The Winner of the SuperBowl Sunday Giveaway Is…

, ,

And by random drawing, the winner of the Pulpconnection SuperBowl Sunday Giveaway is the Tabasco Man.

How was the Tabasco Man picked? Each person with a Listmania nomination got one “ticket” represented by a song in the Songs for SuperBowl XLI iMix. If you had nominations in both Listmanias, you got two songs listed (max of one nomination per Listmania). The nominations from me and Mr. 939 did not count. I hit the random play button in iTunes, and We Will Rock You started playing. Since that was nominated by the Tabasco Man, he’s the winner!

Congratulations on winning the exclusive Pulpconnection-personalized Club 939 calendar and the iMix of the Songs for SuperBowl XLI!

Thanks to everyone who participated. Stay tuned to Pulpconnection.net for future events!

Pau Listmania: The Fresh and Hot of Hawaii

The listmania looking for the freshest and hottest faces of Hawaii is over. Thanks for everyone’s contributions.

Here is our final list:

An interesting collection… a few models, a politician, a clubber, a club owner, with a writer and an athlete getting top dibs.

Apple Store at Kahala Almost Ready

The opening of the second Apple Store in Hawaii is coming up “in the next few weeks” according to this Honolulu Advertiser article. The work at the new Kahala Mall location is wrapping up with deliveries inbound so it’s a matter of time. Apple is hiring if you’re interested.

Should I wait in line like I did for the opening of the first Apple Store at Ala Moana? Not sure. Scored a free Apple t-shirt but that was a long wait and without a little one…

Overdose of New Music

,

Over the past week, I picked up quite a lot of music. Here’s a glimpse.

Norah Jones • Not Too Late
That voice. Just listen to the ease and calm of that voice of Norah Jones. For Hawaii residents, look out at that dismal, blustery weather, brew up the good stuff, play the tracks from Not Too Late, and be glad you’re indoors.

No wonder this CD is the best seller for on-line retailers like Amazon and the iTunes Store. I give it 4 out of 5 stars.

2007 Grammy Nominees
A compliation of solid picks. Not necessarily the popular mainstream stuff you hear on the radio, but a good mix of music. And you can’t beat the $9.99 price tag for 23 tracks.

I give it 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Sarah Brightman • Diva: The Singles Collection
A collection of her popular hits. Not quite what I was looking for though. I prefer her upbeat and techno style like with Harem or Free.

Give it 3 out of 5 stars.

Ultra Dance, Vol. 8
Disappointing. I didn’t like this collection. The Ultra series has been good to me before so I figured this one would be good too. Some gems in the 2 CD set but overall, I didn’t like the syncopating style of the music.

I’d recommend Thrivemix, Vol. 1: Mixed by Mike Rizzo and St. John or Out Anthems instead. Give it 2 out of 5 stars.

Windward Mall Has a Pulse

,

Beep… beep… beep. Windward Mall actually has a pulse and is not dead yet. Massive renovations were planned and are almost complete giving this deathtrap a new chance at life.

Notable new additions include d.e.m.o., Lids, Sanrio, Journeys, Cinnamon Girl, and Clearwire. Don’t forget Ruby Tuesdays is already there, Farrell’s is open for business, and IHOP opens next week.

The Mall is getting another boost with the coming of a full sized Borders featuring a Starbucks cafe. At last, the only mall in Hawaii without a Starbucks is joining the caffeine addicted.

Harry Potter Nakid!

In a move to shake up his image, Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe strips his wizard cloak for the London-based play called Equus. Here’s a promotional picture from Equus showing Daniel cavorting with Gandalf’s stud, Shadowfax.

With the Harry Potter series headed towards its final installment with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the end of the movie series is obviously in sight. I guess Daniel wants to show off his repertoire for future acting roles.

Judging by the mature theme of this play, Daniel should remake some of his previous works. You know stuff like Harry’s Putter in the Chamber of Secrets and Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Ass-KABAAM!!
