FOXSports.com - USA- U.S. still can't solve Azteca in qualifying loss

This is ridiculous...

The crowd booed the U.S. national anthem and a spattering of fans chanted 'Osama! Osama!' before play started, and shortly after Lewis' goal.

So I guess this means next time Mexico plays in the US, everybody should chant "La Migra, La Migra!"...

Well, my fiance got another call from someone offering "free money" (literally). He claimed he worked for the US Government and that my fiance's household qualified for an $8000 grant that did not need to be paid back. She told the guy to call me, and by the time the call was over I was cracking up...

I asked him who he worked for, and he said he worked for the US Government department of Human Resources, located in Las Vegas Nevada. I thought it funny that a department of Human Resources was calling my fiance...

I then asked her how she qualified for the grant... He proceeded to tell me she has received a good rating with a US Credit Bureau... In the work I do, I have run across several credit Bureau's, so I asked him which one, and he said THE US Credit Bureau. I was a little unfamiliar with that one, but I responded "Oh, OK"...

I then asked what she did to qualify for this grant... He said she has been (or her household has been) in good financial standing. Always paying her bills in full and on time. And he listed various other stuff...

Half the stuff he ended up listing could not even possibly apply to her.. While her household may qualify for these things, she just so happens to be a live-in housekeeper & secretary. So if anybody in that household should be getting the call, it should NOT be her!!! I started laughing when he finished and he said "you think this is funny?" I told him it was in fact very funny... I told him if he knew what I did, he would be laughing too... And told him my fiance was probably cracking up at that moment as well...

Oh, I guess I should also mention this guy had a thick foreign accent...

I told him to put me and my fiance on to their DO NOT CALL list. He said "So you don't want the money?" I told him "good guess" and he proceeded to hang up...

So I basically told the guy to put me and my fiance on to a do not call list. I don't think that matters too much, however, as I've no doubt this was not a legitimate phone call. I'm willing to bet the call didn't even originate from within the United States...

I don't know what she did to get her number on these guys lists, but she keeps getting these calls... So I guess I'll just keep having fun at their expense... May as well make the most of it, you know...

--

Oh, I did a quick search on the net after typing this up, this page details an almost identical thing to what the guy told me... Some of the information he gave me was different, but he did say he worked for the US Government, and he was located in Las Vegas. He also had an Indian accent... He never actually got to ask for my bank information though, as I kept asking way too many questions way too quickly...

HUMAN EVENTS ONLINE :: ABC Caught: Schiavo Poll Distorted by Michelle Malkin

Michelle Malkin should realize if you are going to do a story on how distorted something is, you shouldn't be so blatantly distorted and one sided in the process...

She references the views of "caretakers and parents" as proof Terri is not in a vegistative state, but doesn't seem to regard any of the countless physicians which have examined Terri and come to the conclusion she IS in a vegistative state.

She refers to a single affidavit of a nurse, yet leaves out the fact that this same nurse is running the gamete of talk shows, and is seemingly getting a whole lot of attention for this supposed detail. She of coarse doesn't seem to take into account that this nurse may have actually lied for media attention...

She also seems to leave out, as much of the media has chosen to, the fact that she went though several years of therapy (view this page), and seemed to get worse over time -- not better...

And, as much of the media seems to be fully discounting: She doesn't mention the fact that the decision to remove the tube was that of the court. You see, Michael didn't step up & say "I want it out" then it was done. According to Florida state law the Judge essentially became Terri's guardian, and upon the courts ruling that the removal of the tube is what Terri wanted, it was done (then re-inserted then re-removed, then...).

The only real medical account saying Terri is not in a vegistative state comes from a "Nobel-Prize Nominated Doctor". I put that in quotes for a specific reason: He was NEVER nominated for the Nobel Prize... That was thrown around the media more times than I can count on my fingers and toes...

Outside of this any experts appear to have based their diagnoses solely on a select video tape. I explained in another post this was akin to diagnosing my medical conditions based off of a short tape of me walking. The problem is, based solely off that tape, you wouldn't be able to tell my 2 artificial hips and severely damaged joints from a sprained ankle...

I actually just did a search of my blog, and found a prevous post I made about Michelle Malkin. While typing this whole thing I did not realized I did another critical post about her... It's nice to see I'm being consistant... Of corse, then again I guess she is too...

