Have you tried temporarily disabling AdBlocker to see if the problem goes away?

Something f***ing up CSS / JS manipulation of it?
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

I don't see this issue. My guess is it's your ad-blocking software covering the advertisements that are embedded in that page. To get around ad-blockers, new aggregating sites now embed the advertisement in their pages and use a redirect from their site to the actual advertiser's site.

It's a conspiracy by Xzibit to give his 2000 hit X a second life: Xzibit - X[^]

Thanks for the info . How do you happen to know of such ? Do you listen to that "genre" ? and I use the term loosely . While coding ? Too bad there was not a big X atop the video . I'm more of a Khatchytunian kinda guy . - Best - Cheerio

First of all, that was a joke, no conspiracies about making a 2000 rap song popular again (that I know of) 
Second, I know of the song because it was a huge hit when I was in high school, everyone was singing it.
Xzibit became quite famous at the time because he was host of the popular MTV show Pimp My Ride.
And in those days I used to listen to rap and hip hop a lot, also Xzibit, and I still do occasionally.

I'm not sure if you listen to Khachaturian or if you make a word play on catchy tune and Khachaturian
Both would be good, by the way, although I only know Gayaneh (more or less the entire ballet, not just Sabre Dance).
On the subject of Xzibit and classical music, I think Xzibit's first big hit in the USA was Paparazzi[^].
Can you hear Fauré's Pavane?

Yes I could hear Fauré's Pavane , above the "singing" , and I use the term loosely . It was merely a note for note performance not a derivation to "modern" style which I assumed it would be . I am impressed you know Gayane in its entirety . I do not . I only know of the Sabre dance from its use on The Ed Sullivan Show during performances of spinning plates atop poles . Thank You however for mentioning the entire ballet as brief samplings of its various parts on YouTube revealed it to be quite enjoyable . I will add it to my list of music to enjoy and disturb my neighbors with as I prefer 85db . - Best Cheerio

Homework assignment[^]
For any of you wondering why my links are mangled I use a service to upload jpgs so I can link to them. They are safe.

Okay. Well, don't click on them then. No skin off my nose.

How do you browse the internet if you don't click links?
How is "safe" irrelevant?
What am I missing?

That should be worth 10 points. That was 100% accurate.

Everyone knows that there are six key phases in software development anyway. The missing one is "offering up a sacrifice to [deity-or-higher-entity-of-choice] in desperation". The noteworthy attribute of this phase is that it may occur anywhere (in fact, multiple times) in the sequence.

I've been in software for 12 years now and I wouldn't know the actual answer if my life depended on it
Analysis?
Design?
Programming?
Testing?
Deployment?
Looked it up (just in case my life will ever depend on it) and apparently we have "research, ideation, design, development and iteration. These five elements parallel the most basic questions of "who, what, when, where and how" that are needed to fully answer any set of questions."
Close enough

Which shows clearly (the cross-out), that most of the teachers of CS never worked a day in actual software development...

That's what all the hackers say.
If you think 'goto' is evil, try writing an Assembly program without JMP.

I'm worse than that. I play that game from The Princess Bride with the cups of wine and the poison.
See, I might know that you know that I'm a hacker, so that you would expect that I would write that it was safe, so if I wanted you to not click on it, I would write that it was safe.
Your move.
