The history of banned and censored music is, unfortunately, as long and varied as the history of music itself. Wherever there's great art being made, the morality police are always close by. Read on as we revisit some of the most notoriously "vile," "suggestive," "vulgar," "crude," "un-American" and completely faaaaaabulous songs of the past half century!
Barry McGuire-"Eve Of Destruction": Both radio stations and music retailers alike banned this bleak portrait of life in the '60s after receiving complaints that its pessimistic outlook would encourage teenage suicide.
The Beatles-"A Day In The Life": The BBC frowned on this song's supposed references to drugs and sex. ("I love to turn you on.")
The Beatles-"The Ballad of John and Yoko": The Fab Four certainly had their share of musical controversy over the years. It was this tune's mention of crucifixion that offended radio listeners.
Billie Holiday: "Love For Sale": This version of Cole Porter's song was banned by the entire ABC Radio Network in 1956 because of its lyrical references to prostitution. Instrumental versions of the song continued to receive airplay.
Bob Dylan-"Talking John Birch Paranoid Blues": Talk about paranoid! The legendary songwriter was prohibited from performing his social critique on the Ed Sullivan Show. As a result, Dylan canceled his booking on the show.
The Byrds-"Eight Miles High": Though the band insisted that the title came to them after a plane trip, many radio stations remained convinced that it was inspired by a different kind of trip and put it on their Do Not Play lists.
Chubby Checker-"The Twist": You'll go to hell for dancing to this one! Or so thought New York's Bishop Burke, who prohibited students in his Catholic school from dancing to this and other "un-Christian" dance hits in the early '60s.
The Cure-"Killing An Arab": Camus' work has fallen victim to censorship over the years, so it's not shocking that this goth rock classic based on his novel, "The Stranger," would suffer a similar fate. The alleged offense? Racism.
The Doors-"Unknown Soldier": Fearing they would suffer political backlash from the song's anti-war stance, many radio stations refused to play this single.
The Everly Brothers-"Wake Up Little Suzie": Some listeners felt there was just too much implied by the duo's song about a teenage couple falling asleep during a movie date.
Janis Ian-"Society's Child": This song's references to interracial relationships resulted in it being banned by several radio stations in 1967.
Jefferson Airplane-"White Rabbit": There was no hiding the drug references in this psychedelic hit.
The Kingsmen-"Louie Louie": No one really knew exactly what they were banning with this one, but they were sure it was something bad! Even the FBI tried—without success—to get to the bottom of what the band's indecipherable lyrics really were.
Link Wray-"Rumble": Yup, even instrumentals have been banned from radio. This particular song's title was too suggestive of teen violence for many kings of the airwaves back in 1959.
Neil Young-"Cortez The Killer": Many Spanish listeners didn't appreciate the song's criticism of one of their national heroes.
The Replacements-"The Ledge": Fearing the Minneapolis foursome's song advocated suicide, MTV refused to air its video.
The Rolling Stones-"Let's Spend The Night Together": Mick agreed to change the lyrics and ambiguously plead to spend "some time" together rather than all those sin-filled PM hours when the band performed the song on the Ed Sullivan show in 1966.
The Rolling Stones-"Street Fightin' Man": Yet another 'Stones classic to make the list. Chicago radio stations refused to play the song during the Democratic National Convention in 1968 for fear that it would encourage mob violence. In an interesting twist, the single actually ended up breaking sales records in the Chicago area during the time it was banned!
The Sex Pistols-"God Save The Queen": This "treasonous" punk classic actually made it to number one on the UK charts, though its title was removed in official documentation of the event.
The Stranglers-"Peaches": Until the band recorded a less sexually-charged account of beach-side girl watching, UK radio wanted nothing to do with this one.
The Strokes-"New York City Cops": Though it was recorded for the band's debut before the attacks of September 11th, the track was left off of the American release due to feelings that it would be perceived as being too disrespectful.
The Who-"My Generation": Roger Daltrey's stuttered delivery of the title line led many to believe he was mimicking the impaired speech of drug users.
The Who-"Pictures of Lily": Several radio stations refused to play this ode to pinups because of its implied reference to masturbation.
We could go on and on! These are only a few on a long, laughable and ever-growing list. What are some other banned songs that you can think of?

