palit-7300GT-sonic.jpgIts been months since I had my PC with a video card. I got my old GeForce 7300 GT removed and placed on a PC without a video card. I tried to tweak the PC and ended up messing its video capabilities. So, since my PC works without a card, I did a generous donation and give away my only graphics card. Now, imagine me with my PC without a video card. Finally, after 6 months, I was able to buy the Palit GeForce 7300 GT Sonic video card. It's actually an old card considering I was once using 7300 GT but I'm out of budget and I really need a video card. GeForce 7300 GT Sonic still is using Direct X 9c shader, so no Windows Vista games for me since Windows Vista is using the new Direct X 10, but I don't like Windows Vista yet so i guess its ok for now. Maybe next year I'll upgrade my OS then I'll upgrade my video card. Anyway, GeForce 7300 GT Sonic is the overclocked version of the GeForce 7300 GT Card its a bit faster with a core speed up to 500MHz and memory speed up to 1000MHz at 256MB. The GeForce 7300 GT Sonic comes equipped with DDR3 instead of the DDR2 from the 7300 GT version. All the speed I need to max out the graphics quality of the games I play right now. Not really bad for a $50 video card, I wish I had some more and I could have bought the GeForce 8 series video card.

cc3tw-cover.jpgI reinstalled the game Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars and started playing it the whole day. I wasn't able to finish playing the game before because of the video card experiment I did. So, this time I'm going to finish the game with maximum graphics quality. I'm now playing the Normal mode but after i finish this I'll start again with the hard mode. mammothtank.jpgI just love the Mammoth Tank with its Rail Gun Upgrade its almost unstoppable in the battle field. With this tank, you only need about 3 or 4 to finish a mission. Its very powerful and its huge, just don't get hit by an EMP or they just be sitting ducks. I also like the dig skill for the Rifflemen but it costs 300 credits and the Shadow soldiers could easily kill them in one shot even if their rank is already star.


GDI-lt-Kirce-James.jpgEvery time I get to the mission briefing, I have noticed that GDI Lt. Kirce James is so familar to me. I tried replaying the mission briefing just to recall her. Then i realized she was Jennifer Morrison or Doctor Allison Cameron from the TV series House. Why didn't I noticed her before, I was really surprised to see her doing the mission briefing. Well, she didn't have that military look but I like her being a doctor.

I'm not really a fan but i hear her songs very often. She sang the song So Slow, didn't know the lyrics but I'm placing them in the extended link. She's got a lovely voice, and i like it. She sang three beautiful songs and was accompanied by her husband with a nice guitar. She's known as Jinky Vidal but my friend told me her name was Jennifer Vidal and now its Jennifer Suzara from her husbands surname Tat Suzara. I heard Jinky went Solo from her group Freestyle and released a couple of solo albums. I'm writing like i'm in showbiz now, anyway, here are some pictures for you to get envy.

GPS - Know Your Exact Position Anywhere In The World
By: Sharon Albright
GPS [global positioning system] is a worldwide radio-navigation system formed from the constellation of 24 satellites and their ground stations. It is a system mainly used to locate the user's position at a time. Although GPS was originally intended for military applications, but now it is mainly used in marine, location-based services and terrestrial navigation. GPS can work for 24 hours in any type of weather condition, irrespective of sun and rain. Working of GPS system GPS works in a wonderful way. The GPS satellite circles the earth twice a day in a precise orbit and transmits signal information to earth. GPS receivers take into this information and use "triangulation method" to calculate the user's exact location. The meaning of "triangulation" is receiving radio signals from a distance. Along with knowing the distance, you also need to know exactly the position of the satellites in space. This is done with the help of high orbits and carefully monitoring the instruments for locating the satellites. Finally you also need to correct any type of delays that the signal can experience as it has to travel for a long distance through the atmosphere.

What color is an octopus? I really do not know the right answer to this question. The octopus skin contains chromatophore cells which allows them to mimic almost anything in the coral reef. There skin contains the color black, brown, red, orange and yellow, combining these hues gives an infinite pattern to match just any object under the sea.

So, what color is an octopus again?

So says Jamie Lee Curtis, according to this celebrity plastic surgery Blog, Jamie's no longer doing any changes whatsoever on her body. She's comfy as she is.

I go with Jamie, she's beautiful without plastic surgery. Besides, anybody who overdoes it might end up looking like Michael J.

I believe that everyone who was exposed to television and music know the king of pop, Michael Jackson. In this featured article, Jackson's is chronologically traced from his humble beginnings to his current disturbing appearance.

His metamorphosis is mainly attributed to plastic surgery. If you wish to learn more about plastic surgery, check out this plastic surgery blog. Sad as it may seem, Michael's appearance is simply a reflection of how he lived his life, weird and disturbing.