NY Times Michelle Malkin - Writing With A Negative IQ?

I've tried to stay out of this as much as possible, however being it's everywhere it's impossible to avoid it. There are a lot of inaccurate statements going around, and the media is fully helping to spread the disinformation without bothering to verify it... So I thought I'd mention them... I'm going to make this short, so I'm not going to bother direct links to the info. If you've got the time, verify it yourself...

1. Michael is the ONLY person to claim hearing Terri request to be removed from life support.
This is false. In a 2002 trial the judge stated that the sole word of Michael would NOT be enough to support a ruling to remove Terri from life support. Michael's brother & sister both testified to hearing Terri say she didn't want to be on life support. Neither of their testimonies were in any way deemed to be inaccurate or false. There were others who testified as well...

2. Michael has failed to prove this was her wish.
This is false. There have been a NUMBER of full court trials and re-trials on this issue, and Michael has overwhelmingly won them. Remember Terri has been in this condition for 15 years now, and Michael did not just start this campaign recently.

3. The doctor for Terri's parents, who was nominated for a Nobel Prize says Terri is not in a persistent vegistative state
Do a little research... This doctor was in fact NEVER nominated for the Nobel Prize... Yet some media outlets repeated this more times than someone can count on one hand. I did a quick search, this can be verified here...

4. Look at Terri -- She is NOT in a Vegistative State!
There is a difference to being in a Vegistative State and being in a coma. Sometimes you get both, sometimes someone can be in a vegistative state, yet still be able to move. The movements of Terri are being controlled by a portion of the brain that controls involuntary actions. This portion does NOT have the ability to comprehend information and even understand she's alive. And aside from the dishonest non-Nobel Prize nominated doctor above, every doctor who has examined her, including countless doctors assigned by the courts, have all stated without a doubt that she is in a vegistative state and not coming back. Most people/doctors who have claimed she is not in that kind of state are doing so based solely on a single video showing Terri... To diagnose someone using only that evidence without any medical background or first person exposure is preposterous. That would be like someone diagnosing me with Rheumatoid Arthritis, and that I have 2 artificial hips, based solely on how I walk. You could reason something isn't quite right about how I walk, but in reality you couldn't even tell if it's due to something like a sprained ankle as compared to my disabilitating medical condition.

5. Michael is just in it for money!
This is false. Michael was offered 1 million of dollars at one point by someone in exchange for keeping her on life support. Michael turned it down. The amount of money won for Terri's malpractice settlement in 1993 was $1 million. So Michael stood/stands to gain that amount AT MOST! That wouldn't include the minus of lawyer fees and whatever money went to treat Terri... You can verify the money offer to him here

6. Nobody has ever given her rehabilitation. Michael won't allow it!
This is false. She has been in a coma for 15 years. Michael did in fact have her go though rehabilitation, which included (but was not limited to) bringing Terri to California to have experimental therapies. I ran across a timeline which details all this, and gives some perspective over the whole case to date. It's part way down on this page

7. Congress made a ruling, they HAVE to re-insert the tube!
Though it's not had a chance to be challenged yet, the Congress is not allowed to make a law directed solely at a single individual. It's unconstitutional for the Congress to dictate control over a private individual.

8. She's starving to death -- that's a painful and horrible way to die!
This is incorrect. MANY medical professionals have come forward to say of all the ways to die, dyeing due to lack of nutrition is one of the most peaceful ways of dyeing. I thought it would be horrible myself until I heard this. Then I realized the most painful thing about dyeing of starvation is going on being hungry. If you aren't able to register that you're hungry, the rest is completely painless...

9. Michael Murdered Terri!!!
Being there is OVERWHELMING evidence to the contrary, and no solid evidence in support of this theory, this theory has no real basis. It's mainly the people who want to keep Terri alive by any means necessary that have pushed this story forward. By the way, if you would like to learn more about what actually happened, read this story...

10. Terri has never even had a CAT Scan!
This is false. I'm quoting from teh page with the timeline I mention above. They summerized a courts decision, which includes the simple statement that she HAS had one!

The Second District's first opinion in this case explained:


Since 1990, Theresa has lived in nursing homes with constant care. She is fed and hydrated by tubes. The staff changes her diapers regularly. She has had numerous health problems, but none have been life threatening.

