Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day 2010

StarMars — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 17:16:01 +0000

Today is Bubble Wrap’s 50th birthday! The Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day is celebrated annually on the Last Monday of January as stated in Sealed Air’s website, the company that made the joy-inducing plastic wraps.

“Spirit 95″ Radio, a local radio station in Bloomington, Indiana, officially started Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day in 2001 with a number of events to celebrate the anniversary.

Bubble Wrap® (brand name of the Sealed Air product) or air bubble packaging is a pliable transparent plastic material with regularly spaced, protruding air-filled hemispheres (bubbles) that provide cushioning for precious or breakable items. It was created by two engineers, Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes, in 1957. They founded the company Sealed Air Corporation three years later, marking the birth of Bubble Wrap.

Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays

StarMars — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 05:36:08 +0000

A few days ago, I visited many blogs and read many posts and commented on majority of them in the spirit of Christmas. While doing so, I was struck with a question – whether to use Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays. The dilemma stems from the possibility that the blog author is non-Christian and may be offended by such a greeting. As a general rule, I used Happy Holidays unless I saw the word Christmas in any of the posts.

There’s also this article I’ve read somewhere saying that a US law was passed changing the holiday name from Merry Christmas to Happy Holidays. Correct me if I’m wrong because I’m not American. A friend in the US told me that these two greetings are used interchangeably. And so I did a little research. Apparently Happy Holidays is used as a greeting for all winter holidays including Thanksgiving and New Year. That makes Merry Christmas the more appropriate term.

It isn’t really important which greeting you use as long as the true meaning of the season is there – giving, sharing and loving.Read More:

Happy Chinese New Year!

It’s Year of the Ox – my year. I should start doing something and take advantage of the luck this year is supposed to bring me. I should work on things I have planned, else they’ll be thrown up the pile of unfinished businesses. I need to “work hard” to make the most out of this year. That’s the prediction in 2009 for people born in the year of the Ox. Nothing comes cheaply, even luck. Anyway, here’s the rest of the prediction:

Even though it is the year of the OX it can be a mixed year for you, although play your cards right and follow all the advice here along with the annual stars 2009 the year 2009 can be good for wealth, career and general luck but you need to be careful and work hard. Those Ox born in 1971 need to be careful in relationships especially if they are married, spend more time this year with your partner as your potential success for the year can cause you to overlook people that are important and this will cause you problems. Unmarried Ox born in other years can expect new relationships and even rekindle existing ones. Your year will be busy but leave some time for play and make sure you take plenty of rest. Those born in 1961 should be careful when driving or using metal objects.

Your busy lifestyle can cause you stomach problems this year so please take care. I would place a brass Wu Lou beside your bed especially if it is located in the west or north. You should be careful signing contracts this year so make sure you read all the small print and do not let yourself be conned by someone sweet or fast talking. Make sure you apply cures to the northeast to reduce the chances of this happening.

Money can be good for Ox this year although you need to take care not to spend too much. If you are employed, job promotions could be on the cards but you will still need to prove yourself.

Reading predictions like this doesn’t mean I believe it. Besides, the words are too generalized to see what exactly is going to happen. But there’s no harm in believing one. It actually sets guidelines for you to unconsciously follow. Something in your head develops a certain mindset, conditioning your mind to do this and avoid that. That’s what I believe.

Kung Hei Fat Choi everyone!Read More:

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Another year is ahead of me. Time is going too fast. Looking back, I can’t see anything fruitful I’ve accomplished in the past year. Well, not really. First off, I started my beloved Warcraft blog in September which really got me into blogging. It’s fun to see other people reading what you’ve written. It gives you a sense of accomplishment. Second… Meh, I’m just lazy to do things. Either that or I’m just good at start. I realized that I have this trait a long time ago; good at starting things but doesn’t really finish anything.

One of my top priorities this year is this blog. It should be. I have this domain for almost a month now and I haven’t used it extensively. I already have plans for other blogs and yet I haven’t finished my personal blog. It took me a long time to customize the layout and colors because I’m quite picky. I want every detail to my liking. I will try to post regularly.

That’s it for now. GLHF in the new year.Read More:

While everyone is blogging about Pacquiao vs de la Hoya, I’ll talk about Ninjas vs Pirates. December 5 is the annual Day of the Ninja so they win hands down during this time of the year. For the record September 19 is the annual Talk Like a Pirate Day.

As for me, Ninja > Pirate. Just look at this:
