It is true what everyone is saying. The iPod 4th gen is an iPhone 4 without the calling capabilities. That is true, with a couple of exceptions..
1. It CAN call, but only with wi-fi
2. It is so. Much. Thinner.
3. It is so. Much. Lighter.
Yeah, it looks different, blah blah blah. I get it.
Basically, it's an AMAZING device; it's an iPhone, but better on the outside, worse on the inside. Click here for the iPhone 4 review, cause once you read it, you know weather you want the iPod touch 4th gen or not.

Oh and this is Kazu talking but one more thing to add. The camera is not as good and the ipod touch does not have the same IPS technology meaning the angle in which you can view the screen with the same colors are smaller than the iPhone. So while on the iPhone people can watch a movie with you even from the side, on the ipod touch it is hard to see the screen. Ok so that is that and I'll catch you guys later.

STARCRAFT 2
Hey guys looks like I'll be doing another blog in the game section. I really don't have much to talk about other than the fact that patch 1.1 is coming for Starcraft. Link is here. If you guys are too lazy to read the whole thing, basically, zealots, warp gates (to warp), reapers, bunkers take longer to build, and siege tanks and battlecruisers are now a bit weaker. Also, the ram move for the Ultralisk (attack for building) is being removed because it is the same as the normal attack anyways! SO that is that and I'll see you guys next time!

Kent's Stuff
One of the games that caught everybody's attention at the E3 expo this year was, Portal 2. The sequel to the masterpiece created by Valve, Portal. The new game will feature a co-op mode where you'll be able to complete challenges presented to you by GlaDOS with a friend. And yes, GlaDOS does return. Just as creepy as before, if not more so.
For those of you who have been waiting for the iPhone 4 to be released in Taiwan, rejoice! It's only a week from now when the iPhone 4 will be released in Taiwan, and I know I'm getting one.
A Yahoo researcher broke the record for number of digits of Pi found. Nicholas Sze was able to find up to the two-quadrillionth digit. Congrats Nick!
First bio-fuel cell has been created! So basically what they do is stick a little thingy in your arm or somewhere, (it may not be your arm) and generate power/electricity from YOU. You're not going to be charging your cell phone with this power seeing that it produces a whopping 2 microwatts in a couple of hours. (I was being sarcastic in case you didn't notice). If anything this technology will be useful in medical fields. It would be possible to power a pacemaker with a bio fuel cell. This means that once the pace maker is in, you'll never need to take it out again! (Let's hope you won't need one in the first place.)
HOLY CRAP SO COOL. Brother has developed a projector called AirScouter that project's onto your eye biscuit (mmm, tasty). Basically, it projects fast moving light directly onto your eye, and makes it look like there is a transparent 16 inch display about 3 feet in front of you, that of course, only you can see. This is the stuff of movies. So very very cool. They will be having a live demonstration in a little while in Japan. So wish I could get my hands on one of these.
I think that's it for me for today.
Thanks for reading.

I'm Back Y'all
Wassup world? I'm back but this time I'm here for the gaming section. Halo: Reach is finally out! With a Metacritic score of 92, it definitely surpasses Halo 3 and lives up to it's name.
"The only thing missing from this impressive entry is a number "4" in the title, because for all intents and purposes, Reach feels like the next big thing in the Halo franchise." - GamePro
"Suffice it to say that while it's not a perfect game, it's definitely the best Halo game yet and a fittingly epic goodbye to fans from Bungie, the developer that helped to launch a million Xboxes. " - GameSpy
It is sad to say that this is the last game in the Halo series (from Bungie), but I can see 2-3 years from now kids still playing this epic game.
One last note, this game does come in a Legendary Edition:
There is also a custom painted Xbox Slim and wireless controllers (2) with a standard retail version of Halo Reach: Click here because for some reason can't upload another pic.
Ok see you guys next time (which is hopefully soon)

