Most computer applications nowadays can read FEN, so those of you who may want to study the position, you can copy the line of FEN and paste into your chess app and it should automatically recreate the position on its display board. Or, Windows users can just "triple click" on it and the entire line will be highlighted so you can copy and paste it into your chess app. ___________ So that about wraps it up for this week.

Willowed from the Pet Thread:
Two years back I found a shorthaired black stray cat in my parking lot at home. He was sick -- he looked like he had the superflu. I managed to get him into a carrier and brought him as a "found" animal to the SPCA. They tried heroically to bring him back to health, but he was FeLV positive and very weak, and after 5 weeks they had to put him to sleep. They'd asked me to name him, and so I said "Paladin": He wore black, and was a knight without armor in a savage land. At least I gave him 5 weeks of comfortable life, regular meals, and not having to dodge cars or coyotes. If there is a credit register in the Hereafter, St.Peter, please make a note of this to counterbalance some other stupid things I've done. . . .

The lady in the first dress forgot to wear her corset. It kills the historic look of the dress.
For most women, corsets were worn not to make the waist a lot smaller necessarily but to change the shape of the waist. Instead of being an oval shape (seen in cross section from above) which makes the waist look wider, the corseted waist is a round shape which makes the waist look narrower. It was a very flattering look that even portly women could achieve with the right underpinnings. BTW I look forward to seeing the dresses every week. Thank you!

Roberts' swing vote to uphold disparate treatment of churches in the CA Virus Shutdown was craven. I put it to Roberts' foolish attempt to make SCOTUS look like it's above politics, the Constitution be damned.
Roberts' vote looks worse still, now that the Virus Shutdown has been exposed as bureaucratic totalitarian overkill as the distancing rules get ignored for mass protests, but enforced for masses. Despite SCOTUS decorum, I picture frat boy justice Kavanaugh muttering *blowjob* a la Animal House whilst looking directly at Dean Wormer Roberts at SCOTUS weekly meetings.

So I just got back from watching the Michael Park documentary, "In his own words" on Clarence Thomas. It was very good. My son went with me. It was nice of my friend to tape it because she's a liberal-not leftist-but I don't think that she's an admirer of Clarence Thomas.
Joe Biden was a smirking jerk even back then. Kieran asked me if someone put Anita Hill up to lying about Thomas. I said I'm sure of it, but I don't know what she got out of it. Interesting how they tried to same approach with Kavanaugh. Posted by: FenelonSpoke at June 06, 2020 05:38 PM (+eVzC) 53

Posted by: thathalfrican - Clark Kent with the glasses off at June 06, 2020 05:47 PM (IYHxL) Her logic, based on her rhetorically militant view of the Left in modern history, is that Trump has forsaken his posture of non-negotiable anti-establishment patriotism when it came to seditious threats to the Constitution (posited over and over in his campaign) with a Kushner-influenced imperative to unifying America through compromise and deal-making (which she ascribes to the same fatal delusions long held by the GOPe). Malkin is an uncompromising warrior, and believes Trump won because he presented himself as one too. She's disappointed in his performance in this crucial moment.

OK... I won't dispute that the reverse of the St. Gaudens Double Eagle is the most beautiful American coin design. But I'm going against informed opinion and saying that the obverse of the Walking Liberty Half Dollar by his protege Weinman is better. Also, while St. Gaudens' Liberty is a dignified lady, Weinman lets you know she can be a dirty girl, too. I'll also say, if I take their works on balance (Double Eagle and Indian Head Eagle vs the WL Half and the Mercury Dime), I think Weinman was the more talented of the two at coin design.

So King Lockdown, Gov. Charlie Baker (RINO-MA) has announced "Phase 2" of his 4-phase "re-opening Massachusetts" plan, started 3-weeks ago.
Among the highlights of this ludicrously timid plan, day care centers can re-open, but day-program services for adults must wait at least another 3-weeks for "Phase 3". The net for me is that my son (22-year old autistic adult living in a group home) is at least 3-weeks away from getting back to his day program (which he enjoyed) - and I'm at least 3-weeks away from being able to see him again in person. And yet, Charlie Lockdown is completely insulated because he's a leftist NeverTrump "Republican" and the Massachusetts legislature is among the more corrupt, useless, and gutless legislative bodies in the country. I am so fucking furious at this point that I'm gonna start breaking shit if I can't get my heart rate down soon.

