Google has been doing the PR dance again lately. I am quite blessed with what I got. I wouldn’t be too happy about it though as I am taking a cautious approach to this. I fear it may change again in the near future causing some changes.
Anyway, the biggest PR juice loss that I know of up to know is Statcounter where it dropped from 10 to 6. However, I was surprised to see YouTube having a PR3 this afternoon. There is no way YouTube will ever be a PR3.
I checked Dig PageRank and noticed that there are a handful of 8 while the rest is 3. Could this round of update be a mistake or something? There is no way on (Google) earth that YouTube will be ranked 3.
I think one of my three wishes might just come true. I was scanning through my BlogRush widget and saw this article with the title, “Blogging Got You Out Of Shape?”. Although I wouldn’t credit my weight gain to blogging alone, it sure did contribute to some of it.
I clicked on the link and hoped for some recipes or suggestions that I can use. Instead, I saw this PC-desktop-treadmill combination “object”. The original article can be found at Engadget.
To type while walking should be okay but I am not sure if it is possible to type while running. The biggest disappointment of this will be the price tag — retail price at $6,500.
Can someone “build” me this PC-desktop-treadmill thing using custom table and a treadmill please? I think it would be cheaper that way.
I tried solving the Rubik’s Cube when I was in my early teens. I have to admit that I wasn’t very good at it. I did manage to solve it a couple of times although it took me all night to do it. How did I do it?
Well, there was a paper with the instructions in it that came together with cube. I positioned the Rubik’s Cube as it was in the diagram and followed the steps provided. That means I was looking at the piece of paper the whole time without actually looking at the cube. That is why I don’t even know how it was done.
I saw this YouTube video on how some people manage to solve the Rubik’s Cube in seconds! I am simply amazed. Just look at how fast they turn the damn thing. I could never turn it fast enough because if I don’t turn it precise enough, the next turn will be “stucked”.
Have you tried solving the Rubik’s Cube? Did you succeed? What is your average speed taken to solve it?
I couldn’t believe my eyes. Lewis Hamilton could have sealed the driver’s championship in the Chinese GP. Instead, he didn’t even finish the race after his McLaren was beached at the gravel trap right before the pit entrance.
If my memory do not fail me (lack of sleep), his tires were so worn out that he was driving a few seconds slower than Alonso for at least 2 to 3 laps. Why didn’t his team call him in for a tire change? There were others who have pitted a few laps earlier to change onto dry tires. They could have done the same thing but they didn’t. When Hamilton finally headed towards the pits, it was already too late.
I have no idea whose fault this is — the McLaren team or Hamilton’s. Hamilton had a 12 point lead ahead of Alonso. He didn’t even need to win this GP to win the driver’s championship. Winning the driver’s championship in style is not everything. What matters is to win it. If Hamilton fails to become the world championship in the Brazilian GP in two weeks time, he has no one to blame except himself.
I have my own predictions and speculations on who will win the driver’s championship and why. I am too tired to blog about that now. If you are interested, stay tuned.
Earlier this week, I was experimenting on whether lizards are afraid of eggs. I observed for a few days and was quite disappointed with what I saw. I finally decided to take a photo and conclude this experiment.
Are lizards afraid of eggs?
Look at that photo and answer that question yourself. However, I cannot say for certain that the “egg trick” doesn’t work on lizards. I have read others saying that it did work for them. The reason it didn’t work in my case could be due to some “unknown factors”.
What could have caused this experiment to fail?
The lizards did not see the eggs.
The lizards didn’t know those were eggs (bird/chicken).
The lizards dare to fight back and maybe even bite any birds that may fly by.
The lizards are smart enough to know that birds cannot enter through the small opening in the window.
Conclusion
I can’t say for certain that lizards dare not appear in places where you put an empty egg shell. It did not work for me but it could have or could still work for you.
If you have tried it before, did it work for you? If you haven’t, would you please try it and share with me if it worked? Thanks.