Mods
Hellooo again, my avid video gamers!
What's good?
SO, modding.
Modding servers in Call of Duty: MW2 makes the game so much better. Yes, I mod, and I've got to say I've made SO many people happy because I mod. A lot of people put down modding games, and I really don't see why! Some people even go as far as calling it hacking. It is NOT hacking! It's just doing stuff that the developers couldn't think of. I know that there is a rule saying that modding isn't allowed, but hey; rules are meant to be broken, eh? And for you guys who don't like modding, don't play it; just quit!
Modding can be a lot of things; it can be mods where the enemies are zombies and you're trying not to get eaten, etc. Overall, it is VERY fun.
If we get up to 500 views per day, we'll start doing Apple give a ways, such as iPods, apple TV's, etc. If we get MORE than that, we might start giving away bigger things, like computers and stuff.
Thanks!
Peach out,

Kazu's post..-.-"
Because that fat-ass won't post, I will.
I'm kidding about the fat-ass part :P
Well.. not really
ANYWAYS
African Americans have an official language now! It's called Ebonics. What is the difference compared to english? Well; instead of saying My, you say Mah. Instead of saying School, you say Scoo'. You get it? It's an actual language. An Official language. How much more racist can you get, America? I mean WTF?? They're still speaking english! So just because they say "'Sup dawg, you coo'?" instead of "Hey. Are you good?", you give them a language?? That's just not right. At all. You just don't do that!
However, I DO find it interesting how you can take a language, mess with it and make it a brand NEW language. I should do that too! Here.
I am a igpay.
Naww, that didn't work.
Uhhh...
IJustinIsAwesome AmJustinIsAwesome AJustinIsAwesome PigJustinIsAwesome
THERE YOU GO!
A language we will all learn to love.. I'll call it... JIA! :D
Anyways,
If we get 1000 views a day, we'll start doing give-a-ways regularly (twice a month), we'll be giving away the iPod touch, iPhone 4 [You pay for the contract, we buy the phone], iPod nano, iWatch, etc. If we get MORE than 1000, we'll start giving away BIG stuff like iPads, video cards, etc. Tell people about our blog!
Merci

The best game evar?
There are zombies.
There are cars.
This is blood.
There. Are. Strippers.
These, my women readers, are all the thing a guy looks for in a game. Cars aren't a MUST.. but strippers are. I'm just sayin'.
So Activision is releasing a new game called Blood Drive on November exclusively for the XBOX 360 and the PS3. Rana, you're out of luck, but I'm sure you can watch Kazu enjoy the game ;)
What's so cool about this, is normal race battles are 1 V 1, right? This is 1 V 1 V 1. The three are Car VS Car VS Zombie Strippers. Ok, well they aren't ALL zombie strippers, but hey; we look for the few.. dancers that made it this far. I can't really say much else about this game, 'cause this is all I know about this game right now, but trust me; I am going to get it. I am in love with EVERYthing on the list above. Rana, be prepared to watch Kazu spend his time looking at the TV instead of you, and the same goes with Jessica. Except Kent wont actually be playing the game.. He'll just be sitting behind Kazu drooling. And I'll be sitting behind him drooling. And Jak...Well you get the point :D
The game is going to be 49.99, which is less than most games, and that is more of a reason why you should get the game!
I sound bland in this post, I know; I'm sleepy.

iPhone 4 review
The big question is "Should I get it or not? Should I upgrade from my 3GS?"
The big answer, is no. Don't upgrade from your 3GS. I mean, If you already have a 3GS you're good to go; that phone is amazing and not THAT much different from the iPhone 4. The only things I noticed that were different is
1. The retina display. Beautiful. Sexy. We could look at girls all day through it. Or Kazu, if you're Rana. I'm not saying anything.. I'm just saying.
2. The design on the outside. That is cool.. but it isn't as noticeable as the weather change outside in New York.
3. The camera on the front. It comes in handy a LOT.
And finally
4. The responsiveness is almost on par with the iPad
Those three are the main differences that are OBVIOUS. But some people want better insides (thats what she said), hey? Thats fine. Kinda like me with computers. Anyways, the inside of the apple iPhone 4 has a powerful processor that you won't need to use unless you play games on the iPhone. The battery life is... not so great. I can leave my iPad open ALL NIGHT listening to music, with the screen actually on, and only lose 2%, while when I do the same thing to my iPhone 4, it loses 6%. I'm not to happy with the battery life, since apple promised that it was going to be better. Oh, another thing; the camera on the back is AMAZING! I was blown away of the shot I took of myself. Part of the reason being that I'm so sexy.. so handsome.. so awesome.... but the other part of the reason is because the camera is just an amazing camera.
SO...
Pros:
1. Retina Display.
2. Front Facing Camera
3. The Camera on the Back
4. Responsiveness
5. Powerful Insides
Cons:
1. Battery Life
2. Reception -.-
3. Uh...
4. Hmmm...
5. -.-
6. OH!
7. Nevermind.
As you can see, there are 5 Pro's and 7 Cons. YOU decide.
When we reach 1000 readers per day, we'll start doing give-a-ways! We'll give away iPods, Apple TV's, and if we get MORE than that, we'll give out stuff like iPads! Please tell people about the blog. Thanks!

