Hm.. Time's Best Inventions of 2008

There are actually 50 in the list. I just saw this on Yahoo! Buzz. Click here for details.

Anyhoo. Here are the stuff listed by the author:

Save for its omission of the portable fusion generator I'm working on in my garage, Time magazine has done a bang-up job of rounding up the 50 best, most innovative, and most potentially life-changing inventions of the year.

41. The Peraves MonoTracer - Even if you don't ride a motorcycle, you've got to love the enclosed design of this two-seater-two-wheeler. Sadly, these designs never seem to come to the U.S.

33. Biomechanical Energy Harvester - Walking around wastes endless energy. Why not capture some of that power to charge gadgets while you're striding? When they build this technology into sneakers it's going to be huge.

24. Bionic Contacts - Bringing you your personal HUD, for real.

14. The Mobile, Dexterous, Social Robot - It's only a matter of time before they start replacing us bloggers.


13. The Memristor - A theoretical electronics component becomes a reality 37 years after it is hypothesized. Could change just about everything about computers over the next 5 to 10 years.

11. Green Crude - Gas from algae. Delicious, nutritious, car-fueling algae.

10. The World's Fastest Computer (Picture right) - Always fun to see these supercomputer cats one-up each other. The Roadrunner broke the petaflop barrier and is now installed at Los Alamos National Laboratory where it plays Tic-Tac-Toe against itself all day long.

5. The Large Hadron Collider - Even if it makes a black hole that destroys the earth, it'll be worth it because it's that cool.

2. The Tesla Roadster - A 125 mph electric car. Definitely want.

1. The Retail DNA Test (Picture right) - For $399 you can find out what your risks are for developing genetic-based diseases -- and how your hypothetical children might fare, as well. I'm deeply afraid of these tests because I'm already totally paranoid about my health as it is. I badly bruised my foot this week and a little web searching had me convinced it was a life-threatening brown recluse spider bit. Do I really need my genes telling me I have an 80 percent chance of Alzheimer's? Yikes. Still, very cool idea and finally affordable.


Cool huh? Algae gas for thesis, anyone? HAHAHAHAHA. Okay. I'm wasak. I'm kidding. XD

Why you should date a doctor.. XD


1. They have the tool - the stetoscope.

2. They can give you the gift of "missing them" because they are always at work.

3. They can give you a free medical consultation. That is everyone's favorite, right?

4. You save yourself from the embarrassment of going to a doctor with an infection.

5. They are smart, or at least dedicated! Entering and actually finishing medicine is no joke.

6. They know their anatomy well, especially the "know-what-works-and-where" part.

7. They are wild party people during weekends.

8. "Let's play doctor."

9. They are well trained to listen.

10. They know how you feel, or at least pretend to!

11. They always have a strange new story to tell.

12. They offer you a tissue if you feel like crying. It's a reflex action.

13. They can stay up all night if you want them to. They are used to on-calls.

14. They can guide you in the gym. That's one of the cases where anatomy comes into play.

15. Money! They work long hours for it. Although it also took them longs years to earn it.

16. Free medical samples.

17. They are unshockables!

18. They know what you want to hear and say it!

19. They always dress nicely! It is a dress code for them, you see.

20. They are trained in breaking bad news in the nicest way possible.

10 Things the Food Industry Doesn't Want You to Know

Click here for details. =P


1. Junk food makers spend billions advertising unhealthy foods to kids.

2. The studies that food producers support tend to minimize health concerns associated with their products.

3. Junk food makers donate large sums of money to professional nutrition associations.

4. More processing means more profits, but typically makes the food less healthy.

5. Less-processed foods are generally more satiating than their highly processed counterparts.

6. Many supposedly healthy replacement foods are hardly healthier than the foods they replace.

7. A health claim on the label doesn't necessarily make a food healthy.

8. Food industry pressure has made nutritional guidelines confusing.

9. The food industry funds front groups that fight antiobesity public health initiatives.

10. The food industry works aggressively to discredit its critics.


*Uhm.. It should be healthful food NOT healthy food. 0.o

This is the SHIIIIT: Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe

Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe

Who'd win in a fight, Batman or Sub-Zero? This perennial playground puzzler will be answered on November 10, when the worlds of Mortal Kombat and DC Comics are married in a video game. This isn't going to be one of those happy storybook weddings, though: as you'd expect from a Mortal Kombat-style fighter, lots and lots of domestic violence is in the cards. With the likes of Catwoman, Superman, The Flash and Wonder Woman taking on the Mortal Kombat cast, it's a hero's dream come true.

From: http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/seven-super-superhero-games/1255484


Oh my God. Oh my goat. Oh my goodness. What the fuck? What the hell!!! Waaaah!
THIS IS THE SHIT. RAAAWR! WTF. WTF. WTH! WAAAAH!!
Shit. Hyper. Ohmygut. I AM NOT OVERREACTING! BWAHAHAHA XD
Gone crazy. SHEEEEEEP!!

