#Al Green is retarded

[godisarepublican]

Possibly retarded member of congress says he's filing Articles of Impeachment against Trump

This guy is a blither idiot! We need to impose an I.Q. test on members of congress... make sure they're at least in the double digits...

So the story says that this Al Green, retard, announced that this impeachment would be a grassroots movement.

He didn't. He's not that bright.

No.

What this idiot said was that it's going to be a "Grass up" movement, and the media is translating RetardSpeak into English for him.

Stop. Just stop. I know he's black but he isn't worthy of a 2-year term at a Burger King drivethrough. Treat him the same way you would if he were white: Savage him for his mental incompetence.

Thank you & God bless.

Ciri's & Avallac'h's Reunion in the Draft of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

327128|00000000||[DEBUG] A player playing as Avallac'h’s replacer stands on a green, grassy, ​​undulating meadow. Tall, old trees shoot up from the ground all around. They are fossilized - they look like huge statues. Avallach walks through a small clearing and notices a girl in front of him, her back turned. Avallach approaches the girl and a recorded dialogue begins, in which the Sage greets the girl by the name of Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon. 327130|00000000||[DEBUG] Ciri turns to him and Avallach adds that he expected to find her here. Ciri replies that she also sensed his presence, but approaches the Sage with reserve.

457627|00000000||Hello, Cirilla Fiona Elena Riannon. 457629|00000000||Avallac'h… 457631|00000000||I expected to find you here. 457633|00000000||And I knew you were looking for me. 457635|00000000||I regret that we meet under such unfavorable circumstances, but one does not always have a choice. 457637|00000000||Then I am listening.

327134|00000000||[DEBUG] Ciri asks Avallach to take a walk with her to the water. After this line, both characters walk side by side, talking in gameplay. 327136|00000000||[DEBUG] Avallach and Ciri walk through the stone forest and talk. ... During the conversation, they both reach a small lake, where dead trees are leaving their stone roots. Three swans float on the surface of the lake.

457639|00000000||Tir Na Lia is on the brink of destruction. Ithlina's prophecy will soon be fulfilled. 457641|00000000||You were looking for me to tell me about it. 457643|00000000||I wanted to find you before Eredin does. He needs your blood to open the portal. 457645|00000000||He intends to lead Aen Elle through it to the world of Aen Seidhe. 457647|00000000||What will he do with the humans? 457649|00000000||We both know Eredin. There is no place for humans in his plans.

327142|00000000||[DEBUG] Ciri and Avallac'h talk, sitting by the water.

457651|00000000||You have to run, Ciri. Eredin will use you, then kill you. 457653|00000000||Just like he murdered King Auberon. 457655|00000000||I suspected him of that. Eredin has a plan and he will stop at nothing. 457657|00000000||How do you plan on stopping him? 457659|00000000||Death is too vulgar a punishment. Eredin will be humiliated. I will place a reversal curse on him, which will turn the intelligent and beautiful leader of the Wild Hunt into a bottomlessly stupid, retarded monstrosity. 457661|00000000||How do you plan to do this? After Auberon's death, Eredin is the most powerful elf in Tir Na Lia. 457663|00000000||That's why I had to flee. There's no room for both of us in Tir Na Lia. 457665|00000000||You didn't answer my question. 457667|00000000||Fortunately, not all the Aen Elle have lost their minds. One of Eredin's lieutenants, Ge'els, will bring me his blood. He will use it to cast a curse. 457669|00000000||Did you find me just to save me from Eredin? 457671|00000000||No. I want to save my people too. Only I don't intend to hurt you. There will be time for specific plans when we get rid of Eredin.

327148|00000000||[DEBUG] Ciri agrees to help.

457627|00000000||Witaj Cirillo Fiono Eleno Riannon. 457629|00000000||Avallac'h… 457631|00000000||Spodziewałem się, że cię tutaj zastanę. 457633|00000000||A ja wiedziałam, że mnie szukasz. 457635|00000000||Żałuję, że spotykamy się w tak niesprzyjających okolicznościach, ale nie zawsze ma się możliwość wyboru. 457637|00000000||W takim razie słucham cię. 457639|00000000||Tir Na Lia stoi na skraju zagłady. Przepowiednia Ithliny wkrótce się wypełni. 457641|00000000||Szukałeś mnie, żeby mi o tym powiedzieć. 457643|00000000||Chciałem cię znaleźć zanim zrobi to Eredin. Twoja krew jest mu potrzebna do otwarcia portalu. 457645|00000000||Zamierza przeprowadzić przezeń Aen Elle do świata Aen Seidhe. 457647|00000000||Co zrobi z ludźmi? 457649|00000000||Oboje znamy Eredina. W jego planach nie ma miejsca dla ludzi. 457651|00000000||Musisz uciekać, Ciri. Eredin wykorzysta cię, a potem zabije. 457653|00000000||Tak samo jak zamordował króla Auberona. 457655|00000000||Podejrzewałem go o to. Eredin ma plan i nie cofnie się przed niczym. 457657|00000000||W jaki sposób chcesz go powstrzymać? 457659|00000000||Śmierć to zbyt prostacka kara. Eredin zostanie upokorzony. Nałożę na niego klątwę odwrócenia, która z inteligentnego i pięknego przywódcy Dzikiego Gonu uczyni bezdennie głupią, upośledzoną pokrakę. 457661|00000000||Jak zamierzasz tego dokonać? Po śmierci Auberona Eredin jest najpotężniejszym elfem w Tir Na Lia. 457663|00000000||Dlatego musiałem uciekać. W Tir Na Lia nie ma miejsca dla nas obu. 457665|00000000||Nie odpowiedziałeś na moje pytanie. 457667|00000000||Na szczęście nie wszyscy Aen Elle stracili rozum. Jeden z zastępców Eredina - Ge’els dostarczy mi jego krew. Za jej pomocą rzuci klątwę. 457669|00000000||Znalazłeś mnie tylko po to, żeby mnie uratować przed Eredinem? 457671|00000000||Nie. Ja też chcę ratować mój naród. Tyle, że nie zamierzam cię krzywdzić. Na konkretne plany przyjdzie czas, kiedy pozbędziemy się Eredina.

