Some Advice For Kids

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

To anyone with kids of any age, here’s some advice Bill Gates gave in a speech at a High School about 11 things they did not and will not learn in school. He talks about how feel-good, politically correct teachings created a generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept set them up for failure in the real world.

Rule 1: Life is not fair – get used to it!

Rule 2: The world won’t care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something BEFORE you feel good about yourself.

Rule 3: You will NOT make $60,000 a year right out of high school. You won’t be a vice-president with a car phone until you earn both.

Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait till you get a boss.

Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your Grandparents had a different word for burger flipping – they called it opportunity.

Rule 6: If you mess up, it’s not your parents’ fault, so don’t whine about your mistakes, learn from them.

Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren’t as boring as they are now. They got that way from paying your bills, cleaning your clothes and listening to you talk about how cool you thought you were. So before you save the rain forest from the parasites of your parent’s generation, try delousing the closet in your own room.

Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life HAS NOT. In some schools they have abolished failing grades and they’ll give you as MANY TIMES as you want to get the right answer. This doesn’t bear the slightest resemblance to ANYTHING in real life.

Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don’t get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you FIND YOURSELF. Do that on your own time.

Rule 10: Television is NOT real life. In real life people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go to jobs.

Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.

What A Store Manager Learned The Hard Way

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

What is the one thing that criminal is looking for? Opportunity. They don’t want to get tangled up in a messy show of their ignorance so they look for the easy targets.

Taser M26CA store manager in Chantilly, VA was that easy target in the very nature of business alone: check cashing, lottery, money order and wire services. Money is motivation for a robbery and that’s just what three men took advantage of.

The mastermind behind the crime convinced his online girlfriend to purchase a Taser with her credit card and have it shipped to her address. She in turn shipped it to this brilliant man who thought it couldn’t be traced that way, ha!

So the three stooges plan to knock off the Prime Mart and make off with as much cash as they could carry. The mastermind stayed back, but in contact with dumb and dumber by telephone. They run into the store, tie up the store manager who was alone and demand money. When the manager hesitated he got a nice wake-up call from 50,000 volts of electricity emitted by the Advanced Taser M18, now know as the M26. He was shocked 2 more times until he gave up over $30,000.

Now, before dumb and dumber stunned the manager they had to call their mastermind and ask how to use the Taser…ha. Don’t you know if I were running an establishment moving that kind of money, I would already have my Taser out and unleashed on both of these clowns.

I’ll say it now and I’ll say it again…get yourself prepared. Don’t get caught in a situation that could have been prevented or at least handled in a matter of 30 seconds if you just would have been prepared.

Whether you own a business or not, you need to be protected. You can check out Taser selection and other self defense products at our web site www.tbotech.com

Computer Monitoring Software

Saturday, April 17th, 2010

Even though the Internet has been around for a while, a lot of people aren’t fully aware of the potential dangers and the type of information that’s just a mouse click away. And that’s the frightening part…a lot of parents don’t even know what they don’t know.

Computer Montioring SoftwareChildren and teenagers are allowed access to computers and the Internet and often know more about their way around cyber space than their parents or guardian. Parents often think this virtual world is harmless because it’s not really-real. That is absolutely not true. It’s a very real environment, used by all types of people who can pretend to be anyone they want to be.

Social networking site are places online where people can meet and network with other people. There all types of web sites from business to dating to recreational sites, etc. Users of these have their own profiles where they can connect and interact with other users. They are wonderful for keeping in contact with old friends or distant family but there are also dangers because you are now exposed to complete strangers.

Below are safety tips for making your family’s social networking life safer:

- Understand how different web sites work before deciding to create a profile. Some sites only allow your selected friends to interact, others allow everyone and some sites have options to switch between public (everyone), private (only friend you select) and semi-private (friends of friends you select).
- Never post too much information about yourself especially confidential information like your Social Security Number, address, phone number, etc. And be cautious about posting information that could help people locate you such as your school, club, job, etc.
- Make sure your screen name isn’t too revealing either. Combining your name, age, birthday or hometown can help someone figure out who you are. It doesn’t take a genius.
- Consider what you’re posting online and post only what you are comfortable with people seeing and knowing about you. Many people can easily find your information such as teachers, parents, police, colleges or jobs you may be applying for.
- Remember that once you post something online, you can’t undo it. You can delete it but older versions of the same sites can exist on other people’s computers.
- Carefully consider photos you decide to share with the world. You can limit access to your photos to your friends only and not strangers.
- Flirting online with strangers can be very dangerous because anyone can lie about who they are.
- If you are ever threatened by anyone online, tell an adult, the police and the social networking site. You could prevent someone else from becoming a victim.

