Hit the Sun

Maar dat zou wel eens een ongezonde keus kunnen zijn. Blootstelling aan de zon is namelijk slecht voor je huid, maar erg goed voor je hart.Volgens een onderzoek van de University of Edinburgh zorgt zonlicht dat nitric oxide in ons bloed komt. Die stog zorgt voor een verlaging van de bloeddruk en verlaagt dus ook alle schadelijke effecten die verbonden zijn aan te hoge bloeddruk. De onderzoekers denken dat de heilzame effecten aanzienlijk zijn. En dat weegt vermoedelijk royaal op tegen de negatieve effecten in verband met huidkaner. In ons deel van de wereld is de kans op hart- en vaatziekten 60 tot 100 keer hoger dan de kans op huidkanker. (via)

    The tip-off to trouble was a March inspection of the 91st Missile Wing at Minot Air Force Base, N.D., which earned the equivalent of a “D” grade when tested on its mastery of Minuteman III missile launch operations. 70% is still passing, what is the military’s problemo? (via)

        domburg appartementen

        Aan de voet van ‘De Hoge Hill’ , de hoogste duintop van Domburg, ligt het in 2013 herbouwde vakantiehuis. ‘The Hill’ U kijkt uit op het duinlandschap en loopt in drie minuten via een eenvoudig pad naar de boulevard, het strand en de zee.

        Vanaf het terras kunt u de branding horen en de zeelucht opsnuiven. De Domburgse golfbaan en het zwemparadijs, mooie galeries en museum liggen op vijf minuten wandelafstand. De ‘Hill’ ligt op een zeer rustige locatie, terwijl de gezellige Domburgse winkelstraat met mooie boetieks en warme bakkers, gezellige terrassen en prima restaurants om de hoek zijn te vinden.

        Het afgelopen jaar hebben wij twee fantastische appartementen in Domburg verbouwd naar vijf sterrenstatus.

        Deze Domburgse vakantiewoningen zijn vanaf heden te huur:

              Shame on you Boston marathon looters

              People stealing Boston marathon jackets, while others are just feet away critically injured.

              Update:

              THEY WERE GIVING THEM AWAY to comfort injured or those who could not go back to hotel. The guy whom you can see carrying the boxes brought them to us. Yes, some people took advantage of it, what can you do, but it’s not looting what you see

                How Memes Are Orchestrated?

                Google’s trend charts of the phrase “Harlem Shake” are seismic. No one looked for the words until Feb. 7, then searches surged faster than any term Google ever had, except for “Whitney Houston” after her death. A few weeks later, they fell close to zero. HOwever, corporations had more to to with the popularity of the Harlem Shake than you or I did. An investigation of the Harlem Shake.

                  The Real Story Behind Facebook Moderation and Your Petty Reports

                  Imagine going to work every day and at the start of your day, with your first cup of coffee, you sit down to glance at beheadings, children in the process of being raped, human bodies in various stages of decomposition, the living and dead results of domestic violence, hanging bodies of 10 year old boys accused of being gay, real-life snuff films and bloody dog fighting rings and their subsequent results. Can you think up a human horror? I’ve probably seen it or a picture or video of something very similar.

                  Not all of the information that Facebook moderators are privy to is as horrifying as the end results mention above, some are worse. The terror in those is that they are the calls of those whose private horrors, abuse or murders are currently in process. True cries for help come from FB users every day, all day long.

                      Anyone leading an organization today is already managing a crowd—whether it’s composed of consumers, the media, or citizens of the towns in which the enterprise operates. What TED faced is the new reality for all of us. “Nothing is predictable,” Stein concludes. “This flies in the face of leaders’ being asked to plan and predict and know more than others. Today we have to create scale for our mission by being open. The TEDx construct is an example of how being in a community lets us learn, adapt, and grow together

                          Redressiehelm succes bij Thom

                          thom met helm

                          Thom kreeg vanwege een ernstige afplatting van zijn hoofdje (zij- en achterkant) bij 6 maanden een redressiehelmpje.

                          thom

                          Deze helm mag nu na 5 maanden eindelijk af. Wat zijn we blij met zijn mooie ronde koppie! Wij kregen een compliment van de orthopeed omdat we zo consequent zijn geweest met het 23 uur p/d laten dragen van de helm.

                          Wij zijn vooral trots op Thom, hij heeft er best lang aan moeten wennen. Blij dat we hebben volgehouden. We weten zeker dat Thom ons er later dankbaar voor zal zijn ;)

                                        Did you know Wikipedia section lobbied by countries?

                                        Roger Bamkin

                                        Roger Bamkin, trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation UK, whose LinkedIn page describes him as a high-return-earning PR consultant, appeared to be using Wikipedia’s main page “Did You Know” feature and the resources of Wikipedia’s GLAM WikiProject (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) initiative to pimp his client’s project.

                                        Bamkin’s current client is the country of Gibraltar. In August, Gibraltar was featured as a Wikipedia DYK front page feature an astonishing seventeen times – that’s an unusual frequency of every 2-3 days. Other than the Olympics, it is the only repeated topic throughout the month.

                                              Eduard Khill 1934-2012 – RIP Trolololo-man

                                              Eduard Khil, known to most Western audiences as Internet star “Mr. Trololo,” died early Monday in St. Petersburg after suffering a stroke in April. He was 77. Khil, a baritone who was popular in the 1960s and ’70s in what was then the Soviet Union, received a number of awards during his career, including the People’s Artist of Russia honor, but it wasn’t until a 1976 TV performance surfaced online in late 2009 and hit big in early 2010 that he enjoyed international fame.

                                              Vandaag stierf Eduard Khil [wiki], de Russische zanger die op het internet bekend staat als de Trololo-man (of Trololo Guy in het Engels). In 2010 werd hij een hit toen een opname van hem uit 1976 op YouTube werd geplaatst en viral ging…Op het internet wordt gerouwd om de dood van Khil, zoals op The Huffington Post en WeKnowMemes. Ook conventionele media zoals het Parool en de NOS brengen de dood van Trololo-man, wat laat zien hoe internetcultuur steeds meer onderdeel wordt van de algemene cultuur.