The phone or computer you’re reading this on may not be long for this world. Maybe you’ll drop it in water, or your dog will make a chew toy of it, or it’ll reach obsolescence. If you can’t repair it and have to discard it, the device will become e-waste, joining an alarmingly large mountain of defunct TVs, refrigerators, washing machines, cameras, routers, electric toothbrushes, headphones. This is “electrical and electronic equipment,” aka EEE—anything with a plug or battery. It’s increasingly out of control.

As economies develop and the consumerist lifestyle spreads around the world, e-waste has turned into a full-blown environmental crisis. People living in high-income countries own, on average, 109 EEE devices per capita, while those in low-income nations have just four. A new UN report finds that in 2022, humanity churned out 137 billion pounds of e-waste—more than 17 pounds for every person on Earth—and recycled less than a quarter of it.

That also represents about $62 billion worth of recoverable materials, like iron, copper, and gold, hitting e-waste landfills each year. At this pace, e-waste will grow by 33 percent by 2030, while the recycling rate could decline to 20 percent. (You can see this growth in the graph below: purple is EEE on the market, black is e-waste, and green is what gets recycled.)

“What was really alarming to me is that the speed at which this is growing is much quicker than the speed that e-waste is properly collected and recycled,” says Kees Baldé, a senior scientific specialist at the United Nations Institute for Training and Research and lead author of the report. “We just consume way too much, and we dispose of things way too quickly. We buy things we may not even need, because it's just very cheap. And also these products are not designed to be repaired.”

Humanity has to quickly bump up those recycling rates, the report stresses. In the first pie chart below, you can see the significant amount of metals we could be saving, mostly iron (chemical symbol Fe, in light gray), along with aluminum (Al, in dark gray), copper (Cu), and nickel (Ni). Other EEE metals include zinc, tin, and antimony. Overall, the report found that in 2022, generated e-waste contained 68 billion pounds of metal.

E-waste is a complex thing to break down: A washing machine is made of totally different components than a TV. And even for product categories, not only do different brands use different manufacturing processes, but even different models within those brands vary significantly. A new washing machine has way more sensors and other electronics than one built 30 years ago.

Complicating matters even further, e-waste can contain hazardous materials, like cobalt, flame retardants, and lead. The report found that each year, improperly processed e-waste releases more than 125,000 pounds of mercury alone, imperiling the health of humans and other animals. “Electronic waste is an extremely complex waste stream,” says Vanessa Gray, head of the Environment and Emergency Telecommunications Division at the UN’s International Telecommunication Union and an author of the report. “You have a lot of value in electronic waste, but you also have a lot of toxic materials that are dangerous to the environment.”

That makes recycling e-waste a dangerous occupation. In low- and middle-income countries, informal e-waste recyclers might go door-to-door collecting the stuff. To extract valuable metals, they melt down components without proper safety equipment, poisoning themselves and the environment. The new report notes that in total, 7.3 billion pounds of e-waste is shipped uncontrolled globally, meaning its ultimate management is unknown and likely not done in an environmentally friendly way. Of that, high-income countries shipped 1.8 billion pounds to low- and middle-income countries in 2022, swamping them with dangerous materials.

High-income countries have some of this informal recycling, but they also have formal facilities where e-waste is sorted and safely broken down. Europe, for example, has fairly high formal e-waste recycling rates, at about 43 percent. But globally, recycling is happening nowhere near enough to keep up with the year-over-year growth of the waste. Instead of properly mining EEE for metals, humanity keeps mining more ore out of the ground.

Still, the report found that even the small amount of e-waste that currently gets recycled avoided the mining of 2 trillion pounds of ore for virgin metal in 2022. (It takes a lot of ore to produce a little bit of metal.) The more metals we can recycle from e-waste, the less mining we’ll need to support the proliferation of gadgets. That would in turn avoid the greenhouse gases from such mining operations, plus losses of biodiversity.

The complexity of e-waste, though, makes it expensive to process. As the chart above shows, even an ambitious scenario of a formal e-waste collection rate in 2030 is 44 percent. “There is no business case for companies to just collect e-waste and to make a profit out of this in a sustainable manner,” says Baldé. “They can only survive if there is legislation in place which is also compensating them.”

The report notes that 81 countries have e-waste policies on the books, and of those, 67 have provisions regarding extended producer responsibility, or EPR. This involves fees paid by manufacturers of EEE that would go toward e-waste management.

Of course, people could also stop throwing so many devices away in the first place, something right-to-repair advocates have spent years fighting for. Batteries, for instance, lose capacity after a certain number of charge cycles. If a phone can’t hold a charge all day anymore, customers should be able to swap in a new battery. “Manufacturers shouldn't be able to put artificial limitations on that ability,” says Elizabeth Chamberlain, director of sustainability at iFixit, which provides repair guides and tools. That includes limiting access to parts and documentation. “Repair is a harm-reduction strategy. It's not the be-all-end-all solution, but it's one of many things we need to do as a global society to slow down the rate at which we're demanding things of the planet.”

At the core of the e-waste crisis is the demand: A growing human population needs phones to communicate and fridges to keep food safe and heat pumps to stay comfortable indoors. So first and foremost we need high-quality products that don’t immediately break down, but also the right to repair when they do. And what absolutely can’t be fixed needs to move through a safe, robust e-waste recycling system. “We are consuming so much,” says Baldé, “we cannot really recycle our way out of the problem.”

Evaluating Citrullus colocynth Extracts as Natural Preservatives for Chevon Meatballs

Abstract

Chevon is one of the most favorable meats between Arabian populations. Its consider one of the primary source of protein, fat, and water, which providing all essential amino acids, micronutrients, vitamins B6, B12, vitamin D, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, which makes it best media for growth of microorganism and highly perishable food item. That increasing the demand to find safe materials extending the shelf life of meat. The aim of the study is to examine Citrullus colocynthis extract as natural preservatives. Fifty chevon samples were investigated microbiologically. Then determined the antibacterial effect of Citrullus colocynthis (aquas & ethanolic) extracts by different concentrations; (1.25, 2.5, 5, 10, 12.5 & 15) % against six foodborne microorganisms (Staphylococcus aureus and Listeria monocytogenes Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Salmonella enteritidis and Vibrio parahaemolyticus). Finally, addition of the different concretions of each extract to the chevon was performed. On the other side obtained results observed that all extracts have antibacterial effect by varies degree against all tested microorganisms and the extracts successes to extend the shelf life of chevon to about 17 days. According to obtained results indicated that herbal extracts consider a promising choice for the creation as a novel technique to overcome some food pathogens. So, it can be utilized as an alternative to traditional food preservative products.