Parents, if your children are using these sites, make sure you stay involved. You may even consider joining the site and becoming their friend online. It’s a great way to keep up with who your child is talking to. Monitor what they’re talking about, who they talk to and information they are sharing with the world.

Another way to monitor your child’s activity online is through a computer activity tracking software like the Intellispy. This software gives you the ability to track what your child does every time they get on the computer. You have a right to know and to protect your child. Features: – Key Logging: see everything typed onto the keyboard…this includes emails, instant messages, social networking activity – Screenshots: see snapshots of the screen taken at 1 minute intervals – Block web sites: limit access to web sites that you feel are inappropriate for your child.

Is fishoil helpful?

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Here’s an email I got. I get one email a day or so from this Dr. This one was good enough to share. (this is not my email)

Yesterday, I became aware of a hot new diet program called “AFD.”
Now, I don’t need it, because I’ve already lost 60 pounds the old fashioned way, by putting less food in my mouth than I used to, getting some daily exercise, and taking some of my own brand of supplements.

But you need not worry about these things yourself, because the new AFD Diet works, even if you don’t follow it. And what could be easier than that? (Hefting Jello shooters might come to mind.) This new diet is simply too good to be true.

In Week 1, you get to drench all your food in butter…or pork fat.
It doesn’t matter what it is…it could be Cheeto’s dunked in pork fat…or an Elvis sandwich dunked in butter.

Now y’all remember the Elvis. It was a whole loaf of pullman bread, filled with peanut butter and jelly and then stuffed with a pound of bacon, which was then fried on the grill, on all sides, in butter.
Elvis once flew his entire entourage to Denver, picked up 50 of the sandwiches and then flew back to Graceland.

In Week 2, you get giant pancakes and sausage biscuits, with any kind of hash you like, and they serve it on huge platters, with donuts to mop up everything. You can drink Cokes till the cows come home and there are candy bars to keep your energy levels up all the time.

In Week 3, you get Pizza any time you like and it’s none of that thin style Cali-Forn-Ya stuff. No sirreebob, it’s all Chicago style, deep dish extravaganza and there are at least 100 toppings, including foie gras and caviar. Beer is the beverage of the week and it comes in Oktoberfest mugs, which hold about a gallon.

In Week 4, it’s fried everything. You name it…if you can fry it…
you can eat it. The highlight of the week is burgers from a joint in Memphis, where they deep fry your burgers in grease that hasn’t been changed in 80 some years. You just haven’t lived, until you’ve had one of these. The dessert highlight is fried Cheesecake from the Cheesecake Factory. Any cheesecake they make can be fried in beer batter.

From Week 5 on, it’s just rinse and repeat. The extra weight you’ve been carrying will just fall off as you gorge yourself and sleep off each meal. By the end of Week 7 or 8, you should be down 30 pounds or so.

Some wiseacre just had to ask what AFD stood for.

April Fool’s Day.

Because we all know that no diet can be successful if you just keep doing what you’ve always done.

Losing weight…and getting fit and healthy, requires that you make some new lifestyle changes. I’ve always recommended you take one step at a time and gradually phase out the bad choices, in favor of good ones.

Then…before you know it…you have started losing unwanted poundage. And believe me, nobody really wants to carry around that extra flubber, in spite of protestations to the contrary.

Start by getting my Powerhouse Omega Formula. Then start taking it.
It will help you start moving the sludge in your bloodstream out the door. Then stop drinking soda, or eating snack food. Do one thing to help yourself every week and in three months, you’ll have dropped some weight, without a lot of effort.

Then keep going. And every once in a while, treat yourself to one of your old favorites. (Once in a month.) You’re going to get a surprise sometimes…some of that stuff just doesn’t taste that good, after you give it up.