CALL OF DUTY IS A LIE. ITZ A LYE!!!
I don't know why I started the post like that. I just don't. Was it because I was bored? Because I was... uh.. bored? I.. uh... I like juice.
Now Call of Duty modders have just heard the news of their life. CoD: Black Ops is now coming out with a new game mode that is a DIRECT rip off from Modern Warfare 2's gun mod. Basically, what happens is you start out with a knife, then when you kill two people you get the USP pistol. After another two kills, your pistol upgrades, and so on. Cool, hey?
I've got to go write my essays for school now, so sorry about the short post. If we get up to a thousand readers, we will start having apple give-a-ways! A.K.A iPod Shuffle, iPod touch, etc. So tell your friends about this site! Thanks!

Kent's Tech Stuff
Hey guys,
I realize me and Kazu haven't posted for a while, so we apologize, but we are still students after all and we don't have all the time in the world. Basically, we've been busy. Like the teachers said. This around when the amount of work starts to kick in. So too all you other freshies, good luck! :P
Tech news... tech news...
Well, the new iPod nano is out. And from what I can see, it's another cool, innovative apple product. it's small, slim, and has a butt load of memory for something so small. Except I don't like it. A touch screen on something that small? The last iPod nano was good. It had the video camera and a nice screen. It still felt relatively like an iPod. But this new thing... I don't know... It feels like the iPod nano has kinda lost it's way. The last iPod nano was already something that I wouldn't buy. Even though it had the video camera it was too light for me. I liked the old ones that had a bit of substance. Something to hold in your hands. The screen was too glossy too. Sorry. I'm complaining about the old nano. I should be complaining about the new one. Well for one thing, you can't watch videos anymore. AND IT'S JUST SO SMALL. BLEAH. The iPhone 4 on the other hand which I've had a chance to try, is VERY good. It's nothing but improvements. The 'Retina Display' is truly all that is claims to be. Absolutely B-E-A-UTIFUL! And it is very fast. It has the new Apple A4 processor. The camera has also been improved to 5 megapixels. The new look is stunning as well. Truly a wonderful piece of engineering.
{When we get to 1000 readers, we'll start doing give-a-ways! That means the iPod Shuffle, Nano, Touch, etc. When we get more readers, we'll even start giving away big stuff like iPas and Video cards (for you gamers out there ;)). Tell people about our blog!} - Justin
Gotta get to my homework.

Good morning, Call of Duty fans!
I am going to type todays post in two versions; the optimistic version and the pessimistic version. Lets do this.
SO, that is the optimistic version. Here is the pessimistic version.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 was a horrible game, and will stay the worst game in the history of bad games. And now, Treyarch is releasing a new Call of Duty game on November 9th. I mean COME ON! WHO will BUY that piece of crap?? I know I won't..-.- Anyways, on PC there will be dedicated servers. You know what? I don't care. MW2 servers are fun. I don't need dedicated servers. All those idiots who WANT dedicated servers are.. well.... idiots. No offence. Ok and see, here is why I already hate the game. There is a damn crossbow. THAT just ruins the whole game already. Yes, ok Gears of War had a cross bow, but the difference is, Gears of War is PWN. Unlike that retarded ass game, Call of Duty...
Apparently, this game takes place between 1960 and 2010. That's retarded. Just plain stupid. Not the 1960 part; no. The 2010 part. Can you imagine fighting a war in Taipei 101? Drop a goddamn bomb and the building falls apart, and boom; you win. It's that easy. Also, there is suppose to be more stealth in Black Ops than any other CoD games. Seriously? In Modern Warfare 2, you can run up behind a whole team WITHOUT the sound of footsteps, and knife everyone and get away with it. Do you really need more stealth? I'm not going to buy it. I hate it. Shut up. I don't care. My head exploded. D:
In other news, I will be starting up an Apple Center, and there I will review apple products, tell you about new apple products, cool apple apps, etc. Tell people about our blog!

