This is why I love Google!
They are inovative, they exude a can do attitude, and are relentless in their research
and development. This is why they have left Microsoft looking more like one of our
infamously bureaucratic ministries than a software company. Their latest product looks
amazing, and if it does what they say in the video i'm sure it would be a huge hit.

Porsche Product Plan to 2013 Revealed
Autocar appears to have come into Porsche's future plans. The following is a supposed outline of what the company wants to bring to market.The year 2010 sees the arrival of the Panamera V6 turbodiesel. Since this is an entry-level car (price is speculated at about £60,000) meant to be frugal, it will probably not use AWD but send power to the rear wheels.
The Volkswagen-borrowed engine could be re-engineered and updated so it can also be adapted to the next-generation Cayenne which gets a more curvaceous look like the 911 for 2010. The SUV will feature some engines from the Panamera including direct-injection V8s and a full parallel hybrid. The latter was approved last year but only joins the lineup in 2011.
By 2011 Panamera should be a well-established name and ripe for a hybrid. A similar system to the Cayenne hybrid is likely but without the AWD burden. While the US could get a V8 hybrid, Europe will probably opt for the smaller V6 alternative.
The summer of 2012 welcomes an all-new 911 which will share very little with the current car. Longer and wider, the sports coupe will also be more powerful and more fuel-efficient than ever.
The Cayenne finally gets a smaller sibling in 2013. Rumoured to be called the Roxster, this compact SUV will share Audi Q5 underpinnings and maybe engines. The same year a brand new entry-level Porsche arrives to see the Boxster/ Cayman range move more upmarket.
Having spent quite a substantial amount developing the Panamera, Porsche is keen to spread the platform around and recoup its investment. Possible strategies include creating another model as well as a two-door Cabriolet. Should the board approve we could see it in 2013 as well.
4G Soon!
We are marching slowly but surely towards fourth generation mobile telephony. This spring, Ericsson announced the installation of the first area of LTE networks in Stockholm. This name applies to the technology that will establish the specifications of future very high speed connections. The next step is now being taken with the development of USB devices to enable laptops to connect to the Swedish LTE network. That should be possible from March 2010.The South Korean company Samsung is working on the project directly with Ericsson and will supply the accessories, which are being labelled as 4G. However, in reality it might be more appropriate to describe this technology as "proto-4G". Indeed, the real next-generation mobile network is not expected to come into operation until the end of 2011.
Game of The Week: Bloons Tower Defense 4!!!
After being addicted to the first three games in this series, Ninja Kiwi have finally come out with a fourth insallement. I still remember the guys at the chalet looked like zombies as they were glued to their laptop screens like there was no tomorrow when I told them about the last version in this series.
For those of you who don't know, this is a creative tower defence game in which you use dart-throwing monkeys, and other things to stop baloons from reaching the end of the path. You can also gradually upgrade your weapons to keep up with the ever-increasing number of baloons trying to get through. Be warned, this game is VERY addictive!

Maldivian ministers hold underwater meeting
Members of the Maldives' Cabinet donned scuba gear and used hand signals on Saturday at an underwater meeting staged to highlight the threat of global warming to the lowest-lying nation on earth.
President Mohammed Nasheed and 13 other government officials submerged and took their seats at a table on the sea floor- 6 meters below the surface of a lagoon off Girifushi, an island usually used for military training.
The underwater meeting was held ahead of a major UN climate change conference in December in Copenhagen.

Q8 Offer
All of us love saving money or getting the best deals in anything we want to purchase. In other words we love offers. I was browsing the internet and found a Kuwaiti website that gathered most of the offers found in Kuwait in a single place. It does not have a lot of offers because I guess it is new. Have a look and you might find something that may interest you. http://www.q8offer.com/
Slingbox (Bringing satellite to your mobile)
Ladies and gentlemen I present to you “Slingbox”. Slingbox is a device that enables you to watch your favorite satellite channels on your mobile device. The device is sold for around 50KD on amazon.com. Once you buy the device, you only have to place it near a satellite receiver and connect it to the receiver. The Slingbox device has a component and HDMI slots for you to connect to the receiver. You also have to connect the Slingbox device to the internet and connect some kind of infrared controller to the receiver. Software has to be downloaded from www.slingbox.com in order for you to control the channels on your receiver from you mobile. You can also use Slingbox on your personal computer. I personally tried it and loved it from the first time I used it. I suggest that you give it a shot and try it. You never know maybe it will make your life even better.
2010 Honda VFR 1200F
Tear up the road on the new 2010 Honda VFR 1200F ($TBA; Spring 2010). Expected to get an official intro at the Tokyo Motor Show, the 1200F boasts a 1,237cc liquid-cooled V4 engine good for 172 hp, impressively-sculpted body panels sitting atop a vacuum-molded cast aluminum chassis, Throttle By Wire for increased throttle response, an optional Dual Clutch Automatic Transmission with paddle-style shifters, and a next-generation shaft drive system. We'd recommend ditching the all-black outfit of the rider above, however, lest you be attacked by a confused group of other bike-riding ninjas.

