Back in the day a friend of mine and I used to have debates about which series was better, Babylon 5 or Star Trek Deep Space Nine.  I sided with DS9 back then (still do, the dialog on Babylon 5 is pretty awful - good story though).  There used to be a parody comic strip (which has now disappeared from the web) which had various off-shoots like Sevylon 5 (Babylong 5 parody).  If

[spoiler alert] It's been a few weeks since I finished Gears of War: Judgement, but with the end of the semester, and other stuff, it's been not easy to sit down and write a few thoughts about the game ;-) This game is a prequel to the Gears of War series of games that I've played before. This game takes place through flashbacks as each character is called upon to provide testimony for chargers

It's been a couple of months since the release of Delta Rising, the second expansion to Star Trek Online, and I've been playing, slowly but surely, through the content and the reputation XP (while still keeping track of my research reputation).  I'm seeing that this week will see the release of Q's winter wonderland, so before that hits, and I start fighting snowmen, I think it's an opportunity

Ο πειραματικός μάγειρας έχει πάρει ρεπό εδώ και κάτι εβδομάδες, αλλά συνειδητοποίησα πως το τελευταίο μου πείραμα το δημοσίευσα μόνο στο Google+ και αυτό φευγάτο.  Το τελευταίο μου πείραμα λοιπόν, που ήταν πριν περίπου

It's been a long time coming, but RapidWeaver 6.0 is out!  I have to say, I haven't kept up with RapidWeaver as much as I have in previous years because I had gotten my website (club-admiralty) to the point where it was OK. Not too bad, not good enough, but then again not enough time to really mess around with it, so I stuck with RapidWeaver 5.  I've been using the product since version

[spoilers] Over the weekend I had the opportunity to complete Diablo III on my xbox, yay!  I've been looking forward to this game since I heard about it last year, however I only bought the thing this past August when it came out for xbox, the price was right, and it included the Reaper of Souls expansion.  I've been playing it over the weekend ever since I came back from my doctoral

Την περασμένη εβδομάδα μου ήρθε στον νου η σκέψη πως είμαι πια είκοσι χρόνια στην Αμερική και πως τώρα ζω εδώ παραπάνω χρόνια απ’οτι ζούσα στην Ελλάδα.  Λίγο τρελό αν το σκεφτεί κανείς. Στην Ελλάδα ήμουν από λίγο πριν

Ο πειραματικός μάγειρας ήταν σε διακοπές (ή μάλλον σε ρεπό) επειδή η κουζίνα μαστορευόταν εδώ και πολύ καιρό και δεν ήθελα να πειραματιστώ σε ένα μικρό μέρος τις κουζίνας.  Με τα μαστορέματα τέλος (ή τουλάχιστον αρκετά

Well, another one bites the dust, or as would be more apt to say: another one gets bought out!  This weekend I got a note that Yahoo has acquired the SMS replacement called MessageMe and the service will be shutting down to focus on some yahoo specific projects (are they going to reinvigorate Yahoo Messenger?) This closure brings back to the forefront something I've said in the past (maybe

A couple of weekends ago I finished Bioshock Infinite (woot!).  I had begun the game a little before I went off on summer vacation (so there was a big lag between when I started and when I finished), but it wasn't all that difficult to get back back in the groove once I got back from Greece. I have to say that the original Bioshock games left me with a sense of wonder whereas  this game's
