Greyhound... Now with Air Freshener.

I swear its in the latest TV commercial. Attention Greyhound: stop being a BUS company and be the nationwide transportation company. Integrate bus/air/train. Flatrate USA $99.

The porn sites again

I decided a couple days ago to get the Society-of-Incredible-Nerds.com website back on the Internet. This was precipitated by my deteriorating financial condition, and the sudden willingness of my GF to let me use her videos. Actually, she has her own site Size-Doesnt-Matter.com which is included under the same subscription.

If you are a horndog like me, i think you will enjoy it.  The NERDS is intended to grow into an actual social club, i have mentioned it to a few Disco owners here in vegas, and we will have things like free passes and drink TWOFERS for our members.

Loving Love

Sunday night i finally got a chance to see the Cirqe de Sole' show "LOVE" which plays in the space where the Sigriied and Roy show used to be.

The Room has been completely re-done, seats are highly raked, we sat at a very high elevation, giving us a great view of the entire theatre.

The music is re-mixed Beatles Songs and a few outtakes of chatter among the fab four. The actors are accomplished preformers/dancers/acrobats, but the real star of the show is the lavish production staging.

If you think your dreams are colorful, multiply that tenfold and you will get a small idea.

The show is like a great  Peter MAX POSTER magnified a million times and come to life.

Even though our seats were 80 feet from the center of the stage, our visual field was constantly filled with spectacle.

The story line, told in dance, is a man's quest for love, a bouquet of flowers representing his desire.

The only complaint about the show was that it was over too soon. Las vegas shows tend to be 90 minutes in length, and LOVE is typical in that respect. That an hour and a half can go by so quickly speaks to the great entertainment value of the show.

If you are a Beatles fan, it's a must see. If you are not, you will probably enjoy it anyhow.

Beacher's RockHouse

Woke up very late, about 1:30 kinda rushed out the door, did a very brief visit to JET. Eddie, who DJ's in the house room, is famious for his great T-shirts. He had a huge orange circle with an E on it, it was the official logo of the E-train, a main NYC subway route.

it was almost 3 when i got to PURE, there was still a line, but it was new arrivals, not ppl that started queuing up at 10 (i hope.)

I left PURE early to see the new BEACHER'S ROCKHOUSE, which had its grand opening party last Tuesday: 

The Vegas Edition of the Paris Hilton CD Release Party Started in the Beacher's RockHouse Grand Opening street fair.

I started at the street fair also, but walked across the street (at the light) to PURE after Paris' brief appearance, so my only look at the inside was pre-opening.

Last night i got my first look at the joint in action. I always Loved that little venue, in front of the IMPERIAL PALACE. It used to be a walk-in bar and taco place, with DJ at night, and lately karaoke.  Beacher has transformed it into, i started to say three ring circus,  which it is, but it's all squeezed into a half-ring.

Inside is verything a drunk tourist could possibly want to see, and do, and more: booze, a mechanical bull, acrobats, go go girls. Oh, i said girls, no need to continue. *laugh*   

The publicity for the event was the best i have ever seen done in vegas. Tickets were posted online and very well advertised, you had to give up an email address to get them.

Paris Hilton Touches Me. TWICE

Last night was the Release Party for Paris Hilton's New CD at PURE in Caesars Palace, here in vegas.

Prior to that, a block party on the other side of the strip, a favor for a friend, she says, to mark the opening of BEACHER'S MADHOUSE in front of the Imperial Palace. Even Oscar  Goodman, who is the mayor of las vegas (which does not technically include the strip) proclaimed August 29th PARIS HILTON DAY.

Paris Hilton -- Ultra Violet
Number 4 of an infinite series.

So she is standing in the VIP stage booth, right next to the DJ, and fans are dancing below her (the stage is about 4 ft high with a perspex fence to keep ppl from putting their drinks on celeb's feet)  I was dancing away as my normal crazy self, about 3 ft in front of the stage 4 or 5 hot ladies were dancing around me, and were waving their hands in the air, when Paris started touching them. Almost instantly half the audience was pressing the stage and reaching out their hands to her. At first, i kept my hands dancing, but it would have been rude (not to mention really dumb) not to participate, so she briefly and gently held my hand.

Detail of #7 in this series
Aura-CAM

The image above  is my first attempt to convey the feeling of Paris Hilton. Soft, warm, assured. OK i have never kissed the pope's ring, but that's what i think it was like.  Eastern religions have a concept called DARSHAM, a state of being caused by being in the presence of god. Yeah, i had that. Me and a couple hundred starstruck 20-somethings.

You may be surprised to learn that Ms Hilton's biggest fans are girls.  CTL says its probably because she "has everything a girl wants." He has had the hots for her since the DVD came out, but XMZ  finally determined it was because she was the first actually hot girl that had more money than him. Of course he denies this. I was totally amazed by her body of work, visit IMDB and look at her credits. She says the income from her fashion lines was $7Megabucks last year.  Those who dismiss Paris Hilton, failed to see much of her brand, because her target market had been under their radar. Now i understand the way-too-skinney arms, she is role modeling for them.

Then another similar opportunity a little later. TWICE, and on only the third time i have ever been in the same venue with her. Some time after that, Paris Started singing some tracks from her new album. OMG she is really good! A sweet bell-clear yet breathy voice, Paris Hilton's voice reminds me of the 60's vocal goddess Julie London.  (The amazon site has snippets of all the tracks, if you want to hear a sample of Julie singing.)

The material, however, was not Julie London at all,  Paris's CD is Superbly perfect Disco (although the line between POP and disco these days is VERY thin) that had me dancing up another little gaggle of ladies, apparently this caught her eye,  she directed her presence toward us throughout most of the numbers.

Ms. Hilton dances and poses as if She has been taking hottie lessons, but only a zen master can teach the serenity you see on her face here.

Warren Jeffs, Slaver

I fail to understand why our media pussyfoot around the term slavery.

"Trafficing, Human Trafficking. No matter how softly you say it, the fundamentalist pimps of the world work the same way: Make women and girls into slaves, and the men will follow, yea, worship you.

the only difference between Jeffs or the Waco Whackos and Las Vegas Flesh Merchants is the conservative homespun dresses on their victims instead of short shorts and tube tops.

APPLE ITUNES Customer SUPPORT REALLY, REALLY, really SUCKS.

The 800 number on my credit card bill is just a recording. It says visit the website. And gives you a URL two directories deep. At which point you can't find doodley.

Zero help from the one operator i DID contact after searching the site a half hour or so for a phone number

Well ill just submit my problem through my credit card company and let them spend $100s of people time responding and resolving what should have been a 10 minute call.

More proof of how BEAN COUNTERS SPOIL THE SOUP

UPDATE 7:PM IT TURNS OUT IT WAS THE xmz THAT USED THE CARD (HERS, BTW) GREAT.

TOO BAD I DIDN'T GET AN OPERATOR TO HELP STRAIGHTEN IT OUT FROM THE GITGO.

Now my poor credit card company needs to mail a new card, and i have no cash machine access for my midnight money needs.

Well, when the paperwork comes in the mail, i will let them put the charge back on my account. Until then ill just use i-TUNES's money for a while.

update Tuesday AM. was able to call bank and cancel the refusal, so itunes has their $19.95 (for one song XMZ tells me, what a ripoff)

so now i just have to suffer waiting for the replacement card, which is not THAT big a deal.

my capslock key was on in the middle if this.

POLE-A-PALOOZA 2006

I figured out why Pole-A-Palooza is such a pleasure to watch, its a GRAVITY game. I hope i have captured the movement as well as the moment in this new gallery. Too bad millions of guys were not paying 49 cents to vote for the winner. But, hey that's me, looking for another little trickle of pennies.

The SONY T-9 (there's a T-10 already, same form factor, all accessories should work, etc.) has a fine video mode that makes an MPEG2 640 X 480 NTSC stream. A gigabyte memory stick holds 12 minutes.

Spent yesterday afternoon and evening going frame by frame and picking out stills from the.. um.. hmm i can't call it footage, there is no film or tape... How about GIGAGE. This morning started adding a couple descriptions, and creating the galleries. It all posted about 2 pm.

I think the problem that created the tiny images was that it printed the preview window. So this time i undocked it and viewed at full 640 X 480. sure enough, i got 640 X 480 JPEGs. The total runtime of the one full plus 1 less than half full memory sticks was over 15 minutes.  I was not at all happy with the autofocus on the SONY T-9 i will have to experiment with presetting or something. Since zoom is disabled after you start recording,  the zoom buttons become available for duty as manual focus input. A pure firmware change.

