There has been some news lately that a guy from colorado won a jackpot of USD 245,000 from an online casino. The best part is it is not a scam it is true. This guy actually did receive his money. Most online casinos are real and are not scams there are ways to actually detect these scam sites. The best way is to actually not simply search for an online casino and enter the first one that you see. The easiest way is to go to online casino listing sites like the one at the link I provided.

This site has a list of most of the genuine online casinos and not only that it also gives out reviews on each and every site that it has on the list. The types of information that they give out is their ( editor ) rating, customer rating, extra bonusses that you are able to get when you join and payout ratings.

It also lists out the types of games that each and every casino has. This site is so easy on the eyes compared to many of those sites where the main theme is black and everything is so dark that makes you think is it real. This site is plain and simple. Everything you need to know regarding that particular online casino could be found here.

They even have a beginners guide so that your pocket wont hurt so much when you are just trying out your luck without the proper knowledge on gambling. In fact if you see properly there is always some banner or another that they are promoting for a new online casino that will give you a big bonus when you join up. I just tried my luck and got one which offered me 500 Pounds for just joing with 50 Pounds. I put the whole bet on blackjack in one go and won with just 20 points. I made 1100 Pounds in 20 minutes of signing up. Then my bets went smaller and I also tried my luck on other games. I ended up with 900 Pounds of earning in one day. Not bad I can say.

Most probably I will cash out when I get about 2000 Pounds .

The Love Of My Life Philips

 Have you ever wanted a handphone that does not run out of batteries. No way you are going to get one unless it is solar powered and even so I am not so sure when it will be made available. But here is one that runs on normal AAA batteries. So when your power is low just go to the nearest 7/11 and get yourself that needed power.

Philips’ latest handset - Xenium 9@9j, which they have demoed at this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona is also another mobile phone that has excellent battery life, which can last more than a month on standby, similar to other Philips cellphones in the 9@9j series. Besides, the long battery life, the cellphone can use standard AAA battery as the alternative power source. This is a great idea, as AAA batteries can be easily obtained from any grocery shops while your phone is running dry of battery during emergency.

Actually, the Philips Xenium 9@9j does not operate on the AAA battery. It uses advanced power management technology that makes use of the standard AAA battery as a backup only to lengthen the life of its Li-Ion battery, which is the battery used for its operation. Once the Li-Ion battery is running out of juice, the standard backup AAA battery will start kicking in and feeding the Li-Ion with power so your phone operation will not be interrupted.

The single AAA battery can boost the talk time and standby time from 2 hours to 8 hours and one week to a month respectively.

My heart cries out but my wallet cries even louder. Is this handphone in anyway beautiful? The simplicity kills me. It is beautiful. Because it will leave a mark in my wallet when I get it. This handphone costs about 1500 Pounds Sterling.

Mobiado has produced an overly expensive cellphone with average features for average men, which carries a whopping price tag of £1,500. The only uniqueness of this cellphone is its body is made of the same materials that make up airplanes. Other than this it comes with pretty average features that you can find on any other cellphone. The phone is called “Stealth”. The phone has a pretty old fashion body and the keypad seems to be not so friendly for your fingers.

The Stealth runs on Symbian Series 40 technology. It’s got a 2.0-megapixel camera that is capable of 8x digital zoom, a QVGA 262,144 colour screen with 320×240 pixels, Bluetooth, is tri-band GSM network enabled and features the usual music and media player. The internal memory is poorly low, which is 6MB and it comes with an included microSD card of 64MB. Of course, since it’s equipped with microSD slot, you can then purchase card with much higher capacity to store your media.

What else can you ask of iPhone. First it was the piano then came the guitar and now it is the drums.

The drum machine application on iPhone was developed by MooTheCow, and he gave it a simple name called “Drummer”. Besides, iPhone, it runs on iPod Touch too. Drummer allows you to play up to 15 unique audio samples (one on each finger touch pad). Similar to other musical apps on the Appe gadgets, it takes the advantage of the multi-touch capabilities, so you can play up to five sounds at once. And also, it allows you to play along with MP3. It comes with pre-installed sound sets including Rock, Dance, Electro and Jazz. You can also update with your own sample sounds easily.

Anyway, this drummer app is still on its BETA version, which is still unavailable for download for a try on your jailbroken iPhone yet. But you can get yourself prepared by reading more on MooCowMusic, keep an eye on it and be the first one to get when it gets released.

I have always been a fan of room relaxation. Some people dont believe that you should have a tv in your room if you want to relax in it. Most probably they do not have a 50″ Full HD LCD TV in their room and that is the reason.

Another interesting find I have found was regarding glow in the dark paint that you are able to immitate the night clear sky on the ceiling of your bedroom. Have not seen this in real life but have always wanted to although the paint is a little too pricey for me. Was trying to negotiate with the seller for months but to no avail. If you are interested it could be found at www.glowinc.com .

The post today is regarding the RelaxStyle Lamp which is one great gadget to get you fully relieved with your stress after a hard day of work. The projection of this lamp on the walls or ceilings resembles undulating waves, which gives you the feeling of being submerged in shallow water, looking up into the surface of the water.

Acabion GTBO - a jet-fighter-shaped vehicle has claimed the title of world’s fastest road vehicle. Acabion GTBO can reach 300 mph within 30 seconds only and its top speed is 340 mph. This vehicle is considered as the fusion of a four wheeler. On each side of the rear wheel are two mini wheels. The creator of this two wheeler calls it a “road streamliner”.

The body of this super fast vehicle is shaped like a jet figther. Basically the entire design is taking from aerodynamic techniques used in aerospace design, such as the cockpit is designed like one found in jet plane. The GTBO is about 90mph quicker than its nearesr rival, the Bugatti Veyron, which needs 55 seconds to pick up to its top speed, 250mph.

The GTBO carries an astonishing 800 brake horsepower in its 1,300cc turbo-charged engine. And it amazingly weighs just 700lbs, which is only half the weight of an original Mini. Having light weight body is definitely part of the purposes to maximize its power and to be aerodymanically efficient.

The creator of this super fast vehicle is a German, Dr Peter Maskus, who is an ex-Porsche engineer. But it seems like it will take about three years to hit the roads of UK and the USA. And somemore carrying a whopping price of £1.5million or $3 million.
