Apple’s 2014 roadmap was laid out in pretty considerable detail by KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo earlier this week in an investor note, and while ordinarily analyst predictions aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on, Kuo has a solid track record of actually getting things right. Among Kuo’s predictions are larger iPhones, a Retina MacBook Air, improved Apple TV,… Read More

At first glance, this appears to be a fairly plain old wooden table—but wait, I can you see the leg through the table top? That’ll be because this wooden table is actually made from glass.
I know that there are some fantasy items that can never be replicated in the real world, simply because it is not all that easy to bend or even suspend the laws of physics unless you are a deity yourself. With the $49.99 Harry Potter Deluminator, your imagination is required in order to have it “function” accordingly. Basically, the Harry Potter Deluminator happens to be an authentic prop replica of Dumbledore’s Deluminator which was bequeathed to Ron Weasley, where the top will flip up to show off a tiny LED within, making it the most stylish small flashlight out there.
Harry Potter fans will definitely fall for it, I am sure, where the size fits perfectly into your pocket without missing a beat, while the top of the Deluminator will flip back with a simple switch in order to reveal the light captured inside. As you ought to be aware by now, this is impossible in making a room dark, other than when there is a power failure or a fuse trip in your home. Powered by a trio of LR44 button cell batteries that come included to help you get started right out of the box, non-Harry Potter fans will probably question its relatively strange design.

Last week we gave you some fun flash games to play around with for the weekend. This week, we have a few more games for you to test out. We came across these games from a comment Darshan made last week… so thanks Darshan!The only minor complication– the games and instructions are in French! But.. it’s not too difficult to figure out the object of the game. The only words you really need to know are:
When you’re viewing the list of games, look for the English version. It’s hit or miss, and most games don’t have an English version available. So.. on to the games. They come from www.zanorg.com, and are good challenges for your brain! First on the list…
This game simply requires the “e”, “d”, “o”, and “k” keys. Your job is to keep both balls in play! It might appear easy at first, but once the balls get some speed to them, it’s hard for your brain to keep up with both sides of the screen!
If my translation is correct, this translates into a game for secretaries. With this game you have one minute to press the correct key on the keyboard. The twist is that the letters are in random places. Natural instinct is to press the key that they show in the picture. For example, in the picture below, they light up the letter Q which is in the “A” spot on a standard keyboard. In instinctively want to press the A instead of where the Q is actually located. If you’re not familiar with the standard keyboard, this could be pretty difficult! My record was 84 keys in the minute.
I don’t know what the translation is, but I’ll just call it “invisible mouse” because that’s what happens! You start out by clicking the button. After you’ve clicked the button, your mouse disappears, and a butterfly appears. You have to blindly lead yourself to the butterfly. When it lights up, you click it, and then you move on to the next round! It consistently gets trickier with new road blocks set up in the way. You have to have good control over your mouse to be good at this one!
Play “invisible mouse” / La souris est invisible
The next game reminds me of miniature golf. The object of the game is to get the ball into the hole. There’s an arrow attached to the ball which allows you to point it in any direction that you’d like. Click to release the ball. The longer you hold down the click, the more powerful the ball will move. Just like a miniature golf course, this game gets trickier as you go along. You’re give a certain amount of turns to get the ball into the hole!
The last game on the list is a 3D course which simply requires you to get the ball from the top down to the bottom of the course without falling off the edge. You use arrows to control the ball! You have to be quick with your fingers to keep the ball from going overboard!
Hope you enjoy the games for today, they definitely give your brain a good workout!
