The weather may be getting chilly, but that doesn't mean you should sacrifice your favorite music! These furry Ear Muff Headphones ($20) keep your ears warm while playing music through their built-in headphones. They also have an extra-long cord, so you can keep your MP3 player in your bag or pocket - which mean no cold hands! I can't wait to don these during the snowy weather this Winter. I can't...

By Matthew Nelson Bonfire night is not just a stressful time for straw effigies. Highly strung dogs across the country are just as likely to lose sleep over the loud bangs that November the 5th brings. But help is at hand as a new invention allows you to keep your dog within earshot of fireworks- but [...]

After some unseasonably warm weather, we’ve now hit winter in the UK. I love the sunshine, but there’s something lovely about getting wrapped up in a coat, gloves and a hat and braving the cold. I’m a big fan of hats, but sometimes you don’t want to go into class or work with hat hair. This is why this year, I will be rocking the ear muffs. They’re cute, kitsch and you...

Visqueen, Throw Me the Statue, Little Cuts (Crocodile) Visqueen traffics in a highly pleasurable blend of hard-crunching melodic guitar rock—imagine a woman with the voice of an angel and a Cheap Trick fixation hijacking the Fastbacks (whose Kim Warnick once played in the band) to re-create the Muffs' cover of Kim Wilde's "Kids in America" and you'll hear Visqueen. What makes the band...

Everyone certainly got caught up in the hype didn't they? Miami was a team that some predicted to go 0-4 to start the season when looking at the gauntlet schedule of at FSU, Georgia Tech, at Virginia Tech, and Oklahoma. Yet after two big wins the ridiculous rants came in from all sides. The worst among them were (not surprisingly) from Canes fans. Check any message board or comments section from a...

The Patriots' rousing 25-24 win over Buffalo last night reminds us that luck is also the residue of your opponent's bad design. While Leodis McKelvin's decision to return the kickoff he wound up fumbling to blow the game for the Bills is a debatable issue, please put me firmly down on the side of the debate which calls it a major error in judgment. It's a risk management-return on investment question...

I try to focus my attention on companies and pundits in the search and content processing sectors. I need to make a slight modification. The GigaOM write up “5 Things We Learned From the Gmail Outage” snagged my attention. I think I see the purpose of the article; that is, provide a semi-oracular spin on [...]

Players hate them. Most fans hate them. Coaches use them to evaluate talent, but live in fear of losing a starter to injury in a “meaningless” game. About the only folks who love the NFL preseason games are people who make money off them (owners, broadcasters, vendors, etc.) and me. Why [...]

So, I decided to place together a mix of some of my favorite cover records, for a mix swap (which is theoretical, at this point). And then I decided to stick with a theme of unusual and unexpected covers. And then I ended up expanding my set to two mixes (ie., enough tunes to fill two 80-minute CD-Rs). And so it goes. It happens. Though I am stretching the definition of "unusual" and "unexpected"...
