Baby drowned in bath while the mom checked Facebook

A teenage mother let her 8 month old baby drown in a bath while she checked messages on FB. Shannon Woods is 19 year old & she has got a 12 month jail sentence only. Although she received first-aid instructions on the phone but the baby couldn’t survive.

Shannon Woods also changed her statements a couple of times. She told lies & at one point, she got even tired of lying. She’s basically a troubled teenager. She was checking FB on her mobile at the time of tragedy. In fact she left the baby for 5 minutes in the bath & water was much deep.

The court was told that shortly before the baby died a cigarette burn had been found on its arm. But the girl said that a relation had accidentally dropped a cigarette end which had come into contact with the baby's skin.

The judge told Guildford Crown Court it was: 'criminal neglect of the most serious kind.'

She’s scared that the social services would now take her unborn child away. Gregory Fishwick said his client had a low IQ and had mental health problems and 'she loved her little daughter'. And this tragedy will have long term implications for his client. Moreover, the defendant's mother is also dying of cancer.

This case is again very saddening. A little baby died due to the negligent of the mother & we can’t ignore the fact that the mother is too young & maybe she’s really depressed. I mean who in her senses would leave the baby in the bath & check messages on the phone. This indicates a very abnormal behavior.

Guy Humiliated Himself To Get A Second Chance

Joe Page wearing a sandwich board in Brighton to apologize to his girlfriend.




This is a really funny real story from Brighton. Joe Page (26 years), who is a comedian decided to humiliate himself in front of the world because he cheated on his girlfriend.




He regretted going on a date with another woman. His girlfriend, Jess Little discovered about his infidelity through Facebook. Joe wanted to apologize to Jess so he wore a sandwich board and walked through Brighton to win back his girl.




The front of the board said, “I cheated on my girlfriend. I am humiliating myself to show I am sorry.”




On the back, it said: “I love her so much. I will do anything to get her back. I am so sorry.”

He said some people thought he was an idiot; some were laughing and men couldn't believe he was doing this for a girl. One woman thought this was quite romantic.

I hope they stick together from here onward. Everyone does not get second chances so Joe should really value the girl who took her back. While of course not many men humiliate themselves for a girl to apologize for something. And Facebook is quite a dangerous place...it reveals stuff!

The good news is that Joe and Jess might have a happy ending after all because of this stunt he pulled off. He persuaded Jess to talk it out and give him a second chance. Joe revealed later on...Jess did give him a second chance but he is still sleeping on the sofa!!!

Just William star targeted by stalker on Facebook

Child actor Daniel Roche, who played Just William in the recent BBC1 series, has been targeted by an internet stalker who set up a fake Facebook page in his name. But when Daniel’s mother asked Facebook to take the page down they failed to act – until The Mail on Sunday stepped in.

Well this has been the usual story of FB. They do nothing till the media steps in.

A fake page was also created in the name of 8 year old Isabella who played Violet Elizabth Bott in Just William. Daniel’s mom discovered about her son’s fake page when Isabella’s mother told her. Although Isabella’s parents somehow managed to persuade FB to delete that page, but when Daniel’s parents contacted FB, nothing was done.

Scotland Yard also failed to act after Mrs Roche complained to a police station in North London. But Scotland Yard said it had ‘no knowledge’ of a complaint having been made by Mrs Roche. Very weird!

Last year, the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Centre attacked Facebook for refusing to install a panic button which would allow users to report inappropriate behaviour on the site directly to CEOP.

A Facebook spokeswoman said:

‘It’s against Facebook’s rules to use a fake name or operate under a false identity and we provide our users with the tools to report anyone they think is doing this via report links on every page of our site.

These tools enable people to flag exactly why they are reporting someone, for example an inappropriate picture or a fake profile, and we urge all our users to make sure they are aware of how to use these reporting tools correctly.’

I don’t think any action is ever taken on FB. It’s only when the media gets in the picture, they delete pages or fake ids. They may have provided options, but it’s all useless. In fact a time comes when a person is so used to these fake ids that he/she stops complaining about them. Moreover, stalkers also confuse themselves as admirers, which is of course very amusing, as long as it’s not happening to you. It sounds like a broken record but FB never takes any action. Instead of wasting time on fake ids, it’s better to ignore them.


