Theme of Ultra Music?
I love the Ultra series of music – Weekend, Trance, Dance. There’s always good music and mixes with Ultra. But there seems to be a theme with their CD covers. Can you spot the theme of Ultra music?
Tyrion Lannister=GOAT Hand of the King
Season 2 of the Game of Thrones just proves how Tyrion Lannister as the Hand of the King is GOAT. Here are some of his most memorable lines from this season. Be forewarned (though as a Game of Thrones fan you already know) that there’s some profanity to be heard.
Linkwithin > Outbrain?
I haven’t been collecting data on this but purely by observation, it seems like my previous install of Linkwithin generated more internal clicks than Outbrain. Providing similar services for recommended posts, Outbrain sounded more comprehensive, so I made the switch.
Now I’m not so sure. I recall more clicks recorded from Linkwithin recommendations. There are a few from Outbrain, but much less on a daily basis. Maybe it’s time to change back?
Quality Control and Chopsticks
Here’s a riddle for you. What do you get when quality control fails on disposable chopsticks?
Answer – you get a stick or at least, half of a working chopsticks pair. I got this defective chopsticks today. I couldn’t pry the two halves apart. There was no break or seam with both sticks completely stuck together.

Wear Linsanity for $100
Linsanity for your feet is black and orange and costs $100. That’s the details for the latest Nike Zoom Hyperdunk 2011 Low “Linsanity” edition. Supposedly released this weekend.
Not sure how this black and orange colorway represents JLin, but who am I to question Linsanity?
From Blazing to Fat to Now Open
Blazing Steaks in the Enchanted Lakes Shopping Center is no more, changing to a new Fat Greek location. Fat Greek was “opening soon” for a long, long time, but as of this week, Fat Greek is now open for business in Kailua.
Look for their other location on Ala Moana Blvd in Waikiki.
Upgraded to Disqus 2012
Did you notice anything different with the comments section for each post? Pulpconnection’s comment engine has been upgraded to the beta version of Disqus 2012. I’ve been using Disqus for some time after switching from Intense Debate. So far, I’m liking the improvements this newer version of Disqus brings, namely the consolidated area for comments and community.
At its core, Disqus handles blog post comments aka Discussions.
But now there are additional tabs bringing you closer to related activities like viewing Top Discussions and Top Commenters. In the past, this information was available but typically in separate widgets.
You can also vote on comments and easily share them in your other social circles. With these added features, I might take out the Recent Comments in the right sidebar.
Until Disqus 2012 is released to the general public, you can request an invite (my request took about 2 days before I was invited).
