Is the tech sector hostile to women?
A series of events straight from the fraternity house makes things worse in a field already rife with sexism.
The website Business Insider came under fire this week for the outrageous Twitter comments of Pax Dickinson, its now former chief technology officer.
Dickinson (pictured) had been dropping some jaw-droppingly offensive bits on Twitter for some time now, but people started getting fired up when he said this on Monday: "feminism in tech remains the champion topic for my block list. my finger is getting tired."
It didn't take much probing to find several other examples of things a technology executive should really never say. "A man who argues on behalf of feminism is a tragic figure of irony, like a Jewish Nazi," he mused last year.
Another message said basketball star LeBron James has more dedication, ambition and drive because he raped an entire city. Kobe Bryant "only raped one girl."
People are prone to dumb comments on Twitter, but Dickinson was in a position of power and hired software developers. So people noticed when he said things like "Tech managers spend as much time worrying about how to hire talented female developers as they do worrying about how to hire a unicorn."
At first, Business Insider's Henry Blodget tried to sweep the issue away, telling Valleywag that Dickinson "was speaking for himself, not Business Insider." But the criticism continued, and within a day Dickinson was gone.
Can it get worse? Oh yes. Let's cruise on over to last weekend's TechCrunch conference. In the first presentation of the day, two programmers unveiled an app that will take pictures of you while you're looking at women's breasts. The programmers did admit that "women just aren't that warm to it," Salon reports, and probably could have asked any woman cringing in the audience for confirmation.
That was followed by a presentation about "Circle Shake," which included a man pretending to masturbate. Yes, children were in the audience, and no, that didn't seem to impact anyone's judgment.
TechCrunch, which is owned by AOL (AOL), later apologized. "Sexism is a major problem in the tech industry, and we've worked hard to counteract it in our coverage and in our own hiring," co-editors Alexia Tsotsis and Eric Eldon said in a note on the site.
TechCrunch linked to an article in MIT Technology Review noting how gender bias helps push an estimated 3,000 women with doctorate degrees out of the scientific workforce every year. That article was from 2008, but clearly things haven't improved much.
This is an industry dominated by "brogrammers," one that pays women 49 cents to every man's dollar. That alone sets women back to begin with, and people like Pax Dickinson are just there to make sure they don't progress any farther.

Sexism is clearly wrong, and those who engage in it should be fired. It is also wrong to drive down wages by flooding the US market with low-wage foreign nationals, but those who do that are called innovators and get bonuses while those who need to compete for crumbs see our standards of living decimated and destroyed.
Why is anyone surprised that sexism is alive and well? A black boy gets shot by an hispanic man and everyone cries racism and the entire country is in an uproar so much so that the president feels the need to make a speech. A 14 year old girl gets raped and subsequently commits suicide because the male sexist pig judge thought since it wasn't a beat up kind of rape it wasn't that bad so only gave the offender 30 days in jail. Exactly what about that shouts equality?? Exactly what about 3 male youths who shoot an Aussie aren't fully developed until they are 24 years old so we can judge them less harshly but a 14 year old girl is fully in control over herself when faced with a teacher who wants to have sex with her, shouts equality to anyone???
You could never show a black man crawling on all fours with a chain around his neck but you can a woman. It's called pornography and it's nicely tucked away protected by the system made by men for men.
Men wont change until women change and get angry all over again.
I have come to believe that putting women down is a masculine ritual that (some) men routinely perform for the benefit of other men, that is, look at me, I am a macho jerk, therefore I am a real man, and not a pussy. This is like the feminine ritual of screaming and have a panic attack and pretending to be helpless when a small tiny insect appears: it's like saying, I'm a cute widdle helpless girlie-pie, and therefore, a real woman, not a butch... in reality, normal people don't need to act like jerks or be afraid of little bugs. It's all just phony, trying to project an image. Sad, isn't it?
Not hiring because of Race, Religion & Gender ... etc, is totally wrong. But you shouldn't hire to make a quota either. Hire the best for your company and let the market and the individual parties determine the salaries. If anyone doesn't like their salaries or situation and you believe you are that good .... its an open market ... see what you're worth.
If a company hires based on quotas, or doesn't hire the best because of Race, Religion & Gender ... etc, there will be consequences. I believe in the one case it does a disservice to the group and makes me question a groups ability within an organization (did they hire the best or because of classification?) and in the other case the business will lose to competition that does hire the best regardless of a classified group.
It's a tragically competitive world. Businesses survive because they have the right mix of people.
First: I will state I am male:
Second: 'Technology' is a VERY broad term Way too large for generalizations:
I've been in Information Technology, as a manager, for 20 plus years and I know first hand how the money is spent: Information Technology is an industry where salary parity does exist between men and women.
The statement in the article "This is an industry dominated by "brogrammers," one that for every man's dollar pays women 49 cents" is so far off base it's pathetic
Don't forget that women are the reason you men are able to carry your "legacy" through generations to come, and we're more than just caregivers. We have more to offer than just your babies (which is obviously not enough in itself) so it's time for you to wake up from the 1950s and realize that women also think for themselves, have brains, and are able to use them quite well in all different fields of study. Your minds are narrow.
Before we cry sexism, can we dig deeper into the data? I would like to present statistics of how many women are Computer Science majors compared to men, and the percentage of women compared to men that apply for IT jobs. I know this makes for a good story but as a journalist I would like to see the writer actually present data to back up the claim. If I gave you the statistics that only 9.4% of nurses are men, I can present the headline "Are Women Keeping Men Out of the Inner Circle of Nurses" and looking at the number comparison I could say YES, but if I looked at the amount of male graduates compared to women I could probably conclude that the numbers are just not there for an equal opportunity.
I know this maynot be a popular comment, but let me say this. I have been in the Technical
Field for 20 years. I have seen numerous Women Technicians, that are able to get away
with things, that my male counterparts could not. Their knowledge level was poor at best, but
once hired the upper management was scared to fire them, due to a lawsuit. It was not
fair to the other technicians, that were expected to fix issues in the Technical Field. If they
want to be employed in the Technical Field, then they should have to study just as hard
as the male counterparts, and perform just as good as them as well.

