STOP Guillermo Vargas!!!

This is a very serious matter...
In 2007, the 'artist' Guillermo Vargas Habacuc, took a dog from the street, tied him to a rope in an art gallery, and starved him to death. For several days, the 'artist' and the visitors of the exhibition have watched emotionless the shameful 'masterpiece' based on the dog's agony, until eventually he died. Does it look like art to you? But this is not all... the prestigious Visual Arts Biennial of the Central American decided that the 'installation' was actually art, so that Guillermo Vargas Habacuc has been invited to repeat his cruel action for the biennial of 2008. PLEASE HELP STOP HIM. http://www.petitiononline.com/ea6gk/petition.html It's free of charge, there is no need to register, and it will only take 1 minute to save the life of an innocent creature.

No surprise here - this has illicited an overwhelming response of pissed off people. One of my personal favs...
"Fuck that so-called art. If there is anything that could change my mind about conceptual art it would be this. It sick that people would be SO FUCKING IGNORANT to accept this as art. Someone should tie this peice of shit to a wall so we can watch him starve and die.
Even Duchamp would not approve. And I dont think this peice is conceptual.
It is not always entirely clear what 'concept' ultimately refers to, and it runs the risk of being confused with 'intention.' Thus, in describing or defining a work of art as conceptual, it is important not to confuse what is referred to as 'conceptual' with an artists 'intention.'
This is INTENTION. Fuck guillermo!"

Someone please tell me how this works. HOW!!??

Tapas!

Cruzin the beeyotch and came across an awesome mediterranean tapas restaurant. It was decently priced, BYOB and had the best mushrooms I've ever tasted. I tried paella for the first time ever and enjoyed these yummy dough-ball roll things that they had. It is definitely one of my new fav places!!!
I was waxing nostalgic though....I started thinking about my one previous tapas experience, which made me think of going to Spain...and now i really want to go somewhere!!

Sean Paul’s songs sparked woman’s seizures

Post-brain surgery, the 25-year-old can safely listen to her favorite artist

Thurs., Jan. 17, 2008

GARDEN CITY, N.Y. - Now that surgeons have operated on Stacey Gayle's brain, her favorite musician no longer makes her ill. Four years after being diagnosed with epilepsy, Gayle recently underwent brain surgery at Long Island Jewish Medical Center to cure a rare condition known as musicogenic epilepsy.

Gayle, a 25-year-old customer service employee at a bank in Alberta, Canada, was suffering as many as 10 grand mal seizures a day, despite being treated with medications designed to control them. The condition became so bad she eventually had to quit her job and leave the church choir where she sang.

Eighteen months ago, she began to suspect that music by reggae and hip-hop artist Sean Paul was triggering some of her seizures. She recalled being at a barbecue and collapsing when the Jamaican rapper's music started playing, and then remembered having a previous seizure when she heard his music.

Her suspicions were confirmed on a visit to the Long Island medical center last February, when she played Paul's hit "Temperature" on her iPod for doctors. Soon after, she suffered three seizures.

"Being that the seizures could be triggered by the music, this was a very interesting opportunity to study Stacey's brain," said Dr. Ashesh Mehta, the hospital's director of epilepsy surgery.

During the first surgery, doctors implanted more than 100 electrodes in the right side of her brain to pinpoint the abnormal area of her brain.

The surgeons followed that procedure with a second surgery to remove the electrodes, along with parts of her brain suspected of causing the seizures.

"We used the latest techniques, including image guidance, to pinpoint the areas of abnormality, and the operating microscope to perform the procedure during a four-hour operation," Mehta said.

Within three days, the woman was released from the hospital and has not experienced a seizure since.

"I always live each day like it's my last," she said. "I want to show others that life does not end at epilepsy. I know I have what it takes to succeed."

That Would Suck

Thrash Unreal

Find me by the speaker, bouncing in my skull
Tell if its you and if you're bringing it all
Pull me even closer, hold me to your neck
Tell if its you and are you bringing it all

I Can't Sleep

I have been lying in bed tossing and turning for the past two hours. Anyone who truly knows me is highly aware of what a rock I am when it comes to slumber, so it is beyond rare when I am unable to sleep until there just aint no more sleep to be had. 

I got up and drank some water. Returned to the kitchen for some soy milk. Went back for some toast and peanut butter (sorry Katie, both the bread and spread is yours - i totally owe you). I contemplated watching some tivo but that didnt seem satisfactory. I really just want to go to bed!! I came in at 130 and awoke at 430 - not enough!!! Read? Yoga? NO...i just want to sleep. 

Soon i found myself blackberry harassing people. Trying to wake up the world so someone can suffer with me...needless to say I have a lot of unreturned messages right now. Obviously this is what I have come up with, which isnt bad considering i rarely WRITE something on here...interesting or not. Napalm Death greeted me when i opened up the Mac...as you can see, its not a good morning! I switched to The Klaxons for a more soothing approach.

