2008 Mural

So Happy NEW YEAR everyone! 2008 is over and 2009 has started.

To celebrate the new year Ive made a mural representing some of the important figures, movies, personalities and controversies that happened this year.

We see some of the greats that passed away: Paul Newman, Bernie Mac and Heath Ledger. We see some of the politics great ones in Barack Obamas triumph, Fidel Castro stepping down in Cuba and Ingrid Betancourt being released after being kept hostage in Colombia for over 5 years.
Some of the greatest movies from 2008 WallE, The Dark Knight.
In sports we had some great accompishments in 2008: Michael Phelps winning 8 gold medals in the olympics, Usain Bolt breaking records in Track and Field and of course who can forget the miracle catch of David Tyree in the Super Bowl...
And in music and pop culture, the Jonas Brothers dominated concerts around the world, David Cook was the first ever rocker to win American Idol and Gossip Girl caught the attention of many girls around the globe...

All in all 2008 was a great year, and Im sure 2009 is going to be a better one.

I hope you keep visiting Lankuriosidad every day or at least every week, again, I hope all of you have a Happy New Year!

SNAPSHOTS: Different USBS

Its funny to think that there are a million ways a hard drive can take shape nowadays, thanks to the USBS... I recently found an article where it featured a new USB that kept people from stealing your USB, as seen in the first picture... so I decided to look for several other options that have been developed to use as USB Drives. Some actually seem useful like the Credit Card USBs, other are really stupid... anyways, here is the sampling:

Forgot to tell all our readers that I was going to be on Vacation... I am away in CANCUN with my girlfriend and her family for a week's vacation, but as soon as I come back, I'll get back to blogging, so don't stop visiting...

I had done an expansion project for LANKURIOSIDAD so that this kind of stuff never happened, but I guess some people like writing one piece and thats it...
Maybe later on Ill get more authors... anyways, step brothers review to come soon...

Welcome Praetorian

It is my pleasure to announce our first addition to the writing team:

I present to you:

Lankuriosidad's new reality begins to take shape now.

He is a really good friend of mine with fresh new ideas that will give us a different insight into some really cool stuff, he actually has been the source of several past lankuriosidad posts, so in a way I already owe him.

A good fan of Lankuriosidad now becomes a writer in Lankuriosidad, for me personally, its a dream come true to see other people contributing to the blog... And I hope you all enjoy the posts he haves to offer...

Again, Welcome Praetorian, enjoy the world of blogging.

A year in Headers

Recently a fellow blogger friend of mine (doc) gave me the idea of making a one year anniversary tribute to lankuriosidad besides just a header (stripper bear)...
The idea is to make a collage of pictures of all the headers that I have made in the year...

So here it is for you in almost neo particular order, a year in lankuriosidad Headers:


Feel free to comment anything, and please tell me which one you like the most... thanks...

Get your facts straight... Defending Lankuriosidad

PLAGIARISM.



According to wikipedia:

Plagiarism is the practice of claiming or implying original authorship of (or incorporating material from) someone else's written or creative work, in whole or in part, into one's own without adequate acknowledgement. Unlike cases of forgery, in which the authenticity of the writing, document, or some other kind of object itself is in question, plagiarism is concerned with the issue of false attribution.

According to wadsworth.com

Plagiarism, believe it or not, comes from a Latin verb that means, “to kidnap.” If you plagiarize you’re kidnapping and stealing others’ hard work and intellectual property. It is academic and public dishonesty. You wouldn’t want someone stealing your hard work, intentionally or even unintentionally, would you? Of course not. Still, writers sometimes purposely steal others’ work, and other times writers unintentionally plagiarize because they get confused, have poor notes, are lazy or intellectually unprepared, run out of time, or simply don’t know how to correctly reference sources. There’s a difference between plagiarism, of course, and misuse of sources.

According to encarta.com

pla·gia·rism [ pláyjə rìzzəm ] (plural pla·gia·risms)

noun

Definition:

1. stealing somebody's work or idea: the process of copying another person's idea or written work and claiming it as original

2. something plagiarized: a piece of written work or an idea that somebody has copied and claimed as his or her own

___________________________________________________________________


After reading the three definitions, I think the closest one to confirm I plagiarized from rukini would be the third one, precisely where it says, "stealing somebody's work or idea" maybe the author can assure us that it was his idea to use blogs to rant about the scores of the games, or maybe he can say it was his idea to use smart funny pictures as backgrounds to the soccer scores... but If you have ever seen him use movie covers to mock the lousy play of the opposing team... PLEASE! OH PLEASE tell me, cause then I might be 'Plagiarizing Ideas'.

Talking about plagiarism, my thought would have been that the author AT LEAST would have mentioned on his 'crocs' post that the had gotten the picture elsewhere, let alone the idea... seems I'm not the bad one after all... click on the image for fun...
