Best $20 I Ever Spent - http://www.eFindOutTheTruth.com/

Posted in Around the Bowl at 3:34 pm by The Wizard

The Brief Safe

Talk about the Greatest Invention ever. Last week, after Citicards informed me my account information was compromised, again, I had to find a better way to keep my bling safe.

I’m talking about something so ingenious that not only can a thief not compromise it, not only can a robber not find it, but so friggen sweet that even if a thief knew where the cash was and how to get it, the thought might repulse them so much they won’t touch it.

I’m talking about the amazing creation found here, “The Brief Safe”. For the small fee of only twenty bucks, you too can get your hands on the greatest invention since the Swim Noodle, not that you’ll really want to actually put your hands on it.

Made of 100% pure cotton and sewed with 100% polyester thread, these duds are styling. I will admit that they were a little uncomfortable at first, but soon you’ll really fall for that snug fit. A totally awesome added bonus is that the valuables are stored in the front, which makes my package look totally huge. And there’s no more satisfying feeling in the world than buying something with cash that is soaked with ball sweat.

An added bonus to the safe is the tangy smelling “Poo Drops” accessory, which, just like advertised, Smells Like Crap. And we’re not talking about a little whiff of 5 year old girl turd, we’re talking full out, all nighter, Tequila and Taco Bell action here. A scent that only a Port-O-Potty repair man could love. Personally, I like to distill my own, but buying the bottle is more convenient.

So people, it’s time to start moving our money to a more secure location. No worries of ID theft, of accounts being frozen or worrying about the veracity of large corporations. I can assure that while there might be some cooking going on with the “Brief Safe”, it’s definitely not the books.

eFindOutTheTruth.com Listed In 26 Killer Travel Gadgets Every Geek Needs

I admit it: I’m a tech-head. I love gadgets and I love to travel. Put the two together and I attain a state of bliss somewhere between watching a Meredith Baxter-Birney marathon on Lifetime and that feeling you get when you think about puppies and marshmallows together at the same time. See where I’m going?

Anywho, I run through my checklist of essential gear every time I travel: laptop? Check. Travel guides? Of course. Digital camera? Yup. Pink feety pajamas and the Mama’s Boy teddy bear from my girlfriend? Aye. But … there’s still something missing. I’ve never felt Inspector Gadget-ish enough.

I started doing some digging and realized I’ve been missing out in a big way. Without further adieu, I present twenty six essential gadgets that no self-respecting traveling geek should be without. Why twenty six? I’m not sure. Better than twenty five, I guess.

#1: De-Pooify Your Water Supply

MSR Miox Water Purifier
If you’re not a big fan of drinking animal droppings with your river water while hiking or on the go, the MSR Miox water filter is all you need to de-pooify a steady, virtually unlimited, potable water supply.

#2: Gorillapod

Gorilla Pod
The Gorillapod. Tripods are so last month. And who wants to actually hold their digital camera, like with their hands, when they can mount it virtually anywhere and to anything with this beast?

#3: A Hammock for Your ‘lectronics

Travel Gadget Hammock
It’s tough to tell from their German language website, but this 2001: A Space Odyssey-esque device is, as Gadling puts it, “a hammock to keep your small electronics from falling to their death while hanging from oddly-placed outlets.” I can honestly say I’ve never been in such a situation, but I like to be prepared.

#4: Laser Virtual Keyboard

Bluetooth Virtual Keyboard
Relieve your hands of the stress of constantly pushing down heavy keyboard keys with a Bluetooth Laser Virtual Keyboard. This thing is Minority Report cool, but without Tom Cruise’s crazy antics and all that 1984-style big-government-gettin’-up-in-your-piece nonsense.

#5: A Real Global Cell Phone

My cell phone can beat up your cell phone. That’s because I have National Geographic’s Talk Abroad Travel Phone. Can your cell phone call anywhere in the world from over 100 countries? Doubt it. This new travel phone from NG can for under $200. (Actually I don’t really have this phone. But I wanted a reason to say “My cell phone can beat up your cell phone.”)

#6: … or this Other Real Global Cell Phone

Or if you’re a cheapskate or a National Geographic hater, perhaps Mobal’s $99 world phone is more your speed? Sure, it’s not especially sexy or chic but did I mention it’s $99? And it’s global? As in: it works around the globe.

