Saturday Overnight Open Thread (10/26/19)
An Engineer dies and goes to Hell. Dissatisfied with the level of comfort, he starts designing and building improvements. After a while, Hell has air conditioning, flush toilets and escalators. The engineer is a pretty popular guy. One day God calls and asks Satan, "So, how's it going down there?" Satan says, "Hey things are going great! We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next." God is horrified. "What? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake - he should never have gone down there! You know all engineers go to Heaven. Send him up here! " Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff. I'm keeping him." God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue!” "Yeah, right," Satan laughs, "and where are you going to get a lawyer?"
The ONT Is Always Looking Out For YouTM
Don't do this..............
Ingenious? Or destructive?
A rock in West Omaha is catching everyone’s attention for its ability to wreck cars. That’s right, this is not a Hollywood movie pitch, I’m talking about a rock, not The Rock. Someone put it in place to stop drivers from cutting the corner, but some of them still do it. And get owned. Since the rock is more or less shaped like a ramp, if a car hits it with just a little bit of force, it gets stuck right on top of it. Locals have been documenting these incidents and they even created a Facebook group to share them. It might not be one of the popular ones (yet), but it sure is amusing.
Well this didn't work out too well. But, he did die doing something he enjoyed, so there is that.
The worst nightmare of any hunter checking on a kill occurred in Arkansas.
Authorities and wildlife officials with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission have reported the death of 66-year-old Thomas Alexander, who shot a buck near Yellville with a muzzleloader. "I've worked for the Game and Fish Commission for 20 years, and it's one of the stranger things that's happened," said Keith Stephens, the Chief of Communications with the agency, according to KY3.com. When the Arkansas hunter approached the deer he just shot, it apparently attacked, leaving puncture wounds on his body.
Damn, I'm not as remote as I once thought.
Nothing surprises me anymore. However, I did raise an eyebrow at this one. Trial by Kyle.
A furious mum who discovered her daughter had broken her bed having sex is demanding she pays her £1,600 for a new one. Nicole has been at loggerheads with daughter Rhiannon ever since her night of "intense passion" which saw her and an unnamed lover snap the bed frame and break several wooden slats.
Rhiannon claims she cannot afford to pay her mum for a replacement, but Nicole has branded her excuse “bulls**t!”. Such is the bubbling tension and bad blood between them, the pair can barely speak two words to each other. So to settle the matter once and for all, Nicole dragged Rhiannon on an Australian TV court show called Trial By Kyle - similar to Judge Rinder in the UK.
"Auto-Brewery Syndrome", drunk without drinking?
After years of inexplicably getting drunk without drinking alcohol, having mood swings and bouts of aggression, landing a DWI charge on the way to work one morning, and suffering a head injury in a drunken fall, an otherwise healthy 46-year-old North Carolina man finally got confirmation of having alcohol-fermenting yeasts overrunning his innards, getting him sloshed any time he ate carbohydrate-laden meals. Through the years, medical professionals and police officers refused to believe he hadn’t been drinking. They assumed the man was lying to hide an alcohol problem. Meanwhile, he went to an untold number of psychiatrists, internists, neurologists, and gastroenterologists searching for answers. Those answers only came after he sought help from a support group online and then contacted a group of researchers at Richmond University Medical Center in Staten Island, New York. By then, it was September of 2017—more than seven years after his saga began. The New York researchers finally confirmed that he had a rarely diagnosed condition called “auto-brewery syndrome.”

OCTOBER 22--The Alabama woman who was recorded grinding her rear end into the crotch of a cop attempting to handcuff her early Sunday is facing a pair of criminal charges, according to court records. April Teale, 24, was arrested by police on misdemeanor disorderly conduct and harassment charges. The 2018 University of Alabama graduate was collared outside a Waffle House in downtown Tuscaloosa, just blocks from Bryant-Denny Stadium, where, earlier that evening, the Crimson Tide football team defeated the University of Tennessee. As seen in a brief video recording that has gone viral, Teale was pinned up against a Waffle House window as a cop sought to handcuff her. Teale took the opportunity to press her buttocks into the officer while breathily declaring, “Oh, yeah, you like that? You like that, yeah?”

