Global Warming is a SCAM, Officially...(Climate-Gate)

Global Warming is a SCAM, Officially...(Climate-Gate)

Another interesting video from Drinking With Bob on YouTube. This video is about the recent emails (hundreds of them) that were uncovered after the servers of The Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, one of the United Kingdom’s leading climate research centers, were hacked.

Yup, Climate Gate has begun, and Al Gore is none too pleased.

Btw, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart didn't ignore this story, like many of the other news networks did! Seems reporting on Tiger Woods and the meal selection at the president's State Dinner was far more important to them than a MAJOR scandal regarding climate change and global warming.

All I have to say is thank goodness for Comedy Central!

Global Warming is a SCAM, Officially...(Climate-Gate)

A little over the top, but here's a related video:

Invisible Speakers from Emo Labs

Invisible Speakers from Emo Labs

Here's a cool idea...invisible speakers. Yes, invisible. Emo Labs has developed a revolutionary new technology that turns a TV screen (or a computer screen) into an actual speaker. Instead of the sound emerging from regular speakers like we're used to, it actually comes right out of the screen itself.


The technology is called "Edge Motion," and how it works is pretty darn impressive. A very thin, clear membrane (the actual speaker) is embedded on the TV screen. A thin piezo actuator inside moves back and forth against the membrane and microflexes it, thus, creating the sound.

The end result is excellent sound quality without having to have speakers that take up valuable space. And this is good news since products like flatscreen TVs and laptops keep getting thinner and thinner. With a technology like Emo Labs' Edge Motion speaker system, manufacturers won't have to worry about where to fit the speakers. The speakers will be right in the screen itself. Cool.

Emo Labs' Edge Motion speaker systems can be used in a variety of consumer electronics, such as: Flatscreen TV's, laptops, digital photo frames, gaming consoles, PDAs, portable DVDs, GPS units and more.

Edge Motion Invisible Speakers in Action

Here are two video demos with Jason Carlson, the CEO of Emo Labs, showing how this new audio technology works. The videos were taken at the DEMO 2009 conference in San Diego, California.

Girl Missing Since 1991 Finally Found - Alive!

Girl Missing Since 1991 Finally Found - Alive!

In news that is so very rare in these cases, it seems that a woman, who was kidnapped as a young girl at the age of eleven way back in 1991, has finally been found. And what's best, is that she's actually alive!

Missing Found Alive

The Return of Jaycee Lee Dugard

Jaycee Lee Dugard, who was a blond, ponytailed, 11-year-old girl when she was abducted right in front of her stepfather as she headed to a school bus stop 18 years ago, has finally made her way to freedom, and is soon to be reunited with her parents.

The woman walked into a San Francisco Bay area police station and said she was Jaycee Lee Dugard, the girl who had been kidnapped 18 years ago. And thankfully, it doesn't seem to be just some misguided loony claiming to be the kidnapped girl. According to Lt. Les Lovell of the El Dorado Sheriff's Department, they're actually about 99% sure that it's her.

Her family has been contacted, and they're currently in the process of arranging a meeting. Carl Probyn, Jaycee Lee Dugard's stepfather, said that the news was "like winning a lottery." I'll bet! Wow, can you imagine how happy they must feel right now?! I'm majoryly hyped just knowing about it!

Update: Jaycee Lee Dugard (not Kaycee Lee Dugard, for those who've been misspelling it) was reunited with her mother, who was overjoyed to learn that her daughter, who she thought was dead, was actually alive and well. :)

Arrest of the Lowlife Scumbags

And as if this story couldn't get any better, the authorities have also arrested the two lowlife scumbags, 58-year-old Phillip Garrido and his 54-year-old wife Nancy Garrido, who are suspected of being the kidnappers.


According to Yahoo! News, "Phillip Garrido is also being held for investigation of rape by force, lewd and lascivious acts with a minor and sexual penetration, said Jimmie Lee, a spokesman for the Contra Costa Sheriff's Department.

Phillip Garrido has a conviction for rape by force or fear, and was paroled from a Nevada state prison in 1999, according to the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation."


Apparently, California corrections officials called Phillip Garrido in for questioning on Wednesday after they received a report that he had been seen with two small children at the University of California in Berkeley. When he arrived, he was accompanied by two children and two adult women.

According to Yahoo! News: "The diligent questioning and follow-up by the parolee's agent of record led to Garrido revealing his kidnapping of the adult female," the department said in a statement. "It was further revealed by Garrido that she was Jaycee Lee Dugard, and that the children were his."

Update: Law enforcement officials now believe that Jaycee Lee Dugard was kept in a shed and used a sex slave for Phillip Garrido and his wife Nancy Garrido. Assholes. Jaycee apparently became pregnant several times during her captivity and had at least two children. Those children made Garrido's parole officer suspicious, which led to his arrest.

Let's just hope that these two worthless mofos are behind bars for the rest of their lives!
