Stress makes you behave a TODDLER, study claims

This explains why people in jobs across America resort to day-care-like behavior with the going gets tough..

Horny Ghosts Are Prowling Remote Highway And Seducing Drivers, According To Paranormal Investigator

A highway to hell, or heaven. Depending on your predilection..

Horny Ghosts Are Prowling Remote Highway And Seducing Drivers, According To Paranormal Investigator

The Houthis of Yemen suddenly seeing victories.. they have been fighting the government of Yemen since 2004..The New York TIMES has more on their background and history..

McCain urges 'boots on the ground' to combat ISIS

Quite possibly some of the best ‘stock photo’ photo bombs ever seen..

I really wish Bob Ross was still around. And I wish he was a weather forecaster..

Too soon to know.. but very timely to prepare. There may be not one but two major snowstorms hitting the East Coast this weekend into next week.. If that occurs, we will be having heart pains and shoveling. If it does not, I will be grateful..

I am getting a little sick of the hazy shade of winter..

This was a scene today in Japan.. if you had any doubts that the future was going to look very different from the past and present, read about this news conference..

Japanese androids not only held this news conference, but they also chatted with baby droids..

TECHWORLD reprots,

If you find lifelike robots unnerving, try attending a news conference held by a pair of androids.

That was the scene on Tuesday in Tokyo when the androids Kodomoroid and Otonaroid introduced a new pair of communication robots developed by an Osaka-based company, Vstone, and its partners.

Sota and CommU, each about 30cm tall, engaged in dialog with their full-sized counterparts at the Miraikan technology museum as journalists looked on, entranced. The smaller, tabletop droids can only move their arms and upper bodies, but spoke in cute Japanese resembling the speech of a toddler.

Also they may be hitting the market around April..
Real feeling and emotions next?

If you think it’s creepy, get used to it.. This is the future. The future is obviously now..

This somewhat reminded me of the episode BE RIGHT BACK of the BLACK MIRROR series, where a woman was able to purchase an android version of her deceased lover..

That, or the movie HALLOWEEN 3..
Pick your poison.
And get ready to get a little roboto in the future..

On YOUTUBE, user MrLegolize writes,

I was blocked by two trucks on south bound I-95 at exit 9 in NJ (New Brunswick exit). I only wanted to take a picture while i was awaiting for them to clear up… And then I heard a noise from behind…I was barely missed.
UPDATE (moved from the bottom of the description, since no one bothers to read it): Once I turned off camera, I called in 911 and reported the accident. After that I came to the truck and the rest of the cars to verify they were alright. After arrival of NJ State Trooper and his dismissal confirming that he does not require my presence, I left the scene.

Well.. that video is horrific, no?
I am perplexed more than anything as to why the video recorder is not freaked and screaming..

Seriously may be one of the scariest real videos I have ever seen showcasing the unnerving power of black ice..

One Tom out. Another in.

Tom Wolf now the Governor of Pennsylvania..

Pope: Catholics need not breed 'like rabbits'

And even more..

Don’t forget: Every Sperm is Sacred

Pope: Catholics need not breed 'like rabbits'

WNEP’s live stream of Tom Wolf’s inauguration keeps crashing. And every time I go back to click on it again I accidentally express my interesting in Turkey sausage flatbreads..

Facebook The Best Predictor of Your Actions

Using info on one’s Facebook page, new software proved itself better able to judge one’s personality than friends and family members could.

Just more proof that technology is becoming another arm of human behavior.. we are programming our personal Facebook pages to act as us.. This gives rise to the strong potential for Facebook to be programmed to automatically publish links and thoughts even after we are long dead..

Think about that one..
Deep..
Like BLACK MIRROR stuff there, don’t you think?

Sort of bizarre.. PCN’s coverage of Tom Wolf’s inauguration has been showing this guy for quite some some. I think he’s testing some stuff.. or did he just step in front of the camera? Even more.. he looks like a cross between Michael Moore and Kevin Smith,

At one point, as noted in the photo, he looked pretty enthusiastic that so many people were seeing him instead of the new Governor..

In this tweet, @BigJoeBastardi is talking about a storm I have also been watching for this weekend.. At this point, the model he speaks of is forecasting a big hit on the East Coast..

Something I would truly not like.. my wife is set for a plane flight home this Saturday night. A MECS would be a troubling issue for that …

There’s another storm possible even AFTER this one 120 hours out—lots of time to go and lots of moving and shaking of models may still occur. We don’t know until we are about 38-48 hours away..
