The Very First Lighter Phone SB6309

Although I fully admit to chuckling quite a bit after first seeing this cellphone with a built-in cigarette lighter, I can see some practicality with it. After all, I can’t tell you how many times I’ve heard of my smoking friends losing their lighter. I’ve been asked numerous times if I happen to have a lighter on me, despite that they’re fully aware I don’t smoke. Having a lighter built into your cellphone would come in incredibly handy. After all, your phone is almost always somewhere within reach.....

MOBILE TARIFF WILL COME DOWN, SAYS RAJA

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

Telecom Minister A Raja, who has retained the portfolio he held in the previous UPA government,quoted in an interview that 3G auction will be held in two months and his top priority is to bring down the mobile tariffs to 10 paise a minute for local calls and 25 paise a minute for STD calls.

In India at present local call rates vary from 40 paise to Re 1, and national call rates from Re 1 to Rs 2 a minute.Raja, who got the prestigious Communications and IT Ministry for the second consecutive term, feels there is enough scope for tariffs to come down and the policies followed during his previous stint would help in achieving this.

Besides, lowering the call tariffs auction of spectrum for 3G services and introduction of IT at the lowest level in government to make possible paperless functioning are also on top of his agenda.

The Minister is likely to take charge next week as he, along with his other cabinet colleagues, flew to Chennai this morning to seek their leader’s (Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M Karunanidhi) blessings.

LG Launches DTXTR Tool To Help Parents

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

LG has launched an amusing (and for some, useful) application that enables you to translate over 2000 words teens tend to use when they’re sending text messages to regular English, and the other way around. The tool is called DTXTR and the aim is to let is keep you in the know of what these kids are txting bout these days, xactli.

Frankly, there are a lot of basic words that can’t be converted to ‘teen text’ with the tool yet, but you can always submit a term for inclusion in the glossary. And if you want to test your own mad txt skills, you can do a little quiz on the site to see if you’re up with the times or not.

Yesterday, the NY Times came out with an article on texting, with physicians and psychologists saying the increased usage of SMS by teens leads to “anxiety, distraction in school, falling grades, repetitive stress injury and sleep deprivation”. Just imagine how much more of that you’d see if teens were to use full phrases and actual words in text messages!

An Escape Harness for Skyscrapers - It’s The Rescue Reel!

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

As the 9/11 inferno unfolded on television, one question kept dogging Kevin Stone: Why weren't the people trapped in the World Trade Center able to make their way to safety? "I said to myself, This is crazy," recalls Stone, an orthopedic surgeon and seasoned inventor in San Francisco. "There should be a better way to exit a skyscraper when something like this happens."

Stone found all the existing systems for rescuing people from high places to be flawed or impractical, so he designed a device based on a fishing reel, a simple harness that would lower people steadily from skyscraper heights on a secure length of cord. The Rescue Reel affords people an easy way to engineer their own escape: All users have to do is open a file-drawer-size container and hook a Kevlar cord to a secure object or connection point (such as between a door and its frame). Then they step directly into the one-size-fits-all harness and rappel through an open window up to 100 stories from the ground. No special training is needed, and the entire sequence could take less than a minute.

Stone's major innovation is a centrifugal braking system that automatically controls the rate of descent. The Rescue Reel's cord unwinds from a spool and wraps around a shaft connected to a brake. As the shaft spins, a set of brake pads exerts force on the inner edge of the brake housing, smoothly slowing the user down. Should the automatic brake fail, the device is also equipped with a manual backup brake lever. Descending from 100 stories up takes less than four minutes—about two seconds per story.

Rescue Reel: How It Works: As the cord unwinds, a self-adjusting braking system ensures that the wearer descends at a constant rate Bland Designs
Stone tested a prototype in 2007, and Skala, a company specializing in rope-access systems, has since conducted extensive tests of the device at California's Vallejo Fire Department. It's a significant upgrade from the slow, cumbersome rope systems firefighters usually use for high-floor rescues, says fire-safety consultant Scott Douglass. "It's a lot more automated, and it's easier and more intuitive for the trapped person to use." He thinks it could be used for cliff rescues as well.

Now that testing is complete, Stone is preparing to market the Rescue Reel. A commercial-ready version should be available next year for about $1,500. He foresees lowering the price considerably once he starts mass production, making it practical for building owners who want to give their tenants an escape clause.

