Manila Trip

These are some pictures Anthony took on his trip to Manila.

My trip got off to a rough start. Halfway to Japan from Los Angeles there was a medical emergency which required the plane to turn around. We landed in Seattle and got the passenger off the plane. In process of refueling and restocking the plane, they missed the NRT airport curfew and everybody had to stay the night in Seattle. Good thing I left two days early!!

Passengers waiting on the plane in Seattle


In-flight meal


Flying over the long tail of Alaska


Seattle Hotel


Tokyo sunset with Mount Fuji in the distance



He got to stay at the swanky Shangri-La hotel. It is a very nice hotel.


He had a great view from his hotel room of Manila.




That mall was HUGE!!!


Lots of scooters in Manila


Bootleg DVDs anybody?


His typical 'Brinner' (since his dinner was technically morning for them)consisted of waffles, french toast, fruit, and sushi. Oh, and a chocolate doughnut. He sure eats healthy when on the road.


The call center had a sign welcoming him and his boss.






Some of the products were a little strange over there...








The ceiling in Manila airport






Irene pretty much passed out the second she got on the plane


Irene is a VERY frequent flier, so they hung out in the crown room in Tokyo for awhile.




It was a really fun trip. 2 hours to LA, 4.5 hours out of LA and about 3 hours back to Seattle, about 14 hours from Seattle to Tokyo and about 4 hours to Manila pretty much was the worst 27 hours in a plane of my life, but that's life in the fast lane. I'm not looking forward to my next flight over there, but I will look forward to the time I get to spend in Manila. I'll be happy to just jet set around the US for the time being though... Too much time in the plane makes Anthony a grumpy boy.

Eye Direction and Lying

Eye Movement and Direction & How it Can Reveal Truth or Lies

This is a continuation of our previous article " Detecting Lies". Many comments by our visitors have asked about how eye direction can indicate the presence of a lie.

So can the direction a person's eyes reveal whether or not they are making a truthful statement? Short answer: sort of. But, it isn't as simple as some recent television shows or movies make it seem. In these shows a detective will deduce if a person is being untruthful simply because they looked to the left or right while making a statement.

In reality, it would be foolish to make such a snap judgment without further investigation... but the technique does have some merit. So, here it is... read, ponder and test it on your friends and family to see how reliable it is for yourself.

Visual Accessing Cues

The first time "Visual Accessing Cues" were discussed (at least to my knowledge), was by Richard Bandler and John Grinder in their book "Frogs into Princes: Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) " From their experiments this is what they found:

When asked a question a "normally organized" right-handed person looks (from your viewpoint, looking at them):

Up and to the Left
Indicates: Visually Constructed Images (Vc)
If you asked someone to "Imagine a purple buffalo", this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Visually Constructed" a purple buffalo in their mind.

Up and to the Right
Indicates: Visually Remembered Images (Vr)
If you asked someone to "What color was the first house you lived in?", this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Visually Remembered" the color of their childhood home.

To the Left
Indicates: Auditory Constructed (Ac)
If you asked someone to "Try and create the highest the sound of the pitch possible in your head", this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Auditorily Constructed" this this sound that they have never heard of.

To the Right
Indicates: Auditory Remembered (Ar)
If you asked someone to "Remember what their mother's voice sounds like ", this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they "Auditorily Remembered " this sound.

Down and to the Left
Indicates: Feeling / Kinesthetic (F)
If you asked someone to "Can you remember the smell of a campfire? ", this would be the direction their eyes moved in while thinking about the question as they used recalled a smell, feeling, or taste.

Down and To the Right
Indicates: Internal Dialog (Ai)
This is the direction of someone eyes as they "talk to themselves".

The Gist of it...

How this information is used to detect lies:

Example: Let's say your child asks you for a cookie, and you ask: "Well, what did your mother say?" As they reply "Mom said... yes.", they look to the left. This would indicate a made up answer as their eyes are showing a "constructed image or sound. Looking to the right would indicated a "remembered" voice or image, and thus would be telling the truth.

Final Notes:

*** Looking straight ahead or with eyes that are defocused/unmoving is also considered a sign of visual accessing.

*** A typical left-handed person would have the opposite meanings for their eye-directions.

*** As with other signs of lying, you should first establish and understand a persons base-behavior before concluding they are lying by the direction of their eyes.

*** Many critics believe the above is a bunch of bull***t. In my own experiments I have found these techniques to be more true than not. But, why not find out for yourself? Make up a list of questions that like the sample ones, and give them to your friends/family anyone who would be your guinea pig, observe their eye movements and record the results.

