Those who know me well know that I am quite disorganized, and that my short attention span impels me to relinquish incomplete projects I am embroiled in for new, fresh projects.When I was in college, while I did hold down a full time job, the expense of tuition forced me to search for money in odd places. So I surrendered my body to medical science, voluntarily allowing physicians to test new forms of medicine in my system. I got so lucky as to be chosen for a study of a new generic form of Adderall for side effects. Besides a little cotton mouth and an overall fuzzy euphoric sensation, I remember cruising through a nearly 500 page compilation of the works of the Apostolic Fathers (not an "easy" read) in about five hours, which led me to believe I may be slight ADD, and that Adderall is

A stunning and a breathtaking sunset. This is just one of the many gifts of Mother Earth to us. The colors of sunset are really amazing. Let us all be grateful and give Mother Earth the honor she deserves. Let us protect, conserve and restore the world we live in to continue seeing the wonders of nature we are enjoying.

Shahram Ahari, who spent two years selling Prozac and Zypraxa for Eli Lily, told a Senate Aging Committee that his job involved "rewarding physicians with gifts and attention for their allegiance to your product and company despite what may be ethically appropriate."   [ ... ]   It is the rare physician who refuses to meet with drug sales reps. In fact, as of April 2007, the percentage was just 7 percent of U.S. doctors.   [ ... ]So there is a very good chance that the doctor you see right now is being subjected to similar intense sales tactics like the ones Ahari describes. According to one study published in The New England Journal of Medicine: 94 percent of doctors have some type of relationship with the drug industry 80 percent of doctors commo

Great news, Mr. and Mrs. Tighty Pants: carrying five megapixels in your pocket is about to become a little less obvious. The latest member of LG’s storied Black Label line — other alumni being the Chocolate and the Shine — is starting to break cover, and for what the slider might lack in sheer visual distinction, it makes up in technical prowess. The as-yet-unnamed slider promises to be the thinnest 5 megapixel cameraphone in the world when it launches, featuring a reinforced glass touchscreen up front (just a little Glimmer-esque, if you ask us) and a shell constructed from carbon fiber. Other than that, LG’s being a little stingy with details at this point, saying that it’ll unveil the handset’s name later this month — hopefully along with pricing and a full spec sheet. Th

Thanks to a nifty and well versed press release, today we learn that this year's Comic Con (which will go down April 18th through the 20th) will get an additional injection of video game content with Gears of War 2 taking center stage.Scheduled to take the floor at this month's New York Comic Con, Epic's Michael Capps and GoW2 script writer Joshua Ortega will talk about Gears' origin, its success and give attendees a "glimpse into this year's upcoming Gears of War 2". Whether or not that means actual in-game GoW2 footage or just talking bits, we aren't sure. But our fingers are crossed in hopes that we get a GoW2 video tease come April 18th. We're sure Capps won't let us down.

So after a rather horrendous day yesterday spent huddled over my toilet or sleeping 14 hours, I awoke today feeling much refreshed albeit achy from all the bed rest. Rushed to get cleaned up and out of the house by 8 so I could fight the traffic and disgusting brown mist that happens on not quite rainy days here in Dallas. Ever so glad I washed my car by hand two weeks ago, it looks quite lovely and dirty again now.My regular doctor seems to have made it a point to be booked up in either city council meetings or with other patients for the next few months, so I had my eyes checked by his new protege.

With floor to ceiling water-white glass windows, exposed steel columns and accents of red and marigold, the building is a fitting home for a 21st-century media company.

I've written about Montréal-based band The Mission District back in 2006 (read here), and yesterday, I've received a message from the band that their new album, Youth Games, is about to be released in early 2008. Nice guys they are, they're also offering some tracks from the album as teasers.The new songs are immediately catchy and well-crafted, and if they're anything to go by, we might get a musical highlight early next year. I'll keep you updated on release dates and news, so you won't miss out on this!

Each year, people will have different ideas to provide the alternative ways of improving current home designs as shelled out from the various imaginations created by students and artists depending on their ideal home. Most of the advanced means of appraising home designs do not come from research but rather from how future architects and interior decorators view homes as years pass. True, these are the same people who bank on the latest trends and designs we see today. However, these are just foundations and some points for consideration. Improving on what they see is a never-ending process, providing enhancements as they want which in turn become the apple to the eye of many. Many people who have the luxury of putting up their own homes are after new ideas and home innovations. While they can rely on the web and magazines on the latest, don’t be surprised if they add something to the mix. That is just how home decorating and visualization is made today.

