George Orwell Lives, But Babies Die
2012-01-25 02:52:00 All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others, and abortions are safe. George Orwell lives, from a deluded Genevra Pittman: (Reuters Health) – Getting a legal abortion is much safer than giving birth, suggests a new U.S. study published Monday. Researchers found that women were about 14 times more likely to die during or after giving birth to a live baby than to die from complications of an abortion. Reax,Steven Ertelt Life News: But Paul Wilson of the Culture and Media Institute says “Reuters failed to include vital information about the study and the people it quoted – namely, that the authors of the study and both of the experts it cited were either abortion doctors or had strong ties to the abortion industry.” Abortion may or may not be safer for the mother. It is definitely not safe for the baby. Link to this post!

Meaningless or Meaningful Lives???
2011-10-08 15:39:00 There are some stories that raises questions that are tough to answer. Today's TOI Story on "Satisfied with Life, Couple ends life in Goa" is one of them. In the suicide note, the couple wrote "We have lived a very eventful and happy life together. We've travelled the world, lived in different countries, made more money than we ever thought possible, and enjoyed spending as much of it as we could on things that brought us joy and satisfaction. We believe in the philosophy that our life belongs to us and only us, and we have the right to choose to die as much as we have the right to live." On the close heels of an IIM-Bangalore student committing, It shocked me to see people living "meaningless" lives or a life without purpose. Life "for many Indians" today has become just about earning money and spending it in material things - which they believe - is the only source of joy and satisfaction. They fail to understand there is more to life that just material things tha...

Edwin Jackson saves the day, the bullpen, and the lives of every man on tha
2011-04-08 05:25:00 With the White Sox bullpen weakened from 25 innings of battling a lineup that features Jeff Francouer and Melky Cabrera, and the offense weakened because Adam Dunn revealed himself to be the type of guy who realizes he has a health problem after seeing it explained on TV, the stage was set for the White Sox to be in dire need of a strong performance from a a starting pitcher. As Jim Margalus pointed out, the Sox had yet to enjoy a remarkable effort from their rotation; the lynchpin of the team. The closest they came was John Danks' 6-inning, 2-run effort in Cleveland, and even that featured a home run given up to Orlando Cabrera. So.... Into this situation, and in front of a raucous Opening Day crowd, stepped Edwin Jackson, who uncorked easily the best White Sox pitching performance of the season.

(4/2011) Moving Our Lives To Ecuador
2011-04-06 23:07:00 Susan Schenck-- The time came for us to move our lives to Ecuador. So my husband and I went back to San Diego to get our stuff out of storage and on the ship. It was going to cost around $7,700 to do this; so many Americans will just sell everything and buy new things here. But I wanted my library of 1400 books. We felt like we were back in the USA as soon as we got on the plane. Toilet seat covers, what a novelty! We had managed to live without them for seven months without getting any strange disease. Now back in the consumer capital of the world, my mission was to fill up that 20-foot container crate! And I had precisely two weeks to do it. This meant shopping for 12 or even 14-hour days! I felt like I was in some sort of game show where you are challenged to fill up your shopping crate in X number of hours. The Ecuadorian rules were that you can’t ship anything new (unless you want to pay 50% duty on it), so I dutifully used everything, even if it meant wearing s...

Isabelle Caro Passes but Her Message lives on
2011-01-03 19:14:00 French Model Isabelle Caro died of uncertain causes this past November. Family and friends say that she was hospitalized for acute respiratory issues after returning home from a job in Tokyo. It has taken quite some time for this information to become public, but she is commonly known for her her campaign against anorexia; a disease she struggled with herself. She posed nude in an anti-anorexia ad in hopes of saving others from this disease. When asked about the ad she expressed, "I thought this could be a chance to us my suffering to get a message across, and finally put an image on what thinness represents and the danger it leads to- which is death." The ad that was...
Live-Action Movie: Kakera, A Piece of Our Lives
2011-01-01 16:50:00 Well I just finished watching Kakera, a live-action adaptation of Sakurazawa Erika's Love Vibes manga. In a word, it was abysmal. The original was a short romance between two women, each who have other attachments they need to clear up before they can get together comfortably. The main conflict comes from Mako's discomfort with "being gay," when she is still in a "I'm not gay, I just love you" mindset...and the issue of her boyfriend who feels that he's allowed to leave her, but when she leaves him for another woman, gets angry. You know, pretty normal stuff. If you are interested, you can read my review of the Love Vibes manga from back in 2004. The original ended on a high point, maybe a little idealistically, as Mika and Mako go running off together hand in hand. The movie pretty much squeezes the life out of the original story, and fills the gaps with the movie equivalent of formaldehyde, giving it body without making it look truly alive, and leaving behind an unpleasant ...

