    Certain songs won't play over DLNA??

    I like to stream music over DLNA between my phone (HTC Thunderbolt) and my TV (Panasonic Viera ST30). It works great for 95% of my songs, however when I try to play certain tracks something goes wrong and they won't play. As a result my TV goes back to whatever input it was using previously...

    Mass Effect 2: Arrival DLC (Spoilers)

    Beware! Spoilers lie within. It seems this has been out for a few weeks now, but I only heard about it a couple days ago and just played it tonight. Overall I'd give it a 7/10, although the very end is what really saved it and I would give the first 85% of it a 5.5/10. In comparison with...

    Anyone pick up a new lawn mower lately?

    My ~12 year old Craftsman still runs but the handle bar is completely broken, so I think it is time to move on. What I'm looking for is something that a 55+ year old woman could start and use. My mother has been fortunate enough to have me around to mow the lawn since we purchased our...

    The Radio Chick is Back!

    I know some of you guys are from the New York metro area and listened to 92.3 FM back when it was K-Rock/Free FM. If you were a fan of the Radio Chick who did afternoons a couple years ago, you'll remember she was fired in June 2006 when Free FM turned back to K-Rock. She did the morning show...

    AC/DC's New Single!

    This is the best they've had since Thunderstruck off Razor's Edge! Brian Johnson's vocals are as good as they are on Back in Black. This is a big change from Stiff Upper Lip and Ballbreaker. Angus sounds great as usual. I can't wait until October 20th to get the whole album or for their tour...

    Earlier this evening an anonymous user of some stupid college gossip site said something along the lines of, "Hey, I wonder if I can get the school shut down if I say I'm going to shoot 50 people in my second class tomorrow." Someone notified Campus Safety, and I'm sure by now the FBI is on...

    I'm writing a history paper about Tudor Britain, and I thought what I might do if I were stuck back in time, say during the reign of Henry VIII. If I could somehow get my way into court, I think I could make it pretty big as a minstrel/entertainer or poet. After all, I do know the lyrics and...
