Beautiful Wasps Having Sex

And that sums up the new X-Files 2 I Want to Believe movie - a love story. Ok wait, that's just an opinion from some twoot at KansasCity.com.
Just watched it today. If you haven’t seen it yet, you should. Let me spoil one part. The subject title above was actually a book just beside Dana Scully in one scene in the movie where Scully and Mulder were “sleeping together” presumably, a scene of them after sex. LOL, that would make perfect sense but wait, there's something more to it. I went googling on the title and sure there existed a book with that title albeit a different cover used in the movie. Apparently, the author of the book is Dori Carter wife of Chris Carter, the creator of the X-Files. More on that here. Speaking of the cover of the book in the movie, I thought it looked something like the image above if my memory serves me right. :D Correct me if I'm wrong (I didn't hold the remote). I need to find a screenshot on that.
All in all, I thought it was so-so. It was an okay movie, leaning more towards drama and thriller. This movie is a continuation after the final episode(s) where Mulder is quoted saying “I want to believe that the dead are not lost to us. That they speak to us as part of something greater than us — greater than any alien force. And if you and I are powerless now, I want to believe that if we listen to what's speaking, it can give us the power to save ourselves”. I see it as a probable “real” conclusion to end the X-Files saga aka “The Extraordinary Adventures of Mulder & Scully” although Chris Carter mentioned that he wants to believe in a third movie that would go back to the mythology of the series particularly the alien invasion due to begin on December 22, 2012, as revealed in the series finale”.
To be honest, I thought this was just like watching a two part CSI (minus those micro CGI effects thingy). Or, watching two episodes of the X-Files series combined. In anime, that would be like "special episodes" or an OVA that just might bear significance to the whole story.
I predicted a “messiah” kinda mystery that would involve supernatural stuff after watching the teaser trailer back then but I was wrong (but nothing that negative about the movie). It turned out to be sort of like, a “detective” type movie leading to a chain of related disappearings along with gruesome discoveries involving with a Catholic Pedophile Priest, to summarize. Pedobears anyone? :D
I think I may watch it again once, to pick the important details I may have missed. I hope I’ll still be alive by then if there’s gonna be a third movie. I was and still presently am (despite the 2nd movie) really, really hoping I’d see another X-Files movie back to its original roots, the extraterrestrial. I have doubts this movie will hit it big time (a requirement for the next movie) especially with the "decline" and the releases of block busters such as Batman but I WANT TO BELIEVE!!!!!

Studio Ghibli's Ponyo on a Cliff

Its 4 days past the premier of Studio Ghibli's new movie by the great Hayao Miyazaki, Ponyo On A Cliff, released on July 19.
Ponyo on a Cliff is said to be a masterpiece visually and heavily based on countless hand-painted watercolours, and only the second Ghibli film to have that look; the first for Hayao Miyazaki however. Not only that, Ponyo on a Cliff will not feature any CGI work. Hayao Miyazaki dabbled with the technique for the backgrounds of Howl's Moving Castle, but has abandoned it for this film.
Ponyo on a Cliff is about the a goldfish princess named Ponyo who wishes to become human. Along the way, she befriends a 5-year-old boy named Sosuke. One of the major themes of the movie is the closeness between a parent and child.

Notably, Miyazaki took 20 months of production for this film, the longest ever taken by him.
According to a source, this movie was fueled by rift with his son Goro who directed Tales from Earthsea which Hayao publicly critised. Goro, in turn, accused his father of sabotage.
It was said that the author of Tales from Earthsea, Ursula K. LeGuin wanted and personally asked Hayao to direct Earthsea but he was preoccupied during that time. Le Guin was generally disappointed with the film, if not as outrightly disapproving as she been of the Sci Fi Channel miniseries, as both adaptations added major characters and events which she felt were unfaithful to her work in terms of both content and spirit. Most of all, she was saddened that Goro's father Hayao Miyazaki missed chance to direct it. (The elder Miyazaki had asked permission to create an Earthsea adaptation back in the early 1980s, but Le Guin, not knowing his work, or indeed anime in general, turned him down. After viewing My Neighbour Totoro, she then came to the idea that if anyone should be allowed to direct an Earthsea film, it should be Hayao Miyazaki.)
Goro's attitude wasn't complimentary either, describing Hayao as “A goose egg as a father and 100% as a director." It is believed that Goro also indirectly pulled the trigger forcing him to retire from his passion in this industry.

