Leisure Suit Larry in the Land of the Lounge Lizards
Re: Re: I seem to recall that ..
Heh, the virus-infesting game in my times was Prince of Persia ... maybe I was too young to play Larry and thus didn't know about this? ;)
Halliburton latest biz to dump BlackBerry for iPhone
I could think of a lot of 'em:
- Porting BES to Linux, decouple it from the M$ stuff.
- Support other platforms besides LN/Domino and Exchange. Good is pwning 'em hard because of that!
- Fix the damn BB OS and put out decent specs on the damn things! The #1 cause of BB user rage is the clock o' death caused by shared mem going to 0. I'd expect RIM to just slap on 2G shared mem and call it a day but nooooo...
America abandoning DSL in favour of faster cable
My experience...
With cable, I used to get screwed over because anyone could clog up the local segment. I would get dialup speeds just because my neighbor would be downloading stuff. Also, over here cable co's have always used NAT, so you get 10.0.0.0/8 IPs and a crapload of problems with some sites. Finally, any P2P traffic is either banned or throttled, large downloads are usually throttled as well. Gamers have complained about latency, so that's also b0rked on Cable.
With ADSL, I might not get the big speed offerings Cable users get, but at least if they tell me I'll get 6Mbps, I'll probably get at least 5.5 Mbps!
MPAA threat sparks White House petition for bribery probe
Too picky? Yes, we know that the USA is actually an implementation of a funny model called "polity". However, the House/Senate combo is something they share with fully democratic regimes, and operates on the same rules. If SOPA/PIPA were a constitutional amendment, the different rules would apply, but in this case it is only a regular bill. Therefore, the process can be compared with regular democracies.
US military access cards cracked by Chinese hackers
"Blasco added that the use of dynamic tokens that offer two-factor authentication would thwart this particular line of attack."
The US MILITARY needs to be told this?!?!?! I thought they already used these things!!!
Windows 8 to get self-healing 'Storage Spaces'
I'm guessing that all of this is moot, as home users will probably get shafted. What do I mean? Well, MS is bound to put this feature as a "Business/Ultimate only" or whatever, so everyone buying PCs will have to pay double to MS (the OEM license, then the upgrade) to get Storage Spaces. Already the case with their software RAID, Remote Desktop, Hyper-V integration stuff... Bad bad MS.
My company is actually planning on going Apple thanks to that. They rather pay less on MS licensing. :/
Jobs' 'nuclear war' is not doing Apple any good - analyst
Probing Analyst
"The only thing you seem to want is for Apple to be restricted instead of other companies."
Nope, what the tech industry wants is for the bully to be punished for patent misuse. If Apple wants to use its legal rights to quash competition with its patents, the competition can easily cease to license their own patents in the same manner Apple has been blocking them.
Other companies will be as restricted as Apple. Unless one of them actually innovate instead of doing litigation...
Sony PS Vita sales fall shy of 3DS launch volume
Not a gamer, I suppose?
True gamers actually want mobile gaming devices. The 3DS didn't sell so hot because SURPRISE SURPRISE most gamers already had a DS-something and 3D is mostly seen as a fad.
Smartphone games are something an actual gamer will grow tired of pretty quickly before falling back to more traditional games. The ones that are truly hooked up on smartphone gaming are more of the casual gamers: old farts in the 40+ age group (who probably never put their hands on anything post-Atari, or didn't do games at all) and the small tots crowd, for which the games are pretty good as well.
Too much hype on smartphone games. It is mostly the Wii effect: most Wii owners weren't gamers either.
Stolen, remote-wiped iPhones still get owner's iMessages
I consider it a security risk as well, because WhatsApp requires you to exchange mobile numbers. I don't like to dole away my mobile number to the world+dog; MSN and BBM PINs sure, I can block annoying people if I need to and they would still be ignorant of my actual phone number.
Oh, and by the way WhatsApp is buggy on non-US numbers. It suffers from artificial stupidity, it tacks on a leading 1 on our phones! so instead of, say
WhatsApp stores the ID as
Not quite the same, though.
