New Bluetooth Peripherals for Windows 8 Devices

    Windows 8 has been the hotspot of this summer, the released date of windows 8 OS would on October 26th, the same time as the release of tablet surface. Microsoft have confirmed this in its annual report. Win8 may not available yet, However, Microsoft have released new Bluetooth peripherals for surface and laptop running win8-touch mouse and keyboard. Micro seems preparing the ground to make the win8 success.
   
   The new Touch Mouse looks the most interesting its name suggests, it looks like a wedge of cheese. It is also with a small size, which while being a good fit with surface and other win8 mobile devices. The device has no scroll wheel; instead, the top of the mouse is touch-sensitive and supports both horizontal and vertical scrolling.
   This Wedge Touch Mouse uses Blue Track technology, allowing it to be used on different surface types, such as carpet and granite. There is rumor that surface would up to $1000, so it also won't come cheap at an estimated retail price of US$69.95.

   The other Bluetooth device is the keyboard. The Wedge Mobile Keyboard comes with a thick rubber cover that not only protects the keyboard, but can be folded in the middle to act as an adjustable stand for a tablet. The keyboard has a rubber-coated wedge at the bottom that holds it in place and also tilts it at a slight angle for better ergonomics. It's priced at US$79.95.

   By the way, things for win8 seems all take high price ~~  I don’t know who would take 140 bucks just for a tablet mice and keyboard. Price is the point of win8 devices and if the rumor about $1000-2000 surface price would come true, I really don’t know who well take it. Fortunately, Microsoft has declined to comment on the accuracy of these prices rumor.

Unanswered Questions of Prometheus You Don't Know

prometheus explanation
   Prometheus give me kinds of strange feeling that much of plot in this film seems make no sense, so I have a try to find out the answers for those wired plot. All of this not just a rundown of all the questions we think still aren't answered, but explanations I searched on the net might answer it. There is not "explanation" of Prometheus, of course-- only Ridley Scott can do that, and they probably never will. I just want to give it my best shot and share my guess to you. Just for funny… 
Question: Why the Engineer drinks the black goo in the beginning of the story?
The opening of the movie is stunning in its visuals, but pretty incomprehensible without any context. It’s hard to tell why exactly the Engineer-- that’s the blue muscle-bound alien creature standing by the waterfall-- has opted to drink the black goo, where is he, or really what’s going on in general, and it’s never explained in the rest of the movie, just simply left for viewer interpretation.
prometheus explanation
Guessing: The giant ship (which is different from the ring-shaped one we see later in the film, weirdly) has landed on Earth to drop off the Engineer so that he can terraform the planet and make it sustainable for life. We think he drinks the black goo to break down his own structure and spread life on Earth through his own DNA, but that doesn’t really explain his surprise while he’s disintegrating.
Question: Why does David poison Holloway?
David doesn’t have the capacity to be evil - he lacks the ability to feel emotions and simply follows directives. So why would he take the opportunity to poison Holloway with the black goo for seemingly no purpose? By the end of the film there is no explanation given as to why the android would kill one of his co-workers.
prometheus explanation
Guessing: While the rest of the crew on-board the Prometheus was looking for the origins of life on Earth and our creator, David had a very specific side mission: to find a way for Weyland to live forever. Therefore, it’s possible that David decided to dose Holloway because he wanted to experiment and see if the black goo they found would be the key for Weyland. It’s also possible he saw the black goo as the potential to create alien weapon creatures, which a company like Weyland could exploit-- though he might not have counted on that weapon attacking his crew so soon.
Question: How does Janek know that the moon is full of “weapons of mass destruction” and is just a stopover moon for them to build weapons?
Janek, the pilot of the Prometheus played by Idris Elba, largely stays out of the fray, watching from a safe distance from the comfort of his ship. But as missions members continue to disappear, Janek suits up and explores LV-223 with the surviving crew. He’s tasked with explaining what he thinks they’ve stumbled onto, explaining it as a weapons factory that’s wisely built away from wherever it is the Engineers actually live … in case things happen to go wrong with the weapons.
prometheus explanation
Guessing: This bit of descriptive dialogue is necessary to solidify the plot, and it’s best that Elba's character delivers it. But it’s more of a theory than concrete fact. From the beginning, he is written as a world-weary ship captain who has kind of “seen it all,” a cagey veteran who’s around for guidance as much as he’s around because he’s good at piloting a craft. Not that he has run into many alien weapons factories (for lack of a better term), but he’s experienced enough to know when a hostile opponent is crafting a weapon for retaliation, and we think that’s what he witnesses on the distant moon of LV-223.
Question: Why does Weyland have to hide that he’s on the ship?
From the moment the crew of the Prometheus wakes up out of hypersleep, we’re aware of just how little this group of roughnecks knows about the assignment. Shaw and Holloway are there to try to contact the Engineers, of course, and Meredith Vickers knows all about their plans, but everyone else on board seems happy to take the paycheck-- which is why we still don’t understand why Peter Weyland would have to hide that he’s on board. When he finally is revealed late in the film, it turns out he’s looking for essentially the same thing as Shaw-- so why couldn’t they have just been working together the entire time?
prometheus explanation
Guessing: Weyland seems like the kind of guy who likes to keep things close to the vest, letting his android David do his bidding and staying asleep, or doing whatever he’s doing, in his own secret chambers. We could argue all day that the movie would be more interesting if he were part of it from the beginning, but we guess the eccentric trillionaire has his reasons for keeping his distance.

