Justin Germino I had wondered how to get free ringtones on my wife’s and my own blackberry devices when I tried various web sites that worked, but were slow or required too much time or didn’t have the songs I was looking for. When someone told me that I could create my own from any mp3 with Audacity I decided to try it out. When I realized how simple it was and that it worked, I decided … Read more
One of my favorite movies of all time is Legend which was released in 1985. This movie is a fantasy story long before the Lord of the Rings trilogy and holds up well over the years, it stars Tim Curry as “Darkness” a creature who worships the night and wants nothing more than to purge light and good from the world. Tom Cruise plays “Jack” a forest child who was raised by elves and forest … Read more
Watch the episode if you missed it or want to see it again, I am also streaming the video live here: Review: This episode had several key highlights for me and most of them involved Sylar and his new found friend. Sylar gradually is showing his empathic side and that he isn’t all bad by rescuing the boy from being captured by the government agents. My favorite scene was when Luke tells Sylar he is … Read more
Normally I don’t do to many reviews of people who contact me asking for a free plug for their sites, but when Lost Zombies contacted me I checked them out and was astounded at the level of effort and style put into this website and whole community. Lost Zombies is an online portal for all things Zombie and is under the premise that Zombie outbreaks are real and a massive one is eminent. It allows … Read more
I have been using PIXResizer for over a year as my default freeware program to take my very large 8 megapixel camera photo images and resize them for use in email or uploading to my blog sites. PIXResizer will let you specify custom sizes, or let you reformat GIF -> JPG, JPG -> PNG… and more. You can also rotate the image or directly output a color image to greyscale with PIXResizer. The first thing … Read more
I was having a hard time creating shapes in Paint.Net, the default paint program only allows you to create rectangles, rounded rectangles, circles, freeform shapes. So I did a little google search and found BoltBait created an effects pack for Paint.Net. This effects pack has a “render” option under effects that can create just about any polygonal shape you need from stars, to hexagons, octagons, anything, you set the # of sides, the depth and … Read more
First off I have to tell you I am a big fan of Ron Perlman and his portrayal of Hellboy from the first film, and a huge fan of Guillermo del Toro the director. I loved Pan’s Labyrinth and this movies creatures and set designs remind me of his previous film in many ways. This movie has it all and starts off fantastic with a flashback to Hellboy’s early childhood years where his father reads … Read more
Watch full streaming episode: Several people have asked me not to use Hulu or find another video that displays outside of the United States, but I could find no legal video streams to support this. I don’t use youtube because it isn’t legal to play full episodes on youtube, I find a valid legal video source and I can’t find any that stream from the US to outside the US. So I still use Hulu … Read more
At first I didn’t think I would be able to watch this episode while I was traveling at CA World, but was fortunate enough to learn that in Las Vegas Heroes comes on at 9pm instead of 8pm in Arizona so I was back at the Hotel by 8:30 and able to catch the show. Updated to include the streaming episode: The episode starts off with a long recap, followed by Ando trying to save … Read more
I was excited to see tonight’s episode after having to wait almost two weeks. Heroes Season 3 Episode 8 Villains did not disappoint. I will review the episode and add my commentary sparsed throughout, rather than be a minute by minute play by play, I think it helps the flow of the review better. After an opening narration talking about what makes some people choose the path of good and others choose the path of … Read more
Watch the Full Episode Here: We start off with Hiro and Ando discussing what path to take regarding the villains where it is revealed that Arthur will become the most powerful man in the world. Hiro is still cautions and does not want to go back in time based on what happened the last time he went back in time. We see Flashbacks to Nathan, Peter and Arthur from Peters dreams, and then he awakes … Read more
HULK SMASH I must say it was a very good movie, much better than “Hulk” from a few years back. Edward Norton does a very good job as Bruce Banner, and William Hurt plays General Ross. This movie basically ignores the previous movie and treats it as if it never existed. Now I did like some aspects of the previous film, such as the fact that Hulk became random sizes based on the strength of … Read more
Watch the Full Episode Here: I can’t even begin to say how incredible this episode was. I was amazed, awed and the cliff hanger at the end left me in such shock and dying to know what comes next week. Once again this review is not in time event order but more of a character progress update and overall flow of the episode. So much has happened in a single episode I do wish the … Read more
First off I have been blasting out posts today and most of them are what I would call “Consumerism” posts, where I am trying to make a little money with my blog. I do try to add my own opinion and flavor to each and every one of my reviews, and actually bring my own life experiences into it to make them more interesting and better than a typical advertisement, I even inject enough information … Read more
Like many people out there was looking to leverage surveys and other sites to help generate a side income or at least win some perks and free stuff. One of the most legitimate enterprises I have found was Nielsen’s Homescan Consumer Panels. This company will actually mail you a bar code scanner, and all the instructions to participate. Picture of equipment sent to me: So, the idea is simple or so I thought. You scan … Read more