RIM actually blocks a stolen BlackBerry's PIN so it can't be used by thieves. Using your new Blackberry and restoring your last backup file from your nicked BB will result in all your contactlist receiving and updating their contactlist to have your new PIN.... and this is done automagically. Same thing when you switch Blackberries.
The fact that the iPhone isn't doing this shows that security isn't really Apple's concern. EPIC FAIL on Apple's part!
Sony off the hook for killing Linux on PS3
FAIL, @Barry Shitpeas
".....no gamers."
I take offense at that. I got screwed by this *because* I used my PS3 for both gaming and Linux. PS3 Linux wasn't really there for Desktop use though; the real meat on it is the CellBE processor, which coincidentally *isn't* sold outside of the PS3 since some months before Sony b0rked OtherOS.
After a year and a half of getting stuck with old games, I finally bought another PS3, a phat BC-enabled one. That one is now my gaming rig.
Oh and I'll buy an XBOX 360 when pigs fly. There's no effin' way I'll ever buy the shitbox; I don't like getting pimped for online play. But then, that's MS we're talking about.
Jimbo Wales ponders Wikipedia blackout
Wrong site to darken
However, if YouTube were to pull something like that... BOOM. I'd like Google to shut down YouTube and put up a banner saying "closed until SOPA is voted down. If SOPA passes, this closure will be PERMANENT. Call your representative NOW!"
The sheeple might live without Wikipedia, but you'll have to pry their lolcat videos out of their cold, dead hands!
Quantum computing comes closer as diamonds get spooky
FTL comms?
Why does nobody mention comms? Quantum-entangled stuff should theoretically enable us to do a real-life ansible. Now if we only could get to do FTL travel as well....
Happy birthday, Apple QuickTime
Hate isn't apple hating though.
Quicktime USED TO BE awesome when it came out; and even then, only in Macs. There was multimedia stuff that actually exploited the wider QuickTime stuff in the early 90's. But then something happened, QT on Windows sucked (same thing with iTunes), and QT suddenly became the same as realplayer, only with the fugly OSX theming stuck in it. No fullscreen mode, low resolution, etc. But realplayer at least could do fullscreen, and didn't look odd with forced OSX theming.
Sometime during the early 2000's QT became bloatware. :(
Google researchers propose fix for ailing SSL system
This basically would create a CA's CA. Another SPOF, and one that would be like OCSP: good if you have it, useless if you don't.
It would be much more easier for CAs to use real secure stuff like FIPS level 3 compliant HSMs requiring Operator Cards/Tokens to actually *sign* the stupid certs. Sure it's slower, but at least it means that some shady hacker won't get his rogue cert signed w/o physical access to the CA's site. Make some CA standard requiring this and blacklist non-conforming CA entities!
The other option is simply to use the Convergence alternative.
Open-source skills best hope for landing a good job
Actually, you got it backwards.
FOSS, even the "commie" GPLy bits create jobs. The consulting sector can now grab FOSS and offer support or tailor-made versions of these products to their clients and get paid for it instead of acting as glorified salesmen for closed & crappy products.
The GPLy FOSS merely forces you to release the source code with the software.
RIM server upgrade draws Android and iOS into the fold
Not a myth
The "intercepted" stuff works only for BIS. BES works with a fully-encrypted link down to the BES server, which makes it impossible for RIM to snoop on. Yes, we BIS users are vulnerable, but BES users aren't.
Stripper name game exposes sensitive privates on Tumblr
Fail, but not quite the FAIL implied.
I really, really HATE sites that don't let you set up your own custom security question. "My pets name" is stupid (see Paris Hilton's SideKick hack); street, teacher... Easy for anyone who knows you; and "mothers maiden name" ain't worth using for Latin Americans and Spaniards as we use *both* surnames; my mother's "maiden" surname is right there in my ID.
While I might not do these stoopid games, I wouldn't risk my security questions by doing so. I'm smarter than that!
Breaking news: Man lands on Moon!
Not new
Facebook has been doing this with their daft "top nees" feature, it's just natural for this timeline munging to permeate down news sites doinf FB.
Afghan elders refuse to be labelled pimps by number 39
41... *chuckle*
41 is related to homosexuality in Mexico. Wonder if any Mexicans are in that route? ;)
Samsung v iPhone 4S French entrenchment: 'TOTAL WAR'
if my "infringed" patents were on bullshit and/or common claims like "rounded corners" I would probably know that my patents are BS to begin with.

