The shining star, my shining star Phuong Thuy. Check out her live performances on “Corazon De Melao” and “Mei Fei Se Wu.” Isn’t she blazin’ or what? Keep shakin’ your thang, girl.
Unlike today’s ActionScript hardcore programming, Post Visual uses Flash as a motion tool to deliver their messages and the result is aesthetically beautiful. Check out both The Scandal and The Uninvited to see why they are the Interactive Annual 10 Winners from Communication Arts.
“Nho Mua Thu Ha Noi,” a mesmerizing performance by Hong Nhung. Damn! I miss Vietnam so much.

Another savory dish from uncle 9, Bun Nuoc Leo has a fine depth of flavor from the rich and heavy fermented fish. Obviously, the key element is nuoc leo (broth); therefore, if the broth is too light, too salty, or too smelly, everything will fall apart. As good as uncle 9, of course, his broth is wonderful. It’s delicate, rich, and flavorsome. Bun Nuoc Leo is another delicious vermicelli dish next to Bun Kien Giang and Bun Mam. Even though all three dishes have some sort of Mam, each has a unique flavor of its own. As someone who enjoys exceptional foods, I find all three dishes to be enjoyable.

What are GUI styles?
Click on the links (Dragons, Fruits, Ladies, Tributes) to the right and find out.
Why don’t the graphics associate with the GUIs?
No reason.
Don’t the Dragons look familiar?
Yes! Inspired from Chinese artists in Chinatown.
What do the Ladies have to do with the navigation?
Nothing. Just experimenting with vector graphics.
What do the Fruits have to do with the navigation?
Nothing. Just needed something fresh.
Who are those people on the Tributes GUIs?
Ngoc Lan – One of the greatest Vietnamese singer.
Notorious BIG – One of the greatest rapper.
Alfred Hitchcock – One of the greatest filmmaker.
Trinh Cong Son – One of the greatest Vietnamese songwriter.
2pac Shakur – My all time favorite rapper. Pac was the realist.
“Co nhieu quy vi khang da cho minh cai quyen qua lon khi viet thu cho chung toi… Chung toi thay quy vi di qua xa roi day.” -Nguyen Ngoc Ngan.
Basically, what Nguyen Ngoc Ngan and Thuy Nga production said is that who do you [consumers] think you are? If you don’t like what we put out, go watch Asia, Van Son, Tinh or other productions. We don’t need you to tell us what to do.
What an insult. Are they forgetting the phrase, “customers always right?” Even if the audiences’ suggestions are invalid, they are still suggestions. They can just toss them out and not take them into consideration. They don’t have to publicly humiliating the viewers like that. It’s just inappropriate. What even worse is that Nguyen Cao Ky Duyen just stands there with the smirk on her fake face and notting her head to everything Nguyen Ngoc Ngan said. What would you feel if you were the one wrote the comment?
What is up with the double standards? Thuy Nga production kick you in your nuts with statements similar to above than turn around kiss your ass with the begging of buying their original products. As much as I respect Huynh Anh, Nguyen Hien, and Song Ngoc, I will not support their work through Thuy Nga. So if you haven’t seen Paris by Night 74, save your money for other productions who respect and value their viewers.

A brand spanking new skin design for iLoveNgocLan.com. Isn’t she just zesting?
Nas’s “You Know My Style” is hot. Can’t wait til his album drop.
Beautiful girls with beautiful sounds coming straight from People’s Republic of China, Twelve Girls Band rocks the stages with traditional intruments combining with modern harmonies.
For those (including myself) who use Avant Garde. It’s an interesting history.
