“Peace Day” – August 21, 2015 – McWhopper Fiasco

I just read an article, about the McWhopper Fiasco, on my friend’s website, Tasty Nerds.com. Here is the link. http://tastynerds.com/mcdonalds-rejects-burger-kings-proposal-mcwhopper/

The story is about a proposal from Burger King to McDonald’s, for them to come together as friends and not rivals on “Peace Day” 2015. The article goes into detail about the proposal and my friend’s reactions to McDonald’s response.

After reading the article, I could not help but to remember about a similar incident in a movie. Many many people love and watch this movie, every year at Thanksgiving, without fail. I wrote a paragraph about it below, as the best example that I could think of to demonstrate two rivals coming together for a common cause.

In the movie “Miracle On 34th Street”, two of the biggest stores in New York, Macy’s and Gimbel’s, came together and started operating as friends instead of enemies. I say as friends, because they didn’t actually merge in the movie, they would just tell their customers if the other store was selling an item that they did not carry, or that they were out of at the time. In the movie, Macy’s did not have a pair of roller skates that a little girl told the Macy’s Santa that she wanted for Christmas. Well. The Santa knew that Gimbel’s had them for sale. He was able to get the Mother away from the little girl and tell her where to find the skates. When the word got out about the “helpful” Santa at Macy’s, Gimbel’s decided to approach Macy’s and see if the two stores could start telling their customers which store had what items for sale. Let’s say, (I’m saying this, it wasn’t in the movie) Macy’s would tell their customer if Gimbel’s had bedroom slippers for the man of the house that they didn’t have, and Gimbel’s would tell their customer if Macy’s had a particular nightie that they didn’t have. They were working together peacefully as friends instead of enemies.

“Peace Day” is a very important start to what could be a world changing event. It is possible that “Peace Day” could one day be observed and celebrated in many countries all over the world. Wouldn’t that be something? If other countries were to celebrate a day of the observance of peace. A day where, for at least a period of 24 hours, there were no gun shots, no bombs, no grenades, no torpedoes, or any other explosive device being shot off, and no screams from stabbings. If there was absolute quiet from these types of noises

I am a dreamer and an optimist. My dreams would take it a step further and visualize all of the countries that observed “Peace Day” liking it so much that they would see just how long the peace could or would last.  It would be a nice thing to measure how many days or weeks or months that could pass without the horrible noises. If everybody would realize that it’s the violence that kills so many people, then there could absolutely be a change toward world peace. Just think about how many families and whole communities and possibly even civilizations have been wiped out due to the violence. It is my hope and prayer that “Peace Day” will continue for many many years.

Family Discovers Disgusting Secret Hiding In Their New Mattress.

 

Published on May 29, 2015

They will not be shopping at that store ever again after this chilling find. This is the horrible moment a family made a grim discovery inside a newly-purchased mattress.

americanoverlook.com   is the website where this article is originally posted.

******************************************************************************

Up until now, I always thought that Beautyrest was up in the top mattress makers in the USA. After seeing this, I will not ever buy a Beautyrest Mattress. Not only will I not but a Beautyrest Mattress myself, but I will tell all of my friends not to but one, and to pass the word around what their practice is. Their practice is to cover old disgusting mattresses with new tops and sell them as new mattresses. I also have a website where I try to pass on interesting, informative, and/or important information to my readers. This will definitely be on it, along with the video. Even though the people are speaking Spanish, you can tell from the video exactly what they are talking about. This is just a disgrace for any company to have such shady and disreputable practices as what I have just seen. I hope they get hit with a huge fine and a really bad review from the Better Business Bureau!!!!!

I felt this was important enough to copy in its’ entirety.

Family Discovers Disgusting Secret Hiding In Their New Mattress.

I Feel Sick!

 

New Mattress

When you buy a new product, you expect a NEW product. Unfortunately for some like the family featured below, new doesn’t mean the same thing for everyone.

Watch as this Spanish-speaking family opens up a bright new mattress – when you see what they found inside, you’ll want to throw up!

They pulled off the protective wrapping of their “brand-new” mattress, and it really looks beautiful and actually well, new. But once they got a whiff of the abhorrent smell emanating from the mattress, they knew something was definitely wrong.

So they started pulling it apart and someone grabbed the video camera – luckily they were able to document the whole experience.

