Värst vad party det var i bloggen nu då! Jag har faktiskt annat på hjärnan också (lite) men kan inte hjälpa att partysuget ligger på hela tiden nu innan studenten! Fick sålt en hel del biljetter till skivan idag, puh, så nu slipper jag oroa mig för det iaf. Ett par pojkar i nvbio tänker ha klassfest för alla nv-klasser om ett par veckor, SKOJJ säger jag bara! Eftersom det inte blev någon nv-kryssning är det ju perfekt! De ska hyra en lokal och alla måste betala lite, men det är SÅVÄRT när jag för en gång skull slipper sitta hemma och uggla när alla drar ut. tagga tagga.
Imorn blir det skivaplanering med girlsen, på fredag ska Tina tatuera sig (!) så jag ska vara med och hålla henne i handen, sen ska vi käka sushi och hänga på kvällen. Det blir säkert skojj. Så måste jag fixa outfit till skivan och vara med mina korvar också om det passar för alla. På söndag ska jag plugga HIV med lisa! På måndag har vi religionprov (dööö) så måste plugga till det också..
Skönaste flipplåten
Este curioso bocado de pez envuelto en arroz y convertido en la máxima representación del exotismo culinario en Occidente, esconde una larga historia que comienza en el Sur de Asia hace más 2.000 años.
El pescado era en el siglo IV a. c. una fuente importante de proteínas para la dieta de los habitantes del Sudeste asiático. Un bien muy preciado que había que conservar. Para ello, los peces, una vez limpios y destripados, se envolvían en arroz, cuyo proceso de fermentación era el mejor conservante del pescado durante meses e incluso años.
Llegado el momento sólo se consumía el pescado y el arroz se desechaba. La fórmula evolucionó e introdujo nuevos elementos como la presión de planchas de piedra o el vinagre que hacía fermentar más rápido el arroz y en consecuencia, conservaba mejor el pescado en menos tiempo.
Esta curiosa práctica pasó de Tailandia a China hasta llegar a Japón donde comenzó a consumirse el pescado, todavía crudo, junto con el arroz que lo envolvía y que no había llegado a fermentar del todo. Es en Japón por tanto donde el sushi dejó de ser una mera fórmula de conservación para convertirse en todo un arte culinario.
Ante la degradación de la calidad de nuestra alimentación, el sushi se perfila como una solución sana para hacer frente a las exigencias de la vida urbana.El sushi está lleno de beneficios para la salud. Es rico en el ácido graso llamado omega-3, y es bajo en grasa; las algas marinas son ricas en yodo y el arroz es una excelente fuente de carbohidratos. Una típica ración de sushi (de 7 a 9 piezas) tiene alrededor de 300 calorías, lo que cabe perfectamente en una dieta equilibrada y saludable.
Pescado el ingrediente principal.
El pescado es un alimento con muchas cualidades: todos los nutricionistas coinciden en alabar sus bondades.La carne de pescado es menos grasa y contiene más agua que la de los animales terrestres, lo que la hace menos calórica.
El más graso de los pescados es menos calórico que un filete de buey.
Tiene un notable valor nutritivo, puesto que contiene proteínas de excelente calidad con todos los aminoácidos indispensables en una proporción casi ideal.
Por consiguiente, aporta todos los elementos esenciales para el buen funcionamiento del organismo.
Asimismo, el pescado es una importante fuente de ácidos grasos omega 9, omega 6 y omega 3, el famoso «colesterol bueno», tan beneficioso para el estado de ánimo y la sensación bienestar.
Otra de las virtudes del pescado es su contenido en minerales, globalmente better al de la carne, y de vitaminas A y D, que contribuyen a la fijación del calcio en los huesos, además de su contenido en selenio. Este último oligoelemento es indispensable para el cuerpo humano, ya que juega un papel clave en el conjunto del organismo retrasando su envejecimiento y protegiéndolo contra el cáncer o las enfermedades cardiovasculares.
Por último, tiene la cualidad nada desdeñable de proteger contra el cáncer de pulmón si se consume crudo
Otros ingredientes.
El arroz japonés es rico en minerales, fósforo, almidón y vitamina B1, el arroz es un cereal completo cuyo aporte glucídico es sumamente importante y perfectamente recomendable para las personas alérgicas al gluten.
El nori, que son láminas de algas secas, es un alimento libre de grasa y contiene varias vitaminas como la A y la B, y alto nivel de yodo, que es un oligoelemento esencial – ayuda a prevenir el hipotiroidismo o hipertiroidismo.
Los vegetales utilizados también son ricos en vitaminas y proporcionan fibra. En general la combinación de grasas saludables, fibra y vitaminas hacen que el sushi proporcione una comida completa, saludable y sea un verdadero deleite para el paladar.

