night has fallen... i checked SyFy... it's Skyfall (bond movie) which doesn't seem like SciFi to me... and it's not in Spanish but has the blind assist thing on...

i dunno what that means... i guess blind assist is probably turned on globally, but few programs use it so i haven't noticed? if rare, seems weird that Skyfall would be one of the ones that does though...

and why spanish Futurama...

(there's a lot more stuff for this blind assist guy to have to describe in an action movie than a sitcom :p...)

aha! i found it (actually i hadn't tried too hard before besides clicking every button)... but found it 3 settings menu clicks deep in 'audio settings'... for some reason "Descriptive Video Service" was on (which is the blind thing) & when it's on, "Espanol" is the default "Audio Track" & you can't change it... but if you turn blind off you can change the espanol thing...

not sure why i didn't hit more spanish, but anyway, it's resolved... and i guess blind people are spanish

i am intrigued at how ridiculously detailed the blind assist guy was being at every single thing that happened onscreen in Skyfall so at least something mildly interesting came of it all

lol. The blind assist is such a bazaar thing to me. It just requires a lot of layers to be able to enjoy a movie being described... like knowing about the consequence of bullets without having seen a firearm or seen the aftermath of its usage. It's much easier to understand for blind people who weren't always blind, though, which apparently accounts for most blind people (a quick Google says that about 81% of the blind only went blind after about age 50). Much much easier :p
Did you watch all of Skyfall as it was described anyways? :D

Interesting study:
"Report Finds Poor Often Hit Hardest By 18-Wheelers"
[Onion: News in Brief]
http://www...dest-by-18-wheelers-1828714927
"“The economically disadvantaged face a great variety of challenges, but sometimes the single factor having the greatest impact on individuals earning less than $20,000 per year is a semi failing to stop and plowing into them as they attempt to cross the street,” said Brookings senior research fellow Tim Brownridge, adding that members of households living at or below the poverty line are typically unprepared to survive the full force of a tractor trailer barreling down the highway at 75 miles per hour. “Without exception, every person in this income bracket has a hard time recovering from a direct hit by a 40-ton big rig. The severe mark left on a financially struggling family of four by a fast-moving Peterbilt or Freightliner simply cannot be overstated.” The report follows a parallel study published last week that found the top 1 percent of American earners are often hit hardest by their own helicopter’s rotor blades."

RETIRED HUSBAND

After I retired, my wife insisted that I accompany her on her trips to Wal-Mart.

like most men, I found shopping boring and preferred to get in and get out.

my wife is like most women - loves to browse & leaves me with endless time to fulfill.

Yesterday my dear wife received the following letter,
from the local Wal-Mart

Dear Mrs. Harris:

Over the past six months, your husband has caused quite a commotion, in our store.

We cannot tolerate this behavior and have been forced to, ban both of you from the store.

Our complaints against your husband, Mr. Harris, are listed below and are documented by our video surveillance cameras:

1. June 15: He took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in other people's carts when they weren't looking.

2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in Housewares to go off at 5-minute intervals.

3. July 7: He made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the women's restroom.

4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official voice,
'Code 3 in House wares. Get on it right away'.
This caused the employee to leave her assigned station and receive a reprimand from her Supervisor that in turn resulted with a union grievance, causing management to lose time; and costing the company money. We don't have a Code 3.

5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and tried to put a bag of M&Ms on layaway.

6. August 14: Moved a, 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.

7. August 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told the children shoppers he'd invite them in if they would bring pillows and blankets from the bedding department to which twenty children obliged.

8. August 23: When a clerk asked if they could help him he began crying and screamed, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'
EMTs were called.

9. September 4: Looked right into the security camera and used it as a mirror while he picked his nose.

10. September 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, he asked the clerk where the antidepressants were.

11. October 3: Darted around the store suspiciously while, loudly humming the, 'Mission Impossible' theme.

12. October 6: In the auto department, he practiced his, 'Madonna Look' using different sizes of funnels.

13. October 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browsed through, yelled 'PICK ME! PICK ME!'

14. October 22: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed a fetal position and screamed;

'OH NO! IT'S THOSE VOICES AGAIN!'

