Eating This Could Turn Your Gut into a Living Pesticide Factory

In a day an age where more and more people are becoming conscious about what they put into their bodies, GMOs are becoming more and more of a concern; and rightfully so.  Even the scientists that have helped engineer seeds for Monsanto, DuPont and the like, are coming out and saying that, not only would they not feed it to their families, but that these organisms at the DNA level are so unstable, that they are unstable even in the way they are unstable.  Now, what that exactly means in technical terms, I'm not sure; though it doesn't sound like what I or any other human being should be putting in their bodies.  If these corporations are messing with organisms at the DNA level and modifications are being made to the sequence, even from a layman standpoint, that can't be good when these organisms come into contact with human DNA.  This article exposes and talks about one of our staple foods that many of us eat frequently and sometimes even daily; and that is corn.  Take the time to read the article at the link below and get informed.

The Fuck-It Point

Before you go getting all upset about the "F" word being in the title of this blog, understand it is the title of the documentary at the link I've posted below.  Besides, the word fuck is just a word and it is our intent and usage that can lend to it being a bad or good word.  It's just another word folks and I for one am not offended by it and being offended is a choice and I have control over that.

OK, back to the documentary...  There are many, many, many, documentaries that have been put out of late about our world, it's economy, environment, and where we are going or NOT going.  It is about our desire for profit and money and things while not giving a damn about too much else that is the problem.  The rich elite, the few men that control the show in our world, care very little of how having their control affects the rest of us and our world.  This particular documentary is actually done pretty well and is worth the short 42 minutes or so it will take to view it.  It's kind of in your face so get ready and you may hear some expletives in key places.  No matter what you may think of this documentary short, it is a perspective on the lives we are leading in this world share together and give us cause to pause and THINK...

$160 Billion in Damage to Manhattan

No, not in reality.  Though, if what many of us saw on the big screen, in arguably one of the best super heroes movies of the last decade, would have been real; 160 billion would be a close estimate on damage.  We all love it when we see these bigger than life images of our comic book super heroes creating havoc and disaster while saving the the people of earth from the latest arch enemy.  Do we ever  think about or wonder what it would cost to repair all of this spectacular damage if were real?  Of course not, and that is why this little article is so interesting.  It takes something that is absolute fiction and takes into the real world.  Fortunately, CGI technology gives us a way to experience something we probably would never want to experience first hand and enjoy the thrill ride.  A thrill ride is exactly what the Avengers provide audiences this past weekend and earned all of 207.4 million.

Why 720p is Better Than 1080i

This is a useful little piece of information.  Especially since many of the specifications have a tendency to be meaningless to the average consumer.  This is a good video that gives a basic understanding of high definition or HD.  I personally have a 1080p Vizio which functions as my T.V. and my computer monitor. My computer is only 720p capable and I'm hard pressed to tell the difference in 720p and 1080p.  They are both ridiculously clear and I will be getting a blue ray DVD burner eventually.  Until then I'm looking into getting a Sony 1080p up scaling DVD player and will only cost me $40.  So, when you go out shopping for that new flat screen, remember the differences in 1080p, 1080i, and 720p high definition specifications.  It could save you some money.

Coming soon: Waterproof Magnetic Paper?

What will they think of next?  In a world where technologies are being patented and produced at an almost exponential rate, comes a new product that will virtually eliminate water damaged paper.  The applications are almost endless as well.  Think about getting your newspaper, before the Internet fully takes their place, on a stormy day delivered with no plastic bag and still, being dry enough to read with ease.  This is just one of the many ways this product will work for us.  Though, I have one little contention with the product and it's the fact that it's still paper.  In a day and age where everyone is running around screaming the term "GREEN" from every hilltop, metaphorically speaking that is, does cutting down even more trees to make this high tech paper make sense?  Well, I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all shakes out.  In the meantime, check out the article at the Digg News link below.
