Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Saturday Afternoon Chess thread 08-29-2020WIM Carolina Blanco (VEN) TheJamesMadison will be along later with the movie thread. As always, the chess/dress pr0n thread is an open thread, so there is no such thing as an off-topic comment. Beginner Problem - White To Play (1189) Goal: White can force mate in 2 moves Hint: Limit Black's defense options to one, and only one, move r1b4r/pppk1Npp/5n2/8/2Bp4/Bn6/P4PPP/4R1K1 w - - 0 1 Intermediate Problem - Black To Play (1190) Goal: Black can force mate in 5 moves Hint: Bust up the pawn phalanx with a sac 3r2k1/pB3ppp/1pr5/4n3/4n3/1RP1P3/P4PPP/2B2RK1 b - - 0 1 Advanced Problem - White To Play (1188 ) There are several lines to mate. How many can you find, and what is the longest (forced) line? k2r3r/pR2ppbp/3q4/2N5/3np1b1/4P3/P2B1PPP/2Q1KB1R w K - 0 1 Dress Pr0n For The 'Ettes:

So it's 4 mating lines, the longest of which are 6 moves. Hope to see you all next week! ___________ Note: that cryptic line of letters and numbers you see underneath each board diagram is a representation of the position in what is known as "Forsyth-Edwards Notation", or F.E.N. 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.

For the third evening of the RNC, Melania Trump broke from her military-inspired Alexander McQueen look from the night before, opting for a bright fuchsia silk frock by Jason Wu - a Taiwanese-Canadian designer based in New York City, New York.
The dress features a bateau neckline, concealed pockets and two black velvet waist ties, cinching Mrs. Trump's small frame before billowing out to a full skirt. Mrs. Trump paired the ensemble with black velvet Manolo Blahnik stilettoes. Posted by: olddog in mo, uckfay ancercay at August 29, 2020 05:38 PM (Dhht7) 38

When
I was taking classes at my local community college, I had a Spanish class taught by really nice woman from Venezuela. She avoided talking politics, but readily admitted she had been begging her parents for several years to get the hell out of Venezuela. She knew what was happening. But old people are stubborn. Worked with someone who was from Venezuela. She also had begged her mom to get out. Mom eventually passed away from old age, but then daughter had to go down and and sell off property, close bank accounts, etc. Because daughter had at one time been a citizen of Venezuela, they weren't going to let her leave. Never mind that she had long since become a citizen of the US and renounced her citizenship there, they wanted to keep her. Took a bit of finagling but she finally got out again. Never did hear how much of her mother's estate they "taxed" to agree to let her go. Posted by: Blanco Basura - moronhorde.com lives again at August 29, 2020 05:51 PM (SchxB) 81

Seahawks cancel practice. Pete Carroll demands white Americans finally listen to Blacks https://t.co/HGxNksyqtA?amp=1 Pete Carroll walked in front of a video camera with a Seahawks-logoed background. He took off his mask. "They are crying out," Carroll said. "Black people know the truth. They know exactly what is going on. It's white people that don't know. "It's not that they're not telling us. They've been telling us the stories. We know what's right and what''s wrong. We just have not been open to listen to it. We've been unwilling to accept the real history, and been taught a false history of what happened in this country. We have been basing things on false premises. And it has not been about equality for all. ... "This is a humanity issue that we are dealing with. This is a white-people's issue to get over it and learn what's going on and figure it out the issue to get over. And start loving. Everybody. ... "White people don't know. They don't know enough. And they need to be coached up. They need to be educated about what the heck is going on in this world. "The Black people can't scream any more. They can't march any more. They can't bare their souls any more to what they've lived with for hundreds of years. ... "Can you imagine how long Black people have hung on, with the belief that it's going to be better?" Carroll said. "Racism is out the door. Get rid of it." "I'm out," he said. And he walked off. Posted by: BetaCuck4Life at August 29, 2020 06:02 PM (FBrfY) 109

The TV series focused on the spy heroes, yes, but each episode included an everyday person. 3) Leo G. Carroll's tweedy spymaster here is a direct ancestor to his Mr. Waverly on the show. 4) The tone of both involves real danger but also tongue-in-cheek humor.

