Alimentación y síndrome premenstrual (SPM)
Ayer estabas bien y hoy estás rabiosa, de mal humor, cansada y con unas ganas enormes de comer chocolate Y además te notas hinchada ¿Te suena?
No es nada raro, les pasa casi a la mitad de las mujeres. Lo que te sucede es que muestras algunos síntomas que aparecen los días previos a la menstruación (entre unos 7 y 10 días antes de la menstruación, es decir, después de la ovulación y antes de la menstruación). Se conoce como Síndrome premenstrual (SPM) y son una serie de alteraciones físicas y psicológicas, que según diversos estudios están relacionadas con variaciones en los niveles de hormonas femeninas (estrógenos y progesterona) y también de un neurotransmisor llamado serotonina, un mensajero químico que es responsable… Continue reading
“Si el pantalón no me cabe, me pongo a dieta”
En las últimas semanas se ha abierto de nuevo el debate social entorno el sistema de tallas de ropa en España. Personalmente, celebro que este tema esté de nuevo sobre la mesa y sensibilice a la industria textil y al Gobierno de la necesidad de tomar cartas en el asunto.
La polémica la desató el estudio (www.f-ima.org) que se presentó el pasado 13 de septiembre en Madrid el cual ponía de manifiesto el impacto psicológico que produce variar de talla de ropa: incrementa la insatisfacción con el propio cuerpo y el riesgo de iniciar conductas nocivas para la salud tales como el seguimiento de dietes restrictivas sin control médico.
El estudio concluye que la percepción que tienen los españoles y españolas del… Continue reading
De actrices, modelos y cuerpos-yogur
T- Ahora quiero que me escuches bien. Te voy a dar algunos datos relacionados con la anorexia que, como sabes, es una enfermedad que afecta más a las mujeres que a los hombres.
P- Sí, ya me he dado cuenta. Aquí en la planta sólo hay mujeres.
T- Es verdad, a pesar de que alguna vez hemos tenido algún chico. Hay que tener en cuenta que por cada diez chicas que lo son, sólo hay un chico. Y además ellos pocas veces llegan a tener un peso tan bajo que nos obligue a ingresarlos.
P- ¿Y eso por qué?
T- Bueno, a los hombres no se les exige que tengan un cuerpo delgado; se les exige un cuerpo musculoso. En cambio a las… Continue reading

Antes del intercambio a Francia, habla como un nativo
Son muchas las razones por las cuales un universitario cualquiera decide irse de intercambio. Algunos quieren tener una experiencia de vida en el extranjero, otros conocer una cultura nueva, otros darle fuerza al curriculum vitae y otros perfeccionar una lengua extranjera aprendida.
Esos que optan la movilidad académica para aprender o mejorar una lengua, usualmente tienen miedo de comunicarse en la lengua en cuestión. El temor puede ser producido por la inseguridad que se tiene de no conocer a cabalidad la lengua, la cohibición como medida de prevención para no cometer errores, la intimidad que otros estudiantes avanzados tienden a provocar de forma involuntaria en los principiantes o simplemente, la falta de práctica.
La mayoría de quienes… Continue reading
Egresado de la Universidad EAFIT trabaja en la UMAN
Cuando tiembla en México, tiembla también la vida de Eduardo Botero Jaramillo, un egresado de Ingeniería Civil de la Universidad EAFIT que desde hace 14 años llegó a este país centroamericano para perfeccionar sus estudios en su campo, pero las oportunidades que le presentó la vida lo tienen hoy como investigador del Instituto de Ingeniería de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (Unam).
En principio, planeó su viaje en 1996 para realizar su maestría, sin embargo, luego decidió realizar el doctorado. Al terminarlo en 2004 se vinculó como asesor de este Instituto y la decisión de quedarse fue un hecho tras estrechar su nexo con esta institución como investigador del área de ingeniería sísmica y geotecnia.

