J's Chimes: Porn In A Box


    It's been awhile since we'd posted weird stuffs in Japan. And now we have a vending machine that sells something really shocking. Yep, pornographic magazines out in the open. Sometimes I'd wonder would it really be weird if you were caught vending from machines like this. Or maybe ya should wait till the coast is clear before inserting coins and choosing the material that you like? Maybe ya should don a mask for that matter. In any case, it is so easily available that kids could get it too with ease... It's even more surprising that such are allowed to be sold without the complaints of the public...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/07/

Prototypes Plugless Power, according to Earth2Tech, showed the transfer efficiency of 80%. The serial product, as expected, up to 90% of the energy will transfer to its destination.

    Device charging station is quite unusual. It consists of a small column, the transformative power of the electric current in a certain frequency and voltage. On the floor of the garage (since the first time the system is uniquely designed for personal use) underneath the car set a flat "pad", but the car is equipped with a sink the size of a shoebox and weighs about 13 kg.

J's Chimes: Trouble Again...


    The ever so popular ecchi anime To Love Ru is back once again soon with a brand new season. Already, fans are eagerly waiting for it... (Understand-able because of the large amount of fan services given...) In any case, this should continue to follow the manga where it ends off last time. However the OVA does takes much of the popular ecchi sections of the manga already, so I guess season 2 will also follow the rhythm somehow. The manga ends quite abruptly though but hopefully the anime comes to a better conclusion than just to stop in the middle of nowhere without letting fans know what is the fate of Yuki Rito...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/07/

J's Chimes: Anime Eyes For Real...


    Animation at times tends to take things a bit overboard with large bright eyes with alluring eyelids that attract attention. But seriously if this is applied into reality, it does seem pretty weird and scary if I do say so myself...


    Imagine your cat has a priceless expression like this... Although at time Japanese Artworks are often been exaggerated with such facial expressions (Normally with the eyes), sometimes such are accredited by people because it brings out the liveliness of the anime and the character. Some of the many reasons why anime catches the audiences...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/07/

J's Chimes: Sega Classics


    I remembered the time I owned a Sega Megadrive back in my younger days but little did I really notice the commercials that were airing in Japanese Tv and how they would looked like. Sonic the hedgehog was the icon of the console at that time and was a fan of it too. Here's a little video that will bring back some wonderful memories of gaming in the past...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/07/

J's Chimes: Crafting The Star...


    A hectic day for me as yesterday was the launch of the game that many had waited 12 years for it... Fans of Starcraft 2 started queuing up for the launch as early as 7am in the morning just to be the first to grab a copy of it. The queue stretched all the way outside of the Funan IT Mall in Singapore to as far as the neighboring shopping centers.


    Took me 4 hours just to be able to get into the mall and see the booth they've setup in the atrium. They held a couple of matches on stage and lucky draw giveaways which included Razor gitf packs and Steelseries gift packs... The queue is still as crazy inside as they began watching and cheering for the matches.


    Finally it's my turn to grab my copy at the counter. So really excited about this. It's been 5 hours since the start of queuing and now I've really got it. The pacage includes the box set with the game inside, a dog tag, a T-shirt and some miscellaneous advert stuff. Ran to another queue to take the lead writer's autograph and photos just after that.


    Took a photograph with the lead writer; Brian Kindregan of Starcraft 2 who came down all the way from the US just to sign out autographs and stuff... He's really kind and friendly to approach. It's just so cool to have a photo with him...


    Finally it's the announcement of the grand prize draw which includes a trip for 2 to Blizzcon California with return tickets and accommodation. Some lucky winner got it and is up on stage to receive the prize... Darn, I envy him... In any case that's the end of the launch of Starcraft 2, now playing the game like there's no tomorrow...Source URL: https://maryelizabeth-winstead.blogspot.com/2010/07/