  A lot of interlace and other artifacts that surprised me, for example, The little burst of winks from redeye reduction and burst-shooting high end cameras gave little strobe trails.  I imagine the effective "shutter speed" to be about 1/60. there appears to be a lot of blanking, though how much would it take to miss a strobe pulse. The cells may not blank at all until read time, which would make the exposure 1/30th, but read out interlaced.

The big bursts from the Pro Strobes could give a one fram pattern retention of highlight areas. You can see who had a good eye for peak action by when their strobes went off.  It helped the struggling autofocus circuits in the cam, but i didn't use any of the fully strobelit shots. HIS (or her, you should see the hot lady photographer, oh, here:

I think i have seen her in the clubs getting celebs posing with other celebs, etc. She seems immune to my dancing moves. Bet then, i have only seen her "on the clock." [2006/08/30 Girls are "on the clock" when: 1. A baby needs attention 2. they are newly married. 3. they are working. A friend, the coffee guy has 8 girls and they just fresh-roast and ship hundreds of pounds of coffee every day. As long as noone is around hitting on them.

If you guys would all join the nerds, we could hire her to follow me around making pictures.

*******

these guys crack me up.

Pole-A-Palooza 2006

This show was so hot i won't need VIAGRA for a week.       ...zeke

Real pole dancers are the hottest females since ballerinas.

Strong women, but not muscular like female body builders. In ballet, girls start working a horizontal pole called a BAR. The exercises are somewhat difficult at first as they stretch and tone the muscles. The resulting body is muscular, yet sculpted with Renoir's curves. The teachers stress grace and flow, hours can be spent on the precise curl of one finger. Here is a site full of great Ballerinas.

In this morning's pole dancing competion, the $10,000 prize went to Jenyne Wilson, a very beautiful lady and gymnast. There were other dancers as strong and as graceful, but none of them had her smile!Congratulations, you earned it.

I took several thousand photos of the event, ill start looking for a needle in a needle stack and get the best of them uplinked to my server.

Lots of old faces (and no names, of course... i need a little mouse in my hat, like in the book "Ben and Me." THere's a role model... BEN FRANKLIN. The printing press was the Internet of its day, and POOR RICHARD'S ALMANAC was that century's GOOGLE.

I guess i have other things in common with good old Ben, we apparently share a love of beautiful women, as well as a respect for the anti-sexual powers of drink.

"Alcohol doth Lechery both Provoke and Unprovoke... It provoketh the desire, but unprovoketh the ability" ....Ben Franklin

I am sure ben would have enjoyed the heck out of the festivities at light. If he is in the heaven he deserves, i hope he took some time out from his catch of the day to look in.

A surprise ending: A perfectly packed (pulse) parcel of photons propagates, perhaps preventing panic. Incoherent streaming signals from a strategically stationed strobe light in the fire alarm system. Fast risetimes cast wavefront shadow on CMOS sensors.

apparently the show was so hot it set off the fire alarm in the BELLAGIO hotel and we all streamed out about 4 AM.

Bean Counters Spoil the Soup

IM chat Interview for the book

Disco Legend Zeke: did you know cell carriers intentionally introduce jitter into all packets to prevent VOIP from working!!! who will be the first to open up their $75 a month ports... and push their own IP [will be the winner, because their store will be full of high end dual/modem pure IP terminals. with YAHOO VOICE running over it.

World's Greatest Programmer: T-Mobile's currently testing VOIP phones.
DLZ: corporations don't understand open community.
WGP: The idea being you roam from t-mobile hotspots to the cellular network seamlessly.
DLZ: well there are already TCP-ip headsets.

DLZ: T-mobile is the most likely to "GET IT"

DLZ: and making it all IP flattens the network model into a cloud [the network is invisible to the device, in schematic drawings it's depicted as a big fluffy cloud] and straws or pipes. This is a very efficient method of building a network... costs go way down. [but the bean counters are afraid of a NET NEUTRAL model because they are already seeing lost sales of the old connection based business model.]

