I know that whenever somebody makes something and we want to use it, it is better to contribute to them and pay for it. But I have nothing to hide: I have used fonts illegally a few times. Is it possible that someday somebody will contact me because of this? As fonts are sold in various online shops can they determine from where I bought it, or that I did not buy it at all?
It's almost redundant to point out that violating someone's copyright is not only unethical, it is illegal. And, yes, it is certainly possible that someone might "contact" you on the subject, depending on the circumstances. If you have no license to use a particular font, but you gained financially by using it, you don't have a defense. "Possible" is not the same as "likely," however, so you probably don't need to move to a new city and change your name (not right away, anyway).
It is better to pay for something you use, not just for the person who created it but for you, too. Consider that you would not have asked this question if you didn't feel uneasy about it.
That's my answer. What follows are my opinions.
Artists and innovators put a lot of themselves into what they do. Copyright and patent laws are there so that they can receive a decent exchange for their work and not be ripped off. The fact that anyone can copy a book, a font or a piece of music makes it easy to ignore or forget that the person who created it has a family and pays rent or a mortgage. A font is usually a one-person effort; a good font takes hundreds of hours of painstaking work. Buying a license is the least one can do to give back for the opportunity to benefit from it.
For better or worse, we live in an era where it's incredibly easy to steal little bits of someone's livelihood without apparent consequence. It is an unfortunate fact of human nature that when we do something we know is wrong, we justify it by doing it again. Pretty soon it becomes a habit. It can become a compulsion. "Everyone else does it" helps us to justify it some more. Peace of mind and a happy life are easier to attain when we don't do things that we have to justify.
I know this isn't the answer you are looking for, but I think you are asking the wrong question.
There is more to sustainability than just "can I get away with this?". If you are planning to make a career in design you will need to get paid for your efforts. By not legally purchasing a product that is commercially available, you are tacitly endorsing a culture that rips-off creators.
Whether you see immediate side-effects or not, it is not in your best interest to promote a culture that devalues your chosen line of work.
A couple years ago a publishing company in the UK was beset upon by the Business Software Association for unlicensed use of fonts in their titles. A former and disgruntled employee gave the tip. The publishing company had to pay well into the six figures in fines as a result of the audit, far more expensive than if they just paid for the licenses up front.
Fonts can be very expensive despite them not being nearly as prominent as Photoshop (though unarguably more ubiquitous than Photoshop), but they should be treated like any other software license. If you use a version of a font that someone sells, you should pay for the licenses needed to create and distribute your work.
With any copyrighted work, it is easier to ask permission than beg forgiveness, especially when the copyright holder is openly offering permission in exchange for something simple like a fee and/or a credit line.
First off I agree with Alan and other posters answers regarding the ethical and right thing to do. As a designer who is paid for creative work it's just wrong to not respect others creative work.
With that being said the actual legalities of it depend on what country you live in but in the U.S. most of the actual federal laws that are punishable criminally are mostly geared toward sound and video recording copyright infringement.
If you did not reproduce the font and distribute it you have not broken any U.S. criminally punishable law. If you only used a font in your work that you were not licensed to use then you can not be punished under the law. If you distributed the actual font with your work then maybe you could be punished.
You can be held civilly responsible and get sued by the copyright owner and you have also put your client at risk because they could be sued as well. I have a clause in my contract that regarding the use of copyrighted or unlicensed material that my client can't be held responsible for something I provide them and that I can't be held responsible for something they provided me.
Also the answer to your question depends on what your definition of illegal is. Does illegal mean the police can lock you up or does it mean that you can be held civilly and financially responsible.
Worst Case Scenario
Other License Violations
There are lots of other issues with font license violations than simply not paying for a license. Even when you purchase a font sometimes the license prohibits you from using it in certain commercial works like in a logo but allow you to use it for other printed materials. Most fonts prohibit web embedding or converting to a different format for web embedding.
Some fonts allow you to send a copy of the font to a printer for the sole use of reproducing the work you created but some strictly prohibit this.
