Shure E500PTH - The Ultimate Sound Isolating Earphones

Click here for more information or to purchase this product

While these may the most expensive earphones ever, except perhaps for those with gold plating and diamond studs, the Shure E500PTH Sound Isolating Earphones are pretty much the earphones to drool over.

Sound quality is, no argument, the best in the market.

I normally hate ear bud style headphones, but the comfort of these can't be beat. They feel like nothing is there.

And one of the nicest features - push to hear. Most noise-isolating earphones do just that, isolate the outside noise so that all you hear is your music. And then when someone talks to you, or you actually want to hear something outside, you have to pull them off. The Shures have a switch that causes them to reverse the sound isolation, so that you hear what's outside and not what's playing.

They include a carrying case, and the "push-to-hear" switch can be removed for increased portability. You can't go wrong with these, as long as you can afford the steep price.

Machine Gun USB Drive




If having a USB drive resembling the bullet from a machine gun isn’t enough for you, perhaps this USB drive made to look like an actual machine gun would be better suited for you. Don’t worry, it’s not quite as large as a machine gun, so it is somewhat portable. Although I’d advise keeping it away from places like the airport, despite that it is small enough to fit into your pocket.
Even though it appears pocket-sized, I’m not sure it’d be very comfortable within your pocket. These Machine Gun USB Drives look like they have plenty of small pieces to poke you with and even break off within your pockets. However, you could just leave this 4GB drive on your desk. You can purchase the drive for $22 through USB Geek, which isn’t too bad of a price for a 4GB drive.


Samsung E6 eReader ready to hit the US market


Samsung wants to rock and roll with their own eBook reader as well which they have dubbed the E6 eReader (how convenient). It will still take some time to see just whether this market is big enough to support so many players, as eBook readers don’t seem to be making that much of an impact in the world against regular paperbacks compared to how the MP3 format literally brought the CD industry to its knees, with the iPod gaining a humongous market share that Apple doesn’t seem likely to be giving up its throne in that department anytime soon. But I digress – the Samsung E6 eReader now only allows you to access your content easily, it also doubles up as a form of digital notepad, taking down notes as well as thoughts on the page directly, the ability to highlight content and sharing notes with friends and peers. Samsung has merged more than a million electronic titles, advanced handwriting capabilities and Wi-Fi connectivity into a single, easy-to-use device which we’ll look at in greater detail right after the jump.

Election 2010

Youth Voters who vote last SK elections need to register again

-Comelec

The Commission on Elections spokesman James Jimenez said that youth voters who registered last 2007 during the Sangguniang Kabataan (Youth Council, SK) elections should register again for them to be able to vote for the 2010 elections.

Those SK voters aged 15 to 17 that time, are registered but their registration does that make them “qualified for regular elections” because the verification process for voters in regular elections is more thorough compared to that of SK elections, Jimenez added.

Voters, turning 18 on election day, may register at the Comelec office where he/she resides.

An applicant must accomplish the forms, and submit accomplished forms to the election officer.

Voter must present any valid identification card such as student’s ID or library card signed by the school authority, NBI or police clearance, postal ID, driver’s license, SSS card, GSIS ID, PRC license or employee’s ID.

In the event that the voter failed to present any of the required identification documents, the applicant may be identified under oath by any registered voter of the precinct, or any of his/her relatives within fourth civil degree of consanguinity or affinity.

Upon receipt of the application form from the elction officer, the voter may proceed to the data capturing machines to get his/her biometrics.

Deadline of registration for the 2010 elections is on October 31.

Election day should be blackout-free

To prevent power outages during the 2010 automated elections, the Comelec is planning to deal with power suppliers.

Comelec Commissioner Rene Sarmiento aims to have formal agreements with power suppliers to ensure continuous power supply on election day. He will then propose this idea to the poll en banc.

The fear is due to the recent 10-hour power black out in the Visayas region. Sarmiento feared that cheating will occur during power black outs especially during the counting and canvassing of votes.

One of the requirements in the procurement of poll machines is that the precinct count optical scan (PCOS) should have standby battery units, for the machine to be able to operate in events of power outages.

PCOS should also have a removable, non-rewritables memory storage device containing the stored voting data of a precinct. In such case of electroninc transmission problems, this storage device will serve as an emergancy unit. The device will then be removed and a board of election officer could transport it to the nearest precinct so the data can be transmitted.
