The Karate Kid
Alright so the summer’s coming fast and school’s almost over, or already over for many students. I have finals in two weeks or so which means a lot of studying… okay I’m playin’ but if you’re wondering what to do this summer, how about some movies? Call up some people and get ready for these hits, which are bound to be action-packed (or whatever genre you’re into).
The top movies that I think will be great hits this summer are The Karate Kid, The Last Airbender, and Grown Ups, The Karate Kid is sort of a remake of the original classic, but will star Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan. The Last Airbender is based on a hit tv show cartoon and it’ll be cool to see how they do with the bending effects. Grown Ups will be a great comedy because Adam Sandler always cracked me up.

Diddy - Dirty Money
Diddy, firstly known as Puff Daddy has been very busy lately. He’s been mostly hyping up about his new upcoming album, Last Train To Paris by his Diddy – Dirty Money collaboration.
The fans are definitely expecting a lot from this album, which is set to have Drake, Chris Brown, Lil’ Wayne, Swizz Beatz, T.I. and Rick Ross, and Justin Timberlake on the set which was announced yesterday during a press conference announcing the BET Award nominations for which Diddy – Dirty Money is up for Best Group.
The rapper also is planning his movie, Get Him To The Greek where he announced special appearances from the set of the album, including Lil’ Wayne. Diddy talks about Wayne’s imprisonment, saying “I think we gonna miss a certain energy that Wayne has. The beauty about it is, he’ll be back, and hopefully he’ll come back a better person. Whenever we get in trouble, we’re in the public spotlight. So hopefully there’s a lot of kids out there who could learn from any mistakes that we may have put ourselves in, even if we’re not guilty of the crime sometimes.” Maybe Diddy might have a job in motivational speaking, but for now we await for what he has in store for the near future.

California Gurls Song
The MTV Music Awards will be a live event this Summer in Los Angeles, California hosted by Aziz Ansari. Great news has been announced recently that Katy Perry as well as a plethora of other music artists will be performing as well. Katy is said to be performing her single “California Gurls” which is a song that features Snoop Dogg and was inspired by Jay-Z’s “Empire State of Mind.” It’s from her upcoming album Teenage Dream and she stated, “Everybody was holding their drinks in the air and dancing, and I thought, ‘We’re not in New York, we’re in Los Angeles! What about California? What about all the homies, the gin and juice, the swaying palm trees, the sun-kissed skin 24-7.’ I decided that we needed to make a response. I want people to want to book a ticket to California the first time they hear it!” Perry also gave a reason to Snoop being on the track, saying, “We thought it would sound so cool and give the song another dimension. Snoop is as West Coast as it gets.”

Iron Man 2 Poster
I just saw Iron Man 2 today, and I have some thoughts that I’d like to share. First, let me explain Iron Man and what it is, for those of you who never saw the movie. You can skip to the 3rd paragraph if you are familiar with the movie. There’s this smart guy who goes by the name of Tony Stark, and his whole life was dedicated to learning technology and building things. Today, he owns one of the biggest weapon companies, Stark Industries. It was first started by his father, Howard Stark who had a vision for the world where technology helps everyone and make the world a better place.
When Stark is taken captive, he learns how his weapons are not just used for peace, but instead for evil. He builds the first Iron Man suit, which is a crude prototype but nonetheless powerful and destroys the place he was held captive, as well as his own weapons that ended up there. He then improves the suit, and becomes Iron Man, a type of superhero that everyone seem to accept.
Iron Man 2, obviously continues Tony Stark’s story of him being Iron Man. The problem however is that the government and military think it should belong to them, it being considered as a “weapon.” Stark however wins his court case by hacking into the system and showing videos of how countries are creating their own Iron Man prototypes, which are causing many accidents. I do not want to give the whole plot away, so I’ll speed through this. Whiplash, who is never actually referred to as such in the movie, builds his own suit, except it’s mostly just the same technology as Iron Man without the whole suit complexity, and has power “whips.” He seems to hate Iron Man for what his father has done, so wants to get revenge against him and builds and a whole line of suits, using them as weapons and causing chaos.

Google's New Logo
Ah Google, the search engine that everyone seems to be using for almost everything. It solved all your answers, helped you plagiarize those research papers, and even pass the time when nothing was good on TV. I bet many of you however did not take much into account of the design. It was very simplistic, true but that does that necessarily mean it had to be outdated and not give you a good feeling when entering a search query?
Well a new look has finally been released by Google, which sports a new logo, results layout, and various other refinements. Continue reading…

Afghanistan Troop Dancing To Telephone
Lady GaGa and Beyoncé released the Telephone music video a while ago, which got a lot of attention. In fact we posted an article on it the day it came out. It was a very controversial video, but I think you will definitely enjoy this one which was created by a few bored troops.
The video was probably not meant to go viral on YouTube with over a million views and counting but instead for their friends and family for some entertainment.
Even though it is fairly immateur, it definitely has a lot of good stuff. Choregoraphed dance moves, custom costumes, gymnastic routines and more are being enjoyed by the many people that received the link from a friend, or in a moment yourself if it’s the first time you’re hearing this. So what you waiting for, get watching! The video can be found on YouTube or below in the embedded player. Continue reading…
