Solar Thermal Energy Plant 2007-07-12 04:00:30 Solar energy comes in a couple of different forms. Most people are familiar with solar panels, they are becoming more and more commonplace on roofs of houses especially if you live in the South-West. Solar panels are based on the principles of photovoltaics where photons excite electrons in silicon crystals. However, there is another path to solar energy and that is through the solar thermal process.
Thermal
solar energy is the technologically unexciting way to capture the Sun’s energy with parabolic mirrors, placing a glass tube at the focal point of the light and running liquid through the pipes allowing it to heat up. The heat generated is used to make steam to spin a traditional turbine just like in a conventional coal-fired plant. So, it isn’t anything fancy or technologically advanced, but it works nonetheless. There is only one other such a power plant in existence to the author’s knowledge in the California desert, which was built in the seventies in a respon Read more:Solar

Jennifer Lopez TV Mini Series Premiere 2007-08-03 12:02:32
Jennifer Lopez
and husband Mark Anthony were prmoting her new several part miniseries titled “El Cantante.” It is about a young singer’s path to stardom and true love (hey, if Jennifer Lopez
is involved, you know that the story will go down that line). I haven’t seen it yet, but it will probably be filled with lots of great salsa music. Supposedly, it takes place in new york city, which is the birth place of salsa. J. Lo. is not starring in it per se (she and Mark Anthony served as producers), but she has small cameo rolls.
I am “whitie,” but developed a great deal of appreciation for the Latin culture, music and all. All things Latin started to become cool around the mid-nineties, if I recall correctly. I also remember that Jennifer Lopez played a huge part in it. I think the Latin community owes her a great deal of gratitude. It was great to see how all of the sudden pop music was colored with Latin beats and sounds, and it was better for it. Ac Read more:Premiere
Britney Spears’ Bodyguard Beats a Paparazzo 2007-08-03 06:42:53 Britney Spears
was staying at The Wynn Las Vegas Hotel And Casino on the Las Vegas strip, when two paparazzi got too nosy and pushy trying take pictures of the singer and her child. Britney got so mad that she yelled obscenities at the two guys with cameras and hurled the baby’s bottle at them.
Britney Spears
’ bodyguard, feeling that he should too take part in the action, jumped one of the paparazzi and neutralized him pro-wrestling style. Of course, the other one was busy snapping pictures in the meantime.
Hotel security arrived at the scene and managed to separate the people involved in the brawl, and took them into custody in separate locations. After they placed a non-emergency 311 call the the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police describing the situation. Britney Spears’ bodyguard was charged with misdemeanor assault.
The paparazzi will try to take this opportunity to sue Spears.

Paris Hilton Hunger Strike/Jack Osbourne Sex Scandal 2007-08-02 03:57:42 Paris Hilton
while still in prison was said to be on a hunger strike. Her weight got down to 100 lbs, and the medical staff out her on IV to preserve her health. As it turns out from a later report, it wasn’t a hunger strike in the traditional sense. Paris was simply afraid that some one might photograph her while sitting on the toilette. As silly as it may sound to stop eating for this reason, a person with her background can never be too careful. If the perpetrator were careful enough, his or her identity could very well stay a secret; and a picture of Paris Hilton
sitting on the john may be worth several tens of thousands of dollars.
While behind bars, according to her attorney, Paris Hilton passes her time reading fan mail.
Another shocker that Paris may have had sex with Jack Osbourne
(son of rocker Ozzy Osbourne) at one point. She was caught on camera joking with Jack Osbourne about sex while he acted as a special correspondent at a Simms computer game launch party. The r Read more:Paris