#7: Indestructible Travel Cases

Pelican Travel Case
Checking your crackberry or updating weekly travel expenses on your Treo while scuba diving is easier than ever before with the waterproof and crushproof Pelican Micro Case Series of cases. There’s even a purge valve to equalize the pressure!

#8: Mission Impossible-Style Banking

RSA Security Token
Online banking over unsecured wireless networks is sketchy to say the least. Who knows whether that shady guy sitting next to you in the pleather jacket with his laptop and a Ron Burgundy mustache isn’t sniffing the 802g airwaves for your web passwords? Get the ultimate in password security with ETrade’s SecurID® Two-Factor Authentication token. It uses strong authentication by generating a random password every 60 seconds. Tom Cruise would be proud.

#9: The Only Travel Adapter You’ll Ever Need

150-Country Travel Adapter
The 150-Country Auto-Detecting Travel Adapter And Converter. Not the catchiest product name, but we can’t all afford big budget marketing departments. Hammacher Schlemmer describes it as “the lightweight, compact device that automatically detects incoming voltage, converts it to 120-volt AC power, and provides plug adaptation for over 150 countries throughout Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas and Caribbean, and Australia.” You’re out of luck in Antarctica I guess, but I don’t think they have electricity down there anyway. At least now you don’t have to carry around 150 adapters like you used to, right? Also: “The plug configures to fit a variety of international sockets, and it has a built-in USB port that allows you to leave chargers for cell phones, digital cameras, iPod®s, and other devices at home. The device allows simultaneous AC and USB connection to charge two devices at once.” Very cool.

#10: Soap on Crack (for Your Crack)

Shower Shock Travel Soap
I think we can all agree that finding a reliable meth dealer while on the road is difficult to say the least. This might be your opportunity to Say No to Drugs and get your morning buzz on the safe, Nancy Reagan-friendly way with Shower Shock Caffeine Soap Travel. ThinkGeek says: “It works. No, we’re not kidding and no you don’t eat it. The caffeine is absorbed through the skin…” If they said it, it must be true, right?

#11: Turn Your Laptop Into a Travel Safe … Sort Of

StashCard
The Stashcard hides cash, credit cards, and that picture of Fluffy you always take with you so you’re not lonely at the hotel.

#12: Hide Your Valuables In Plain (Stained) Sight

Brief Safe
But if you’re at all concerned with hiding lots of money and other valuables inside your most valuable and theft-worthy electronic gadget (read: your laptop), consider BriefSafe. It’s a pair of nasty-looking, “pre-skid marked” drawers with a hidden pocket for all your cash, passport, etc. Add a touch of realistic, poo-smelling Doo Drops and you might not want to touch your own valuables.

#13: Stash Sandals

Reef Stash Sandals
Or if you’d rather your hostel-mates or the hotel chambermaid not think you’re a disgusting chap with a penchant for showing off your poo-laden unmentionables, Reef’s Stash sandals are just the trick. Although they’re technically marketed towards the ladies, they are offered in jet black. So if you’re a dude, no one has to know that you like to wear women’s shoes.

#14: Superman Wine Glasses

Travel Wine Glasses
Le Travel Store fills the travel-addicted gadget-head wino niche perfectly with their Indestructible Travel Wine Glass. You just never know when the urge for booze will strike.

#15: Bottle Opener Sandals

Reef Fanning Sandal
Fancy yourself more of a hops fellah than a wino? The aforementioned Reef has outdone themselves by combining the classic staple of beach life - the sandal - with the classic staple of the beach life boozer - the bottle opener. Introducing the Fanning. Brilliant! Why didn’t someone think of this before?

#16: Wind Up Cell Phone Charger

Wind-Up Cell Phone Charger
If you’re a long ways from home (and a power outlet), this little beauty will keep your cell phone juiced for as long as you have a working hand. Of course, the obvious question is: if you’re that far from civilization, are there likely to be cell towers near you? Just a thought.

#17: GPS Photo Tagger

Sony GPS
Serious traveler/photographers know what a pain in the ass it can be to keep track of where each and every one of their photos were taken. You could keep a running diary of every shot, but who needs that hassle? Enter the Sony GPSCS1KA GPS Unit Kit. All you need to do to use it is turn it on and carry it with you. It takes a snapshot of your location at fifteen second intervals. Back home, the included software checks the EXIF data from each photo and matches it to where you were at that point in time.