15. Took a box of condoms to the checkout clerk and asked where is the fitting room?

And last, but not least:

16. October 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile; then yelled very loudly, 'Hey! There's no toilet paper in here.'
One of the clerks passed out.

If you don't send this to your dearest friends; You will be depriving them of some good humor.
Enjoy Life - It has an expiry date..

+1 on horrible futures... that’s when even sleep is just a commodity... there’s not much comfort in living. Kind of why living in NYC seems like a terrible idea to me... all struggle, no/tiny reward. People already living in vans all over the U.S... so there’s an equivalent

Trucker cat definitely a highlight :D
There’s a guy around her who rides his bike with his cat (I think I’ve mentioned it when those pet+bike/scooter videos pop up).. must be nice to travel with a cat. Pretty sure we’ve discussed this, but most house cats freak out at high speed travel motion, but maybe it’d be okay if they got used to it as kittens? I wants it :’(

A man in Arizona is facing felony sex abuse charges after he allegedly faked Down syndrome and tricked a series of female caregivers into bathing him and changing his soiled diapers.

Police in Gilbert arrested 31-year-old Paul Anthony Menchaca on Sept. 6 at his home. He was charged with three counts of felony sexual abuse and one charge of fraudulent schemes.

Authorities said Menchaca posed as a woman named “Amy” who advertised for a caregiver to bathe and change the diapers of an adult son with Down syndrome.

Three women responded to the ad. Each told police that Menchaca would become sexually aroused as he was being bathed.

At one point, the first victim became suspicious and contacted Menchaca’s parents. They told the woman that their son did not have Down syndrome or need diapers.

"Ted Cruz Attempts To Connect With Voters By Wearing More Handsome Man’s Face As Mask"
[Onion: News in Brief]
http://pol...ters-by-wearing-mor-1829151503
"DALLAS—In an effort to make himself more appealing to voters, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) reportedly tried to connect with the audience at a candidate forum Tuesday by wearing the bloody, skinned face of a far more handsome man as a mask. “People are really responding to this new, dapper Ted Cruz,” said campaign manager Jeff Roe, noting that recent internal polls show that since Cruz adopted the new look, voters are twice as likely to describe the expressionless, gore-covered incumbent as “trustworthy,” “affable,” or “charming.” “That rough-cut mask of rotting skin is doing wonders for the senator on the campaign trail. He’s honestly never looked better, and the voters are really beginning to take notice. Even with the stench of decomposition, most people we talk to remark upon how Sen. Cruz doesn’t make them feel as nauseous as he used to. He’s looking a lot healthier, too.” Roe later confirmed that while Cruz’s current mask was rapidly decaying, the candidate had a freezer filled with enough handsome and blood-encrusted masks of human skin to last him through the campaign’s final stretch."

A Colorado man was arrested on Friday after allegedly leaving the trail at Yellowstone National Park, approaching the Old Faithful geyser and then appearing to urinate or attempt to urinate into it.

Gabriel Villalva, 27, was caught on video at the edge of the geyser. A park ranger could be heard yelling at him to return to the boardwalk, where tourists are required to remain while visiting the geyser. Villalva largely ignored the commands, stood before the rim, and at one point appeared to urinate.

Of course it is, it's just a screen protector. The point is, how do people live with cracked screens?

Who doesn't have a smart phone?

possibly a publicity stunt... on the other hand they have many other similar $500 pre-dirtied sneakers, just without the tape

...plus the fashion industry is ridiculous in general :p

Rigged/rehearsed.

You out a cat in a box like that and it'll do one of two things: jump out or sleep

but they weren't cats, they were kittens!

it does seem odd the kitten appeared to make no mistakes (although not a huge number of wrong turns)... on the other hand, still visually interesting whether it knew the path or not

An Indiana man is facing charges after pistol-whipping his lifelong friend during an argument over a Bruno Mars song, police said.

Roger D. Washburn, 71, of Greenwood, was taken into custody late Friday by deputies from the Johnson County Sheriff’s Office after the victim and another man said they were hanging out at Washburn’s home when they started to fight over a song and who performed it.

The victim insisted the track in question was sung by Mars, but Washburn disagreed. That prompted the victim to show Washburn proof that the song was, in fact, part of Mars’ catalog, but instead of defusing the argument, the sound squabble went to another level when Washburn pulled out a .38-caliber revolver, deputies said.

