Anti-Aging Show 2008 Coverage

Tagged Under : , , , , , , ,

No I didn’t go to Anti-Aging Show for my skin. Personally, I don’t believe in any of those things.  But professionally it’s a different story.  I was at Anti Aging from Oct 17-19 all 3 full days going from booth to booth speaking vendors on camera and then covering presentations.  As tiring as it was, believe it or not it was lots of fun meeting different people, companies and learning about products.

I should have some sort of montage for you early next week.  Stay tuned

IPod Freezing ITunes when connecting to Mac

Tagged Under : , , ,

I have had IPod Classic for 4 years now and for some reason or another, all of a sudden, when I hook it up to my mac and ITunes launches, it freezes ITunes after few minutes.  I notice that a lot of people ran into this problem but there is no solution to this from what I saw.

It doesn’t make any sense that all of a sudden this will happen? Anyone familiar with this, let me know.

Cricket in Canada

Tagged Under : , , , , , ,

The last time International Cricket came to Canada was in the last century, I believe 1998.  This year for the first time the newly introduced format Twenty20 is being played in King City.  The four teams competing are Canada, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe and Pakistan.  The tournament started yesterday October 10th and finishes on Monday the 13th.  The final two teams have already been decided being Pakistan and Sri Lanka.  Can’t wait to see the final on ARY Digital.

Video: ‘Niagara Falls’

Tagged Under : , , ,

 

A month ago, I drove to Niagara Falls which is not more than an hour drive from Mississauga to get some footage for a demo video that is being created for Niagara Parks commission. It was lot of fun. Took about 2.5 hours to shoot the actual crowd, falls, various tourist locations including the recently opened ‘The Niagara Fury’.  Then I put this together in a matter of an hour for a tight deadline.

Check out the video below which is a montage with a great piece of music.

Hi everyone,

Yea I haven’t been here posting. Past two months have been hectic with work and then move. Although, I should make a habit of logging my daily routines here to keep you up to date, I am guilty of not doing so.  I will however make a vow to update this daily. 

Expect lot of videos and stuff coming up here. Thanks
