Security Breach at Newark Airport

This is what constitutes an airport emergency these days.

Some guy walks through the wrong door, and the entire airport is shut down, people are hauled off planes, everyone is forced to go back through the screening process, flights are cancelled, passengers are panicked, and the entire air transportation system goes into cardiac arrest.

Because one guy walked through the wrong door.

Looks like police brutality to me…

Investigation Launched In Videotaped Police Beating

SEATTLE — The Seattle Police Department launched an investigation into an arrest earlier this year in which three officers are seen on camera using their fists, batons and a flashlight to subdue a man they said was resisting arrest.

Police said Daniel Saunders was mistakenly released from the King County Jail. Officers were going to arrest Saunders when they learned he was attempting to collect property in the evidence room on June 6….

Harlan Ellison, 1982

Blast from the past: Harlan Ellison: author, litigious curmudgeon, über-nerd, 1982. I was frequenting cons when 90% of the attendees looked like this. Via Pip R. Lagenta’s photostream.

I think it’s the glasses plus the Donahue Hairdo, with just a suggestion of grease therein that makes the look.  The mock turtle helps, as well. And he’s got that flared nostril, fart-smellin’ sort of look on his face to complete the image.

Speaking of farts and SF symposia, I sampled many  varieties of butt-gas in those halcyon days. It was a distinguishing characteristic of cons; kind of a generalized farty-assy smell blended with musty pulp paperback and stale coffee. I think it was mostly the work of the 13-something set, dropping sliders as they schlupped around the hotel.

World War One, Personified

The Great War, by Keith Thompson.

The Great War, by Keith Thompson

Click on the thumbnail to view Keith Thompson’s “The Great War” – a “caricature map” which personifies the European nations involved in WWI and an illustration from Scott Westerfield’s Leviathan. Study if for a few minutes, ponder what the significance of the chosen caricatures might be, and then read a description of the map, here.

After that you might want to check out the entirety of Keith Thompson’s website.

The Sleeping Giant Has Awakened*

Beck has a red neck, and if I had a
poisoned pen,
I’d give it to him
in the neck (figuratively, or literally).
But the power of the pen
Is a has-been.
Inside, outside, the mob
grows stronger.
Pious pricks grow longer.
Fundamental balls grow bigger.
They preach right and might,
by soundbyte,
and boy, do they ever
hate that nigger.
——
*For Glen Beck and his most ardent followers on the occasion of Beck’s receipt of the key to Mount Vernon, Washington, September 26, 2009. Written in a moment of despair.
