McLaren MP4-12C totalled during Goldrush Rally

Every year in the Goldush Rally, a convoy of high-end luxury cars snake across the States, their occupants enjoying all the opulence their $14,000 entry fees can afford. As our own Michael Harley can attest, it's a low-speed affair, not an all-out speed-fest. As the rally passed through Texas headed through Dallas on Thursday, Hsinho Chen of Massachusetts, driving a McLaren MP4-12C Spider, says he swerved into the highway median to avoid a truck that had pulled in front of him.

Robot Milks Cows On Farm

I am quite sure that one of the more endearing and lasting images of a farm that we have seen to date is not Ol' McDonald and his animals, but rather, someone sitting on a small stool while chatting away to the cow way before the dawn is awakened, milking said cow in a rhythmic and soothing manner. Well, we are now in the 21st century, and if you were to drop by the barn at Farr Farm in Richmond, you would notice that the dairy cows with full udders who are housed there would be queueing up to be milked throughout the day and night.

Munitio SV Earphone Mobile Performance Earphones review

The market is flooded with all sorts of quality, mid-range priced earphones. It seems that every brand has its gimmick, including the company that sent me their latest headphone to review. Munitio may be better known for their 9mm shell casing and bass-boosted earphones, but the SV Mobile Performance Earphones have a more traditional look, with great sound and nice features. Click any image for an enlarged view.
Now, don't get me wrong, I have no issue with bass-boosted headphones in general, but in my opinion not all music benefits from such enhancement.

Well, could it hit the century million mark by the time Nikon's Nikkor lenses celebrate their centenary year.

Antec to extend its Bluetooth product range with Pulse, SP1+, SP3 and SPzero (hands-on)

For those seeking something more powerful, Antec will be offering the larger SP3 Bluetooth boombox. This device also comes with NFC, but unlike the SP1+, it lacks stereo streaming as it doesn't use CSR's Bluetooth solution (it uses ISSC's instead), plus there's probably not much need for this feature on such a large speaker. On the bright side, the SP3 scores some brownie points by letting you use NFC to both wake and pair it up simultaneously, whereas the SP1+ needs you to flick on its power switch first.
