Key Digital

where can I get an 88 key digital piano with weighted keys?

I doubt there'll be any under $100 but that's the price range I'm looking for. I just want to play piano for fun. I don't want to actually learn it like really really. I just want to play it in my spare time and learn by myself.

you can find it on ebay not amazon. and a lil tip, my parents paid for piano lessons for me and i learned within a couple of months, if u occasionally play in your spare time you wont actually learn how to play, why dont you just pay for lessons?

Touch Nano

What is better iPod touch or iPod nano 3rd generation for features and for price?

I am trying to decide whether to get an ipod nano 3rd generation or an iPod touch 8gb

I would have to say the iPod touch is definitely better. It has far more features than the Nano. Wifi on a music player is great. Safari web browser makes the experience even better. The fact that you can watch videos on YouTube whenever you have a Wifi connection is great. The touch also has various application like mail, calender, maps, weather and notes. You have to admit, it is definitely eye candy. Anytime you take it out, it turns heads. For the price though, the Nano is far cheaper. The iPod touch is anywhere from $300 to $400 for the 8GB and 16GB respectively. So the choice depends on what you want: price or features.

i live in greece so skullcandy's are oput of the qeston . they dont have those here

I would definitely recommend the Sennheiser model over the other models. Sennheiser's have great sound quality with punchy bass and smooth mids/highs, and they have excellent build quality. I don't have any personal experience with the other headphones you listed, but I have tried many models of Sennheisers and have always come away impressed.

If you don't want a full pair of headphones, another good option is the ZAGG Audio Zbuds, especially if you are going to use the earbuds with an iPhone or an iTouch. They also have good sound quality and a built-in mic to use with voice calls.

I have been using my Sennheiser HD-280 Pro headphones for over 2 years now and haven't had any problems. A full review of my experience with these headphones can be found at the links below.

Ipod Charger| Laptop Cases | Bluetooth Headset

There are many choices in having a Bluetooth headset. It has always been as much about looking good as it was about working right. It was one of the first headsets that actually did active noise cancellation correctly: Using a unique sensor that touches your face, it can determine what noises are coming from you and what noises are coming from the outside. Online portals now provide accessories for all kinds gadgets. These accessories include ipod charger Bluetooth headset wireless usb adapter, laptop cases, ipod speakers, skullcandy headphones, ipod headphones, Bluetooth earphones, ipod earphones, sennheiser headphones, cheap ipod speakers, ipod nano cases, iphone 3g accessories, ipod charger and ipod nano accessories. So it used to easy go from great to horrid, and I would constantly go back to the original Jawbone, which was larger, not as good looking, but worked better.

A while after the second-generation product arrived on the market, Aliph came up with new earpieces, which improved fit, and I was able to move to it and use it successfully. I still kind of preferred the first generation for some things, but I ended up using the second generation as my primary headset but was torn between the two, and still occasionally had fitment problems. I was so hooked on this device that people would ask me if something was wrong if I wasn't wearing it, and Microsoft actually had a caricature of me painted with the headset on my head.

The recently announced third generation iphone 3g cases Bluetooth headset wireless usb adapter, laptop cases, ipod speakers, skullcandy headphones, ipod headphones, Bluetooth earphones, ipod earphones, sennheiser headphones, cheap ipod speakers, ipod nano cases, iphone 3g accessories, ipod charger and laptop cases has several enhancements: It fits better than either the first-or second-gen models, and the noise cancellation technology has been substantially improved. When the sensor touches your cheek, it now almost completely eliminates all background noise. In fact, the result is kind of amazing. If it does drift away from your cheek, it appears to go back to non-noise cancelling mode, which introduces background noise, but won't prevent folks from hearing you like the earlier generations did.

The third-gen iphone 3g cases Bluetooth headset wireless usb adapter, laptop cases, ipod speakers, skullcandy headphones, ipod headphones, Bluetooth earphones, ipod earphones, sennheiser headphones, cheap ipod speakers, ipod nano cases, iphone 3g accessories, ipod charger and ipod nano accessories has many benefits: it is small, beautiful, the charge cable will plug into your laptop USB port (so you don't have to carry a charging brick), it comes in a lot of colors, and is the best outbound noise cancellation product on the market especially wind (like in a convertible). However, it is has some disadvantages, too. It still takes some time to fit it to your face every time properly, it is expensive at around $130, and it uses a unique charge connection, so if you forget your cable and the battery goes dead, you are kind of screwed.

If you’re looking for a classy iphone 3g cases Bluetooth headset wireless usb adapter, laptop cases, ipod speakers, skullcandy headphones, ipod headphones, Bluetooth earphones, ipod earphones, sennheiser headphones, cheap ipod speakers, ipod nano cases, iphone 3g accessories, ipod charger and ipod nano accessories that can protect your iPod nano from the elements when you’re outdoors, your search is over.

Plasma Gold

No cheap seats at Olympics — VENT
Go Canada go? Best seats at opening and closing ceremonies $1,100, best seats at gold medal hockey game $775. I wonder what the cheap seats cost — $300 to $500? Seems like the ordinary Canadian can't afford to go without deep pockets or corporate sponsorship.[...]

Selling Blood is Big Business

RED GOLD! As the nickname implies, this is one highly valued substance. It is a precious fluid, a crucial natural resource that has been compared not only to gold but also to oil and coal. However, red gold is not mined from veins in the rocks with drills and dynamite. It is mined from the veins of people by much subtler means.