Kinect
XBOX 360's Kinect is going to be released VERY soon! Very soon as in a month.. but.. uh... SHUTUP
For those of you who don't know about Kinect, it is basically a camera that connects to your XBOX 360, and it tracks your every move. Kind of like a pervert. Or Pedo Bear. But this is different; this camera sends your image to the console, and the console understands that information and passes instructions to the TV, which uhm.. Sorry, I lost myself there.
Let me put it in simpler terms.
It is a new way of gaming.. without the controller. If there is a ball coming at you, swipe at it and the ball will bounce back and hopefully hit a person *ahem*kazu*ahem*.. if there is a tiger in front of you, pet it! If you see people dancing.. dance with them! And I don't mean "A. A. B. X. Y. YYA. A. X. UP. DOWN.
Nope.
I mean DANCE. Move your legs up! Kick your arms out! *EDIT*<--(That was an unintentional mistake.. that shows how tired I am :P)*EDIT* Shake your body! That's right; DANCE! All you gamers out there; imagine playing a FPS with this. Wanna knife someone in CoD? You get the point, eh? There are currently 8 games that will be coming out with Kinect, and there will be a LOT more after that, I'm sure.
Anyways, my head has fallen into the keyboard twice because of the jetlag, so I'll cut off here.
I'm just going to finish by saying I WILL test out Kinect the day it comes out, and immediately post on this blog weather you should get it or not; yes, that is a review.
Thanks for reading, and tell people about this blog!

Video Game News
Video Game News
Today, my topic is going to be
WTF is up with hacks?
I mean seriously. Without hacks, I can get anywhere around 8-10 nukes a day in MW2, while playing only 5 hours a day. With hacks (yes, I've tried this a long time ago), I can get a nuke every game. Literally. I got 15 nukes in an hour. I found out that hacking makes the game so damn boring! Because the minuet you see someone, bang; they're dead. Even though you had no idea that the guy was there. It's like someone else playing; not you. Basically you're watching another player play! I have got to admit... before I got the hack to test out, I thought "Oh damn, I cant' WAIT!!". Afterwards, my thoughts were "ehh... I'd rather read". It ruined the game for me. Afterwards, I couldn't start playing MW2 again until now. And also, hacks piss EVERYBODY off. Including me. So tell me, people.. WTF is up with hacks?
Today, my topic is going to be

Retard much?
In Hickory, North Carolina cops were able to solve in record time the mystery of the two cash registers taken from the Captain's Galley restaurant. When they were looking around, they discovered a long trail of white registry tape. They followed it for about 50 yards to an apartment, where they found the thief trying to pry the registers open.
What I wanna know is, when he went into the room and turned around to close the door, how did he NOT see the tape that was on the floor leading all the way back to the restaurant. He probably thought that by the time he got back the police would already be there and so tried to get it open and run away before the police got there. Well, that obviously failed. With a ph. PHAILED.
OK so what do you guys think about this? Where would you go if you had 2 stolen cash registers? Your house? Your friend's house? The sewers? Tell me in the comments! Oh and one thing if you want awesomeness click here:AWESOMENESS :)
New York is video gaming dog facing pretzels and handstand. lolwut?
Hey guys!
I have just arrived in NY, and I don't know weather to be happy or sad.
I'm happy because
1. Kent finally posted (ass hole -.-)
3. My computer in NY is PWN :D
8. My internet in NY is PWN :D
1000. I just got off the plane. Thank god.
I'm SAD because
1. My friends are back in Taiwan D:
5. MOSQUITOES! ARGHHH
249201. My big dogs had to be left in Taiwan D:
SO
anyways..
This shall be the start of the video gaming section!
Microsoft has teamed up with COD (Call of Duty), so that everything Call of Duty (map packs, etc.) will go to the XBOX 360 one entire month before going to the PS3 and PC. Now that may piss off some PS3 and PC players, but that being said, XBOX 360 is SO MUCH BETTER!
Just kidding
Personally, I do like the XBOX 360 better, but hey; that's just my opinion.
In other news, Call of Duty: Black Ops will allow gamers to play COD:BO's multiplayer on September the first, so all you lovers of COD out there, stay tuned!
That's all for today, 'cause I literally just got off a plane and I'm kinda tired..
Good night all, and tell people about our blog! Thanks!