Sharp Develops Five-Primary-Color LCD

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

Here's maybe one of the most interesting pieces of news so far from the SID, Sharp's latest 60.5” Five-Primary-Color LCD that reproduces amazing colors that can be perceived by human eyes…

While we don't have any pictures of this beast or have seen it up close, we'll have to take Sharp's announcement for granted and hope for some real feedback from SID attendees.

Sharp Corporation has developed a five-primary-color display that faithfully reproduces the real surface colors that humans are capable of perceiving. A prototype of this display will be exhibited at the international symposium of the Society for Information Display (SID) to be held in San Antonio, Texas, US from May 31 through June 5, 2009.

Demand for displays that can render colors in a manner faithful to the appearances of naturally occurring surface colors or designed colors is growing stronger in fields such as industrial design, digital archiving, network-based remote medical care, and electronic commerce. Thus various efforts to satisfy these requests are intensifying, prompting, for example, the development of natural vision technology.

This five-primary-color display comprises “Multi-Primary-Color Technology” that features special image processing circuitry, in addition to the display panel whose pixel structure is based on five-color filters that add the colors C (cyan) and Y (yellow) to the three colors of R (red), G (green), and B (blue). This combination expands the color gamut (range of reproducible colors) that can be rendered within the color spectrum that humans can discern with the unaided eye, and enables the display to reproduce more than 99% of real surface colors. Nearly all real surface colors can be rendered faithfully, including colors that have been difficult to render using conventional LCD monitors—the color of the sea (emerald blue), brass instruments (golden yellow), and roses (crimson red), for example. As adoption of this technology will enable more efficient use of light energy produced by the backlight, this display will also provide greater energy savings.

In the future, Sharp will be working to further improve the basic performance of this display and making efforts toward its practical application.

Aqua Pulse - underwater heart rate monitor

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

The Aqua Pulse heart rate monitor allows aquatic sports people to keep track of their exertion in a fairly non-intrusive method. The unit slides under your goggle strap and the electrode clips to your ear lobe to measure your pulse. The computer in the Aqua Pulse then speaks your pulse to you via bone conduction so you can continue to train without disruption.

There are different measurement periods and programmes and the rechargeable battery is good for 8 hours of continuous use. AU$249 down under but shop around.

The new Aqua Pulse HRM has been created specifically for swimmers. Its water proof design changes both how the heart rate is sensed and how the heart rate is transmitted to the user. All functions are integrated into one small unit that the user clips on to their goggle strap and rests on their temple.

However, if you want to make using the toilet into a whole new experience, you might be forced to fork out some extra cash. These seats inspired by musical instruments will turn your bathroom usage into a musical experience. At least it’d better since you’re going to pay a whole $169 per seat.

Polaroid Comes back With Instant Printing Digicam

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

If you know what to do when Andre3000 tells you to shake it like a Polaroid picture, then you’re probably well acquainted with the anachronistic instant cameras from as early as the late 40’s. For the younger folks out there, instant cameras have built-in printers and use self-developing films, allowing users to print their pictures seconds after each shot. Polaroid doesn’t make film cameras anymore, but they’ve embraced other modern technologies as well to come up with the Polaroid PoGo, a digital instant camera.

The old instant cameras could print pics on the spot, but you had no way of viewing or editing the pictures prior to printing, an option that’s all too common nowadays in digital cameras. The PoGo combines the best of both worlds, which means you can shoot, preview, re-shoot if needed, edit and then print all from the same device.The PoGo can print up to 15 pictures on a fully charged battery, but you can also transfer your shots to a computer via USB so you can view or print on your PC later.

As you can see, the 5.0 megapixel PoGo is equipped with a 3.0″ LCD screen, where you can preview your photo and edit them if you wish. You can crop, remove red-eye, add borders and even print dates on your photos before you print them. It takes 40 seconds for a picture to be printed on the PoGo - not much different than waiting for a classic Polaroid to develop.

The PoGo prints pictures on a 2″x3″ heat-activated photo paper called Zink (short for Zero Ink). Zink paper is “smudge-proof, water-resistant, fade-resistant and tear-proof” and environment-friendly as well. The PoGo is available at Amazon for $199.95 (USD). Extra sheets of Zink paper are also $12.99 for a pack of 30.

