EPA needs to slow down

ha ha ha, who signed off on this commercial? lol keep spending your money on "clean coal" ads guys because no one is believing your shit.

The NY MTA lies to you daily.

I love this guy.

But the F-train Vigilante is not as concerned with this component of the campaign - his focus is on the in-car announcements that take place during his morning commute:


"Ladies and Gentleman, this is a reminder that your personal belongings are subject to search by the New York City Police Department..."

It's this announcement which causes the 4th amendment vigilante to stand up and address his fellow passengers in a loud and steady voice:

"Ladies and Gentleman, the announcement you have just heard is misleading: No, the fourth Amendment to the United States constitution has not been repealed- If the NYPD wants to search your property without relying on probable cause and they do not have a warrant, then they have to get your consent, and you can say no."

Global Debt infographic from Fortune August 2011

I love this infographic, there is so much information encapsulated in it.

Strinking was the relative size of the debt.

LIC Bar - Sept 5th

Hanging out at LIC Bar on labor day 2011 - great location out the back, sound is excellent.

Apparently this was first gig for  "The Turndown service"  and they absolutely powered the space. Would be a wicked sound with a larger audio stack.





Julie Kathryn sounded amazing on a big stage, lol she rocked the siren interruption at the end like a pro :)

Times change

Its interesting to see how things change over time.
At one time in the far far history “Third Voice” was seen as a game changer that had site admins outraged.
…and today - http://tech.slashdot.org/story/11/09/03/1611214/Google-To-Shut-Down-10-Products googles version of it “sidewiki” is being shut down due to lack of interest.

Hot Coffee !!

Watching #HotCoffee documentary on HBO -eye opening about how big business twisted Tort Reform -eye opening about astroturf.

I will admit i was one of the people who said "darwinism at work" about the woman who spilt coffee while driving....only she wasn't - in 5 minutes of watching this video you will change your mind on everything you thought you knew.


I strongly encourage everyone to watch this documentary (besides being good tv) it will open your eyes to inustices that will blow your brain.






P.S.
I really wish i didnt google the answer to the Jaime Leigh Jones case. This is ridiculous.

Baby moose in sprinkler

Dare you not to have your heart melted...go on i dare you.

interesting move....bet you he didn't have to hand back his golden handcuffss - AOL investors should sue under a class action.

Starz / Netflix contract

What i noticed was interesting in this article  http://venturebeat.com/2011/09/01/netflix-loses-starz-2012/   was that it is a fixed price rather than per subscriber, so as netflix signs up more users the additional users are pure profit for netflix instead of a per subscriber fee which is the way content providers work with cable networks.

Culture jacking

I know sign modification is bad, but if this is bad i dont want to be good.
