Kevin Skinner is the Winner of America's Got Talent 2009 Season 4



Tonight "America's Got Talent" crowned Kevin Skinner as the winner of season four.

After a video synopsis of last night, Nick asks the judges for predictions about the winners. Piers says he has no idea this year. Sharon says tonight is bittersweet but she can't wait to see who America has chosen. The Hoff makes more "Hoff" puns while being dressed like an extra from "Dick Tracy."

Disco & Boobs
We now have the Top 10 finalists performing Thelma Houston's "Don't Leave Me This Way." I'm trepidatious, but then I remember that like 70% of the finalists are singing acts. Just when I think this will be BETTER than when "American Idol" threw Freda Payne, Thelma Houston and KC at us, Thelma Houston's boobs jiggle their way on stage in a green version of the same dress she wore on Idol. This is two big reality shows for Ms. Houston in six months, who is she sleeping with?

Oh my god, Kevin Skinner has to sing with her and it's scary. Kevin is DEFINITELY not disco. Drew Stevyns takes over and it's marginally better. Lawrence Beaman goes next and that's pretty good. The Fab Five, Hairo Torres and Recycled Percussion get featured together and that's pretty sweet, but I cannot stop focusing on the undulating bosom of Thelma Houston. Nightmare fuel.

Leona Lewis Performs
I love Leona Lewis, she's so good and super-pretty and I love that she hasn't gotten her nose done. Own your looks, ladies. Leona performs her single "Happy." It's no "Bleeding Love," but it's a good song in its own right.

There's a logo in the bottom left-hand corner reminding me that Jay Leno is on next. Does anybody else wonder why he quit late-night to do essentially the same thing 90 minutes earlier? It's not like those shows are live, either, so he's doing the same thing. I don't get it.

Audition Montage
Crazy monkey-call lady, a bad magician, Tom Everett Scott dancing, a face-driller, the weird contortionist sisters, Bret Michaels, bad singers, the sex-swing couple, a tiny Jewish Elvis, Avenue Q meets a bad country bar, the creepy dancing barber Tony, Edith Ann, a screaming girl who promptly went home and cut herself, and the big lady who danced with Nick Cannon (which, admittedly, was AWESOME).

And now some of the bad auditions are HERE. We have Bret Michaels and Dancing Tony and... some guys in gold lame and tiny Jewish Elvis and screaming cutter girl and creepy puppet guy and the weird suitcase sisters and Edith Ann and big dancing girl, who is dressed like she ate the cast of of the 80s version of "Fame." Hey, there's the sex-swing couple! At the end, the magician does a trick where his assistant turns into Grandma Lee and Piers dressed in their wedding finery. Okay, that was mildly funny. Piers is a good sport.

Nick Cannon sends us to commercial while faux-spanking Big Girl Dancer. He's a good sport too, I really like Nick Cannon as the host.

Cirque du Soleil
Banana Shpeel is their show and it's their take on Vaudeville. It's quite stylized and very neat to watch. I love the costumes and music. Very entertaining.

Orville Lounge Time
Grandma Lee says she's naming her baby Nick. Drew gets sexually harassed by Sharon via Nick. The Fab Five teach Nick how to clog. Yes, yes, get on with it.

Montage of the Season
How is this different from the montage of the Top 10 we saw at the beginning and the Montage of the Auditions we just saw? Sigh.

We finally get some results. Nick brings down 5 pairs of acts and eliminates one and keeps the other. The first pair is Barbara Padilla and Hairo Torres and Barbara is in the Top 5. Next up is Lawrence Beaman and the Voices of Glory. Lawrence advances, so no surprises yet. Holy crap. Voices of Glory advanced. I typed that last sentence just assuming it would be Lawrence. WOW.

The third pairing is -- oh dammit. The Fab Five and the Texas Tenors. Dammit all. I just know it's the Texas Tenors. Blech. And then Ken Doll and his Cronies advance. Sigh. Next up is Kevin Skinner and Drew Stevyns. Well, this is obvious. If the comments on my article from the other night are any indication, Kevin Skinner is JESUS and I am a puppy-killing devil. [eye roll] So Kevin advances, shocker. The last pair is Recycled Percussion and Grandma Lee. Thank God Recycled Percussion goes through.

This show is a joke. "Talent?" Kevin Skinner is awful and he'll probably win and that is terrible. I'm not saying anything bad about him as PERSON. I'm sure he's a very nice man. But this show is not called "America's Best Sob Story" and the fervor with which the judges were fellating Skinner last night is gross. Also: the American public is full of idiots.

