HUGO

PRESENTED BY DANIELLE TOPOROFF There's an aura of late night heat and mystery in the music of Hugo. For him, Old Tyme Religion isn't just another album title -- it's an apt summation of a certain conviction that continuously embeds itself in his story, and in his songs. His real life experiences have taken him from the Mekong River jungle to the booth of a favorite Thai restaurant in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood he has made home. His spiritual and musical sojourns have led to Old Tyme Religion, a lyrically provocative, tunefully hook-filled unconventional pop debut. "I'm trying to make rock & roll in the age of hip-hop," he affirms. "A complete thought in 3 minutes and 30 seconds, that's the challenge. A song is a planet with gravity and atmosphere and things living in it. An album is a solar system." Born in England and raised in Thailand, Hugo -- a seriously dedicated songwriter, musician and performer -- has already plowed through several aesthetic incarnations on the road to Old Tyme Religion. www.myspace.com bit.ly Tune in again!!!

Review of Legitimate Offers to Get a Free Apple iPad, iPhone 4 or iPod

Of all the gadgets and technologies to come out over the past decade, none have been as revolutionary and captivating as the Apple iPad, iPhone, and iPod. Over the years not only have these technologies become an integral part of our daily lives, but they've also drastically changed how we interact with mediums such as email and the internet. They've brought us closer together with technologies such as "Face Time" real time video chat, mobile instant messaging, and instant connectivity to just about anyone in the world. In short, people love their iPods and iPhones.

One thing that these gadgets are not, however, is "cheap". You can expect to pay anywhere from $100-200 for base model iPods to as much as $1000 or more for an iPad with all the bells and whistles and 3G access. Fortunately there are a number of offers and programs on the internet which allow fans of Apple's gadgets to get their hands on one without having to empty their pockets or charge up their credit cards. While there is no shortage of offers, one should be diligent in using common sense to avoid scams and offers which do nothing but waste your time.

One of the more popular offers is one that promises a chance to win a free iPad, free iPod, or free iPhone 4 from Apple in exchange for participating in a raffle or similar program. What these programs fail to reveal though, is that most times there are tens of thousands, sometimes even hundreds of thousands of people who are participating for what usually amounts to 1 or 2 actual free iPhones or iPads available to win. Given odds like these, it would be easier to win most lotteries than to get your hands on a free Apple iPhone.

Other offers that promise a free iPhone or iPod can be seen on Facebook in varying shapes and forms and usually involve requiring a participant to "like" a fanpage and suggest it to a certain number of their friends in order to have a shot at one. Most or all of these offers end with participants never receiving anything for their efforts let alone a free iPhone. It's silly to think that one could get a free iPad or iPod just for liking and suggesting a Facebook fanpage to their friends, but many people fall for these kinds of offers because suggesting the page to friends gives the false impression that the offer is somehow more legitimate than it really is. When trying to gauge the legitimacy of a free offer, one should ask themselves if an offer seems "too good to be true" before participating. That is to say, why would anyone give away a free iPhone 4 or iPad that costs hundreds of dollars just for suggesting a Facebook page.

The third type of offer is one that produces legitimate results in exchange for minimal effort on the part of the participant. Marketing and Research & Development departments of large companies spend a great deal of money testing their products both before releasing them on the market and after in order to better mold their products to their target users. In order to better cater their gadgets to their users, they need honest feedback from real people who use the iPhone, iPad or iPod gadgets on a daily basis.

There are websites that offer regular people the opportunity to participate in these programs by becoming Beta Testers in exchange for nothing more than their opinions and feedback about the product that they choose to test. Participants are shipped either a free iPhone, iPad, or iPod model within a few days and are asked to begin using it on a daily basis just as if they had bought one from a store. In the course of using their gadgets, they're also asked to note any features or software which they find to be extremely useful or hard to use. The only downside is that users can only participate in one Beta Tester program at a time, that is, you cannot have both a free iPhone and a free iPad shipped to you at the same time. The upside is that after using your gadget for 3-4 weeks and providing feedback on your experience, the iPhone, iPad or iPod that you were shipped is yours to keep for free.

Nourished by the Same River - Roads to Development

The Greater Mekong River Sub-region has probably the most hostile topography on Earth. This is a vast area where, in the past, huge mountains, rapid rivers and impenetrable forests made human contact almost impossible, but today the situation has changed, and greatly improved transportation has made contact between different human communities and economic development possible, and regional cooperation much more convenient. Today we look at the development of regional transportation, from the distant past to the present day. We will take a walk down the ancient tea and horse path, visit a transportation hubbub Mandalay and see a flower train station in Myanmar, and travel along the Yunnan-Myanmar railway. We will look at both ancient and contemporary means of transportation, from mule or horse drawn carts to contemporary cars, from the often-treacherous, bumpy, zigzag, ancient paths to modern highways, as consider the changes that vast improvements in transportation have brought to the lives of the local people who strive untiringly for a better future in these places nourished by the Lancang-Mekong River.