Most change banks just sit on your desk or dresser looking unattractive. They certainly don't stan on their own as unique pieces of furniture. This Coin Bank does, however.

The Coin Bank consists of two pieces of glass pressed together with lots of little pegs between. To use it, simply drop your change in through the slot in the top. It'll bounce its way all the way to the bottom, where it'll stay until you unlock and empty it. It looks cool and would be fun to use as well, as long as you can justify the serious amount of coin this thing will probably set you back.

Vodafone's 'ZooZoo' ad wins Peta award

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

Vodafone has won PETA (People for Ethical Treatment for Animals) India's first Glitter Box awards for its popular 'ZooZoo' advertisement.
The awards are given to businesses that take advantage of humane alternatives to the use of real animals in their advertisements, PETA said in a press release here.
'ZooZoo' is part of the latest Vodafone ad campaign which has replaced the company's 'pug' ad campaign. PETA had raised objections in the past to the use of animals, including a parakeet and a dog in Vodafone's advertisement campaigns.

The 'pug' advertisement was bad news for real life pugs as many viewers purchased pugs and breeders cranked out as many puppies as they could. Late when the fad appeal wore off,many dogs ended up in shelters or were abandoned,the release said.

'ZooZoo' ads are a refreshing change from earlier Vodafone campaigns, says PETA Chief Functionary, Anuradha Sawhney.

"The popularity of this ad campaign proves there are many creative ways to convey a message without using animals.

Animals used in films are often treated as little more than props and many suffer terribly behind the scenes," she said.

Inbox Preview New feature from Google Gmail Lab

There's a new feature in Gmail Labs called Inbox Preview that will actually show you the 10 most recent message headers in your inbox while you're waiting for Gmail to fully load.
Honestly, I'm not sure how useful this feature is, since 90% of the time Gmail loads quickly enough for me that I would have to struggle to read even the first message header before it disappears. But if you have a slower system, maybe you'll find Inbox Preview more helpful.

To enable this feature:

Login to your Gmail account
Go to Setting > Labs
Scroll down to “Inbox Preview” from the list
Select Enable
Save changes

Can we Add Rss Feeds Image button in front of all your blogger labels? the answer is, yes friend now you can add rss feeds button to your each label so that your readers can subscribe to your particular categories only they like the most instead of subscribing for your all blog posts.This is very useful for blogs who have mixed type content with several different categories in there blog.
Now let's see how to add this rss feed button to each blogger label.

Important- You must have installed your label widget in your sidebar before continuing this hack,otherwise you will not find below codes.

Login to Blogger Then Go To Layout > Edit Html > Expand Widgets.

Now search for below codes :-


<b:loop values='data:labels' var='label'>
<li>
<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:label.url'>
<span expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection'><data:label.name/></span>
<b:else/>
<a expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' expr:href='data:label.url'><data:label.name/></a>
</b:if>
<span dir='ltr'/>
</li>
</b:loop>

And replace the above codes with below one :-


<b:loop values='data:labels' var='label'>
<li>

<a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl + &quot;feeds/posts/default/-/&quot; + data:label.name'><img alt='Subscribe' src='http://www.feedburner.com/fb/images/pub/feed-icon16x16.png' style='vertical-align:middle;border:0'/></a> 

<b:if cond='data:blog.url == data:label.url'>
<span expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection'><data:label.name/></span>
<b:else/>
<a expr:dir='data:blog.languageDirection' expr:href='data:label.url'><data:label.name/></a>
</b:if>
<span dir='ltr'/>
</li>
</b:loop>

Now just what i have done is just addded small piece of red code in between the codes of labels.The code simply contains a image of rss feed which i have taken from feedburner site to have no problem in use for everybody and i have linked that image with the rss subscribe url for blogger labels.If you dont like image you can change it with yours.

With the use of this it becomes very easy for your reader to subscribe for only your favorite content instead for all posts.

Can New Search Engine Kumo Outdo Google

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

Code-named 'Kumo,' Microsoft's upgraded and revamped 'Live Search' is set to make its public debut next week at the "D: All Things Digital" conference, according to Digital Daily. The three day event will feature a number of guest speakers, including Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. Microsoft representatives are expected to demonstrate the retooled search engine, which will feature interface changes as well as the incorporation of semantic search technology.