Over the span of this last decade, Theresa's brain has deteriorated because of the lack of oxygen it suffered at the time of the heart attack. By mid 1996, the CAT scans of her brain showed a severely abnormal structure. At this point, much of her cerebral cortex is simply gone and has been replaced by cerebral spinal fluid. Medicine cannot cure this condition. Unless an act of God, a true miracle, were to recreate her brain, Theresa will always remain in an unconscious, reflexive state, totally dependent upon others to feed her and care for her most private needs.

Welp, that's all I can remember right now... You can probably figure out where I stand based off of my statements above. Frankly, Michael is doing EXACTLY what I hope my wife would do if I were in a similar state. And it's what I would do if I knew my wife wanted that to be done. He could have given up long ago -- and got paid very nicely to do it. I truly believe he is trying to carry out the wishes of his wife. That's his only goal here. I think it shows just how much he cares about her...

If I end up in that position I would want the tube pulled. This is the first time I'm documenting this anywhere by the way. I believe the majority of people in this country would request the same thing. However, how often to people actually get to writing these down? I'm not in the best shape medically, and I have come extremely close to dyeing after suffering an infection and septic shock... One day I plan on recording my wishes in a will... However, I may die long before I ever get around to it...

In my case, however, my mother has stated if I were in that position, she would pull the plug. My fiance understands this too...

I truly would like to believe that if I were ever to end up in that position, my wife would care about me enough to do all that Michael is doing for position... I also would like her to find someone else to be with -- to make her happy. AND if I had life insurance, I would also like her to collect on it, because it would most likely make things easier for her... So from my perspective, I think Michael is not this terrible guy that so many activists are making him out to be...

Welp, you might notice a semi-new navigation bar at the top of the screen...

No, you're not seeing things, I've finally changed it!!!

It's been the same square block for years, so I figured it was time for a change.

The change is not revoluationary, but it is a nice fix... It's all curvy now...

I essentially new i needed a change when I saw my old bar on my forum. That block made me sick!!!

Keep your eyes peeled for more changes a-commin'... My guestbook is very old fashion, so that may change soon ahemSQLahem...

Welp, as of now I'm running on a new web host. As technologies have progressed, I've found my anchient setup antiquated. You see, my hosting provider was taken over by another company, but my web site was left on the same server, and seemingly NONE of the available controls that came with the takeover hosts setup worked with my server...

I would have to email requests, and it seemed half the time I never got a responce (with anything but bug reports, which they always responded to quickly)...

I'm leaving my old host with no hard feelings. I just wanted some ultra modern technologies... I now have some SQL databases at my disposal, and with that came a new updated forum... I still have to customize the look though...

If you run across any errors, please let me know! I'm trying to go though my pages looking for errors... I may miss some so email me (the link to do so is on the bottom of this and every page) and let me know, please!!!

Motorola's iTunes Phone on the Rocks

Motorla had planned on debuing their iTunes phone this last week, however they have delayed them...

Though reasons wern't exactly forth comming from Motorola, it didn't take long for the buzz to get out...

It boils down to this: Providers (Cingular, Verizon, or Europe's Vodafone) want to charge cell phone users for their downloads. What the iTunes phone allows them to do is take music they already purchased, or will purchase from iTunes Music Store, then copy thoes songs directly to the phone. What this means to the phone providers is: They aren't getting a piece of that pie...

So it's us users left holding the bag. I was hoping that if the phone was released in Europe soon, that hopefully by the time my current contract is up, I will be able to get a nice iTunes phone. Being I already own an iPod, an iBook, and have been a faithful mac user all these years, the thought of an iTunes phone is extremely appealing...

But now I can only wait & hope these providers get over their insecurity and realize they shouldn't be allowed to dominate every thing that goes into a cell phone...

Marines driven out of UAW lot

If you haven't read this -- do so. I'm very appauled by this... The fact that they will not allow Marines with foregin cars to park in the parking lot is bad enough... But to then say they can't park there when they have a pro-Bush sticker? Gimmie a break...

I have decided to try to help some Marines. Being they appear to be singling out Bush stickers, this leaves the door wide open for other stickers... So in responce, I have added a new section to my store!!!

There is currently only one item in the new section as I'm writing this, but I do plan on adding more...

