amplify DNA,
You had to grow tons and tons of tiny cells.
Then along came a guy named Dr. Kary Mullis,
Said you can amplify in vitro just as well.
Just mix your template with a buffer and some primers,
Nucleotides and polymerases, too.
Denaturing, annealing, and extending.
Well it’s amazing what heating and cooling and heating will do.
PCR, when you need to detect mutations.
PCR, when you need to recombine.
PCR, when you need to find out who the daddy is.
PCR, when you need to solve a crime.

He's successful, rich and driven.
Although, yes, he is gay.

I know! Saw it first thing this morning (and I came into work stressed) and that just knocked me off my foundation. I love animals and that video really got to me.
"I think I could turn and live with the animals
They are so placid and self-contained."

Man, *that* is the kind of thing that just makes you feel good to be alive in such an astounding world. Beautiful, simply beautiful.
I was mauling about on Google Video and came across some clips from Olivier's Hamlet. I remember, so clearly, watching it for the first time. I was about 11 or 12 years old and it came on late one night. I watched it on the little Black and white portable TV in my bedroom. My older brother had been reading some Shakespeare (MacBeth I think) so I was already curious.
I fell absolutely in love with the play and it remains my favorite of Shakespeare's works. I spent my Birthday book-tokens on a copy of the Complete Works of Shakespeare and was well and truly hooked.
Olivier's Hamlet still gives me a slight shiver. It whips me back to that night in an instant and I can recall the moody glamour of the character, as I watched. What I love about Hamlet, is that in many ways, he is more the anti-hero than the hero.
Anyway, enough rambling, here's the 'Get thee to a Nunnery' scene: apologies for the branding across the screen, it was the only version I could find.

Pretty amazing presentation. This is an update to something that I think was linked to from the Cellar before. I was always amazed by the inability of people, especially Wall Street, to recognize trends, even when they had a direct effect on their futures. Look at the housing crisis, and, with 20/20 hindsight, ask yourselves how this could have been ignored by the experts.
The world is changing - fast. Even if the issue of competition for resources is resolved, markets are evolving and other nations are doing a better job of education than the US.
This short presentation just puts up the basic facts. But together, they are enough to give the viewer a glimpse at the bigger picture.

And I have to include this trailer.
It's not great picture quality, but I hope you can see why, from the first time I saw it, I was desperate to watch the series. In fact the next day I called up my friend and said, "Have you seen the Casanova trailer, OMG!" in a really girly way. She had seen it and was also blown away - when the series was on it was a definite water cooler date the next day, to talk about how great it was and who on earth was the lead, he was amazing. And we didn't mean Peter O'Toole.
[youtube]blD0KqxNaTI[/youtube]
I think most the series is on youtube, but it's in clips, so it doesn't come across as well. And at 3 hours, that's a lot of 10 minute clips. Still, my friend and I believed we'd got the whole of our annual license fee's worth in those three hours. Lovely.

One of the best skits from Carol Burnett: Tim at his funniest, the rest of the cast unable to keep from laughing...then Vicki Lawrence pipes in.
Best part starts around 2 minutes in, until the end where Vicki steals the show (stealing the show from Conway on that show was a feat in itself!)
I guess you have to know the actors.
To me, none of them said anything funny, certainly not funny enough to justify their own corpsing or the audience reaction. I know the same could be said if I posted a random clip of The League of Gentlemen live though.
And what does Vicki Lawrence say at the end? "Do you hear that little asshole's do?" I watched twice and couldn't work it out, let alone understand why the two guts fell off their chairs.
(just to reiterate, not an attack on the humour - I just don't get it)
Tim Conway was famous on The Carol Burnett Show for ad-libbing and cracking everyone up. In this skit, one that had many manifestations, the family of Mama (Vicki L) was playing a game. Conway was making all of that up as he went along. They were all trying not to laugh, so when they were trying to get back on track Ms Lawrence said "Are you sure that little assholes done?"
I guess you do have to know the show, and the history behind it all. Youtube is rife (rife, I tell you) with takes from the show where Conway went off on a tangent.
It was some years ago too. Many of us grew up with The Carol Burnett show, so it might be funny to someone other than me. :)
Out of context, I guess it wouldn't be funny.
It was hysterical at the time, but that was a long time ago. Humor evolves over time. Cheech and Chong used to be funny too.
I laughed, even though I couldn't understand a lot of what he said. I find there's something inherently infectious in actors cracking up when they're trying to keep a straight face.
Like
this one. Kills me, every time.
Oh dear.
I'm beginning to doubt my sense of humour...
OMG. Those fail videos have my face hurting from laughing. I love the weightlifter kid who immediately calls "MOM!! MOMMA!!!"
Heeee-larious.
She said " ya sure that little assholes through"
I thought it was funny:D I always liked The Carol Burnett Show.

"Asshole" caught them off guard AND it was in total character.
All the incarnations of The Carol Burnett Show were awesome. I'm wondering, though, if this was from her show, or was it actually Mama's Family, the show that was spun off from that recurring sketch?
[youtube]BerJdS2VJhA[/youtube]
Oh dear.
I'm beginning to doubt my sense of humour...
Don't. Carol Burnett is not funny. She's just retarded.
Okay
In return. Out-takes from Max and Paddy Road to Nowhere.
I expect about two people to find this funny, and one of them is me. Quit when you've had enough. It's not funny because they fall over or things fall on them. It's just funny because they laugh all the time.
Background - Peter Kay and Paddy McGuinness are stand up comedians. Peter Kay is also an award winning writer/ director/ singer/ all round good egg. He has the most ridiculous laugh in the world - not heard when he's acting but often - OFTEN - in out-takes. This is from Max & Paddy, a Channel 4 sitcom that was a spin off from Phoenix Nights. Both are very dead-pan as finished products (proper British humour). The making is anything but. Don't let comedians anywhere near your shooting schedule is all I can say.

It would seem they're paying homage to a Monty Python skit of the same title.
[youtube]Xe1a1wHxTyo[/youtube]
Yes, it's the same sketch, but with just a little ad-libbing.
Not technically Monty Python btw - at least not the original. It's from the Not the 1948 Show and was performed by Tim Brooke-Taylor, John Cleese, Graham Chapman and Marty Feldman.
The only person who doesn't know it by heart is Alan Rickman (hence the paper). The other comedians already knew it by heart.
Cool! Eddie Izzard and Alan Rickman on the same stage is groovy. Not familiar with the other two, though.

The Bruce Lee videos (of which there are several varieties, apparently) are fakes, but it's not
completely impossible:
[youtube]lb1wEIKpygY[/youtube]
These smoking gun videos represent 16 years of observations of stars orbiting the black hole at the center of the Milky Way. One complete orbit of a star brings it to within 1
light-day of the black hole! Several versions are available
here. This was also linked from the Astronomy Picture of the Day site
here.
Explanation: At the center of our Milky Way Galaxy lies a supermassive black hole. Once a controversial claim, this conclusion is now solidly based on 16 years of observations that map the orbits of 28 stars very near the galactic center. Using European Southern Observatory telescopes and sophisticated near infrared cameras, astronomers patiently measured the positions of the stars over time, following one star, designated S2, through a complete orbit as it came within about 1 light-day of the center of the Milky Way. Their results convincingly show that S2 is moving under the influence of the enormous gravity of a compact, unseen object -- a black hole with 4 million times the mass of the Sun. Their ability to track stars so close to the galactic center accurately measures the black hole's mass and also determines the distance to the center to be 27,000 light-years. This deep, near-infrared image shows the crowded inner 3 light-years of the central Milky Way. Spectacular time-lapse animations of the stars orbiting within light-days of the galactic center can be found here.
Dude...dude...I thought there was gonna be time lapse photography of stars ripassing around the black hole for 16 years.
I am *so* disappointed.
On the other hand, the fact that everything in the Universe is effectively going down a cosmic drain somewhere is kinda cool.

You must admit it's unusually large and ornate for a doll house.
Even though you try to pass yourself off as an oppressed minority, I can see from that basement you're really a rich kid. :haha:
I'm not up to date with doll house standards.
You think my basement is rich? I thought it looked pretty disorganized to me.
Yeah, it's a pretty upscale dollhouse. And that basement is clearly finished living area, not just a place to store cardboard boxes of stuff for the spiders to build webs on and mice hide behind. I think it's an indication that your folks have a very nice house.
Oh, and rich is relative. Compared to the ghetto it's rich. Probably solid middle class and up would be more accurate.

Also, when I saw the title of the video, I had the brief thought of, "Hey waitaminute! I thought he said this was him!" Sometimes I forget that people don't actually name their babies Glatt.

There are a bunch more, and I think you can get to them at the end of that one video by clicking on it and going to youtube and checking out other videos by that user (my brother.) But mostly they are of my siblings and I, and there is no real way for you to tell us apart. Anything with "Daniel" in the title should at least tell you that I'm one of the people in the home movie. I make appearances in most of them though.
The video itself wasn't that great, but the idea of posting a 40 year old Youtube video of myself was one I got a kick out of. Just because it's so old.
I had transferred those old home movie to VHS years ago by just videoing them off the projection the screen, and I'm really glad I did. Once on VHS, it's fairly easy to move them to DVD and other video formats.

Hi Cellar!
So I'm involved with a cultural club at UIUC, called PSA, Philippine Student Association (I may have mentioned this?). For the 6th consecutive year there has been a midwest event called the Battle of the Bamboo where Filipino college organizations come to Chicago to compete for the title of best cultural dance. My school, UIUC has won it 3 times, this year, 2009 was our 3rd time winning!
I was a musician for it, and it was THE best experience in college, by far. I played a tribal drum, we made up our own music and choreographed the tribal dance to the music (which is actually VERY hard!).
Please, enjoy UIUC PSA's Championship Battle of the Bamboo performance---called Salip.

Good thing the fish didn't look up at him as he was diving in. If he had, we'd have IMPALED EXTREME FISHING.

Sure, those girls are probably only 13. Just picture them in silver spandex working for Cirque du Soleil instead.
it's The Ross Sisters - Aggie, Maggie and Elmira (who for some reason did not use their real-life names of Vicki, Dixie and Betsy Ross - though I can understand Betsy not wanting to be confused with the comparatively non-athletic Betsy Ross who sewed the first American flag!) - performing "Solid Potato Salad" from the 1944 MGM musical Broadway Rythym. This clip also appears in That's Entertainment! III (1994). Why these singing-dancing-contorting sisters weren't as big as the contortionally challenged Andrew Sisters, is beyond me.
Dixie, older than the twins, was married to Dickie Henderson OBE who was born in 1922, so she probably wasn't 13 in 1944.

This guy is a nut. I read the funniest story about him in Modern Drummer magazine (can't locate the issue so I will paraphrase):
Basically, he was playing this outdoor festival which was taking place in a wooded area, right by a cliff that fell off into the ocean. At one point he was playing a drum solo, and he got up from his kit and was drumming on random objects on the stage, microphone stands, etc. He slowly worked his way off the stage and, maintaining his "drum" solo the whole time, he wandered off and disappeared into the woods.
He continued, drumming on trees and rocks, etc. The audience was completely silent, on the edge of their seats. Slowly, he faded out of earshot. You couldn't hear him drumming anymore, and the audience was just sitting there, thinking "Did he fall off the cliff?!"
After a long pause, of total silence, the audience completely captivated by what was happening, he called out, from far, far away...
"I'm done!"
Wow...just...wow.

Many bands cover other songs and in the process make it into something new - It's a great way to hear new things in an old song.
Everyone loved Cash's interpretation of "Hurt" - right?
I thought they brought something new to the song. I really thought it was soft and beautiful. When Tony and I listened together - he agreed. He said there were changes and nuances that were in the original song but brought more to light in the cover.
It's just a matter of what makes you happy. I like the creativity.
I love covers when they are a most excellent cover.

I'm not angry. Playing covers is an old and honorable tradition, but what they're doing isn't playing a cover, adding their own nuances, with respect to the original. They are taking someone else's song, and completely re-purposing it, which is more akin to plagiarism, than covering. It's legal and shit, but it ain't right. :headshake

She stayed in town manning some sort of gun. the other Great Aunts worked as Land Girls, I've no idea where they were shipped to. Not sure about Grandad, will have to ask. But it's wonderful to see what they saw - Alice was a close family member despite being two generations removed.

