My First Woot:

Ezonics iContact Pro II Webcam w/ Bluetooth Headset & Dongle

Here is all the FCC info for the headset, which also includes a users manual.

According to the manual:

Yes, this is a rechargeable headset with a lithium polymer battery.

Yes, this headset will work with cellphones.

Excerpt from the manual:

To pair your BMH-10x Bluetooth(R) headset:

1. With your headset turned off, press and hold the talk key for 6
seconds. The LED will alternate rapidly between blue and orange, which
indicates that the headset is in pairing mode.

2. Use your phone’s menu to search for Bluetooth(R) audio devices.
The phone should indicate it has found the “BMH-10X” headset. Confirm
that you want to pair your mobile phone and headset together. If you
are unsure how to go through the pairing process on your mobile phone,
please consult its user manual.

3. When asked for a pin key, enter: “0000”. Your phone will confirm that pairing has been successful.

Faithful
readers of this blog know that I fear for the country I love because I
see it descending into fascism. If you haven’t already read the article I referenced in Top 10 Signs of the Impending U.S. Police State, I encourage you to do so now.

Today, I find further evidence of this disturbing trend. Glenn Greewald writes about how “the thug and intimidation tactics of the Far Right go mainstream.”
He tells of a disturbing, albeit Constitutionally protected, practice
of publishing home addresses of people who offend the likes of Michelle
Malkin. They are labeled “traitors” and the reader is
encouraged sub rosa to commit acts of violence against them.

Updating my WordPress Blogroll – Not as Easy as I Thought

THIS IS A GREAT SITE

Yes, here we go again with another change that I am working on at the
moment for this particular weblog. One that, hopefully, you would be
able to benefit from a bit as well. You may have noticed already, if
you have visited the site, that at this point in time I do not have a
blogroll in the left column of the weblog template and the reason for
that is because I thought I would go ahead and update it first with my
latest additions, taken from my RSS and Atom feeds, so I decided to
start from scratch and reload the list again. It was also a good
opportunity to do some housekeeping and get rid of the feeds that are
broken or those where no new content has been shared in a long while.

However, this time around I decided to split up all of the different
feeds into various categories, so that it is easier for me to track
down the folks I read on a regular basis based on whatever the topics
and then other categories with feeds that I just get to check every
other day. So I have now got my RSS feed client with a good bunch of
categories and their corresponding feeds split up quite nicely. At
least, easier to read, manage and navigate for me.

 Who knew that astronauts led such soap opera lives!

I
jest. I wanted to be an astronaut for many years until I discovered
that I’m terrified of flying. And heights. And gosh darn, if space
travel doesn’t combine both of those!

But the actions of Lisa Marie Bowak sorta make me want to reconsider: Am I truly missing out on something?

Let’s trace through these events as best as we can.