Netflix Tests Streaming-Only Subscriptions in the U.S.
Netflix just added a streaming-only subscription plan for some U.S. customers. It costs at least $7.99 per month and it gives you all the Watch Instantly content you can handle, but it doesn’t include any DVD rentals.It appears to be available only to a few customers at present, as we’re not able to see a streaming-only plan on our account or when creating a new one. But tech blog Engadget claims that many of its writers are able to access the plans, albeit (strangely) at different prices. On one computer they’re offered a streaming-only plan for $7.99… Continue reading

It’s Not Just Facebook: MySpace Transmitted Personal Data
Last week, it was discovered that numerous Facebook apps were leaking user data to third-party companies, prompting the social network’s engineers to draft a proposal for encrypting user IDs. Now we’re seeing reports that a similar leak has occurred at MySpace, but the truth is that almost any social network could potentially have this problem.MySpace has tried to position itself as a privacy-friendly alternative to Facebook. Earlier this year, it made “friends only” the default setting for updates in response to Facebook users who complained that Facebook too often made their data… Continue reading
5 Ways to Get a Job Through YouTube
Not only is it possible to use YouTube to get a job, but it’s becoming a more popular option, especially for the current crop of would-be-employees that grew up with web video.Some argue that video is a more personal tool for job searching, acting as a digital interview, while others see it as cold and alienating, as it lacks the face-to-face element. But YouTube isn’t just about video resumes — there are a variety of creative ways to hop online and get hired.Even better, YouTube isn’t just for Millennials. Web video can be useful for professionals… Continue reading
Top 10 Twitter Trends This Week [CHART]
By most accounts, there wasn’t much excitement in the Twitterverse this week. As some of last week’s epic trends and news stories subsided, international sports rose back to the top of the charts, with football (soccer) taking number one, and the Commonwealth Games taking number two, perhaps because of its somewhat disastrous course.One fresh trend that popped onto the radar this week was an initiative by the Manchester, UK police department, who tweeted an update for every incident addressed and emergency call received within 24 hours last Friday. The experiment generated enough… Continue reading
Weekend Gaming: “Vanquish” and “Killzone 3″ Beta Invites [OPEN THREAD]
Fallout: New Vegas was one of my most anticipated games of the year. I bought it Tuesday and I haven’t even opened it yet. I will, I promise, but right now there is an unexpected love in my life.Based on Samuel Axon’s recommendation, I decided to pickup a copy of Vanquish the same day, and I’ve been completely hooked.Vanquish (360, PS3)Vanquish isn’t a total reinvention of the third-person shooter genre, but it is a complete re-imagining of it. In some ways it’s reminiscent of HALO, but the pacing and gameplay are the real story here, not that the plot is terrible.The game starts with the U.S. under siege by an enemy with an orbital microwave weapon capable of… Continue reading

BuyDomains Does The Right Thing
I’ve been promoting some of my sites through SEO the past few months, which is something I’ve never done before.
I have been hiring a freelance SEO guy for the past 4 months with mixed results (although the past 4 days I have seen unbelievable improvement, but that was before this incident took place). With such mixed results at the time, I wanted to try hiring an actual SEO company/firm and then compare the results with my freelance guy.
Since I didn’t have any other good sites that were good SEO candidates, I decided to shop for a good domain with the intention of making a simple affiliate site for it and then hiring the SEO company. I also wanted to see… Continue reading

