It's actually readable by humans. 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.

Since it's an open thread. Don't watch tv. Went to our favorite Mexican restaurant yesterday where every table has a tv in view. Hadn't been there in about 2 weeks. I swear ESPN was showing a continuation of the same show I saw 2 weeks previously. Do they cover anything else besides Colin Kapernik? And the same talking point that LeBron James says the NFL owns Kapernik an apology. Who made Mr. James the arbiter of who owes an apology to anyone.

Yes, I know she is only 38, but too many women nowadays look about 10-15 years older than they actually are, because they've spent the previous 20+ years caking on the natural beauty-destroying makeup.

There's an ancient Arthur C. Clarke story in which aliens visit the Earth after our nuclear destruction, and find a film with what they think is a typical Earth native.

Clyde you're right, always a smile, and a very natural and bright one it is. Whichever royal it is that snagged her, I don't keep their names straight, did very well. For a white girl, pretty attractive. Posted by: rhomboid at June 27, 2020 05:37 PM Seconded. And pretty amazing for her to remain that way under all the scrutiny and with all the demands of her royal position. If I remember correctly, she was a commoner before marrying into royalty? From her Wiki: Her husband, Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, is expected to become king of the United Kingdom and 15 other Commonwealth realms, making Catherine a likely future queen consort. Catherine grew up in the village of Chapel Row, part of Bucklebury near Newbury, in the English county of Berkshire. She studied art history in Scotland at the University of St Andrews, where she met William in 2001. I am definitely jealous of Prince William. I am a sucker for brunettes and she is just my type. Had I only been born into royalty... Some guys have all the luck... Posted by: Clyde Shelton at June 27, 2020 05:46 PM (Do5/p) 61
Folks, if Pennsylvania is any indication...the consumer numbers are going to be through the bloody roof next month.

Had something happen earlier that had me upset for awhile. I was in here (kitchen) and daughter was in the living room when suddenly there was a very loud thud against the window in living room. We went out to investigate but didn't see anything. I came back in and let the dog out.. all of sudden daughter is yelling at me to come back out. There was a dead bird, looked like a young hawk laying in the garden. How did we miss it the first time?? The dog was furiously barking at it. Poor little thing. I put on some gloves and put it in a plastic bag. Neck was broken. it must have dive bombed into the window. Doubt it ever even knew what happened.

I had to take my geriatric Splotcy McFatCat to the veterinarian today. He started picking the fur off of his tummy today and when I placed the back of my hand on his tummy to see if he had a fever or hot spot, he made a pain response.
He's maybe 15 at the absolute youngest, possibly as old as 19. We rescued him from living in our crawlspace about five years ago. Poor dude was eating the squirrels and chipmunks I was shooting with my air rifle for grub when I first saw him. We began putting out dry food until he let one of us scritch his ears through a gap in the screen door. Two weeks later we were able to grab him and bring him inside. Hoping this isn't his end. But I'll be damned if I let him suffer in pain. Posted by: BifBewalski Just got Splotchy back from the veterinarian. He has tumors on his liver, the largest of which is pushing on his gallbladder. The veterinarian that makes house calls will be coming tomorrow morning to euthanize my buddy here at home so that it's easier on him. Phuck this sucks.

This thing of borrowing the idiotic and vile Taliban schtick from the cretinous mob and then applying it to "their" things and names and institutions is incredibly dumb.
Stipulating their vile premise that all historical figures must be viewed through a current, extreme, insane lens is I fear a pretty good illustration of the skill and insight of many on the "right". It's a nihilistic, racist, anti-American, anti-western mob. They're not going to be taken aback or care one F about Yale changing its name. But if it happens, congrats, one more bit of American history wiped away by the rampaging mob, with the assist of some of their clueless "opponents". It's like accepting the premise that C19, esp. for young people, is ANYTHING requiring any public policy at all, and then assailing the "protests" on that basis. Genius.

There's really no way to have accurate stats at this point. It's too far gone. A couple of weeks ago, when NY's total was around 20k, one-fourth of that number lacked an actual Covid diagnosis. Recorded as Covid deaths for varying reasons, but not confirmed scientifically. We don't know when it arrived here. Testing has been limited. How do you figure out a reasonably accurate denominator under these conditions? You don't.

There may be reasonably accurate data, some day, though as with almost everything important now, we can't assume the actual institutions lavishly funded and universally assumed to be legit would do it properly, or honestly (yes, it's that bad).
There definitely is a huge fundamental problem with the most raw data on fatalities, due to the coding and multiple cause issues. At worst, you can present analysis from that in multiple forms - similar to a worst/best case scenario presentation, depending on initial assumptions. And using properly evaluated testing data + anti-body data + the ILI models and estimating protocols that have long been used for flu, I think workable #s will eventually emerge.

