The autorun ads have been creeping in. What’s worse is that they have audio. I really thought that DailyKos outlawed such ads.

This is for the search engines. I just can't stand Wheaton College and its holier than everything else attitude toward women's health care .... just too lazy to pick up a pen and apply for a waiver for Wheaton College's f*cked up women's birth control OPINION. It looks to me like Wheaton College wants the benefit with out the notoriety. Well I say let's give Wheaton College the notoriety.

What an underhanded stinking POS stand for Wheaton College on women's healthcare.

Perhaps if I mention Wheaton College a few more times the search engines will pick it up and give Wheaton College to notice it deserves. Remember Wheaton College lives on freshmen christian tuition. This stand isn't about their conscience, it's about getting parents to believe their soon to be adult child is a christian and putting money on them to keep them pure. It's always about the money.

What corporation am I talking about?

"I'll bet there weren't any Indians on that damned boat"

I'm about a year late, but I have been laughing about it ever since I thought it up.

I can't believe it hasn't been stated before.

Anyway, have a laugh, it's Monday.

Life with high pollution isn't free

China's 'airpocalypse' kills 350,000 to 500,000 each year

I've been sitting on this story for a week or more. I have actually been waiting for a diary to show up. Anyway the story speaks for itself. There is little I can add. This is why we fight with the right wing.

The estimate that the authors quoted, however, is lower than the 2010 Global Burden of Disease Study, also published in the Lancet, which estimated that airborne particles smaller than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM2.5) caused 1.2 million premature deaths in China in 2010 alone.

And it will be decades before they get the pollution under control. The lives lost are meaningless to China. Here there would be "hell to pay".

Village family-planning officers vigilantly chart the menstrual cycle and pelvic-exam results of every woman of childbearing age in their area. If a woman gets pregnant without permission and is unable to pay the often exorbitant fine for violating the policy, she risks being subjected to a forced abortion.

This diary started a couple of months ago when I was so bored at work I was reading Google news all afternoon. The one takeaway was a story that stated that scientists (yes scientists) have found that asparagus is good for hangovers.

one two and many more just Google it.

So I tried it last night. I knew between the beer an champaign I would be feeling a little queezy this morning. So, along with the beer and champaign I bought a can of asparagus.

The bottom line is that it works, I feel pretty good. There was just one adjustment to the experiment and that is that I followed the asparagus with a can of beer (just to get the taste of the asparagus out of my mouth). It works, I feel pretty good. Maybe just one more beer and I'll go play with power tools (it's a southern thing)

Happy New Year

Megyn Kelly suffers from "affluenza".

“Contrary to what my critics have posited, neither my statement, nor Harris’, I’m sure, was motivated by any racial fear or loathing,” she said Friday. “In fact, it was something far less sinister: A lifetime of exposure to the very same commercials, mall casting calls, and movies Harris references in her piece.

I have wrestled with the possibility that The Root is like The Onion and this is a satirical article. If so it's well done ... it got me. It still does not invalidate the purpose of this commentary.

When an article starts out with side by side picture of Marx and the Pope, captioned "Separated at Birth", you know it's got to be good.

Is the Pope Getting the Catholics Ready for an Economic Revolution? (Maybe He Read Marx)

It's a rather twisted read as the author establishes various links and assumptions. indicative of a conspiracy theory essay. Follow me below the fold for a review of the article.

I worked to rewrite the Navy's Air Wing (NAVAIR) inventory system and it worked, world wide, first time. Obama collected $500M $25 at a time (if not $5). So, there are people that can create high demand web based software. Obama didn't have anything to say about this? He didn't have anyone to consult? So this was about the best dinner at the best hot spot with the best schmooze.

This is a bust.

Even the order of creating a new account. I mean they couldn't even go to Google and see how they do it. Nor, obviously, to borrow some people that know BIG web sites.

I'm sure it is XML hell. But Overstock.com is very XML. Every vendor enters its own product info. There is no human interaction.

The premise of the shutdown is that the GOP is saving the people from ObamaCare (ACA). The problem is that if the threat of ObamaCare does not feed the masses the GOP will have to acquiesce. Now reading the other diaries concerning the success of the Exchanges it seems only a matter of a little time before the GOP must give up.

This is just a matter of a little time before the GOP MUST give up since they have lost all credibility and will eventually (even in red districts) face the wrath of the voters.

I say give it time since for the first day things look pretty good politically.

(Of course I hate the idea that 800K people have been furloughed)

Just a quick note combining two disparate situations. The first, is the NRA and their adamant refusal for allowing background check expansions due to that being a back door to registration. The second, is the NSA spying.

Is it not beyond belief that gun shops and pawn shops submitting background checks for the purchase of a weapon are not recorded. As far as I know the check form is submitted to a particular government agency(ies) on line with digital data. oopsie.

They know you bought a weapon, they know the date, they know your address they know weather you bought a handgun or long gun. The only thing they can't get from the transmission is the actual make and model of the weapon.

So smile NRA ... you're on candid camera. So, to you freedomz loving a$$hats, get a clue.

Basically I wish to point out that as the Presidents term winds down he is in a very vulnerable position. He must claim that no terrorist events happened while he was in office.

I think that explains the NSA surveillance leniency.

I think he is so scared of an attack that he will walk all over our constitutional rights.

It's all about protecting his legacy.

Let's face it. An email is a post card sent across a globally accessible media. So, to think you have "Private" email is just not facing reality. It's like sending your post card blown up on a flat bed trailer just faster.

Now you get to "But it's https (encrypted)(Google) and that's where the problem lies.

The company has sucked you in with security that it does not provide. It's not the security from various local malcontents, it's from the government.

Obviously to reduce the governments overhead decrypting every message they can sniff off the line. Companies are charged with feeding them the decrypted stream ... and that is the problem.
