Meet little Miss Maple -- the 12-year-old girl who humiliated Georgia police by solving a burglary case before they did {Asylum.co.uk}
Aug 25th 2011 10:54AM Seem nobody got your reference to "Miss Marple" Agatha Christie's crime solving granny.
Guess they're not PBS watchers... :-)
McDonald's to Bump Prices, Yet Ads Wax Fifties Nostalgic {Slashfood}
Apr 23rd 2011 12:54PM Well, they've already got nowhere left to go on lowering the quality of the burgers so now they have to raise the price.
BREAKING NEWS: Possible new TSA rules in effect after terror attempt {Gadling}
Dec 27th 2009 8:06PM Might as well forget about flying and take a train.
The only way we can fly safely is nearly naked and drunk off of our asses or drugged into oblivion.
Civil aviation is a dead issue. Fuggedaboudid... It was nice while we had it but now we don't. Deal with it.
Lets force Amtrack to upgrade their service, tracks and roling stock. We can even do that in the best way that can't be ignored, with our money.
In China they've got a train that gets 250+ miles per hour.
We could/should/would refit the Acela Boston to DC corridor with those trains and move the Acela trains out to regions with less traffic.
That would be fast enough for most people and they'd get to tide in some comfort instead of waiting for hours to sit in uncomfortable, over-priced seats in a tubular tin can which may or may not be late, which may or may not be safe which may or may not have room to take us anyway.
Screw the 'burbs anyway.
Lets move back and make our cities livable again.
TV 101: Why Leo Laporte represents the future of TV (kinda) - VIDEO {AOL TV}
Jan 8th 2009 11:34AM I like Leo and have done so since finding out about him on Adam Curry's DSC years ago.
In February 2006, I too saw what can be done with podcasts and/or "broadcast tower'-less broadcasts, aka web-casts.
For a niche markets (Leo's is Techies, mine is MSers, [people like me, with multiple sclerosis,]) the internet is the PERFECT medium.
I am now up to show 350 and, though I have yet to earn a buck, I AM earning a communications' bachelor's degree by doing web 2.0 stuff (podcasts, a wiki, a classical music webcast show for WSPC, St Peter's College web "radio".)
I love what I'm doing and I am convinced that my message, combined with the mix of indie music and of classical music IS finding an audience (and I have the URLs of the people who have downloaded my episodes 106.000 as of this writing, to prove it.)
