Many reviewers have applauded this car as the best in class be it comfort, drive , build-qualty or design, than literally all in this junior executive be it the Honda Accord, Toyota Camry, Ford Mondeo, VW Passat or even the BMW 3-series.
Only in price , has Opel lost the plot a bit ( or a lot) . It is almost 30% too expensive to compete well with its rivals.
Only time will tell, if this car is gonna finally pull Opel out from under the other much more vaunted German brands like Mercedes , BMW , Volkswagen and Audi.
will I want one? Yes to drive . To own? Give me a Volkwagen Passat CC or Renault Laguna Coupe , both of which costs thousands cheaper ....
Well, well, well, look who isn't actually Italian. Snooki, alias Nicole Polizzi, aka "The Ultimate Guidette," is actually -- wait for it -- Chilean,
her cast-mate Jenni "J-WOWW" Farley revealed during a visit to FOX's 'The Strategy Room' on Tuesday.
"So what does she mean when she says Guidette?" asked the semi-incredulous FOX anchor, Jill Dobson.
J-WOWW's response? "That's a stereotype that people misconstrued with Italians.
It's a lifestyle. Like, the scene that we're in. It's not like Italian."
J-WOWW is open about her lack of Italian heritage; she's Spanish and Irish by descent. Snooki is adopted by an Italian family, hence her surname. J-WOWW also revealed that "Ron's not full Italian either,"
" To all you haters... I ain't singin to you . It's about the Lovers. Leave the stress at home. Tell the drama 'no'. You ain't gonna kill my vibe.This song is about You."
She sings with such eloquence in her opening up-tempo song from her #1 Debut album 'I Look to You' , at the start of her world tour which opened Down Under .
Yes, there are the nasty reviews circulating out there right now about her purportedly mediocre 'breathless' performance and all the drama about audience-walkouts and wanting refunds.
Give her a break ok?
She's not done this for years and is starting an exhausting world tour. She's not hyper 16 'Miley Cyrus' you know?
Too all the nasty critiques out there, here's my 2-cents worth: If you're so good, people would have been paying to see YOU.
But you're nothing more than the hundreds of millions who've seen HER.
So stop the ego-fuelled 'I've got standards' walk-outs you've done to Britney and Whitney.
It's not as if Kylie would do any better dance or song , that clearly, both of which are better at .
Period.
Q ....If you've bought tickets just to be there and hope to see a train wreck, and have something to spill on your own disgruntled life with that "I should be famous too " thought , there are much better ways to spend your money. Like watching the kangaroos watch you and thinking 'Ewww, what's this toad of a human doing in our beautiful wilderness, and quickly hop off.
The usual controversies (other than the bitching of fashionista watch-dogs) such as the seemingly undeserving winners ( a certain Diva-Hustler got a bus loads of Grammies again) and incessant rumours of bribes and favours abound. (Payment in Millions or in Kind, perhaps?^^)
Nothing, however , is as controversial as having Snooki around, of course. Star of hit reality show, Jersey Shore.
Not since Britney Spears, Whitney Houston, Rihanna ,Amy Winehouse, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, had there been another celebrity with quite as many 'Scuttlebacks' in the fodders of tabloids.
But of course,
'Scuttlebacks are good!'
according to Wendy Williams.
Anyway, back to the gist of this entry, observers thronging the red carpet that evening had to do a double-take for , although, Beyonce, Lady Gaga and Taylor Swift were the darlings of the night, Christina Aguilera was also there? Eh?
Q .... Surely Miss Polizzi is pleasing the fashion police.
P.S: I think it is very nice that there are days she wants to 'be tall' and pile it up high with 7-inch plantform heels and her signature 'high-poof' hair and then there are days like these where she's just letting loose, be edgy and have a good time and be totally secure about not being a 5'10 monster girl in NY and LA . Fabulous.
O final do ano de 2009 foi marcado pela megaprodução cinematográfica Avatar, do diretor James Cameron. O filme marcou a história do cinema, bateu recordes e deve estipular novos padrões em termos de captura e projeção de imagens nos cinemas.
Na Coréia do Sul, a produção de James Cameron foi exibida em 4D, com direito a cheiro de explosivos, água e vento nos espectadores.
Mais uma dimensão.
Resumidamente, o cinema 4D adiciona experiências sensoriais a um filme 3D, estimulando os cinco sentidos dos espectadores. Os efeitos podem incluem espirros de água, vento, bolhas, prendedores nas pernas, cheiros, iluminação com estrobos, cadeiras vibratórias — enfim, qualquer atrativo que enriqueça a experiência do público.
Em um filme sobre piratas, por exemplo, a cadeira pode balançar para simular um navio, e água e brisa simulam a força do mar e as condições do tempo. A exibição de Avatar em 4D na Coréia utilizou não menos que 30 efeitos durante os 162 minutos de filme, que incluiam cadeiras que balançavam, cheiros de explosivos, esguichos de água, laser e vento.
A quarta dimensão representa o tempo, ou a passagem do tempo em si. O físico teórico alemão Albert Einstein, por exemplo, contribuiu para os estudos da 4ª dimensão. Logo, cinema 4D é um nome de marketing, criado para continuar uma sequência crescente, de maneira parecida com os MP4, MP9, MP500 da vida. Por mais avançada que seja a tecnologia de Avatar, um filme que desafia os conceitos físicos sobre o tempo nesse nível não deve sair do papel.
