Natalee Holloway disappeared on May 30, 2005 and her family still has not received closure for which the Aruban Government in my opinion has contributed. As little as I and most people think of the main suspect, Joran van der Sloot, I truly don’t think he or her friends murdered her or that he is some kind of criminal mastermind. At this point 3 1/2 years gone, it seems to me the Aruban Government is no closer to solving what happened to Natalee which is why I don’t understand why they don’t offer Joran, Daddy Dearest and his his pals full criminal and civil immunity to testify what happened as long as they didn’t murder, attack or rape her. I admit I’m not a lawyer and I don’t know if immunity from civil litigation is possible nor do I know if Aruba can grant criminal immunity.

My own theory as to what happened to Natalee just based on common sense and process of elimination is they were all doing drugs and Natalee accidentally OD’d and died and rather than contact the police and risk getting charged with something and possibly causing embarrassment to his father’s career as a judge, Joran got rid of the body with help. This to me is the only thing that makes sense. I can’t see him or his friends murdering her or raping or attacking her as they don’t have any previous history of violent crime that I’m aware of. If they truly weren’t aware of what happened to Natalee then there wouldn’t have been a reason for them to tell lies in the first place. If somehow Natalee died accidentally and it had nothing to do with drugs, then it would have made no sense at all for them not to call the police.

At this point, Joran van der Sloot, daddy dearest and his friends, names and reputations have been damaged beyond belief, so if they didn’t actually murder, rape or attack her, and they are offered full immunity, at this point in time isn’t that enough for finding out what really happened? I really think that waiting for evidence to actually put them in jail is not going to happen if it hasn’t happened by now and at this point Natalee’s family needs to know the truth, even if it means giving Joran van Der Sloot and company full immunity, assuming they didn’t physically harm her.

The thing I hate about renting DVDs is, at least 25% of the time I get a screwed up one that some cretin has messed up and dumped on to the next renter. I’m sure that has happened to most people reading this and here are some tips to help you get it to play correctly. My tips can also be applied to CDs when they skip. Before I go on, some DVDs are so screwed up that no matter what you do, they won’t play right but before you take or send them back for a replacement, you might as a final option, see if they play right on your computer. I’ve done this a couple of times. Obviously its not as much fun as watching on a big screen TV listening in 5.1 or 7.1 Sound, but its a final alternative.

Whenever you hold a DVD, you want to hold it on its edges because the slightest fingerprint may cause it to skip. Here by priority is what I do if I get a bum DVD:

1. Put the shiny side under hot running water for 10-15 seconds and then dry it off with a towel. If it plays right great, if it doesn’t run it again under hot water and dry. If it still doesn’t play right, go to step 2.

2. Buy a Skip Dr. Automax DVD CD Repair System which costs about $34 and you can get this in Chain Stores and online. Skip Dr. Automax DVD repair system runs on batteries and it Fixes scratches that can cause discs to skip, freeze, and fail to play, is a completely automated disc repair system and Motorized, battery-operated, chemical-free operation. It includes Resurfacing fluid, Buffing cloth and a User’s guide and is very fast and easy to use and had a high success rate fixing DVDs I rented and my CDs. I was surprised how good it works. The resurfacing fluid is replaceable and inexpensive.

3. It’s Not You, it’s Me! If both of the above fail, then maybe the problem could be with your DVD player itself, specifically the laser lens which may need cleaning. You need a Lens Cleaner which is simply a disc that cleans your DVD player (or CD player or Computer drive) when you put it in and press play. I use Maxell Lens Cleaner which you can get for around $12 online and in a store and is also easy and effective to use. This may solve the problem, if the problem is your DVD player itself.

If none of the above solve the problem, see if the DVD will play on your computer if you’re willing to watch from there. If it doesn’t play right on the computer or you’re not willing to watch from it, then don’t lose sleep, you’ve done as much as you can and just return the DVD. I would recommend though that you have the Skip Dr. Automax DVD CD Repair System and the Maxell Lens Cleaner or similar products on hand as that way you have a decent chance of fixing the DVD.

Calvin Hill, One of the Best Ivy League Football Players to Play in the NFL

The NFL does not draft many Ivy League Football Players, in fact last year there were none. Yale has had the most players drafted, 22, during this period. There have been only 2 Ivy League players drafted in the first round since 1967: Calvin Hill of Yale in 1969 who in my opinion was the best pro football player from the Ivy League and Marty Domres of Columbia also in 1969.

