My shower curtain is equipped with a force field.
I realize that's not an especially sane-sounding thing to say. Reading that, you might expect me to be the sort of person who checks the 'matrix' for deja vu glitches, or asks people to 'use the Force', or writes Trekkie fanfic in his spare time. In fact, I do none of these things.

Have you ever experienced uncomfortable shower curtain sequence that bother you almost all the time while you where having a nice shower? I had a one which is a nightmare!One fine day while I was having shower, an unexpected lady visitor of mine came in to the toilet for the water closet right in front of my shower curtain. I was in a total shocked when I knew what was happening. Suddenly the curtain blow in and stick right to my whole body, showing every part of me to the outer side!

Despite the seemingly good news that the U.S. has avoided a technical recession, there's actually a bit more to it than that. From a story by BusinessWeek's Peter Coy:...the cut in the federal funds rate they announced on Apr. 30—a quarter-point, to 2%— probably won't be enough. Senior U.S. economist Paul Ashworth of London-based Capital Economics predicts the Fed will be forced to cut the funds rate to 1% by summer's end. The U.S. economy remains in dire need of aid, and the financial system, while no longer in flames as it seemed to be a couple months ago, is still smoldering. At the same time, inflation, aside from food and energy, is more a theoretical threat than a real one. Core prices rose just 2% from the first quarter of 2007 through the first quarter of 2008, going by the Fe
Well friends, How are you?. I am fine and I just hope that everybody are fine. I am going to blog about something which is related to the ShowerBow. It was very interesting to read this article and to say the least I was just fascinated by it. This is a post concerned about the shower bow and is developed by Patrick Reymond. He invented in one day while standing in the shower. Instead of putting up with clingy curtains one can start the day off with more space. Another interesting news is that Patrick was recently elected to the Board of the United Inventors association, where he serves to support inventors.I have never experienced the dreaded shower curtain effect but I got idea about it as my friends told me about it.

Today, thanks to the internet, there are so many places that young people can get information on possible careers. And this is a very good thing, because most high schools do not prepare their students for life in the real world. Yes, there’s a lot of emphasis in high school on passing AP exams and doing well on the SATs, as well as doing well on federal standardized tests. Yet where is the exposure to possible career paths needed in order for young people to fully consider their options? In 1970 in the world of MRS. LIEUTENANT: A SHARON GOLD NOVEL, the U.S. Army for most young men meant fighting in Vietnam, a country halfway around the globe. Some young men enlisted and some young men went R.O.T.C. (Reserve Officers Training Corps) and many, many young men were drafted. Ye

LG's 5.1 megapixel OZ: a Casio W53CA hides behind the curtainWell lookie here, LG just announced a followup to its LH2300 Touch Web phone. This one's for the twisty-fold clamshell fans -- a design which makes it look positively Japanese superphone-like. In fact, we're pretty sure it's just the Casio W53CA with LG branding and new Hello UI for Korean consumption. Interesting given that Korea certainly isn't lacking in mega-spec'd phones. Anyway, given the Exilim underpinnings it's no surprise to find a 5.1 megapixel CMOS sensor, 28-mm lens, color correction, 9-point auto focus, and built-in anti-shake technology bunged into the backside. The LCD measures 2.8-inches (down from the LH2300's 3-inch LCD) yet still manages the same 800 x 480 pixel resolution for DMB television and landscape or p

This little bookcase belonged to my mother-in-law. It belonged to her parents and probably dates from around 1912. It is pretty typically Edwardian. Oh the chap in the picture is the original owner. I am tired of trying to find a photo to paint from on the week-day evenings so I am going to try to do more of these "found" still-lifes. The light isn't great, but yet another challenge that is probably character building or something.
Just a few weeks ago the national media descended on Memphis to market what was the highest ranked regular season basketball game of the year. The media machine was in full force, and Tennessee and Memphis did not disappoint. If only for one night Tennessee (of all places in these United States) was the center of the basketball universe. Now one question remains. What were the members of the NCAA selection committee watching when all this was going on?

If this concept could actually be made to work, it would be pretty smart, don't you think? The less holes drilled in the bathroom walls, the better, we say. We don't really understand how the pipe is supposed to support the wet shower curtain, though, but we trust they'll work that out in time. From Matteo Thun & Partners.
Occasionally as I am making my rounds through the blogosphere, I run across someone referring to me in excessively laudatory terms, e.g. "the mighty Diesel" or "Mr. Diesel President-CEO-Founder-King of Humor-Blogs."

He showed him several patterns, but Santa seemed to be having a hard time choosing. Finally, he selects a lovely pink floral print. The salesman asked what size curtains he needed. Sardarji replies, "Fifteen inches." "Fifteen inches?" asked the salesman. "That sounds very small, what room are they for?" Sardarji tells him that they aren't for a room, they are for his computer monitor. The surprised salesman replies, "But, sir, computers do not have curtains!" Sardarji says, "Hellllooooooooo........I've got Windows!"
I've flown on a lot of planes. I mean a lot. Not only passenger planes, but almost 300 rides in various cargo planes and puddle-jumpers with an aim not to get the free peanuts, but instead to jump out … and skydive.
When I've traveled on planes in the more conventional sense though, I've always been resigned to the dreaded Economy Class. The Barn. You know … how the low-lives of the world travel. The cramped seats with mediocre arm rests where inevitably a screaming baby is strategically placed near you, and maybe two if it's an especially long flight.

New winds of change are blowing across Europe. Starting December 21, the passport free Schengen Zone will be expanded to include nine more countries - eight of them former Iron Curtain members. Fewer land and sea travel border checks will be required for these countries. Not only that, but by March the expansion is expected to include airports in 24 European nations.
The Schengen Zone was born out of the 1985 agreement in a Luxembourg village (from which it takes its name) between Germany, France, the Netherlands, Belgium, and Luxembourg. Since then it has expanded to include 30 European members, including all EU member states and three non EU members. This recent expansion is the largest and includes Malta and eight Eastern European states.
For now, all the excitement is centered on the fact that daily life will become easier for residents rather than any dramatic changes in economic status for the newly inducted countries. In towns like Valga-Valka on the Estonian Latvian borde