COVINGTON - The Newton County Sheriff's Office is looking for a break to help them solve a rash of automobile break-ins in the Butler Bridge Road and Falls subdivision areas.There were at least nine reported incidents that took place the middle of last week, according to NCSO incident reports obtained Tuesday. "We're beefing up patrols in that area during the evening watch and morning watch," said NCSO spokesman Lt. Mark Mitchell. "Also, we're hoping someone will call us and give us some information that will give us some kind of break in the case. We're hoping someone will see something or someone in the area will know something." Mitchell said stolen items where serial numbers were furnished were entered on the Georgia Crime Information Center network and investigators are hopeful they will be able to track anything that is pawned or sold back to those responsible. In several instances, after breaking into the vehicles, the thieves apparently didn't find anything they wanted, so nothing was taken. "Some of these were crimes of opportunity where someone just left their car unlocked. It's not their fault, but (the thieves) usually look for something where they won't have to make a lot of noise. But, there was forcible entry, too, and they did break out the windows on vehicles that were locked," Mitchell said. Several GPS navigation systems and cell phones were taken and at least two weapons - a black Glock 9 mm and a Desert Eagle .44-caliber Magnum automatic pistol - were stolen. Also, multiple credit cards, drivers licenses and other personal identification information was taken. According to incident reports, many of the crimes took place at a string of houses adjacent to each other on Falls Boulevard. Mitchell said it is unknown how the perpetrators went into the area, but in the past he's seen thieves park outside a subdivision and walk in. He said they often carry tools for breaking into the vehicles in a book bag or similar bag that is big enough to put whatever they steal into, as well. He urged anyone who may have seen any suspicious person on foot or in a vehicle during the early morning hours of June 25, to call the sheriff's office at 678-625-1401. Tips can also be given to the NCSO anonymously at 678-625-5007 or through their Web site at www.newtonsheriffga.org and clicking on "anonymous tip line." Those who want a response from NCSO personnel should leave contact information. Barbara Knowles can be reached at email@example.com.

-- Robert Preidt
MONDAY, Aug. 23 (HealthDay News) -- The initial treatment given
to prostate cancer patients has a major impact on short- and
long-term costs of care, a new study has found.
For example, while some may opt for an initial treatment that is
less expensive in the short-term, the long-term costs of that
treatment may actually be higher, the study authors explained.
Treatments options for early-stage prostate cancer include
surgery, radiation therapy, hormonal treatment, watchful waiting,
or combinations of those methods. Decisions about which treatment
to use are based on a variety of factors, including cost, according
to background information in the study, published online Aug. 23 in
the journal
In the study, U.S. researchers analyzed data from 13,769
prostate cancer patients, aged 66 and older, who were diagnosed in
2000 and followed-up for a period of five years. The data came from
the Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results (SEER)-Medicare
The men were divided into groups based on the treatment they
received during the first nine months after being diagnosed with
prostate cancer: watchful waiting, radiation, hormonal therapy,
hormonal therapy plus radiation, and surgery. The men in the
surgery group may also have received hormones and/or radiation
For most of these cases, treatment costs were highest in the
first year and then declined sharply and remained steady over the
next several years. According to the report, watchful waiting had
the lowest initial ($4,270) and five-year total costs ($9,130), and
hormonal therapy had the second lowest initial cost but the highest
five-year total cost ($26,896).
The highest initial treatment costs were observed among those
receiving hormonal therapy plus radiation ($17,474), and those
undergoing surgery ($15,197), the investigators noted.
Over five years, total costs for hormonal therapy plus radiation
were $25,097, and $19,214 for surgery.
When the researchers took into account that costs of treatment
in the last 12 months of life are different than other treatment
years and excluded the costs for that year, they found that total
costs were highest for hormonal therapy plus radiation ($23,488)
and hormonal therapy only ($23,199).
"This demonstrates that treatments that may be less expensive in the short term may have higher long-term costs," study leader Claire Snyder, of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore, said in a journal news release.

