PS3 + Netflix +Hulu + CBS + more = Sweetness
PlayOn!
This is not just for you foos with the PS3. It also works with the Xbox 360 and early next year, the Wii. I've been watching my Netflix Watch Instantly content and episodes of The Office on Hulu on the 50 inch. It works right off the PS3 menu screen with no hacking. 14 day free trial and $30 to keep it. I'm glad my Roku (only Netflix) is still within the 30 day money back period.

Raver Kids Beware
Russian Ravers Blinded By The Light
A bad combination of outdoor lasers and an indoor rave (forced by weather conditions) left 29 raver kids in varying degrees of blindness, some up to 80%. Good thing they were there for the music. Basically, powerful lasers that were meant to shoot into the night sky were refracting off the huge tent ceiling. Ouch.

Review: Testing Sanyo's Eneloop Rechargeable Battery
I've been working have less waste coming out of the house and so I was trying got find a rechargeable battery that would work well. I found the Sanyo Eneloop that comes charged out of the box and stays charged much longer than the current competition. The pack I purchased includes a charger,AA, AAA batteries. It also includes C and D adapter in which the AA batteries are inserted. I don't think it would last as long as a true C or D, but it could be useful in a pinch. StefanV says they store even better in colder temps like a fridge or freezer, and because of their long energy storage qualities they can work well for long term devices like remote controls and clocks. LT approved.

Einstein vs. Religion
Einstein: Religion
"In the letter, dated January 3 1954, he wrote: 'The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish.

WTF!?!
Anti-ecstasy/meth antibodies
I might be missing the point, but why?
"Researchers applied for a patent on antibodies that bind to methamphetamine-like compounds such as Ecstasy to quickly remove the drug from a user's bloodstream."
So they can create antibodies for drugs that don't have to be taken , but they can't figure out how to cure diabetes, a disease where the victim must take drugs to live. Hmmmm I wonder who's side their on? (that was a rhetorical question)

Bully Target
A Boy the Bullies Love to Beat Up, Repeatedly
I have just the slightest connection to someone who was in Columbine during the attack. No one there or in the nation could wrap their heads around how something like that could happen. After reading this kid's story it becomes all to clear. I don't know what he's done, but I know that no one deserve what happens to him. I know the bullies' parents should be blamed for failing as a parent, but there should be an upheaval of school employees(read:administration) that allow anything of this nature to go on during their watch. I have personally seen it happen before at California State Maritime Academy. These schools are just covering their own asses with no regard for what actually happens under their own noses. Shame on you Fayetteville. Disgusting.

Splitting Hairs
California Lanesharing
I used to ride motorcycles and I'm planning to get back into it with a Hypermotard. If you're anywhere near a city metro area lanesharing is a must. The thing is that it is not legal or illegal, so don't be a retard and check these rules.
Sounds reasonable, but some retard will mess it up for everyone.

The generally “understood” guidelines seem to be:
* Travel no faster than 10 mph faster than the vehicles you’re lane-sharing with.
* Merge back in with the traffic when they reach 30-35 mph.
* Never exceed the speed limit.
* Lane-sharing between lanes #1 and #2 is preferred. (#1 being the “fast” or “inside” lane)
* Stay, more or less, in one lane or the other. Excessive meandering might get you cited. (CA code 21658)
Sounds reasonable, but some retard will mess it up for everyone.

Starbucks to Offer Free Wi-Fi
Free Wi-Fi With AT&T
Nice. Now I need an iPhone or a laptop.
"Last month, AT&T announced plans to make its 10,000 Wi-Fi hotspots free to nearly all of its broadband Internet customers. The move expanded access to include subscribers who have a lower tier of high-speed Internet service, increasing to 12 million the number of broadband customers who can use the hotspots free of charge. Previously, only subscribers to AT&T's premium broadband service had free access.
Monday's announcement boosts the number of AT&T hotspots in the U.S. to 17,000 -- the most in the nation."

They're calling this a "one-in-six-billion miracle." That sounds like one person on earth. I don't know when doctors became statistician, but if they can figure out how this happened, rich people everywhere will be able to live longer, 2.0 lives.
"Brennan's body changed blood group from O negative to O positive when she became ill while on drugs to avoid rejection of the organ by her body's immune system.
Her new liver's blood stem cells then invaded her body's bone marrow to take over her entire immune system, meaning the teen no longer needs anti-rejection drugs."