Evance R9000: Pequeño gran aerogenerador
En un mundo ideal todos tendríamos derecho al acceso de producción de energías renovables a precios asequibles, aprovechando por el poder del viento o del sol.
La energía eólica no es algo nuevo, es una de las energías más antiguas junto a la energía térmica. Los molinos de viento han sido descritos en la literatura en numerosas ocasiones, como en la publicación del libro Don Quijote de la Mancha, quizás los molinos más famosos del mundo. Desde hace cientos de años se utiliza la energía del viento para moler el grano de las cosechas mediante una piedra circular fija, llamada solera o muela.
No existe certeza de quien fue el inventor, algunos estudiosos dicen que fue una idea del célebre… Continue reading
¿Qué es la contaminación lumínica?
LA CONTAMINACION LUMINICA ES EL BRILLO O RESPLANDOR DE LUZ EN EL CIELO NOCTURNO PRODUCIDO POR LA REFLEXION Y DIFUSION DE LUZ ARTIFICIAL EN LOS GASES Y EN LAS PARTICULAS DEL AIRE POR EL USO DE LUMINARIAS INADECUADAS Y/O EXCESOS DE ILUMINACION. EL MAL APANTALLAMIENTO DE LA ILUMINACION DE EXTERIORES ENVIA LA LUZ DE FORMA DIRECTA HACIA EL CIELO EN VEZ DE SER UTILIZADA PARA ILUMINAR EL SUELO
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Newsroom/NewImages/images.php3?img_id=4333
La forma en que la luz artificial es enviada hacia el cielo puede dividirse en tres partes:
Directa, desde la propia fuente de luz (lámpara ó bombilla).
Por reflexión en las superficies iluminadas.
Por refracción en las partículas del aire
a) La refracción suele tener un impacto muy despreciable… Continue reading
Bangladesh e India son los países más vulnerables al cambio climático, según la consultora británica Maplecroft
El estudio elaborado por la consultoría británica Maplecroft, alerta que estos dos países serán los que tengan más problemas en un futuro cercano, a consecuencia del cambio climático. En él, los países nórdicos son los que salen más favorecidos.
"Grandes economías de futuro" en Asia están entre aquellas que enfrentan los mayores riesgos de calentamiento global en los próximos 30 años, así como grandes áreas de África, afirman los responsables del informa.
La pobreza y las grandes regiones costeras por debajo del nivel del mar son los factores que hacen de Bangladesh un país muy vulnerable. India, en segundo lugar, sufre por su parte una creciente superpoblación. Madagascar se sitúa en tercer lugar, seguido de Nepal, Mozambique, Filipinas, Haití… Continue reading
El océano más caliente y ácido por los gases de efecto invernadero
Esta es la conclusión a la que han llegado en un importante informe, una serie de organizaciones como la Unión Internacional para la Conservación de la Naturaleza (UICN) y The Nature Conservancy (TNC) dicen que las áreas marinas deben ser protegidas rápidamente.
El agua caliente hace que el coral expela a las algas con las que suele vivir en una relación simbiótica, sin la cual mueren.
Los espacios protegidos en tierra y mar aparecen en una serie de objetivos acordados en el Convenio sobre la Diversidad Biológica.
Foto de la costa del Océano Atlántico para Google Earth
Pero mientras que alrededor del 13% de la superficie terrestre del planeta está ahora bajo algún tipo de protección, para las áreas marinas es apenas el 1%… Continue reading
El programa de Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente entra en el mundo virtual
El nuevo sitio — protectedplanet.net — tiene como objetivo ayudar a la gente a visitar áreas protegidas poco conocidas, generar ingresos y mejorar el conocimiento que hay de ellos.
El lanzamiento se llevó a cabo durante la Convención de las Naciones Unidas sobre la Diversidad Biológica (CDB), justo en medio de informes de alerta de que hay que aumentar rápidamente la protección del mar.
El objetivo de proteger el 10% de los océanos para el año 2012 será recordado por un largo camino.
Las áreas protegidas son una de las maneras más eficaces de salvaguardar plantas, animales y ecosistemas, dijo Charles Besançon, jefe del programa de áreas protegidas del Programa de las Naciones Unidas para el Medio Ambiente (PNUMA).

Le Pain Quotidien, la pasión belga por el pan artesano de lujo
Paseando por mi querido Madrid he descubierto Le Pain Quotidien, un establecimiento belga fundado en 1990, que ha decidido desembarcar en España su pasión por la cocina casera y tradicional. En la que destaca su exquisita panadería y bollería, además de su pâtisserie.
Como buena coolhunter me metí en el susodicho, atraída por su escaparate, y fundamentalmente, por los olores que de él salían, una mezcla entre pan recién horneado y brownie. Dentro me encontré un lugar tranquilo dónde poder tomar un café con los amigos o poder picar algo a la salida del trabajo, todo ello en un ambiente muy cosmopolita.
Me llamó la atención la mesa comunal, la cual me encantó, por la comodidad de ver las caras a todos… Continue reading

Dinamo: Productos de papelería ecológicos y sostenibles

Why $100 is the sweet spot for the right set-top box
The set-top box market is heating up. Currently, the Apple TV is on store shelves, along with the new Logitech Revue, several Roku boxes, and many more products that are vying for your wallet. The only issue is, there isn’t a single device on the market right now that delivers everything consumers are really looking for. And the reason why is quite simple: they’re all overpriced.
Next time you go to Best Buy or surf around Amazon, do me a favor and examine the Logitech Revue.
That device, which runs Google TV, has quickly become the benchmark by which all the other products in the set-top box market are judged. To some extent, that… Continue reading
The Daily Slash: October 22th 2010
If you’re playing Farmville, you might be playing for the right team. Playing something else? You might be outta cash very soon. Real world legal reasons below. Galaxy news, Google TV, a couple new excellent apps for Android, and that’s just on SlashPhone and AndroidCommunity.

