Last night, you may have noticed something odd in the background of John McCain's acceptance speech. Roughly a minute into the Arizona senator's remarks, a fancy-looking building with a nicely groomed lawn popped up on the jumbo screen behind him.I remember thinking: What's that? His spread in Sedona? Why would they possibly want to show that? Turns out, it was a photograph of the Walter Reed Middle School in North Hollywood, California: Whoops. An image ...

Clifford Stoll wrote a book 20+ years ago called “The Cuckoo’s Egg”, which was his novel about how he helped track Soviet-backed computer hackers to their source. I bought the book after seeing him interviewed. Watching this man literally JUMP from idea to idea, rocking and moving as if his brain were going so much faster than his mouth or his entire body could keep up with; even that alone was inspiring. And I credit ...

Depois do IDF e do NVision 2008, Mário Nagano finalmente voltou pra casa e trouxe minha muamba, ops, encomenda: uma filmadora Flip Video Ultra. Por menos de 120 dólares na mãe-Amazon, é um modelo portátil que até parece um brinquedo, mas fazia tempo que eu estava tentado por uma - e com tanta gente falando bem, não era um investimento muito arriscado (e eu tava carente de gadgets novos meus, não aqueles que vêm, visitam ...

It may just be a conceptual product at this point, but I can’t imagine that there is any self respecting male that wouldn’t feel just a little cooler when he pulls this gun out. The first reason is that it may be the last time you need a condom for a while, the second is that you are armed with a pistol. You just need to be careful, you don’t want to end up taking ...

I don’t mean to turn into a vlogger with two video post in a row but it makes great filler when I’m too busy to actually write. My kids love making videos and most of the time I just find nothing more than kid silliness on my memory card. Sometimes I catch them being bad which always amazes me that they would record themselves doing something they shouldn’t when they know I will eventually see ...

Apple claims that over 90 percent of the country’s population is within 15 minutes of an Apple retail store, and a population analysis seems to confirm their statement. The location of new stores is carefully analyzed, taking into consideration available spaces, registered Apple product users, population and other demographics. How well do the stores reach out to everyone? Take a look at a Cenus Bureau map of population density overlaid with the location of Apple’s ...

Ever since the release of Windows Vista folks have been asking me about the details of creating custom Windows Pre Installation Environment (Win PE) images. There is some great information on the subject that is available at the TechNet web site, and to the Windows Automated Installation Kit guide. I realize the process can be daunting and so i finally recorded a how to session for creating custom Win PE images. This video demonstrates how ...

This clock totally reminds me of my boyfriend. I swear, he has no EQ (Emotional Quotient) and probably would have failed the marshmallow test when he was young. But I love him anyway, haha! If you’re an extreme chocolate lover and you need help in regulating your chocolate in-take, this would be a fun gadget to have! This stylish retro-modern timepiece is a bit like a cuckoo clock but when its shutters open, on the ...
