So I wonder where this product is to be manufactured.

China?

At Foxconn perhaps?

Care to tell us Engadget?

Apple, Dell, and HP comment on suicides as Foxconn CEO shows off the pool {Engadget}

I know one thing. I will not likely be buying any iPhones, iTouch, iPads or any Dell & HP products that I know came from there. And I hope Engadget will soon release a list of all products manufactured at Foxconn.

This is just another example & proof that the Chinese govt(CPC) in cahoots with Chinese large corporations don't give a shit about their own people. They're merely seen as expendable entities to be literally worked to death & then casually discarded after use.

Workers there have no real, actual rights. And from what I've seen & heard, anytime a worker in a Chinese factory is seriously injured or permanently maimed, the official corporate & government response is "We can't afford to pay or compensate workers because if we ever do so, there's a possibility our economy will suffer. We can't afford to do anything to risk our (booming)economy losing momentum, so we can't afford to pay workers, including or especially injured workers anything more than minimum."

Bullshit! "Can't afford it" my ass! The corporate execs(in China and beyond, like San Jose, Round Rock, etc) are getting filthy rich on profits while workers like at Foxconn are basically doing slave labor! And many are jumping out windows. So far, corporate has gotten off scot free so to speak and they've merely shrugged & replaced worker THX-1138 with another.

Report: GM scouring the globe for next Corvette design, first time looking beyond U.S. {Autoblog}

Yeah, I definitely agree about the beancounters. Keep them away from all Vette projects!

I wish GM had used that 50th Anniversary Stingray design or would. Or make a special Transformers edition series based on that currently 1 off car used in the movie.

If they want to work with a European design house, I recommend Guigiaro which designed & built this 2007 concept Mustang and Nikon's D1-D3 series pro cameras.

Kylie Bisutti Yearbook Photos -- Before She Was an Angel {Asylum}

Dec 11th 2009 11:16PM
Hey Asylum, quit dangling these Kylie pics in front of us like a carrot on a stick after you tell us she's friggin married! Why did you have to tell us that?! I was perfectly happy having fantasies about her and I alone on a tropical island making love, having children and all the rest. Why did you have to tell us that? Now I can't look at her without knowing I'm having adulterous thoughts. I wasn't guilty of having adulterous thoughts until you told us she's married. Now I may go to Hell. The best thing for me to do is just not visit this site again. A shame because you have some cool articles otherwise. Goodbye.

'Men's Health' Recyles Cover From Two Years Ago {Asylum}

Dec 11th 2009 11:07PM
What I've noticed the last few years as both a subscriber & ex-subscriber is that Men's Health recycles their articles A LOT!
This time they were caught with the most obvious recycle, with those articles in the exact same order as that one 2 years ago. But if you pay any attention at all you'll notice they put the same kind of teasers on the magazine cover from one month to the next. I've got a stack of em in a closet to prove it.

Sarah,

you may have gotten kicked out of the unveiling, but I'll make it up to you by giving you a date with me. Now, what's your e-mail? :)

Bob Dylan to mumble GPS directions? {Engadget}

How about the voice of James Earl Jones("Luke, I am your father!" "This is CNN.") for your GPS Nav? At least his voice we can understand.

I would've had the "dead girl" actresses to keep their eyes open without blinking for the takes where their bodies are shown after the crash. Like that baby. A little more blood and some more facial disfigurement too.

Yeah, a little more work for the makeup crew, but it would be worth it. I like the neck crunching sound. Nice touch!
