Some articles worth reading
First off, the silly one. A trucked was fined for smoking in his own truck. Why? Because it is considered his "workplace" and in Ontario, Canada, smoking at your workplace is illegal.

Extra, Extra! Read all about it! Barrack Obama wins Nobel Peace Prize! Why he won it I don't know, but anyway the article can be found here:

What is Your Dream Job ?
My dream job is to be the top lawyer of a prestigious law firm. The money would be good, yes; but I would still be a lawyer if I made only enough money to live on. I literally dream of being a lawyer time to time. Of standing in front of the court and proving my case, of putting a judge in his or her place. I even had a dream once that I got a mobster’s charges of murder dropped because the arresting office forgot to read him his rights, and after we left the courtroom someone came up to me and handed me a suitcase. I'm not sure what happened next, because I woke up!
Whatever your dream job happens to be, your dream job is your dream job – don’t ever let anyone tell you that you’ll never be “that guy”. Work hard and preserve and you will succeed. The minute you let someone tell you different, and you actually listen, then they are right. In fact, why not tell the world what your dream job is? I challenge you all to blog about your dream job.
So, What is your dream job?

Slavery In today's Society
Okay, so we all know that "African Americans" (form now on i will say blacks) were enslaved because of their skin color hundreds of years ago. This is the basis of my post today, hundreds of years ago. I will get back to that, moving along. So they were enslaved to do jobs for the richer white population, like be maids, butlers, farm workers etc. They were bought and sold by traders and lots of money was made during the slave trade.
But the point of my post today is quite simple - remember how I said, hundreds of years ago? Sure you do. Well, it was hundreds of years ago, why should we bitch about it now? WE ALL know & accept the fact that slavery was wrong, and that's why the majority of countries have outlawed it. But come on people, the last legal slave in America was when? Around the civil war I believe? The civil war ended in 1860's or so, and that's about 150 years ago. No one alive today could have ever had a slave (legally, anyway).
So okay, our (by our, I mean whites) ancestors enslaved people 150 years ago. Well, we can't do anything about that today can we? No. Now here comes the biggest point of my post. Grow up! You heard me. Slavery was 150 years ago, forget about it.
Let me give a comparison. An ancestor of yours killed someone 150 years ago, and that ancestor is long dead. The police come and harass/bother/even perhaps charge you with this crime. Now, anyone with an IQ of 71 can see the similarity. Point being, you can't charge other members of the family because of something that someone did 150 years ago, for all intents and purposes, you might not even know them. NO ONE is responsible for another's action.
Something else I'd like to say before finishing off. Black history month? Black parade? Black this black that. Bullshit. Does the black population deserve a history month? Sure, but how about white history month? Or Hispanic, or Asian? I explained why slavery shouldn't be a factor, so I don't need to explain again. As well, any kind of "donations" or "charities" are in the same league. Scams, that's it. Trying to abuse the fact that your ancestors were enslave so you turn a quick buck? Give me a break.
Thank you for reading & feel free to post and comment, but anything like "OMG!@!@ YOU RACIST FUCK!" Will be mocked by terms of an edit. I am not a racist, I just have what they call "common sense".

Use Wikipedia!
When in school, and told to “cite sources”, students are often told or even rhetorically asked, “what site will you not use?”. The answer, of course, being Wikipedia. Is Wikipedia wrong? Sometimes. But no more than another site.
‘Anyone can post anything on the internet’. A saying most of us have heard several times. This rule is true, and there’s no reason to argue with it. Ask yourself if you think it is true. Now that you’ve agreed with it, put it into perspective.
How is Wikipedia any different than other sites? Wikipedia.org, informationcenter.net. The second site is hypothetical, but will serve a purpose. Why is Wikipedia any less accurate than informationcenter.net? Anyone can post on either of these. Wikipedia is owned by a larger company, the Wikimedia Foundation, which has 27 staff according to their official site. How many do those other sites have? Likely 2-3 (1 admin and 1-2 writers).
Is Wikipedia the only source? No, and in fact there should never only be one source for something. This goes back to the point: ‘Anyone can post anything on the internet’. Just as you would check other sources, you should also be cross-checking (not with a hockey stick, but with research) Wikipedia with other sites. For recent events, search news sites. For sports, search on sports sites. To get better results, use sites that are catered to what the research needs to be done on.
So there you have it, why Wikipedia shouldn’t be hated by anyone, unless they also dislike other sites. Wikipedia is just another site in the grand scheme, so there’s no reason to trash talk it like so many people do. No Wikipedia? Before you know it, Google won’t be allowed.

