This should be the last post on the Old & Busted.
The wars of the future will not be fought on the battlefield or at sea. They will be fought in space, or possibly on top of a very tall mountain. In either case, most of the actual fighting will be done by small robots. And as you go forth today remember always your duty is clear: To build and maintain those robots.
The AMO seminar this week is featuring one Alexei Belolipetski. Ned, isn't this one of the two Russian students who were talking, in Russian, during our Statistical Mechanics class? I'm sure they were just talking about the weather and not the exam but who knows. I propose we go to the seminar and ask him at his qualifier just what he was talking about during that "chat". Just a thought...
Apparently there wasn't a brawl the other day at a Kenny Rogers book signing. Javalina avaliable for comment but too drunk to be taken seriously.
Apparently there was a brawl the other day at an NBA game. Apparently some players will be charged with crimes. Javalina unavailable for comment.

New York Changing - a collection of photos taken from the exact same spot decades apart. Some photos document dramatic change; some poignantly reflect different eras; while others have a subtle "Highlights-for-Kids' Spot the Differences" quality. A few, like the Chelsea Hotel, just remain the same.
Sure, you've hacked your firefox and your OS on your computer. Maybe you even messed with your hardware or overclocked the processor. But have you ever thought about hacking your house?
Speaking of airtravel , how about a fleet of "air taxis" that shuttle you around directly to the small airports next to your destination, all for the price of a conventional airline ticket? That could be a reality if this project wins certification in two years.

Weed Who knew scoring some weed was just a few clicks away. What doesn't Amazon.com sell?
The Heckler's Code - If you're from the DC area you've probably heard of Robin Ficker, Bullets fan and one of the most notorious hecklers to ever wave a rubber chicken. He read Phil Jackson's biography out loud to him during timeouts; dressed as a waitress to taunt a player involved in a restaurant fight; caused the NBA to institute the "Ficker rule" regulating verbal abuse by fans; and was flown in by Barkley to heckle the Bulls from courtside during the '93 Bulls-Suns playoffs.
Badges? We doan need no stinkin' badges!

Y'know, for the kids! - What happens when the National Reconnaissance Office, the NSA, the CIA and the FBI respond to a government mandate to make a kids-oriented section of their website? Bad typography, hamfisted pleas, stupid mascots, and terrible, terrible music.

So I was looking around the central texas kiteboarding association page earlier because the wind reminded me that it's time to get out there again, and I came across this guy's video montage resume. If you click on the link you'll probably be amazed. I thought it was really impressive... makes me wish I was creative.
Now if only the wind would pick up and the homework would settle down I could get some riding in.

Bush caught with his pants down.
Survey question: where will you be for Thanksgiving? Is anyone in town without plans? I was thinking of inviting people over to eat, but I don't want to go through the humiliation of asking a bunch of people only to listen to their responses of how they aren't in town or already are doing something. (This is still in the exploratory committee stage, and not the actual invitation stage.)
Finally, a resource that not only lets me know which professors are boring but also which ones are hot.

Brent Musberger Drinking Game Anyone who has paid attention to some of the things this jackass says when broadcasting Big XII football games ought to get a kick out of this. I think he's doing the ACC game this weekend, but maybe he'll do the Big XII championship in a couple of weeks.
So all this rain reminds me of my college years in san marcos and the october floods of '98. Without going into detail here, I have a link to a "what if" scenario for the exact same storm occuring above mansfield dam and austin. It's a long but interesting read. The article also describes why we're so flood prone here in central texas.
Why Kerry lost Ohio I know what you're saying, "Enough already, Jen". But if you don't want to read the NYT magazine article, then here it is in a nutshell: "The 10 Ohio counties with the highest turnout percentages, many of them small and growing, all went for Bush, and none of them had a turnout rate of less than 75 percent." Ahhhh!
Hooray! Despite the rain, it's a glorious day because it marks the beginning of the testing period of Alkaline Earth 2.0: Base Revenge. (Speaking of the rain, NanoCindy's rain post was #1000! More hooray!) The time-consuming efforts of mrflip (and to a lesser degree myself) have resulted in a new system that is searchable and customizable. We want you to visit our temporary home and try all the features you want to make sure everything works.
You should all be receiving new passwords in your email (which you should change to something you like), and if you do not you should post in the comments and I will send new information to you. Log in and try everything out. Look up user information, do old searches, look for formatting mistakes...but remember that anything posted there but not here before the final changeover will be erased. At some point before the one-year anniversary in December, we will take the finished product and move it back over to http://www.alkalineearth.com. From that point on, everything will be archived, so do not post anything you want to save for posterity over at the temporary site.
Have fun trying out the new version...
Speaking of all this rain, you need to watch for high water when driving around so your car doesn't get stranded. Should that happen, you'll be wishing you had a crane or something to fish it out. Perhaps you can call these professionals.
So, if I'm reading this correctly, today's partial rainfall amounts alone exceed the normal November monthly average.
Just FYI.
Nothing witty to say.
Carry on.

