Super Hero Gadgets

Wish you had Iron Man’s Repulsor Ray? You can. Control items with your ring like Green Lantern? Make a working Batarang. It’s easy and you can do it with everyday objects.

The new website SuperHeroGadgets.com has dozens of projects, some easy, some elaborate, that show you how to make Super Hero gear.

You’ll see real-life working examples of Batmobile Tumblers, Iron Man armor, Flying Jetpacks, Mind-Over-Matter, Levitation devices and Super Spy gadgets.

SuperHeroGadgets.com was developed by Cy Tymony whose “Sneaky Uses for Everyday Things” book series have sold over a quarter-miilion copies.

Tymony’s books demonstrate how ordinary objects can be used in extraordinary ways including: Turning milk into a plastic, making alternative energy projects, converting cups into calculators, turning holiday discards into robots and how to make a 007 ‘Gadget Jacket.’

Gayle Anderson of KTLA Channel 5 News reported that parents saw an improvement in their children’s grades after reading the books. The books have been featured in the Los Angeles Times, The Daily Breeze, U.S. News & World Report, on NPR’s Science Friday, WBBM-TV’s Tech Tuesday, WMAQ5, ABC-7 and on CNN Headline News.

Is Staples Going Out Of Business, Website Down?

Staples recently updated their site. Some new elements made their site nicer, but the website still has ways to go. Today, the website was down most of the business day. This is a very bad sign that there are problems in the IT department. For a major company like Staples to have their website down more than an hour, it either means the IT department doesn’t know how host their site correctly, or there is ILL communications between the IT and business departments.
This isnt good news if you were thinking of buying their stock for 2010. This is a warning Staples is going to have a rough 2010 year.
I had to buy some paper and pens today, didnt have time for Staples to get their act together so I bought it at Office Max instead.

Blu-ray is Going 33.4 GB

This issue may not be a concern at present but any benefit it would offer is a welcome development.  The Blu-ray disc looks set for a boost from its present 25 GB per layer capacity to 33.4 GB per layer.  Sony and Panasonic are busily working together on a new method to increase the capacity by employing a new Blu-ray media evaluation scheme called the Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation evaluation index or i-MLSE.  This is a new method of estimating read error rate of discs and will still use the current Blu-ray optics.  i-MSE is a complex process but recent advancements in hardware has made possible for it to be used in real time in Blu-ray discs.  This development was announced at the International Symposium on Optical Memory (ISOM) 2009 held last October 2009.  There was no timeline yet for the  rollout but as per industry sources, Sony will lobby to the Blu-ray Disc Association, of which it is the leading member, the widespread adoption of i-MLSE.

Expect Big Developments in Tablet PCs in 2010

One of the most anticipated developments in the computer industry this year is the Tablet.  The tablet that we usually know is the flat surface input device where we draw images using a stylus, similar to what we do when we draw images with a pencil on a paper.  The tablet PC more commonly known now is a slate-shaped portable computer with a touchscreen display that can be operated on by using a stylus or the fingertip.  An external keyboard is an option and is usually connected either through USB or Bluetooth.  Early applications were in specialized fields like factories, health care and restaurants.  The Tablet was in recent years embraced by leading PC manufacturers such as Acer, Asus, Fujitsu, HP and Lenovo to name a few, which made it possible for the product to find its way in consumer hands.  Probably the most anticipated development that brought much excitement to consumers these days is the news that Apple will be coming out with its own version of the tablet that is rumored to be called the iSlate.  What worries other vendors is it is expected to somehow take a slice of the market not only from competing tablet products but also from related products like the e-book reader and netbooks.
