DO YOU PLAY FARMVILLE?

Do you play  or have heard of the online game FarmVille, played by a reported 82 million Facebookers?It is equally addictive, but even less constructive.

One man's fascination (addiction?) with the cute real-time farming simulation has cost him his job, according to novinite.com, a Bulgarian news site.
On the other side of the planet, in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, a place where one can easily imagine plenty of real farm animals, a councilman has been ousted for "milking virtual cows" during important meetings.
Farmville enthusiast Dimitar Kerin “needs more time for his virtual farm” said the man who made the motion to dismiss him.
Kerin, according to novinite.com, alleges he is not the only one in the City Hall watering virtual eggplants. He said he had reached only Level 40, whereas Daniela Zhelyazkova, another councilor, was already at Level 46. so moral of the story, don't be an asshole and lose your job over the internet.

IT CAN NEVER GET THIS BAD

The man who plunged to his death in an apparent suicide jump off the Empire State building was a junior from Yale University.
Twenty-one-year-old Cameron Dabaghi from Austin, Texas, jumped from the 86th floor Tuesday. That floor has an observation deck open to the public.

He was dead when rescue workers arrived at the 102-story skyscraper shortly before 6:30 p.m.
The university said in a statement that it was extending support to the student's family and friends, and making counselors available.
The Empire State Building is the third-tallest building in the United States. More than 30 people have committed suicide at the building since it opened in 1931. The most recent was believed to have been in 2006. Remind me that it can never get that bad. i'm never that mad at myself that I need to kill myself

JESSE JAMES CAUGHT THE TIGER DISEASE

This is no suprise but apparently Jesse James reportedly is seeking professional help to deal with "personal issues" after a cheating scandal that has put his nearly five-year marriage to Sandra Bullock on the line. His representative told People magazine in a statement Tuesday that James "realized that this time was crucial to help himself, help his family and help save his marriage."

The representative did not specify the type of treatment facility. I think he got the Tiger Woods syndrome and needs help wit his sexual addiction. Remind me the nbext time I get caught to blame tiger too.

DON'T GO TO HIGHSCHOOL IN SAVANNAH

Savannah-Chatham County Public School System spokesperson confirms that superintendent Dr. Thomas Lockamy is meeting with teachers and staff at Beach High School Thursday afternoon to inform them that only about half will be back at Beach next year. Others will be reassigned.

Employees are being told that they may reapply for their jobs.
Beach High School has been classified by the state as a “Needs Improvement” school for five years, a classification linked to Adequate Yearly Progress. Beach has about 950 students, 80 teachers, and 120 staff members.
Karla Redditte, the manager of public information for the school district, says only 49 percent of the current employees could be rehired to work at Beach. The other employees could still be hired at any other school within the district.
District officials say Dr. Deonn Bostic Stone, current principal at Beach, will not return as the principal next year. She will be placed in an administrative position somewhere else within the district and does not have to reapply for a position with the district. Moral of the story, don't go to high school in Savannah

If Google ever adopted this concept Google Maps Envelopes, it would certainly save you all that trouble.

Sure sounds handy, and would be especially useful for folks who still use snail mail.

Ok I told you guys facebook and twitter were for idiots, and here's the proof. Keri McMullen and Kurt Pendleton who are residents of New Albany, Indiana left a status update on their Facebook page saying they would not be home for a concert and during that same period their house was burglarized. Having recently installed cameras on the property of the house, they have footage of a man breaking into the house who they believe added them as a friend on the social networking site Facebook about six months ago. Here is Keri’s statement to CBS:


“I think the social networking sites are good to have,” she said. “You just have to be smart about it. Because just because you’re trustworthy and a nice person does not mean everyone on your Facebook is. So you can’t put your address — my address wasn’t even listed — or your phone number or that you’re home alone or going out of town

WEAR A BAG, GET A BAG

Remember the post about the bag guy @ the Nets game, well after Tuesday's "bag on the head" debacle, the Nets front office found a way to spin the story and make it the feel-good fan vs. CEO fight of the year.

