Cellphones are dangerous/not dangerous: the WHO changes its mind → engadget.com

To say that experts generally don’t agree about whether cellphone radiation can fry your brain is an understatement of massive proportions, but amazingly enough, the World Health Organization has come to a pseudo-conclusion. A group of 31 scientists from 14 countries working in the org’s International Agency for Research on Cancer says that — based on a survey of the literature — those electromagnetic fields are as likely to be potentially carcinogenic as 266 other worrisome substances, including DDT pesticide and the exhaust from your automobile. Mind you, the WHO isn’t saying that cellphones cause cancer, as today’s decision is merely the latest call for more research, but the fact that respected scientists even claim that a correlation should be considered will probably be enough to stir the pot.

“Usually when a black woman is attacked we find some way of making it her fault. We ask questions like what was she wearing? What does she do for a living? How many sexual partners has she had in the past? You know, the typical stuff that removes accountability from her attacker. But in this case, where a black woman minding her damn business awoke to an attacker in her second story apartment, normal victim-blaming would not work. So now what do we do, because we obviously can’t take a black woman’s story of violence seriously? Well, that’s simple. We marginalize the attack and focus the story on her brother, whose anger we can exploit because it fits into stereotypes of queer masculinity that provide comic relief. The producers used the footage to lock Antoine in a frame, to capture him in place, in order to tell a story that fits their truths—black women’s confrontations with sexual violence are either not real or unimportant. Framed under the guise of “news” this masquerades as a story about a woman awaking to an intruder in her bed but is really a story about a funny black man, hilarious in his anger. It was never about her… When you are made invisible through processes of erasure, people don’t even acknowledge that you’re gone.” —

I hate when something is so great that I have to choose between feeling guilty about chopping it or feeling guilty about c&p’ing the entire thing. Hit the link, it’s that good.

After watching a kid skateboard outside the plaza that afternoon, I decided right then and there to get back into skateboarding. I use to be really serious at it; I’m talking I could pull off some complex tricks.

Charities That Support Our Troops → savvysugar.com

If you’d like to honor the men and women who have served our country or are in the process of doing so, one way of giving back is to donate to a charity that supports our troops. Many military charities exist, but these five have been rated as some of the most efficient organizations. Can’t afford to donate? Visit your local veteran’s hospital for volunteer opportunities.

“I’m sometimes disappointed by comic book artists and writers. I’m disappointed by their linear thinking of all things in this vast cosmos. Disappointed that their imagination limits them to see things only in bi-pedal or humanoid design. The universe is enormous, and with the creator’s hand aside, I tend to side with the notion that not all things look or resemble human beings. I confident that though we are made in His image, He took some time out on his weekends to doodle a bit.” —Me

anal on my dashboard?

I think not.

I don’t think “..a respectful view on sexuality” translates into images depicting sodomy or anal fixation. Some things are best left on YOUR computer(or cleverly bookmarked).