AT&T killing their copy of Zeke's wireless Internet
at the beginning of the millennium, AT&T, yes the one that had to get acquired just to pick up the last mile, had perfected the point to multipoint model

They had it working but the bean counters axed it because the $35 a month basic dish with dial tone, and 1 meg internet was cutting into their $1200 a month T-1 business. [yep they owned the last mile (basically a system like MOTOROLA CANOPY, which is considered the de facto best ISP backbone system around. You might think Motorola canopy is overpriced, but you can amortize one base station over 200 subscriber stations, which are real cheap in bundles. you look at the development and tech support costs (read "great hi-tech jobs for, um, i hope, americans of Motorola. They have had the same business model forever, an example of a management keeping the bean counters at bey. You know they are looking at all those scientist level salaries as a quickie boost to the quarterlies..]

DLZ: who is it with a YAHOO enabled platform?
WGP: I don't know... whoever carries the Nokia 3650, I think. Probably Verizon.
DLZ: its a handset feature?
WGP: Yahoo! Go Mobile is.
WGP: Works on PPCs, too, but that hasn't been released yet afaik.
DLZ: i was thinking about making a .mobi domain?
WGP: Bleh.
WGP: I hate the idea of .mobi.
DLZ: yeah... tho getting a CSS than can deliver selectively is gonna be a must
WGP: I don't want to see some watered-down mobile site from my phone. I want to see the real site.
WGP: I have the capability of doing so, let me exercise it. I hate sites that react to my phones user agent and feed me a page that's completely devoid of the information I wanted.

The World's Greatest Programmer dons his pointy hat with the stars and moon on it, bows, & disappears into the muddy mist with a distinct ploink sound.

The HD movie rant

TEMPORAL RESOLUTION

SONY showed their 4K projector at the C-4 sports show. Most exciting: NHK 3-D using circular polarization (totally passive) glasses.

Using circular polarization allows the viewer to tilt his head without introducing crosstalk, which happens with LINEAR POLARIZED 3-D GLASSES.

you can tell if glasses have circular polarization by looking at a key or a coin, if the reflection is deep blue, its circular, because the reflection of a corkscrew cannot fit the original path, reflections are blocked. Most later CRT monitors have an anti-reflective layer that uses a circular polarized layer. Thats why you see a light bulb refelcted in blue on some monitors.

Circular polarizer is manufactured by combining a linear polarizer with a quarter-wave layer. Many people are not aware that polarization is not a filtering process, but rather a re-direction of the photons into a polarized form. you may prove this to yourself by crossing two linear polarizers until you get maximum cancellation. then introduce between them a shape cut from polarizer, oriented about half way between the two outer polarizers. Photons within a 45 degree window are redirected into polarized orbits, which are 90 degrees out of phase with the polarizer on the other side, but when they hit the middle polarizer, they are only 45 degrees off, and within the capture range of the iodine molecules, which capture the photons, and swing them into orbits that fit the capture window of the exit polarizer. This is a great classroom demo.

Celebrity Photos.

The "chick line," consisting of extremely hot local girls with free passes, reached from the ropes northward past the Sports Book. Maybe 300 in line.

Another 500 or so in the paid admission line, and, most notably, an absolute mob scene at the VIP and table reservation rope.  At least a hundred real VIPs and excessively rich nobodies (a table on the weekend costs at least $1000) vying for attention.

Saturday nights are always an event at PURE, but this was totally over the top. The reason: A bevy of celebs, including Kevin Federline and Britney Spears.

I got in early, but the inside was already packed. Later, in front of the celebrity stage/tables, adoring female fans taking pictures of K-FED while he is taking pictures of me!!! Really.

Of course i am so lame i didn't even drag out the camera. I will try to be a good boy and take more shots.

I DO have lots of new pics for the las vegas club pages, my next editing project is to repair the lost pages from the Spring server crash.  I plan on a redesign of the club section, getting rid of the scripted slide shows, and using the gallery format.

New Galleries Rocky Point Mexico Road Trip

Friday morning i was watering the Cactus and flooded a hole in the ground. This is what gently crawled out:

After the water subsided, she returned to her borrow, excavating the soil that had washed in.

Friday night we drove to Tucson, then arose early Saturday from our AWFUL motel room (it was Motel 6) and drove to Rocky Point.

The entire eight days are in the new BikiniBreak.com galleries now.

