Armed DHS officers setup ID checkpoint in Florida

Residents of Leesburg, Florida were shocked to see their local Social Security office turned into a random Homeland Security checkpoint Tuesday morning, as DHS officers armed with semiautomatic rifles and accompanied by sniffer dogs checked identifications of locals.

“With their blue and white SUVs circled around the Main Street office, at least one official was posted on the door with a semiautomatic rifle, randomly checking identifications. And other officers, some with K-9s, sifted through the building,” reports the Daily Commercial.

Boy inhales entire balloon and passes out with scissors in hand!

I think we all have inhaled helium to hear our funny voice but this video takes it to the next level..

A friend of my FOUND this on his video camera. Apparently his son had “borrowed” the camera to make his own helium video. He takes some scissors, cuts open the mylar balloon, inhales the entire ballon then hits the floor with scissors in hand..

Enjoy!

11 Dangerous things you SHOULD let you kids do!

Noel playing with fire.

Kudos to the Huffington Post for this very good article!

The original idea for a whole book about dangerous things you should let your children do was a bit of a ﬂuke. But after spending a weekend watching kids lick a 9-volt battery for the ﬁrst time (at Maker Faire Bay Area) or reading about families who blog their way through the book (like the Johnsen Clan, featured in this slideshow) it’s clear that what kids needs these days is… more danger in their lives!

Toy Remote control car saves the lives of 6 soldiers in Afghanistan

Staff Sgt. Christopher Fessenden is on duty in Afghanistan now after tours with the Army in Iraq. He has traveled with standard-issue equipment — weapons, helmet, uniform, boots and so forth — plus a radio-controlled model truck his brother sent.

The truck is not a toy to him. He says it just saved six soldiers’ lives.

There is an insane squirrel in my backyard

All day today, this insane squirrel has been hanging out, laying on my rock wall. Every now and then he gets up to grab an acorn or runs up the tree. He always ends up laying on the wall.

World Health Organization: Cell phone use can increase possible cancer risk

WHO classifies cell phone radiation as cancer causing

WHO dropped a bombshell on the cell phone industry with a recent report comparing Cell Phone Radiation to carcinogens such as lead, chloroform and other cancer causing agents.

(CNN) — Radiation from cell phones can possibly cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization. The agency now lists mobile phone use in the same “carcinogenic hazard” category as lead, engine exhaust and chloroform.
Before its announcement Tuesday, WHO had assured consumers that no adverse health effects had been established.
A team of 31 scientists from 14 countries, including the United States, made the decision after reviewing peer-reviewed studies on cell phone safety. The team found enough evidence to categorize personal exposure as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.”

A very interesting quote from Dr. Keith Black, chairman of neurology at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles,

The type of radiation coming out of a cell phone is called non-ionizing. It is not like an X-ray, but more like a very low-powered microwave oven.

“What microwave radiation does in most simplistic terms is similar to what happens to food in microwaves, essentially cooking the brain. So in addition to leading to a development of cancer and tumors, there could be a whole host of other effects like cognitive memory function, since the memory temporal lobes are where we hold our cell phones.”

What that means is that right now there haven’t been enough long-term studies conducted to make a clear conclusion if radiation from cell phones are safe, but there is enough data showing a possible connection that consumers should be alerted.

Are you being tracked by Apple? YES!

As the world moves toward smart phones loaded with features, the unintended consequences are starting to surface. The fury developing over Apples un-encryped tracking logs showing everywhere you have been, is finally starting to gain national attention.

You may wonder, how much is really tracked? EVERYTHING. Here is my map of where Apple has tracked me.