I don't know about the alienating Hispanics thing. BLM is basically fuck white people. And while not all Hispanics feel that way, enough do that this will not make then less receptive to the Dem message.
Remember the Dems have built a coalition of disparate groups whose goal is to take shit from those who have and give it to them, and stoke racial grievances. As long as Dems keep promising amnesty, free this and free that to Hispanics, they'll happily vote Dem regardless of what they do for BLM. Posted by: Not Amused at June 06, 2020 06:15 PM (AJ2LA) 189

In 2016, election coverage was 24/7 from January through November.
But now? It's like it's not happening. The gaslighters are trying to pretend in some ways that there is no election because they don't want people to realize that everything they see and hear is in fact targeted election propaganda. In some ways I think they don't want to he caught with millions of hours all their bullshit predictions and polling when Trump wins again. But I think it's more that they know it didn't work last time so they're going with a different angle - bad news and CHAOS all the time. Posted by: ... at June 06, 2020 06:18 PM (uEbPt) 194

Just when the stats started to look like we were done they decided to add presumed cases and deaths causing a huge spike in the graphs. This is the second time they have done this. The first was supposedly an "error" but they put the update in one days stats causing a huge spike.

The brand new OP the Marxist left is as follows:
- taking a picture from Facebook of their target (The Right and Whites), - downloading it, - using Snapchat to add something racist (or whatever ism), - uploading the picture to reddit or Twitter or some other platform the person is then destroyed for life based on a lie.

The CEO of JPMorgan Chase was photographed taking a knee in front of a large bank vault on Friday, sparking speculation that he was expressing support for anti-racism protests that have spread across the United States. His bank declined to confirm whether there was a deeper meaning behind the photograph, but Dimon had previously voiced sympathy for the demonstrations, stating that Chase was "committed to fighting against racism and discrimination wherever and however it exists." Gee, it would be terrible if Chase Banks got hit and hit bad Posted by: TheQuietMan at June 06, 2020 06:47 PM (EZlRU) 273

NY didn't crush any curves, doubtful they affected any curves. If any lives were "saved", it's impossible to say, since the entire purpose of "curve flattening" was the *timing* of acute cases, not reducing the total number thru the course of the epidemic - only "saved" lives would have been from those directly attributable to no access to acute care. No instances known. And NYC was the only place that even came close to maxing out, most places delivered body blows to hospitals and medicine generally by emptying them and watching them sit unused.

"Skyrocketing" cases of C-19 aren't of any consequence, if the "protesters" aren't elderly and/or medically compromised. The IFR is almost surely vastly over-estimated at twice influenza (0.10 vs 0.26), and the more confirmed cases, the clearer that will be.

I've seen no confirmation, but he was clearly doing something hinky down around the cop's belt area.

**** If you look closely at the video, the old guy walks toward a cop and passes what looks like a cell phone over and along the cop's arm, where I *think* his radio is attached. So he may have been trying to capture the frequency the police were using to communicate. I also think the guy's age led directly to his falling backward. It's very common for geezers (I am one) to have poor balance. In any case what happened doesn't rise to a firing offense. Posted by: Flea Bailey at June 06, 2020 07:50 PM (AD32I) 491

I speculate that the third cop saw that the guy was trying to electonically scan the first two cops and decided that was a bad thing to do.

Very late to HQ for me. I went to bed late, but after reading Krak's 6am post. I bitched, but it was the beer talking. Woke up late, did a few hours of basic chores, and read JJ's response from NYC, which is unfortunately close to mine, living in a suburb south of Seattle. I get both perspectives. As an actual Seattleite, born in the city in the 50's, I have seen this area go from a very blue collar area, albeit fiercely independent, to a Blue-Hive buzzing center in the populous area of WA. WA state has such an abundance of incredible geography, more than a single soul could ever experience in a single lifetime. I'm not moving. I saw JJ quote "someone from Seattle say they were born here and they are not leaving". Hey! JJ is talking about ME! I've gone on some giant rants about not leaving! Oh, wait. Not me, it's nurse rached, I realized in a few seconds. But that's ok, she is the unofficial CEO of the PacNW Morons. Oregon Muse is our unofficial Chairman of the Board. I like our leaders. Oh yeah, leaders. Real leaders are elected. And the left coast states are all blue now, with mostly red in the countrysides. But look under the covers, peel back a couple of layers of onion, and what you will find is a corrupt voting system that keeps them in place. The voting system has been corrupted. Motor Voter states are Blue states for a reason. I saw it with my own eyes when I renewed my driver's license a few years ago. Everyone who gets a new driver's license gets a card to fill out, check a single box saying they are able to vote, and *BOOM!* you're registered to vote. Even the Latino guys in their '40's that can't speak a single word of English, and need their daughter to translate with the clerk. It's THAT easy. Another non-citizen added to the voting rolls. And this corruption has been going on since the early to mid 90's. At first, the non-citizens were slow to do it, fearing to be deported. But after a full generation of NOBODY being deported, countless thousands are now stepping right up and stealing citizen rights. And the Blues want this, it is how they have gained power. More proof of this was in Colorado in 2016. Lots of non-citizens have transitioned from California and south of the border. A few days after Trump won, there were something like 4,000 registered, seasoned (previously voted in an election) who DE-REGISTERED! That has never happened before. Anywhere. Why? Because on a few of Trump's rants in the campaign, he said he would root them out of the rolls, and my speculation is that they were not citizens and did not want to be deported. They may not be citizens and want a say it what is going on (they probably have good jobs, families, and pay lots of taxes, too) and since no government official is stopping their friends who have been voting for years, they have jumped on this train, too. How to fix this? Well, the state election boards are so totally corrupt, or ignore this completely, like the Repub Secretary of State in WA. She is compliant to the corruption, even though she swears she is pure as a newborn baby. In other words, there is no force to stop the voter roll corruption. So, a Federal law must be passed that says voter rolls are so corrupt that they need to be thrown out, and if your state wants to count for FEDERAL elections, you must certify each voter is indeed a US citizen. This is actually easier than you would think. Anyone born after WWII is at least 75. Every birth is registered, and that data is online. Every naturalized citizen was made one by a federal court action, and there is a docket number for that, too. If someone is 91, and somehow their birth certificate wasn't registered, either spend some extra resources to find it, or heck, there are so few people over 75 in our population today, just give them a pass. Until YOUR state has done this, none of your votes will count in the Presidential race. I would add Reps and Senate positions, but President directly affects everyone. The Left would scream. I don't care. The alternative for both left and right is much worse. And watch the Left coast states turn beet red overnight. I'm sure by now I have willowed myself.