ESPN Video of Pistons-Pacers brawl - Ron Artest crosschecks Wallace going for a layup; Wallace shoves Artest; both benches clear and the fans get into it. Just as things calm down, someone nails Artest with a soda from the stands... and then it's like you showed up to the saloon where Sue's Pa dealt stud on the day they filmed Shane.
You too can browse the interent and pee down your leg like I just did, but now without all the mess. All you need is the Stadium Pal catheter or the Stadium Gal synthetic skin barrier.
And fellas, what's more fun than watching guys with big asses and tight pants run around a diamond? How about comparing cathater sizes over a few cold ones at the local sports bar. Let's just say I downloaded and cutout mine faster than you can say Oscar-Meyer!

Yarrr, ye be not a real scruvy dog unless ye brings a parrot on yer ship. Or in this case, you're not a proper limey without RN Parrot No.1.
It's also interesting that Andrew Jackson the presidend, Andrew Jackson the parrot's namesake, had a parrot named Poll that was ejected from his funeral for swearing:Jackson, a crusty old warrior, had a parrot that he taught to say nasty things. In the middle of the ex-president's funeral, the story goes, the parrot flew to the dome atop the tomb and shrieked a string of foul words.

Wow
. I have to admit that I was never a big fan of that "even in jest" thing being a felony. There's a relevant sketch by The State which I really wish I could find online. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?
Anyway, I say it's all silliness. Sheesh! Heaven forfend that we should sing the last verse of this song with a little more vehemence nowadays.
Tonight...It's Found Magazine at the Alamo Drafthouse!!! I went to see it last year with some of youse guys and it was phenomenal. It's not a movie but a bit of awesome performance art where the creators of Found Magazine bring their best stuff and present it to the audience. This could be crappy but the guys are really excited and charismatic about the whole thing and they spin really great back-stories for these random bits of paper and photos found on the ground. From heartwrenching break-up notes to children's crayola pictures to simple grocery lists, all of these bits of ephemera tell a story about the lives of strangers that are eerily similar to your own life. Almost none of the notes were meant to be read by others but once they were lost on the ground they became windows into the private lives of others.
And it's only 3 bucks for all this excitement!!! I bought my ticket last week and you should come with me at 9:45 and see the show.
Geesh. What a dork. Seriously. Do you know anyone like this?
Unbelievable So, only Air America, NPR, and the Washington Post have posted this story. A man has set himself on fire near the White House (...please may he recover).
Another example of why I hate people. Huge news in world politics is less important than a bad CSI spin off. The only way I could be more enraged is if the show interrupted was CSI Miami during one of David Caruso's monologues where he looks all stoic and says something stupid in a overly dramatic fashion.
What villian or which video game character would you be?
Those were gimmies so I could post this and this
Kitties! Really, really angry kitties.
Along a similarly disturbing line of thought as what nate presented below, there's no way in hell you'll be able to get that Jones Soda holliday pack you've always wanted with all the flavors of thanksgiving like green bean cassarole.
Luckily for you, x-entertainment managed to get thier hands on a case and wrote a nice little article letting you know what you'll been missing.