See our introduction to the Hot Stove Scouting Report series here.
Player Name: Justin Morneau
Date Filed: 12/12/2013
Primary Pos
Secondary Pos
1st Base
Swing Breakdown
Starts closed with hands at his letters. Big step/stride without a leg lift, hands go up and back, stays closed. Load often starts late leading to late trigger—has to rush swing causing late hands. This is most likely also a product of diminishing bat speed. For the first half of the season seemed to "hit from his heels"—slow bat, very little leverage, limited his ability to drive the baseball; only able to drive pitches in the down and in quadrant of the zone. Showed some adjustments in the second half of the 2013 season. Produces good torque and leverage, especially on pitches in his bat path (down and in). Trouble reaching pitches on the outer half of the plate or upper part of the zone. Spins off, doesn't stay in the zone very long.
Good eye at the plate, especially on pitches down. Rarely swings at pitches in the dirt or off the edges. Will chase elevated fastballs up out of the zone. Will take big hacks when ahead in the count, but not the most controlled or consistent swings. Wants to pull the baseball but has to cheat to get there on time. Barely ever hits the ball to the left side, and does not consistently show the ability to drive the ball the other way.
Beloved by Twins fans, Morneau seems to have a reputation as a hard-working "good guy." The common narrative surrounding Morneau is his rebound from a concussion sustained in 2010. Pre-concussion he was an MVP winner, four-time All-Star and future of the Twins organization. Post-concussion he has battled to stay on the field and find his former production. Played 152 games in 2013, 25 with the Pirates.

BP Comment Quick Links
This is a great idea for a series and I look forward to reading it regularly.
I have two questions, one about Morneau and one about the format of the series. On Morneau, the article mentions that his bat speed has declined, and also that he has a late trigger. Has he always had a late trigger, or could it be that post-concussion he reacts more slowly to pitches? (As a Twins fan, I feel like he's gotten slower to react since the injury, although I might just be seeing what I expect to see.) If the trigger hasn't always been slow, but has slowed more recently, is that something typical of older players, or something that might be reversed if Morneau's brain is still healing?
About the format: Why don't the batted ball data (GB, FB, LD) add up to 100 percent?
I don't know if anyone can pin down the actual effects of his concussion, so I'm a lot more comfortable attributing it to his bat slowing down than to the head injury. Kind of impersonal and emotionless to say, but either way it's not where it needs to be/where it was. Bat speed and reaction time definitely decline with age, it just hits some guys a little sooner or more drastically than others.
I like the idea and format of the article. As a subscriber of about a half decade or so, I'd like to see more players evaluated in just this way (presumably by people with "traditional" scouting experience) to complement the statistical analysis and projection that is the hallmark of B-P
I agree with the above commenter; I for one would like to see more "case-study" players (indeed any MLB players, or MiLB players that are of interest to your writers for some reason, or players chosen with a theme in mind, or players recently traded for one another, etc.) written about in just this way.
I like this concept and can't wait to see more.

Eroticide learned not to wave dildos in front of children the hard way. After one of the band's sexually explicit shows, which include all manner of lewd, homemade props, sex toys, and simulated sexual slashings, the City of Mesa slapped the hardcore band with a number of obscenity charges. Then police raided the band's Phoenix practice space and studio, confiscating all of their erotic accessories. Eroticide bounced back by making new stage props and toning down live shows just enough to keep them all-ages. That doesn't mean that Eroticide is fit for the Disneyland stage, though. The musicians still sport ghastly white stage makeup, wear costumes covered in spikes and fake blood, and violently spit anvil-heavy songs with titles like "Cyanide Orgasm" and "Erection Dissection." The act is scary because it's sincere -- Eroticide is not out to humor you the way GWAR is. These guys are serious about sex and violence, and their stage shows are still as close to "snuff porn" as you can get without hitting the black market.

Miami Dolphins, why you gotta play with our emotions? You came charging out of the gate at the beginning of this season, winning three straight games, giving Miami hope that we've got a chance at a great year. Then you rack up four straight losses, putting us back in the dumps and making us believe we shouldn't fool ourselves into thinking that we can have a decent football team ever again. Then the Incognito thing happens, making us wonder if we should sell our season tickets and become Jacksonville Jaguars fans because at least they don't have an owner who looks like Droopy the dog. Now it's week 15, and we have a chance of getting the final playoff wild-card slot? Our hearts can barely take it. Worse yet, the New England Patriots are coming to town this Sunday. Every single indicator points to a loss and a decimation of playoff dreams. Then again, the last time the Dolphins made it to the playoffs, a magical game against the Patriots propelled us to the postseason. Stranger things have happened.