WIP: Iron–Earth Goddess
Iron–Earth Goddess
Balancing on the rickity chair topping the ancient table, she braced her arms on the top shelf, looking. There was no dust, despite her hatred for dusting. The books despised it themselves. Instead, there were several old small books lined up and several larger, older books stacked one on top of the other. As she gently brought them down, the smaller books shifted, writing stark across their first pages.
'You'll die!' one cackled.
'We'll get you.' another threatened.
'Why bother?' the last sighed, bored.
She ignored them all, sitting in her old chair on her old table, old books across her new jeans. Placing her thin hands on the old parchment, she closed her blue eyes and thought,
'We need to talk.'
Leaning against the four runner, Lot checked her watch for what had to be the fiftieth time and scowled.
“Where the hell is she?” she demanded Greg, glaring icily at him over her sunglasses.
“How the fuck should I know?” he bitched, covering his face from the hot sun with his large straw hat. “I'm not her keeper.”
“You're her goddamn brother,” Lot started hotly, well and truely pissed.
“And if he knew where I was all the time, I'd probably have to shoot his knees out.” Interupting Lot smoothly. O'Bren threw her bag into the open trunk. “Sorry to keep y'all waiting; something came up.”
AN: I had a weird dream the other night about a woman named Lot and how she surrives the end of the world despite overwhelming odds. It's a tiny American Gods, it's a little odd, it's a whole lotta crazy.
Because I have a feeling I am prolly not going to finish this, I might as well sum it up for those of you who watch my scraps. Lot, O'Bren, Greg, and the unnamed fourth woman (I'm thinking Martha) are normal people, apparently, going on a trip to the beach. Instead, they get trapped in a beachfront apartment complex as O'Bren's jelous sister tries to assimilate them like she has the entire town. Greg betrays them by dousing their drinks with apple cider (a rite drink), and Greg and Martha get destroyed. Everything seeming lost, Lot and O'Bren fall into each other on the fire-side chair. Lot pledges herself and all that she is to O'Bren; O'Bren pledges all that she is taken and been to Lot. They survive the storm and exit the cabin hand in hand, strong with the lives O'Bren's sister had taken, and they fix the town.
Lot and O'Bren might show up again in Iron, seeing as Liz the only goddess touched one out there.
I'm allowed to ramble. This is my scraps. “That's what feminism does – it makes smart girls, with nice birthing shapes believe in fairy tales
Anyway, I had a couple of different posts prepared in my mindgrapes for today….
New anthropological discoveries – “My Awesome Girlfriend” Guy, “I’m so Shy I’m Interesting” Guy, “If We’d Only Met 6 Months Ago” Guy, “If We’d Only Met 6 Months from Now” Guy…..
Adventures in personal reinvention: I cut off about 12 inches of hair. Well, I paid someone to do it. Someone who, being a Newyorker who’s very good at her job, tried to subtly sell me on getting it colored. When I positively guffawed at the idea of going blonde, ever, even for five minutes as a joke, she laughed too and told me a story about when she dyed hers copper and what a nightmare it was. A few minutes later one of her colleagues came over to tell me that not everyone could pull off the shorter look, but I had a face so it would definitely work on me. But you know what would be even better? Some highlights! I stated maybe next time, since I was always dying it red. “Red is the first thing I thought of,” she said, which was odd since only a moment ago she’d been suggesting caramel, but I appreciated the sentiment and told her so.
Up until last night I was going to state that I was really enjoying the kickassitude of my new hair, and the fact that eliminating this one major signifier of femininity had totally eliminated the unwanted and unpleasant kinds of male attention one tends to get on the street once women begin wearing skirts and men remember that OMG Legs are a Thing…. But of course last night during the 10 step walk from my front door to the purveyor of cheap ice cream sundaes next door some jackass in the drivethru had to make kissy noises. I was going to storm over to his rolled down window and give him a piece of my mind, but then for a second there was no line and I really wanted a sundae so….
The thing is, I am Really Enjoying the kickassitude of my hair. I enjoy quoting O Brother Where Art Thou to myself every morning as I “get my coiffure in order” and insist that “I don’t want Fop, dammit, I’m a Dapper Dan man” because though I’d never used pomade before, I kind of love how it has replaced my blowdryer and various hold-hair-in-place-implements. And when I wear just jeans and an undershirt and my sneakers out to run errands, especially when I put on my rock star sunglasses… I experience a very pleasant feeling of invisibility because nothing about me is reminding even the construction workers around the corner that “Hey, here’s a Woman-type who’s outside and therefore must Really Want Our Attention.” And I know I look awesome with it. My adorable choir conductor “Brava.” So things are good.

