Mahmoud Abbas: We Will NEVER Recognize Israel as a Jewish State -Are You Listening Obama?
September 18, 2011 No Comment
Palestinian President “the moderate terrorist” Mahmoud Abbas says he will seek full membership to the United Nations next Friday. The United States has promised to veto the move making the bid unsuccessful. Keep in mind however, that it was the misguided policies of the Obama administration that helped bring us to this point. The Obama administration’s call for a settlement freeze that gave the Palestinians… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : YID With LID Discovery Date : 18/09/2011 07:23 Number of articles : 2

Zoochosis: Bears from Zoochosis on Vimeo. Oh the majesty and wonder of bears in their natural habitat! During summer they come out in groups to forage for stray containers of peanut butter and honey drippings. But don’t fear their hunger—they’re actually gentle giants who are as curious about you as you are about them.

September 18, 2011 No Comment
It’s not hard to find a good inductive charging smartphone these days, but German IT student Qian Qin absolutely had to have the feature on his Galaxy S Plus . What’s more, it needed to be just right: no voiding of the warranty and no unsightly protrusions. So, instead of bumping his gums, he went out and purchased a Palm Pre back cover and a Touchstone dock for €30 ($40), ripped the charging circuit out of the Pre cover and stuck it into the Samsung’s cover, then finally soldered a wire from the circuit to the micro-USB port (plus another wire to the microSD slot for 0V). Job done. At first, the mere mention of a webOS device gave us a twinge of sadness , but then the video after the break cheered us right up again — you can tell within the first six seconds that this guy is a pure OCD perfectionist. You’ll also find more detailed instructions at the source link, and they should work equally well for the original Galaxy S too.

The successor to Sony’s underappreciated Netbox was introduced at IFA recently, and now the company has revealed pricing for the SMP-N200 in the United States. It’ll be on sale for $99 in October, and updates the old box with support for 3D, live streaming content and other unspecified new features. The original featured then-impressive support for local media playback and streaming, but does the Blu-ray-less wonder does it have what it takes in 2011? If it has a UI refresh and access to comparable sources thanks to Sony’s now streamlined Video Unlimited / Music Unlimited media approach then this could play well as a one-two punch with a connected PC, phone or tablet . We’ll find out next month, check out the details after the break or our hands on pics from CEDIA here .

September 18, 2011 No Comment
This it NOT what you would expect from a traditional valedictorian speech. Hopefully people, especially young people, are starting to wake up to just how corrupt and broken at its core, the US educational system is. Alas, tangentially, as the following data from Stone McCarthy indicates, there is little danger that the revelations captured in this video are anywhere near widespread, courtesy of record… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : zero hedge Discovery Date : 18/09/2011 19:45 Number of articles : 2

This is Elizabeth Warren, at the beginning of 2007 (you can safely skip to 4:50 if you’re not interested in the lecture setting).

It’s not as cool as Chipzilla’s other augmented reality project , but at least this one exists out in the real world. Present at select storefronts, the camera-based AR tech uses image recognition on Lego boxes to superimpose their brick-ladden contents in fully animated form. New at IDF was the second generation of the already existing product, which despite being functionally identical to its predecessor, has now been miniaturized thanks to second generation Core processors. Ready to see it in action? Peep the gallery below and the video after the break. Myriam Joire contributed to this report.