2010-12-22 07:45:00 More good news for Indian Application developers. Bharti Airtel, has set up an Innovation Lab for developers. The Lab provides developers with the necessary infrastructure to test their application under conditions that simulate real world networks. The Lab has been named Zing and will be managed by Infosys.

I grew up on the Kentuckiana border and spent many dripping hot summer days in Santa Claus, Indiana at the Holiday World theme park.You may know Santa Claus better as the hometown of Bear's quarterback Jay Cutler, but I know it as the only place to go for blue ice cream, Mrs. Kringle's fudge, The Raven roller coaster, Spashin' Safari water park and of course, everything Christmas-related you can tolerate on a hot summer day. And it's not just the theme park, the whole town is Christmas from head to toe, 365 days a year with no days off - not even Christmas....

Has Technology Changed Our Lives?
2010-06-01 17:24:00 This is the information age. The advent of the Internet has made global communication inexpensive and available to everyone. It has affected the very way we communicate and transact. The information age has made businesses compete in an almost level playing field. These days, you can have your website optimized by an SEO expert so that the website can even be read in welsh. We are in the days where we can purchase things using our personal computer, where we can talk, hear and see loved ones or ones we want to love over web cameras. The convergence of technology has made cell phones become almost a part of us and overseas telephone communication cost has gone down especially with telephony and the like. We are all connected in that sense and the cost of personal computers have gone down to sub 1000 dollars and even sub 500 dollar levels. You can even get a pretty good net book for less than 500 dollars. The question is if we are too dependent on technology these days? ...

Design flaw on CTA Howard platform could endanger lives

The station serves riders for the Red Line, Purple Line and Yellow Line.She was walking last week on the inner-track side of the northbound platform. The space adjacent to stairs, escalators and elevators is so narrow that it's really an accident waiting to happen.On Thursday, Susan was trying to pick her way around the other passengers standing in that part of the walkway. She was near the southern end and had to walk north toward the Purple Line train. She didn't hear a Skokie Swift train approaching behind her -- and ultimately about to clip her elbow.

She has a way of weaving botanical, historical, mythological and literary references about plants into tight chapters that make you feel like you've learned everything you could possibly want to know about a plant. When I first read 100 Flowers it had a tremendous influence on me as a garden blogger and I used it as a guide when preparing posts about plants. I wanted my posts to be more than just a dry retelling of what particular plants were doing in the garden. So I...

How Much Control Do We Really Have Over Our Own Lives?
2010-01-11 17:57:00 Playing with the cards we are dealt with Life consists not in holding good cards but in playing those you hold well. ~Josh Billings When any year begins everyone is filled with good cheer and look forward to the days with much hope. You feel as if you have a handful of Ace?s. But as each day unfolds, the cards you receive are different. Sometimes, you think ahead and can predict what cards you get; other times, you know what card you need to play to get the card you want. The rest of time, no matter what we had planned and no matter how much you try to control the cards you get, life seemed to have its own plans! How much control do we really have over our own lives? I guess this is the ?fate or destiny? question. I?ve casually philosophized about it before but this time it?s personal. I?m not trying to be whiny so please excuse me if I come off that way, but lately I find that when I sit back and ?let things fall into place? they really don?t, and when I ?take control of my life?...

Frustration lives with the NASCAR Nationwide Series in 2009 for me.
2009-11-08 20:22:00 I’ve been watching the NASCAR (now) Nationwide Series for years now and I have to say that this year (2009) will go down in history as one of the most frustrating seasons to watch period. Where do I begin and I can’t and won’t put all of the blame on NASCAR’s shoulders neither. The fact is, the problems are all around the series from the Cup Series drivers invading the series in every single race, the ESPN coverage focusing mainly on the Cup Series regulars and simply the domination of Toyota. Let me example, let’s start with the ESPN coverage. I tend to give the benefit of the doubt to people and work with what’s there, at the same time I am a firm believer in when it’s broke, fix it. One of the biggest reasons for the Nationwide Series is for bringing up drivers, getting them ready to run in the Cup series, but it’s also a series about putting on good racing and showcasing the regular drivers in the series. With ESPN, they have the general basis of covering the ...

The first time I tried to do it, I thought it didn’t work, ’cause I didn’t do the last part of it, which is writing something on the comment box. While I was typing my first letter to the comment box on my friend’s status message to comment that it didn’t work, I was surprised! It looks something like this: Kinda weird eh?