Introduction

Chevon is referred to the goat meat which considers as one of the most favorite edible red meat kind especially for Arabian societies consumers’. Chevon meat differ in nutritional values than beef meat as it has lower saturated fat, cholesterol and calories contents, in addition to its higher potassium and lower sodium contents all that make this meat kind of choice to people suffering from heart disease and other cardiovascular disorders (Singh et al., 2014).

On the other hand, chevon deterioration may result by the effect of; the meat enzymatic autolysis, lipid oxidation and/or microbial spoilage. Chevon as all meat kinds is one of the excellent media for microbial growth including foodborne microorganisms due to its nutritional value richness (Heifa’a et al., 2018).

Foodborne pathogens such as; (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium, Salmonella enteritidis, Listeria monocytogenes & Vibrio parahaemolyticus) in food poses food poisoning problem to the consumers’ health (Umesha and Manukumar, 2018). The zoonotic danger may cause by the foodborne microorganisms itself or caused by their toxins which leading to different severity of the illness signs or even death (Heredia and García, 2018; Allhyani et al., 2021).

Good preservation considered one of the best methods to avoid and/or retarding the meat spoilage (Sánchez-Ortega et al., 2014). although, there are many chemical preservatives used in food industries but almost of these chemicals have very dangerous side effect on the consumers’ health specially to young, old and immunosuppressed consumers, the hazards increase with prolong consumption of the preserved food products which may causing bad effect on liver, kidney in addition to, their teratogenic and carcinogenic. Therefore, almost recent food hygienists and researchers looking for new natural safe preservatives which can prolong the shelf life of the food item and avoid toxicological effect of the traditional preservatives using different plant parts extracts including; leaves, fruits, stems, roots, seeds and bark (Shah et al., 2014; Abo hashem et al., 2022).

Citrullus colocynthis is one of cucurbitaceae family which are widely spread characterized by its rough angular stems, lobed leaves, solitary monoecious flowers, its fruit is green turn to yellow when ripe with size similar to small orange size with numerous ovoid, compressed, light yellowish to dark brown smooth seeds and characterized by its; antimicrobial, antioxidant, antidiabetic, anti-inflammatory, gut disorders including gastroenteritis, colic, indigestion, and dysentery with multiple other therapeutic potency without adverse effects on human health but until now there is a wide shortage on them as food natural perservatives (Al-Snafi, 2016; Rani et al., 2017; da Silva and Hussain, 2017). In addition to the nearly absent studies on their effect in chevon preservation. This study aimed to investigate antibacterial effect of Citrullus colocynthis different extracts against some food posining pathogens which isolated from chevon samples, Performed sensetivity test by different concentration of each extract and evalute the effect of addition of the plant extracts by different concentrations on minced chevon shelf life.

COMMERCIAL 

FLAT ROOFS

Flat roofs are becoming a popular choice for homeowners and developers building new homes because of their unique look and more modern aesthetics. Flat roofs, as the name suggests, is laid horizontally on the top of a building, but may have a slight slope. Asphalt and torch on flat roofs are usually the most common types of materials used in flat roofing projects and there are several pros and cons to take into consideration before you make the decision that this is the right type of roof for you.

COMMERCIAL ROOFING 

SERVICES

TPO ROOFS

Thermoplastic Polyolefin, or TPO, is commonly used in commercial roofing settings. The material is durable, lightweight, and energy-efficient, so a reduction in your cooling costs is likely. TPO is a polymer blend made with various rubbers, reinforcing fillers, polypropylene, and polyethylene. These polymers are infused with UV absorbing agents and flame retardants, making TPO fire and wind resistant.

TPO is a cooling roofing material that is Energy-star rated. Many people refer to TPO roofing as green roofing. So, another advantage of using this roofing material is that it is good for the environment. It is important that we all do our part to keep the world a great place. Why not start with the roof that you use on your business? There's tax credits, local credits, and energy credits in store for those who select the TPO flat roof system.

Firestone, Genflex, and Carlisle are among the TOP manufacturers offering quality roofing products. Cardinal Roofing works with the top TPO manufactures, giving you choices and assurance in quality products.

COMMERCIAL ROOFING COATING

Roof coating is used over an existing flat roof to extend its durability and lifetime. With the coating applied, the roof becomes a highly reflective surface that offers a range of benefits small and large. Many types of roof coatings are available, each consisting of liquefied polymers.

Benefits you'll enjoy when using roof coating with your new flat roof installation include:

✔ Preserve your roof, protecting it from excessive heat, cracks, splits, and more

✔ Extend the lifetime of your roof

✔ Further reduce cooling/energy costs

✔ Several types of flat roof coating available

Get Started

These exciting benefits are offered when business owners opt to add roof coating to their roof. But, there's far more benefits of roof coating than what's listed here. It is safe to say that roof coating is worth the time, money, and effort.

Roof coating is inexpensive and while it is ideal to install when installing your new flat roof, Cardinal Roofing pros can come back to the scene and add the coating at a later time as well. Roof coating provides business owners added protection to their investment as well as peace of mind. Knowing that a high-quality roof has been installed by Cardinal Roofing, with roof coating, is all the peace of mind you need.

MODIFIED BITUMEN

Modified Bitumen roofing is a single-ply rolled roofing material. It features a mineral-based wear surface that protects it from heat and moisture. The modified bitumen roof is installed by placing the adhesive material down onto the roof. It is easy-to install and while some homeowners and business owners choose to DIY, it is better to hire the professionals at Cardinal Roofing to handle the job. Our roofing installation experts ensure that your roof is installed the right way, the first time around, preventing headache and hassle in the future while ensuring longevity of your roof. Additionally, our roofing experts have the tools and safety equipment needed to ensure a smooth installation from start to finish. You'll be satisfied with the reduced energy costs, low maintenance, and great appeal of the modified bitumen roofing system.

