market

This site is amazing. It gives you the big picture of the market each day and lets you know all the news and the sectors that are going up and down. I really don't look at financial news too much but this site reports the information in such a simple and exciting new way I quickly started to check the site daily to see what had gone up and down, check it out and let me know what you think.

I'd also like to add a favorite of lawyers the world over used to find other good lawyers. I'm giving Jabba the credit for this one.

protect

I would just like to relate the latest protections that I have uncovered in my quest to have a clean computer. I switched my firewall from zone alarm to sygate, which is far superior and gives me alot more protection. If you need evidence I got about 7 viruses after I got zone alarm. I also found that it is necessary to disable windows firewall in order for sygate to operate more efficiently and the computer as well. AVG conceptually is a good free anti-virus deal except the free version only updates once a month, thus making it essentially useless. So I now use Mcafee which I got from a friend and somehow its free. If you really want to know how I can email you. Also spybot and adware are good but you have to manually update them and scan at least once a week. But what this really signifies is a weak action firewall. Meaning you're cleaning up what the firewall allowed into your computer. So my advice, get the better firewall, sygate, and a free anti-virus that automatically updates every day. One that updates each month is worthless. Before I got Mcafee I had bit defender which automatically updates, which is at least better than avg.

controversy

If you look closely at the previous post it becomes clear that I did not creat this image. Can anyone tell me what gives it away? If not I'll let everyone know in a day or two. Happy sluething!!!

An interesting artistic expression.

Top 10 Most Politically Conservative Colleges
5. Brigham Young University (UT)
One can't separate Brigham Young University and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the school's sponsoring faith. From the student body to the "stringent" honor code (which regulates not only academic behavior but also dress, hair length, diet, and sexual activity) to the heavy religious studies requirement, BYU serves the needs of America's Mormon community first and foremost. Those few non-Mormons we heard from in our survey suggest that outsiders considering the school strongly consider their ability to live within Mormonism's strict requirements. "Life at BYU is a lot different than a typical university life," explains a typical undergrad. "Students here do not participate in activities that are in contrast with our religious beliefs." Some, however, warn that "the nonconformist will find a dull social life with difficulty finding someone [who] will be their friend, regardless of who they are or what they believe."
I am definately not a conformist.
Weird.
Very weird.

randoms conversions

having been converted to constantly searching the internet for using information, I ran across the following useful website

This website helps you scan all the processes in listed in the task manager to see if they are considered harmful. My conversion to nerdonism should be given credit to jabba, heres the address to his site

One of my more recent pics as a nude model. The hair continues to grow….excellent progress I would say. Edited of course for viewers of all ages.
 

I don't know about you but this looks like plagerism. Should I contact my lawyer? 

Though I looked stoned, I'm really not. I don't know if you can tell but I have wings. Sometimes when I run I start to lift off. I didn't think it would come to this, but I am beginning to consider cutting my hair. I'm wondering what the public has to say concerning the matter. Anyone willing to buy my lovely locks? Should I cut it? 

telemarketing

despite not being able to last more than a week on my most recent job, it did however inspire me to create my own business. I will pay 12 and 13 year olds to sell car washes and oil changes over the phone from campus (so I dont have to use or pay for a landline). They will be paid on pure commission so I only pay them as I make money. I think I really have an idea which hasn't even been tapped in Provo. All money will be used for the 12 and 13 year old upcoming scout camp adventure. We are 100% non-profit.

Today I killed my pea plant. We've been together for about a month and a half. Filled with many ups and downs the time was right to finally put it down. In retrospect I'm sure there were some things I could have down better. Give it more light, better water and most of all more tender loving care. If I only would have known that the pod would become so heavy it would bend the plant in half. Alas my plant is dead and I am left alone to tell the sad tale of Project Pea Plant. I hope I get an A. 

Video from Zion Nat'l Park

Zion Video.

Ken is still a little stunned by the elegant views provided by the world reknowned National Park we like to call Zion. We have gathered as commanded in the scriptures. Will you be numbered among the righteous? 

After traversing the trail called Weeping Rock and ascending more than 2000 feet I couldn't help but stop and take this breathtaking photo. 

So this is all who went. Real attractive group. I'm the guy that looks like the tourist on the left.

Thats the bellagio fountains in the background. I didn't gamble, but I did bring back some chips. 

Budd

Buddhism that is. I'm converted. I don't know if this requires baptism or what but I'm a self proclaimed Buddhist-Mormon. Kinda like how Marvin Goldstein is a Jewish-Mormon. I see no contradiction and I think it's a perfect fit, and it also comes at a great time in my life. I'm making big life decisions right now and I think this will help me focus my thoughts and energy towards something more positive. If I know anything at all it is that I'm at where I'm at and I deserve to be where I am, at least that's what Buddhism tells me. I wonder where I'll end up in the next life or what I'll end up being. Maybe a bird or maybe I'll just be a rock, keen to observe all around me and tell little jokes to the peebles chillin' nearby. Anyway it's all about karma. My conversion story? I read the 4 noble truths, which are: 1 - Life is suffering 2 - Suffering arises from desire 3 - The solution to suffering lies in curbing desire 4 - Desire can be curbed if a person follows the eight fold path. My conversion was both logical and spiritual. The eight fold path is where Buddhism gets a little too much too soon. Join me and we can be little Buddhist friends. Plus we could probably take over the world. Who's in?
