First Cruise Experience - Lots-o-Pics

h22a@7400.Rpm — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 14:07:28 GMT

So last week wifey, Sienna and I went on a 7 day cruise for our 5 year anniversary. Wifey couldn't part with Sienna, so we brought her along, but love every minute of it. Before the trip I was a bit sceptical. My mind set was that cruses were for old people. Boy have my impressions changed. So much so, that I'm now sold, and would prefer a cruise over staying at a resort.

We went on the Royal Caribbean - Freedom of the Seas. Used to be the worlds largest cruise ship until the Oasis was built.

Here are some pics.

1999 Prelude

Ruffneck_Lankan — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 17:20:24 GMT

I just bought my first Prelude, the stock deck came with the car. The problem is that the deck needs a password. I went to Honda and they wanted a 100Bucks to do it.

Does anyone know how I can get the password without paying????

Google TV

Lord Dragon — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 15:42:54 GMT

Interesting...

http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology...internet-apple

Free is nice...

Quote:

Google will launch its Google TV service, which it intends will bring the web to TV screens, in the US this autumn and around the world next year, its chief executive, Eric Schmidt, said today.

In its sights will be a slice of the �117bn global TV advertising market � which it will want to add to its online advertising revenues, which totalled $22.9bn (�14.94bn) in 2009.

The announcement, just a week after Apple's chief executive, Steve Jobs, unveiled a miniaturised version of his Apple TV, which lets people rent films and TV shows, and stream content from YouTube, shows that the television set has become the new battleground for the two companies, which are also competing for market share in the smartphone and tablet computer markets.

On the latter topic, Schmidt told the closing session of the IFA consumer electronics show in Berlin that Google will announce partnerships later this year with computer companies making tablet computers rivalling Apple's iPad, and that they will use Google's new Chrome operating system for computers rather than its Android product, which has been used so far on smartphones and a slew of tablet computers announced at the IFA show.

Schmidt said the Google TV service, which would allow full internet browsing via the television, would be free, and that Google would work with a variety of programme makers and electronics manufacturers to bring it to consumers.

But Google does not envisage becoming a programme producer in its own right, as that does not fit its model � which is to use other people's content rather than to create its own. The only content that Google produces itself is Street View, which has been the source of a number of privacy complaints in various countries.

"We will work with content providers but it is very unlikely that we will get into actual content production," Schmidt told journalists after his speech.

Google TV will consist of software written by Google embedded into hardware made by other companies: in the US, Schmidt said, it will launch on three products � an HDTV set and a Blu-ray player from Sony, and a set-top box from Logitech. Google will also run a marketplace for small apps to run on Google TV. The content will use Adobe's Flash Player, used on video sites such as YouTube and Vimeo. Demonstrations of the TV at the show suggested that it will look like a simplified computer interface, with widgets offering information about the weather, time and calendar, but also with links to web browsers, Facebook, email and YouTube.

However, there is still doubt about how easy it will be to integrate content intended for viewing on a computer with that for a TV set. Google's own guide for developers says that "all input devices for Google TV will have QWERTY keyboards" but adds that "users needs interactions that are fast and easy to do � at a distance, with one hand, in the dark." It also hints that people may be able to control the screen via a mouse, but admits that "mouse control is difficult" on a TV set that is on the other side of the room from the user.

So its been a while since I posted what a good bish I'm gonna make one day thread

Sunday took the chicky fishing, she caught her first rainbow trout ever and all though I would love to post pics of that, I'm gonna refrain and respect that part of the relationship....for now :P

On the way home, we stopped by a farmers market and picked up some really nice local items.

Here we have fresh baked rosemary bread with olive oil/balsamic for dipping, fresh pumpkin saut�ed with butter and onions and dash of cinnamon, garlic and herb roasted blue potatoes, roasted peaches and cream corn removed from the cob and a pair of Sterling Silver striploins which hit the spot. We capped it off with an extra special bottle of Amarone, 2004 Cantina Di Negrar Della Vapolicella Classico that I was holding onto for a while and figure what the heck! We were sipping some ruffino chiante ducale prior to opening the amarone that was left over from the night before, thats what you see in the glasses.

Dessert, not pictured was a fresh strawberry rhubarb pie with a healthy scoop of frozen vanilla yogurt.

Sorry for the crap pics, snapped them on my camera phone, was too lazy and hugry to get a real camera from upstairs.....

Possible charges in Moto2 death

I guess they just stretchered him off instead of stopping the race and having medics on the scene to check on him. They even dropped him.
- should never move an injured person without first checking the extent of their injuries.

Quote:

MISANO, Italy - Nineteen-year-old Japanese Moto2 rider Shoya Tomizawa has died after a crash during Sunday's San Marino Grand Prix, the second death in the sport in two events.

Doctor Claudio Costa, part of the motorcycling world championship's medical team, told reporters the news.
Riders in the premier MotoGP class were also informed after their race, won by Dani Pedrosa.
"I found out now, when things like this happen nothing else matters," world champion Valentino Rossi told Mediaset television. "He was a lovely guy, it was a horrible accident."

Suter's Tomizawa was traveling at full speed when he fell off before a corner and was hit violently by the bikes of Alex De Angelis and Scott Redding, who both also tumbled but looked relatively unhurt.

Moto2, the new name for the former 250cc category below MotoGP, still generates huge speeds and officials said they decided to continue with the race after the crash because of the fear of other accidents if a red flag was suddenly shown.
They added that Tomizawa was alive when he was taken from the track and rushed to a local hospital on Italy's east coast. He was pronounced dead soon after.

Quote:

The prosecutor of Rimini has reportedly launched an investigation into the death of Shoya Tomizawa following the Moto2 Grand Prix at Misano.

According to the Italian ANSA news agency, Paolo Giovagnoli will begin an inquest into the 19-year-old�s tragic death in a move that could also see criminal charges being brought.

Tomizawa crashed on lap 12 of the race into the path of Alex de Angelis and Scott Redding, but the race was not stopped as track marshals swiftly stretchered him off the circuit.

However, Tomizawa was then accidentally dropped by a marshal when they stumbled whilst carrying through the gravel.

With an impending autopsy set to reveal exactly what contributed to his death, ANSA says Giovagnoli is considering bringing charges to individuals that are yet to be identified.

The news comes after MotoGP officials defended the decision not to stop the race to allow Tomizawa to receive treatment at the track, claiming they were better equipped to deal with his serious injuries behind the scenes.
