John Travolta } I did not have inappropriate relations with that Man

John Travolta would like to make it perfectly clear: He did not have inappropriate relations with that massage therapist.

  "Pulp Fiction" star Travolta denies claims made in a lawsuit filed against him last Friday by a man who claims that the actor touched his penis and scrotum while giving a massage to Travolta.

"This lawsuit is a complete fiction and fabrication," a statement from the actor's publicist says. "None of the events claimed in the suit ever occurred."

The statement adds that Travolta was on the other side of the country when the alleged violation occurred, and that the actor completely intends to exact legal vengeance after getting the suit against him tossed.

 "On the date when plaintiff claims John met him, John was not in California and it can be proved that he was on the East Coast," the statement -- which calls the suit a "baseless lie" -- reads. "John intends to get this case thrown out and then he will sue the attorney and Plaintiff for malicious prosecution."

The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in California Friday, claims that Travolta molested the plaintiff -- who filed the suit anonymously -- while receiving a massage at a bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Jan. 12.

 According to the suit, the plaintiff was contacted through a web site ad, after which Travolta picked him up in his Lexus SUV personally and brought him to the bungalow.

And then things got really weird.

Best Buy Associate Outs Customer

 Why human beings enjoy hurting other human beings? To make this subject more simple lets stay superficial;  Leaving war aside and child custody, divorce.  Let stay with the simple ones. Like this particular case in which the perp had nothing to gain, nothing but to make someones life who was already may be confused making it more confused.

This is not the case of setting a cam, a computer with monitor and getting a crowd of fellow students  to watch being outed while he was intimate with his boy friend. By the way in that case in which I have reported so much about the perp(don’t want to mention his name) hanging by scrotum for ever is not enough.  so why do we do it?If you know, let me know.  adamfoxie*

In this outing caper a man was caught in a frustrating situation after he went to a Best Buy store to exchange his cell phone for a new one.

Rich Dewberry was having trouble with his cell phone and took it to Best Buy for repairs. After employees told him that they could not fix the problem, they issued him a new phone and service plan.

Things were supposed to go on as usual, but when he started receiving phone calls from family and friends who seemed to be concerned about him, he became suspicious.

A message appeared on his Facebook account that simply stated, "I am gay. I'm coming out."

Dewberry had not checked or updated his status, so he was unaware that his family and friends were able to see this post which was written on his wall.

He knew something was not right when he started getting numerous calls.

Like us on Facebook 

"Calls started coming in immediately to my house phone … Friends, ex-spouses, they were all calling," Dewberry told KMGH.

After a quick look at his Facebook page, he discovered the post came shortly after he had left the Best Buy store. The next day, he contacted that manager of the store to file a complaint.

After the incident, Dewberry received word from the store manager that the employee responsible had been identified and then terminated.

Best Buy released a statement after the resolution of the incident which explained that employees are aware of how they should treat customer's private information.

"Each year, every employee of Best Buy is asked to review and sign our Code of Ethics, which includes details on how they are expected to handle customer information," stated the electronics giant.

Dewberry insists that his privacy was violated and that it has caused him a great deal of mental anguish due to the constant explanations that he has had to give telling people he is not gay.

"Just having to explain it to certain people I come in contact with, I feel like I shouldn't have to do that," he said.

Experts recommend anytime you get a new phone you should do a hard reset of the device to erase the memory. Usually that option is found in the settings menu.

