On Thursday, the Brevard County Sheriff's Department suspended Corporal Chris Wood for bringing a can of Arizona Ice Tea and a bag of Skittles to work at the Brevard County Jail on Saturday morning. He said that he was trying to send a message about the importance of keeping personal predilections about cases from affecting the work environment; instead, his superiors suspended him

So the simple act of eating Skittles is becoming a political statement..

We are getting pretty touchy, don’t you think?

So I ask, when you pick up a Paul Roberts’ Mars Inc Skittles bag, are you eating them to enjoy the taste of the rainbow, or trying to make a political statement?

Helen Thomas, veteran member of White House press corp, dies at 92

Politico: Helen Thomas, whose career covering the White House dated back to the Kennedy administration, died on Saturday at the age of 92, the Gridiron Club announced in an email to members on Saturday.

Thomas was the the first woman to join the White House Correspondents’ Association, and the first woman to serve as its president. She was also the first female member of the Gridiron Club, Washington’s historic press group.

Inside Google HQ: What does the future hold for the company whose visionary plans include implanting a chip in our brains?

The power of computing, and the thrill of its apparently infinite possibilities, has also long been a source of fear.

Any of my friends will tell you I thought this was going to happen—and I figured they’d actually implant a ‘phone’ or the internet in some way in our hands to replace the typical cell phone. Friends and family who thought I was crazy can now see: They want to create a transhuman.

Do you hear me now?

LA To NYC In Under An Hour, Hyperloop System Will Let You Travel At 4,000 MPH

Commuting is a way of life for most Bay Area residents. Many people are accustomed to an hour commute each way without traffic. Some people even commute to Southern California several times a month, spending several hours each way either in the car or fighting through airports. What if there was an alternative to flights […]

This would be absolutely cool and amazing.. It’s the way of the future..

Unfortunately, Dwight Eiseinhower gave us the interstate system in the 1950s.. and we don’t have any IKE or sign  of him in office now.

So how will progress happen? How will we be connected by such a high speed hyperloop? Maybe just lots of luck or billionaires who want to spend their money in ways other than private yachts and underground doomsday bunkers..

Breaking the Bieber fever

The vile creature known as Bieber now accused of spitting in a DJ’s face in Ohio.. He continues to disrespect the lower-income people who buy his music. When will people learn they are being had? But instead of getting fed up with Bieber Fever, young kids without much common sense continue to scream in chilling anticipation at everything he does. What is the latest he did, aside of urinating in a bucket and spitting on a DJ? He got a tattoo of his mother’s eye. How quaint.

I live in detroit. there is nothing to do, no where to do. this bankruptcy stuff only makes us look worse than we are. and we are bad,.

I doubt you are ‘bad’.. But certainly things right now are not working the way they should.. Thanks for the comment.

I'm from Detroit but go to college in Ohio and every time I visit home it seems to get a bit worse, more abandoned houses, etc. I love Detroit because it made me who I am but we've got a long way to go. I really wish the media would show some of the good about the city though.

The media will never show positive images, or tell good stories. Positive doesn’t sell. 

It is always a shame to see your childhood memories become defunct with time and with economic conditions. Thanks for the response.. I hope everything will work out..

I am from Detroit, and I dont get why the media is so hard on us, even the pictures you posted make us look like Bosnia in 1994. We are a proud people, with history, but extremely bad leadership. The only reason we are bankrupcy is because of those in charge. Sadly it's like a mafia run city. Except the mafia would do much better.I bet you will be afraid to print this

Detroit files for bankruptcy

The city of Detroit filed the largest municipal bankruptcy case in U.S. history Thursday afternoon, culminating a decades-long slide that transformed the nation’s iconic industrial town into a model of urban decline crippled by population loss, a dwindling tax base and financial problems.

This is rather unprecedented..

From all those images of a vacant and deteriorating Detroit to this basic admission: They are broke..

I trust that the spirit of the city strong.. I’ve never been there. But I would sure love to hear from people in Detroit about this. Answer this post or send me a message on my open lines page.

I am not from Detroit.. but if you’ve driven through the coal region of PA, you may see that we have some stuff in common.

The jurors going OUTBACK tonight

Lifestyles of the sequestered.. For some reason, I always would like to think that a jury goes behind doors to deliberate in a hot, sweaty room without an air conditioner working, like in 12 ANGRY MEN. In the case of the George Zimmerman trial, there were no men, and not even 12 people, instead six as Florida allows for a jury trial. Now information has been released about their sequestration .. While in confinement, they enjoyed pedicures, they were permitted to go bowling, shop at the mall, go to the Ripley’s Believe it or Not museum.. and had some dinners at the Outback Steakhouse. Now I don’t decry them for their luxuries.. this was a long trial and they did not get to see their family.. But could they at least have chosen the Texas Roadhouse over Outback? Outback does not even rate! And finally.. I trust that they ….did not see any newspapers while they were out and about, when they used to go out…?