The world's biggest proxy server!
Q: World’s biggest proxy server?
A: Google. It routes your search though probably 10 servers to get the most reliable results. It’s really that simple. If a DOS of Google was possible, would you get caught? Very unlikely. This is a bug in Google that can’t be fixed because of how Google works. All of these good results come from this proxy setup. Don’t’ DOS Google unless you want to get flamed and then shot. No hacker would respect you DDOSing the best thing on the net.

How to trace ip's though MSN
Ok, ok – hold up. What’s an ip? A script kiddie? I'll answer that before I continue. An ip address a unique number that each computer gets and is used for tracing activity (use Google to find more). A script kiddie is someone that claims to be a hacker but in reality just uses other programs written by real hackers (average age: 12-15). This was the age of the famous “SK” that took down all those sites in 2000 (yahoo, CNN, use Google to find more info).
Back on topic, msn acts like a proxy (don’t know what this is? Look on the right for a post about unblocking websites to find out). It sends information to msn, and THEN to the person you’re talking to. If you try to trace, you will get MSN’s ip, which is useless. In order to get the ip, you’ll need to send them a file. Pictures are the best.
Now you need to know how to read ip’s. If you can’t, you use Google I don’t have time to teach you. Anyway, before you send the file, open cmd. (start-run-cmd). Type in netstat –n. Copy this to notepad or something. Now, send the file. When they accept the transfer, do this command again but now there should be one new one. This is their IP. Done.
Good job, you now have some information. An ip address is fairly useless by its own; however you can scare people that don’t know much about computers. You can probably get the ISP by typing in tracert ip.here.xx.xx. Thanks for reading!

2009 NBA all star skills competition
First off, the shooting stars. Well, congratulations to Detroit for winning. I was rather surprised that phoenix got 5 in a row and then took a minute to score, allowing Detroit to win. I enjoyed watching this; however it’s hard to critique so I'll move on to the next event.
So, here we are at the point guard one. Passing, shooting, dribbling, things a guard would do. This went pretty smooth, not to much to say here either. One thing I didn’t like was how to ball boy got in the way and in my opinion cost that player (forgot name) one second and possibly the title as this one second would have made a difference. Other than that, no problems with this event. Oh, yeah, derrick rose won =p
The 3 point shooting. The scores this year were slightly better on average than last year (in the first round); Steve Nash only got 9 when he did this event in 2008. D. Cook, R. Lewis and J. Kapono made it to the final round, with Kapono scoring 14, Lewis scoring 15 and Cook scoring 15. The second round was close in the end, which made it exciting for about 5-10 seconds. Otherwise, this year sucked. Last year was way better, which scores in the 20s (J. Kapono). In the tiebreaker, only 7 points were scored by Lewis. Fail. Cook did much better with a score in the high teens. Good job Cook.
Next, the “Sprite Slam Dunk” contest. There I just got some extra exposure for you, you should thank me. Dwight Howard didn’t dunk last year. Ok, yes, hand above the rim yada yada yada. Not a dunk in my books. So, my thoughts on this years’ dunks:
Round 1
1. Fernandez: Double bounce, good timing. 45 points.
2. Smith: Not exciting to me, 40 points.
3. Nate Robinson: Not bad, however nothing to good. 42 points.
4. Dwight Howard: Fail. But anyway, he made two bounces, and then on the third he missed! Dunk wasn’t to bad though, I give him 44 points. The judges gave him 50. FAIL! I was online on that Facebook app and most people gave between 42-45.
Round 2
5. Fernandez: Stolen idea from DW last year, couldn’t do it within two minutes anyway. When he eventually got it right though, 47 points.
6. Smith: Another difficult one, however I liked this one (When it eventually went in). 46 points.
7. Nate Robinson: Not bad, creative. 44 points.
8: Dwight Howard: One thing he has is creativity (except the cape, that’s a repeat). A higher net, 12 feet. Not that good of a dunk, just has height. 48 points (40. but + because I’ve never seen anyone jump that high)
Final round:
1. Robinson: Liked it, especially the dancing and the kryptonite was a nice added touch. 49 points.
2. Howard: Uh.. Not that great. Ok, but not great. 45 points.
3. Robinson: Nice. I liked the jumping over Howard, but there wasn’t much else. 44 points.
4. Howard: No good, just a long jump. 45 points again
I’d like to compliment the sportsmanship. Excellent job. My winner would be Robinson, however Dwight didn’t do that bad either. Good effort (I bet you though I hated the man. I don’t, I just hated that not-dunk last year, and the favoritism early on.) Robinson won by a VERY small margin. Dwight Howard did a very good thing letting him jump over for his second dunk.
Thanks for reading this, hope you enjoyed. Feel free (and please do) comment.