Hepatitis C Catches Up And Passes HIV

A Company recycles Used syringes

    It happens to be that I am Certified by various orgs and also was by DOH (Dept of Health….duhhh) to teach about Hep C. I had a brother who lost his liver and about 3 years latter after the transplant his life;  One good year but the others were hell can’t be that bad.    So I always fell close to the issue. I felt like it was so easy to learn how to not get it… and  NOT necessary.   All you need is information and help with the government allowing the Health Dep.s to give away sterile syringes and have secure boxes that can be had for the used  of used syringes that are collected so no other person gets sick from it.  I tried to teach the user, or the medically prescribed person, be Diabetes, Testa, and others on how not to become a statistic, particularly the user population.  They were instructed in what to do with those dirty syringes.  It is so much easier to catch hep C than HIV in a practical sense.  In HIV you need bodily fluids that have to fight bodily defenses, with Hep C all you need is a syringe that goes from blood right to the user's blood. There are no anti virus protection, boiling water is not that great, even though is better than nothing, but you are still putting your liver on the line.  When contaminated,  HIV blood is put on a table and the same for HepC 9 (Hep C Stays Out there enjoying the the environment for days.) HIV dies when exposed to air and oxygen after a while.   When the same thing i done to the blood with Hep C, the virus stays alive for days.

This virus is a lifetime affair. There is no cure and very little medication that will work on people with Hep C. Lots of people will need a liver replacement, I don’t need time spent letting you know how hard is to find one and match one that matches you and you are next on the list

In the US HIV cases are down 12,700 (CDC) this is down from more than 50,000 during the 90’s. Condoms and education, let me say again, education!! is what’s done the turn around. So We have stopped HIV and we got it on the run.  If people are getting the information and getting those test to find out. Those tests protect you if you are poz because you can be treated and hopefully you are not going to infect anybody else.  You will learn that there are many discordant couples (-+). Also is important that if you had a test 6 months ago and you do a self test lets say and you become + on the second, then you know the time line  which can be good for more than one reason, But the one I like is that you might not even need meds. BELIEVE me KNowing is better than not knowing, guessing if you infecting half of the city if you are very active. If you are - you know you are doing the right things. Having sex enjoying it and not exosing yourself because you know how to do things.

 The majority of the 3.2 million people who are estimated to have chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) in the U.S. are baby boomer adults.

And most of those infected with the virus do not know that they have it, which means they could easily be spreading it to others via exposure to blood—or, occasionally, sexual contact.

Although long-term intravenous drug users are at particular risk, so are “those who experimented with  [such] drugs for a limited time in their youth,” Harvey Alter and T. Jake Liang, both of the National Institutes of Health, wrote in an essay published online Monday in Annals of Internal Medicine. “These bygone experiences do not often connote risk to the affected persons nor serve as a reason to seek testing,” they noted, making this slow-developing disease difficult to catch before it develops into cirrhosis or liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma). Their essay was part of a four-paper special series on hepatitis C.

  More than 15,000 people died from hepatitis C-related issues in the U.S. in 2007—about three quarters of whom were people aged 45 to 64, according to Alter and Liang. And that number is expected to double as the bulk of the population with the disease get older. The cost of treating all of these people is likely to top $6.7 billion in the decade of 2010 to 2019.

Much of that growth is anticipated because those infected with hepatitis C often don’t seek treatment until the disease has caused serious damage, according to another paper published Monday in the same issue of Annals of Internal Medicine. “Hepatitis C virus infection is often asymptomatic or causes nonspecific symptoms (depression, arthralgia and fatigue) for decades,” Kathleen Ly, of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and her colleagues wrote in their paper.

The good news for those who do get diagnosed is that new hepatitis C drugs are coming onto the market. But they are not cheap. One new promising one, a protease inhibitor called boceprevir, runs about $1,100 per week, which when added to the double-drug cocktail of interfearon and the antiviral ribavirin, makes for especially expensive treatment. Some researchers have proposed that testing patients for a genotype that has a cure rate of less than 40 percent with previous treatment might help make treatment the more cost effective.

A new analysis in the same issue of Annals of Internal Medicine, led by Shan Liu of the Center for Health Policy at Stanford University, found that giving HCV patients of all genotypes a triple-drug cocktail is, indeed, cost-effective for allowing patients to live longer, healthier lives. And as Alter and Liang pointed out, as opposed to HIV or even hepatitis B, HCV can often be effectively cured after six months to a year of antiviral treatment. “Every effectively treated high-risk individual diminishes the infectious pool and the likelihood of secondary transmission.”