Carmen Electra Strips 2007-08-01 08:33:08 Carmen Electra
in this interview with Beth Ostrosky (model, TV personality) Howard Stern’s girlfriend shows a few sexy moves ladies could use to imress their man. Truth to be told, watching Carmen Electra
brushing her teeth could turn me on. She doesn’t need to work hard to induce that kind of a reaction in a man.
She also talks about the “beauty pill” MV (if i understood it correctly). Supposedly it not only helps one lose weight, but it also has supplements to help with hair growth and your nails. The natural extracts contained in this product are hoodia and green tea.
Carmen Electra also plugs her book titled “How To Be Sexy.” It contains tips for ladies to not only look sexy on the outside but feel sexy on the inside.
In the interview, she also talks about her break up with one time Red Hot Chili Peppers band member Dave Navarro. She plays it cool, say that they are still friends and they talk on the phone every day. I know that everybody&rsqu Read more:Carmen

“Perfect Stranger” Premiere 2007-08-11 11:52:13
Halle Berry and Bruce Willis are starring in the action thriller titled PerfectStranger
. I haven’t seen the movie yet, but it looks like it may be promising.
Halle Berry is almost 40 years old, but she is still smoking hot! I remember seeing her for the first time in a movie, I believe it was Beverly Hills Cop with Eddie Murphy or some other action movie. Unfortunately, her character comes to an early demise, but I took note of her immediately as the hottest black actress who has ever lived.
Obviously, Bruce Willis and Halle Berry are putting on show for the cameras as you can see in the TV program Extra’s red carpet report below, but you can’t help but wonder if two stars like these still get star-struck by each other. I mean Bruce Willis has been making movies since the late ‘80, and he is still very active and successful (even though he is not getting younger, he still comes across as a bonified action hero).

Denise Richards Biography 2007-08-11 06:44:12 Early life
Denise
Richards was born in Downers Grove, Illinois to Joni Richards (mother), a coffee shop owner, and Irv Richards (father), a telephone engineer. There is one other sibling, a sister and her name is Michelle. Richards graduated from El Camino High School in 1989, located in Oceanside, California. She was part of the cheerleader team.
Career
Before becoming an actress, Denise Richards
was a model. Richards spent the main part of the ’90s taking part in lower-budget films and TV shows like Saved by the Bell, television movies, and guest starring in episodes of some other shows. Denise’s first starring role in a major motion picture was Starship Troopers in ‘97, which was followed by a role in the somewhat successful cult movie Wild Things in ‘98. Richards next appeared as Dr. Christmas Jones in the James Bond film The World Is Not Enough (’99), which did well at the box office. In addition to her work in the movies, Richards has made regular Read more:Biography
Charlie Sheen Speaks Out 2007-08-10 06:45:31 Carlie Sheen and Denise Richards have been locked in a divorce battle for a while now. It has been ugly and often publicized in the supermarket tabloids. While it was usually wife Denise Richards who made her voice heard while Charlie
was boozing, womanizing and doing drugs (as a matter of fact, a friend of mine ended up doing lines of coke with Carlie Sheen in his limo one time totally by accident). Now he decided to go public and give an interview about some of the fine details of the divorce proceedings.
Charlie Sheen decided to speak out about three different things in the divorce deal that he wanted to be changed or amended. Firstly, he wanted an extra weekend a month to spend with his kids. It seemed like it was the least of the issues that needed to be addressed. The second matter it seems like is that Denise Richards wanted her own nanny to go over and assist with the girls when they were over at Charlie’s house. According to him, it has resulted in a situation where th
Andy Dick Squeezes Pamela Anderson’s Boobs 2007-08-09 16:35:17 Pamela Anderson
has always been famous for her breasts. So, when Comedy Central decided to “roast” her a while back, her boobs were often in the “spotlight.”
The Roast (official title: Comedy Central’s Roast of so-and-so) is an hour long show where they put a bunch of comedians on stage along with some of the friends of the person being roasted and rip he or she a “new one.” There was one of Dennis Leary and William Shatner as well. A couple of years ago, they decided to do one of the legendary Pamela Anderson.
There were a lot of great comedians invited to do their bit; the least of which was Andy Dick, and he always got picked on for being gay. Yes, the roasters are allowed to target each other, too. It’s great. When it was Andy Dick’s turn, he had some moderately funny jokes as well, but what took the the cake and essentially put him waaaay ahead of the pack that he ended up playing with Pamela Anderson’s boobs for minute Read more:Pamela
Rush Hour 3 Premiere 2007-08-09 15:18:02 Rush Hour 3 with Jackie Chan and funny man Chris Tucker is in movie theatres. As the name suggests, it is the third installment in the comedy/action series starring the two actors. The first one was great. The second one wasn’t nearly as good, but was still worth watching because of the martial art of Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker can be pretty funny too. My most favorite part of the movie, however, was the fight scene between Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon star Ziyi Zhang and Roselyn Sanchez (not sure if I’ve seen her in anything else). You gotta love a good cat fight. Not to mention that there is nothing hotter than a super hot chick who is perfectly capable of kicking your ass.
I am really interested to see how this turned out to be. Hopefully, the long wait since the last one (Rush Hour 2 was released in the early part of 2002) means that this latest sequel Rush Hour 3 is better written and tries to do more than just get by on the star power of the ever popular Jackie C Read more:Premiere