Bottom Line
Respect the intellectual property rights of other creatives just as you would want your rights respected. This is what separates design professionals from your clients cousin who knows a kid down the street with a copy of Photoshop.
The consequences of using an unlicensed font is the same as the consequences of using any unlicensed software. It's an intellectual property violation.
The penalties for IP violations range from:
Given the latter exceeds the total economic worth of the planet, one would assume that's the upper limit, but you never know with the likes of the RIAA.
The reality is you will get in trouble if a) you get caught and b) there is someone out there with the resources to sue you over it.
In the world of type face design, this has happened. Ad agencies and design firms have been sued for using typefaces in ad campaigns for clients without seeking and paying for the proper licenses.
So that's all the legal stuff.
On a simple professional level...as one designer (you) to another (the typeface designer) you should pay for the font. That's how more fonts get created. A font is a tool for you to do your job and, as such, you should value it, take care of it, and obviously charge enough for your own work to afford the tools of your trade.

Can you please advise which distribution to follow when your skewness is 0.28 and Kurtosis value is 51. Since it's leptokurtic and positively skewed I would like to fit distribution and also wanted to calculate distribution value at each time "t" just like we calculate Z score for Normal Distribution.
That can be a somewhat difficult question to answer, given that the context may yield different distributions. Nevertheless, I think that you could try to fit the best distribution algorithmically. For instance, lately I found this package at Matlab file exchange:
Finding the best distribution that fits the data Link
Hope that this helps. Let me know whether it worked for you!
I think the best answer is to test different distributions with your specific data set and see which fits the data the best... skewness and kurtosis are just a small piece of information , there is still a good deal of information we don't know and won't have with out having the data set in front of us

Let $p(z)=2z^4-2z^3+2z^2+7$. I'm trying to determine the number of roots of $p(z)$ that lie inside $\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<2\}$
I used Rouche's theorem and I'm trying to find find $f(z)$ such that $|f(z)-g(z)|<|f(z)|$.
Let $f(z)=z^4$, $g(z)=2z^4-2z^3+2z^2+7$. Let $|z|=2$.
I get
$|f(z)-g(z)|\\=|-z^4+2z^3-2z^2-7|\\ \le|z|^4+2|z|^3+2|z|^2+|7|=47\not\le z^4=16$
But if I let $f(z)=2z^4$, $g(z)=2z^4-2z^3+2z^2+7$ then I get $|f(z)-g(z)|\\=|2z^3-2z^2-7|\\ \le2|z|^3+2|z|^2+|7|=31\le 2z^4=32.$
So is the number of roots of $p(z)$ that lie inside $\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<2\}$, $4$? If so, whats the difference between $f(z)=2z^4$ and $f(z)=z^4$?

MCGREGOR (March 5, 2013)--Plans for a bigger and better future were unveiled to citizens of McGregor Tuesday night, at the town's annual Chamber of Commerce banquet.
For six months, city leaders in McGregor have been working on something they call "Vision 2030."
It's a guide for the small town of 5,000 people, mapping out economic strategy for the next 17 years.
Vision 2030 maps out some striking new developments for McGregor. The biggest development is something city leaders are calling "The Exchange."
The city recently purchased a 3 acre tract of land off of 3rd street for $300,000. It's a recognizable area in McGregor, the land houses an old agricultural co-op building that was built in the 1940's.
The city plans on dishing out $2,000,000 to restore the old building. Upon completion, the building will serve as a multi-purpose community center, a farmers market, and will be used for concerts, banquets, and tourism.
Chamber of Commerce President, John Sneed, says "The Exchange" will transform downtown McGregor.
"We have a lot of growth coming in right and left in our community, and we wanted to be proactive with our future," Sneed said.
"We want to address our community's need for growth; we'd rather do it now than later."
Another big facet to Vision 2030 will come from McGregor's 9,000 acre industrial park.
Space-X currently owns 1,000 acres inside the park. City leaders want to certify 3,000-5,000 acres inside the park and make it a mega industrial park.
City Manager Kevin Evans says it's the first step in bringing more jobs to town.