The Nets had a "Bag Exchange" Wednesday night, when all fans were invited to turn in their bags for a nylon bag with the Nets logo on it, and a note from Yormark himself. The note read, "Thanks for letting us see your face, we hope we see it more often at Nets games - Regards, Brett Yormark."


The team did not promote the exchange beforehand; they merely instructed personnel to identify bag-wearers and offer to make the swap. The nylon bag will also include trading cards.
As for the original perpetrator, a gentleman from Morristown who was seated with his brother in the second row, Yormark said he invited him over for a bag lunch next week.

IPHONE APP WILL CHANGE THE GAME

For a little $1 iPhone app, Line2 sure has the potential to shake up an entire industry. Line2 gives your iPhone a second phone number -- a second phone line, complete with its own contacts list, voice mail, and so on. The company behind it, Toktumi (get it?), imagines that you'll distribute the Line2 number to business contacts, and your regular iPhone number to friends and family. Your second line can be an 800 number, if you wish, or you can transfer an existing number.

To that end, Toktumi offers, on its Web site, a raft of Google (GOOG) Voice-ish features that are intended to help a small businesses look bigger: call screening, Do Not Disturb hours and voice mail messages sent to you as e-mail. You can create an "automated attendant" -- "Press 1 for sales," "Press 2 for accounting," and so on -- that routes incoming calls to other phone numbers. Or, if you're pretending to be a bigger business than you are, route them all to yourself.
Line2 also turns the iPhone into a dual-mode phone. That is, it can make and receive calls either using either the AT&T airwaves as usual, or -- now this is the best part -- over the Internet. Any time you're in a wireless hot spot, Line2 places its calls over Wi-Fi instead of AT&T's network.

That's a game-changer. Where, after all, is cellphone reception generally the worst? Right -- indoors. In your house or your office building, precisely where you have Wi-Fi. Line2 in Wi-Fi means rock-solid, confident reception indoors.
Line2 also runs on the iPod Touch. When you're in a Wi-Fi hot spot, your Touch is now a full-blown cellphone, and you don't owe AT&T a penny.
But wait, there's more.
Turns out Wi-Fi calls don't use up any AT&T minutes. You can talk all day long, without ever worrying about going over your monthly allotment of minutes. Wi-Fi calls are free forever.
Well, not quite free; Line2 service costs $15 a month (after a 30-day free trial).

 VIA : newyorktimes

-AL


But here's one of those cases where spending more could save you money. If you're in a Wi-Fi hot spot most of the time (at work, for example), that's an awful lot of calling you can do in Wi-Fi -- probably enough to downgrade your AT&T plan to one that gives you fewer minutes. If you're on the 900-minute or unlimited plan ($90 or $100 a month), for example, you might be able to get away with the 450-minute plan ($70). Even with Line2's fee, you're saving $5 or $15 a month.