Every time you watch it, you'll notice more...
Is watching it more than once a good idea?
I watched it a second time and I did not see anything more. I'd like my money back, please.
Did you notice... that the first time the girl draws the shape, it isn't something she's imagined drawing? The second time, she imagines a kite, draws a diamond, and gets a kite. The third time, she imagines a lollypop, draws a curly thingie, and gets the vortex.
Does this suggest that the pencil helped her imagine something she wanted, and then helped her imagine something *it* wanted? Is this a morality tale?
Did you notice how differently you feel about the pencil's smile? When the girl draws the kite, and flies it, the pencil is pictured looking up in the sky, and momentarily you wonder if it's happy for her and having fun with her. Is it smiling for its own joy at the end?
Did you notice that the vortex is in the shape and color of a pencil tip?
Did you notice that the sound the vortex seems to make is the same sound generated when the pencil creates an item?
Did you notice that the pencil looks into the vortex at the end? Did you notice the vortex quiver?
Did you notice that the film ended by cutting to black just as you were looking into the vortex from the same perspective as the girl? Did you notice that the sound didn't end at the same cut to black, suggesting to the mind that maybe it's not "over" when it goes black? Does this suggest that you were sucked into the vortex? Does this suggest that the morality tale applies to you?
If so, damn, son, you're good... you figured out what it took me like 10 viewings to see.
Did you notice... that the first time the girl draws the shape, it isn't something she's imagined drawing? The second time, she imagines a kite, draws a diamond, and gets a kite. The third time, she imagines a lollypop, draws a curly thingie, and gets the vortex.
The first time I watched it I saw it that way, the second and third time, I read it as all of the things were being suggested to her by the pencil. Her expression didn't seem to me that she was imagining. I don't know why.
Does this suggest that the pencil helped her imagine something she wanted, and then helped her imagine something *it* wanted? Is this a morality tale? Possibly. I think the pencil was feeding her (no pun intended) the ideas and coming up with things that she would / might think of herself.
Did you notice how differently you feel about the pencil's smile? When the girl draws the kite, and flies it, the pencil is pictured looking up in the sky, and momentarily you wonder if it's happy for her and having fun with her. Is it smiling for its own joy at the end?
Yes and no. The pencil's smile was disturbed and disturbing. I did notice that the only change or movement in it was when the pencil looked downwards with one eye, perhaps indicating that the girl should pick it up.
Also what I found difficult to assign meaning to the pencils expression was that there were what might be considered lapses in continuity. (I say lapses rather than errors, because I don't know what was intended.)
E.g. The direction of the face changes within a scene between camera angles when no real time has passed. The pencil is on her right and then the camera angle changes and the pencil is on her left. Maybe she crossed it over, but there seems to be a moment missing.
At other times the pencil is face down or up or sideways, always with the same expression. Does this indicate that the pencil is unconcerned about what is going on because it is ultimately in control of everything and doesn't need to monitor what is happening?
I don't see any change in the pencil's expression so I wouldn't attribute joy to it. I have almost a more nihilistic interpretation to it. Not in the sense that "life sucks and then you die" but more in the sense that the outcome is inevitable, therefore joy or any emotion about it is irrelevant.
Did you notice that the vortex is in the shape and color of a pencil tip?
Again, yes and no. I thought it had a bit of a curve to it, more like an old phonograph horn but, yes, certainly graphite colored.
Did you notice that the sound the vortex seems to make is the same sound generated when the pencil creates an item?
Similar. When it eats her it is louder and slightly longer duration, but I have crappy speakers, so I may be missing a lot on the audio end.
Did you notice that the pencil looks into the vortex at the end? Did you notice the vortex quiver?
Yeah, I thought it was like a drum skin, hence the sound. This also reinforced my seeing it as a horn or some sort of ear canal or something.
Did you notice that the film ended by cutting to black just as you were looking into the vortex from the same perspective as the girl? Did you notice that the sound didn't end at the same cut to black, suggesting to the mind that maybe it's not "over" when it goes black? Does this suggest that you were sucked into the vortex? Does this suggest that the morality tale applies to you?
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes and drew him down to me so he could feel my breasts all perfume yes and his heart was going like mad and yes I said yes I will Yes.
Sorry, I got distracted. You were saying something about morality?
If so, damn, son, you're good... you figured out what it took me like 10 viewings to see.

I got a
PlantCam for my birthday. I got to try it out today for the first time. It's pretty cool. It's a time lapse digital camera. You can control how often it takes a shot. It's housed in a weather proof case, and can be mounted pretty much anywhere. It takes 4MP images that can be stitched together later, or it will take 640x480 videos with frames taken at an interval you set.
It's pretty cool.
So here's the video I made today, while I was at work, of the birds polishing off the seed in the bird feeder in our front yard. Also you get to see my wife running errands in the car. One frame every five minutes over the course of 11 hours.

Very cool, Glatt. The birds really did suck up that seed.

Re the bus fight.
Hardly a "youth" given he's 50!

But he seems like a pretty decent guy in the interview.
In the getting-drunk-and-rowing stakes.
But the really grim thing for me is the woman filming it.
She calls the other protagonist "pinky" and says, "whup his white ass". I'd be sickened if she was saying, "Go beat that blackie!" and am sickened by her comments in the same way. Racist bitch.
ETA - re the "Fuck you" song - shame on him.
If he's shallow enough to love a woman who is only after money then he deserves what he gets.
My guess? She was beautiful, stacked (if that's what he likes, small and perky if not) with gorgeous hair and designer clothes.
Oh, poor guy. He went after that kinda woman and she traded up. Boo-hoo.
Yeah, but he invested all his time and money in her, and then she went and got a restraining order because he was in a cult.

Albinism
Albinism is the name given to a group of inherited conditions in which there is a lack of pigmentation (colour) in the eyes (ocular albinism) and often in the skin and hair as well. This causes most people with albinism to have a very fair, almost white, appearance, although in some people albinism affects the eyes only. People with albinism find their greatest problems arise on sunny days and in brightly lit environments. Virtually everyone with albinism has nystagmus.
Nystagmus is an uncontrolled movement of the eyes, usually from side to side, but sometimes the eyes swing up and down or even in a circular movement. Most people with nystagmus have reduced vision.

Sure, it's more dangerous than my job, but cops don't even break into the top ten most dangerous jobs. Fishermen are ten times more likely to die on the job than cops. There are a bunch of different lists out there, but most of them point to fishermen, logger, farmers, construction workers, garbage collectors, taxi drivers, pilots, roofers, and miners all having more dangerous jobs than cops and firefighters.
Thanks glatt - thats interesting to know.
Glatt - I agree with you. While police work can be dangerous, it's not near as tough as most people think. The majority is boredom & paperwork. That video was sent to me & I thought I would share it.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheWarriorProject#p/u/1/lTs6a0ORdQUSo is that hand-dancing video sped up, or is it just YouTube making it look like frames are skipped? It was pretty entertaining, either way.
I don't think it was sped up, it looks like they move in a staccato fashion. They have a couple of others that look the same but with other cues to normal speed. It's possible that they filmed it with strobes, but I doubt it. Strobes are what they use for filming water splashes or lemon squirting in Red Lobster commercials.

Yeah i thought about listing them out, but it was late and I was lazy. How you determine "most dangerous" can vary too. That list goes by overall deaths in a year and deaths per 100k. Other ways to measure that would be interesting are by average # of significant injuries per worker over their career span, insurance/workers comp claims, or permanent injuries.

It's a touchdown run designed especially for him. Ditzenberger booked it for 51 yards, scoring a sweet six points in the final seconds of the game (final score 35-6, the opposing team). His teammates swarmed around and joined him in a touchdown dance as the crowd went wild.
So is that hand-dancing video sped up, or is it just YouTube making it look like frames are skipped? It was pretty entertaining, either way.

I've alway been skeptical of most of the basketball shots I see on the web.
Oh, and the skateboard dudes are just crazy. :haha:
The basketball shots remind me of a much larger scale of my brothers and their friends (and me, of course) taking shots from the back step of the house, over the back of the backboard on our court.
I'm going to send the vid to my mom and brothers.
My favorite part was the guy jumping from the cliff or mountain or whatever into that lake. That, I think I could do. Or would have been brave enough to do when I was younger.

Here are about 10 minutes of composite video taken at sea during heavy weather.
Rough seas video...
the tables sliding around in the ballroom of the cruise ship at the end of the video are downright dangerous. That would be the cruise from hell.
There was some footage online recently that showed something similar, then below decks it really got crazy with lockers, crates, and forklift trucks tossed around.
That cruise ship video, you know, you would probably break your hand if you were on that cruise...
... from banging it on the counter, when you find out that A) there are no hurricane refunds on cruises even if you get hit by a piano, B) you've signed away liability, and C) cruise ship doctors suck.

The kids personalities actually need to be pumped up a little harder for TV, the big one needs to be meaner. And can one of them be Indian or otherwise Asian?
Yeah, it took me several go-rounds to make out that last line. They're his kids, so I guess that's not too bad for amateurs. Agreed also about the need for the characters to be more pumped up. If not Indian/mystic, at least a cape and goatee or Carnac hat.

The Barber's speech
Closing speech of the Jewish barber, after being mistaken for Hynkel. - Full text, video and audio online at American Rhetoric
I'm sorry, but I don't want to be an emperor. That's not my business. I don't want to rule or conquer anyone. I should like to help everyone, if possible, Jew, gentile, black man, white. We all want to help one another. Human beings are like that. We want to live by each other's happiness — not by each other's misery. We don't want to hate and despise one another.
In this world there is room for everyone. And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone. The way of life can be free and beautiful, but we have lost the way. Greed has poisoned men's souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in. Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind. We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery we need humanity. More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost.
The aeroplane and the radio have brought us closer together. The very nature of these inventions cries out for the goodness in men, cries out for universal brotherhood, for the unity of us all. Even now my voice is reaching millions throughout the world — millions of despairing men, women and little children — victims of a system that makes men torture and imprison innocent people. To those who can hear me, I say — do not despair. The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed — the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people and so long as men die, liberty will never perish.
Soldiers! Don't give yourselves to brutes — men who despise you — enslave you — who regiment your lives — tell you what to do — what to think or what to feel! Who drill you, diet you, treat you like cattle, use you as cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these unnatural men — machine men with machine minds and machine hearts! You are not machines! You are not cattle! You are men! You have the love of humanity in your hearts. You don't hate! Only the unloved hate — the unloved and the unnatural!
Soldiers! Don't fight for slavery! Fight for liberty! In the 17th Chapter of St. Luke it is written: "the Kingdom of God is within man" — not one man nor a group of men, but in all men! In you! You, the people have the power — the power to create machines. The power to create happiness! You, the people, have the power to make this life free and beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
Then, in the name of democracy, let us use that power! Let us all unite! Let us fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a chance to work, that will give youth the future and old age a security. By the promise of these things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie! They do not fulfill their promise; they never will. Dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people! Now, let us fight to fulfill that promise! Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance. Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
Soldiers! In the name of democracy, let us all unite!
[Cheers]
Hannah, can you hear me? Wherever you are, look up, Hannah. The clouds are lifting. The sun is breaking through. We are coming out of the darkness into the light. We are coming into a new world, a kindlier world, where men will rise above their hate, their greed and brutality. Look up, Hannah. The soul of man has been given wings, and at last he is beginning to fly. He is flying into the rainbow — into the light of hope, into the future, the glorious future that belongs to you, to me and to all of us. Look up, Hannah. Look up.
Why we take up the gun....

Like his uniform and demeanor, it was a very polished and moving presentation.
Maybe I am misinterpreting Merc's lead comment.
I would have chosen something like "Why we have military forces"
If someone were to read "Why we take up the gun" as a justification
for controlling civilian crime, as did the Commander's brief excursion
into "reduced crime rates", and/or as justification for US citizens
arming themselves, I would disagree.
In any case, I thought the presentation was worthwhile.
Merc, thanks for posting.

Herky jerky video and rather bright audio from the same handheld camera, but...here's my band Celtic Moon doing what we call our "Fangbanger Medley" at Kansas City's Pagan Pride Day this past Summer. (Jace Everett's "Bad Things" from "True Blood" followed by "Bloodletting [The Vampire Song] by Concrete Blonde.
[youtube]3PVmhp4OJpU[/youtube]
I'm sure I've mentioned this before at some point, but...the only band member here that hasn't been a close friend of mine since high school is the drummer...and he's a close friend these past five years. I know it isn't the greatest music you've ever heard, but it is the greatest thing I've experienced in my life. The thing that has kept us all together for over 35 years now is *music*. If there's anything nobler, I'm not sure what it is.
... it is the greatest thing I've experienced in my life. ...
I've never had any other experience in my life that comes as close to "ESP" or a "direct mind link" as being on stage, feeling a good groove, and you look in the eyes of your band mate, and he looks in yours, and you both know that you're feeling the same thing, and it's pure magic.
It sounds sexual, and it is similar to that moment when you and your lover can't tell where one person's body ends and the other beings.
But with music, it is somehow different. Maybe more intellectual, maybe... less animal. A mind link of the "thinking" part of your brain.
I'm not a very "social" person, but I count quality over quantity in personal interactions. In this regard, nothing is of a higher caliber than playing music with a group of people. And the audience is a part of this equation as well. They don't have to have an instrument in their hands to be a part of this. I'm sure this--the interaction with the audience--is why people get "addicted" to being a performer.

