Hand-Washing Detectors Coming Soon
By Jo Oliver
"Have you ever been at a hospital and wondered if the doctor, nurse, etc.. washed their hands between seeing you and the patient before you? Thanks to a new technology, we may now have an answer to that question. A hand hygiene sensor, developed by the University of Florida, can detect if the health care professional entering a patients room has washed their hands."

Five Fish With Amazing Mouths
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Alligator_gar.jpgThe waterways of the world are filled with fascinating, frightening, and anomalous creatures. These five have amazing mouths.
The Alligator Gar is a fresh water fish that is native to North American. It is the largest of the gar species. Unlike other gar relatives, it has two rows of large teeth in the upper jaw. The alligator-like teeth and long snout easily explain the name. Amazingly, it can live for around two hours out of water. It is not odd for this fish to weight 200-300 pounds and grow to 8-10 ft in length. The Alligator Gar relies on ambush to kill prey. However, despite rumors of being a man killer, it is not an aggressive species by nature and prefers solitude. My husband caught a five ft Alligator Gar in Mississippi, and I can attest that the teeth and size make this one intimidating fish.
Now, read about the other four amazing fish at Triond: Five Fish With Amazing Mouths.

Bo Jack Russo: The Man, The Machine, The Writer
You know, I think that the reason that so many people in the world are so unhappy is because we forget about all the things that made us happy as children. As adults, we associate pleasure with money, fame and fortune. As children, we find pleasure in the simplest treat life hands us....like an ice cream cone on a smothering day. Our imagination is often lost to realities of paying bills, raising children, and finding personal "success." But, every once in awhile, there is a person that has never lost that child like imagination, and even better, has the ability to share their imagination with the rest of us. That said, I would like to introduce everyone to Bo Jack Russo:

Meaningful Poetry Is An Art
What makes a person a poet. Is it pretty words tied nicely with rhythmic ribbons? I personally think that it takes much more than words to make a poet. Anyone can come up with rhythmic words and slap them together.
How often do you read a poem and wonder : What was the author trying to convey? What feeling did he want to leave me with? What was the purpose or origin behind the words? I think a good poet never leaves those questions unanswered. For example, it is fine to write a poem about the gum on your loafer as a reflection on how sticky it is to tread through life. However, the real meaning is all to often lost in poor translation by the author. All the reader takes away is that the author is tired of stepping in gum.
Of course, we are all going to take away a little something different away from every poem, but when that last word is read, then the reader should feel something and have a clear sense of purpose. No one seems to leave me with that clarity like my friend, Bullwinkle Muse. He is not only a wordsmith…..he is an artist when it comes to giving words a purpose and feeling.

Depression: New Approaches to an Age Old Problem
By: Jo Oliver
"......The commonly accepted antidepressant medications and therapies are just often out of reach for those without insurance or monetary means.However, there are some interesting studies out there about some different and often cheaper techniques that are being used to assist in the treatment and management of depression. Again, this is not a substitute for medical opinion, diagnosis, or treatment. It is just an information guide for potential options to speak with a health care provider about.
Omega -3 Supplements
The journal, "Nutrition" recently published a study showing that women who consumed high levels of omega- 3 fatty acid fish (tuna, mackerel, albacore tuna) reported fewer symptoms of depression. Another older study found that lab rats fed fish oil have higher levels of the "happiness" hormone, dopamine.............."

Jamie Foxx to Miley Cyrus: Get STD's, Drugs, Sex Tapes, and Gay Lovers
By: Jo Oliver
"We all remember the off color, no pun intended, remarks that Don Imus made. It resulted in him loosing his job and the near ruin of his career. Well, this weekend Jamie Fox had one of the crudest and atrocious dialogues that I’ve ever heard. However, the news and the public seems to be writing it off as just harmless “humor” from a shock jock.The weekend “Foxxhole” Sirius Radio show had a dialogue break out between Jamie Foxx and his posse about Miley Cyrus. Miley was brought into the conversation because she recently posted on a social network site about her ire over not being allowed backstage at the Grammy’s to meet the band, Radiohead. The conversation about sixteen year old Miley Cyrus suddenly went from mildly funny to raunchy, racist, and repulsive............"

Why To Hate Twilight: Rebuttal
By Jo Oliver
"This weekend the weather was bad and there was nothing on television. Therefore, I decided to rent the only thing that I hadn’t already seen on PPV. I was astounded at how wonderful the movie was, and immediately wanted to see what my fellow Triond writers thought of Twilight. Of course, I found tons of pro Twilight articles. However, I found one article, “Why To Hate Twilight” that was written to bash the Twilight series. The author composed 95 reasons to hate Twilight, most of which I adamantly disagree with. Some of the reasons were just too nonsensical to even address. Reasons like- because it is “stupid”, “dumb , and Harry Potter could beat the main Twilight character with his magic powers, etc… wasn’t worth my time and effort. So, I just picked a few out of the article to rebut here. All of the quotes were taken from Sarah Rebeccas’ "Why To Hate Twilight" article here.
“Bella is a perfect character (“Mary Sue”) that Meyer hides by calling her clumsy.”
1. Bella is not a perfect character. She comes from a broken home, hasn’t seen her father in years, and she is shy and awkward. The idea that she is a perfect character is clearly negated by the mere fact that she attempts suicide. Perfect people would never feel so unworthy of life....."

