My iPhone 4 was just stolen and I need a replacement.  The "4" worked fine for the most part except for not being able to stay connected to blue tooth devices.  This is/was a known issue that affected many if not all iPhone 4 models from what I can tell from reading the various problems pages on...

Is anyone who owns a 2011 quad core MacBook pro, NOT having heat issues with it?  I'm thinking about upgrading my early 2008 model MacBook, but I've been reading a lot of complaints from owners of recent MacBook Pros and am interested in hearing from those who are HAPPY with their purchase, and...

I just watched a clip tonight on a Toronto TV news broadcast where Paul McCartney, after his concert last night, graciously signed an autograph for one of their newscaster's daughters, and at her request, drew a "peace sign" below his signature, which she proudly displays to the camera.  ...

I've always been a fan of Thomas Edison but never knew of this early application of his then newly invented Phonograph: RARE 1890 EDISON TALKING DOLL w/ORIGINAL MECHANISM - eBay (item 300341063015 end time Sep-04-09 20:00:00 PDT) I've got to visit his museum one of these days. Anybody...

Salvatore and I had been best friends and roommates for the past 14 years. I got him and my MinPin Fritz for company after my marriage ended, and the both of them had essentially become my family. Sal had been slowly deteriorating from liver disease for the past 2 years, and yet had been holding...

Yesterday I sent off some photos to a friend via email and cc'd myself at the same time. I just took a look and both the copy in my sent file and received file for a couple of the emails I sent, have the small image of an eight ball located at the top right of the page in the heading area ...

Late last winter a friend of mine asked me to come out to be a zombie extra in a horror film he was working on called Pontypool. The movie's been shown at several film festivals but today it gets it's first theatrical release in Toronto and will be rolled out on a limited basis to the rest of...

My sister works for Pepsi and managed to score their executive box at the Air Canada Center tomorrow night ... and has given it to me to fill with friends as a birthday gift. The thing is, I can't say I know much about The Killers. I don't have any of their albums and recognize only 3 of their...

I read about it a couple of days ago but can't seem to find anything on it now. Supposedly it's being released at the CES. Apparently you put on a "headphone-like headpiece" which picks up brainwaves which can control several fans, allowing you through thought only, to push around a small ball...

Not surprising of course. What is surprising is that vinyl sales actually increased. Vinyl represents a drop in the bucket compared to overall sales, but still, it's a sign that audiophillia is alive and well. Music sales hit sour note | Music | Entertainment | Toronto Sun

This film documentary has blossomed into an international charity event (Playing For Change) where musicians and supporters intend to build schools of music and art in under-developed areas around the world. Apparently the film's creator originally did a documentary on street musicians which...

I watched a movie a couple of days ago called "Snow Cake", and was surprised to see the first pair of headphones I ever owned being worn by actor, Alan Rickman. What made it surprising was that this movie was made in 2007 in a modern setting, yet I owned those headphones way back in 1968 or...
