Pink Pantera Packs a Punch

Search Engine Punch Up- Optimisers Book Ringside Seats
2009-05-22 13:53:00 We're always looking at "who" is using "what" to search- turns out that Google is still the favourite, but MS really want a sizable piece of the action, so much so that they're on a PR tip using words like "reimagine" to describe what they want to do with their Live search. Apparently the deal is that MS want their engine to show fewer, more relevant results- which is nice. They've had a stab at doing something with Kumo, but there's no hands-on action yet so who knows what the new Live will be like. Much of the commentary is about branding and feel, so I can't help thinking that MS are going to ride the coat-tails of their tried-and-tested-don't-rock-the--boat approach and provide a good looking set of tweaks that MIGHT be better than the current Live. It might even offer the functionality and depth of Google, but then Google aren't taking it easy either. To extend the usage of their products, and their engine they're punting Chrome on TV in the US. Not only a...

The Rum Punch Review: "Chronicles Of The Lensman, Vol. 1" (Part 3)
2009-05-06 17:30:00 Part one of this review is here.Part Two is here. Confused about what a "Rum Punch Review" is? Click here.This is the longest book review ever, I bet, by now.Part of the problem is that I read slowly, and I also get distracted by other things, like trying recently to begin converting all the videos I have of the kids into a DVD with music and such, an endeavor that for various reasons (reasons which are completely unrelated to software pirating) required me to take my office laptop home briefly and then bring it back to work.I read slowly because I only get a chance to read late at night, which works well for pulpy serials like this, but also which means that I have to repeatedly renew the book from the library, too, and we all know my troubles with them (they're still claiming that I haven't returned Baby Galileo even though I paid the fine for it), which then makes me nervous.But it's worth all the trouble, because Chronicles of the Lensman Vol. 1 is good. So good that for a ...
The Rum Punch Review: "Chronicles of The Lensmen, Vol. 1" (Part 2)
2009-04-24 17:18:00 Part one of this review is here.Confused about what a "Rum Punch Review" is? Click here.I was this close to giving up on the Lensmen book.It'd been sitting on my nightstand, unread, since I posted the first part of its review, and I hadn't been all that thrilled about picking it up and keeping going. I had left off at the part where the entire history of everything in the universe had gotten up to Atlantis and its destruction (Not a spoiler, given that the chapter is called The Fall of Atlantis and begins with the Eddorians deciding to destroy it and the Arisians letting it be destroyed...) and the book just really hadn't caught fire in me yet.So on Sunday, Sweetie asked if we could go over to the bookstore and pick up some new books. "Sure," I agreed, and said "I might return that Lensman book and pick up something at the store to read."As I discussed in part 1 of the review, that's a step I hate to take, but then again, I hate to waste my time reading a book that I'm not cr...