With treatment options expanding, many researchers are turning their attention back to the question of locating patients. “As innovative treatments for hepatitis C follow their now-destined progression, the most burning question will not be whether to treat, but rather how to identify the many chronic HCV carriers who are unaware of their infection and are at risk for cirrhosis, end-stage liver disease, or hepatocellular carcinoma,” Alter and Liang wrote.

Knowing that those born between 1945 and 1964 are at the highest risk for HCV infection could help guide screening, according to another study published in the same issue of the journal, led by David Rein, of the CDC. “Because HCV progresses slowly, the risk for serious complications is increasing among infected Americans as time passes,” he and his colleagues wrote. “Without changes in current case identification and treatment, deaths from HCV are forecasted to increase to 35,000 annually by 2030.”

The Pay Pal Experience- and your Overdraft- A Scam

"Pay Pal from partner in small start ups to Predatory Practices” I need to say sorry for posting the above blog which was not a blog but part of a comment I left on another bloggers  comments. It wasnt until recently I realized I posted comments and not my post. I am sorry. The following is the report intended:

 PAY PAL 

 *Pay Pal born, since companies are people too, in 1998.  Elon Musk converted it into an internet company in 1999. It was a good company to do business with for a small business or if you enjoy lots of *Ebay. It was terrific until when the proverbial truth happens:  Big fish swallows small fish. *EBay buys *PP for $5.5 Billion in 2002. Not bad for Mr. Musk! Now Comes a bigger fish *GE and buys the 

whole enchilada con queso y guacamoles.

 Then comes a whale of a fish ‘*Chase' and buys everybody.  Some part of your mortgage or something financial that you do, means you are probably dealing with Chase.  Something to do with financing of your car, by your house if it’s an expensive one..there is chase.

The Pay Pal  Experience 

One way or the other (PP) will have your banking information (account numbers).  They will give you the option of using any account number, credit card, savings, checking or the number on your swiss account.  They ask you when you open the account or in other ways when you have become a Pal. First how bright can you be to pay with pay pal instead of your CC or Debit account. Debits in most cases are free (old customer grandfather in, direct deposit and a couple of other things). 

May be is just a power trip for you. Like paying with Amex moon rock…hasn’t come out yet..but stay tuned. May be you just want  to let the cashier behind a tire or auto store, to feel owe that you are important by paying with something she/he probably never heard of.  Makes you feel important by paying with Pay Pal doesn’t it?

How about if paying with pay pal with cost you a lot of money? Start at $35 and the limit? I don’t know.  I am writing about over draft protection.

You might say,  my bank can’t do that because I told them “I don’t want your overdraft protection”

But My bank tells me that is up to the bank discretion on this. If someone has your bank account number and they have a merchant number, or a reader your bank will honor the transaction, but particularly from Pay Pal. Is a way to get around overdraft protection. They will  charge you $35.00 pay pal $35.00 and those $35.00 can multiply. But $35.00 to me or $10.00 is a lot of money when nobody is done nothing for me. This is what I mean:

Allow me to explain how the scam works: 

Suppose that you have plenty of money in your checking account because you work…wall street…low blow…I wont say that….you work and got pay and there is money in your account. You have no money on Pay Pal, why would you be leaving money there. But you sell condoms on the side and people can pay with pay pal that will charge 20% and up.  I can understand you sold something and   use them (PP)…but then you have to get that money out of there ASAP/ No interest no Federal Insurance, just because they are your pal?  I would say use…..their papi instead, Chase. Which makes better sense to me. 

Now we said you got money at your bank and no money at (PP) but  for $17 for some condoms you sold. Your car hits a pot hole and breaks a tire.  You give you debit with Visa or Master card logo.  The human behind the counter says, 

“Dibitt or Cherch?” 

You give your card out  Charge you say and you are handed a slip to sign. Well more and more tire and repair national chains are taking PP At their stores. **Advance Auto Parts in Jersey  for instance. I saw PP right on the register keys with the other cards.. Now Lets say Cashier hit PP for MC…not wearing glasses that day.  Transaction goes to PP and PP approves You got $17.00 (sale is $125.00) at PP and  because this is profit making, approving transaction that over pass the limit is good business if they can pass it on.  PP asks your bank for the money and your banks approves  $125.00 leaving you short for the Insurance, car payment or anything else.  You had your  just transferred $400. to checking to pay for car Insurance and to be  kind lets say car payment.

