Stewie hates Mac - Family Guy Wallpaper

The Family Guy Wallpaper - Stewie hates Mac.

Download :
Original Size 1440x900 ;
1024x768,1280x1024,1280x960,1440x900

Stewie Griffin hates Mac.
I was wondering, If Stewie has to go on with his plan of world domination, he gotta have a computer with some really deadly features. Would he choose a Mac or PC? I guess he'll probably go for a hi-end server with a custom designed Linux running on it. Good luck Stewie! :)
What would you suggest Stewie to buy?

Family Guy - Chris Griffin Wallpaper

noreply@blogger.com (♫gaurav♫) — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 18:35:00 +0000

The Family Guy Wallpaper featuring Chris Griffin.

Download :
Original Size 2160x1440 ; 1024x768,1280x1024,1280x960,1600x1200,1440x900

Yet Another Family Guy wallpaper.
Chris, like his father is obese, has a low IQ and no common sense. However, various storylines give him idiot savant talents, such as artistic ability, and detailed knowledge of film and TV actors. Occasionally he exhibits unexpected, uncharacteristic insights, such as when he gives Peter and Lois a detailed and articulate lecture on the effects and disadvantages of marijuana.
While usually depicted as naive to the point of blamelessness. When Peter and Lois were having a fist fight, Chris cheered for Peter, telling him to "kick her ass!" Also, in Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story, when Lois and Peter are trying to make out, the children mistake it for a fight and Chris says "I don't know what they're fighting about, but I think Dad's winning. Go Dad!" (wikipedia)

His voice, which has a thick New England accent, is performed by the show's creator and lead writer, Seth MacFarlane.(wikipedia)

One of my favorite quotes :-
"Peter:(about the dinner) Well, Lois, if you must know, I find it shallow and pedantic."

The Blue-Green Wallpaper

Took this shot of a wheat farm on a clear winter day.
Wheat originated in Southwest Asia in the area known as the Fertile Crescent.The cultivation of wheat began to spread beyond the Fertile Crescent during the Neolithic period. By 5,000 years ago, wheat had reached Ethiopia, India, Great Britain, Ireland and Spain. A millennium later it reached China. Now China tops the production list followed by India. Highest per capita consumption (623 kg) is found in Denmark. data source

Worst parents ever...

noreply@blogger.com (♫gaurav♫) — Sat, 01 Mar 2008 07:57:00 +0000

When you were a kid did your parents ever do anything mean to you for their own amusement? Whatever it was, something tells us it wasn't as evil as what Jonathan's (above) family did on Christmas morning, having him unwrap an empty Xbox box with some shirts inside -- while on video, mind you -- and then everyone laughing at him when he got upset and cried over being hoodwinked. For the love of all that is holy in the gadget-loving world, that is so wrong.
Despite the fact his family told Jonathan multiple times in the video, "C'mon, you know we can't afford an Xbox!", the kid's shining example of an older brother (who uploaded the video) claims that they actually did get him the console, and that he'd eventually upload the video of the "real" unwrapping. He never did. Right.

The site(engadget.com) which posted this article has offered to gift Jonathan a brand new X-BOX 360 subject to the condition that he'll 'never let his douchebag family play with it'. Sweet...

One my favorite characters among them is 'The Evil Monkey' from Family Guy. Also features is the car from the supernatural, dharma initiative logo from Lost and Osama from Family Guy. Hiding in their somewhere is our restless Plankton from Spongebob.
Still need to work on the details, when its fully done i'll get it printed on a 24'x16' poster. But before i do that, i have an exam to give on 24th('Theory of Computers').
Have fun

Fog Lifting on Spring Hill

noreply@blogger.com (♫gaurav♫) — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 14:47:00 +0000

From the photoblog of Kathleen Connally

About the photoblog :
"On January 3, 2003, I began this photoblog to visually document the residents, visitors, plants, animals, architecture, landscapes and farm life of Durham Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania (where I live), and nearby areas in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Unless noted, all photos are taken within a ten-mile radius of my home.
This project is my ongoing attempt to become a better photographer. Some images work, some don't -- you're witnessing a permanent work-in-progress! I hope to visually convey the intricacies and joys of rural living and the critical importance of farmland, open space and uncluttered horizons to our wildlife, our watersheds, our food supply, our health and our sense of well-being." - Kathleen Connally

noreply@blogger.com (♫gaurav♫) — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 09:30:00 +0000

The worlds most notorious Bittorrent Site "The Pirate Bay" appears to be down.

Apparently it has been raided by swedish police. the site is one of the most popular bit-torrent trackers on the net. Lets hope its back soon...

Update 3:
Its up again... :)
Looks like all the rumours spreading on the internet were... well just rumours.
Its great to have "The Pirate Bay" back... :)

Update 2:
More than 50 Swedish police executed search warrants and made raids at 10 locations, arresting three people.

"The actions today taken in Sweden serve as a reminder to pirates all over the world that there are no safe harbors for Internet copyright thieves," MPAA Chairman and CEO Dan Glickman said in a statement. "Intellectual property theft is a problem for film industries all over the world and we are glad that the local government in Sweden has helped stop The Pirate Bay from continuing to enable rampant copyright theft on the Internet."

Update 1: Now it seems, according to p2pnet, that the Swedish Police have decided to keep the Pirate Bay servers confiscated during the recent raid. Here's the video of police raiding PirateBay servers...