Social networking is so much fun. You get to meet people from all over the world. But it's not just FB, even other sites face the same problem. There are always people who want to abuse & invade the privacy of others. It doesn't matter what is their problem.

FB is not shutting down

Facebook is not shutting down but the term “Facebook shutting down March 15” is one of the top Google searches. The rumor did spread around Twitter and Tumblr & as usual people believed it & became panicky.

The rumor started with a Weekly World News piece (it’s a satire site) in which it was written that Mark Zuckerberg was stressed out by running the giant company. They wrote that Zuck said, "Without Facebook, people will have to go outside and make real friends. That's always a good thing."

It has been reported that Facebook recently took a $50 million investment from Goldman Sachs. They're hard at work and not about to quit.

At the moment, there’s nothing to worry about, if you’re hooked to FB. But the comments on the write-up Facebook will end on March 15^th are really hilarious & more than 15,000 left comments. There’s also a ‘Save FB’ petition.

However, Mark Zuckerberg Facebook page has been hacked & the hacker even left a status in which he suggested the site should let people invest in it rather than banks. Interestingly, more than 1800 people liked the update before the company took down its page.

Media Cravings Are Similar To Drug Addiction

Technology is getting powerful with each passing day. It is definitely becoming an integral part of our lives. But the most affected ones are the youth and the even younger generations because they have not seen a life without technology.


An interesting study regarding the same was published by the university's International Centre for Media & the Public Agenda (ICMPA) and the Salzburg Academy on Media & Global Change. This study has revealed some alarming results.


According to this study titled 'The World Unplugged' most students cannot spend a single day without media. 1000 university students were interviewed at 12 campuses from 10 countries that included UK, China and America. The students were not allowed to use laptops, cell phones, internet, social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter and were not even allowed to watch Television. They were allowed to read books and use their landline telephones.


They can never complete 24 hours straight without access to media and technology. 4 out of 5 students felt mental and physical distress, panic, confusion and isolation when they were forced to unplug from technology for one day. College students across the globe admitted that they were addicted to modern technology such as mobile phones, laptops, social networking sites (Facebook/Twitter) and even television.


Students expressed that they had cravings to use media. They had anxiety attacks and suffered from depression during the time they could not use media. One American student openly said that his craving was the same as the itching feeling of a cocaine addict.


Another revelation was that some students ended up having deeper conversations with others when they were unplugged. Only 21% of the students could feel the benefits of being unplugged.


I think the digital media has taken over...It is ruling our lives and will rule us Big Time! Obviously, the younger generations will be absolute media druggies because they have no sense of a life where there is no media but technology has made older tech savvy people quite an addict too. There is definitely no escape. The reason for the addiction could be many - isolation, comfort, solitude. There must be something that is taking away the real life out of our lives and is leading us to a virtual life.

Get A Grip Nation - Cherish The Good Times!

Well I already wrote before when I saw the silly Pepsi ad that what if we end up losing against India? Will we again blame our team and curse them like the ancient routine?


I am more than happy with my team and Shahid Afridi. Let us all look back and remember that when the team went for the World Cup, all the so called critics made fun of the team that it was a 'tooti phooti' team. No body even expected them to make it to the semi finals in the first place.


In fact, I really felt for Afridi when the poor man had to apologize to his nation for not winning the match against India because he knows back home people are so emotional and sentimental.


My issue is not with the cricket team but with the nation itself who can not take a game as a game. When they win, everybody wants to take the credit on their prayers but if they will lose then it is because they have fixed the match. No other nation reacts like this...England, Australia, West Indies, New Zealand - they love cricket too immensely but no body reacts the way we do. In fact, just look at the irony that cricket is England's national game and the country has not won a single world cup as yet but their nation does not curse them.


Let us not even bring the political shit here because that too has it toll on our team quite often but it is our behavior as a nation that sucks. Very snobbish facebook and twitter updates way before the match even began were posted. People were using words like 'badlay ki pyas'. 'Munni teri badnam hai or Sheila teri jawan hai'. Along with it, the advertisers also capitalized on the over all cheapness to trigger more sentiments of hatred.


