Paleontology (XKCD)

Friday, August 8th, 2008

Holy Cupcake! It’s been 15 years?!!! *gasp* My human vessel is getting old.

Alt-text: Dinosaurs totally jumped the ichthyosaur when they got rid of Brontosaurus.
I’ve never watched Jussaric Park 3. The first one was the best IMHO even though it had inconsistencies.
Do you recall the Jurassic Park movies? Did they make you show more interest in [...]

For those who have some time, let me tell you that Kyan, Anya, Christina and I watched Into The Wild yesterday and we were mesmerized. Here’s the plot (courtesy of IMDB):
After graduating from Emory University, top student [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: “Into The Wild”, url: “http://www.noulakaz.net/weblog/2008/07/25/into-the-wild/” });

A promotional trailer for SCI FI Channel’s upcoming prequel movie of Battlestar Galactica; Caprica, has gone live on SCIFI.COM.

It is very different from BSG. There are no space ships battles. It’s a drama, and the set is in the past of BSG but still appears to be futuristic. I look forward to know more about [...]

Monday, July 7th, 2008

*yawn* Good morning people. I’ve just woke up (less than 10 minutes ago) - well, I managed to sleep for like only 2 hours. Hmm..I blame solar flares for my insomnia.
I was greeted by a pictures of Hellboy 2 in my RSS aggregator. My first thought of the day- Why was there a Wraith in [...]

Preserving digital memories

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

Like most (technology-oriented) parents, Christina and I have recorded hours and hours of Digital Video (DV) of Anya and Kyan growing and we’re still doing it now.
Digital Video (DV) requires a lot of space (of the order of 15Gb per hour!) Consequently, we edited the raw footage like mad and discarded all the crap to [...]SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: “Preserving digital memories”, url: “http://www.noulakaz.net/weblog/2008/06/23/preserving-digital-memories/” });

I’ve just finished watching Chak De India for the second time. And I have to say that I love this film!
