Thanko MP3 player - the player that fits into your ears...

This new Mp3 player from Thanko is more like a bluetooth hearing device but exactly it is an MP3 player that stores and plays songs for you. This is the newest in its kind and probably the smallest of the lot. Weighing .28 ounces, Thanko MP3 player is definitely the leanest player around and its widest part measures not more than 1 inch.

Thanko MP3 player has the support for MP3/WMA/WAV music and it comes in two sizes. The 2GB version will cost you $55 and the 4GB version costs you $75. This new tiny-miny player is equipped with a battery that will run for 4hrs nonstop before it dies out. It is the small size of the player that is going to appeal to its audience. Should wait and see how it is performing in the long run.

Who says frogs don't eat light???

up loader comments:

This is a Cuban tree frog on a tree in my backyard in southern Florida. How and why he ate this light is a mystery. It should be noted that at the time I was taking this photo, I thought this frog was dead, having cooked himself from the inside. I'm happy to say I was wrong. After a few shots he adjusted his position. So after I was finished shooting him, I pulled the light out of his mouth and he was fine. Actually, I might be crazy but I don't think he was very happy when I took his light away.

Beware Of Fake Eggs In The Market...

Cases of problem foods and food poisoning are widely reported in Mainland China over the last few years. In 2001, there were 185 cases of food poisoning, affecting about 15,715 people and causing 146 deaths. The cases doubled in 2002. In 2003, the number of reported cases was ten times more than that in 2001, and the number of people suffered was as high as 29,660, including 262 deaths Now In Sept 2008 Nearly 53,000 Chinese children sick from contaminated milk; 4 have died

In China there are fake schools and classes that teach a variety of blatant fraud technology, even eggs can be modulated by chemical materials, but also be able to fry cook, is currently the most popular False course.

Step 1 modulation of raw materials

Using 7 kinds of chemical materials, see pic below

Fake egg was made from calcium carbonate, starch, resin, gelatin, alum and other chemical products.

Step 2 egg production
Raw egg into the mold to 2 / 3 full, put calcium chloride, colouring die, the egg appears on the film been announced.

The 'yolk' is shaped in the round mould. 'Magic water' containing calcium chloride is used.

By adding a yellow pigment and become raw egg yolk.

Step 3 fake egg shape

In the mold into 1 / 3 raw egg white, like the first package, like dumplings into the egg yolk, egg white into another, into the magic water, a shell eggs will come slowly. Naked egg shape to 1 hour to dry after washing with water, at shells ready.

Step 4
Sewing lines through the use of eggs, immersed in paraffin wax, calcium carbonate, such as modulation of the eggshell into a solution, repeated several times until the shell a little dry, immersion in cold water pumping line shape, this point, the egg has been put on a false cloak , You're done.

Hard shells are formed by soaking in paraffin wax onto the egg, which are then left to dry.

Oh yeah The Egg is ready. The artificial egg shell is very fragile and break easily but who cares!!
Look so real

Many small bubbles is formed during frying the egg but not many people can tell the difference.
The egg look exactly the same, and the eggs taste better than real but you are adding to the
statistic of food poisoning person.

Why make fake eggs ?
Because of money.

The cost of fake egg is only 0.55 Yuan/kg, while the true eggs’ market price is 5.6 Yuan/kg.

Earth-Like planet discovered in another solar system!!!

Scientists are one group who always amaze me by their new findings every other day. Now they are upto something really interesting. They have found out a planet that is earthlike. By earth like they mean that it is made of rocks in the first place and it rotates around a star similar to our sun. That means this planet belongs to another solar system just like our own solar system. May be I should give this new system a name of my own. But I dont want to steal their greatness.

This new planet is named CoRoT-7b, which was discovered last year made the scientists work for several months before they could determine its structure and composition. If you are planning an outing onto this planet think again. The day time temperatures here are a blazing 2,000 degrees celsius and the night time temperatures are a freezing -200 degrees celsius. You definitely can't survive there as of now. Just thought to share with you.

Multi-touch laptops from Lenovo, things are getting hot in here....

With the release of Windows 7 around the corner, Lenovo has introduced two new versions of its pre-existing laptop models but with a pinch of flavor added to them. Lenovo has made its laptops touch smart. I mean they now have touch screens in them and not just touch but multi-touch is added to them.

The new X200 laptop has a faster Core2Duo processor and can be handled by two finger multi-touch. The later version T400s is a step ahead and it can handle upto four finger multi-touch capability. But with all this pretty stuff in place, there will definitely be a bang on your purse and the prices go as $1999 for the T400s and $1729 for the X200 version. There is also another version of X200 with the outdoor screen option but it will cost you a little more at $1779. Wait till the laptops are in your lap and then review them in the comments. All your comments are most welcome.

By the way this is "Adi", your new author, will try to post an article every day. Most will be lifts from my own blog, but will try to be innovative here as well.
