“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

A Message For Children and A Warning For Adults

This is pretty cool.  An amazing innovation that could literally save a life.  Considering all the recent events over the discovery of the three women who were kidnapped as young children or teenagers, giving a little to this foundation to help abused children wouldn't hurt.

The ANAR foundation has developed an advertisement that uses a lenticular lens to display two different messages at the same time;  One for adults and one for children.  The one for children urges the child to seek help with a number to call, whereas the adult version has nothing listed.  It uses a technology where only certain heights can see certain messages.  This will give the child a chance to find help without alerting the abuser.

iDoctor: The Future of Healthcare

How much time does one spend at the doctor?  I'm going to say a good amount of time.  But the real question is - how much do you end up spending?  For many Americans a simple test can cost upwards of $800.00 according the video you're about to see.   Imagine taking a urine, saliva, blood, and EKG test from the comfort of your own home? It's possible, and according to one of the top cardiologist in the country, it will.

"Why do we have people being treated like cattle heard?  That's waste! And billions of dollars that's being wasted each year for screening, and the wrong drugs, and the wrong everything - it's outstanding! And we just can't go on like this." - Dr. Eric Topol

iPad 3 Facts

The folks at Joy of Tech have released this wonderful chart showing you the truth about the new iPad 3, and why they think you should get this awesome new pad.  

I, for one, am enjoying the original iPad.  I don't get why people keep buying the newer versions of everything, nothing really changes in their lives. LOL.  Seriously. I use mine to check email, get on the internet, read books, blog, and watch videos.  What is so different about the iPad2 or 3 that will make it more convenient for me?  It's not like I'm going to be walking around taking pictures with this huge square object.  I have my iPhone for that. Just sayn'.

2012 GM Advanced Tech Window

I'm starting to think there's really nothing one can't do.  

General Motors has not implemented this innovative technology into their vehicles, but I'm sure you'll be seeing it in the near future.  As you will see in the video below, GM challenged Bezalel Academy graduate students from Israel to conceptualize new experiences for rear seat passengers. And this when the Windows of Opportunity Project was born.

It's actually pretty darn cool.  I wish this were around when I was a kid.  It sure would have kept me occupied during the 9 hour trip to grandma's house.  And it would've definitely kept me and my sister from fighting in the backseat so much, LOL.
