			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>now many of mythical/magical creatures are deemed fake or scientifically impossible but the advantage of science is that nobody can claim something as a fact unless backed by a million page report. Now, this is where I present you a theory on the extinction of Vampire. From my source (internet), no real plausible vampire attack reports been made but but the number of reports have reduced from 17~19th century to 20th century.</p>
<p>Now, you may wonder what does heavy metals have to do with vampires. Ever since the industrial revolution, the use of heavy metals became accessible and very common, and god knows how and where those heavy metals were used. Those heavy metals used without realizing that they are harmful to human body, still remain in our blood. The levels of these heavy metals have been reduced quite a lot in present day, but they were not so diluted back in 19th and 20th century. Vampires drink human blood, now there are some retard vampires who refuses to drink human blood *cough* but most of vampires drink human blood like a normal vampire. Nobody really knows how vampire&#8217;s metabolism works and they are known to be immune to poisons and other harmful substances that can kill humans but all living matters but what about heavy metals. Heavy metals work differently then regular poisons. Regular poisons work by causing disturbances to organisms (definition from<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poison"> wikipedia</a>) but heavy metals accumulate in one&#8217;s body and can cause one&#8217;s nervous system to degenerate and other serious illnesses (look them up your selves.)</p>
<p>Now, I don&#8217;t know anything about vampire anatomy but I&#8217;m pretty sure of 3 things. 1. they will not work properly without a brain. 2.they have some sort of working spinal cord. 3. they have some sort of DNA in their cells. Since humans are on the top of the food chain and eats variety of meat and plants, humans naturally have an accumulation of heavy metals in their blood. From these assumptions I can guess what a good does of heavy metal in their system will do. When a vampire drinks human blood, most of these heavy metals are going to transfer into vampire&#8217;s system. What would happen if a vampire drinks enough human blood with heavy metals? Wouldn&#8217;t there be a massive accumulation of heavy metals in vampires? Wouldn&#8217;t heavy metals attack the nervous system, their brain, and their unknown internal organs and have a negative effects on them? I absolutely positively think they would have a negative effects on vampires and if there was enough heavy metals accumulated. Wouldn&#8217;t vampire&#8217;s system shut down and perhaps die? and if so, vampires won&#8217;t be able to drink human blood anymore and die from hunger? Plus, some heavy metals are a radical, meaning that they can mutate your DNA, and since vampires run on blood, the heavy metals in their blood just might effect their cells and cause a mutation and when I say mutation, it doesn&#8217;t mean getting a tongue that shoots laser.</p>
<p>So, there just might be a reason for governments all over the world poisoning our ecosystem with heavy metals and that they are not a stupid as they look.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So its been umm months since my last post and you know what i feel damn good about it. I have watched a few years worth of anime in the past umm 6 to 7 months. Bottom line its great but become predictable sigh anyways that&#8217;s irrelevant. I always thought karma was bullshit mostly cause every time i did selfless acts of kindness it was usually repaid with a big cluster fuck of dick mashing moose knuckles while being a douche bag and not giving a flying fuck is all fine and good. Where was the shit that goes around then comes back around&#8230; I never did find that circular flying good vibes tornado. But the great thing about this is that it might not have been karma but it was definitely fucking awesome. I got my head smashed in (well, emotionally at least) in the last relationship i was in and&#8230; to say the least, I wished a horrible firestorm of world ending proportions to befall the girl in the relationship (don&#8217;t worry now, she is fine &#8211; nothing bad happened to her). But in my case i think something karma like decided that it was my turn to have something great happen. I wont say what cause the people involved would hate me for it. Bottom line though. Luck or karma &#8211; doesn&#8217;t matter at all really. But when the world has you cornered and under the heel of a tempest bitch of a mistress, don&#8217;t despair because soon enough something will saunter by and flip your fuck nut of a life around and make everything fall into place for a bit at least and give you that boost that you need. Karma or not, thank you universe. Next time don&#8217;t wait so fucking long you asshole.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK since the last time i posted i think that a few things have happened just a few tho&#8230;first off new girl friend, new computer, forgetting about the fallout review i was gonna write probably after that i would say blue screens out the ass, a ton  of anime watched and then turning 18 being drunk for 2 weeks straight then having to put down my dog because of failing kidneys and now 4 days later posting. Doesnt seem like much but that is a shit load of stuff over around 6ish months maybe more there are of course other things in between but those are big events in my life other then the fallout thing those are small fish. All in all a good six months until just recently shit hit the turbine but yeah i am gonna try a put something together here that is actually worth putting up other then this dribble &#8230;. and i figured out a quote i quite like i hope you all do to</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As of some time ago,  WoW has been officially declared an addiction, or a &#8220;drug&#8221;. Not only this, but according to Sweden&#8217;s Youth Care Foundation it<span style="color: #000000;"> </span> is also a &#8216;key addiction&#8221; among gamers. As the message is obviously not convincing enough in itself, Mr. Rollenhagen declared, &#8220;It is the crack cocaine of the computer game world.&#8221;</p>
