Say Goodbye - Another Dangerous Product Bites The Dust

Who over the age of - well whatever - doesn't remember trying to be "cool." Today people are "cool" if they have ink over large parts of their bodies, multiple piercings, black nail polish, baseball caps worn anyway but anatomically correct and pants with a waist worn slightly above one's knees. Ah - to be "cool."

At one time, till yesterday, kids could be "cool" with a candy cigarette hanging out of ones mouth while enjoying the intoxicating taste of processed sugar. No more - it is now AGAINST THE LAW!  Candy (CANDY cigarettes) are now illegal and not "cool."

You can however, still be a gangsta and sing songs about popping a cap in a pig's ass and beatin' and rapin' your biotch.  Now that's legally "cool."

Fred and Barney should have been locked up a long time ago.

Belgian Malinois Detects Prostate Cancer

There has been a breakthrough in Prostrate Cancer Detection. Right from the Government sources we learn that Belgian Malinois can very effectively detect prostate cancer in human male urine. The Belgian Malinois in initial tests ran some very good numbers:

"Research suggests that dogs can sniff out signs of prostate cancer in human urine, adding to the ongoing debate over the disease-detecting powers of man's best friend...
the lead author of this latest study said the findings are promising and could lead to better cancer-sensing technology. "The dogs are certainly recognizing the odor of a molecule that is produced by cancer cells," said French researcher Jean-Nicolas Cornu, who works at Hospital Tenon in Paris.
The problem, he said, is that "we do not know what this molecule is, and the dog cannot tell us."Still, the report could represent a significant development since cancer often goes undetected until it is too late to treat."

Some types of molecules give a distinct odor to urine, "but today there is no means to screen odors from urine and separate them," he said, and no way to link them to cancer.

Enter the dog, whose powers of smell are far greater than those of humans. For this study, two researchers spent a year training a Belgian Malinois shepherd, a breed already used to detect drugs and bombs. The dog was trained to differentiate between urine samples from men with prostate cancer and men without. Ultimately, researchers placed groups of five urine samples in front of the dog to see if it could identify the sole sample from a man with prostate cancer. The dog correctly classified 63 out of 66 specimens."

The dog and technical successive developments will greatly reduce the need for biopsies. The 63 cases were true positives. The three errors were false positives. However Sharky&Sharky think that the way to bet is with the Belgian Malinois. The false positives are a bet on the come.

Is there anybody in charge with an ounce of good sense…No. 1?

This comes under Sharky&Sharky's headings of "shoot me" or "keeping pouring me straight 127 proof bourbon until I die, WTF"
Yes, Folks he's here, our own Uncle Joe Stalin, he has been run out of Europe. But he is here in the US for all to see in Bedford, Virginia at the National D-Day Memorial. His bust accompanies statues of Churchill and Roosevelt. Fact: Russians did not participate in landing at Normandy. Fact: at the low end Stalin is responsible for the deaths of 20 million of his own people. (high end estimates are 50 million)
The Dr. Lee Edwards, chairman of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, said that he and others thought that the bust of Stalin was a joke when they first heard about it. Ha Ha the jokes on the Victims. Here is Dr. Edwards more formal statement opposing the Stalin bust.
Accompanying the statue is a plaque which reads: "In memory of the tens of millions who died under Stalin's rule and in tribute to all whose valor, fidelity, and sacrifice denied him and his successors victory in the cold war."
Sharky&Sharky can only say "give me a double shot" and WTF is this plaque saying?

The Uncle Joe that we all know and love.

The "Thumb" Is Mightier Than The Sword

My how times have changed - Gotham City has issued an ALL Points Bulletin for immediate help from the TRT!  Guns don't kill people any longer - TEXTING does.

A 22-year-old Virginia woman was recently murdered by her ex-boyfriend.  During the ensuing investigation, it was discovered that numerous alarming text messages had been sent to her including an ominous one: "you don't need nobody else but me."  SharkyandSharky suggest anyone who receives a message such as this immediately call 911.  A message such as this could ultimately kill you.

Bobby Manifests a Set of Balls

Sharky&Sharky could never understand why the state of Lousiana elected a Republican governor, Bobby Jindal (It is really not Bobby but Piyush; but southerners can't say and would prefer not to say PiYush). There have only been three Republican governors since 1877. One was a switcher. The third one was Bobby.

In all articles Booby is proclaimed Indian American. Of course Sharky&Sharky have not idea what that is. Does that means he is member of the Cherokee Nation. Guess if Barry is an African American then Bobby is a ok being a Paiute or Piyush.

