Growing scientific evidence suggests a future where our brains may prematurely fail in later life through under-use, thanks to Mother Nature’s rule that we ‘use it or lose it’.
This makes some sense to me.. we are not ‘wired’ to be as wired as we are.. It may take a couple of generations to get in the groove.. until we merge with machine, it will be a bumpy and depressing ride..
This is shocking.
It’s the first time McDonalds has admitted to actually using CHICKEN.
I kid, I kid..
This is a good first step though.. now if they take the REST of the plastic and garbage out of their product, we will get somewhere.
Food CAN BE fast. And healthy.. It is just up to consumers to demand it. Thanks to the FOOD BABE and others like her, it’s happening..
Let’s label this the DE-CRAPPENING.

I did not get the chance until just this weekend to see GONE GIRL.. But finally, my son’s sleeping hour, my wife and I sat down to watch this.. I am a little bit disappointed with the end. I will not spoil it—though I will tell you that you see the full package of Affleck during a scene—but the movie was too great to have such a let down finale..
I have no full review, and perhaps no point. But it’s the internet, I don’t have to.
Am I alone in my dislike of the ending of this movie? It’s so bad it makes me actually dislike the entire film, though until the final five minutes it was perhaps one of the greatest movies I’ve seen in years…
It also reminded me of how much I don’t want Ben Affleck to be BATMAN..
Liz Kearney in the SALT LAKE CITY TRIBUNE has a good report on this somewhat unsettling event.. and this part caught my eye the most:
Longtime locals swimming at Boiling River on Feb. 22 told Livingston Enterprise Managing Editor Justin Post the water seemed hotter than they’ve ever remembered it. A small cascade of hot water which in the past has been pleasant to sit under was unapproachably hot one recent Sunday, Post said.
Heasler, who has been with the park for about 12 years, said he and his staff aren’t absolutely certain what’s going on, but they are examining a couple of theories.
There have been tons of websites scaring me for years about Yellowstone.. And then tons of public statements from officials tell me and everyone else not to worry..
I follow DUTCHSINCE to get the truth..(you should too) ..
And now mainstream news is talking about how the Boiling River is hotter than every—in the wintertime.. Fear mongering from the SALT LAKE CITY TRIBUNE it is not..just them reporting facts and theories..
But the ever so scary potential for a Yellowstone event lingers in the back of America’s collective consciousness..
A very brutal murder of a 13-year-old boy is rocking Japan—and people are wondering it was inspired by ISIS..
Art Bell asked a darn interesting question in a post on BELGAB.COM the other day about travel and who people would send back to the time of Jesus to document events.. My answer is below his, I picked Ben Franklin.
There were lots of other cool answers too, some even suggested Bruce Campbell.
And at this point if you’re an Art Bell excited for his return this coming July and NOT a member of BELLGAB, what are you waiting for?
The new age war of words underway.. In one corner, Mr. Universe Deepak Chopra.. in the other corner, the Atheist Krauss with facts and figures.
There’s no meeting in the middle in this battle of wits.

Some awful news for people in the coal region of PA (and some other states that import the product from Shenandoah PA) who enjoy this amazing combination of flavors.. A recall because along with the cheese and tomato and basil, little chunks of plastic may also be within the product.. A new flavor indeed.
It’s all in the timing, isn’t it? Life so often works like that..
The UK DAILY MAIL has the full wrap:
A man was arrested at 11.30pm Sunday after jumping over bike rack near southwest corner of White House. Another person was confronted and apprehended by Secret Service agent at around 7am for trying to enter gate as construction workers were leaving
Being trustworthy and accurate could help a web page rise up Google rankings if the search engine giant starts to measure quality by facts, not just links
Lots of people are quite worked up over this.. As a matter of fact, the grand implication here is that GOOGLE is simply the Orweillian ‘Ministry of Truth” ..
Right now, Google uses a complex algorithm of determining the number of links going TO a site as the way to measure how far up in the search a certain website will be. Of course, people would argue that sites containing lots of misinformation will be too high in results and bad information will be spread.. you know, like the bad information that typically disseminates from MAINSTREAM news outlets during breaking news events..
But now the ‘ministry of truth’ idea comes into play, where Google will tap into a fact vault to compare with search terms. Of course, one man’s facts is another man’s figuring.. facts change. Historical accounts converge to paint very different pictures from those presented in the G-rated history books we have become grown to reading in our formative years..
The ‘fact optimization’ idea will most likely create a brand new multi-billion dollar industry.. I can see it now, people who specialize in advertising ‘facts’ ..
But a long time ago, if Google would have been around, a ‘fact’ would have been a flat earth theory..
And if someone googles “Best sex of 2015” … will there be a fact algorithm to present it? Because let’s not kid ourselves on what people Google—anyone with a website can tell you some of the bizarre terms that land them on their pages..
So for all of those upset by this, I get it. I am uncomfortable, too.
But there’s always STARTPAGE. And for those more old fashioned folk, you can always still ask Jeeves, even though he has been vanquished from the askeeves search page.
Have it it. Go out, Interneters.. and find ‘facts.’
My son did not really want to wake up for daycare today, and on the way there he expressed his disinterest in a Monday morning. I told him things were even worse for adults, and attempted to explain to him what happens during work meetings, the fake talking and the pretentious attitudes. I tried to explain how everyone gathers around the table and sits down, pretends to like each other for the first 35 seconds, and then attempts to outdo each other in ideas or long winded platitudes . This may have been a bit heavy for a 4 year old, but he seemed to grasp the concept.
He said to me, “daddy why don’t you get under the table in bang your head on it.”
When I said that sounds like a good idea, I saw him thinking. Then he said, “actually don’t, that will hurt”
Maybe. . Or maybe less.
That’s (potentially) 800 testicles for those keeping track..
I got some questions this weekend with my 'open lines' but nothing worthy of a mention..Feel free to try to impress me with just another factoid or question that may rock my world.
In the mean time, I have a somewhat selfish question for a reason.. I have this website, COAL SPEAKER, but I also have another one named the HORROR REPORT—something for the more surreal and unreal headlines, it’s coded with Wordpress, and it’s been around for a long time. I made a mirror site and, quite suddenly, the traffic on the secondary location surged higher than the original..
Mind you, either site you choose is probably one you’ve never heard of, of course that is unless you caught the brief millisecond of time the HORROR REPORT appeared on BROAD CITY..
Anyway, to make a not-needed-to-be-wordy post less wordy, I would ask a favor of anyone who has time.. send me a message or email and tell me which is your choice: www.horrorreport.com or www.nightterrornews.com .. at this time, they will be identical in all ways except design..
Thanks for the time, if you have it.
New research says sleeping MORE than 8 hours a day increases a stroke risk.. I should be fine. I’m lucky if I get four hours a night..
ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Almost from the moment a converted crabbing boat became a floating strip club off the shore of an Alaska island, it’s been beset by legal tangles over safety rules and liquor laws. Now there are allegations that it’s been dumping human waste into a harbor.
Yes indeed.. that does sound like a problem..
