With influences from “art, history, science, the 80s, cartoons, Where in the World is Carmen San Diego, and of course personal misfortune/insecurity”, Hey Champ rocks it. The band is made up of Saam Hagshenas (vox, guitar, keys), Jon Marks (rhythm, vox, keys), and Pete Dougherty (keys, synths).
I’m digging their music video for Gold Dust Girl. The opening part just reminds me of the rave scene from Matrix Reloaded (after Morpheus addresses Zion, and Neo & Trinity gets jiggy). Anyways, check it out:
By the way, Lupe just recently signed them to his label FNF. For him to pick them up, you know they are headed no other way than up! Here’s Lupe broadcasting Hey Champ’s signing:
Kanye West, co-starring: Rihanna, N.E.R.D, and Lupe Fiasco
Awesome show. I went to the San Jose HP Pavilion one this past Saturday, 4/19th. Too bad I missed most of Lupe’s. Oh well, I guess I just have to roll and see him in a smaller venue.
Anyways, this is a dope show/concert to go to–well worth the money and time. I scored an awesome 4-star VIP tix and sat Front-2, Row-10, Seat-14 right dead-smack center and aisle.

Flickr: Panda12 hours ago So to help these poor souls, to shed some light on the mysteries and myths of Explore, a Group was formed. "The Secrets of Explore". A clearinghouse of info to clear up the nonsense, to spread some fact jelly over fiction bread.
And of course, it has its very own blinky graphic. This artwork might go blinky for the cause as well, but it's also an homage, a bit of a congrats and thank you, to the fine Flickr volunteers who risk their sanity, to tell TruthToExplore(tm). Why pandas, you ask? Why pandas vomiting rainbows?
That's a whole other secret.

hartija - Google Code2008/11/25 Recently I had a client who wanted to improve the printing layout for his web site. I made mini case analysing various web printing techniques and how different web sites site manage "printer friendly" pages.
The Study and analysis of different CSS methods for web printing brought me to a discovery that many important web sites are not optimized for printing, even the kind that can be done with little effort.
To solve this problem I decided to make universal Cascading Style Sheets for web printing by uniting all best CSS printing practises into one.