Silly Judges Montage
This is all very nice and I DO like the judges on this show, but my god. This finale could SERIOUSLY be an hour. Ugh.

Shakira Performs
I don't love Shakira, not going to lie. And her song is called "She-Wolf?" What? Oh lord. I could not care less about this over-produced electronic song with bad dancing.

Results
We now narrow the Top 5 to the Top 2. Sigh. If it's the Texas Tenors and Kevin Skinner, I will poke sharp sticks in my ears. It SHOULD be Recycled Percussion and Barbara Padilla, but I don't think it will be. The fifth-place act is Voices of Glory. Fourth place goes to the Texas Tenors. Well, thank God. Now if Kevin Skinner can just take 3rd. Third place is... Recycled Percussion. Sigh. Of course it is.

Piers says you could not have two more different acts for the winner. Well yeah. You have one with a lot of talent and one with not very much talent who gets votes for... I don't even know why. I love country music and Kevin Skinner seems like a nice guy, but he has not had a good performance since his first audition. His tone is fine but he can't carry a tune. He just can't, guys. If you think he can, you are DEAF. I can't believe he's in the Final Two.

Rascal Flatts
We now have the Boy Band of Country Music. I like Rascal Flatts, they have good harmonies. If you think the Texas Tenors are any good, you should try a real trio of singers like Rascal Flatts.

Top Two Montage
Yet ANOTHER montage of this season. OH MY GOD, GET ON WITH IT! Lord in heaven.

Susan Boyle Performs
This is the only part of tonight I've been looking forward to. At least Britain can put two worthy talents in the Final Two. Tonight she sings "Wild Horses" and it's VERY good. I love this song, too. It makes me think of Buffy.

Results Time
Nick Cannon announces that the winner of "America's Got Talent" is...Kevin Skinner. God. Gag me.

Verizon Wireless unveils AD3700 USB modem with ZTE USA



With more and more folks jet setting around the world and the proliferation of fast mobile connectivity thanks to 3G technology, it makes perfect sense for notebooks to be similarly equipped in order to tackle the well seasoned traveler who absolutely cannot live without an Internet connection for more than a day.

Instead of searching for the nearest Wi-Fi hotspot at your destination to get your daily Facebook fix, why not settle for something that is more reliable (and on-demand to boot) in developed areas, which comes in the form of a Mobile Broadband USB modem? Verizon Wireless and ZTE USA have teamed up to bring their latest Mobile Broadband USB modem, the AD3700 to the masses that boasts global connectivity, offering customers access to high-speed networks in over 175 destinations which covers Evolution-Data Optimized (EV-DO), Global System for Mobile communications (GSM)/General Packet Radio Service (GPRS)/Enhanced Data Rates for Global Evolution (EDGE) and High Speed Packet Access (HSPA)/Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) wireless platforms.
Among the key features found on the AD3700 include :-
Runs on Verizon Wireless’ high-speed network, which uses EV-DO Revision A (Rev. A) technology
Includes VZAccess Manager software for easy connection management and automatic installation
Swivel hinge USB
Windows Vista/XP/2000 Operating System compatibility
USB 2.0 high-speed interface
Weight of 1.6 ounces
3.1″ x 1.7″ x 0.5″
Lifestyle features:
The AD3700 can be said to be perfect for individuals and organizations that want to make sure there is a way to remain connected while on-the-go, where all you need to do is activate the global feature on your Verizon Wireless account and you’re good to go. Upon doing so, the AD3700 will detect the local network and connect to the fastest Internet speed available automatically, regardless of where you are in the world – of course, it does help if you tend to spend most of your time in fairly developed areas so that you won’t have to “suffer” on painstakingly slow GPRS speeds. The AD3700 USB modem will retail for $79.99 after a $50.00 mail-in rebate alongside a new two-year customer agreement on a Mobile Broadband plan.

Casio announces Privia PX-330



With everything going digital these days, it comes across as no surprise to see Casio release yet another digital grand piano onto the market half a dozen years after they made the initial foray with the Privia line, offering a lightweight portable instrument with the sound and feel of a grand piano minus the grand price tag. The latest in the digital revolution effort is spearheaded by the Privia PX-330, where it will bring together unprecedented audio quality and performance while looking sleek.