"...as slick and enjoyable as a brand-new tube of lip gloss."
From the New York Times bestselling author of Shoe Addicts Anonymous and Secrets of a Shoe Addict comes a tale of old friends, new loves, and the undeniable power of a little face cream.
Twenty years ago, Allie Denty was the pretty one and her best friend, Olivia Pelham, was the smart one. Throughout high school, they were inseparable . . . until a vicious rumor about Olivia---a rumor too close to the truth---ended their friendship.
Now, on the eve of their twentieth high school reunion, Allie finds herself suddenly single, a little chubby, and feeling old. Olivia, successful beauty editor in New York, realizes she's lonely, and that she's finally ready to face her demons.
Sometimes hope lives in the future; sometimes it comes from the past; and sometimes, when every stupid thing goes wrong, it comes from a prettily packaged jar filled with scented cream and promises.
Beth Harbison has done it again. A hilarious and touching novel about friendship, Love's Baby Soft perfume, Watermelon Lip Smackers, bad run-ins with Sun-In, and the healing power of "Gee Your Hair Smells Terrific." Hope in a jar: We all need it.
When I was twelve, a fortune-teller at the Herbert Hoover Junior High School carnival said to me: "Gemma Craig, you listen to me. Do not get married. Ever. If you do, you'll end up cooking for a man who'd rather eat at McDonald's; doing laundry for a man who sweats like a rabid pig, then criticizes you for not turning his T-shirts right side out; and cleaning the bathroom floor after a man whose aim is so bad, he can't hit a hole the size of a watermelon--"
This man sounded disgusting.
"--make your own money and be independent. Having kids is fine, but
Listen to this audiobook excerpt from Beth Harbison's novel Hope in a Jar. Twenty years ago, Allie Denty was the pretty one and her best friend Olivia Pelham was the smart one. Throughout high school, they were inseparable...until a vicious rumor about Olivia— a rumor too close to the truth—ended their friendship.

I'm not protecting anyone that made my life a living hell': Teen faces jail time after lashing out on Twitter and naming the boys who sexually assaulted her
17-year-old Savannah Dietrich named and shamed the boys on the social messaging site, writing: 'There you go, lock me up. I'm not protecting anyone that made my life a living Hell.' The Louisville, Kentucky teen told The Courier-Journal she was frustrated by what she feels is a lenient deal for her attackers.
The Mail Online does not normally report the names of sexual assault victims, but Dietrich and her parents say they do not want to shield her identity and want her case to be public. The boys' attorneys have asked a judge to hold Dietrich in contempt for violating the confidentiality of a juvenile hearing and the judge's order not to speak about it.
Dietrich told the paper she was assaulted in August 2011 by two boys she knew when she passed out after drinking at a gathering. She learned months later that pictures of the assault were taken and shared with others.
'For months, I cried myself to sleep. I couldn't go out in public places,' she told the newspaper, as her father and attorneys sat nearby. 'You just sit there and wonder, who saw (the pictures), who knows?'
Dietrich's attorneys want her contempt hearing open to the media, arguing she has a First Amendment right to speak about her case and to a public hearing. The boys' attorneys, however, have asked to keep the hearing closed. The contempt charge carries a possible sentence of 180 days in jail and a $500 fine. The boys pleaded guilty on June 26 to first-degree sexual abuse and misdemeanor voyeurism. Dietrich says she was unaware of a plea agreement until just before it was announced in court. She could not say what the proposed punishment was because of the court order, but said she feels like it was a slap on the wrist. The teens are to be sentenced next month, and the judge could reject or modify the terms of the proposed agreement. When Judge Dee McDonald admonished everyone at the hearing not to speak about what happened in court or about the crime, Dietrich said she cried.
'They got off very easy … and they tell me to be quiet, just silencing me at the end,' she said.
Afterwards Dietrich tweeted, 'They said I can't talk about it or I'll be locked up. ….Protect rapist is more important than getting justice for the victim in Louisville.'
David Marburger, an Ohio media law specialist, said Dietrich should have tried to get the courts to vacate the gag order rather than simply violating it. But Gregg Leslie, interim executive director of the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, said Dietrich should 'not be legally barred from talking about what happened to her. That's a wide-ranging restraint on speech.' Leslie said this sort of issue is becoming more common.
'In the past, people would complain to anyone who would listen, but they didn't have a way to publish their comments where there would be a permanent record, like on Facebook and Twitter, for people to see worldwide,' he said.
Dietrich said she just needed to stand up for herself. 'I'm at the point that if I have to go to jail for my rights, I will do it.'
you go girl! i hope she shows these dudes who's the boss. this is such crap.

Pension fund dumps Wal-Mart over labor issues
A $183 billion group is halting its investments, saying the retailer wouldn't discuss its concerns about workers.
Wal-Mart's (WMT) labor policies have earned it both haters and fans. Critics decry the retail giant's low wages and resistance to worker unions, while supporters praise it for employing so many people who might otherwise be jobless.
Now a $183 billion pension fund is joining the haters. Dutch pension fund PGGM says Wal-Mart is on its exclusion list because the retailer "was not prepared to take PGGM's concerns about the company's tense labor relations in its domestic market into consideration."
It added that a second motivation for the decision was that Wal-Mart's board "was not willing to participate in fruitful dialogues with its shareholders." Those positions are leading PGGM to sell the roughly $260 million in Wal-Mart shares it had held for clients, Bloomberg adds.
Chief among its complaints is Wal-Mart's resistance to unions, which the fund said is "contrary to fundamental principles and rights at work." It also said it didn't get a response to inquiries about Wal-Mart's bribery allegations in Mexico.
Many consumers love Wal-Mart for its low prices, but some critics point out that those bargains have a steep cost. Workers are often pushed to accept public aid, including food stamps, because they don't earn enough on their meager wages, according to a June report from congressional Democrats.
A single Wal-Mart Supercenter store in Wisconsin may require taxpayers to pay as much as $1.7 million per year in aid, the report said.
As Bloomberg Businesweek noted, Wal-Mart has a long history of resisting unionization, stemming as far back as 1970, when an attorney hired by founder Sam Walton called the unions blood-sucking parasites.