More Fabulous Xbox Kinect Ads Including Xbox LIVE Interaction [Videos]
Hooray! They’re releasing the ads like wild wombats out of a gunnysack, all of them for the Xbox Kinect which they say will change OUR ENTIRE LIVES. Yes indeed, no doubt that it will, at least the way we look at playing video games at home. Just [yesterday] we shared with you the first video, one that now appears to have been a chopped up version of the following videos which are categorized as Kinect for Xbox 360 (all encompassing), Kinect Sports, Kinect Adventures, and the extremely exciting video about what might be a glimpse into the future of interactive entertainment: Xbox LIVE with Kinect.
This Kinect device will allow users to be their own controller. It seems to me… Continue reading
Michael Hedges Purchases 4,500 iPads
No joke, Michael Hedges purchased 4,500 iPads. Not for himself, of course, but for his company Medtronic to use. Michael Hedges is the CIO, vice president, and head of global IT over at Medtronic, a company of 40,000 employees. Hedges was one of the first corporate users to take an interest in the iPad, switching the normally gigantic expensive displays at a trade show Medtronic sets up at with iPads at its booth – less than a week after the iPad was released.
The reason Hedges chose to ship 10 iPads to the show just days after the US release was a simple one – they didn’t have them there yet. Europe at that moment hadn’t had a release of the… Continue reading
Google Street View Car Cameras Grab Emails and Passwords
Those cars that drive around your city with the multi-view cameras on the top aren’t there to abduct you, they’re there to be your friend and provide you with the service of being able to see any street you like through GoogleMaps in real-life color and up-to-date imagery. That’s it, right? It was supposed to be all good, but Google seems to be continuously running into trouble with this service, from capturing streakers and thieves to now perhaps accidentally collecting full emails and passwords.
Today regulators in more than 30 countries (obviously, the same countries that have the cars driving around) are looking into this issue of capturing and displaying data through the online street map service. The fact that this… Continue reading
France Launching Palm Pre 2, WebOS 2.0
France is running around crazy with their new telephones today, all jumping into the air, swinging around signposts, falling down into train station holes. Why? Because today is the day they get their Palm Pre 2, launched on the SFR network. The pricing is between € 99.90 on contract and on up to € 399.90 off-contract. This lovely little device is rocking the P102UEU, which means it’s a wild animal.
This Palm Pre 2 has a AZERTY keyboard, which, if you’re not familiar with, is very similar to the QWERTY you’re used to, but a bunch of the keys are switched around to be more friendly to the French dictionary. This French version is also working on European 3G bands, which means… Continue reading

On Wednesday, Apple’s Steve Jobs stood on stage and, as he usually does, said that he had one more thing to announce after the event supposedly ended. This time around, after unveiling plenty of new additions to the software front, Jobs introduced the brand new line-up of MacBook Air. Featuring a 13- and 11-inch model, the new laptops are certainly some of the most attractive pieces of hardware Apple has released to date. And if you find yourself wanting one, or planning on buying one, you’re apparently not alone, as an analyst has come forward to predict that Apple will sell 700,000 units by the end of the fourth quarter, 2010.