Softball gains split against UConn at FIU/Felsberg Tournament
Bearcats lose opener 6-5 but take finale 5-1
February 17, 2013Tweet
MIAMI, Fla. – Junior pitcher Demi Laney fired a complete-game victory as Binghamton (1-3) gained a split against Connecticut (2-2) in the final day of the Florida International/Felsburg Memorial Softball Tournament on Sunday. The game had been suspended in the top of the fourth inning on Friday due to rain.
Laney, who is now 1-1 with a 1.67 ERA, allowed only an unearned run, six hits, struck out six batters and issued just one walk.
"I thought our pitchers did a great job keeping us in every game," head coach Michelle Burrell said. "I would like to see more consistency out of our hitters. We were not as aggressive as I would have liked and tightened up with runners on base."
The Bearcats mustered only a pair of hits by sophomore infielder Caytlin Friis but took advantage of three Huskie miscues in the bottom of the fourth inning to plate all five of their runs. Freshman outfielder Sydney Harbaugh scored the first run on an error and drew a bases-loaded walk in her second at-bat of the inning. Friis had the only other RBI of the game when she singled home senior outfielder Shannon Kane.
Alyson Ambler took the loss for Connecticut. Her record also stands at 1-1.
Down 6-3 in the top of the seventh inning of the first game, freshman first baseman Tiffany McIntosh doubled in a run. Junior pinch runner Colleen Dougherty came in for McIntosh and she was then doubled home by freshman catcher Lisa Cadogan. Binghamton, however, left a pair of runners on base when the final out was recorded.
Cadogan led off the top of the second inning with a double and later scored on a sacrifice fly by junior third baseman Mikala King. That made the score 1-0 Binghamton. Connecticut, however, reeled off five runs over the next two innings.
McIntosh trimmed the deficit to 5-2 in the top of the fourth inning. Cadogan followed with a walk and later scored on a wild pitch.
As was the case against Florida International the previous day, it was fielding miscues that proved costly for Binghamton in the first game against Connecticut. The Bearcats made two of their three errors in the bottom of the sixth inning, which led to an insurance run for the Huskies.
Kiki Savariano (1-1) was the winning pitcher while senior pitcher Rhoda Marsteller fell to 0-2 with the loss.
Harbaugh finished the weekend with a team-best .365 batting average.
Binghamton heads to the Arizona State Tournament March 2-4.

The shortlist for the Wellcome Book Prize 2014 has been announced. Our Chair of Judges Sir Andrew Motion revealed the six titles at a breakfast event held at the Wellcome Trust.
We are delighted to reveal that authors Elizabeth Gilbert, Emily Mayhew, Adam Rutherford, Oliver Sacks, Andrew Solomon and Sarah Wise are all in contention for this year's Prize, which will be presented at a ceremony at Wellcome Collection on the 29th April.
The shortlisted titles, as chosen by our panel of judges, are:
- The Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert (Bloomsbury)
- Wounded: From Battlefield to Blighty by Emily Mayhew (The Bodley Head, Random House)
- Creation: The Origin of Life by Adam Rutherford (Viking, Penguin Books)
- Hallucinations by Oliver Sacks (Picador, Pan Macmillan)
- Far From the Tree: A Dozen Kinds of Love by Andrew Solomon (Chatto & Windus, Random House)
- Inconvenient People by Sarah Wise (The Bodley Head, Random House)
The list spans genres and brings together six thrillingly diverse explorations of medicine and health, including a novel about botany and exploration; the story of an injured World War I soldier; a survey of parenting and human difference; a scientific account of the story of life; a study of hallucinations; and a history of lunacy and asylums in Victorian times.
Andrew Motion said: "The six books on our shortlist take readers' curiosity about the human condition in breathtakingly different directions – from frightening tales of 'inconvenient' Victorians to the strange world of hallucinations; from the return journeys of Great War battlefield casualties to an important new concept of 'horizontal families'; and from a beautiful story of a 19th century explorer to a fresh take on the origins of life."
Over the coming weeks we will be exploring and celebrating each book on the shortlist. We look forward to finding out what you think about the books so make sure you let us know via Twitter using the hashtag #WellcomeBkPrize.

"There are too many fires burning to expect them to all blow out simultaneously."

New York City is made up of five boroughs: the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island. Each one has enough attractions—and enough personality—to be a city all its own. Learn more about them with this guide.
In just under a year this has become one of Williamsburg's best—and most comely—music venues, with nightly bookings that make the trek to the south side worth it. The space is divided into three rooms—one for drinking, one for eating and one for watching performances—each with attention to design and decor only recently seen in these parts. Cocktails won't disappoint, and neither will the food, which is prepared by Chef Ronald Murray, formerly of Bouley and Acme.