I just saw and heard an amazing performance of Tom Petty’s “Free Fallin’” by a singer/actress/model named Elena Satine on CBS’s Cold Case and to my utter disappointment it apparently is not available commercially. Before I go on, props to Elena Satine who I admit I never heard of till I saw her on “Cold Case” last night where she did a great job acting and singing and to me was positively enchanting performing “Free Fallin” which included an operatic interlude of “Va, pensiero”, a chorus from Verdi’s opera “Nabucco”. Click Here to Watch this Amazing Performance. For those who didn’t see the episode, the guy staring at her is her Cold Case character’s father who disproved of her not following Opera but changed his mind after seeing this performance. Her character was recording the cassette for her school project

Anyone who reads this Blog knows how I think Cold Case is a fascist, idiotic, moronic joke, but this episode with Elena Satine titled “Triple Threat” was actually really good. I hope Elena Satine releases an album soon which includes this arrangement of “Free Fallin”. Apparently she has no albums out which is a shame. If you have a chance to watch this episode of “Cold Case” do it. This chick was great!

Heres a Blog I wrote about how Cold Case promotes denial of Civil Rights and Due Process Click Here

Heres another Blog I wrote about my Cold Case Fantasy of the Cold Case Detectives Getting in Trouble for Getting A Suspect to Make a False Confession Click Here

I thought “Raiders of the Lost Ark” was one of the best movies I ever saw but I admit I haven’t seen it in 27 years. My memories of the other Indiana Jones movies are basically forgotten but I know I thought they weren’t bad.

I watched the South Park episode, “The China Problem” in which Kyle, Stan and Kenny have nightmares in which George Lucas and Steven Spielberg “rape” Indiana Jones, in the sense that the latest Indiana Jones movie did an injustice to the earlier films. Having not seen “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” yet this didn’t make sense to me.

Well, I just rented the DVD and true confession time, I stopped watching this piece of crap after an hour and 15 minutes. I don’t know if I’ve just aged too much in the 27 years since “Raiders of the Lost Ark” or “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” is meant to be a childrens movie that was phoned in, There is no originality at all, one could care less about the characters including Indy, it looks like every scene is like a contrived “paint by the numbers” scene, the Indiana Jones escapes a nuclear explosion by refrigerator scene is an insult to the intelligence of anyone with an IQ. Shia LaBeouf looks like he’s in a Saturday Night Live sketch doing Marlon Brando in “the Wild One” and Cate Blanchett looks and sounds like shes doing a bad imitation of Natasha in a Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoon not an Indiana Jones movie.

I found after an hour and fifteen minutes of this, I could care less what goes on and how the movie ends and just turned the DVD off. This movie sucks. South Park was right.

Wow field goal kicking in the NFL sure has changed a lot in the last 40 years. Nowadays it seems if a kicker isn’t hitting 85% of his field goal attempts they’re history but not so in the NFL past. Take the case of the 1965 New York Giants. I had to read this from 4 different online sources to believe it. I’m guessing off the top of my head that the 1965 New York Giants had the NFL’s worst field goal record in the last 50 years and I can’t figure out how prey tell this was allowed to happen. The 1965 New York Giants went and I kid you not, 4 for 25 in field goals made, a 16% rate. That’s right, they made 4 filed goals in 25 attempts. I was a kid living in New York City then and somehow I wasn’t aware of this record for futility until I accidentally stumbled on this looking up some NFL kickers. I can’t imagine another NFL team doing worse on field goals in the last 50 years in the NFL - please let me know if there was a worse team.

You would figure that if the Giants kicking was that bad during the 1965 season, they would have replaced their kicker. But noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Here’s what happened as far as I can
reconstruct from researching online. The Giants has a field goal kicker named Andy Stynchula who was 3 for 7 for field goals. Stynchula also played Defensive Lineman. Early in an October 24 game against the Cleveland Browns, he twisted an ankle and could no longer kick. Prior to that, on October 3, 1965 for some reason, Bob Timberlake, a third round draft pick at quarterback from the University of Michigan who also kicked in College, kicked a 43 yard field goal against the Pittsburgh Steelers in a 23-13 win. This field goal was the last field goal the Giants made for the rest of the season! Timberlake took over as field goal kicker and was 0 for 15. That’s right, 0 for 15. Why the New York Giants Head Coach Allie Sherman didn’t replace Timberlake as field goal kicker is beyond comprehension. The good news is that Timberlake converted 21 of 22 extra points.

