Virtual Junk Costing A Real Ridiculous Fortune!

Facebook VS. Lamebook

Much as I now think FB is LB because it allows in a bunch of junk yet disabled my account for no reason, FB apparently can't get enough money and is suing www.lamebook.com for trademark infringement of all things. What? Just because it has 'book' at the end of it's domain - huh? What? So FB and only FB is allowed to 'book' a name and no one else is allowed to use 'book' as part of the end of their site name?

PULEEEEEEZE!

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13577_3-20021906-36.html

I liked the idea of Lamebook in that it pokes fun of Facebook chain letters, but the people who crawl and slither around on that site use foul low-class language that's typical of the sort of vulgarity thriving on FB.

So why bother ridiculing chain letters if you're gonna engage in something just as stupid? (that would be liberal use of the f-bomb and other cussing a blue streek.)

Yes, Lamebook is truly lame in this respect.

But I have no respect for sue-wars, people and companies threatening to or actually suing over all kinds of small stupid stuff.

Facebook Developers Sold UIDS

Funny how FB sold user ids to advertisers but FB doesn't name those advertisers. Go figure.

Yep, with all this privacy-fail I guess Facebook actually did right when disabling my account after all...

http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2371830,00.asp

They disable with no reason , they tout special interest agendas, they sell user ids, okay, FB officially sucks in my opinion.

Malware Pretends To Be Friend Saying They'll Kill Themself!

These people who originate viruses/malware/hoaxes etc truly have no conscious and no heart!

A social engineering (viral) scheme designed to get users clicking on malware sites, claims to be from some friend of the user (due to the friend's comp being infected) and claims the friend is ending their life!

The Rescue From The San Jose Mine A Miraculous Success!

All 33 miners were rescued, and in amazingly good condition. There are concerns, one has pneumonia, another has a skin rash, and they are all having to wear dark glasses and be in very dim rooms while hospitalized because of being down there for three months.

I was still at work when the last miner was brought out.

Memorable Day!

Today, they have started getting the miners out of the San Jose gold mine in Chile.

The very first man was brought out only a few minutes ago. It is an emotional time with cheers and tears.

The rescue will continue over the next 33 or so hours.

The miners were trapped for a couple of months down there, so this is nothing short of miraculous!

NBC Stinks of Propaganda

I was flipping channels, and came upon the NBC show Law And Order SVU, which has been going seriously downhill lately, actually so has the whole chebang. What really disgusts me is their attitude of sucking up to the food-cop agendas and everything else on the left. This was particularly stupid today, one of the detectives was talking to some company exec that was getting help from another company, who according to this detective, was guilty of the crime or sin, according to the food-cop cultists, of "pushing soda" PLEASE! Soda is not meth or heroin! Let the kids have their soda, let people eat and drink what they like (of course it shoulld go without saying that people should be responsible about consuming alcohol, but that's not what I'm talking about here.) Food-cops, mind your own stupid mouths and keep your damn noses out of my TV shows and out of everybody's business!

I turned the TV off in disgust.

Facebook's Unreasonable Disabling Of Accounts

There's no reason for Facebook to disable my account, but they have. They'd do better disabling accounts of people who show dirty pictures, spam users, support bullies and extremism.

I've never liked their policy of no nicknames allowed, either.

Facebook officially stinks in my books unless they decide to be reasonable and give me my account back.

Yeah no kidding! Who Says “Junk” Food is Junk?

Who Says “Junk” Food is Junk? 

Who Says “Junk” Food is Junk?

We hear a lot from self-anointed food police like those at the Center for “Science in the Public Interest” that there are “good” foods and “bad” foods, with most tasty treats always falling in the latter category. Even parents tend to embrace phrases like “junk food.” But an interesting experiment threatens to toss this conventional wisdom out the window. Kansas State University nutrition professor Mark Haub is finishing up his month-long junk food dietthis week—and so far has lost weight:

Haub kicked off a 30-day junk-food odyssey, dubbed the Twinkie Diet, on August 25, to question perceptions about how we view processed goods in relation to our overall health. And so far he's lost weight eating primarily Twinkies, hot dogs and cake.