*** This guide is hardly in-depth, I recommend getting the book "Frogs into Princes: Neuro Linguistic Programming" by Richard Bandler and John Grinder for a more thorough explanation if the subject interests you.

High resolution camera shot

1. A Helicopter goes about on it’s Helicopter tour when……

2. One of the Passengers sees something through the lens of their camera….

3. He zooms in…..huh…what is that?…

4. He zooms in once more……oh wow! Look at that………

5. “I can’t believe what I’m seeing!” says the passenger

6. OMG!!!! LOL!!

Truer words were never spoken!

I read this recently in regards to the new security measures at the airports. It has gotten ridiculous how much security there is, and yet how NOT secure they are making us. Anyway, this is absolutely an awesome analogy. Just substitute the violent relationship with the treatment our government is subjecting us to. It actually makes me ashamed to be an American sometimes...

Right now we are a woman getting beaten by her husband/boyfriend. We can throw a fit and leave or call the cops and the violence will end. Or we can say, as so many do, ‘he isn’t really this bad, he did it for my own good, I did something I shouldn’t have, etc’. And the beatings will continue and get worse and her quality of life and confidence will degrade into nothingness. She will get used to the beatings and take them as the new normal.

Many people look at women in abusive relationships and say, ‘how did that happen, why does she stay?’ The answer is because she didn’t put her foot down when it started.

True true true!!!

Two sites... appbucket.net and applanet.net. Two very valuable resources for Android users.

Hacking the G2

The Tmobile G2 is a fantastic phone. I'm a huge fan of the Android operating system and this phone is a huge help! There are a couple tips I want to share which are ridiculously helpful.

Tip 1: Get the Applanet.net app on your phone. This is the free market which allows you to download paid apps for FREE on your phone!

Tip 2: Get an account with Appbucket.net! This is another free market, but with a twist. You download them to your computer and then transfer them to your phone. Actually more stable and faster than Applanet, but just not as convenient.

Tip 3: Do a temporary root on your phone by searching in the Android Market for Visionary. This will do a temp root which will need to be done each time you reboot your phone. Not a big deal. (edit: Check out the xda-developers.com forums for the Permenant Root solutions)

Tip 3: Follow these steps to turn your phone into a wireless hotspot!

1> Root your phone with visionary from the app store

2> go to http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list?can=2&q=NexusOne and download the latest update to the application

3> Copy it to your G2's sd card

4> Go to your Files application, and run the apk for the wireless tether

Tip 4: BE AWESOME!

jailbreak your iPad!!

This is by far the fastest and easiest way to jailbreak your iPad. Follow the steps in this video to the letter and you will have a whole other experience with your iPad! It is incredible!!



Why should you jailbreak? Let me just give you some reasons. Actually, let me have someone else give you 16 of them.

CLICK HERE

If you want that kind of functionality, then take the few minutes it will be to jailbreak your iPad and open a whole new world of apps and freedom on your device. Just the ability to move more than one icon around and to be able to run apps in the background is worth it!! I can play games while listening to Pandora at the same time now! It is amazing!

NOTE: DO NOT UPGRADE YOUR IPAD IN NOVEMBER WHEN 4.0.1 COMES OUT! It will reverse your jailbreak and your iPad will be actually worse off. There is no reason to upgrade when you do this. Refuse any future upgrades unless you want to undo your jailbreak. There is currently no way of going back to what you have now if you upgrade.

There is lots of research to be done online which will help you understand how to get access to things like the free itunes store, moving multiple icons around, running multiple apps at once, and so much more. Do your research. Google is your friend. I'm not a pro, so don't ask me how to do it. I have learned everything I know about this stuff from Google searches.

Just to give you a helpful start, check this one out. :)

AppSync and Installous for iPad (free itunes market)




Here is a helpful post from one of my favorite Blogs, Gizmodo.

If you're convinced that the walls surrounding the iPhone OS garden are a little too high, jailbreaking is your ticket to freedom. Here's how to bust your iPad out, and why you might want to do so.

How easy is it to jailbreak my iPad?
Stupid easy. The Spirit jailbreak is literally a one click process. Just sync your iPad to make sure everything on your computer is up-to-date, download the Spirit jailbreak application for Mac or Windows, and follow the instructions. In fact, what's most important during the install process is what you shouldn't do, which is to say, pretty much anything. Don't try to fool around with your iPad or iTunes and definitely don't unplug the device while the jailbreak is taking place. Just let Spirit do its thing and you should be fine.

