This is sad

I know we’ve talked about making a food composter. Maybe we ALL should. This is disturbing, knowing all of the places in the world that does not have access to even basic nutrition.

“You’d never know it if you saw what was ending up in your landfill. As it turns out, Americans waste an astounding amount of food — an estimated 27 percent of the food available for consumption, according to a government study — and it happens at the supermarket, in restaurants and cafeterias and in your very own kitchen. It works out to about a pound of food every day for every American.”

PSA: catalytic converter theft epidemic

Interesting article and news to keep your eye on. Pretty sad what some people will do for a little money.

“Forget the rims, and never mind the stereo. Modern thieves looking for a serious payoff are skipping the obvious old staples and crawling underneath your car in search of the real prize: the catalytic converter.”

Ruins of Neverland Ranch

Pictures and article showing the state of Neverland Ranch.

The merry-go-round stands rusting and lifeless. An elaborate floral display that used to stand proudly at the front of the mansion has wilted, leaving just bare earth.

The tepees are collapsing in on themselves and a tent covering the bumper cars is falling to bits.

Women in jeans ‘cannot be raped’

Italy’s highest court has ruled that a woman wearing jeans cannot be raped.

The Supreme Court of Appeal in Rome on Wednesday overturned a rape conviction, saying that the supposed victim must have agreed to sex because her jeans could not have been removed without her consent.

Hindsight is always 20/20

Just ran across this old article and got a good chuckle out of it.

Quotey quote:

Kmart has decided not to carry Blu-ray players due to their high prices, instead focusing solely on HD DVD this holiday. While it may no longer be the bastion of discount stores it once was, Kmart’s move highlights the problems facing Sony’s format as HD DVD continues to get cheaper.”

Must be a bunch of shirtless dudes….

“Consumer Advocacy” is dpixel8′s Middle Name

Just ran across an article that interested me, but didn’t hold my attention long enough to read it in its entirety. I thought to myself, “this would be and article and reaction posting better suited to Dpixel8″. And here it is. With tangy, bite-size snippet.

“There is little oversight of a system retailers call “civil recovery,” created by special laws passed in all 50 states. With no proof of theft, the retailers demand money — often $200 but sometimes far more — and promise to avoid suing if it is paid quickly. Laws vary by state, but in general, retailers can demand these sums even if the item at issue was worth far less and was quickly recovered and put back on the shelf. “

emergency room conversation

Actual Patient Interaction:

“I don’t know if you’ve talked to the trauma surgeons yet, Miss Green, but they tell me everything’s fine, no internal organs were injured, and they’ll probably discharge you tomorrow after they observe you for a while. You were very lucky.”

“Where’s my boyfriend?”

“He’s talking to the police.”

“Do you think he’ll go to jail?”

“Probably.”

“Do you think he’s still mad at me?”

“I have no idea. Listen, Miss Green, I have two daughters. In fact, you’re young enough to be one of them so I hope you don’t take this as anything other than a sincere concern for you but have you ever considered that you’d be better off without this guy? I mean, you’re young, bright, and obviously very intelligent. You’ve got your whole life ahead of you, completely wide open, and I’d hate to see you end up saddled with a couple of this guy’s kids, without any support, living in some dump, and struggling through life when you could be a real success.”

“But he loves me.”

“I don’t think so.”

“How can you say that?”

“Well, he did shoot you in the vagina….”
