Detail of Charles Wilson Peale Mordecai Gist 1774 I saw yesterday when my wife Terry Acebo Davis and I were at the DeYoung Museum in SF
Edit to add: I met Lane and Tracy Wurster of North Carolina at a Superchunk show — my first – in 1992 but do not interact much these days so was surprised after posting about Lane somewhat randomly today to learn that the Hurricane thrashing my favorite Hawaiian island has the same name.
Dynamo is a soccer team that is from Kiev Ukraine but played yesterday in Amsterdam Nethlands Ajax where coinkydinky my brother in law and his lovely bride our on holiday. I am watching the 60min highlight version of that UEFA match then will catch up to Mad Bum Lunch in Big Apple.
I think I’ll take a picture capture of Cruyff Stadium from the broadcast and challenge my broin to match in in real life.
But the nidus here is noticing Sydorchuk 5 the midfielder which reminds me of Superchunk my favorite rock band. Sergiy Sydorchuk.
He’s the captain. But its pronounced “see door shook” more than “cider chuck”.
And maybe more obviously is “dynamo v. virgin” by Henry Adams, but I’m afraid to know what Googling “amsterdam + virgin” will yield.
Amsterdam Ajax meanwhile was 3-time European club champions in 1972, 1973, 1974 roughly overlapping with Oakland A’s World Champions of Baseball. And coincidence on the other media portal is or was Little League World Series Idaho v. Barcalona.
Superchunk meanwhile between 1992 and 2018 25 years has i’m guessing 20 albums, plus Mac and Laura have put out roughly another 100 as Merge Records.
“Hyper enough” is the first track on their fifth album 1995 “Here is Where The Strings Come In”.
ok 11 studio albums between 1990 and 2018, plus collections.

And out with soccer highlight.
random addendum to back up something I put on PAW
I might be a little off the mark here so correct me if I’m wrong — and this is based on an article on another local news site — but the 1985 CCS champion Menlo Atherton team featured a game-winning goal by Nacho Navarette who probably still and certainly very recently did a lot of local coaching. I believe I met him in 1993 when he played for the semi-pro Palo Alto Firebirds, who played at Maloney Field at Stanford.
There’s a Jose Nararette who coached or coaches for Palo Alto Soccer club, who played for Canada College and Sac State a couple years earlier who I’m guessing is his brother.
I guess he (Nacho) is being inducted as part of a team and not individually.
There should be a Peninsula Soccer Hall of Fame. Or somebody write “History of Soccer in Palo Alto and vicinity”.
She keeps moet chandon in a tiny cabinet let them eat cake she say just like Marie Antoinette
she say eat dick u hating ass hoe
AND:
when i first heard this is what relatively new but not new new. 1977 or 1980 or so, came out in 1974. Like Imagine Dragon radioactive is now, I guess. Not sure what flick of the light or flick of the wrist is about. Title rings a bell. I would say masturbation. NB I thought “Whole Lot of Rosie” was about a fat girl named Rosie.
Maybe if you call Nicki Minaj “Rosie” she attack you on her twitter.
i’m confusing who trick of the light
also why does Gwen stefani get in tourble dressing like fake indiean but nicki dress as fake farrah.
AndAd: it’s a sorry admission that I see a picture of Nikki Minaj wearing nothing but string of jewels and I think of Craig Baldwin film about Negativland U2 album. Seems my Pepsi is dispepsi.
but
This is the nut graph:
Can’t wait for the exercize video
doesn’t seem real calls to mind Universal studio water parting
apparently I can save this by invoking a popular cow cat
doja cat from south africa
this has me bouncing back to queen but instead of linking to another video i’ll just get on my bike and ride.

In those 10 seconds, Jeff Bezos, the owner and founder of Amazon, made more money than the median employee of Amazon makes in an entire year. An entire year.
Think about that.
Think about how hard that family member has to work for an entire year, the days she or he goes into work sick, or has a sick child, or struggles to buy school supplies or Christmas presents, to make what one man makes in 10 seconds.
According to Time magazine, from January 1 through May 1 of this year, Jeff Bezos saw his wealth increase by $275 million every single day for a total increase in wealth of $33 billion in a four-month period.
Meanwhile, thousands of Amazon employees are forced to rely on food stamps, Medicaid and public housing because their wages are too low. And guess who pays for that? You do. Frankly, I don’t believe that ordinary Americans should be subsidizing the wealthiest person in the world because he pays his employees inadequate wages.
But it gets remarkably more ridiculous: Jeff Bezos has so much money that he says the only way he could possibly spend it all is on space travel.
Space travel. Have you ever heard of such a thing? It is absolutely absurd.
Well here is a radical idea: Instead of attempting to explore Mars or go to the moon, how about Jeff Bezos pays his workers a living wage? How about he improves the working conditions at Amazon warehouses across the country so people stop dying on the job? He can no doubt do that and have billions of dollars left over to spend on anything he wants.
So today, whether or not you use Amazon, I want to ask you to join me in sending a message to Jeff Bezos:
Sign my petition to Jeff Bezos: It is long past time you start to pay your workers a living wage and improve working conditions at Amazon warehouses all across the country. He needs to know that you are aware of his company’s greed, which seems to have no end.
Now, I have never understood how someone could have hundreds of billions of dollars and feel the desperate need for even more. I would think that, with the amount of money he has, Jeff Bezos might just be able to get by.
And I think there is something weird and wrong with people who have that much and are willing to step over working people, many with families and young children, in order to get more and more.
But this is not just about the greed of one man. These are policy failures as well.
Last year, Amazon made $5.6 billion in profits and did not pay one penny in federal income taxes. The Trump tax cuts rewarded Amazon with almost $1 billion more. And city after city is offering additional tax breaks, mostly in secret, for the right to host Amazon’s second corporate headquarters.
In my view, a nation cannot survive morally or economically when so few have so much and so many have so little. Millions of people across this country struggle to put bread on the table and are one paycheck away from economic devastation, and the wealthiest people in this country have never had it so good.
It has got to stop.
But that starts with all of us making our voices heard and being clear — loudly and directly — that this kind of greed is intolerable, and it must end. And that starts with you:
Sign my petition to Jeff Bezos: It is long past time you start to pay your workers a living wage and improve working conditions at Amazon warehouses all across the country. He needs to know that you are aware of his company’s greed, which seems to have no end.
As Americans, we must ask ourselves one fundamental question, and that is whether or not this is the kind of country and economic culture we are comfortable with.
I am not. And I don’t believe you are either.
Thank you for making your voice heard.
In solidarity,
Bernie Sanders

Young Gonder Turner yonder
And I admit for a minute there I confused or fused Little Dragon of Sweden (“high”!!, “twice”) w Imagine Dragons who I first heard via Eric Lindley pka careful)
This has close to 3m hits on YouTube whereas Jesse Gonder despite being minor league player of the year and called the best natural BL from Oakland had only 220 mlb H:
That I would do that —the below has close to a BILLION hits – reveals me as the Al Schact of would be Lyor Cohens:
and and: and this is the music blogger or music guy with blog equivalent to protecting the plate with two strikes and managing a flare to opposite field but I met Eric Lindley in 2010 fall and Imagine Dragons’ first Interscope release was not until 2012 so it was Lucky Dragon that careful tried to hip me to. They who were in 2008 Whitney Biennial.
edit to add, on Sunday: apparently there was a lock-down at O’Dowd the day I was gonna go up there and interview Jesse Gonder’s grandson so its better than just as well that TMW said let’s go to the City SF to the two museums we like there. Meanwhile there’s something in the papers today about cutting sports from Oakland public schools.