Army raygun to boost power with starlight de-twinkling tech
I was actually expecting the plods to use the ADS "pain ray" at the OWS raid they did on Monday. They didn't... but probably because it's still expensive!
Boffins reckon Mars quite blustery actually
No spice nearby, though...
Mozilla stirs netizens against US anti-piracy law
Google should follow suit
Make a Google doodle saying "SOPA Act - Applying Chinese Censorship in America, Act NOW!" or something like that would wake up public conciousness on a large segment of the population and would bring public opinion against this crap bill.
As it stands, only the tech bubbles know about it. It has to be known by the American public before the MAFIAA breaks the intertubez!
Equipping pre-teens with web mobes spreads beyond West
Try Mexico, then?
Most kids even in primary school have cellphones these days. Granted, they might not have smartphones, but bog-standard cellphones? Sure they have one.
Just trolling: It's OK to poke fun at Christians, says ASA
Ture for *any* dubbed movie. The Spanish dubbed version of "Grown-Ups" ruined the "maize" joke, because the Spanish word for "corn" is "maiz". So all the jokes related to using "maize" instead of "corn" turned into using "maiz" instead of "maiz".
This is the main reason why I really, REALLY hate dubbed movies.
Huge potentially inhabited water lake found on Jupiter moon

IPhone overtakes BlackBerry in the corporate world
Can ActiveSync remotely wipe a stolen handset?
Can ActiveSync apply security policies/restrictions on handsets?
... I thought so.
BB isn't just about "ooh mail sync!" but a matter of sane IT administration of mobile devices.
What's that sound? It's PC sales plummeting into abyss
At home, I actually am pondering on upgrading my PC.
But that's because I'm planning on setting one single PC with 4 VM's, and having everyone else use said VMs instead of building four separate PCs.
I'm going to do that as soon as spice comes out for ARM. The rest of our "PCs" are going to be thin ARM clients...
NASA: 2012 solar flares could DEVASTATE CITIES!
In fact, the "end" is more or less the Mayan equivalent of Y2K as their units span much more than 12 baktuns. The difference is that Y2k was caused by us humans writing last-2 digits encompassing 100 year intervals, while the Mayan Long Count was commonly written in a 5000 year period. The "common day" calendar used a 54 year cycle, which resets much quicker than the LongCount. Yet nobody was shouting "end o the world"!!!!
Apple applies to patent a SIM you can't remove
Er, my 2007 SonyEriccson W300i handset did report it was in unencrypted mode when I tried to call under such mode. Which handsets axed that reporting?
We can manage to use PAYG sims on our phones w/o problem. Giving away the GSM SIM smartcard is just plain stupid.
Smartphones rocket past consoles for mobile game sales
People seem to dismiss that those added game sales are on a demographic that wasn't interested in mobile gaming, and that "mobile gaming" for them used to mean Snake or BrickBreaker.
In other words, its the Wii all over again.
Google ices native Gmail app for BlackBerry
awww f@@k
It's how I check my gmail these days. Why Google? If they kill Google Maps I expect an uproar to follow. Ok, I hope it will...
Apple trains store bosses to

Same company that hasn't given out any dividends for more than a decade. How's that a good investment? It's only good if you sell the stock before the imminent nosedive...
If thine brown eye offend thee, blast it with a laser
Oh dear!
I've just lost the courage to go through laser surgery; that would be the "farewell to glasses" one. Yaaarrrrgh!
Disk-over-Ethernet startup trousers another $50m
iSCSI Targets can be implemented, for free, with Linux and a bog-standard x86 server. Hell, it can even be done with the plug computers, NAS appliances with custom firmware and most ARM hardware running Linux. It is also supported out of the box by most OSes, even the creaky ole winXP. Why would we want AoE at all?
Duke Nukem Forever dev slams unfair reviews
The fun thing with DNF is that most sites went on saying that it was a 90's FPS that felt dated, blah blah. I found the true problem with DNF to be that it was basically Halo with Duke-themed stuff. The things that hamper DNF are the same ones hampering Halo:
- Linear level design, can't really explore everything: Check
- Carry only two weapons: Check
- Regen health that gets you killed quickly while waiting for refill: Check
I'd add the long loading times, and the surprisingly LESS interaction with the environment compared even to older games like Doom3. Hopefully they'll fix this on a sequel.
Interesting tidbit: my 15 year-old stepson (who was porn after Duke3d came out!) actually liked DNF, sans the loading times. Maybe it isn't that much dated?
PlayStation Network downloads limited to two devices
While it is pretty bad that we'll lose the 5 PS3 activations, the ability to remotely deactivate PS3s compensates for that. I'm on my third PS3 (first one had defective BD drive, second never got past 3.15 because of the OtherOS issue) so I'd be screwed if they didn't add the deactivation feature!
Universal Music sued by its artists over downloads dosh
Oh the irony
The industry has been waving dicks everywhere trying to switch all digital purchases to "licenses". Not just the music industry; the movie & gaming industry has taken steps to do this as well. Now this seems to be backfiring because artists will now have a lot of legal precedents given to them by the labels themselves!
Now if only we could fix copyright terms as well, to lower them back to reasonable timeframes...
Disk prices double after flood - and could 'double again'
Of course...
I can extract the HDD from the external one, but buying the external one means I'm paying more for the HDD anyway. Though it might end up being cheaper than the new pricing given for HDDs in the near future...
At least you got your HDD. I also ignored the first and second warnings; now I had to settle with an external HDD as all the internals have gone poof from the channel :(
Steve Jobs named most influential game guy – ever
Millions bought a Wii, eclipsing both PS3 and Xbox360... yet a lot of 'em are now gathering dust somewhere. If you want to make a point about flash games ... those have been around for far longer than Apple's iDictatorship. Newgrounds spawned that genre, even if it was free; some actually pulled off transitioning to consoles (Alien Hominid).
If 400 million Angry Birds downloads are to count, what about err... Snake? Tetris? Brickbreaker? Mobile gaming is the gaming dev ghetto, you have to sell 'em cheap or give 'em away for free, with an ad-supported version. The only platforms where this doesn't have to hold true are the DS and PSP ones.
If Jobs and Berners-Lee are influental game guys, we might as well put up Edison right there for providing power to those consoles as well!
Minnow Android slab maker BEATS Apple in court
Now I'd like to see them slammed by a Samsung countersuit as well. That should send a clear message: if your idea of "competition" is patent trolling your competition out of the market, you WILL be punished.
Biden: The internet ain't broke, let's not fix it
You should check the House. There's something called SOPA trying to lift the Great Firewall in the US!
Why can't civil servants keep a grip on their BlackBerrys?