Kent's Tech Stuff
Hy guys! Sorry again for the one day delay. Really my bad. But I had a date. I'm sure you guys understand right? :D
EmotionML... how would you like your computer to cheer you up when you're feeling down, calm you down when you are feeling pissed off, or provide you with porn when you are feeling a little horny. It just warms the cockles of my heart knowing that my computer will all ways know when I'm in the mood. Always there to provide for me (sorry if that joke was inappropriate ladies). I'm kidding. BUT! The World Wide Web Consortium has developed EML. Kinda like HTML. Hyper Text Markup Language. That's the standard language for developing websites today. EML stands for Emotion Markup Language. This may sound a little far fetched for what a heartless calculating machine can do, but WWWC really does intend to make computers be able to respond to your emotions. This means that your computer could pick up your emotions when you are video chatting with someone and make your avatar smile or look angry depending on whatever your emotion is. This also means that the difficulty for video games is going to be adaptive. The difficulty will adjust depending on how you react. I don't really know when we can expect this technology in our computers, but I can tell you that it probably won't be within the next five years.
Next...
Just something I want to pitch to you guys here. You know how our cell phones and smart phones mostly use the 3G network? Well, apparently there's a 3.5G network in use... I didn't even know that? Did you guys know that?
Moving on...
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I think this is the worst piece of tech news yet. AMD killed... killed... the ATI BRAND!!!! NOOOOO.
(Image courtesy of engadget.com) So for all of you ATI lovers out there lets have a moment of silence. Now all their products will be called... AMD RADEON. And thats just not the same.
I'll leave it at that today folks. I'm going to be crying myself to sleep tonight.

Embarrasing Moments
The title says it all.
For example:
Me: Good night dad, love!
Me: Good night Terra, love!
Me: Good night Devin, love! CRAP!
For those of you who don't know, Devin is my sisters boyfriend.
Yes.
Very embarrasing.

This Week's Topic: Stupid Criminals
So for today I would like to talk about Adam Juarez Ramirez. He thought he could become a cop without taking the test. He thought he had it all figured out. Well, he was arrested in Grapevine, Texas after pulling over a driver on the road on his pickup truck with flashing lights and even a fake police ID, which he had made by blacking out a restaurant gift card and etching in the word POLICE in it. It would have been great except for the fact that he kept the restaurant's logo, a jalapeño pepper surrounded by the words "Chipotle Mexican Grill". So I want to ask you guys, if you could be a cop for a day, what would you do? Tell me in the comments below, and make sure you tell everyone about our blog!
Video gaming section/BEACHHHH
Hey guys!
Not many people seem to be reading our blog, so I'm going to start up a video gaming section. It goes for everything gaming; weather it be XBOX, PS3, PC, Wii.. eBox? I guess so. Anyways...
I went to the beach today with the big dogs, my sister and Devin (my sisters boyfriend). It was one wild ride. In the car, I had to keeo the big dogs from drooling all over my sister, or else she would cut my head off with a piece of paper. I was very curious about how she would do that, so I tried letting the dogs drool on her once. Alas, I am holding my head with my left hand and typing with my right.
Just kidding.
I didn't actually let them drool on my sister. So we got to the beach, and it was a freaking BEAUTIFUL day; absolutely gorgeous. First thing Brownie does is poop right in the middle of the parking lot. Smack in the middle. Then I found out that I forgot to bring the leashes, so I chased Brownie and Ge the whole way to the beach. The beach itself was pretty nice, though. As I said, it was a beautiful day. After about an hour of throwing a stick for the dogs, I decided to jump in the water myself and body board, since the waves were ginormous. Three seconds later, it rained like hell. Of course, I got out of the water then. 5 minutes later, the rain stopped. THEN, I looked at my shirt and found out it grew 3 times bigger because of how powerful the waves were. -.-"
Does that whole paragraph sound horrible? Well I've got to admit, I had an amazing time. The dogs loved the water, I loved the dogs, the dogs loved the stick, and the stick didn't quite like the dogs mouth. Sadly, I didn't take photos this time, but I'm going again tomorrow, and... no I'm not bringing im my camera. I want to jump in the water and not worry about the camera.
Anyways, my hands are getting tired as I'm typing on my iPad, so imma go to bed now. Good night, and tell people about my blog please!
Peace

