World's Most Expensive Classic Cars

1937 Bugatti Type 57S – $4.4 million

When relatives of the recently deceased and "eccentric" Dr. Harold Carr opened the garage he'd left to them in his will, they had no idea what to expect. Sure they'd heard that there might be a Bugatti in there, but that was just a bit of local legend. As it happened, there really was a Bugatti in there—and, when it went to auction at Bonham's Retromobile car show in February of 2009, it sold for €3,417,500—around $4.4 million at the time.

This 1937 Bugatti Type 57S Atalante was originally purchased by Earl Howe a month after it left the Bugatti works. Over the 8 years that he owned the car, Howe added new bumpers, a luggage rack and rearview mirrors. It was later brought up to SC specification with the addition of a Marshall K200 supercharger by its next owner, J P Tingay. Eventually, the car found its way into the hands of Lord Ridley, who held it for a year before selling it to Dr. Carr. Combine this pedigree with the fact that only seventeen Type 57S's—a version of the Type 57 modified specifically for competitions—were produced and you have quite an expensive car.

1961 Ferrari 250 GT California Spyder – $10.8 million

Sold in May 2008 at the RM Auctions/Sotheby's Ferrari Legend and Passion auction, this Ferrari 250 GT was owned by former Magnificent Seven star James Coburn for twenty-five years. During that time, Coburn would test his skills against fellow enthusiasts Steve McQueen and James Garner. In fact, one of the latest lines of Ferraris, also designed by Pininfarina, has been named "California" in honor of Coburn's car.

1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa – $12.4 million

One of only twenty-two of its kind, chassis no. 0714TR features a distinctive pontoon-like design by Carrozzeria Scaglietti. The Ferrari 250 TR is famous for having won ten of the nineteen races in which they were driven between 1958 and 1961.

This particular TR won 4th place when driven by Piero Drogo in the 1000 km Buenos Aires in January of 1958. Drogo drove it one more time, in the Grand Prix of Cuba, before he sold it to American Alan Connell who drove it in nine races and spent most of that time in 1st or 2nd place in class. It featured in twelve more races between 1960 and 1963, making it one of the most raced Ferraris of all time.

It was sold at auction in Maranello, home of Carrozzeria Scaglietti and birthplace of the TR, for an impressive sum of €9,020,000.

1934 "Star of India" Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental – $13 million

Hans-Gunther Zach, owner of the Rolls-Royce museum in Germany, is selling off his entire collection–including the museum's premiere acquisition, the Star of India.

This bespoke Rolls was one of 281 Continental Phantom II's ever produced. Built for the Maharajah of Rajkot, one of its custom features is, among its 14 headlights, a pair that turns with the steering wheel. Also particular to the Star of India is its unique orange-over-aluminum color combination.

The Star of India was auctioned alongside twenty-four other rare Rolls-Royces and another three Bentleys. After the auction, it appeared for sale at $13 million, but the listing was later removed.

Peter D. Williamson Bugatti Type 57S Atlantic – $30-$40 million

If you thought the Bugatti Type 57S above was expensive, then check out this piece of phenomenal piece of Bugatti history. The Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic was based on the "Aérolithe" concept car. The Aérolithe's Electron and Duralumin construction required external riveting, resulting in a distinctive seam not unlike a dorsal fin. Despite the Atlantic's aluminum construction, which required no such riveting, the seam was retained.

Only four Type 57SC Atlantics were produced and only two have survived to this day. Fashion guru Ralph Lauren owns one while the other was owned by late Bugatti collector Dr. Peter Williamson. The Williamson Bugatti, chassis #57374, was the first Atlantic off the production line and was originally owned by Lord Philippe de Rothschild of London. While it was drastically modified by its second owner, Dr. Williamson restored it to its original specifications after acquiring it for $59,000 in 1971. After Williamson's passing, it was sold to an undisclosed buyer, reportedly for a sum between $30 and $40 million.

Top 10 Robots

2010-12-28T11:04:00.000-08:00

We all love robots, but we're used to enjoying robots as concepts from the future. What we often tend to forget is that we're now living in an age that is increasingly characterized by robotics. To that end, we've put together a list of robots that you can actually buy right now. You might be surprised at the variety of types--some mundane, and other as amazing as the versions you dreamt of watching Giant Robot as a kid--out there available to the average (if, in cases, somewhat wealthy) consumer.

10. Lego Mindstorms NXT

A robot for the kids if ever there was one, this Lego Mindstorms NXT comes complete with easy-to-use software and step-by-step building instructions. Think of it as Frankenstein's robot for beginners.

