Among those over thirty- five on the reservation, the rate of diabetes, the disease most closely associated with obesity, is fifty per cent, eight times the national average and a figure unmatched in medical history. It is not unheard of in Sacaton for adults to weigh five hundred pounds, for teen-agers to be suffering from diabetes, or for relatively young men and women to be already disabled by the disease--to be blind, to have lost a limb, to be confined to a wheelchair, or to be dependent on kidney dialysis. emmineb Fri, 13 Apr 2007 10:04:51 GMT http://www.glumbert.com/media/spacefall From a camera mounted on a rocket booster on the Space Shuttle Atlantis. emmineb Thu, 25 Jan 2007 22:10:03 GMT http://www.gnod.net/ Visual map of: Authors=>Literature-Map Movies=>Gnovies.com Music=>Gnoosic.com emmineb Wed, 07 Jun 2006 07:10:40 GMT http://googlemapsmania.blogspot.com/ An unofficial Google Maps blog tracking the websites, mashups and tools being influenced by Google Maps. emmineb Fri, 02 Mar 2007 04:51:47 GMT http://www.googlewhack.com/tally.pl emmineb Wed, 28 Feb 2007 14:31:11 GMT http://www.tomballhatchet.com/hamstershredder.html Tom Ballhatchet emmineb Fri, 13 Apr 2007 11:45:56 GMT http://blogs4brownback.wordpress.com/2007/05/18/heliocentrism-is-an-atheist-doctrine/ What’s even worse than the debate raging in American schools about the teaching of the soulless doctrine of evolution, is the non-debate over an issue that rational Americans have foolishly conceded to the secular among us: the issue of Heliocentrism, or the idea that the Earth revolves around the Sun. emmineb Wed, 13 Jun 2007 21:24:45 GMT http://www.lifehacker.com/software/privacy/geek-to-live--hide-data-in-files-with-easy-steganography-tools-230915.php Unlike encryption, which obscures data in such a way that it's obvious someone's keeping something from listeners-in (and therefore heightens interest in that info), stego techniques offer no hint to the outsider that there's any private data contained within the visible file. Like hiding your valuables from burglars in an empty cereal box in your kitchen cabinet, steganography keeps the existence of the secret item from everyone but those in the know. emmineb Wed, 30 May 2007 07:19:26 GMT http://www.holyjuan.com/2007/05/10-attributes-of-really-lazy-people.html 10 Attributes of Really Lazy People emmineb Thu, 10 May 2007 13:53:55 GMT http://ww2.howmanyofme.com/ There are 299,968,595 people in the United States of America. The U.S. Census Bureau statistics tell us that there are at least 88,799 different last names and 5,163 different first names in common use in the United States. Some names are more common than others. There are 49,535 people named John Smith in the United States. There are 1,048 people named James Bond, 113 people named Harry Potter , 503 people named George Bush, and 31 people named Emily Dickinson. However, Johnny Cash (39 people) songs aside there are, statistically speaking, no boys named Sue. What about you? How many people share your name? Enter it and find out how many of you there are. emmineb Mon, 23 Oct 2006 15:49:49 GMT