My alarm just started going off. Today will be the only day in 2008 that I dont sleep straight through it for the next 3 hours until it gives up and turns itself off. Today I will show up to work "on time" aka before the 10am hour. I am thinking that I will go into the office crazy early, do some horrid and much needed filing, and take off early as my reward    xoxoxo Tired

I went down on my bicycle (yes, i was sober)and have a collection of scabs, scrapes, bruises and booboo's to show for it. I am surprised how quickly they are healing up though, thanks to my rigorous regimen of vitamin E oil and neosporin. They still hurt like a muthaf'r tho.

GAS PRICES RISE TO NEW NATIONAL RECORD: The cost of filling up the family car jumped to a record high Tuesday, adding to the challenges consumers already face with falling home values and rising food prices. Gas prices at the pump rose overnight to a record national average of $3.2272 a gallon, according to AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. That's a tad higher than the previous record of $3.2265, set last May.

Beef Recall Follows Animal-Abuse Scandal

The Department of Agriculture ordered the recall of 143 million pounds of beef produced by a Southern California meat processor on Sunday. Some beef was destined for school lunch programs and low-income families.

The beef recall — the largest in U.S. history — comes after a widening animal-abuse scandal.

Tattoo Method Shows Promise as Vaccine Delivery System

Exciting studies now suggest that injecting DNA-containing vaccines with a tattoo gun (lacking the ink that normally creates the tattoo) is far more effective than the way human vaccines are now delivered.
A German study published this month in Genetic Vaccines and Therapy showed that administering pieces of DNA from the human papillomavirus virus into the skin of mice by three tattoo-gun injections produced a 200-fold greater production of antibodies to the virus than was achieved with the old method of a needle injection into a muscle.
The reason that tattoo injections are so much more effective is thought to be because the repeated puncturing of the skin by the rotating tattoo needle does real damage to the skin — the presence of a bona fide wound causes inflammatory cells to flood into the site, where they speed and enhance the immune response to the vaccine.
This skin damage, however, is also painful, and this fact may limit the application of the tattoo-injection technique for routine vaccinations. But the new technique shows promise for the use of DNA injections to treat, rather than prevent, diseases like cancer or possibly even HIV infection, where potential benefits would outweigh the pain of the injections.
The use of tattoo injections, coupled with the ability to rapidly produce large quantities of a vaccine, might prove extraordinarily valuable in a situation such as a threatened terrorist attack, where a sudden need arises for large amounts of an effective vaccine.

Pot vending machines take root in L.A. -Machines distribute the drug to people with cards authorizing use - The Associated Press -updated 4:01 a.m. PT, Wed., Jan. 30, 2008

LOS ANGELES - The city that popularized the fast food drive-thru has a new innovation: 24-hour medical marijuana vending machines. At least three dispensaries in the city have installed vending machines to distribute the drug to people who carry cards authorizing marijuana use.

It took seven months to develop and patent the black, armored box, which he calls the "PVM," or prescription vending machine. The computerized machine requires fingerprint identification and a prepaid card with a magnetic stripe. Once the card and fingerprint are verified, a bright green envelope with the pot drops down a slot.Any user approved for medical marijuana and registered in a computer database at his dispensaries can pre-purchase the drug and then use the machine to pick up.

With the advice of doctors, there is a limit to the amount of marijuana per user to an ounce per week. Each purchase from the machine yields 1/8th or 2/8th of an ounce. By eliminating a vendor behind the counter, he said, the machine offers users lower drug prices. The 1/8th ounce packet would cost about $40 — $20 lower than the average price at other dispensaries.

Simply exquisite. Never enough. He always leaves you unsatisfied. The ultimate creator.
Despite being ridiculously talented when it comes to musicianship he is entirely captivating on his own.




I have realized that back-up bands that are their own unit - with a seperate name and all- are SOOOO much better than any "real", group band will ever be. They KNOW they are bad ass. They know they surpass any run-of-the-mill band that may have more *stardom* than they dont give a shit cause they dont need all of that. They are authentic, true to the skill, killer musicians!! Nothing else needs to be said. No image. No gimmick. Nothing. They are music - true to the bit. Now i truly feel bad for anyone who isnt in a tight-knit back-up band that can overtake large venues, stick together through thick and thin and make better music while doing so.
beautiful voice. beautiful person. Please tell me another hilarious story consisting of the mundane that is our life.

NKOTB!

After months of speculation and rumor, the Kids are coming back. A well-placed source says that New Kids On The Block are indeed getting back together.

The band's Web site, www.nkotb.com, which had been dormant, is now back up and running in anticipation of the official announcement, which the source says will be made in the next few weeks.

Eighteen years later, they're still "Hangin' Tough." The oldest "Kid," Jonathan Knight, now a real estate developer, will turn 40 later this year. Since the band's demise, former members Donnie Wahlberg, 38, and Joey McIntyre, 35, have seen acting success, while Danny Wood, 38, has worked as a music producer and Knight's brother, Jordan(MY FAVORITE!), 37, has continued to record.
