We have a feed!?



Ok then, I guess I just accidentally made one. lol.

Have any of you seen this Image?



If you have, you may have noticed it as a growing internet sensation, or "meme" pronounced(meemi). Recently, I have been noticing this image around alot of places. What about all of you?

Review of Harry Potter 6

Some Cedit goes to Wikipedia/Rotten Tomatoes

Someone at Warner Brothers must have used a charm spell on the members of the MPAA in order to secure a PG rating for “Harry Potter and the Half-BloodPrince.” This is one creepy movie, with hexes, poisonings, bloody wizard duels, an undead army, and death. Conversely, it is also the funniest “Potter” movie to date, and the first to explore the raging hormones lurking within our heroes and heroines alike. This combination of teenage nightmares both real (Voldemort) and imaginary (the opposite sex) produces the most grounded “Potter” movie to date, and arguably the best.

The movie begins with a bang, as Lord Voldemort’s henchmen, the Death Eaters, are officially out of hiding and abducting persons of interest, wreaking havoc for wizards and Muggles alike. Once at school, however, Voldemort is the last thing on the mind of Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe). He has to deal with his growing feelings for Ginny Weasley (Bonnie Wright), the little sister of his best friend Ron (Rupert Grint). He also has to diffuse the simmering tension between Ron and Hermoine Granger (Emma Watson), since Ron is too busy “snogging” new girlfriend Lavender Brown to realize that Hermoine is his for the taking. Harry also can’t help noticing that his longtime rival Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) is acting odder than usual, and Professor Severus Snape (Alan Rickman) is by Draco’s side seemingly at all times. But Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) tries to get Harry to focus on the memories he’s collected of the pre-Dark Side Voldemort, when he was called Tom Riddle, as they contain a clue to Voldemort’s seeming invulnerability. Harry, however, can’t help but wonder if the potions book he just inherited, which previously belonged to “The Half-Blood Prince” and contains one rather wicked spell, could be a clue from Riddle’s school days as well.

With all due respect to Michael Goldenberg, the screenwriter that adapted “Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix,” the return of Steve Kloves to the writer’s chair (he had adapted the first four “Potter” films) was an essential move. Kloves doesn’t just give the actors good lines – he gives them personalities, and the child actors, at long last, get to breathe some life into their roles. Director David Yates seems more comfortable this time around as well, staging a couple of fantastic fight sequences, the best looking Quidditch match to date, and even goes Roland Emmerich on a walkway over the Thames. The kids still need to work on their enunciation, but the dialogue isn’t nearly as unintelligible as it was the last time around.

“Half-Blood Prince” also sports the largest cast of any “Potter” movie to date, but unlike the revolving-door-of-dialogue approach of “Phoenix,” everyone gets their chance to shine here. Even the long-forsaken Minerva McGonagall (Maggie Smith) gets a good laugh at the expense of Harry and Ron, and Rickman wrings every ounce of dark humor out of Snape. The newest English thespian to join the troop is Jim Broadbent, who makes potions teacher Horace Slughorn quite likable despite his tendency to milk his students’ celebrity for all it’s worth (which makes him very interested in Harry, naturally). And then there’s Evanna Lynch, whose daffy Luna Lovegood steals every scene she’s in. Wisely, Kloves does not overuse her, though we can see where he would be tempted to do so. She just oozes funny.

Again, don’t let that PG rating fool you; this is going to freak some young kids out, not to mention the game-changing death scene in the movie’s climax. The rating, after all, does stand for “Parental Guidance suggested,” so I urge parents to do just that. Having said that, anyone mature enough to handle “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince” should see it. These wizards and witches have never seemed so human, which is as nice a compliment as one can pay a fantasy movie.

Jans Overall rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars, or 9/10

1 + 1 = 0?

Let's investigate these equations:

1 + 1:
= 1 + sqrt (1)
= 1 + sqrt [(-1)(-1)]
= 1 + sqrt (-1) x sqrt (-1)
= 1 + i x i
= 1 + (-1)
= 1 - 1
= 0

From this demonstration, it would appear that 1+1=0.
Right?
Right!