It just seems amazing that in a place like New York City, the Head Coach wasn’t run out of town for sticking with a field goal kicker who missed 15 straight field goal attempts. Just before the start of this current NFL Season, Jay Feeley was cut by the Miami Dolphins after hitting 21 of 23 field goals, a 91.3 percentage. I wonder what exactly was going through Head Coach Allie Sherman’s head by sticking with an 0 for 15 field goal kicker. What’s even more amazing is this feat of futility seems to have been lost in time like it never happened. Its like something out of the Twilight Zone. But then again, Sarah Palin could have become President.

Here are four great inexpensive accessories that I’d recommend for your Laptop or Notebook that I have myself: a cordless mouse, screen cleaner, laptop cooling pad and portable speakers. Please don’t take this blog as an Infomercial as these are the only accessories I own for my laptop.

Logitech V200 Cordless Mouse

If you like using a mouse when on your laptop or notebook, this cordless mouse is great. It goes from anywhere from $29 to $40 new online and about $14 used. It includes a tiny receiver device that goes into your USB slot.

Here is an official description from the manufacturer and some specifications:

Maximize your productivity, where ever you are—at your desk, on the road, or even in the conference room down the hall.

The Logitech V200 Cordless Notebook Mouse is designed for the demanding mobile professional. Compact, with an unsurpassed battery life of up to one year, the V200 guarantees comfort and reliable performance on the road.

Its 2.4GHz digital cordless technology provides longer range compared to traditional wireless, and delivers interference-free operation. The 2.4GHz micro-receiver snaps into the mouse for easy transport and turns it off for power efficiency. Invisible Light optical tracking delivers smooth, precise control and the Tilt Wheel Plus Zoom makes side-to-side scrolling effortless. All of this is wrapped up in a durable design that’s ideal for business-class mobility.

Monster Screen Clean

I was shocked how good this worked on my Toshiba Tecra A8-S8513 Notebook as it made a complete night and day difference from my incredibly dirty screen with finger marks and the incredibly glossy screen after I cleaned it. The screen honestly looked brand new. This seems to go for $20-$24.99 new online and can be used on Plasma, LCD and Big Screen TV’s, Camera lenses and LCD screens, laptop, notebook and computer monitors, portable DVD players and Direct view TVs. Here

Includes:

X-PAD Laptop Cooling Stand

A laptop (notebook) cooling pad is a pad you put under your laptop/notebook to prevent it from overheating. Because today’s laptops and notebooks rely on fast processors to do the job, they generate a lot of heat, with much of it landing directly in your lap. Some laptops can have a “normal” operating temperature as high as 120 degrees Fahrenheit! Not only is that unsafe and uncomfortable, it can also wear your laptop down, cause it to crash unexpectedly, and reduce its overall life expectancy.

I use the Xpad, a portable non-slip laptop pad that cools the laptop computer while protecting the user from laptop heat. It features an elegant lightweight design, thin profile, comfortable padding, and smart non-slip interfaces. Goes for about $25 New Online.

Here is the official description of the X-Pad:

Keep your laptop cooler by up to 30 degrees and shield your lap by up to 60 degrees

Reducing laptop heat extends laptop life, increases performance
Non-slip Laptop Cooler & Heatshield)

Cools your laptop without fans

Protects your lap from laptop heat

Non-slip interface keeps your laptop on your lap

No Fans — 100% Passive Cooling!

Keeps your lap cool for an indefinite period!

Comfortable non-slip

Logitech V10 USB Notebook Speakers

Like most people the sound of my built in laptop/notebook speakers isn’t any great fireworks. These small portable speakers make up for that and give you really great sound for your money, which is about $34 New Online (They list for $50). They are louder, pokier & crisper then my internal speakers & are powered on by a simple USB cord. Nothing else is needed and they are very small & light & have their own small stands.

Here are the official specs:

* USB provides power and digital quality audio. No other cables or power are necessary.
* Lightweight, for maximum portability
* Matched quad micro drivers deliver clear, smooth audio
* Easily change the volume level with conveniently located controls
* Protective travel bag organizes your cables and speakers

I thought the Ghost Whisperer on CBS couldn’t get more moronic and idiotic after last weeks show where they killed off the second lead character, Jim Clancy (David Conrad) by having a cop fire blindly at 2 silhouettes in a window on a darkened night. I was wrong. The writers on this show must be on LSD or something as no one writes stuff this idiotic.

In what to me was the biggest Jump the Shark moment in the history of TV. during Jim’s funeral service all of a sudden everyone decided to get up and dance to the Young Rascal’s “Good Lovin’” which ended with Melinda doing one of the weirdest dance moves one does at a funeral to 60’s music and then dancing with her dead husband. Does it get any more ridiculous then this? This show is like a Bad Acid Trip!