Line2 also lets you call overseas phone numbers for Skype-like rates: 2 to 5 cents a minute to most countries. (A full table of rates is available at toktumi.com.) As a handy globetrotters' bonus, calls home to numbers in the United States from overseas hot spots are free.
All of these benefits come to you when you're in a Wi-Fi hot spot, because your calls are carried by the Internet instead of by AT&T. Interestingly enough, though, Line2 can also make Internet calls even when you're not in a hot spot.
It can, at your option, place calls over AT&T's 3G data network, where it's available. Every iPhone plan includes unlimited use of this 3G network -- it's how your iPhone sends e-mail and surfs the Web. So once again, Line2 calls don't use up any of your monthly voice minutes.
Unfortunately, voice connections on the 3G network aren't as strong and reliable as the voice or Wi-Fi methods. Cellular data networks aren't made for seamless handoffs from cell tower to tower as you drive, for example -- there's not much need for it if you're just doing e-mail and Web -- so dropped calls are more likely. Fortunately, if you're on a 3G data-network call and you walk into a hot spot, Line2 switches to the more reliable Wi-Fi network seamlessly, in midcall.
Whenever you do have an Internet connection -- either Wi-Fi or a strong 3G area -- you're in for a startling treat. If you and your calling partner are both Line2 subscribers, Line2 kicks you into superhigh audio-quality mode (16-bit mode, as the techies call it).
Your calling partners sound as if they're speaking right into the mike at an FM radio station. It's almost too clear; you hear the other person's breathing, lip smacks, clothing rustling and so on. After years of suffering through awful cellphone audio, it's quite a revelation to hear what you've been missing.
Now, this all sounds wonderful, and Line2 generally is wonderful. But there's room for improvement.
First, as you've no doubt already concluded, understanding Line2 is complicated. You have three different ways to make calls, each with pros and cons.
You miss a certain degree of refinement, too. The dialing pad doesn't make touch-tone sounds as you tap the keys. There's no Favorites list within the Line2 app. You can't get or send text messages on your Line2 line. (The company says it will fix all this soon.)
There's a faint hiss on Line2 calls, as if you're on a long-distance call in 1970. The company says that it deliberately introduces this "comfort noise" to reassure you that you're still connected, but it's unnecessary. And sometimes there's a voice delay of a half-second or so (of course, you sometimes get that on regular cellphone calls, too).
Finally, a note about incoming calls. If the Line2 app is open at the time, you're connected via Wi-Fi,  if it's available. If it's not running, the call comes in through AT&T, so you lose the benefits of Wi-Fi calling. In short, until Apple blesses the iPhone with multitasking software, you have to leave Line2 open whenever you put the phone to sleep. That's awkward.
Still, Line2 is the first app that can receive incoming calls via either Wi-Fi or cellular voice, so you get the call even if the app isn't running. That's one of several advantages that distinguish it from other voice-over-Internet apps like Skype and TruPhone.
Another example: If you're on a Wi-Fi call using those other programs, and someone calls your regular iPhone number, your first call is unceremoniously disconnected. Line2, on the other hand, offers you the chance to decline the incoming call without losing your Wi-Fi call.
Those rival apps also lack Line2's call-management features, visual voice mail and conference calling with up to 20 other people. And Line2 is the only app that gives you a choice of call methods for incoming and outgoing calls.
All of this should rattle cell industry executives, because let's face it: the Internet tends to make things free. Cell carriers go through life hoping nobody notices the cellephant in the room: that once everybody starts making free calls over the Internet, it's Game Over for the dollars-for-minutes model.
Line2, however, brings us one big step closer to that very future. It's going to be a wild ride.

DID YOU KNOW: WHAT WAS THE FIRST DOT COM

Symbolics logo 25 years ago

It was 25 years ago -- March 15, 1985 -- that the first dot-com domain name -- Symbolics.com -- appeared on the Internet, ushering in the commercial age of the World Wide Web. Now everyone and their mama has a webpage or is on twitter.

Having a domain name made it simpler for the average person to access a Web site. Instead of having to remember a long series of numbers and dots, you could type in ATT.com, IBM.com or CNN.com.
Development was slow, at first. It took more than two years for the first 100 sites to go online and by 1995, the number had grown to 18,000.
But from those humble beginnings the Internet has grown to more than 80 million dot-com domain names, according to the Information Technology & Innovation Foundation. for more click the jump

THIS VIDEO GETS AKON KICKED OUT OF SRI LANKAN

Singer Akon has postponed his April concert in Sri Lanka after the island nation's government said they planned to deny his visa on Tuesday. Their announcement followed a violent incident on Monday, when more than 200 protestors in the city of Colombo threw rocks at the offices of Capital Maharaja, Akon's concert promoters. Chevan Daniel, Maharaja broadcasting's head of news, told The Associated Press that the mob - some carrying signs that read "Stop Akon Now" -- broke windows and hit cars parked near the building. Four employees were reportedly injured..

The protestors were incited by Akon's video, "Sexy Chick," the #3 hit song he recorded for Dave Guetta's One Love album..
The video features bikini-clad women dancing suggestively in front of a Buddha statue during a pool scene. The clip "triggered a lot of disappointment among Buddhists all over the world," a government spokesperson said in a statement. I'm not going to make light of anyone's religious beliefs but I think people take things way too serious.

