Minneapolis Food Swap – Saturday, March 19th

A defiant try for those who love homemade products. This exchange and trade of homemade goodies reminded me of the good ol’grade school days of trading my chips for your Ho, Ho but a lot better. Food, comradely and wonderful hospitality, what more could you want? Give it a try in your neighborhood.

Our trades
The Inaugural Minneapolis Food Swap | The Heavy Table - Minneapolis-St. Paul and Upper Midwest Food Magazine and Blog
 You’re no chef, but you preserve a damn decent jar of pickles. You’re no master distiller, but that infused vodka turned out pretty nice. Then there’s that whole crock of sauerkraut that might be tough to finish.
Kim Christensen (below, bottom right) feels you. Her new endeavor, MPLS Swappers, aims to help everyday producers enjoy what clogs another’s larder.

Nice pictures of all the goodies at the swap.  The cheesecakes are my favorite but I could be a bit bias *wink ;)

Staycations more popular with high gas prices this year 
When gasoline prices shoot up, it's never good for the tourism industry.
The current price surge — with gas now up to an average of $3.55 per gallon — comes at a particularly bad time: the spring break travel season, which peaks in mid-March.

.XXX sites
On Friday, the board of directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which oversees the Internet's naming system, approved the creation of a red-light district online for pornographic websites. It follows a decade-long battle over such a name.
Pornographers worry it will ghettoize their sites. Although it's meant to be voluntary, they fear governments could try to mandate the domain's use, so that pornographic content is more easily blocked.
Shortage of IP Addresses – increases problem

iPhone 5 
"The iPhone 5 will keep a relatively similar size and shape as the iPhone 4 but Apple has decided to move away from the back-glass enclosure found on and move to something similar to the the fourth-generation device back of the first-generation iPhone from 2007,"

Tech Supply Chain Takes A Hit Following Japan Catastrophe
Japan is responsible for 14 percent of global production in computers, and other consumer electronics. Japanese makers for certain parts, such as flat screen panels, have an ever stronger hold on the respective supply markets. Sixty percent of the world's silicon wafers--used in semiconductor chips--are made in Japan.
Some analysts predict it could take six months before the tech supply chain returns to normal. Plants run by Toshiba, Panasonic and Sony have already been struck with damage, forcing shutdowns of several facilities. Sony has closed at least seven factories so far.
Factory damage is not the only concern. Infrastructural issues in the country--involving roads and mandated power outages--could delay rebuilding efforts for affected plants, and also slow the speed of transportation for parts. Repairing infrastructure throughout the country could take years.

Twitter, Facebook Become Vital During Japan Earthquake
 Through the use of social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and Mixi, people all around the world were able to get instant updates on the statuses of friends and family, as well as send thoughts and prayers to those in need. A trend of Twitter hashtags such as: #prayforjapan, #japan, #japanquake and #tsunami began appearing on most social networking and microblogging sites -- some of which received thousands of tweets per secondhttp://www.facebook.com/mplsswappers

November 14th 2010 GRB Show

Hey guys!  Thanks for hanging out with us.  There were a few rusty spots showing, like we never had problems right; never the less it was a good time as always. Remember you can catch up with us anytime on iTunes and if you want, email us its guerrilla_radio@comcast.net.

Sweet!

This is the latest video from the Today show expressing the concerns of the new TSA guidelines for airline screening.  We have a poll open asking "Will you use the MSPs Body Scanner?" Thanks for the vote.
There are  more videos about body scanners throughout the world on Utube.

What do you think?  Is the body scanners a necessary evil and do we need to just "suck it up" as someone mentioned to me.  Interesting.

We'd love to hear your thoughts of the TSA scanners and pat-downs. 





The TSA Blog
This is the OFFICIAL TSA Blog.  It sources the outcry of the rumors to acculturate events that happened.  The TSA has even linked security video with the events in question so the public can make their own informed decisions. 


MSP Stress Free?
 Hellz Yah! I am more relaxed.
  
Millions upon millions of Americans are stressing out.
Forty percent of the nation’s workers say they experience stress on a daily basis, according to a Gallup Poll from June. That number climbs to 50 percent among the unemployed. And the problem seems to be getting worse. Forty-eight percent of U.S. adults believe the stress in their lives has escalated during the past half-decade, says the American Psychological Association.

Tina Daunt HuffPost Contributing Editor 
Although HM Queen Elizabeth II is making her official debut on Facebook this week, some of her fans have been operating a page in her honor for about two years.
There's just one problem: the page administrators haven't updated the site since June and in their absence some very cheeky commoners have been leaving graffiti and random photos on the faux Royal Wall.