As said earlier Sharky&Sharky could not understand why Bobby a rather homely, short, poor speech-giving Indian American was elected by the citizens of the Lousiana to be their governor. Perhaps it is because he is smart just plan smart.

However we all know that smart is not enough in the political arena. There bulls gore smart. Sharky&Sharky wanted to know does Bobby have balls: Yes nerve, Clint Eastwood/John Wayne fiber, Shane flint (Joey: Was that him Shane: Shane: That was him. That was Wilson alright. He was fast - fast on the draw.)

On Monday June 14, Bobby met with Barry. Sharky&Sharky note this event as a first meeting of an African American and  Indian American Barry did not stay for oily oysters. I am sure that Bobby pressed his case for help, but Barry gave him nothing that Sharky&Sharky can find. However within less than 24 hours of Barry meeting with Bobby; Bobby strapped on some steel. (Bobby is the Indian American in the picture from ABC News) quoting from ABC News: Eight weeks into the oil spill disaster in the Gulf of the Mexico, Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal has told the National Guard that there's no time left to wait for BP, so they're taking matters into their own hands. In Fort Jackson, La., Jindal has ordered the Guard to start building barrier walls right in the middle of the ocean. The barriers, built nine miles off shore, are intended to keep the oil from reaching the coast by filling the gaps between barrier islands. Today, huge Blackhawk and Chinook helicopters lined up in the air, dropping sandbags one by one into the sea. "They are lifting up about 7,000 pounds of sandbags," said 1st Lt. James Tyson Gabler.

Now Sharky&Sharky have no idea if this is a good plan or a horrible plan. However a man has to do what he has to do; even if it means defying the federal government. Also, It may happen that the Kingfish was wrong when he said, "One of these days the people of Louisiana are going to get good government - and they aren't going to like it." Sharky&Sharky suggest that BP grant Bobby's $500 million research proposal.

Because BP "Bobby is not only smart but fast"

Here's Looking At You Kid...TRT Is Back Again

SharkyandSharky like a good looking woman or man just as much as most.  Attractive human beings have been worshiped since the dawn of time.  From Apollo to Venus, it is apparent that beauty is certainly skin deep just as ugly can be evidenced well below the epidermis.  But beauty is soon to become an unattractive subject - a subject that may soon have severe legal consequences.  Let's look at a couple of examples:

Magazines generate most of their income from advertisers.  Said advertisers do not want ugly people as models.  Sex sells products and people do not fantasize about having sex with ugly people - except maybe for Rosie O'Donnell.  From Playboy to Vogue, beauty and all of it's baggage is what generates interest and desire and ultimately income.

Hooters - need I say more?  Men families frequent establishments such as these for the beautiful entrees.

Hollywood - without beauty and glamour it simply would not exist.  The "beautiful people" and all their self-serving awards ceremonies alone are proof of this.

TV News Babes - you can hardly turn on the news without catching a glimpse of one of these talking heads.  They are there for one reason and one reason alone - and it is not for their journalistic expertise.

SharkyandSharky could go on and on, but you get the point.

