Philippine Azkals: Neil versus Neil

Image
I came across a gorgeous (pun intended) photo of Fulham FC member & Philippine Azkals' goalkeeper Neil Etheridge via a fan Tumblr log . Again, as what I ranted on my previous post, why do fans really exploit these  beautiful men like him , huh? But I was surprised to look at this when I came across a sneak-peek of FIFA '11 by a local sports blog: As a computer scientist and as an enthusiast in computer graphic modelling, I wonder why the 3D designers of the EA Sports game did not  observe the prominent features of this British-Filipino lad from London.  1. A wider pair of shoulders. 2. A bigger set of pecs. 3. A sharper jawline. 4. A rounder cheekbone structure. 5. An upwards spiky hairdo. Why, oh why, these people don't innovate much in imitating at least these important features of this lad over here.

Taking the Game to CNN

An Easter Egg in OpenOffice.org: The StarWars Game Open OpenOffice.org Calc (Spreadsheet) Click on one of the cells. Type =game() and press Enter. The cell will then display "say what?". This will enable something. Click on another cell. Type =game("StarWars") and press Enter. You'll be surprised that a new window will open with a little game: the StarWars game. But if you type again this formula, the cell will return the display "oh no, not again!" To be able to play again, you need to close the file, close OpenOffice.org and the QuickStarter, and then make the same. This game may just kill that boredom of yours working with those spreadsheets.