Terrible news.. tragic news.. and potentially criminal issue..

Update: 23 dead children in India simply for eating a school lunch.. This is such a horrible story.. That is their only crime in life.. eating a school lunch . And now of course the 'government will investigate'.. And I am sure find allllll the ‘answers’.. There are already some answers, at least some bits of information, being released: The food was laced with pesticides..

High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres said on Tuesday… And if anyone remembers those dark days in Rwanda, go back through amnesia lane and treat yourself to some horrid history from the mid 90s..

The news that does not matter udpate

ROLLING STONE magazine is defending its placement of a handsome looking Tsarnaev on the cover of its new issue.. I wrote about this yesterday, in part saying the outrage is nonsense and we are further arguing in this nation about things that don’t matter. This ROLLING STONE issue makes that point—with even CVS an other retailers saying it is going to ban the magazine from being sold in its stores! We continue to be victims of some pretty high rolling mind games. Take a peek outside your box, America.. there’s more to every story.

Speaking of debating about things that do not matter:

Jenny McCarthy tapped to co-host THE VIEW.. outrage now due to her critical comments about vaccines causing autism.. Yet again, proof Americans get outraged and angry about things that do not matter one hill of beans. At all.. No matter WHAT she thinks about anything.. that is the purpose. She is supposed to be controversial. This is for ratings. Americans who are outraged by this: YOU ARE BEING PLAYED, good.

How to be a bad talk show host as exemplified by George Noory.

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCkCjODOxwk]

This guy is such a stooge. 

Unfortunately every stooge gets his day. Or his decade. Premiere Radio Networks just extended his contract—and Noory says in the press release he will be on the air long enough to see NASA put a man on the Mars.

Knowing that, NASA may fast-track their mission.

For your reading without my commentary. This letter does indeed speak for itself, and it’s very well-stated..

The man with no memory: Navy vet wakes up, speaks only Swedish

Stories like this always blow my mind. Imagine this: A Navy vet goes unconscious, wakes up without a memory, and speaks Swedish. That frightening concept is exactly what happened in the case of Michael Thomas of Florida, who was found in a Motel 6 in Southern California by police.. He now believes he is Johan Elk of Sweden..

Bizarre stuff, isn’t it?

Looking forward to the CONJURING

The CONJURING is being released this weekend.. Advanced screenings had some flare, with Warner Bros warning people that the effects of the film may be rough.. Also at the screening: A priest.. Not bad marketing and PR from the film—though websites like SPIRITDAILY.COM linked the DREAD CENTRAL article on the CONJURING screening with a headline “a movie to stay clear of”..

Praise for the CONJURING from the Chicago TRIBUNE..

newsweek:

Rolling Stone has a released a statement on its controversial ‘The Bomber’ cover. 

[h/t @buzzfeednews.]

This is America right? Now news organizations have to explain that their reporting was not meant to offend anyone?!

Ugh.
Maybe the folks who want to ban the Tsarnaev cover from their stores would be happier if the editors of the magazine sent them this one instead:

I live 45 minutes from Boston and let me tell you everyone is livid. I applaud Rolling Stone for this gutsy move. It was a risk man. I think they are trying to paint the picture of before and after to show the contrast between the reportedly happy American (because he was a citizen) teen and the "monster" he became. I applaud Rolling Stone for the balls to publish this knowing people would be angry. I think the contrast and the publicity was the point. Not to glorify him as a "rock star."

Amen! Thanks for your perspective. And I agree with it..

I recall both NEWSWEEK and TIME putting nice happy photos of the Columbine killers on their respective covers back last century..

I personally consider this ROLLING STONE controversy beyond ridiculous (CVS will actually censor the magazine …) .. I also think collectively everyone needs to take a deep breath, eat some fruit or something, and realize what actually matters..

And besides, that image of Tsarnaev actually tells a story all by itself.

Study: Government Tracking Movement of Every Vehicle with License Plate

Well how about that then!

Study: Government Tracking Movement of Every Vehicle with License Plate

So these are the things Americans get mad about now? Magazine covers? Do people buy magazines anymore!? There is “controversy,” “anger,” and “rage” after ROLLING STONE placed Tsarnaev on its cover.. some have complained that the cover is ‘tasteless’ and offensive. Some say the picture, self-taken by the would be terrorist when he snapped it, makes him look like a rock star instead of a bomber. .