Whatever country this was filmed in, I assume there is no protection for bats. Which is sad, because as V says, they are an extremely important part of the ecosystem, especially when it comes to managing flying insect populations.
The roofers probably killed them anyway - they were forced out of their home during conditions where it would be difficult for them to orientate themselves. That many bats trying to find a safe haven in daylight? It's not good news.
Oh and rabid bats? Less than 1% of the bats in the US are infected.
They are maligned and misunderstood and useful creatures.
And they wouldn't be invading human spaces if we'd left their environment intact.
Just saying.
If I were one of those roofers, I would have stopped to put on a dust mask. There's a tremendous amount of dried bat shit towards the lower levels of the roof, and that stuff was getting blown into the air by the breeze..
Even if the bats don't have rabies or hantavirus, you don't want to get bat shit in your lungs.
Oh shoot, try this.

That's a

From
http://www.dem.ri.gov/programs/bnatres/fishwild/pdf/bats.pdf
Bat rabies has always occurred at low levels within bat populations and researchers estimate that less than 1 % of all bats are rabid. Most bats are healthy and are beneficial in controlling insect pests. However, more of the bats submitted to the Health Department Laboratory for rabies testing were positive with the rates between 5-15 percent. It is unclear what the reason for this is. In addition, a high rate of rabies in bats, submitted from rehabilitators, shows that the rehabilitation of sick bats is unsafe.
It is also known that cold temperature and hibernation slows down the virus so the bats may be incubating the virus over a year.
:eek:
However, more of the bats submitted to the Health Department Laboratory for rabies testing were positive with the rates between 5-15 percent. It is unclear what the reason for this is.
Seems logical to me. Bats awake during the day are sick. Maybe rabies, maybe something else. But if the bat is around for people to find, catch, and submit to the Health Department, the chances of it having any disease are going to be much higher than the normal rates of that disease.
It was in Miami - somewhere in lower Florida, currently residing in the US.
Sorry, I assumed it was somewhere in South America.
To be fair I only watched the clip and there weren't many clues.
Clod says what I would (and as always, more concisely).
Animals taken to the vet will have a higher percentage of any given illness than in the general population.
Ditto bats submitted to the Health Department.
If 99% of bats are healthy, that's a LOT of insects being scoffed.
But think of the poor insects!

Saw "Stomp"...ticket hanging above my desk, because it was the Sunday before I started working here: Oct 19 2008!
what is 'nb'?
nb is an abbreviation for
Nota Bene. I was lazy and omitted the periods, my apologies.
Often abbreviated as "N. B.", nota bene comes from the Latin roots notāre ("to note") and bene ("well").[1] It is in the singular imperative mood, instructing one individual to note well the matter at hand. In present-day English, it is used, particularly in legal papers,[3] to draw the attention of the reader to a certain (side) aspect or detail of the subject on hand, translating it as "pay attention" or "take notice". While "N. B." is often used in academic writing, "note" is a common substitute.
I wouldn't have known what it was even with the periods. ;)
So, it's like...a footnote thing? Is the Cellar a report, or on report?

Just up the road... I'm jealous. Maker's Mark is my special treat whiskey. I learned yesterday that Maker's Mark and Laphroaig have a "special arrangement" regarding barrels. The Laphroaig distillery gets/takes the barrels from Maker's Mark for their scotch. I learned that Maker's Mark includes an unusual step of letting the barrels air dry for three months which lets the wood shrink some, which in turn leaves more room for the scotch to seep into the wood more deeply as the scotch matures in its "big sleep".

Followup info on this "bus hits a guy" video; this happened just a couple of weeks ago on the UT campus. Kid was fine, walked away with no major injuries at all. Capitol Metro is the most awful public transportation system in any city, ever. An ex-boyfriend did a temp job in their offices once. They have an entire department dedicated to arriving at and dealing with the many accidents the buses have daily around the city. This is
not the first time they've run a red light and hit a person, not by a long shot. When I rode the bus, I would very often see bus drivers reading the newspaper while driving. But no one's ever died, because the monstrosities don't usually go more than about 20 miles per hour.

There are other birds that do that too, but it doesn't seem to be endemic because not all birds of those types do it.

I remember seeing the ravens in, I think it was England, dropping some sort of really hard nut on the street in the crosswalks, so the cars ran over and cracked the nuts for the birds. The birds then scooped up the busted nut.
That was several years ago on 'Nature' with George Page, I think.

I saw that yesterday. I think the girl standing between the chairs is going to suffer back problems for the rest of her life.
I was wondering why this was even filmed in the first place.
I saw the clip on LakeTV. It was a LakeTV crew filming. I think they were shooting stock footage/b-reel. Or background for a story.
Something to that effect.

There are loads of ravens...or crows...not sure which, possibly both...around here. They're startlingly large close up. Carrot's fascinated by them. So was Pilau. Though Pilau used tochase them, whilst Carrot is learning to just sit and watch them.
According to wiki:
Recent research has found some crow species capable not only of tool use but of tool construction as well.[2] Crows are now considered to be among the world's most intelligent animals.[3] The Jackdaw and the European Magpie have been found to have a nidopallium approximately the same relative size as the functionally equivalent neocortex in chimpanzees and humans, and significantly larger than is found in the gibbon.[4]

Aren't crows and ravens very close to the same bird?
__________________________
Anywho...
--snip
Crows and ravens are very closely related and they look very much alike to the untrained observer. Some say they're the same bird, just different in size along a continuum with ravens being larger and crows being smaller. Both are completely black, feathers, beak, feet, eyes, everything. There are some subtle physical distinctions though. Ravens have a kind of messy ruff of feathers around their throat. The ravens being larger also have larger wings with fifteen pinion feathers while the crows' smaller wings only have fourteen. These are practically invisible on the all black birds.
As far as I'm concerned, the difference is a matter of a pinion.
I see what you did there.
*stares hard at Big V*
Well played, sir, well played.
I think the ones I see mostly around here must be ravens then because they're bloody massive. And I'm pretty sure I've seen that messy ruff at their throats too.

one of the guys in my office has one of these cars....freakin' bad ass ride!
anyway, they just opened up a new toll road between Austin and Seguin with the highest speed limit in the nation. they ran a test. this is way cool!
the article is
here
[YOUTUBEWIDE]y_0von_5SRk#![/YOUTUBEWIDE]
A test? For 85mph? Shit, that's barely cruising.:rolleyes:
It looks like he said bye bye to 85 at about five seconds.
The first night that highway was open they had four crashes... with feral hogs. :eek:
Oh, and a Hennessey GT hit 263.3 in the Texas Mile.
[YOUTUBEWIDE]vuMW08IbRss[/YOUTUBEWIDE]
I drive on the Hwy 130 toll road at least once or twice a week. The new section is at the south end, but the north end it's been extending from has been open for years, and the speed increase applies to the whole thing. The reason they made the speed limit so high (besides the fact that it's Texas and we gotta whip out our dicks whenever we can) is because no one is driving on it. It was built so 18-wheeler traffic could skirt around Austin and not contribute to the very bad congestion problems on I-35, but the truckers said, "A toll? Fuck you very much," and they don't use it at all. So the DoT is dangling the carrot that you could save even more time now, if you take the tollway.
Except the joke is on them, because everyone is already going that fast on the road anyway. Most of it is elevated, and you can see for miles into the distance, so speed traps are impossible.
.....(besides the fact that it's Texas and we gotta whip out our dicks whenever we can) ......

Here is link to the story.
who was at fault? both actually. the driver of the SUV for not stopping and looking both ways and the pilot for coming in too low. it's arguable about his low approach. i fly a low approach quite often. but never when there is a road on the approach end of the runway. i'll make sure i have at least a 50' clearance if so and land a tad long.
I'm not a lawyer. But that looks like 100% pilot error from here. Maaaaybe there's a traffic signal on the road saying, planes have the right of way, but I've never seen one. The car's on the road, where cars belong. The plane's in the air, but where cars go. If the car had been on the runway, different story. Doesn't look like that from here though. I like the dialog "you pulled out in front of a plane!" wtf? A plane? I remember being trained to look for the kid chasing the ball from between parked cars but not being attacked from the sky.
It looks like everybody's probably ok, I sure hope so.
Yeah everyone was ok for the most part. Driver of the SUV got a couple staples in his head.
I can see your point of view on this but anytime a road passes in front of a runway threshhold the plane has the right of way. Driver, in this case, is an avid visitor of the airport there and should have known to look both ways before crossing the approach path. Meh, i still say they were both at fault.
I will pull out the FAR's and have a look...(faa regs)
[YOUTUBEWIDE]eqUG3guq4Jk&sns=em[/YOUTUBEWIDE]
Oh. My. God. :cry: (happy tears, of course)
Yeah V i totally agree with ya there...pretty cool breakthrough! Reminds me of the movie Awakenings with DeNiro and Williams using L-dopa to wake up the patients. (Illness escapes me now, on phone and too tired to look it up)
Oh, i did find an advisory circular from the FAA but it had to do with vehicles operating on the airport for the airport. Any rate...it did say all planes have the right of way unless otherwise specified by air traffic control (with operations at a towered airport)
I'm not a lawyer. But that looks like 100% pilot error from here. Maaaaybe there's a traffic signal on the road saying, planes have the right of way, but I've never seen one. .
It's a private road but there's a stop sign(painted on pavement) on both sides of the runway.
I agree that the vehicle is much better equipped to stop than the airplane is. And regardless of the "right of way", no one wants a collision, this wasn't some air to ground game of chicken. If the kid jumped out from between cars, I'd fucking dynamite the brakes--despite the fact that I have the right of way (assuming I did have the right of way). Not only am I not a lawyer, I am no pilot either (though I do have a new honorific, TBA) but that just looked like he came in too low. I just don't know that I'd be thinking, "Ooooh, better watch out for airplanes."
I think the car was most at fault but I don't know what the legalities are about stop signs on private roads, especially when it's painted on the road instead of the normal octagon. I found out in PA the cops can ticket you for blowing a stop sign in a mall parking lot.:eek:
It's a private road but there's a stop sign(painted on pavement) on both sides of the runway.
Huh. You mean like at approximately the spot on the road where the suv appears to be in the still of the vid? Like, kind of in line with the windsock? That might change my mind some. I'll change my position to shared fault. OF COURSE the driver didn't think, ooooo, I'll just beat the plane. He just didn't see the plane, probably because he didn't look for the plane.
I was thinking for myself that I wouldn't see the plane because I wouldn't look for the plane because I've been driving a LONG time and I just never look out for planes. God knows how many close calls I've had!!
He did kind of a rolling stop, probably glancing to his right to see if there was a plane taking off.
If the kid jumped out from between cars, I'd fucking dynamite the brakes--despite the fact that I have the right of way (assuming I did have the right of way).
Small point of order, you wouldn't have the right of way. By definition, pedestrians
always have the right of way, even if they're jaywalking.
Actually, now that I think about it, I can only say for certainty that this is true in Texas. But I bet it's true everywhere. You can't have a law that even implies it might be okay to hit someone in certain circumstances. Better to make it always illegal, and then use legal discretion to
not bring charges against the driver when it was clearly unavoidable.

As a paraglider pilot I've spent plenty of time with clouds and learning about them; observing them grow and decay, watching them being lit in various stunning colours throughout the day and also flying near and in them (cumulus in particular). For more on clouds, take a trip to cloudappreciationsociety.org
Shot in South Australia during 2010 around Adelaide, Mt Lofty Ranges, Fleurieu Peninsula, Mid North and Flinders Ranges. Over 8800 photos constructed the master timelapse sequences that made the cut but I shot around 30,000 throughout the year collecting sequences.