Then we lost. People started changing their green pictures on networking sites immediately. They posted their team lost on purpose. They think the match was fixed. My friends - who are now restricted to social networking sites posted 'Today cricket died'. Then they followed everybody's message and posted, 'We love Shahid Afridi and he should not say sorry'. Next they posted 'Let us all wear our green shirts to support Shahid Afridi'.


I just feel there is too much of confusion. Everybody is following each other blindly. Don't you have a friggin brain of your own. Can't you stick to what you believe. Do you believe in cricket or is it about your own individual egos?


Yes, it hurts to lose an important match. We had a great opportunity to win the world cup after 1992 but come on, get a grip and become more sane. It is more important to cherish the good times than to miserably look at the bad stuff.


I think Shahid Afridi was the most impressive dude ever this time round. His comments and conferences were amazing. He spoke like a true sportsman and has this genuineness about him. Totally cute! Loved his response!

Women obsessed with their looks 'post photos on Facebook to compete for attention'

This isn’t any surprise. Researchers have discovered lately that women identify more strongly with their image and appearance than men. And such women feel better about themselves while posting pics on FB. In fact, they share more photos online.

Dr Stefanone and his team examined specific online behaviour on social network sites. They surveyed & studied 311 volunteers. They looked at the amount of time men and women spent managing profiles, the number of photos they shared, the size of their online networks and how promiscuous they were in terms of 'friending' behaviour.

But according to them, people whose self-worth is defined by family life and behaving in a morally upstanding manner 'spent less time online'. This implies that all those who share pics on FB don’t have morals & there is a huge question mark on their self-worth. 311 people are not enough. They need to carry out the survey on a much larger scale. And frankly speaking, it’s nice to hear things like promiscuous in terms of'friending' behaviour. This sounds quite judgmental.

Anyway Dr Stefanone also said: 'Although it's stereotypical and might have been predicted, it is disappointing to me that in the year 2011 so many young women continue to assert their self-worth via their physical appearance - in this case, by posting photos of themselves on Facebook as a form of advertisement…Perhaps this reflects the distorted value pegged to women's looks throughout the popular culture and in reality television.'

So what if people attach importance to looks & I don’t think it’s such a crime if you are in love with yourself. It’s just that they have to find fault in everything. It’s true that some people change their pics every now & then & even though they are not much to look at, everyone calls them hottie. And if they feel good about it, what’s the harm? I happen to know people who are quite ordinary looking but they derive pleasure whenever they see anyone who’s not much to look at. I think something is wrong with these people. Why don’t they carry out a study on it?

What I have seen is that all over the world people find fault with those who spent time on the net. They believe they don’t have lives. And what about all of us who work on the net? Does that mean we have no morals whatsoever? And just who is the fucking judge?

I change my pic quite often & I don’t think I’m competing with anyone in my circle. I believe everyone knows how he/she looks. When you have doubts & you want to hear lies, that might be a different story.

I just can’t totally agree with this study. It seems a bit judgmental to me. They had a case against such people & they bring in self-esteem & all that crap to prove their point. Although there is a possibility that some women are competing with others but that happens in real life as well. They may have complexes & so they change their pics to prove a point that they are sexy & hot. I think it has more to do with envy, jealousy & yeah some kind of competition. Anyone who is totally engrossed in his/her looks won’t have time for those who don’t know what the god-damn feeling is about. Yeah you can be vain about it but you don’t have time for others & what they are thinking & if they like your face or not. I’m so sorry to say but who gives 2 shit to those who are competing. I believe the only person you can compete with is yourself…when you start competing with others, it says a lot about your complexes. This study hasn’t elaborated on anything that was not known earlier on.

Another demented case of cyber-bullying

2 teenagers tricked a 15 year old in believing that she has an online boyfriend who later on committed suicide & they blamed the girl for this unreal death. They also created a bogus tribute page ‘RIP Jaydon Rothwell’ where 2000 people posted comments. They all were blaming this particular teenager. In fact she had been receiving threats till the police intervened & discovered that it was a bloody hoax. This happened in Britain. Had it been some other place like Pakistan, no one would ever get to know the real story.

