This Contest Should Have Been Publicized More Seems like something many of us could be good at! Man Wins ‘Lying Flat’ Contest by Laying on a Mattress for 33 Hours Straight
On November 15, 240 gathered at a shopping center in Baotou City, China’s Inner Mongolia province, to take part in an unusual competition inspired by the ‘lying flat’ movement. “Lying flat” is a popular internet slang term in mainland China that describes a lifestyle of giving up on the rat race of reaching societal expectations and instead relaxing and choosing to maintain a minimum standard of living. The rules of the competition were fairly straightforward: contestants needed to lay flat on a mattress, and while they were allowed to roll around on the mattress, read books, eat, or use their smartphones, they were not allowed to get up from the mattress or even use the restroom. The last person to remain lying flat would be declared the winner. Although there was no time limit for the contest, over the first 24 hours, 186 competitors had been eliminated. Those who remained on their mattresses agreed to stricter rules being gradually introduced, and after 30 hours, only a handful of people remained in the competition. At the 33-hour and 9-minute mark, only 3 contestants remained in the lying flat contest. Two minutes later, one was eliminated. The remaining 2 contestants lasted for over 20 minutes, and finally, at 33 hours and 35 minutes, one of them gave up, and the other was pronounced the winner.Do you think you could have lasted longer?

A controversial skincare trend known as the “blood mask” is gaining traction on social media, drawing both curiosity and concern from experts. The practice, also referred to as “menstrual masking,” involves individuals applying their own menstrual blood to their face in hopes of achieving clearer, more radiant skin. Supporters of the blood mask trend claim that menstrual blood contains regenerative components such as stem cells, cytokines, and proteins. These elements are believed to promote collagen production, reduce wrinkles, and accelerate healing. A study published by the Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB) found that menstrual fluid-derived plasma may aid in tissue repair and wound healing more effectively than standard blood plasma.Check out the whole thing. If you dare!

A 25-year-old Texas woman is behind bars after authorities say she ordered a 9-year-old girl to drive her car, which crashed and landed the young child in the hospital with serious injuries.
Home surveillance video footage caught the car swiftly skidding down a street in reverse with the driver’s side door open. Police say the child was flung out of the car when it suddenly crashed into a neighbor’s car.

Happy Thanksgiving to you as well! We are having son, DIL and grands and THAT's IT! I am so happy I don't have to be dragged out to a mental institution like last year. A niece's dinner with my husband's wacko sisters and niece's in-laws. It was like Dante's Inferno for me.
Her drunk BIL got a huge crush or something and clung to me like lint. Super creepy dude and about 30yrs younger. I can tell you with certainty what happens when those tusk holes in ears "heal." The earlobes curl up on themselves in a hideous manner. He accented this with huge fake zirconia studs and I could not focus on whatever socialist crap came out of his mouth.
I literally wanted to run home like Forest Gump and informed my husband and sons that I was done. No more. I was so tense afterwards I felt like I'd had a root canal vs going to a dinner party.
I will stay home and starve before this again. Hallelujah! They listened and are over it, too.

No offense to Iron Maiden, but they never had the Top 40 airplay which made Three Dog Night's music evocative of my grade/high school/early college days. They had a ton of hits, some pretty damn good. Still laugh at 'Mama Told Me (Not to Come)'.

A couple of years ago we stopped at a Buckees in Tennessee. We were driving cross country and thought we would stop to check it out.
There were no gas pumps available and inside the store you could barely get in the door.
It looks like a cool place. We'll try again someday.

Of course you know Edison Lighthouse frontman Tony Burrows had an amazing career singing on 70's hits for bands that were considered one-hit wonders. In addition to "Love Grows", he also provided lead vocals for the Brotherhood of Man's "United We Stand" and "Gimme Dat Thing", by the Pipkins, a very unlikely top 10 hit. I think I still have the 45 of that one...

My father actually made one for me when I was a kid messing with radios. Fit on a pencil iron, brass tip with a bore through it, short piece of brass tube with discs silver-soldered onto it as cooling fins, and a rubber squeeze bulb. Squeeze the bulb, apply the tip to the work, and when the solder melts, release the bulb. It was pretty effective. But that was with real solder.

Modern pop culture is obsessed with Menstruation.
And I think its simple and stupid as to why.
Feminists dislike anything traditional culture has to say about women, and one obvious thing traditional culture says is people should keep bodily functions to themselves. Since Menstruation is a woman's specific bodily function then it must instead be celebrated. It isn't dirty its...almost a religious rite!

But the stench alone would keep me from doing it for real. Ain't no way.
Christy, the snail mucosin is no big deal, but I didn't notice any improvement.
A good grade of castor oil, with a few drops of frankincense oil is my go to.
I exfoliate with of Korean retinal once or twice a week, and on those days I add a drop of a niacinimide/bee propolis oil to the castor/frankincense oil.Beauty of Joseon is my favorite K-Beauty company. Very inexpensive but effective, once I found what works for me.
But the castor oil is the main thing I'll never be without. So many good uses for it!

