Eating Thai with a new hat on your head ?

Why not ? You can do it in rue Caffarelli, Paris III.
















- First you go to # 8, at Axes et Soirs and try a few berets,
bibis, caps and capelines.
- Make your choice.

- Wear your hat and go just a bit farer, to # 18...
















and here you are at Mme Shawn's !

Hold tight your hat, what happens next could bowl you over,
believe me... although I prefer Thao-Ly's thai soups !

Guess who's stealing...

... our pics on the net ?




This guy !

He just feeds his site with our pictures - mostly from Planet Earth Daily Photo
and Flickr, says you can click on them to be redirected to the author's page,

(pretending he's a full time geek) but... nothing !

- No author's credit
- No backlinks

You can follow the whole "affair" on a Flickr discussion started by Rimawa/PEDP.

The guy's also a domains thief, so watch out !
See here & there.

Nigeria - A good Point.

Good news concerning Emeka Asiwe and Jonathan Elendu.

The publishers were arrested late last year for the radical views expressed on
their news sites and have been forced to remain in the country till date against
their will.
They have both incurred extra-budgetary expenses running into millions of naira
as their one-week visit to Nigeria was stretched into months by the SSS.
(more)

We know since early this morning that Nigerian political blogger
Emeka Asiwe (HuHu-OnLine) could finally leave Nigeria
but, at that moment, his
destination was kept secret for safety reasons.

Last update coming now from
Nigerian Curiosity is "Asiwe landed in London at
Heathrow airport this afternoon. He was held up by security due to a tip off from
Nigeria's SSS. Thankfully, he was released and allowed to go on his way".


Another good new is that Jonathan Elendu (ElenduReports) could
recently retrieve his passport
. Hope next step will be a flight back home in Michigan.

On Today's HuHu-OnLine you can read :
- Mr. Asiwe pursues N500Million Damages Against SSS (State Security Service),
as SSS releases seized items, moves to settle out-of-court.
- Mr. Elendu has slammed a N 1 billion suit against the SSS for his illegal arrest,
detention and seizure of his travel papers, laptop and cell phone. Advances have
been made by the SSS to reach a comfortable out-of-court compromise with Mr.
Elendu.
(more on site).

Nice joke from the web... Lol !


Last night, my friend and I were sitting in the living
room and I said to her :
"I never want to live in a vegetative state, dependent
on some machine and fluids from a bottle.
If that ever happens, just pull the plug".

She got up, unplugged the computer, and threw out
my wine.

She's such a bitch...



Hearken ! PPG is 2 Years Old.

Thanks for the flowers, G@tto !

The Orbital Debris or...

... the biggest earth's trash, but it is so beautiful !
Approximately 95% of the objects in these illustrations are orbital debris, not functional
satellites. The dots represent the current location of each item. The orbital debris dots
are scaled according to the image size of the graphic to optimize their visibility and are
not scaled to Earth. These images provide a good visualization of where the greatest
orbital debris populations exist.


1 - LEO images - LEO stands for low Earth orbit and is the region of space within 2,000 km of the Earth's surface.
It is the most concentrated area for orbital debris.

2 - GEO polar images - generated from a vantage point above the north pole, showing the concentrations of objects
in LEO and in the geosynchronous region.


Have a look at some recovered objects from the space and from now on protect your skull !

Some Vitelotte potatoes, for a change.

Originally from Peru and Bolivia, Vitelotte is cultivated in France
since 1850 as a gourmet delicacy. In Germany it also known as
Truffle Potato.
This very rare, high valued and expensive potato variety tastes
as amazing as it looks. It is perfect for boiling, chips and salads.






















Tonight they've been boiled and mashed, adding butter and milk
cream to obtain an excellent purée I'm planning to savour with
a few python
's rounds !

Réservé aux Musicos Parisiens...

... habitant Paris ou environs
(pour raisons de logistique).


CABINE INSONORISÉE en vente.
Excellent état et insonorisation parfaite.

Des amis déménagent à l'étranger et la cabine
représente
une complication supplémentaire,
surtout qu'elle est trop grande pour leur futur
appartement. Ils ont donc décidé de s'en séparer...

Achetée 10,000 €, elle sera revendue 4,000.


Si vous étes musicien, vous savez déjà qu'il
est impossible
de répéter chez-soi sans avoir
de problème avec ses voisins, à moins d'habiter
une maison entourée d'un grand
parc, ce qui est
rare en ville.