Haub's diet is fairly incredible. It consists of sugar cereals, Swiss cake rolls, blueberry muffins, cinnamon rolls, peanut-butter Oreos and hot dogs. He allows himself one serving of low-calorie vegetables and milk at dinner, in order to increase his daily protein and vitamin intake.

One unintended benefit is that his daily food budget is only $5.

Three weeks in, Haub was down 10 pounds. What about other measures of health? His LDL (bad) cholesterol has dropped while his HDL (good) cholesterol has risen. And he’s meeting his nutrient goals through the serving of veggies (with help from vitamins). Not bad for his budget.

If it seems counterintuitive that anyone could lose weight by eating mostly “junk” foods, consider this: Haub is restricting his diet to 1,800 calories per day. Weight gain or loss is simply a matter of a calorie imbalance—too many calories “in” from food or too few calories “out” from physical activity. And as an encore, Haub says he plans to spend October gaining weightwhile eating solely fruits, veggies, whole grains, lean protein, and other health foods.

We’re not saying this “Twinkie diet” is for everyone, all the time. But it should certainly turn the silly good food/bad food framework (and those who love it) on its head. Morgan Spurlock, eat your heart out.

Video: Small Bird Recovers And Is Released

Sorry about the very beginning when the camera falls, but after that it gets really good. A bird flew into the front window and stunned itself for a bit. This is a video of me holding it and then releasing it out the back. It was actually over being stunned even before I got to hold it, and just sat calmly in my hand for quite a while before it finally flew away.
 
Oh, and I uploaded it using my new computer!

Let’s Cage the Salmonella Rhetoric

Let’s Cage the Salmonella Rhetoric

Salmonella spin from the ”Humane Society” of the United States took another turn for the worse yesterday. New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof used his Thursday column (and the Times blog) to mimic the animal rights group in attacking modern egg farms as a supposed breeding ground for the bacteria. “[W]e can overhaul our agriculture system so that it is both safer and more humane — starting with a move toward cage-free eggs,” Kristof writes. But like HSUS, Kristof is plainly wrong.

In the case of the recent recall that involved two Iowa farms, mice appear to have passed Salmonella to eggs after they scavenged on contaminated chicken feed. But rodents are a fact of life for all egg farmers—small and large alike. That includes “cage-free” operations.

At the very least, caged-hen systems can be easier to clean, and they move manure away from the birds more quickly. As one farmer put it: “In a caged environment you are separating the birds from their feces. In a cage-free environment you do not do that …Would you allow a small child to play in his excrement or eat his excrement?”

More troubling is Kristof’s insinuation that a zero-tolerance view toward public health risks should be the primary goalof farm regulation. In this view, even one case of foodborne illness is too many. This is a different point of view from the predominant public-health standard of ensuring a reasonable standard of public safety. Eating has never been a risk-free activity. But whether compared with millennia past or just a few decades ago, it strains credibility to argue that today’s food supply is less safe.

One commenter at the Times blog hit the nail on the head, arguing that although vehicular fatalities would certainly decline (or disappear) if the federal government set a national speed limit of 35 miles per hour, no one would actually accept that as the “cost” of saving lives. Driving 35 would be too inconvenient for people (especially those who live in Montana), even if it could be justified on “public safety” grounds.

Similarly, we could ban skydiving. And while we’re at it, we could toss out NASCAR and boxing, too. Really, any activity that’s enjoyed without a firm NERF wrapping—no matter how fun—could be outlawed. And we might as well ban spinach, tomatoes, and peanut butter. They, too, have been vehicles for deadly disease outbreaks.

Get the picture? Under Kristof’s preferred regime, we’d be reduced to a nation of fraidy-cats in helmets and full-body padding.

Back to eggs: Only about 1 in 20,000 might be contaminated with Salmonella, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The average Joe (or Jane) encounters one of these eggs once every 84 years. And if it’s cooked well, there’s zero health risk involved.

Is it really worth forcing farmers to expensively change their infrastructure on the nonsensical theory that it might shift the odds in some imperceptible amount, as HSUS claims to want? The two Iowa farms at the center of our national egg debate already have many opportunities to do that: keeping their barns clean, warding off rodents, and having better reporting habits. But cage-free conversion is (and must be) at the bottom of the list.