FOUNDING MEMBER OF KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND ARRESTED FOR CHILD MOLESTATION

A music producer and co-founder of KC and the Sunshine Band responsible for such hits as "Shake Your Booty" and "Keep It Comin' Love" has acknowledged having sex with teenage boys, police said Wednesday.

Richard R. Finch, 56, was arrested Tuesday after a boy told authorities he'd had sexual contact with him at Finch's home in Newark, the Licking County sheriff's office said. The boy made the revelation last week.
Finch, while being interviewed at the sheriff's office, admitted he'd had sex with that boy and others ranging in age from 13 to 17, police said.
Finch, a former bass player for the band and a seven-time Grammy Award winner, was being held at the sheriff's office on $250,000 bond.
A message posted on the Web site of Richard Finch Productions Inc. said the allegations against the producer and song arranger were baseless.

WILL SMITH TO CHOOSE BETWEEN TWO FILMS

Will Smith is pondering which film to star in. Must be nice to be a movie star.

It's down to two choices: Sony's "Men in Black III" or 20th Century Fox's fantasy-adventure "The City That Sailed."
Each project has particular appeal for the actor.
Smith's production company Overbrook Films developed "City that Sailed" and brought it to Fox, which embraced the family property.
Penned by Andrew Niccol, "City that Sailed" revolves around a New York street magician who is unhappily separated from his young daughter. The girl, who moves to London, finds magic candles that make her wishes comes true, with unintended consequences: The island of Manhattan separates from the continent and floats toward England, bringing her dad ever closer.
There's no director yet on the project.
The "Men in Black" franchise, of course, has been a box office goldmine for Smith, and Sony. First film, released in 1997, grossed $587.8 million worldwide. The 2002 sequel earned $441.8 million globally.
It's been a while since Smith graced the bigscreen. His last film, Sony's drama "Seven Pounds," was released in December 2008 which I finally saw last week and it wasn't a bad film. If I was a betting man I would say he going to do another Men In Black film. That way he gets two checks since his production company is already producing the other film.

STATES AND CITIES GETS RANKED BY PENIS SIZE

America’s first condom store, Condomania (Condomania.com), has just unlocked its huge database of penis sizes and released these unique rankings of the 50 states and the 20 most populated U.S. cities by average penis size. After 20 years in business, Condomania knows perhaps more than anyone else about the nation’s penises.

So just how does Condomania know these intimate details? In 2004, the company launched TheyFit Condoms, the world’s first line of tailored-fit prophylactics, in 76 sizes. Since then they have sold custom-fit condoms to over 27,000 men in 70 countries, and now have just begun to analyze this incredible cache of data.
“These fitted condoms range in length from 3 to 10 inches and from super slim to extra roomy.” says Chris Filkins, Condomania’s Directory of Technology. “After gathering detailed information on over 27,000 penises, we now have the most comprehensive database of penis sizes on the planet! Needless to say, these men’s privacy is our utmost concern, and we’re interested only in the statistics, and not who’s who! But the data itself is pretty interesting.”
Previously, the largest formal survey of penis sizes was conducted in 1948 by the famous Kinsey researchers, when 2,500 men recorded their erect penis sizes on pre-stamped cards.
If you believe that a lot of men wear TheyFit condoms you can see the ranking for the cities when you jump. I'm just glad I don't live in Wyoming.

ANN COULTER CAUSING CONTROVERSY

She’s crude as Chelsea Lately, but she’s not trying to be funny. According to the AP conservative author/personality Ann Coulter was getting into all sorts of drama while on a three city tour of Canada.



At her first stop…


When answering questions from students, Coulter told a 17-year-old Muslim student to “take a camel” instead of the flying carpet she has previously suggested Muslims use for transportation. Coulter later told CTV that the “camel” remark was a joke.


And at her second stop…


A protest by hundreds of students led organizers to cancel a Tuesday night speech by American conservative commentator Ann Coulter at the University of Ottawa. A spokesman for the organizers said Coulter was advised against appearing after about 2,000 “threatening” students crowded the entrance to Marion Hall, posing a security threat.


