The link below will take you to a great post that helped me fix my broken glovebox in less than 30 minutes.

My glovebox would not stay shut and the handle wasn’t doing anything. I noticed that the pins that keep the glovebox locked in were not moving. So I researched this online and found this very useful post. Amazingly I had the exact same problem as shown in the post linked below (and I applied the the same fix). I will admit that the toughest thing was snapping the cover off. It is glued on and does not seem like it wanted to come off. It is very scary taking it off, because you will swear to yourself that something is wrong and that you are breaking it…but you are NOT!!!

For quite some time I have had a problem getting my Philips VOIP321 Phone to work with Skype on Windows 7.  Up to this point the only solution was using the phone with Windows XP.  However, recently I was successful in making the Skype Phone work successfully with WIN 7.  Below you will find steps to help you set up your Philips VOIP321 with WIN 7.

1. Make sure you are starting from scratch!  If you have already installed the VOIP321 software, uninstall it and restart the computer.
2. Download the updated Philips Driver for Windows Vista (voip3211g_37_dwv_eng)
3. Install the downloaded software (voip3211g…)
4. After Installation….
5. Right-click on the VOIP321 icon on the desktop
6. Select “Properties”
7. Click on the “Compatibility” tab
8. Check the “Run this program in compatibility mode for” box
9. Select “Windows Vista (Service Pack 2)”
10. Restart the computer

That’s it!

GM says their new Chevy Volt will get up to 230 miles per gallon in the city.

This would be the first vehicle to exceed the three digit gas mileage barrier.  The car has an electric motor and a small internal combustion engine inside.  The electric motor is rechargeable using your standard home outlet.

Set to hit the showrooms in 2010 this would be a huge jump from the current electric / hybrid cars that do not get more than 100 MPG.

I’m very excited to see what kind of response this car will get when it finally hits the streets.  I do have to mention that as of right now the car is estimated to cost about $40K which limits its consumer market.  However, I am sure that the pricing will be restructured in order to make the vehicle more affordable.

This is one of the most amazing creatures I have ever seen. I have no idea why we have not been pursuing these creatures more and trying to figure out how they work. The fact that they can change their color, shape and design all in a matter of seconds is simply amazing.

True, I am not a huge marine life fan and honestly the Cuttlefish is one of the ugl….is one of the most unique creatures I have ever seen but still it’s abilities are superhuman. After seeing what the Cuttlefish is capable of the line between SciFi and Real Life almost doesn’t exist anymore.

Don’t believe me, check it out for yourself!
