Just read that Mike Zito (music artist) is from Nederland, Texas, United States. Nederland? That’s my country! Well, in English its The Netherlands or Holland. In Dutch its ‘Nederland’ or Holland. For all you non-believers, here is a screenshot:
Here is a link to Google Maps.
LCD, right? Most people tend to choose for the more popular one. Are they right, or not? Naturally, like most decisions this is a subjective opinion but nevertheless facts are facts.
We start with LCD’s negative points:
- response times;
- black is *not* black;
- backlight bleeding (most visible in a dark room or at night);
- can’t display HDTV fully/properly due to limited lines;
- dead pixels which can *not* be repared;
- best quality in front of the tv.
Positive:
- cheap;
- brightness;
- good for computer hook-ups;
- design-wise;
- lite weight.
Plasma negative points:
- burn-in remains possible;
- expensive;
- consume more power;
- heavy;
- in sunlight more reflections.
Positive:
- black IS black;
- no quality loss viewing from different angels;
- no response times;
- HDTV can be displayed in 1024i/p.
Conclusion: plasma wins by a long-shot when you want the best quality. Below a 1000 bucks you get the best value when buying a LCD. Presumably that is why most people buy a LCD and take for granted the lack of quality.
Ever heard of rapper Cage? You are missing out. Tight beats and an ill flow make Cage a must-listen. He dropped his latest album “Depart From me” last June. Another release “Movies For The Blind” (produced by Mighty Mi) has been re-released which is extremely dope (i.e., ‘Too Much’, ‘Unlike Tower 1 featuring High & Mighty’s Mr. Eon’).
Cage has been dropping sh*t since late 90’s (i.e., For Your Box, Agent Orange, etc…). Don’t sleep because he is worth a listen.

I assume y’all have heard about Kanye West’s pathetic ‘performance’ at MTV. Let’s just say his album sales are (or is it now ‘were’) down and he needs the doe. Just check out the following song called “Gay Fish” which is about him. Props to South Park for being on point!
Anyway, I was just listening to “Make Her Say” by Kid Cudi. Damn, that’s a real catchy tune + refrain. Common (Sense) and Kanye drop a few lines making this sh*t classic!

It’s been quite a ride. Last +/- seven days a lot of work has been done regarding ‘Search Engine Optimalization’ (=SEO). MusicRemedy’s URL consisted out of capitalization and underscores (_). The first one is not that bad since your keywords gain a bit more attention. However, search engines are not that keen on capitalization or uppercase behaviour. So, this has been removed and re-directed to lowercase (except for pictures/files).
The second one is not that bad either but the best option (according to Google) is hyphen (-). For instance your URL has “britney_spears” in it. A search engine will consider this one word. Therefore you are missing out on traffic. By using a hyphen your url will be “britney-spears” and both words will be recognized as separate.
So take a look for yourself:
Britney Spears (old URL: http://musicremedy.com/b/Britney_Spears/)
Britney Spears (new url: http://musicremedy.com/b/britney-spears/)
You might be thinking, what’s all the commotion about? Does this really matter? Huhhhmm, yes it matters a lot!

Ever heard about privacy on the internet? In real life it’s very common to keep things private but not the internet. Take a look at those social networks (i.e., Facebook, MySpace, etc…) where people are writing and posting their entire lives.
A few years ago W3C started the Platform for Privacy Preferences Project (P3P). This enables Websites to express their privacy practices in a standard format that can be retrieved automatically and interpreted easily by user agents (e.g., browsers). This way you can (dis-)approve any website’s privacy policy which is P3P-compatible. This way you are in control of your own privacy.
MusicRemedy has joined the P3P-initiative by making their privacy policy available in a standard format. You can see for yourself: MusicRemedy P3P-privacy policy (XML-format). You can view these settings the best way using IE (click on ‘safety’/’webpage privacy policy’/’summary’).

I just figured out why lately Alfa Romeo has not been doing that well. It’s because they are champions in designing/building gay-cars! Alfa became the no.1 gay-car in 2007 with ‘Spider’ and in 2009 with its ‘MiTo’. Let’s take a look at the last winner, Alfa MiTo:
I have to admit that Alfa’s MiTo does look a bit gay-ish. The Spider however does not look that bad:
You might be wondering which car the winner was in 2008. You will surely agree with its no.1-spot because its the (drum roll, please…) Fiat 500:
Just read some ‘whatever it is… my brother did it’-gossip on a social network. I found the following hilarious ‘speak your mind’-gifts and thought why prolong the inevitable?
Here’s the first one “It’s my brother’s Fault”: [buy it for just $17,95!]
Here’s the second one, “Blame my brother”: [buy it for just $17,95!]
Last but not least, the third one “Whatever it is… my brother did it”-bumper sticker: [buy it for just $5,50!]
Ohhh wait, I can not let this oldie, but goodie, let slip by. It’s a lovely “You think YOUR brother is annoying?”: [buy it for just $18,95!]
Naturally, you can replace ‘brother’ with ‘sister’. These are also available at the same store. So go ahead and pick your winner!

Nowadays almost every internet-user is known with possible internet hacks, virusses, etc… What to do when you installed (free) software for securing your pc-system which itself is fake? Its main purpose is pretending your system is *not* secure and you have to buy the software for protection. This is currently happening a whole lot. Take a look at the following screenshot:
The question is: what to do to protect yourself?
Never install *any* software which popups itself onto your screen. It doesnot matter whether it looks a lot like any Windows program (see above picture). Don’t believe their so-called claims your pc-system is *not* safe/secure and you have to do something ASAP (ie., buy their pro/full-version).
