Mike Merrill decided to sell himself on the open market. He divided
himself into 100,000 shares and set an initial public offering price of
$1 a share. Then he let his new stockholders determine what he should do
with his life.
The man who sold his fate for one $1 dollar a share.
"A California man who believes the literal interpretation of the Bible is real is offering $10,000 to anyone who can successfully debunk claims made in the book of Genesis
in front of a judge. Joseph Mastropaolo, the man behind this challenge,
is to put $10,000 of his own money into an escrow account. His debate
opponent would be asked to do the same. They would then jointly agree on
a judge based on a list of possible candidates. Mastropaolo said that
any evidence presented in the trial must be 'scientific, objective,
valid, reliable and calibrated.' For his part, Mastropaolo has a Ph.D.
in kinesiology and writes for the Creation Hall of Fame website, which
is helping to organize the minitrial. It's also not the first such trial
he's tried to arrange. A previous effort, known as the 'Life Science
Prize,' proposed a similar scenario. Mastropaolo includes a list of
possible circuit court judges to oversee the trial and a list of those
he challenged to take part on the evolutionary side of the debate."
Today the NSA declassified about a quarter-century’s worth of back
issues of its super-secret, in-house technical journal, written by and
for agency employees.
NSA sort of declassifies its super secret magazine.
A great idea expands.
"Amazon has been placing lockers in brick-and-mortar retail stores, such as 7-Eleven, for pickup of online purchases. Walmart plans to pilot a similar program,
presumably making it easier to pick up online purchases at Wal-Mart.
'Wal-Mart hopes its network of physical stores, which number about 4,000
in the United States, will give it an edge as consumers increasingly
use smart phones while they shop. Wal-Mart has been testing the shipping of online orders from a small number of its physical stores
for about two years. In 2013, the company plans to expand this program
from about 25 stores currently to a total of roughly 50 stores. ...
Two-thirds of the U.S. population live within five miles of a Wal-Mart
store."
Vote for this most excellent "One take high school mash up"
Read the description for details. They nailed it!
So apparently
the Germans converted a gigantic Soviet hangar into a fake tropical
island, complete with a beach, rainforest, restaurants and resorts.
"Hmm, this looks like a bomb. I wonder if it's real? Let me just press this red button and see..."
You might've read some headlines today—in very reputable publications—saying
that there's an online attack underway. The biggest in history. Enough
to slow down the internet. This would be exciting and scary, except it's just not true.
This is my family bible