These 2 girls had a row with the victim & they decided to create a fake account by the name of Jaydon Rothwell on FB.

However, when police checked the records of sudden deaths, it was found that no one ever existed by that name. We often hear about all kinds of cyber-bullying but this case is of course one of its kind. Those 2 girls even arranged a boy to meet that girl once. They even kissed each other & she really thought it was something special between the 2 of them. Then one day another girl scribbled a flirtatious wall on that fake Jaydon Rothwell page & naturally his gf dumped him. Very soon she got the news that Jaydon committed suicide as she dumped him. Those 2000 members were also pissed off. She received threatening calls & messages from people who believed it was true. Anyhow this hoax began in December & lasted for 3 months.

According to the bogus tribute page, Jaydon took a lethal cocktail of drink and drugs after his girlfriend accused him of being unfaithful.

The girl said: ‘I was grieving for someone who wasn’t real and felt I had been so gullible.’ Moreover her mother added: ‘This has been a threatening campaign against her just for their amusement and has wasted a lot of police time.’


Sergeant Paul Schofield, of Lancashire Police, said: ‘When all is said and done this is online bullying.

‘This could have been so much worse because there was a real possibility she could haves reacted to the news of his suicide. Social networking is a fantastic tool, but can be misused by a small percentage of people.’

It’s sickening to know that teenagers are hatching such ugly plots but this is human nature. Cyberbullying is nothing new. Although the net has been a great tool but some psychotic people will always abuse it. I believe on FB, it is still easier to protect yourself if you change the setting whereas on orkut, anyone could send you abusive scraps cause your scraps were open to all for a long time. Most of us left it, cause it was really annoying & some people just don’t have lives. They enjoy harassing people & the internet is the best place for them, cause they won’t ever be discovered particularly in Pakistan. Moreover, romance in real life can be so deceiving & the idea of one on FB is more of a joke.

Paris Hilton’s birthday cake stolen

Socialite Paris Hilton's 30th birthday cake was stolen by a Los Angeles musician, Paz. He gatecrashed the party & he stole the cake because he didn't want the cake to be served to the guests. There was something unusual about this $2000 cake.

Paz was not even invited to the party but he got into the bash through his well-connected buddy Kevin. He also posted on his Facebook page:

"I woke up this morning with a $2,000 birthday cake in my living room. It's big. It's red. It says 'Paris' and its delicious ... At an inebriated moment I decided no one was going to waste $2,000 worth of anything on my watch. I had to rescue that cake,"

Paz admits he had to come up with a scheme to get the cake out of the house without any of the security guards employed realizing what he was doing. He even managed to convince the security that he had been asked to remove the cake.
He explained: "In one fluid motion, I sidestep a confused waiter, seize the prize, and face to the door. I pass the security chief again on the way out. I nod purposefully ... he nods in return and 40 seconds later I'm in the front seat of a Nissan Maxima with 70lbs of awesome in my lap. Success!"
We love to cover stories on Paris Hilton. Ever since we created Speak Your Mind, Paris Hilton is one celebrity, we love to report about. What happened is of course funny but at the same time, it’s bad that her cake was stolen by someone. But the cake looks hideous. I seriously have my doubt if it could be delicious. Anyhow, she was presented another cake.

Amber Alerts on Facebook Now

Unfortunately, as much as we wouldn't want to hear such sad news, we do get to hear or watch on news that some kid has gone missing and that the parents are desperately looking for their children. Very often, radio alerts, city specific news updates are given so that anybody in that vicinity can help in finding such missing children. Text messages for such cases are also received if one has signed up. Responsible networks and organizations such as AOL, Yahoo, Google and Microsoft all help in disseminating such information.


And now facebook too will do this work of spreading the word around about missing children so that help is provided. Of course, this is all an optional feature and if one wants to specifically receive updates for his location, he will get updates only for that vicinity. Facebook is one of the most popular forms of viral communication and the word spreads around quickly, so it is hoped that this move will help in finding missing children.


The Amber alert program, which was established 15 years ago after the abduction and murder of its namesake, 9-year-old Amber Hagerman, has so far resulted in the recovery of 525 kids according to Ernie Allen, CEO of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).
