The Great Tablet War

Engadget just posted a specs lineup of all the new tablets coming out. The BlackBerry Playbook being the newest competitor. Definitely interesting. Which would you buy?






From Engadget.com


From personal use, the iPad is severely addicting, but soley for its browsing prowess. I don't use it for anything else, so these others definitely can be considered even despite the lack of apps in comparison to the apple app store. The Galaxy Tab has interested me the most because of the Android 2.2 which supports Flash. I'm not sure if the Playbook supports flash or not. The smaller 7" screen is good and bad. Love having all that real estate but does make it more cumbersome. I'll have to find out more about the PlayBook before I fully decide which is the winner. The 3MP front and 5MP rear is quite impressive however. (Rear really is useless though. Who's gonna take a picture with that huge thing )

Top Gear spied back in the US

GT3 RS, SLS, 458 Italia
 The boys over at Top Gear were seen in NY with a GT3, SLS AMG, and 458 Italia. My guess is Hamster was in the GT3, Clarkson in the SLS, and James in the 458. The trio in the US always make for an epic episode. Can't wait for season 16 to start!

$2010 Vorshlag GRM Challenge Car Build - BMW E30 LS V8

From  to...



Check out this awesome build thread by Vorshlag over at bimmerforums. They enter the GRM $2010 car challenge. They can only spend $2010 for the entire project and compete against others. They convert a BMW 325 they bought off craigslist for $500 to an LS motor from a Chevy truck. The amount of work these guys put into this build is incredible. Follow their progress! Well worth reading every page.

Cher Lloyd Performs Turn My Swag On (Keri Hilson version) on X-Factor




UK's X-Factor from Sept 4th. Was expecting this to be a disaster but she killed it. I hope she sticks to this genre and doesn't sing all pop songs because this really suited her.

= Mass Hysteria!

Boy in Spiderman pajamas scoots along Ill. highway
(from Yahoo.com)

MURPHYSBORO, Ill. – Clad in Spiderman pajamas, a 5-year-old southern Illinois boy on a scooter had someplace to be. And he apparently wasn't going to let busy highways stand in his way. Authorities said Jackson County sheriff's deputies picked up the boy and his Razor-type scooter about 2 a.m. Wednesday along Old Illinois 13 in Murphysboro after fielding two 911 calls about the child's trek.

Investigators said the boy reportedly left home without his parents' knowledge to visit a friend in Carbondale, about seven miles away. Deputies got to him about two miles into his journey, which involved traveling on two major highways.
The boy was unharmed and returned to his grateful parents.



The Spidey Scooter Kid on the Loose!


Just plain hilarious. Damn kids.

Trip to Darr Mine

Inside one of the Darr Mine facilties


Sorry for the lack of updates recently, Labor Day weekend was busy. Anyways, I took a trip to the Darr Mine site in Van Meter/Rostraver/Jacob's Creek, Westmoreland County, PA. The Darr Mine was the site of the worst coal mining disaster in Pennsylvania history. On December 19, 1907, an explosion killed 239 men and boys. The mine is located a few miles from my girlfriend's house, so we took a trip to check it out. Unfortunately, we were unable to locate the main entrance to the mine, but did scope out the other remains of the mining facilities. The place was pretty eery but very cool. Old remains and historical places have always fascinated me. Don't mind the picture quality, they were taken with my phone (Nexus One). Need a DSLR!

Some new songs for the day



Big Sean ft. Mike Posner & Clinton Sparks - Ambiguous
http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/play/s/00b0578-72722/
This one is pretty funny and not bad. Catchy.

T.I. ft. Rick Ross - Pledge Allegiance to the Swag
http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/play/s/2560432-72851/
Good new song by T.I., hits hard. Rick Ross who I loathe holds his own enough not to ruin it. However the use of "swag" today is played out.

Wiz Khalifa - Black & Yellow
http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/play/s/0dae6a6-72849/
Pittsburgh-born Wiz Khalifa. Catchy. Could use a new color remix though.

And in a different direction, a nice track over on Scott Hansen's blog at iso50, a Violens remix of Slowdive's Soulvaki Space Station and Washed Out's Feel It All Around