It Was the Best of Tables, It was the Worst of Tables

On our most recent visit, we were at the extreme other end. At first i thought my buffet karma had been destroyed by my guests stealing the cute little dishes and other serving pieces from our table, but i noticed the signature stoneware was no longer in use at all, so i guess everyone else's dates stole cutlery too, not a very good commentary on the average Vegas Tourist. The hotels have learned to remove logos from all small objects to reduce their E-bay values.

Perhaps my banishment was the result of a bit of conversation while waiting in line… A tourist had commented on my "dapper" appearance, then made a snide remark about her "$1200 dress." I had to laugh, because XMZ was wearing the infamous red dress from the secret VIP section at KMART. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ah ah a ha ha aha aha aha hah!

At this point, we were hustled away, and seated at the very furthest table from the entrance.

It turned out, however, that this seat was the closest possible seat to the KING CRAB LEGS, and XMZ was immediately transported into a thrall of crustacean cracking consumption.

I took a tour of the offerings and was again impressed by the beauty and high quality of the fresh fruit. Beautiful bing cherries joined the medley of sweet flavor on my plate. The swordfish was a feature of my main plate (got to get my MDR of mercury.)

A Beautiful Century

I swear scriptwriters follow us around and get story ideas.  It's about a couple separating and the problems of dividing the property. Something like me and the former Mrs. Zeke.

Century Theaters operates the cinemas at the Orleans, and they win the award for great presentation.

From the moment you walk in and sit in the comfortable seats and look at the decor of the auditorium, you get a feeling of richness.

The projection (35mm film, not digital) was essentially flawless. Not a scratch on the film, and a dust level approaching zero. OK, yeah, i saw ONE DUST SPECK on the entire film, not at all like the terrible presentation at the CROWN THEATRES NEONOPOLIS, full of scratches and dust.

Cutting a Rug

Saturday was my usual LIGHT plus PURE. Then LIGHT and PURE again Sunday and PURE Tuesday.

Sunday at pure there was a Disco Diva singing live along with the DJ from the celebrity stage. I wish i could tell you her name, but names are not my strong suit.

Besides, name-dropping is very tacky, at least that's what her majesty told me.

Anyhoo... there I was, dancing away, thoroughly engrossed in the lovely ladies on the dance floor, and everyone starts pointing to the stage... 

Really fun to dance to a live singer, but i think it might bother them a bit that i am stealing the attention from them! 

And a little gripe... I have a few haters, but i seem to have the most damage from people that LOVE me. Strange. Three cases in point: 1. outside Light, a fan came up and gave me a high five that was so hard my hand hurt for 5 minutes. 2. A beautiful lady wrapped her arm around my neck in a throttle hold and dragged me to her booth. 3. And a pair of lovely VIPs danced with me, dragging my arms across the sharp top of the plexiglass (perspex for you brits) (methylmethacrylate for you chemists) rail of the celebrity stage at PURE. Hey i love you all, and i love the attention, but please remember i am not a 25 year old football star, be gentle with me. Thanks.

17 years, the chocolate anniversary.

i tried the BUFFALO. It was interesting to eat, not fatty, yet still very tender to cut and chew. The most exciting new taste, shrimp and pasta with a pesto sauce (no tomatoes at all.)

After completely stuffing ourselves with tiny portions of many gourmet items, we overstuffed ourselves on the amazing array of desserts. While other buffets try to impress you with huge portions, the Bellagio Buffet invites you to try several by setting out small portions. We dined very early, and perhaps that is why we saw so many varied dessert treats. Some of the rarer must vanish by the main seatings later in the evening.

Finally, floating on a sugar-induced fog, we waddled out to the atrium to see the summer show. It turned out the crew was putting the finishing touches on a brand new summer show in the atrium. Apparently, the artist that designed the display is well-known for his work in top venues on the east coast, It was unlike anything i have ever seen in vegas. Banyan trees and electric trains. Wow.

Then a stroll (ok we were still waddling, but it was a sweet hand in hand waddle) down the new hallways. The new floors are all-marble, with a new grey and white marble with tiny streaks of pink in them. It must have been formed in the 50's, when pink and gray was the fashion. One of the most beautiful marbles i have ever seen. 

And the new must-see for Vegas sightseers, the WORLD'S LARGEST CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN. a 14 ft flow of three colors of real dipping chocolate. Tonnage. Jean-Philippe Patisserie bet the ranch on this one. When my chocolate dipping friend from Bisbee comes to vegas, this will be on our agenda.

