Stupidest Possible Answer To A Traffic Jam
>> ^MINK:
the problem here is the stupid road designers who make a big white line down the middle and say you can't cross it, even if your side is totally full and the other is empty.
there would be no traffic jam here if 3 lanes were open to the traffic going in the most popular direction.
You do know that traffic moves in the other direction after work is over, right?
Anderson Cooper Interviews a Federal Prison Consultant
I'd guess that he'll probably wind up in a very low security white collar prison. My brother in law got five years for transporting drugs over the border from Canada. His prison didn't even have a fence. It had a white line painted around the perimiter that nobody was allowed to cross.
Bernie will spend the rest of his life playing softball and covorting with other white-collar criminals, coming up with better ways to increase their gaurd's stock profiles and smuggle in sashimi.
I could be wrong ...
Thanks xxovercastxx! (Blog Entry by campionidelmondo)
A little insight, for anyone who cares...
"Gold 100" became Platinum Star because I just didn't like the way my "100" overlaid on a gold star was looking. Also, I was trying to make these work on any background color and that made maintaining text readability complicated on such a small graphic. If it was larger, I would have outlined the font with a white line or glow to make it legible on a black background, white background, or anything in between. When you're working at 16x16, it gets crowded fast. I decided then to make them all shapes without text.
The contradiction bothered me when I began making "Bronze Diamond", "Silver Diamond", "Gold Diamond". It's a nitpick, to be sure, and it never occurred to me previously but I decided to make gemstones instead. I liked that it let me introduce new colors... with something so small, you can easily have a great variety of color without making the site look like a harlequin's wardrobe closet.
Then it felt odd to me to have 4 stars and only 2 gems (previously diamonds), so I changed the crown into a diamond. I figured a 4th gem could be added later before moving on to a new shape. Maybe then I'd go to crown, but I have to say I like the theme of very simple shapes and the crown disrupts it a little.

Saul Williams - DNA (4:08)
Feel the music
Son, we got you programmed like a beat
When I press snare, yo, guard your grill
Press kick, you move your feet
You can’t compete
I got my hydrants parked on every street
I’m federal, nigga, son of sun
Come close and feel the heat
I am the streets
The white lines only separate me from me
You hydroplane in false gods name and still crash into me
Sign and tree, mountainside, guardrail, into the sea
They thought they stole you from my arms then carried you to me
Here’s the key
DNA encoded in a beat
White rocks in a vial, nigga, ain’t got nuthin’ on me
Bitch I’m free
Ask these editors at MTV
Far as they know they’re publishing some new school poetry
Let it be
‘Cause even that will do to turn the key
Doorways into other worlds
The truth shall set you free
You are me, I am you, but also I am he
Shepherd of a bastard flock that grazes in the streets
Feel the beat, nod your head
Lean back, yo, touch your feet
Let me see you pop that thang right there girl in your seat
Feel the heat
Count this page amongst your whitest sheets
Comfort in my every word
Slide under, countless sheep
Hail Mary, Mother of God
Got the whole host of angels shuffling in my iPod
Niggas learned to raise their voices when I lowered my rod
Staff of Moses, Pharaoh knows this
Son, my word is my bond
Tune my heart with mind
Speak my nature, divine
Callin' shit into existence back in '79
With the future in my pocket tightly gripped like a 9
Keep my finger on the trigger waiting for the right time
Ancient niggas align
Path of Cosmic Design
Blood of kings ‘cause Saturn’s rings don’t need no diamonds to shine
Yes, the reason for the season
Ornamented divine
Coded language of the mystics with my fist in the sky
Keep your head up
We represent The Real, my nigga, dead up
Book of the Dead, history bled
This nigga fed up
Led us to despair, some into prayer, and they won’t let up
until they got us worshipping them false gods instead of
The Realness
God of the streets, my niggas feel this
We nod our heads and worship through beats
Go ahead and kneel
It’s the love that makes the cipher complete
And it’d displayed through the way the bass line marries the beat
Hail Mary, Mother of God
Got the whole host of angels shuffling in my iPod
Niggas learned to raise their voices when I lowered my rod
Staff of Moses, Pharaoh knows this
Son, my word is my bond
Tune my heart with mind
Speak my nature, divine
Callin' shit into existence back in '79
With the future in my pocket tightly gripped like a 9
Keep my finger on the trigger waiting for the right time
Ancient niggas align
Path of Cosmic Design
Blood of kings ‘cause Saturn’s rings don’t need no diamonds to shine
Yes, the reason for the season
Ornamented divine.
Coded language of the mystics with my fist in the sky
Keep your head up
Ship nearly capsizes on launch
I think it's the ballast. Shouldn't that white line be at the water level?
Now THIS is what I call a dangerous intersection!
my attitude to design is: everyone is stupid. make it as foolproof as possible.
in the case of road design that is very very true. there is clearly a simple signage problem or visibility problem or white lines in the wrong place problem.
the only time i was stopped for "bad driving" was at roundabout i had driven before, only they had put new traffic lights in there, and the supports of the flyover above me blocked the view of the lights around the ccorner, so i just drove straight through. No crash, not even a near miss... but there was a police car behind me.
He wrote on his little piece of paper that my excuse was i couldn't see the damn light, and i asked "so will they analyse this and conclude that the light is in the wrong place?"
he said "nah nobody looks at this, we just have to fill in the box somehow. it's a formality."
fucking cops. he was polite, but still, he didn't seem to understand how retarded that procedure was.
I should have asked him "so why did YOU run the red light as well then?"... but you know, i didn't want him to search my car.