AT&T Beginning to Transition to LTE-Capable SIM Cards
The transition to 4G is a slow one, but one that customers (and companies) are eagerly looking forward to. With 4G, customers will get improved data speeds, along with other improvements to the network. For AT&T, that means the introduction of an LTE (Long Term Evolution)-based network, which will include devices and smartphones alike. But, without a planned roll-out made publicly available, everyone is still waiting to hear when AT&T plans on rolling out 4G, and where. That’s not stopping them from sending out internal memos about transitioning to LTE-capable SIM cards, though.
According to a leaked photo of an internal AT&T memo, Ma Bell is getting ready to transition to LTE. The company has begun its standard procedure for preparing its… Continue reading
Human Easily Beats Expert Bowling Robot [Video]
Robots are getting more advanced every day, especially as the designers behind them test new ground. But, even if some consider the fact that a robot beat a world-class Shogi player for the first time ever a few weeks back the sign of End Times, perhaps there’s a bit of solace in the fact that a human easily beat a robot bowler. In fact, the robot is actually considered an “expert bowling robot,” but that didn’t mean anything to the human opponent, who managed to beat the expert easily enough.
EARL is the robots name, which stands for Enhanced Automated Robotic Launcher, and it was created to help the National Bowling Congress’ Equipment Specifications and Certifications team test bowling gear. They… Continue reading
MacBook Air 11.6″ Review
Steve Jobs’ views on budget ultraportable are pretty clear. “We don’t know how to make a $500 computer that’s not a piece of junk,” he told investors back in 2008, and so the new 2010 MacBook Air is neither of those things. Instead, it’s a $999+ slice of instant-on notebook and, if you believe the hyperbole, pulls together the best of Apple’s MacBook range and their best-selling iPad. It doesn’t hurt that it’s almost indecently fabulous looking, too. Check out the SlashGear review of the 11.6-inch MacBook Air 2010 after the cut.
The first-generation MacBook Air polarized opinion more than most of Apple’s products. Fans praised its ultra-slim design… Continue reading
Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is BlizzConned
You guys can’t imagine our disappointment right now. We camped out for tickets, ponied up for the entry fee and made the long trek to Anaheim — but we were operating under the assumption that BlizzCon was a celebration of that timeless Dairy Queen treat. We arrived with lists of toppings we’d like to see whipped into soft serve, but we don’t think anyone here is going to be able to help us out on that front.
Below are our seven favorite gaming-centric webcomics from this past week. Check them out, and vote for your favorite in the poll after the jump!

Are you ready to hear one of the most startling things you’ll hear this month? Listen to the new voice actor for Marty McFly in Telltale’s upcoming Back to the Future adventure games, one A.J.

Adult Swim’s latest Flash game climbs the corporate ladder
Continuing its tradition of putting out quality, humorous browser-based games, Adult Swim recently launched its latest pixelated onus: Corporate Climber. The game’s a simple platformer where the player ascends through the ranks of a major, criminally unsafe business by literally ascending through said business’ corporate headquarters. Basically, it’s like an episode of The Office, only it’s way more violent, and way, way less awkward.
Check it out over on Adult Swim’s game portal — that is, assuming you can resist the siren call of Robot Unicorn Attack. You’re playing it right now, aren’t you?

Blood Bowl: Legendary Edition’s High Elf team revealed

Interplay claims it wanted $50 million for Fallout rights, Bethesda refused
The neverending tiff between Interplay and Bethesda over development of a Fallout-based MMO recently got a bit more backstory on the end of the former. Interplay president Eric Caen recently said in an interview with Edge that Bethesda was offered the rights to the Fallout MMO for $50 million, explaining that “the MMOG strength of this universe is huge.” According to Caen, Bethesda passed on the license for a Fallout MMO, which Interplay then began developing with certain “conditions” established by Bethesda — such as a required development start date of April 4, 2009.
The rest, as they say is history — Bethesda filed a termination letter for Interplay to stop working on the project last year, claiming that… Continue reading

BlizzCon 2010: Diablo 3: A Hero Emerges
At the tail end of yesterday’s opening ceremonies at BlizzCon 2010, Blizzard Entertainment’s Chris Metzen announced the fifth and final Diablo 3 class: the Demon Hunter. Immediately after the opening ceremonies, Diablo 3’s lead designer Jay Wilson lead a panel largely centered on the new class, but also included a few other major details on the new Trait and Rune systems, as well as a few new spells and skills for the other classes.Continue reading BlizzCon 2010: Diablo 3: A Hero EmergesBlizzCon 2010: Diablo 3: A Hero Emerges originally appeared on Joystiq on Sat, 23 Oct 2010 13:30:00 EST.

We have no objection with Capcom’s Ace Attorney sale
Looking to learn more about this Phoenix Wright fellow who’s about to share the stage with your beloved Professor Layton? First of all, curse your selective DS gaming diet. Secondly, you should look into Capcom’s current deal of the week: The publisher’s marked down prices on Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney and a Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney art book.