Since Microsoft has been losing market share in search over the past year, challenging Google seems laughable (especially since Google's already stout market share of 64.2-percent is up from last year). But with the new upgrades, Microsoft might do well to set its sights on Yahoo!, although Yahoo!'s not going without a fight. The company has been unveiling changes of its own, including making its search engine more mobile friendly by providing boxes of specific information, rather than merely links to other sites.

In classic fashion, Microsoft has arranged deals with Dell and Lenovo to make Kumo the default search engine on their products, so there may be a built-in bump there. The changes may not result in Kumo challenging Google's dominance, but it could at least inspire Microsoft employees to quit using Google at work.

Drugged dad bites out child's eye

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

A FOUR-YEAR-OLD California boy may be permanently blinded after his father bit out one of his eyes and mutilated the other.
Police told The Bakersfield Californian Angel Vidal Mendoza, 34, appeared to be under the influence of the drug PCP when he attacked the boy on April 28.

They said Mr Mendoza later rolled his wheelchair outside and began hacking at his own legs with an axe.

Angelo Mendoza Junior told police, "My daddy ate my eyes", The Associated Press (AP) reported.

Doctors at Mercy Hospital said it is unclear whether Angelo will regain vision in his right eye.

The boy's mother wasn't home at the time, AP said.

Mr Mendoza is due in court on Thursday charged with mayhem, torture and child cruelty.

Flight simulator site Avsim has been "destroyed" by malicious hackers.

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

The site, which launched in 1996, covered all aspects of flight simulation, although its main focus was on Microsoft's Flight Simulator.
The attack took down the site's two servers and the owners had not established an external backup system.
The site's founder, Tom Allensworth, said that the site would be down for the foreseeable future and was unsure if would ever go back up.
"The method of the hack makes recovery difficult, if not impossible, to recover from," Mr Allensworth said in a statement.
"AVSIM is totally offline at this time and we expect to be so for some time to come. We are not able to predict when we will be back online, if we can come back at all. "

Backlash

The attack has shocked the flight sim community, with hundreds of blogs, posts and tweets. One user on the simflight.com website said that "there's a special place in hell for hackers who pull stunts like this".

Speaking to the BBC, Derek Davis, editor of PC Pilot magazine, said: "It looks like 13 years of hard work on Tom's part could have been wiped out.

"Avsim is an important site, because it services the whole community as a source of community developed terrains, skins, and mods - its contribution has been immeasurable," he said.

Mr Allensworth has set up a temporary forum for Avsim users while the future of the site is decided.

On it, he explained the site's backing-up process, although he did not explain why the firm had no external media storage.

"Some have asked whether or not we had back-ups. Yes, we dutifully backed up our servers every day. Unfortunately, we backed up the servers between our two servers.

"The hacker took out both servers, destroying our ability to use one or the other back-up to remedy the situation."

Mr Davis said he thought the site still had a future: "I'm sure Avsim will rise like a phoenix from the ashes and will be bigger and better than before."

Hindus Protest PS2 Game Released in India

Posted by Wonderful-Tricks

A few weeks ago, it was revealed that some Hindu leaders were offended by a new PS2 game that happened to be the first title developed in India. Hanuman: Boy Warrior raised the ire of some Hindus because it "trivializes" one of the major deities of the Hindi religion. As a result, the offended parties are calling for a worldwide boycott of Sony products.

The protest has been led by Rajan Zed (pictured), president of Universal Society of Hinduism, and it's largely been conducted via email so far. In a press release this week, Zed explained that Sony's officials stated they would look into the issue, but they have yet to actually give a response.

According to Zed, "If nothing was heard by Hindu leaders from Sony by May 21, then all the protesting Hindu groups and leaders would re-evaluate the protest and announce the future course, which might include calling for boycott of Sony products world over by Hindus and other likeminded people and supporters."

Exactly how effective this boycott might be is hard to determine, as it's difficult to determine how many Hindus are truly offended by the game outside of a small set of the community's leaders. That said, some different Hindu organizations have joined the protest on different continents.