It’s rumored that the extra video in the secret ending of Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix is a trailer of the next Kingdom Hearts game, Birth By Sleep for the PSP. This rumor actually has some strong backing based on the various details revealed at the Tokyo Game Show. Plot Synopsis quoted from Wikipedia: Birth by Sleep focuses on the story of Keyblade masters before Sora from the original Kingdom Hearts game and is a prequel, taking place ten years before the original Kingdom Hearts. Nomura has stated that though there are three scenarios, there is not one singularly important scenario or character, but that the main theme is Ven’s identity. It is also believed to be connected to the unlockable trailers at the end of Kingdom Hearts II and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix. The story revolves around three Keyblade apprentices in search of a missing Keyblade master, Master Xehanort, and his apprentice. Their disappearance foreshadows a great disaster. The game will take place entirel

I left work kind of early -- for me at least -- today. Technically, our work day lasts from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm. In all honesty, I can't remember when I've ever gotten in at 9:00 or left at 5:30 -- I'm more of a 9:30 to 6:30 kind of girl. But I've been staying a little later than that pretty much all month -- for example, last night, I left at around 8:10, since I got home at 8:30.Granted, some of it is that I've been really busy, but a large part of it is that, after my time at the anonymous law firm, I feel guilty leaving the office while it's still light outside. I know I shouldn't -- after all, I get more accomplished in a short day at my current job than I ever did in 8 billable hours. Today, though, was painful. It all started with an office meeting -- a very long meeting, that, while productive, presented the opportunity for the bosses to discuss their preferred procedures for getting work done, and for various co-workers to complain about the implementation of thos

I was looking for some pictures of Nurin Jazlin, the 8 year old girl who went missing a month ago and whom was finally found dead and stuffed into a gym bag, and I remembered about Nuri helicopter crash not too long ago. There were no pictures of the corpse published on any local newspaper nor shown on TV. So I searched for it around the Internet. And these are what I found; It was sad. At the same time, I do not dare to look at the pictures for too long. Probably I may not dare to look at my own post here. But it’s life, and when there’s life, there’s also death. This was reality, an instance of life which had been taken over by death. Our deaths, only God knows how would it be. But when the time comes, we’ve got to face it. Dare, or not.

Life invariably draws its meaning from a higher existence. Let us try to understand this: A tree grows out from a single seed, though it has many leaves. A seed, in itself has no meaning unless it sprouts into a sapling; a sapling has no meaning in itself until it grows into a tree; a [...]

Spent the last couple of hours scouring youtube.com for clips of Anderson since I'm absolutely clueless on how he plays, what his strengths and weaknesses are and frankly, I've come away none too impressed (will elaborate further later). Nani, on the other hand, is a known entity, and I've spent the last year convincing myself that he's the right guy on the left side for us (what a mouthful). It's going to take time to convince myself that Anderson is worth his weight in gold.Anyway, I think this video's one of the best on youtube.com. It comprises of combined clips of both Anderson and Nani, and more importantly, it has the least crappy music. The rest all had some very angry hip-hop music. The downside is that it's too bloody long at almost 10 minutes, and the Nani portions only start around the 7th minute. Too bad I don't have the know-how to make my own crappy clips to post on youtube.com.Anyway, enjoy this rather long montage.Now that you've seen the video, here's what I

Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner, Vice President Bob Lutz and Fritz Henderson, standing respectively, the pic was captioned "production clay model".

So, here it is, the first glimpse of final Potter. Harry Potter and the deathly hallows - the cover for this book was showed today and the Guardian tells us about it:The children's cover for Bloomsbury in Britain is by Jason Cockroft, who illustrated the previous two books, and features Harry, Ron and Hermione leaping out of a circle of gold, surrounded by treasure. Harry himself looks almost unrecognisably grown-up - although the trademark specs remain - and all the intrepid cloak-clad trio look shocked and have cuts and bruises on their arms. The inside front cover features a stag, while the inside back cover has an illustration of a snake inside a silver orb. The adult edition cover pictures a locket, believed to belong to Slytherin. And yes, the speculations are growing. What will happen? My oldest son has reserved one, so we will get it the very first day. But: how shall we do with that? Who will read it and who will keep the secret until everyone in the family has read it? A

Me on the tidal reaches of the Ribble, not the section in contention, but just a nice picture to illustrate the post.As I promised yesterday, here is the response we received from the Water Bailiff, who's son would have been in the Eskimo Topolino Duo with me, after we had to call the Ribble trip off.

The two lads tried to avoid me by passing under the far arch but the tail kayak missed and ended up wedged sideways on the concrete pillar. In struggling to free himself he turned
