Hey guys! How are you all doing, I hope that everything is going well over there and as for me I am doing well over here amid a bothersome health issue but I am going to try to not let that stop me from writing another tidbits. But how about that game between Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears two nights ago on Thursday night?! Of course some of you already know that I am a huge fan of Green Bay Packers, I have been a fan of Green Bay Packers at the age four in the year of 1991 which is somewhat irony because as some of you know that Brett Favre’s number was four when he was playing for Green Bay Packers after being traded to Green Bay Packers from Atlanta Falcons in the year of 1992 which is a year after I became a fan of the Green Bay Packers. I very much remember watching Don Majkowski who were Green Bay Packer’s starter quarterback at that time that I became a fan of the team Green Bay Packers, Don Majkowski had played as Packer’s starter quarterback from the years of 1989 to the year of 1992 when he was injured in the game against Cincinnati Bengals and he was replaced by the backup quarterback namely Brett Favre then that became a history from on at that time that we know as gunslinger Brett Favre. That is the birth of Brett Favre, which that is something that I cannot forget and in that year I was 5 years old, one year of being a Packers fan and the succession of Green Bay Packers team is credited to Brett Favre as at that time (Majkowski era) it wasn’t much of a good team so Brett Favre immediately turned the team into a Superbowl contender every years since then the day Don Majkowski was injured. What a teary story I know, especially if you are a fan of Green Bay Packers and thankfully we had a backup quarterback who were studying Brett Favre very closely to know what it needs to keep the team as a Super Bowl contender and you know who we are talking about; none other than Aaron Rodgers who gave us a super bowl win just in 3 years which is sooner than Brett Favre as it took Brett Favre 5 years to win us a Super Bowl.
Okay, that is enough of the football and my favorite team Green Bay Packers I apologize. Actually I do want to say one more thing, Green Bay Packers won a victory against Chicago Bears with the score of 26-10 and both teams were severely banged up unfortunately but at least Packers chalked up a win after losing to Dallas Cowboys last week.
10-22-2016 Tidbits
So it is time for the tidbits dating October 22, 2016 on Saturday night at 11:05PM. However I am sure that by the time I am finished with this article, it will going into October 23, 2016 but October 22, 2016 would be technical since that is the date when I started writing this article and as usual I have started blogging late once again. It seems that for a bit over a week now I have started blogging at very late, I usually search for something interesting information with some sources online around in the afternoon and writes down on the word from Microsoft Office 365 that I pay every year for subscription because it allows me to have a writing application like Word on all platforms such as iPhone, MacBook Pro and Windows 10 desktop so that way if I am ever out somewhere that I thought of a good topic to talk about on here then I can get access to the document to add a new topic to the blogging topics list. Anyway I guess I will start with the tidbits, for some of you who are new readers and don’t understand what tidbits is. I suggest that you go to the top of this website, look for a search box at the top of the website in the right corner and from there type in the words “Tidbits” then from there you will see a list of several tidbits articles. A few of them especially the earliest ones will explain what tidbits are so that you can get an idea of what tidbits article is.
Donald Trump Calls A Oscar-Winner Deaf Actress “Retarded”
How awful are you Donald Trump? Being racists, sexism and radical or extremist isn’t enough for you that you had to add another word to your list such as audism or ableism? In this case, the proper word is audism but ableism is also another thing on your list as you insulted a reporter with arthrogryposis who works for The New York Times and arthrogryposis is where the person has congenital joints in some areas. This isn’t about the reporter of The New York Times with arthrogryposis named Serge Kovaleski, I am now talking about another person who is actually have more recognition than Serge Kovaleski, namely Marlee Matlin who happens to be a Deaf actress that won the Oscar and she is a successful actress on both television and in films too. We in the Deaf community does not look at Deaf or Hard of Hearing as a disability but unfortunately audism or ableism like Donald Trump and millions more people do look at it that way. We look at it as culturally. Nonetheless, some of you may not know or may know that Donald Trump had his own television show calls Celebrity Apprentice where he had invited a few celebrities to contest against each others and get rewards by Donald Trump to pay any charities that the winner choose. On Celebrity Apprentice set, a few of the people who were employees under Donald Trump for Celebrity Apprentice at that time came out and shared in the public that Donald Trump have trash-talked about Marlee Matlin more than anything along with calling her retarded. Apparently Donald Trump is the one who is retard to think that any of us being Deaf or Hard of Hearing means that we have mentally retardation and that is very inaccurate. Donald Trump had the audacity to make fun, insults and mocks his employees?! Makes me think how he would treat us Americans and the employees under the white house or government. Or more scarier thought on how he would treat our allies or other countries that we are hoping to build a relation with especially Russia.
