Ok, so I dig the new gmail options for themes, but I must say the new default one is kinda ugly and annoying my eyes. Thankfully I was able to switch back to the “classic” version, or the “tree” theme to test out the location settings. I’m kinda curious to see if there are lightning strikes to my desktop on day when there is a thunderstorm in the area.
Themes allow you to customize the look and feel of your Gmail account. To choose a theme, click a thumbnail on the Themes tab of your Settings page.
In some cases, you can also customize by location. Some themes change during the day, and we use the location information you provide to correctly time these changes with your local sunrise, sunset, and/or weather. If you select one of these themes, you’ll see a Country/Region drop-down menu appear. Select the country you want, and then enter a city in the field provided. If you don’t enter a city, or enter an invalid one, we’ll set your location to the capital city of the country you selected. When you’re done, click Save.
His nickname was “Little Mikey,” but I don’t ever recall their being a “Big” one (I guess no one noticed I was fat until later). Mike Brosnan is not a name people are used to seeing in headlines or magazines, but he has a lot to do with the city’s reputation as a hotspot for underground music. Around 2:30 in the morning on Saturday night, he was struck by a Chevy Impala at 48th and Springfield. Less than an hour later, he was pronounced dead at UPenn hospital.
Wow, I remember him from years and years ago, I’ll have to see if I have any old pics from the DisSucks/Rizzo/Stuntmen shows. I hope they lock away the driver forever…
Turkish maritime officials say pirates have commandeered a Turkish chemical tanker off the coast of Yemen.
A statement from the Turkish Maritime Affairs Directorate says the Karagol, a ship bound for India, was hijacked Wednesday, 16 miles (26 kilometers) off the coast of Yemen. It was carrying 4,500 tons of unspecified chemicals.
The statement says 14 Turkish personnel were aboard the tanker.
It is the second ship to be commandeered in the area in the past two weeks. On Oct. 29 Somali pirates hijacked a ship carrying iron ore and demanded a ransom for its return.
I’m posting the twitter song again, cause it makes me smile.