"We sit between Bell County and McLennan County. The population base of the two combined regions is pretty close to 800,000 people," Evans said.
"That means something to large employers who want to move in."

The suspension is the latest delay to the second round of talks and comes as the United Nations says one million people have been displaced by the ongoing, 100-day-old conflict.
A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry says South Sudan troops only began stopping and inspecting U.N. convoys after weapons and ammunition were found in a UN convoy bound for Bentiu early this month.
A new corporate sports league seeks to promote peace in the young country by bringing together sports fans to play in friendly football matches.
The statement released by 10 countries, including the United States, and the European Union comes as the U.N. says the number of people forced from their homes in 100 days of conflict in South Sudan has topped one million.
An official in Jonglei state says 12 civilians were killed and thousands have fled their homes as clashes continue in Duk County between opposition and government forces.
Uganda has taken in nearly 87,000 refugees from South Sudan, the most of any of the conflict-wracked country's neighbors, and MSF is racing to help the refugees before the rains set in.
Germany's Minister for Cooperation and Development, Gerd Mueller, says during a visit to Juba that the aid will be available immediately, and vows not to abandon the South Sudanese people.
Two prosecution witnesses testify that they have no evidence to implicate four political detainees in what the government says was a bid to topple the government of President Salva Kiir in December.
The funds will be used to help alleviate a looming food security crisis and help South Sudanese who fled to neighboring countries, among other critical issues.
The hearing of four political detainees accused of being part of a coup plot in December is adjourned 24 hours after prosecution witnesses failed to show up in court.
On crutches, missing limbs and with bandaged wounds, more than 100 soldiers block a main road in Juba to demand months of back-pay.
A previous request from the government for the seven politicians, whom a judge in Juba wants to question about their alleged role in triggering the violence in South Sudan, was not acted on by the talks' mediators, IGAD.
Testifying for the prosecution, the head of external security says he has "solid evidence" that the four men on trial were part of a plot to seize power in a coup.
Ending the fighting and allow supply truck to alleviate the suffering of thousands of civilians, officials say.
The capital of the main oil-producing state in South Sudan has changed hands five times since fighting broke out in mid-December.
The presiding judge denies a prosecution request for another adjournment, saying it would deny the four defendants their right to expeditious justice.
Humanitarian aid agency Medair has launched a pre-emptive vaccination campaign against the water-borne illness, trying to beat the onset of the rainy season.
The U.N. agency says it has been forced to use the most costly form of emergency food delivery as fighting and other obstacles prevent it from getting to people in dire need of help by road or river.
The announcement of the Cabinet changes comes eight months after President Salva Kiir fired his entire cabinet shutting down several ministries, citing austerity measures and the need to streamline the government.
But presidential spokesman Ateny Wek Ateny says some reporters are brought in to National Security offices to be given "advice because some journalists are very irresponsible."
The funds, from Japan's Official Development Assistance fund, come with few strings attached but cannot be used for military purposes, Ambassador Takeshi Akamatsu says.
US Ambassador to Juba Susan Page calls the three-month-old conflict in South Sudan "a real tragedy" and urges the warring sides to settle their differences around the negotiating table.
Ghanaian force commander also insists that the weapons were not being sent to rebel forces.
Lead mediator indicates forces should be deployed by mid-April, but did not specify numbers
A day after four detainees accused of plotting to overthrow the government appear in a Juba court, a judge adjourns their hearing and orders seven other political figures to return from Kenya and appear in court.
A legal expert says Information Minister Michael Makuei's assertion that broadcasting an interview with members of the anti-government forces violates South Sudan's penal code, is untrue.
Four former SPLM members are among 11 political figures who were taken into custody shortly after fighting erupted in Juba on Dec. 15, in what President Salva Kiir said was a failed bid to oust him
Demonstrators at rallies in Juba and Wau accuse the U.N. Mission in South Sudan (UNMISS) of colluding with rebels and of starting the fighting that continues to rake the country.
Unless the hundreds of thousands displaced by months of conflict are able to return home and plant crops, there will be shortages of staple foods, the World Food Programme and Food and Agriculture Organization say.