While these employees under Donald Trump for Celebrity Apprentice came out to share with the public about how Donald Trump treated Marlee Matlin and some news outlet tries to get a confirmation from Marlee Matlin herself. She couldn’t confirm, however she wouldn’t deny the confirmation either and that should say it all right there. Marlee Matlin have responded saying that she cannot confirm nor cannot deny that, however that being called retarded is a hurtful words and there is a reason that she cannot confirm is because she signed disclosure agreement contract with Donald Trump under Celebrity Apprentice that anything has happened inside the television show Celebrity Apprentice cannot be shared with anyone or anywhere outside so obviously by ruling it would consider her breaking the disclosure agreement and she would be demanded to pay back what she was rewarded in the Celebrity Apprentice along with some fines or whatnot so it is understandable but the important thing here is that she did not deny it while at the same time trying to drop a hint without breaking the disclosure agreement between both.

In case if you don’t know what audism and ableism means then here are the definitions for the both of these words.
Audism is the notion that one is superior based on one’s ability to hear or to behave in the manner of one who hears, or that life without hearing is futile and miserable, or an attitude based on pathological thinking which results in a negative stigma toward anyone who does not hear.
Ableism is discrimination in favor of able-bodied people.
Twitter Bidders Changed Their Mind
It looks like these bidders which I have mentioned the last or two before that in the tidbits article that a few of companies who were interested in bidding for Twitter and that was Google, Microsoft, Apple, SalesForce and Disney. There are a few more other bidders but these are more important than the others, the bidders for Twitter seems to have changed their mind to acquire Twitter from the CEO of Twitter Jack Dorsey and to be honest with you I am actually thrilled about that. Why was I thrilled? Because I was very weary about two bidders in particular, SalesForce and Disney who were interested in acquiring Twitter. SalesForce is known for clouding business that helps the people to grow their business and marketing. SalesForce was the one with strongest interested bidder, that made me very weary about that because they specialize in clouding and marketing the most while Twitter is one of the social media giants. I just don’t think that SalesForce would be suitable to run Twitter, as SalesForce is meant for a business which is what they are major in and to have a marketing or clouding major to fiddle with one of the giant social media websites? In my opinion that with them, Twitter would go in the same direction that MySpace took a few years ago and that is what killed MySpace almost overnight by being acquired by people who majors in music to fiddle with one of the fast growing social networking website. After the acquisition, MySpace were immediately changed what MySpace were famous for, a social networking website to an aspiring musician website so MySpace were killed in the process.
Disney? I look at Disney as a kiddie company, we don’t need a kiddie company to fiddle with one of the major social media websites and who knows what turning Twitter to kids social media website. Jack Dorsey, I apologize that you couldn’t successfully get some bids for Twitter but I believe that it’s for the greater good and I think that Twitter is better off in your hands considering that you are the one who originally built Twitter from the grounds up. I know you have a problem with earning profits from Twitter, this is why I am recommending that you hire a marketing team and analysis team separately to find a way to create smarter revenue system or some kind for Twitter.
Time Warner Have Been Bought by AT&T
You read that right, Time Warner have been acquired by a cellular, networking and cable company AT&T. Guess how much that AT&T paid for to acquire Time Warner? A whopping $85 billion dollars. That means $85,000,000,000.00 cash paid to acquire Time Warner by AT&T. What do I think of that? A bit scary to be honest with you because of that one division that is under Time Warner that I am a big fan of and that would be DC Comics. DC Comics is under Warner Bros but Warner Bros is a division of the Time Warner that have been acquired by AT&T. Time Warner have a several divisions and here is the list of the divisions under Time Warner that AT&T have acquired.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_assets_owned_by_Time_Warner
After you reading the list that I provided above on Wikipedia, that probably somewhat make sense to why it was $85 million dollars that AT&T paid for the Time Warner along with all of their assets (divisions and among others) including DC Comics. So from forward on now, any DC comics such as Batman, Superman, Supergirl, The Flash, Green Arrow, Green Lantern and others will be coming from AT&T. No it will not says AT&T, it will still says DC Comics and is managed under Warner Bros but the orders will be coming from AT&T. I just hope that AT&T knows what they are doing and don’t screw up anything especially with DC Comics or anything under Warner Bros such as their movies or their television shows such as The Flash, Gotham, Supergirl and The Arrow. I would love to hear about your opinion on this about AT&T acquisition of Time Warner and if you are a fan of DC comics then I would like to know your opinions on that as well by leaving the comments below please.

Lawmakers Trying To Stop Hacking Americans Computer by Feds
There is a ruling that is in the congress says that the new ruling will allow the federal agents to obtain a search warrant to hack in all the American’s computers at home at once. Meaning that if the ruling is to be passed through the congress then the ruling would allow the federal agents to obtain a search warrant that allows them to hacks in our computers, laptops and other devices that we have at home at once! So imagine a federal agent obtaining a search warrant that allows the federal agent to hacks every computers of ours at our house at once without us acknowledge them doing so? The privacy advocates in the congress are trying everything in their power to stop the ruling from being passed and be effective on December first of this year 2016. So that means that if privacy advocates fails to stop the new ruling in the congress then pretty much all of our computers will be hacked and grab all the information we have on our computers for the federal agents to look through to see what every one of us have on the computer including our personal information on December 1, 2016. This isn’t good, I am sure that once giant online companies such as Google, Microsoft, Apple and Facebook fights against it then we may have a better chance of stopping the ruling because at the moment all we have is some privacy advocates in the congress.
