NZ town tormented by Celine Dion 'music battles'

quote:

The battles involve groups of people gathering in an area with their cars, blasting music from sirens more typically used for emergency warnings.

The idea is to play music from the sirens the loudest - and the clearest.

French-Canadian diva Dion has become the artist of choice not only because of her popular emotional ballads, but because much of her music - including Oscar-winning My Heart Will Go On, from 1997 film Titanic - has high treble, NZ website The SpinOff reports.

"Celine Dion is popular because it's such a clear song - so we try to use music that has high treble, is clear and not much bass," Paul Lesoa, one of founders of a group that runs siren battles in Auckland, told the site.

The cars can have anywhere between seven to 10 sirens, with competitions usually held throughout the night. They take weeks to prepare for, as participants source sirens online and solder speakers and amplifiers to frames that sit on cars.

This is nothing new.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groom_of_the_Stool

quote:

The Groom of the Stool was a male servant in the household of the English monarch who was responsible for assisting the king in his toileting needs. It is a matter of some debate as to whether the duties involved cleaning the king's anus, but the groom is known to have been responsible for supplying a bowl, water and towels and also for monitoring the king's diet and bowel movements and liaising with the Royal Doctor about the king's health.

If you read the article, they weren't actually sitting in pee, there was pee on the floor under their seat.

Which they decided was "just water" and therefore okay to put their neck pillow on to soak up. They probably should get a refund, but using their neck pillow as a sponge for the mystery floor liquid is entirely on them.

Apparently almost all living American Bison have some amount of cow DNA in them too, from when their population cratered and the survivors were all in captive herds.

Cows are apparently just really sexy to bison.

A lot of the Elgin Marbles are in reclining poses, it's probably a mistranslation of some word for that.

That or they're saying those lazy-rear end statues need to get themselves back to Greece.

Police identify woman who allegedly smashed plates over OKC restaurant's 'endless shrimp' policy

Authorities say the woman also got into an argument with the restaurant's staff about the policy

OKLAHOMA CITY �

Police have learned the identity of a woman sought in connection with an incident stemming from an "endless shrimp policy" at an Oklahoma City restaurant.

On Monday, the Oklahoma City Police Department posted a picture of a woman they say got into an argument with waitstaff late last week at a restaurant near Memorial and May. Police said the argument was about the restaurant's "endless shrimp" policy that wasn't truly endless.

Police said the woman allegedly smashed plates on the ground and became verbally aggressive with employees, according to police.

When a staff member called 911, a man tried to slap the phone out of her hand, police said. The man and woman then left without paying.

Later on Monday, police said they received a tip leading to the woman's identification. Because she has been identified, KOCO 5 has chosen to remove the woman's picture.

Yar, t'was not a woman. T'was some kind of remorseless eating machine, yarr.

Sounds like a job for Visual Foxpro

My work used a third-party DB that was based in Foxpro up until mid-last year.

This might be shocking but a Foxpro database doesn't work well on a modern system. The database would corrupt itself several times a year, which the vendor blamed on us not disabling new-fangled technologies like "hard drive write caching" on everyone's computer.
