This new device, which is currently in development at Carnegie Mellon, will allow users to control devices by tapping parts of their arm/fingers.  It is currently a strap that goes on your bicep, but they hope to get it down to the size of a watch.  In the video they demonstrate how a user could tap parts of their forearm to control an MP3 player, and also how a game like Tetris can be controlled by tapping one’s fingers.

This is the device (Skinput) that straps to your bicep

With things like the Playstation Move coming out, 3D Televisions, and then …

Lady Gaga has a popular new video out called “Telephone” with Beyonce that is extremely controversial (to say the least). The explicit video has transvesites, partial nudity, and mass murder during a disturbing scene where a bloated, unshaven Tyrese is poisoned by Gaga and Beyonce’s “Honey B”……probably because of poor acting, but is the video deeper and more sinister than it appears on the surface? A website called vigilantcitizen.com would have you believe so.

The all-seeing eye beckons me to buy overpriced Lady Gaga earphones !

Mr Vigilant (no one knows his real name, but at least he gets high speed …

In the Summer of 1996  the Ska-punk-reggae trio from Long Beach California were on top of the charts.  Their self-titled album would gain them worldwide airplay, and has since gone five-times Multi-platinum.  With their main stream success came heartbreak, just 2 weeks prior to the release of the album,  lead singer Bradley Nowell died from a heroin overdose.  He had a long been battling heroin addiction, Nowell attempted detoxification and drug rehabilitation several times, but such treatments usually had short-lived success.  With no front-man, the remaining members decided they could no longer continue on as Sublime without Brad.

I guess it is appropriate now to reopen Captain EO at Disneyland as a tribute for Michael Jackson after many fans have been asking Disneyland to bring it back. It reopened February 23, 2010 for a limited time, but I’m not sure how limited. For those that don’t know about Captain EO, it had a run at Disneyland in the 80s and 90s that featured a 3D spectacle with special effects that extended to the audience.

I never saw the attraction back in the day, so everything was going to be new to me. After watching/ experiencing the attraction, I couldn’t …

The Super Bowl is just one week away and what everybody will be talking about for weeks well have nothing to do with the game its self. In less than a month people will have forgotten who even played, but everyone will remember there favorite commercial and the halftime show.

In the pass I’ve loathed the halftime show because I believe it should be meant to inspire, and get the fans and teams riled up for the second half.

With football being a violent sport in nature it’s hard to feel the adrenaline pumping after a performance by Britney Spears.

In this final part of collections we’ll talk about the negative aspects such as selling, loss and not being able to stop.

There are some great photos of collections and some information for you.

Selling: Why would someone sell something that they spent so much money and time on? There are a few reasons why.

1. They NEED money, and a good amount of it NOW. We either get so wrapped up in spending the money to collect things that we don’t realize the bills need to be paid too–it happens… Or emergencies where money is needed and this is the …

Hip Hop just isn’t what it use to be, and you can’t teach old dog new tricks.  Snoop Dogg tries to stay relevant and hip with the kids on his 10th studio album “Malice N Wonderland.”

With hardcore “thugs” like Ice Cube playing blundering father characters in movies like “Are We There Yet?” It’s really hard to take Gansta Rap seriously anymore.  Criminals who were once Crips of Los Angeles are now hilarious host on “Pimp My Ride.”

Have you seen Xzibit on that show, I wouldn’t mind introducing him to my grandma.

The same can be said for Snoop Dogg …

Smoke, firebombs, laser lights and legendary Japanese rock band X Japan had brought the corner of Hollywood and Highland to a stand still.

Notified solely through word of mouth on the Internet, 600 fans poured into the streets to catch a glimpse of their favorite Japanese band and to be apart of filming of the groups music video.

For one night only, the pioneers of Jrock played on top of the Kodak Theater suspended out over the streets below for an extravagant never before seen performance.

This would be the band’s first public US appearance with newly added lead guitarist Sugizo …