When the round sun rises the first

One, two, three get up from the bed
give a great big yawn like a hippo...
Open both eyes nice and big
stretch out ...
Enjoy the happy imaginations
Don't forget happy happy things.
(short interlude)
In the morning with a refreshing breeze
when I'm chilling out...
When I look even better than usual
and everyhing I put on seems to be even prettier
When I walk listening to your favorite music
when I get to the bus on time...
When the rush hour is especially bad
but the guy in front of me gets up
When everything works out as expected
from now I set my own expectations
When I eat something very tasty
Oh my! Didn't even push but easy trip to the bathroom (LOL "easy trip to the bathroom" is two syllables in Korean)
Oh! When I leave on bonus vacation
Along with him, my love...
Just imagining this makes me feel so happy
Don't forget! Happy happy things.
(interlude)
When I see my friends for the first time in a while
When I just feel so good and I dance! my! ass! off!
When my brain just seems to work well
You don't say! I didn't even study but got a hun-dred
Oh! When you miss that someone
When you understand my feelings
Just imagining this will make you happy
Happy, happy things-
Something that anyone can do
if you want a happy life
Just imagining this will make you happy
Don't forget! Happy happy things.

This thing, if it had a way to slide the seat and back support horizontally and you could just roll people onto it, would be tres cool.

I like a good Helen Keller joke as much as the next fellow, but this is almost glurge-worthy. While Helen Keller was truly amazing and inspirational How about some mad props for Anne Sullivan? Who the heck remembers her?
http://www.wimp.com/helenkeller/Pretty impressive! I had never seen that footage before.
I have to admit though that I wasn't carefully reading your intro, and expected some hilarious Helen Keller jokes at the link. I kept waiting for the punch line and it wasn't until about a third of the way into the video that I realized it was the real deal.
Wow.
Is it not time to make a movie about Helen Keller? It seems about the only way to get something important into the most people's consciousness.
They made one in the 60s, but I think Jerry Bruckheimer could really give us something more in tune with today's audience.
Also, while looking for the name of the Helen Keller movie ("The Miracle Worker," by the way,) I came across this fascinating trailer:

He somewhat over represented his academic qualifications. His PhD is in contemporary sociology of Islam, not history of religions. There were other embellishments.
That same Fox News anchor
never asked a Baptist college professor why he wrote a book about Islam.

Great talking with ya, Doc
He somewhat over represented his academic qualifications. His PhD is in contemporary sociology of Islam, not history of religions. There were other embellishments.
You say "embellishments", I say simplifications. He was mercifully and patiently keeping the conversation on the interviewer's level, like any good teacher would. Why would the teacher move on to more advanced aspects of an idea when the student hadn't yet grasped the fundamentals?
I read a little and found that his (PhD) degree is in the sociology of religion, not only Islam. Also, his academic work to that point included a great deal of study and coursework in religion in a historical context (what else is there? religion of today?) giving him justification for his claims to be a historian, in my opinion.
Leaving aside the fact that the Ph.D. was in the sociology of religion, Reza Aslan’s dissertation adviser, Prof. Mark Juergensmayer, weighed in:
Since i was Reza’s thesis adviser at the Univ of California-Santa Barbara, I can testify that he is a religious studies scholar. (I am a sociologist of religion with a position in sociology and an affiliation with religious studies). Though Reza’s PhD is in sociology most of his graduate course work at UCSB was in the history of religion in the dept of religious studies. Though none of his 4 degrees are in history as such, he is a “historian of religion” in the way that that term is used at the Univ of Chicago to cover the field of comparative religion; and his theology degree at Harvard covered Bible and Church history, and required him to master New Testament Greek. So in short, he is who he says he is.
It is not unreasonable for a person who majored in the sociology of religion to consider himself a historian of religion if his emphasis during study was in history. There is a very large overlap between the fields, especially since “most of his graduate course work was in the history of religion in the dept of religious studies.”
What other embellishments did you notice?

LinkI was watching the Teen Choice Awards the other night while surfing around on the Cellar or something, and somebody else had the remote. I was only giving it about a third of my attention, because it was the Teen Choice Awards, and that's really all it deserved. Imbecile after imbecile was getting up there on the stage.
But then they gave some sort of lifetime achievement award to Ashton Kutcher. They showed all these clips from his career, and it occurred to me that he had been around for a while now and has really done a lot of stuff. Much more than you would realize until you start counting it all up. And he was actually pretty talented to be doing all that stuff.
So he get up there on stage, and the first thing he does is start joking about how he's getting the old geezer award at a Teen Choice Awards ceremony. That instantly drew me in, because this was a guy who has actually got a clue about what's going on, and where he fits in.
And then he proceeded to give probably the best awards show speech I have ever heard. Lookout posted this over on FB because he thought it was great, and that made me realize that this was a speech that deserves to be seen. So here it is. Sorry for the poor video quality.
[YOUTUBE]oU5pR6o6HTA[/YOUTUBE]
The guy could be a teacher. He tells the audience what he's going to say. Then he actually says it in some detail with great examples, and then finally, he finishes by reminding the audience what he just said.
I like this guy. And now I respect him too.
it was good.
and he's right on target, too. mostly. *spoiler, I'm gonna reference his points* opportunity looking like work, yep, it does. but, not all hard, good work provides opportunity. sometimes it's just a grind. the hard work arc he describes is traced by countless others, a vanishingly few of which result in the same pinnacle upon which he rests there on stage. hard work *is* important, unquestionably. but starting conditions are also crucial, and so are other things less tangible things like poverty and education and gender and skin color that have a tremendous influence on "opportunity" (which still requires work, granted).
being sexy, itself, is a huge part of opportunity as it translates into getting the desirable attention of those who could deliver opportunity. still, his point about what is "sexy", a term that is accepted by and embedded in the psyches of his audience is well played by him, as he suggests to them a different definition of "sexy"; being smart and thoughtful and generous. good on him for delivering a better and healthier mindset wrapped in paper they already like (or did he just give them the opportunity to improve themselves by adopting this new attitude, leaving the hard work of living up to these standards of "sexy"?)
make a life, not live a life... a little vague, and the supporting arguments he makes are not ones I agree with. I don't agree that "all this you see around you was made by people *no smarter than you*". I don't agree with that. LOTS of what I enjoy, take for granted, was thought up and produced by people lots smarter than me (usually in very specific areas, but we're talking about very specific aspects of life). I really like the message he's trying to deliver "you can be anything and make anything you can dream up, just like everything you see around you was dreamt up by someone" (paraphrasing), and he saves this important exhortation for the end when he's got his maximum momentum, but it doesn't follow for me. the second part of his point, to live thoughtfully, with an eye for what could be and don't be a sheep--that's good advice and I agree with it.
It was a good speech, and he delivered good points well. He was talking to a very receptive audience ("WEE LUV YOOOOOOUUU", which always helps). I think he's got a handle on it.
Oh, there were some flaws in his speech, but it was outstanding compared to the ones that surrounded it.
Thoughtful and sexy on rye bread with some mayonnaise.

NPR this morning, I heard the story of work recently published in
Science. It's the first instance of mechanical gears found naturally occurring in the wild.
Apparently the nymph planthopper insect likes to jump to move around. And to jump well, it need both legs to kick off at exactly the same time, otherwise it goes off in the wrong direction, or just spins around. Since its nervous system isn't yet up to the task, it uses gears that interlock so when one leg starts to kick off, the other leg does too.
In order to film this extremely fast movement, the scientists glued the little critters to the table on their backs, and tickled their tummies while filming with an extremely high speed camera they could then slow down.
The video clearly shows gears!

hard to tell BUT the pilot on top, by regulations and safety should have maintained visual separation from the other aircraft. there was no way for the pilot on the bottom to see the plane above him due to the high wing design.
I read the top plane came down on the lower.

From the Witney Gazette.
After working as a blacksmith for more than 70 years, Fred Harriss knows all about earning a living by the sweat of his brow.
Sadly, when he finally laid down his tools and left the forge, he found he was less qualified to nail down the intricacies of the pension and benefits system.
Mr Harriss, is now at home at Charlbury working on his autobiography, charting a career that began at the age of ten, when he arrived at a forge in Langford in west Oxfordshire, to work 12 hours every Saturday for 6d (two-and-a-half pence).
At one point, it had looked like Mr Harriss’s book was set to have the saddest of endings.
For at the age of 82, only months after a long overdue retirement, Mr Harriss found himself in serious financial difficulty.
“I got to the point where I had no money in the bank. Things got so bad I was preparing to sell my home and move in with my son.”
He says he was even having to rely on his children and grandchildren for food.
When he retired at the end of 2009, the great-grandfather of eight was receiving a basic £97-a-week pension. But he was forced to spend a quarter of that on council tax, mortgage repayments and bills.
“I was always too generous for my own good when it came to business. I suffered from people not paying their bills,” he said.
“I would have a Rolls-Royce outside if I added up all the work I did that I was never paid for. It still disgusts me that small businesses are often never paid. I also went through two divorces.”
Mr Harriss also found himself faced with a battle with bowel cancer and having to look after his partner, who was suffering from Parkinson’s disease.
She has since been admitted into a care home.
Thankfully, he was put in touch with Age UK Oxfordshire by West Oxfordshire District Council staff, who happened to be fitting a shower at his bungalow.
The charity, which is running the Give An Hour Campaign with The Oxford Times, helped him to apply for benefit entitlements.
It was found he should have been receiving pension credits, housing and council tax relief.
Mr Harriss, who celebrated his 83rd birthday on Sunday, recalls: “The lady who came was related to someone who knew all about steam engines. So we got on famously. At the time I was just about to go into hospital for a cancer operation. I was grateful that she was able to take over.”
Jessica Brown, of Age UK Oxfordshire, readily recalls the case.
“What it showed for me is that some elderly people do need extra help when it comes to the benefit system, even if it is a person who knows how to apply and can fill in the form.
“There are complications and the pension system can get it wrong. Many people do not realise that. We pick up on errors all the time because we are aware of what people are entitled to.
“We provide extra advice and information about the different benefits that may be available, including advice on community care rights and the social care system.
“The pension service send out one person to help pensioners. But if they don’t have all the forms then and there, they don’t get a second visit.”
Mr Harriss even received an apology from the Department for Work and Pensions and received backdated payments and compensation for £86. The financial worry had an impact on his health, and last week Mr Harriss was heading back to hospital for a hernia operation.
But already he is looking forward to getting back home to continue work on his book about his life in a dirty, back-breaking job that he nevertheless loved.
He also looks in at the forge at Sturt Farm, near Burford, where the blacksmith business F.C. Harrris & Sons is based, to see how his son Martin is performing.
That’s what he really enjoys.
The old blacksmith was, after all, never one for mere paperwork.
Live in boxes? Why not?

That's a strange thing to see. Grinds them up nicely.
I can't help but to think of all the effort required to make a car. Then it's completely broken down in seconds. It's a good thing to recycle for something else that will take months or years to engineer, design, manufacture, source, assemble and distribute.
I'm thinking of all the perfectly good used components still in those cars that would be appreciated by the people who could use them, if only you could connect them to the right people.
One man's treasure is another man's junk.
After this video finished playing, there was a thumbnail of a cute VW bug getting shredded. They did it as a gag, where somebody drove the VW up to a reserved parking lot and then a forklift picked it up and dropped it in the shredder. Shame to shred a car that still works. I'm sure there are lots of needy people who would love a running car as easy to tinker with as a VW bug.

All is not lost. There's a firm near here which has a thriving business breaking up cars and selling on such components as can be salvaged.
I believe that they only crush cars which have been involved in an accident.

Many years back I'd be sitting in traffic on the way to work and see several trucks headed for the shredder loaded with cars that looked better than what I was driving. :haha:
They were headed for one in Philly at the foot of the Platt bridge, where a steady stream of tractor trailers and flatbeds would bring in cars that had the tops flattened, for shredding. The cars would ride up a conveyer in a steady stream, like a damn amusement park, then at the top drop out of sight. In seconds there would be shredded steel shooting out of one port, plastic out another, non-ferrous metals out another, and finally the fluff from upholstery/foam rubber/tires out it's own port.
These cars are supposed to be drained of fluids with the battery and fuel tank(s) removed, but every once in awhile there would be a big badda boom, where somebody forgot to take a gas tank out.
The biggest eats 450 cars an hour, but that's in Wales so they're little bitty cars
I heard a scrap company was gobbling all the little guys in this area and would consolidate the shredding in either Camden or Eddystone(old Scott foam) so they could load the shredded material directly on ships bound for China.
This was made in January 2013 and shows a flock of sheep being moved from their pasture on the edge of Wendover, down the High Street and back to the farm a few weeks prior to lambing.
Wendover doesn't look at its best during the winter and the dull day didn't help matters. The same could probably be said for the accompanying music. Anyway, enjoy or cringe!

Is it necessary, or even practical, to move the flock through town, or just a tradition that took on a "we've-always-done-it-this-way", life of it's own.

