CHILLING

Miguel finally got our AC installed yesterday. We came up on a few things and saved a lot. He did a great job of installing it too. This baby is pretty efficient in cooling our room. He just needs to make a few more seals and we're set.Now that we have everything we planned on to live comfortably it is quite a contrast to what it was like when we first moved in here. Before it was having to borro

Sayang and I was walking around at the Gardens one evening, can't recall if we actually had already watched a movie or we were just shopping that evening. As we were jalan jalaning, she asked me, if you had a chance to go on a first date with me again, where will you bring me....Alexis was just around the corner, and I immediately said, Alexis !! Lets go for a date. Sayang was on her salad diet,

Filed under: Handsets, Nokia, T-Mobile, GSM, EDGEWe didn’t really expect the 2760 to land on T-Mobile for another month or so, but crazy things happen when you send out dummy phones to retail partners well ahead of the official launch date. An eagle-eyed tipster spotted Nokia’s new low-end hotness (an oxymoron? you decide) for [...]

A new trailer has been released by film studio Warner Bros., offering famished fans another taste of the marvel that is to come by way of “The Dark Knight,” complete with the Joker’s unnerving madness, Two Face’s sick logic and Batman’s unrelenting opposition to crime. The second full-length trailer for “The Dark Knight,” directed by Christopher Nolan and with Christian Bale reprising the lead role, has made its official debut. Available for downloading at WhySoSerious.com and for viewing here, the trailer is notably different from the one released in December.

Northern India was cold, really cold. We were told that it was the worst winter in 90 years, and that in China millions of Chinese were stuck because of sudden snow on their way home for Chinese New Years. Northern India, and especially Pushkar isn’t well prepared for this kind of cold, having no heating [...]

Chilling out to some telly on the Samsung AccessThe Vu is going to end up stealing the bulk of the spotlight when AT&T's initial Mobile TV devices launch in May, but the Samsung Access has one key advantage over its sexier stablemate: aggressive pricing. The wide-load candybar (thanks to the landscape display) will run $100 less than the Vu while offering the same quantity and quality of brainpower-sapping television. In fact, we imagine there'll be a contingent of folks who actually prefer the physical keypad (gasp!). We wish Samsung had put just a little bit more thought and energy into the Access' physical design -- there's no rule saying a $199 phone has to be ugly, last time we checked -- but it's functional, looks and feels solid, and you'll still manage to impress the neighbors when

A story that I wish was an April Fool's joke:WAYCROSS, Ga. -- Eleven students got together and plotted to kill their teacher, even going so far as to bring handcuffs and a knife to school, Waycross police said.One of the teacher's relatives said each child at Center Elementary School in Waycross had a job to do, including one assigned to wipe up the blood.The plot unraveled over the weekend when a student tipped off police, Local 6 reported.School officials said they never imagined that some of the 8- and 9-year-olds boys and girls at the school would think of bringing physical harm to a teacher, WJXT reported.Local6NewsWhat do they feed those kids in Georgia??Tags: kids, crime, murder, horror, Georgia, Lord Nazh, Verlin Martin

The month of October represents many things to many people. But to someone like myself, October can only mean two things: Playoff baseball and the living dead. That's right. And I am happy to pass along that a recent project has married exactly those two passions of mine in a book that explores unexplained hauntings on the grounds of Major League ballparks. Haunted Baseball: Ghosts, Curses, Legends, and Eerie Events is a book researched and written by Michael Bradley and Dan Gordon in which legends and ghost stories are brought out for all to examine and scrutinize. The tales were provided by several sources including stadium personnel, players and Ted Williams' cryogenically-frozen head. (okay, I might be making that last part up).Along the way, hundreds of MLB players (including Jim Thome, Derek Jeter, Jason Varitek, Alex Rodriguez, Omar Vizquel, Chipper Jones, Jay Gibbons, Mike Piazza, Michael Young, Derek Lee, Paul Konerko, David Wright and many others) share their perspectives a

Scholars beware: A wave of libel lawsuits threatens to stifle open and honest discussion of issues related to the financing of terrorism. Instead of competing on the battlefield of ideas, where facts speak louder than rhetoric, several individuals and organizations have sued scholars researching the financing of terrorist groups. I know firsthand. I was sued, stood my ground, defended my research, and won. To their immense credit, my campaign to defend my free speech and academic rigor enjoyed the...(read more)

On the South Island, a four-wheel-drive tour with Sam Neill (Sam's Off Road Tours, http://www.samsoffroadtours.com) across his sheep farm to see seals and penguins on the Otago Peninsula, jet-boating the Dart River and hiking to the base of the Franz Josef Glacier. On the North Island, cruising Coromandel Peninsula's curvy, mountainous roads in the rain, and driving to Paihia during a record rainfall that closed the main road and stranded us overnight with some really kind Kiwis.

A Chilling Account Of The Future? from Cities Transformed"Over the next 30 years, most of the growth in the world's population is expected to occur in the cities and towns of poor countries. Cities are now home to nearly half of the world's total population and over three-quarters of the population of high-income countries.By 2020 the developing world as a whole is likely to have become more urban than rural. The changes underway are not only a matter of percentages, but also of scale. At the beginning of the twentieth century, just 16 cities in the world - the vast majorities in advanced industrial economies - contained a million people or more. Today, almost 400 cities are of this size, and about three-quarter of them are found in low- and middle-income countries.In the near future, then it will no longer be possible to conceive of developing countries as being mainly rural. Both poverty and opportunity will take on an urban cast. This transformation will be a powerful force in sha

The part-time actress couldn't even be bothered to do up the buttons on her shirt - leaving her ample bosom on display.The dark glasses and water bottle firmly in her grasp is a clear indication the party-girl was feeling a little worse for wear after reports of a SEVEN day bender.Just weeks after leaving rehab, Lindsay has been living it up in some of America's top nightspots with pals including JUDE LAW and Jackass star STEVE-O.

If you've been reading The Daily Kimchi since our arrival in Korea, you'll recall that my first experience with ice noodles was only average at best. Anyways, we decided to try the ice noodles a second time--only this time it would be at the infamous 2900w restaurant "Happy time, Happy place".Let's start off with the tonkatsu...it's addicting and this is the third time I've had it:Now, let's give a warm welcome to our cold dish, ice noodles also known as Naengmyeon:Look closely, that is slushy bits of ice in the broth. This time around, I really liked the noodles! It was very refreshing on a hot day. The noodles were a bit chewy, but nonetheless they were still satisfying.I'd also like to introduce a special guest celebrity (former I might add) posting to this blog...here's his special message:"Yo VIP let's kick itIce ice baby (x2)All right stop collaborate and listenIce is back with my brand new inventionSomething grabs a hold of me tightlyFlow like a harpoon daily and nightl

An individual identifying himself as Tobias Petrus left a comment at this Blog in which he wrote:"Dear Mr. Melanson,The Jews, who both killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and have persecuted us, do not please God, and are enemies to all men; prohibiting us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they might be saved; to fill up their sin always: for the wrath of God has come upon them to the end."He then cited 1 Thess 2:14-16 and wrote, "So St. Paul says that the Jews are the enemy of all humanity."I think it's safe to assume that Mr. "Petrus" hasn't familiarized himself with Nostra Aetate of Vatican II, which said that: "...God holds the Jews most dear for the sake of their Fathers; he does not repent of the gifts he makes or of the calls he issues - such is the witness of the Apostle" (NA, No. 4 referring to the Apostle Paul in Romans 11:28-29).Nostra Aetate, No. 4 continues: "True, the Jewish authorities and those who followed thei lead pressed for the death of Christ (cf.
