Season 12 Episode 4 - “Canada On Strike” - Terrance & Philip

From South Park Studios: (announced on March 30th, 2008)

This Week on South Park: “Canada on Strike”
The head of the World Canadian Bureau leads the country into a long and painful strike and the responsibility of brokering a settlement rests with the boys.

Boys call Canada

From today’s Comedy Central Press Release:

CANADA TAKES A STAND
IN AN ALL-NEW “SOUTH PARK” ON
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 2 AT 10:00 P.M. ON COMEDY CENTRAL

NEW YORK, March 31, 2008 – Canadians want more money and decide to stage a strike in an all-new episode of “South Park,” entitled, “Canada On Strike!,” premiering on Wednesday, April 2 at 10:00 p.m. (ET/PT) on COMEDY CENTRAL.

The head of the World Canadian Bureau leads the country into a long and painful strike and the responsibility of brokering a settlement rests with the boys. Meanwhile, people from Denmark flock to the U.S. and cross the picket lines to take the place of the striking Canadians. In conflict over whether or not to stand with their countrymen, Terrance and Phillip uncover the truth behind the outrageous cost of the strike.

South Park Season 12 Episode 4 on:

  • iTunes Store – UNCENSORED (available on Saturday – April 5th, 2008)
  • Amazon Unbox (available on Saturday – April 5th, 2008)

South Park Studios and Comedy Central would like to remind you if you are looking for South Park episode, you can get it at iTunes Store, Amazon Unbox, or xBox LIVE instead of downloading the AVI or RM files off torrents from site likes mrtwig.net or southparkfiles.com. Comedy Central is so relieved that mrtwig.net is currently down. Another reminder from the Good Ol’ Comedy Central that asks everyone to stay away from southparkfiles.com, because southparkfiles.com has every single South Park episode made available in one form or another. Yeah, please do not go search for “South Park Torrent” on Google.

Remember downloading TV episodes off torrents is generally frowned upon by the TV networks. It’d be very very very wrong to download South Park episodes off torrent sites such as mrtwig.net where you can find high quality South Park episodes in AVI and RM. Please forget that you can find high quality South Park episode links on the Internet because Comedy Central would like you to purchase them. One final note, Comedy Central thanks you for purchasing South Park DVDs.

South Park: The Imaginationland Trilogy DVD
Dubbed as “Uncensored Director’s Cut”, this DVD would include unaired scenes from the trilogy. Would the DVD set make any different since all of Season Eleven Episodes are available for purchase on iTunes Store and Amazon Unbox. Of course! The DVD is higher quality than the digital download version, and it is not crippled with DRM.

Upgrading to WordPress 2.5

The great folks at WordPress.org have been working hard at new WordPress version. I finally upgraded this blog 37prime.news (http://37prime.com/news/) to version 2.5 about fifteen minutes ago. I was reluctant at first to upgrade the blog since my previous big upgrade killed 37primeBlog database. Don’t know how and why it happened, but it was not pretty. This time I backed up the database using three different methods, just in case.

To my surprise the upgrade from WP 2.3.2 to WP 2.5 was smooth. No hick-ups. I am thankful for that.

Anyway, you can grab WordPress 2.5 at WordPress.org. You can also read more about it here.

p.s. I am planning to upgrade 37primeBlog to WP 2.5 and gradually restore the database from an outdated back-up.

One of Many Reasons to Get FiOS

I’m fortunate enough to find out that FiOS was available in my area. I ordered it and had it installed sometimes in 2007. Currently I have the 15Mbps up and 2Mbps down. I’m want to upgrade to the 15/15 service.

This is one of many reasons to get FiOS, and it actually peaked at 1.8MB/s:

WebKit Achieves 100/100 on Acid3 Test with Flying Colors

The people who develops Opera and WebKit are racing to pass Acid3 test. Both camps have scored 100/100 on Acid3 test. According to both Opera and WebKit camp, even though they scored 100/100, there are still some bug fixing to do.

The WebKit folks announces that WebKit achieves Acid3 100/100 in public build, today.

With r31342 WebKit has become the first publicly available rendering engine to achieve 100/100 on Acid3.

Meanwhile, Opera folks were the first to claim perfect score on Acid3 test using their internal build.

I downloaded WebKit build r31344 and ran Acid3 test on it. The video can be found here (QuickTime Movie 744KB).

WebKit Aims to Pass Acid3 Test

Flurry of “nightly builds” of WebKit were released today, and it appears that the WebKit team is aiming for a perfect score on Acid3 test. I downloaded at least five different WebKit builds today, and the latest one (build 31334) scores 99/100 on Acid3 test (QuickTime Movie 376KB). Can they make the perfect grade? I’m sure they will soon. Apparently an internal build of Opera has passed Acid3 Test.