When people get past the fake controversy of a simple cover image, the actual ROLLING STONE story features some revelations you may not have heard of before, including the fact a plea from his former wrestling coach may have been enough to get him to surrender from the boat he was hiding in..

This is terrible news from India..

This is a terrible story from India, where school food killed 22 kids..traces of organo phosphorous have been found in the meal served to children which is poisonous.. This has caused protests and anger across Bihar, and India itself.. and now according to reports, it could have been deliberate poisoning..

WATCH: How Promiscuity Is A Form Of Self-Mutilation

For girls who grow up without fathers, it’s not unusual to act out sexually and look for validation in all the wrong places. Promiscuity is often observed as a common practice among “daddyless daughters” and is just one possible effect of not having a father figure.

Dreadful dinner woes

I rarely blog about the mundane nature of my existence, instead focusing on the horrific ways of our planet, but this one is a tale needing to be told of my night last night.

My chicken looked great.. until I cut into it and realized I left the plastic on it. And sadly it was so beautiful.. Curry seasoned plastic-covered chicken.. Baked to perfected. 

It became food for maggots moments after I cut into the first piece and ended up with a 2 inch piece of plastic in my mouth. But it was the most delicious plastic I’ve ever eaten..

Does plastic still constitute as one ingredient in my one ingredient lifestyle..? Guess not..

Summer's Worst Week of Heat NYC, DC, Philly, Boston

Plain and simple, this week may feel the worst of any week for this summer in the Northeast. The I-95 region will be a virtual sauna bath.

It’s hot.

No really hot.

No it’s hotter than that.

I always chuckle when those who ‘love the summer’ are seen quietly fanning themselves as sweat pours down their faces in the high noon heat of summer. You still like it, summer lovers? You enjoy the sweltering murderous heat? The kind that kills puppies and makes you sick? You’d really pick this over the cool breeze of fall and the snow of winter? 

I guess it’s all relative. 

After all, even the snow lovers come to miss the warmth by February..

Until then.. we have a HEAT WAVE!

Zimmerman's lawyer compares Trayvon death to kids who die of cancer...

Ugh..

Zimmerman's lawyer compares Trayvon death to kids who die of cancer...

Saturday night’s main event.

Bars and restaurants filled with patrons undoubtedly are now suddenly embroiled in Saturday night conversations about George Zimmerman, Tweeting their thoughts, and lamenting the justice system if they disagree..

There will be outrage and rage.. some will be happy that the justice system, for all purposes, seemed to work. Work in the sense where a jury finds a defendant not guilty because the prosecution substantially failed in proving the case of Zimmerman murdering Trayvon Martin in cold blood… one night in Florida months ago.

Tonight, when a jury of six women, five mothers, found Zimmerman not guilty, the justice system was exposed…It’s flawed and often wrong.. sloppy and long.. Legal briefs are abundant.. nights are late.. And the battles are more than skin deep.

When Casey Anthony was found not guilty, so many felt a world of horror for her daughter who had no justice… And now tonight, many feel the same for Trayvon Martin..

Trends are trending on Twitter tonight. Facebook is alive and well with passionate opinions.. Bloggers are opining .. in person, many are rambling. 

This trial intrigued the nation.
And whenever a trial does that, it causes so much division.

Maybe it’s time, as a nation, we come to grips with the fact that we are needlessly divided by race.

When it comes down to it, what really divides us? 

Are we divided by race?
The class system?
Religious differences?
money..?

Money.

It somehow goes back to money.

And money will be the issue now, as the civil litigation against George Zimmerman will begin. Most likely immediately.

OJ was found not guilty last century. But the civil lawsuits got him—even before he got himself by getting caught robbing his own trophies…

The George Zimmerman trial has played out, and now the outcome will play out..

It wasn’t 12 angry men, but instead 6 something women. Maybe if the jurors express their thoughts, we’ll find out if they were angry or happy with their decision..

Not guilty

The jury has reached a verdict in the trial of George Zimmerman, the neighborhood watch volunteer accused of murdering Trayvon Martin.

Here we go…

I am going to attempt to stay out of the ever-so-controversial weeds of the George Zimmerman case..

But I can only say this.. I am annoyed, very annoyed actually, with the amount of times both the prosecution and defense used the word ‘really’ in their closing arguments. Apparently both sides have been watching lots of old Tina Fey/Seth Meyers “really” skits from the Weekend Update bit on Saturday Night Live.

It was completely overdone.

At one point the defense lawyer, you know the one who looks like a sick cross between John Kerry and Mark Furhman of OJ fame, said “really? really? really? really? ” .. .REALLY?!

Enough! 

The jury, all six strong, should have in lockstep shouted back ‘YES REALLY!’

Really.