So as of now, if you are a Marine who has a Bush bumper sticker & can no longer park in a UAW lot, get one of these instead!!!

My fiance just called me to tell me about a phone call on her cell phone she got...

She got a call from someone with a slight accent saying she had been selected to receive a $5000 payment which she wouldn't need to pay back...

They then said all they needed was some info to sign her up "okay?"...

She, not being fully fluent in English, said she didn't understand. When he repeated the information, she then said she didn't want to sign up for anything...

The person then said "well then F#$% You!"

My fiance then, not being fully sure of what he said, said "I don't understand what you are saying." To which he repeated his original spiel of her needing to sign up.

Then, she, having understood that part of it (but not understanding his response, or at least was unsure she understood it), repeated she didn't want to sign up for anything...

The guy then, again repeated the "well then F#$% You!"

She then said "thanks for your courtesy..." and the guy hung up...


I have to assume it was a scam, as no company in their right mind would work this way...
I'm wishing she had told them to call me, as I would have had a field day... I figured if they asked to "sign me up" I would do stuff like telling them my first name is Ska and my last name was Martist (Skam-artist, get it?)...

9/11: A Boeing 757 Struck the Pentagon

I ran across this, and I think it does a good job to prove that what hit the pentagon WAS a 757. They actually explained a lot of things quoted by conspiracy therorists...

I recognized a couple, like the explination of the seemingly too small airline engine. When you take into account that it may be part of a generator, which are commonly on 757s and look like a mini engine on the tail, it pretty much explains the presence of the part, and why someone from Rolls Roice said the part did not come from a Rolls Roice engine...

Also doing a little research on my own, I finally found an explination for a statement made by this site.

Now here we have a possible piece of wreckage. Although it looks like it may be off the airplane, I have a few questions about it. It can't be an external part of Flight 77 because there is no painted parts that are white in color on American Airlines color scheme. The second thing is the flag. When was the last time you ever saw a flag painted on a Commercial Jet interior like this?

Not only can I verify that an American Airlines jet DOES have white paint on the outside, I can also verify there is an AMERICAN FLAG PAINTED IN THE WHITE SECTION!!! Just take a look at this page. You can clearly see an american flag painted on the white tail section in the photo...

Unless American Airlines repainted all their planes following 9/11, this "evidence" has a major flaw: It's a lie!

Has anybody else out there noticed how buggy Blogger has been lately???

I've noticed that, for starters, some pages seem to take forever to load...

Another problem that I've constantly been getting are "The page cannot be displayed" type errors.

I was just trying to update my profile, and every time I hit "Save Profile" I get the error... I've tried hitting the save changes button 10 times in the last 5 minutes, and I still get the error...

Earlier this morning I was getting the error every time I tried to edit a post. After several tires I finally was able to edit it, but after clicking the publish button I again got the same error...

And every time I hit my Google Toolbar "Blog This!" button, it seems like it takes 5 minutes to load the little window, and half of the time I get the same load error that I have been everywhere else... And when I try to publish a new blog, I've had to get into the habit of copying all the text for the post before hitting publish, in case after the 5 minutes it takes to load the "Done" page I get the same error...

I've noticed these problems for the last couple weeks, and they do not seem to be getting any better...

Has anybody else noticed this?

Super Shuffle

While it does have an FM tuner, without question this is a direct copy of Apple's iPod Shuffle. To be honest, when I first saw the picture, I though it was in fact a picture of an iPod Shuffle, but look closely -- It's not!!!

There have been some pretty close attempts to knock off Apple's origional iPod. This is the closest reproduction I've ever seen... It even comes in the same sizes the iPod Shuffle does...

I have to asume it will only be a few days before Apple files suit. I at least surely hope that's the case here. I've personally disagreed with a couple of Apple's suits in the past... This one, however, deserves to be sued...

They're asking for it...

They should make the ring around the play button red, then have a red dot in the middle:

ABC News: Jammers Offer Solution to Cell Phone Disturbances

These have been in the news a lot lately, and I have to say I'm a bit bothered...

Someone could seriously loose their life over one of these, and I'm not being fesieous...

A few years ago, following a surgery for a total right hip replacement (I had the left replaced 2 years earlier), I developed a serious infection. I was living with my parents at the time & they had left to go on a camping trip...

