Celebrate Yankee's Victory Online

Read the story @ Examiner!!!

traveling to New York to see the parade honoring the Bronx
Bombers would be quite cool. However, not all fans will be able to
do that. So as usual, the best place to watch the parade, the
presentation of the trophy, and the rest of the celebration will be online.

Lets start with the obvious; the New York Yankees Website, is the
best entry point to find the action. This is also including any Yankees
official regular season and World Series
merchandise and paraphernalia.

Boston's former Captain Caveman, Johnny Damon, NY Yankees
outfielder was classy enough to pay homage to the the team that
gave him his first World Series ring.

From Sports News out of The Gaea Times;

The Yankees parade 2009 will start at the Battery Place in

Broadway and will continue to the Chambers Street. The

heroes of the day, Derek Jetter, Alex Rodriguez and the rest

of the team will be treated to showers of confetti all along the

route. The procession will lead up to the City Plaza. There, the

team will be presented the key to the city, a great honor, by

Michael R. Bloomberg, the mayor of New York

The Parade Route will be through New York City's Canyon of Heros
and will start tomorrow, Friday the 6th at 1100 AM
You can watch it on MyFox in New York as well as MyFox Online;
both being live.


This should be an intense scene ...for those
who love baseball and fans of N.Y. it should
be the biggest thing online....

Hurricane Ida hits Nicaragua coast

Read this story...Here!

By FILADELFO ALEMAN (AP) – 53 minutes ago

MANAGUA, Nicaragua — Newly born Hurricane Ida ripped into
Nicaragua's Atlantic coast on Thursday after forcing more than 2,000
people to flee their homes and knocking out power to some parts
of the impoverished region.

The hurricane struck land about 75 miles (125 kilometers) north of
Bluefields. It was forecast to weaken while cutting across Honduras
before possibly emerging over open water on Saturday — a still-
tentative path that could carry it near Mexico's resort of Cancun by
midweek.

Ida had winds of 75 mph (120 kph), according to the U.S. National
Hurricane Center, and it was moving to the northwest at 6 mph
(9 kph).

It could dump as much as 20 inches (500 millimeters) of rain in parts
as it crosses eastern Nicaragua, with the risk of flash floods and
mudslides, according to the Miami-based center.

The storm could also raise coastal water levels by as much as 3 feet
(nearly 1 meter) above ground level, with dangerous waves.

There were no immediate reports of deaths, but Nicaragua's National
Civil Defense director Mario Perez said more than 2,000 people had
been evacuated — 800 of those from flimsy, makeshift homes on
Corn Island and nearby Little Corn Island, where strong winds
damaged about 45 homes, toppled trees and knocked out power.
Residents were taken to the port authority building and concrete hotels.

About 2,500 people live on the two islands, which are popular
tourist destinations.

"There is no electricity on the island and telephone is out and there
is little water," Perez said.
About 1,100 people had been evacuated in Bluefields, Perez said.

Heavy rains and winds kept officials from evacuating about 80 people
on Cayos Perla, but authorities said they planned to used speedboats
to get them out.

I just feel humbled by the massive energy that nature can produce..
we should all be living in respect of the awesome powers.

Droid cell phone becomes Motorola MILESTONE

Read on
>product reviews website

The Motorola Droid is to be named the MILESTONE in Germany
when it is released on the O2 network. According to BGR, Germany’s
O2 website released some details on this new handset; the biggest
detail is the €404.20 retail price of the MILESTONE for corporate
customers.



Vodafone will also be getting the Motorola MILESTONE in Europe
and the latest information tells us that the handset comes with pinch
and zoom, something that is not seen on the US version Motorola
Droid, for more information on this, visit Engadget.

We have also learned that the Milestone will come packed with
MOTONAV turn-by-turn directions; this is strange as we would
have assumed that this Android smartphone would have come
with Google’s Maps Navigation.

Does the Motorola Droid / Milestone offer enough for you to
consider getting one, do you think that the handset is a match for
the Apple iPhone 3GS?

The more technology advances the more gadgets that come out.
Maybe we should learn how to use our Minds as much as the
latest gadgets then we could develop devices that increase our
intelligence too.
