the pad for apple’s iPad

As if you didn’t know this was coming…

HipHandMaids have put together this protective case for Apple’s new iPad which is being sold on Etsy for $30.

The case perfectly named iMaxi is made with a vinyl exterior and a cotton interior. The cases comes in white, red, or white/red. I think I’d be a little scared to go with the red on this one…

Name the new cafe at Seattle University

I think this might be for Seattle University students only, but if you are a student check your email for the latest update from the Lemieux Library and McGoldrick Learning Commons. They are asking you to name our new cafe, which will be serving sandwiches, salads, coffee, tea, soda and other light snack, open next school year.

How fun would it be to name it after a popular television show’s hangout. ie) The Max from Saved By the Bell. The decor would have to look the same too. YES! good idea. y/n? What are some other good ones?

Clements Ribeiro

I must be boring because there are not many Fall 2010 Fashion Week posts this time around. That just means that there’s not a lot that I feel are wearable or at least worthy of being called a favorite. Oh, welcome to London.

Sea World loses trainer to a killer whale :(

Whales used to be one of my favorite sea animals until I heard the story about trainer Dawn Brancheau’s tragic death with her killer whale. On Wednesday afternoon, Dawn was working the “Dine with Shamu” event at Sea World with Telly, a 30-year-old 12,000 pound whale.

“[She] was laying on the platform, massaging the whale, petting it. All of a sudden, it latched on and took her under,” said a witness. “He came up one time out of the water with her in his mouth. That was the last we saw of her because they were running us out of there.” Alarms went off as an emergency crew tried to rescue Dawn.

How ironic… dine w/ Shamu?

Sad news for the whale because this is the third death that Telly has been involved in. Dawn Brancheau had been working with killer whales for sixteen years. I can’t imagine how many kids were traumatized in the event they witnessed that Wednesday.

J. Mendel

I think I’ve discovered why Fall is usually not one of my favorite collections. There’s too much fur going around! And I’ve never been a fan of fur because not only am I against the idea of it, I just don’t like that it clutters everything.

Carrie Prejean’s successor?

Miss Beverly Hills 2010, Lauren Ashley, is igniting the fire of controversial sparks for spewing out her anti-gay comments. I know what you’re thinking, “Not another one…” It’s hard to believe that we were dealing with Carrie not too long ago and now Ashley is taking her statements a little too far. She doesn’t believe in gays and lesbians, and she also thinks they should be “put to death,” as heard on Fox News.

Who is this girl, seriously?

The city of Beverly Hills is pretty embarrassed by her statements though and even though contestants in the pageant are able to pick their cities, the city has rejected her Ashley and said that “she does not represent Beverly Hills in any capacity.”

Meet the Types…or the best type?

Ask a girl the number one thing she looks for in a guy and you will almost always get the response of “a good personality.” It’s pretty obvious that no one wants to date a boring douche bag right? There’s no “type” for a good personality. In fact, that’s a lot of people and it really just depends on your taste in guys.

The other day my friend told me that I typically go for the shy awkward types. I said, “So what?!” because those guys are usually the nice ones…or so I believe. My guy friend said, you should go after guys your comfortable with that are like your friends. But you can’t really date your friends…

In the past few months, I’ve been walking around this school pointing out certain people that are not necessarily people that I like, but people with personality traits that I want to find in a husband. Now that’s a long time away, but a girl has to be prepared. I guess I’m very confused because I haven’t figured out what I want in a boyfriend, but I know what I would want in a husband.

Meet the personality types below: They aren’t the jocks, they aren’t the most popular, they’re definitely not bad boys. They are the dorks. They are super cute and lucky for me there are most of the time overlooked.