Clinton abscence
How... convenient. Now that COICA/PROTECT IP has resurfaced yet again as E-PARASITE/PIPA/SOPA.
Argentina stakes online claim on Falklands
Politics, mate.
It was a case of both countries waving their dicks to stop their freefalling popularity. The Junta was pretty much on a low point by 1982, so they needed to do something popular, counting on the UK not responding. What they *didn't* see was that Thatcher was also in a very, very low point and was probably going to lose to Labour, thus *also* needing to do something popular.
Ironically, the Argentines were the ones who ended up better off after the Malvinas/Falklands war; they got to overthrow the Junta, while the UK went on and voted Conservative. So the UK won the war, but ended up getting 10 more years of Thatcher, culminating in Labour turning into "NuLabour".
Ultrabook sales 'falling short of targets'
Intel? I'll pass.
Last year, we were promised on a good thing called the Smartbook, which was supposed to be a netbook, only running Linux on ARM. Then came that stupid iSlab that killed the market for the Smartbook and we're once again stuck with shit Intel stuff. I ended up buying a craptel netbook.
Now they're selling something called an 'Ultrabook' which might look nice .. except it still has Intel turds inside and coming at fruity prices ... no thanks. I'm sticking to the netbook and my full-blown laptop for now. As much as I'd like to see Apple take a beating, I'd wish it were an actual good product and not yet another WINTEL garbage computer. Meh.
Farewell then, Sony Ericsson
Good ole SE
They used to be the cool phones back in 2004-2007. My first "colorful, internetty" handset was the W300i, which was the first phone I got that actually had music playback capability, AM/FM radio and an integrated camera. That phone is almost 5 years old, and it is still working! SE however blew it because they phased out the clamshell handsets. I refused to buy a "candybar" phone, I hated big phones until I got a Blackberry. At least I could do much more stuff on that one than a standard candybar phone.
SE failed to cash in on its huge market circa 2006, the whole slew of smartphones and the iBones took over its main market overnight. Sad for them.

Marko confirms Red Bull will be Renault powered in 2015
Helmut Marko with Renault's Remi Taffin Red Bull will definitely be powered by Renault in 2015, Helmut Marko insists, amid reports that emerged at the team's home race suggesting the world champions are considering splitting with its current engine supplier and building its own turbo V6. According to Marko, it's not as far-fetched as it sounds, 'We have a lot of very skilled companies (in Austria) concerning engines.' 'Pankl is about 30 kilometres from here,' explained Marko, referring to Renault's existing turbocharger partner, 'and AVL is 70 kilometres (away).' Asked specifically by Martin Brundle if Red Bull is considering supplying itself with a Formula 1 engine, Marko answered: 'You...

Capital Contradictions
by Clint – July 5, 2010
A brilliant animation set to a brief lecture by Professor David Harvey on the roots of the global economic crisis. Animation provided by RSA Animate. Theoretical foundations provided by Karl Marx.
Masters of the Universe
by Clint – September 16, 2009
I cast one long Marxist gaze at this New York Times article, and I found the universe aligned with Karl's historical straight edge.
In the opening paragraph, the writers explain that Obama wants the financial industry to accept new government regulations aimed at preventing a repeat crisis. The president's push follows recent news that the financial Masters of the Universe have changed their ways precious little since last September, when their uber-Capitalist greed deflated the nation's economy.

Bladder Infection - What Do You Know About A Bladder Infection And Turmeric?
What Do You Know About A Bladder Infection And Turmeric?
If you have a bladder infection and turmeric has been recommended by someone, the reason is due to the natural anti-bacterial activity of curcumin, a compound found in the plant's rhizomes.?? If you have frequent infections of this type, there are several things that you can do to help reduce the frequency.?? First, you probably need to drink more plain water.
Urine cleans bacteria out of the
urinary tract
.?? Drinking water, of course, keeps the body hydrated and usually increases the number of times that you urinate every day.?? Other beverages are actually dehydrating.?? You may feel as though your thirst has been quenched, but if you pay attention to how many other beverages you drink in a day's time, you will realize that they are not hydrating your body, at least not much.