In this instance the pasture is only three quarters of a mile from the farm and it was the quickest and easiest way of doing it. It would take several trailer loads to do the job and probably take longer to do it when loading and waiting for the transport to return are taken into account. I think it provided a few minutes public entertainment on a dull January day, but no doubt someone complained.

Thanks for the wolf video, Bruce. I had the good fortune of visiting Yellowstone in 2004 and although I saw a quite staggering variety of wildlife, didn't see any wolves.
I have a vivid recollection of seeing an Osprey just by Buffalo Bill Reservoir as I was returning to Cody from my visit. It wasn't very high and as it turned towards the car I caught the piercing gaze of its eyes. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up as they are doing now at just the memory of it. Happy Days.
Osprey location.
By the way, even the sheep drive on the left over here::D
Sure, much easier than trailering. I was just wondering if there was an alternate route for driving/herding rather than down High Street. If so, choosing the high Street route could be the result of (a)tradition, (b) in your face, city slickers, or even (c) I have to pick up the dry cleaning on the way.

It's the shortest and most practical route to use. The only alternative would build in more potential distractions for the sheep and traffic management would be a real headache.
There’s a right to drive livestock on a public highway with a few exceptions, the most significant being on a motorway. However, farmers will use a large helping of common sense before exercising that right especially in congested areas. Like any of us these days, they are well aware of the possibility of causing an accident or otherwise finding themselves on the receiving end of a lawsuit of some sort or another. Additionally, they’ll weigh up other pitfalls. Consequently sheep will never be moved down the High Street on a Thursday which is when the local produce market takes place. The mind boggles at the thought of the havoc likely to be caused by three hundred marauding sheep. No doubt the fruit and veg stall would be the first to succumb.
Your questions prompted me to research a bit deeper. I was aware of having seen an old postcard of sheep resting on the Manor Waste at the top of the High Street and, by the wonders of Google Images, I managed to find it. It seems that it was a regular resting place for animals en-route to the livestock market in Aylesbury. I suspect that the picture dates from about 1910 but can’t say for sure.
I've uploaded it together with a clip filched from Street View although they've appeared the wrong way round!
So it's practicality, rather than tradition or spite. Thank you Sir. :thumb:

This data visualisation was created from real flight data taken from a day in July 2013. It highlights the intensity of the operation in Europe - an operation which runs 24x7x365. NATS and the UK are at the heart of the operation. With Heathrow as the busiest international airport in Europe, and Gatwick as the busiest single runway airport in the word, we play a key role in ensuring air traffic under our control in European airspace is as safe and efficient as it can be.

When I flew with my family to Heathrow from Dulles a couple years ago, we totally traced one of those heavy lines. The cool thing was we overshot London and then made a U turn to come into Heathrow from the East, since it looks like that's always the direction for the landing air traffic, and I had a window seat as we flew low above South London. I could see Tower Bridge and Big Ben right outside my freakin window as we landed. It was so awesome.
Later, visiting Windsor, it was amazing to me how every 747 departing Heathrow flies almost directly over Windsor Castle. I guess the Queen doesn't have enough pull to have prevented the runways from being aimed directly at her house. Actually now that I think of it, maybe they were landing and not taking off. I can't remember. But they were about every minute and flying very close to the castle.

Coverage is particularly good over the UK especially the London area. As I type, Heathrow inbounds are approaching from the east, ie over Windsor and departing over the city.
ETA I've just been looking at coverage in the Washington area. I see that Arlington isn't too far from Reagan Int'l and Dulles isn't a million miles away. Hope that there is something of interest there for you.

I think it all has to do with general wind patterns at the given moment. Heathrow is only a few miles to the west of the castle and planes generally take off with the wind or land into it. Most of my flights into Heathrow have brought us right over the city and along the Thames to land.
Here in Houston I live just a few miles north-north-east of IAH and we hear and see jets taking off since most of the time we have a prevailing wind from the Gulf of Mexico. The big 747s like those of BA and KLM are really loud and typically fly right along highway 59 not far from my home. Most days you can set your watch by them as they go by.

The prevailing wind is from the west and Heathrow's runways are aligned East/West. (09L/27R and 09R/27L).
At the moment we have a high pressure area sitting over the country giving rise to easterly winds hence approaching over Windsor to land into wind. The airport had a runway aligned NE/SW (05/23) which was very handy for those winter days when strong south westerlies blow in from the frequent Atlantic low pressure areas. Unfortunately, this runway was closed some years ago to provide more terminal/apron space and, as happened a few weeks ago, many aircraft had to divert to Stansted, amongst other places, because the cross wind component at Heathrow was out of limits.
Seeing the runway through the side window can concentrate the mind wonderfully. The Emirates A380 at approx 3.00 being a case in point.

Funny but in 1929 my grandfather came back from China with almost 30 years of service in the Chinese Postal service (technically the Brits running the postal service as the French had the Customs service) and finally settled on a small plot of land near Bishop's Stortford, Great Hallingbury I believe.
It's not far from Stansted. We actually looked up and met the current owner of my grandfather's home and he was nice enough to invite us in for a tour. Sent him some pictures of it being built in 1930. My father used to hunt deer and rabbits in The New Forrest, which is now called the Hatfield Forest National Preserve.
It's not far from Stansted.
It's not part of the country that I know, so I had to look at a map.
Oh, Heavens! Great Hallingbury is only about half a mile from the end of Stansted's runway. Must be Hell on Earth living there now.

Photographers have always had fun playing with super wide-angle lenses, but German videographer Jonas Ginter has found a way to conquer the world with them. At least, that's what it looks like from his latest video, which miniaturizes our planet to an adorable scale. The video's known as a stereographic projection — it's named for a technique that turns a spherical surface into a 2D plane. Before going for a bike ride, Ginter first needed to make a camera rig that could capture nearly 360-degree video, and to do so he stuck six GoPro cameras together with a custom-designed, 3D-printed mold. The end result is a wonderfully quirky perspective. It's not the first time we've seen this technique in action (some are even using Google Street View images to make similar videos), but Ginter's final product is impressive.
It's a pretty neat little video. I highly recommend going to Vimeo to watch in full screen.

I've never been a fan of gliding, much preferring to have an engine in front of me.
However, when the 'ordure interfaces with the air conditioning', having gliding experience can pay dividends.
Capt Sullenberger of Hudson River fame is living proof of that.
I love that video. It's amazing how the glider keeps its speed up, and at the very end appears to gain elevation in a thermal.
Great, perfect music for it too. Because gliders use the thermals, rising heated air columns most often found near hills and cliffs(and skyscrapers), similar to a surfer using waves. I wonder if there are rules about how low or close to people/structures you can legally fly?
Great, perfect music for it too. Because gliders use the thermals, rising heated air columns most often found near hills and cliffs(and skyscrapers), similar to a surfer using waves. I wonder if there are rules about how low or close to people/structures you can legally fly?
In the UK the rule is that an 'aircraft shall not fly closer than 500' to any person, vehicle, vessel or structure, or below 1500' over the congested area of any city, town or settlement, or below such height as would enable it to alight clear in the event of failure of a power unit, whichever is the higher'.
That was engrained upon my memory for years but I accept that I might not have managed to quote it verbatim. I did me best, sir!
BTW, also applies to gliders, balloons and airships and I suspect that the position is similar in the US. Will stand corrected if necessary.
Yes, the general rules are similar, except your 1500 ft rule is replaced with a 1000 ft rule.
1000 ft rule
An aircraft must maintain an altitude of 1,000 feet above the highest obstacle within a horizontal radius of 2,000 feet of the aircraft over any congested area of a city, town, or settlement, or over any open air assembly of persons.
However, I couldn't find if gliders are lumped in with powered aircraft like over there.
I found an 84 page pfd, labeled "THE BRITISH GLIDING ASSOCIATION, BRONZE CERTIFICATE CONFUSER", multiple choice, with the correct answers bolded. This confirms your assessment of gliders being subject to aircraft rules.

QUESTION 6. In a glider, which of the following defines visual flight rules

B. 1500 feet vertically and 1000 feet horizontally from cloud and in sight of the ground.
C. 1000 feet vertically and 1500 feet horizontally from cloud and in

D. Clear of cloud, and in sight of the surface, in a flight visibility of 1500 metres when airspeed is 140 kts or less.

Overview
That's the title, not my description. This beautiful video is worth watching fullscreen.
On the 40th anniversary of the famous ‘Blue Marble’ photograph taken of Earth from space, Planetary Collective presents a short film documenting astronauts’ life-changing stories of seeing the Earth from the outside – a perspective-altering experience often described as the Overview Effect.
The Overview Effect, first described by author Frank White in 1987, is an experience that transforms astronauts’ perspective of the planet and mankind’s place upon it. Common features of the experience are a feeling of awe for the planet, a profound understanding of the interconnection of all life, and a renewed sense of responsibility for taking care of the environment.
‘Overview’ is a short film that explores this phenomenon through interviews with five astronauts who have experienced the Overview Effect.

Jackie's top ten stunts. One of the guiltiest pleasures of his movies is to watch the outtakes and bloopers that the credits are rolled over at the end of some of his movies, ambulances, cervical collars and blood and all. Yeeee-ikes!

She's very graceful, isn't she. I noted just on the last landing shot that the winglets/tips are practically absent. Clearly not an oversight. I wonder what it is about the shape of that wing that makes it just as effective without the winglets that I see in many other jetliners of that (approximate) scale.
They found the blended winglets gave less vortices drag, hence better mileage, than the other designs. Also strangely enough, appearance of the upright wing tips made some people uncomfortable. Maybe Peter Benchley's fault.

Why a robot will replace your job, and you will be unemployable.
[YOUTUBE]7Pq-S557XQU[/YOUTUBE]
First thing we do, let's kill all the automation engineers.
I'm too awful for another professional job and too qualified for a factory job (it's not that I think that, I'm gauging that by lack of response.) It's getting very depressing. What's even more depressing is these 'professional' organizations not even bothering to send a 'fuck you' letter. They don't even bother being nice anymore. Don't have to. There will always be someone who will be happy to work for the man.
I don't know what I'll end up doing. It's just awful. :( Well, that helped my depression.
Well, I haven't hit the real pavement hard, yet. There are a couple places where I can walk in and apply and appeal to them right then and there. I know my spiel; I know my place. "I just want to WORK! I want a physical job. I want to be here every day." I've been so busy doing various jobs for my family I just haven't yet. Next week, when I'm done house-sitting.
But I have spent so much time filling out apps and tweaking my resume. It can take 2-3 hours to sufficiently (in my mind) apply for the public sector jobs I'm used to. I think the whole thing with my last job, reason for leaving, gets me a 'no' right off the bat. That place pretty much fucked up my life, in more ways than one.
Oh it'll work out. It always does.
Sorry, personal tangent, there. :blush:
When you start looking hard, you may want to start with temp agencies. You might get enough variation in assignments to get an idea of what you can/want to do or maybe you'd like the temporary gigs.
That's a good idea! Thanks!
I got my current job by temping here 24 years ago and then getting hired because they liked me. Temping can be great.
I got hired into a plastic molding operation from temping there.
The thing I liked about temp agencies, was if I didn't particularly like the current job, I could call them, and unless there was just nothing else, they always had me a different location to go to the next day.
Warning: You will be the lowest form of life to most of the regular employees, regardless of where you temp. Probably. We were.
Temping is awesome! You're never there long enough to get bogged down in office politics. Plus, like glatt said, you can get hired and bumped up the chain to some pretty interesting jobs you never expected. A friend of mine works as a paralegal for a company that makes flight simulators, specializing in the process of international exports of these products, and she started as a temp at the front desk that they liked and hired.