Movie Review: Ice Age: Continental Drift

    You may not care the climate change and it may no conclusive proof of the substantial global warming, but every year there is a story would remind us that the climate change may be true. From its 2002 beginning, Ice Age tell a great funny story with strong, esay to understand story line, The new one “Continental Drift” also did a great Job in this summer.
Ice Age 4

    When a woolly mammoth cops an attitude and smirks, "It's not like it's the end of the world," there is certain to be trouble ahead. Or in the case of the 3-D animated "Ice Age: Continental Drift,"a whole lotta trouble. A whole lotta shakin's too, especially after Scrat, that acorn-obsessed saber-toothed squirrel (voiced by Chris Wedge), manages to crack the ice, which creates the continents and triggers the breakup of the polar icecaps. So much for global warming.
    The film was co-directed by Steve Martino  and Michael Thurmeier from a screenplay by Michael Berg, who co-wrote the original "Ice Age," and Jason Fuchs, making his feature debut. The fourth edition in this solid, if not overly scintillating franchise is an improvement over No. 3, 2009's "Dawn of the Dinosaurs," which completely lost it when the Ice Age went tropical.
     In "Continental Drift," the filmmakers have gone a little crazy too, but in a good way. Smack dab in the middle of things there's a big Broadway-style number involving pirates. It's a frivolous but fabulous bit that seems one-part homage to Disney's animated musicals, and one-part nod to Disney's "Pirates of the Caribbean" movies, yet it works as an excellent diversion and not just because of the music. The real kick, thank you "Game of Thrones," is that Peter Dinklage has come aboard as the fiercest, baddest pirate captain ever, and he sings.
Captain Gutt is a crusty old orangutan with a sinister grin, seriously lethal fingernails ("thems what do the gutting, arrr") and a motley crew — except for the silver saber-toothed babe Shira (Jennifer Lopez). For those wondering why there are suddenly pirates in prehistoric times, well, this is probably the wrong movie for you. The old standbys are back, but thanks to Scrat, things are a disaster. Manny the mammoth (Ray Romano) and his truculent teenager Peaches (Keke Palmer) are at odds over her dating. A hunky Ethan (Drake) is the apple of her eye, something her best friend Louis (Josh Gad), a mole hog, gets mopey over. Sid the sloth's (John Leguizamo) estranged parents have stopped by long enough to drop off Granny (Wanda Sykes sounding like her stand-up self, but G-rated). Macho saber-toothed tiger Diego (Denis Leary) is having a midlife crisis, wondering if being a bachelor is really all it's cracked up to be.
    Before anything can be resolved, everything literally cracks up. Mountains start crumbling, icebergs start breaking apart and within moments Peaches and mom Ellie (Queen Latifah) are left on land, while Manny, Diego, Sid and Granny are clinging to a chunk of iceberg on the high seas. Captain Gutt with his cold heart soon rides out of the mists and the fun begins.
   "Ice Age's" stories are fundamentally all about family and there is no messing with that principle at this point in the game. It's all geared to be easily consumed by little ones, there are morals to the story and the jokes are built on the animation antics rather than double entendres or pop culture cleverness. That means Manny's raison d'etre is simple — get back to Ellie and Peaches because that is what good dads and husbands do, we are told, in case there was some confusion on those responsibilities.
    All in all, the film is a funny one full of emotion and warmth of family. Enjoy such a movie with family in this hot summer, is definitely a nice moment.