The Porn Industry
Wtf? Seriously? *return
Don't be such a sally. Two of the people that wanted Kung fu gone voted for this. There's hardly anything there more than white lines.
Guy Rags on Cops for Parking Illegally
What was so illegal about where they parked? I saw both a parking meter AND white lines painted on the ground. Can someone please explain to me what was wrong with that picture?
The End of the World - George W. Bush remixed into R.E.M.
Brilliant, I love the tweaked lyrics, the smart re-imagining of the music and the chilling clip at the end. That must have taken a while to put together. rx's 'White Lines' is pretty cool too.
Amazing NASA satellite video of Artic Ice Melt
"Im [sic] curious, Nibiyabi, what level of education you have ? You dont [sic] sound like you have much."
A compelling argument, to be sure. Well played, sir. By the by, out of curiosity, what "education" taught you that CO2 causes global warming? It certainly wouldn't be taught by any scientifically-minded university professor, so I'm assuming it was a most compelling documentary created by our most recent Nobel Peace Prize winner. I'll take a college education instead, thanks. I hope your education at St. Mary's Vocational Cement Mixing School of Eastern Pawtucket will allow you to follow your dreams. Anyway, to get it through your thick skull, here's a graph that compares global average temperature (red line) to CO2 emissions (blue line):
http://biocab.org/GWMA-002_op_987x740.jpg
Watch as CO2 emissions dramatically soar (hooray, progress!) while global average temperature is left completely unaffected. By the way, the spike in temperature around 1998 (still not as high as the highest point during the Medieval Warming Period) was caused largely by the mass shutdown of thousands upon thousands of old Soviet weather stations when the new government decided (probably correctly) that, given Russia's dire social and economic circumstances, were better left unfunded. Close thousands upon thousands of weather stations in ice-cold Russia and you will get a rise in global average temperature.
Now here's a graph that compares the Sun's surface temperature (white line) to global average temperature (red line):

Hmm, bit of a correlation there?
I have a sneaking suspicion that DrPawn won't be making another appearance.
Shaun Of The Dead - White Lines music video
An incredible mashup of Shaun Of The Dead zombie film & Grandmaster Flash - White Lines...It fits beautifully! (here's one of the White Lines references in the film, via a funny dirty-NSFW/clean-Funky comparison clip!)
PoliceAbuse.org - Asking Police For a Complaint Form
They'll say "these guys are out there risking their lives every day to protect you and your freedom." And then ask for donations after you're given a ticket for parking 4 inches over a white line.
If cops want respect, they should do the job responsibly.
