The I wasn't expecting to like it but might have to change my mind new album of the week is Synthia by the Jezabels. Hints of Kate Bush, Shakespear's Sister and a slightly less gloomy than usual Lana Del Rey?

With the sound (noise) turned completely off, one can enjoy the very well done (hand drawn ?) video animation. The voice seems to be half Gaga, half Lana del Rey.

That's funny. I was just picturing a horse falling through a scaffold and impaling itself on a large splinter of wood then bleeding to death on camera when I thought to go to the CP Lounge and check out the latest posts!
Thanks Bill! It must have been this thread!

Good idea... Just make sure you stay well ahead of the FCC or equivalent - they won't be happy if they find out...
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Actually, Apple claims that it's a feature - not a bug...

Apparently, you can recover just by letting the battery run out, so not really "bricked"...

Sure about that? What is the difference between "letting the battery run out" and "remove the batt" and "cold start"? ... uups just come into to my mind with iPhone there is no Chance to remove batteries.  Maybe this is the Point why I like androids

You can do it, but it's not easy:

Probably easier to take it to an Apple store and get them to replace it.

I always get a bit of a giggle when I read the following:
Why S&P Downgraded the US:
U.S. Tax revenue: $2,170,000,000,000
Federal budget: $3,820,000,000,000
New debt: $ 1,650,000,000,000
National debt: $14,271,000,000,000
Recent [April] budget cut: $ 38,500,000,000
Let’s remove 8 zeros and pretend it’s a household budget:
Annual family income: $21,700
Money the family spent: $38,200
New debt on the credit card: $16,500
Outstanding balance on the credit card: $142,710
Budget cuts: $385

I've been to Spain. They probably thought they were on a Siesta.

Odd thought: suppose we could create an artificial gravity wave by some yet to discover method - could a craft then surf that wave at the speed of light?
Ok, ok, I'll stick with the APOD...
