does this mean I can't get my drugs from Canada?

This is a little freaky. Internet companies selling "fake" prescription drugs without even requiring a prescription. Sounds like something that can easily be avoided by common sense and education, but when you take a step back and think about it, what's going to stop an impoverished African buying an online drug and taking his chances at its effects? Put in that position, wouldn't you? What I want to know, is what kind of sick twisted freak is trying to sell fake drugs to people desperate enough to take a chance like that? The report I found said that the sale of fake drugs is increasing rapidly, and that 50% of the drugs found in these markets are indeed fake.

neat, yes, but necessary?

This isn't exactly what I would have predicted for the personal computers of the next decade to come equipped with. Apparently, fragrance cartridges will come with computers, to allow users to not only listen to their favorite music while working, but smell their favorite smells as well! Sensors in the computer will use the internet to deliver data about smells that will please the user. (At least I hope the smells will be meant to please!) This forecast was from a South Korean survey, which was compiled after interviewing over 3,000 Asian technology experts. survey also revealed that scientists are working on tiny robots meant to swim through our bloodstreams to target problems, phones that can go three months without charging, and military dress that changes to match its surroundings better. I have to say, the scientists working on the fragrance cartridges might find themselves more useful if they decided to help with the robots instead...

makes my heart smile...

There's not much else to say about this...I guess I'm still very much a sappy little girl at heart. But c'mon, who DOESN'T melt at this???

Apparently, these twin tigers and twin orang-utans , who were all abandoned at birth, have become an inseparable foursome. There's more pictures at the site---go, on--indulge that inner child!!

Congrats, brainiacs!

It's refreshing amidst the "Recent Iraq Death Toll" and "Spears Shaved" headlines to read Autism Gene Breakthrough Hailed". I guess this blog is an insignifigant shout-out to all those insanely intelligent people out there who could be using their brains to scam the better part of mankind but instead choose a more noble purpose. There isn't much out there more commendable than saving children from life-altering diseases. Although breakthroughs like this occur every day, this one stood out to me, being as aproximately 1 in 100 British children have some form of autism. Of course the breakthrough isn't enough to save every child out there, but it provides much hope to know that there are people out there willing to relentlessly pursue the small steps towards a bigger purpose--a cure that will probably be named after someone else.

wow, britney...can we say "drama queen"???

So...Britney Spears shaved off all her hair. Not cut, but shaved. I have to say, it's impressive, but unimpressive at the same time. Impressive that she allowed her vanity to leave her for that split second decision, BUT unimpressive at the same time, because it kinda screams "look how not-vain I am, look at me, look at me, LOOK AT ME!" But...apparently she's checked into rehab after doing so, so she COULD have been under the influence of something powerful enough to rid the pop princess of her vanity, even if only for a minute.

very very creepy.

So...my boyfriend showed me a video on youtube about a couple who is protesting the Catholic Church by trying to break all ten commandments. It was a bit offensive (in my opinion) and kind of vulgar, but you gotta give it points for being original! (Warning: do not view with children.)