MacBook or ultrabook?That is a question!

Ultrabook VS macbook
  If you are planning to buy a new laptop, you must meet the hard choices: MacBook or ultrabook. I have struggle with this problem too. However, ultrabook only is the quantity winner and MacBook is the substantial laptop king of this year.
 what’s ultrabook? To be honest, i have no idea about what is ultrabook, so let’s get more info about this new conception. Ultrabook is a term intel coined to describe ultraportable laptops that meet a certain set of guidelines. These machines are less than .8 inches thick and use either a solid state drive (or a cache of flash memory) to boot windows fast and wake from sleep almost instantly. You should also expect at least 5 hours of battery life. The goal: to make notebooks as responsive as tablets.
 Today’s ultrabook are very similar to the MacBook in terms of constraction and design, very similar.
Similar: weight, battery life, hardware and performance, touchpad
    The 13-inch MacBook air goes for three pounds and measures 0.7 inches thick, while the new ultrabooks weigh around 2.9-3 pounds and measure 0.6-0.7 inches in depth. It’s not identical, but it’s pretty darn close.
   Both the MacBook air and the new ultrabooks are intended to impress in terms of autonomy and, without any exception, they do. Apple’s 13-incher can go for around six hours between charges, while the new ultrabooks are pretty much all there or thereabouts, with estimated autonomies of between five and a half hours (the asus ux21) and six and a half hours (the lenovo u300s and the toshiba z830).
    With a few tiny exceptions, which we are going to detail a bit later, the MacBook air and the ultrabooks are equally strong and snappy. Apple’s laptop is powered by a 1.7 ghz intel core i5 processor and features 4 gb of ram, as well as a 128 gb ssd, which is the exact specification of the asus ux31 and is ever so slightly different than the u300s’s tech specs.
The large glass touchpad featured by the MacBook air was a first a while back, but is standard on today’s ultrabooks.
Defferences: keyboard, screens, hardware and performance,software
  Even though the new ultrabooks come with pretty decent, accurate and comfortable keyboards of their own, the MacBook air still holds a big advantage in this area. Apple’s keyboard is the only one backlit and that can make a difference in a battle so tight.
  The air sports a beautiful 13.3-inch display with 1440 x 900 pixels resolution, which, even though it’s glossy, is much better than the ones featured by the lenovo u300s or the samsung series 9. on the other hand, the asus ux31 comes with a higher-resolution 1600 x 900 pixels screen and if you want the better overall image quality, this is the way to go.
As we already mentioned, there are a few slight differences in terms of performance between the air and some of today’s ultrabooks. The acer s3, for example, only comes with a 20 gb ssd, while the standard version of the toshiba z830 is powered by a slower 1.4 ghz intel core i3 processor.
  The MacBook air runs the terrific mac OS 10.7 lion, while all the other ultrabooks are windows-based. That’s a very important difference, but it would take us a couple of days to clearly determine which of the two operating systems is better, so for the time being we will call it a tie…
Ultrabook

   In spite of this, which one is better is up to you. As for me, ultrabook seems more atrractive than then expensive MacBook. Ultrabook offers far better value for money than MacBook .the 13-inch air costs a somewhat steep $1,299, you can pick up an ultrabook like the toshiba portege z835 (pictured) for as little as $799. it’s the lightest ultrabook yet at just 2.4 pounds and lasts nearly 7 hours on a charge. It’s core i3 processor and 128gb solid state drive aren’t as fast as the air, but you get good performance for the money. Moreover, ultrabook offer more choices than mac, 13 inchs is the sweet spot for ultrabook, but you also could choose the other size you like. And for mac, with forever size and design……..
  Finally, I found a comparison of mainstream ultrabook, put up here for your reference.
