Sir Charles Spencer “Charlie” Chaplin never ever fucking said anything like the following:
“I always like walking in the rain, so no one can see me crying.”
We are very concerned about health problems of our employees. We have always been committed to best practices to avoid negative health hazards due to reactive materials used in our manufacturing plant. However, we can’t always prevent accidents and possible harmful effects due to long term exposure, despite of the safety practices. So, we decided to move to solutions that would reduce the human contact with those materials. We found IPSCOT Inc. which provides industrial dispensing solutions and we are very glad that we chose them.
In our manufacturing process, we have to deal with various quantities of different types of liquids with varying viscosity and type. However, this was no problem for IPSCOT Inc. They provide solutions to handle liquids in almost any amount as per client requirements. They provide sandpiper pump to handle liquids of any viscosity. They have highly versatile programmable robots which can be deployed in various kinds of environments.
Installation and transition from our earlier system was painless, thanks to their highly skilled and experienced technicians and trainers. They also have prompt and friendly support and maintenance team which we hope will come in handy since we plan to use their services for a long time into the future.
Now, not only do we have a healthier and safer working environment for employees, but additionally our productivity has increased like never before. So, even if someone is not considering deploying automatic/semi-automatic mechanical chemical dispenser solutions for employees’ health (mostly because good safety practices are good enough in many working environments), it still makes sense to deploy for productivity and reduced employee workload.
There are several others large and small firms that provide similar products and services but we found IPSCOT Inc. had the best solution for our manufacturing plant and we highly recommend them for manufacturing plants which deals with reactive liquids.
Here is how you can stop “America Fuck Yeah” background music from 4chan. UPDATE: It has now been updated for “The Rock” as well.
Install Firefox. Optional: If you use Chrome, uninstall it. Use Firefox.
Install Adblock Plus. In Firefox, go to Tools>Add-ons>Get Addons and search for adblock plus. Install and restart Firefox.
When Firefox starts up, it should ask you for filter list, select any filter list you want… or better don’t select any filter list.
Goto Tools>Adblock Plus Preferences and click on Add Filter. Now enter: “=uGt0nDKu0cg” (updated for “The Rock” music) without quotes in the box and press Enter. (see the pic below, Note: The picture below has a different code which was supposed to stop “America Fuck Yeah”.. make sure to use “=uGt0nDKu0cg” instead).
Hit OK. Now, reload 4chan. The music should be gone.
Please let me know via comments if you find that the music has changed and/or the above is not working for you.
I came across a new web service that allows creating fake facebook status and comments. No more Firebug or Photo editing required. Check out Fakebookstatus.com
Did you know that negative reviews and comments online can have a negative impact to your business? For example Google may ban your websites from its search engine because of bad reputation or bad reviews in some websites may have a bad impression on potential customers. Most consumers spend at least some time online looking for best products/services before making an investment. So, many competitors spend their time and efforts in polluting your brand name to gain an advantage. Negative SEO for your brand means they have a higher possibility that consumers choose their products. So, any amount of SEO tactics may not work for you. Also, many of SEO tactics that are done one time may not help as they might be constantly trying to damage your business. So, a 24 hour tactical team may be required to revive your online business and keep it safe from future attacks.
There are several reputation management services available these days. But there are a very few that can actually take care of the problems and assist with 24 hours dedicated support. One of them that offers reputation management services along with other seo services is ExecutiveSearchPartners. They have a great and friendly team and they are always willing to help.
While I am a supporter of secular system where people can say their stuff and have their advertisements anywhere they are permitted to, I do not support anyone who uses fear and paranoia to scare off people for money. Sadly, that is what many religious leaders and other con artists are doing all over the world. Be it American Mega Churches (that use fear of Christian Hell), Baba Ramdev (who uses fear of diseases, and don’t get me started on this man) or some fanatics like Alex Jones (who uses fear of current world economic system), David Icke (who uses fear of Reptilians who supposedly rule this world) or these adverts, all of these claim expertise in something normal people will have hard time figuring out and then make people believe in their stuff with some half truths and stunts. Then when they get enough people following them, they start ripping off their money by offering books, DVDs and merchandise for a fee.
As you might have noticed by now, there are religious adverts saying “World’s Last Chance”, “The Truth about God” and stuff even if you are on the sites that have nothing to do with God or Devil or anything related. Some of these ads also appear in websites and YouTube channels dedicated to science and reason.
Normally, ads don’t annoy me. In fact advertisement is a way for even genuine people to market their products. They can help us find products which we might otherwise not have known about. On the other hand, advertisements help services and several informational websites become free of charge as they can earn from advertisements alone. Advertisements gives a reason to share information for free. However, some paranoia merchants are also using the same system to spread their paranoia easily to larger audience. That annoys me and I’m sure it annoys other people like me as well.
While we might not be able to shut down such immoral organizations, we can do something about the annoying advertisements which are occupying space which could have been used for something rather informational or useful. Many of these ads are served by Google Adwords and even though I am not very familiar with Adwords, I know that the advertisers pay per click. A big part of what advertisers pay go to websites in which these ads appear.
