Just another step of Burning Man becoming mainstream: I am reading The Wall Street Journal, and there's a book review for a new novel entitled Homeland (the headline of the article is Unfriending Big Brother). It starts off taking place at Burning Man, which the WSJ describes as, and I quote, "...the annual festival of techno-counterculture held in the Nevada desert...The centerpiece is a re-creation of the burning of the Library of Alexandria..." And on it goes. I might actually go out and buy the novel. I've always wondered with this Burning Man thing is all about.

JACKSONVILLE, NC — Marine Corps officials released the results of a month-long wargame earlier today, claiming that the study has proven women are capable of serving in combat positions.

The wargame, dubbed Operation Irrational Rage, was planned days after Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta opened combat roles to women. Lieutenant Colonel Jordan O’Neil commanded 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, tasked with finding and destroying an enemy outpost hidden somewhere in the countryside. O’Neil was chosen for combat command after distinguishing herself by replacing PT with Zumba classes, outfitting her Marines with different uniforms so no one could argue who wore theirs better, and replacing MRE’s with salads and pints of yogurt.

You're always making me look things up.
Good thought though.


Here's some british beef trivia

"The legally required minimum meat that must be included in beefburgers in the UK is 62%, or 47% for economy beefburgers."

(It's all horsemeat, always has been, except apparently for Sainsbury's)

Rockville Centre Man Gets Summonses For Laughing Too Loudly



ROCKVILLE CENTRE, N.Y. (CBSNewYork/AP) — A Nassau County man does not think it is funny at all that he was ticketed for laughing in his own home.

But as CBS 2’s John Slattery reported, the circumstances are more complicated than they may appear.

Robert Schiavelli, 41, of Rockville Centre, is a boisterous individual who surprisingly got not one summons, but two, for laughing.

The problem is that he was laughing at his next-door neighbor, whom Schiavelli said taunts him and calls him names.

“(The neighbor) started mocking me – ‘retard’ this; mocking dance around,” he said.

Schiavelli, who suffered from seizures as a child and has neurological impairments, said the neighbor, Daniel O’Hanian, often taunts him due to his disability. He learned to deal with it by laughing him off.

Most recently, Schiavelli laughed out an upstairs window, where he said his neighbor had been staring at him. As a result, police responded to his home on Feb. 12 and Feb. 13 after the neighbor complained of hearing his laugh across the driveway.

Schiavelli ended up with two summonses for disturbing the peace: “Acting in such a manner as to annoy, disturb, interfere with, obstruct, or be offensive to others.”

“I think it’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of in my life,” Schiavelli said.

And his mother, with whom he lives, agrees.

“I really don’t think laughing constitutes disturbing the peace,” said Suzanne Schiavelli.

Robert Schiavelli was a special education student who has a high school diploma. He said he loves looking out the window.

At his arraignment Tuesday, a judge declined to dismiss the charges.

As it stands now, Schiavelli faces up to 30 days in jail and $500 in fines.

Attorney Andrew Campanelli said he is filing a motion to have the tickets, which he calls “laughable,” dismissed on the grounds that Rockville Centre’s ordinance about disturbing the peace is “unconstitutionally vague.”

O’Hanian’s wife defended the summonses and told 1010 WINS’ Mona Rivera that police investigated the matter and found cause to issue the tickets.