I had called in to work sick that morning (it was a Thursday, I think I had Friday/Saturday as my weekend) as I had been feeling terrible the past few days. That morning I was very dizzy, and was certain I had low blood sugar (being a Diabetic), though it was very odd as no matter how much sugar I took in (I remember drinking a whole carton of orange juice and drinking maple surup out of the bottle), I did feel any better...

I had called 911 when I was barely holding on to conceousness. I barely had enough energy to go open the door for the police officer that had arrived. I remember sitting on the couch in the living room and barely remember being wheeled into the ambulance a few minutes later...

I was taken to the hospital unconceous, in the process of undergoing septic shock. I apparently had a heart attack, and severly high blood sugar giving me diabetic asidosis...

Upon ariving at the hospital, the doctors gave me somewhere between a 5% to 10% chance of survival (so I litarally had a 90% chance of dieing). The doctor called my family into an office to tell them I was going to die...

I was VERY fortuante to have survived. However, had I not been able to call 911 WHEN I did, I would be dead right now. No maybe's about it... I WOULD be dead...


The thing that scares me about the cell phone jamming, is that as of today a cell phone is the ONLY phone I have. I did not get a land line phone because in the begining I couldn't afford it, and now I don't want to stretch the money I currently have to pay for it now...

The thing is, my appartment building is with walking distance of two hotels (walking distance for me, keep in mind I have 2 artifial hips). I can see one of them out my bedroom window and the other is directly in front of the complex's parking area... There's also a handfull of resteraunts which are in a 1/4 mile radius from my building, AND a movie theater around a 1/2 mile away. And these doesn't even take into account the posibility of someone in the complex who may buy one to block off calls to a spouce or child...

If any of these places were to get a jammer, and they so happened to cut my signal, under this type of curcumstance I would in fact be as good as dead. Being a Diabetic I also have to worry about things such as low blood sugar. If I got to a point where I couldn't walk into my kitchen (and there have been occasions in the past where this has happened), if I could not call out, I again would be dead...

The fact is, if the use for these things expand, it won't be a matter of if someone will die who could have been saved, it will be a matter of when...

I agree cell phones can be a major disruption, but most places that seem to be talking about using them don't seem to have even tried alternatives. Is someone's phone in a movie theater or other type of theater rings, they should be thrown out. I've never once seen this happen, and I've often wondered why...

And of corse for the others who use them simply to be funny, or to try to block someone specific: Remember it's not only illegal (and you could be fined $11,000 and spend a year in Jail), but if you end up being the one to cause someone's death over it, you will be guilty of manslaughter... While you're sitting there laughing at some guy who keeps loosing his call, someone next door could be having a heart attack, and be unable to call 911... If that was someone you knew or cared about, I doubt you would be laughing at that point in time...

I was checking my sites rank in MSN today & found one of my pages isn't doing so well. Namely my Baking Powder Submarine page...

I was kinda surprised, since of all the pages I've found on the net, I seem to have the most detailed page on the subject... Which is the whole reason I created the page to begin with...

But that isn't what this post is about, however...

I decided to try a search for my page and click MSN's "Near Me" button. I was surprised to find my page was no where in the mix. Then I realized something... Though I live near Los Angeles, and maintain my page fully from this location, my hosting service is located in the Eastern area. New York-ish I believe...

So basically, while I am located near me, the physical location of my domain is not... So this is a downfall to MSN's near me function...

For thoes of you who aren't familiar, I've been developing & refining a screensaver for Mac OS X, based off the character Torgo known from MST3K...

At any rate, I'm very new to Objective-C programming, and there are many things I'm trying to figure out. I am an experienced programmer in other languages, but Objective-C is very new to me...

My biggest problem is that I seemingly cannot learn from documentation. The easyest way for me to learn is by example. Sometimes I can find examples, and sometimes I can't...

At any rate, this is a list of things I'm trying to figure out... I'll start with the things I've currently got figured out...

DONE:

• Display images in a smaller sized - anti-aliased so I can ditch the mini images.
  
• Make everything modular based on plist files.
  
• Populate the animation choices in the nib from the program, making it completely modular.

STUFF I NEED HELP WITH:

• Use CoreAudio or QuickTime Audio to allow a volume adjustment in the screensaver...
  
• Create Animation.torgo package type files for each animation type, then have the screensaver automatically detect them.
  