EPDM ROOFING

Known for its superior strength and durability, EPDM has been used on commercial businesses and homes for more than four decades. Not only is it one of the oldest types of roofing materials available, it's also one of the most trusted. EPDM, or ethylene propylene diene monomer, is oftentimes used on low-slope buildings throughout Birmingham, but it's popularity extends throughout the country.

EPDM roofing is resilient, durable, and affordable, helping reduce energy costs and carbon footprint. Both a white reflective and black EPDM roofing colors are available. The flexible material is great for cold weather conditions and is resistant to hail damage, UV rays, and thermal shock.

It is up to you to maintain your EPDM roof after Cardinal Roofing installs the piece. Caring for the roof isn't difficult, luckily, especially with the help of our roofing experts. The reward of proper care and maintenance is a roof that provides a lifetime of around 30 years.

TORCH DOWN

Torch down roofing is similar to gravel and tar roofs, consisting of fiberglass and polyester layers with added bitumen added to the traditional tar and gravel layer system. The extra sheets are placed in overlap areas during installation using a flame torch that melts the asphalt together with the seams. Some people refer to torch down roofing as modified bitumen, though there are differences in the two. Torch down roofing is strong and resistant to rain and snow. The life expectancy of 15-years is great considering the low initial purchase costs. The attractiveness of this roof material is a plus. The tar roof doesn't offer the same type of beauty.

Samurai movies 5

Roruoni Kenshin - Not your typical spaghetti western. Sure, you got your good-bad guys—former bad guys turned good. You got your bad-bad guys who just want to go back to the olden days when the world was full of hot chicks and retards and you could spill guts freely. And, of course you have your ugly-bad guys, who are just retards. One of the big differences here is that all the good-bad guys are female. The title character Kenshin is played by the beautiful Maggie Q. Her Vietnamese Kung Fu is well utilized here with flying kicks, flying fists, and flying flying. What are the films values? Good? Bad? Ugly? Doesn't matter, it's all about the trickiness of redemption.

Lady Snowblood - I was pleasantly surprised. Seriously—every scene, shot, line, look, glance and gesture is beautiful. She's an Asura, which is Japanese for "Jedi"—no attachments, no emotions, remorseless and violent. The message here is that vengeance is tricky. That nut-sack for a chin Tarantino could've learnt a lot from this flick.

The Yakuza - I won't lie, it takes a bit to get past the 70s aesthetic. This is a classic story of loyalty and honor with katanas and blood. Of course there's also a hot chick, a MILF, some retards playing dice, plus Robert Mitchem and Ken Takakura, who turn in top performances. I have seen this movie so many times and still choke up at the ending. My takeaway, apologizing is tricky.

The Hidden Blade - Hey, wait a hot minute. They right off engage in witty sarcastic banter. I was told... never mind. Anyway, it's no Hidden Blade. Time passes on screen, not much happens, you feel all mushy at the ending.

Love and Honor - They say this is the third installment in the Twilight Samurai series. Don't know how it's a series. Different stories, different characters, different actors. Same values? The dad in this case is a food taster at the palace. Due to some shenanigans and hi-jinks in the kitchen he is accidentally blinded. Not to give too much away, but this does not please his honey. Apparently, making non-poisonous food is tricky.

13 Assassins - Whoa, this might be the greatest thing since 47 Ronin! The action that is. The story, meh. Twelve Ronin and a retard team up for vengeance against an evil lord. Blah, blah, blah heard it before. Luckily, there's no lack of action, as mentioned--swords, spears, blunt objects, guts, heads, spiky traps, flaming arrows, things blowing up. H-h-h-holy c-c-c-cow... just see it!

The Eyes of Laura Mars - Not sure how this got on the list. No Samurai, no swords, no retards, but it does have some very hot chicks—super models actually. It’s an olden film, made about the same time as the classics, so 60s. I guess it’s David Cronenburg’s first attempt at horror. As you can imagine it’s not very scary. Just a who-done-it crime/detective story with the usual Cronenburg psycho-delics,  psychoer chicks (ed: now you’re just making up words?) and creepy cinematography. That infomercial about creepy skin is scarier.

Okay, yeah, I'm taking a break from Samurai for a bit. (ed: Really, hmmm) These are some other movies that I can recommend.

Heat - Robert De Niro and Al Pacino, are you effing kidding me? And, it can't be the same Val Kilmer who plays a retard in Willow and the asshole in Top Gun. This is one of those odd flicks where you want to root for the bad guys, even though they are murdering thieves. Apparently, murdering and thieving are tricky.

Reality - From the trailer, I honestly thought she was the winner of some reality show. Nope, her name is Reality Winner :] Unbelievably tense. You will be rivetted just by watching Sydney Sweeney's face and won't believe 100 minutes just went by. Phew...

John Carter - If you're into sci-fi with a steampunk aesthetic, you will certainly enjoy this flick. The Princess of Mars is smokin hot and John isn't too hard to look at either. The CGI has aged well for older technology. The green six-limbed Tharks look real enough to me. As do the flying machines, fantastical cities, and space-angel temples. That dog-monster is hilarious.

Prince of Persia - Another hottie princess and good lookin prince. Good sword play, lots of parkour, gorgeous landscapes and pretty horses. I don't know how Disney gets away with so many racist stereotypes. I guess they never really say the bad-bad guys are Arabs. They call them Hassansins or something like that. The good-bad guys are Persians (Iranians) and Gandhi plays the ugly-bad guy.

The Banshees of Inisherin - Nope nuh-uh. Cannot more highly not recommend this movie. I can't believe I'm saying this, but there can be too many retards. Apparently, for some people, making a good movie is tricky. If I ever meet the wee-brained sonofabitch that made this flick, I swear I’m gonna punch him on his hairy nut-sack chin.

Robot Chicken #2: “Junk in the Trunk” | February 20, 2005 – 11:30PM | S01E01

Well, this might be the moment I was dreading most of all. There’s a handful of shows on Adult Swim that I outright hate, but most of them are a flash-in-the-pan. Robot Chicken is the one show that I hate that inexplicably has enough staying power that it’s still fucking on.