#18: A Space Pen To Out Space All Other Space Pens

If John Wayne were a pen, he’d be the Fisher’s Bullet Space Pen. All you need to know:

  • Writes at any angle. Great for harried travelers with cell-phones stuck in their ears having to write on notepaper on a wall.
  • “Writes through dirt, oil, grease and in freezing cold; down to -55F BELOW ZERO”
  • All Brass and Steel Components
  • Unconditional Lifetime Guarantee
  • It’s a no-brainer at less than $17

#19: Waterproof iPod Shuffle

We’re not talking some fancy rubber case to wrap around your iPod. SwimMan actually disassembles genuine iPod Shuffles and reassembles them using “proprietary waterproofing technology”. Neat. You can snag waterproof headphones from them too. What - no photo? C’mon, you know what an iPod Shuffle looks like!

#20: PacSafe Safety Camera Strap

If you’re a serious photographer and one who’s crazy enough to lug a $1K+ camera around on your travels, you’re quite the likely target for hustlers and pickpockets. PacSafe says “the CarrySafe Camera Strap is embedded with snatch-proof, high tensile, stainless steel PacSafe CarrySafe Camera Strapwire”. “Snatch-proof”? Moving along …

#21: Tourist Remover Software … No, I’m Not Kidding

In the same way that HDR photos can take all the best bits from multiple exposures of the same subject and combine them into a single kickass photo, futureLAB’s cleverly named Tourist Remover Software can de-tourist-ify your travel photos. Simply snap a few shots of a building, statue, etc., happy tourists and all. Their software will combine all of the un-touristed sections of each pic into a single tourist-free photo. Simple and pretty damn cool.

#22: Casio Pathfinder Watch

Casio Pathfinder Watch
Plan on climbing Everest? With Casio’s Pathfinder watch, you can lug the rest of the crap on this list around and still know what time it is and how freakin’ cold it is at the top. This beast sports an altimeter, thermometer, compass, barometer, auto-setting atomic clock functionality, tide graph, depth gauge, and dive log. Oh and it’s solar powered. Is it really still considered a watch at this point?

#23: Batman’s Swiss Army Knife

Mega Swiss Army Knife
When an 84-tool Swiss Army Knife isn’t enough, you need Wenger’s Giant Collector’s Swiss Army Knife. This 8-inch monstrosity weighs in at a cool, practical 2 pounds, 11 ounces and boasts 85 tools - that’s every tool ever created by Wenger. Oh and it’s only $1200. The only thing missing? Flamethrower. You just never know when that’ll come in handy.

#24: Keep The Malaria Outta Yo Pants

Is that malaria in your pants or are you just happy to see me? If you’re wearing Ex Officio Buzz Off Insect Shield Clothing, it’s probably the latter. Insects are a real and potentially fatal problem in many parts of the world. So if you’d rather pass on picking up malaria or any number of other fun maladies involving flesh and organ hungry parasites, hook yourself up with these insect repellent infused clothes. The “clothing line has permethrin, a man-made version of a centuries-old natural insect repellent, bonded to the actual apparel, so it repels mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, chiggers, and no-see-ums without having to apply any chemical to your clothes. The odorless protection lasts for 25 washings, doesn’t change the feel of the garments, and comes in everything from socks and shirts to hats and vests—you could swaddle yourself in the stuff.”

#25: Tune In, Tune Out

Ultimate Ears Headphones
Still using Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones. Tsk. Sorry to hear that (pun intended). Outside Online points us to Ultimate Ears ear buds:

The base model—but, trust me, more than adequate—UE-5c ($550, www.ultimateears.com) is tuned specifically to optimize the sound of mastered music and has a low-frequency and high-frequency speaker in each ear, delivering an unbelievable salience of sound—not to mention the full spectrum of a recording. You might as well have your head stuck in an amp. Think of something you know by heart, then think again. Most likely, you haven’t heard the half of it.

Mmkay. Sounds like aural sex (another pun intended). The price includes a visit to an audiologist for a custom fitting. Yup - each pair is 100% custom to each individual’s ears. Sound appealing? (I’m done, really.)