Kitana vs Storm? Hm. Sub-Zero vs Batman? Scorpion vs Spiderman? OHMYGOOOOOD!!!!!
*screams and runs around like hell* EEEEEEEEEEEEEP!! Fucken excited.

True Blood

I was searching for something to watch online or download. I saw this then it was also being compared to Twilight. Anyway, the series follows Sookie Stackhouse, a barmaid living in Louisiana who can read people's minds, and how her life is turned upside down when the Vampire Bill, walks into her place of employment two years after vampires 'came out of the coffin' on national television. (http://imdb.com) So. There. Who watches this? Maybe you can give me some feedback. XD

The Black Donnellys

Wala na ba talaga? Damn. :c

Saw something online. If enough people watch the series online, then the show will be back on tv.

Save The Black Donnellys!

http://www.nbc.com/The_Black_Donnellys/


Anyway. Tommy Donnelly = Jonathan Tucker = Edward from Veronika Decides to Die

Weird for me. He's the smart one in the tv series and now he'll act as Edward.

Normal Guy vs Edward Cullen

Written by a girl named Angela:

A NORMAL GUY VS. EDWARD CULLEN

A normal guy would say: “I love you Baby!”
Edward Cullen would say: “You are my life now.”

Normal Guy would say: “I think I am falling for you.”
Edward Cullen would say: “The Lion fell in Love with the Lamb”

Normal Guy would say: “You hair looks like a haystack; go brush it!”
Edward Cullen would say: “Your hair looks like a haystack... but I like it.”

A normal guy would pick a random song from a random artist and dedicate it to you.
Edward Cullen would sing you a song he wrote for you while playing the piano.

If you die, a normal guy would find another.
If you die, Edward Cullen would kill himself because life without you isn’t worth living.

(“Well, I wasn’t going to live without you..” He rolled his eyes as if that fact were childishly obvious. “..but I wasn’t sure how to do it. I knew Emmet and Jasper would never help so I was thinking maybe I would go to Italy and do something to provoke the Volturi.”)

As you leave the house, a normal guy would say: “Bye, see ya!”
As you leave the house Edward Cullen would say: “Come back to me, love.”

(He smiled my favorite smile. “Hurry back to me.”
“Always.”)


As you come back home, a normal guy would be watching TV and wouldn’t even notice.
As you come back home, Edward Cullen would be welcoming you by playing the piano with a song just for you.

(“I heard the music before I was out of the car. Edward hadn’t touched his piano since the night Alice left. Now, as I shut the door, I heard the song morph through a bridge and change into my lullaby. Edward was welcoming me home.’)

A normal guy would wait for you to make him breakfast.
Edward Cullen would make you breakfast everyday.

While you are both out for dinner, a normal guy wouldn’t keep his eyes off the sexy waitress.
Edward Cullen wouldn’t even notice the waitress was a female.

A normal guy, while driving, would keep one hand on the wheel and one hand on the radio.
Edward Cullen, while driving, would keep one hand on the wheel and the other attached to yours.

While far apart in different places, a normal guy would say: “I miss you.”
While far apart in different places, Edward Cullen would say: “It’s like you’ve taken half myself with you”

A normal guy wouldn’t care or notice if you had nightmares.
Edward Cullen would sing until your nightmares went away.

(“Do you want me to sing to you? I’ll sing all night if it will keep the bad dreams away.”)

A normal guy does it with everyone.
Edward Cullen only does it with one.

A normal guy buys you flowers and chocolates.
Edward Cullen buys you a car.

Thing is, Edward's fictional. Too bad? =P

New Moon (2010)

Wala lang. Read the title again. Haha.

Max Payne, Final Twilight Trailer, Grades, Midnight Sun

I checked out Youtube and found out that this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxjNDE2fMjI is the final trailer for Twilight which's posted one day ago.

MAX PAYNE naaaa! Max Payne! MAX PAYNE! *chants* Raawr! Max Payne! Haha!

Max Payne: There's an army of bodies under this river, people who ran out of time, out of friends. I could feel the dead down there, reaching up to welcome me as one of their own. It was an easy mistake to make.

Seriously. This is what happens when boredom gets in your head during sembreak. Plus the grades can now be viewed, the kiosks are now on and running. Phoebe told me that the line is long, as usual. I might go to school tomorrow morning to check. I burnt up all my patience for Monday. I don't want to wait. Even though the clearance/course card thing is new now. I just blah.

I want to drink and pass out. But I will watch Max Payne first.

Midnight Sun leakage got its pages jumbled up. I wonder if other readers noticed.