"(Hayao) has the sense of crisis that he is being driven into retirement by the young generation," said Ghost in the Shell director Mamoru Oshii in an interview with CH4. "He tries to kick the other party to the bottom of a ravine, even in the case of his own son . . . Miya-san's motivation be full of . . ." Anime101

Its possible that Hayao resented his son stealing Tales from Earthsea right out from under his nose. Can't blame Hayao who is in my opinion the greatest animator legend esp in anime. At the peak of his legendary career, I believe as the imperfect human, one will always be confronted with issues such as that raised by Mamoru Oshii.
Hayao the great is using Ponyo on a Cliff as a means of restoring relations between himself and his eldest son. Studio Ghibli has admitted that Hayao, after serious reflection, used Goro as a model for the character of Sosuke when he was 5 years old. With Ponyo, family relations are certainly on Hayao's mind.
"I read the completed storyboards until the end," claimed Nishioka during an interview on The Ghibli Channel, "and noticed that a terrible secret is hidden in the theme song."
I certainly hope that Hayao would work out things with his son and be allowed to freely continue his works/efforts in spreading the anime gospel. Here's hoping Ponyo will be successful!
Can't wait for it to come subbed early too on torrents :D

Babe Focus: Nereida Gallardo

So yeah, this has been everywhere. And LMAO cos I've been continuing making posts like this. Well, call posts this reference for my fapping purposes. :D LOL
Now, back to where I should've started. It was reported that busty Nereida has been dumped by "football primadonna" Cristiano Ronaldo despite being denied by Nereida. The British media cited Portuguese tabloid 24 Horas as reporting that the reason for the split was "a secret of the gods". (yeah. gods huh. LMAO)
In another source, it was quoted that Ronaldo was jealous of her past relationships (one of them being with Real's Sergio Ramos), and because his mom thought she was only dating him for the money and likewise, to boost her own fame.
I guess you just can't have it all. In any case, I don't really feel she's bothered. ;)

Conclusion
I've to admit that initially, I thought she was plain (and at one time, fugly) as I've only seen very few of her pictures. After checking out this, I totally changed my mind. Boobs ftw!! *faps* and *drool* LMAO

My Words Speak Louder than Actions

Calvin & Hobbes comic strip for teh WIN!
Btw, Hayao Miyazaki, anime legend bigger than Walt friggin Disney imho, newest anime movie is out! Released officially yesterday (on July 19 on 481 screens, and I was going to blog on that too but slept it out) entitled 崖の上のポニョ, (Gake no Ue no Ponyo) or in its official English title "Ponyo on the Cliff by the Sea". More on that later.
While its success was argued, heard it came out big. Sweet!

P/S: Can't wait for it to be either available in big screens over here (which I doubt it) or the torrent subbed release :D

The Dark Knight Must-Haves

Truly EPIC. Legendary.
I still can't shake off this great impression after the movie. I'm speechless. And there's still a powerful urge to watch it again. Such is the power of Heath Ledger's acting that really brought the evil Joker to life. He really deserves an Oscar for this. Definitely.

"Ledger's work is improbably droll, impossibly creepy, meticulously detailed. See for yourself." M. Phillips of Chicago Tribune

Heath Ledger "is the movie's animating principle and anarchic spark - an unstoppable force colliding with the immovable objects of Batman and director Christopher Nolan's ambitions." Ty Burr of Boston Globe

So yeah, as if watching the movie wasn't enough, I went to their website to check out if there are any cool downloads to leech off. There sure were. You peeps just gotta check it out. Wallpapers, a screensaver... even the posters are there!


More @ The Dark Knight Official web

To conclude, I'd like to echo Burr's final conclusion of his review of this movie ultimately referring to the great loss of Heath Ledger:

"In the end,... the achievement's more than that, or harder. It makes you mourn a gifted man's... death with fresh and vigorous sorrow".

Indeed, something harder to swallow nor accept for a sudden, forced curtain call by the actor himself.
In my probable next visit to watch the movie again, I'd need to pay proper respects this time which I should've done earlier. A self moment of silence.
Second to none, Heath Ledger RIP.