<p>One of the basis of their announcement was an event that occured a week after the new expansion came out. A 15-year-old boy from western Sweden collapsed and went into convulsions on Sunday afternoon after playing the World of Warcraft for 20 hours straight. After the even was made public, thousands of parental calls were made to the association. The foundation says that in 2007, it received 2,000 calls to its addiction helpline, 170 of which concerned computer games. Presumably, all 170 calls involved World of Warcraft. According to their speaker she has seen a &#8220;steady rise in computer game addiction, with most cases stemming from those playing online fantasy games such as World of Warcraft and Counter Strike.&#8221;</p>
<p><span>WoW might not be just a game, it might be laced with drugs, which evil Blizzard enforces on our children. For parents of those, I have two words: &#8220;Parental Control&#8221;. Don&#8217;t blame the game, blame yourself. As a responsible parent, you should learn that your child plays World of Warcraft beforehand, not postfactum. Especially if you&#8217;re the one paying for it. Then, don&#8217;t leave it hanging and set up parental controls on your child&#8217;s account, don&#8217;t assume a 15-year-old would know the limits. Pay attention to what your kid is doing before they collapse in epileptic shock.</span>  </p>

<p>The Sony Ericsson Shiho has an 8.1 megapixel camera (yeah that&#8217;s right 8.1 holly SHIT) with both Xenon and LED flashes. It is also said to have GPS, TV out, DLNA certification and HSDPA. What a rap sheet indeed.</p>
<p>It is said to be announced on the 17th of June, so we will see if this amazing rumor pulls out to be true or if we will never see this again (but i&#8217;m putting my money on this one being announced, fo sho).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was recently introduced to <a href="http://www.ted.com/">this website</a> by my Social teacher of all people. I could go on and on about <a href="http://www.ted.com/">this wesbite and its genius</a> but I believe that <a href="http://www.ted.com/">TED</a> can <a href="http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks">talk for himself</a>. The website is really a video account of an annual convention where a number of interesting experts on various subjects (any subject really, there are no rules) talk. That is what they do, they talk. They talk on a wide variety of EXTREMELY interesting topics. By spending a mere hour on this website you will learn, to be completely precise, <em>a whole fucking lot</em>. I have always been a strong believer in the idea that all knowledge is relevant and that learning about anything and everything is always the best way to go. Always find out random shit and expand your library of inconsistent facts and you will find yourself understanding and enjoying life to a newer extent.</p>
<p>So I beg that you please <a href="http://www.ted.com/">visit this site</a> and watch something that interests you, It is a collection of the ideas of the beautiful minds of a handfull of the worlds most masterful orators. This website is an intellectual <strong>gold mine</strong> just waiting to be exploited.</p>
<p><em><br />
Just to juice up this post further</em> I will include a few videos that I personally really enjoyed and found incredibly fascinating.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Flair bartending.<br />
Awesome.</p>
<p>SO there I was watching the food network earlier today when I get to this show about bartending &#8220;competitions&#8221; or something. I decided to give it a try to see where it would go. The show started off slowly and wasnt terribly interesting, it concerned a number of proffesional bartenders making custom drinks, the shortcomings of which the judges would use to piss all over their dreams shortly after for the first round of the show. The second round of the competition involved the bartenders making a number of drinks as fast as they could without spilling anything or missing any ingredients (they pretty much all fucked this one up in some way or another). But what <em>really</em> caught my interest about this bartending competition was the &#8220;Flair&#8221; section of the show; the third part of the competition and one of the most fucking awesome things I&#8217;ve ever seen done with booze!</p>
<p>Flair bartending is a type of bartending where a proffesional bartender/acrobat crossbreed is given about six minutes or more to mix a few simple drinks while also doing some incredibly ridiculous shit involving juggling many colourful bottles, metal tins and lemon wedges. The winner of the food network competition was a man named Christian Delpech, brother of the man who came in second place: Rodrigo Delpech. I searched up some of this &#8220;flair bartending&#8221; on the series of tubes this afternoon and from what I&#8217;ve gathered it seems that Christian is a 16 time world champion and his brother is a very close second. To give you an idea of sickeningly fantastic they are at this &#8220;sport&#8221; Ive added two videos showcasing some skillful competitors.</p>
<p>This video showcases the highlights of six world class competitors. The winner of this competition is none other than Rodrigo Delpech.<br />

<p>This video shows the man himself, Christian Delpech, pissing in the face of gravity.<br />