I already told some about the BBC 3-part series entitled The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear, but after watching them I have to expound further on their greatness. The programme describes the rise of both radical Islamism and neoconservative thought in the 50's. Both derived tremendous power from the ashes of the failure of the liberal dream to substantially improve people's lives. Additionally, the leftism prevalent in the 60's and 70's and its attendent individual freedoms threatened to erode the bonds of modern society in the eyes of both groups. With the fall of traditional conservatism after Nixon and Kissinger left office, the stage was set for the neocons to usher in a new age. By demonizing the USSR, Reagan/Bush and their advisors successfully mobilized political fervor. The undercover support of freedom fighters in Afghanistan put neoconservatism in bed with Islamists, and both claimed the fall of the Soviet Union as their own victory (though Gorbechev's reforms and the already rotting Soviet infrastructure were the true reasons behind the fall). Without an "evil" enemy to defend against, both movements went into free fall. The neocons spent the next decade mobilizing the religious right (who had previously been told to stay away from the polls by their preachers) and fighting the nebulous moral enemy personified by Bill Clinton. The Islamists attempted to oust the "impure" members of society and their own movement and ended up self-destructing.
Then came 9/11. The neocons snapped into action and declared a new enemy of evil. Previously, Al Qaeda had been more or less invented out of whole cloth so that the US could prosecute bin Laden in absentia for the embassy bombings. This was necessary because bin Laden could only be linked to the crimes if it could be proved that he was the leader of some organization (think of RICO and the Mafia). That convenient definition of Al Qaeda was promulgated by the administration, who had no real proof that such a vast network existed. The show goes to much effort and into much detail in the third episode to show that such a network never existed (and indeed that bin Laden never used the term Al Qaeda until after the US did!) but that those in charge simply did not care because it fit their preconceived notions of good and evil. (BTW, this lack of concern for real facts was presaged by the five or six invented Clinton scandals that all amounted to nothing). Having a phantom enemy to hunt down, the US and UK pushed full tilt into designing ways to stop it. They adopted the precautionary principle (from 80's environmentalism, no less!) which states that if you believe an attack is possible, you must act in advance to stop it even without any evidence that such an attack is imminent or likely. You must stop people from attacking before you have proof that they will or have even thought of doing so. In this state of affairs, the person with the bleakest and most grim outlook on affairs carries the day because the worst situation you can imagine must be protected against. It also means you can never come to a point of success because the imagination can always fabricate new demons.
I'm not doing the program justice, even with this long diatribe. It is more thoughtful and makes a much stronger case, and it also has lots of archival footage from educational and propaganda films (including some Jam Handy films that I have seen). Really well done and simply fascinating. I recommend you hightail it to your nearest bittorrent client and get downloading, cause you're not gonna see it on TV over here and what does the BBC care anyway?
So I just bit into a date and to my dismay a puff of green "smoke" came out. Upon futher inspection the whole seed inside was covered in green mold. That's enough to put someone off dates for life...
Just FYI to all you date eaters out there, peel it open and check out the seed. There could be a green goblin waiting for you in there.
Hopefully the mermaids here will have the woman parts on the bottom and the fish parts on the top.

Two breaking news items from the world of Bowling: Liz Johnson finished as the top amateur (fourth overall) in qualifying, thus becoming the first woman to qualify for a PBA Tour event. Meanwhile, Walter Ray Williams, Jr. decisively won his 40th title, putting him one behind bowling legend Earl Anthony for the most ever. He's struck or spared in his last 150 straight frames, and missed strikes in only four frames total out of the semis and finals. Right now he's Ken Jennings with a big right arm.

Movies in the pipeline that make me happy: Tim Burton Directing Johnny Depp in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; more Dahl with Wes Anderson directing Fantastic Mr Fox; Michael Chabon writing, Yuen Wo Ping directing Snow and the Seven; and Simpsons 2008. 'Course, if none of those get your boat floating, maybe you'd like some Movie Posters for Films That Will Never Be Made.
Wordcount - navigate the English language by frequency. To find your new codename, take two words proximate to your name in the list. I am "Cobra Jefferson"; Pablo is "Breather Fu"; Tai is "Trotters Ilfracombe"; Bunny is "Brooks Deviance"; Leroy is "Tawney Mystification." We could make a pretty good blaxploitation movie with those as character names.
What is happening now - this is seriously cool. Take web feeds from major news sources; perform linguistic analysis to find the dominant keywords; select a photo associated with each keyword; arrange photos in a 10x10 matrix. Now you can browse history by the hour. For another take on what the world is thinking, see Google's Zeitgeist.

