Budda Pears

Checkmate — Mon, 07 Sep 2009 05:20:05 +0000

For Britain’s struggling fruit farmers, things could be about to go even more pear-shaped…

A Chinese farmer has invented baby-shaped pears – and he is planning to export his novel idea over here.

Plucky farmer Gao Xianzhang has created 10,000 of the mini marvels this season and he plans to take the fruits of his labour to the UK and Europe.

Britain could soon see the arrival of the pears, which are shaped like mini buddhas.

If the idea catches on, sales of the mini pears could hit the profits of British farmers who are already struggling to fend off sales of cheaper foreign produce in recession-hit Britain.

Gao spent six years perfecting the intricate baby-shaped pears, carefully crafting each one which grows inside an individual mould.

Despite their hefty cost of £5 each, locals in his home village of Hexia, in Hebia, northern China, have reportedly been snapping them up.

‘People seem to think they are cute or lucky and will buy them as soon as they’re off the tree,’ Gao explained.

Luckily for Gao, he should have few problems getting his quirky shaped fruits past EU officials.

In July, wonky shaped fruit and vegetables such as curvy cucumbers and knobbly carrots returned to supermarket shelves after EU rules restricting the size and shape of 36 types of fruit and vegetables

For the last 20 years, EU-wide marketing standards have encouraged the sale of finest-looking produce for sale in shops.

Game of The Week – Tom Clancy’s Hawk

Viper — Mon, 23 Mar 2009 20:43:04 +0000

I was really setup to not like Tom Clancy’s Hawk for the PC. The original information about the release indicated it would not have a cockpit view and would be 3rd person formatted. Well for PC gamers that does not fly. We recently purchased the game and to my surprise it does have a cockpit view. The game is fast paced and challenging and the user interface is easy to understand. The graphics are over the top. From the on the ground scenery to the explosions during combat it make you say WOW. This game is captivating, fun, and keeps your interest. I’m able to use my new joystick and throttle system along with keeping my in games settings on high. Finally a jet combat game I can really get my head into. This is a definite buy now product.

This little video reminds me of how my class used to react when I was teaching business classes in college years ago. I guess that’s why I left teaching and entered the corporate world where this reaction is normal.

Here is a little example of why Congress never gets to the point. Man this is pretty unbelievable stuff. Not sure what all the facial movements are about either. If you can figure out what he is really talking about you’re a smarter person then I am.
