Islands
Vacationing on an island is how the uber-rich spend their leisure time. Indulging in a relaxing resort-style experience will get even richer with the Floating Pleasure islands concept by Marina Housing, a company based in Espoo, Finland, which specializes in developing floating housing areas and other floating structures. The islands are anchored to the seabed with seaflex rubber cable anchors. The floating islands rise along with the water level, but do not interfere with the water currents owing to their heavy-duty eps-filled concrete platform, which makes the structure very stable. The islands are landscaped with artificial beaches, hills and growing soil for palms and growing other plants. All the islands have a mooring place for six tenders or small boats and islands B and C can even dock a 60-foot yacht for easy accessibility. The floating islands have the potential to become the hottest destination with the uber-rich if it’s actually developed in the future.

Mac App Store
So i’m almost a week late posting this but the Mac App Store opened on Jan.6, while apps were slow to d/l initially, and they still don’t have everything I would want, it’s definitely something I can geek out over 
If you haven’t upgraded ur iLife suite to the 2011 version, you can buy the apps piecemeal on it…plus most popular games (Angry Birds) seem to be on there too…

Andreaz – new music.
check out this young cat i’m working with.
Andrew Avaire Brenyo was born on March 23, 1993 in Asunción, Paraguay. His biological mother
was twenty-one years old, illiterate, and working as a traveling domestic. She wanted to give her son
a chance for a better life and more opportunities than she would be able to provide for him, so she placed him for adoption. Andrew was originally placed in an orphanage, but eventually moved to a foster home as he was malnourished and needed special attention.
Andrew was adopted at six months and he went to the United States with his adopted parents-
Mike and Mimi Brenyo. Upon evaluation, the American medical doctors felt that he would have a
number of educational problems. These problems were not evident until school age. Andrew always
struggled with his school work, but he was successful as his parents tutored him at home in all subjects.
He was also determined to succeed and he put a lot of effort into his schoolwork. Andrew was homeschooled in 6th and 7th grade. During 8th grade he was evaluated and it was determined that he had a minor learning disability-but with his strong work ethic and support from home he continued to experience success.
During junior high and high school, Andrew discovered his love of music; including singing, composing, and recording original songs. He immersed himself in all aspects of music completing short term goals and preparing for long term goals. Andrew attended guitar and piano lessons as well as show choir. He entered a contest (Club Tech Digital Arts Festival) through the Boys and Girls Club of America (BGCA) submitting an R&B song titled “I’m Changing” that he composed and recorded in three hours. He won this international contest placing first out of 219 entries in the music category. Andrew traveled to Minneapolis where he and the other winners in different categories were hosted by Best Buy and Microsoft. At a later date, Andrew was selected the Navy Youth of the Year for the Pacific through the BGCA. This process included first a nomination, then an application and interview process.
Andrew was one of eight teenagers that represented the Yokosuka Teen Center at the Navy Child and Youth Program Conference that was held in Tucson, Arizona. This annual conference is geared to bring to light the latest in Youth Programs around the world. During this conference, Andrew performed original and cover songs. For the Arizona efforts, the Yokosuka Teen Center was awarded a $25,000 grant from the Commander of Navy Installations to expand their music program.
Andrew performed in various venues around Yokosuka Naval Base and at his high school.
Some of the base performances were for: Spanish Diversity Day, a Bali poverty awareness event,
“Month of the Military Child” and “Friendship Day.” During his high school experience, Andrew performed in the high school talent shows, represented the high school at the regional Kanto Plain performance, and traveled to Guam as a representative to the Far East Jazz Festival. He is a member of the high school show choir performing at various events throughout Japan, Madrigal Dinner Theater, and at several school assemblies. Andrew also had the lead in the musical “Back to the 80’s.”
Andrew demonstrates a strong sense of giving back to the community and family. He is involved in outreach programs such as assisting local nationals at functions, feeding the homeless, volunteering at children’s orphanages holiday parties, as well as providing manual labor to local auctions/bazaars for charitable groups. Andrew is also very close to his parents as well as his sister, Katerina, who was adopted from Moscow, Russia at 22 months old. She is moderately to severe mentally challenged. Andrew is kind and gentle with her, and he often assists in her daily care.
Currently, Andrew is demonstrating his music talent on You-tube (www.you tube.com/andreaz16music). Andreaz is working on his upcoming debut.

Jiro Yaguchi
Jiro Yaguchi is a well known and respected tattoo artist from japan currently based in Los Angeles. He used to work out of ROUTES in Little Tokyo, but recently opened his own shop called Onizuka Tattoo, also in the same area.
Besides tattooing several celebrities, he also done stuff for me and my brother.
When you go to the shop you’ll notice a sign in the window – “Bargain hunters, not welcome”, that’s because when you go there, you’re paying for quality, and you’ll be in good hands. Looking forward to getting more done there once I’m back in LA
My tattoo is posted here – Oniki, if you know me then you know which one. My brother’s is here – Shiva, third from right.