9. Roomba

While so basic you sort of don't even want to refer to it as a robot, the Roomba does the one thing we always eventually want out of a robot--it cleans up after us. For the uninitiated, Roomba is a 13" disc-shaped vacuum that rolls around a room and cleans the floors, finding its way around with only an infrared sensor and a sense for "virtual walls" to guide it. Simply put: it's popular, and it works. (Check out the wet/dry Scooba while you're at it.)

8. Robonova

Even before checking out this robot, I was pretty much sold on the name."Robonova" sounds so fantastically space-age. Kind of a basic bi-ped robot, Robonova walks, walks fast ("runs"), does flips, cartwheels, and dance moves. We like to think of him as an infant in a grown-up robot world.

7. Roboraptor

Sony's Aibo dog came and went pretty quickly, but that's not to say there's aren't a few robotic animals out there picking up the slack. We're particularly partial to Roboraptor, which was created by a former NASA robotics physicist. The robot walks and runs with "predatory gaits," and, like you would expect of any pet, it responds to its environment in three moods: playful, cautious, and "hunter."

6. ZMP Nuvo

One of the most practical bipedal robots available, the ZMP Nuvo was designed for the mundane task of being a companion in the home. But that doesn't mean the 15" robot isn't a lot of fun. Nuvo responds to 50 spoken commands (including coming to your call and telling you the time), it can take pictures with the camera in its head and send them to your cell phone, and its equipped with LAN, Wireless LAN, speaker, microphone, and remote control.

5. Robosapien V2

Phase two of this remote-controlled robot, Robosapien V2 features over 100-pre-programmed functions that you can control from a distance great enough to give you a head start when he turns on you. The robot features color vision and sound detection, and it can speak and interact with people and inanimate objects alike.

4. White Box Robotics 914 PC-Bot

Not everyone is content to simply watch a robot walk around and act like a stiff human. Some of us want some serious functionality, which is exactly where the White Box Robotics 914 PC-Bot comes in. Consider it an extension of your PC. The robot, navigated by your mouse, keyboard, or joystick, allows you to see through its onboard webcam via Windows Media through any local or remote PC (802.11g wireless). But that's merely the dressing, as the 914 Pc-Bot is a fully functional PC (40 GB 2.5" SATA Hard drive) running Windows and running all over your room.

3. BalGot Advanced

For the DIY enthusiast--the true robot aficionado--the BalGot Advanced offers an endless array of possibilities. This autonomous, active-balancing robot is fully customizable, with a kit that includes a microcontroller board, two infrared distance sensors, a programmer, serial cable, C-compiler--all ready for the budding robot programmer.

2. Kondo KHR-2

Unlike your average vertically standing, bipedal robot, the Kondo KHR-2 is designed for what we really want to see robots engaging in: battle. Not only does it walk, but it also performs kung-fu, sucker punches and kicks, and basic acrobatics. Available in a kit with over 200 individual pieces, this robot is created as a labor of love, put together with the same delicate hand that will then guide it toward bashing other robots.

1. Valerie, A Domestic Android

Still considered the classic robot by certain factions of the productdose community, Valerie is a life-size female android ("Because a woman is less threatening than a full-sized adult male") that will clean, paint, do laundry, wash dishes, and check stock prices. Sorry folks, she won't drive a car of run a lawnmower, if for no other reason than "because she can't go outside."

Honorable Mention: Sony Aibo ERS-7M3

Perhaps the most beloved of all purchasable robots, the lifespan of Sony's Aibo ERS-7M3 played out both fast and furious. The dog affectionately referred to as robot's best friend came to America in limited addition and is no longer available. Gone but not forgotten.

Top 10 Expensive Cars of 2010

2010-12-27T04:04:00.000-08:00

Its rarity (limited to 20) and slick design are the reasons why it is so expensive and costly to own.

Don't let the price tag fool you, the 6th most expensive car is actually the fastest street legal car in the world with a top speed of 257 mph+ and reaching 0-60 in 2.7 seconds. This baby cost nearly half as much as the Bugatti Veyron, yet has enough power to top the most expensive car in a speed race. It is estimated that only 25 of this exact model will ever be produced.

7. Saleen S7 Twin Turbo $555,000. The first true American production certified supercar, this cowboy is also rank 3rd for the fastest car in the world. It has a top speed of 248 mph+ and it can reach 0-60 in 3.2 seconds. If you are a true American patriot, you can be proud to show off this car.

Currently, it is the 4th fastest car in the world with a top speed of 245 mph+, the car manufacture Koenigsegg is not giving up and will continue to try and produce the fastest car.