Ok, Infidel here's what I found out about Melania's dress. It's not the pic OM has. I found the dress but she's wearing a different belt.
First Lady Melania Trump chose a checkered look, a nod to NASCAR’s iconic checkered flags, while attending this year’s Daytona 500 alongside President Trump this weekend. Melania Trump was girlishly black and white in a two-tone ensemble featuring a plunging v-neck flared skirt tea-length dress by Christian Dior with little white frilly bows checked across. Mrs. Trump cinched her waist with a white scalloped leather corset belt by Azzedine Alaïa. The belt retails for $1,370 at Bergdorf Goodman. Loyal Fashion Notes readers will recall that Mrs. Trump wore the same belt in a beige leather shade when she visited the Great Wall of China in 2017. Mrs. Trump paired the Dior dress and Alaïa belt with sporty Saint Laurent black sunglasses and stark white patent leather Christian Louboutin stilettoes — heels you could see from a mile away.

Days before he announced his retirement from regular news coverage, Brinkley made a rare, on-air mistake during evening coverage of the 1996 United States presidential election at a moment when he thought he was on commercial break. One of his colleagues asked him what he thought of the prospects for Bill Clinton's re-election. He called Clinton "a bore" and added, "The next four years will be filled with pretty words and pretty music and a lot of goddamn nonsense!" One of his team pointed out that they were still on the air. Brinkley said, "Really? Well, I'm leaving anyway!" * * Suggests he was not such a lefty loon as "journalists" today.

Hi. I'm Here.
The park today was full of people, parking lots full. Only people i saw wearing masks was this one ridiculous family. They were in the middle of an open field on a blanket. Mom, Dad and two young kids, maybe 8 and 10 years old. Completely masked up even though there was a soul anywhere near them. Do they think it's floating in the air? Imagine making your kids run around with a mask on outside where there isnt anyone around. And, I thought the woman in the green dress looked like a painting.

olddog, good question, but recall that a significant % of those deaths were just advanced in time - many of them would have occurred from other causes during this tax year, due to the age/condition of those dying.
A few weeks back I saw an actuarial approach to the NY/NJ thing that made it pretty clear. The demo of fatalities there is very skewed such that total expected deaths through December 31 may not be much affected. Posted by: rhomboid at June 27, 2020 07:56 PM (El6T/) 434

So, Mayor Jenny suddenly decides that she wants CHOP cleared out, and it just happens.
I wonder if the people of Seattle will realize that all that she was missing before was desire. Posted by: TheJamesMadison, fighting terrorist in Nakatomi Tower at June 27, 2020 07:32 PM (LvTSG) I smell some lawsuits brewing. It can now pretty well be proven that she voluntarily allowed the rioters to burn homes and businesses, assault taxpayers, and cause permanent harm to the citizens she has an obligation to protect. And encouraged the rioters to do all of these things with her words and actions. When as has now been demonstrated, she could have simply taken action and shut them down immediately. Nice job, a-hole. Posted by: naturalfake at June 27, 2020 08:09 PM (ysqzb) 453
Damn
right. I'm watching the movie Memphis Belle.

I got an email from the Y. They are opening up the outdoor pool but you have to make a reservation for a 45 minute time slot. When I tried, they told me no lap swim. I have to wait til 7/6 and make a reservation no more than 48 hours in advance.This is ridiculous.

I'm guessing tonight's Greg Gutfeld show, starting at 7pm Pacific time, is going to be another gem. Gutfeld's Berkeley-influenced, modern reality viewpoint and his disgust for liars and propaganda generates some real content that is also humorous. No wonder why Gutfeld's CABLE show draws more viewers than any of the Big 3 Late night talking heads on broadcast TV. Gutfeld wittingly challenges thought instead of dictating thought, like the Late night 3. And like how America is supposed to be. Perhaps this is why he is succeeding?

Berserker, you may have seen it here before, but I highly recommend "Into the Cold Blue", a documentary about the making of "Memphis Belle". Well, about that, and just generally about the 8th Air Force too. Several film crew members were lost in missions over Germany.
Not just another movie, obviously. Posted by: rhomboid at June 27, 2020 08:16 PM (El6T/) 462

Posted by: rhomboid at June 27, 2020 08:16 PM (El6T/) I think I saw that movie. I used to collect a lot of WWII stuff. I got a good stash of 8th AF items.

Yes, it has merit. Such different times, however. Back then, both political parties were pro-American. Now, only one half of one party believes in America. Not the Dems, not the #Nevers/GOPe. They have mostly moved on from the last 240 years of history. They have both sold out America, and just want to get paid. Except find anyone under 50 who knows who Jack Parr was. That's the challenge. Posted by: LeftCoast Dawg at June 27, 2020 08:24 PM (sy5kK) 465

381 Did you read the lawsuit they CHOP business owners filed? It went out of its way to express allegiance to BLM. So I would guess that not only do they know this, but they will vote for her when she comes up for re-election.
It is almost impossible to overstate the importance of no federal bailouts for these cities. Raise taxes on the municipalities. Or let the businesses eat it. Posted by: Post at June 27, 2020 08:30 PM (BRkq2) 468