How to delete your files forever
First off, this article is for windows users who want to delete their files. Most people are windows users, and if you are a windows user, there’s a good chance that you’re viewing on internet explorer or Firefox. Ok enough with the statistics; let’s move on to the actual article.
When you delete a file, it goes to the recycle bin. When you delete it from there, what happens? Well, in truth, nothing really. The space it used up now becomes “unallocated”, meaning that it is used but if the computer needs it will overwrite this data if it runs out of disk space. This unallocated space will appear as free space if you go into my computer and check the free space/used space pie chart. Ok, now that we know what actually happens when a file is deleted, let’s move on.
So how do we delete files forever? The first way is simple: smash the hard disk. If you are done with that drive, then do this. But don’t smash the whole computer. If it’s a desktop, then you’ll want to remove the hard disk. To do this, turn off the power and open it up. Now, look for a piece of hardware that looks like this:

Now, disconnect the cables and pull it out. There, done. Do what you can to this, drill holes, smash it, and bury the pieces in the ground in different locations. Put it in a fire for about 2 hours; take out the melted metal and rapid-cool it by putting it in cold water and then hammer this out. Seems like a lot to do, but you wouldn’t (or at least, shouldn’t) put personal data in the regular garbage. A new one of these is less than $100, just a side-note.
The next way to delete your files forever is to use a re-writer, like the one by Microsoft, found here. (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897443.aspx). This program is command-line based and has the small size of just under 50kb, meaning it’ll take 2 seconds to download on any connection. Another program you can use is called fileshredder, a Google search will turn up a download location for it. Both programs will delete your files forever.
Those are two ways to remove files from your computer. There are a few more, but these two will be good for any windows user. One more thing that I must point out: If you are a criminal reading this, and looking for how to delete incriminating evidence, that is a felony in the USA/Canada/UK, not sure about other countries. Just wouldn’t be fair If I didn’t mention that.
Thanks for reading, have fun deleting those files now!

