So apparently anyone that was using I.E was not able to access my blog for the past few weeks... When I stopped getting so many comments, I just assumed it was my lack of good blog material, untill Miss Morgan, let me know it was just when she used I.E. and then I accessed my blog from Boyfriends computer and low and behold it was NOT pretty...
I spent the entire morning basically on it, and even consulted blog desingers, and it came to one simple thing:
Widget.
A widget I had, the code was making the post appear funny... What's even funnier is that Anna suggested it might be a widget. She is a genius!
Anyways, I am sorry for the inconvience or trouble it has brought anyone. Thank you to those concerned people who FB/Tweeted/Emailed me to let me know it wasn't working and for the help.
Much appreciation, glad I am back to working. Hopefully none of you still experiance problems.
Have a wonderful Saturday!

Selena Gomez is going to launch her new Dream Out Loud line this weekend. The line will be available in Kmart store this Sunday. The Chief Marketing Officer of Dream Out Loud, Robin Creen, told the press,
Last week on We Got Married, YongSeo (Jung Yong Hwa and Seohyun) fans were left in anticipation for the couple’s driving test results.
Well, the results aren’t looking so good.
Last week, both of them had cleared their writing component of the driving test and looked in command when they went for their practical driving lessons.
On this week’s episode, the cute couple took their driving license test and sadly, both failed. In Jung Yong Hwa’s case, he failed at the last parallel parking course and did not finish in time, resulting in a lower score than expected. Seohyun, on the other hand, seemed to be doing fine until she ran over a curb on the corner of her course. Both seemed very flustered.

Here is another hint/clue about the TCU Football Uniforms for the upcoming 2010 Season. We now know the Frogs will have new home and away uniforms, but is there another special alternate uniform in the mix for the Oregon State game?
Patterson hinted that the Frogs could be wearing new duds for the Sept. 4 season opener at Cowboys Stadium. "We've got a couple games -- at least one game, could be two games -- where we've got a chance for a special uniform this year," Patterson said. "Who knows, it may even be the first game."
TCU debuted the Nike Pro Combat uniform that included the grey helmet with thin red striping (supposed to represent blood real Horned Frogs spit as a defense mechanism) last season against Utah and brought them back for the Fiesta Bowl against Boise State. Patterson said the team still has those uniforms, but he seemed to be suggesting that a new uniform could be in the fold for the opener. The Frogs, Patterson said, will also still wear their traditional uniform -- black paints, purple jerseys and purple helmets -- although he said those uniforms have changed "just a little bit."

NEW YORK--MI: Mahasiswa-mahasiswa Indonesia berjaya di kompetisi teknologi pangan internasional di Chicago, Amerika Serikat, dengan tampil sebagai juara I, II dan III dalam acara "10th Institute of Food Techonologists (IFT) Annual Meeting and Food Expo" yang berlangsung pada 17-20 Juli kemarin.
Menurut keterangan dari Konsulat Jenderal RI di Chicago, Kamis, para mahasiswa dari Institut Pertanian Bogor (IPB) melalui tim "Crantz" dinobatkan sebagai Juara I dan tim "Zuper T" sebagai juara II; sementara para mahasiswa Universitas Brawijaya-Malang melalui tim "Arrice" muncul sebagai juara III.
Ketiga tim Indonesia berhasil meraih kejuaraan setelah lolos dalam seleksi babak final pada bulan Mei 2010 lalu untuk kompetisi teknologi pangan internasional kategori negara berkembang.
Pada babak tersebut, mereka menyisihkan 30 tim lainnya yang berasal dari Malaysia, Afrika Selatan dan Indonesia.
Saat kompetisi berlangsung di gedung McCormick Place --yang merupakan pusat pameran terbesar dan terkemuka di Chicago dan Midwest AS-- Tim Crantz yang terdiri dari empat mahasiswa IPB, yaitu Saffiera Karleen, Margaret Octavia, Stefanus, dan Agus Danang Wibowo, menyampaikan karya ilmiah hasil penemuan mereka mengenai makanan sarapan cereal "crantz".
"Crantz", yang terbuat dari singkong, kedelai, dan pisang, mengandung protein dan energi yang tinggi dan dibuat sebagai upaya untuk mengatasi masalah kekurangan energi protein pada anak-anak Indonesia, khususnya di wilayah NTT.
Penemuan tersebut dituangkan dalam karya ilmiah mereka berjudul "Healthy cassava flakes (crantz flakes) from the best local resources with high protein and energy for the bright future children in East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia" .
Juara II, Tim "Zuper T" yang terdiri dari lima mahasiswa IPB, yaitu Zulfahnur, Henni Septiana, Laras Aryandini, Helena Widyasitoresmi, dan Eri Suhesti mempresentasikan hasil penemuan mereka berupa `puff cereal` yang terbuat dari tempe, pisang, dan jagung sebagai makanan jajanan yang sehat dan terjangkau harganya.
Melalui karya ilmiah berjudul "High protein triple mix puffed cereal based on tempe, corn, and banana to produce safe snack food for school-aged children in Indonesia", mereka memperkenalkan `puff cereal` sebagai jajanan sehat pengganti jajanan sekolah yang mengandung bahan-bahan pengawet dan pewarna berbahaya.
Pembimbing Tim Crants dan Zuper T terdiri dari beberapa dosen IPB, yaitu Dr Dahrul Syah, Prof Purwiyatno Hariyadi, dan Dr Ratih Dewanti Hariyadi dan Dr Eko Purnomo, dan Dr Feri Kusnandar.
Sementara itu, Tim Arrice yang meraih juara ke III, terdiri dari tiga mahasiwa Universitas Brawijaya, fakultas Teknologi Pertanian, yaitu Anugerah, Fathy, dan Daniel, menyampaikan hasil penemuan berjudul "Fighting for malnutrition in Indonesia by artificial rice based on cassava, and arrow-root with addition cowpea".
Hasil penemuan mereka itu berupa beras tiruan sebagai pengganti beras yang berasal dari padi --yang merupakan makanan pokok utama masyarakat Indonesia.
Beras tiruan tersebut dibuat dari singkong, garut dan kacang tunggak yang kandungan protein dan mineralnya lebih tinggi dibanding dengan beras dari padi.
Beras tiruan ini diharapkan dapat menjadi pengganti beras untuk mengatasi kekurangan nutrisi.
Tim Arrice mendapat bimbingan dari dosen mereka, yaitu Wenny Bekti Sunarharum.
Penghargaan untuk kemenangan ketiga tim mahasiswa Indonesia itu diserahkan dalam acara khusus yang berlangsung di Grand Ball Room Hotel Hilton, Chicago, yang dihadiri oleh sekitar 1.000 orang, termasuk Konsul Penerangan, Sosial dan Budaya KJRI Chicago, Sylvia Shirley Malinton dan Konsul Muda, Redo Ferdiansyah.
Dalam acara penerimaan penghargaan, para mahasiswa dari ketiga tim itu mengenakan pakaian tradisional Indonesia. Bagi Tim IPB, keikutsertaan merupakan yang ke dua kali. (Ant/OL-9)

