by Charles Mines. Les was fat with crooked eyes and messed-up teeth. And he told me he’d died at age twelve. Died in a bike accident, revived, died again, and revived once more at the hospital. He was grown, but the trauma from the accident made it so I had to drive. “Take me to Waffle House,” he’d say. “Four more jobs before we go home.” He tried to monitor …

The fifty-fifty split—or 50/50 for a dash of brevity—is a classic layout pattern where two elements occupy the same amount of inline space inside a row. These two elements will stack once it becomes too narrow to properly display them side by side. Both flexbox and CSS grid can accommodate this pattern. I had recently shared a demo on CodePen built with this layout pattern, but the component in the …

The title means «When birds sing gloriously» which again is taken from a British medieval song titled «Lenten ys come with loue to toune». Speaking of the Middle Ages, the musical content of «When briddes singeth breme» is so-called Early Music based on material dating back to the 13th up to the 15th century.

Lots of people often tell me a similar story: someone they know is planning to go professional, but they can’t sing in tune. Should they be told, or be allowed to make a fool of themselves in public? Someone wrote to me recently with this dilemma: “A person I know sings really badly: flat, off-key, and loud. They have no idea how awful they sound. Their friends and family tell …

It was St Valentine’s Day this past week, a day for pairs. This of course can create potholes in the path of those un-paired or de-paired.