Quick FYI
Hey guys!
That person who has the Japanese name is Kent; I don't know why he chose such a... uh... cool*ahem* name, but whatever. Just an FYI

Kent's Tech Stuff
Sorry about the delay from the last post. So here's what's going on.
The Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen filed a lawsuit against Apple, Yahoo, Google, Facebook, AOL, eBay, Netflix, Office Depot, OfficeMax, and Staples! Allen is also the founder of a company called Interval, and he says that all these major search engines and e-commerce companies are infringing upon fundamental web technologies developed by Interval in the 90's. The curious thing is that Microsoft wasn't included in the lawsuit. After all they do provide the search technology for Yahoo (which WAS on the list). Allen also refused to comment on if licensing issues had been discussed with the above companies prior to filing the lawsuit.
These are the specific patents cited in the lawsuit:
In the mean time, one of NASA's spacecrafts has spotted a multi-planet solar system. They named the system Kepler-9 after the Kepler spacecraft that found it. Little fact; the Kepler spacecraft is armed with a 95 megapixel camera. 95! Reportedly there are two Saturn-class planets and one planet around the size of Earth in the Kepler 9 system. They were able to detect the planets by measuring the dimming of starlight as planets passed in front of their sun. Within the next couple of years we should be able to say whether planets like our Earth are common or rare. As of now, there scientists have found around 300,000 systems capable of having planets like our solar system. Get ready for the aliens people!
Now for some gaming news. Lenovo, yes, LENOVO has announced their own game console. Apparently it will be a competitor for Microsoft's Kinect. Levovo's new console is called eBox. Yes, a very uncreative ripoff, I know. It will launch in China by the end of the year. Lets see if Lenovo can actually make a console to match Microsoft's Xbox and much anticipated Kinect.
Thanks for reading! I will be posting again shortly.

Stinkiest subway rider.. EVAR
I took the subway to my house today, and let me tell you; it STUNK. Not the subway itself; that smelled pretty nice.. it was the people inside it. So there I was, standing in a fully packed subway car, and the guy in front of me puts his hands up to hold the hand-holds up top. At that point, I was probably thinking about my dogs or something; I'm not sure. But then suddenly, my mind went from thinking-of-random-things mode to OMG-DON'T-BARF.-YOU-CAN-DO-IT.-I-BELIEVE-IN-YOU mode. The guy stunk like HELL! Did he NOT shower for a week or something? I doubt that cockroaches would even touch him! He smelled like a mixture of Blue Cheese, Stinky ToFu and dead Kazu. Don't ask me how I know that o.o
I couldn't stand it; I really couldn't. I got off next stop, waited for a couple of min. and took the next subway car.

Photoshoot
Yesterday was unbelievable. Literally. My sisters friend came over, and became my sisters model. That isn't the cool part, though.. After she got into costume, my sister poured flour and water (bread materials, not.... Flower) over her friend. I have NEVER seen anyone look so much like a ghost just by using two materials!

WhoTube?
Hey guys!
I got back from school (well.. hanging out with friends at school) today, and I just sat around being bored. But then I remembered a magical thing called Youtube. Youtube has kept ME busy for the past few hours, and let me tell you; it is entertaining. No, it's better than entertaining; it's life saving. Why is it life saving? 'Cause without it, I'd probably be dying of boredom right now. Not just me, nope; millions of other Youtube users. Also it is a fantastic way to earn money! Did you know that if you are a Youtube partner (ShaneDawnson, RayWilliamJohnson, sXePhil, etc.), then you can earn so much money that you could buy a MacBook Pro in one month? That's a lot of money for just posting videos! So, tell me who YOUR favorite Youtubers are in the comment section below.
PS: Sorry for the short post; so tired today :P

