dell.iCious
in the wake of the respective Dell and Apple recalls of their laptop batteries, let us recap the spectacular events that prompted such.
as covered by endgadget and kcci.
of course, there will still be some stupid people who would do this.
so, word of advice, don't get into a fight with your gadgets, and don't leave your laptops plugged too long unsupervised (especially if its a Dell).

Transformers roll call
the list of Transformer characters that will appear in the movie is revealed today. i'm surprised to see a very short list. i don't even recognize some of the Decepticons. where are the familiar ones like Soundwave, Shockwave, and Thundercracker?
Autobots Decepticons Optimus Prime Megatron Bumblebee Starscream Jazz Brawl Ratchet Bonecrusher Ironhide Skorpinok Frenzy Blackout Barricade
bushy!
got this from a colleague. try it!
search engines usually look for keywords within a website, and the more keywords, the higher probability of the hit. meta-tags, which the owner or writer of the website can set in the headers, to be able to get picked up immediately by search engines, can also be crucial in this regard (especially vendor sites).
so what does the above tell us - there are too many instances of the word in the site, or the website authors purposely, made sure, that such a keyword would have a high relevancy rate for search engines?
of course, if you switch the same search to Images mode, you-know-who's pic is also gonna appear (just not the White House site).

FROM CNN:
NEW YORK (AP) -- With a city-issued broom in his hand, Boy George started his court-ordered community service early Monday, sweeping leaves and trash off the sidewalks of New York.
It took less than an hour for the former Culture Club frontman to get into a spat with the media.
"You think you're better than me?" he yelled. "Go home. Let me do my community service." ... (continue to CNN)

More things to do in Utrecht
I dont know what the band's called. The jazz trumpeteer added another level of sophistication to the reggae-infused rap. The music was still from the streets, but a rather more upscale street. Those guys rocked. After they finished their set, I went home.
Only to find out a couple of hours later that this happened. I didnt mind the sirens at first. I thought the police were just out to arrest a few drunks.

Joe movie? oh thats right, it'll be shot down by critics who hate American jingoism, just like i mentioned about a potential Captain America movie. but Willis could do a great Duke ... (and of course, people should die in the film, not like the kiddie cartoon version). paging Michael Bay, Michael Bay, call on line 1 ...