Lexus LF-A
The appointment of racing enthusiast Akio Toyoda as Toyota CEO has breathed new life into the Lexus LF-A project. After being frozen some months ago the car has recently been thawed and spied testing around the Nurburgring. Speculation is that a near-production model will appear at this month's Tokyo Motor Show. Lexus will only confirm that a two-seat supercar will make its world premier at the show. "This concept vehicle epitomizes the purest form of driving exhilaration and performance," a statement says.
The LF-A has been under development since its debut as a concept at the 2005 North American International Auto Show. Back then company top brass spoke of a 200mph sports car to compete with the likes of Porsche 911 Turbo and the Ferrari 430. Since then spies have caught it on and off doing testing around the ‘Ring as well as other places. Word speaks of a V10 powerplant worth over 368kW (500hp).
Great things are expected of Lexus' first ever supercar, not least of all handling prowess. While many manufacturers put cars on the ‘Ring that only belong in a circus ring, the LF-A really needs to be much more if it is to successfully take on established players like the Nissan GT-R. The rumoured V10 with a speculated 405kW (550hp) can be heard twice pulling away from the filling station. Even the shooter can't help but exclaim at the glorious sounds the black and white pair make during their quick getaway.

Other features include a 16:9, LED-backlit LCD display, a multi-touch trackpad, built-in Verizon 3G, 802.11n Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth, SSD storage, a 2GHz Intel processor, GPS, and Windows 7.
Burger King's New Look
As part of a plan to be revealed Wednesday in Amsterdam, the company will announce a massive effort to overhaul its 12,000 locations worldwide. The sleek interior will include rotating red flame chandeliers, brilliant TV-screen menus and industrial-inspired corrugated metal and brick walls.
"I'd call it more contemporary, edgy, futuristic," Chairman and CEO John Chidsey told The Associated Press. "It feels so much more like an upscale restaurant."
But that comes with an upscale price: The new look is expected to cost franchisees, who operate 90 percent of Burger King's locations, between $300,000 to $600,000 per restaurant.
The company said the new design, called "20/20" at the Miami-based chain, is already in place at about 60 locations around the world. Burger King expects about 75 more redesigned restaurants to be open by the end of next year. But it will take years before all its locations are transformed.
Burger King franchise owners are contractually required to update their restaurants after a set period of time, and executives said the redesign will be the primary option for future upgrades. All new restaurants will be built using the plan.
So far, remodeled restaurants have seen sales climb about 12 to 15 percent, while restaurants that are torn down and completely rebuilt at the same location have seen sales climb by as much as 30 percent, Chidsey said.
I guess BK's managment see that its time for a change. So far it seems to be working 12 to 30 percent is no joke but I wonder how long will it last? Will McDonalds jump in on the action? When we will be seeing any of this in kuwait? Sorry about the small picture couldn't find a better one. To read the rest of the article Click Here

Volkswagen Golf R & Scirocco R hit the Racetrack
Volkswagen has released a new video showing their Scirocco R and Golf R in action. The clip is pretty self explanatory, so watch it and enjoy.
As we have previously reported, the Scirocco R has a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with 265 hp and 350 Nm (258 lb-ft) of torque. Connected to six-speed manual transmission (or an optional dual-clutch DSG gearbox), the front-wheel drive hot hatch runs from 0-100 km/h in 6.5 seconds (6.4 seconds with DSG) before hitting an electronically limited top speed of 250 km/h (155 mph).
On the other hand, the Golf R uses a turbocharged 2.0-liter TSI engine (with direction injection) that produces 270 hp and 350 Nm of torque. Despite the weight plenty of all-wheel drive, the car accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 5.7 seconds (5.5 seconds with DSG) before topping out at 250 km/h (155 mph).
The Scirocco R will start arriving at European dealerships this fall, while customers can pre-order the Golf R later this year. I can't wait till they hit Kuwait I know I am considering geting one. What about you?