In the past, northern varieties such as Newport, Thundercloud or Krauter-Vesuvius were too high chill to grow well in Florida and along the coasts. But St. Lukes is very low chill and will maintain its garnet leaf color as far south as Orlando and Tampa, throughout the heat of August! In spring it has a profusion of small white blossoms, then leafs out with its bright garnet leaves and in the fall its color deepens to a rich magenta.St. Lukes is a tremendous accent plant and adaptable to a wide range of conditions.

A band that started in the early 80's that possess, and probably created, several of the compulsory characteristics for playing metal. E.G. - long hair, skull paraphenalia, tight jeans (preferably ripped), at least two albums with 8 (minimum) or 9 (maximum)tracks but still under 50 minutes long.

170 S. Harbor
Anaheim, CA 92805
Category: Art Galleries
Region: Anaheim
Sure, weve all seen our fair share of art walks at this point, but when you call it an art crawl, it automatically seems a little hipper, right? Such is the case with the Art Crawl ExperienceACE, if you willin downtown Anaheim, which combines all the familiar trappings of outdoor events (live music, DJs, food trucks) with, yknow, art. Rothick Art Haus is celebrating the opening of Raised On the Ranch, a new exhibition featuring, among others, local painter Ron Pete. His candy-colored acrylics range from the playfully nostalgic (My Pet Pez, combining a dog with the iconic sugary treat) to the absurdly grotesque (Shit Pie, exactly what it sounds like).

(Note: Opinions expressed in this article and its replies are the opinions of their respective authors and not those of DZone, Inc.)
I think point 1 is so important that all other features pale in comparison. If a piece of software isn't useful then the other 4 points don't matter at all.Perhaps you should have specified that these points are really from the developer's point of view when looking at his own or others' code. It's clear that these points aren't as important to end users of the software.
I wrote down my thoughts on what makes a piece of software good. My perspective here is more as a power user than a developer. Both those perspectives are pretty similar when using someone else's software. Obviously these are my own preferences and other people won't care about some of the points on this list, but I'd be interested to hear any commentary on them.
Lesson learned. No more Word for anything DZone related. Thanks for the catch.
Although it is a combination of Simplicity and Understandability, I think you should add a category to your list: Changeability.
This is not just about writing code. In fact it has to do with the way you architect your software (and the code you write to implement that architecture).
You need to make your apps (and associated code) changeable, and try to keep the cost of change as flat as possible, independently from the time that has elapses since you first started implementing your app.
One of the biggest issues of all development projects is that the cost of change skyrockets as time passes... and this is what causes many projects to be delivered off-time and off-budget.
I agree that changeability is vital, but it's also dangerous. You must be careful not to make your software overly configurable... then you end up debugging configuration files, debugging complicated inheritance hierarchies, etc. Making software overly flexible can make it overly complex.
Of course, that's no excuse for not making sure it's got the proper level of changeability in place.
I like to use test automation to ensure that the code itself is changeable. If you have a good test suite in place then it's much safer and easier to make changes to the code. If you make a mistake, it's not caught in exhaustive testing or marathon debugging sessions. It's caught by the tests (hopefully running in a continuous integration system.) The tests also help you write more flexible and reusable code. If the code is difficult to test, it's likely overly complicated already.
I fully agree with your comments Jared.
When I mentioned changeability I was definitely not talking about configuration... I actually have a personal issue with configuration, and try to stay away from it as much as possible! :)
Regarding testing, you're absolutely right. You need a solid testing strategy in place to ensure that your code stays sane as it evolves and is changed.
What an earthly, materialistic view...
I believe software development can be considered a form of art, in the sense that it is (for some of us) a never-ending quest for perfection and beauty. In that perspective, what makes great software is of the same essence that makes artistic masterpieces.
In another perspective, you can consider that great software is software that pays for your rent. A valid point.
Well, I guess that means I'm lucky ! ^^
I guess the answer to the question "What is great software" is a reflection of one's answer to "What do you value in life", which means it's purely subjective.
I think my answer would be more objective if I was asked "How do you create great software".

