Does Coke Give Disney Free Soda?

When Is It Okay to Hug Strangers and Go Nuts?

“Release the Kraken!â€
If not already in Urbandictionary.com, the phrase “release the Kraken!” from Clash of the Titans must be added. You shout this when someone poops in the pool and you need everyone to scatter and evacuate.
The Science of the World Cup Soccer Ball
The new soccer ball of the 2010 World Cup was created by Adidas with some serious science, technology, and engineering. Called the “Jabulani,” this ball is supposedly the “roundest and most accurate ball ever played.”
Read this Popular Science article about the technology built into the Jabulani. And if you want to marvel and celebrate this technology yourself, you can own your own Jabulani.
I Want to Smell Like Twilight!
Twilight’s Eclipse is soon, very soon, and there’s no better way to watch this movie than smelling like its namesake. What’s that scent of juicy berry, soft mimosa, apricot nectar, and warm woods? That’s you bathed in Bath and Body Works’ Twilight Woods!
While not an official Twilight product, you surely can’t deny the allusion to Stephenie Meyer’s creation. 😉
Befooled by Miley Cyrus
Ohh, Miley Cyrus had me fooled. Here I thought iWeb could embed videos that have embedding disabled, a video like Party in the USA. But while it looks like iWeb actually embeds the video, trying to play the video gives a message that embedding is indeed disallowed.

Does iWeb Update of Facebook Actually Work?
Had never noticed that Apple’s iWeb 09 has the ability to post updates to Facebook. Anytime you publish on iWeb, your (configured) Facebook account is supposed to notify your FB friends of these updates.
But does this feature actually work?
Madonna or Lady Gaga: Glee, Round 2b
Let’s continue our Madonna versus Lady Gaga comparison on popular television shows and look at who made a bigger impact on the wonderful world of Glee.
Madonna started it off with an entire episode dedicated to the Power of Madonna. This Glee musical collection tore up the Billboard charts and every performance in the episode was a Madonna hit. And who can forget Sue Sylvester’s rendition of Vogue?
A few episodes later, Lady Gaga’s music and looks were featured on Glee. Unfortunately, this episode lacked the impact and power of Madonna. While the Gaga musical numbers were good, the Glee guys were singing KISS songs.
But let’s get another opinion. When asked, which episode did Miss Universe 1997, Brook Antoinette Mahealani Lee, prefer?
@geewhy glee madonna for sure…
Brook Mahealani Lee
MsUniverse1997
So that settles it. Round 2b goes to the power of Madonna!
Score: Madonna 1, Lady Gaga 2
Madonna or Lady Gaga: American Idol, Round 2a
So which of the music divas is more prevalent on popular television shows? Let’s take a quick look starting with the mega music reality television show known as American Idol.
Back in 2007, Madonna participated in the Idol Gives Back fundraiser but has never been a musical guest or mentor. In this season, Lady Gaga performed on Idol.
Hmmm, I have to give Gaga a slight nod in Round 2a.
Score: Lady Gaga 2, Madonna 0
