Sexting

2009-12-16T00:20:00.000-08:00

What is sexting?

Sexting is, as Wikipedia puts it, a "portmanteau of sex and texting." Or if you like, it is the act of sending sexually explicit messages or photos electronically mainly from one cellphone to another.
The Pew Research Centre carried out a study in September involving 800 teens.

It found that 30% of 17-year-olds who have phones have received sexting photos or messages. Eight per cent say they sent "sexting" images.

There have been multiple other studies in various countries and all of them report that at least 20% of teens have sent inapropriate photos via their cellphones. The numbers are usually higher for the next age group up, 18-25.

This is a felony but who is really going to put 20% of americas youth behind bars? So sexting will continue.

Tiger Woods Scandal

2009-12-07T12:31:00.000-08:00

The scandal with Tiger Woods continues

There are now nine alleged mistresses of golf star, Tiger Woods and nobody knows how many more will come out and tell their secrets this week!

Im not sure when Tiger Woodss car crashed turned into everyone finding out about his various mistresses. I have not heard of a sex scandal this big in a long time.

According to many sources, there are now 9 woman who have claimed to have had an affair with the married Tiger Woods who also has two young children. This, for sure makes me think differently about the golf super start now.

Tiger Woods Scandal Update

Things now seem to be getting worse for golfer Tiger Woods. First of all, he had a car crash outside his house, next he has numerous women claiming to have had affairs with him (nine to be exact so far) and now Tiger’s wife Elin Nordegren has reportedly moved out of their mansion.

suntimes.com reports that, Tiger’s wife Elin Nordegren, moved out of the couple’s home in Florida recently and is now said to be living with friends nearby. Tiger, the golf superstar is hoping that the move isn’t permanent.

At the same time, Tiger Woods’ best friend Bryon Bell and his fiancée say they still want him as best man at their wedding next weekend. A cheater sounds like a bad omen as a best man t but it’s been said that Tiger is hesitant, as he doesn’t want their big day ruined by his media attention.

Singer Rapper Lil Wayne Murdered

2009-12-06T17:12:00.000-08:00

What happened to rap star lil Wayne?

Just a week after the Katt Williams rumor that the comedian died in a plane crash, here is another news I picked up from my friends and its even more bizarre. According to talk on the street, hip hop super star Lil Wayne was Shot Dead during the weekend.

This cannot get more insane.

So much so that lot of internet rumor mills are saying on the web that rapper Lil Wayne was shot dead in a gang feud and that he was left on the streets to rot.

Who could be behind such rumors? Is somebody in the rival music faction deliberately trying to damage the reputation of these stars or is it some buzz creating tactic on the part of campaign publicists.

Did you get this news of Lil Wayne Shot Dead? Tell us about where you heard it and who sent you the message.

Macy s Thanksgiving Day Parade 2009

2009-11-23T12:43:00.000-08:00

Every year at this time I look forward to the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Its an annual parade presented by Macy's. The three-hour event is held in New York City starting at 9:00 a.m. EST on Thanksgiving Day.

In addition to the well-known balloons and floats, the parade also features live music and other performances. Btoh ollege and high school marching bands from across the country, such as James Madison University's Marching Royal Dukes, participate in the parade, and the television broadcasts feature performances by famous singers as well as bands. The Radio City Rockettes are a classic performance too.
Pickerington High School Central leading the parade in 2001. Macy's Parade: The PHS Marching Tiger Band from Ohio, has marched in the parade four times, and was selected to lead the parade in 2001

On the NBC telecast from in front of the flagship Macy's store on Broadway and 34th Sreet, the marching bands perform live music but most of the other live acts use pre-recorded music with the performers lip-syncing their singing. This is why I love the Macys Thanksgiving day parade

New Moon Movie Reviews

2009-11-20T12:14:00.000-08:00

New Moon Movie Review Consensus from Rotten Tomatoes and various other sources about the New Moon Twilight movie:

The Twilight Saga's second installment may satisfy hardcore fans of the series, but outsiders are likely to be turned off by its slow pace, relentlessly downcast tone, and excessive length.

There are people here who won't "get it" when it comes to the Twilight - New Moon movie. And that's fine. They don't connect with the stories, and this clearly isn't for them. But the movie looks tremendous, the dialogue works, there are numerous well placed jokes, the acting is on point. The fact that certain folks won't be moved is irrelevant as this isn't the way they relate, and they're too far past that moment of having your heart shattered into a thousand pieces. In a way you've got to envy them, as they've already taken the Death Cab for Cutie song to heart. For me? The film worked surprisingly well, and I'm interested to see the direction they'll take with Eclipse. So long as there are people there will be love stories, I hope they all feel as lush and lively as this one.

The plot of the movie New Moon involves a love triangle between Jacob (Taylor Lautner), Bella (Kristen Stewart), and Edward (Robert Pattinson). The setting is again Forks, WA. The supernatural takes center stage with werewolves and vampires battling it out for Bella supremacy. So then, Bella Swan and the gang are back, only this time they've clearly been given solid direction and are up to the task. They're asked to carry a ton of emotional weight, and they generally come through. Little moments about this film stand out, and the interaction between Bella and Edward in the New Moon movie feels a little more subtle, a little more nuanced. There's a moment early on where Bella reacts to something Edward doesn't say, a huge improvement from the monster telegraphs of the first film. The obsessive and seemingly limitless first love of your teenage years feels very well thought out, even if it's with a vampire, even if you happen to run with a few werewolves.

