Nanny Bans Pepe The Frog


Oh dear it seems a cartoon meme (Pepe the Frog) has drawn the ire of some Nannys, who have decreed it to be evil.

Online cartoon Pepe the Frog has been added to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL)'s database of hate symbols.

The anti-bigotry group said "racists and haters" had "taken a popular internet meme and twisted it".

Therein lies the problem with ADL's "logic". It is not the cartoon image itself that is racist or evil, but certain variations of it created by bigots and racists.

Hence, if they want to ban something, ADL should focus on the perversions of Pepe not the original frog itself.

Something that ADL has now admitted (after thinking a bit more on the subject).

As per the BBC:
"The ADL has clarified that most Pepe memes are not racist, and that innocent versions will not be subject to the hate symbol designation. 

"The mere fact of posting a Pepe meme does not mean that someone is racist or white supremacist."
So what exactly was the point of designating it in the first place then?

Oh, and for the record, I have never heard of Pepe until ADL kicked up a fuss over it!

Zuckerberg To Heal The World



Apparently Mark Zuckerberg intends to cure the world of all disease by the end of the century.

Call me a cynic, but I suspect that diseases (in some shape or from) will be with us as long as we exist as a species and most certainly as long as so many people waste time and mental resources on Facebook!

ASH Burns Its Fingers


Deborah Arnott, chief executive of the campaign group Action on Smoking and Health (Ash), said:
The continuing decline in smoking prevalence is a tribute to many years when successive governments have implemented comprehensive and progressive tobacco control strategies, including tax rises, mass media campaigns, anti-smuggling measures, smoke-free laws, advertising bans, and last but not least getting rid of tobacco displays and glitzy tobacco packaging.”
It's all very well to crow about the "effectiveness" of plain packs, but ASH seem to have "forgotten" that plain packs didn't come into the UK until May 2016. The decline in smoking stats refer to 2015 and earlier.

Most likely the increased use of vaps accounts for the decline, certainly not plain packs.

Horsham Police To Seize Freerunners


Free runners in Horsham town centre should be ‘seized by police and prosecuted’, according to
Brian Donnelly (Horsham's cabinet member for finance and assets).

Parkour, which involves negotiating between obstacles by climbing or jumping, is set to be banned in public spaces in the town centre under a Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) approved by Horsham District Council September 7.

The order also covers anti-social drinking of alcohol, anti-social use of vehicles and horse-drawn vehicles, control of dogs, and dog fouling across the district. Anyone found guilty of breaching the PSPO without a reasonable excuse could be fined, or issued with a fixed penalty notice.

It seems, as ever, an overreaction to lump free running into the same category as dog shit and horse drawn vehicles.

Additionally, does anyone envisage a police officer ever being able to catch ("seize") a freerunner?

This is simply another unnecessary, unenforceable law. In the event the freerunners cause damage we have laws such as trespass, criminal damage etc that can deal with them.

Why add another?

Firefighters Used To Lift The Obese


It is a very sad indictment of the way that we live our lives that firefighting resources are being called out more often to assist in lifting obese people.

The number of obese people being rescued by firefighters has increased by more than a third in the past three years.

The Telegraph reports that rescuers often have to use lifting equipment and special slings because people are too large to move independently, while windows, walls and interior fittings sometimes have to be removed to create enough space for obese people to be extracted.

In the past year, there were 944 rescues involving obese patients, compared to 709 in the period from 2012 to 2013, according to figures obtained by the BBC.

Ironically The National Obesity Forum said the increase in the figures was due to the fact that obese people are getting bigger, rather than there being more people who are obese.

This in itself rather calls into question the effectiveness of Nanny's continual nagging about how much/what we eat and our weight!

Booze Offset By 150 Minutes of Weekly Exercise


According to a study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine modest exercise of 150 minutes per week can offset the harmful effects of booze.

The researchers, from the University of Sydney, analysed data from nationally representative health surveys carried out in England and Scotland between 1994 and 2006.

They found that, after taking into account external factors, there is a direct association between drinking larger amounts of alcohol and death from all causes and from cancer.

The researchers found that the risk was reduced/eliminated among those who are physically active, which they define as requiring at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity every week.

Fair enough, as it rather knocks on the head Nanny's doom laden lectures telling us not to drink.

However, is it not possible that those who are active are generally healthier than others, and that it is that general level of good health that motivates/energises them to be active (ie energy and activity are by products of good health).

As such is it not the old story that some people will die younger than others, no matter what, and that "one size fits all" recommendations for booze/exercise do not work?

The Dangers of Lemons


Oh dear, as an avid G&T drinker I am ungemused to see that Nanny is fretful about the use of lemons in cocktails.

It seems that according to some "research" originally published in the Journal of Environmental Health in 2007, and recently republished by Elle, the skins of lemons harbour all sorts of microbes (courtesy of the barman's/barmaid's sweaty hands).

Seemingly almost 70% of the drinks ordered in the test of 21 bars in the USA produced some sort of microbial growth, from 25 different microbial species.
Well, I have yet to die from a dodgy lemon slice in my G&T. Thus I will continue to have ice and a slice, and risk it!

#VazGate - Vazeline Broke The Law



Nanny and her chums are very fond of lecturing us on how we should behave, and what we are allowed/not allowed to put into our bodies (drugs, booze, fags, sugar, salt etc).

Yet, when it comes to Nanny and her chums, there is one law for us and another for Nanny.

Step forward Mr Vazeline, who believes that he is above the law!

Whilst the law wrt drugs is stupid, those who make the law cannot be above the law that they create!

Life Causes Cancer


It would appear that modern life is killing children, with the number of youngsters diagnosed with cancer rising 40% in the past 16 years because of air pollution, pesticides, poor diets and radiation.

That at least is what researchers at the charity Children with Cancer UK believe, they claim that there are now 1,300 more cancer cases a year compared with 1998.

Apparently, the increase is most notable in teenagers and young adults aged between 15 and 24, where the incidence rate has risen from around 10 cases in 100,000 to nearly 16.

Researchers say that although some of the rise can be explained by improvements in cancer diagnoses and more screening, the majority is probably caused by environmental factors.

Please note that word "probably", ie they are not certain!

Anyhoo, if the researchers are to be believed amongst the list of causes are:

- air pollution
- mobile phones
- BBQ's
- solvents in household cleaners
- power lines
- CT scans
- bright light at night etc

The list is endless!

The solution?

Stop breathing and stop living!

Alternatively we could go back to Victorian times, before most of these factors existed (air pollution aside). Unfortunately the infant and child mortality figures were off the scale in those days, and the chances are you would die of TB, cholera, pneumonia, measles, whooping cough or simply "old age" at around 35.

Nowadays most babies born are likely to survive into teenage-hood, hence the statistical increase in those with cancer. 

In other words, because we are living longer and our babies don't die at birth or in infancy, we have swapped one form of death for another.