UNMISS calls the incident a regrettable mistake and says the U.N. is sending a high-level team to investigate how it happened.
Team of three South Sudan officials handed out booklets in Nairobi called "The truth about the aborted coup of Dr. Riek Machar and his group."
South Sudanese officials raise the toll from five to 24 but play down the gunfire reported in Juba overnight as the work of rogue elements who are trying to spark panic.
Clashes between soldiers at the same barracks where fighting in December triggered nearly three months of conflict around the country were quickly brought under control, but raised tensions in Juba.
The camp is a joint venture of the U.N. Mission in South Sudan, the government and the Chinese embassy, and is expected to be ready in six weeks.
UNICEF says half of the nearly 900,000 people displaced by the conflict in South Sudan are children, many of whom have endured traumatic injuries in the fighting in the young country.
Government negotiators say the talks are on the brink of failure and blame Intergovernmental Authority on Development (IGAD) mediators, while opposition complains the talks have moved too slowly.
Members of Congress and a leading rights advocate urge the United States to enlist the help of top officials, including President Barack Obama and his predecessor, George W. Bush, to press the warring sides in South Sudan to make peace.
Children displaced by fighting are living in a United Nations compound in Juba, the capital city
South Sudan in Focus (SSIF) is a 30-minute English-language broadcast and Internet program covering rapidly changing developments in South Sudan and the East Africa region.
South Sudan in Focus airs at 7:30 pm in Juba (1630 UTC) and can be heard on FM stations throughout South Sudan, on shortwave, and on VOA's 24-hour channel in Nairobi at 8:30 pm. The program is hosted by John Tanza in Washington D.C., and a network of stringers around South Sudan, and reporters in Washington, D.C., produce the stories that are heard on South Sudan in Focus.

I would like to ask if there is any Nuclear process which can be used to produce a wireless power ?
Is there any nuclear process can be radiate to the environment with no harm to human beings?
I would like to ask if there is any Nuclear process which can be used to produce a wireless power ?
Is there any nuclear process can be radiate to the environment with no harm to human beings?
How can I use the photo electric effect with some high Intensity radiation ?
There are no nuclear processes that can be used directly to transmit power. With any nuclear system the power is first removed from the reactor as heat. This heat is then used to drive a turbine which in turn drives a generator. This way, part of the power (less than 30%) from the nuclear process is converted into electricity, which is then transmitted to the users. The rest of the power is waste heat.
Because of the conversion from nuclear to heat to electricity, we end up using only those transmission systems that are economical for electricity. Unfortunately, wireless transmission is not practical with present technology, and will never be practical for direct transmission to end users. It may become practical for transmission of large amounts of power in a narrow beam - especially from space to earth.
Any radiation that directly escapes the nuclear reactor, without being converted to heat, is potentially dangerous, as it consists of high energy particles or radiation. With fission reactors most of the danger comes from the long lasting fission products. Fusion reactors generate copious neutrons which are dangerous if not absorbed, and can also make the reactor vessel radioactive. However, the total radiation from a fusion reactor is far lower than from a fission reactor.
Are you thinking of a nuclear powered electric generator or the electromagnetic pulse from fission as a source? If it's the former then it's known as Wifi.

Most women facing gynecological cancer surgery have some fear and anxiety. This sheet will answer common questions and tell you what to expect. This is general information on what will happen before, during and after your surgery. Everyone is different. The care you get from your doctor and nurses will change to meet your needs. Please ask your health care team questions whenever you need to.
Before your surgery you will need a physical exam. This will be done in the hospital or doctor's office. A nurse or other medical person will ask you questions about your health. You will also be asked about allergies. Don't think any information or question is too small or embarrassing. It is best to let your medical team know about any concerns you have and to ask questions.
You will have tests done to check your blood. Your doctor may also order a chest x-ray and electrocardiogram (EKG). During this visit, you will be given instructions about what you'll need to do before your surgery.