I have another thing to contend with here; as I’ve been doing this project I’ve been attempting to rank every episode of every show on a huge list. I don’t know how I’m gonna rank Robot Chicken. My guess is that I’m going to have to include a little note to myself describing the episode-defining sketch and use that as a guide. I’m guessing my Robot Chicken rankings will be basically nonsense. We’ll see.

This episode starts with a sketch with George W. Bush declaring “tacos rule”, Bush is depicted in his “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” flight fatigues, which was a joke lifted from Will Ferrell who mentioned that he wanted to portray the president on Saturday Night Live as having never taken said fatigues off. The concept was rejected and found a home here. It’s maybe the best joke Robot Chicken ever did, and it’s not even theirs. Furthermore, “tacos rule” is more or less a Beavis and Butt-head joke.

There are several iconic Robot Chicken bits in this. I don’t recall ever actually watching this episode before, but I recognized lots of imagery from promos and stuff. Rachel Leigh Cook does a parody of her own PSA where she trashed a kitchen with a frying pan (itself a sequel to the original 80s “this is your brain on drugs” ad). There’s the one-sided fist-fights sketch, which has some bits that I almost smiled at, including a Max Weinberg-looking business man punching a baby (in a baby carriage) over and over after having stolen some candy from it. Funny enough sight gag.

A favorite target of Robot Chicken is Transformers, so there’s a longish sketch in this about Optimus Prime getting prostate cancer. This has the one gag that I made me let out an audible chuckle; when he passes away (surrounded by loved ones on his death bed) he transforms into a coffin. That’s a joke that’s so good that it shone through whatever it is I hate about this show.

I guess what bothers me the most about Robot Chicken is the same thing that bothers me about bad episodes of Sealab and Harvey Birdman; a lot of unmotivated zaniness. This is a rapid-fire sketch show, so one should sorta give it a little leeway in that regard, and I’d like to think that I do. But there’s other things.

Robot Chicken draws from a particular kiddie pool of references. It’s mostly preoccupied with making fun of boyish childhood totems like Transformers, G.I. Joe, et. al OR very recent popular culture, like mocking MTV programs that were on the air at the time, or making jokes about young celebrities that Seth Green was probably friendly with (and often voiced themselves). The show operated at a deficit with me because while I was roughly the right age to be into Transformers or G.I. Joe... I kinda just wasn’t. I remember having some of those toys, but those shows mostly bored me. I think I figured out I liked comedy primarily over everything else pretty early on. My most cherished childhood program after Sesame Street were reruns of original cast Saturday Night Live. The enthusiasm the Robot Chicken crew showed for He-Man was something I couldn’t relate to, even though I watched plenty of He-Man in my youth... I just didn’t really care for it much. It’s like, I get all these references but I just don’t give a shit.

The flagship sketch at the end is a blooper show, which is just a framework for more Robot Chicken-esque short sketches showing crazy stop-motion sight-gags. There’s a corky reference, which seems really out of left field. I sorta braced myself for a good old fashioned problematic chuckle, but the gag here was just a retarded guy saying he went doodoo in his pants. I’m of an age where my classmates in school would make Corky references, and this seemed like they just cribbed that joke from my 2nd grade recess. It was simultaneously too tasteless and not tasteless enough. A prime example of Robot Chicken’s stunning mediocrity.

The show ends with the blooper presenter hanging himself for no apparent reason. I immediately pictured a similar gag happening on The Eric Andre Show, and how I’d probably laugh at something like that if he did it. Robot Chicken just comes off as boyish and simplistic to me. It also seems so satisfied with itself all the time. Every joke is told in this smarmy way, which sucks when almost every sketch is “TV SHOW YOU REMEMBER, BUT THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN HAPPENS!” Is it a children’s program? some demons show up and start beheading people. Is it is a scary horror movie with monsters in it? Well, they’re having a tea party! Hell, here we see C-Span infused with MTV’S Total Request Live, and that’s not a bad concept, really, and I guess it didn’t outstay it’s welcome or anything, but I didn’t laugh.

Lucky for me, there’s more episodes of this show per season than any other show on the block. Ugh.

CONTACTING GHOST PLANET

Space Ghost Coast to Coast #1: “Spanish Translation” | April 15, 1994 | S01E01

Alright, I figured that reviewing Robot Chicken would be such a chore that I decided to start tackling Space Ghost along with it as a special treat. I may consciously keep these kinda shorter in the future, but this is the first Space Ghost episode and you know that is special.

The first episode of Space Ghost I ever saw was the short on The Mask VHS tape. I had a cousin who lived on the outskirts of town and had a different cable system that had Cartoon Network, so staying over on the weekends was my only shot at ever watching Space Ghost on TV. By the time Cartoon Network was added to our family’s cable package it was during it’s final Cartoon Network season, and before Adult Swim was announced it didn’t seem like it was ever coming back for new episodes. I taped as many of them as I could, fearing for the worst.

The early episodes of Space Ghost I tend to soft sell to people looking into getting into the show. They typically carry a warning of not being “as good”, usually followed up with an explanation that the show started out as crude filler and didn’t really become GREAT or fully-formed until a few years later. In fact, this is one of the rare shows that I think gets incrementally funnier as it goes along. The biggest single thing to point out in that regard is the performances. In these early episodes the cast is just mimicking the voice actors they inherited the roles from. It wasn’t until later that George Lowe adopted a more relaxed, “basically just doing his own voice” approach to Space Ghost, a huge breakthrough in the show’s comedic style.

Incredibly enough, there’s a lot of elements already in place in this installment that would be present in some of the better episodes of the show. There’s awkward comedy (the first joke of the show is basically Space Ghost realizing he’s standing on the wronger marker and apologizing to the crew; it’s so brief you might even miss it), there’s the use awkward interview footage where the subject has their guard down (here we’re treated to a few seconds of Susan Powter finishing a salad before her interview), odd, subtle editing (there’s a bit here where Susan Powter is complementing Space Ghost’s power bands and the editors have punctuated her slightly odd blinking with little cartoon sound effects; a gag I missed until this most recent watch). There’s also an absurdist concept running through the show; every few minutes the show pauses so it can translate certain phrases into Spanish as though this episode were intended to be an educational tool. It is not explained why.