(Oh but don't skip over the crowdfunding part, that's the whole point!)
Gist of it all, in case you want to reduce your reading load as much as your video load:
Information workers are going to be automated out just like factory workers.
Reason this is bullshit: Econ 101 tells us that, when the cotton gin was invented, there was a tremendous cry from workers who would be automated out of work. As the video points out, this type of automation has reduced our workload and generated tremendous amounts of wealth. The cotton workers got better and nicer jobs. But now, they claim, there's something different going on because now knowledge workers will be automated.
And then they point out that this has already been happening
And then they fail to point out why this has been bad for us so far
After 150 years of automating the shit out of everything we could possibly automate... including tons of information workers I assure you... we have single-digit unemployment and big screen TVs and work in air-conditioned offices instead of doing back-breaking labor on farms...
So what if the doctors are automated? Won't that mean that healthcare will be much much much cheaper than it is today? I thought from the last decade that healthcare is bleeding the economy dry. What would happen if that gordian knot was disentangled? You say that would be bad now?
Nobody has a real answer to this, because it's unknown and unpredictable. But that's where the opportunity to scare you comes in. Isn't it frightening that we can't actually predict the future? What if it sucks and we're all poor? Well that has never been the case, things have only gotten way way way way way better, and these folks have failed to point out why this would be different, this time. But if you are worried about it just save your money and don't give to their crowdfunding effort.
It's an interesting idea.
If everything becomes automated, then we don't have to work, and the machines will take care of all our needs. Wealth like humanity has never seen it before.
But our economies have always been set up on expecting payment for goods. And we work to get the money to pay for the stuff. If machines do the work, we won't be getting that payment. The only source of money will be owning stock in the companies that own the machines. Or I suppose real estate. You could be a landlord.
I think humanity would have to come up with a different idea of what an economy is.
IM - Temping is a great idea or you could try a government job.
If push comes to shove, you could sit around as a mushroom and sponge off the government. Sometimes you can even get free cheese. It seems to work for me.

Payment for goods
or services, including most importantly, entertainment. Like that horse analogy that they used in the video... the horses aren't all dead, it's just that now we ride them for fun instead of work. On beaches and dude ranches and camps for children. You can easily rent half a dozen ponies for a child's birthday party.
Think about the incredible variety of media we have today, compared to 100 years ago. I can choose from an ever-deepening matrix of movies and TV shows that appeal to my very specific, nuanced tastes. I don't care how good the machines get, we are a long, long way off from artificially-generated live-action films. And that music that we were supposed to be impressed was composed by a computer? It wasn't that great, and more importantly it didn't involve voice, which is what the majority of people want in their music.
On the one hand, the video is right to point out that the majority of creative types aren't making a living at it. On the other hand, the number who
are making a living at it is exponentially higher than it used to be. Jobs which will not be automated in the upcoming revolution:
Videogame designer
Interior designer
Fashion designer
Live performers
Musicians
ALL movie jobs
Massage therapist
Childcare
Eldercare
Dentistry
Teachers (professors may go, but studies have shown again and again that screens are useful but fundamentally cannot compete with human interaction for young children.)
Chef (the luxury of quality food ingredients and preparation is already making a comeback)
Judges/Jurors (grand jurors already get paid, and I can see a time where they fully professionalize this arena)
Trial lawyers (maybe a computer can do discovery and write boilerplate briefs, but a computer cannot give an impassioned speech over guilt and innocence.)
I'd agree with most of that...
...except maybe for musicians. A good deal of those are somewhat automated already.

Then Koch brothers proclaim the robots are people and get two votes each. ;) Maybe my imagination is too far in the future... but

Oh, absolutely. But look at the credits for rendered films, there are three times as many creative types working on them, maybe more. The secret to those films is that no one person comes up with all the stuff that makes them great. Even successful sitcoms and dramas require entire teams of writers. And more than that, the storyline, the jokes, the character design, everything is going to be dependent on current culture in order to strike a chord with audiences, which computers will never be able to keep up with. A computer might figure out that a puffy blue bear captures kids' eye contact more than a skinny red bear, but it will never understand why making it dance the Macarena is hilarious, but the Charleston falls flat. Or why that maybe reverses in another 50 years when no one remembers the ironic club dance, but ironic swing dancing is making another comeback.
IM. I did some temp work for Man power years ago while going to electronic school. I did a few jobs for one company and then bypassed man power and contracted the work.
I think that was for Stein mart, setting up new stores.
Oh, absolutely. But look at the credits for rendered films, there are three times as many creative types working on them, maybe more. The secret to those films is that no one person comes up with all the stuff that makes them great.
Yes, they're labor intensive at the moment. Each person or group working on such a little portion of the film means they pour their creative juices into the details to amuse themselves, and the people they work with. The Disney animators did the same thing for the same reason when it was all rendered by hand.
How ever the key is "at the moment". When we try to look down the road at how things will be, we're making assumptions about how robots(technology) will advance. That's why I picture one dude/dudette, sitting at a mic dictating the story line to a completely automated production robot(s).
But once again...
Maybe my imagination is too far in the future... but
:haha:
On the other hand, the number who are making a living at it is exponentially higher than it used to be.
Even better: jobs will exist which we do not know about today, and can't even anticipate, because we don't know what advances will come about.
We look at the jobs which will go away, and we have fear. Look at the jobs that have gone away in our lifetime and our parents' lifetimes. Every office had a POOL of people whose job it was to merely type things. Every single telephone switch had a human making connections manually and speaking to the users. Every elevator had a person whose job it was to close the doors and raise and lower the car. These jobs are gone. They have mostly been replaced with better ones.
How many jobs have been created since 1914.
Here is a list of the 50 most common job titles in the US. Let's just do the top 10. Did these exist 100 years ago?
Physical therapist - did not exist
Occupational therapist - did not exist
Administrative Assistant - did not exist
Teller - existed
Registered Nurse - existed
Manager - existed
Project Manager - did not exist
Driver - existed
Customer Service Representative - did not exist
Accountant - existed
These are not just any jobs, these are the most common jobs today, and in 1914 half of them were not recognized professions. Onto Clod's list of what she, and we, anticipate are the kinds of jobs that will be more popular in the future. Did they exist 100 years ago?
Videogame designer - did not exist
Interior designer - did not exist
Fashion designer - existed but in lower numbers
Live performers - existed but in lower numbers
Musicians - existed but in lower numbers
ALL movie jobs - existed
Massage therapist - did not exist
Childcare - did not exist except for the rich
Eldercare - did not exist or was vastly different
Dentistry - existed but in lower numbers
Teachers - existed
Chef - existed but in lower numbers, mostly for the rich, our restaurant culture had not yet evolved
Judges/Jurors - existed but juror not a profession
Trial lawyers - existed
The history of humanity so far is we get richer, smarter, healthier and right now we are at the peak of a game that began tens of thousands of years ago. There is no reason this trend should stop. In fact it's accelerating, with billions of people suddenly turning productive.
No need to fear. The jobs are going to be plentiful, and they are going to ROCK. And we will probably work 4 hours a day, if the last 100 years tell us anything about the next 100.

ACTUALLY, I was referring to the video xoB posted. The fingers of the street performer.
However, I have returned to the link you posted and he's putting his fingers at risk too, no question. I watched him touch up his razor to slice off the selvedge and winced a little. By the way, your link needs some editing. It starts well into the video, bypassing practically all of the construction bits.

Two container ships collided at the northern end of Egypt's Suez Canal, delaying traffic through a vital global trade route, shipping sources said on Monday.
The German-flagged MV Colombo Express and the Singaporean-flagged MV Maersk Tanjong collided at the mouth of the canal, knocking three containers from the Colombo Express into the sea, the sources said.
The collision is expected to delay Suez traffic in both directions.
"The incident has severely interrupted the second southbound convoy and the northbound convoy is therefore expected to be delayed," Agents Inchape Shipping Services said.
The Suez Canal is one of the world's most strategic waterways, facilitating much of the maritime trade between Europe and Asia, providing about $5 billion in annual revenue for Egypt.
Both ships remain moored in the canal lakes as Suez authorities fish the containers out of the water and complete an investigation.
No casualties were reported, but the Colombo Express sustained a 20-metre (65-ft) dent to its left side, Agents Inchape said.
I don't know quite what to make of this.
It is difficult to tell if the vessel on the right is overtaking another, or whether that on the left wishes to cross in front of it.
I understand that an overtaking vessel is required to remain clear of the slower vessel and not impede its progress in any way.
Equally, when it comes to giving way, the vessel 'on the right is in the right'.
No doubt the Master of each vessel will have the discomfort of a 'hats on' interview without refreshments.
Each of these vessels has a dead weight of over 100,000 tons and is approximately 1100' in length. Not exactly inconspicuous, are they?
nor agile.
Good point.
However, given the apparently good visibility, conspicuity of both vessels and probability of them being in VHF communication with one another, it seems odd that they attempted to be in the same place at the same time.
I suppose that the Swiss Cheese principle might be in play here. All those holes finally lined up.
Wow. It all happened so fast.
Wow. It all happened so fast.

[YOUTUBEWIDE]HMV7W0QClkA[/YOUTUBEWIDE]
Admittedly not all the circumstances of this collision are known, but on the basis of what can be seen above, it looks as though the Master of the Hapag Lloyd vessel might have some explaining to do.
In fairness, the gap in the Maersk Tanjong's displayed track might have deprived us of some significant information.
ETA Ships pass through the Suez Canal in convoys. I wonder if a wish to get a good place in the queue might have some bearing on it.

@ Toad - that dancer is amazing. I have seen her before. What really struck me is that, whilst she is leaving verylittle to the imagination with her outfit, and she is much more sensual in her movements, it was a lot less overtly sexual than the Ukrainian girl - who went for a much more strip club vibe in her dance.
The level of control that lass has over her body is incredible. She must be sooooo strong. She doesn't seem to be using momentum the way te Ukrainian girl does, she just sort of - moves with ease and fluidity. Lovely to watch.

There's a real happy ending to this as well - some months later, Miley was rehomed:
Toni, was selected among +500 applicants, and we quickly knew she was "the one" for Miley. Together with her late-husband, she raised a total of four rescue Huskies during their 40-year blessed marriage. Her veterinarian gave us a glowing recommendation. Toni also had an army of animal-loving friends (including an actress, a former Mayor, and a reputable animal rescuer) who vouched for her as a responsible, caring pet owner. Her entire home was designed to accommodate Husky-type dogs, like Miley, who may often dig holes, escape, and exhibit prey-drive.
-snip-
Both Toni and Miley also understood each other on a much deeper level. As Toni wrote in a letter to Miley, "It seems like we both have been broken and have a second chance at a new life..." Toni lost her beloved husband to Parkinson's disease and shortly afterwards her elderly Husky went into the light. She also suffered from breast cancer, and had to put on her suit of armor to fight and win this battle. Toni no longer needs any surgeries and is doing fantastic!

Got popcorn? This is a full length (1.5hrs) movie. Rashômon, the 1950 classic.
Rashomon marked the entrance of Japanese film onto the world stage. It won several awards, including the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival in 1951, and an Academy Honorary Award at the 24th Academy Awards in 1952, and is now considered one of the masterpieces in film history.
The film is known for a plot device which involves various characters providing alternative, self-serving and contradictory versions of the same incident. The name of the film refers to the enormous city gate of Kyoto
Subtitled in English, certainly not everyone's cup of tea, but here if you're curious.

You'd think, as someone interested in gaming, and also interested in feminism, that a video series that examines games from a feminist perspective would be something I'd watch...but, as much as I am a feminist and am broadly interested in feminism - I am not really much of a one for feminist analyses. I don't know why really - maybe they make me too angry - maybe they sometimes seem a bit too narrow and a bit too focused on the Patriarchy and maybe because I had my fill of feminist history as an undergrad. Some of it I have always found a bit cringe inducing. Some of it seems a little too neat - like any ism analysis - once you start looking through that lens at something you see everything in that light.
So, I hadn't actually watched the Tropes -v- Women video series by Anita Sarkeesian that critiques games and the game industry from a feminist perspective, and which has garnered its author death threats, rape threats, and a lot of anger from gamers (primarily, but not exclusively male).
Much of what I 'knew' about this series was second hand - and I kind of bought the script a bit. I assumed that it must be a really, really strident, slightly anti-male gamer , over the top feminist analysis - for instance a lot o fgamers have said she argues that sexism and misogyny in games causes sexism and misogyny in gamers - and that violence in games causes violence in real life. Both arguments with which I vehemently disagree.
So, I decided to actually watch the first of her series (Damsels in Distress - part 1). And it was so interesting that I ended up watching all three parts of the Damsel trope episodes.
I love games history - how games became what they are, the total nostalgia trip of games I used to play as a kid - the behind the scenes industry stuff that shaped the way games looked and look.
I am now a real fan of this show - I don't necssarily agree with every conclusion, but her overall analysis and findings are pretty compelling, engaging and wittily framed. She looks at it in the round, examining the most common tropes and how they came about. It's fascinating!
I really highly recommend - and for those who break out in hives at the word patriarchy - it only gets mentioned a few times and is used in the proper way (a theoretical system of cultural power and control which impacts men and women, not the power that men have over women). It's mostly - well - a really interesting history and analysis of video games. It's quite funny - and well argued (for the most part). It looks not just at what the tropes are but where they come from, how they work and how they fit into wider culture.
If you are interested in games past and present and the history of their development (not to mention a nostalgia trip through the games ofthe past) I can highly recommend. The series starts with the damsel trope - done in three parts.