Eight ounces of cranberry juice every day helps reduce the risk of
bladder infection
and turmeric can help, too.?? Cranberry juice increases the acidity in the bladder and urinary tract.?? This acidic environment is not ideal for bacteria to grow.??
The way that the bacteria get into the bladder is by way of the urinary tract.?? Women have a shorter
urinary tract
than men, so they generally have more
bladder infection
s.?? Things that contribute to infections include tub-baths, hot tubs and douching.?? Wearing tight underwear that does allow moisture to evaporate contributes, as well.
There have been no specific studies concerning bladder infection and turmeric, because infections of that type are easy to treat with traditional antibiotics.?? However, taking antibiotics on a regular basis causes a variety of health problems.?? Taking a little turmeric every day supports healthy immune system function.
Studies that are currently ongoing concern the benefit of curcumin for treating Alzheimer's and various kinds of cancer.?? Those are diseases that are not easy to treat, with the drugs that are currently available.??
A daily dose of curcumin may reduce your risk of both of those diseases, as well as heart disease, arthritis and other age-related diseases.?? But, the antioxidant must be protected from stomach acid or it will quickly break down into an inactive substance and in order to increase absorption, piperine should be included.

Piperine is an antioxidant found in black pepper.?? It enhances the absorption of amino acids and other nutrients.?? It is included in some of the better multi-nutritional supplements for that reason and also because it has anti-inflammatory activity of its own.
When a person has a bladder infection and turmeric is suggested, it may be due to the anti-inflammatory, as well as the anti-bacterial activity of the plant.?? Inflammation is present whenever there is an infection.?? But chronic inflammation is a big problem for many people.?? That type of inflammation can only be addressed with natural anti-inflammatories, like curcumin.
There are some multi-nutritional supplements that contain dozens of natural anti-inflammatories, as well as your basic vitamins and minerals.?? Now that you know a little more about the connection between a
bladder infection
and turmeric, you might want to learn how to choose a good daily supplement. Visit my website today to learn about a multi-nutritional supplement I've discovered that I'd like to share with you.

Recent Southwest reviews
"This house was perfect for me and my girlfriends. It was immaculate, charming and just a short walk to downtown and the beach. Just a short drive from Chicago--but it seems like a world away. Description and photos are accurate; but you will feel the designer ambiance more so in person. My first time in the bungalow was over the July 4th Holiday and it is a memory I will cherish forever. Can't wait to go back. Great for a small family or a group of girlfriends."Guest: Debbie Date of Stay: February 2014 Review Submitted: April 7, 2014View listing
"We come back every fall for a girls' weekend, and each time we find more things to love about this property. This year, the owners added a hot tub on the patio, just about two steps from the master bedroom. Heaven! This is simply one of the best VRBO properties I've ever stayed at. The rates are beyond reasonable, especially considering the caliber of amenities you get in return. The owners are great to work with and so friendly. Plus, you get to stay in a place that could easily be in Architectural Digest. Can't recommend Breeze highly enough! P.S. The raspberry ale at Greenbush Brewing in Sawyer is fantastic!"Guest: LKO Date of Stay: October 2014 Review Submitted: October 8, 2014View listing
"This property was accurately portrayed and even more beautiful than photos show especially for gardening aficionadas! Lots of room for all our family to gather - inside or out for games, barbeques, or just to relax on the spacious front deck for the breathtaking views and evening sunsets. We could watch the July 3rd fireworks in South Haven right from the property's beach and enjoyed the July 4th parade in Saugatuck, both so close by. Also took the grandchildren to Holland's Dutch Village. Each town had farmers markets, music on the greens, and just minutes we were lucky to catch the town of Glenn's famous pancake breakfast that was yummy. Glenn also has wonderful homemade pizza and sides at their general store which we used to cater a huge family reunion and our grandchildren loved their town playground. We were fortunate to have gorgeous weather, gorgeous sunsets and many wonderful days down on the beach to collect rocks and driftwood, frolic in the waves of Lake Michigan and walk the shoreline. Evenings by the fire pit roasting hotdogs and marshmallows topped off our perfect days. We even rented the next door little cottage so we could have extended family members visit for overnights which made everything all the more special. A huge thanks to Joe and Marilyn Darby for their kind hospitality and sharing of such a priceless gem of beautiful "Pure Michigan"."Guest: Kathy & Mike Birke Date of Stay: June 2014 Review Submitted: July 21, 2014View listing
"Family, friends and I stayed at "Mile 0" for a week and we all loved it! The house is beautiful, comfortable and stocked well beyond expectations and the location on Big Crooked was perfect for us. We spent hours on the patio and at night near the fire pit just relaxing, laughing, listening to music on the stereo system and watching the boats and skiers go by. Everyone commented on how clear the lake is compared to other places and all hope to come back to "Mile O" another time. I could not have been happier with the experience!"Guest: Eileen Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 30, 2014View listing

