Black Friday vs. Cyber Monday

av101 — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 23:37:09 +0000

As you may know, Friday right after the Thanksgiving is called Black Friday.
Because this is the beginning of the traditional Christmas Shopping season, everyone is expected a huge sales on that day from the early morning.

It was named as Black Friday around 1966 on the East coast and became common nationwide after 2000 according to wikipedia description.

On the other hand, we recently hear the new word, Cyber Monday.
This is a marketing term of the Monday right after the Black Friday.
Through the week, due to the beginning of the shopping season, shoppers tend to buy online.
Online shopping also drops the price for a Christmas Shopping.

This year increases 14% sales compared to last year on the Cyber Monday.

This term was made by the National Retail Federation and announced in 2005 in their own website called CyberMonday.com which was designed serving as a portal for Cyber Monday deals and offers.

I also want to find a special deal for Cyber Monday online.
Especially, I was looking for a 500GB Hard Drive which must be a good Christmas present for my girlfriend. She needs a huge hard drive storage to back up.
So, I was doing research online by Googling with some keyword.

Now, if you type Cyber Monday Hard Drive, you can also get some of the best deal around the season. I finally purchased one with free shipping deal for Cavalry Storage CAUM37500

Is that OK to use iPone or iPod in the SAUNA?

av101 — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 07:31:19 +0000

I previously had a question about the electronic audio devices in the sauna. posted in the forum.

I got one reply about it over there.

The guy said that I may not have to worry about the heat.

H0wever, we need to concern the moisture.

In that case, the mist sauna is not really good for iPone or iPod.

I guess I do not have to worry about using cell phone in the dry sauna, but I rather not to use it there.

The end of Analog TV

av101 — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:28:56 +0000

Finally, tomorrow is a new day to start Digital TV programming.

No more Analog TV.

You have to have a digital converter box if you still have anolog.

Or you need to subscribe to Cable Company or Satelite TV.

So, no more analog TV at all?

We really go into a Digital era? In my case, I subscribe Cable TV and then they changed my plan from analog to digital automatically last year.

For a while, the price was based on analog plan, but they recently raised my fee.

It is sucks, but I didn’t have any choice.

I heard that goverment provided a discount coupon for the digital converter box.

Then, you can get it at a really cheaper price around $50?

I missed it because I didn’t need that.

However, I heard that there are subchannel if you have the box.

It is free and cable tv didn’t give us this services.

We will see what’s gonna happen from tomorrw.

Is that OK to use iPone or iPod in the SAUNA?

av101 — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 05:04:59 +0000

I always think if it is OK to use iPone, iPod, or any other devices in the sauna.
I actually often see that many people use them there.
For me, it seems to be really bad to use the electric audio devices in such a hot place.
It is not just hot, but super overheat……

Where can I ask this kind of question? I didn’t take any action so far, but I decided to post my question in some expert forum about audio device technology.

I found one forum page which is called AVforums.com

First, I googled my question, but it seems to be a bit difficult.
Not really difficult, but it may take a bit time to find a right answer.
AVForums.com is a website which people visit to discuss Audio Visual home consumer electronics.
I guess my question is related to audio, right?
Why not I can post my question over there about audio then…?

av101 — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 07:02:48 +0000

Mini Coaxial Cable Features
I found Wireless Mini Coaxial Cable. This is one of the features.

==Features==
HCM’s new Mini-Coaxial cable is fully compliant with Schleuniger’s complete line of precision coaxial cable stripping equipment. Our cable, processed on any Schleuniger coaxial cable stripper will ensure repeatable stripping quality time after time.
Engineered to provide optimal VSWR, minimized attenuation and impedance control.
Multiple wire gauges available.
Various OD’s to meet your specific dimensional needs.
Single Coax or Zip construction available.

==Physical Description==
Wireless Coax Cable Description
50 or 75 ohm mini coax, 19-34 AWG, is insulated and shielded. Shield is either single or dual, with at least 85% coverage. The cable is then jacketed with either a PVC, non-halogen, FEP or PVDF compund or tape in various colors.

==Application==
Mini Coaxial Cable Applications

I still need to learn how to interpret those information whenever I want to buy mini coaxial cable.