Captain EO, um filme 3D exibido em parques da Disney nas décadas de 80 e 90, é considerado o primeiro filme 4D da história, porque aplicou efeitos como lasers e fumaça nas sessões. O filme voltará a ser exibido em 2010 no Magic Eye Theater, na Disney. Na cena, o carro emerge horizontalmente e entra em uma coleção de visões e sons em meio às estrelas.
Em 2009, foram exibidos 10 filmes com efeitos 4D no complexo coreano. No Brasil, a primeira sala 4D do Brasil foi inaugurada em 2009, no Alpen Park, em Canela, no Rio Grande do Sul. As simulações permitem a percepção do vento, respingos d’água e de contatos de objetos, por exemplo. Além disso, um sistema de som de última geração vai garantir alto nível de entretenimento e diversão”, anuncia o site oficial do parque.
Em sua emblemática loja Sony Style da cidade de Nova York, na semana passada, em uma sala cheia de blogueiros, imprensa local e pessoas curiosas sobre 3D, foi realizada uma demonstração completa dos novos Sony 3D HDTVs.
Neste momento as Lojas Sony Style são o único lugar onde você pode ver 3D demo da Sony. Nela a Sony mostra um jogo de futebol FIFA, e previews de PlayStation com jogos em 3D.
Os FED são como os CRT, pois cada um dos pixels individuais é capaz de emitir luz. Isso possibilita a emissão de elétrons através da chamada emissão de campo, como o nome da tela já sugere. Através de um endereçamento em uma matriz X-Y ligada ao cátodo-frio, colocados em oposição a uma placa transparente do fósforo, os elétrons se aceleram até que cheguem à superfície do fósforo e o FED emite luz.
As televisões que utilizam a tecnologia FED apresentam sim, inúmeras vantagens. Foi possível perceber com as telas FEDs, por exemplo, que é possível obter espessuras até menores do que algumas televisões LCD. Infelizmente, segundo a empresa SONY, não há recursos financeiros suficientes para tamanho investimento de produção de telas FED.
Como as telas do tipo SED contam com mecanismos de iluminação individuais por pixels (e produzem luz diretamente à frente de suas superfícies), elas podem reproduzir perfeitamente as cores do sinal recebido, iluminando apenas os pontos necessários, na medida em que é preciso. Para uma cena escura, por exemplo, você veria partes da tela realmente pretas, sem iluminação, ao contrário do tom de cinza exibido pela maior parte dos equipamentos vendidos atualmente. Até meados do ano de 2007, Canon e Toshiba uniram forças para desenvolver e aprimorar os padrões e telas do tipo SED, mas foi justamente esta parceria que resultou no maior dos problemas para o desenvolvimento da tecnologia: uma ação na justiça contra a Canon, movida pela Applied Nanotech, empresa da qual algumas patentes foram licenciadas para uso. No fim das contas, a Canon foi obrigada a comprar toda a parcela da Toshiba voltada ao desenvolvimento da tecnologia SED e a cessar o departamento de pesquisa e desenvolvimento da área. A idéia inicial era competir diretamente com a tecnologia LCD, oferecendo a qualidade das telas CRT com a economia de energia e de espaço das demais, entretanto, depois de tantos atrasos (por causa da ação) e revisões nos processos de produção, boa parte do ânimo da indústria foi-se embora.
The Main cast of the hit MTV reality show , Jersey Shore, are heating up our TV screens with their bold and sexy , wild and hormone-fuelled antics.
Party, sex, booze and controversy is their thing.
Apart from the hit show and its reruns, they are also nicely busy with endorsement deals, guest appearances, talk shows, radio interviews, magazine shoots , modelling ... and music.
They are every where !
Q ... these guidos and guidettes are smouldering to say the least. Cheers!
P.S: Me thinks Snooki looks like Christina Aguilera meets Amy Winehouse meets Lil Kim. :) Which is a good thing right?
The Issue : Wendy discusses with Snooki about the controversy of her show 'Jersey Shore' .
Talk Show diva, Wendy Williams,
Jersey Shore star , Nicole 'Snooki'
Statuesque Wendy got this response from petite Snooki~
Snooki :
"The Italian, whatever, national, whatever their organization is, they don’t understand that 'guidos' and 'guidettes' are good-looking people that, you know, like to make a scene and be center of attention and just take care of themselves... They are old-fashioned. They don't know that; they think it's offensive, because maybe in their time it was offensive, but now it's kind of a compliment. So they don't understand that and that is what we are trying to say. They are way overreacting to the show. We're 22 to 29 just having fun at the shore. They are just taking it way out of proportion.
"
Wendy mentioned on the show that 'Jersey Shore ' is in fact , her guiltiest pleasures on TV.
As I am typing this random beauty note, rather fresh out of the Tiger year countdown, I mentioned in my earlier post about leopard prints giving way to tiger stripes, as possibly, (I dread) the next hottest trend for fashion and style.
Less versatile than Leopard prints for sure but at least I can predict that tiger-design nails are in .

After the launch and success of Tata Nano, several auto makers challenged the world's cheapest car by fixing lower prices of their small cars. But now the biggest wonder has appeared in the form of EcoCa Ltd-London based engineering and design firm. The company, EcoCa, has developed the prototype of the cheapest car. The new small car would be a two-seater car with automatic gearbox and convertible roof. It weights only 330 kg very less against Tata Nano's 635 kg. The initial fuel efficiency is around 27-28 kmpl as against 23.6 kmpl of Nano. The prototype has a peak speed of 70 kmph, much lower than Tata Nano's 103 kmph.
