Santa Letters Expose Santa Has Real Mouse Helpers!

In a recent interview about the handling of Santa letters, Santa himself revealed a long kept secret. Mice help organize and maintain the many letters received at the North Pole. This news is shocking because it is the elves that have long been given credit for helping Santa with every detail of the Christmas preparation.

Santa Claus disclosed in an interview with the North Pole Gazette that Christmas letters begin pouring into his mailbox as early as September every year. Santa said that he realized he could not keep track of the gazillions of letters by himself, and he stressed that he did not want to overlook even one of those carefully crafted notes. Santa said that his elves are too busy making toys to assist with such a task so he had to be innovative in finding helpers.

As he looked around the North Pole he thought about the many animals that live there. It’s true that birds and fish often help with the delivery of the santa letters but they live outdoors, Santa needed help after the letters arrived, after they are in his house. Suddenly, like a bolt of lightning Santa thought about the thousands of mice that live with him and Mrs. Claus. The fact is that the mice like to stay indoors, where it is warm and cozy. And they are always asking what they can do to help out, but in the past it seemed their size kept them from being very helpful at all. However, even a little mouse can help organize mail.

Santa immediately set out to teach his mice how to organize the mail in a way that would expedite the entire system. Santa and Mrs. Claus labeled baskets for each of the various countries and for each type of animal. All the mice had to do was place each letter in the appropriate basket. This meant that a santa letter from a dog would go into the dog basket and a letter from a rabbit into the rabbit basket, and so on.

Hailei Corin, is Santa’s little public relations guru and she states “Santa can now insure that everyone that sends a letter to him will receive personalized letters from santa. It seems this has eased Santa’s mind immensely as he shared one of his greatest worries in the past was that he would somehow miss a few letters, and children somewhere waiting for letters from santa would be disappointed”.

SurfRecon Home Edition Allows Parents And Spouses To Find Hidden Pornographic Video On Their Home Computers

SurfRecon, Inc. announces the final release of its new digital-video detection feature for the SurfRecon Home Edition pornography detection and deletion software. The new feature allows a parent or spouse to quickly scan a home computer for pornographic digital videos and accurately categorize those files. The feature also allows a parent or spouse to view .FLV video files with the same Blur safety tool that is available for reviewing images.

SurfRecon Home Edition

A parent or spouse can also use the video review feature to dissect the video by scene change or by individual frames to quickly find pornographic content that may be hidden or obscured within an apparently clean file.

“Pornographic websites are flocking to digital video and .FLV files in particular,” said Matthew Yarro, President, SurfRecon, Inc. “If a computer had nothing but pornographic video on it—and no sexually-explicit images—someone checking the computer might think it was clean, when in fact it was not.”

SurfRecon uses patent-pending digital-signature matching technology to identify and categorize digital video as “Safe”, “Sexual” or “XXX Rated”. The digital-signature technology leverages the SurfRecon data store, the world’s most extensive database of known-pornographic-image-and-video signatures, in order to properly identify and categorize files. The database is continuously growing as it receives submissions from users and members of the law enforcement community worldwide.

“Unfortunately, there is no automated process that can guarantee that a child or spouse is not accessing pornography,” said Yarro. “Nothing can replace good old-fashioned supervision, but at least SurfRecon can speed-up that process and allow parents to stay one-step ahead of a super tech-savvy child.”

“Including a similar Blur tool for video review was important to us, because if pornographic images can be harmful and addictive, you can only imagine what a pornographic video could do to your mental health,” said Yarro.

Pricing and Availability
The SurfRecon Home Edition pornography detection and deletion software has an MSRP of $39.95 for the DVD version and an MSRP of $49.95 for the USB thumb drive version making it some of the most affordable home-forensic software available today. The software can be purchased directly from SurfRecon, Inc., as well as Amazon, Intel (sx.intel.com), CompUSA, CircuitCity, TigerDirect, and other finer retail stores.

Report Says Breast Surgery Still Top Of The Ops

The Harley Medical Group has reported a rise in breast augmentation surgery, which maintains its title as the most popular cosmetic surgery procedure requested by women. The increase has been driven by a boom in post baby surgery with mums now accounting for 60% of all breast augmentation patients.

Angela Fry, 38, from Maidenhead had a breast augmentation after she had her fourth child. She said: “After each birth my shape changed dramatically and my breasts sagged and lost their shape completely. For me, having a breast augmentation wasn’t about getting bigger breasts but getting them back to the shape and size that was right for my figure. Having the surgery has made me feel more feminine and given me much more confidence in myself.”

Breast augmentation surgery was first performed in 1895 and is today the most popular surgical cosmetic procedure for women. During the procedure an incision is made in the crease of the underside of the breast and the implant is inserted into a pocket created by the surgeon. The result is fuller and more evenly shaped breasts. The treatment takes around one hour to perform and a general anaesthetic will be administered to the patient.

Breast reduction is popular surgical option for women wanting to achieve more proportionally sized breasts Breast reduction surgery usually takes three hours to complete, depending on the size of the breasts. The operation is carried out under general anaesthetic, and patients stay in hospital for one to two nights. Breast reduction patients are required to wear a supportive bra for up to three months to keep the breasts well supported whilst healing takes place and ensure the best possible results.