Please, my little girl needs blood, implores a billboard that looms over a busy avenue in New York City. Other advertisements urge: If you’re a donor, you’re the type this world can’t live without. Your blood counts. Lend an arm.

People who want to help others evidently do get the message. They line up in droves, worldwide. No doubt most of them, as well as the people collecting the blood and the people transfusing the blood, sincerely want to help the afflicted and believe that they are doing so.

But after blood is donated and before it is transfused, it passes through more hands and undergoes more procedures than most of us realize. Like gold, blood inspires greed. It may be sold at a profit and then resold at a larger profit. Some people fight over the rights to collect blood, they sell it at exorbitant prices, they make fortunes from it, and they even smuggle it from one country to another. The world over, selling blood is big business.

In the United States, donors were once paid outright for their blood. But in 1971 British author Richard Titmuss charged that by thus luring the poor and sick to donate blood for the sake of a few dollars, the American system was unsafe. He also argued that it was immoral for people to profit from giving their blood to help others. His attack prompted an end to the paying of whole-blood donors in the United States (although the system still thrives in some lands). Yet, that did not make the blood market any less profitable. Why?

How Blood Remained Profitable

In the 1940’s, scientists began to separate blood into its components. The process, now called fractionation, makes blood an even more lucrative business. How? Well, consider: When dismantled and its parts sold, a late-model car may be worth up to five times its value when intact. Similarly, blood is worth much more when it is divided up and its components are sold separately.

Plasma, which makes up about half of the blood’s total volume, is an especially profitable blood component. Since plasma has none of the cellular blood parts—red cells, white cells, and platelets—it can be dried and stored. Furthermore, a donor is allowed to give whole blood only five times a year, but he can give plasma up to twice a week by undergoing plasmapheresis. In this process, whole blood is extracted, the plasma separated, and then the cellular components are reinfused into the donor.

The United States still allows donors to be paid for their plasma. Moreover, that country permits donors to give about four times more plasma annually than the World Health Organization recommends! Little wonder, then, that the United States collects over 60 percent of the world’s plasma supply. All that plasma in itself is worth about $450 million, but it fetches much more on the market because plasma too can be separated into various ingredients. Worldwide, plasma is the basis for a $2,000,000,000-a-year industry!

Japan, according to the newspaper Mainichi Shimbun, consumes about a third of the world’s plasma. That country imports 96 percent of this blood component, most of it from the United States. Critics within Japan have called that country the vampire of the world, and the Japanese Health and Welfare Ministry has tried to clamp down on the trade, saying that it is unreasonable to profit from blood. In fact, the Ministry charges that medical institutions in Japan make some $200,000,000 in profits each year from just one plasma component, albumin.

The Federal Republic of Germany consumes more blood products than the rest of Europe combined, more per person than any country in the world. The book Zum Beispiel Blut (For Instance, Blood) says of blood products: Over half is imported, mainly from the U.S.A., but also from the Third World. In any case from the poor, who want to improve their income by donating plasma. Some of these poor people sell so much of their blood that they die from blood loss.

Many commercial plasma-centers are strategically located in low-income areas or along the borders of poorer countries. They draw the impoverished and the derelicts, who are all too willing to trade plasma for money and have ample reason to give more than they should or to conceal any illnesses they might harbor. Such plasma traffic has arisen in 25 countries around the world. As soon as it is stopped in one country, it springs up in another. Bribery of officials as well as smuggling is not uncommon.

Profit in the Nonprofit Realm

But nonprofit blood banks have also come under harsh criticism lately. In 1986 reporter Andrea Rock charged in Money magazine that a unit of blood costs the blood banks $57.50 to collect from donors, that it costs the hospitals $88.00 to buy it from the blood banks, and that it costs patients from $375 to $600 to receive it in a transfusion.

Has the situation changed since then? In September 1989 reporter Gilbert M. Gaul of The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote a series of newspaper articles on the U.S. blood-banking system. After a yearlong investigation, he reported that some blood banks beg people to donate blood and then turn around and sell as much as half of that blood to other blood centers, at a considerable profit. Gaul estimated that blood banks trade about a million pints [half a million liters] of blood every year in this way, in a shadowy $50,000,000-a-year market that functions somewhat like a stock exchange.

A key difference, though: This blood exchange is not monitored by the government. No one can measure the exact extent of it, let alone regulate its prices. And many blood donors know nothing about it. People are being fooled, one retired blood banker told The Philadelphia Inquirer. Nobody is telling them that their blood is going to us. They would be furious if they knew about it. A Red Cross official put it succinctly: Blood bankers have for years fooled the American public.

In the United States alone, blood banks collect some 13.5 million pints [6.5 million L] of blood every year, and they sell over 30 million units of blood products for about a thousand million dollars. This is a tremendous amount of money. Blood banks don’t use the term profit. They prefer the phrase excesses over expenses. The Red Cross, for instance, made $300 million in excesses over expenses from 1980 to 1987.

The blood banks protest that they are nonprofit organizations. They claim that unlike big corporations on Wall Street, their money does not go to stockholders. But if the Red Cross did have shareholders, it would be ranked among the most profitable corporations in the United States, such as General Motors. And blood-bank officials do have handsome salaries. Of officials in 62 blood banks surveyed by The Philadelphia Inquirer, 25 percent made over $100,000 a year. Some made more than twice that much.

Blood bankers also claim that they do not sell the blood they collect—they only charge processing fees. One blood banker retorts to that claim: It drives me crazy when the Red Cross says it doesn’t sell blood. That’s like the supermarket saying they’re only charging you for the carton, not the milk.