His Ronalness and I have long paid lip service to becoming badass freelance photographers, but (at least as far as I'm concerned) have never executed that plan. (We're also going to win the prize at Alamo's Open Screen Night at some point, just to let you know the scope of our plans.) The urge comes and goes, but whenever I see collections like this one I get filled with the burning desire to take pictures that aren't total crap blurfests. (moreover, i get a burning desire to move to Tokyo, but that's another story). Hover your mouse over the picture descriptions to get an English translation. Some of my favorites are cats, Mt. Fuji, Sumida River, Ginza (recognize suntory?), cherry blossoms (better than mine), Tokyo Disneyland at Halloween, and Christmas in Shinjyuku.

Interestingly, this discussion of Xeno's paradox exemplifies Xeno's paradox.

In case you missed it... Nature has an article about ancient Roman hand cream from AD150. Amazingly, a container of this stuff was recovered nearly intact (including finger-marks!) and this allowed scientists (cosmetologists?) to recreate the stuff. According to the last paragraph, those Romans knew how to cover up scars on your skin like no one's business.

If running the country were up to folks between the ages of 18 and 30.... dKos isn't the most neutral site ever, but I don't think you can skew hard numbers.
Hamilton College's varsity streaking team (SFW) - a team I think I'd like to root for but never see play.
"We kept referring to ourselves as a team," said Craig Moores, a senior studio arts major, "and then it dawned on us that if we were truly a team, we'd have to have away games." ... "They kept asking us what cause we were streaking for," said Mr. Moores, "so we finally had to start throwing some causes out there, but look - we're just not nudists for Nader."
In the same vein as that google ad over Wheatsville, there is another obtuse billboard that overlooks the Kerbey Lane parking lot (attached to the Showdown). It says something to the effect of "We're Christians. We're Sorry" and points to this website. If you look up the domain name, it belongs to Clint Jurek of Austin (but googling that name tells you nothing). Is this guy a brave sonufagun or just deluded?
The Omnificent English Dictionary In Limerick Form - an attempt to define every word in the English language with a limerick.

Let these people do the reacting for you. (NYT) Let's all collectively let go. read this article and realize that people in portland are way more sad about the election than you are and are dealing with the outcome in a much less rational, more onionesque way. let them do the freaking out so that you (I) can get on with your (our) lives.
I have tallied the results for the AE Election Pool voting. I declared Ohio, New Mexico, and Iowa to be Fiascoes. (Full results are here). The closest prediction was turned in by... me. But I recuse myself and declare splatnikGanglion the winner! He and DrFeelJay tied, but since PJ courageously picked 5 fiascoes (3 correctly), he wins the ass. Here is how everyone fared:
- 4 wrong: Flip (FL, IA, NM, OH)
- 5 wrong: DrFeelJay (CO, FL, IA, NM, OH) & sG (CO, FL, MI, NV, VA)
- 7 wrong: DonCarlo (AZ, CO, FL, IL, IA, NV, NM), kMania (AK, AZ, CO, IA, MT, NM, NV), Lulu (AZ, FL, IA, NH, NM, NV, OH), gMcD (AZ, IA, ME, NM, NV, TE, WI)
- 8 wrong: BitchAss (AR, IA, MO, NV, NM, NC, OH, VA) & Flanders (FL, HI, IA, MN, NH, NM, OH, WV)
- 10 wrong: Natedogg (AZ, FL, HI, IA, MI, MN, NM, NV, OH, PA)
- ?? wrong: Leroy (see below)
Ironic facts: 1) Though Natedogg's ballot was the most wrong, his was the only one correctly predicting a Bush victory. I hate it when that midwestern pessimism is justified. 2) We have missing ballots: leroy spent thirty minutes calculating his ballot, which I don't have. I blame Diebold.
So, the turn out is roughly 114.6 million. I just want to know what motivates people to vote...what does it take...let me know and I will get there. People stood in line for 4 hours for this?