Later, i went back out to PURE in Caesars Palace. i was VERY, VERY early, and it was barely 1PM when i left.

I had the ENTIRE  dance floor to myself... And the attention of the DJ... so i got to show off my stuff. thenm into the PUSSYCAT DOLLS show (oooh! la. la!) and the patio.

This is thae kind of weather that makes the patio at pure such a great venue, and Frank Was pumping on all cylinders.

Wen i left, like i said, about 1 AM, there were still about 300 ppl in the lobby waiting to get in. I have never seen such a crowded tuesday there.

Broken by the CROWN

Oh, the movie was ok, but the stupid cleanup crew was clanking and scratching during the closing credits.

The even walked in front of me, blocking my view of the screen. When i said i should get a ticket to see the show again, the guy (it turned out he was some kind of manager.) Laughed in my face and said something about what a fool i was.  An apology would have been sufficient, but he chose to escalate, and i took my complaint to the front desk, where it continued to escalate until i was thrown to the cement floor, handcuffed, and sat on by some big black guard (boor guy thought he was just doing his job, i guess.) I am not sure what happened after that, i remember i could not get my breath.

I remember being in an elevator with some crying kids... poor little suckers are probably scarred for life.

Me, i escaped the incident with a few cuts and bruises... Its a little hard to breathe, but i don't think any bones were broken.

So, congratulations CROWN THEATRES, i hope you had fun beating up an old man just to prove you have the right to ruin a movie for someone and not even apologize.

This is not the first time this has happened at the exact same theatre, except in the previous occasion, the manager agreed to stop treating audiences so badly.  Cleaning was never started till the credit roll was ended, or there was noone in the auditorium. But i guess the greedy corporate bean counters got back into the act, and they started scheduling movies with no turnaround time between showings.

So, here i sit, wishing i was in the emergency room being treated for my little scratches and bumps, while i spill my guts out to you, dear readers.

Oh well, the wheel of Karma will turn. Is it worth getting a lawyer to guide it?

Can't pop Cherries

After the movie, we took a stroll around the casino, and came across CHERRIES a new nightclub. I would like to report on the beautiful interior design of the club, but, sadly, i couldn't even get past the gate. What a blow to my ego... i have been so swell headed because of the spectacular treatment i get at the clubs on Las Vegas Boulevard. Apparently my status as a DISCO LEGEND only extends a few feet off the strip.

Well the club is 12+ miles distant from my house, a round trip of 25 miles or one gallon of gas. So it's not likely to become a regular stop on my dancing excursions. I will say that its located poolside, with indoor and outdoor dancing spaces, what i saw was beautifully designed.

We all need to get humbled occasionally.

Tuesday night is PURE locals night, and i was luck enough to get there in time for the second PUSSYCAT DOLLS review. the dolls are a great crowd pleaser, i was surprised to see the girls in the audience were enjoying the dance routines as much as the guys.

Server Hosing

My data center installed a new hard drive with a fresh copy of the OS, and mounted the old hard drive as D drive, so moving the files over and restarting went fairly fast.

According to ALEXA, websites i host on the new server are faster than 83% of all websites on Earth.  I am glad to see it back on the air.

Last night  helped a friend get the little stairway on his motorhome to slide up and down again. someone had misdiagnosed the problem as a bad controller box, ($250) but the problem turned out to be that the DC motor that winds it up and down had frozen. The rear bearing had completely dried out, we stuffed a little grease in there, and reassembled the motor. Bingo.

Paris Party Pandemonium

Paris appeared on the pole at the corner of her booth (s, she took over the entire southeast corner of the dance floor) early on, and danced for an adoring throng of fans, there must have been 100 cell phones in the air everytime she appeared.

She was wearing the AMAZING silky emerald green dress. Not the slinky body tight dresses you commonly see in discos, but this shimmery gem that  looked like a single sheet had landed on her shoulder and magically draped itself over her body.

Straight lines in a dress help us compare and appreciate the curves of the wearer. In dancing, i am the fram, the woman is the picture... This same philosophy applies to couture, the best dress is the one that frames the wearer.

Solar BioFuel Yields

I just found out that palm oil has the highest fuel-per-acre solar recovery rate. 408 gallons per acre. Since palms can grow in salt water, there is unlimited potential, especially in oceanic communities.

