The dog must be really smart to figure out how to get into the bathtub.

Emma Sullivan and the Power of Social Media

If you are unaware of whats going on with Emma Sullivan, the short story is she posted a nasty tweet towards the Kansas (a state in the US) governor.  She got in trouble with her school.  For a better understanding please watch the following videos:

From KSHB NBC Action News (Kansas City Affiliate):

From CNN:

Today CBS reported the following today:

 Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback apologized on Monday for having "over-reacted" to 18-year-old Emma Sullivan, a high school student who had earlier been asked to apologize for making a disparaging remark about the conservative politician over Twitter.
"My staff over-reacted to this tweet and for that I apologize," Brownback said in a written statement, "freedom of speech is among our most treasured freedoms."

I totally support her not apologizing about her tweet and think that the governors office over reacted way to much.  Her tweet was perfectly justified and is highly protected by the 1st amendment because her tweet was political speech.  (The US 1st amendment provides free speech among other things).  Also, to bounce off of Brownback's comment, Twitter, Facebook and other social media is an important part of free democratic government and is an important tool in getting things changed like we have seen with Arab Spring.  

Everytime We Touch editing error

If you watch from 3:03 to 3:08 in Cascada's video "Everytime We Touch" you will notice an editing error. From 3:03 to 3:05 the Asian girl is taking the chair off the dance floor.  From 3:05 to 3:06 the Asian girl is dancing on the dance floor.  Then on 3:07 the Asian girl is walking on to the dance floor from where she left the chair.  If the people making the video wanted all three shots in the video, they should have appeared  in the following order:  taking the chair off the dance floor, girl walking back onto the dance floor, and girl dancing.

KISS family photo

I found this picture of Awkward Family Photos.  On one hand I find this hilarious and awesome, but extremely sad on the other.

Darling Parade

I found out about Darling Parade, because they started following me on Twitter.  Darling Parade is a band from Nashville Tennessee (USA).  They have a really good sound and their music has been featured on many TV shows.  I hope they do well and have much success.
