What you see above is a little graphic I made for a poster promoting myself and my girlfriend at the time showing off the "celebrity endorsements" we had for our Homecoming King and Queen campaign...The celebrity choices really cracked me up and as from Left to Right:

Roseanne Barr
Judge Judy
Magic Johnson
Jessica Simpson
The Dell Guy
Bill Cosby
Mother Teresa
David Hasselhoff
John McCain
Martha Stewart
Gilbert Gottfried
Gary Coleman

With such a star studded lineup of endorsements it's amazing we didn't win! Haha Four years really go by fast. It's like I predicted John McCain was gonna blow up....the Gilbert Gottfried popularity prediction didn't pan out though.

Langston Hughes - Mother To Son

2009-05-29T22:53:00.000-06:00

Well, son, I'll tell you:
Life for me ain't been no crystal stair.
It's had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I'se been a-climbin' on,
And reachin' landin's,
And turnin' corners,
And sometimes goin' in the dark
Where there ain't been no light.
So, boy, don't you turn back.
Don't you set down on the steps.
'Cause you finds it's kinder hard.
Don't you fall now—
For I'se still goin', honey,
I'se still climbin',
And life for me ain't been no crystal stair.

Happy

2 Corinthians 4:18, originally uploaded by annalina ballerina.

Really cool picture. Brings to mind this C.S. Lewis quote from "The Weight of Glory"

"There are no ordinary people. You have never talked to a mere mortal. Nations, cultures, arts, civilizations--these are mortal, and their life is to ours as the life of a gnat. But it is immortals whom we joke with, work with, marry, snub, and exploit--immortal horrors or everlasting splendours. This does not mean that we are to be perpetually solemn. We must play. But our merriment must be of the kind (and it is, in fact, the merriest kind) which exists between people who have, from the outset, taken each other seriously--no flippancy, no superiority, no presumption. And our charity must be real and costly love, with deep feeling for the sins in spite of which we love the sinners--no mere tolerance, or indulgence which parodies love as flippancy parodies merriment."

The thing about surfing with Killer Whales is...

2009-01-14T14:00:00.001-07:00

It doesn't happen very often mainly because Killer Whales are the most formidable predator in the ocean and could easily eliminate a human being simply by slapping them with their fins or by shooting something out of their blowhole at speeds of up to 80 mph(true story). But that didn't stop this guy from New Zealand....
Look at that!!! amazing! I would have defecated in my wetsuit at least 4 times if it was me in that position. What's worse is that he stayed out there for about 45 minutes after he spotted the whales just hanging out surfing as if nothing were there.Check out what he had to say...

"My outlook is they are big enough and quick enough. If they thought I was a seal, I'd be long gone."

Well he's right in that sense...still CRAZY.

Protests breaking out in Oakland...

2009-01-07T23:28:00.002-07:00

Protests that started out peacefully turned violent in Oakland and honestly...I can't believe this is happening again. Check out some excerpts from an Article which was published by SF Gate as of 21:13 Pacific Time January 7,2009.

Protesters smashed the storefronts of McDonald's as well as stores called Creative African Braids and Oakland Yoon's Pharmacy. Cars along 14th Street were smashed, and some were set ablaze.

A woman walked out of Creative African Braids holding a baby in her arms.

"This is our business," she shouted. "This is our shop. This is what you call a protest?"

Nia Sykes, 24, of San Francisco, a protester who was with the group, said, "I feel like the night is going great. I feel like Oakland should make some noise. This is how we need to fight back.

"It's for the murder of a black male," said Sykes, who is black. The demonstration "is totally appropriate."

Sykes had little sympathy for the owner of Creative African Braids.

Unbeliavable...seriously..."totally appropriate"??? I agree that what happened was horrible and as a Mexican american citizen I KNOW what this prejudice is all about but if breaking into someone's business and endagering the life of children is "totally appropriate" there's something very horrible with the morals of that woman. But it goes on...

"She should be glad she just lost her business and not her life," Sykes said. She added that she did have one worry for the night: "I just hope nobody gets shot or killed."

WHAT?! First she goes on to say that she should consider herself lucky not to have died then goes on to hypocritically say that she hopes nobody gets shot...right after she just said that death should be expected by anyone which happens to have the misfortune of crossing this "protest"'s path.

Nearby, Godhuli Bose stood near her smashed Toyota Corolla, and a protester walked by, repeatedly calling her a misogynist epithet.

"F- your car. F- your car," he said to Bose. Bose, a high school teacher: "I can't afford this."