My 10¢ of the movie “The Dark Knight”

Right now I’m here typing at one of the many colourful benches inside freakin’ over-hyped 1Borneo. Hours back, while waiting for my mom to finish her meeting in town, I was at Growball Cinemax, Centre Point to watch Batman’s newest flick “The Dark Knight”.
Initially, I was going to doze off at any random movie or just get doses of caffeine @ a coffee shop, with style that is, until it was time. It turned out to be a waker instead; I didn’t even need drugs uh, caffeine. I actually enjoyed my so-called “random movie” thoroughly. I was kept at edge of my seat throughout the whole time.
Buttman uh, Batman I mean, and Joker are officially my role models. While Christian Bale was in his expected awesomeness as usual, Heath Ledger was the man of the show. The whole movie was awesome actually. Just when I was getting immensely bored and sick of Superhero flicks, Joker Batman saved me from what I call the death of Superhero movies.
***Here’s my 10 cents:

1. Bat Mobile (Batmob) can transform to a uber cool Batbike. Awesomenesss!!
2. The nearest thing to a Batmob? Get a Lamborghini. The Reventon is closest to a Batmob. That being the case, Lambos easily owns lame Ferraris, Mercedes McLarens, BMWs, etc.
3. Your gf (or ex) is more than expendable for whatever reason there is. Hell, you don’t need a reason to kill your gf. My man point is, you don’t need a gf to rule the world.
4. Heroes are evil as well. They should all die. Genuine heroes aren’t heroes if catch my drift (even if you don’t, that’s ok too). That being said, they’re in a different league, one of a kind. I hereby name these newtype as Neutrals.
5. Christian Bale == Batman. I’ve to admit he’s the best Batman to date (and probably the best there ever will be). A sincere thanks to the forces of the universe, Batman role wasn’t some lame asshole with Pitt or Cruise as his last name. Bale may have missed out the chance of being James Bond but fuckity fuck James Bond. Batman owns Bond.
6. Batman isn’t a hero. He’s the dark guardian of real Justice even if the world isn’t ready for a new type of saviour.
7. Thou shall worship Batman. Any other shall be deemed Atheism. Batman wannabes will prolly be raped and then, put to death. That means, thou shall not imitate or misuse the almighty Batman. Why you ask? Watch the movie and see how Joker treats em. He makes em laugh before being put to sleep.
8. Remember Slaughter is the best medicine!
9. The late Heath Ledger ftw! If you don’t know what the Net lingo “FTW” means, it stands for “for the win”. He was truly awesomely evil as Joker and he is my hero in this movie hands down. Awesome quote from Joker: “I’m an agent of chaos; chaos is fear.”
10. Heath Ledger, truly an excellent actor, you'll definitely be missed. You were second to none. Should there be another Batman flick with Joker, it'll never be the same. RIP.
    

The only shame I had was that I had to rush out in the middle of the movie just to take a leak. And LOL, I had it kept long.

***subject to change at any time

Special Note: All points made are not to be taken at heart and to be used against me, a being higher than you. If you do, Joker will prey on you.

Frig you Dmitry Shapiro!

That's the message I got when I tried to access Veoh today to catch up with some series that I subscribed. Just when I thought being dumped by a girlfriend via MSN (WLM now) was bad, this is worse. Prolly the rudest awakening ever.
If you don't know what is Veoh yet, to put it simply, Veoh is just like Youtube. If you dunno even what is Youtube, you've prolly been hiding underground too long. Check out the entry in Wikipedia for more info.
Reason behind the ban? (source)

#1: “Unfortunately Veoh has ended service in your country due to a low concentration of users. Veoh is maintaining service in countries when we have the highest concentration of viewers.”

#2: “Veoh is maintaining markets when we have the highest concentration of viewers.”

According to Wikipedia, this outrage started last month on June without warning. (Shit, I should've finished my downloads before then). As of now, a total of 169 (and growing) countries are in the blacklist.

"Veoh has betrayed 85% of its community without notice nor apology, yet still retains the uploaded data so that the privileged few can still watch and download what is now classified as stolen property."

fcuk, there goes the videos I was going to download... I've even started halfway. Back to slow BT. Sheesh.

EDIT 1: It seems there may be little hope without paying for a VPN. I'm gonna try it. If it works, I'll mark it here. Peace.