Taiko Drum Master Wii adds four-player support, party games
For some, the sound of one person banging on a plastic drum peripheral just isn’t enough. Two? Not gonna cut it. Now four, that might get the decibel level high enough. Good thing, then, that Namco Bandai’s next Taiko Drum Master game for Wii, Taiko Drum Master Wii: Everyone Party, will let four players cooperate and compete simultaneously when it launches in Japan on December 2.
In addition to the traditional song-playing modes, the game will sport several party minigames, including battling against crocodiles, fighting ghosts and collecting treasure while combating a giant squid. (We made one of those up.*)

Dot Com Pho – Underwater Video Edition
This week’s Dot Com Pho comes to you from the Pho House in Renton. The Pho House is one of the best Pho restaurant I’ve ever been too. What they lack in decor they more than make up for in great tasting Pho. Their specialty is the Pho 2010 Super Bowl. This is a big bowl of Pho that only Stephen Fung can finish.

Review Kodak Zx3 At The Farm At Swans Trail
I had an opportunity to take Sally to the Farm at Swans Trail so I used it to test out the new Kodak PlaySport Zx3 digital video recorder that I received at Blog World Expo. The Zx3 competes against the popular Flip Mino digital video recorder but it has a few extra features going for it. For starters, the Zx3 offers higher resolution. While the Flip is limited to 720P, the Kodak is able to record at full 1080P HD. In addition, the Zx3 is waterproof down to three meters so you can film underwater. I haven’t tested the Zx3′s ability to keep out the water yet, but I will at tomorrow’s Dot… Continue reading

Apple Magic Trackpad Review – Has No Magic
The Apple Magic Trackpad is the second product from Apple that has the word “Magic” in it. Unfortunately, like the Magic Mouse that came before it, the Magic Trackpad I got for this review is also lacking in the magic department. Mind you, I do prefer the Magic Trackpad over the Magic Mouse but neither is ever going to replace my Logitech VX Revolution mouse anytime soon.Anyone who has ever used a current generation Macbook Pro will be instantly familiar with the Magic Trackpad. All the gestures are pretty much the same. The big advantage is the tracking surface. It’s over 50% bigger than the already large surface found on the Macbook Pro trackpad. This allowed a great… Continue reading
My Society of American Travel Writers Keynote
I had the honor of giving the keynote address to the 2010 Society of American Travel Writers convention in Germany. For those who didn’t make it to Dresden to hear my keynote live, I’ve embedded it into this blog post. I’ve also made the keynote available for download. The file is 38MB.I recorded the keynote live using the built in voice recorder in the Telepromt+ iPad app. However, the current version has no way of extracting the audio files. I want to thank Tim Cochrane of Bombing Brain Interactive for sending me a newer version of Teleprompt+ that allowed audio extraction. Bombing Brain says the next version of Teleprompt+ (due is a week or two) will allow… Continue reading

V-MODA introduces Vibrato noise-isolating in-ear headphones
Are you currently in the hunt for a new pair of headphones, but do not know where to look? Well, if the answer is in the affirmative and you don’t mind forking out a little bit extra over the regular bunch of headphones you see out there, then we would definitely want you to have a closer look at the V-MODA Vibrato noise-isolating in-ear headphones. Sounds like a mouthful to ask from the counter at Apple stores nationwide, but do read on and check out just what it can do before you relegate it away to a non-purchase category. Crafted from zinc alloy and featuring a Kevlar fabric cable with a 3-button remote and microphone, the Vibrato could very well be… Continue reading
Joby introduces Gorillatorch Switchback

Well, we are pleased to say that you aren’t too far off the mark either with their latest release, as the new Gorillatorch Switchback is touted to be the ultimate companion for the outdoor enthusiast, where this unique combination of a lantern-headlamp will rely on the very same LED light array in a single form factor so that you will not have to carry two separate lights on your adventures, freeing up at least one hand (or a mouth if you love to bite on your torches).

