Not to count the chickens before they hatch, but there’s already rumblings of what’s next in the Democrat strategy if Trumps wins. Apart from the street level riots, it looks like the actual party politicians will try everything to thwart the election and inauguration. We’ve talked about that before, but the article below brought it to my thoughts again. It’s not going to be over the day after the election.
Reminds me, in the history rhyming way, of the aftermath of Lincoln’s election. November, December, and January could be rough times.
The analysis was produced so quickly — a day after landfall — that local weather datasets were not yet updated for the researchers to consult. The team relied instead on existing data histories to estimate how much more more likely, and more intense, rainfall volumes that have a 1% and 10% chance of happening in any given year.
Floridian, Joel Mathis, found one of the creatures climbing up his white fence after Hurricane Milton wrecked havoc on the Southern State.
‘Be very careful picking up debris and/or hand tools that lay in the backyard,’ he wrote to Click Orlando.
‘It doesn’t look like much,’ he said. ‘Keep an eye out for these guys especially after the hurricane if you’re cleaning up things.’
Picking up on comments from SHIREHOME in one of yesterday’s topics. Looks like the Dems are coordinating their scare tactics. Here in Conn-5 (Dem female incumbant), I saw a commercial this morning accusing her Rep opponent of exactly what SHIREHOME mentioned yesterday. Wanting to outlaw abortion and track pregnancies.
Benny Goodman was one of my father’s favorites. That may have been the start of my love for music with great rhythms. It’s nothing terribly special, but the old biopic “The Benny Goodman Story” with Steve Allen is quite good.
You need to listen to Sidney Bechet. I am sure Benny and others listened to him, and learned a thing or two.
Mike Plaiss,
Speaking of historical data sets: This article highlighted by WUWT states that due to systematic errors in ground based temperature observations, that the warming since 1880 has been over stated by about 40%. Not sure that their estimate of the overage is quite correct; I think it may be too high. But it does raise another issue with ground based observations.
Can I just register how much I hate that video and audio have replaced text as the primary means of information transfer online?
You can’t ctrl-F a video or a podcast for the terms you’re looking for, or easily compare one paragraph said later with one said earlier or things said by different people. It’s a goddamned reversion from literacy, and it’s awfully convenient for propagandists of all stripes. England went from 60% literacy in 1860 to over 99% in 1900, and here we are today…
I know there’s automated transcription services, thanks. It’s an open thread, I just wanted to vent. In every middle-aged blog commenter Andy Rooney is fighting to get out.
Evidently retired Gen. Mark Milley fears to be court-martialed should Trump take the Presidency. That’s because Milley knows he committed acts which deserve court-martial. Funny thing.
Back when clarinets and trombones got more respect.
You can hear that as your dad’s or granddad’s music or listen with fresh ears and hear some striking contemporary things in it.

I don’t like having to listen to podcasts or watch clips to get information that could just as easily be presented as text, but reading the “Vogue” article about Harris, I didn’t like having to plod through all the cute and pretentious writing, when an audiovisual presentation would give the experience more directly without authorial intrusion.
My niece was the drum major for her high school band, which, as I understand it, meant that she chose the songs the band played. I was very pleased that one song she chose was Sing, Sing, Sing.
BTW, my niece played the clarinet, just like her mother and her paternal grandfather.
Was it Kruppa’s coke that was found in the White House?
Greatest klezmer band ever.

physicsguy:
I’ve caught those rumblings too and I’m sure they are true.
Whether they will be successful is hard to say. All the anti-Trump lawfare has come to naught. (I don’t believe Jack Smith’s latest bid will succeed.)
But if the Democrats, Deep State, Oligarchs and Davos types find themselves staring at the prospect of a President Donald J. Trump taking office on January 20, 2025 and likely decapitating the top levels of all the alphabet agencies (I hope), I truly do not know what they might do.
General “White Rage” Miley courtmarshalled; one can hope. Convicted, stripped of his military pension, and Levinworth too; one can hope.
“Sing, Sing, Sing” is one of my favorite big-band numbers! My son was in a swing band when he was in high school back around the year 2000, and this was one of the pieces they played. He played trumpet and sang with this band, which was not a school band–just a bunch of guys and gals who got together to perform! They had some gigs at local festivals. My son had to quit when he was in college (engineering major), but the band actually went on for about 20 years or so.
My 98-year-old mom and I often listen to the 40’s channel on Sirius XM when I am driving her around–she never learned to drive–and we really enjoy that big band sound! She remembers going to see Frank Sinatra and the Tommy Dorsey band when she was a teenager–it cost her only a quarter because it was the matinee!
Thanks for posting this video!
J:
“Sing, Sing, Sing” is such a tame title for this piece. I danced it back in the 90s swing revival. I was sure it was something about Africa or the jungle — what with those elephant-like shrieks.
And I wouldn’t have thought it was mostly Benny and buncha white boys playing either.
Not that there is anything wrong with that!
Another great clarinetist was Tassos Chalkias from Epirus.
Goodman was much impressed with Chalkias’ mastery of the instrument. It is reported that Tassos taught Benny how to play the low notes characteristic of Ipeirotika klarino
Whoah! Tucker interviews Harmeet Dhillon about the 20 years Harmeet and Kamala both worked in the San Francisco legal system. I haven’t listened to the recording yet. I don’t except Harmeet to say anything very positive about Kamala, but I do think that she is an honest person.
US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin authorized the deployment of a Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) battery in Israel, along with American military personnel to operate it … The move came at the behest of US President Joe Biden…
What is the THAAD system?
The THAAD system is considered the middle tier of the US ballistic missile defense and is a mobile system that “fires a hit-to-kill interceptor capable of defeating ballistic missiles inside and outside of the atmosphere,” the FDD noted.

“Saturday Night Live” (SNL) mocked Vice President Kamala Harris again on Saturday during a “Family Feud Election 2024” skit that took aim at the Democratic presidential candidate’s interview responses and her stories about her background and growing up in a middle-class family.
Ladies and Gentlemen, the tide has changed. SNL realizes Kamala is going to lose. SNL is working to preserve its credibility.
I sense a Disturbance in the Force — a preference cascade.
I have been enthralled by Benny Goodman’s Sing Sing Sing ever since I first heard it as a teenager in high school (early 70s). Swing was long out of popular fashion even then, but the rhythms in this song were amazing and I was hooked by it for life. It became my gateway drug for other swing bands from the 30s and 40s.
However, I realized within the first 30 seconds that this wasn’t the original full Benny Goodman 1937 recording. That recording was over 8 minutes long. This one is less than 6 minutes and has some slight differences in phrasing (some phrases repeat such as the intro drum solo, others have been reduced or deleted). It is, however, a worthy arrangement and performance. Is this an alternate Benny Goodman recording or a sophisticated re-edit of the original source? If not, does anyone know which band did this version and when?