EDIT #1: Info on the anime was taken from ANN Network. Episodes on the other hand are available via AnimeSuki. Downloads uses BT (Bittorrent). Of course if you google enough, you might find direct links. ;)

Its still to early to say this but among all three that was mentioned, I hafta say that Natsume Yuujinchou strikes me up the most. Somehow this one gives me joy or that the similar vibe, to put in a different way) when I watched Zettai Shonen and Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi (two of my all-time personal favs). I thoroughly enjoyed Zettai Shonen and Abenobashi till the end and I hope I'll get that similar feeling as I continue to watch Natsume Yuujinchou.
fyi, all three of the anime above are based on its own manga titles. I haven't read any yet though. I might make a post if I do have that urge to go further by reading the manga.
Also notable, all three have also "ear-catching" OPs and EDs (at least, for me). I'm definitely going after the OSTs when they come out. I hope I don't get bored to listening to it every episode that'll kill off my short term interest.
In any case, if you're an anime/manga fan, you should mark these. Cheers!

Babe Focus: Grace Park

Very inviting... :drool:

my personal fav, it still gives me nosebleeds.

Verdict: She doesn't have an impressive rack and she's even 34, married but still I think she's hawt. I digg "mature" ladies (I guess she counts as one. Haha). Definitely fappable.
If you don't know yet, she's best known for her role in BattleStar Galactica (tv series).

The first image and this one was taken for Maxim mag I think if I'm not mistaken

here's another fav

This is some sort of random post btw (heck, every of my posts are random). Posts that people will probably sneer at or totally ignore or worse put me in the blacklist. lmao

Cristiano doesn’t know Nereida’s already slept with one (or more) of Real Madrid’s top players

"Sergio was there with two friends and they and Nereida’s mates all ended up back at his house. Sergio was all over Nereida and ended up leading her by the hand into his bedroom," concluded the article." Source: Goal.com

LMAO...
That's good reason for you, yes you Cristigayano, not to go to Real Madrid. Why? You'll probably end up measuring and comparing every inch of Sergio Ramos that will probably end up in a gayfest glut.
Such is the naivety (and a grave mistake) having a model as a girlfriend, wife, or friend for whatever purpose. Definitely not for the long term. There'll always be those "dark herstories" to contend with anyway. Unless, you're an avid pron lover, you'd try not to think of such things and focus on teh sex and that wouldn't be a pathetic issue. Pasts are supposed to be "pasts", they say.

LMAO, I pity you Cristiano.
On the sidenote, I "envy" you for getting plenty of Spanish booty-loving :D

oooh, nice!

Frog Power!

Frog Power FTW!

Uh, Layout Update?

Small update. I changed me dooom-doooms. ^^;
I actually didn't wanna change especially since I wasn't satisfied with it but I was bored so I figured to play around with the 3 columned one @ BlogCrowds. And so here it is, layout now has 3 columns. The downside of this is, it seems rather unpresentable when viewed at a resolution <= 800 x 600 and I prefer the dashed border on the far left to be on the other side to have that centered look, if you know what I'm sayin. Also that footer posts link ("Older Posts, Newer Posts") will touch the dashed sidebar when extended. Guess I need to tinker a bit more.
Anyway, thx for the tip up Rush!

Favicon-ed!

Yep, I have a new favicon! Can't see it? Check out the url bar or if you subscribed or put me on your blog roll, you might see it there ^^
I hope the creator of the "mascot" won't sue me for over-exploiting his vunderful creation ;) Perhaps maybe I need to get a new mascot...
I worry too much.
Btw, an easy tutorial coming up soon here @ this same post... that is, if I don't get lazy ;)

UPDATE/EDIT:
Ok, here's how to add your favicon for your Blogger Blog. Here's how:

1. First things first, you need an image or create one that you like using your favorite image editor.
   
2. Next, once you've done that. Head to Genfavicon [link], an online icon generator. From there, you could upload and create your icon in .ico format. Alternatively, you could use an editor to manually create/convert one. Once you have created an icon, save it on your PC ideally at a location that you can easily find.
3. After that, you need to upload your image to a host. Make sure you know the url location of your image after you've uploaded it. If you don't have a webhost, you can google around and find a suitable file host of your liking to host your images. There are loads of image hosts. Me, I use Googlepages instead of others since I have an account @ Google. If you made an account with Google, you'll automatically be registered to all of those services and I recommend that you make use of them. ;) Whatever host you decide on, remember to make sure that the host accepts .ico, or .png. Typically, you'll use .ico (I'll be using .ico as a marker here for this tutorial) so make sure of that.
4. Next, log in to your Blogger and from the dashboard under the Template tab, go to “Edit HTML”. Near the top you will see a line like this:-
   <title><data:blog.pageTitle/></title>
   
