Forget Nick Carter ever was a bad boy

News Bite:

Accounts of Nick Carter's ill-mannered behavior at a Tampa, Florida, nightclub will be wiped from his record if he performs community service and enters a probationlike program.

The 22-year-old Backstreet Boy agreed to a pretrial intervention program on Friday, according to assistant state attorney Pam Bondi. As part of that program, Carter is required to pay a $290 fine and serve 16 hours of community service and three months in a probationlike diversion program. Carter is also obliged to write a letter of apology to his arresting officers.

In return, the charge of resisting or opposing a law enforcement officer without violence will be dropped.

Joe's D-Thoughts:
Why does pretty-boy get let off so easy and I had to serve 4 months for the same offense? God, life is so unfair, that pretty boy would have been meat to them prison folks, we... er... they would have turned him into a real man. He'll finally know pain, he'll know humilations, oh god... leave me alone, I don't want to no... no... stop... Stop...STOP!!!!

...

...

...

Oh, what was that? I... I blanked out there for a sec.

Anyway the guy is lucking out, he'll probably get laid twice as much now that he's known as the bad one.

Tron is going to bring the Movie Biz DOWN!
Credit CNet News

News Bite:

Tron is the author of a piece of software called SmartRipper, which allows DVDs to be copied fairly easily to a computer hard drive, and from there burned onto recordable DVDs.

So far, it's hardly a threat on the level that Napster once was. But cross Tron and his peers with rapidly falling prices of DVD burners, and it's easy to see why Hollywood executives are nervous.

Movie studios are now racing to find a technology that will keep people from making copies of DVDs, hoping to learn from the misfortunes of the recording industry. A group tasked with finding a way to block the copying says it hopes to have a fix by the end of the year. But the studios are in a race against time; DVD burners without anti-copying protections are flying off retail shelves.

"The sooner (we finish), the better," said Brad Hunt, chief technology officer for the Motion Picture Association of America, which is a part of the group selecting the technology. "Our enforcement efforts are good, but they're not perfect. To preserve the format, we need (these protections) to be out there."

The studios' attempt to close the door on DVD copying is just one push in a broad effort aimed at ensuring Hollywood avoids the piracy that has plagued the recording industry for the past several years. Because movies are much bigger files and because DVDs already have some copy protection included, the film industry has so far escaped much of the dangers posed by Napster and latter-day Net file-swapping programs such as Morpheus or Kazaa.

Great article, there's a bit more.

Wow that article was sweet, seriously go and finish it. Then go and download it. ;) Tell them Tron sent ya.

OJ (Frawgster to the unfamiliar) has news on Phillips going up against the music companies about the (what I call) "not-CDs" and could win but at what cost? Read about it here.

Heidi has more Pressplay news for you. Yeah I'm sick of hearing about Pressplay too Heidi. Go and read about it.

Here is some interesting facts I found, whether they are true or not remains to me seen but they're quite entertaining. But in the words of Maxim "if somebody else printed them they must be true".

In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with
animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is punishable by death. (Like THAT makes sense.)

In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman's genitals, but is prohibited from looking directly at them during the examination.
He may only see them through a mirror. (Kinda takes the fun out of that job)

Muslims are banned from looking at the genitals of a corpse. This also applies to undertakers; the sex organs of the deceased must be covered with a brick or piece of wood at all times.
(A brick??)

The penalty for masturbation in Indonesia is decapitation.
(Wonder which head?)

There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time...
Reason:
under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry.
(Let's just think for a minute; Is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this?)

In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous husband, but may only do so with her bare hands. The husband's lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired.(Ah! Justice!)

Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England - but only in tropical fish stores.(But of course!)

In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her husband, and the first time this happens, her mother must be in the room to witness the act. (Makes one shudder at the thought.)

In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to
have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time. (I presume this was a big enough problem that they had to pass this law?)

In Maryland, it is illegal to sell condoms from vending machines with one exception: Prophylactics may be dispensed from a vending machine only "in places where alcoholic beverages are sold for consumption on the premises."
(Is this a great country or what? But not as great as Guam!)

If you yelled for 8 years, 7 months and 6 days, you would have produced enough sound energy to heat one cup of coffee.(Hardly seems worth it)

If you fart consistently for 6 years and 9 months,
enough gas is produced to create the energy of an atomic bomb.
(Now that's more like it)

A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes.
(In my next life, I want to be a pig)

Banging your head against a wall uses 150 calories an
hour.(Still not over that pig thing)

Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex
for pleasure.(Is that why Flipper was always smiling?)

The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue.
(I won't touch THAT one!)

The ant can lift 50 times its own weight, can pull 30
times its own Weight and always falls over on its
right side whenintoxicated.
(From drinking little bottles of...?)
(Did the govt. pay for this research??)

Some lions mate over 50 times a day
(In my next life I STILL want to be a pig ...quality over quantity)

Butterflies taste with their feet.(Oh, geez)

An ostrich's eye is bigger than it's brain.
(I know some people like that.)

Starfish don't have brains.(I know some people like that too)

Those comments aren't mine, they came with the cut and paste, I kept them in cause I found them funny... well some of them.

But that's it from me tonight, y'all take it sleazy.

Joe

woah, first post...

when i die, i want to be re-born as a pig in guam

So strange.

What is this, the new "DFacto" format? Oh well, I'll go w/it, tho i have tons of these useless books.

"(Kinda takes the fun out of that job)" ...kinda takes the safety out of it too. Be happy none of the women in our families live in Bahrain. Also be happy that you're not single in Indonesia ...nor a ewe in Lebanon.

I'm movin' to Guam and stayin' away from Hong Kong.

"...to witness the act. (Makes one shudder at the thought.)" Depends on what her mother looks like.

"...at the same time. (I presume this was a big enough problem that they had to pass this law?)" rofl

"A pig's orgasm lasts for 30 minutes." No doubt it's the female pig. Women get all the breaks. hehe

"Humans and dolphins are the only species that have sex for pleasure. (Is that why Flipper was always smiling?)" Yes. heh ...However, dolphins don't wear clothes, tease, nor devise internal conflicts about it under the pretense of virtue.

"The strongest muscle in the body is the tongue." Is that so? I never knew that.

"Butterflies taste with their feet.(Oh, geez)" I won't begin to tell ya what a male spider does w/his feet. Its penis is located at the end of one of its legs.


Oh, and why am i always correcting the DATE on the already-5-day-old charts?? Zen sux.

eh I just get the stuff from the Zen Newsletter which is a weekly news emailer. So some of the stuff gets dated. But I usually get them on mondays.

What's DFacto mean? I have no idea what you mean by DFacto formate milla, I'm just a simple college student man.

I want to come back as a cross between a lion and a pig..

i WANT to cum back as a piggie in Lebannon I wonder if they got man on piggie porn there, that would be the best

ooooh k.

yianaki... u scare me sometimes dawg

Sorry, I like wordplay. "de facto" means "in realty"; "actually." This bein' DMusic, and those bein' trivial facts above, I reached for left field. Lame, right? What can i tell ya; they can't all be gold nuggets.