College Spring Break Girls 2007-08-14 15:41:19 College
spring break girls! My favorite kind. Spring
break is one of the greatest of American traditions. You are in college for four years spending your parents hard-earned money under the guise of earning a degree (you may even pick a major one of these years), and to take a break from all the partying in college you travel some place like Fort Lauderdale, Florida or Cancun, Mexico for a week and do some more partying. Nice!
The college spring break can have weird effect on guys, too, but I think it has the greatest transforming power over women. When a woman - who may otherwise be daddy’s good little girl - can turn into a stop-at-nothing boob-flashing party chick that’s what I call a party.
Somehow, going away to some far away place where only the friends you traveled with know who you are tends to have an effect on people. People pull all stops when it comes to doing what they otherwise couldn’t get away with, or are too embarrassed to be caught doing at home. The Read more:Break

Porsche 911 - Greatest Sports Cars 2007-08-14 08:07:42 The Porsche
911 was first introduced in 1964. It was designed by the same engineer as the Volkswagen Beetle: Ferdinand Porsche. He gave the Porsche 911 the same basic mechanical design: real-wheel drive with the engine in the rear. Up until the late 1990’s it was also air cooled. The engine was a six cylinder with an opposed layout, or boxer configuration which is still almost exclusive to the Porsche 911 with the exception of Subaru. The engine size has ranged from the initial 2.0 liter to 3.8 liters in production vehicles. Horsepower has ranged from the modest 130 to whopping 400+ in the 911 Turbo today.
The engine is placed over the rear axle for better weight distribution and to give the rear, driven wheels more traction. However, early Porsche 911’s still suffered from considerable over steer, a condition caused by having too much weight in the rear of the car. When going around the corner at high speeds, the car’s rear would try to “overtake” causing Read more:Greatest

Plug In Hybrid Electric Car - Chevy Volt 2007-08-13 05:34:11 The Chevy
Volt concept car, a plug in hybrid electric car, was unveiled in New York in 2007.
An electric car only uses batteries to get the vehicle from point A to point B. A purely electric car can be desirable because it has no emissions, and can be charged overnight when energy is cheaper making it a lot more affordable to operate than a conventional car. The downside is that currently electric cars have a rather limited range, which may be fine for your daily commute, but unsuitable for longer trips.
As you probably know, an electric hybrid vehicle is a car that has both a gasoline engine and an electric motor. The electric motor is there to assist the conventional combustion engine. When it comes to slowing down, the electric motor in the hybrid car is used to recapture some of the energy back into the battery. Hybrid
cars are great, because they can get 40+ miles per gallon in town(!) and if some one really knows how to drive one (yes, it takes a new set of skills to get the mo Read more:Electric
Brown Recluse Spider Bite Pictures And Info 2007-08-12 16:00:28 The brown recluse spider is a highly venomous spider. There have been cases where the victim of a brown recluse spider bite lost a limb due to the extensive tissue damage. This spider not as famous as the black widow, but in some ways it is more dangerous since there is not a special mark by which it can be easily identified. As a matter of fact it looks like an ordinary and harmless house spider. This is why it’s important that we learn as much as we can about what it looks like so we can identify it, and learn it’s favorite hiding places so we can take proper preventive measures.
As a general rule of thumb, they like dark places such as a shed, garage or attic but you can find them in a pile of firewood or debris and even in the bushes. If you left your shoes outside for some reason, make sure that shake it out really well to make sure that nothing found its way into it overnight. If you are going up into the attic, turn on the light thirty minutes in advance. That usual Read more:Brown

