Vague News: A Growing Trend: Learning with a Short Attention Span
As the readers of The Cyberculture News can attest to, our writers have a very short attention span. But rest assured, all of our multiple personalities are not mentally ill. Some of the them actually have a secret agenda of trying to conquer ignorance by mastering mind over matter. That's like trying to save a rock from dieing.
Rocks have a life too you know. Don't believe any rock-like objects have a life? Well take a look at the following project from Stanford University and you shall see that one of the top universities in the World not only thinks that rock-like objects have lives, they are educating people how to save them with their Short Attention Span Science Theater.
Short Attention Span Theater. Hmm... short attention span learning. Maybe that's not such a crazy idea after all. Maybe a growing trend in education.

The Patriotic Thing to do: Vote and Buy a New Vehicle
In the interest of getting the economy back on it's feet, The Moron's Guide to Investing is reminding the car/truck buying market that the price for a gallon of gas is now priced where it was selling 17 months ago and it is now time for us to forget the $5.00/gallon and go purchase a new vehicle before the American public has to bail the automobile manufactures out with our tax dollars. In that we are so patriotic about revitalizing the U.S. economy, The Cyberculture News is placing free online ads for Chevrolet's Silverado, Ford's Flex and Lincoln's MKS to help stimulate interest in buying gas gusseling vehicles.
America... be patriotic, get out to vote on Nov 4th and at the same time go buy yourself that new truck or car you always wanted. Let's show the World that the citizens of the U.S.A. believe in a free enterprising democracy no matter which presidential candidate we vote for.
Politician vs Politician: The Right Way to Communicate or How to be Elected the Village Idiot.
Knowing what you want to say and having the words come out that way is easier said then done. When former Secretary of State, General Colin Powell explained his decision to support Barack Obama for president in 2008, it was the Right Way to Explain a Tough Decision. The following YouTube video of Republican Presidential Candidate, John McCain campaigning in western Pennsylvania may just be one reason why McCain's miserable campaign gets worse.
Rest assured for all was not loss, McCain was elected as the new Village Idiot.

Vague News: Looking at the Future of Virtual Publishing
Reporting Live (hoping to get an ad sponsorship from Microsoft Live)
from "The Book of Voodoo Communications" (notebook computer with wireless access to the Internet),
The Cyberculture News discovered the future of virtual publishing.
According to Wikipedia, NXTbook Media is a digital publishing company that provides the creation, distribution, and tracking of digital magazines and other digital publications.
Nxtbook Media site states that their "digital magazines offer publishers the unique opportunity to optimize their publications with video, audio and hyperlinks while saving the money traditionally spent on printing."
What's really cool about this site is that it offers a free DIGITAL MAGAZINE NEWSSTAND called,
Nxtstand.
In these economically hard times, why spend money when one can read a magazine online for free? And BTW, Nxtbook Media was recently named one of the
100 Best Places To Work In Pa.
No... The Cyberculture News is not affiliated in any way with Nxtbook Media and is not receiving a fee for endorsing their services.
Although, this piece does contain a subliminal message directed to Nxtbook Media: Please, please, please transform The Cyberculture News into one of your cool digital magazines.

Vague News: Society of Dead Philosophers Comment on Government Bank Plan and War in Afghanistan
News Flash! This just in from the Society of Dead Philosophers.
A 125 year old member of the SDP (Society of Dead Philosophers), Karl Marx exclaims that "Democracy is the road to socialism." Yah... right. Meanwhile in related news, we have Socialism: American Style where President Bush today announced a sweeping government plan to partially nationalize several US banks to help restore confidence in the financial system.
A second member of the Society of Dead Philosophers, Friedrich Engels had reported that the Afghans are a brave, hardy, and independent race; they follow pastoral or agricultural occupations only ... With them, war is an excitement and relief from the monotonous occupation of industrial pursuits.
Dude! This Engels stuff is over 100 years old and is relevant to The “reality” of war in Afghanistan today. We got to get this over to the Pentagon right away.
Vague News: The Moron's Guide to Investing: A Strategy for Reducing Your Cost for Gas
A butterfly flaps its wings in the Saudi desert, causing the State Department to release a warning of increased terrorist activity. The futures market flips out, sending the price of crude skyward.
The higher price on the futures market makes it more expensive for refiners to acquire crude to refine into gas. When the refiner's work is done, the emerging gas will be priced accordingly higher. This raises the rack price and the prices on the spot markets.
Refining oil into gas isn't instantaneous, and there can be a lag before the higher price of the oil is reflected in higher gas prices paid by jobbers and oil companies. That, of course, didn't stop them from raising prices the moment the futures market jumped. So now that the oil that was purchased for refining at a higher cost is ready to hit the market as gas, the oil companies will raise prices again.
This double-dipped price is passed onto dealers, which is then inflated yet again so the dealers can turn a profit.
You paid more for gas thanks to a butterfly.
The Moron's Guide to Investing has thoroughly researched the reason for the high cost of gas. In order to save you some time in reading a boring 2 thousand word report, here are two pictures illustrating what needs to be done to reduce the price you are paying for gas.
Vague News: Asking for a Congressional Inquiry into the Price of a Gallon of Gas
Gas Prices Vary Widely Throughout
Gas in the vicinity of Albemarle County on Monday, was about $3.35 a gallon for regular unleaded while up the road a bit in Goochland, you could have paid $2.78. Why the price difference you may ask... well according to the president of Tiger Fuel in Charlottesville, Va., it all comes down to how far away the locales are from the pipeline. Interesting, but how does he explain why the prices varied all around the Charlottesville area? BTW, the Virginia state average for the price of a gallon of regular unleaded gas is $3.122.
Commuters Empty Old Lyme Gas Station Offering Discount of $1.99 per gallon. The Connecticut state average is $3.25/gal.
Local fuel prices inch closer to $2.50 a gallon A new work week opens with gasoline prices dropping to a low of $2.51 a gallon in the Canton Ohio area. The Ohio state average is $2.937/gal.
Minnesota gas prices falling as low as $2.59. The Minnesota state average is $2.947/gal
The average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gas in Pennsylvania is $3.171/gal which is in contrast to the $2.69/gallon at a truck stop near Carlisle, Pa.
In light of the fact that our society is so dependent upon our cars and trucks, maybe it is time for some congressional inquiries into the reasons for the wide spread in the cost of a gallon of gas, locally and nationwide.