On the inside of the mattress they found mold, mildew and all sorts of disgusting junk. They kept removing the padding and found that this wasn’t a new mattress at all, just an old disgusting one with a new coat of paint – or in this case, a mattress cover.

Deceitful business practices like this are unacceptable in every case – it’s insane that the company even thought that they could get away with this scheme. Unfortunately for them, most people have noses though.

What do you think should happen to the company that decided to try and sell such a horrible product? Sound off in the comments!

 

All About That Spay

********************************************************

This is so unique and very important for people to pay attention to, especially if they have unaltered pets. There is a way to prevent massive numbers of animals (over 3,000,000) from being put down each year. That way is to prevent them from ever even being born by having your pet fixed. This is a cute video and song about it.  I copied the whole thing.

All About That Spay

Dr. Renee Brockett from Nolan River Animal Hospital sings with her veterinary technicians in “All About that Spay,” a parody promoting spaying and neutering pets.

Posted: Tuesday, June 23, 2015 3:58 pm

By Jessica Pounds/features@trcle.com

A Cleburne veterinarian is bringing awareness to pet overpopulation in a YouTube video she released last week.

The song, “All About That Spay,” parodies Meghan Trainor’s “All About That Bass,” and features Dr. Renee Brockett and her veterinary technicians from Nolan River Animal Hospital, singing and dancing as they warn about the consequences of not spaying or neutering your pets.

Brockett said the idea for the parody just popped into her head one day.

“‘All About That Bass’ was very popular; my kids were always singing it and it just gets stuck in your head,” Brockett said. “One time instead of ‘all about that bass,’ ‘all about that spay’ just popped into my head. I started putting pen to paper and within a week I had a pretty good version of the song written out.”

Brockett said her husband, Josh, helped with some of the wording.

“We had to get the right number of syllables and the rhyming down and that took a couple of weeks,” she said. “We were thinking about how we could do this and some people told us to keep it simple, but we went in the exact opposite direction. We wanted it to be done very professionally.”

Josh Brockett said the video only took four hours to film.

“We called Dick Gimble who has a recording studio at McLennan Community College down in Waco,” he said. “He played the bass in the video and brought in the other musicians. It was all a production around Renee’s voice; it was really her singing in the video.”

Josh Brockett said Troy Shaw, a videographer from Waco, filmed the video.

Tattoo Ink Gives A False Postive On Mom’s Cancer Scan

****************************************************************************** This article, like many others is from Little budha. I felt that it was important enough to copy and share here. This is a great preventative article in that it can warn people with tattoos ahead of time to beware of the false positive cancer diagnosis. That way they can ask for further diagnostic tests be done to either confirm or negate (rule out) the diagnosis of cancer.

Tattoo Ink Gives A False Positive On Mom’s Cancer Scan

By

It doesn’t get much more terrifying than learning that you’ve been diagnosed with a life-threatening disease.

For many people, learning of a cancer diagnosis can be completely debilitating, just like many of life’s curveballs. During these difficult times, you trust what a doctor tells you, but what happens when even the best doctor is mistaken? A California woman learned the hard way that sometimes a false positive can be the best thing to happen to you.

The mother of four was probably devastated when she went for a recent PET scan to learn that her cervical cancer had spread to her pelvis. She was scheduled to have her reproductive organs removed, when the scan left doctors concerned that the cancer cells were spreading so quickly. The doctors went through with the surgery, but were shocked to find that the cells that were shown to be cancerous during the scan were actually completely normal.

The cells near her pelvis that lit up on the imaging machine were actually ink deposits from the multiple tattoos that covered her legs. The woman’s doctor, Dr. Ramez Eskander, told CBS in the following video, “What we wanted to do is educate physicians, patients, families. When there is a PET scan that shows a bright lymph node, if a patient has significant tattoos or body art, than you have to be cognizant that these might be false positives.”

If you know someone who has multiple tattoos, this is an interesting story to share with them, but either way, it’s completely shocking.

DIY Experts Demonstrate All Sorts Of New Uses For Vodka
December 25, 2014

 

Vodka, besides being used in cocktails as a social lubricant, has a wide variety of uses. Of course, it’ll keep you warm in the winter, but did you know it could be used as a bug repellent? The video below shows off a few different uses for Vodka that you may not know about. According to the popular Youtube channel Crazy Russian Hacker, these tips are widely known about in Russia. We’re not sure if that’s true, but we know that none of us here at SF Globe had heard about these tricks before now!