Milking a Spider 2007-08-12 15:07:50 How about milking a brown recluse spider? Sounds crazy doesn’t it? But some scientists think that there is a benefit to syphoning off the venom of brown recluse spider and studying it. If you have seen pictures of a person’s body where it got bitten by a brown recluse spider (watch a slide show of the progression of a persons hand effected by a brown recluse bite), you know that it is arguably the ugliest most repulsive and disturbing sight you will come across. As a matter of fact, the very flesh starts decomposing and oozing away to the point that a limb, for example, may have to be amputated to save the victim.
So, scientists are naturally interested in studying the venom of this highly dangerous spider and it’s relatives in hope of finding an antidote. They travel around the world gathering these creatures then they extract the venom and analyze it.
To get the venom out of the brown recluse spider, one needs to sedate it. They use carbon dioxide to this end. Th Read more:Spider
Getting Paid For Filling Out Paid Online Surveys 2007-08-18 08:06:01 Paid online surveys are questioners that an individual can fill out and get paid in return.
Getting paid for filling out surveys is nothing new. Before a company launches a new product or a service, it is common sense to test the waters first. Is the public as excited about what they have to offer as they are who thought of it, or will it be a bad investment? It is called market research.
Have you ever gone to the mall and got stopped by an individual who politely asked you to answer a few questions? Have you ever received something in return? If you have been around for a while, chances are that the answer is yes. This is just one example.
A few years ago I lived in the small town in the Mid-West. I managed to participate in a paid survey sponsored by IBM. They were about to launch a new product line of computers; and they wanted to find names for it that were the catchiest and would help move the most product. Over a period of a few weeks, I was to fill out four questioners - each Read more:Getting Paid
Britney And Madonna Kiss At The MTV Music Video Awards With Christina 2007-08-17 14:26:37
The year is 2003. Madonna
is promoting a new album, Britney
Spears is still the next Madonna at the top of her game and Christina
Aguilera is going through her “skanky ho” phase. They come up with the idea to do something truly shocking for the MTV Video Awards
.
They decide to do a version of Madonna’s “Like A Virgin”, which would morph into her new song Hollywood. First Britney comes out, veiled in a white wedding dress, singing “Like a virgin…”, down a flight of white stairs. You can tell that she is not lip syncing, because it’s not perfect, but some might be surprised to learn that she can really sing. That is until Christina Aguilera enters the same way. Christina also starts singing before flipping back her veil, but the crowd roars recognizing her voice right away. Even a few notes are enough to blow Britney right out of the water (it’s even worse with Madonna - in general and especially that night). The two women Read more:Music

Life is a mystery, everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
[Chorus:]
When you call my name it’s like a little prayer
I’m down on my knees, I wanna take you there
In the midnight hour I can feel your power
Just like a prayer you know I’ll take you there
I hear your voice, it’s like an angel sighing
I have no choice, I hear your voice
Feels like flying
I close my eyes, Oh God I think I’m falling
Out of the sky, I close my eyes
Heaven help me
[chorus]
Like a child you whisper softly to me
You’re in control just like a child
Now I’m dancing
It’s like a dream, no end and no beginning
You’re here with me, it’s like a dream
Let the choir sing
[chorus]
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there
Just like a muse to me, you are a mystery
Just like a dream, you are not what you seem
Just like a prayer, no choice Read more:Madonna
