Ten years of vocal training is a high price to pay just to carry out the party trick of being able to shatter a glass with your yelps, but what if we told you that you could do the same thing with a gadget? All you have to do is take a glass, set it in front of an amp+mic system, and manage to match your singing to the resonance frequency of the glass. Once you do, you’ll be out $1.95 and your friends will be briefly amused. Of course, if you wanted to do it the old-fashioned way, it’ll be even more impressive. [Wikihow via Make - Image]

Stanley_park In what might seem like a rare example of good sense from the Huge Content industry, film studio Lionsgate has announced plans to sell special-edition DVDs that include an iPod/iPhone version of the movie.

Not so great news: The discs will be loaded up with DRM that requires a serial code to load the movie into iTunes and limits each disc to attachment to a single iTunes library.

Truly bad news: The initial releases are “Rambo” and “The Eye,” which feels rather like a slap at the taste of Appletonians. “Rambo,” in particular, seems like the kind of opus destined to be viewed on a low-end portable DVD player.