How to defeat blocks on websites
A proxy is a website that allows you to get around filtering. What it does, in layman’s terms, is go and get information from a site and pass it to the end user (you). Your school network will show up as you being on the proxy’s URL, when in fact you are on another site altogether. The only way they can tell exactly what site you are on is to be watching your computer (if they have the ability to, which if they don’t you need a new tech team) or physical being there. That sums up what a proxy is and how it works.
It is very easy to get a proxy site. What is hard is keeping up with the blocking power of your school. The easiest way to do this is to go for new proxies, and only use the same one for a week tops. I suggest you change the site your using every 2 days (that clock starts the first time you use it).
There is a site online where you can get new proxies all the time, at a rate of about 25 per day, and I promise that 95% of those will work the day they come out (going down by about 10% per day).
The site is www.proxy.org. In order to view the new proxies you need to have an account, which is free. Just sign up and then you’ll have access to the page forever. Copy the 50 newest sites, print it out and take it to school with you. The ‘best proxies’ are blocked, I guarantee, so you will need the new ones. You’ll also find most of them end in with .info. Why? It’s a cheaper domain than .com.

School uniforms - the continual fight
Against School Uniforms - The Continual Fight
Violates human rights – Tinker v. Des Moines Independent School – court ruled in 1969 that a student’s freedom of expression must be protected unless it would seriously interfere with the requirements of appropriate discipline.
Notre Dame published a study on grade 10 students and found that uniforms have no direct effect on “substance abuse, behavioral problems or attendance”. Also, a negative effect was found on students considered “pro-school”.
Uniforms cost more in the long run – Because now you need to buy all the pieces of the school outfit (At least 2 sets,1 isn’t going to do), and street clothes. Another point – Once you leave school your uniform has no point. Street clothes however, can still be worn. Again, it’s cheaper in the long run to not buy uniforms.
Under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, “…Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression". This is the world-wide law, although not upheld in some countries, In Canada it is accepted & upheld.
“Freedom of speech” was found in the Magna Carta, a charter signed by King John of England (the infamous “prince john” of the Robin Hood era) to ensure that people under him where treated fairly. Similar to freedom of expression.

Facts about facebook!
DISCLAIMER: This is based on what people signed up as, and
therefore has a margin of error. I cannot guarantee exact
numbers.
Did you know that...
About 1 in 3 people living in Canada have a Facebook account,
compared to 1 in 10 of those who live in the USA.
An addition to the above: There are about 9m Canadian facebook accounts, and about 35m American ones.
There are a little over 500k men from South Africa, with almost 600k women.
There are 13.8m accounts registered in the UK, of which 44% are listed as men.
In Spain, 1.6m users are listed as over 18, and 16% of those are 'single'.
China has only 275k people (this is probably because of the blocking of free speech)
Less than 0.01% of people living in china have a Facebook account.
2.2m accounts in the US are owned by males in high school (which is about .75% of the us population).
Germany has about 1.1m facebook accounts, of which 475k are males, and 575k are female.
General facts:
Most facebook users are over 18 (apx. 2 in 3), however a lot of people lied about their age when they signed up, so this is probably a false statistic.
The US has about 30% of all accounts, the UK has about 18%, and Canada 14%. This accounts for more than half of all users.
More people on facebook are female than male (47-48/52-53 split is my estimate)
A small percentage of users don't have a gender listed (less than 5%)

3 Simple pranks that anyone can do
I decided to make a quick post about pranks and 3 easy & quick ones you can do. Also, if you actually do any of these and get in trouble, that's your problem not mine. I didn't force you to prank or even read this article.
1) Grab a bunch of condiment packets (ketchup/mustard/etc) and place them into people's shoes. You can alternatively tape them to the bottom of the shoes.
2) Make a bunch of signs that read "out of order". You'd be surprised and how much someone would be fooled by a sign. Another sign you can make is "use other door". Place them on every exit and watch people running around trying to find an available door (be one of those people, or at least pretend to avoid getting caught)
3) Sign someone up for as many thing you can - E-mail newsletters, real newsletters. Junk Mail wars are always fun. If you can get an army recruiter on someone's case they'll just hate you.
Something you can do if you really want to:
If you can afford the advertising fees, advertise a job at your school/workplace that doesn't actually exist. Be sure to include the fax number of your school with which to send resumes. Pay cash for the ad and try to include as little as possible when they ask for your information.
Hope you enjoyed reading, and remember that this is for humor purposes only and not to be actually carried out.