Thanks for reading my reviews about the Twilight - New Moon vampire movie.

Steven Tyler Leaving Aerosmith

2009-11-10T16:43:00.000-08:00

After 40 years, Steven Tyler has quit the rock and roll band Aerosmith by walking out on the “Crazy” rockers following a performance in Abu Dhabi last month, if band guitarist Joe Perry is to be believed.

The report comes just months after the singer spoke out publicly to dismiss reports the rock band was on the verge of splitting. In August, Tyler broke his shoulder after falling off stage while performing in South Dakota, and the group was forced to scrap the remainder of its summer tour.

Fedor vs Rogers Fight Video

2009-11-07T21:55:00.000-08:00

Previously undefeated martial arts fighter (mma) Brett Rogers gave the Russian legend his toughest fight in recent years at Strikeforce/M-1 Global "Fedor vs. Rogers,"

The first attacks included a looping right and left from Emelianenko and a sneaky left from the burly Minnesotan that snuck under the Russian's right arm, produced a surprising result: a cut on the bridge of the seemingly impervious Russian's nose.

Fedor Emelianenko struck and grabbed Rogers for the first of a few key clinches, then tossed the 265-pound fighter to the canvas as if he were 50 pounds lighter. Rogers wisely rushed to his feet before Emelianenko could snag an appendage and atack.

Rogers was hardly ready to quit the fight, though. Pushing Emelianenko to the fence, he stalled the former Pride champion, as blood trickled down his face.

A shooting at the Ft. Hood Army base in Texas this afternoon has left at least 12 people dead and 31 wounded. The Army said that one shooter was killed and two others apprehended, and ABC News identified one of the shooters as Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan.

Army deputy chief of staff Gen. Peter W. Chiarelli has been at the head of the efforts to reduce the number of Army suicides, which hit a three-decade-high in 2008. [Update 5:01pm: A previous version of this post stated that Gen. Chiarelli was headed to Ft. Hood today, the Army tells us he is not.]

News organizations are updating as quickly as they can about the tragedy, but Twitter users are also expressing their concern and speculations on the social network, using the hashtags “#fthood” and “#forthood.” Topping the trending topics, which show the most popular topics at any given time, are “Fort Hood” “Texas” and “Major Malik Nadal.”

Yankees World Series Tickets 2009

2009-10-21T09:53:00.000-07:00

Yankees World Series tickets used to be printed almost every year. But soon, Yankees World Series Tickets Go on Sale Early World Series baseball tickets may be available for the first time in six years. In anticipation, some Yankees World Series tickets are already ready to be sold. This morning, fans tried to buy Yankees World Series tickets from the Yankees official baseball website, but it was an uphill battle. Only a few Yankees World Series tickets were made available, and only a few die-hard fans could get them online.

According to the New York Daily News, many fans thought Yankees World Series tickets would be available at the Yankees Stadium ticket office, but found to their disgust that they weren't. Early tickets were only available at the Yankees' website, and they were gone in about seven minutes.

Future Yankees World Series tickets will be made available soon, at the rate the ALCS is going. But when and if the pennant is clinched, the demand for tickets will likely be too high for many New York fans to get them in time. Fans can only purchase two tickets per game, and may have to spend even more money than usual to get into Yankees Stadium.

NFL Power Rankings Week 7

2009-10-20T09:58:00.000-07:00

After a very exciting week 6 of the NFL season the power rankings came out today. Several groups and websites have their own power rankings but I agree with the fox power rankings this week even though they have impressed me the least up until this point. A few surprises of this week included the Tennessee Titans losing to the New England Patriots 59-0 in a truly embarrassing loss. The Washington Redskins lost to the previously win-less Kansas City Chiefs. And on Monday night football the Denver Broncos has an impressive win over the San Diego Chargers in San Diego to get to 6-0. It is not surprising that the New Orleans Saints come out on top as the number one ranked NFL team this week, with a seemingly effortless win at home against the New York football Giants. The other undefeated football teams are directly behind them followed successively by teams with more losses.

Nasa Moon Bombing

2009-10-08T15:56:00.000-07:00

NASA is launching a dramatic mission to bomb the moon.

The LCROSS (Lunar CRater Observing and Sensing Satellite) mission will send a missile traveling at twice the speed of a bullet to blast a hole in the lunar surface near the moon's South pole.

Scientists expect the impact of the Centaur rocket to be powerful enough to eject a huge plume of debris from the moon. The moon dust should even be large enough to be seen from earth through telescopes 10-to-12 inches and larger, says NASA.

So what's our beef with the moon?

Do Black People Get Sunburnt

2009-09-25T17:57:00.000-07:00

The popular question online today is whether or not black people can get sunburnt. Its a good question but it seems like they could feel the pain and get burnt from the sun but probably not as easy as people with lighter skin because anyone with dark skin is evolved to live in hotter environments. So thats my best guess!
