Nonsense ?Survey? Says Americans ?Struggling in Life?
2008-05-13 00:00:00 -By Warner Todd Huston But this is just another so-called survey that is reported backwards. It turns out that, even by their unscientific criteria, 49 percent of the Americans they surveyed said that they were "thriving, with few health or money worries." So, why is this reported as if the preponderance ...

Volvo Parts are No Nonsense Parts By Anthony Fontanelle
2008-05-12 00:24:00 Volvo is known to be a worldwide supplier of busses, interstate trucks, airplane engines and construction equipments. But among others, Volvo is also known to be one of the best suppliers of luxury vehicles not just in Sweden but as well as other countries including the United States. Volvo was established in Sweden in 1927. Today, it is already bought by Ford Motor Company and lined it up with its premier car brands. Before this division was purchased by FMC, it was then a subsidiary of a vehicle part maker SKF (Svenska Kullagerfabriken AB). Today, the Ford division makes and distributes its own Volvo parts to compensate with its released car models. The very first car made by Volvo was the OV 4. This was sent to market in April 14, 1927. For over 90 years of car production, it has made several innovations. More than that, precision engineered and performance Volvo parts were also produced. Among these auto parts are the laminated windshields that were first used in Volvo PV model,...
NASP President's Company Google Ad Nonsense
2008-05-11 12:24:00 Is there anywhere on the ad below, that appeared in a Google Search for "Structured Settlements GA", that gives any indication that it is a structured settlement factoring company. Despite advertising to the contrary and unless it has changed its business model, Novation Capital DOES NOT deliver structured settlement quotes. It is also not a structured settlement General Agency (GA).

Facts and Nonsense About the Brain
2008-05-07 11:00:00 Like most things, there is much nonsense spoken about our brains. Our brains are very interesting to us, even to stupid people, because we use them to think. Yes, even dumb people do use their brains to think. We don't really understand how our brains work, so some of us try to sound smart by pontificating about our mysterious brains.Here are some widespread myths about our brains:We only use [choose one: 10%, 20%] of our brains. This silly statement makes us feel good, because it suggests that if we really try hard, we can use 30 or 40% of our brains and make more money or get laid more or dazzle folks with our wit, or this or that. Problem is that no neurologist will agree with this statement, and no one quite knows even where it came from.It's one of those feel-good statements that is complete nonsense. We use all of our brains. Even total idiots are using all of their brains most of the time, strange as it may seem.There are parts of the brain that are emotional and parts of t...

Finally, a Post You Can Sink Your Teeth Into!
2008-04-28 21:09:00 One can learn a lot of interesting things working at Google.I was surprised to learn, for example, how easy it is to be turned into a werewolf.I am not at liberty to disclose the exact nature of the project I?m working on, but I don?t think that I?m spilling any state secrets by revealing to you that it?s related to lycanthropy. You might have guessed as much, yes?During the course of this project I?ve done a fair amount of research on werewolves. Most of the information I?ve come across is fairly banal: the werewolf?s vulnerability to silver, his aversion to bright light, his susceptibility to wolfsbane due to that plant?s origin as a weed that sprouted from a puddle of drool of the the demon dog Cerberus, etc.Now I know I've been a little out of touch lately, but I think I still know my readership well enough to place all of you into one of two classes: (1) Those of you who are interested in becoming a werewolf, and (2) Those of you who are interested in avoiding becoming a w...

Nightly Ramble: Rejudging WWII, the Passport Nonsense.
2008-03-22 04:04:00 Billy, I have to tell you, I’m not convinced we were weakened to the point of not being able to deal with the Soviets out of hand. I think it far more likely we hadn’t the will, because after so long of fighting the Nazis, the Communists seemed less of a problem. I think the issue was that misjudgment. A lot of that misjudgment, frankly came from FDR in my view, who made the country safe for socialism by introducing it here. I’m also less than convinced an Sov-Nazi alliance was out of the question, had we not beaten Hitler.Both he and Stalin each had a habit of making alliances as they saw advantage. Face it, man.. in the end their goals were similar, if not identical. Facism is leftism, as Goldberg notes, after all. Didn’t mean they’d not be coming to blows eventually…And I agree they would eventually. Their egos were too large to have it come down any other way.In the end, though Patton had it best; We’re going to end up fighting a war ...