Central bankers, as everyone now knows, are rascals and scalawags. Gideon Gono is no exception.
Gono, if you haven't heard of him, is Robert Mugabe's right-hand man. And Robert Mugabe is the No. 1 man in Zimbabwe, an African country with a real "riches to rags" story. It was one of the wealthiest and safest countries in Africa when it was run by Ian Smith in the '70s. But the meddlers and world-improvers couldn't leave well enough alone. They helped put Mugabe in power. Since then, the place has gone to hell.
Gideon Gono, 53 years old, lives in a 112-room mansion in Harare. He says he doesn't drink, sleeps only four hours a night and runs regularly. He is known as "Mr. Inflation" for his Olympian efforts to increase the country's money supply. He did this the old-fashioned way — by printing pieces of paper will lots of zeros on them.
But there is something heroically imbecilic about the man. While most economists hedge and weasel, Mr. Gono went boldly, recklessly forward — where no central banker had dared to go, at least not since the worst days of the Weimar Republic. Mr. Gono stood tall… a colossus of error… an Olympus of bunglement.
It is easy to criticize the chief of Zimbabwe's national bank. In fact, it is hard not to criticize him. Keynes warned that "there is a lot of ruin" in a nation. Mr. Gono's contribution to economics is to show how much ruin there is. That… and proving that the laws of supply and demand still apply to money.
Between August 2007 and June 2008, the Zimbabwean money supply increased 20 million times. Naturally, this led to the kind of spectacular increases in consumer prices that modern economists had seen only on newsreels. Consumer price inflation was clocked at 2,000,000%. Six months later, it sped up to 230,000,000%.
Of course, Mr. Gono rolled out all the usual inflation-fighting measures — all, that is, except for the one that works. Mr. Gono personally went around, found shop owners who had illegally raised prices and had them arrested. Bank withdrawals were limited to 500,000 Zimbabwe dollars per day. If you wanted to buy 2 kg of sugar, for example, you had to stand in line for four days at an automated teller. But at those rates, you could stand in line at the automatic tellers every day for eternity and never get enough money to buy a drink of water.
We salute Mr. Gono. He may be a moron, but at least he's a useful one. Better than another bad theory, he has provided a bad example. In an age when central bankers all over the world are trying to avoid a decline in the cost of living, Mr. Gono has proven that there are worse things.
But despite Gono himself, Gonoism seems to be gaining admirers in the rest of the world, because the alternatives don't seem to work. Keynesianism, for example. The Keynesians say that when people stop squandering their money, the feds have to step in and squander it for them. Right now practically every government in the world is promising huge new spending programs. Deficits be damned!
But will "Keynes on steroids," as one journalist put it, work? There's no evidence of it in the record. America tried it in the '30s. Japan tried it in the '90s. In neither case were the results favorable.
Milton Friedman saw the problem with Keynesianism — it led to rising prices… and then stagflation. He pointed to the lever marked "monetary policy." Give that a pull, he said. Just make sure the economy has enough money; everything else will take care of itself. Maggie Thatcher and Ronald Reagan both pulled on the monetary policy lever. And in the recession of 2001-02, Alan Greenspan yanked it so hard the handle practically broke off. Milton Friedman was still alive at the time and actually approved of Greenspan's handiwork, saying that he had spared the economy a worse recession, or words to that effect.
But now we face an even worse recession. And central bankers are running out of ammunition to fight it. The U.S. Fed's key rate is effectively zero. His resources are "obviously limited," said Bernanke, in a speech in Austin, Texas. But then, while the Fed can't push interest rates below zero, "the second arrow in the Federal Reserve's quiver — the provision of liquidity — remains effective," he said. One option is for the Fed to buy "longer-term Treasury or agency securities on the open market in substantial quantities," Bernanke said.
Gonoism, in other words.
But wait… This just in:
We have it from our usually unreliable source in Washington that Gideon Gono has been called in to aid the Obama administration. In secret talks, Gono has agreed to replace the outgoing Ben Bernanke, who is said to be going to work as a helicopter pilot. Gono will take over the Fed. And a new bill has already been designed — our source was able to sneak out a copy of the new note — for $1 million. That's Gideon Gono's picture on it.
According to reports, Gono insisted on getting his face on the bill as part of the deal. "Dead presidents are a dime a dozen," he is said to have remarked. "And this is just the beginning; we can add zeros later."
Asked what he thought of the worldwide credit crash, Gono replied:
"I sit back and see the world today crying over the recent credit crunch, becoming hysterical about something that has not lasted for even a year, and I have been living with it for 10 years. My country has had to go for the past decade without credit… Out of the necessity to exist, to ensure my people survive, I had to find myself printing money. I found myself doing extraordinary things that aren't in the textbooks. Then the IMF asked the U.S. to please print money. I began to see the whole world now in a mode of practicing what they have been saying I should not."
In Gono we trust. Our economy is in a terrible mess. We need inflation; only Gono seems to know how to get it.