It's a good idea to ask your surgeon about any medicines you are taking. Some medicines cause bleeding during surgery. Most of these medicines are listed below. If you are taking any of these, talk to your surgeon to see if you should stop taking them before your surgery:
Also, if you have any questions about your insurance coverage, feel free to speak with a hospital representative or your surgeon's staff during this visit.
Before your surgery, you will be asked to sign a consent form. This form makes sure that you understand the surgery and its risks.
Your surgeon will explain the surgery and its risks. Read your consent form carefully. It will have the following information:
When you sign this form, it means you fully understand the type of surgery you will be having, as well as its risks and benefits.
It is a good idea to have a friend or family member with you on the day of surgery. This person can support you. You may not need physical help right after your surgery, but having someone you feel close to can make it easier. During your hospital stay, if you want a friend or relative to stay after visiting hours, talk with your nurse.
You will need to have someone with you when you leave the hospital. Be sure to get a friend or relative to be with you at the time of discharge.
You should pack such items as:
Since there is not much room to keep your belongings in the Ambulatory Surgery Unit (APU), they should be left with your support person or brought to the hospital after your surgery.
You should not wear any jewelry, makeup or contact lenses. Do not bring credit cards, cash, or checkbook. Eyeglasses may be needed to read and sign forms. Dental bridges or dentures can be worn and removed just before your surgery.
One day before your surgery you may get a telephone call from the Surgery Unit. During this call, you will be given information regarding where and what time to arrive on the day of surgery.
You must follow the list below or your surgery may be cancelled:
Tell your nurse if you have had any changes in your health - such as a cold, fever, or diarrhea - since your exam before surgery.
Changing Into a Gown: At this point, you will be taken to a dressing room to change into a hospital gown.
Anesthesia: Once you have changed into a gown, you may be offered medicine to relax you. An intravenous (IV) needle will be placed in your arm. This is for anesthesia, other medicines and fluids. Then you will be taken to the Operating Room.
In the operating room you will be helped on to a table. If you've never been in an operating room before, all the equipment and activity can be disturbing.
You'll see a lot of people you've never met before. There may be a lot of noise as members of the surgical team talk to each other and set up equipment. Your surgeon may come in to say hello. If you feel cold, ask for a blanket.
Much of the equipment you see is there to take care of you:
If anyone is doing something that you don't understand, please ask. Once you are asleep, your surgery will begin.

LITTLE ROCK, AR. (Jan. 15, 2013 ) – A gastroenterologist at Arkansas Children's Hospital (ACH) and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is guiding an effort to help children in developing countries recover from potentially deadly cases of pneumonia and malnutrition.
George J. Fuchs, III, MD, will head to Bangladesh next week as part of a symposium and workshop at the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease Research, Bangladesh (icddrb) to address the 61 million cases of childhood pneumonia that occur in south Asia each year. Fuchs is a practicing gastroenterologist at Arkansas Children's Hospital (ACH), a professor in the College of Public Health at UAMS and a professor of Pediatrics in the UAMS College of Medicine.
A former leader of the clinical sciences program and nutrition program at the icddrb, Fuchs and his colleagues have designed a study to test how successful an outpatient treatment protocol might be for children suffering from severe malnutrition and severe pneumonia. Kids who are malnourished are much more likely to experience infections like pneumonia, which leads to 2 million pediatric deaths per year — it claims one child every seven seconds. As many as 95 percent of these deaths occur in developing nations like Bangladesh.
"For decades in the hospital setting, scores of these children died," Fuchs said. "We think we can reduce that mortality rate."
These children are among the most severely ill and have therefore always been treated in the hospital. However, hospitals in these nations do not have enough resources or beds available to handle the pediatric epidemic, so a day clinic model might be a successful approach for caring for these children, Fuchs believes. His research team has already tested the day clinic model with success in a carefully controlled setting in urban Dhaka, Bangladesh, and their results were published in Journal of Tropical Pediatrics in 2007. Fuchs and his fellow researchers also advocated for the use of a standardized management protocol of children with diarrhoeal disease in a study published in Lancet in 1999.