...right?

Well, we know it's wrong. Let's find the mistake. 1+1 obviously equals 1 + sqrt (1), so no problem yet. The next is also correct, seeing as (-1)(-1) equals 1. Here is the mistake, however:

When imgaining what sqrt(-1) could be, we come to the conclusion of terming it 'i' (for imaginary) in replacement of a better term or solution. Therefore, 1 + sqrt[(-1)(-1)] DOES NOT facilitate i^2 because no longer do we use the variable i since the expression can be SIMPLIFIED. Instead, we simplify (-1)(-1) and get 1, not i^2. Becuase simplifying the expression (-1)(-1) yields the product of 1 instead of -1, we continue to solve 1 + 1 = 1 + 1, getting the result: 2 = 2, the solution. Problem solved.

The mistake lies here:

= 1 + sqrt (-1) x sqrt (-1)

We don't need to separate the sqrt because the parenthases can be solved first (as provided by the order of operations.)

Did you understand why it is wrong? Hope you did! Post your thoughts in a comment.

P.S. do you want me to do more maths posts like this one? I could do one about 2+2=5...

LOL

One Flaw With Gmail Labs and Themes

For the past six months, I have had a vista Laptop. Before i had this, i had to use the houses windows 1998. SUCKISH! However, Labs and themes would not work on this computer, and it does not work (from my observationon older computers, as well as older MACS. If i could take a picture of the windows 98' version, i would. Please disscuss this matter

18 March 2009

Please answer the poll.

Aside of Facebook and YouTube, GMail seems to be the next growing thing. Although it is only in BETA version, it still offers many special features reffered to as "Labs." These are frequently updated by the GMail Team, and are free for you to fully use. Here are some screenshots of the GMail service:


This is the toolbar in the top-right.
Here is the settings page from the toolbar.

This is the list of folders-- as you can see, there is a large variety of different places to file these emails.

Aside of GMail chat, you can also go 'invisible' to turn the green dot next to your name from green to gray. This makes it seem as if you are not online.

A view from the "Compose Mail" option.

As you can see, I get emails when someone posts on the blog!


A general view of the top of the inbox.

Again, answer the poll on the right, and if people seem to want more information, then I will post links to the help center and more screenshots.
Thanks!

Remember to comment if you have any questions and to answer the poll.

Unexpected!

I didn't think that it would work! Yesterday I was playing around with the XML/HTML code of the blog, and I actually managed to add a second sidebar to the blog! Now the blog won't be so long anymore! Most of the tips that I found online happened to be schaliblech, so I figured it out on my own.

I also have a test blog in which I test out new templates that I design. I am now attempting to figure out how to remove all sidebars, so I will post the blog's url if anyone wants to see.

My vista is similar to Jan's

As you can see here, the dell dock is open even when the cursor is not on it, and is fixed.





However, when another application is open, such as word, the dock disappears until the mouse rolls over the upper area.





Docks & Birthdays


Answering Piano Guy's Question, the mac dock is much more expansive, and features a wider range of programs. Heres the windows dock. (I made the Background. LOL). As you can see, the windows dock is settled and doesent move, only lights up when you move your mouse over seleted things.
(This is Vista)
In other news, My birthday is the 21st. I might go to new york or Miami. I already know what im getting for my birthday, becuase my sister told me. LOL.

Dell Dock vs. Mac Dock

It looks as if Dell studio 17 copied Apple:





This is what Dell Studio 17 calls the "Dell Dock." Doesn't it look a lot like the Mac's Dock at the bottom of the screen?

This is what my desktop looks like with the Dell Dock at the top:






What do you think?

Ummm...

Yeah... does anyone know how to edit this blogger template HTML code? Any tricks or pointers?



I've been trying to learn about it, but the only things I can find are codes that people give you.

Click on the picture to see larger size, or just follow these steps to find your blog's HTML:
