Check out this rolltop- the next generation in portable laptops. I think it's really cute and you don't need a laptop carrier for it either. But you won't find it online or in stores yet since it hasn't been released.

Even though I left work feeling oddly refreshed and relaxed, I’ve now had time to process all the crap that built up through the day. One class failed their test. Another class took twice as long to prepare for presentations than I had planned on. And I had a sit down to discuss how I need to stay motivated and work hard in my final weeks. Boss Lady didn’t bother to come either and I’m not sure how to take that.
I wanted to ask about money since I didn’t get paid on time nor receive money for my plane ticket home both of which were due last Friday.
But after the meeting and a no show from the Boss Lady, I feel incredibly uncomfortable asking for the third time when I will get paid.
At least I have cheese cake.
This also proves that just one class can turn your day around.

23 Directors and Producers speak out on Premium VOD...
...in this open letter below:AN OPEN LETTER FROM THE CREATIVE COMMUNITY ON PROTECTING THE MOVIE-GOING EXPERIENCE
We are the artists and business professionals who help make the movie business great. We produce and direct movies. We work on the business deals that help get movies made. At the end of the day, we are also simply big movie fans.
Lately, there’s been a lot of talk by leaders at some major studios and cable companies about early-to-the-home “premium video-on-demand.” In this proposed distribution model, new movies can be shown in homes while these same films are still in their theatrical run.
In this scenario, those who own televisions with an HDMI input would be able to order a film through their cable system or an Internet provider as a digital rental. Terms and timing have yet to be made concrete, but there has been talk of windows of 60 days after theatrical release at a price of $30.
Currently, the average theatrical release window is over four months (132 days). The theatrical release window model has worked for years for everyone in the movie business. Current theatrical windows protect the exclusivity of new films showing in state-of-the-art theaters bolstered by the latest in digital projection, digital sound, and stadium seating.
As a crucial part of a business that last year grossed close to $32 billion in worldwide theatrical ticket sales, we in the creative community feel that now is the time for studios and cable companies to acknowledge that a release pattern for premium video-on-demand that invades the current theatrical window could irrevocably harm the financial model of our film industry.
Major studios are struggling to replace the revenue lost by the declining value of DVD transactions. Low-cost rentals and subscriptions are undermining higher priced DVD sales and rentals. But the problem of declining revenue in home video will not be solved by importing into the theatrical window a distribution model that cannibalizes theatrical ticket sales.
Make no mistake: History has shown that price points cannot be maintained in the home video window. What sells for $30-a-viewing today could be blown out for $9.99 within a few years. If wiser heads do not prevail, the cannibalization of theatrical revenue in favor of a faulty, premature home video window could lead to the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars in annual revenue. Some theaters will close. The competition for those screens that remain will become that much more intense, foreclosing all but the most commercial movies from theatrical release. Specialty films whose success depends on platform releases that slowly build in awareness would be severely threatened under this new model. Careers that are built on the risks that can be taken with lower budget films may never have the chance to blossom under this cut-throat new model.
Further, releasing a pristine, digital copy of new movies early to the home will only increase the piracy problem—not solve it.
As leaders in the creative community, we ask for a seat at the table. We want to hear the studios’ plans for how this new distribution model will affect the future of the industry that we love.
And until that happens, we ask that our studio partners do not rashly undermine the current – and successful – system of releasing films in a sequential distribution window that encourages movie lovers to see films in the optimum, and most profitable, exhibition arena: the movie theaters of America.
We encourage our colleagues in the creative community to join with us by calling or emailing NATO at 202-962-0054 or nato@natodc.com.

U.S. Develops Software Media Social Manipulation
The U.S. Army has developed software that secretly manipulate social media sites like Facebook and Twitter to influence a false online identity to the call via the Internet and pro-American propaganda.
As The Guardian reported, a company based in California for the U.S. Central Command (U.S. Central Command - CENTCOM) under contract, the U.S. military operations abroad in the Middle East and Central Asia to develop software that is called the "Social Service Identity Management" for a person more than 10 officers of different identities checked described worldwide.
Web experts estimated that this project is similar to limit China's efforts to control and expression. Even the U.S. military allowed a false consensus or discussion in online forums is to create negative comments and decide you have comments or statements that are not in accordance with the objectives of the Government.
Indication that the U.S. military, the identity of counterfeit software online, or "puppet" to develop, and state governments, private companies and nongovernmental organizations to encourage them to do the same.
CENTCOM contract requires that should convince any line of false identities, the background story, and other supporting details. We also found that more than 50 officers to operate the controller must false identities of their offices, without the fear expressed by others.
"The technology for the activity of blogs can be used in the foreign language web sites, so combating extremist activities CENTCOM and the propaganda of the enemy outside the United States, said Central Command spokesman, Bill speaking.

FUCK! NOT AGAIN!
So I was working with my Laptop,for like an hour or so, uploading pictures for another post that I wanted to put here on my Blog, when i decided that I was tired of this little error that sometimes stays stuck on my screen, so what I normally do, is, I close my laptop, and wait 'till it stops (it "hibernates") and I open again, and it's gone.
But this time, I close it, and it still was working, cause the fan was still working, so I open again and the screen shows me this "thing" like I was turning On my Laptop (like a loading thing, with the word Acer, which is the brand of my Laptop), and it gets stuck -_- so I closed the Laptop, and the fan still doesn't stop, so I decided to turn off the Laptop trough the main Power botton... what did I do? I waited a few minutes so that it could cool off, and I turned it on again and SHIT! It says it doesn't find the Operating System or something -_- fucking hell.
As usual I hope that I didnt loose my Pictures, some of them I have them on the external drive, others on a CD/DVD, but still there are a few that I was to lazy to copy to somewhere else.
Great Karen juuuust great -_- joder!