This is hurtful to the cause..this is not good for anyone. This is just rage. This is anger...I'm not saying that there should be no anger, however manifestations of it like this are completely asinine and ridiculous. You don't end violence with more violence. Ridiculous.

The assassination of Oscar Grant was horrible and it shows that America still has some racism issues, however to use this as an excuse for a couple of misderected and dysfunctional people to go out to the streets and endager people's lives is almost as bad if not AS bad as what happened to Oscar Grant.

I hope this doesn't escalate...

...and I hope I don't have to post stuff of this nature often.

Questions that matter

I saw this a while ago but I forgot to post it....I should have cus now it's all huge. You've probably seen it under "The decline of humanity" or something but I don't see it like that, if anything it proves that humans as time as gone on have been able to grasp increasingly abstract concepts.

Air Yeezy colors

2008-10-08T22:00:00.000-06:00

So After seeing Kanye West on Ellen sporting a Tan version of the Air Yeezy I decided to look on the tubes and see what other colors have been spotted around, what I found was pretty cool.
First off here are the Tan ones, which I'm pretty sure were the ones on the show. These shoes are pretty sweet and I would definitely wear those.
Up next is the "original" color, or what we saw him wear during the Glow in the Dark Tour, up close they look very very cool, and unique for a Nike shoe.Here's the black plain version...I dunno, maybe it's the quality of the picture but these don't look very good at all. With the design of the shoe itself I think you need more of an accent in certain areas that this color just doesn't provide.
These last ones have a whole Marty McFly thing going on, and I LIKE IT.

So there you go, as of right now there seems to be four diffenret color schemes to the Air Yeezys. Can't wait till these bad boys show up in stores.

New Music Videos by Common and Kanye West

2008-10-08T10:03:00.004-06:00

First up is the Neptunes produced track "Universal Mind Control" ...Honestly I think this beat is pretty weak, if it wasn't for Common spitting on the track it would be pretty lame. Hopefully the other songs on Common's upcoming CD are better, but anyway here's the vid.

Best Line: "I hustle for Mathematics.."

So on to the next video, Kanye West's Love Lockdown. I'm not sure about this song, the autotune and the whole not rapping thing I don't like. What I do find cool/weird is that there was Kanye Video premiere on Ellen. Ellen. I mean I guess Kanye is just trying to reach new audiences? or maybe...I dunno. Also the Air Yeezys make an appearance in a new color scheme which looks PRETTY pimp.

Here's a still of the shoe:

Just A Man....

Yesterday I posted the "Just Human" pic showing Obama right before the first debate and I came across this Post in a twitter stream...I'm gonna copy it verbatim, from In the Wake of Breeze:

"A man so hard to read. Who knows anything about him really except what everyone else believes? He will never be forgotten. Its his story. Always wondering if he can feel Anything. Anything at all? What does he think as he gets into bed each night? He is a man. Still. The worst actor with the worst intentions? Well, if you say so. The facts are out right. Maybe. But he is still…….just……. a man."

So true...he's just as human as you and I.

Furthermore you can follow Colbert's Marvel world presidential campaign over at his website here. In it you can read about Colbert's stance on the Skrull secret invasion.

What a lucky bastard, think about it he gets to go on TV and talk crap about the political system while playing some outrageous character, he gets to interview pretty interesting people, he gets awesome paintings of him done...AND ge gets money for it! Seriously when I grow up I want to be a sort of Stephen Colbert character. As a matter of fact I will be...so give me money now.

Simply put this is great story telling. However this is a story that is made greater through the use of animation, there is some truly stunning imagery throughout this whole short that would not have worked in any other medium. Just another example of why I love animation so much, watch it till the end. If you're not moved, you are not human.

Charles Barkley is Crazy

2008-09-17T19:35:00.003-06:00

I first got introduced to this man in the early nineties when my mom had a crush on him, since then he's gone on to say some of the funniest crap any basketball player has ever said. Here's some proof below these are all HIS quotes, no lying here.

"I can be bought. If they paid me enough, I'd work for the Klan."

"You got to believe in yourself. Hell, I believe I'm the best-looking guy in the world and I might be right."

"I don't hate anyone, at least not for more than 48 minutes, barring overtime."

Some sports Guy: "Auburn is a pretty good school. To graduate from there I suppose you really need to work hard and put forth maximum effort."
Charles: "20 pts and 10 rebounds will get you through also!"

Kenny: "There's guys who go over to Europe and play overseas from America, and they dominate!"
Charles: "Those are called 'brothers'

Charles Barkley on his thoughts about retiring before the season: "I remember sitting down with the Rockets and saying, 'Yeah. I'm going to retire.' They said, 'Well, we'll give you $9 million.' And I said, 'You got a pen on you?'"