Most of this is really quite measured. She makes pretty clear that likingthese games, playing these games or even writing these games does not equate to being a sexist. She says, outright, that there is no conspiracy amongst games makers to objectify women - that make games makers are not deliberately setting out to do so. And that in and of themselves, most of these games are not bad games.
I am not really much of a one for feminist analyses. I don't know why really - maybe they make me too angry - maybe they sometimes seem a bit too narrow and a bit too focused on the Patriarchy and maybe because I had my fill of feminist history as an undergrad.

I suspect you're more attuned to Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité, or maybe "Liberty and Justice For All". :cool:
Ha!
Maybe. But, I have a similar reaction to most marxist analysis too - despite being a socialist :P
They are useful - I think in history certainly, those perspectives have widened the field enormously, away from a fairly stale and narrow focus on elites and so on. But they often fall into the same teleological traps. The march of progress and all that. Again, they offer useful analytical tools and theoetical constructs which can help tie seemingly very disparate factors and events together into some kind of understandable narrative - but going in with one very specific worldview can blind as much as it illuminates.

“No. 6207 A Study in Steel” is a 1935 documentary about the processes required to build a steam engine, it starts with bare sheet metal and shows you all the major tasks that are performed to turn those sheets into a fully functioning steam train.
Anyone who has even a passing interest in vehicles or engineering should give this one a watch, it’s only 17 minutes long and the entire process is genuinely fascinating.
Tons of steel on the move, drop forging, molten metal and red hot rivets are just some of the hazards shown in this film.
There's not a hard hat, safety boot, ear defenders or protective goggles in sight.
It's an industrial safety nightmare. I wonder what the injury record was like?

I'm guessing, quite full.
By 1935 the processes were pretty refined so there weren't many big surprises. If you were paying attention, there was a small chance of getting hurt. The problem is you had to be paying attention 99% of the time which is tough to do 12 hours a day six days a week.
If you screwed up, got caught off guard, it was usually serious. :(

I've never had Terrier Foie Gras. I guess a MA or RI wine, maybe something from the Cape,
They are not exactly sneaky.
As I was walking to my office from the Metro, there was a low flying helicopter doing big sweeping loops above my office building. It takes me about 5-10 minutes to walk to my office from the metro stop, and I was watching the helicopter the whole time as I got closer. It was really low and loud. And then I saw flashing lights on the other end of my building, so I walked toward them and saw that cops were positioned by a series of intersections along NY ave. So then I looped around my building and into a door on the other side. I went up to my floor. Dropped my lunch off in the pantry refrigerator. Got some coffee, and instead of going to my office, I went to a conference room down the hall and stood by the window.
I watched cops going back and forth and a police dog being led around sniffing at garbage cans. Both foot and car traffic was still moving at this point. Then after a few minutes, car traffic was blocked. And then a few minutes later, foot traffic was held in place.
So then I got my camera phone out, and set it to video. I moved a white garbage can that was next to the window, because it was causing too bright a reflection.
And then a few minutes later, I saw the first motorcycle of the motorcade. So I started videoing.
All told, I had about 20 minutes to prepare to get this video. And I was able to take the time because we had an ice storm, and our office was opening late, so even though it was 9:30, I was early to work and nobody was around.
I hope this is worth it. It's just some cars driving by.

Maybe I didn't see the President, but instead saw the Bidens on their way to Guatemala. But normally, a trip like that starts with a helicopter ride to Andrews AF Base. Maybe the VP doesn't warrant a helicopter, but it seems like air travel to Andrews would be cheaper for the taxpayer than that huge entourage and all the cops to block the intersections all along the way. If you were going to Andrews from the White House in a car, you would take NY ave. though. It goes pretty much straight there.
Or maybe the President got his morning briefing earlier than they claimed and ran some secret errand before his 11:00 meeting back at the White House.
I always thought the VP motorcade was smaller than that and didn't have the ambulance.
But what do I know? It's not like they brief me. It's all a mystery to me. And not a very interesting one.

NASA | Earthrise: The 45th Anniversary
Published on Dec 20, 2013
In December of 1968, the crew of Apollo 8 became the first people to leave our home planet and travel to another body in space. But as crew members Frank Borman, James Lovell, and William Anders all later recalled, the most important thing they discovered was Earth.
Using photo mosaics and elevation data from Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO), this video commemorates the 45th anniversary of Apollo 8's historic flight by recreating the moment when the crew first saw and photographed the Earth rising from behind the Moon. Narrator Andrew Chaikin, author of A Man on the Moon, sets the scene for a three-minute visualization of the view from both inside and outside the spacecraft accompanied by the onboard audio of the astronauts.
The visualization draws on numerous historical sources, including the actual cloud pattern on Earth from the ESSA-7 satellite and dozens of photographs taken by Apollo 8, and it reveals new, historically significant information about the Earthrise photographs. It has not been widely known, for example, that the spacecraft was rolling when the photos were taken, and that it was this roll that brought the Earth into view. The visualization establishes the precise timing of the roll and, for the first time ever, identifies which window each photograph was taken from.
The key to the new work is a set of vertical stereo photographs taken by a camera mounted in the Command Module's rendezvous window and pointing straight down onto the lunar surface. It automatically photographed the surface every 20 seconds. By registering each photograph to a model of the terrain based on LRO data, the orientation of the spacecraft can be precisely determined.

With the 60th anniversary of VE Day looming and the publication of the audio Winston Churchill's Greatest Speeches: Never Give In!, BBC Audiobooks commissioned a nationwide survey asking children, aged between 8 and 11, if they knew who Sir Winston Churchill was.
An encouraging 52% knew that Churchill, recently voted 'Greatest Briton of All Time', was a former British Prime Minister.
Amusingly, 17% of those surveyed by BMRB believed he was the dog in the Churchill insurance adverts and 7% thought he was a TV news presenter.
One in five children had no idea who Sir Winston was while a few had a stab at guessing, suggesting he was 'a saint' or 'someone at the Hendon RAF Museum'.
Grandson Winston S. Churchill, who was involved in selecting and introducing the speeches for the audio Never Give In! commented: "I have to say it is a devastating commentary on our education system that 17% of young people should think Churchill is the Bulldog in the Insurance advertisements and a further 20% hadn't a clue!
"Why can't they be told the fantastic story of the 'Hero Generation' who saved the world from Hitler? It is thanks to the heroism and sacrifice of the British people that the nations of Europe are today free. But for them, under the leadership of Winston Churchill, the Nazi Swastika would today be flying over all the capital cities of Europe from London to Moscow - worth thinking about!"

Admittedly, this survey dates from 2005 but if it was repeated today I wouldn't expect the results to be any different.

"aged between 8 and 11"
I don't find it remotely worrying that 17 % of that age group think Churchill is the dog in a long running and somewhat omnipresent insurance advert. It doesn't give the age break down, but I would imagine it's skewed towards the younger end.
At 8-11 years old, just how much of the nation's history do we expect a child to have absorbed?
Frankly, I'm pretty impressed that 52% of children that young do know who Churchill was.

Here's a movie from 1916, well a movie short at 26 minutes, called The Mystery of the Leaping Fish.
"Coke Ennyday, the scientific detective(Douglas Fairbanks), divides his own time in periods for "Sleep", "Eat", "Dope" and "Drink". In fact he's used to overcome every situation with drugs: consuming it to increase his energies or injecting it in his opponents to KO them. To help the police he discovers a contraband of opium (which he eagerly tastes) transported with "Leaping Fishes", and the blackmail of a mysterious man who wants to marry the "fish blower" girl. Will Coke be able to free the girl ?"

I would have gotten out of there a hell of a lot faster though. Those power lines going down could have snapped and whipped back at the dude filming, decapitating him. And what if the landslide cut him off up ahead? He can move fast on the road, but he probably can't outrun it through the woods.

Back as a boy, I went to the Griffith Observatory in L.A. on a school outing,
where there was a bunch of displays with ball bearings bouncing onto
the tops of metal posts cut off at various angles.
... ending with the balls bouncing into a hole in the wall of the display.
Strange how things are remembered after 7 decades or more.
When we moved into our house, I thought about doing that sort of thing
based on a tennis ball floating up a tube of water to the top of a "cliff" above our house,
and then rolling down a track in and about the tree tops and hillside of our 2 acres of woods, etc.
But then... never did it. :(

I don't believe that's lead. The thermometer showed less than 600F and lead melts at something like 625F. Plus I've had the unfortunate experience of witnessing pot of molten lead blow from a small dose water off a tree branch on a rainy day. It's more likely an alloy like Bismuth-Tin-Antimony-etc.

LinkEXCELLENT point Gravdigr.
It's not immediately obvious what the driver behind the truck is seeing. That's an attention sink right there.
--thread drift--
True story:
Once upon a time, I drove (my favorite car of all time) a Triumph TR250. This was when I was young and living in Southern California. I had the Commute From Hell (C) eighty miles each way into work. AAaaannnnnyway. One day I was driving on the freeway into work and I found myself behind one of these
[ATTACH]52146[/ATTACH]
(a real rolling truck, not a finished tanker on a trailer). As I said, I loved that car. It was so pretty. I observed that if I followed pretty closely (carefully watching out for his brake lights) I could see myself in the slightly convex mirror finish of the tail end of the tanker. I could even see myself! Damn, I'm pretty! Look at that dashing sportscar driver! Mmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm. I posed (from the shoulders up), I gazed at, I admired me... Eventually, even I reached my fill of looking at me, so I broke off my tailgating contact and merged into the regular flow of traffic. I started to look for my normal exit so I could get to work.
I could not find my exit.
I had followed the truck well into Boyle Heights, some 20 miles away from the city where I worked.
OOPS.

Maybe distilled water. :confused:
I have doubts about all of that video.
I've seen at least a few demonstrations like that in person at the local children's museum. I think they're all real.
A unique rig. "Wood saw video"
The one thing that strikes me as odd is that he pushes the saw forward to make a cut and then pulls it back to make the next one. Circular saw blades are designed to go one way. You feed stock into the curve of the teeth of the blade, if you do the opposite the saw wants to pull into the stock which will usually dull the blade and/or stall the motor.

I'd definitely go for any of those real ladies, all of whom show off great personalities; and none of the models because models are by design going to be stuck-up entitled cunts. (But that's post age-20s wisdom)
ETA Buzzfeed did it for the headline, of course.
Oh, I figured most of the Cellar blokes would get a kick out the real* ladies in their swimsuits, that's why I posted it :P Perfection makes for a particular kind of beauty - it's like art, it's good to look at. There are other kinds of beauty - and what attracts us is a whole different story.
* I should qualify that: because behind each of those glamour shots is a real, breathing, thinking woman. But we all know that the models themselves generally don't look like that. Their every imperfection has been ironed out, through make-up and photo shop. It is an ideal only achievable for a moment, with a great deal of in-time and post-shoot intervention.
They certainly all have appeal. :hugnkiss:
I think it's a mistake to try to recreate and hold an exact pose because when models are doing it, they are constantly moving around while the photographer is taking hundreds, perhaps thousands, of pictures. The "pose" is just an instant in time that lasted a fraction of a second.

I grew up in LA in the late 40's during all the "Duck-And-Cover" business,
and many the adults went nuts thinking LA was going to be hit by an A-bomb.
Some of them with $ bought land out towards Palm Springs,
and started digging their own single-family "fallout shelters".
But we used to make fun of them because the prevailing winds would have blown
the radioactive cloud eastward out of LA and dumped it right on top of them.
If you drive that route (I-10 / Whitewater) now,
what you see are wind turbines generating power.

If you would give us your thoughts about each given video,
maybe... maybe... maybe... I'll watch it, depending on your comments.
Otherwise, it is likely that I'll skip right over them all.

OTOH, you could watch out of sheer curiosity. Besides, I've seen other Dwellars post vidz without commenting on them.

It reminded me of a documentary I saw years ago about the train
that runs north out of Winnepeg to Churchill, MB, Canada.
Starting with the initial tentative conversations between strangers in one of the train cars.
It gradually superimposed the soundtracks of one more conversation, then another.
By the end, you were acquainted with the people and how they spoke.
I was amazed that by the time the train reached Churchill,
I was able to follow 3 separate conversations simultaneously,
and knew which passenger was saying what.
Maybe that's what Air Traffic Controllers do too.