Toronto, ON (SportsNetwork.com) - Kevin Correia spun six-plus strong innings and the Minnesota Twins grabbed a 4-0 win over the Toronto Blue Jays in the second of a three-game set.
Correia (3-7) gave up six hits and a walk with one strikeout, while Brian Duensing, Jared Burton and Glen Perkins each tossed a scoreless frame to polish off the shutout for the Twins, who had lost four of five coming into the game.
"I think once he got going he got his confidence," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said of Correia. "Great performance by him."
Brian Dozier hit a two-run home run while Danny Santana had two hits, drove in one and scored once in the win.
J.A. Happ (5-3) was tagged for four runs -- three earned -- on six hits in just 3 2/3 innings for the Blue Jays, who have lost three of their last four with the three losses all coming by way of a shutout.
"I felt like I was locating for the most part. It doesn't really matter ... all that matters is the results," Happ said.
Minnesota got all the runs it needed in its first turn at the bat, as Santana led off the game with a walk and Dozier clubbed a pitch over the wall in left for his 14th home run and a 2-0 lead.
Toronto loaded the bases with one out in the second and Jose Reyes hit a grounder up the middle that appeared headed for the outfield, but Correia threw the glove behind his back and snagged the ball, going home for a force out. Melky Cabrera then grounded out to end the frame.
In the fourth, Minnesota put its first three men on base, but the next two batters struck out. Santana then hit a chopper to third that Juan Francisco barehanded, but his throw to first was way off and two runs came home for a 4-0 lead.
Correia gave up a leadoff single to Dioner Navarro to start the seventh, prompting Duensing to come on in relief. Reyes hit a two-out single to put a runner in scoring position, but Cabrera lined out to third to end the inning.
Burton tossed a 1-2-3 eighth, while Perkins worked around a two-out walk to finish the game.
Correia had lost two of his previous three starts coming into the game ...
Minnesota went 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position and stranded 10,
while Toronto was 0-for-6 with RISP and left eight ... Happ fell to 1-1 in
three games against the Twins ... Correia improved to 2-3 in seven games
against Toronto.

Sooners' loss puts them in the waiting game
Yet with four timeouts in his pocket, Kruger didn't use one during Iowa State's spree. The rabid Iowa State fan base kept its team juiced, and momentum never left the Cyclones.
"You can always look back, say, liked to have made this shot or liked to have had a timeout here, liked to have run something differently," Kruger said. "No question, that's always going through your mind."
So now the Sooners wait, and their attitude was alarming. Both Osby and point guard Sam Grooms mentioned that at least OU was headed for some kind of post-season tournament. Hey, guys. The NIT is not an option. Not on any real basis. The Sooners haven't been to the NCAAs since 2009; it's time that drought ended.
"I think we did enough to be able to be in," Grooms said.
I agree. I think the Sooners are in. But now they're on a two-game losing streak, thanks to that ridiculous loss at TCU. The Sooners have given the committee reason to pause.
"Obviously, a lot of it depends on upsets and other games," Kruger said. "But I'd like to think this group's deserved an opportunity."
But only for how they played most of the season. Not for the way they played against Iowa State.