"Man, everything gets blamed on the Clintons, every single thing in this world. I think Bill Clinton shot JFK, too."

Charles Barkley after seeing a picture of Sam Cassell on the screen: "Phone home."

On North Carolina missing 22 of its last 23 shots in losing to Georgetown in the NCAA tournament last weekend: "Stevie Wonder could make one of 23 shots."

"I'd never buy my girl a watch... she's already got a clock over the stove."

"I always laugh when people ask me about rebounding techniques. I've got a technique. It's called just go get the damn ball."

After an Olympic Dream Team victory over Angola, in which they won 116-48, Charles got into a physical altercation with a member of Angola towards the end of the game, afterwards he says: "Somebody hits me, I'm going to hit him back. Even if it does look like he hasn't eaten in a couple weeks. I thought he was going to pull a spear on me."

HAHAHA Those last two are just so wrong!....But someone said it while the rest of us were just thinking it...right?

"If we are to observe the problem in its totality, I recognize that trying to make Vista seem like anything more than a modern Judas Cradle is a tremendous challenge. This is part of why I am, in general, impressed with what they've managed to accomplish with the 360. Trying to associate Microsoft with "fun" is like trying to associate Satan with aromatherapy."

Ahhhh baby videos what would youtube be like without them?? Nothing that's why. Anyway, this particular one stands out because of the baby's reaction of "That's not funny! It's blood!" hahahaha clearly showing how he hasn't been desensitized to blood by those awful awful videogames.

Finally some classic music, hahaha the overalls are the peak of fashionable.

K, that's it for now...I gotta go watch some more college football

Olympic Hottie: Stephanie Rice

2008-08-16T12:20:00.002-06:00

Let's be honest the Water Cube has been dominated by Michael Phelps, the only two that can even match Phelps in popularity in there are Guo Jingjing and the following beauty 20 year old Australian golden girl Stephanie Rice. Let's be brutally honest here, it's kinda rare to find an attractive olympic swimmer, I mean after all they have to be really strong and what not, so at 5'7" and 148 lbs Stephanie Rice isn't too bad in that sense, but she has a spectacular body and a very nice smile, and her hair is something I really like about her too. Seriously though these pics that I'm about to share with you illustrate my point, specifically the last one which comes from her facebook page and will have you a bit flushed to say the least.

Alright....wait for it....wait for it.

Amazing right? YEEEEESH

Olympic Hottie: Guo Jingjing

2008-08-11T10:47:00.002-06:00

Olympic divers are some of the most graceful athletes you'll see in the Olympics. You won't find many as beautiful as China's "diving diva" Guo Jingjing. This 27 year old beauty stands at just over 5 feet 3 inches and 105 lbs, so she's just a bit taller than an average gymnasts. She's also a multi medal winner having won two golds in Athens, she's expected to do the same in her home turf(as of the writing of this article she already has one)Guo has a very elegant beauty to me, with an enchanting skin tone it's no surprise one of her many corporate sponsorships is Avon. It's amazing how there can be such a wide spectrum of beauty at these games.

Stunning....

2008-08-09T15:37:00.003-06:00

It's not secret that Brazilian women are some of the most beautiful women in the world, it's also no secret that female volleyball players are also some of the most fit athletic women in the world. Combine the two and you get the stunning Jacqueline Carvalho. This 24 year old woman stands at 6'1 and an amazing 154 lbs...talk about amazon-like statistics! Also look at that smile talk about completely enchanting. Now personally I like the whole no make up-hair in a pony tail look. So I'm in awe of the picture of the left but I recognize some of you are not so below I'm gonna post some pics of Jacqueline doing her thing on the court and them some of her a bit more "made up" from a photoshoot. Viva Brazil!

Yeeeeeeesh, look at that first pic! It doesn't get much better than that...but now as promised here are the pics with more "production"

Beijing 2008: Opening Ceremony

2008-08-09T09:39:00.003-06:00

AMAZING! Seriously hats off to Beijing and all of China they had an AMAZING opening ceremony. The massive and flawless choreography of the whole thing had me in awe. The Block wave scene was especially awesome as well as the tai chi sequence, overall though it was simply incredible. The parade of athletes was pretty weird though I dunno in what sort of order they were, but the women who were in front of the nations were simply STUNNING! You know the ones in Red dresses...wow, really really pretty. Another thing I liked about the parade of athletes was the mariachi music that would come on every once in a while, viva mexico!! we're everywhere haha. The US has an impressive 600+ athlete delgation, but some of those guys(especially the basketball players) were just walking around like if they were doing nothing special. Show some pride!! Come on! You're at the friggin' olympics representing your country!! Seriously after that display if you guys don't win a gold medal you deserve to be exiled from the country or something....