Last year I drove from Bangor to Halifax, Nova Scotia one evening. Just miles and miles of trees and hardly any traffic. Was in a hurry and was afraid I'd hit a moose, but most sections of the road had high fences on either side -- I'm guessing for that very reason.

My parents passed away some years ago now, but I was planning a visit back to my old hometown. One person I thought I'd look up was a friend of my mother's, who had also worked at the school I went to. I knew this person was in assisted living but I figured a visit would be nice.
But when I tried to set it up I learned that the person I'd intended to visit is in intensive care after a serious accident.
The moral of this story is: don't wait. Reconnect with that old friend NOW. Call up your relatives and say hi NOW. Send a letter to your favorite old teacher NOW. Who knows what can happen?

Don't know if it brings any comfort, but I'm currently reading through Dennis Prager's commentary on Genesis -- it really is stunning how much wisdom is contained in The Torah, and I regret I'd never really been taught that. [They should have called it "The Book of Wisdom."]
Anyway, one of the major themes Prager observes is that EVERY family discussed in Genesis is dysfunctional. That is, it is really the norm.
One other thing I've discovered after getting heavily into genealogical research the past three years is how dysfunctional the childhoods were of both of my parents and their parents ... crazy stuff, like children witnessing a murder/suicide of their father/mother then sent to an orphanage where they were abused by priests and nuns, and fathers cuckolded raising their non-biological children in resentment, etc.
And lots of alcoholism ...

It wasn't Wine Moms who elected Newsom, it was everybody who lives within 50 miles of the coast. All the Wine Moms in the State could've voted against him and he still would've won by a large margin.
Regardless, the State's been broken beyond any hope of repair for years now.

One other thing I've discovered after getting heavily into genealogical research the past three years is how dysfunctional the childhoods were of both of my parents and their parents ... crazy stuff, like children witnessing a murder/suicide of their father/mother then sent to an orphanage where they were abused by priests and nuns, and fathers cuckolded raising their non-biological children in resentment, etc.
And lots of alcoholism ...

If you look at a road map of Aroostook County, you'll see (or at least, used to) lots of dotted line trails identified as forest roads. The timber companies would let you go camping up in there, but you had to register, possibly pay a small fee, and tell them where you were going. Probably had restrictions on what you could and couldn't do on their land.

I have just come from a dinner with the former US attorney from the Eastern District (NY) and an actual acquaintance of Andy McCarthy of the Southern District (NY) and NR. The discussion obviously went to recent events revolving around Flynn and Durham - and Andy's rather limp discussion on Neil Cavuto' program today (where is Neil, by the way?).
My friend would like to reiterated that:
1. Investigations are done by Local LE or the FBI case officers - NOT, I repeat not, by DOJ prosecutors - they get case officers assigned to them and they use them to gather evidence as needed - these DOJ lawyers build "cases" to prosecute - especially if they are criminal US attorney's like Durham. They're only purpose for being at the DOJ? To bring criminal cases that go to trial. Otherwise, they just recommend dropping them.
2. Rarely, if ever, do DOJ prosecutors meet up with an attorney of Sydney Powell's (Flynn's lawyer) caliber. The usual defendant's lawyer, even in a high profile case, is from a typical big DC or NY firm (Cleary Gottlieb, Arnold Porter, Cravath/Swain/Moore, or Fried Frank) where, in court, they have little experience or they figure they'll lose. So they settle. The DOJ's experience is to feast on these lawyers. Sydney Powell is different.
3. Despite what Andy says on TV, it is known among AUSA that you try to get targets to plead on the best case the target thinks you have, or, barring that, you get him to plead on the best case you actually have...but you may have neither that's worth a damn. The point being, if he violates your plead agreement, you had better be able to go to court and convict the target on the crimes you told the court were part of the plea. Not some other charge...judges will not be amused.
4. If you lose the case or its dismissed altogether based upon prosecutorial misconduct, it doesn't really matter what the plea agreement on file was - you will never return to this target or anything tangential to it - not fucking ever!
5. Given the quality of the defendant's attorney (Powell) and the info that has been fed her, its a near certainty that this is not a "high risk" play as McCarthy related on Cavuto's show today, but a quality play that puts the US attorney and the DOJ in a non-winnable corner - she wouldn't have proceeded if she wasn't certain or near certain of the outcome - she's not some partner at Baker McKenzie - she would play this to win.
7. My Friend is not certain how the judge (Jackson) will call it, these guys can be typically disposed to the DOJ lawyers, they know them and might be forgiving, but this judge has a reputation as being hard nosed with prosecution for these Brady violations.