I would say WalMart is a blood sucking parasite on every community that has one. It ruins jobs, small business, and lowers the incomes of everyone in the community. They sell crap for ridiculous prices and people eat it up. They have most of Congress on a leash, to make sure they can keep on with their practice of paying people as little as possible. While Walton's and their executive staff are making a ton of money. They would not have to raise prices to grant their workers a better wage, they would just have to learn to live on a few billion less a year.
what is with all the anti-union rants today? The answer is simple, people ask for unionization when working conditions are unsafe, when people are not paid a living wage, or when there are other SERIOUS issues, not just for kicks. Meet your employees needs and unions are not needed, that's the reason not all jobs in the us NEED unions. Ask anyone that belongs to one, they are a pain, but in some cases they are still the best option. I live in a small town and 10 years ago it was the WORKERS at walmart that were saying please, we really don't want a union. Now things have changed, insurance became crap, wages have actually DROPPED, and I don't just mean adjusted for inflation, I mean starting wage has dropped, raises are at smaller percentages, now it's the employees that want a union, because conditions have detereated that much. The store manager quit because he wouldn't be apart of things. No, unions aren't' the problem, just a symptom. Greed and disregard are the issues.
This thinking, pretty standard in Europe -which has raised its avg. income from 62% to 81% of the USA since Reagan sent us on the more-for-the-top-1% road. It used to be standard thinking in the USA until the "Boss Hogg" southern-attitude that the plutocracy knows best has infected much of the country.