PP gets pay a negotiated transaction fee from your bank. Both your mortgage and car payments checks bounced. Never mind your $35. for your bank. Mortgage, like rent and car payment and Insurance you want to keep square away if you want to keep them.

This is Pay Pal and going further,  we have to ask the politicians that sold the law, when they made it very profitable for an industry called  credit counselors and told us it was harder for discharging debs in court and more expensive if you had no money to pay but but they were going to make the banks be a little fair with you. The banks could not make you have overdraft protection…not true... my experience and according to my bank. And Pay Pal is like not haing the law at all.

Bullying The Weak Defines the Victim Bullying the Strong is Satire

 A COUPLE of weeks ago Dan Savage, a columnist and activist perhaps best known for making Rick Santorum hate Google and for trying to comfort bullied gay teens, gave the right a gift. At a high-school journalism convention, heattacked Bible-backed anti-gay bigotry. He pointed out that the Bible does indeed condemn homosexuality, but it alsoendorses slavery. "We can learn to ignore the bullshit in the Bible about gay people," he said, "the same way we learned to ignore the bullshit in the Bible about shellfish, about slavery, aboutdinner, about farming, aboutmenstruation, about masturbation...We ignore bullshit in the Bible about all sorts of things." During this portion of his speech some students walked out. When he moved on to another topic, he said, "You can tell the Bible guys in the hall to come back now because I'm done beating up the Bible. It's funny to someone who is on the receiving end of beatings justified by the Bible how pansy-assed people react when you push back."

Mr Savage was making one valid point and one sloppy one. The former: people who justify anti-gay bigotry by brandishing a Bible but ignore other, less convenient biblical prohibitions (the list might also include mixed fabrics and divorce) are hypocrites. The latter: people quick to condemn ought not to be so quick to take offence. The problem with the latter point is that however true it is in the abstract, it was not necessarily true in the particular. No evidence exists that the students who walked out ever condemned or bullied anyone. However poorly Mr Savage may have been treated in high school, it was not by the students in the audience, and they deserved more from a famous and accomplished journalist than derision. Mr Savage acknowledged as much when heapologised, both for the regrettable and infantile slur "pansy-assed" and for using what the great J. Anthony Lukas called "a barnyard epithet" to refer to the Bible. (He could, of course, have opted to make a broader point: that nobody should be so quick to take offence; that journalists will hear a lot of things over the course of a career that they find offensive and even hurtful, and walking out anytime that happens will result in a short career and a narrow mind; that, however ugly his language Mr Savage was at least advancing arguments, and that surely at least one of those offended souls hoping to make a life out of words could have found a few to hurl back at him rather than just flouncing out in a huff.)

Mr Savage's apology did not stop the outrage machine. Some seem to have taken particular delight in hurling Mr Savage's epithets—bully and basher (of Christians and Christianity, rather than gays)—back at him. The American Thinker harrumphs, "Evidently, bullying is one of those things that is defined by the 'victim'." Well, yes: in fact it is. Bullying is the strong picking on the weak, not the other way around (the other way around is satire). One could make the argument that in the case of Mr Savage's speech, he was the strong one, and the high-school students were "victims", but that would be weak tea indeed. Mr Savage is one person, not a movement, and of course those students whom he gave the vapours were free to leave. Not everyone has such freedom. Gay teens, not Christian teens, kill themselves at higher rates than the general populace. Nobody calls Christianity an abomination. One blogger accused Mr Savage of "Christian-bashing" for pointing out the Bible's position on slavery. A writer for a Focus on the Family site said that "using profanity to deride the Bible...is obviously a form of bullying and name-calling." In fact it is neither: Mr Savage, however intemperate his language, was arguing, not name-calling. That is a crucial distinction, and one that too often eludes the showily devout. If the Bible is in fact the word of God it can survive a few arguments about context and application.  economist.com