President Obama Compares White House Bowling To Special Olympics
By: Jo Oliver
"...Everyone can say something thoughtless, and then regret saying it. Again, I honestly do not think that President Obama intended anything derogatory. I applaud him for owning the fact that it was a thoughtless statement. However, it is very unnerving to know that he could be so careless with his words. Intended or not, it is also very insulting to compare his causal bowling effort and skill to that of Special Olympians giving it everything and all to bowl a 129."

Glenn Beck and His 9/12 Project
"This past Friday Mr. Beck announced his 9/12 project. The point of the project begins by looking at 9/10, and then discovering how to get back to the way Americans felt on 9/12. On 9/10 life was normal and partisan politics was alive and kicking. On 9/11 Americans were hysterical, and no one knew what to do. But, by 9/12 no one had to tell Americans what to do. We sat aside our politics, religion, skin color, etc.. and “just did it.” Americans gave everything they could from their blood, money, and time. So, the main point of the project is to bring America out of divisiveness and back to working together for a common purpose….our freedom and prosperity. 9/10 can be compared to pre-economic crisis, 9/11 as today, and 9/12 as what we do in the future....."

“Totally Stylin Tattoos Barbie" Causing Uproar with Parents
By: Jo Oliver
"....For example, the 1965 “Slumber Party Barbie” had women’s organizations crying foul from the moment it was released. The doll was boxed with a book called “How to Lose Weight” and a set of bathroom scales with “110lb” printed on it. Critics argued that a real life 5 foot 9 inch tall woman would be at least 35 pounds underweight at 110 pounds. Then there was the 1997 “Share a Smile Becky.” Becky sported a pink wheelchair, the chair wouldn’t fit into the elevator or doors of the Barbie dream house. My favorite taboo Barbie was the pregnant midge doll. This Barbie had a bulging belly, and when opened, an infant would pop out.
In 1999, Mattel released their “Butterfly Art Barbie.” The butterfly tattoo covered the stomach of Barbie, and came boxed with tattoos for the child. It only took four months for parents to complain in droves. The Barbie doll was immediately pulled from the shelves......"

Lenders Not There When Needed
BY: Chloe Oliver
"....One day, I accompanied my mother to the pharmacy where she did business. As she attempted to place the needed items on her usual charge account there, the clerk stated that she was not sure if my mother could charge any more items until the balance was paid.
The clerk turned to ask the owner who was a few feet away working at the pharmacy cubicle. I heard the owner in a loud voice state that my mother could have anything in the store that she wanted and in any quantities that she needed. He also told the clerk not to ask him about this again.
My mother used this pharmacy for over 50 years. I have used them for more than 30 years. Naturally, I recommend the pharmacy to others. In my mother's declining years, she often stressed to be certain to pay any bill at the pharmacy upon her death. During the last year of my mother's life, her pharmacy bill averaged about $600 per month. I paid the bill.
Now, many Americans are facing difficult times. How have lenders and big business responded? They are so afraid of losing money that they are denying credit to those who need it most....."

The Ancient Digger: Macrophotography of Massive Cave Art
By: Lauren Axelrod
"...In a recent music class, my professor gave the class a glimpse in the first sandskrit, found over 6000 years ago. I sat puzzled, thinking that this piece of history couldn't possibly been the first evidence of a written language. In fact, many depictions of language was presented on the walls of caves over 16,000 years ago.
So I ask you. Why do many people try to accept writting on sanskrit, dated 6000 years ago referring to biblical verses, rather that the cave art that has been dated back several more thousands of years?
So what do you believe? Here are two prime examples of Paleolithic Art that occured several thousands of years before creation..."

Nadya Suleman: The Lies and Fraud of Octuplet Mom
"...Welfare Mom Or Not?
First of all, Nadya doesn’t have a job. She told Ann Curry that for the last ten years she has been living off of $168,000 dollars worth of disability payments totaling $168,000 and around $50,000 in student loans. She adamantly denied any welfare assistance. IShortly afterwards, the media reported that Nadya Suleman receives $490.00 a month in food stamps. Her publicist responded, "She (Nadya) doesn't regard that as welfare, but as payments available to people with needs." Ah….what does she think the definition of welfare is? Welfare, according to Encarta, is: “aid to people in need. Financial aid and other benefits for people who are unemployed, below a specific income level, or otherwise requiring assistance, especially when provided by a government agency or program.”
Secondly, Medi-Cal, California’s version of health care for the poor, paid for the prenatal care, the enormous cost of the birth, and will pay an estimated 1 million dollars for the eight infants neonatal intensive care unit stay.

Mitt Romney Wins 2009 CPAC Straw Poll
The Republican party has finally realized, albeit a day late and a dollar short, that they strayed from their conservative base principles in 2008. It has also finally dawned on the party that the economy did, and will for several more years, overshadow all other issues.
I really do think the GOP is finally catching on. If the economy is the major issue….then you don’t nominate a candidate that 6 months prior to the nomination tells a newspaper “I am not an economy expert. I do not know anything about the economy; that is why I have advisors.” - like McCain did. Instead, you nominate a candidate that has spent his entire life engrossed in economics and has an actual working knowledge of economics.
In my opinion, the GOP had their perfect candidate in 2008, but was too worried whether or not he wore magic underwear.
