Sabon's & Eleventh Hour: Scent of a Woman

2009-03-24T15:29:00.000-07:00

One of the newest and most watched TV shows of the season is Eleventh Hour on CBS. It is about a scientist and his FBI handler that stop plots and scientific nightmares from happening all with a little comic relief. If you have not yet seen it you can watch it on Hulu or re-runs show every once in a while. If you loved X-Files you will enjoy Eleventh Hour.

Perfume To Kill For
Eleventh Hour has covered many ways to kill a person but one caught my eye (or nose). A perfume scientist makes a scent that drives men to kill to be with the women that puts on the perfume. In this episode of Eleventh Hour, four homicides during fashion week due to sudden fits of rage lead to Doctor Hood being asked to investigate. With Marley Shelton (Rachel Young) and Rufus Sewell (Jacob Hood) this becomes a scent for murder.

Perfume To Die For
How does killer perfume and Sabon's mix? Sabon has reed diffusers that are to die for (not literally). Sabon's Aroma Reed fragrance diffuser sticks, a new age of home fragrance, enhance the sensuality of the home. Strips of bamboo absorb and diffuse natural fragrance from Provence. As the smell wafts in your home the fragrance will replace that wet dog smell.

Sabon's offers a natural bath, fragrance & body boutique to buy the best in skin care products such as natural body scrubs, aromatherapy oils, scented oil diffusers and reed diffusers.

If you are looking for a way to get men to suddenly become overcome by these scents and want to be with you, Sabon offers bath, scrubs, liquid soaps, lotions, oils, candles, soaps, beauty products, and fragrances.

Did you miss Valentine's Day? Or are you in the dog house? Pick up some fragrances from Sabon's and show your wife or girlfriend that you care about them enough to buy the very best.

Conficker C: Wild West Meets IT Security

2009-03-24T15:14:00.000-07:00

A computer-science wild west story is playing out on the Internet as security experts try to hunt down a worm called Conficker C and prevent it from damaging millions of computers on April Fool's Day.

The anti-worm researchers have come together to search for the malicious software program's author and for ways to do damage control if he or she can't be stopped. They're motivated in part by a $250,000 bounty from Microsoft.

The program could delete all of the files on a person's computer, use zombie PCs to overwhelm and shut down Web sites or monitor a person's keyboard strokes to collect private information like passwords or bank account information.

Does this mean we shouldn't log onto the Internet on April's Fools Day? Maybe you should update your Internet Virus Software and consider increasing your Firewall security on April 1, 2009. Better Safe Than Sorry.

Who Called My Phone?

2009-03-21T18:29:00.000-07:00

Have you been getting annoying prank calls from the same number over and over? Do telemarketers call you every night during dinner? Want to call them back and bug them instead?

WhoCalledMyPhone is a website for finding and sharing information about phone numbers used by telemarketers, debt collectors and other intrusive callers. Type in a phone number that's been calling you and search to read and write comments about this phone number.

This is a pretty good idea, just don't end up getting your own number listed on this website. I wonder if there are any celebrity numbers on the list?

Facebook Redesign Gets Negative Feedback

2009-03-20T17:52:00.000-07:00

Facebook needs to do a better job easing users into this new redesign. Maybe it is implemented to compliment Facebook Connect. However, many were not too happy with the redesign and though it was too Twitter-like.

Facebook Filtering Lists
If Facebook wants people to do their own filtering using lists, it needs to make sure they know how. That's why above the feed filters, there should be two options: One to show you the news feed after the redesign, and one "legacy feed" below to show you just the core Facebook elements that were previously in the news feed prior to the redesign. In effect, this would be the "training" mechanism and is critical before the real flood of information starts coming in through Facebook Connect.

3D LCD TV - In Living Rooms Shortly

2009-03-19T08:45:00.000-07:00

At the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, four of the top selling TV manufacturers--Samsung Electronics, Sony, LG Electronics and Panasonic--showed off their latest versions of 3D TVs. Panasonic set up a mini-home theater where its 103-inch, plasma 3D screen showed clips from Journey to the Center of the Earth and Walt Disney Pictures' animated film Bolt. Panasonic also showed high-definition 3D footage from the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing.

Hollywood 3D
TV makers believe that much of the demand for 3D will come from Hollywood, which is pushing 3D. Last year, DreamWorks announced that all its films will be produced for 3D production beginning in 2009. DreamWorks has partnered with Intel to build processors that will help make 3D in the home a reality.

Phenomenal!
The Panasonic's home theater in 3D at the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show was really entertaining, the experience was phenomenal. I felt like I was on the floor at the Olympics opening ceremonies in Beijing right alongside the hundreds of dancers and drummers. But without the glasses, the image looked fuzzy (The only draw back to 3D)

Picture This: DeSantis Holsters in Action

2009-03-18T12:06:00.000-07:00

Even the most advanced technology needs accessories. Future weapons need holsters and LA Police Gear offers quality.

DeSantis Holsters
DeSantis products are appealing and functional. DeSantis Gunhide is the holster of choice for a wide range of agencies from the Department of Homeland Security to our brave men and women overseas. Made from the highest quality leather and created with precision craftsmanship, Desantis holsters are ideal for any weapon.

Unfortunately the holster doesn't stop a dog from biting you in the bottom. That takes a different type of technology, or a steak as you see in the movies. Maybe some peanut butter like in Beverly Hills Cop?

First impressions: Palm Pre

2009-03-18T11:58:00.000-07:00

The Palm Pre and Palm Web OS were announced at CES 2009. It's no secret that Palm's been struggling to keep up with the competition and has come under heavy criticism for its lack of innovation and delays in releasing its new operating system.

The real highlight of the Pre is the user interface and OS with the various swiping gestures and cool animated motions. It's beautiful and smooth, and just plain cool. It's evident that Palm put a lot of thought into the UI, as everything seamlessly works together to give you the best user experience and making the smartphone a really useful tool.

Palm took a bit of a gamble announcing the product early at CES 2009 and not closer to its release date, which is expected some time during the first half of 2009. You can pre-register for Palm Pre at Sprint's Web site. You can check out of Palm Pre photo gallery.
