Jenny’s TV Guide: Friday August 8
2008-08-08 22:18:00 Friday marks the four hour “premiere” for the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, starting at 8/7c. Tonight is all about the opening ceremonies in Beijing. Starting with the Opening Ceremonies from Beijing’s National Stadium, NBC and its various platforms will offer more than 3,600 hours of events such as swimming, gymnastics and beach volleyball, including more than 2,200 hours on NBCOlympics.com, thus giving viewers the chance to watch any and every Olympic event. One would think it should, considering that averages out to about 212 hours per day. Better warm up the DVR. I will probably not try and keep up with posting every bit of Olympic dates/times. I would go bananas. If you have something specific you’d like to know and don’t want to look it up, let me know and I can find out. Otherwise, I’ll stick to what is airing in primetime, NOT what is being shown live and elsewhere. (more…)

Beijing 2008 Olympics - Why August 8, 2008?
2007-08-31 22:10:00 Not a lot of people ever thought about this but there is a very neat significance why the Chinese chose August 8, 2008 to start next year's Beijing 2008 Olympic games. The number 8 appears three times in the date 8-8-2008, is considered very lucky in Chinese culture & traditions. In China, some people have to pay some certain dough in order to have the number 8 in their phone numbers, addresses, car plates & so on. The number 8 is significant in China because it's pronunciation in Cantonese is very similar to "make money".The number 8 written in ChineseThe Chinese, probably more than anybody else, are betting on hauling the most gold medals next year especially since they will be the host country. Funny as it seems, even with our high-tech society, one of the world's economic & military super powers still rely on superstitions to bring them luck.Here are some good reads about the Chinese & the number 8:The Number Eight And The ChineseIn Chinese communities around the worl...

Fuego Volcano Erupts in Guatemala August 8, 2007
2007-08-09 22:32:00 Fuego Volcano erupted yesterday in Guatemala.The sight of it was life changing. Many people were out in the streets and on the roads looking, taking shots, and generally staring at a once-in-a-lifetime sight. One Guatemalan gentleman in his 60's told me he had never seen this kind of activity in his whole life. He was thrilled to be able to witness it.The sound of it will remain with me for a long time. It was like grumpy thunder that just never stopped grumbling. Deep throated roaring that you could hear miles away.Clouds moved in as evening wore on, obscuring the lava flows and eventually the cone. I haven't even seen anything like this in movies with all the whoop-dee-doo special effects man has created to create something astounding. Maybe there is a lesson to be learnt here. Mother Nature has all the special effects up her sleeve that she can pull out whenever she wants. Beats paying the prices at the theatres.Today Fuego looks calm, though she is shrouded in clouds. Eve...

Online Dating Blog Carnival - August 8, 2007
2007-08-08 11:30:00 Welcome to the August 8, 2007 edition of online dating blog carnival. When I decided to experiment with the whole blog carnival thing last month, I wasn’t sure exactly what was going to happen. There didn’t seem to be much interest to begin with, making me think that maybe the whole thing was a waste of time. Luckily, after the rather modest beginning in July (thanks to all those that contributed!) it seems things are starting to pick up for this carnival. This month sees a broader range of topics covered with an interesting choice of topics. So here we go… Dating & relationship tips or advice Laura Young presents It’s Never the Answer Anyone Wants to Hear posted at Dragon Slayer, saying, “She was second and third guessing every step she was taking in her new relationship because she didn’t want to get burned yet again. “How do I control these thoughts?” she wondered, exasperated and desperately wanting to just “fig...

August 8 is Emancipation Day. But not everywhere.
2007-08-06 14:30:00 On January 1, 1863, the Emancipation Proclamation declared that all slaves held in locations in conflict with the United States were henceforth free. Black communities in Virginia, Georgia and North Carolina have observed Emancipation Day on that day ever since. Not so elsewhere in Appalachia.When Union soldiers took control of an area, they would, amongst other things, read the proclamation and enforce it. Because of this, various states, territories, and municipalities celebrate emancipation on the day when the law was enforced in their region. Tennessee and Kentucky, for example, have long informally recognized August 8 as the day. As early as 1875, the African American community in the vicinity of Greene County, TN had begun to hold annual celebrations on August 8th, known as the "Eighth of August Celebration" according to local accounts in The Greeneville American. Last April Tennessee governor Phil Bredesen went a step further and signed House Bill No. 207 into law, offici...