Judit's sisters are also world class chess players.
Their father is a lunatic who wrote a book "How to Raise Perfect Children". The first time I met Judit, her father insisted on a linguistic challenge. I held my own until Esperanto. Judit spoke and I did not. Posted by: Miklos, former chess tournament organizer at June 06, 2020 08:06 PM (QzkSJ) 534

From CT:
"charged with second degree assault after they shoved a 75-year-old peace activist to the ground Thursday causing him to crack his head open on the sidewalk, " More correctly, procedure would be to grab him, turn him around, cuff him, and arrest him. And seize the devices as evidence. What they did is like the same dumb crap that Chauvin did. Posted by: Braenyard at June 06, 2020 08:16 PM (Fk2WS) 539

Turns out the 75-year old "peace activist" was inciting violence. He was hand-scanning the police to wiretap or even jam their communications. The info would be passed on to his ANTIFA buddies to attack police. That old son of a bitch is a domestic terrorist, not a victim. Fuck him.

Not be left out, the sad plummeting husk of the UK today featured vandalism of the Churchill monument (D-Day), and a woman cop seriously injured when idiots threw bricks at her horse, spooking it, resulting in her bashing her head into a traffic light.

Oh - monument to Abe Lincoln in London also vandalized.
Nice. I've been hoping against hope some kook would chisel out the MLK monument near the Capitol - it would be an entirely appropriate gesture for these people who completely reject every element of MLK's philosophy (the "protesters"). Posted by: rhomboid at June 06, 2020 08:40 PM (El6T/) 544

BLM "leader" today on live TV threatened to burn down the Diamond District (= joooos) unless idiot governor and idiot mayor of NY/NYC do something they're demanding.

And continuing my roll.
For days I've chided the NFL for not being as stupidly racist and so publicly in love with genocidal tyranny (Chinese regime) as the NBA. Of course the NFL unlike the NBA is not really a global "brand". But they've answered my challenge. Denver Broncos announce "If you ain't with us, you against us" - clearly in support of whatever the hell it is the racist airheads in the streets claim to believe they want. Oh - "change". The twitter comments are hilarious, and acid. Posted by: rhomboid at June 06, 2020 08:56 PM (El6T/) 548

Eris, everyone on "right side" twitter is celebrating and mocking this thing with the child mayor of Mpls.
I suppose because most of those people, though far less stupid, ignorant, alien in their values, or racist, like "liberal" dimwits with a public profile, really don't know how to do much except through rhetorical bricks. I am not laughing a bit. Not because maoist Gleichschaltung ("it's global, it's diverse!") will prevail. It won't. But that it has *any* presence, traction, at all in the US, anywhere, is sickening. Many will harp on the electoral backlash that *seems* likely. Thing one. Obama was nominated and actually elected twice - there IS no bottom on American political degradation, not any more. Thing two. Even in the likely event Trump is re-elected, so what: these people these hollow and collapsed institutions, these forgotten/rejected/slandered civic values and traditions are clearly just gone for an enormous part of the country. There will be drinking tonight! Posted by: rhomboid at June 06, 2020 09:21 PM (El6T/) 552