I mean really, where does his over the top rant come from, when he coaches black players making insane amounts of money for playing a game? We are looking at the exact same events. We see a wanted felon resisting arrest and getting shot when he tries to grab a weapon. They are seeing some cold blooded execution. WTF?

COVID-19 is spread from person to person and is highly contagious... Um, not anymore. The national infection rate overall is a whopping .017% In addition to being incurable, it is especially dangerous because it can be transmitted asymptomatically - meaning a person may catch it and share it without ever feeling sick. Plenty of people who had it have recovered. Posted by: BackwardsBoy - Enemy of the Deep State Swamp at August 29, 2020 06:28 PM (HaL55) 222

It looks like we are in another Democrat guilt transference operation, all of these police incidents have happened in Democrat controlled states and cities and yet it's all been transferred, seemingly to white society at large and conservatives and Republicans in general.
One of the most insane bits of theater came early in the George Floyd op where the Donk mayor asked how could this have happened, he could have literally turned to the black police commissioner who was onstage right next to him and simply asked him. But nope all of this is by invisible outside Republican forces. More insanity is coming from sports ball as they are making plays to have overt political agitation during games to elect, preumably, more Democrats who are in charge of all the levers of power already in the cities where thes incidents occurred.

Gateway Pundit has a letter posted from law firm Pierce Bainbridge, who claim to represent Kyle Rittenhouse now. The letter outlines his defense.
It also includes this info: "The legal fees ... will be provided through donations to #FightBack Foundation Inc ... created by John Pierce and Lin Wood ..." A story at jsonline (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) seems to confirm this. According to an article in British tabloid The Sun, the website for the foundation is fightback.law. So those of us who have been wanting to donate should check this out. This MAY finally be a legitimate place to send donations, other than the many many BOGUS Kyle donation sites that popped up since the incident. Please pass along.

As much as I adore the First Lady, I'm not feeling that dress. Love the fuchsia/hot pink color. Just not the style or those black bow things.

I don't know if anybody has talked about the Jim Gaffigan Twitter meltdown Thursday night, but from his posts, you could get the idea that he knows he has seen the convention that is more indicative of winning and he's afraid that Trump will win, because it's all about castigating people who will vote for Trump and how we've been "deceived".
But one of Gaffigan's gesticulations is that "Hollywood" is just a city in California. Like we made up the adjective or symbol (or metonymy) "Hollywood". Why was a guy, born in Austin TX, who played linebacker for the Dallas Cowboys, and pretty much lived in Texas his whole life, called "Hollywood Henderson" if Hollywood is just a town? Well Wikipedia explains it: --- Henderson gave himself the nickname "Hollywood" for his flamboyant play and high-visibility lifestyle. --- (He was a cokehead.) But I've noticed this trend in liberals. Anytime you want to use a commonly-known symbol in a pejorative sense, they always try to take it away from you. Suddenly they become the ones (at least pretending to be) "rigorous" in their terminology. There is literally a faction of people that think that Trump should have shut the country down and simply paid people to survive for however many months it would take Covid-19 to go away. But "socialism" is some weird idea we have. Nobody is really "socialist". Gaffigan takes aim at that. There's really no "socialism" out there. It's just a story Trump tells his gullable followers. But like I said the left is rife with this stuff. If it's a placeholder name that doesn't boil down to a solid detail of life, they'll always try to take that word away from you.

- Democrats Demand Travel Ban On Slovenia To Prevent More Supermodel First Ladies From Invading America WASHINGTON, D.C.-Democrats, outraged by the beauty and poise of Melania Trump, are demanding an immediate travel ban to prevent further supermodel First Ladies from entering the country in the future. The recommended travel ban would include Melania Trump's home country of Slovenia, as well as several other Eastern European countries known for beautiful women interested in migrating to America. "This is nothing short of an invasion!" said Becky McTweebly, a professional activist and cat mom. "These women are coming into this country stealing our modeling jobs and our First Lady jobs!