The victim then called Washburn “chickens–t,” leading him to swing his gun at the man, striking him in the face and arm. Washburn’s gun went off twice as he struck the victim and took another swing at him, but no one was shot during the feud about the singer.

The police report does not indicate which Mars song had been playing at the time.

Florida man was arrested Sunday after he threw another man off a bridge into a river just as an officer was passing by.

The Daytona Beach Police Department said that Derrick Goodin, 21, was involved in an argument with a woman over money as she and a friend crossed the bridge over the Halifax River on Sunday. After throwing the woman's bike in the water, the 21-year-old then threw her friend, an unidentified man, over after he got involved in the argument.

In bodycam video released by police, Goodwin can be seen standing with the man before police say he tossed him over. The officer then gets out of the car and tells the 21-year-old to surrender.


Goodin is heard saying "he jumped over the bridge,” before throwing his wallet in the water before he was arrested.

(tossed guy survived)

video where you see a bit of the toss:

Pickaxe-wielding policemen have demolished a semi-submerged art gallery in the Maldives for being "offensive to Islam".

The British-designed installation at the Fairmont Maldives Sirru Fen Fushi resort was destroyed last week after being criticized by religious leaders in the country.

Islam is the official religion of the paradise island chain which is also a popular destination for honeymooners.

The Coralarium was designed by British artist Jason deCaires Taylor and allowed guests at the island hotel to swim from the shore to the underwater gallery.

Outgoing president Abdulla Yameen ordered the removal and destruction of the sculptures, deeming them "idols" which are banned by the religion.

This is despite the statues having no religious meaning whatsoever.

In the evening, a light system illuminated the gallery attracting underwater critters and creating an impressive sight for guests.

Islam has a lot to do with iconoclasm, so any figures or human representations could conceivably be anti-Islam. Add to that that the figures seem to be in aquatic transformation (a Greek and Roman infidel concept of sea gods and people in metamorphoses?), and add that there's a child looking up to an infidel aquatic authority figure in one case, and this makes sense from a certain point of view.. like Anakin's point of view that the Jedi are evil ;D

..
lol@Goodwin's attempts to hide the truth, conceal evidence, and call on witnesses to back him up :D .. I liked the cop's tone too.. like, "Dude... it's on video. That narrative isn't going to fly." Also agree with the comments about the officer showing some good restraint when Goodwin started reaching into his waistband with his back turned. I'm sure that the officer let that happen specifically because of the threat of a media shit show, but it was a good call in this case.. :)

"Dasani Under Fire After Tanker Explosion Leads To Massive Water Spill Off Coast Of Mexico"
[Onion: News in Brief]
http://www...sion-leads-to-massi-1829362402
"“As a result of Dasani’s carelessness, much of the area’s marine life has been left completely soaked,” said local conservationist Tina Devantez, explaining that, while crews were already hard at work using gentle towels to hand-clean affected wildlife, there were still large numbers of local birds and amphibians along the coast that would likely remain drenched for days. “The amount of clean-tasting, filtered water cascading into the ocean is absolutely devastating, and it’s going to affect this habitat for decades. This is the worst spill since the offshore water drilling rig rupture in 1998—shame on Dasani for such a clear disregard for this delicate ecosystem.” At press time, Devantez predicted that the water would continue washing up on shore for months to come."

" “Oh, Christ, what the hell happened last night? What am I doing here?” said the yet-unconfirmed nominee, fighting waves of nausea and massaging his throbbing temples as he attempted to piece together not only how he safely made it home after completely blacking out, but also the series of events that resulted in him graduating from Yale, embarking on a career in law, getting married, buying a house, and starting a family. “The last thing I remember was that I was about to nail that hot shooting guard from the women’s basketball team, and then everything gets kind of hazy. Holy shit, wait—I worked for the Bush administration? I didn’t even know there was a Bush presidency. And apparently Donald Trump is president now, whoever that is. I know I sometimes do crazy shit when I’m fucked up, but this is another level. Jesus—that’s the last time I do shots of Jager.” At press time, Kavanaugh was reportedly attempting to quickly sober up by eating a 17-year-old slice of pizza he had found on the floor of his bedroom."
