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..
Two of the great things on earth combined: Ragtime piano music and Tetris. great mashup..
Enjoy..
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.
A century of scifi movie predictions have just been realized in the 6foottall robust android called Atlas.
DARPA is making this..
The FastCompany article says,
Boston Dynamics has been busy working on an entrant for DARPA's Virtual Robotics Challenge, a contest aimed to create robots that can help in disaster situation.
Sure.. and it could also crush you with one lugnut if it gets mad.
You pick.

This is going to be a very dangerous storm for Asia.. here is Typhoon Soulik poised and ready to strike Taiwan.. it’s been years since Taipei got a direct typhoon hit. That lucky streak could end by Saturday in the AM as this storm bears down..
Positive thoughts and prayers are with the island nation..
There has been an exodus from the coal region of Pennsylvania over the past generation.. high unemployment, economic conditions worse than other areas, and traveling to better jobs, all have forced younger people away from Schuylkill County .. And now the POTTSVILLE REPUBLICAN is sharing knowledge that has already been assumed: Most people who are young want to leave Schuylkill County..
Schuylkill County commissioners had a press conference on Thursday. They say that the county has lots to offer—presumably more than Yuengling beer and the A-Hole in Girardville—but they lament the fact so many young want to leave the area. To put a number on that, survery was conducted of the ‘yout’ of the region.. it found that 55% want don’t plan on living in the county when they are adults.
Of course, kids have grand plans. There is sure something about the coal region, maybe those tentacles of coal veins, that latch on to your spirit and trap you in the area.. Kids today become coal-region bar hoppers tomorrow, still wearing their varsity football jackets, trying to relive the dream of yesteryear. Just place GLORY DAYS by the Boss, and most will tear up thinking about the Friday night lights—unless your school didn’t have lights, in which case you’ll think of Saturday Afternoon Sun (*Cardinal Brennan football players would understand that*)…
So ….what would be a model for the future?
Two possibilities exist:
1) The county will continue to perish slowly, like a miner running out of oxygen in a confined space.. It will keep its high unemployment, and is generation of disenchanted kids..
2) Many who leave the area for experience and knowledge, will actually come back to Schuylkill county at some point in their lives, and bring progress to the area. The future will feature people, people who don’t sport mullets and cutoff jean shorts, creating jobs and hope ..
Which possibility is more likely?
A stroll down any street, Schuylkill County, will show how difficult number 2 would be to achieve.
Very humbling.
Hopefully my crazy talk tonight on 432 hz didn’t drive you away..
Maybe I was the victim of frequency mind control.
Good REM song.. remember that? Dan Rather should.
Nonetheless, I am researching all of this crazy HZ information and came across an interesting article on the 528 hz.. The ‘love frequency’ .. This website at least concluded that 432 hz is the best..
So they say..
Is this all crazy to you?
Here is the DOORS, changed from 440 hz to 432 hz.. Can your ears tell any difference?
I notice it..