Two Pieces of Nonsense Yesterday about Bill Clinton and Barack Obama
2008-02-19 20:06:00 As primary voting is underway today in Wisconsin and Hawaii, I wanted to comment briefly on two campaign issues which received considerable media coverage yesterday.1. Bill Clinton's heated lecture to a person at a Hillary Clinton rally waving a big anti-abortion sign has been cited - by Fox News and others - as a return to his self-centered aggressive campaigning, which may be hurting more than helping Hillary.My take on this: Nonsense - it's good and helpful for a former President to take a strong stand on this issue, whenever possible, whether or not he's campaigning for his wife. More specifically, it was not Clinton's aggressive style, or his insertion of himself into Hillary Clinton's campaign, that caused problems for Hillary a few weeks ago, and received criticism from lots of people, including me. It was the nature of Bill Clinton's attacks on Obama.And, clearly, a verbal exchange with an anti-abortion protester is not at all the same as an attack on Hillary Clint...

manchester utd the richest club? what a load of nonsense!
2008-02-14 10:42:00 Recent news headlines have brazenly suggested that the finances of Manchester Utd are in rude health, and that in a few seasons to come, they will become the richest club in the world. I have picked a few examples of these news stories from Sky Sports, BBC News, and The Telegraph, and in each of these, if you carefully read the articles, nowhere do they mention the word debt. All of them refer to revenues and not overall financials, and to be fair, that is the basis of the report from Deloitte and Touch entitled "Deloitte Football Money League 2008" with data from the 2006/2007 season. The problem with these types of headlines is that by omitting to take into consideration the overall financials of a club (which includes debt) this generally gives a completely wrong impression to the normal fan on the street - unless you happen to chance on these Manchester Utd fans who are more realistic about...

While I agree with some of his points, I can't help coming away feeling that this post just gives the wrong impression. It is pretty obvious that Pogue spends a lot of time playing with products (check out the list of Apple How-to books!), but the news flash is (no pun intended), playing with products is a lot different from making them.

Sam Lutfi Barfs Nonsense Out His Sickening Mouth
2008-02-06 19:14:00 Sam Lutfi's gravy train is currently resting comfortably in the nuthouse. So, with no one to drug into oblivion, Sam has turned to blabbing to celeb rags as a way of filling the empty hours.Us Weekly caught up with Sam, who is currently under a restraining order which prevents him from visiting Batshitney in UCLA's ward for those suffering a marbles deficit. Sam spoke of the roller coaster ride Britney's life has become."In the depressive episodes, it's all crying," Lutfi said. "But in the manic episode, there's very little crying or sympathy or compassion. She becomes another person. She becomes somebody that just doesn't care about anybody or anything."She becomes you in other words.Sam explains the wacky British accent."The British accent is part of the mania," he adds.

But you know, when the pink wig comes on, it's getting bad."How many times has he said that now?Sam recalls the night they h...

More Staged Britney Nonsense
2008-01-29 18:34:00 Tonight we bring you another episode of Britney Spears: Ride the Crazy Train. In the latest installment, Britney has a confrontation with her manager Sam Lutfi. A distraught Brit calls boyfriend Adnan Ghalib to come over straight away and rescue her from the enraged Sam. But Sam tells the security guards to keep Adnan out. And someone calls the LAPD to keep back all the paps trying to get a picture of the mayhem!Adnan's photo agency releases a statement explaining his role in the tomfoolery:Adnan did not try to break into Britney’s house. Anyone who claims that to be the case has been severely misinformed. The truth is that Sam Lutfi started an argument with Britney and the two ended up in a screaming fight. Sam continued to verbally abuse Britney as she sat barefoot on the curb at her Summit home crying holding her dog London. Britney called Adnan for help and he heard the distress in her voice and drove to the Summit immediately. While outside the gates he was denied acces...