Here some things that stuck out on the opposite side of the spectrum: Brak and Sisto appear here as a parody of Beavis and Butt-head. This is coming off a barrage of Gen-X style references. I feel like Space Ghost usually had a lot of references of a certain age baked into it, but here it’s just blatant. There’s also a little gag in a fake commercial for Zorak and Moltar singing lullabies on compact disc; the final song is called “If you see kay, tell her I called” which is a sly adult-style reference to future-rapist-thug Louis C.K.

My Immortal...but make it Pride and Prejudice

For my final project, I decided to rewrite My Immortal (the infamous fanfiction) as if the original author were writing a Pride and Prejudice fanfiction instead of a Harry Potter one! I do not own My Immortal nor do I own Pride and Prejudice! Basically none of this is my original text, all credit goes to Tara Gilesbie and Jane Austen.

Hi my name is Lizzy Dark’ness Dementia Raven Bennet and I have long curly brown hair with purple streaks and red tips that reaches my mid-back and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like Amy Lee (AN: if u don’t know who she is get da hell out of here!). I’m a vampire but my teeth are straight and white. I have pale white skin. I live in a town called Longbourn with my parents, my three younger sisters, and one older sister (I’m twenty). I’m a goth (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly black. For example today I was wearing a black corset with matching lace around it and a black leather miniskirt, pink fishnets and black combat boots. I was wearing black lipstick, white foundation, black eyeliner and red eye shadow. I was walking outside Longbourn. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, which I was very happy about. A lot of preps stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.

“Hey Lizzy!” shouted a voice. I looked up. It was…. Fitzwilliam Darcy!

“What’s up Mr. Darcy?” I asked.

“Nothing.” he said shyly.

But then, I heard my sisters call me and I had to go away.

The next day I woke up in my bedroom. It was snowing and raining again. I opened the door of my coffin and drank some blood from a bottle I had. My coffin was black ebony and inside it was hot pink velvet with black lace on the ends. I got out of my coffin and took of my giant MCR t-shirt which I used for pajamas. Instead, I put on a black leather dress, a pentagram necklace, combat boots and black fishnets on. I put on four pairs of earrings in my pierced ears, and put my hair in a kind of messy bun.

My sister, Jane (AN: Raven dis is u!) woke up then and grinned at me. She flipped her long waist-length blond hair with pink streaks and opened her forest-green eyes. She put on her Marilyn Manson t-shirt with a black mini, fishnets and pointy high-heeled boots. We put on our makeup (black lipstick white foundation and black eyeliner.)

“OMFG, I saw you talking to Mr. Darcy yesterday! Did you know he has ten thousand a year?!” she said excitedly.

“Yeah? So?” I said, blushing.

“Do you like Mr. Darcy?” she asked as we left our shared bedroom and went downstairs.

“No I so fucking don’t!” I shouted.

“Yeah right!” she exclaimed. Just then, Mr. Darcy knocked on the door! One of the servants opened the door and he  walked up to me.

“Hi.” he said.

“Hi.” I replied flirtily.

“Guess what.” he said.

“What?” I asked.

“Well, Charles Bingley and I are hosting a ball at Netherfield Park” he told me.

“Oh. My. Fucking. God!” I screamed. I love going to balls!. Dancing is my favorite thing to do, besides reading or walking or drinking blood.

“Well…. do you want to go with me?” he asked.

I gasped.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

On the night of the ball I put on my black lace-up boots with high heels. Underneath them were ripped red fishnets. Then I put on a black leather minidress with all this corset stuff on the back and front. I put on matching fishnet on my arms. I straightened my hair and made it look all spiky. I felt a little depressed then, so I slit one of my wrists. I read a depressing book while I waited for it to stop bleeding. I painted my nails black and put on TONS of black eyeliner. Then I put on some black lipstick. I didn’t put on foundation because I was pale anyway. I drank some human blood so I was ready to go to the ball.

I went outside. Mr. Darcy was waiting there in front of his carriage. He was wearing a his normal fancy clothes and a little eyeliner (AN: A lot fo kewl boiz wer it ok!).

“Hi Mr. Darcy!” I said in a depressed voice.

“Hi Lizzy.” he said back. We walked into hisblack carriage and drove to NetherfieldWhen we got there, we both hopped out of the carriage. We went to the dance floor and danced together.

“That violinist is so fucking hot.” I said to Mr. Darcy, pointing to him as he played, filling the room with his amazing music.

Suddenly Mr. Darcy looked sad.

“What’s wrong?” I asked as we moshed to the music. Then I caught on.

“Hey, it’s ok I don’t like him better than YOU!” I said.

“Really?” asked Mr. Darcy sensitively and he put his arm around me all protective.

“Really.” I said. “Besides I don’t even know him and he’s not even rich.” I said disgustedly.

The night went on really well, and I had a great time. So did Mr. Darcy. After the ball, we drank some wine Mr. Darcy and I crawled back into the carriage, but Mr. Darcy didn’t go back to Longbourn, instead he drove the carriage into……………………… the forest!

“MR. DARCY!” I shouted. “What the fuck do you think you are doing?”

Darcy didn’t answer but he stopped the flying car and he walked out of it. I walked out of it too, curiously.

“What the fucking hell?” I asked angrily.

“Lizzy?” he asked.

“What?” I snapped.

Mr. Darcy leaned in extra-close and I looked into his gothic red eyes (he was wearing color contacts) which revealed so much depressing sorrow and evilness and then suddenly I didn’t feel mad anymore.

And then…………… suddenly just as I Mr. Dacry kissed me passionately. Darcy climbed on top of me and we started to make out keenly against a tree. He took of my top and I took of his clothes. I even took of my bra. Then he put his thingie into my you-know-what and we did it for the first time.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! ” I screamed. I was beginning to get an orgasm. We started to kiss everywhere and my pale body became all warm. And then….

The next day I woke up in my coffin. I put on a black miniskirt that was all ripped around the end and a matching top with red skulls all over it and high heeled boots that were black. I put on two pairs of skull earrings, and two crosses in my ears. I spray-painted my hair with purple.

In the breakfast room, I ate some Count Chocula cereal with blood instead of milk, and a glass of red blood. Suddenly someone bumped into me. All the blood spilled over my top.