An awesome prank by a math teacher from Biola University that mixes a pre-edited video with live action. Check it out:
Edit: Here’s another hilarious prank from Professor Matthew Weathers.

I would think if this was true, Netflix would announce it on their press release page just like they did with the Wii. I don't see such a thing on their site.
Honestly, if you are a web site with some credibility at stake, why not contact Netflix for confirmation? Its what reporters used to do. Posted by: Angry Zebra |

Mike, great article! Although, toward the end you sound a little bitter – “But if this Netflix for iPad story is indeed an April Fools Joke then its yet another blow against seeing online media as trustworth”. That's rather bold statement. I think most people are practical, and have a sense of humor. Take anything you hear today with a grain of salt, and hit the ground running tomorrow.
My bet is this is an April Fools joke…the interface is identical to the one you see on the computer, plus the button says “Play on Computer”, we all know an iPad isn't a computer just a super-sized iPhone without the phone.

It'd be a pretty elaborate joke if it is one! As Engadget points out, there are photos of the app hosted on Apple's own servers http://a1.phobos.apple.com/us/r30/Purple… and http://a1.phobos.apple.com/us/r30/Purple…). Is this conclusive evidence? No, we'll have to wait until Saturday for that, but it is pretty convincing.

My company's internet filter is blocking the url, but it doesn't block apple.com…so I'm betting against it.

That's an awfully cagey response for a CEO. Do you think netflix could be gaming the expected new media response to news that could be written off as an April fool's joke if not publically received well? A barometer of sorts?
Surely netflix has to recognize the potential for the iPad. But, if they don't or some reason, this could be a risk-free way of testing the waters. If a pundit raises a legitimate complaint or idea that would improve the service, then perhaps Netflix says it was an April fool's joke, yanks the app an goes back to the drawing board. If the press loves the idea, makes no suggestions for the app that the current (if real) app doesn't already address, then they say “yes, even real tech news is released on April 1. Don't be so cynical. Of course we have an iPad app. We're not stupid.”
Personally, I agree with the author that if it's not true, it should be squashed. There's no element of funny in this if it is made up. It'd only serve to make a lot of people feel ignorant.