To my surprise ET completely misdirected the readers with that headline. The reality is that out of the total Indians that have shopped online most of them have used credit cards for purpose of online transactions - 84% to be precise, which is third highest in the world percentage wise Here are some of the interesting and real findings from the Nielsen survey:

It is a commentary on the breadth and depth of his impact that so many people want to claim his legacy.

And, you have almost single-handedly made poverty an issue in this election.You know as well as anyone that the 37 million peopl...
If the Associated Press Wrote Product Warnings
2008-01-22 05:58:00 Recently I came across a very disturbing news item on Yahoo. Here is a quote:"More and more foods bear a mishmash of warnings that they might accidentally contain ingredients that could seriously sicken people with food allergies. Yet there are signs that the labels are creating confusion among families that should heed them ? even as new testing shows there is a real, if probably small, chance that foods with even the most vaguely worded warnings truly pose a risk." - Food Label Warnings Seen as Confusing, Yahoo!

Now if it was me, I'd write something like:You know those labels that you see all over food packages these days that war...
Sushmita Sen?s no-nonsense attitude
2008-01-21 18:45:00 Sushmita Sen may not have been commercially as successful as her contemporaries, but the lady sure is known for her determination and no-nonsense attitude. Recently, Sush returned the signing amount of Rs.2.1 million to producer Vijay Galani who had signed her up for a movie on the ground that she did not get a detailed script of the movie on time as she had been promised.The actress had initially agreed to do the movie to be directed by Dharmesh Darshan after hearing its narration from the director in August last year. When she was paid advance money out of her total fee of Rs.10.25 million, it was agreed that a bound script would be sent to her in November.But instead of a script, what she received was a piece of paper in which the director had briefly outlined her role in the movie. Moreover, the role therein was totally different from the one briefed out to her earlier.Moreover, with Sush backing out from the project, Govinda, the movie’s leading man, also walked out of it...

Patriarchal Nonsense & Other Musings
2008-01-10 06:00:00 Well, this morning the baby spit-up on my new cashmere pants, and Mags is experimenting with replying, "no," to everything I say to him. So I'm feeling a bit crotchety at the moment. This is not helped by the knowledge that it wasn't my brightest decision ever to wear brand new cashmere pants around the baby, as knowing that you're responsible for your own misfortune doesn't tend to do much for your mood. So I'm going to begin by venting my spleen on the anti-male strain of feminism. (Yes, I continue to obstinately separate feminism into different parts, since I'm not willing to throw the baby out with the bathwater, to use a somewhat inappropriate metaphor.) What brings this to mind is Camille Paglia's recent criticism of Hillary Clinton as having a, "disdain for masculinity." To be honest, I'm not enough of a student of Clinton to say have an opinion on the accuracy of Paglia's assessment. I am, however, familiar with the attitude that ...
General Nonsense On Iraq And The Media
2008-01-08 00:29:00 I should probably be more respectful towards Gen. Peter Pace, the former head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, but it?s difficult.I mean, even though he was punked by Robert Gates here (not renominated as Head of the Joint Chiefs to disallow the possibility of Congress asking him questions about Iraq ? nice), he still managed to lose sympathy points with me based on the following excerpt from this New York Times article today?Just days earlier, in his valedictory address as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Peter Pace used his final minutes as the nation?s highest-ranking officer to describe how his interactions with Congress and the news media had soured him on both.?In some instances right now we have individuals who are more interested in making somebody else look bad than they are in finding the right solution,?

The Dance of the Ten Problems
2008-01-02 19:16:00 Wow, where does the time go? According to Steve Miller, it keeps slippin' slippin' slippin' into the future, but then he also spoke of the pompitous of love, so that tells you how much he knows.2008. What is up with that? When I was growing up, it was kind of assumed that time would never progress beyond 1999. That's why we made everything out of styrofoam and dumped our motor oil behind the garage. In science fiction movies and pop songs, 1999 was the cutoff for a mythical future that would never actually arrive. In 1975 there was a TV show called Space:1999 that was so horrendously bad that the writers clearly didn't expect human civilization to last until next Thursday, much less the next millennium.