The final flame lighting was impressive, Li Ning ran around the edge of the top of the stadium as a virtual scroll of paper unfurled infront of him finally ending in front the huge impressive flame cauldron where he stopped running and lit a little thing that ran the flame from where he was coiling up to light the huge impressive cauldron....oddly enough I can't find a picture of it online, well you've seen it anyway unless if you live under a rock that is...and if you live under a rock I highly doubt you'd have internet access.

Malik Yusef is a poet who is releasing a CD with Kanye's GOOD music later one this year. This particular "song" has a soulful beat consisting mostly of a choir belting out a smooth song; and talks about how the oppression of minorities has influenced the way in which we act, talk, move, dress...everything.

Kevin

2008-06-24T10:57:00.001-06:00

Kevin, originally uploaded by P.S.Zollo.

Riding my bicycle along
Hollywood Boulevard today
I saw him in the crowd - noticed
him instantly. When we reached
each other, I said hi and asked
if he would mind if I took his
photo.
"You want my photo?"
Yeah, I said. There's nobody
like you.
"I know." And he smiled for me
-although his face was
evidently destroyed by something-
and his mouth reconstructed.

I asked him what happened.
"Shot," he said. "Shot in the
face." He motioned a gun
at close range being shot
directly into his face.

Andyou survived that? I asked.
"No," he said with a smile.
"I'm dead."
I apologized for what was
a stupid question, but it
was hard to fathom - gun shot-
close range - into his face. And
he lived.

So what happened? I asked.
Was it an accident, or did
someone mean to shoot you?

"I did it myself. Tried to kill
myself."

You did?
"Yeah."

Where?
"Arizona."

Phoenix?
"Tucson."

So tell me, how did it feel,
after you shot yourself in the
face - and you came to -
and realized you were not
dead?

"Agony. The worst agony
ever."

Man.
"Yeah."

What kind of gun?
"30-aught-six."

I was thunderstruck. I have
met and photographed many
people - who are featured in this
stream - humans who have
overcome amazing
adversity. Lydia, who was
burnt almost to death.
Ray, whose eye was gone.
Margaret, who weighed over
500 pounds.

But this. Man. And yet he
was smiling. I told him what
I thought:

God gives everyone a different
life - and some people get really
really hard lives.

"That's me. Doesn't get
much worse."

Told me he's on the street.
Homeless.

I asked him how bad it was
that he wanted to die.
"Bad. Really bad. The worse
kind."

Are you gonna try again?
"No. I tried once. That's enough."

Man.
Sometimes our lives
seem hard - unbearable even -
but then we meet Kevin.
Or Lydia. Or Ray. And realize
again how lucky we are.
How hard some humans
have it.
Man.

And yet
he smiled. He smiled
for me. This man with his
face blown off - by his own
hand. And here he is -
in the sunshine, listening
to music, smiling.

Don't even know what else
to say about this. Guess
I've already said it.

So there's 973 people in Cuba who downloaded Firefox 3, which I find pretty awesome considering that internet access has only just been recently allowed in Cuba. So good job Cubanos you're beating the crap out of Turkemenistan in terms of using an awesome browser.

Movie Impressions: The Incredible Hulk

2008-06-17T15:31:00.003-06:00

"Ang Lee's Hulk Sad!"

So what's the deal with Ang Lee's HULK? I mean it wasn't that bad......ok maybe It was, but who cares? Now there's a new Hulk and this one's not as bright green nor are his pants purple.

Edward Norton replaces Eric Bana(whom I consider to be much more awesome) as Bruce Banner and Liv Tyler replaces Jennifer Connelly as Betty Ross(Connelly being about 23 times more attractive). These two lead a pretty good cast, and deliver an overall satisfactory performance. Still the star of the movie is the Hulk himself, and truth be told I'm a bit conflicted. I liked Ang Lee's Hulk, or rather Industrial Lights and Magic's Hulk, I thought he was really well animated and his facial expressions in particular were very impressive, who cares about the skin color that resembles Nickelodeon ooze and the purple pants are not realistic, I mean come on, we're talking about a dude that turns green and becomes a giant when he gets angry. But Rhythm and Hue's Hulk(the new one) is really quite good too, he's animated in a very "realistic" way, meaning that he looks like he actually weighs what a giant would and he moves for the most part in a non cartoony way. There's a particular scene that I really liked where you can see Hulk's skin cracked near his shoulder right after you see bullets bounce off his skin that made me the graphics whore inside of me say "COOL!" Overall I'd have to give the nod to Rhythm and Hue's Hulk because unlike the previous movie they decided to show the Hulk for the most part in only dark settings where the sun could not make it look too unreal, and the one scene that was in the daylight was shot with crazy fast camera angles that also hid the "unrealness" of the hulk for the most part.