Family dynamics contribute to the pediatric pneumonia and malnutrition mortality rates, as well. Mothers of sick children also face childcare and household responsibilities that prevent them from staying in the hospital. This may lead to many choosing home care instead of seeking care at the hospital.
"The reason we established this daycare clinic approach is that we knew the vast majority of kids who needed treatment weren't getting it," Fuchs said. "Either they don't have the resources to get to the treatment or they just can't stay in a hospital long enough for it to help. If this proves successful, we believe it could be a global model."
Next week's symposium will gather pneumonia and malnutrition experts from around the world to present current strategies and outcomes. Fuchs will discuss the connection between malnutrition and pneumonia.
The next step – an effectiveness trial of scaling up the daycare model within the Bangladesh urban and rural health systems – could start as soon as the spring, and would likely last a couple of years. It would focus on treatment for children between the ages of 2 and 5.
"We will do some basic training of health care workers in this approach to management," Fuchs said. "Then we will monitor its impact and compare treatment results and health care costs to the traditional approach of hospitalized care."
The effectiveness trial has received $1 million from the UBS Optimus Foundation in the form of a challenge grant. Support of the government of Bangladesh and other agencies such as UNICEF, the Asian Development Bank and the U.S. Agency for International Development are also key. Additional commitments are anticipated to completely fund the study.

7 People Who Risked It All to Achieve (Very Stupid) Goals
Look, we all have screwed-up priorities sometimes -- tell us you haven't at least once skipped class or work so you could, say, watch an all-day Frasier marathon. But as we like to point out, some people seem to be training to win the gold in the screwed-up priorities Olympics. For example ...
#6. To Get Rid of a Wart, a Man Blows His Finger Off With a Shotgun
For Yorkshire resident Sean Murphy, the painful wart on his finger was a source of frequent irritation and distraction, like being perpetually attached to a wacky sitcom neighbor. He tried everything he could think of to get rid of it, but after five years the wart was still there, constantly barging in uninvited and trying a new get-rich-quick scheme every week. Clearly it was time to get out the shotgun.
Via Telegraph
"Shotguns are like the Swiss Army knives of ... uh, guns."
That's right: After "no amount of creams, ointments or doctors' appointments" helped, Murphy decided it was time to take things to another level. He just so happened to have run across a 12-gauge Beretta shotgun that had been responsibly disposed of underneath a hedge, and Murphy had decided to keep it rather than alert the authorities because, hey, free shotgun. So, Murphy sat down with his new boomstick and, after a lot of careful deliberation, drank a whole shitload of beer. Then, after some much less careful deliberation, he took aim and blew the wart into oblivion ... along with the finger it was attached to.
Murphy was apparently surprised to lose his entire finger in the incident, and blamed the result on the gun's recoil. You know, instead of the copious amounts of alcohol in his system, or the fact that trying to shoot a wart off of a finger with a 12-gauge shotgun is like trying to ... actually, there is no comparison we can come up with crazier than this. In fact, from now on when trying to demonstrate overkill, we'll use the phrase "Like trying to remove a wart with a shotgun."
Via Telegraph
Then again, do you see any warts in this picture? Then problem solved.
The consequences didn't end there, though. Since the British legal system doesn't accept "finders keepers" as a defense against illegal possession of a firearm, Murphy found himself facing up to 15 years in prison. Fortunately, his lawyer was able to argue the sentence down to a fine and community service, which Murphy presumably will not be fulfilling by performing charity banjo recitals.
But if you think that losing his finger would get Sean Murphy down, you don't know Sean Murphy. According to him: "The best thing is that the wart has gone. It was giving me a lot of trouble." And in his defense, here's what his finger looked like before he decided to vaporize it:

Holy shit, what did he do -- finger bang a witch?
See, that's covering, like, 3 percent of his finger there.
#5. Woman Goes into Labor in the Middle of a Skyrim Presentation, Stays to Watch
The birth of a child is one of the most magical and important events in any person's life. For most people, that is. Other people apparently just cross their legs and squeeze real tight so they can sit and watch video games.
