Flick The Bug! is a band hailing from Stone Ridge, New York. Their music is hard to place into one genre, but they have been called emo, grindcore, acoustic, screamo and comedy. They, for lack of a better term, call themselves a SillyXcore band.

Their music is reminiscent of Weird Al Yankovic and Stephen Lynch, while still keeping their own style.

History

Flick The Bug! started in 2005 when Kelly Colomban and Cheyenne Regan started recording material just for fun. Next year Shawn Long and his best friend, Alex Wolf, joined the band to complete the line-up. They have recently recorded their debut full length album, My Chemical Lo Mein, Duh!. This album will be released on March 19th, 2007.

Flick The Bug! recently played their first to shows. Both shows were held at The Nostrand Gay Bar. They shared the stage both times with The Beatitude 99.

Trish Choi is the Alias of a popular internet celebrity. Famous for her video rants, blogs, and myspace. While she is not the most popular friend on myspace (See Tila Tequila), she is one of the most.

She was born to Chinese-Vietnamese parents and has 2 sisters and 1 brother. She has noted that she enjoys all types of music and music is her passion, especially Asian music. Little is known about Trish Choi because she chooses to remain mysterious.

Once in a while, Trish Choi posts up surveys about herself in her blogs that tell more about her.

Her Name

Trish Choi has revealed in a blog that her name ws chosen by her because of a famous korean singer, Se7en (Choi Dong Wook). She has a quirky crush on him therefore she chose to take his last name. In 2006, Se7en was seen kissing a girl in a music video for the song LaLaLa, that Trish joked about leaving her "Heart Broken". Then on she has a viewer poll to decide if she should keep using her alias. The week after, she started another crush on yet another korean singer, Whee Sung (Choi Whee Sung). This caused Trish to keep using her fake name, Trish Choi, because Whee Sung has the same lastname as Se7en.

GigaTuesday

Giga Tuesday , February 5,2008 is the date of the largest number of scheduled presidential primaries in American political history. Many pundits expect the winner of these multistate primaries will have a commanding lead to become the 2008 presidential nominee of the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.

Politicians in other states have long felt the positioning of the Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire primary at the start of the nominating process gave those states undue influence. As a result starting in 1988 a number of southern states organized the first Super Tuesday set of multistate primaries. Prior to 2008 some of the very largest states, such as California, New York, Illinois and New Jersey felt their influence on the nominating process would be diminshed if they held their primaries late in the process, hence they decided to hold their 2008 primaries shortly after the 2008 New Hampshire primary.

As of early March 2007, it appeared as many as 20 states would be choosing delegates to either the Republican National Convention or the Democratic National Convention on that date.

Some states that did not schedule their primaries or caucuses on February 5 scheduled them in close proximity, such as Nevada Republicans who scheduled a caucus for February 7, 2008 , hoping to gain added influence. [1]

The massive scale of GigaTuesday is expected to impact the presidential nomination race by forcing lesser known candidates to gain exposure earlier in the campaign, as well as benefiting those candidates able to finance a multistate advertising blitz.

The term "GigaTuesday" was coined by a contributor named "Ironman" to Patrick Ruffini's blog on February 17, 2007. [2].The comparison was to the computer usage of "giga" as a massively large number. The term quickly became widely used by national bloggers and newswriters.[3] [4]
