All I Want For Christmas...

...is a nice warm bed.

That Christmas wish was realized by some "homeless living outside" in Colorado Springs, CO as a donor with the name of "Linda Craft" bought rooms for 15 people.  No one of that name could actually be found, so it's believed that this was a fake name given.

Four rooms were used "for homeless" people because of this "St Nick's" generosity, and visions of a nice warm meal most likely will dance in their heads as they sleep comfortably through the night.


Isn't this what Christmas is all about....GIVING? 

Merry Christmas!

Sprint Error 2112 Outage: Cannot Send SMS

Has the Sprint Error 2112 been fixed yet?  This is the answer many are looking for right now.

Technology can not only enhance our lives, but can also miserably fail us, even if it is just a simple outage like the Sprint Error 2112 Cannot Send SMS that people are getting.

The error is all over the web, but I couldn't find anything on Sprint's website under their support area.  Instead all I found was "Sorry, No Answers Found" when I simply searched the error number 2112.  The link to Sprint's support area is here for your convenience:  Sprint Support.

Creepy Looking Ronald McDonald Photo

I just witnessed one of the creepiest looking pictures ever.  It's a mock up of a Ronald McDonald baby (his son perhaps) with his tech gadgets around.

The article by Engadget had a purpose of sharing the news of approximately 11,000 McDonald's restaurants offering free Wireless Internet (a.k.a. WiFi) instead of it's previous charge of $2.95 for two hours rate.

However, the real story in the comments that followed became the really creepy Ronald McDonald Baby Photo!

I think my childhood memories of happy meals have now been somehow invaded and distorted due to this image.

It's one that you just have to see for yourself right here:  Creepy Ronald McDonald Photo.

But once you see it, you can't "unsee" it. :)  I'm not "lovin' it".

Zeo Sleep Monitor Does Not Actually HELP You Sleep

The much publicized and interesting invention, the Zeo Sleep Monitor does not actually help you sleep, but rather records your sleep patterns and acts as a personal sleep coach.

With the Zeo Headband attached to your head while you sleep (using the patent-pending SoftWave technology), you can daily monitor your sleep patterns, something that has never been a home possibility before.  Most have gone to "Sleep Clinics" to find such a technology, but the Zeo Sleep Monitor allows you to do this from the comfort of your own home, in your own bed.  I've heard of people that had different sleeping patterns at a Sleep Clinic than what they would have in their accustomed home environment.  I believe this will be a great product for those who continually lack sleep.

Sleep disorders are very common today with many people getting 6 hours or less of quality sleep.

For a full description of this new technology and the steps taken once you purchase one, check out MyZeo.com.

What is WiTricity?

Imagine wireless power....or wireless electricity if you will.  Imagine being able to charge your cell phone WITHOUT physically plugging it in to a cell phone charger.

This technology is becoming a normal reality for the new company WiTricity,  by Marin Soljačić the inventor, as he was annoyed by his wife's Nokia cell phone that would beep whenever it needed charged.  There it lay, so close to an electrical outlet, the very thing it needed, yet it had no way of getting that electricity.

With support from his employer, MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), started up WiTricity.

The idea is based off of coils that can turn electricity into magnetic energy, and then back to electricity.

Is wireless electricity coming to a home near you?  Maybe sooner than we think.

If you'd like to learn more about the basics of wireless electricity, check out WiTricity's website.

Creator of First 50 Star American Flag Passes Away

There are so many things we tend to take for granted as Americans.  Our freedoms, our way of life, and even our flag.

The creator of the First 50 Star American Flag passed away at age 67.  Robert G. Heft is credited with the design that took him over 12 hours on a Singer sewing machine.  It was done as a school project, that later was chosen by President Dwight D. Eisenhower to replace the 48 Star American Flag.


This post is in honor to Mr Heft.

Zhu Zhu Hamster Toy Is Unsafe, Labeled "Toxic"

One of the hottest toys this Christmas Shopping Season, the Zhu Zhu Hamster, has been labeled as toxic by watchdog group Good Guide.

According to GoodGuide.com, there is an unsafe chemical called antimony that makes the toy unsafe.

The St Louis based company Cepia llc stands to find many consumers returning this product this year due to it's unsafe parts per million rating of 93 million in the fur, and 103 in the nose.

Although you don't have to return the product, since the danger seems to be in children touching the toy, and then touching their own mouth, or putting the toy in their own mouth, it is advised to reconsider this item as a gift.

Google Trends Not Updating Today?

If you are a watcher of hot trends on Google Trends, you'll notice that today that as of right now, it hasn't updated since about 13 hours ago.

Normally, Google Trends are updated every hour, so why not today? Could it have anything to do with the search warrants served at Google, Inc and Yahoo today? The warrants were served in connection with the Illinois man who secretly video recorded ESPN reporter Erin Andrews.

I truly hope authorities find what they are looking for, and that this person pays for his crimes and invasion of privacy.