"Concrete Solution" is episode number 3.2 of the Happy Tree Friends television series.
HTF Episode Description
It's all work and no play for the Happy Tree Friends! You'll need your hard hat for the conclusion of this one!
Nutty mixes up a sack of sugar with a bag of concrete at a construction site. (DVD)
Handy drives his truck to the Happy Tree Cafe and manages to make it inside after some difficulty getting out of his truck. Giggles, the rollerblading waitress, delivers orders to the customers, which includes bacon and eggs to Handy and pancakes with syrup to Nutty. While Nutty drenches his pancakes in syrup, Giggles pours some coffee for Handy. He indicates that he'd like some sugar, but because the container is empty, Giggles has to get some more from the pantry. As Nutty happily chows down on his breakfast, he is awestruck upon seeing dozens of bags of sugar in the pantry. As to be expected, Nutty runs out of the cafe clutching a bag of sugar in his hands.
Elsewhere, at a construction site on an unfinished bridge, Handy, Lumpy, and The Mole get ready for work. Lumpy and The Mole punch their time cards, but Handy has difficulty doing this. While Handy and Lumpy begin mixing cement, The Mole guides a truck, carrying numerous metal support wires, backwards. In the back of the truck, a particularly sharp wire moves ever closer to The Mole's unseeing eye.
Meanwhile, Lumpy tries to nail two boards together with a nailgun, but nothing comes out. He looks directly into the barrel of the nail gun and squeezes the trigger but still, nothing comes out. He finally realizes that it isn't plugged in. Upon plugging it in, a nail shoots out and hits Handy in the back of the head. Handy falls face down in the wet cement, and when Lumpy's efforts to pull him out fail, he pushes Handy further into the cement. He then smoothes the cement and leaves his hand prints before running off.
At this time, Nutty comes running up, carrying his bag of sugar. He slips on the wet cement and falls face down on the ground, while the bag of sugar flies into a pile of bags of cement. When he gets up, Nutty grabs a bag of cement and hurries on his way. Lumpy returns now and unknowingly pours the bag of sugar into a cement mixer.
Back at Nutty's house, he puts a piece of cereal in a bowl and pours the bag of cement over it, still thinking he possesses sugar. After quickly eating the cement, his mouth becomes dry and twisted. He sees a glass of water and begins chugging it. Later, an ambulance sits outside his house, wherein Sniffles, the doctor, examines Nutty who lies on a gurney. Sniffles begins tapping a bulge in Nutty's stomach with a reflex hammer and lets out a triumphant, "Aha!"
Back at the newly constructed bridge, a line of cars waits for Lumpy to remove a barricade blocking the bridge. At the end of the line, just behind the truck with the metal support wires which have impaled The Mole's body in numerous places, Sniffles' ambulance pulls up. Lumpy removes the barricade and opens the road. Everyone on the bridge cheers, but it begins to rain. The sugar in the bridge begins melting as the water hits it, causing cars to lose their traction and swerve or stop.
The ambulance sways up and down as it moves forwards, causing Nutty's unstrapped gurney to roll back and forth. As Sniffles turns around to attempt to strap Nutty's gurney down, he slams into a car. Sniffles' head slams into the steering wheel where he is crushed, while Nutty flies out of the ambulance through the windshield. He hits Lumpy and knocks him off the bridge, while Nutty grabs onto the railing for dear life. At that moment, the rain stops.
The concrete in Nutty's stomach begins weighing his body down, causing his lower half to fall off. His stomach is exposed and the concrete continues to pull down him down. Lumpy lands on the road below and as he tries to get up, he is run over by Lifty and Shifty's van. Panicking, they get out and try to help Lumpy, but upon finding his wallet they take his money and drive off.
While Nutty struggles to keep himself from falling, his tongue touches the rail of the bridge. Tasting the sugar, he enthusiastically begins to lick the railing. Back on the ground, Lumpy tries once again to stand up. This time a section of concrete falls on him, crushing his back. When the concrete falls forward to crush the rest of Lumpy's body, we see that the piece of the bridge that fell was the piece that Lumpy shoved Handy into earlier.
We cut back to Nutty who is still eating the bridge, now holding onto either side of the split bridge. Nutty eats the last section of the bridge keeping the two halves together, causing them to fall away from each other and tear Nutty in half, giving what he deserves. Nutty's stomach falls into Pop's car which is driving on the road beneath, crushing Cub. At the supermarket Pop puts a bag of sugar in the shopping cart where Nutty's stomach sits, wearing Cub's cap.
"Take the bitter with the sweet!"
- Mole is impaled by sharp rebar. (Death was shown afterwards)
- Handy is shot in the back of the head with a nailgun and then suffocates when he falls face first into wet cement.
- Sniffles' head is crushed when it slams into the steering wheel of his ambulance.
- Lumpy is crushed by a block of cement .
- Nutty is torn in half when he causes two halves of the bridge to break apart.
- Toothy, Flaky, Russell, (debatably) Cro-Marmot and several Generic Tree Friends die when their vehicles fall off the bridge. (Death not shown).
- Cuddles was driving the red car that Sniffles crashed into. He possibly died after being hit or may have died when the bridge cuts in half. (debatable and death not shown)
- Mime also dies when he falls off the bridge (debatable as he could have easily gone through the bridge as he was riding a unicycle).
- Cub is crushed by Nutty's cement-filled stomach.
- As usual, the candy on Nutty's body changes places numerous times, sometimes during continuous shots.
- Throughout most of the episode, Nutty's left eye is his lazy eye. This changes to his right eye, however, when he is in the ambulance, sliding around on the gurney. His eyes return to normal when he flies out of the ambulance.
- As usual, the directions of Lumpy's antlers change numerous times throughout the episode.
- When Handy and Nutty enter the cafe at the start of the episode, the door opens inwards. When Nutty runs off with the bag of sugar, however, the door opens outwards.
- It's unknown why Handy's hard hat doesn't prevent him from getting dizzy when he fall out of his car window. And since Handy became upside-down the hat didn't come out.
- In the cafe, Nutty doesn't have a fork when Giggles delivers his order, but he is later seen eating with one.
- Russell's car turns from red to blue.
- When we see the Mole impaled on the pipes, his sunglasses are behind his head.
- When Lumpy notices he's shot Handy, Handy's tail is over the square of cement. When Lumpy runs over to Handy, however, Handy's tail is fully on the cement.
- It's odd that Nutty went to construction site as they were fixing one part of the bridge and the construction was happening at the center. And since he isn't a construction worker, he shouldn't have been allowed to enter the construction site. (it was likely because Lumpy was the only one alive, so he probably would have let Nutty in or didn't notice).
- The positions of the cars on and beneath the bridge change numerous times.
- The steering wheel to Sniffles' ambulance becomes bigger after he hits a car.
- When Lumpy is knocked off the bridge, he falls as though he is about to land on the grass, but falls on the road instead.
- When Lifty and Shifty try to help Lumpy, Shifty's tummy marking doesn't appear at first.
- When Lumpy is run over by the van, his leg is out of place with a bone sticking out. Later, it's only a flesh wound and he is almost able to stand.
- Lumpy and the cement block with Handy in it disappears shortly after Lumpy dies.
- The cement was very flat at first, but changed to a thicker shape.