Anchor drop mishap.
[YOUTUBE]lLLBhIJbVFs[/YOUTUBE]
Drop of anchor went terrible wrong.....
No shit.
I guess the flames were from the 'brakes'?
I saw that video awhile back and sent to a guy who'd been in the Navy, figuring he'd get a kick out of it. He replied with several horror stories he'd personally witnessed in just a couple years, about anchor chains gone wild.:eek:
after I saw this video, I looked for other anchors gone wild videos and there is one that happened on a US Navy ship. But the chains are let out from below deck in that one and the room filled with smoke so quickly in the video, you couldn't see nearly as much. It looks like it's not that unusual for this to happen.
Brakes fail, and I guess there's no back up system. Being the anchor and chain are expensive, and can mean survival for a ship in trouble, I should think they'd have something. But I guess it doesn't happen often enough to warrant it.
This flash mob happened three years ago. Better not do that today. :headshake

I really found this video shocking. I can sort of understand if it's crowded and not immediately clear the child is unaccompanied, youmay just not notice her as you hurry by, but when there's virtually nobody else about and the kid is just clearly there alone...sweet jesus what is wrong with people?
[YOUTUBE]R5aIpUVAwZs[/YOUTUBE]
And this one - again made me feel really angry a few times- but also really heartened by others. The last few mins is really rather horrifying.
[YOUTUBE]vt9uSqV1RRk[/YOUTUBE]
In the first video, the girl did not seem to be frantic or distressed. The mall is a familiar place where people feel generally secure. Stopping to talk to a child might make some folks nervous because they don't want to be accused of being white T Shirt from video 2.
I'd have stopped. I know I'd have stopped, because I have done in the past in a shop, when I've seen a little one wandering about, seemingly alone.
Women can do that, it's risky for men.
I realise much harder for men. But there were plenty of women walking past.
In that first video, I'd have noticed the girl... And then immediately noticed the two women by the column just 15 feet away, both clearly watching her like hawks. I'd have concluded that this child is not, in fact, alone.
The problem with conducting the "experiment" close to Victoria Coach Station, is that it's a notorious area for pickpockets, beggars and scammers. The sad truth is that children have always been used in distraction-style robberies. Also, the team must have had clearance to film - I doubt a child alone on the street in the same place for long would not attract the attention of the police in real life.
I can't say about the American video of course. But I wonder if some of the reactions are again more to do with fear of crime/ being hustled than they are about fear of being labelled a paedophile.
Regardless of the above, yes I think I would have stopped.
Or at least gone back a few minutes later to check on what I thought I'd seen.
It's hard sometimes, if you're in a busy area, in a rush, on a schedule. I have approached children before, although they have been visibly distressed. Usually a querying look and a thumbs up is enough to establish whether a child is really lost or has just been having a tantrum. Asking a child if they are okay in a kind voice takes seconds, and cannot possibly pose any danger to anyone.
Exactly. You just check it out a bit.
You could argue this girl is a scammer by definition. She's not lost. She is lying when she says she is. She and the makers of the video are trying to scam all the passers by for the purposes of entertainment/news. Anyone who trusts their instincts that she is a lying scammer should be congratulated. They were right.

The utter stupidity and aggression that you see on the roads is enough to make your hair stand on end.
We all make mistakes but some of the actions in that video were definitely sins of commission and not omission.
Might is right seems to be the guiding principle for many drivers and sod everybody else.
It's probably fair to assume that human stupidity hovers around a constant level.
Combined with a growing population and the consequent increase in numbers of vehicles on the roads, things aren't likely to improve.
I wonder how many drivers have dispensed with the burdensome requirement of possessing a driving licence and insurance for the vehicle.

Excellent. He makes it look so easy. I know that's his skill showing.
I liked the pulley/brake set up. I just roped 'em and let them down by hand. Of course, I cut smaller pieces.:D
And the customer paid dearly for that shit.
Also, I wasn't no 120+ damn feet in the air.
Looks like a dead tree, too.
Rule for continuing to stay alive: Don't climb dead trees.
If I have a 52-foot bucket, somebody else can climb it, I don't need it.
Another thing:
When I climbed, I never, never, got used to the trunk moving after ya cut a big limb.
Highest I ever climbed was about 60 feet, and that was just to cut out a widowmaker.
Yeah, seeing him grabbing for his rope to feel just a little more secure after he makes enough of the cut, but before the limb lets go. One time, he swiped for the rope and missed it so swiped again with a little more urgency. Can't see how holding on to a loose rope would make you feel secure, but whatever it takes.
I love it that I can see that footage without having to be the one doing it.
Yes, he's working above a three way crotch where dead trees love to split. For safety, he's roped to the branch the cameraman is perched on. The falling cut-offs are also tied to that branch, if that splits they are both fucked. That three way crotch is what Lamplighter had. When the first broke it took out his roof, months later the second came very close to taking out him.
This look like a fun toy/tool. the drawbacks I see are it's probably expensive and it's electric.

I present to you, for your distraction, an inside view of the glatt family's poorly working dishwasher.
[YOUTUBE]ZycMo-hupRM[/YOUTUBE]
[YOUTUBEWIDE]ZycMo-hupRM[/YOUTUBEWIDE]
I went over to the forum at appliantology.org for opinions about why it is cleaning so poorly these days, and the leading opinion, with one responder, is that the water supply inlet screen is clogged after 15 years. Makes sense to me, since I've had to clean our kitchen faucet screen about once a year over those 15 years and have never once cleaned the dishwasher's screen.
I thought you might enjoy these 17 minutes of hot dishwasher action. I've got about 40 more minutes I can post, if you so desire.
GoPro in waterproof housing, and an LED trouble light double bagged in ziplock bags to cast a little light in the darkness.
That looks familiar. When I went to clean mine, I found the screen was indeed full of bleck. But even more importantly, one of the jet holes at the end of the rotating arm was plugged. Trouble was, a little piece of broken glass. It was big enough to obstruct most of the hole but small enough to fall back down into the hollow body of the sprayer arm. I could hear it rattling but I could never see it.
I finally got it by swinging the arm fast enough to fling the chunk to the end where I destroyed it with the pliers of my Leatherman. I crushed it up and made the tiny pieces small enough to pass through the hole.
The regular screen has three or four stainless steel screws. Obviously the racks come out, then the screws, then the screen. Totally worth it.
The screen I have to clean is a different screen. It will be where the fresh water supply hose under the washer attaches to the fill valve right under the float switch. I may be able to reach it without pulling the DW out from under the counter. It's not the big filter inside the DW tub.
That's all that happens in there?! Really? I remember dishwashers making a bunch of racket, vibrating and trying to walk across the kitchen...

If I semi-regularly run an empty load with one of those citric acid "dishwasher cleaner" powder things, will that also get to the screen you guys are talking about, or not? My dishwasher's doing okay, but I know we haven't done jack in the way of maintenance for it since we moved in 9 years ago.
that will probably help the screen BigV is talking about. It gets gunked up with old food particles and grease and stuff.

small and large, because the small version can be seen on Tapatalk while the big version can't
Just read the Wiki-article on Tapatalk. I don't have any mobile devices, so I wouldn't have known what you said.
Why not just post the small version? It's basically the same as watching a widescreen/letterboxed movie on an old 4:3 TV. The widescreen image is simply shrunk down to fit the 4:3 viewing area.
[YOUTUBE]etoom5WjfS8[/YOUTUBE]
Some people like the large version, which on most people's browsers, takes up a much larger section of screen. Others cannot see that version.
Videos that have details that take up a small portion of the frame, especially the phone videos that only use a third of the frame to begin with, can be seen better in a large frame. Also videos that are scenic or something like a halftime show are nicer in the large frame. But that screws the people watching on their phone.
Of course in the small frame, if you have the larger screen you can click to youtube and make it fullscreen. But some people are blocked from youtube or don't trust linking out, so as a courtesy, I post both frames unless it's something where I don't feel screen size matters.
However, boobs should always be viewed on the largest screen possible.
Have you asked TapaTalk why they don't support viewing widescreen videos?
Because phone screens aren't big enough, letterboxing would be what you have now.

Good question. There are telephone poles or something off to the side, so that gets him in the vicinity, and I also noticed footprints or maybe a snowmobile track in front of him that he might have been following. Also, he backs up a bit every now and then, and maybe that gives him a view of the road surface. Although it looks like it's the grader behind him that's actually scraping down to the blacktop. So I really don't know.
Very cool video though.
that will probably help the screen BigV is talking about. It gets gunked up with old food particles and grease and stuff.
The screen I'm talking about can't be helped with anything. It's the fault of grit and sand in the city water.
So, been thinking about your video...
An obstructed inlet screen, that will definitely reduce the flow. But, at what point in the cycle? Your (anyone's) dishwasher gets a volume of water, then recirculates it, soapy water definitely, but I can't imagine the spray from even the straight rinse cycle is using only the water pressure from the house.
You may well have an inlet screen that needs cleaning, but that low pressure jet... It seems like there are additional restrictions. You said that you have lots more footage. What does the spray pattern / pressure look like in the middle of the wash cycle? When the inlet screen is not a factor.
The inlet valve on the GE dishwasher has a screen before it on the water supply side. A timer opens the valve for 90 seconds to allow 90 seconds worth of water into the dishwasher. A couple gallons. There is a float switch that shuts the inlet valve before 90 seconds if too much water gets in, but there is no device to prevent too little water from getting in. GE tells you in the guts of the owner's manual that if you have low water pressure, you should purchase an optional high capacity valve (so more water will come in during the 90 seconds.)
Once that water is in the dishwasher, the dishwasher recirculates it for the duration of the cycle. After the cycle, a discharge pump pumps the water out, and if a new cycle is starting, the inlet valve opens up again to let new water in.
During recirculation, the water is strained through a grate, a grinding blade, and then a screen before entering the recirculation pump to keep big chunks of food from clogging the pump. [Edit: these parts can get coated with grease and slime and food particles over time, and cloddfobble's cleaner, as well as manually removing the grate and washing it every couple years is probably a good idea. There are actually a couple grates you can clean in my DW.]
In my dishwasher, if I am correct, the inlet valve screen is blocked with 15 years worth of sand and sediment and not enough fresh water is entering the dishwasher during those 90 seconds at the beginning of the cycle. The pump is starved of water and is blowing air at times. The lack of water and water power results in dirty dishes.
I'll have a chance this weekend to dig into the valve to see if I'm correct. The new part arrived yesterday and below is a picture of the screen on a brand new clean valve. It's actually a big screen because it's very concave by about an inch. More like a screen basket than a screen.

And this is the overview of the part.
That whole fat plastic area behind the brass fitting is full of screen. It's a big screen, and I think GE knows it's going to get clogged eventually, so they make it as big as possible in the part.

And here is the youtube video of it working. OMG, what a difference. You can see the water levelin the bottom of the DW is much higher and the spray is much more powerful.

I've fallen off "Lucifer", as with most TV shows. I missed that particular episode, too.
Lucifer almost lost me around eps 4/5, but I stuck with it and am really glad I did. The second half of the series was much stronger.I'd say from ep6 onwards.

Yes. You can buy cartridges with varying degrees of filtration. Easy to change (when you remember)

Hmm, I wonder if watching that video is what made all his other videos pop up in my suggested Youtube videos.
Every once in a while, I find myself going through my YouTube history trying to figure out what combination of videos I have watched that is causing the unwanted suggestions I am getting, and then deleting those videos from my history.
A week or so ago, there was that video of the parking lot mishap where the truck driver hit the adjacent truck as he was pulling out of his spot. That led to some other fail video I watched, and before I knew it, there were all sorts of horrific death and mayhem videos being offered up to me. I'm not so interested in snuff films. Thanks anyway, Google. So I had to go back and start deleting viewed video history. Same thing with some rare color WW2 footage I watched not so long ago.
It's fun to watch mishaps where nobody is getting killed. I was watching a fail video of trees being cut down. Pretty funny watching all these trees coming down on houses or parked trucks, but as the video continued, they started getting to the widow makers. No, I don't want to see a tree landing on someone. Even an idiot who did it to themselves. Delete.

US Army WTF! sent an email stating they had received the grant for a US tour.
Based on searching the grant system at apps.nea.gov/grantsearch/, I believe that between 2004 and 2015, six US-based arts organizations were given NEA grants on the order of $10-20,000, for events and programs that included the Chouinard company, typically as one of several dance troupes. I welcome corrections from your source.
Well, egg on my face. I took their message on face value. Could they possibly be referencing an upcoming tour?
No, I just looked at all the grants for Dance from 2015 to 2017, and they don't give out that much money. Most grants are $10,000. Biggest grant was $100,000, for an opera re-staging.
They only gave Martha Graham $80,000 - so a buncha frogs ain't gitten our tax money I assure you
Well, I admit I was wrong and need to fact check their emails
