Humanity moving forward --> The intergalactic internet

http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=quantum-teleportation-with-ions

With technology like this perfected, perhaps trasmitting data would be distance-insensitive.

Consider any sentient race, on any planet. At some point, would they invent a computer ? a network ? build an internet ?

Wouldn't it be interesting if there were an intergalactic internet sitting under our nose that we could connect to at any time, if we knew how. Consider, thousands of alien species, communicating, collaborating, possibly conflicting or conspiring to find a way to visit in person, create energy, resources, technology, medical information...

It's nice to call, before you visit. Being an uninvited guest could yeild undesirable consequences.

Pregnant Sumo Wrestling

Fuck the senate

The senate approved $350 billion to some bailout bank bullshit today.

If the gonvernment is going to provide money in this way to corporations, then we are slowly converting our republic-democracy to a corporate socialism. 

Letter to Harry Reid on Thurs --> companies that get government help would be required to get approval from their primary regulator before they could pay dividends to shareholders, and they would be limited in the executive compensation they could pay out.

This means: If the goverment gives you money, the goverment makes the rules. I'm sure there's more rules.

Here's the dumb question: Why don't we bail out a health insurance company, or perhaps an oil company ?

Elevator

If you're going down in an elevator, is it still an elevator ?

The media and our economy

Every time you listen to the general news from the major networks, you hear news about how messed up the economy is. I think we all know that there are issues with the economy. That doesn't mean that the media needs to put a constant spin on the negative aspect of our situation, it just makes the situation worse.

You never hear a story about how a families are saving money, or about companies that ARE creating jobs and doing well. This good news is drowned out by the bad news. When people see all this bad new, they panic, get upset, act irrationally. When we see it over and over again, it has a severe impact on how we think about things. Because of the effect information has on people, that makes the media responsible for the poor economy.

Perhaps when money is no longer paramount to progression, will we see a change in what the news chooses to feed us.

Barak Obama - The Racist Perspective

87% of black people voted for Obama

44% of while people voted for Obama

65,404,732 People voted for Obama

57,410,574 Prople voted for McCain

There are 122,815,304 people that voted in America

There are approximately 15 Million Black voters, 94% of them voted for Obama.

So about 7,700,000 (of 122,815,304) black people voted for Obama, which is %6 of the vote. So if  Only 44% of white people voted for Obama, who were the rest ?

The other races of 'voteing america' aren't big enough to make much more of a dent in the winner.. so which part of this is wrong ?

Basically, white america voted Obama into the white house, which means that people, in majority do not vote for their own race. America seems to have gained perspective in they way they think about themselves.
