Tiger Woods Nike Commercial, Bootyism & Golf Tournament in 3-D!

Tiger Woods Nike commercial may have voice overs from the grave to give it that extra creepiness, but what do you think? We want to know! Visit Tiger Woods’ Nike Commercial, How Does it Make You Feel?

The commercial is found on YouTube rather than the Nike web site or Tiger Woods’ web site. Check it out, it’s that unusual.

Tiger Woods also did well at his first tee. The only problem was the plane that flew by with a banner. The banner read “Tiger: Did you mean bootyism?”

A quick fly by joke in combo to Tiger’s Buddhist beliefs and his past booty calls. But Tiger did what he came to do, play golf.

If you wish to watch the Masters Golf Tournament 2010 you can do that in 3-D. The balls may not be flying at you but the flowers will.

Controversial Anti-Abortion Ad Coming to Super Bowl XLIV, What do you think?

Super Bowl XLIV will be showering Miami with Indianapolis Colts and New Orleans Saints fans as the festivities will display quite a day on February 7, 2010. Free Wi-Fi will be available compliments of Cary’s Signal Share so that fans can enjoy this football game to it’s fullest extent while passing along information to others outside of the stadium.

But what could turn a fun filled event into a serious topic of conversation? Try the anti-abortion commercial.

Football star Tim Tebow’s mother decided to give birth instead of having an abortion as suggested before Tim was born. The Tebow family is telling the world their story during this year’s Super Bowl via commercial.

Commercial? Many await each year for the best of Super Bowl commercials where the participants fork out thousands of dollars just to produce a commercial to earn a spot to be seen. That’s one true competition that will not be able to give this Tebow commercial an abortion.

Tebow is not the person behind this commercial, he’s just the star of that short viewed showing.

It does not excuse the fact that people go to the Super Bowl to route for their team, not to route for deep issues.

If this commercial airs, in which it has been confirmed it will, here’s what we are looking at in the future of commercials during Super Bowl games all thanks to freedom of speech.

“Drugs can kill, but medical marijuana helped me cope with my anxiety. Before I forget to mention, drugs can kill, but medical marijuana helped me cope with anxiety. Life is much better now. I am here, wait, oh yeah, drugs can kill, but medical marijuana helped me cope with my anxiety…”

“I was into porn, really bad. But then I got into politics. Vote for me.”

Where did these commercials come from? Freedom of speech. Due to freedom of speech this Tebow anti-abortion commercial will air. Considering the fact that I am all for freedom of speech, why during the biggest game of the year?

Many can cheer Tim Tebow’s mom on for her decision. But let’s face it, children should be given the chance just as much as fans deserve when watching the Super Bowl.

Thank you to the Tebow family for exploiting their situation on a time when a funny Dorito ad could have been viewed instead.

You think they could have scheduled their beliefs on another date or time?

Three Mile Island Unit 2 Generator Moving To N.C.

Three Mile Island is best known for the Three Mile Island accident of 1979, just 4 months after Three Mile Island Unit 2 went commercial. As many know the Three Mile Island has offered fear in the late 1970′s as it released radioactivity into the air.

But what’s this? The actual Three Mile Island generator from Unit 2 is moving to North Carolina? It never fails, everything is moving from the north to the south.

What happened in 1978 and 1979?

What is TMI-2?

Will it pose problems for Wake County’s Shearon Harris Nuclear Plant?

In late 1978 the Three Mile Island Nuclear Plant was opened for business. Not long after in 1979 Three Mile Island suffered a partial meltdown releasing radioactivity into the environment. To many that are not nuclear savvy it spelled big troubles for those in surrounding areas and within the range of the Three Mile Island accident.

Some claim that the Three Mile Island accident couldn’t have caused any health risks or issues, but that’s not what Dr. Steven Wing from UNC states in a 1997 report.

View information surrounding Dr. Steven Wing’s report here.

Three Mile Island (TMI) had 2 units, 1 & 2. The 670 ton generator that is being shipped to N.C. following an upgrade process. The TMI-2 electric generator must be restored and inspected before the big move.

Earthquake News & Updates: Jan. 18, 2010

Just 6 days after Haiti’s 7.0 earthquake hit the shimmers and shakes are settling down and headed towards other locations across the globe.

Such as the life of an earthquake. Just as it travels from one area to another the center focus has always been beneath the cracks. The very reason the crack emerged to begin with.

Today 55 miles WSW of Santa Ana, El Salvador an earthquake rumbled at the magnitude of 5.8. It was just ten more miles away SSE of GUATEMALA CITY, Guatemala. During the day came an earthquake 25 miles NNW of Tocopilla, Chile that measured at 5.0.

