Away once again

So i would say I suck at blogging. I tried Tumblr for my personal stuff and I will say it is easier to blog about life rather then news, but i miss doing this. I just can't push myself to keep doing news.

I need it!

So usually I get into the christmas spirit really early. Not this year. So I need some idea on how to get in the spirit. Any help?

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving one and all!

Global Warming Hoax?!?!?!?

I never believed in "Global Warming" and always thought the media made it bigger then it was. I was amazed to find a story on some guys who hacked into the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change)and stole some emails and other files that contain info that shows "Global Warming" was all a big hoax. Money. That's all it was about. Scare the people so they go and do all this stuff to stop us from heating the earth. I also found this little video that explains a little better then i can. I'm all for not trashing a planet but come on, scaring us so you can make money? Get a life.

It's Been A While!

Hey there everybody who reads this! It's been a while hasn't it?

Un-be-leiev-able

While looking through some stories in the news I found one that really stood out. It was a dashboard recording of a woman getting tazed in front of her children. Not only that, the officer took the woman to the police station and left her kids unattended for 40 minutes.... watch.

Tweet?

The other day I was suprised to see an e-mail in my inbox from Twitter (Which I haven't used in months) It was an e-mail saying I had a new follower. Which was weird... How did they find me? This blog? Maybe. Then today I got a new e-mail saying I had another new follower. This made me actually want to update my twitter but come on... Nobody actually cares. So anyway I have been updating very little but I'm saying where I am in the world because I'm on my way to Orlando, Florida. So follow me. @James_Rocks Also subscribe to me on YouTube!!! Thanks!!! ~ James

Good-Bye iBook

I sold my iBook. By far a great move on my part. That thing was a horrible experience. If you think you might like Mac's, dont buy an iBook. OS X Tiger sucks. It sometimes doesn't start up on the first try. Things are hard to find and work with. The one button clicking tool sucks!!! You can barely figure out how to save pictures with that. It couldn't play videos (but that might be my problem) So if you might want to get a Mac... don't get an iBook. If price is a problem for you... go with a PC. Windows is a great operating system (not vista though..... vista is bad. Click here for more on why.) Thanks for reading! ~ James

Bing... A jamesblog Review

Bing is here. I've spent a while on the site looking to see my likes and dislikes. Bing looks pretty promising and I will be using often now to see how well it is for everyday use. Here are some of my likes and dislikes. Likes:

• T.V. shows - unlike Google who hides there T.V. viewing page... (yes Google has T.V. It's called Google T.V. You need to be special to get in.) Bing just comes out and says, "Here are some shows. Ta Da!" Which is nice.
• xRank - this shows you what Bing users are searching the most. A pretty cool feature. Shows you top searched over all, musicians, celebrities, etc.
• Local - shows you local business's and stuff around you. A great feature for finding something new to do.
• Searching - has to be my favorite part. Bing doesn't just give you a site, it gives you everything. I searched Applebees and it showed me resteraunts near me, nutrition facts, recipes, franchise, etc. By far a great move on Microsoft's part.
• Easter eggs - in other words hidden stuff. When you scroll over the picture you find small squares which tell you about that place.

Dislikes:

• Looks a lot like Google....
• Doesn't have as many features (but it's brand new... cut it some slack James...)
• Says stuff for Live Search and MSN.... kinda dumb if you ask me.

well check out bing.com and tell me what you think!

Thanks!

Bing!

Most people know what Google is. Most people know what Microsoft/Windows Live Search is. Microsoft doesn't relly like how Google is the practically the ultimate search engine. That's were Bing comes in. Microsoft is releasing a new browser sometime in the future. I want to tell you all about it but I'm just going to give you the link to the site. From there you can watch a video about it and learn more. Also if you have noticed I changed my header to a Windows picture. I did this because Mac's are really starting to bother me lately. Tell me what you think by commenting or sending me an e-mail. Click here to visit the Bing website.

The New Apple Tablet

Have you heard of Apples next big thing? The Apple Tablet? If not then let me tell you about it. Its a new handheld touchscreen Mac. Impressive right? This will be much better then netbooks but at a little more of the cost of some like the eeepc. Apple will most likely shoot for $700 for it. Is it worth it? It's all about if you want portability and if you like Mac's. I personally do not considering my iBook is very bad at times and a little harder to get use to the whole OS X Tiger. Leopard may be easier to use but i dont know considering I will probably never buy one considering the price. I prefer XP personally but again... all opinion. If you wanna read more, click here. Although this isn't available to purchase right now, it should sell pretty well.

Thanks For Reading!