Gallagher: GMs' rejection of coach's challenge concept is puzzling
Tony Gallagher, The ProvincePublished: Wednesday, March 20, 2013
Referees are going to be a lot happier if they get to fix or affirm their own work when a coach has a complaint. And if you like, let them seek consultation from Toronto or the supervisor of officials, if there is one on site. But the referee working the game could and should make the final call.
There has been no end of examples in Canucks games this season alone in which coach's challenges could have eliminated hilarious blunders, never mind the Matt Duchene offside goal that is so often cited.
Take the last time the Canucks were in Columbus, when Henrik Sedin jammed the blade of his stick right into Sergei Bobrovsky's mask. A Blue Jacket coach's challenge could easily have resulted in a penalty being called on the Vancouver forward that could have changed the game and kept the official who missed that call off every sports show in Columbus, Vancouver and around the league that night.
How about that game last month in Detroit when Zack Kassian was given a penalty for goalie interference on Wings Jimmy Howard, when in fact he didn't even touch the man? (Howard's own defenceman, Kent Huskins, actually ran him over.) It was fairly early in the game and perhaps that call wouldn't have been challenged. But if it had, Dean Morton and Dennis LaRue might have liked the opportunity to review their work.
Why not try it in NHL rinks during the pre-season and assess the idea from there? There's nothing to lose except mistakes.

You may soon get a call from your doctor if you've let your gym membership lapse, made a habit of picking up candy bars at the check-out counter or begin shopping at plus-sized stores.
That's because some hospitals are starting to use detailed consumer data to create profiles on current and potential patients to identify those most likely to get sick, so the hospitals can intervene before they do.
Information compiled by data brokers from public records and credit card transactions can reveal where a person shops, the food they buy, and whether they smoke. The largest hospital chain in the Carolinas is plugging data for 2 million people into algorithms designed to identify high-risk patients, while Pennsylvania's biggest system uses household and demographic data. Patients and their advocates, meanwhile, say they're concerned that big data's expansion into medical care will hurt the doctor-patient relationship and threaten privacy.
It is one thing to have a number I can call if I have a problem or question, it is another thing to get unsolicited phone calls. I don't like that, said Jorjanne Murry, an accountant in Charlotte, North Carolina, who has Type 1 diabetes. I think it is intrusive.
Acxiom Corp. and LexisNexis are two of the largest data brokers who collect such information on individuals. They say their data are supposed to be used only for marketing, not for medical purposes or to be included in medical records.
While both sell to health insurers, they said it's to help those companies offer better services to members.
Much of the information on consumer spending may seem irrelevant for a hospital or doctor, but it can provide a bigger picture beyond the brief glimpse that doctors get during an office visit or through lab results, said Michael Dulin, director of research and evidence-based medicine at Carolinas HealthCare System.
Carolinas HealthCare System operates the largest group of medical centers in North Carolina and South Carolina, with more than 900 care centers, including hospitals, nursing homes, doctors' offices and surgical centers. The health system is placing its data, which include purchases a patient has made using a credit card or store loyalty card, into predictive models that give a risk score to patients.
Within the next two years, Dulin plans for that score to be regularly passed to doctors and nurses who can reach out to high-risk patients to suggest interventions before patients fall ill.
For a patient with asthma, the hospital would be able to score how likely they are to arrive at the emergency room by looking at whether they've refilled their asthma medication at the pharmacy, been buying cigarettes at the grocery store and live in an area with a high pollen count, Dulin said. The system may also score the probability of a heart attack by factors such as the type of foods they buy.
What we are looking to find are people before they end up in trouble, said Dulin, who is also a practicing physician.


text: Boehner Refuses to Commit to Another Full Term: 'I'm Living on Borrowed Time' Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 12 May 2014 post a comment House Speaker John Boehner (R-OH) refused to commit to serving another full term in Congress if he is reelected in the fall and retains his position as Speaker. Speaking to The Texas Tribune's Evan Smith at a San Antonio luncheon sponsored by the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce on Monday, Boehner was asked about "talk on the street" that he would "entertain winning reelection this November and not serving out a full term the next time." Smith asked Boehner to "disabuse" some of the cynicism among the press. "I fully expect to be Speaker," Boehner replied. Smith then asked, "Do you fully expect to serve out your full term, Mr. Speaker?" "I can't predict what's going to happen. I'm going to be 65-years-old in November," Boehner replied. "I never thought I'd live to be 60. So I'm living on borrowed time." Breitbart News has reported on a condo Boehner purchased in Florida. That purchase, combined with House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) and other conservative representatives jostling behind the scenes to potentially replace Boehner as Speaker, fueled retirement rumors. On Monday, Boehner's press secretary left "Boehnerworld" to accept a position with a health insurance lobbying group.
