Need a Faster Way to that Heart Attack? "The Bacone"

"The Bacone is exactly what you’d think; a cone made from bacon. Inside though, they put scrambled eggs, top that with country gravy and then top that with a biscuit. Um. Yum?!

I told myself I would only take one bite of the Bacone. Then just one more. And well, its good; so one more can’t hurt. I stopped at four bites. I offered my Bacone (with a big ole chunk out of the side) and to my surprise several people in the audience wanted to take it from me. Hilarious.

I’ll say what I said then that I believe now; “McDonald’s should be selling this thing.”"

The Pirate Bay found Guilty...Watch Out Google!

So the defendants from The Pirate Bay were found guilty in Sweden. Does it change anything? Forbes seems to think Goggle will be a good replacement.

"Why Google Is The New Pirate Bay
If the Swedish site shuts down, search engines could become the new starting points for digital pirates.

This week has offered a hard lesson for pirates, both water- and Web-based: Keep a low profile and your illicit business can flourish. But draw too much attention, and you're likely to get sniped.

On Friday, the trial of the Pirate Bay, the Web's highest-profile source of TV shows, movies and music, came to an end when a Swedish court found the administrators of the site guilty of copyright infringement, sentencing them to a year in prison and more than $3 million in fines.

The verdict comes as a surprise to many who assumed the site, which indexes the "tracker" files that allow users to share video and music, was beyond prosecution in its home country of Sweden. And though the sites' owners say they plan to appeal the decision, it may nonetheless lead to the takedown of the Web's most popular index of peer-to-peer downloads.

But even if the Pirate Bay sinks, putting an end to file-sharing isn't so simple. Waiting in the wings to absorb the site's audience are dozens of second-string bittorrent tracker and index sites that have avoided the Pirate Bay's level of notoriety, including Mininova, isoHunt and Demonoid. And according to Ben Edelman, a professor at Harvard's Business School focused on Internet regulation, that longer-tail assortment of piracy outlets means the starting point for finding pirated content has shifted to an even more resilient source: Google"

Shadow Banking


Shadow banking from Marketplace on Vimeo."The shadow banking system is a key component of the U.S. economy, but the financial crisis has frozen it solid. Senior Editor Paddy Hirsch explains what shadow banking is and why it's important enough to warrant its own bailout, called the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, or TALF."

Election Rewind: Ron Howard's Call to Action

 

Dunno how I missed this before the election, but I saw Ron Howard on Real Time with Bill Maher this weekend and they showed this. You can watch the whole interview here (until HBO takes it down).
