STEPHENIE MEYER

STEPHENIE MEYER

Stephenie Meyer graduated from Brigham Young University with a bachelor's degree in English. She lives with her husband and three young sons in Phoenix, Arizona. After the publication of her first novel, Twilight, booksellers chose Stephenie Meyer as one of the "most promising new authors of 2005" (Publishers Weekly).

Praise for Twilight:

• A New York Times Editor's Choice
• A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year
• An Amazon "Best Book of the Decade...So Far"
• A Teen People "Hot List" pick
• An American Library Association "Top Ten Best Book for Young Adults" and "Top Ten Books for Reluctant Readers"
• Has been translated into 20 languages

"Propelled by suspense and romance in equal parts [this story] will keep readers madly flipping the pages of Meyer's tantalizing debut."
— Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"The novel's danger-factor skyrockets as the excitement of secret love and hushed affection morphs into a terrifying race to stay alive. Realistic, subtle, succinct, and easy to follow, Twilight will have readers dying to sink their teeth into it."
— School Library Journal (starred review).

GOOGLE CHROME

This browser is totally sweet...
Words can't explain... I'm using the chrome for like 5 hours now... And I'm happy.. haha.. It has the widest browser evah... hehe...

But of course Google Chrome is still on BETA version...
So stop whining if there's a bug.. report it to google immediately..

Features:

V8 Javascript Virtual Machine - built from scratch in Denmark, and open-sourced as well so other browsers could use it. this would be vital for the web browser developers because it will speed up javascript's execution time, as many of the web application today uses javascript extensively and of course AJAX.

Seperation of processes - this is what i also lala-love. chrome seperated the browser and the tab processes, with this feature whenever a tab crashes the browser and the other tabs won't be affected, all you have to do is close that tab and your done.
Process manager - what a neat feature, you can see what tabs/sites are consuming so much memory and whenever you feel your getting laggy just close some tabs and you'll free some memory. it also tracks your plugins memory consumption.

Omnitabs - the tabs are placed above the address bar, not like the traditional tabs seen on other browsers. you can detach your tab from the main window and you could also combine them.(just like opera) this output was achieved because of the seperation of the browser and the tab processes. It doesn't have a web search box instead the address bar suggest web searches, top pages, website you've visited and sites that are popular.

Speed dial - similar to opera, you will see your most visited webpages as 9 screenshot thumbnails. At the right side, you will also see your searches and your recently bookmarked pages, and your closed tabs.

Incognito mode - this features will let you browse sites without having to worry about history. The comic said it is good "to keep a surprise gift a secret", i'm thinking of something much better. lol..

Web apps for your desktop - yes you could save web apps for your desktop e.g. save google calendar.

malware and phishing sites - we know google crawls the web and they keep a list of harmful sites. Users often tell google what sites are malicious and that where this feature come in, before you enter a malicious site chrome will alert you. Google also promises that whatever runs in a tab is sandboxed so that it won’t affect your machine and can be safely closed.

You can also resize the textarea (where you type in you comments in friendster, your blogspot posts, etc.) churva just like safari.. hehe..

The status bar is minimized and it just appear whenever you clicked something or reload the page. that's why it's maluwag..

The browser has an address bar with auto-completion features.
Called ’omnibox’, Google says it offers search suggestions, top pages you’ve visited, pages you didn’t visit but which are popular and more. (just like firefox)

And the good thing about it? IT'S AN OPEN SOURCE PROJECT.
hehe..

Try google chrome now... to see it's edge from other browsers...

DOWNLOAD GOOGLE CHROME HERE.

MY BED IS A HOTSPOT...!

Yes my bed is a HOTSPOT...

Friday, two weeks ago... I brought home my office laptop…
While I was charging the laptop a popup balloon popped.. Aba’y hotspot pala dito...
At first it won’t connect… the other wireless network that my radar smells has password so I can’t connect either. I was pissed because my “not so” smart bro broadband connection can only be used by one pc… baduy!!!... hehehe…. I need a router or switch pa… I have no budget for that eh… haha…
Bulok kasi pc ko sa bahay.. hehe…

So eun… I was looking for another spot in the room so I can connect to the internet comfortable (I prefer sitting and laying may back)… hehe… but dang! I can’t connect... the only spot..? On my bed... hehe…

But of course I make sure I’m safe…
I don’t enter my username and password basta basta… When I’m connected to a safe network… I chose to remember the user names and passwords so when I’m connected to unsecured network… I can’t be hacked… I mean you know key loggers, sniffers and blah blah whatever… I just type in the first letter of my username then a drop down selection will appear… then I’ll choose my username... then my password will automatically appear… plus I also use an add-on that encrypts whatever I type on any of my browsers… nice right..?