What can a jailbroken iPad do?
First and foremost, multitasking! Backgrounder, an iPhone jailbreak favorite, works beautifully the iPad, allowing you to finally realize that elusive dream of browsing the web to a Pandora-provided soundtrack.

The vast majority of things, on the other hand, don't work as beautifully. Task switchers like ProSwitcher and Kirikae are a no-go so far, though their developers are working on updates that'll work with the iPad.

Basically, the consensus is that it's best to only install apps that have been specifically updated for the iPad. The rest, at best, will half-work and at worst could cause some serious problems. It's likely that Cydia—which itself has a new and improved, iPad-friendly interface—will eventually be full of apps that work swimmingly on the iPad, including pretty much all of the things you know and love on your jailbroken iPhone.

In the meantime, MacStories has a continually updating post of which popular jailbreak apps work on the iPad and which don't, and there's a similar thread on iPadForums in which courageous iPad jailbreak trailblazers are reporting their various successes and failures. Both of these are definitely worth consulting if you take the leap.

What is Cydia?
Cydia is jailbreak HQ, the unofficial app store that gives you access to all of the goodies Apple doesn't allow. After you jailbreak, Cydia will show up as an app like any other, and from there you can download and install Backgrounder and the rest.

Is this going to destroy my iPad?
Probably not. If you stick to Cydia apps that have been updated for use with the iPad, you should be fine. But things are definitely still rough around the edges, and if you just start installing stuff from Cydia willy-nilly, you could seriously mess things up. Stray too far form the beaten path and you might find yourself in a situation in which a factory restore is required, and though there haven't been any reports of it so far, there's always the outside chance that you might brick your iPad altogether.

It's also important to keep in mind that no one is sure how this will work with future upgrades, and once Apple starts trying to patch the holes that make this jailbreak possible, things could get very sticky. So, as always with these sorts of things, proceed with caution, and saving your SHSH blobs is always a good idea.

Things are definitely still rough around the edges, so while the process is easy enough, jailbreaking's still not for the squeamish.

Does this void my iPad's warranty?
Yes. When you jailbreak, you're going off the grid. Apple Store Geniuses, usually a chipper, enthusiastic bunch, will regard your jailbroken device with icy indifference. Of course, restoring your iPad to the original, factory settings should get things back to normal, without anyone ever knowing of your shameful jailbreak secret.

If I jailbreak can I download App Store apps for free?
Yes. Not that we condone this—and I'm not being coy, we really don't—but jailbreaking will let you circumvent the App Store and install many popular apps and games for free. We're not going to get into the specifics here, but if you search around you should be able to get the gist of it.

Will jailbreaking affect my App Store apps?
Nope. You can still use your old apps from the App Store, buy new ones, and sync them to your computer just like normal.

What does it mean that this is an "untethered" jailbreak?
Basically that you don't have to have your iPad plugged in to your computer—or "tethered"—every time you start it up. That's a good thing!

Oh no my iPad looks all crazy and the dock is tiny in the bottom-left corner! What do I do?
This is a known bug with some Cydia apps, like SBSettings. Just "respring"—either in the SBSettings menu or by restarting your iPad—and things should pop back to normal.

OK, that was exciting, but how do I get my old iPad back?
Restoring your iPad to factory settings in iTunes will remove all traces of jailbreaking activity and let you resume your tranquil existence inside Apple's walled garden. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

And remember, be careful! Jailbreaking is unsupported and something that's very new to the iPad. If in doubt about a particular Cydia app, err on the side of caution. You're better safe than sorry, really.

What am I?

