North Korea getting airs again

@ 05:50 AM (17 months, 14 days ago)
SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea fired three short-range missiles off its west coast on Friday, the South's Yonhap news agency cited government officials as saying, on a day Pyongyang's media also launched a tirade of abuse at President Lee Myung-bak.

"... it appears the firing of the missiles was part of a regular exercise to check the performance," Yonhap quoted an unnamed South Korean Defense Ministry as saying on Saturday.

Canadian Border to Check iPods for Copyright Infringment

canada.com — The federal government is secretly negotiating an agreement to revamp international copyright laws which could make the information on Canadian iPods, laptop computers or other personal electronic devices illegal and greatly increase the difficulty of travelling with such devices.

Former U.S. president accuses Israel of human rights violations

Former U.S. president Jimmy Carter accused Israel of making "horrible, despicable human rights abuses" in the Israeli-occupied Palestinian territories. (OOPS...Excuse me has been Former prez Jackass Jimmie Carter, what about Dar-fur, what about ethnic cleansing in Africa , what about Myanmar junta recently, what about north Korea, what about Iran, and the killing people just because they are gay, what about hamas and hezbollah promoting suicide bombings using pregnant women, what about Palestine icon Yassir Arafat, the father of modern terrorism, what about the torture rooms used by the now rotten corpse of Saddam f-ing Hussein, and his sick bastard children that followed up in daddy"s foot steps, what about the constant institutionalized rape and smuggling of illegals across the border here in good Ole U.S.A. by the coyotes, and the list could go on and on)  Appearing Monday night in Pasadena, Los Angeles to promote his new book "Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid," the former president also asserted that pro-Israel lobbyists have stifled open debate in this country on the Israeli-Palestinian situation.

Mars landing

@ 03:50 AM (17 months, 20 days ago)

Well. all over the news the Phoenix has landed.....The polar region of Mars is going to be poked and prodded.  Will it reveal life?  Will it be bacterial, or something new. (The pheonix will only check for the presence organic compounds....at least thats what they tell us...lol)..How long will it be untill some chance shadow, or odd rock gets displayed as an artifact of another culture than ours....will Nasa cover it up?.....Now here on earth, we have found life in caves, filled with deadly gases, and high temperatures, in geysers, even a mile deep in the ocean floor, and on submerged volcanic vents.  The presence of telltale octagonal cracks in the surface up there, pretty much conclude the fact that at one time water was in a liquid state up there. Taking this into account, is it so farfetched that there is something growing there?  Now the hard core faith people will have a coniption fit if something does turn up organic and alive, and it would tickle me pink if "artifacts" from a different civilisation were found....Let the fun begin, and the theories fly....yehaaa....riff

Some criminals, are soooo stupid that they bear continuous public humiliation.....here are a few.....talk about pathetic....lol...riff 

Should've chosen another career: Joshua Crowley, 22, was charged with robbing a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in Camas, Wash., in March after being chased down, wrestled with, and subdued by passerby Mary Chamberlain, 66. [KPTV (Portland, Ore.), 3-20-08] (what a wussy....hey buddy try it again after your nuts drop ...lol)

In April in Bartlesville, Okla., Robert Horsley, 46, allegedly tried to come through a window in the house of a 95-year-old woman, but she grabbed a screwdriver and continued to stab his hand every time he reached inside. By the time police arrived, said officer Tom Holland, "(Horsley's hand) was pretty chewed up and one knuckle was almost gone." [KOKI-TV (Tulsa), 4-23-08] (ya think he would have stopped after the first stab, noooo not our hero.....dumbass)

Inadequate Game Plans: In April, in response to a man wielding an ax and demanding the contents of his cash register, the owner of Sam's Cigars in Vista, Calif., grabbed his wife and dashed out the front door, locking the man inside, where he made pleading gestures through the window until police arrived. [San Diego Union-Tribune, 4-16-08] (didn't he have an AXE in his hands?....hmmmm chop chop the window goes boom?....see ya in a few years dork)

In a suburb of Tampa, Fla., cafe owner Agustin De Jesus was asleep for the night in a back room but awakened by a break-in. He noticed that the thief had parked his SUV by the back door with the engine running for a quick getaway, so De Jesus hopped in, drove away and called police, who arrested Leonard Levy, 55, who is a candidate for life in prison based on his long record. [St. Petersburg Times, 4-22-08]....(oh shit!!!       Mr. De Jesus used a little judon't on him!...."Ju broke in to mi casa, but what judon't  know......is  I just took your  your car vato....hey puto thanks for the car....hhheeeeeeyaaaa...... chinga du madre cabrone....*peels out*.....Now thats some funny stuff....high five Agustin....rofl....riff)

A grim diagnosis: Kennedy's brain cancer is worst kind

By LAURAN NEERGAARD, AP Medical Writer 1 hour, 48 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - A malignant glioma — the diagnosis doctors gave Sen. Edward M. Kennedy — is the worst kind of brain cancer. Malignant gliomas strike almost 9,000 Americans a year. Survival statistics are grim — few live three years and for the worst subtype, half die within a year. (have another highball maybe that will fix it)

Who lasts longer — and some do — depends on exactly what form of glioma someone has, whether surgeons can cut most of it out, age and some other medical details.

Kennedy's doctors didn't mention surgery, suggesting that may not be a possibility for him.

"As a general rule, at 76, without the ability to do a surgical resection, as kind of a ballpark figure you're probably looking at a survival of less than a year," said Dr. Keith Black, chairman of neurosurgery at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

On the plus side, scientists are studying new approaches — adding a drug called Avastin to standard treatment, or even brewing up customized vaccines to help the body fight back. While they're still experimental, many glioma experts advise newly diagnosed patients to seek out specialized cancer centers and ask if they're a good candidate for a research study up front.

(gliomas are very bad news, don't let the press try to "keep up hope" and sugar coat this shi#, this guy is screwed. Despite my blatant disrespect at the start of this blog, I don't wish this on anybody, the family has to watch the deterioration, as he loses his capacity for coherent thought, and confusion sets in.....awful stuff....lets hope he goes quickly, to spare him the indignity of being a ranting confused man, that has to be restrained in bed so as to not fall and break a hip or split his scalp and have to go get stitches, to lose your mind is very hard on the family, as they have to deal with a "pillar" of the family that has started to crumble...hence the old phrase..."How the mighty have fallen"....it happens to us all...)riff

A question for the good "Doc"

@ 12:42 PM (17 months, 29 days ago)
Hey Doc......is it a common trait for substance abusers to be lying manipulators?...I have had the unfortunate experience of dealing with a freind of the family that is (in my opinion) addicted to narcotics...She is on ms contin, phenergan, duragesic, fetanyl patch and the lollipops, and goes to the ER frequently for "migrains".....I have seen many "seekers" in the ER, and all of them exhibit some similar traits....an elaborate story of how they were "injured" and the whole long drawn out HX of how they can't seem to follow up with a regular MD but can show up in the ER....anyhow I was just curious...is the manipulative behavior a side effect of the drugs, withdrawal behavior, or a blend of the two, or just their base possibly addictive personality......anyhow the reason I ask this is just for my own knowledge, and would like the opinion of a substance abuse specialist......thanks....riff

I used a fancy word he he) with stories about genetic manipulation of humans with horrible results.  Remember the movie GATTACA....it introduced a new form of discrimination...valids-vs-invalids....valids were optimized humans at the genetic level, designer humans...invalids were good ole normals....it gets worse from there. in other works of not so ficticious fiction.....anyhow here's the cut and paste from yahoo
