SDV Fail (Sorta)
My recently installed SDV tuning adapter failed me tonight during UH’s win over Fresno State in men’s hoops. The cable signal just stopped, and I wasn’t receiving all the stations. Weirdly enough, the freebie HD channels were there (1003, 1006, 1007, etc) but nothing else. After being on hold with Oceanic for a long time, the rep told me to disconnect and reconnect the USB cable.
That did the trick. Didn’t have to power cycle the actual unit. Pretty random and strange “outage” that only affected some stations. At least the Rainbows won though I missed most of the game.
Twilight’s New Moon Logo
Even though the second movie installment of the Twilight saga is still months away, New Moon has officially launched its new logo. Get ready for a bunch of stuff adorned with this.
Made with Real Sugar
Starting in April, keep an eye out for new variations of Pepsi and Mountain Dew. Instead of using High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS), there will be a line of Pepsi and Mountain Dew made with real sugar. These pure sugar drinks will be tagged “Throwback” and have a different label.
These Throwbacks will only be available during a very limited time so you might have to load up if the taste is that much better.

GoGirl Lets Women Pee Standing Up
How about this for gender equality? GoGirl has introduced a female urination device (FUD) which allows them to pee while standing up. Not quite a urinal for guys, but this silicone product is portable and even reusable after cleaning.
Here’s how GoGirl is described on Twitter:
Simply put, GoGirl is the way to stand up to disgusting or non-existent bathrooms. It’s a female urination device which allows women to pee standing up. When could you have used one?
Who’s getting a GoGirl?
And keeping with the social networking movement, you can also find GoGirl on Facebook, Twitter, and Flickr.
Kanye West’s Secret to Success
Kanye West continues to produce great music infused with creativity. But behind this musical creativity is Kanye’s drive for greatness fueled by his addiction to sex!? Yep, according to Mr. West himself, his sexual addiction funneled into other endeavors is key to his success.
So those looking to leave their mark on the world, you may want to heed Kanye’s advice.
Introducing Starbucks VIA
Starbucks has officially launched its new instant coffee line called the VIA Ready Brew. You know the drill – just add hot water, and you’re ready to go. But Starbucks claims that VIA actually resembles coffee.
Don’t believe the caffeinated hype? Try VIA yourself (if you hurry), and get a free sample mailed to you by filling out this form. Otherwise, VIA costs $3 for a pack of 3 or $10 for a 12 pack.
And follow @Starbucks on Twitter for lots of updates. I asked if VIA was available in Hawaii yet, but not until later this year. 🙁
How Was Your Valentine’s Day?
How did your Valentine’s Day go? Not good? Did you try all four ways of expressing your love? Yes, the classic four ways of saying “I love you” – buying expensive diamonds, going on a tropical vacation, carving your initials in a tree, and the newest way, buying a Cisco ASR 9000 router! Yes, getting your sweetheart the $250,000 ASR 9000 is THE cutting edge way of professing your undying love.
Doesn’t your heart flutter hearing about transferring 6.4 terabits per second, 400Gbps per slot, and 6x mobile backhaul capacity?! Who knew Cisco held the key to every woman’s heart?
Shaq Jamming with the Jabbawockees
NBA big man Shaquille O’Neal and me are baller brothers separated at birth. Yeah, right (but our birthdays are almost the same). Anyways, before the 2009 NBA All Star Game even began, Shaq started off the All Star intros proper jamming with the Jabbawockees.
Even after all these years banging in the NBA, I can’t believe a guy of his size (and age) can move like that.