The video below explains how vodka can be used to improve your hair and clean your bathroom, but there are several other uses as well. Esquire posted an article saying that vodka is also a good cure for poison ivy and jellyfish stings. Jellyfish stings aren’t something I have to worry about on a daily basis, but it’s nice to know what to do should I encounter an angry jellyfish.
Watch the video below to see detailed instructions on how to use vodka in a variety of ways you probably didn’t know were possible. The video also does a great job of explaining why vodka is doing the things it’s doing. If you thought this video was interesting, make sure to share it with your friends!

This Grocery Store Surprises Its Customers With Some Holiday Cheer

******************************************************************************

This post from Facebook just goes to show that there is more than one way for big companies to give their customers cheer at Christmas time. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

******************************************************************************

December 1, 2014

 

It took a team of cashiers, 13 different hidden cameras, and a whole lot Christmas spirit to pull off this epic holiday surprise!

Edeka, Germany’s largest supermarket chain, decided to surprise its shoppers with a seasonal treat. In an attempt to liven up the otherwise boring chore of grocery shopping, these cashiers opted to delight their patient shoppers with a choreographed orchestra that beeped the holiday classic, “Jingle Bells.”
According to Wikipedia, “Jingle Bells” was written by James Lord Pierpont way back in 1857. Interestingly enough, it was originally published under the title, “One Horse Open Sleigh.” Though, I think we can all agree, the newer title seems to roll off the tongue a bit better.

Life Was Perfect When Her Son Was Born. 14 Weeks Later, Everything Changed
December 1, 2014

 

Ten years ago, Kellie Haddock gave birth to her first child. She and her husband, AJ, were absolutely on top of the world. When their son, Eli, was just fourteen weeks old, the family got into a horrific car accident. AJ was killed upon impact, and Eli was severely injured. This video tells Kellie’s heart-wrenching story of the tragedy, but then follows her ten years later along an amazingly uplifting journey to thank all of the people that helped save her infant son. 

We at SF Globe saw this video and were absolutely stunned by how incredible Kellie is. Her kind spirit and warm personality are contagious, and seeing how her perspective is so overwhelmingly positive after she has witnessed such tragedy is beyond inspiring. Kellie’s story really reminded us that it’s important beyond measure to take a step back and acknowledge all the things we have in our lives to be thankful for. She is the perfect role model in exhibiting such gratitude for the people who positively impacted her life, even if they are strangers that were simply doing their jobs. It’s simply beautiful to see the reactions of the medical professionals as Kellie introduces herself and thanks them for their role in saving Eli. This is the perfect reminder that the every-day heroes in our lives, like Eli’s doctors, deserve praise for the immensely hard work they do.
Be sure to grab some tissues before watching Kellie’s story. It’s definitely a tear-jerker, but we promise that by the end you’ll feel uplifted in a wonderfully positive way! This video inspired us to voice our appreciation for the people in our lives, so we encourage you to tell someone today how grateful you are to have them in your life.

 

A Brilliant New Way To Peel Potatoes

I can honestly say I have never seen anyone attack a bag of potatoes like this brilliant Russian genius does in this video. Using just a few household items, he was able to expertly peel an entire bag of potatoes in a fraction of the time that it would’ve taken using the traditional method.

When he started with making your own power-drill-toilet-brush, we here at SFG were a bit skeptical. But, as soon as we saw the finished product, we couldn’t wait to share it.
This incredible video got us thinking: what other clever ways could someone peel a potato? For instance if you don’t have a spare (clean) toilet brush and power drill laying around. One trick we really liked requires only a bowl of ice water. Start by cooking your potatoes in boiling water. After they are cooked through, dump those spuds into a nearby bowl of ice water. You don’t want to freeze these suckers, so pull them out after a few seconds. This part of the process is basically so you can handle these piping hot potatoes in your hands. Then, all you have to do is carefully rub the potato in your hands and watch the skin slide right off with incredible ease.
Still, we are very impressed with this man’s technique. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts and feelings in the comment section below.