The lowest price for which you will be able to buy that laptop is $449.

9.Sony Vaio BZ Series
That is one of the best solidly built laptops that you can buy. It has really good keyboard and also a fingerprint scanner. However, that laptop has a low resolution screen, which is one of the major disadvantages of it and also it comes for a very high price, which makes it not suitable for people, who have limited finance. The lowest price where you will be able to buy that laptop is $969, which compared to all the other laptops that are available on the market makes the Sony Vaio BZ series not suitable at all.
8.HP Compaq 6535b
The HP Compaq 6535b is suitable for all the people, who want slim and light laptop for their everyday use. Furthermore, you will be able to get a lot of power, because that laptop have really powerful processor and also comes with a really large hard drive.

It is light and also according to HP the battery lasts for 6-7 hours. In addition it has really good keyboard, which is well placed and well arranged, so you will have great time using it. However the mouse has really small buttons that you will find hard for hitting, but you can always buy a new mouse. If you buy HP ProBook 5310m, you will be impressed for sure.

Like all the products that are available on the market, the Gateway NV7802u have good and negative features and it is up to you to choose if you will be buying it. It offers very good performance and long battery life. In addition, the price is very affordable and is $518. However, have in mind that it doesn't have Bluetooth and very poor angles of view. In my opinion you will get very useful laptop for reasonably low price.
5.Apple MacBook 13-inch
The Apple MacBook 13-inch is offering a very good performance and functionality, but all of that comes for a reasonable price, which is $1000. The Apple MacBook 13-inch have powerful processor and stylish design, which you will surely be impressed. It supports MacOS, Windows and Linux, so you will not have to use Apple products only, like with all the predecessors of that laptop. It is a very good solution if you are looking for reliable and fast laptop.

The Dell Inspiron 15 is a mixture of very stylish design and also from a very good functionality. It comes in 7-8 color schemes and also the prices that you will have to pay for them are very affordable – from $40 to $80. In most of the cases you will be able to buy that laptop with Core 2 Duo T600 at 2.1Ghz, 3 GB RAM and also it has 320 GB hard disk. That combination gives a score of 846 on 3DMark, which makes the performance of that laptop really impressive.
3.Sony VAIO SR series
Sony is well known for presenting some of the highest quality consumer electronic products and the Sony VAIO SR series is not an exception, because you will get very good performance and stylish design. However, have in mind that all this comes for a reasonable price of $950.
2.HP Compaq 6730b
That laptop is a combination of exceptional performance, design and affordability. If you are looking for a reliable laptop, that is the best solution for you. The base laptop is very powerful, but have in mind that all the upgrades can rise the price a lot quickly, so use the website of HP to calculate the price of the laptop after a couple of improvements.

1.Dell Inspiron 14
The Dell Inspiron 14 is one of the best solutions for all the people, who are looking for a small, but powerful laptop. The basic configuration of the Dell Inspiron 14 comes with great features – Intel Core 2 Duo T600 processor, 4 GB RAM and also Windows 7 64 bit OS. However, most of the customers prefer to make upgrades on the basic configuration, but have in mind that this will increase the price. The cost of the basic configuration of the Dell Inspiron 14 is $604.

Obama: The College Years

2010-12-21T04:04:00.000-08:00

In 1980, when Obama was a freshman at Occidental College in Los Angeles, he was approached by an aspiring photographer named Lisa Jack, who asked him if he would be willing to pose for some black and white photographs that she could use in her portfolio.

Of her first meeting (in a campus eatery) with Obama, Jack remembers only that "He was really cute. But what else does a 20-year-old girl remember?"

In the photos, Jack says, "You can see he is just posing, initially, but as the shoot goes on, he starts to come out. He was very charismatic even then."

Jack never realized her dream of becoming a photographer and is now a psychologist.

Jack and Obama would see each other only a few more times while students. But in 2005, while on a tour, she spotted Obama on Capitol Hill and yelled hello. "He knew exactly who I was after all this time," Jack says. "I was amazed."

On a dare from a skeptical friend, Jack decided to track down her negatives from the shoot.

Initially, before she dug the film out from her basement, Jack never thought her pictures would have much life beyond her own darkroom.

When she found them, the images of Obama "blew me away," she says. "I had no idea I'd taken a whole roll of film."

For a while, Jack put the negatives in a safety-deposit box, so that they could not be used until after the election, when there would be no chance they could be used for a political purpose.

Today, Jack says, she hopes the photos reveal a "spirit of fun and thoughtfulness."