Unlike most oil plants and ethanol sources, palm oils compete marginally with food market, since palm oils are especially hurtful to the human body.

Sex With Paris Hilton.

In the afternoon, i visited a FRY's electronics megastore, a friend didn't know there was a porno section in the DVD department so i guided him into it, and we spent about a half hour pawing through the titles.

The packaging for the adult materials at FRY's does not have any explicit pictures on the cover, so even if someone mis-filed a movie in the general  areas, or abandoned it on the connector aisle next to all those horny male RJ-45s, the danger of exposing underage humans is reduced.

So, anyhoo, looking at the covers, i came across a DVD of the Paris Hilton Sex tapes. And after long deliberation (i think it was 8 seconds) decided to buy it.

It was about 4:20 when i left the store, and my house is 6 miles removed. 6 miles of vegas rush hour traffic. I traveled by way of the strip (locals always avoid the strip, so the traffic was relatively normal,) but it still took over an hour to get home. An hour of anticipation... Hot little paris sitting on the passenger seat next to me, all dressed up in the FRY's bag. Like the BEATLES song Polethene Pam.

As soon as i got home, i had her out of her outer wrap, and gazed at her body, covered now only by the see-through shrink wrap. I fumbled around several minutes, trying to get my fingers under the thin plastic film. At last i managed to slide one finger underneath, and the top peeled of quickly, but it required time, finesse, and (i must admit) a little sweet talk before the bottom finally came off and i could spread open her package.

I slid my fingers around her and pried and teased until I popped her off the little protrusion inside the DVD case, then stuck my own finger in the now unfilled tiny hole and carried her to the DVD player, placing her gently on the loading tray.

Tangerine - easy to Peel

Although i had briefly stopped at the two clubs a year or so ago, i never really spent time in either.

First, mist a really good DJ... a local radio jock! nice danceable lounge groove, then to TANGERINE!

Tangerine is a smaller club, and is the most popular Wednesday night venue on the center strip. The feature is a live trio playing music for a Burlesque dancer. (tangerine, peel, stripper... you get it!)

The VIP areas were packed, and moving around on the dance floor could be a challenge at times.

Pure Pussycat Dolls.

I was summoned into the purpose built venue just as the show started. If you are a visually oriented heterosexual male, you will never forgive yourself if you come to vegas, and don't see the show.  

After the show i traveled the remainder of the huge PURE venue. Energizing ultramodern dance upstairs... Bubbly humpa-bounce in the main room. 

Special thanks and love to the lovely ladies that graced my sightlines and caressed my fingertips.

Jetting it on.

Since it was an hour till LIGHT opened, i ventured across the street to harrahs CARNIVAL COURT.  Although this outdoor venue has been a starting point a millions of parties on the strip, and a frequent opening for my evenings of dancing, As the Las Vegas Nightclub Scene evolved,i started going out later and later.

The new ownership at harrahs re-vamped the stage lighting and replaced the uneven, sloping floor with a nice new flat sloping floor. Its an outdoor venue, after all.

The live band started their set just as i walked in. Same top-notch sound system, i hear the band nice and clean from my car when i am driving south on the strip.

When i travelled across the street back to the mirage, an entire family of tourists was almost mowed down by full speed traffic going north on Las Vegas Boulevard, the light is unbearably long for most pedestrians, and there is always a long gap in traffic before the wall of steel arrives.

Anybody that thinks pedestrian bridges are waste of money would have changed their position had they been forced to witness last night's near miss.

Jet is the primo Monday Night destination on the strip. This was my first Monday visit, and even going in early found the party was going full tilt boogie.

Let There be LIGHT

I have GOT to get some cards printed with my website address. I gave out several with ANYHOO.COM scribbled in ink on the back of my "secret identity" business cards.

I has occurred to me that there must be more performers/entertainers employed in Las Vegas than in just about any other city. (probably more ELVII also.)

Jessica Alba

The Las Vegas Pussycat Dolls are a spin-off from the LA show of the same name. It's an all girl singing and dancing troupe with beautiful voices, beautiful bodies, and great dancing.

The special guest star was Jessica Alba, and she is even more lovely in person than her photos.