If you’re a computer beginner, I thought I would alert you to the fact if you’re not aware that every time you install a new program or there is a Windows Update to your computer or your Internet Browser (Internet Explorer, Firefox, etc.) updates, the registry on your computer changes. What this means in plain English is that unless you run your computer through a registry program to correct registry problems caused by these changes your computer may encounter problems it previously didn’t have.

What I do is very simple. Every time a new program, update or upgrade is installed in my computer via myself, windows, my Internet Browser or another program, I immediately run my computer through the following programs:

1. (TuneUp Utilities) 1-Click Maintenance quickly cleans up your registry and hard drive with one click. 1-Click Maintenance is part of this software and is the basic application I use from it.

2. Advanced Registry Optimizer cleans, repairs and optimizies your PC Registry. Errors in your registry accumulate over time and can lead to crashes, reduced performance and unwanted slow-downs. By downloading and frequently using a top-rated registry cleaner like Advanced Registry Optimizer, you can stabilize your system’s performance quickly and easily.

3. (PC Tools)Registry Mechanic is an advanced registry cleaner for that can safely clean and repair problems with your registry in a few simple mouse clicks! Easily fix problems with the Windows registry that are a common cause of crashes and error messages. I find this compliments Registry Optimizer and I recommend both.

You need to have at least one good registry repairer software. I have 3 because I’m a bit paranoid and don’t want to leave anything to chance. I’d recommend if you just want one to use Advanced Registry Optimizer. Whether you get one registry repair program or more, you should definitely run it every time there is a change on your computer from a new program, browser update,windows update, or you updating a new program, to avoid any problems caused.

I don’t know if you noticed this but Heroes on NBC kills off more minorities then any TV show around! I’m a non-political oblivious white man and even I noticed this. If you’re read my blog, you know I’m not PC, but this is ridiculous. I know at least 4 Blacks, 1 Mexican, 1 Asian and one Hispanic have been killed off this show and there probably have been more. The list could have been larger if I included Mohinder Suresh’s father but as he was not really a part of the regular cast, I didn’t. If you’re a minority actor, chances of you lasting on the show a while are almost as bad as the “new crewman” on the away team on the original Star Trek series. Here is a role call of the Heroes Minorities Murdered Off in Action:

Simone Deveaux - Black

Civilian and Peter Petrelli and Isaac Mendez’s love interest accidentally shot and killed by Isaac who was trying to kill Peter. Minority on Minority killing.

Isaac Mendez - Hispanic

New York comic book heroin shooting artist who paints the future and was murdered by Syler.

D.L. Hawkins - Black

D.L. was able to walk through solid objects and was husband of Niki Sanders and father of Micah Sanders both of who had super powers as well. D.L. was shot to death by a stranger for the sake apparently of meaningless violence due to a minority TV character.

Alejandro Herrera - Mexican

Alejandro is able to use his power to suppress and counteract the effect of Maya’s fatal ability. Honestly, I welcome the death of his character and wished Maya had bought the bucket as well not because they were minorities but because they were annoying characters. Sylar killed Alejandro with his knife not his powers because at the time he had lost the use of them.

Kaito Nakamura - Asian

Hiro’s father, Gay Star Trek Alumni, founding member and important official of the Company. According to Wikipedia, in a deleted scene “Kaito says he can see the variables of any situation and predict the outcome. He claims he is faster than a computer and attributes his success in the stock market to this ability.” Kaito was murdered by Adam Monroe who pushed him off a roof - ouch!

Usutu - Black

The latest minority killed. Usutu had the ability to see in the future like Isaac but he painted the future on rocks and like Isaac got murdered. Arthur Petrelli, Peter Petrelli’s father, beheaded him with his powers.

To anyone who thinks I’ve overexagerated something, compare the number of minority characters murdered on the show to white characters murdered and tell me if that is a normal percentage?

I’ve blogged before about CBS’s Cold Case TV drama which in my opinion has become the most Fascist Show in the History of television advocating the denial of a persons civil rights and violating due process. CBS should fire all the writers of this show and do an investigation as to whether there is a secret agenda of this show to promote the denial of civil rights and the suspension of due process. The November 9, 2008 episode of Cold Case, “One Small Step”, was the most blatant promotion of Denial of a persons Civil Rights I have ever seen on TV. I am not a bleeding heart liberal but Network TV should not be allowed to promote the denial of civil rights.

