Intel’s latest processor generation is now official, and the 7th generation of Core processors looks to pack a punch. The so-called “Kaby Lake” lineup is the first to follow the new “tick-tock-tock” beat Intel has adopted for processor development, which means it keeps the same 14nm manufacturing process as its predecessor (Skylake), but there’s still lots… Read More
Our smartphones are a whole lot more than just communication tools these days, as they tend to be our personal organizers, not to mention our timekeeper, portable media player that carries both music and videos, in addition to our social networking hub. Well, if you simply cannot live without good music, and would like to share your eclectic tastes with others, LG has just the thing for you with its new range of portable Bluetooth speakers that have been specially designed for use at home or while you are on the move.
These new LG Bluetooth speakers will bring together versatility in addition to premium sound for an enhanced listening experience regardless of where you are. They have been specially equipped with cutting-edge features while boasting of sleek, innovative designs. The new LG portable Bluetooth speakers will be known as models PH2, PH3 and PH4, where they function as versatile audio solutions regardless of the listener type. Everyone from audiophiles to casual listeners who need portability to match their active lifestyle will be able to find something that is right up their alley.
Those who are on the lookout for portability and durability as the main selling points can settle for the PH2 and PH4 Bluetooth speakers. Tipping the scales at less than half a pound, the resilient, splash proof and compact 2.5-watt PH2 (3.8 in x 1.5 in) has been specially designed to bring high-quality audio with a rich, deep bass so that even the most active users will be more than happy with the audio that pumps out from it. A sturdy connected strap will make it easy to attach it to a range of surfaces or to carry with you on the go, while it does offer subtle lighting for a unique, sophisticated style.
As for the 16-watt PH4 (2.5 in x 3.1 in) which is a wee bit larger, it delivers complex, powerful and rich sound, which makes it ideal for outdoor gatherings like camp-outs or barbecues, or simply to have it laze around the house. There is 360-degree sound and a rich, deep bass that is provided by dual passive radiators, while its compact, sleek form factor and a connected strap makes it a snap to tote around. Not only that, it has a water resistant design that makes it durable enough to withstand splashes of water or sweat.
Expect these new LG portable Bluetooth speakers to launch later this fall, although there is no word on pricing just yet.

Do you struggle with knowing when to communicate with your partner about a problem and when to just solve it yourself?
In my work with couples, I am often asked, “Shouldn’t I communicate with my partner about this? Shouldn’t we talk this over?”
For example, Ginger noticed that when her husband, Ron, became sexually demanding or started to complain about not having enough sex, she would become defensive and try to talk him out of his feelings by explaining things to him. She would then feel angry, distant and sexually turned off. She continually wanted to talk with Ron about this, hoping to get him to stop complaining. Yet nothing changed. Sometimes Ginger thought there was something wrong with her sexually when she was not turned on, and other times she thought that if only Ron would change, everything would be okay. Yet no amount of talking or exploring the issue changed anything.
Ginger and I discussed a new, loving action she could take when Ron complained about not having enough sex. Instead of defending and explaining, Ginger decided to just say, “Uh huh,” with a compassionate tone.
“But shouldn’t I tell him why I am just saying ‘Uh huh?'”
“Why do you want to tell him why?”
“I guess so that he will not get upset with me.”
“So once again, you want to explain yourself as a way to get Ron to feel a certain way.”
Ginger saw that much of her desire to “communicate” was really coming from an intent to control.
“When is it appropriate to talk about stuff?”
“When you are sharing your own new learning without an agenda to change Ron. Sharing your own learning can lead to deeper intimacy, while sharing your feelings in order to control generally leads to distance.”
So, when do we talk and when do we act?
We talk when it is about sharing information or coming up with a plan. For example, it is appropriate to tell your partner if you are going to be home late – that is sharing important information. It is appropriate to discuss what you both want to do on Saturday night, or what movie you might want to see, or if you want to go to the party you were invited to. This talking is about coming up with a plan that affects both of you. However, if one partner gets controlling about the information or the plan, that is when you might want to stop talking and think about what action you need to take for yourself. Any discussion when one partner is controlling will always break down, because the other partner is now trying to get the first person to stop being controlling and open to learning. This kind of talking is what does not work. This is when you need to open to learning about what you are feeling (sad, lonely because you cannot connect with your partner, and helpless over getting him or her to open), acknowledge and compassionately embrace your feelings, accept the loneliness and helplessness over the other person, release the feelings to Spirit, open to learning about the loving action and take the loving action on your own behalf.
Put simply, the time to talk is when both people are truly open to learning and there is no agenda to get the other person to change. The time to take loving action on your own behalf is when you find that you are feeling sad, lonely and helpless over the interaction. That is when you need to remember to move into taking loving care of yourself.
The challenge is in remembering to take loving care of yourself. After all the years of practicing trying to change someone else, it is very challenging to let go of that and remember to take care of yourself. Yet this is what really works!

A dog that strayed onto a rally car race course in Bolivia is lucky to be alive.
The black and white canine came within inches of being mowed down by Uruguayan driver Fernando Zuasnabar’s Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution at the Codasur Rally in Santa Cruz over the weekend.
But instead of striking the helpless pup, the vehicle struck a bump in the dirt track at exactly the right moment, bounced into the air and soared straight over the animal.
Local TV news crews and photographers captured the astonishing incident on camera from various angles.
It’s unclear whether the dog was a stray or had broken away from its owner during the race. Military police later captured the animal and removed it from the course.

When farmers spray their crops with pesticides and other treatments to help ensure their survival, 98 percent of those chemicals bounce right off the plants and end up in the groundwater as pollution. It’s a waste, and harmful to the environment, so researchers at MIT came up with a cheap but effective way to instead make those chemicals stick to crops.
Snapchat
made its name as the ephemeral social app, where your photos are lost forever after a few seconds of looking at them. But it’s not at all difficult to save your Snapchats for posterity. Here’s how to keep any images you send or receive and back them up in the cloud.
Here’s a bit of schadenfreude for those of us who can’t afford to breathe in New York’s Upper West Side: A water main break last night created a sinkhole, and that sinkhole swallow an entire BMW worth around $55,000*.
The newly-announced
Fitbit Flex 2 improves on its predecessor with water resistance, swim tracking, colored LEDs, and a smaller design. And for my money, it’s the most attractive fitness tracker I’ve ever seen.
These days all you need to recreate Hollywood-caliber visual effects is a fast PC and some expensive 3D software. But if you want to try your hand at recreating old-school special effects, find yourself a 3D printer, make a miniature version of Ghostbusters’ Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, and go to town with a blowtorch.
