from SL tribune post
“Who cares about the percentage of gay people in the US, in the world, in the universe, or on the various fictional planets of the Mormonic imagination?
When ONE citizen of this country is subjected to political tyranny, that’s a betrayal of who we are as Americans.
And the so-called “conservatives” have nothing but contempt for this perspective, because they are actually fascists who hate our country and seek to undermine our Constitution”
I know I haven’t been a commenting on this blog for very long time but I thought I’d update it on my sort of mini addiction to avatar. I mean it has a very clichéd and predictable plot but I can’t help but fall in love with the characters. And on the plus side it’s spoon feeding three very important, political messages to the public a large. Number one that all corporations are greedy and that the world is nothing but the history of greed and power and those that have power seeking more power. Number two all paramilitary organizations that work for corporations are evil a la blackwater. Number three we have become separated from nature and the way you must reconnect with it.

Fifty americans, 15 Canadians, and 10 british are receiving the french legion of honor. As kline a bombarder-navigator was holding out a map a projectile shredded his map narrowly missing him he said “I was very angry – I wasn’t scared – I was angry because they had ripped up my darned map” to the AP. Witmeyer who stormed the beaches on D-day said “it was just like opening the gates of hell, you don’t know whether your going to meet german tanks or artillery shells (that) will take your friends head off.

Introduction
As well as having a commentary on the playstation store update and a weekly what-songs-did-I-like-and-get list I decide to have a weekly article about helpful things. One thing that I noticed that most of the articles that visitors like you came for were info post so I decided to do more:)
Terminal Commands take 1
This is a list Terminal command that I use went I go-to-the-vampire-side called Terminal.
Command: drutil eject tray
What it does/Why I use it: This is very helpful when a disc is stuck in the tray and in the case osx it save the the user from having to restart and press the mouse button to eject the disc
Command: cd -
What it does/Why I use it: This changes to the previous working directory.
Command: lsof -i tcp:[number of port] example: lsof -i tcp:8080
What it does/Why I use it: This finds the process id holding on to a port. Very helpful when finding out if a port is in use.
Command: sudo !!
What it does/Why I use it: Run the last command as root.Useful when you forget to use sudo for a command. “!!” grabs the last run command.
Command:curl -u user:pass -d status=”Tweeting from the shell” http://twitter.com/statuses/update.xml
What it does/Why I use it: Update twitter via curl, I know its not very useful but it is kind of fun to do:)

Another update
and another end to a period of hiatus
Up until the past 3 posts I haven’t update this blog in a long long time.
I will update every week (or try as people that have visited know that I have never keep anything I said for long:) a commentary on the Playstation Store update and what I like (I have a biased for fps so will be primary reporting on demos and such relating to that genre). You can get the list from blog.us.playstation.com so I will post on my felling toward the demos.
Game Demos
Bejeweled 2
This is game as fun as the [mac/pc] game that game out a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. However the core of a puzzle game changes very slowly in comparison to FPS games that change every 6 months. The graphics are updated and the same basic rules apply you have a table of different icons and you have to find two of same type and and move two icons in one move (left,right, up, down using arrow stick and then x to make the change) so that the icon that you move to the two of same type form a horizontal or vertical column in which is eliminated the goal of each level is to element a certain number of icons
Commentary
Puzzle have never appealed to me other that wasting time on the computer when there is something I should be doing and hence there is going to be a lot about Bejeweled. Bejeweled [pc/mac] is the de fact puzzle game. I think it is the best puzzle game I’ve played …on the ps3:)
Games
I will not be reviewing Savage Moon because I am not a fan tower defense games and there was no demo
DLC
GH or RB and some other stuff [I don't have/care for the DLC that came out]
Movies
Swing Vote, Crocodile Dundee, Anastasia are the only movies that I care about. Swing Votes show that we truly should care about voting and that it does matter. Crocodile Dundee is a classic movie of an australian that moves to the big apple, and Anastasia well we all know why I and a lot of peoples loves this film:)
