Audi’s Real Madrid vs Barcelona Ad

Audi put up an ad just in time for El Clasico next Saturday (midnight local time) promoting the A1 series.

It is a damn good advertisement.

This is Art

This video shows Miguel Endara while making a portrait of his father titled “Hero” composed entirely out of ink dots. 3.2 million in total to be exact.

My only question is, how did he count them.

Skydiver Survives Mid-Air Collision And Impact With Ground

This must be the scariest video I’ve seen on YouTube. The guy struggles to get is parachute untangelled for a few thousand feet before hitting the ground but survives to tell the tale.

At 2,500 feet, my jump partner flairs his canopy causing it slow down rapidly. I entangle with it and he cuts away. Unable to fly a ball of nylon effectively, I impact a cornfield breaking my pelvis, back and neck causing instant paralysis. As I lay waiting for help, spinal shock begins to set in paralyzing my diaphragm and breathing on my own becomes impossible. Rescue breathing is performed as I lose consciousness. Paramedics arrive and I’m med-flighted to UW Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin where I awake days later after surgery and begin life as a quadriplegic. It’s taken me four and a half years to be able to watch this video.

AlJazeera Sport Online Streaming

It seems that everybody is joining the online streaming party. After Abu Dhabi Sport made all of the Barclays Premier League matches available online from the beginning of last season, Aljazeera Sport has now the ability to stream all of its 12 channels online.

Not all of the content is available though. As when I was trying to watch last weekends FA Cup matches, I kept getting an error. I hope this gets sorted out and they get the licences for streaming all of their sporting events.

Access is currently free. It was implied that it will be free during November only but it is still free as far as I can tell. There is also an iPad app that make up for iOS’s lack of flash support. But I was able to use AirPlay to watch the game on my TV.

How To Reheat Leftover Pizza

Reheating pizza in a microwave might be the most convenient, but it leaves the pizza soggy and it loses it “fresh out of the oven” feel. Even fresh (and I’m using the term fresh loosely here) that gets delivered in a box, gets soggy due to the steam generated from the pizza itself. So using this method should make your pizza taste fresh every time.

The Samsung Galaxy Nexus is in Kuwait

If you follow me on twitter you would already know that I got my Samsung Galaxy Nexus Android’s latest and greatest  yesterday from Berserk online store.

As expected the device design looks beautiful, and its just marginally heavier than the Samsung Galaxy SII. The device fits comfortably in the hand and it doesn’t feel huge, even with that 4.65″ screen. The 720p screen looks outstanding, you really notice the bump in resolution.

There isn’t much of a size difference in size between the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S2 as most of the increase in screen size came from removing almost all of the bezel in the Galaxy Nexus and getting rid off al the physical face buttons.

The device also feels very snappy, thanks to the vanilla Android experience I guess. Icecream Sandwich is a complete overhaul and is closer to the tablet Android OS than any previous Android release.

What I wasn’t expecting that the Galaxy Nexus came with a noise isolating in-ear headset that looked very good quality and is not Beats By Dre like some HTC phones but its better than most if not all of the standard headsets out there.

I’m looking forward to spending more time with my new little friend.

As I said, I got the phone from Berserk online store. Their website isunder construction but they can be reached via Twitter, Facebook and even Google+. I got the device for KD265

Yves “Jetman” Rossy Flies in Formation

I remember posting about Mr. Rossy last year when he tried out his new “Jet Propelled Wing” or jetpack and reaching speeds of 300 km/h in the descend.

The Jetman just attempted to fly in formation with a couple of L-39C planes for about 10 minutes and succeeded.

I want one.

This Week’s Best Goals

Boateng’s goal was great in one of the best and most entertaining matches I’ve seen in a while.

Android’s Best Keyboard Just Got Better

One of the best features of Android is that if you don’t like anything in the OS you can easily change it. Android’s default keyboard is pretty good, but not as good as SwiftKey X. It is the best keyboard I have ever used on any platform. One of my main gripes with SwiftKey X was that it didn’t support arabic. But with the latest update They included an Arabic keyboard. So now I don’t have to switch to keyboard every time I want to type anything in Arabic.

SwiftKey X is currently on sale on the Android Market and is being sold for $2 (down from $4).
