iPod singing, a new trend? (Video)

There has to be something more funny than karaoke…and yes there is! The iPod singing
OPINION: Energy Madness

For anyone not yet discouraged by the state of U.S. politics, the latest proposal from the presidential campaign trail may cause cynicism to finally triumph over hope. In response to soaring gasoline prices, Senators John McCain and Hillary Clinton have proposed a summer gas-tax holiday-suggesting that motorists will save 18 cents per gallon as a result. That would be a tiny fraction of the dramatic increase in gasoline prices over the past few years, and there's little reason to expect that t
The Art of Aging Gracefully- Part One
Thu, 01 May 2008 03:00:31 PDT
The number one question sent to me from beauty snobs of all ages is-- "How do I age gracefully"? Take a stroll through Neiman Marcus in Beverly Hills or Bergdorf Goodman in NYC and you will see how NOT to do so from women who flaunt their latest scars from face lifts, brow lifts, etc. It appears having plastic surgery that looks obvious is the new status symbol, bizarre right? Puzzling as it may be, it's the "designer" plastic surgery syndrome-- women who want you to know they spent a lot of do

“Traditional valuation techniques often fail to capture or adequately quantify the value created by technology initiatives (…) Anyone who has tried to measure the value of a technology investment has, at some point, discovered the difficulty of presenting a compelling business case using standard techniques like net present value (NPV) or return on investment (ROI).” “Projected cash flows seem meager in comparison to the investment required, or the discount rate chosen to compensate for th
Is solar power actually viable?- by Navtej Kohli
Thu, 01 May 2008 03:30:57 PDT
Navtej Kohli throws some light at the viability issues of much hyped solar energy. As the world is looking at alternative sources of energy, solar power is looked upon as the most viable source. At present solar energy is perhaps the vastly dominant source of energy we use. It just comes in a form we don’t really contemplate, which is oil. The first step of oil formation is the photosynthesis of sunlight by extremely small plankton like plants millions of years ago. These days, we need a qui

I always enjoy seeing members of the online double bass community appear in print media. What we do here online has, I believe, just as much validity and potency (and has arguably surpassed print media in importance in recent years) as print media, and most of the material published here on doublebassblog.org actually reaches more eyeballs than any of these individual print publications. Still, I can’t help but feel a thrill every time I see a paper publication from someone that I’ve featured p

Hundreds of child slaves found working in Chinese factories

The trend of children sold into slavery to make cheap crap for Wal-mart appears to be on the rise.

From RecruitingTrends.com (my emphasis): Manpower Inc. releases the results of its third annual talent shortage survey, revealing that 31% of employers globally are finding it increasingly more difficult to fill jobs. The top three candidates most in-demand are skilled manual trades, sales representatives and technicians (technical workers in the areas of production/operations, engineering and maintenance). What would it be if they put a qualifier on finding the right salesperson? I keep say
iFanboy Mini - Episode 34 - Bin Diving: Classic Thor Covers
Thu, 01 May 2008 04:27:43 PDT
There really is nothing quite a classic Walt Simonson Thor cover. They're instantly recognizable. As the issue numbers get higher, you can see some of the more painful comic book trends cropping up, attempting over and over to reinvent Thor, and make him more edgy. You can learn a lot by looking at comic book covers.
