Most of us can agree that the iTouch/Phone is a huge commercial success.

After that, they decided to try another handheld device called the iPad. It's essentially an iPhone, but bigger. It will be released within about two months as Jobs said. Nothing really changed and I wouldn't really call this a true successor to the iPhone. In my opinion, they need to put some more time and effort into this gadget, if they really want to be victorious in selling these stuff to the public. You can find out what I mean, by clicking the link.



Oh and it's 500 bucks a piece for the 16G version, if I remember correctly.

Hitler's Opinion on Obama as of 1/19/10.

You probably already watched it(after all, it was like the number 1 most viewed video of the week), but this video shows his opinion on Obama's performace, the health care reform bill, and of course Scott Brown winning the Massachusetts Senate Seat. With Scott Brown taking the senate seat, 59 is pretty much the highest number they can go and 60 votes is the goal to pass the health care reform bill. :(



Best Comment of this Video: "Ya know what the difference between Obama & Hitler is? Hitler was able to bring the Olympics to his country." Commented by BC9696.

Similar to the Hoover Dam project that dates more than 70 years ago ...

Barack Obama has announced a plan to create new jobs by spending eight billion dollars on quick trains that will be built on many US states. States effected by this big project includes California, Florida, Illinois, Wisconsin, and more. However about 43% of the eight billions dollars will be focused for both California and Florida. These babies will be going up to 150+mph! That's like twice the speed of the highway speed limit. The other states' trains can reach 110mph, while the rest will go no higher than 90mph from the looks of it.



Here's what the layout looks like:

The community service I'm going to be doing soon is going to take place in ARF.

It has to do with creating shelters or enrichment toys for the dogs and cats to use/play with. It makes their place more fun and less boring to experience with while waiting for someone to adopt them. It's about five hours long and I'm not sure if I can do this again after that's done. I'll ask them about that, if I remember.

It's so chilly OUT there! Brrrrr!!!

How in the world can anyone stand against the chilly winds in Midwest, which was recorded 52 degrees below zero? One of the people there said even her nostrils turned frozen solid from just going from the house to her vehicle. The outcome from these extremely cold temperatures include people dying from hypothermia, schools were closed, the rate of car accidents increased and some vehicles are literally immobile thanks to the abundant amount of snow and ice.



Looks like these buses aren't going anywhere until all this snow is moved out of the way.

An anti-whaling boat(Ady Gil) has lost its bow during the collision ...

with the Shonan Maru, a japanese whaling ship. They say it's about conducting scientific research to get to know the whales better, but environmentalist and conservationists are little skeptical about their claim and perhaps it's about commercial whaling instead. Minor human injuries were the outcome of this collision from the Ady Gil. However, it's very important to remember that rescue is far from reach when you're located near Antarctica. Safety first. :)

Although unlikely, the results are extremely devestating.

A meteorite about the size of Texas will wipe out almost all the life on this planet.



It's a pretty a long video, especially on Youtube. I'm surprised this was posted before 2005. That's when Youtube was created if I remember correctly.

If my twitter updates don't get fixed, here's the link to my twitter page.

I think most of us, if not all of us, have heard about the "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition".

Just to give you the nuts and bolts about this show for those of you who don't know. It's about a show about helping people in real need. You need two good reasons why you need a makeover and send it to the show via video. If it seems plausible, they will do it and send you and your family on a sweet 7-day vacation while they work on your new house.

Now that's sounds like a pretty nice deal, but just because you get the awesome house; doesn't mean you get the mortgage as said by Brian Wofford(who is facing in deep trouble trying to pay his mortgage). He's not the only one facing this sticky situation; a couple other people are having the same problem he has. One of them was the harper family who had to take out a ridiculous, not so recommended $450,000 loan! That's like a half-million dollars! How in the world are you going to pay that back in the near future? The ABC show might need to check how much they make before making such a lavish house as seen below.



This is Brian's home, by the way.