- The entire bridge melted as if it was made entirely out of sugar, even though Lumpy only used one bag (and even then quite a bit was inexplicably left on the ground). However the bridge may have melted because Lumpy didn't wait long enough to the cement to dry, but yet, the whole bridge was melting and Lumpy only began to use the sugar to fix a part in the middle.
- When Lumpy looks into the nailgun, we see his eyes are blue, however, in Wishy Washy, when he dies, we see his eyes are green.
- When Pop is driving to the store at the end of the episode, there are cars all around him, and even if they did fall off the bridge, they would not be THAT far away from it.
- When the drivers are cheering when the bridge opens, Flaky and her vehicle are nowhere to be seen.
- When Nutty is at the Cafe, he pours on globs of syrup but the syrup in the container stays the same the entire time he pours it.
- When Nutty sees the cabinet of sugar, his face is dirty with a bunch of syrup. Although, when he runs out with a bag of it, his face is clean.
- Lumpy would have most likely co-starred. Also, Lifty, Shifty, and Sniffles would have probably made featuring roles instead of appearance.
- When the scene changes to Lumpy after Nutty begins to lick the railing of the road, before Lumpy is crushed by the cement block, both of his antlers are pointing up.
- When the concrete falls on Lumpy and blood is coming out of his nostrils, blood is also seen around his nostrils. But when all the blood comes out, the blood his nostrils was not seen.
- When The Mole gets impaled he is way higher than he was supposed to.
- When Lumpy put the raw cement sack in the mixer, he poured already liquid without mixing water or even turning it on.
- Lumpy had a problem with pulling Handy's corpse from the cement, but he did not have any problem pushing it.
- When Nutty trips in the cement, considering how Lumpy buried Handy, the corpse should have been visible.
- The bridge was apparently built already when the cars began to gather.
- Inside of Sniffles' ambulance, there was nothing in the walls to keep Nutty's litter still when it first appeared, but they did appear when Sniffles realized he forgot to fasten the litter.
- There was nothing supporting the sign when Lumpy removed it.
- According to the law, when an ambulance arrives, the cars must make way for it to pass, but nobody made way for Sniffles.
- If the bridge was being build, why did everyone gather on the top of it thinking it was already done? It's likely that they weren't warned.
- Nutty's lower body disappears after it is ripped off.
- There was a lot of cars when the ambulance gets hit, but only the car it hit is shown when Nutty flies towards Lumpy.
- When the ambulance is shaking Nutty's litter around, his feet are faced to the front, when he is flung out due to the inertia, his head is facing the front.
- Nutty should have been thrown and fall from the height he was thrown, but he is a higher height when he flies towards Lumpy.
- The side bars of the bridge were made of cement.
- The block of cement Lumpy buried Handy appears in the end completely intact, with Handy body still visible, but the block should have merged within the bridge and Handy was supposed to be fully inside of the block.
- Nutty is holding the bar of the bridge when he starts eating it, but then he is holding the road when he is finishing.
- There was a thick part of the cement that was holding the bridge, when the camera pans in, the part is thinner.
- When Nutty was finishing the bridge, there was a car not far from him, when the camera pans in, the car is near his hand.
- Nutty's stomach shouldn't have taken that long to fall.
- If Toothy's truck was already that way and Pop was driving in straight line, how did he managed to avoid it?
- Near Toothy's fallen truck, there was a car with doors open showing nothing inside.
- When the bridge started to melt, a car got stuck, implying that it was to sticky and unable to ride, but Sniffles' ambulance and several other cars are showing in movement after this.
- The door at the cafe was necessary to push it, but Handy became frustrated before Nutty opened it, even though he can push a door with his head or legs, it was likely because he thought that it was necessary to pull the door instead.
- Nutty was shown to have increased the size of his belly when he first entered Sniffles' ambulance, but later in the episode, his belly returns to the normal size, and since it was hard cement, it shouldn't be able to be damaged, but it's likely it crushed Nutty's internal organs, making space.
- Toothy was seen in a truck, but before the bridge collapsed, he was in a car.
- It is unknown how Lumpy finished the bridge without Handy and The Mole. (Unless the other workers were Generic Tree Friends who were off-screen at the time)
- Even the the red car which looks like the one Disco Bear has in Blind Date is shown to be able to go through the bridge in the first scene, it later reappears next to the car belonging to Cuddles (right before Sniffles crashes in it) even though it was shown leaving it behind in the first scene.
- Before Nutty ate the last piece of the highway, there was a red car on his left. But when the two halves broke apart, the car fell off, and when we see the wide view of the damage, the red car is nowhere to be seen.
- When Nutty was eating the bridge, Cuddles' car was next to him, but Cuddles' car was further away from where Nutty is. It could be possible it's someone else's car of it could have slid over next to him.
- When Lumpy slammed onto the ground, he cracked the cement. Lumpy shouldn't be that heavy to crack the cement.
- As seen in the close-up when Lumpy looks inside the nail gun, Lumpy has blue eyes.
- When this episode aired along with Doggone It and Sea What I Found on YouTube, the alternate title for the conglomeration of the segments was named "The Third Degree". Lifty and Shifty, Pop and Cub, Cuddles, and Lumpy appear in all three episodes. Additionally, Lumpy and (debatably) Cub dies in all three episodes.
- Russell's car is similar to Lumpy's brown car and Cuddles' car is similar to Flaky's car in Easy Comb, Easy Go.
- Sniffles didn't seem to notice that The Mole's body was impaled on the pipes in front of him.
- Handy's image in the cement may be a reference to Han Solo being encased in carbonite at the end of Star Wars: The Empire Stikes Back and the beginning of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.
- This is one of the few episodes where The Mole doesn't kill or harm anybody despite being killed himself.
- The Mole's death is similar to Shifty's death from Swelter Skelter.
- The red car that manages to pass the bridge when the cars belonging to Cuddles and Russel slide looks exactly like the car Disco Bear had in Blind Date.
- Lumpy's injury and death is similar to Sniffles' in A Sight for Sore Eyes.
- At the beginning, when Cuddles's menu is shown, it has a picture resembling the Java logo.
- After he leaves the Café, Nutty makes a similar noise he did in Milk Pong.
- The moral is same as A Sucker for Love (part 1).
- Splendid, Flippy, Disco Bear and Petunia were the only characters that didn't appear in this episode. Petunia could made an appearance role as a cook in the cafe in this episode and Disco Bear in the cafe with Flaky instead of Cuddles and Toothy.
- This is one of only seven episodes Lifty and Shifty survive in. The other six are Cheesy Does It, Ipso Fatso, Easy Comb, Easy Go, Happy New Year , the Youtube Live Episode and Claw. Also, this is one of the few episodes (if not the only) where Lifty and Shifty steal something(Lumpy's wallet) and survive.
- Handy, The Mole, and Lumpy die in the same order in Don't Yank My Chain, A Hole Lotta Love, and Pet Peeve.
- Cuddles, Toothy, Russell, Cro-Marmot, Flaky and Mime made the most minor appearance roles than Giggles, The Mole, Lifty, Shifty, Pop and Cub.
- This episode has by far the most known goofs in the whole series.
- Nutty is responsible for the deaths of the people who died in the traffic accident.
- Lumpy is also responsible for the deaths of the people who died in the traffic accident, but in a more direct way.
- This is the only episode where Nutty ate/drank something that wasn't sweet and didn't get grossed out. He did this because he wasn't able to move his mouth after eating the cement powder.