Every range you shoot at, if they allow it, scoop up all the spent brass you can. Even if you don't handload yourself, you will be able to sell the brass to handloaders. At these ammo prices, it could very well be worth your while. I handload all my centerfire ammo, and I always scarf up whatever brass I can find. You would be amazed at some of the expensive brass you find. Once I found over 50 reloadable 303 Enfield; guys who leave good stuff like that behind must be made of money.

My SIL is at the NASCAR race at Daytona right this very moment. She said the stands are very sparse. I'm hoping it's because of boycotts and people being ticked off royally at the direction NASCAR is headed kowtowing to ridiculous rayciss BS. I can't imagine many of those types of people would be skipping out on this very popular race in particular because of Wuflu fears.

Has anyone read the comments on twitter about the people rallying in the Portland suburb? Sometimes I have to pinch myself to see if I am awake or stuck in a twilight zone alternate reality. The commenters are all in agreement that white supremacists, Nazis and racists are going into Portland to harass peaceful protestors. How can two groups of people look at something and see exact opposite realities?

NPR promotes insane book celebrating looting and riots
Vicky Osterweil's new book, In Defense of Looting: A Riotous History of Uncivil Action, is a social justice justification for property damage and theft. This book promoting riots is a number one new release on Amazon, a mega-corporation that benefits every time a local shop gets torched. Speaking to NPR's Natalie Escobar, Osterweil made the point that looting during the course of riots is a redistribution of wealth, not theft, and that property damage, too, is simply a way to reapportion assets which she deems necessary in an unequal society. Good then let's reapportion every penny the book makes to the businesses that have been looted. Posted by: TheQuietMan at August 29, 2020 07:48 PM (5tWEb) 501

I think it's more like they treat anyone who comes hat in hand for some help like shit because they can for one and for another they want to assert their Nerd fu and group belonging over those who are newbies. Newbies interrupt their bonding experience by actually having some problem that they may or may not be able to solve thus endangering their rating within the tribe. This makes them tense and angry and they take it out on the one who's causing it.

QDP, I have a different take on your question. In the workplace, I can be a real SOB. Less so at my current job, but I had the assholery dialed up to 11 at the last one. Why? Necessity. Time-wasting morons and other dummies will cause infinite problems if you let them. So, you have to impose transaction costs for interacting with you, so that everyone has to say to themselves, "does this really require asymmetrical bear's attention?" It's like critters that a brightly colored in nature; it signals: if you fuck with me, there will be regrets. I tried the other way first: gentleness, killing them with kindness, understanding. And it don't work because most people simply don't give a shit about our time, feelings, or problems.

To give an example of how vital wearing a mask is, I just spent 6 days in the Hospital.
Had some problems and then had to be held for observation. During that time, all the staff wore the masks etc. And I would expect them to because the public would expect that and lawyers but guess what? I didn't wear mine most of the time and no one, not a nurse, doctor or even my roommate said boo about it. Oh they had a notice saying we were supposed to wear a mask whenever anyone came into the room but I would always forget and half the time didn't know where the mask was any way. (no pockets on them dressing gowns). So just like Fauci, he felt no need to wear it for his OWN protection. It's a visual placebo to give people and skyhook to hang onto telling them they're safe from the nasty bug. (even tho they aren't any safer) Posted by: jakee308 at August 29, 2020 08:07 PM (YOHxA) 544

jakee308, 6 days in a hospital sounds serious. Glad you are out and recovered.

>>It's a visual placebo to give people and skyhook to hang onto telling them they're safe from the nasty bug. (even tho they aren't any safer)
Posted by: jakee308 at August 29, 2020 08:07 PM (YOHxA) I agree. Had a customer with a mask on that read: this mask is as useless as our governor ! (Evers-WI) I laughed out loud. He said he gets that reaction a lot. *Hope you are doing better Posted by: My life is insanity at August 29, 2020 08:11 PM (Z/jzm) 549
. I've read Elon Musk is also still quite hard to talk to sometimes. I guess his autism is worse some days than others.