Countdown To Launch

I made this for those of you who want to know how long they have until the launch of space shuttle Atlantis for the last mission to hubble. Click here to view mine or click here for NASA's site for the launch. Thanks ~ James

The Last Mission To Hubble

The Hubble Space Telescope was first launched on April 24, 1990. Since then there have been 4 servicing missions to Hubble. On May 11, 2009, the final mission to Hubble will be made. So far, Hubble has served us 19 years providing us with a deeper look into space. We have come to see so many new sights in space. New galaxies, new nebulas, new stars, etc. Although this is going to be a new benchmark in space history, it is sort of sad. After this mission, the Hubble is predicted to last until 2014. The sad part is not that, the sad part is that it will most likely be retired. I personally think thats kind of sad. If you would like to learn more about the Hubble, click here.

Stupidity Strikes Again!

Stupid people will never go away. They will always believe the most crazy things. Like a online web site that will tan you through your computer screen. What happens is, you go to the site, after a moment or two... your screen will change into those bars that are in tanning beds. First they are white, then blue. When you go there, you here voices saying how it works. What's funny is that this site has had over 1 million hits. People amaze me. If you would like to read an article on it click here. If you would like to visit the site that will tan you through your computer screen!!! Click here.

Money, Cars, and Coffee

Ah money. What a wonderful/horrible thing. Ah cars. Such a great way to get from point A to point B. Ah coffee. What a great way to start your morning. Why does it matter about any of those? Well Chrysler is most likely going to go bankrupt and from my guess Starbucks is too. Chryslers tried to win over the current debt holders of their company in hope to save it. In sad news, this failed. This is bad because this means almost certain bankruptcy. Horrible right? Maybe not for you all you foreign car drivers. But for the people who like Americas and American companies, should buy an AMERICAN car. That's just my thinking though. Also, Starbucks profit fell a big 77%. Not good... because without coffee from Starbucks, the world is going to end for all those college students! Personally I don't think coffee is all that good. Its water with some beans, sugar, cream, etc. It's nasty. Well after reading this I hope I informed you on buying AMERICAN!!!!! and that with your help college kids lives won't end so soon. You can change the world, buy buying an AMERICAN car or buying coffee. Change the world, and help out the people around you. Like Chrysler, GM, Ford, Starbucks, etc.

Thanks!

SWINE FLU!!!!!

Do you watch, listen, or contribute to todays news? If you answered yes to any of those, you have probably heard of the swine flu. Are you scared of it? Do you know what it is? Did you know that the media is creating an epademic and trying to scare you? Did you know that it's working? Yes... I know... Swine Flu is bad. Although we have this outbreak, not many people have died from it here in the U.S.A. In Mexico, yes. Many have died from it there. It is a freaky thing. I remembered when I first time I heard of the Bird Flu. I was freaked out. The news stopped talking about it so i forgot... and moved on. That's what you should do if you're scared. Before the news started reporting on it, some people would have never heard of it and wouldn't have been scared. So go back to your happy place... back in March maybe... when you didn't hear jack about the swine flu. It's a happy place! So go back there... and move on... and get calm... and don't catch the swine flu. If you do catch it or already have it my prayers are with you. Also visit CDC. They have the stuff on Swine Flu like how to avoid it and all that good stuff.

Thanks!

Obama vs. Bush Administration Lawyers

My best friend sent me the contents of an e-mail. It talks on what Obama is trying to do. Just read on. The e-mail stated, "Waterboarding- dumping water on top of a prisoners head causing uncomfort but not anything perminent. Used to get information from captured terrorists and to train AMERICAN soldiers! Not a form of torture! Obama looked at documents stating that laywers from the bush administration gave their opinion that waterboarding was not torture and the document proved that by using waterboarding on terrorists that contributed to 9-11 they found information that terrorists were planning an attack on california. By using tis information they stopped an attack on California that saved 10s of thousands of American lives. What obama and the democratic media everyone was that the bush administration condoned torturing terrorists. Now obama is trying to prosecute lawyers from the bush administration even though they won't be punished because they didn't break any law. All the lawyers did was state their opinion! Also there is no law against waterboarding because any smart person would know that it's not torture! Obama knew that if he only said the bush administration condoned torture and not the other parts of that document that most of America wouldn't dig any deeper and side with him, even though he lied and didn't seek the whole truth. What he's really trying to do is prosecute the people that saved over 10,000 lives in California!" Amazing right? Although it may be cruel, its effective. Would you rather have those people die? I wouldn't.... but that's just me.

Thanks for reading and thanks Bradley for sending me that e-mail!
