Yo-Yo wireless mouse concept charges with the flick of a wrist, saves your back (Engadget)
We’ve seen plenty of round mice, including Apple’s infamous puck, and many
devices that derive power from a yo-yo-like pull string mechanism. So we’re
not quite sure why we’ve never seen those two concepts married before. In
retrospect, a wireless mouse charged by the kinetic energy of using it as a
yo-yo seems like a painfully obvious idea. As an added bonus, this tiny
pointer with an LCD battery gauge makes you get up every so often and get your
limbs moving — thus saving you from chromic back pain. Huzzah! Of course,
there’s no guarantee you’ll ever actually see one of these on shelves. Check
out the source for a few more pics.

After all, he’s penned two of today’s finest modern praise songs (“Great Is the Lord” and “Agnus Dei”), and he was the creative genius behind Exodus, a brilliant collection of worship material. Yet that same artistic spirit seems sadly lacking on Worship, Smith’s first solely praise and worship release. All par… |

String Quartets $199.99 This set received the 1998 Grammy Award for “Best Chamber Music Performance.” It was also nominated for the Award for “Best Classical Album.”Beethoven’s string quartets sit atop the world of classical music. While he adopted the symphony as a platform for public statements, Beethoven’s more elusive schemes went into the quartets, especially the five he wrote in his last years, which are marvels of unparalleled concentration. The cycle of 15 presents enough interpretive and technical challenges to keep performers and listeners occupied for a lifetime.The Emerson String Quartet is one of the world’s elite groups, their virtues well known: power, rhythmic command and razor sharp ensemble. They are well attuned to the music’s volatility, its abrupt changes of mood and often brash nature, and are particularly exciting in the fast movements. They do not go for excessive warmth of tone nor do they seek to find mysteries beyond what is written on the page, but what is there is illuminated forcefully, so that even in the heat of the “Grosse Fuge” lines are clearly maintained. This set represents a considerable achievement. |