So, when you see another religious ad in a website or a YouTube channel that has nothing to do with religion or a website or a YouTube channel which encourages science and reason, just go ahead and click it. When you do that, advertisers (those paranoia merchants) lose money and the website owner or YouTube channel owner gets a big part of that money (and the rest goes to Google or another ad serving network). If enough reasonable people start doing that, the paranoia merchants may see less profit or even loss in Internet advertising and drop the idea. That should make the internet a little more cleaner. Even if they keep on advertising, the money goes to people that deserve it more than they do. Also, the advertisers must have budget limitation for a day, which means a limited number of people get to their sites after which their ads stop appearing for the day. A reasonable person clicking their ads means they have one less potential victim. It is a win-win situation.
Wow what a creature and what is going to happen in this world? It is so true, because it was featured in The Blast Times.
Just kidding. Maybe its just me, but if Blast really featured it, the very fact makes a story at best half true for me. Anyone who takes The Blast Times seriously must seriously reconsider their sanity.
Yes 6% of new borns worldwide are with some kind of defects. Some are extremely rare and some are common. The common ones are heart diseases, neural diseases, facial clefts or some minor deformities. Down syndrome is also a common genetic disorder. There are some rare permanent birth disorders.
Most of these defects can be summarized as absence of organs, non functional organs or systems, fused body parts or appearance of extra organs. Many of them are fatal but some are not. Some have cures or treatments.
Still, the next new birth defect is almost unpredictable. In some rare cases, there can be multiple birth defects in the same new born.
However, it is illogical to assume that a person with a body of a python, feet of a chicken, hair of an old woman, beard like a goat can be born. Yes, but what about the video evidence right? That is not a computer generated effect, it is easy to tell, but it is not a real human baby either, thats easy to tell too.
How, you may ask. First, it is impossible (practically at least) for Human genes to be modified such that it can have such features. Second, even if by the smallest probability, such genetic modifications took place, the Human womb would not generate necessary materials for such inhuman organs to grow. So, if the baby was real, the body would have Human skin, maybe deformed or of different color, but would not have patterns of a python. Same thing with the chicken legs.
But what about the story? What about the mother who died giving birth, what about the father taking it to the US? That is entirely a work of fiction. If the story was true, wouldn’t the national media have it featured? Wouldn’t BPKIHS have to say something about it to the national media? It certainly would have been noticed in the airport or the Indian/Chinese border and more media coverage would be obvious, rather than just a third grade local paper which has the history of bullshit news (at least titles) to sell it to innocent travelers. There would be more about it, rather than just one video with a B grade Hindi horror movie sound effects with none of the doctors showing their faces. It would be certainly broad-casted by the American media too.
Many people in our country are ignorant. Most don’t have access to the international media or the Internet. When we have some deformed births in our society, they are usually attached to the work or reincarnation of God or the Devil. The idea of reincarnation or existence of God or Devil or anything as such is pre-modern and should be discarded.
It is not cool to make such fake stuff out of dead python, possibly real Human hair, a dead chicken and then distribute a video claiming it as real Human baby with an emotional story attached to it. It is sick to say the least. But maybe we need more such ridiculously fake stuff to make people immune to future attempts as such. That way, people will hopefully learn to look for proof and think rationally about such phony claims.
UPDATE: The original video appeared in Youtube in January 2009. Here it is with original audio. The language being spoken is probably Indonesian.
(Click here to see comments and description in Youtube)
It is described as a snake found in Prigi Beach, Trenggalek, Indonesia (which is also obviously wrong information).
Here is the conversation that is said to have happened between Maoist leader Krishna Bahadur Mahara and a Chinese:. Mahara has denied this. Here is the full conversation as I heard it from the released conversation audio. Please post your corrections if you find any errors.

NTA and Home Ministry are preparing to put a complete block to porn sites in Nepal. Read the full news here.
While organizations like www.crisisconnectioninc.org have tried to make a connection between porn (along with drugs like Crystal Meth) and sexual violence, they have failed to show any statistical proof.
This site takes a neutral stance and tries to list all the works done against pornography. Other California based writer concludes in his article that porn actually decreases sexual violence.
We can’t take any of these reports/articles for granted though, because in a monetary world, these could be influenced by the ones who make money of porn or lack of it.
If government believes blocking adult material actually benefits the society based on the statistics (like increase in porn surfing leading to increase in sexual crimes), they should take all efforts they can make to stop it by all means. According to OHCHR report of 2007, there have been 40 (or 38, different data in different reports) cases of sexual violence that have been reported. The report also states that many cases go unreported because police may not have taken the reports of “Dalit” victims; also, many may not have reported at all due to social difficulties they might face to live as victims of sexual assaults. Government should be more concerned on making reporting and investigation anonymous and easy for victims than wasting resources in activities like banning porn without any conclusive understanding of the consequences.
Those are the issues the government is probably more aware of. They must have taken various factors into consideration to have come up such a decision. But the issue that concerns me is not the step itself but the difficulty and cost of the process. When it comes to Internet Censorship, the most talked about is China. They not only block Adult and Pornographic content, but also block various news sites, media sharing sites, blogging and several website hosting services. This is achieved by what is known as “The Golden Shield Project”, a part of “The Great Firewall of China”. The preliminary work for this project cost US $800 million. The system uses various levels of protection such as IP filtering, DNS filtering and poisoning, URL filtering, Packet filtering and Connection reset to achieve maximum filtering. However, this can still be bypassed using secure VPN, onion routing services and proxies or softwares that automatically select available proxies and change them.
The questions that have been circulating in Nepali Internet Community are:
Will it be any good?
Is it worth it?