The saga of ruin and futility is painful enough for Americans to remember. The finale is even more humiliating, and that explains the sometimes tiptoe approach documentary maker Rory Kennedy (RFK's daughter) takes in Last Days in Vietnam. The primarily American interviewees here include the ever-exculpatory Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State during the end of the war in 1975, former CIA agent Frank Snepp (the sharpest character among these analysts) and Juan Valdez and Mike Sullivan, two of the last 11 Marines airlifted off the roof of the American embassy in Saigon. » Read More

Here, once upon a time, "the Trubshaw Baby" was kidnapped and taken by the trolls who live under the streets. Lord Portley-Rind (voiced by Jared Harris), a proud non-entity with a chest full of medals, has accepted the offer of a freelance exterminator to rid the city of these unseen monsters. » Read More

Two stray dogs recently brought to the Animal Welfare Society of Monroe's Stroud Township shelter were in such poor shape that one had to be euthanized and the other died just moments after being dropped off.
"The dogs were brought to us on Fridays a week apart," said AWSOM Vice President Jeannie Lee.
Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg boroughs plan to remove the trash from the former homeless camp under the Veterans Memorial Bridge in April, Stroud Area Regional Police Capt. Brian Kimmins said.
"We're going to do the Stroudsburg side on April 5 and the East Stroudsburg side on April 12," Kimmins said.
Nine Monroe County Municipal Waste Authority workers will help with the cleanup, using trash bins, front-end loaders and other equipment from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation and boroughs, Kimmins said.
Meanwhile, community volunteer task forces have been set up to help the homeless by addressing various needs like emergency shelter, affordable housing, employment and medical/dental/pet care.
Anyone interested in serving on one or more of these task forces can contact East Stroudsburg United Methodist Church at 570-421-3280.
Andrew Scott
The first was a chihuahua, about 13 to 14 years old, which had been found near the Stroudsburg McDonald's, Lee said. Seeing its grave condition, a veterinarian said it was more humane to euthanize the dog rather than let it live much longer in pain.
The second appeared to be a Yorkshire terrier with hair so matted with filth that its eyes weren't visible. The dog was coughing up blood and died shortly after being brought to the shelter.
"What concerned us was that we found absolutely no one at all looking for these dogs," Lee said. "It made us wonder if the dogs' owners had been homeless and decided to just let the dogs go because they could no longer care for them. We're aware that homeless shelters in our area don't allow or aren't equipped to handle pets, and that homeless people have no access to veterinary care, food or grooming for their pets."
With this in mind, AWSOM has planned a free pet health care clinic for the homeless from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 6, at the Salvation Army Citadel on Washington Street in East Stroudsburg.
Dr. Pat McCabe of Canadensis Veterinary Clinic and Dr. Eric Wayne of Pocono Veterinary Services will donate their time to provide updated vaccinations, flea/tick treatments and other services.
Pets will also receive grooming needs and care packages including pet food, collapsible bowls, collars, leashes and other items.
"AWSOM's going to be signing up pet owners so we can get them pet food on a monthly basis," Lee said. "We'll find out where the owners are staying so we can deliver the food to them if they can't find a way to get to us."
Faith Kimes, wife of the Rev. Edward Kimes at East Stroudsburg United Methodist Church, works with the homeless and was recently notified about this upcoming free pet health care clinic.
"I think it's incredible what they're doing," Kimes said. "I've told the homeless people I'm in contact with about it, and they're very excited. It's really touched a nerve because pet care is a huge concern with the homeless. So far, I've counted about 35 to 40 pets who could benefit from this clinic.
"This is really a great thing because homeless people love their pets just as much as many people with homes love their pets, and they deserve access to the same care for their pets that others have," she said.
AWSOM is accepting donated new or used dog collars of all sizes, leashes and clean pet-sized blankets for the care packages to be handed out at the clinic. These can be dropped off at the Godfrey Ridge Road shelter in Stroud Township or by calling 570-421-3647.
Monetary donations for buying vaccinations and other supplies can be sent to AWSOM's Yelp For Help Fund. Lee can be contacted at 570-730-3255 or email@example.com for information.

Jan 27 2013: Hey Edward..important pint and true globally..through this time of global crisis when more and more people are worse off as the folk who brought us to collapse prosper the Dow will hit a record high tomorrow)..
What that means is that the GDP of all nations is no longer connected up to creating jobs, building infrastructure, preserving the planet, creating housing opportunity, growing high quality food. We falsely feel secure when the dow hits new highs, housing starts rise, unemployment rates creep down a bit..
We are not paying attention to the thrieavbility of our economy.
We need new goals
New conversations about our economy that are more focused on equal opportunity and the distribution of wealth
New performance measures..a high dow does not translate to public good..to common good.
Jan 27 2013: Finally, a Plutonomist chimes in! 14,000 for the Dow tomorrow huh? Thanks for two more eye-opening economics formulas: 1). The GDP is not directly proportional to Job Creation, 2). A high DJIA does not equal Greater Public Good. I have always thought a robust stock market meant Happy Days for the hoi polloi. If that is not true you are right about needing new goals. Clearly you agree there is no intersection between Wall Street and Main Street. So your advice is forget the Dow and focus on equal opportunity in the distribution of wealth? Sounds logical. Thanks!