Down and under-achieving: Australian athletes left behind in medals table as they are overtaken by Britain, Kazakhstan and North Korea
It may have taken six days, but Great Britain's gold medal rush is well and truly underway following two days of successes.
The whole nation rejoiced in glorious wins for the women's rowing pair of Heather Stanning and Helen Glover, and our cycling legend Bradley Wiggins in the time trial yesterday.
And there have been champagne moments for shooter Peter Wilson and canoe pair Etienne Stott and Tim Baillie today.
As we look forward to more medals in the days to come, it will bring us even more delight that old enemy Australia's Olympics are already unravelling into disappointment and recrimination.
Swimmer Emily Seebohm reacts with bewilderment after finishing second in the 100m backstroke, just one of a string of disappointing results for Australia in the first week of the London Olympics
James Magnussen looks horrified as he glances up at the scoreboard to see he has lost to America's Nathan Adrian by just 0.01 seconds in the 100m freestyle final
The Aussies - such a powerhouse in recent Olympics - lie 15th in the medal table with just one gold to their name, ten places behind Britain and behind the likes of Kazakhstan, Hungary, Ukraine and North Korea.
A number of near-misses in events the Australian team were expecting to win have led pundits and a very sleep-deprived public Down Under to write off London 2012 as the 'Silver Games'.
Swimmer James Magnussen was seen as a dead cert for gold and certainly wasn't shy in talking up his chances before the Games, but he was pipped to gold by the agonising margin of 0.01 seconds in the men's 100m freestyle final.
Magnussen was ashen-faced afterwards and his night didn't get any better when Australia finished fourth and outside the medals in the 4 x 100m freestyle relay.
The losses came as a shock to an Aussie public well used to seeing the likes of Ian Thorpe and Grant Hackett dominating in the pool.
Magnussen was magnanimous afterwards: 'A lot was riding on my results here, and to have missed out twice is pretty shattering.
'I guess having a successful young career, I just felt pretty much bullet proof coming into these Olympics and it's very humbling.'
'Humbling' is certainly a word that has appeared in a fair few Australian newspapers over the past few days, with the post-mortem already underway.
Stephanie Rice is considering her future in the sport of swimming after missing out on any medals in her two events
The gloomy mood of introspection continued with twin disappointments for two gold medal 'bankers' in the women's swimming events.
Stephanie Rice is already a double Olympic champion and a household name in Australia, but she called her future into question during a teary interview following the 200m and 400m Individual Medley finals, in which she failed to medal.
And a choked Emily Seebohm, who ended up with 100m backstroke silver, gave an interesting glimpse into a modern athlete's mind when she blamed social media for making her complacent.
'I don't know, I just felt like I didn't really get off [social media] and get into my own mind. When people start telling you you are going to win gold, you are going to start believing it.'
We're not even half-way through the Games but already Australian commentators are beginning to conclude that it isn't going to be their year.
In Beijing, they took 14 golds and in Athens 2004 took home 17.
The Sydney Morning Herald compared the forensic examination after the races to CSI: Australian Swimming, with Thorpe, Magnussen's idol, saying his curled hand on the touch made the difference.
Magnussen shot straight back: 'I think I got a pretty good touch' and a heated debate ensued.
And it's not just in the pool where the Australians have been underachieving. The double sculls rowing pair of David Crayshay and Scott Brennan - the defending champions - failed even to make the final.
The highly-fancied beach volleyball duo of Nat Cook and Tamsin Hinchley had endured a torrid start, losing their first three matches.
Lagging behind: As of Thursday evening, Australia were ten places behind Great Britain in the Olympic medal table, in 15th
Australian beach volleyball player Natalie Cook looks annoyed after losing a set against Austria
Her partner Tamsin Hinchley can only stare at the sand after another point goes begging
There have been some successes - the 4 x 100m freestyle relay girls delivered gold, the women's hockey side have gone goal-crazy and there are many tantalising duels with Great Britain to come in the track cycling.
But naturally the focus is on the negative in a country with such sky-high sporting expectations.
The Paralympian Michael Milton blasted the faltering athletes in a newspaper column today, calling them 'too soft'
He wrote: 'I fear our elite athletes are molly-coddled, encased in a protective bubble full of experts and minders.'
Before adding romantically: 'Much of Australia's sporting success was built on the back of people who lived and learned the hard way, people who learned their craft with a cricket stump, a golf ball and a corrugated water tank.'
And even away from the Olympic arenas there was further ignominy for the Australians last night when rower Joshua Booth was arrested while drunk for damaging a shopfront.
A distinctly unimpressed chef de mission Nick Green told a press conference this morning that there had been an 'unfortunate incident' in which the men's eight crew member, 21, was alleged to have smashed two windows of a restaurant.
He then fainted and sustained a head injury while in custody, waking up in hospital.
Joshua Booth (centre) was arrested in the early hours of this morning after damaging a London shopfront
The news made big headlines in Australia this morning at the worst possible time for the team's morale.
Mr Green, and 23 million compatriots, will be hoping for a drastic change of fortune in the days to come.

Dad's Love of Fast Car's
- Tuesday, September 02, 2003
My father always loved fast cars. Taking advantage of the empty roads one morning, he accelerated down a wide-open stretch.
Unfortunately, a young police officer was waiting at the other end, and Dad was flagged down.
He greeted the officer with a cheery "Good morning."
"And a good morning to you, Wing Commander," replied the officer... "Having trouble taking off??"

WEDNESDAY, July 20 (HealthDay News) -- The overall measured and stated energy content of restaurant foods is accurate, but there is considerable discrepancy between stated and measured energy content for individual food items, according to a study published in the July 20 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Lorien E. Urban, Ph.D., from Tufts University in Boston, and colleagues assessed the accuracy of the stated energy contents of foods purchased from restaurants. Between January and June 2010, dietary energy in 269 randomly selected total food items and 242 unique foods from 42 quick-serve and sit-down restaurants were calculated using a validated bomb calorimetry technique. The difference between restaurant-stated and laboratory measured energy contents, corrected for standard metabolizable energy conversion factors, was the main outcome measure.
The investigators found that, overall, there was no significant difference between absolute stated and measured energy contents, but there was variation in the stated energy content relative to the measured energy content of individual foods. The measured energy contents of 19 percent of the food items were at least 100 kcal/portion higher than their stated energy levels. For the 10 percent of foods with the highest excess energy contents in an initial sampling, there was an average excess measured energy content of 289 kcal/portion compared to the stated contents. The average excess energy content was 258 kcal/portion for 13 foods measured on a second analysis. There was a significant difference between the stated and measured energy contents, with foods with lower stated energy contents containing higher measured energy contents than stated, and vice versa.
"Stated energy contents of restaurant foods were accurate overall. However, there was substantial inaccuracy for some individual foods," the authors write.
One of the study authors disclosed financial ties to GSK Consumer Healthcare.