Such is the case of Stevi and her fiance, Chaz, who attended QuakeCon (a video game convention) while Stevi was uber pregnant. But the baby wasn't due for almost another whole month, and Stevi just loved video games so friggin' much, so what could it hurt, right?
"What's with all this kiddie crap? I told you chucklefucks that my baby needs an Alienware."
Right. So Stevi and Chaz settled in to watch a demo for the as-yet-unreleased Skyrim (you may have heard of it -- it was kind of a big deal), and when the Frost Dragon appeared onscreen, Stevi got so excited that she felt a contraction. At first she thought nothing of it, seeing as the kid wasn't due yet and it might have just been false labor, but when the contractions continued, there was no longer any question -- it was time for a tiny new game nerd to enter the world.
Time to drop everything and hightail it to the hospital! Right? Not exactly. You see, Stevi and Chaz are hardcore gamers ... so hardcore that they decided they'd stick it out for the entire half-hour presentation. Contraction after contraction, the pair toughed it out in order to get an eyeful of Tamriel, the Dark Brotherhood and the Bosmer, which, if you've never heard of them, let us inform you, are totally worth ignoring the birth of your own child for.
Via Elderscrolls.wikia.com
"Honey, looking at that map, do you get the feeling that we are just complete fucking children?"
Wait, no. No, they're not. But as Chaz explained later, they "stayed for the rest of the demo because [Stevi] is a trooper and loves Skyrim." Once the presentation finished, Stevi and Chaz finally decided to get their asses to the hospital, where Stevi gave birth to a healthy baby girl, whom she (no shit) named Atari Lynn.
Our advice to little Atari: Just open with this story whenever you meet someone new -- we find it's easiest get those pity looks out of the way right off the bat.
"I can't even get her to look at an Xbox. All she wants to do is homework."
#4. Teen Sells a Kidney for an iPad
At some point in his life, every man has seen an awesome toy like, say, a brand new Ferrari, and facetiously said something like, "Oh yeah, I'd give my right nut to have one of those!" Well, as far as we know, nobody's actually gone out and chopped off half their manhood for a new sports car, but there's one kid who did something arguably even more idiotic for something only marginally less likely to increase his chances with the opposite sex.
We're referring to a teenager from China, known only by his last name, Zheng, who really wanted an iPad 2. The only problem was, he was lacking the cash to buy one, being both a teenager and in China. So, like most teenagers in need, he turned to the best source of help he knew: the Internet. After negotiations with Nigeria's finest royalty presumably fell flat, Zheng came across an advertisement that promised to pay handsomely for something of his that he really wouldn't miss. Just, you know, a goddamn kidney.
"Hey, if you're willing to trade in your sphincter, we can throw in a couple of BlackBerrys."
Now, this is the part where most of us would get nightmarish visions of waking up in a motel room bathtub filled with ice, with half a day missing and a nice new jagged scar for our troubles. But not our friend Zheng, oh no: This teen took one look at that ad and he signed himself right up for major surgery. So that he could get an iPad.
If you're thinking this is where Zheng ran into a roadblock because he needed something like, oh, we don't know, maybe "parental consent" or perhaps "a psychological evaluation" in order to sell off a major organ, you're wrong. You see, in China, selling your organs is apparently so easy, a child can do it. So Zheng went on down to the hospital and sold his kidney, just like that, and returned home with his shiny new iPad (and a laptop to boot), which immediately made his mom suspicious.
"Wait, where is your sister?"
When she asked the boy where he'd gotten the money for the loot, Zheng instantly fessed up. The fact that this was also about the time he started feeling pain from complications from the major freaking surgery he had just put himself through probably was another reason for the quick confession.
Zheng's mom was understandably livid, but when she demanded restitution from the hospital -- preferably in kidney form -- she was denied. The kidney thief didn't work for them. It turns out the hospital had rented out their operating room to a shady private individual because, really, why not? The police were also of no help, and it looks like Zheng now has to live with his choice for the rest of his life. But hey, on the upside -- Angry Birds!
"YEAH! Finally! Wait, why is it turning off? I just charged the goddamn thing!"