But right now… I can’t bring home my office laptop anymore because our boss doesn’t want to because I’m just an O.J.T and we never know what might happen while I’m traveling home. Dabah…
In short it’s not that safe… :D

Mind you, mabilis siya… Prang sa office lng ang bilis ng wifi sa bed ko…. Haha…
But of course, low lang ung signal kasi malayo ako… kaya napuputol siya paminsan minsan..
Hmmm…

I’m too lazy to share stuff this few weeks… hehe…
Hmmm…. So I think that’s all for now… :D

chyeah...

BEER BELOW ZERO

I always wanted my beer to be super cold. I mean who wouldn't like it to be serve chilled?? Right?! Your dry throat feels the bite of that almost frozen beer. Refreshing!!! aaaahh...

I'm not actually a beer person but I like beer din naman.. hehe.. :P I can only drink up to 6 bottle of beer and that's it.. haha.. drunken stupor na ako after.. hehe..

The perfect beer has arrived!



I discovered a revolutionary technology that enhances the crispness of your beer’s taste through a frosting process that heightens your drinking pleasure. I'm talking about no other than BEER BELOW ZERO my friends. Imagine your beer bottle is wrapped with frost. Don't you just love that taste.. owyeah..

Drinking beer will never be the same again!
It is kept at its most desirable temperature – ice cold but not frozen.
Now isn’t beer best at this state? The technology has been made perfect through extensive research and development with refrigeration engineers and chemists.
Using a scientific approach, they’ve perfected the recipe of your “perfect beer”, cold but still liquid and easy to drink.
Consistency is the defining characteristic of this process.

Initially BEER BELOW ZERO is available in Grilla Makati and Libis, Barrakz, Quattro, Mugen, Padi’s Point MOA, Padi’s Point Remedios, Phi Bar, Coco Manggas and Ascend.

The very conservative target is to make the product available in 100 outlets nationwide before October. Provincial operations in Ilocos, Baguio, Pampanga, Bicol, Boracay, Palawan, Cebu are already being set-up.

So watch out!
They'll come crashing through your favorite bars soon.

So what are you waiting for guys. Get your beer BELOW ZERO DEGREES...!
Next time you drink beer, make sure to make it a pleasurable experience - demand that it be served below zero! :)

THE JOKER AND THE BATMAN SURFING!

Do you SURF?!

Batman and Joker does..


The classic episode where Batman surfs in contest against the Joker.
(Read more...)!

WHO IS THE BEST JOKER?

The Joker is a fictional character, a comic book supervillain in the DC Comics universe. He is widely considered to be Batman’s archenemy. Created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, with contributions by artist Jerry Robinson, the Joker first appeared in Batman #1 (Spring 1940).

The Joker is a master criminal with a clown-like appearance, including bleached white skin, red lips, and green hair. Initially portrayed as a violent sociopath who murders people for his own amusement, the Joker, later in the 1940s, began to be written as a goofy trickster-thief. That characterization continued through the late 1950s and 1960s before the character became again depicted as a vicious killer. The Joker has been responsible for numerous tragedies in Batman’s life, including the paralysis of Barbara Gordon (Batgirl/Oracle) and the murders of Jason Todd (the second Robin) and Jim Gordon’s second wife Sarah Essen.

WHO IS THE BEST JOKER?
In other media, the Joker has been portrayed by Cesar Romero in the 1960s Batman television series; Jack Nicholson in the 1989 film Batman; voice actor Mark Hamill in TV’s Batman: The Animated Series; and voice actor Kevin Michael Richardson in the subsequent animated series The Batman. Nicholson’s version of the Joker ranks #45 in the American Film Institute’s list of the top 50 film villains.

Batman(1966)

Cesar Romero

The clown of crime. The Joker was a prankster, a thorn in Batman's side. This was another favorite villain from the start. His energy level was unbelievable. He was a wild clown with green hair and a white face.








Batman(1989)

Jack Nicholson

ftW.. I can't even remember this film..
but according to my sources, Nicholson’s Joker is still “one for the ages.” The Joker is clearly a character who has crossed over that boundary into the realms of indecency.






Dark Knight(2008)

Heath Ledger

Heath Ledger has redefined one of the world’s greatest villains. He executed on of the scariest performance ever. 2 thumbs up my friends. When I was watching the film Dark Knight I did not know that the joker was heath ledger until the end of the movie.. haha.. I said "what?! si heath ledger yun?! ang galing grabe, d ko nakilala.."

One of my barkada(carlo) said "Alam na kasi nya na mamatay na siya eh. binushos na niya lahat". -happy viewing to carlo-




So who do you think is the best JOKER??

hmm.. for me.. it's definitely Heath Ledger..
comment your answer.. :)