The Man Who Would Be President

"I'm not political," Jack says, "(But) these are historic photos and they should be shared."

How Should A Boy Treat His Girlfriend

2010-12-17T14:55:00.000-08:00

In this day of age many people realise the ancient way to treat their girlfriend, you may think that 'omg we're in 22nd century' but believe me thats the best way girls like to be treated.
For starters, if you love her or really really like her, then how can you show your feelings? Well giver her your TIME. Time is a very important thing in a relationship, whether its for a girl or boy. That is the only way you get closer wth someone.
Show your care for her, listen to her, give her advise, help her as much as you can.
Now and then gift her, and no not expense gift, a box of chocolates and flowers is a girl's favourite gift.
If your meeting with her family mix with them, be a gentleman.

Most guys doesn't fit in the category doing these things but if your really into that girl then these are essential things to help make a girl happy and feel complete. This comes from most girls expectations. Including me:)

The Natural Way Of Smiling

2010-12-14T16:10:00.000-08:00

Many of us are very preserved of our smiles; it is one of the features of appearance which stands out the most in my point of view right? I mean we notice so well when we get dimples or someone else gets it. And will be like 'oh she/he has so nice dimples wish I had it'? Well you don't need a dimple to have a beautiful smile; there are so many ways into getting a natural but sexy smile on your face.

People who are so worried how their teethes looks tends not to smile or have a closed lip smile. To like your teeth first and get a natural smile, that is more like it.
Learn to smile with eye contact. This is because when you smile just via your mouth you would look so fake believe me. When you smile through your eyes and mouth not only does your smile look naturally beautiful but your eyes would twinkle.
Practice in the mirror- although it may sound really silly but they say practice makes perfect!
Think about something good that way your smile would come so naturally because it's an automatic response.

These are just simple ways to make a brighter smile. Hope this helps. Thanks. :D

Helpful Tips on Eye Care

Helpful Tips on Eye Care

With so many of us spending lots of time in front of the computer every day it comes to no surprise that research is showing a rise in visual problems. What can one do? First, it's important to find out how you can protect your eyes through eye health exams and by making a few minor changes in your computer viewing habits.

Here are some helpful Eye Care Tips -

Positioning is everything

Correct positioning of your computer, keyboard and typing copy is essential. Your screen should be positioned about an arm's length from your eyes and 20 degrees below eye level. Consider foot and wrist rests for added comfort.

Lighting can make all the difference

Room lighting should be diffuse, not direct, to reduce glare and reflections from your screen. Look into an internal or external glare screen and be sure to set your colour, contrast and brightness levels to suit you.

A little extra help for your glasses

Anti-reflective coatings on the lenses of your glasses can be applied by your optometrist to reduce discomfort and to ease reduced vision from bright and/or flickering light sources such as VDTs and fluorescent lights. And don't forget, your doctor of optometry can talk to you about eyeglasses designed specifically for people who use computers a lot.

Take time out, our 20-20-20 rule

Step I :-
After every 20 minutes of looking into the computer screen, turn your
head and try to look at any object placed at least 20 feet away. This
changes the focal length of your eyes, a must-do for the tired eyes.

Step II :-
Try and blink your eyes for 20 times in succession, to moisten them.

Step III :-
Time permitting of course, one should walk 20 paces after every 20 minutes
of sitting in one particular posture. Helps blood circulation for the entire body.

It's all in the blinking

Did you know that on average we blink 12 times per minute? But wait, did you know that when we're on the computer we only blink 5 times per minute? That can add up to dry eyes. Relieve the discomfort by using artificial tear drops or gels and remember to blink!

Palming

Sit straight at your workstation and rub your palms against each other till you feel them warm. The warmth of your palms helps soothe and relax tired eyes. Then, lightly cup your eyes with your palms and relax for 60 seconds. Count the seconds in your mind. Repeat this exercise two to three times whenever your eyes feel tired, or as often as you want. While palming, you can either rest your elbows on your desk or keep away from the desk and cup your eyes. Both ways are fine.

Splash water on your face

During breaks, splash water on your face while closing your eyes. This has an overall relaxing effect and helps you feel refreshed.

Use tea bags

Keep two used tea bags in the refrigerator before you leave for work. Once you are home, place the tea bags on your eyes for a few minutes as you relax. This not only soothes tired eyes, but also reduces puffiness.

Eat healthy

Incorporate Vitamins A, C, and E on a daily basis; eat citrus fruits, green leafy veggies, tomatoes, spinach, poultry and dairy products. Pack a box of chopped carrots, cucumber and fresh fruits and munch in-between meals at the office.