Basically what happened in this episode was the Cold Case Moron Squad was investigating the murder of a 12 year old that happened 39 years ago. They basically figured out who did it and during their questioning of the suspect, before he admitted anything, he said “You know I want a Lawyer”. At this point, questioning should have immediately ceased but no, the Fascist writers of Cold Case thought its all good and the Detectives continued with their questioning like business as usual. The suspect as all Cold Case Imbecile Suspects do, of course confesses for no sane reason and is arrested and put in a cell. At least I’ll give the Suspect credit for doing something that few if any Cold Case suspects do, he asked for a Lawyer! I guess the fascist writers don’t understand that as soon as a suspect asks for a Lawyer questioning must immediately stop as part of due process and a persons civil rights.

Of course if this went to Court, even a lousy Law School Student would get the entire confession thrown out of court because it was made after he asked for a lawyer. But “Cold Case” would never show that.

I believe in law and order but not to the extent that a persons Civil Rights are deliberately violated. CBS needs to have this Fascist Show clean up its act.

Just a quick post to save people time and frustration if they blog using Wordpress 2.51 and suddenly can’t upload. After wasting about 3 hours trying to get Wordpress 2.51 to upload, I found out that apparently when I updated my Adobe Flash Player 9 to Adobe Flash Player 10, it caused the upload function not to work. As soon as I uninstalled Adobe Flash Player 10, the upload function on Wordpress worked fine. I then reinstalled Adobe Flash Player 9 which I found by Googling. I’m not saying not to download Adobe Flash Player 10 if you use Wordpress 2.51 but if you find its caused your upload function not to work just uninstall it and reinstall Adobe Flash Player 9.

For anyone who’s new to online dating or to people who have tried online dating before to mixed results, here are some tips to make your online dating experience as easy and successful as possible based on my own successes and failures.

Before You Make Arrangements to Meet for a Date

1. Make sure he or she sends a good representative picture of themselves if its not posted online. You should also do the same. To be quite blunt, if you’re not attracted to the persons photo, chances are you’re not going to be attracted to them in person and you’d be wasting your time and their time meeting as well as feeling awkward. If they make an excuse for not having a photo, don’t believe them and go on to someone else. If they send you or post a stupid photo of themselves - i.e. a baby photo, them in a Halloween Costume, a faded distant photo, dismiss them as well, as they didn’t respect your wishes for a good photo and even if they were by some miracle physically attractive, their actions show they won’t respect you as a person.

2. Make sure you get a full name and a phone number. If you don’t, they’re trying to hide something and they’re bad news that you shouldn’t bother with.

Phone Them Up and Make a Date

1. Once you have their phone number, phone them up right away. Limit your call to 15 minutes at most because you want to have things to say on your first date.

2. Make a definite date on the first call and for as soon as possible. If you don’t all you will be doing is talking to the person on the phone again and again and if you ever do meet, find you have little to say on the first date! Seriously!

3. If you can’t make a date within 4 days at most, chances are its not going to happen and write it off.

4. Make the date in a nice public place and unless you’re sure this is the person of your dreams, make it for a drink only as this way you can both leave within a half hour if its not working out and it doesn’t cost you much. If they could be the person of your dreams then take them out to dinner at a nice place. But remember, unless you are 100% sure that this person could be the one, just make it a drink. If it turns out your both having a great time during drinks then you can always turn it into dinner anyway.

5. Ask them to confirm the day of your date. Chances are some people will get cold feet so at least you won’t have your time wasted if they do. If they call with an excuse, don’t believe them and don’t try to talk them out of it and just say nicely that they should give you a call when they’re free. Chances are they’re all lying so forget about them and move on.

Your Date

1. Dress good for the date as you want to leave a good first impression because people judge you on the first 10 seconds they look at you. If you don’t look good it means you didn’t care enough about them to try to leave a good impression.

2. Treat your date like a blind date and don’t start the conversation with how awkward it is meeting like this or how you’ve never done this before or how you’ve done this before, as that will just set an awkward uncomfortable unsexy tone. Just treat it like a blind date.

3. If you’ve met for drinks and the date isn’t going good or the person isn’t what you’re looking for, after about 30 minutes just be perfectly blunt and tell the person that you need to be honest and say your both not each others type or something but it was nice meeting you. Alternatively lie and say that it was nice meeting them but you have to look after a friends child or something and you have to leave but it was nice meeting them.

4. If the date is going good for drinks as I said, you might wish to make it dinner and take it from there.

5. If you’ve made it dinner and its not going well then you’re going to have to tough it out because as I told you, you should have made it drinks unless you absolutely knew this was the one.

I hope this works out for you and if it doesn’t just try, try again as it only takes 2 to tango.