So others answered all the Linux & WINE questions back in the last thread, so I will just add an encomium for Linux Mint - every computer at Chateau D'Eez is Linux Mint except the Win10 atrocity Mrs Eez has for all her antique Adobe graphics / publishing programs, and the local server running Ubuntu Linux.
Currently setting up an old laptop as a testbed to run her Adobe stuff under WINE or in a Win7 VM so we can lose that thing.
That remoteness map is fun, but lacks ... what ... granularity ?
There are a couple of Maidenhead Grid Squares in CONUS that are almost inaccessible to ham radio operators who collect such things. One on the CA coast, one on the mud flats of the Mississippi delta.

Rock story reminds me of, lemmee see, aahhh, somewhere in the far west chicago 'burbs a 24 hour gas station on (64 ?) with a landscaped median divider; early mornings you might often see some car that saw the open gas station and pulled a hard left ... bottomed out over the divider, all 4 wheels in the air.

So it came out that even though she lives in Louisiana now, she hates fish and seafood, and she suddenly said well, it was from the time when she was about 10 or 11, and her father had been beating both her and her mother more and more frequently, so one day her mother took her and they just left. No money, no place to go, so they found some homeless people camping in the woods near a beach, and the two of them lived under a tarp in those woods all summer. And they were always scared to leave for fear her father would find them and REALLY beat the hell out of them. So, she hates fish because for that entire summer, half cooked fish that they could scrounge up there near the beach was all the two of them could get to eat.
and I thought ok, now that was a tough childhood.

One other thing about running Windows in a VM. Licensing. Unless you a retail license, which you then 'transfer" to the VM, you can't activate it.
There are ways around that for Windows 7 and earlier. I wouldn't know anything about that, *cough*daz loader*cough*.
With later versions, they locked down the activation enough that I don't think anyone has found a clean way around it. But Win 10 is fully functional, save for "personalization".
But the above *cough* will get Windows 7 activated fine under a VM.
It would be best to start playing around with it now, get Virtualbox and create the VM. You'll have tons and tons of updates, and Win 7 End of support is Jan 2020 -- after that no more updates, and who knows how long the Windows Update site will continue to work for it after MS pulls the plug.

It's probably more understandable if you've been sued. There's someone strutting around in front of you casting your every action in the worst possible light. Intellectually you know this person is a hired gun. Hell, you brought one of your own. But your gut reaction is to think "Who does this asshole think he is?"

Came back in once after motorcycling solo way out into eastern Quebec,
and the customs shack was a little one-room thing with a lonely woman
officer inside.
Noticed the cool one-way gates periodically along those high moose
fences way up the road banks. Like the chinese finger-pull puzzle, the
moose can exit, but can neither back out after starting, or enter from
the wild.

Was unaware of those one-way gates -- found some interesting stories about how they work and the fatal damage hitting a moose can do to folks and their vehicles. Scary ...

Since Shakespeare penned the line "First let's kill all the lawyers" in the 16th century it would seem to have been a popular and enduring sentiment for some time.