Payback
Alright guys so I guess I'm not done with Justin yet. Since he did steal my job for a day, I'm going to do the same for him. So today we took yearbook photos and a class photo (whole grade) and it was pretty fun...I guess. It was funny because if one guy wanted to call someone else that was on the other side of the row he would tell the guy next to him to pass a message down the row until it got to the person. Also, if one person lost their balanced everyone is right next to each other so it;s kinda like dominoes and everyone "falls down" (from Justin's post about the earthquake :D). Yeah so that's that and I'll see you guys tomorrow!
Why do dogs lay on their backs?
Now THAT'S a question that has been bothering me for a bit over a year. I always thought that it was because they wanted to cool their belly off... I was so, so, wrong.
I did a little research today, and found out that if a dog is lying on his or her back, it could mean three things. First, it means that he or she is accepting you as his or her master. No WONDER my dogs always lie on their backs..
It could also mean that they are completely relaxed, and it just feels... good. It's the same feeling that us humans have on the beach, when we're just lying down under the sun, listening to the waves, letting the wind blow over our bodies... Damn.. Who wants to go to the beach tomorrow?
After hearing all that, you're probably thinking "so if a dog lies on his back, it is most definitely a good thing, right? Am I right, Mr. Officer?". You wish. You're never right.
I'm kidding :D
Anyways, if a dog lies on his back with his paws covering his chest, then it means "don't touch me, don't pet me, don't do anything to me". You know, now that I think about it, that might be the reason my dogs hate me!
No, actually they don't, but they do sometimes ignore me.

I died with my hair red and didn't get saved...(take that Justin)
Ok, I'm not sure why Justin took my role of giving interesting news to you guys, but I guess since it's about dogs I'll let it go this time...
Anyway, In recent news (although not really interesting), Tiger Woods and his wife, after 6 years of marriage have finally divorced. This is of course because of the fact that he had affairs with lots of other women. But what do you guys think. Was he set up or did he really have affairs? If he had, do you think he deserved losing his wife, fans, and some of his major sponsors like AT & T and Gatorade? Leave your comments in the comment section below!

I dyed a dog blue while saving a dog.
Yes, I lied. I didn't dye a dog blue, nor did I save a dog. I did, however, dye my hair, and that is why my post is late. I'm sorry. I'm SORRY!
So I went out with my sister today to go skate boarding, when suddenly she said "Dude. We are dying your hair. Now". I was dying for air con (See what I did there?:D), so I said sure. We went into the hair saloon and my sister sat me down.. I expected they would start cutting/dying my hair immediately, right? Wrong. I sat in that chair for over an hour waiting for them to decide. Finally, the hour is over; I hear the worse news EVAR. I have to sit in that chair for 3 more hours while thy do my hair. -.-
There is a highlight of this all, though. First, part of my hair is BLUE! :D Second, they washed my hair there. Like, thrice. And it felt nice. Christ. "I dyed my hair blue, and my house is full of poo. Fine the second part is false, but the first part is true."
And that is why my post is late. Anyways, I'm posting today about a dog who saved another dogs life; I know it isn't new, but I find it SO amazing. A dog (I'll call him Apple) was hit on the highway by a car. Of course, the car can't do anything about it, 'cause it's driving on the highway, so the car keeps on moving. Apple is injured, but not exactly dead. Suddenly, out of nowhere, dog two (who I shall call... Microsoft) risks his/her life, runs into the high way, wraps his/her two front legs around Apple and drags Apple to safety! Microsoft actually risked his LIFE to save Apple. If you'd like to see the video, here is the link. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5OEKA47xFI ).
See you guys tomorrow, and thank's for staying online, Ronana!

Kent's Tech stuff
Intel microprocessor technology emerging!
Intel has created a research prototype of the worlds first silicon-based optical data connection with integrated lasers. This new link, can move up to 50 gigabits per second. This is about as much data contained in an entire HD movie. With this new technology, information within computers and other electronic devices will be transferred using lasers rather than a physical link. "The kind of change this speed increase could cause could exceed our collective imaginations. It effectively could make the location of most everything in the technology space irrelevant,"said Rob Enderle, principal with the Enderle Group. "It suggests a future," explained Enderle, "where we could have live streamed HD images from around the world. It suggests affordable HD telepresence where talking to someone thousands of miles away is no harder than looking through a window. You could have the best doctor, even if that doctor is on a different continent," Enderle mused.This could be our low cost answer to the future of computing technology!
Cheers!