That's terrible. That's how my mom went. Back pain. We didn't think much of it at first because her back gave her problems every so often since we were kids. This time though it lasted more than a week instead of a couple days, then after 2 weeks she got an MRI. 28 days later, gone. My brother in law went the same way, he had back problems, and a few surgeries. Started having pain again, went to the doctors who kept focusing on his back and missed the cancer, and by the time they found it he was gone in 3 weeks.

The Shat was the murderer in two Columbo episodes, one in the '70s, one in the '90s.
In the '70s one, he was a famous TV detective who murdered his producer.
In the '90s, he was "Fielding Chase", radio talk show host. His moustache in this one did famously change color and shape/size.
Nimoy was the murderer in one '70s episode. He killed Anne Francis.

The worst was when I went into the hospital for the bypass surgery. Its the first day I'm there and brother texts me. He tells me a friend of ours since we were kids who we saw every so often had gone into hospice. He found out through his sister who has my brother do contractor jobs at her house. I couldn't believe it, I was in the hospital and couldn't do a damn thing about it. Had I known just a couple days earlier I would have visited him. He was gone by the time I got out of the hospital. It started with a pain in his shoulder blade. He was 2 weeks from retiring. I got out of the hospital 4 days before the funeral and was in no condition to go. He went fast, and out of the blue.

We received the food bag today with a big frozen turkey, bags of potatoes and sweet potatoes, a huge apple pie and all the fixings for green bean casserole. Way too much for just the two of us, especially the whole turkey.
We called our neighbor up who is around 80 and asked if he and his family could use some Thanksgiving food. We gave him the turkey and sweet potatoes tonight and will deliver the green beans and pie tomorrow if he can use those.
What was strange is that included in this food bag were two bags of cat treats. The coworker said she didn't tell the organizers anything about cats. So either someone involved knew us or when they came around this afternoon and saw cats in the window, they went back to the store and bought our cats the treats. Very sweet.

Here's a fun one to think about before I head to bed.
Why would a bunch of former military and intel drones now in government make a video telling the military to disobey the duly elected POTUS?
Anyone who thinks that's normal is whistling past the graveyard. That's the deep state coming to the surface.

His stunt as a red-shirt freshman was to help them cut down the championship net. Which he did without using the ladder. Flat-footed.

All in all, Jack Cassidy was the best murderer. He and Robert Culp were 3-timers, all in the '70s. Now, Patrick McGoohan is of course, the champion, 4-times, 2 in the '70s, 2 in the '90s.
Had Cassidy lived, he would've been at least a 4-timer. Culp was in a '90s episode, but he was the father of the murderer (his spoiled rotten son).

I can attest to that from second-hand knowledge. One of my mother's young girlfriends (she's only 82 or so), ran into him at some damn place in NC. It was in some restaurant, IIRC.
She and her husband were thrilled and she went up and spoke to him. She didn't ask for his autograph or anything, she spoke to him and said it was an honor and all that.
He basically told her to go away and go fuck herself.

I lost a friend last year from pancreatic cancer. He was having pain in his stomach, went to the doctor, was send home to die, was gone in less than a week. Dude was good guitar player, was older than me, but was my eyes and ears when it came to finding guitars. Most stuff I wasn't interested in, but he found me the crown jewel of my stash, only 175 of them ever made, and I looked for over 30 years. Not that I didn't see them, but they were sooo collectable they were always stoooopid money. He found one, and of all places in my home town were I grew up for 1/4 of the price they go for. It pisses me off. Cancer always takes the good ones and leaves the miserable bastards among us to reach draugr status.

Compilation of Jack Cassidy on Columbo:
https://is.gd/R7S7re
My favorite starts at 21:17 in. The actress there is Barbara Colby. She plays this woman who got wise to Jack Cassidy killing Pete Malloy, and thought she'd blackmail Jack. She was in way over her head -- never try to blackmail Jack Cassidy.
Now, interesting thing I just learned. Barbara Colby was murdered in real life around '74, and it remains unsolved. She had landed a role in the Phyllis spin-off of MTM.

The smell of dread, electronic death.
I once opened up the door on a remote instrumentation trailer that housed a custom radar doppler wind shear system that cost about a million dollars.
That smell was so strong it made my eyes water and I started sneezing uncontrollably.
The NASA Coops were experimenting with the A/C controls trying to change the system over to automatic lead-lag operation instead of the simple staged system that was in place. I was the lead engineer for the operational contractor.
They modified the system and just walked away without telling anyone.
Needless to say, it was all my fault.

That Barbara Colby murder is a mystery. She and a another actor friend of hers had come out of some acting class and walking back to their car in the parking lot.
Two men came up out of a van and shot them both. Both died, but he was able to give some slight description. There was no robbery attempt or anything.
It remains unsolved. Theories are mistaken identity killing -- or perhaps the killers had done something in the vicinity and thought Colby and the guy were witnesses.