I didn't say anything about ALW. As for Bernstein, I'm also not saying anything others have also said. I for one like his Mahler, Berlioz and Haydn. His CBS recording of the William Schuman 3rd Symphony is historic. His Falstaff is my favorite. We owe him a debt for his services to American music.
But, really, outside of West Side Story, the Candide overture and, maybe the Chichester Psalms, what of his music really will endure? He complained he didn't want to go down in history as the composer of WSS. Someone nearby muttered, "Better that than 'A Quiet Place'."
I isten to his CBS recordings and hear energy but poor ensemble. The later DG recordings are better played but the effects are so exaggerated as to make them unlistenable to me (Elgar's Enigma Variations, Tchaikovsky's Pathetique Symphony).
I'd be the first to say Bernstein was a man of great talents. But I just don't buy into the hype around him. OK?

a close family member has no assets and little income. Some mixup with insurance led to a $6,000 bill from a hospital for an emergency room visit. She asked me what to do and I advised "pitch the bill in the trash and tell them LOLGFY. What are they gonna do about it?" It's Texas, no garnishment, unsecured debtors are up shit creek.
on the down side, that's why insurance premiums are so high for the people with assets who CAN pay. I would feel some moral qualm about advising someone to do that, but she can't pay, and I sure as hell won't - it's not my bill.

There was a rock story in San Francisco. The heights opposite Cliff House were once the Sutro mansion (the Sutro baths are not far away, but around the corner). The estate became a public park, and for a long time was a classy place, with a sculpture garden. Somewhere in there (my aunt thought it was WPA era), some chicken-wire-and masonry imitation boulders were added, to create some sort of "Portals of The Past" scene. They lasted an awfully long time, but the park got abused, and by the 1970's they were an eyesore and a hazard, and so the city proposed removing them.
And that's when you learn something about San Francisco. There was born a massive "Save Our Fake Rocks" movement, with fund-raisers, many protests, posters. I thought the bumper stickers must be a joke, until I made the mistake of asking about it. The movement managed to delay the improvement for several seasons. Since the rocks had not been built to last in the first place, and the park was a crime haven that was virtually abandoned by then, actually saving them was out of the question. But if you propose doing something in SF, someone will write a song against it.
There are those who think that San Francisco has gone to hell all at once just recently. This is just not fair.

I was saddened but not completely surprised that the President has decided to take a victory lap while dancing on the grave of one of our worst enemies.
While we can be thankful that al-Baghdadi will no longer wreak havoc in the Middle East, it is unseemly to boast and gloat as though one just bagged the big stuffed animal at the Utah State Fair.
I join many collegues on both sides of the political aisle in imploring the President to cancel tomorrow morning's planned announcement and have asked the media not to give coverage to this vulgar display.

Millions of us middlebrows spent Sunday afternoons with Lenny's Music App class. I've seen some I liked. But more I didn't.
I think he saved Mahler from obscurity just because Mahler was a conductor of the New York Philharmonic, dammit, and so was Lenny. But I thank him for that. And the film score for On The Waterfront is almost good enough that you'd mistake it for his more talented cousin Elmer.
In a country whose composers are known for being pretty damn embarrassing in their personal lives, Lenny pretty near takes the cake. We let those guys go on with their bit of fun, and that led to a whole generation of pine-tar-torch knuckle-buggers who believe in their heart of

Bruno Walter and Willem Mengelberg (who were also NYP conductors) would take issue with Mahler being obscure before Lenny! revived him. One of Bernstein's myths.

A Catholic priest, a rabbi, and a Baptist preacher are out fishing.
"You know," said the priest, "we spend our days listening to the troubles of other people. Maybe since we're out here all alone, we should listen to each other's troubles."
The others agree that this would be a fine idea.
The priest starts. "I'm a compulsive gambler. I once lost all the money for the new roof on the church. Fortunately I won it all back again, but I know that sooner or later I'm doomed."
The rabbi says "I'm a compulsive womanizer. I've slept with at least 50% of the women in my congregation, old, young, pretty, ugly, it doesn't matter."
The preacher says "I'm a compulsive gossip, and I cannot WAIT to get back to shore."