This is the greatest April Fool's joke of the day:
“Do we see the New York Times getting in on the fun? No. Is that because the folks over there don't have a sense of humor? Not at all. It's because, in order to be a trusted source of information, we need to present only trusted and true information, as much as we possibly can, 100% of the time. Not 364 days out of the year, but 365.”
NY Times only presenting trusted information? HA HA! Good one!
p.s. thought Netflix required Silverlight for streaming? iPad/IPhone don't support that. Maybe Netflix changed their back-end to support something else. If so, that'll be interesting news indeed.

I found it rather interesting that so many media outlets were running with the story despite the date and the obvious obfuscation of the facts. I wrote a quick blurb on it earlier:
http://www.examiner.com/x-13879-iPhone-Examiner~y2010m4d1-Netflix-for-iPad-or-big-April-Fools-joke
The images on Apple's servers certainly aren't conclusive. One of them is simply of Netflix's webpage and even has a Play on *Computer* button. They might just be pictures from a soon-to-be-released unofficial Netflix app.

I'm with the author.
If this is indeed a hoax, and the “so-called” legit news media is passing it on as news, This smacks of attention-getting in the worst way.
What infinitesimal confidence I had in the online news media will be completely gone.
And I'll be pretty pissed at Netflix if they did nothing to stop the spread of this hoax.
It may well be the last time Apple comes out with a product launch this close to April 1.
I don't believe this story is true. Too many inconsistencies.

Mike M: I wasn't necessarily responding to your article, but the premise of your article where other outlets are reporting this as a fact. It is fashionable to report rumors as facts on the web, but honestly, why not wait 48 hours and see what happens? I regret the “you” wasn't specific to App Advice in my comment.
I don't see any news releases from a Saturday from Netflix and I suspect that isn't the most effective way of getting PR for a product release. The VP's comments really doesn't inspire confidence either way as Joe says above.

The whole idea is that it's a believable prank. Tech companies have a long history of April Fool's pranks dating way back to the hackers in MIT's AI lab. Seriously, why do you have to be so bitter about one day of fun? I think it's healthy for us to learn skepticism, and after all of this the only entity coming out looking bad is you, putting on a great impression of a stodgy old xenophobe. You think anybody on Reddit believes they're an admin, or that they can infinitely upvote somebody? I get a lot of information from there, but I'm used to questioning things every day, so it doesn't feel so scary to me.
Glad the @rww account is calling you out. Apparently we aren't all opposed to some fun

Let me just say that this is nothing new to Computers, PS3, Xbox360, Laptops, Slates or even netbooks. Downloading movies is nothing new. Even from Netflicks. But on these devices at least I can put them on an SD and play them on other devices, including my HDTV!
If you have FLASH 10.1 on all of these devices including Cell phones soon, you can even watch full length movies on YouTube and w/ GPU acceleration they play smooth as glass in 1080p. Whereas HTML5 isn't even going to be a final standard till 2010. Meanwhile all of these other portable devices at least have user replaceable batteries, SD Flash, Java, full javascript, and with FLASH 10.1 the full experience of the web in a fully multitasking environment!
So in this case with Google Voice I can make free calls w/ one lifetime telephone number, answerable on at any of my other numbers. I can also watch internet television. What are you people w/ iPad's going to do for the Rose Bowl or Super Bowl? How will you watch the next Olympics or keep up to date via video on any of the major news site when near all of them run on some kind of Silverlight, Flash or video format the iPlatform can't play and will never play?
I'm just saying that to me it is still a Prison Walled DRM'd to death device and in case you didn't know, DRM stands for DIGITAL RECTAL MANIPULATION. Sorry but I'm not so sure I want Apple dictating what I can and can't do with my own device!
On top of that, what are you all going to do if the ITC decides to not only hear Elan's complaint, but bans the sale of all of these Apple DRM'd iPlatformed devices?
Just saying….. now carry on!

On a very related note, check out how the Apple App Store for the iPhone (not iPad) is already listing the Netflix app:

Oh the irony. This story just broke today about the NY Times getting fooled while the new media which you derided wasn't fooled.