The Rum Punch Review: "Chronicles Of The Lensman, Vol. 1" (Part 1)
2009-04-09 15:28:00 Confused about what a Rum Punch Review is? Find out here.Man, old-fashioned science fiction stories are talky.Maybe it's because they didn't have all that much science back in the really olden days (before 2002) that characters in sci-fi books spent so much time talking and not doing things. As a guy raised on modern science fiction -- wisecracking smugglers, laser pistols, and muddled endings to otherwise good television shows -- I'm not used to all that talking, although reading every Robert Heinlein novel he ever wrote prepared me for it, a bit.I had actually heard of the Lens and the Lensmen and, vaguely, E.E. Smith (the guy who wrote the Lensmen stories) before they were re-brought to my attention by a Best of Everything reader. I first heard of the Lens in the book The Number of The Beast by Robert Heinlein, another very-talky (but very good) sci-fi book that follows the adventures of four people -- two married couples -- as they cruise through the multiverse on the run ...
The Rum Punch Review ("The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox,", Part 2).
2009-03-27 16:43:00 Read Part 1 of this Review Here.I finished The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox over a week ago, but am only now just getting around to posting the second half of the Rum Punch Review. I could say that I deliberately took the time to think about it, let it settle in, let the book digest a little, like I do now with dinner (Burritos) instead of just going straight to the dessert (2 cheeseburgers.)Or I could say that I was distracted by coming up with the 5 Traits Most Commonly Seen In Waukesha County, Wisconsin, which is what I did this morning while waiting for a court hearing to begin. I was standing by the Courthouse entrance, waiting for my client, and had plenty of time to observe people and determine the 5 Traits, and also to determine that one sheriff's deputy was having a really bad day and also that he lied to the maintenance guy.The deputy came in, hurriedly, and then knocked the top of a little pole that had an "Exit" sign on, and then swore (under his breath) and then shoo...
The Rum Punch Review ("The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox," Part 1)
2009-03-06 16:22:00 Here are some things I've recommended to people this week:1. I recommended to a client that we make a settlement offer.2. I recommended that The Boy read Soon I Will Be Invincible.3. I recommended that Sweetie and I see Watchmen tonight on an Imax screen, because I've never seen an Imax movie, and4. I recommended that a co-worker put some "cheese sauce" on her breakfast sandwich, which was toast and cream cheese and alfalfa sprouts.To that, I will now add:5. I recommend people read The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox, but6. I recommend they not think it's gothic at all, or not much.One of the things that lured me into reading The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox, by Maggie O'Farrell, was that either the back cover, or maybe a review of the book, said something about it being gothic. Being a literary guy and all, I didn't take that to mean gothic the way Twilight fans think of it; instead, I took it to mean gothic in the Disquiet, Edgar-Allen-Poe-y manner.[THEMATIC SPOILER ALER...

ESRB Slips Details On Punch-Out Wii
2009-02-23 06:50:00 Ohh, ESRB, what a fine source of information you've become since you started running summaries for the games you rate. Punch Out Wii details leak. In this case, it means a nice long summary description of Punch-Out!! is now online, well ahead of any significant Nintendo advertising.While players can use standard boxing moves (jabs, hooks, uppercuts), most fights are performed in a comical fashion with an assortment of dizzy stars, cartoony sound effects, and slapstick signature moves (e.g., growling, dropping shorts, conking oneself on the head, twirling, etc.). Boxers' faces show lumps and bruises after taking damage, and some knockouts are depicted in slow motion as players are sent flying across the canvass. One character flexes his pectoral and glute muscles prior to a fight, while another boxer belches during a cutscene.There are cutscenes! With belching! Game of the Year 2009, people!

The Rum Punch Review (Jimmy Corrigan, Part 2)
2009-02-18 16:37:00 The Rum Punch Review is a holistic, ongoing book review. This is part 2 of the review of Jimmy Corrigan by Chris Ware. Part 1 of this review can be found here.I returned Jimmy Corrigan to the library this past Saturday. I had finished it several days before, but was both unwilling to give it back right away and a little lazy. Plus, the library has weird hours. It's open all day, every day, during business hours, and closes at nine a lot of week nights. But it closes at 6 on Fridays, and is open, according to my library card, from 9-5 on Saturdays, and from 1-5 on Sundays. But it's open on Sundays only during the school year.I don't get any of that. Why is the library open at 9 a.m. on weekdays? Wouldn't the use of the library on a weekday be very low, because many people are at jobs and in school? And why does the library close early on Fridays and Saturdays, and sometimes not open on Sundays, when people aren't working and would presumably be more likely to visit the...
The Rum Punch Review (Jimmy Corrigan, Part 1)
2009-02-11 17:12:00 Starting today, I'm getting into the book reviewing business. But not the book reviewing business the way most people think of it. I'm not going to simply read a book and then say I liked it or didn't like it and spend a few paragraphs on it.Instead, I am going to do a holistic book review. I'm going to review a book from the moment I first heard of it through picking it up through reading it through those last few moments when you close the book cover, set it on your chest, and ponder it.Here's why I'm going to do it that way: Some days, I don't like anything. Some days, I put on iPod on shuffle on the way home and click through song after song after song without ever settling on one, doing that until I get disgusted and turn off the iPod and turn on talk radio so that I can listen to callers say things that I will immediately assume are fake or exaggerated.If I were to review a book on those days, I'd hate it, no matter what the merits of the book might be.Other days,...

