Taking Notes on Players
Important or a waste of time?
I would argue that if nothing else, it is important to take a mental note of who you are playing against. PokerStars offers a feature that allows you to click on a players avatar and write down whatever disparaging things that you have to say about them. Only you can see your notes, and they could be helpful if you run into that player again. PokerStars even takes this idea to the next level by allowing you to assign ?colors? to a person, and you can label those colors however you choose....Read more

If you are a sub-par to average poker player who is hemorrhaging money playing online poker, then this is the article for you! I have found the perfect way to make a decent amount of money, (around 50 dollars per day), but it involves some serious grinding. As long as your are patient, and you don't mind playing ABC poker, then this is a full proof method. Break out the Enya and open up a couple of bags of sun flower seeds, because you will be in for a long day. However, at the end you will most assuredly have made a profit. ...Read more

Matt Leinart
Are you more mature than a fifth grader?
Yesterday, Matt Leinart was quoted as saying ?The philosophy is you want the best 11 guys to play. I feel like I?ve proved that with my performance. I don?t really know what else I could possibly do, so it probably goes beyond football. For me, I just really want an explanation and I haven?t been given one.? ...Read more

Can the Celtics Still Contend
The Window is Closing
The window is closing fast on the aging Celtics, and I wonder if they have another title run in them. If you took the Celtics roster and went back ten years, you would have a dynasty. The only important players on the team who aren't on borrowed time are Rondo and Perkins, but the rest of the group is ancient. Below is the 2010-2011 Celtics roster. They clearly have some huge names, but unless Doc Rivers can invent a time machine, the Celtics may be in for a rough season. ...Read more

Most Wonderful Time
College Football is in the Air
My favorite sports season starts tomorrow with the official kick-off of college football. Although the top games come in week 2, there are still plenty of intriguing matchups in week 1.

Here are the top five games for week 1:...Read more

On there I found this image that compiled all the storm paths of tropical cyclones from the year 1945 to 2006. I thought the image was pretty neat, take a look below: ...Read more

The Voodoo 5 6000
The long lost and forgotten GPU
As most of you know, the big news in the tech world this week surfaced when AMD determined it would no longer carry the ATI name anymore. Our beloved (AMD) ATI Radeons are now just AMD Radeons. Weird huh? I'm sure some of you were even surprised when AMD decided to invest in ATI a few years back. It appears that it was a healthy decision for the long run, as they have been able to implement chip solutions that incorporate a fresh mix of GPU/CPU power. Basic/business users were able to utilize motherboards with onboard VGA that didn't suck so much ass anymore. HDMI, DVI, VGA, CrossFire support built into the southbridge? Yes please. ...Read more

Digg re-design backfires
Revert to the old Digg?
If you have taken a look at Digg within the past few days, you probably have already figured out that the site has gone downhill by introducing a ton of commercial features. It seems like no longer are the users the focus; no, now all you get on the top news are "sponsored" news stories by companies that pay Digg. There is not even a bury button anymore!! As you may have also noticed, to protest the new Digg, many users have dug a ton of Reddit links, so the whole homescreen of Digg is filled by their competitor. ...Read more