You could have the best doctor, even if that doctor is on a different continent," Enderle mused.This could be our low cost answer to the future of computing technology!
Cheers!

Is the end near?
So there have been lots...and I mean LOTS of rumors about the end of the world but is it real? Well so far everyone has been BSing it, so if you are one of those people, listen up. Apparently Stephen Hawking also thinks that if we don't find another planet to evacuate to...we are soooooo screwed. The end might be another planet colliding, it could be nuclear war, or the sun could envelope us whole. So what do you think about this. Did Stephen Hawking change your mind? Tell me in the comments!

The Beach
So I’m heading off to the beach with my four headed.. uh... four legged friends now.. I can’t wait! The dogs will probably scratch me to pieces in the water, but hey, they’re having fun, eh? -.-
I guess I’ll tell you about my dogs before I leave. I have four dogs at home; two goldies, a toy poodle, and a dachshund. The dachshund is 3/4 the length of my arm, but his legs are smaller than my pointer finger. I think it’s hilarious because whenever he tries to jump on my bed, he has to bend down and try to propel himself up far enough. Then when his front two feet reaches the bed, he has to drag his whole body up. I love that little thing<3
Then there is my toy poodle. He is the furriest creature ever. Seriously.. his hair makes him look 3 times bigger! I know this because I once had to get his hair cut off, because it was all tangled up. In the 2 weeks it took for him to grow his hair back, he looked like the skimpiest little guy in the world. He is VERY cute, though.
Finally, my two big dogs. One of them, Ge (pronounced Guh), I big, strong, and scared as hell. One time I took both the big dogs walking, and they saw a horse (I have no clue why there was a horse on a trail). Brownie, my other goldie who I’ll get to later, stood his ground. Ge, on the other hand, ran faster then I’ve ever seen him run, and he crashed into the wall to the side. Ouch. Aside from this, Ge is a very beautiful dog. His fur is brownish gold, and he is cuddly as a.. nevermind. When he’s bored, he likes to run into me and full force (literally), and use his body to smash into my legs. Then, he’ll rub his body against my legs, and lie down next to me. One moment, I’m screaming in agony, and the next moment I’m petting Ge.
Brownie is the ONLY girl dog in the house. Yes, her name is Brownie, but her fur isn’t browner than Ge’s. We got brownie first, so.. yeah.. Anyhow, Brownie is not afraid of much. She is stubborn though. If she doesn’t want to do something.. she just won’t! For example, if I need the dogs out of the house for a bit, Ge will go right out, and even wag his tail; Brownie on the other hand would have to be dragged/carried up the stairs. Literally. She’ll have all four paws on the ground, all her weight at her butt, and she will try to keep her head low. She’s smart; I’ve got to admit it.
EDIT: I just got back from the beach. FUN! I’ll post pictures soon.

Hello World!
Hey everyone! This is Justin, and here is my new blog. I’m going to be talking about everything that pisses me off, makes me happy, and whatever that’s in my mind!
And we all fall down...
Not really.
Well, maybe some, caused by the earthquake that Taiwan had last night. To tell you the truth, I was in my bed and I felt my bedsheets moving. Immediately, I looked down and I was about to yell at Bam Bam (my Dachshund) for clawing on the bedsheets and disturbing me, when I realized that he wasn’t there. Oh, I also realized that my TV was shaking. At that moment, I was thinking that there was either an earthquake, or there was a super fat guy walking outside my door. I wasn’t awake at ALL, so I presumed the latter. It turns out, though, it was a 5.0 magnitude earthquake.
My friend Kent wanted me to post this message.
“Yeah, who felt that? Because I know I didn’t. I sleep like a log. I won’t notice anything. Seriously, you could probably shave my head without me noticing. Did anyone feel it? Or was Justin the only one?”
Evidently, I'm NOT the only one. My friend told me that she also felt it while she was in bed, but was "too sleepy to get up and hide under the desk". I agree with her logic. I would rather die asleep than die under a desk.
