Part of home sweet home’s “sweet” characteristics are kids having a blast playing, throwing toys and things in different directions, or running around the house endlessly chasing one another. These are joyous moments, undoubtedly. But more often than not, these very same occasions take their toll on helpless household appliance and equipment. Like the HD TV.
The good news is: we can now say goodbye to the scary thoughts of sticky fingers, scratches and splashes, cracks and other forms of impact damage to our television screens.

These new sunglasses use a 1.3 megapixel camera along with a rechargeable Li-ion and are perfect for taking pictures of someone without them knowing. The camera is controlled through a small remote control that also enables you to listen to MP3s, so you’ll be entertained while in a surveillance mission :)
The camera captures still images at a 1280 X 1024 resolution and has a 1GB storage space. They include USB 2.0 connectivity and a pair of earbuds for the entertaining part. Because of the pretty noticeable modules flanking the sides, I don’t know would take someone before blowing your cover, but you’d better be quick.

The Speedo swimsuit is creating serious waves all over the world after eight more records were broken in the past month by athletes using the ‘magic’ swimsuit. When it was used for the first time in competitions from Australia and Missouri, 2 American records and 3 world records fell.
The Speedo representatives were summoned by the International Swimming Federation to explain how the suit manages to give such an advantage to the swimmers that wear it. They were first suspected of cheating, but none of them turned positive on the doping tests, so the suit was found responsible for their performances.
Speedo defend themselves saying that although the suit gives the athletes an advantage, that is the nature of sports. They gave examples from athletics, as the snickers runners wear or the composition of running tracks. They also state that everyone has access to the suit, so the best swimmer should still win the race.
After the Swimming Federation will hear the officials out, I wonder what their decision would be? If they decide the suit is fine, then all the swimmers will have to buy it to match their opponents. If they say that it’s not good for the racers, then what would be the consequences? Will all the awards won with the swimsuit be withdrawn? We are looking forward to updates on the subject.