Sharky&Sharky agree with Rabinowitz…Barry is an Alien

Dorothy Rabinowitz, a member of the Wall Street Journal editorial board, has proclaimed the proposition that Barry is an alien in the White House. She says
"Those qualities to be expected in a president were never about rhetoric; Mr. Obama had proved himself a dab hand at that on the campaign trail. They were a matter of identification with the nation and to all that binds its people together in pride and allegiance."…"He is hard put to sound convincingly like the leader of the nation, because he is, at heart and by instinct, the voice mainly of his ideological class. He is the alien in the White House."
Ms Rabinowitz goes on to powerfully remind us how difficult it is for the Barry's people to say jihadist or terrorist and that the White House is no longer the cornerstone and keystone of the world's freedoms and leadership but
"It is a White House that has focused consistently on the sensitivities of the world community—as it is euphemistically known—a body of which the president of the United States frequently appears to view himself as a representative at large..."The beliefs and attitudes that this president has internalized are to be found everywhere—in the salons of the left the world over—and, above all, in the academic establishment, stuffed with tenured radicals and their political progeny. The places where it is held as revealed truth that the United States is now, and has been throughout its history, the chief engine of injustice and oppression in the world."
Sharky&Sharky wish to turn from these profound expressions of policy and politics of Ms Rabinowitz to the more technical world of space a program which now he modifies to embrace the sensitivities of the world and assuredly arrests US hegemony in this technical arena.
First Video of Mr Obama's speech at the Kennedy Space Center, the text of the text of the Speech.
The warriors embroiled in the speech are the forces for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) activities and the forces for going on to Mars directly. (The speech is 30 minutes) In this speech Barry basically aligns with the LEO advocates desiring to rely on Russia's International Space Station and commercial development staging steps to get to Mars against the Advocates for Mars Direct who do not want the Constellation cancelled as this is a big direct step to getting to Mars. Now not even Sharky&Sharky can say what is the right choice so let us turn to some experts.
Dr. Buzz Aldrin is a big advocate for LEO direction he asserts that the President's plan gets us to Mars:
"Mars is the long-range objective for our space program. Just as deep sea exploration began with practice in our littoral waters, a successful Mars mission begins with near-Earth orbit testing. To get to the final stage, we must perfect all that we'll need for the journey. The president' budget and step-by-step approach helps do that, minimizing the risks and costs as we go."
The President's plan comes from a study that determined that the Constellation plan was flawed and the direction should be changed. This study was headed up by Norm Augustine former CEO of Lockheed. The LEO plan calls for considerable commercial development. Mr. Augustine presentation to Congress his plan indicates that(1) Current program is not sustainable (say Constellation) (2) The US needs to encourage the development of dependencies on the commercial environment (3) We will get us to Mars in stages. Unsaid by both the President, Augustine and Aldrin is that the US will be dependent on Russia's International Space Station and commercially built spaceships to launch the US astronauts. Sort of like taking a ferry across the Potomac to get to Air Force 1.
Well, what is the opposing view from Armstrong, Lovell, and Cernan. Cernan wishes that the Congress will veto the President's LEO direction in that (1) After three more shuttle trips to the ISS the US will no longer be going anywhere (2) The Moon will not be used as a stepping stone to Mars. Lovell asserts that the plan "gives NASA nothing to strive for". Along with Armstrong, the boys got a little testy in a signed open letter.
"For The United States, the leading space faring nation for nearly half a century, to be without carriage to low Earth orbit and with no human exploration capability to go beyond Earth orbit for an indeterminate time into the future, destines our nation to become one of second or even third rate stature." (Remember the great Portuguese explorers: Prince Henry the Navigator, Vasco DeGama, Ferdinand Magellan; their people can no longer travel due to their debt). ...Without the skill and experience that actual spacecraft operation provides, the USA is far too likely to be on a long downhill slide to mediocrity. America must decide if it wishes to remain a leader in space.
How does third rate work for you?
Now let us reflect on Ms Rabinowitz concern that Barry is an alien. Sharky&Sharky are sort of smart but we are not smarter than Armstrong, Aldrin et al. Moon first; Mars first; Sharky&Sharky do not know. Sharky&Sharky do not know why the heck Mar's is the target. But we know leadership; we know hegemony; we know mediocrity. We know that if you are sitting at the international poker table focused on world sensitivities you will either be shot or you will lose. This is not the time to become Portuguese. Barry's plan as stated takes away US control of its space fate; it makes us weak and dependent on the most corrupt country on earth, Russia. But this is the type of plan the Alien comes up with; a plan that blunts the US leadership and creates dependencies, comparable to the ideological class that he knows well as a neighborhood organizer.

Come On In...The Oil's Fine

From bayous to bays to beaches, from sea to shining sea, the muck that is continually belching from below is suffocating life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  Not to mention creating an ecological quagmire and imbroglio that will continue to swallow flora and fauna alike for decades to come.

Sadness, sorrow and tears are not sufficient to make this nightmare go away.

Dem Straits

Ahhh... The ugly "beauty" of social re-engineering.

The World Turns Against Israel but not Sharky&Sharky

Israel is an US ally. Sharky&Sharky will write an extensive article at a later time on the latest action by Israel to protect it's sovereignty . Israel boarded and stopped a "freedom flotilla" from Turkey from proceeding to Gaza.  This has caused the Muslim world to cry out with great pain and outrage to demand that Israel be critized and condemned. But we want our ally, Israel, to know that Sharky&Sharky know that they did what a sovereign nation should do to protect its borders: Stop the Freedom Flotilla.

Further the flotilla and in the future, more flotillas, should not be allow to proceed to Gaza.

Of course the United Nations and Barry will demand a major investigation which will show that Israel has committed unprovoked crimes against the freedom flotilla. This will be based on the the thinnest of grounds of an unprovoked attacked on a care giving group supporting the poor in Gaza.
