From the Des Moines Register, KSDK NewsChannel 5:
Des Moines police are trying to determine what led to a series of attacks outside the Iowa State Fairgrounds over the weekend that included the assault of two police officers.
Sgt. David Murillo stated in a report on Friday night: On-duty officers at the fairgrounds advise there was a group of 30 to 40 individuals roaming the fairgrounds openly calling it ‘beat whitey night.’
And State Rep. Ako Abdul-Samad, D-Des Moines said he doesn’t have enough information to decide if the fights were racially motivated.

Not enough information? Excuse me?

Hey, y’all, you may have noticed that I haven’t been around for a while. I’m still checking in here and stalking my favorite bloggers, but I haven’t had much time to compose essays of great political import. You see, I am now walking the virtual halls of higher education in an attempt to get a (new) professional life, since the old one had itself an infarction and went tango uniform (thanks, Obama!). Plus, I needed to have something positive to focus on, as I was becoming consumed with the constant state of suck that exudes from D.C.
So, if you don’t see me around, know that I still care. In the meantime, I’m letting WP carry most of the intellectual load, of which he’s fully capable.
Also, I just saw the most amazing boudoir photo over at Curtal Friar’s…and was floored to discover that it is indeed our very own Laura over at Fetch My Flying Monkeys. Damn. I wish I looked that good in lingerie! Maybe with a steady diet of Cincinnati Chili and Circus Peanuts, it could happen. If I’m really lucky. GO VOTE FOR HER.

Pair a hardcore industrial-metal soundtrack (Dope’s “Die Motherfucker Die”) with video and still footage of British soldiers absolutely taking care of business, and the result is worthy of fixing up a batch of heavily buttered popcorn to sit and watch. Yeah, the Brits had stones once. At least a few of them still do. Warning: NSFW. Note the insurgents planting IEDs getting blown up at 0:47 and the Gurkha wielding the kukri (traditional curved Gurkha blade) at 1:33. I would not mess with these guys. From Cmblake6’s Weblog. If you go there, you’ll also find video of U.S. soldiers layin’ the punishment to the accompaniment of Drowning Pool’s “Let The Bodies Hit The Floor.” Indeed.

Art can be found just about anyplace, including in digital dexterity. Here is an spellbinding video of Extreme Card Manipulator Mark Bautista. Check out the move at 3:11, in particular.

Seriously. Ping-pong with nunchucks. And kicking ass while doing it.

Victor Davis Hanson calls the O the “Y” word:
Obama: Fighting the Yuppie Factor
Money quote:
But those planets will not line up again in our lifetime. And so a country that is deep in a stalled economy and tired of elite bromides is left with our first metrosexual president, Barack Obama. Both the man and the agenda, after nearly two years, are yuppie still to the core.