Of course i was dancing right along with them, looking at beautiful ladies is not a substitute for dancing, it is an enhancement.

The Hawaiian Tropic Beauty contest folks had a couple booths roped off, and invited me to dance with the contestants.

I just think women are so  wonderfully designed. I had a fantastic time in PURE, then walked over to BOUNCE the special thursday event at LIGHT in the bellagio. More great music and beautiful women.

Meanwhile i am so broke that i had to tip the valet with an I.O.U.

Garden Report.

This winter i grew a small crop of F2 Broccoli. The seeds were collected last spring, and planted in a seed patch at the south end of the garden. In October, i dug and set a dozen plants in the garden, and gave  18-inch high transplants to friends and family.

The broccoli produced several pounds of beautiful, tasty, broccoli buds and a beautiful second crop of LADYBUGS. A fat, powdery grey aphid follows the wild mustard, also called PEPPERWEED in the southwest, which is the ancestor of all the cole crops; turnips, collards, cabbage, kale, etc. A population of seven spotted ladybugs follows these aphids, and most of the late broccoli plants were allowed to become ladybug food by way of this intermediary.

Aphids are VERY easy to control in the small garden, my selection for next year's broccoli seed was kept relatively free of aphids by washing with hose water and hands. The plant had the most perfectly formed flower head i have ever seen, and i hope to select that trait into my main strain.

Gene Sharing

I like to imagine that i am seeing a few food traits such as slow bolting and thick stems appear in the wild mustard plants. Plants share genes much more easily than animals, because useful (or sometimes dangerous) DNA fragments that arrive via pollen can be incorporated in the seed of completely differing species.

My goal is to incorporate some of the wild mustard traits back into the broccoli and improve the vigor of this critically important human food and vitamin source.

As they say, humans are solar powered. Farmers have practiced solar energy collection since the dawn of agriculture.

I have a few Tomato plants set out. I set out the first wave a day or two before a killing frost (the local TV stations do not consider FROST to be weather, but actually it was my own laziness that killed several of the plants. New plants have been set out, and hopefully ill be able to eat my own tomatoes this summer. Or, i should say, spring. For most gardeners, the secret of a tomato crop is to get the plants very early. It is certainly to get tomatoes in the main heat of the summer, but the amount of required attention becomes too high.

I have a few short internode indeterminate tomatoes on hanging baskets, i think, with automated watering, basket grown tomato vines can provide shade, cooling, and food to humans.  If you only grow one food plant this year, buy a 6- pack of tomato plants and set them out anywhere you have sunlight.

Monday Night at JET

I had a chance to see some very nice stuff on the video ceiling in the main room.  If you are in vegas, JET nightclub is a MUST see... be sure to book your table in advance, they are packed every night they are open.

Solid Dance Weekend

In the process of an emergency move to a new server, the newer vegas material has been trashed... the original photos are still here, but the structure was chomped.

These were javascript slideshows, and, frankly i think automatic slide shows are not bandwidth friendly. The philosophy of my websites is to deliver a superior viewing experience by presenting GALLERY pages, not THUMBNAILS.  

Even though each page can be several megs, the amount of time spent by the visitor scrolling through the gallery can result in less bandwidth than the set it and forget it slideshow, filling the screen with beautiful, high resolution images while the visitor nukes a little load of bread and spreads peanut butter and orange marmalade on it three rooms away.

Back to LIGHT

Although their new club, JET, in the MIRAGE is great, i still prefer the flagship club from the light group, LIGHT. I  just  prefer the smaller venues. And, it seems, the girls are hotter... a very important aspect of any club.

A clean sheet of paper

I bought a book on web and CSS, it better help... my web pages are all so ugly the google ads are for design schools.

Now take that picture and add lots more strings in several dimensions. Although it looks like a knot, every photon is following very specific, yet probalistic paths.

So, since matter is made of photons, the mass of the matter should be equal to the weight of the photons of which it is composed. 

Now, E = M * V^2 so to accelerate a car to 20 MPH takes 4 times the energy as accelerating to 10 MPH. But, if, instead of adding energy by pushing a mass with some force, we released the photons, the photons taken all together would still have the same mass as before, but, being photons, they can only possibly travel at one speed. So we can substitute C for V in the equation. So E = M * C ^2 is not a new equation at all, merely an aknowledgement that matter is composed of photons.