Thank you for your service, veterans
Many people go out of their way to express their gratitude to me for my military service. Their appreciation is very heart-warming and well received. Unless you are a veteran, you can't feel the satisfaction of having served to preserve the freedoms we enjoy.
Our veterans have done their job. Now, it is up to our government to do its job. Many thousands of veterans suffer from a variety of ailments. Homelessness is still a big problem. Employment is hard to find. Veterans deserve all the help possible to return to a normal life as a citizen.
Our nation owes all veterans a debt forever, a debt that can never be re-paid. Keep saying "Thank-you for your service." It means all the world to them. God bless all veterans. God bless America.

Incorrect formatting if using white-space:now
Under Review
rap; attribute in css element at beginning of

by SDerrick
Status: Under Review
We have used the white-space:nowrap; attribute for a couple years in epub and mobi formats. Basically we are wrapping a single word that we don;'t want the reader to wrap becasue they break it incorrectly.
An example
html:
This is a stupid eaxample of why we would use the white-space:nowrap; attribute in the text within a paragraph tag.
 css: span.nowrap { white-space:nowrap; }
In all the epub readers but the Nook, and in the Nook prior to the latest software update in Oct/Nov time frame this displays fine. Now in the current Nook the entire
 acts like it has the nowrap attribute and most of the text falls of the right side. The
 turns into a one line element!
The oddity is that this only happens if the tag with the nowrap attribute accurs first in the parent
 or

this will not have the bug, notice the character 'T' before the  tag.

This is a stupid eaxample of why we would use the white-space:nowrap; attribute in the text within a paragraph tag.

The City could green light a housing development on the west side. More than 100 homes would be built, but the implications are much bigger.
City officials hope that more neighborhoods start popping up, and they are on their way to getting that wish.
The area is near the Silverbell Golf Course, on the west side of Tucson, just north of Silverbell and Grant. There are plans for 143 homes to be built on the site.
Across the country, the housing market is improving. Builders are the most confident they have been in six and a half years. Housing has a big impact on the economy in general. More housing indicates more jobs and more spending.
Today, the City of Tucson looks to approve the area on Silverbell to be developed and one official calls it evidence of local progress.
"That's a sign of health in the local home building economy that has not been very healthy for the past few years," said Albert Elias, Assistant City Manager.
There is no word yet on if the owner, Estes Homes plans to develop the land on its own or if it plans to sell the land.

I often wonder about my future. It's kind of like when you take your seat on an airplane: It's the window seat. You love the window seat. But during the flight, when you attempt to look through the fogged glass beside you, you discover that it is unyielding—only allowing glimpses of scenery here and there. It's frustrating. The future is always like that. You can only catch glimpses, colors, general layouts.
But that isn't true at all.
You stop existing when people no longer remember you.
She's a fair share of confusion
Boxed up allusions
Smiles and eyes and perfume
Her laugh makes you dizzy
But you're just to busy to care
Such a horrible place
Drive until the sea laps the street
Think of the way you'd like to meet her
You'd say "how you do?"
Oh what a gentlemen, you think
Small talk runs so much deeper
Discreet as the paper and cans lining the highway
With even the slightest wind
They'll fly away
Such an artful grace
Oh how you'll join in the wistful race of running minds aplenty
Where strangers long for familiarity
A ripple that has crossed your mind
Shame that note you have signed
Is a glass painting robbed of color
Your heart turns your eyes
your eyes turn your mind
Your mind turns your face away
So across at the door
It seems like no more than a portal
Into the oblivion of paralytic indecision
Seriously. Nothing can make me melancholy like Explosions.
And sometimes, I just want to be sad. I don't know. That's really weird but it's true. I've been feeling kind of down all day. I do my best writing and reflection when I am depressed anyway.
That's probably unhealthy.
But I think we all feel this way sometimes.

Louisville, Ky. (WDRB News) -- If you didn't get enough of the Derby festivities, Fourth Street Live added a mix of Hispanic culture to all of the fun Sunday. It was Cinco de Mayo at Fourth Street Live.
The event is the first of its kind in Kentucky. Cinco de Mayo is a celebration of the surprising victory of a small group of Mexicans and American volunteers against a large French army in the Battle of Puebla.
This is the 110th celebration of Cinco de Mayo. The local event was started to raise awareness about international cultures.
"The idea is to bring Hispanic culture to Louisville. This is an opportunity for citizens to come and learn," said Helmer Duverge, consultant.
The event featured Flamenco performances, Mexican dancers, salsa rhythms and Latino bands.

From WENN.com
The Oscar winner stayed in character in between takes and her multiple personality disorder actions were so convincing one concerned onlooker reported Field to the police over concerns she was deranged.
The 66 year old, who was just method acting, was taken into custody for an evaluation and Field admits she was mortified.
She tells U.S. TV host Jimmy Fallon, ""I don't leave character. I am a method actor, but I hide it because people will think you're weird if you're in a corner sort of mumbling to yourself.
""I did this thing... called Sybil and we shot a lot of it on the streets of New York... And we were sort of between shots... and someone called to have this very strange and obviously very disturbed woman arrested - and it was me.
""I was walking around the streets and someone reported me to the police... (Someone) had to come get me (and bail me out).""

A little about me...
I like to think of myself as someone that sees the glass half full. I love my job dealing with the public, but would now like to work less and play more. I am a good listener,open minded.affectionate and still can say that I am a hopeless romantic. I also try to find time for family and friends by dining out, seeing a good movie and just shooting the breeze. .
About the one I'm looking for...
I would love to get to know someone that is open to new experiences and adventures. Someone that is loving, genuine, a great communicator and is still a kid at heart..
I'd just like to add...
My philosophy in life is never say never.
