Summer vacation plans

Planning for your summer vacation? Why not try Tamarindo vacation rentals, I heard it’s a beautiful place to stay. As for us since we cannot afford to travel out of the country maybe we’ll just try an out of town vacation this summer. Boracay is one place that I really loved to visit so I hope we could plan a summer vacation there this year.

By the way I remember i joined an online contest last month where i can win a free trip to Boracay. Oh well, I hope I’ll win on that contest, it’s the only chance for my wish to come true.lol

Pentagon Shooting

On Thursday evening, a gunman walked up to the Pentagon’s entrance and calmly opened fire at point-blank range on Pentagon police officers.

“He just reached in his pocket, pulled out a gun and started shooting” no more than five feet away, Keevill said. “He walked up very cool. He had no real emotion on his face.” The Pentagon officers returned fire with semiautomatic weapons.

John Patrick Bedell, the shooting suspect died hours after being admitted to a hospital in critical condition, authorities said. The officers, wearing ballistic vests, suffered only graze wounds and were taken to a hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Do you know that you can already use your iPhone as a barcode scanner? well yes it is! If you have an iPhone you can now easily check and compare prices of products from one store to another. An iPhone has various applications available that gives the ability to read product barcodes to access more information about the items. The application uses the iPhone’s camera as a barcode scanner and then searches the internet for the best price on that item. Isn’t it great? :)
