Google-News funny

Tags: , , , ,

welcome to a new thing i shall be covering. Since i am an avid reader of the google news, mainly for their tech articles. i do happen to cross amongst other articles that teh picture combination’s are quite funny or misleading. I don’t know what algorithm they use to get the small image with the accompanying article but it is quite humorous.

here’s the first of today’s findings.

I picked these up from some guy off of ebay, I thought they were pretty awesome. the sound from them is much better any headphones i ever had so far. I am keeping these at home. and the crappy logitech ones at work.

random filckr image.

Category: PLAIN

If you ever wanted to pull random flickr images using their API all you need is the following.

<?php
$randpage = rand(1,2);
$userID = “[YOUR USER ID]“;
$apiKey = “[YOUR API KEY]“;
$photosAsXMLURL = “http://api.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.people.getPublicPhotos&api_key={$apiKey}&user_id={$userID}&page={$randpage}”;
$xml = simplexml_load_file($photosAsXMLURL);
$rd = rand(0,100);
$ad = $xml->photos->photo[$rd];
$imageURL = “http://farm”.$ad['farm'].”.static.flickr.com/”.$ad['server'].”/”.$ad['id'].”_”.$ad['secret'].”.jpg”;
$linkURL = “http://www.flickr.com/photos/{$userID}/”.$ad['id'];
echo “<div id=’randomImageFromFlickr’><a href=’$linkURL’target=’_new’><img border=’0′ src=’$imageURL’alt=’{$ad['title']}’/></a></div>”;
?>

Your welcome

Paul Frank Part 2 self preservation society sea foam and burgundy

So my old paul frank glasses i got from bunkeronline.com cracked in the corner. they were still wearable, but they would fly off my face scratching the lenses, and things. so what did i do? i ordered a new set but different colours.

no more the brown and tan, but sea green and burgundy. the colours i originally wanted, but they were sold out of a while back. best thing is i also got a 10% off coupon again, so it was the same price.

isn’t it awesome when things go just right?