#26: Solar Powered Backpack

Solar Powered Travel Backpack
… and you can throw everything above into the solar-powered Voltaic Backpack. This bad boy will power every one of your gadgets (save your laptop) as long as there’s daylight. And when the sun goes down, you can always take to the streets to impress strangers with your new 8-inch tool (no, your other 8-inch tool).

By the way, I own none of these. So if you’re thinking of some early Christmas shopping … I’m just putting it out there.

Surveillance camera shows a view to a kill

By Maureen Boyle, Enterprise staff writer BROCKTON — As Derrick A. Wilson lay dying in a Dover Street hallway, his accused killer stepped over the 25-year-old man's body and left the building.

A few minutes later, the suspect returned with a woman, and both jabbed Wilson's body with their feet before leaving again.

These events, captured by surveillance cameras, are detailed in paperwork asking murder charges be filed against Kenneth Faulk, 19, of 4 Walker St., Apt. 2, Weymouth, in the slaying.

Faulk was arraigned Wednesday on charges of murder and unlawful carrying of a firearm in connection with Wilson's slaying. Faulk, who offered an innocent plea to the charges, was ordered held without bail, and the case continued until May 30.

Faulk is accused of shooting Wilson to death in the hallway of a renovated factory building at 33 Dover St. Monday night.

Faulk was arrested Tuesday by state police and Brockton Detective Dominic Persampieri at 96 Hillberg Ave.

The paperwork filed by state Trooper Keith A. Sweeney provides a glimpse into the killing and how quickly it occurred.

Surveillance cameras showed Wilson and Faulk enter the building at 10:43 p.m. Monday and walk up a flight of stairs. Two minutes later, Wilson is seen stumbling along the right side of the staircase and comes to rest on his back on the first floor, according to papers filed in court.

“Mr. Faulk is seen walking down the stairs and steps over Mr. Wilson and exits the building,” according to court papers.

Two minutes after that, Faulk returns with woman.

“Mr. Faulk and the female subject enter the first-floor hallway and observe the motionless Mr. Wilson lying on the first-floor hallway floor. At one point, Mr. Faulk and the female party use their feet to jab at Mr. Wilson. Mr. Faulk and the female party then exit the building,” according to court paperwork. Faulk, after his arrest, admitted to Brockton Detective Ernest Bell and Michael Schaff that he saw the victim lying on the floor and again when he returned to the building, according to the paperwork.

Why Wilson was killed was not disclosed. The suspect's cousin rents studio space in the Dover Street building.

Witnesses earlier said they heard yelling in the second-floor hallway area less than an hour before the shooting.

Get a crime plan for business travel

By Steve Rose | Tuesday, August 29, 2006, 09:30 AM The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Here are two points that I would like to share: Several cars, parked in hotel parking lots, were broken into Sunday night, and a whole bunch of items were taken. Ranging from laptops to wallets and golf clubs, a number of items were taken in about seven or eight incidents. What perfect targets. Out of town people coming in on Sunday night for Monday meetings might leave everything in the car, especially if they’re back out of town on Monday night. Hotel security probably focuses on the inside more than outside but you need to know that when you travel you become a better target because you don’t know the area, and unfortunately for most of us, we don’t err on the side of caution or prevention. Why drag all that stuff out of the car only to re-stock it the next morning. Most of us use the “I’ll park in front of the room� or plan B, known as “I’ll park within a hundred feet of the door.� When you travel, at least move the big stuff in for the night. Here is the second point of the day: We had an armed robbery at a check-cashing store. The officer responded to the shop and noticed the video camera. The victim said it was fake. The fake camera is supposed to deter the bad guys. Obviously it didn’t. I found that very surprising given this was a check-cashing store. The loss was over $34,000 cash. I think with that amount on the line, I would get the real thing. We love video. We make a lot of arrests on video and still photos. If you own a business, spend the money and get something you can record on. Then, we can work on the number three problem, putting tape in the machine. Believe it or not, probably a quarter of our robberies and other crimes that are committed in areas equipped with video don’t benefit from it due to human error meaning the tape wasn’t put in or was erased or somehow disabled by the employee. If you own a business, have some in-service employee training and set a documented time frame for training on how to remove and restock video tape or otherwise hard-drive operation. It is always the little things that bite us. Make sure that you put some time in your security plan for your business.