• Integrate libmikmod so I can use a mod file of the Torgo Theme and save memory.
  
• Comletely clear the prevous image off the screen before drawing the next one -- To allow transparent backgrounds.
  
• Maintain the desktop on the screen as a background.

At any rate, if anybody can help me with any of these, I would greatly appreciate it.

Letsroll911.org

After studding the two videos shown at the top of this page, which are described as showing a flash from a "pod" at the bottom of the plane that hit the second tower, I noticed something kind of interesting...

The page that linked it described the flash as having occurred "at least 500 feet from the tower, and continued until the plane hit"...

The problem is, if you study the two videos closely, you might just notice that in the second video you can't see the flash until the plane is around a single plane length (less than 200 feet) from the tower... The two videos go at different speeds, and the only thing I can assume is that because if they were shown at the EXACT same frame rate, it would be much more noticeable that the flash in the second video happens much later than in the first...

This must only mean one of two things:
1) These are videos of two different planes shooting a missile from different distances. Somehow the government managed to crash two planes at the same time into the same building at the same place but somehow made it look like one plane from all the camera angles.

Or...
2) The flash has everything to do with the angle of the sun and the perspective angle from the camera. The same way two people from two locations won't get the sun reflected into their eyes by a single mirror in a single location at the same time... Kind of like when the car's window in front of you is reflecting the sun directly into your eyes, while the car next to you does NOT have the same problem... The sun isn't in the right angle on the plane in the second video until it's around one plane length from the building... The fact that the plane is curved can increase or decrease the likelihood of this occurring. However there isn't any other logical explanation as to why a missile being fired from a single object would appear to happen at two completely different distances based on angle.
That would be unless the shape of the plane blocked the perspective... However if you look at the so called flash in the first video, when it occurs it illuminates the entire length of the side of the plane (except for the area blocked by the wing, which since it's tilted up, should in fact show at least SOME* of the flash in that area - unless it's caused by the sun which is above the wing)... At no point does it appear to move any further back than it does in the very beginning.

Basically, what it boils down to, is the fact that the only way this is physically possible is that the flash has to be physically ON the plane, not just outside of it the way a missile or some other object attached under the wing would be. And whatever caused it would have to be direction dependent. Because if you physically attached a light on that area and switched it on, that too should be visible from both angles at the same time. The only real explanation for these two videos showing what they do IS A DIRECTIONAL REFLECTION! So C'mon... Gimme a break...

Oh, and before someone accuses me of working for the government or something -- read my page. I've had this domain since... er ummm, at least 6 or 7 years... I forgot when I registered the domain... But I have had a page actively up on the internet since I was in 8th grade (10 years-ish)... I am a republican, and I did vote for Bush... I'm not an expert on any of this, I simply think this info is obvious...

* - I say SOME here because I know someone will try to argue that the little part of the pod sticking down is where the flash comes from, therefore there can't be any light there. However the pod isn't very long, so the area that would be darker should be shorter than that ENTIRE distance that is dark...

** - I use missle here, but the arguement applies the same for a descriptor of any object that caused some sort of explosive release underneath the plane...

Welp, I haven't blogged for a while so I thought I would throw a few things out... This is off the top of my head...

I now have a new 20 GB iPod... You see, when I was given a 3rd Generation 10 GB iPod, it included a 2 year replacement warranty from CompUSA. Though CompUSA's replacement warranty for the iPod has changed, I had the origional, so basically they gave me a current iPod of equivalent value... In other words the $300 20 GB model... I feel very fortuante...

I've been developing an updated version of my Torgo Screensaver... This version includes movie frames of Torgo walking, along with the origional cartoon version (you choose which)... I will likely release it sometime soon, though some optimizations may kill backwards compatability with pre 10.3 systems... I'm pleased with the outcome so far, and the file size is now around 3.5 MB uncompressed, which is a bit smaller than the current versions size... Not bad considering there is MORE in it...

I have a friend from working working on drawing some Torgo pictures as well, which if they come out OK I will put on some products in the Torgo store... We will have to see how the drawings come out, however... And, again, I have no idea when they *might* be done (let alone IF)...

Welp, that's all I have time to write... I shall be exiting work here in a minute... I bid you all good eating... And yes, I stole that line from Alton Brown...