Now the reason why this film was made was because Ang Lee's lacked action, it was too "cerebral" Is the word most of the internet uses to condescendingly describe the film. In this sene The Incredible Hulk delivers, this film is short on back story and feelings and heavy on action, that's not to say that we don't see how Bruce feels about his situation but the movie doesn't emphazise on that too much. There's even a return of the "HULK SMASH!!!" line which I have to admit occured in a really REALLLY corny way. But the action scenes deliver, we get to see the Hulk take on the army a couple of times in different settings and even take on some sort of cloverfield-monster-only-a-baby-version-lookalike with pretty awesome results. Still at the end of the movie you get the feeling this was just the exposition of the story and there's gonna no doubt be a sequel, a trend I'm starting to really dislike.

Overall, the Incredible Hulk is good. Go see it. But see it in the afternoon when it's not 8 bucks, it's not really worth 8 bucks....Meaning it's not Iron Man Caliber, but then again what is??

My Muxtape!

Hey everyone a muxtape is an online mixtape that you can put together and share with people they can't download 'em but there is a link to amazon so they can buy 'em. Anyway I put together a good "modern" hip hop muxtape together and the link is HERE. Give it a listen.

Movie Impressions: Kung Fu Panda

2008-06-07T22:28:00.002-06:00

Let me set the scene here, I'm super hyped for WALL-E, part of the reason why I wanted to go see Kung Fu Panda is because I KNEW that there would be a trailer for WALL-E, so a couple of weeks ago I decided I was gonna go just for that. But as the release date approached I was beginning to like the idea of an animated martial arts movie, after animation and martial arts are two of my favorite genre of films. So that was my bias coming in, now let's get to the movie itself.

Very Satisfying. The whole movie barely seemed like it was a Dreamworks movie, this is due to the fact that the whole style was taken very seriously and it was SELF CONTAINED. There were no incredibly out of place pop culture references as in others(Shark Tale, Madagascar) which is a breath of fresh air from this animation house. Also there are some moments of awesome cinematography, I'm talking about beautiful almost poetic scenes which give you a sense of inspiration and even make you channel Keanu Reeves as you say "Woah." The opening sequence in particular and the end credits showcase beautiful 2D animation that would make a pretty good Nickelodeon show or something.(and it probably will, mark my words) The best part of the movie by far however were the fight scenes. They were fast, but not chaotic always elegant and you never lost sight of what was going on. The Furious Five scenes in particular are awesome and each different animal moves in a way which is unique to the species, I really liked Crane's movements in particular. The story however is a bit formulaic but it's forgivable due to its short length. Jack Black delivers a pretty good performance but Po as a whole failed to be as lovable and memorable from his dialog as I was hoping he would be.

The movie as a whole is very satisfying and is well worth the money, It's good to see that the talented guys at Dreamworks are getting better at telling stories and at having awesome graphical styles. Hopefully Pixar and these guys keep pushing each other to tell great and unique stories that can only be told through animation.

Wale - The Mixtape About Nothing

2008-06-04T11:55:00.003-06:00

For those of you that don't know Wale is a 23 year old rapper from DC, who just signed with the Mark Ronson backed label Allido(same label as Rhymefest), but more importantly the guy can rap. He's a smart dude, who's not just rapping about guns and crap, I think it's pretty clear that doesn't sell anymore. Anyway, as the name implies this mixtape is indeed inspired by Seinfeld and he even goes on to reference the show in a couple of songs...overall just awesome and even if(especially) if you don't like hip hop you should check it out.

Introducing YouTomb

2008-05-30T16:07:00.002-06:00

Ever looked for a video on youtube that you'd seen before but realized that it had been taken down due to "copyright infringment"?? Chances are it's on YouTomb, YouTomb is a research project by MIT Free culture which tracks down videos which have been taken down for said reason. Not only that but you can see who it was that requested these videos be taken down. Now you can't see the videos on the site, so what's the point? Well as the creator says "YouTomb was conceived to shed light on YouTube's practices, to educate the general public on the relevant copyright issues, and to provide helpful resources to users who have had their videos wrongfully taken down." So you can see exactly which videos NBC or Viacom or the WWE request be taken down. Pretty cool stuff.
