Archer FX is a new TV series by FX network that premiers at September 17. It’s a an animated comedy that features a spy on his quest to capture criminals. The funny thing though is that the spy is often busy with other things that has nothing to do with his duty.
FX network has launched the Archer TV show without building much hype. One source says that it’s actually a marketing tactic on FX’s part to measure the level of engagement of its audience since the show is put right next to its show called “Always Sunny.”
I haven’t watch the series myself, but some of you might have. It will be interesting to see what people opinion will be after all episodes of the Archer FX TV show are aired.

Kanye West interruption video is now one of the most watched videos on Youtube. It seems that many people want to see themselves how the event happened.
As you may have known, Kanye West made the news recently for his interruption in the MTV’s Video Music Award. He interrupted the acceptance speech of the country star Taylor Swift. He basically said that the award belong to Swift should actually go to someone else (Beyonce, to be exact). That interruption, of course, surprised the audience and got a lot of attention from the media.
Later on, Kanye West apologized for that interruption and calling it “rude.”
What’s your opinion about it? One thing for sure is Kanye West interruption video is now becoming popular.

President Obama’s health care speech to a joint session of Congress had been waited by many people across the country. The speech itself detailed the plan the President is about to take for the health care reform. All in all, the plan involves $900 billion with a time span of ten years. It answered many people’s objections of the plan.
Of course, we are still waiting for the public response as a whole. But initial results show that the speech was a success. The support rating for the plan has grown significantly from its position prior to the speech though most Republicans have negative responses.

2012 lottery is a lottery held by the Institute for Human Continuity (IHC). It’s a unique lottery because the 2012 lottery is meant to determine who will survive after the 2012 disaster.
Make no mistake though, this is a promotion for the movie 2012 by Sony. Sony decided to create a viral marketing campaign for the movie by staging a survival ticket by IHC. The 2012 lottery is a simulation of what might actually happen is a global disaster is indeed about to happen and not everybody has the chance to survive.
That’s a scary scenario so we are grateful that this is just fictional. That being said, this kind of campaign tends to ignite people’s curiosity. Do you join the 2012 lottery?

What is the IHC? IHC is an abbreviation of The Institute for Human Continuity. It’s an institute where top scientists and researchers gather to find ways to continue the existence of human civilization past the year 2012.
Is the IHC real? That’s a question you might ask. The answer, fortunately, is no. It’s a fictional institute created as a promotion for the movie 2012. There’s no need to worry that we are in such an imminent danger though it’s up to you what your attitude is regarding the year 2012.
The Institute for Human Continuity has launched a Wiki page where collaboration can be done more easily between the members. But again, is the IHC real? No.

IHC (The Institute for Human Continuity) has launched the IHC Wiki. The IHC Wiki page outlines the current activities done by IHC which are divided into seven sections like Threats to Humanity, Survival Lottery, and Operation: Safe Haven.
But what is IHC? IHC is a promotion for the 2012 movie. It’s a fictional institute in which scientists and researchers try to find ways to continue human existence beyond the year 2012 in which a global catastrophe is predicted. IHC 2012 movie talks exactly about that.
Why 2012? Because that’s the year when the Mayan calendar ended. For unspecified reasons, Mayan calendar didn’t extend beyond the year 2012 which is why it’s predicted that something bad might happen at that time. That’s the base for the IHC 2012 movie and by extension the IHC wiki.

Batman Arkham Asylum Riddler Challenges is an interesting aspect of the Batman Arkham Asylum game released by Rocksteady Studios. The game itself features Batman against its eternal opponent Joker. But the game gives you a different take of Batman than what you encounter in the movies or even the comics. Here Batman is in vulnerable state where he is underprepared and underequipped to fulfill his duties. Joker has a real chance to outsmart him in this game.
With the Batman Arkham Asylum Riddler Challenges, you can gain experience points which you can use for upgrades. The Riddler Challenges are fun and it’s a part of the game that makes it different. This is a smart move from the game designer because it gives an extra dimension to the game.
