I haven't seen anything about Mexico. But, saw the news today that some pigs in Minnesota are believed to have contracted H1N1 from some kids:
quote:
Pigs in Minnesota may have tested positive for the H1N1 virus in a preliminary test, the first potential U.S. cases in swine, Agriculture Department officials said Friday.
The officials cautioned that further tests were needed to confirm that the pigs had been infected with H1N1, also known as swine flu virus. The pigs did not exhibit signs of sickness and may have been infected by a group of children with the virus, they said.

| Lunacy in Las Vegas Housing Interesting article about the real estate market in Vegas.
quote:
Just when you think you've heard it all in today's housing market, along comes a story that takes all those statistics and all those monthly foreclosure reports and all that testimony to Congress and just drop kicks them all out the window.
I'm going to tell you about a nice young woman named Katie. Last week Katie tried to buy a house in Las Vegas, and got a lesson in real estate reality that she will never forget.
[Unbelievable story]

| Dvorak, The EULA and SideKick Meltdown said by John Dvorak :
EULA licensees you must agree to are fluid. Almost all of them say that you are agreeing to allow the company to do whatever it wants to do, and you can't do anything about any changes, nor do you have any recourse.
The EULA is the problem; it lets companies be lax about their products and services. And why not? We say it works. We advertise that it works. We charge you money. You sign a document (essentially) saying that it doesn't really have to work as advertised, and guess what? It doesn't work as advertised. Too bad. (I still like to highlight the ridiculous EULA that I use on my own blog. As crazy as it is, it's still a legal document by today's standards.)
The Microsoft Sidekick fiasco may result in some interesting lawsuits that could get these idiotic and onerous EULAs changed forever. I can assure you that if Microsoft knew it would be liable for everything from time lost to God-knows-what, this catastrophe would not have happened.
Of course, the courts, the government, and everyone who is supposed to look out for the consumer is complicit in all this by defending the EULA and other dubious documents that have been developed to hold the giant corporation blameless no matter what happens. And, yeah sure, there is the class action suit filed now and again by lawyers to scam some money. I've signed on to a few of these and get a check in the mail for $15 a few years later. Fantastic.
The EULA has got to go. From time to time, John Dvorak brings brilliant points of view to the table. I felt this was worth a read.

| The art of hayride. I work at a seasonal job at a hayride every october, a job that simply requires you to show up, listen, and have people skills. Sounds great, however, this year we're being socked by back to back storms this weekend, normally the 2nd busiest for us. That's all well and god and things happen you might think, however, i have bills to pay. 2 are due monday, and if this weekend is a washout, i won't have enough to cover them both since this is my only employment and has really been for 9 years.
Please, no more rain, just tonight and tomorrow, the rest can be average turnout, no need for some blockbuster season, but i really need these 2!

| Re: Social Networking, the Media of Now and the Future And how many of those numbers include spam accounts and sockpuppetry?
Fake blogs, comp'd reviews from bloggers ( »mhpbooks.com/mobylives/?p=9340 ), social networking spam, PsyOps on Digg, botnets, etc. Alot of new exploitation methods have come out.
There is also the aspect of a voluntary surveillance society. What you put online lasts forever, like a tattoo or plastic surgery, unless you want to do a C&D or DMCA, but then you'll wind up on Digg

2 edits | said by Elcabong :(youtube clip) If more people are reached by the internet, that raises some interesting issues, such as in the area of campaign rules. For example, how do you enforce a rule concerning "this ad paid for by..." when banner ads aren't paid for until someone clicks them?
I just saw an AP article giving that example, and others. It's thought-provoking.
Related to the topic of campaign rules, I think they're a clumsy attempt to deal with corporations being treated as "people" and allowed to contribute to campaigns just like any other "person."
I think we should abolish most campaign rules (except a requirement that candidates disclose their major backers). And pass legislation to undo the legal concept that corporations have the same rights as individuals (which developed after the 14th Amendment).
That's really a perversion of justice. A corporation is a legal (yet fictional) "person" created by social fiat (state legislators who passed laws saying that, for $500 and filing proper paperwork, the state will create a "person" for you.). It seems like it shouldn't be that difficult for society to place limits on these "people," considering they are the product of society.
I believe if we fixed that problem, the necessity for 90% of campaign rules would disappear. Greater freedom in the election process. And, more influence by normal, naturally-born "people."