Vague News: Seeking Answers for the Financial Crisis from The Society of Dead Philosophers
Whoa! Those are some portentous headlines and speaking of fueling superstitions, here's a Flash of Genius from The Book of Voodoo Communications: “The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see" ~ Winston Churchill.
So... in order to help find a resolution to this financial mess, the Cyberculture News literally followed Churchill's words and researched members of The Society of Dead Philosophers and their thoughts pertaining to wealth and money. Here's what we ungraved from the recent deceased to those with 500 years of membership in this secret society of the dead.
Make money your god and it will plague you like the devil. ~ Henry Fielding
Ah ha! Now we are getting somewhere because recently Pope Benedict XVI

Vague News: The Day when Time Stood Still
Sign of the times
The financial crisis that has rocked the world over the last few weeks will go down in the history books as changing the face of Time.
The National Debt Clock. (Associated Press)
Many people are wondering exactly How Poor Are We? Hahaha. We're now so poor that the devices we've created to tally just how poor we are don't work anymore. This Is How Bad It's Gotten: Debt Clock Runs Out Of Digits. In addition, the US forced to dump dollar. Oh No! Is this the previously predicted Eve of the End of the World a month late? Not really, but according to The Book of Voodoo Communications, the running out of digits on the Debt Clock correlates with the day when time stood still.
Vague News: Internet is a Cesspool: $hit Happens!
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (AdAge.com) -- The internet is fast becoming a "cesspool" where false information thrives, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said yesterday.
The stress induced by the current financial crisis even has an effect on Google's CEO Eric Schmidt. How else would you explain his statement of: "We don't actually want you to be successful" in a speech he made to mass media leaders. Well, just goes to show that even the rich and powerful that make their money working and playing in cesspools have their bad days. Then again, speaking strictly from a philosophical point of view, "$hit happens!"

Vague News: Option Trading on the Enlistment of Military Draftees within the next 14 Months
In light of Obama's and McCain's thoughts pertaining to activating the military draft, The Cyberculture News has created an option trading opportunity entitled: U.S. Military Draft to Enlist New Draftees by Dec 31, 2010 on the Prediction Markets where players can buy and sell contracts that are relevant to the U.S. military activation of the draft and the enlistment of new draftees before Dec. 31, 2010.
Naturally, only time will tell whether young American men and women are going to be drafted into the military. Just keep one thing in mind when you are pondering this subject, Russian army to begin autumn draft on October 1, 2008.
Vague News: What's Behind the Names of the Candidates?
With only 4 weeks till the presidential election, many voters are still indecisive about the candidates. There is nothing wrong with that for we are a waiting till the last minute to discriminate society. Besides that, the prudent voter needs to have all the facts in front of them before they cast their vote.
The staff at The Cyberculture News has been researching the not newsworthy facts about the candidates to help all voters make a wise and sound decision when they go to the polls and vote. The most important and relevant research on the candidates that we discovered is exactly what's behind their names. Before we give you that information and since this is a presidential election, the smart voter should know what is behind the "President of the United States." Rearranging the letters of 'President of the United States' produces: "Stupidest friend to the Senate." Some people will tell you that anagram fits President George Bush to the tee.
When we rearranged the letters from 'Senator John McCain' we got: 'No! Isn't major chance.' 'Governor Sarah Palin' anagrams to'Horror's plane vagina.' Yup! The Democrats are loving us for discovering this material.
Most voters will laugh knowing that when we rearranged the letters from 'presidential race' we came up with 'Reptile's radiance.' Finally, 'Barrack Obama' reveals 'Amok crab Arab' and 'Senator Joe Biden' discloses 'Job-oriented, sane.'

CNN's Citizen Journalism Goes
`Awry' With False Report on Jobs
Thinking about running for President? How to lease and flease your way to power and riches at the tax payer's expense.
$700 billion of loose change is certainly a motivating factor for money hungry control freaks, beltway bandits and secret societies to make a bid for leasing and managing the U.S. Government. In addition, I am sure there are many foreign investors from China, Russia, Iran, N. Korea and Venezuela that would be interested in managing the U.S. Government's affairs. Also, keep in mind that this concept would always guarntee that the U.S. Government would have a balanced budget.
Anyway, that is the premise of my political platform when I run for President in 2028 or 2032. Register to vote now so that I can count on your vote in twenty to thirty years.