Member of the Beat Freaks and The Geminiz, Rino Nakasone has been garnering quite a lot of attention lately for her work with SM Entertainment artists. Just several days ago, her performance of Super Junior’s No Other attracted many video hits from netizens. But that’s not the end of her. She recently made another appearance with yet another SME artist–BoA!
Earlier today, BoA tweeted, “I’m practicing hard for my first comeback performance^^ But, Rino unni and I are wearing the same outfit while dancing^^.” Along with the tweet, BoA posted a picture of herself with the amazing choreographer Rino Nakasone making cute poses at the camera.
In response to this update, fans have said, “BoA unni, you’re really pretty and cute”, “Hurry up and make your comeback”, and “So Rino is involved too? Now, I’m really awaiting your comeback. Practice fighting!”
I’m personally a huge fan of Rino Nakasone so I’m stoked to see what BoA has to offer on her comeback stage! Are you just as excited as well?
Lindsay Lohan is not getting any VIP treatment in prison -- so says her mother, Dina.
Dina -- who visited Lindsay with younger daughter Ali and Lindsay's ex Samanthan Ronson on Thursday -- slammed reports that the 24-year-old actress is enjoying any perks behind bars.
"She doesn't have cell phone privileges, that's absurd," Dina, 47, told Radaronline. "She doesn't even have a pillow to sleep on."

But LeBlanc has a big secret bottled up. "I dyed my hair the whole time on Friends," he admitted Thursday at a Television Critics' Panel in Beverly Hills for his new Showtime series Episodes.

NBCSports.com released their College Football pre-season top 25 today. NBC has the Horned Frogs at the #3 spot which I believe is this highest pre-season ranking TCU has received from any publication to this point. I expect a pre-season top 10 ranking for the Frogs this season, but I really didn’t expect many to have them higher than the five spot.
3. TCU
Offensive: TCU’s football brand is synonymous with defense, but let’s not overlook the Horned Frogs’ offense. After all, in case you’ve forgotten, they averaged 38 points per game last season. Senior quarterback Andy Dalton, a fourth-year starter, deserves better than his well-worn reputation as a game-manager. Last season, he displayed big-play ability and had just eight interceptions. He will be working with some of the Mountain West Conference’s best receivers, including big-play junior Antoine Hicks, who scored 10 touchdowns, and senior Jeremy Kerley. Sophomore running back Matthew Tucker looks to build upon an excellent freshman season. Four starters return to the offensive line, including all-conference senior center Jake Kirkpatrick.
Defensive: Six starters return from a unit that led the nation in total defense (allowing just 239.7 yards per game). Unfortunately, none of them are named Jerry Hughes. The Horned Frogs will certainly miss Hughes, the pass-rushing terror who is off to the NFL, but there are nice returning bookends in senior Wayne Daniels and junior Baylon Broughton. TCU also will rely on two linebackers, junior Tank Carder and sophomore Tanner Brock, to cover the field and provide leadership. TCU employs a five-man secondary and three starters return, including senior All-American candidate Tejay Johnson at free safety. Junior cornerback Greg McCoy, the team’s fastest player, is a potential star.
