Looks like Mars Phoenix (or Mars Phoenix's ghost) will have to wait another two years for a new companion—the Mars Science Laboratory, originally planned for a launch next year, has been delayed until 2011. It goes to show that the economy's bad in space, too. But aside from budgetary overages, the MSL is one of the most advanced crafts ever to shoot for the red planet. It will be able to redirect its course late into the landing phase, and will actually touch down on a tether lowered from a hovering descent stage. On board will be the biggest science...
Remember about a year ago, when it seemed that Nicole Kidman was pregnant with a ghost bump for somewhere around 13 to 15 months? Well, when we heard she "delivered" the "baby", it's safe to say we were skeptical. But if these photos are to be believed, Nicole Kidman really and truly had a baby! A little girl named Sunday Rose. Aww. Here's Nicole struggling through layers of face poison to kiss her child: Is it sad to say she has more wrinkles than her mother? Not only isn't it sad, it's joyous. It goes without saying, Team Suri 4VR....
We’ve made it a sort of hobby to post our Comcast experiences here at CG, more often than not because they’ve been terribletastic and we needed to be angry publicly for our own satisfaction. This time however it’s quite a different case so read on if you’d like to hear that rarest of tales: a tale of good customer service. Last night I was doing some heavy downloading and uploading (as one does) and after about midnight the whole thing cut out completely. I tried the usual remedies and eventually went to bed thinking they were finally onto me,...
Link: http://www.askmen.com/celebs/entertai... Equally eerie as it is hilarious (ok, it's not that eerie), an old story details Anna Nicole Smith's claim that a ghost would repeatedly “climb up [her] leg,” and they'd have “amazing” sex. Initially, she thought she was having sex with her boyfriend until she realized it was a ghost. Unless her boyfriend had a thing for white burkas. (Eternal thanks to Gabe!)

Troubleshooting a dead motherboard can be enough of a pain in the backside all on its own, but once you've reached the conclusion that your board has given up the ghost, the prospect of a lengthy wait for a replacement only adds insult to injury. Asus seeks to alleviate this frustration with its new Asus Premium Service (APS) program, which offers eligible motherboard owners the option of having a replacement board cross-shipped free of charge."ASUS offers today’s discerning motherboard customer the widest range of choice for enthusiast platforms,” said Sales Director Timothy Lin of ASUS North America. “By combining the...
Filed under: Industry, Grey's Anatomy, Casting, Reality-FreeApparently ABC is weirded out by Izzie having sex with a ghost too. At the very least, they certainly are curious. According to EW, the alphabet network has started testing audiences with a potential Grey's Anatomy love story between Izzie and the very, very, very not alive Denny Duquette. Now I know focus groups aren't cheap and since it's Thanksgiving Day, I'm in a very giving mood. So if anyone from ABC is reading this - let me save you some money: This story BLOWS.Continue reading ABC to focus group: you cool with Izzie...
BlahblahFish takes your English text and translates it into another language, then translates it back into English. The results can be pretty strange. I used the phrase “The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Japanese: It heats heart truly and [re] physical weakness does. Italian: The spirit is arranged, but the meat is weak person. Greek: The spirit is willing, but the flesh is impossible. Spanish: The alcohol is prepared, but the meat is weak. Korean: The spirit puts out the flag and does, the flesh omits but. Chinese: Having more desire than energy. Croatian: sprite had like...
Adobe Photoshop is probably one of the most popular graphic editing program used extensively. There is one simple reason for that.

If you need to design an impressive layout, you will sure use Photoshop to do the design and slice it into XHTML later. This article provides 13 Advanced Adobe Photoshop tutorials which can...