“Bastard!” I shouted angrily. I regretted saying it when I looked up cause I was looking into the pale white face of a gothic boy with spiky black hair with red streaks in it. He was wearing so much eyeliner that I was going down his face and he was wearing black lipstick. He was wearing red contact lenses just like Mr Darcy’s. He had a manly stubble on his chin. He had a sexy English accent. He looked exactly like Joel Madden. He was so sexy that my body went all hot when I saw him kind of like an erection only I’m a girl so I didn’t get one you sicko. He was here with some other officers to visit my sister, Lydia.

“I’m so sorry.” he said in a shy voice.

“That’s all right. What’s your name?” I questioned.

“My name’s George Wickham, although most people call me Vampire these days.” he grumbled.

“Why?” I exclaimed.

“Because I love the taste of human blood.” he giggled.

“Well, I am a vampire.” I confessed.

“Really?” he whimpered.

“Yeah.” I roared.

We sat down to talk for a while. Then Mr. Darcy came up behind me and told me he had a surprise for me so I went away with him.

I was trying to sleep when suddenly, an horrible woman with beady eyes and wrinkly skin and everything started knocking on the door! She was wearing all black but it was obvious she wasn’t gothic. It was…… Lady Catherine de Bourgh!

“No!” I shouted in a scared voice but then Lady Catherine grabbed my arm and I couldn’t run away.

“Let me go!” I shouted at her and scratched her arm. Lady Catherine fell on her but and started to scream. I felt bad for her even though I’m a sadist so I stopped.

“Lizzy.” she yelled. “Thou must not marry Fitzwilliam Darcy!”

I thought about Mr. Darcy and his sexah eyes and his black hair. I remembered that Mr. Wickham had said that Mr. Darcy was evel, but he told me himself it was all Wickham’s fault!

“No! Please!” I begged.

“Thou must!” she yelled. “If thou does not, then I shall tell everyone about how Lydia and Wickhma had sex before marriage !”

“How did you know?” I asked in a surprised way.

Lay Catherine got a dude-ur-so-retarded look on her face. “Everyone thinks that already.” she answered cruelly. “And if you doth marry Darcy, then thou know what will happen to your sister!” she shouted. Then she ran away angrily.

I was so scared and mad I didn’t know what to do. Suddenly Dracy came into the house.

“Mr. Darcy!” I said. “Hi!”

“Hi.” he said back but his face was all sad. He was wearing white foundation and messy eyeliner kind of like a pentagram (geddit) between Joel Madden and Gerard Way.

“Are you okay?” I asked.

“No.” he answered.

“I’m sorry I got all mad at you but I thought you were mean to Mr. Wickham.” I expelled.

“That’s okay.” he said all depressed “Will you mary me?”

“Yes!!” i said exitedly and we went back into Longbourn together making out.

FLASHBack: Week 33 [First Class FLASHBack] - Weird Al’s Official Flash Animated Music Videos

Thomas Lee, who had made the video for the Star Wars Gangsta Rap, discussed in last week's FLASHBack, was asked to make a video for I'll Sue You, Al's "Style Parody" of Rage Against The Machine.

David Lovelace, the mind behind the Newgrounds series, Retarded Animal Babies, was tapped by Al to make Virus Alert, which was another style parody, this one of the band The Sparks (who regular FLASHBack readers may recall had a keyboardist, Ron Mael, who was the direct inspiration for the look of Roscoe Thunderpants from the Flash-only band Savlonic).

Ren & Stimpy creator and general garbage human being John Kricfalusi was brought in to animate Close But No Cigar, his first time animating in Flash. As with the others this one doesn't parody any specific song, but is instead Al's style parody of the band Cake.

Digital Entertainment company JibJab was hired to apply their animated photocollage style of Flash to Al's Do I Creep You Out?, which finally is an actual direct song parody, in this case of Taylor Hicks' "Do I Make You Proud?".

Doug Bressler, from Doogtoons, made the video for Al's 11 minute epic Trapped in the Drive-Thru. This too, is a song parody, of the even more epic 33 Chapter Rap Opera "Trapped in the Closet" by R. Kelly. There are diagrams. Al's version is simpler at only 3 chapters long but he did get to have his own fun with it. Years earlier he had approached Led Zeppelin about doing a polka medley of their songs for his movie UHF. Jimmy Page declined at the time, but when Al asked him if he could use a sample a few seconds of their song Black Dog to use in this song, Page again said no to the sampling, but did give them the green light for Al's own band to re-record a few seconds of the song's instrumentals. Al's band did such a good job, that many just assume that it was a sample.

  Yankovic kept up the practice for his 2011 release Alpocalypse, but this time around the Flash artists he engaged were the kind who were drawing regular paychecks from their work in the medium.

The video for Skipper Dan, a style parody of the band Weezer, and based on DisneyLand & Disneyworld's Magic Kingdom's Jungle Cruise Ride was by Divya Srinivasan who had previously done music videos in Flash for They Might Be Giants, as well as Flash trailers childrens' books she's self authored and illustrated.

The video for CNR, a style parody of The White Stripes, and celebrating comedian and Hollywood Squares fixture Charles Nelson Reilly, was another JibJab collaboration.

The video for Ringtone, Al's style parody of Queen was animated by the Flash artists responsible for SuperNews! on Current TV.

The video for Whatever You Like, a song parody of the T.I. song of the same name, was done for Al in Flash by Cris Shapan, Lead Artist on Cartoon Network Adult Swim's Tom Goes to the Mayor, Art Director on Season 1 of the Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!, and motion graphics designer from seasons 2 & 3 of Yo Gabba Gabba!

The video for Party in the CIA, a parody of Miley Cyrus's "Party in the U.S.A.", was animated by Ghostbot Inc. the same company that had also used Adobe Flash to create the Erin Esurance ad campaign, a campaign which ultimately had to be pulled when Rule 34 of Erin outstripped search hits for the actual company being advertised by a wide margin.

The video for Another Tattoo, Al's spoof of B.o.B.'s "Nothin' on You", was by Augenblick Studios, who had previously worked on Shorties Watchin' Shorties, Wonder Showzen, Superjail!, Ugly Americans, and the occasional short animation for Yo Gabba Gabba!