Just don’t let me catch you eating an Elvis sandwich.

I’ll be back tomorrow with more.

With my best wishes for your optimum health,

No Matter What Time of Day It Is, Do You Know Where Your Kids Are?

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

The world is a different place than it used to be, we all know this. If you don’t, then go ahead and climb out from under that rock, pop a cold drink of your choice and look around.

Lets take Florida, for example. Four children, three of them gone forever. No longer living in the safety and comfort of their own homes.

Haleigh Cummings vanishes in the night from her own bed. There is enough personal drama surrounding this case to fill a football stadium but that’s beyond the point. A five year old girl was taken and although she is still listed as missing, information from veteran officers close to the case have secret “low hopes” for finding this baby alive.

Then there was seven year old Somer Thompson. Who after being seperated from a group of kids on the daily walk home from school was found in a Georgia landfill just 3 days later. Murdered by an unknown person, in an unknown place for an unknown reason. There is a person of interest in this case but no new information.

Seventeen year old Makia Coney, almost a senior in high school. Got in a truck with two known classmates after school one afternoon. Her parents reported her missing and just 3 hours after leaving the school her body was found in a nearby park with 2 different gunshot wounds to the head. Her classmates confessed to the crime with no clear motive.

And just a couple weeks ago, a newborn baby was taken from his family by Department of Family Services impersonater who claimed to have followed the couple for 2 days. The kidnapper told her family the baby was a girl. Luckily, it was discovered the baby was actually a boy and he was safely returned to his family.

I’m sure I left out cases in Florida that are no less important then these. And if I went state by state I know there are hundreds more. Some you never hear about.

As mature as your child may seem, they are still children. They are lacking life experiences that prepare them for dangerous situations. That’s why they look to us to protect them. And even when it seems as though we drive them crazy, they still need us.

And for heaven’s sake, a little common sense goes long way. What would you do if a “social worker” showed up just 3 days after your baby came home from the hospital? Thank her for dropping by and hand over your baby? I don’t think so. “You better go get the police and pry this baby from my dead body”, that’s what I’d say.

Take the responsibility of keeping your loved ones safe.

Rape cases spur sales of pepper spray, Tasers

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

The demand for stun guns, Tasers and pepper spray jumped on Tuesday with the news of nine sexual assaults or rapes reported in Fayetteville and Hope Mills and on Fort Bragg.

It’s too late to protect yourself after the fact. Being prepared gives you time to get away.

Who is caring for your child?

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

While 9 month old Emily plays in a crib, her young, single mother gets ready to go to work. She recently hired a part-time nanny to watch after Emily during the day.
Her daughter was the happiest baby anyone had ever met. Always laughing and smiling, having fun and being a baby. But after a few weeks Emily’s disposition changed drastically. Her mother thought it may have been from a lack of naps and sat down with the nanny to emphasize the importance of a schedule.
Not wanting to take any chances, Emily’s mother purchased an Air Freshener with a hidden camera and digital video recorder built inside. It was very simple to use…she just plugged it in, chose to record only when motion was detected and hit record.
She returned home from work one afternoon to find Emily down for an afternoon nap. She almost felt guilty for sneaking around with the hidden camera.
After saying her goodbye’s to the nanny and settling in from her day of work she decided to review the video.
Much to her dismay, she saw that her daughter was left in a play pen in the living room for the first 4 hours while the nanny slept. After the nanny couldn’t sleep through baby Emily’s cries any longer the nanny would let her roam freely around the house. The mother’s anger is building and building.
A little further in to the recording, she watches as some friends of the nanny’s show up at the house. During this time, it seems the nanny locked little Emily in her room.
Still angry, of course, Emily’s mom continued to watch. Tears filled her eyes as she watched the nanny slap her child. The nanny would walk by Emily and kick her out of the way. She picked her up like a rag doll and tossed her onto the furniture.
Emily’s mom stopped the recording, grabbed the phone, and went to Emily. While dialing the police, she picked Emily up from the crib and noticed bruising on various parts of her body, including her face.
Thankfully, because of the nanny cam purchase, a trip to the emergency room, and a police report filed, Emily is alive and healthy today. A nanny is in jail.
