Coral twist front sandals from Dorothy Perkins
2008-05-01 12:35:00 Coral twist front sandals from Dorothy Perkins On my screen, these Dorothy Perkins sandals look more of a dusky pink than a "coral", but let's not quibble about colour when there are shoes to be looked at! These also come in silver and black, and at £40 are slightly more expensive than Dorothy Perkins' usual fare - probably because they're 100% leather. They're also a little more interesting than most t-bar sandals, with that twisted front and slightly chunky heel helping to make them look like they'd be comfortable enough to wear or day.

Jam Master Jay Murder Twist: 'Person Of Interest' In Investigation Sentence
2008-04-25 18:20:00 Judge declines to consider Ronald 'Tinard' Washington's alleged involvement in murder.By Rahman Dukes and Bernard Lumpkin Jam Master Jay Photo: Glen E. Friedman (Burning Flags Press) BROOKLYN, New York — The Jam Master Jay murder investigation took another turn Wednesday when Ronald "Tinard" Washington, who has been implicated by two unnamed witnesses in Jay's murder, was sentenced in federal court to 17 years in prison and three years' supervised release. The sentencing follows the defendant's conviction last year on a series of robbery charges dating back to 2002. Prosecutor Sean Haran argued for a stronger sentence for Washington "due to the defendant's involvement in two separate murders," presumably referring to the murders of Jay and Tupac Shakur's bodyguard Randy "Stretch" Walker, but Federal Judge Nina Gershon declined to consider the murders in her decision. "If it was such an overwhelming case, someone would have prosecuted him, instead of hanging ...

Use The Force or Let’s Twist Again….Force Sensative UMPC
2008-04-21 12:52:00 Craving a bit deeper, more meaningful interaction action with your touchscreen gadget, like maybe stretching or squeezing it? Do you already think this touch-screen haptic feedback is getting a little old-hat by itself? Well, it seems that Microsoft thinks so. Their researchers have come up with a prototype of force-sensing cleverness that’ll let you apply different kinds of force to a device, like twisting or bending, to do stuff like flip through document pages or swing through applications. They’ve modded a Samsung UMPC and slapped on four sensors that detect how you’re trying to manipulate it, so it doesn’t have to actually be flexible. The researchers think the tech will complement—not replace mind you—touchscreens, making devices more active and engaging, not to mention smaller, since space-wasting buttons will be unnecessary - AWwwwwwwwwwwwww……-…..poor buttons!! But lets face it - the Japanese love their retro gaming controll...

Lexitron = New Text-Twist Like Game for iPhone
2008-04-19 09:23:00 Lexitron is a brilliant new word-making game for the iPhone, that’s a lot like Text Twist. I’ve always been a big fan of Text Twist, and I am thoroughly enjoying Lexitron since installing it earlier tonight - in fact, I’ve been playing it most of the night while watching less-than-mesmerizing TV shows. Lexitron uses pretty much the same game concept as Text Twist - with the idea being to make as many words as possible with the 6 letters you’re given within the allowed time - and needing to get at least one six-letter word in order to advance to the next level. read it here justanotheriphoneblog.com

Great Invention Idea? A New Twist on Skating and Water-Sking
2008-04-18 23:33:00 The advancements of the last thirty years have raised the invention stakes for everyone. What's wrong with that, you ask? Nothing, except that this often results in the less creative among us churning out mediocre or bad ideas when they could be doing something much more productive, like removing shopping carts from the parking lot at a local Wal-Mart! In my opinion, the following two patented inventions illustrate this point exactly.

How to Make a French Twist (Instructions)
2008-04-18 16:30:00 Step 1:Take your hair and bring it up to make a pony tail. This is a crucial step. You can fix the pony tail with a twistii or hair elastic.

Pin hair starting from the bottom, hiding those pins inward where you don't see them.Step 4: Pinch the roll in the middle and open it up just enough to sneak the ends inside. Or you can leave the ends loose and arrange them up your head.Step 5: Take hair pins or a hair comb and slide in the upper section, grabbing just a bit of hair in the twist and sliding it in and under, into the roll. Do the same for the lower section.Step 6: Once you have your French Twist in place, you can add sticks into the hair. Insert the stick in the ledge you've just created.

DaughterGate Takes a Twist (Updated)
2008-04-17 16:49:00 The Associated Press' Vicki Smith talked to another graduate of WVU's EMBA program who "says that just like the daughter of Gov. Joe Manchin, she was given flexibility to complete course work outside the classroom ." (See update below)Sherry Korczynski, a recent hire at Mylan where Heather Bresch is COO, said that then-director Paul Speaker was "flexible and accommodating in helping her complete her required credits with 'independent study,' eager to make what was then a fledgling program appear successful," the article said.Speaker had earlier told AP that "he could not recall ever allowing outside work to replace classroom work 'in the history of the EMBA program.'" Korczynski told AP that his comment "was in complete contrast with the arrangements he made for me... He allowed me great flexibility and leniency in completing the requirements."Korczynski also said that she spoke Wednesday to the investigative panel assigned to review the awarding of Bresch's EMBA.

Tanzania Circumcision Twist-Males The Target!
2008-04-14 09:00:00 A common issue confronting people in Africa is the prevalence of forced female circumcision, but in the Meru district of Tanzania, the focus of circumcision is towards males. Gangs oftribesmen who insist all males must be circumcised according to their tribal traditions are invading the homes of males, breaking down doors, and forcing men to undergo the process in front of their families.”They(crusaders)-move in gangs of between 20 nd 50 men, yu either hve to answer the door or they simply break in, “said one of the victims. “Once inside, they order you to take off your pants, or stick out your organ, not caring if there were women or children around.” Forced “Tohara” is regarded as a rite of passge that all males must experience according to tribal puritans. A particular problem that has arisen is that many educated males who teach in schools are not circumcised. This has resulted in teachers fearing to go to school for fear the gangs will assua...

Space Invaders Get Even on Wii! A fantastic twist on old gameplay
2008-04-11 01:36:00 Taito Japan unveiled Space Invaders Get Even for the Nintendo Wii. In a twist on the classic arcade gameplay, this time around the Space Invaders are planning a counterattack and it?s up to you to make sure they ?Get Even? with the humans that have been shooting them down for the past 30 years! The player controls a UFO with the Wii Remote and Nunchuk, which guides 300 ?Space Invaders? to execute its every command. The analogue stick on the Nunchuk attachment is used to direct the UFO, while the Wii Remote will be used to move around a total of 300 ?8-BIT? Invaders. It?s unclear what abilities each set of ?Space Invader? aliens will have, but the first set of screenshots at Gamewatch show different sets dispersing to swarm targets, as well as forming a large, vertical wall as you?re used to seeing them attack in. Each stage consists out of three areas like an armored city, seaside city and jungle zone. The game is set for release in Japan sometime in 2008. ? Tip via ICgamers

I think I can beat them all up, and I 'm currently blaring Kylie Minogue. Sources say that it's a male character, and he will come out in the April 21 episode. Wasn't the main ho's little brother gay? Are they just confirming that? Christ, why do I care? It's Gossip Girl! It's not like it's as important as Y&R!
