Pac-Man 30th Anniversary

Pac-Man 30th Anniversary | Google Pac-Man
It's Pac-Man 30th Anniversary, and in honor of this timeless game which is now 30 years old, Google commissioned a special logo to appear on the main search page that inserts Google's name into the old maze-like playing field of Pac-Man. You can actually play Pac-Man on Google today, so check it out.

And here's a little about Pac-Man game from Wikipedia:
Pac-Man (パックマン Pakkuman?) is an arcade game developed by Namco and licensed for distribution in the U.S. by Midway, first released in Japan on May 22, 1980. Immensely popular in the United States from its original release to the present day, Pac-Man is universally considered as one of the classics of the medium, virtually synonymous with video games, and an icon of the 1980s popular culture. Upon its release, the game—and, subsequently, its derivatives—became a social phenomenon that sold a bevy of merchandise and also inspired, among other things, an animated television series and a top-ten hit single.

7 Year Old Single Ladies

7 Year Old Single Ladies. It's not only Greyson Michael Chance's Paparazzi that has become viral this week. Another performance video stirred so much controversy in the media. But unlike Greyson's video which earned him a massive popularity, this video of a group of girls called the 7 Year Old Single Ladies received quite the opposite.

The 7-year-old Single Ladies video was shot at last month’s World of Dance Competition, which features a troupe of elementary age girls dancing to the tune of Beyonce's hit "Single Ladies". There's nothing wrong with dancing Beyonce's Single Ladies, actually. But it would certainly be inappropriate and quite disturbing if the dance is performed by elementary girls while wearing burlesque-style outfits. See the picture below.
7 Year Old Single LadiesWell, there's a question, "Is America being over-sexed?" What do you think?

Here's a video clip of the performance of the 7 Year Old Single Ladies:

HTC EVO 4G - Sprint WiMAX HTC Supersonic

HTC EVO 4G - Sprint WiMAX HTC Supersonic
HTC EVO 4G as Engadget described it, is Sprint's Android-powered knight in superphone armor. Known by its codename, the Supersonic, this is the first 4G smartphone to launch in the United States using Sprint's WiMax network. The price nor the release date is not yet announced, but, according to Sprint, HTC EVO 4G is expected to be shipped this summer.

So, what's great about the HTC EVO 4G?

The phone's got a 480x800 4.3-inch WVGA display with a Snapdragon QSD8650 1GHz processor under the hood, a 1GB of built-in memory and 512MB of RAM storage. The battery is bigger than the HD2, and the camera is 8 megapixel with flash, that's capable of 720p video, and is augmented by a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera for good measure. The phone features HDMI out, 802.11b/g WiFi, and an 8GB microSD card. The real kicker is its support for WiMAX.

Take a look at some of the amazing features of Sprint's HTC EVO 4G below:

Brian Vickers | Brian Vickers not racing | Brian Vickers hospitalized
You have it. Brian Vickers' not racing this weekend. NASCAR driver Brian Vickers has been hospitalized since Wednesday night and will not be able to race this weekend at Dover International Speedway. Vickers is still in for further testing. The name of the hospital has not been revealed, as well as Vickers' medical condition still undisclosed. But fans of Vickers must not worry because a status update on Vickers' Facebook page said, "He is doing good and resting. He hopes to be back at it ASAP." According to Red Bull general manager Jay Frye, Vickers' illness is just a "minor setback."

In place of Vickers, Casey Mears will drive the No. 83 Toyota for Red Bull Racing. In a statement made by Vickers:
"It is unfortunate that I will not be able to participate in the Dover race. Casey is a good friend of mine, and I know he will do his best for the No. 83 team this weekend."