I get that all the time. The info is in the trouble ticket. Then they make some snide comment about how I need to do X, which was documented in the ticket they didn't read.

Yeah but not too bad. Heart artery blockage. Small but hurt like hell and needed to get fixed. I got some stents and it all cleared up. The time after was because they gave me a med that I don't do well on for high blood pressure. Causes heart rate erratic. So they were keeping me because my heart rate was (wait for it) erratic. Finally they listened to what I was saying and changed the med to one that I knew worked. I have a abnormal reaction sometimes to meds. It makes life difficult dealing with doctors. I had nurses yelling at me cause I kept saying it was the med and they kept saying the med was a superduper fixitall med that works for EVERYONE. (except ME) Luckily I have it on record of 10 years ago when I was on that med and things went sideways for some reason and my heart rate got erratic. They did tests and couldn't figure out why so I said "why not give me a different med and see what happens?" Bingo heart rate smoothed out, Blood pressure under control. All this was noted by my cardiologist and the hospital saw that and changed the med. (jeessh!) I recommend to everyone to take a cholesterol drug AND to get some really accurate (mri/ultrasound) testing done for artery blockage as even if there is no pain, it can make your life a drag plus eventually it will close and it will hurt at best or it could be the big one and you find yourself on the floor breathing your last. Strangely I wasn't scared during it, it just hurt a lot. Posted by: jakee308 at August 29, 2020 08:19 PM (YOHxA) 553

I
was reported for not wearing a mask appropriately. I think the bigger issue was that I wouldn't apologize nor acknowledge the rank of the offended nor acknowledge the benefit of the mask. Posted by: AmericanKestrel at August 29, 2020 07:50 PM (IDhUW) Fuck you is always an appropriate response to those people. Posted by: Mr Aspirin Factory at August 29, 2020 07:55 PM (Rz0fv) --- the chart notes for my latest VA visit to see my primary quack read that Dr DeJour (i never get the same Resident twice) that i was wearing a "filthy" mask and only changed when they threatened to not "see" me... it also notes that i stated it was a "protest" over the masks "because they don't do anything"... he tried the "i can send you the reports..." bullshit, but i cut him off by telling him i've been reading the literature all along, which is why i knew they were useless. i also told him Fauci was a liar who had been wrong on AIDS, the swine flu, and now the #ChiComCrud. they're not used to dealing with patients like me, that aren't impressed with them being "doctors", and who know all the specialized lingo.

I love it when you document what you're problem is and the techs keep telling you to do X but if they read what you have done they would realize you already tried that. Usually takes 2 techs before someone actually reads what you've done and checked and starts to actually troubleshoot the problem as a problem and not a user error.

I have a doctor who I have a good relationship with. He knows I won't do a Karen on him when he speaks the truth or hits me with facts. He told me that Doctors don't listen to patients. It's USUALLY a waste of their time so they ignore what the patients say. This CAN result in important things getting missed so the patient has to keep repeating it and not assume the doctor paid any attention the first or second or third time. And boy was he right. Nurses will do it too they just generally are less abrupt and kinder about it Posted by: jakee308 at August 29, 2020 08:30 PM (YOHxA) 560

405- When I worked in PR, my client was Scott Adams. This was back when he got up at 430 am to do the strips for United Media and then go to work in a cubicle farm. It took a long time for him to become an overnight sensation, and working with him was a career highlight. I got him on six magazine covers, several front page newspaper stories and his first non-cartoon book contract.
He had incredible drive and was very cooperative. And yep, he published his email address and people would send him their workplace stories. He got a ton of ideas like that. He was also a lot of laughs. I would have to close my office door because I was laughing so much it became disruptive. Posted by: vivi at August 29, 2020 08:52 PM (11H2y) 563

I usually apologize if I have them do something they may have already done to troubleshoot. But if I don't have good notes, I have to have them do it.
