The end of Rice-Boy.
T.O.E, Angel Eye, Calbash (alas we hardly knew ye) and Rice-Boy have ended their adventure. 2 years 1 month and two weeks after the start.
Evan Dahm produced one of the most engaging and beautiful webcomics over the past two years and it has concluded. A moment of silence.........
Ok now, the good news. Rice-Boy is done, but further Overside stories are likely. YAY.

This is a 3rd party question and as such I am looking more for general information than specific help. It has to do with the military's policy on being gay while serving.

I favourited a comment in AskMe that was later deleted. I'm NOT writing this to complain about the deletion, for while I may not agree with it I can understand why it was removed, however the comment was long enough so I can not read all (most) of it on my favorites page and I kind of would like to be able to reread it as I thought it was fairly well written.

Why was showing an exposed female navel considered so taboo in Hollywood films and television shows (and I suppose in culture-in-general), especially in light that cleavage was allowed?

10 (11) interesting/historical recordings.
From List Universe. This site uses the term "Top ten" but as with anything when you talk in absolutes people get pretty ornery, so lets just say here are 11 very interesting sound files, from exorcism to castrato.

I read a book recently where a bottle of wine was opened using some type of tongs, heated charcoal, ice and... a feather.

I know this is a long shot as we are in the land of introverts and it is very last second but: I'm in downtown St. Paul tonight and tomorrow night for a conference, anyone up for something I can walk to from the riverside (knda near the science museum area) after 4:30pm tomorrow (er, today I guess, Thurs)?

Is it worth flagging AskMe questions that seem to have been asked without any attempt by the user to answer the question? They may contain a "legitimate" question, but the user has clearly failed to make the effort prior to posting.
I'm asking not in reaction to a specific post, although there was one recently, but just to know if it's worth the effort, and would such questions be likely to be removed?

Nobel Peace Prize nomination database 1901-1955:
In general the Nobel Peace Prize Committee does not reveal the nominations for the prize, and they ask the nominators not to do so as well. However,
Rush Limbaugh continues the illustrious nomination of people with questionable merit, including Benito Mussolini(1935), Stalin (1945, '48), and you know who else was nominated? Yeah, that's right,
Hitler (1945).

In the Jobs section: it would be nice if closing dates for jobs was a field to be filled in and displayed within the post. Barring that, this is a request for job posters to not post something if the closing date is the very next day, as was the first posting in
this post (imo, even a weeks notice is difficult, but that's more debatable). This applies especially if you have to dig to find the information.

Word Jazz podcast:
Ken Nordine (
wiki) not only has a
blog (of sorts), but is podcasting parts of the ineffable Word Jazz.
The net just got a little cooler.

About 12 years ago the wife and I where driving around Mammoth Cave KY, and there where these small shops that sold shards and chucks of colored glass in many different sizes. The glass was not manifactured for sale, but some byproduct of something or another.

Consider the Marshmallow,
and it’s offspring the
Peep. The marshmallow is said to have originated in Egypt as honey-based candy flavored and thickened with the sap of the root of the
Marsh-
Mallow plant.
Recently marshmallow have caused not
one, but
two deaths by suffocation from playing
Chubby Bunny.
Clearly this is retaliation from the bunny-like Peep, for the atrocities committed upon them in the
name of
research and
narrative! Will we resort to,
guns to solve the struggle? Or just give in and continue our
primative and
snooty and
cutsey and
basic way of flaming, making and eating the confectionary?

Question regarding the new Music section: Current guidelines run along the lines of "Music you have written and/or recorded". I have an album which I helped produce, but did not write/record. I was very much involved in the creation of this album and would like to post an example or two. [MI]