Thailand declares emergency

Bangkok braces for flooding from high tides Severe flooding in Thailand Friday threatened central areas of Bangkok, a bustling capital barely above sea level and facing inundation at the next high tide predicted at 13 feet. Residents who decided to stay in their homes despite government pleas to get out waited anxiously to see if the highest tide, forecast for Saturday afternoon, would overwhelm defenses along the Chao Phraya River and its many canals. Bangkok's outer suburbs are already submerged but the the central city has so far been largely spared the misery Thailand has been suffering for months in the nation's worst flooding since 1942. But now the city must face two converging demons of water. Runoff the equivalent of 480000 Olympic-sized pools are trying to make their way south to the sea through Bangkok as high tide pushes the water in the opposite direction. "The challenge is to manage the huge runoff from the north passing via the city on its way to the Gulf of Thailand," said a Red Cross bulletin. The high tide Saturday, the Red Cross said, will put "extreme pressure" on Bangkok's elaborate system of dikes and other flood defenses. Meanwhile health concerns rose with the water levels. Bangkok residents waded through murky waters without knowing what lurked within, the risk of infection and communicable disease worrying health officials.The government sent out crocodile hunters after reports of crocodiles as well as snakes in the filthy floodwater. "We were ...

News Channels - Too Many or Not Enough

Needing to know everything that is going on locally, nationally and internationally is an obsession these days! There are local newscasts on in the morning - generally from 5 to 9 in the morning as well as at Noon. You also have the Evening local news on from 5 to 7 p.m. at night in most places during the week and again at 11 p.m. to wrap things up for the day. Along with this you also have the overnight news around the world on many stations. As if that were not enough for people, there are now 24-hour news channels that provide all the news you could want. The question here is this: are these TV Shows or something else altogether?

The problem is that many people do not consider news broadcasts to be a TV Show. The title question also comes into play here as well. Are there far too many news channels or not nearly enough? Well, I guess that answer would largely depend upon you, the reader, wouldn't it? Are you a person that absolutely must have every single bit of news that you can get your hands on? Or are you someone who is so sick to death of nothing but negativity in the news that you rarely ever watch it any more?

For the most part news channels and TV Shows about news channels and radio stations are popular. The TV Shows that fall into this category are "WKPR in Cincinnati" and "Midnight Caller" to name a couple. There are others as well. Here again, it goes back top the title question in another form: how much of the "news" is too much? Some say that the "news" is not really that at all. It is always good to know what is going on in the world today, it just depends of how much of the same thing you are willing to deal with.

Is News Paper Classified Advertising Effective?

This is a powerful topic that is often over looked. The age of the internet has saturated public minds for over the past twenty years or more. People still read printed material regardless of the internet craze. It amazes me as I realize how many people tend to equate the internet with scandalous activity. Printed text is regarded more trust worthy. This is of course ridiculous, however it apparently holds true for public awareness. The mass appeal ( at the time of this writing) is still with printed text, in terms of security. The average reader actually thinks printed text is more reliable. It's probably because they think there is more scrutiny involved with publishing news papers, books and magazines. You actually may know that, at the time of this writing scrutiny exists in both media forms. It's my personal experience to see internet security measures on the same level as printed material today. One form is no more secure then the other. This is like trying to analyze which is more blue, a blue crayon or the sky on a sunny day. We acknowledge, as a whole the public is basically "seasonally impressionable."

Classified advertising in news paper advertisements remains to be one of the most cost effective ways to reach the masses. Looking backward, I find Paid per Click advertising has become saturated to the point, where only a few can manipulate key words for a high position and that's only momentarily. The rest of the marketers must wait for their chance to rise up to at least fifth position, on the search engines. Practically no one ever remains at top position, on the search engines and if they do, they must "submit their first born child" (That was only a joke to imply the incredible monetary and contextual challenge of being involved with Paid Per Click Advertising). the impracticality of Paid Per Click Advertising permeates my thoughts with memories of being hustled.

The down side of News Paper Advertising is when you have to run a lot of ads in order to get a discount. Then the classified advertising manager may say you can't get a "tear sheet." A tear sheet is evidence the ad ran. Sometimes the discount advertising managers claim they can't give a tear sheet. Sometimes they claim that the quantity of different papers are so numerous, they can't keep up with all the insertions. I personally think a reply, like that is rubbish. When ever running ads do your best to try and get physical proof your ads ran. Your physical proof is a "tear sheet." Get an actual copy of the advertisement, as it ran in your desired paper. News Paper advertising can be profitable, when done carefully.

Word Scramble Puzzles from News to Internet

The history of our beloved word scramble puzzles is much the same as that of word find puzzles and other types of word games. Initially they gained popularity through the widespread medium of the newspaper, then they moved on to their own word scramble and word game books and finally they moved on to the personal computer and from there hopped onto the web as it too gained in popularity.

Word scramble puzzles and other word games are popular because they entertain while exercising some rarely used brain cells. A person sitting down to their breakfast of coffee and donuts can work the daily word scramble in their local newspaper and feel a little bit better, a little bit smarter.

Word scramble puzzles are also good mediums for learning in the classrooms. Lots of kids would rather work a few word scrambles on words that they are learning the meanings of rather than writing the word in a sentence and putting down its definition. Many teachers do use word scrambles and other word games to encourage learning in the classroom through fun. Often these games offer a small treat for the student who finishes the fastest.

Now a days you can find a word scramble on the internet to print out or work online with a few clicks of the mouse. No longer must you wait for the newspaper each day or go out to the store to purchase a new word games book. The sites that offer word scramble puzzles usually offer a couple of other word games and often they can be found with themes for fun or for use at a themed party. Word scrambles can be great to give to the kids at the next birthday party when you are looking for a few minutes to sit down and relax.
