For the second straight year, the birth rate in the United States has dropped.  The number of babies born dropped 2.6%.  The news may not be surprising given the state of the economy.  Stress tends to take it toll on people's sex life.

People also tend to postpone having children when their financial ability to raise a child is not so great.

The U.S. birth rate has been declining since the start of the economic downturn in late 2007. When the economy picks up, so should births, said Cherlin, though he stressed it will take time for people to feel secure again.

San Francisco passes the first law in the United States to requiring cell phone retailers to disclose the phones' specific absorption rate to customers.

The SAR (Specific Absorption Rate) measures the maximum amount of radiation absorded by a person using a handset.  The FCC limits SAr to an average of 1.6 watts per kilogram of body tissue.

It should be noted that no conclusion has been reached after several studies if cell phones and risk of developing brain cancer are rleated.

After watching Whale Wars repeatedly and having always had a affinity to whales, you would think that others in the United States would form some kind of aversion to the killing of whales.  We should also have a greater aversion to eating them as well.

Based on the espisodes of Whale Wars, one gets the impression that it was the country of Japan that was the main killer and consumer of whales. 

Today, while reading the news, I was sadden to see that one of my favorite Sushi restaurants in Santa Monica, California was busted for selling whale meat to its patrons.  What restaurant you ask?  The Hump. 

The Hump was always know for having excellent fish.  Celebrities can be seen sitting by themselves on weeknights reading a book and enjoying the fine sushi.  But after reading that the Hump was serving whale meat as part of the cheaf recommended fish, I don't think I can ever eat there away.

The news said that the chef faces, a maximum one year prison and a fine up to $100,000.00.  Whiel the restaurant only faces a max $100,000 fine.  I personally think that the owners of the resturant and the chef should face potential jail time together.

Prison time should not be limited to only the chef.

Killing and eating whale meat is wrong.  We should not do anything in this country that will contribute to that imoral industry.

Did you notice that last nights Oscar "In Memoriam" section did not include Farah Fawcett?  That was bull shit.  The day after, amid criticism amoungs the public, Oscar's respnse was that not everyone can be included in the section.

That is just plain even more bullshit as it seem like there were not enough people or that they could have show the individual longers during the James Taylor rendition of "In My Life".  Clearly there was enough time but Oscar decided to omit Farah.

Say what you want about her carrerr but when I look back at my child hood, Farah Fawcett was an icon.  Who could not remmeber or didn't own that poster of her in her bathing suit.  She was an icon and a mega beauty. 

They should have included her.  She deserved to be there amoung her peers.

Recently a lady with D size silicone breast implant might have gotten the benefits of her breast in a new way.  When gun men stormed her Dental Office and shot her in the chest.  It is believed that the silicone implant help absorbed much of the bullet's impact, limiting most of the damage to the breast itself.

Who knew that getting implants could have some many beneficial benefits as well as intended benefits.

So I always wondered if unplugging your electronic goods really saves you any energy and most off in your pocket book.  That question was recently answered.

According to The Consicious Consumer Blog, while it is true that an "informed and aggressive approach can reduce standby use by about 30 percent" there are more productive ways to save more energy.

The reasoning is that it can be a pain in the ass to unplug and plug back in all your electronic goods and charger.

Maybe the best way to do it if you really want to go this route is to plug your extension into one or several component and turn on and off this plug units.

At least now we now that it does actually save energy and can save us up to 30%,

So I was driving in my car this morning and I heard some crazy information or really tibbets that I thought I saw with our readers:

1. A adopted boy has been looking for his biological father.  He found out that his real dad was Charles Manson;
2. A Man who was in a coma for 23 years recently came out of it due to medical new wonders.  It turned out that the entire time he was in the coma he could hear everything around him but could not move or respond to it; and
3. The police department in Northern California during the Thanksgiving holiday are giving out a free tuckey to everyone who passes their DUI test.

Crazy stuff right?

Sammy Sosa is once again the subject of Internet buzz, but this time it's not for steroids. This time it's for skin care. Or something that might resemble skin care. Sosa made waves last week when he showed up at the Latin Grammy Awards in Las Vegas with a noticably lighter skin tone than he had during his playing days. So what's behind this new lighter skin tone?

"He's not trying to be Michael Jackson," said former Cubs employee Rebecca Polihronis, who talks frequently with Sosa. "He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin," Polihronis said. "Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double.

Part of (the photo appearance) is just the lighting. "He is in the middle of doing a cleansing process to his skin. The picture is deceiving. He said, 'If you saw me in person, you would be surprised. When you see me in person, it is not going to seem like the picture.' "People who saw him in person did not react the same way. He can't believe it is such a big deal."

Jessica Simpson's maltipoo Daisy was grabbed by a wild coyote recently. The dog was not been seen site.  Jessica has offered a reward to anyone who can reunite her and her 5 year old dog.  Her dog has vanish.  Knowing coyote and the how small her dog is, it is unlikely that the dog is alive.

Daisy was a gift from her ex-husband, Mick Lachey.  Unlike her boyfriends/husband, it was the only thing that wouldn't live her, but now she is gone too!