Yingli Green (YGE): 'One-two punch'

Packing a punch
2008-05-29 12:56:00 Former Green Bay Packer Vai Sikahema will be donning a pair of boxing gloves in a celebrity boxing match against former baseball star Jose Canseco.Sikahema, who used to be a boxer growing up, is currently the sports director/anchor for NBC 10 News in Philadelphia where he also played football.He'll be taking on Canseco because, well, baseball's bad boy needs the money."Canseco, to be sure, looks the part of someone most would-be opponents might want to avoid," writes Bernard Fernandez of the Philadelphia Daily News. "At 6-4 and 245 pounds, he's only 5 pounds above his 1988 playing weight. He still has guns for forearms, too, although he insists he's off the juice. He credits his Adonis physique to 20-plus years in martial arts, during which he claims to have earned black belts in kung-fu, taekwondo and Muay Thai."Sikahema, meanwhile, is most remembered for shadow boxing the goal post after one of his punt return touchdowns while playing with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Movie Review: ‘The Sensei’ Delivers a Wake-Up Punch Against Hate
2008-05-23 04:48:00 By Jay FerminHollywood: Fil-Am Director Diana Lee Inosanto had a very important message that need to be expressed strongly in today’s postmodern world when we caught up with her. She was at the red-carpet opening of the 24th Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival that ran May 1-8, 2008 at the Directors Guild of America (DGA). The message has faced a lot of challenges and took two years to complete. D. Lee Inosanto, daughter of martial artist Dan Inosanto (taking the namesake of her honorary uncle, the legendary Bruce Lee) is herself a martial arts practitioner together with her husband.The message was her directorial debut film ‘The Sensei’ which premiered at the Film fest and what Education Director (Matthew Shepard Foundation) Thomas Howard Jr. has labeled “A film that will change hearts and minds and save lives.” D.Lee Inosanto confides that she was compelled to make the film years ago after the senseless murder of Matthew Shepard in Wyoming in 1998.

Guy Carbonneau defense of Kostopoulos punch may turn series nasty in hurry
2008-04-28 15:14:00 It may not be the Hatfields and McCoys - at least not yet - but let's just say there is no love lost in this edgy little playoff tussle between the Montreal Canadiens and Philadelphia Flyers.And if you were looking for someone to throw down the gauntlet to turn up the heat a few more degrees, consider it done.As if the Flyers needed anything else to pin to their bulletin board, Guy Carbonneau went public condoning the sucker punch/facewash/cheap shot - call it what you will-that Tom Kostopoulos administered on Kimmo Timonen moments after the Flyers guaranteed they would be getting out of Montreal with a split Saturday night.''I think he deserved it,'' Carbonneau told reporters. ''That's why they didn't call any (major) penalties on it.''''A lot of things happened during the course of the game. There's one team that shouldn't talk. They had the most suspensions in the league."A-ha. So Carbonneau has noticed the body count the Flyers have racked up this season. Not...

Warning Christians at worship: punch up in Church of the Holy Sepulchre
2008-04-21 16:50:00 Jerusalem's Church of the Holy Sepulchre turned into the equivalent of a pub free-for-all recently, with Greek and Armenian worshipers trading punches. Israeli police waded in to try and break up the warring factions.The fracas was set off when Armenian worshipers took it upon themselves to throw a Greek Orthodox priest out of the church.Palm fronds, traditionally used to celebrate the return of Jesus to the Holy City before he was crucified, were employed as weapons to beat the police officers.The Church of the Holy Sepulchre is shared by various branches of Christianity, each of which jealously guards its turf. Ironically two Muslim families and their predecessors have long served as 'keepers of the gates' ... kind of like a neutral ref in a tense stand-off between competing factions.It is ironical in the extreme to learn that followers of "the prince of peace" beat each other up on the very site where many Christians believe Jesus was crucified and buried.Israeli police offer...
