Sex, Violence, Drugs, Drinking… No Problem with “Clear Play”

Finally parents shouldn’t be worrying about watching whatever movies along with their kids. Yes, that’s true, with the new Clear Play technique for DVD Players you can play any movie you desire without any worries about censoring any undesired scenes involving sex or violence, drugs, drinking or even bad language. It costs 70 US Dollars and skips all undesired scenes and mutes undesired savage language. Isn’t this wonderful!

JA Leute, keine elterliche Aufsicht ist jetzt beim Filmenabspiel nötig. Man kann jetzt Filme mit seinen Kindern ganz ruhig und sorgenfrei anschauen. Sex-, Gewalt-, Drogenszenen, und auch vulgäre Sprache spielen jetzt keine Rolle, wenn man nur ein DVD Player mit ClearPlay-Technik besitzt. Denn ClearPlay überspringt die ungewünschten Szenen und ausschaltet den Ton wenn vulgäre Sprache repräsentiert wird. Toll, oder!

“Hello Kitty” To Promote Friendship In Japan

In its first attempt ever to use a toy character for promotional reasons, the European Union delegation has decided to use the highly popular Hello Kitty cartoon character to publicize the Euro and promote friendship in Japan.
“We just want to convey a friendly, human face of the European Union,” said Etienne Reuter, head of the delegation’s press section. The EU wants to give “little presents to people so that they will remember the EU or be more aware of what the EU stands for,” Reuter said.
The delegation has already ordered 2,000 Hello Kitty cell phone straps and key rings and will buy more if the promotional items prove successful.
On the promotional material, the traditional pinks and reds Hello Kitty wears on her chest have been replaced with blue and yellow, the starry EU flag and the “€” logo to promote Europe’s new currency.
I’ve always loved “Hello Kitty” myself, and still have some old toys and bags of it 🙂

Ein Gehirnchip für Gelähmte

Eine neue Technik der Brown University, Massachusetts, hat es ermöglicht, Computer allein durch Denken zu steuern. Ein zwei Quadratmillimeter Gehirnchip wird über dem Ohr eingepflanzt, und in der Nähe des Gehirnareals gebracht, das für Bewegungen verantwortlich ist. Der Kontakt wird durch Elektroden auf der Oberfläche des Chips hergestellt. Über ein Kabel steht der Chip nach der Operation mit dem Computer in Verbindung und der Patient kann ihn allein mit seine Gedanken lenken.
Eine sehr interessante und hilfreiche Technik, trotzdem fürchten die Kritiker, dass die Risiken der Operation zu hoch sind.

High-Tech-Fans Products

Among the most common problems a person can get when constantly sitting in front of a p.c. screen are the: tensed back, cold fingers, and headache.
And because of its concern about customers satisfaction, Hama offers a “healthy”, creative, one of a kind product, which is a
USB-massage ball that guarantees a bit of relaxation in your office:) .
This USB –massage ball is simply connected via USB, and starts vibrating in a click. It’s also considered economic.
Its vibrations give a comforting massage that relieves stiffness and pain. I personally liked the product, and hope they’ll keep on thinking of creative solutions for this tiresome life.

Ear Prints!

Thieves must start considering “ear Gloves” or they’ll end up in prison because of their ears from now on. That’s true since the first computerized system for identifying ear prints has been already produced. Professor Guy Rutty’s system allows data sharing and rapid communication between police forces.
I found that pretty impressive.

Anti-Valentine’s!

With all this Valentine’s fuss, all what one can see is RED. Red hearts, red napkins with HEARTS on them, red heart-shaped candles, red wrapped heart- shaped chocolates, red heart-pillows with arrows, red roses, red clothes, red cups with hearts printed on them, red boxes, teddy bears with hearts and arrows, cupid dolls, red cards…etc. Thank God there are no bulls free out there!!
Anyway, if Valentine’s Day means nothing to you, or if you have no partner, or if you’ve had enough with all these Valentine’s preparations and don’t know how to express your anti-valentine feelings, all you have to do is pick one of these extremely funny AntiValentine’s e-cards… You’ll love them 🙂

For all others who are pro-Valentine’s Day, I wish you all a happy day with your beloved ones. And well, the net is stuffed with cards you’d love.
