Adrian Minune A jucat Table pe bani la MAMAIA !!

Adrian Minune, surprins de paparazzi pe plaja, la Mamaia
A jucat table pe bani multi, pazit de bodyguarzi

IMPLICAT. Prins in joc, Minune nu si-a dat seama ca a stat ore in sir in soare

PAZA BUNA. Cand au vazut ca e vorba despre bani multi, bodyguarzii au lasat joaca si s-au asezat alaturi de cantaret

Prudenta. Mai multi curiosi au chibitat partida cantaretului, silindu-i pe baietii cu muschi care-l pazesc sa fie extrem de vigilenti

Aflat zilele acestea la mare, la Mamaia, Adrian Minune (zis, mai nou, Adi de Vito) a dovedit ca, desi ii plac sporturile extreme, ramane totusi un impatimit al celui mai popular joc romanesc: tablele. Daca pana acum manelistul s-a ocupat de micutii sai, carora le-a facut mai toate poftele pe litoral, ba a mers chiar cu ski-jetul pentru a-si plimba fiica, de aceasta data Adi a vrut sa se distreze si el. Asa ca a incins pe plaja de la Rex o partida de table, la care, din cauza manifestarilor zgomotoase ale cantaretului in cazul unui zar bun, s-au adunat numerosi chibiti. Si pentru ca pe masa de joc mai multe hartii albastre isi asteptau castigatorul, bodygarzii, care pana atunci se harjoneau intre ei, au lasat joaca si s-au asezat "in dispozitiv". Ca sa nu fie nicio problema, iar Minune sa nu fie agresat in vreun fel de fanii sai, unul dintre ei s-a asezat pe un scaun, chiar la masuta pe care erau insirate tablele. E greu de spus cine si cat a castigat, pentru ca banii se plimbau destul de des intre cei doi jucatori, insa jocul avea oarece miza cata vreme "o linie" era un milion, iar martul doua milioane.

Jungle Legend 2009

Jungle Legend 2009

Hi! Did you come here from Google looking for troubleshooting information about the PC game Jungle Legend? If so, I just wanted to let you know that I am also getting crashes from the main menu reporting that final.exe had a problem. At least you know you’re not alone on this vast internet.

…Moving right along, tonight’s game is Jungle Legend. It came in a new batch of obscure games from an eBay seller. Whenever a new shipment comes, I always feel like delving right into at least one of them. Unfortunately, this is the one I chose. Unfortunate because it did not work. The game had IncaGold on the packaging which made me feel good because they were responsible for Hot Wired. It looks like an outfit named Flair Software licensed IncaGold’s 3D engine for this title.

The game’s installer shows a graphic for 3D Real Hunting. That threw me off somewhat– was it an ad or an oversight on the part of the installation engineer?

The game’s documentation is quite thorough and straightforward about the storyline– skimming… African rainforests… tribes, ancient race… 4 magic stones, correspond to earth elements like fire and water. Okay, I gather I’m supposed to collect the 4 rocks. It occurs to me I almost have enough to write a MobyGames description, except that I don’t exactly know what the gameplay is like. I assume it’s a 3D game, and an action one at that. But I don’t know if it’s 1st or 3rd-person or perhaps side-scrolling.

Bruce Ivins anthrax case similar to a Law & Order episode?

We were talking about the Bruce Ivins tragedy on the way back from lunch and something about it finally clicked in my brain.

Let me take a step back, I’m a big fan of Law & Order Criminal Intent. I remembered an episode that is eerily similar to this case, the one entitled, A Person of Interest.

In a continuation of a previous episode, the season finale finds Detectives Goren (Vincent D’Onofrio) and Eames (Kathryn Erbe) probing the murder of a former Air Force nurse — but the discovery of anthrax nearby intensifies the search and pushes Goren into the headlines when he is blamed for a suspicious scientist’s suicide.

I’m really surprised people haven’t seen that connection. I found only one reference to it in the comments of this post at HuffPo.

Interesting times we live in…