Autoloader Screwdriver for DIY enthusiasts
If you are a DIY enthusiast, chances are pretty high that you already own a personal set of tools that absolutely, ultimately, cannot be touched by anyone else other than yourself. After all, this is your samurai sword – once “unsheathed”, it must screw something in. Well, if you hold such tools in high regard, then the Autoloader Screwdriver might be just the ticket for you. This £19.99 purchase is touted to be idiot proof, as it boasts a patented pump-action bit change mechanism. All you need to do is pull back the handle, twist until you find the right bit for the job and you’re good to go. There is a total of half a dozen nickel-plated Phillips… Continue reading

Hands on with the Inductive Charger from Energizer
We have reported on the Inductive Charger before, which looks to be Energizer’s answer to the Powermat and Wildcharger.
Some of you remember when I had a face-off between the other wireless chargers. If you recall, there was no victor for that contest. Both products do exactly what they advertise.
The Inductive Charger only has power sleeves for the Blackberry Curve 8900 as well as the iPhone 3GS and 3G. At least, for now.
As it is, Energizer’s Inductive Charger is a Qi inductive charger, which is its strongest feature. Qi is the new universal standard for inductive charging as established by the Wireless Power Consortium.

Meet the robot bowler EARL
If they ever wanted to remake The Big Lebowski with robots, they would probably have to cast EARL in the film. I’m not certain if the bowling robot should be Jesus Quintana or The Dude.
EARL (Enhanced Automated Robotic Launcher) is a one-armed robot used by the Equipment Specifications and Certifications team of the National Bowling Congress to test gear.
EARL is one accurate robot that can hurl a ball from 10 to 24 miles per hour at 50 to 900 revolutions per minute, and make a consistent shot every time. Or so the creators thought. You might want to check out the video to see it go up against a professional bowler.

Cleaning Robots
I got an iRobot Roomba today (model 550), partly out of curiosity to see what they’re like and partly because if it works, it will fill a practical need. I haven’t had it more than a few hours, but I thought I’d share my initial observations in case you’re curious about these cleaning robots.The Roomba vacuumed my floors for at least an hour today and did a decent job as far as I could tell. It moves around in a very non-human pattern, but it’s supposed to cover the floors thoroughly.When the battery is low or it’s done cleaning, it automatically returns to its home base and recharges itself. That part worked as expected. It docked with the home base… Continue reading
How To Make Innovative Ideas Happen
In one of his recent presentations, Frans Johansson explained why groundbreaking innovators generate and execute far more ideas than their counterparts.

Review of Popular Web Font Embedding Services
In the mid-80s the desktop publishing revolution began with the introduction of the Mac Plus, Aldus PageMaker and the Apple LaserWriter printer. It took quite a few years for these tools to make an impact on the design and publishing world, but once they did, there was no looking back.In 2010 we see a similar revolution starting to take shape with web fonts. Even though @font-face was introduced in the CSS2 spec in 1998, it wasn’t until this past year that all in-use web browsers added support for it. This year we’re seeing a wave of web font services being marketed, and this could have a profound impact on web typography.Web… Continue reading

Why $100 is the sweet spot for the right set-top box
The set-top box market is heating up. Currently, the Apple TV is on store shelves, along with the new Logitech Revue, several Roku boxes, and many more products that are vying for your wallet. The only issue is, there isn’t a single device on the market right now that delivers everything consumers are really looking for. And the reason why is quite simple: they’re all overpriced.
Next time you go to Best Buy or surf around Amazon, do me a favor and examine the Logitech Revue.
That device, which runs Google TV, has quickly become the benchmark by which all the other products in the set-top box market are judged. To some extent, that… Continue reading

Michael Hedges Purchases 4,500 iPads
No joke, Michael Hedges purchased 4,500 iPads. Not for himself, of course, but for his company Medtronic to use. Michael Hedges is the CIO, vice president, and head of global IT over at Medtronic, a company of 40,000 employees. Hedges was one of the first corporate users to take an interest in the iPad, switching the normally gigantic expensive displays at a trade show Medtronic sets up at with iPads at its booth – less than a week after the iPad was released.
The reason Hedges chose to ship 10 iPads to the show just days after the US release was a simple one – they didn’t have them there yet. Europe at that moment hadn’t had a release of the… Continue reading
Google Street View Car Cameras Grab Emails and Passwords
Those cars that drive around your city with the multi-view cameras on the top aren’t there to abduct you, they’re there to be your friend and provide you with the service of being able to see any street you like through GoogleMaps in real-life color and up-to-date imagery. That’s it, right? It was supposed to be all good, but Google seems to be continuously running into trouble with this service, from capturing streakers and thieves to now perhaps accidentally collecting full emails and passwords.
Today regulators in more than 30 countries (obviously, the same countries that have the cars driving around) are looking into this issue of capturing and displaying data through the online street map service. The fact that this… Continue reading