“What Ann Coulter is practicing is not free speech, it’s hate speech,” he said. “She’s targeted the Jews, she’s targeted the Muslims, she’s targeted Canadians, homosexuals, women, almost everybody you could imagine.”

BAG PROTEST ARE BACK

The ol' bag-on-the-head fan protest is almost as old as sports itself. Or at least as old as those ancient days when the New Orleans Saints weren't winning regular season games, let alone Super Bowls. It's only natural that some New Jersey Nets fan would sport the paper at some point during this disastrous season.

Well, it happened last night. And Nets CEO Brett Yormark wasn't too pleased.


With the Nets trailing 79-67 between the third and fourth quarters, Yormark left his courtside seat and passed Chris Lisi of Middletown, N.J., who was sitting in the second row and wearing a paper bag over his head. Yormark then walked back toward Lisi, and in full view of reporters and photographers got into a shouting match with Lisi and a pal.
A Yormark spokesperson said the executive had no comment regarding the incident, but Lisi claimed that Yormark had incited it by asking him why he had the bag over his head. When Lisi sarcastically answered, "Because the Nets are so good," Yormark snapped at him

Hell maybe we should put a bag over the players heads. Maybe then they would score.

THERE ARE CERTAIN THINGS I WILL NOT DO

This is just wrong.

A video taken at Crufts last weekend proves the point, but it needs a little explaining. A prize-winning Bulldog, according to the Kennel Club breed standard, ought to “convey an impression of determination, strength and activity”. The problem is: how to make a bored Bulldog look like this?



The handlers in the show ring seem to have found a method, which as the video shows, has become almost universally popular: hold the dog’s head steady by grasping his collar with your left hand, and with your right hand, gently tickle the base of his scrotum. This action with the right hand is guaranteed to make any dog stand still, while adopting an understandably “questioning” facial expression. Apparently this can boost his prize-winning chances.

I PUT MY KIDS UP FOR SALE BUT NO ONE BOUGHT THEM EITHER

Police are searching for a man accused of offering to sell his son on Craigslist for $5,000.
In the ad, the father identified himself as a single parent dad by the name of "Rick" who has run out of child care options.
"Gavin is a great kid but I can no longer afford to take care of him," the ad said. "I don't know what else to do other than find a good family with kids or a couple that wants a son. I just won't give him to anyone."
"loves playing with balls, but doesn't really like to play with cars and refuses to eat vegetables."
"He doesn't fuss very much but when he does, he just screams for hours. I usually just put him in the closet until he stops, and that usually works,"the posting said.
Obviously this ad was some kind of joke. I mean who would use the internet to sell a kid. I like flyers myself.

UNIVERSAL MUSIC DROPPING PRICES

In an attempt once again to save the music industry and profits, Universal Music Group (UMG) is embarking on one of the most ambitious efforts yet to boost U.S. CD sales, with the test of a new pricing structure designed to sell most new releases by current artists at $10 or less at retail. The major's "Velocity" pricing program responds to the continuing plunge in CD sales, taking aim at brick-and-mortar retail stores that have scaled back on floor space dedicated to music. The pricing adjustments will also bring CD prices more in line with what consumers pay for digital albums at online retailers like iTunes and Amazon.

RICH PEOPLE GETTING REPOSSESED

The repo men are now jacking rich people. Ken Cage isn't your typical repo man. Rather than snatch cars from an over-extended middle class, he takes back yachts, planes and other toys from the over-leveraged rich.

Business is thriving, even as the economy begins to improve. His company, Orlando-based International Recovery Group, repossessed more than 700 boats, planes, helicopters and other property last year valued at more than $100 million. Business, he says, is up six-fold from 2007.
He has reclaimed everything from $18 million Gulfstream jets and Bell helicopters to 110-foot Broward yachts, $500,000 recreational vehicles and even a racehorse. Before the financial crisis, most of the luxury items he pulled in were valued between $30,000 and $50,000. Today, they are valued at $200,000 to $300,000—meaning defaults are hitting people at a much higher income level.
