Kodak debuts world's first wireless OLED picture frame

That digital picture frame on your desk is looking a little bulkier this morning. Kodak just announced a new kind of frame that uses an OLED (organic light-emitting diode) screen instead of an LCD. OLEDs, as anyone knows, are much thinner than the LCD panels that are typically used in frames, since they don't need a backlight. The 7.6-inch Kodak frame also has a sensor that adjusts the brightness of the screen to match the ambient light, and you get the vivid color that OLEDs are known for.

Hi ho, it doesn't stop there. The frame has Wi-Fi built in, able to connect your home network to access photos on your PC or the Internet. Sweet! If you can e-mail pics right to the frame — like that one from eStarling — we're sold. It has 2GB of memory onboard to store media.

While digital frames still have a lot of problems to overcome if they're ever going to shake their reputation of tacky commodity gadgets, this Kodak OLED frame represents progress, and we're all for that. Is it $999 (the retail price of progress? What the hell — you've got to start somewhere.

Deadliest Sniper Scope Ever!

How do you create the Deadliest Sniper Scope ever? Just add heat

Badass as they are, military snipers are sometimes humbled by heat haze, which can make a clear target look like murky soup. If the boys at DARPA have their way, though, a new kind of sniper scope could turn that haze problem into a hot benefit.

The Super-Resolution Vision System (SRVS) works like this: for fleeting moments, heat haze actually works as a kind of super lens, sharpening and magnifying the object on the other side of it. The SRVS watches for areas of the image that are experiencing this kind of lensing, discarding the rest and assembling a complete picture as it scans the area from moment to moment. The sniper’s eyeball sees only a clear picture, one that’s no longer restricted to the diffraction limit inherent to the scope itself.

An SVRS prototype should be ready by next year, with production units getting to Special Ops units by 2011 — possibly too late to see any real action in Iraq. But if the Super Scope, like other military technologies like GPS before it, eventually trickles down to civilian use, expect to someday see some amazing Discovery Channel specials about animal mating habits in the desert.

AQUA - AQUARIUS (2000)

On Aquarium, Aqua were "Barbie Girls"; now they're "Cartoon Heroes." A slight change in context for their second album, but, essentially, it's business as usual. And let's not forget that Aqua do this slapstick kiddie-pop thing with a lot more panache than their shamelessly novelty Euro-goons peers. The relentless zaniness of Aquarius may sometimes be cloying, especially those too-chirpy chipmunk voices on "Cartoon Heroes," but there's no denying that this is a pop group that really lives this pop lark--shaved-headed frontman Rene really does talk in that comedy growl and frontwoman Lene really doesn't wear more than a stretched scrap of PVC whenever she leaves the house. This makes Aquarius quite likeable, actually--especially on the slapstick-trance workout of "Around the World," which even manages to squeeze in a brief geography lesson.

Track Listing:

1. "Cartoon Heroes" (Claus Norreen, Søren Rasted) – 3:29
2. "Around the World" (Norreen, Rasted) – 3:29
3. "Freaky Friday" (Norreen, Rasted) – 3:45
4. "We Belong to the Sea" (Norreen, Rasted) – 4:18
5. "An Apple a Day" (Norreen, Rasted) – 3:38
6. "Halloween" (Norreen, Rasted, René Dif)– 3:51
7. "Good Guys" (Norreen, Rasted) – 4:00
8. "Back from Mars" (Norreen, Rasted) – 4:05
9. "Aquarius" (Norreen, Rasted) – 4:22
10. "Cuba Libre" (Norreen, Rasted, Dif) – 3:38
11. "Bumble Bees" (Norreen, Rasted) – 3:53
12. "Goodbye to the Circus" (Norreen, Rasted) – 4:00

The Kingdom (2007) - DVDRip

The KingdomThe movie explores conflict in the Middle East, specifically Saudi Arabia. It is loosely based on the true life events of an investigation by the FBI into a 1996 terrorist attack on the Khobar Towers in Dhahran. The Kingdom begins with an attack on a housing compound for US citizens working in Riyadh. During this attack, an FBI agent is killed along with hundreds of other US citizens, including women and children. The attack prompts an investigation by the FBI who sends a special team to investigate the bombing and catch the people responsible. While in Riyadh, the team is faced with obstacles caused by cultural differences as well as other things. The FBI team has only five days to complete their mission and must quickly overcome all obstacles, as they themselves become the main target of the terrorist cell responsible for the bombing. This movie gives an insight on both sides of the coin of what terrorism does to the countries, the communities and families involved.