   Copy and insert the following code below the line:-
   <link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/vnd.microsoft.icon'/>
   Inserting this will also work:-
   <link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/x-icon'/>
   The .ico image format has been used by many but you can also create an image under the .png or .gif format. Ensure that the size of the image is either 16x16 pixels or 32x32 pixels.
   
   If you have a PNG format image, the link to insert is:-
   
   <link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/png'/>
   
   If it is a GIF format image, the link is:-
   
   <link href='URL of your icon file' rel='shortcut icon' type='image/gif'/>
   
   Remember to type in the “URL of your icon file”.
   
5. Save the template. When you refresh your blog site, VOILA! You should be able to see your nice little Favicon next to the blog address.
   

Wordle Rasterbation

A friend of mine recommended these two sites. If you've nothing better to do, check it out. ;)
Wordle [link]
Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.

Rasterbator [link]
The name is a shocker. Heck, even the url is odd. Homokaasu. Hmm...
But note the word "Raster". Does that clear any suspicions? Hmm...
Rasterbator creates huge, rasterized images from any picture. Upload an image, print the resulting multi-page pdf file and assemble the pages into extremely cool looking poster up to 20 meters in size. You could also download a standalone program and do it yourself offline. The difference between using the program and the online generator is that if you do it online there are size/resolution limits.
While you're at it, make sure to check out the gallery. Check out ppl's cribs with their rasterbated image/poster. Awesomeness.

I'm currently trying out the Rasterbator. Me want to print a huge poster of boobs :D

Classified Ads

I was reading about an article in Japan on classified ads [link] and was reminded of an ad I saw recently although it does not fall into the same category. While there's no odd matchmaking kinda ads like the ones that are prominently mentioned in the abovementioned article, there's an abundance of ads from odd job descriptions, pointless "free" seminars, to questionable products/services. While it is suspicious, those ads do the job. Smart.

Back to the ad I was talking about, this particular ad was about some kind of online job listing that they claim would generate about USD$1000-$3000. Maximum earnings for full time, they say. As sweet as that may sound, there’s a hitch. There was no contact details but only a web address for its potential suckers victims readers, to check it. What makes it more suspicious is that its address is not the generic domain ones but it ends with what looks like a sub domain or folder.
Kindly correct me, if I’m using the wrong jargo to make my point here. While I may have graduated from a Computer degree, I’ve kinda forgotten most of the jargo and terminologies. ^^;
I actually wanted to scan that ad here for a better legit example but unfortunately I realized it has been sent to be “recycled”. All thanks to whoever who “violated” my room. I should’ve scanned it earlier and post along to make my claim legit. To make that worse, I’ve also somehow lost the link. Anyways, here how the link sort of looked like:

http://www.domainname.com/name/

Note that the link above is generic. I am referring to its format or how it looked in the paper.
My first impression on it was that it indicated a personal user or a profile. My guess was correct. The website will lead you to a page where you will register your contact details under that person’s referral. Apparently, the website cannot be accessed directly. Meaning, if you refer to that format above, the text highlighted in blue is removed. For some reason, you must type that in full. That means if I register, I’ll be under his downline so it is like he benefitted from two things: referral and adding members to his/her downline. Lulz.
The system I’d say is some sort of MLM or pyramid like scheme but instead of that previous “get rich” scheme where you don’t need to sell products, this one does but not exclusively. Like I mentioned, members are also rewarded through referrals and gets commission for victims who fell for it and bought the products. I also feel that the members are paid for the contacts they’ve made regardless of whether the user registers, or not since I’ve noticed a tracking cookie. The website may look ugly but for some reason my firewall also detected that it also was trying to install suspicious third party add-ons. Most likely, spyware or adware.
I wonder how much that person gets through his/her dastardly affiliation.