The Guatemala earthquake only reached 5.8 not 6.0 as other news agencies suggest.

Solomon Islands are experiencing earthquake activity as well toggling between 5.0 and 5.3 in magnitude as the day closes.

All by which do not compare to Haiti’s 7.0.

Mark those globes!

A true tool of a simple stand up globe can become handy as to reaching patterns in result.

You may not have the instruments that the USGS does at their disposal, but you can use your intelligence to predict. Whether you are right or wrong, it’s always good to explore the possibilities. For a young earthquake buff learning of an earthquake must come from basic knowledge.

There is no better place to begin than a stand up globe.

California 2010 Earthquakes, Braxton Contractions

Following Haiti’s 7.0 earthquake many have kept up with the earthquake listing in hopes that nothing like this happens again without warning.

Many that know me understand my deep need for connecting earthquake dots. But when everyone looks for anything over a 5.0, I notice something different of California.

Earthquake Contractions of 2010?

Prior to a mother giving birth, she experiences contractions as sometimes they are false alarms. Today I note California’s Braxton contractions.

California Earthquakes on January 15, 2010

2.5 magnitude, time 23:25:45 UTC, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
2.8 magnitude, time 23:19:53 UTC, GREATER LA AREA, CALIFORNIA
2.9 magnitude, time 14:20:50 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
3.4 magnitude, time 13:39:31 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
3.6 magnitude, time 10:29:59 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
3.5 magnitude, time 09:28:19 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
3.0 magnitude, time 09:25:13 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.5 magnitude, time 08:44:38 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.9 magnitude, time 08:43:41 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.6 magnitude, time 08:43:10 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.5 magnitude, time 08:25:23 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.5 magnitude, time 08:24:16 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
4.4 magnitude, time 08:23:27 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
2.6 magnitude, time 07:03:25 UTC, OFFSHORE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
2.5 magnitude, time 04:52:33 UTC, CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
3.5 magnitude, time 02:13:52 UTC, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
3.4 magnitude, time 02:12:57 UTC, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
3.1 magnitude, time 02:01:34 UTC, SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

Baja California, Mexico

2.8 magnitude, time 19:46:20 UTC, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
2.9 magnitude, time 14:17:43 UTC, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO
3.1 magnitude, time 13:42:18 UTC, BAJA CALIFORNIA, MEXICO

Puerto Rico has also had some “hits” today, but nothing larger than a 3.4 magnitude.

The largest “hit” today was a 5.6 in Sucre Venezuela.

Mapping Earthquakes Out:

- Venezuela is south, southeast of Haiti.
- Puerto Rico is the island located east of Dominican Republic. Haiti is located on the west side to Dominican Republic.
- Baja California, Mexico is south, southeast of California.

Even though this information does not conclude that an earthquake will strike at the magnitude of 7.0 as it has in Haiti. It’s always good to be aware of where earthquakes may travel to.

The Venezuela earthquake did not result in any injuries or damages.

Alaska usually receives daily earthquakes. Today they only received one. Yesterday they received three. Two days ago they received five. Three days ago they received sixteen. Four days ago they received seven. Five days ago they received five.

Three days ago Haiti was struck by that 7.0.

On January 10, 2010 California had over twenty earthquakes including an offshore 6.5.

And on January 9, 2010 Solomon Islands were the highlight of the day with a 6.0 followed by multiple aftershocks. Philippines also lands on the list of earthquakes as it remains located within the sector.

Connecting the dots is not an easy task. Without a stand-up globe it’s nearly impossible, but can be done with a full stretch map. All in all, it’s been a quiet day for the world as we still try to assist in Haiti’s 7.0 aftermath without having to worry about anything over a 5.6. Or at least for today.

Have a good night and a better tomorrow.

Aniaka San Luis, “Mother Don’t Let Me Die…”

An 11-year-old that had been stuck under a fallen house for two days following Haiti’s 7.0 earthquake has been watched by the world through CNN.

Her dusted braids, her glasses covered fragile eyes as the screams of others cluttered the background noise in panic that the little girl would not be released. Family and friends dug her out, one hand at a time. The world around them had become victim to catastrophic damage and death.

Dead Haitian bodies lay in packs, as some of the bodies may come from other lands, while the other lifeless bodies were carted away in dump trucks and packed into ditches, coffins, and other areas where they could fit. The 7.0 earthquake had taken it’s toll on Haiti, especially in Port-au-Prince.

The little girl with the bright eyes and confused appeal looked around silently as the stones were removed slowly from above her. She was free, she was free!

The family jumped for joy as happiness soon followed, but sadness crumbled the dreams of the little girl’s future. The 11-year-old Haitian girl died shortly after being freed from the rubble.

Her last words?

“Mother don’t let me die…”.