I am for the death penalty. I'm not entirely sure where I sit on abortion. I agree that it should be an option, I just don't like that it is used as birth control. I'm against tax credits to the wealthy. I'm for the legalization of marijuana. I'm against gay marriage. I'm against the war in the Middle East, but I'm patriotic and support our troops. I've never collected unemployment. I've never collected welfare. I don't have a 'baby's mamma' anywhere. I used to be a smoker, but if I see you smoking within 50 feet of a public entrance then you are going to hear about it. I'm against gun control, but will never own a gun. I've never watched a football game in my life, but would love to go if my son was playing. I can't stand country music, but have owned boots and a hat. I don't believe it is right that a man can serve in a war and shoot people for a living and die for his country before he is old enough to buy beer in the US. I'm a Christian, but can also speak intelligently about the beliefs of half a dozen other religions and agree with many of them. I would kill and die for my beliefs, but I really can't say there is one organized religion out there that would support me in all of them. I got married before I had kids and won't ever be married to anyone else. I'm comfortable with monogamy and believe children should be raised by two parents. I chew sunflower seeds, would main vein cherry coke if I could, eat sugar by the bucket, could live on Tootsie Rolls and nachos, and believe Taco Bell is one of the food groups. I don't vote. I don't read the paper. I'm not on Facebook. I don't forward chain emails. I may already be a millionaire. I'm the lost heir to the deposed king of Nigeria. I believe my sons should grow up to be men and my daughter should grow up to be single and innocent her entire life lest somebody hurts her and I'm forced to do something against the Geneva Convention. If I was in charge then I would round up everybody with an accent and have them prove they have a right to be in my country. I would pull the troops out of Iraq and post them along the border with instructions to shoot to kill. I would deputize all law enforcement personnel as immigration agents.

So my question is... what am I? Am I a democrat? A republican? Liberal or conservative? I would die for my beliefs in these things and would never support someone who didn't feel the same way. How could I vote for someone who believe in what I oppose even if we were on the same page in certain areas? It it really about picking the least of the evils? Would you put someone into office who would take away what you value most while fighting for your right to value them? My political views are a conundrum.

I only wrote this to think out loud. Someone baited me into talking politics today and they were clearly passionate about being political. My blase attitude about voting and getting involved in the community offended him on some level. I just honestly believe that no political figure is at all interested in me and my needs. I'm a minority among minorities. I'm a married, straight, middle class, white male who actually cares about my credit score. I pay my bills on time. I've never missed a mortgage payment. I'm not in debt. My vehicles are fuel efficient and funtional. My house is clean and not infested with whatever bugs or disease filthy houses have. I mow my lawn and pull my weeds. I don't rely on the government to solve my problems, because frankly... I don't think they are capable of solving anything. I believe America is a terrorist country based on actions we have taken abroad. We invade and force our beliefs on others and I will not support politicians who endorse that kind of thing, even though I support our troops who have to fight. I have no idea where I would fit in the political definitions people like to attach to their beliefs, but I can say that I don't agree with anybody. I'm happy being independent in my beliefs and thoughts. The next person who wants to get in a political debate with me is going to get punched in the throat or worse.

God bless America. The king is dead. Long live the king.

I wouldn't be surprised...

This is more than likely the absolute future of technology. However, I don't think it will take till 2014 before it is reality. It will probably happen by 2012.

Awesome Video!!

scary...

This isn't even new. Videos of this guy have been circulating for nearly five years!

Parker's new bike

My 2 year old is in love with my bike. I got him something for his birthday that is absolutely perfect and I thought I'd pass it on to you guys. I found a little bike at ToysRUs that he looked really cute on, but it was a weak sauce 6v bike and I knew he would out grow it in about a month. So I went online looking for something better. I found this guy selling on eBay and bought a bike just to see how the quality was.

He shipped it super quick by FedEx. He is in the Dallas area and I'm in Salt Lake. I put the order in on Monday and the bike arrived on Thursday. Assembly was a piece of cake and I put my other two kids to work testing it out before I let my youngest see it.







It was definitely a winner! It is a 12v bike and can hold 90 pounds. My 6 year old and 4 year old were just about as much as it could take. Going uphill wasn't making it very happy, but on a level grade it buzzed around with both of them without a problem.

So I went back to his store on ebay and looked at what else he had. I knew I wasn't going to get away with just having one of them, so I bought two others so everybody had one. My daughter has the red one and I got one that looks more like my bike for my youngest. Since I wanted them all to have something a little different, I got one with raked out forks for my 6 year old. Now I've got a little biker gang terrorizing the neighborhood.











They have training wheels on them, so you don't have to worry about them dropping the bike. Well, you don't have to worry as long as they don't decide to take it off road and then stop on a precarious angle. lol







You have to admit those are pretty sweet! I sent the pictures to the guy and told him I got a lot of questions about where I got them as we drove around the neighborhood. He as a store that isn't ebay if anybody wants to check them out. www.motorcycles4kids.com. The ebay store seems to have a little lower prices since they include shipping there. You can use MY-10%-354 as a discount code on his store if you want to order there, or you can go to his ebay store here if you want to order there.

I'm not affiliated with him nor am I getting anything to promote him or anything like that. I just thought they were awesome bikes that were really inexpensive and my kids love them. If you have kids who are into your bikes like mine are, then I thought you might want to look into it.
