That’s One Way to Get Ready for a Night Out

,

KITV.com reports on several arrests stemming from theft from the Navy Exchange. Most thefts were of electronics and small, pilfer-able items. But for one defendant, it sounded like she was getting ready for a night out:

Then there’s defendant Kirby R. Sells, who is charged with stealing two tank tops, makeup, two pairs of panties, a bra and whitening strips from the store on Aug. 4.

Umm, yeah.

DWTS Best of Week 4

What does Dancing with the Stars competitor, Hines Ward, think about the Karate Kid, Ralph Macchio, reenacting “The Crane” in one of his dances?

Q: Can you convince Ralph Macchio that he has to use “The Crane” during one of his dances?

Haha. I don’t think Ralph needs much convincing to do that. My guess is that that may be his secret weapon and we may see it at some point during the competition. I would love to see it myself.

from the Los Angeles Times.

For Week 4 of Dancing with the Stars, I have to go back to Mark Ballas and Chelsea Kane as one of my favorites. That Viennese Waltz was truly enchanting.

And speaking of the Karate Kid, here’s Ralph and Karina dancing the waltz. During the entire performance, I kept thinking, “Be strong, Daniel” from the movie Karate Kid.

Flip Cameras No More

, , ,

So Cisco is ending its Flip line of point and shoot video recorders. I’m sorta not surprised after owning a Flip camera.

The Flip is nice and easy to use, but… it isn’t the greatest thing either. It’s portable, and the video quality is good. But you really need to be within a few feet of the subject for good video, and even then, audio is not good. Compared to the video recording of the iPhone 4, I can see how the Flip became expendable. Instead of carrying a Flip and an iPhone, I’d prefer a single device, the iPhone, that has more functionality. That and I much prefer the audio quality of the iPhone recordings.

The moment of change for me was at the ArtSpree event. Granted this hula dancer started doing his thing adjacent to me, but after watching the captured HD video from the iPhone 4, I knew my Filp camera was no more.

Placenta Hair Rejuvenating Conditioner

When shopping at your neighborhood Wal-mart, be sure to pick up that Placenta Hair Rejuvenating Conditioner.

It’s right next to the Liver-Infused Shampoo, in the aisle one over from Hannibal’s Flava Beans in a Can. Something must be lost in translation!

Yogur Story Is an Oasis of “Ohs”

, ,

Gave the unusually named Yogur Story a try this weekend, and it is an oasis of “ohs,” from its location, to its decor, to the beauty of it patrons, to the (oh no) warm food.

Where is Yogur Story? Next to the very green Sorabol on Keeaumoku, down the way from 939. Oh, okay, got it. Oh, that place is huge!

Oh wait, this place serves more than yogurt and dessert right?

Oh nice!

Oh yay, starting off with a peppermint latte.

Oh hey, is that @mirthlab downstairs where all the beautiful people sit? And was that Malika Dudley at another table. Oh wow!

What else can you say but OH! in the bathroom.

Oh, the food sounds so good on the menu and looks oh so good, but… oh no, the food is warm.

Despite the one zing of warm food, you need to give Yogur Story a try. It really isn’t what I expected. On Yelp, Yogur Story has an average of 3.5 stars, and I would have to agree. Would have been 4 to 4.5 stars if the food were hot. Still though amazing design elements, modern with playful twists.

Next time, I’ll have to try the yogurt.

Researching Group Buying Payment and Tracking Apps

, , , ,

Who doesn’t like the deals and discounts offered by group buying services like Groupon, Living Social, Play Hawaii, et alia? What I don’t like is tracking my purchases and redeeming my coupons from these services.

I have to check out some group buying iPhone apps to ease these pains. I’m talking no vouchers to print then forget at home. I not only want to see my purchases, but also be able to redeem my coupons when I visit the physical store similar to Starbucks Mobile Card.

The search begins…

DWTS Best of Week 3

Week 3 of Dancing with the Stars had many solid performances. I enjoyed Mark and Chelsea, but they were my favorites on Week 2 so I want to offer some variety. Kendra and Petra did well, but I wasn’t feeling their dances. I couldn’t decide on one, so I have two favorites from Week 3. The first is Hines Ward and Kym Johnson jiving to the elements otherwise known as Earth, Wind, and Fire.

Second is Kirstie Alley almost busting Maks’ leg only 20 seconds into their Rumba, and what a recovery! The song choice of Brudda Iz Over the Rainbow was a heavenly pick.
