NFL To Steam Games on The Internets

Thats right folks, the NFL will be streaming all their games online with DirectTV's Supercast. However, thats where the good news stops. This is the NFL, they usually do things right but they've dropped the ball here and it may take a couple of seasons before they wake up and fix it but here are the problems:

  • It is only available to people who subscribe to NFL Sunday Ticket ($269)
  • Costs $99 extra on top of the Sunday Ticket fee
  • Only works on Windows machines
  • Only works with Internet Explorer
  • Canada is left out in the cold (Outside North America, online streaming was available for $25/week last year).
Boo-urns NFL - boo-urns.

Fichey.com review

In case you have not heard, there is a very neat site that allows you to view various social bookmarking sites (such as del.icio.us, digg, downfly, reddit and stumbleupon) from a different prespective - Fichey!

It takes a preview from the page that is on these various social bookmarking sites and you are able to flick through and view the page in a picture - you can then grab the picture to scroll down the page or double click on it to actually visit it!

It is very neat and I recommend that you check it out! Let me know what you think of it!

Media: Wal-Mart paying Mexican teenagers $0 per hour

Here are some of the articles that are dragging Wal-Mart through the mud:

MSNBC: Unpaid Teens Bag Groceries for Wal-Mart
Bloggingstocks: Wal-Mart helps its bottom line in Mxico with unpaid teen labor

The issue is being over-dramatized - Wal-Mart is not paying teenagers that work at their stores in Mexico. However, these people are ignorant about the issue and are trying to equate this to some sweat shop producing cheap goods. In Mexico it is the culture that young people do not work for salary and rely on tips as they bag the groceries.

What do you think about this issue?

The Secret to Life - Solved by Mathematics

Mathematics

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:

What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?
Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?
We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over
100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these
questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R- K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that, while Hard Work
and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's
the Bullshit and Ass kissing that will put you over the top.
