Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Bozeman drops password requirement

The City of Bozeman has decided it will no longer ask job applicants for social networking user names and passwords following a worldwide outrage to the hiring policy.

"Effective at noon today, the City of Bozeman permanently ceased the practice of requesting that candidates selected for positions under a provisional job offer to provide their user names or passwords for candidates Internet sites," Bozeman City Manager Chris Kukulski said Friday.

Following a 90-minute staff meeting held Friday morning, officials decided asking applicants to provide their passwords to sites such as Facebook or MySpace "exceeded that which is acceptable to our community," according to Kukulski.

Kukulski also apologized for the negative impact the issue has generated from news organizations and blogs around the world. He added that the information was never required at the time of application.

White Knight II is one weird-looking airplane: [link]

It makes me think of the P-82 fighter.

There was a German airplane like that too. I think the He 111Z.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

How sad. Although Kodak here in Rochester is pretty much decimated anyway.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Sadly, but not unexpectedly, my drive to work did nothing to make me not hate everyone.

Heh. I was going to google to find that plane, but I went and got coffee instead.

Which one? The P-82 was designed for very long range bomber escort, so one pilot could take a nap while the other flew. The White Knight II is configured that way so it can carry the rocket space plane under its wing center section.