The video for If That Isn't Love, a style parody of Hanson, was from Flash animator Brian Frisk of FrownHouse, who had also done segments for Comedy Central's Triptank.

The video for Stop Forwarding That Crap to Me is kinetic typography from Dutch graphic artist Koos Dekker, who unlike the others on this list I can't actually find anything that confirms that this one was actually done in Flash. But I'm throwing it in, just in case (I did read somewhere where someone had guessed that it had been done in Adobe After Effects, so that's gotta count for something.) This song is Yankovic's love letter to producer & songwriter Jim Steinman. Steinman, a long time collaborator with Meat Loaf (and who Meat Loaf describes as "one weird dude") has an immediately recognizable sound even if he's not a household name. He primarily is the songwriter for Meat Loaf's Bat Out of Hell and Bat Of Hell II, but he also wrote Air Supply's "Making Love Out of Nothing at All", Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart" & "Holding Out For A Hero" and Celine Dion's "It's All Coming Back To Me Now". His musical stylings are ripe for parody, and Al hits it out of the park with this one.

  That's it for this week. Next week, something simple. Maybe some stick figures that aren't from Madness Combat.

[inbonobo]

If #copyright was shorter, #PublicDomain #recordings would have been duplicated and preserved; In a #secret report in 2009, #UniversalMusicGroup estimated the loss at about 500,000 song titles. #ip #intellectualproperty

The lost works most likely included masters in the Decca Records collection by Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Al Jolson, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald and Judy Garland. The fire probably also claimed some of Chuck Berry’s greatest recordings, produced for Chess Records, as well as the masters of some of Aretha Franklin’s first appearances on record.

Almost of all of Buddy Holly’s masters were lost, as were most of John Coltrane’s masters in the Impulse Records collection. The fire also claimed numerous hit singles, likely including Bill Haley and His Comets’ “Rock Around the Clock,” Etta James’s “At Last” and the Kingsmen’s “Louie Louie.”

The list of artists affected spans decades of popular music. It includes recordings by Ray Charles, B.B. King, the Four Tops, Joan Baez, Neil Diamond, Sonny and Cher, Joni Mitchell, Cat Stevens, Gladys Knight and the Pips, Al Green, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Buffett, the Eagles, Aerosmith, Rufus and Chaka Khan, Barry White, Patti LaBelle, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the Police, Sting, Steve Earle, R.E.M., Janet Jackson, Guns N’ Roses, Mary J. Blige, No Doubt, Nine Inch Nails, Snoop Dogg, Nirvana, Beck, Sheryl Crow, Tupac Shakur, Eminem, 50 Cent and the Roots.

What happened?

The fire started in the early hours of June 1, 2008.

Overnight, maintenance workers had used blowtorches to repair the roof of a building on the set of New England Street, a group of colonial-style buildings used in scenes for movies and television shows. The workers followed protocol and waited for the shingles they worked on to cool, but the fire broke out soon after they left, just before 5 a.m.

The flames eventually reached Building 6197, known as the video vault, which housed videotapes, film reels and, crucially, a library of master sound recordings owned by Universal Music Group.

Hundreds of firefighters responded to the fire. After trying to douse it with foam retardant and water from a nearby lake, emergency personnel decided to dismantle the warehouse containing the vault to more easily put out the fire.

What are master recordings, and why do they matter?

A master recording is the one-of-a-kind original recording of a piece of music. It’s the source from which other vinyl records, CDs, MP3s and all other recordings are made.

According to the article, documents show that the vault contained masters dating back decades, including multitrack recordings on which individual instruments remained isolated from one another. There were also session masters, including recordings that had never been commercially released. The recordings within the vault came from to some of the most important record labels of all time.

Audiophiles and audio professionals view such recordings with special regard.

“A master is the truest capture of a piece of recorded music,” Adam Block, the former president of Legacy Recordings, Sony Music Entertainment’s catalog arm, told the magazine. “Sonically, masters can be stunning in their capturing of an event in time. Every copy thereafter is a sonic step away.”

Why are we only finding about this now?

At the time, the fire made news around the world, and the vault featured heavily in that coverage. But most articles focused only on the video recordings in the archive and, even then, news outlets largely characterized the disaster as a crisis averted.

Jody Rosen, the writer of the article, described the successful effort to play down the scope of the loss as a “triumph of crisis management” that involved officials working for Universal Music Group on both coasts. Those efforts were undoubtedly aimed at minimizing public embarrassment, but some suggest the company was also particularly worried about a backlash from artists and artist estates whose master recordings had been destroyed.

The real extent of the loss was laid out in litigation and company documents obtained by Mr. Rosen, a contributing writer for the magazine.

How bad is the loss?

Mr. Rosen described the loss as historic, and even Universal Music Group itself — privately — viewed what happened in bleak terms: “Lost in the fire was, undoubtedly, a huge musical heritage,” reads one 2009 internal assessment.

Record companies have had a troubled history with such recordings and have been known to trash them in bulk. Decades ago, employees of CBS Records reportedly took power saws to multitrack masters to sell the reels as scrap metal. In the 1970s, RCA destroyed masters by Elvis Presley in a broader purge.

Because of that history, industry professionals have long questioned how committed the major music labels are to preserving what they see as priceless artifacts.

Today, most commercial recordings from the past century and beyond are controlled by only three giant record companies: Sony Music Entertainment, Warner Music Group and, of course, Universal Music Group.

It's used in such factors as road manufacturing, road and pavement sealing layers, cosmetics, shampoos and prescription drugs.

Ways to revealed to cause anaphylactic shock and severe sensitized reactions in some people. Different dyes used instead associated with organic #4 are artificial options such as: green #40 plus red #2. These are derived from oil production. My guidance, continue to keep this garbage away through the body as much while you can. We often wonder why that even while we are more computer advanced than any some other time in historical past, humans will also be more ill and unhealthy than virtually any other time in record. To me it's because simple as day. This will be items that I've truly mentioned and the thousands of other food ingredients, flavors, colors and preservatives that our leaders enable manufacturers to add to the particular foods people feed on that is helping to bring about health issues world wide. Thus it really is for you to decide. As Hippocrates said centuries ago: "Let foods be thy medicine and treatments be thy food" Thus be smart and select your food sensibly.