A very significant part of my time at work is dedicated to compliance with federal regulations, and a lot of compliance people are either lawyers, or else frustrated lawyers who missed their calling. Lawyers and engineers can often get along very well, which sometimes surprises people. Engineers also know all the engineer tricks to watch for, and they're glaringly obvious when lawyers try them, because use different means to approach the same goal: given this set of rules and constraints, exactly what can I get away with?

arguing the plain obvious language in law doesn't actually mean exactly
what it says.--
Exactly what it says, eh?
If the original occupants .... who took
possession of the dwelling ... pursuant to the rental agreement with the
owner no longer permanently reside there, an owner may increase the rent by any
amount allowed by this section to a lawful sublessee ... who did not
reside at the dwelling ... prior to January 1, 1996.
(CA Civil Code section 1954.53(d)(2)
Question: does the term "lawful sublessee" mean a person who is now a lawful sublessee and resided at the dwelling before 1996 but not as a sublessee (say, a minor child) or does "lawful sublessee" mean the condition/description of lawful sublessee must have existed before 1996?
Yeah, I'm one of those lawyers, sort of. I read the legislative history of the law and figure out what they were trying to accomplish and then if the plain language doesn't sync up with the legislative history, try to figure out where the rub is. English is not the most precise language, sometimes legislators don't know the difference between a predicate nominative and a relative restrictive clause following a subordinating conjunction, and sometimes the plain language makes no damn sense.

And one of the eleven horror stories had the bad guy (Leonard Lake) being kicked out of the "Marine Corpse". To be fair, it seems like some of those stories were machine-translated, or written by non-English speakers.

Conversely, play back the tracks of Airplane from the same songs, without Grace Slick's vocals.
Minimalist, powerful, evocative. Yet empty without her vocals.
Give any other female vocalist that same exact band backing track, and ask her to sing the lead.
From then, or now.
None compares.
Simple as that.

Contact the facility directly, and ask them if they have any knowledge of the current bill. It would help immensely to have a receipted copy of the original bill in hand. If they try to claim the new bill is legitimate, ask them how the hell it can take a year for them to determine that it was owed.

Speaking of scammers, my friend has encountered a new one. She's getting divorced and re-fi'd her house to pay off Shithead and get him off the deed. All fees/taxes have been paid and all the paperwork filed. She's now received two different mailings, one from CA and one from FL (she's in NY), claiming for around $100 she will receive her notarized copy of the deed, which she obviously already has. It seems as if scammers are going through public records on house sales and sending out these letters for small amounts because, as anyone knows when you buy a house, one just keeps writing check after check for this and that. If one doesn't look closely at the letters, one might think, 'Oh great, more fees' and just write another check.

Don't doubt you a bit, there. Read a lot of her interviews from that era.

She was GRACE Slick. Not Graceful Slick.
The critics failed to realize the distinction between the concepts.

In order that the networks that light up with such an event provide new targets or better info on existing ones.
Unlike what was done with Osamafest under the idiot administration.
Oh well.
As long as no special operators decide to trash their service's long traditions and become celebrities-for-a-day, some improvement, I guess.

Looks like sliced apples to me. The only other fruit that would look close to that is sliced pears but who in their right mind wants a pear pie?

Oh well, we have another apparent mass shooting.
>>Police and other emergency services in Texas are responding to reports of a mass shooting at a venue in Greenville, northeast of Dallas, local officials and witnesses say. Only few details were immediately available.
Caveats, as usual.

Trudeau would fit right in here in California. The knucklehead we have running the state is cut from the same phony, virtue signalling cloth.

"You know," said the priest, "we spend our days listening to the troubles of other people. Maybe since we're out here all alone, we should listen to each other's troubles."
The others agree that this would be a fine idea.
The priest starts. "I'm a compulsive gambler. I once lost all the money for the new roof on the church. Fortunately I won it all back again, but I know that sooner or later I'm doomed."
The rabbi says "I'm a compulsive womanizer. I've slept with at least 50% of the women in my congregation, old, young, pretty, ugly, it doesn't matter."
The preacher says "I'm a compulsive gossip, and I cannot WAIT to get back to shore."