Musicians will find that the new grand piano sound offered in the PX-330 is made up of a quartet of dynamic layers of stereo piano samples. More realistic sound with seamless transitions and a superior dynamic range is on the tables when integrated with Casio’s Linear Morphing System .In addition, a new Tri-Sensor 88-note scaled hammer action keyboard is capable of offering users the weight, feel and resistance of a grand piano without having to turn it into something bulky that only the Incredible Hulk could lug around.
Unless you’re some weird and crazy musical genius, the Casio PX-330 is equipped with 128-note polyphony that ought to be able to cater to even the most demanding musical passages without missing a beat, and you can go on layering sounds while using the damper pedal without worrying about dropping notes. The inclusion of an acoustic Resonance Effect will further simulate the sound of the dampers released off the strings by the sustain pedal, bringing realism to an entirely new level.
The Casio PX-330 will also come with 250 instrument sounds and a 16-track recorder, allowing budding and seasoned musicians alike the ability to churn out recordings of up to 16 separate instruments. There is a graphic LCD display available that provides vital information to users at a glance, where one can check out the names of all sounds, songs, rhythms in a jiffy while helping assist in editing and recording functions. Instead of the old floppy disk of yore, the Casio PX-330 relies on the SD memory card format to load and store your compositions while transferring them over to another computer. Connectivity options include a built-in USB MIDI interface, ¼” outputs for connectivity to mixers and PA systems and a built-in registration memory. Expect to pick up the Casio PX-330 for $799.99 this September.

The New Electronic Breast Enhancer



I usually don’t cover products like the Electric Bust Enhancer, but I or someone else has covered all the other coolest gadgets for this Friday.

What you are seeing there are two devices that a lady sticks in her bra cup, and then it massages. Apparently, this soft vibration keeps breasts healthy, and protects “against age and gravity”. According to the Uxsight web site, a lot of women have seen the results quite quickly, and is “enjoyable for the women”.
Ye-e-a-ah. I’m not certain I should be covering this, but who am I to crown myself the king of prudes? Anyway, each of those cups is battery powered with an AG13 cell, and there doesn’t seem to be a warning about wearing these too much.
So, does anyone know if there is a scientific principle that would make this work? Considering the money that plastic surgeons are given by aging trophy wives every year to restore their (insert any word for “breasts” here, go on, you have such a limitless choice) it would be simpler if this device could save them.
Well, feel free to leave a comment to let me know what you think. If you decide that this product is for you, feel free to head over to the Uxsight web site and lay down $10.69 for a pair of these good vibrations.

128GB Flash Voyager GT Corsair unveils



Remember the good old days where USB flash drives came in capacities of Megabytes (MBs)? Well, those days are long gone and have been replaced by Gigabytes (GBs), and we’ve seen the number jump from 1GB to 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB and even 64GB.

It does make me wonder just how hard finding stuff on it will become in the long run with something so huge to sift through. Well, Corsair has clearly upped the ante yet another time by releasing their latest USB flash drive known as the 128GB Flash Voyager GT, making it the fastest high capacity 128GB USB flash drive in the world at the same time. This new Flash Voyager GT works differently since it is based upon a revolutionary design which relies on a unique dual-controller architecture in order to achieve SLC-levels of performance using MLC NAND flash memory. According to Corsair, the 128GB Flash Voyager GT can hit read speeds of up to 32MB/sec and write speeds of up to 25.6MB/sec, where the bottleneck has been pointed at the speed of the USB 2.0 bus and operating system overhead.
The 128GB Flash Voyager GT will come with a durable and water-resistant rubber housing that adds extra protection to the drive against accidental damage, while the racing-red ‘GT’ styling continues to be the trademark of Corsair’s ultra high-performance products.
If you’re interested in picking up the 128GB Flash Voyager GT, it is readily available from Corsair’s authorized distributors and resellers worldwide, and each purchase will actually come with a 10-year limited warranty for added peace of mind. Have you ever gave a thought and wonder just how large USB flash drives can get in 10 years’ time? We’re betting it will be in the Terabytes (TB), just in case you’re a gambling person.

Logitech Anounce the Remote Harmony 900



Remote controls have become a staple device for many of us these days, and more often than not there will be a tussle among family members for essential remotes in the living room at prime time for obvious reasons. Logitech themselves have delved into the world of remote controls in the past, and they show no signs of slowing down in that department.

Recently, the Swiss company has rolled out the Logitech Harmony 900 remote that boasts redesigned RF technology, a full color touchscreen display alongside intuitive button layout to help even newbies get used to it as soon as possible. The Logitech Harmony 900 remote relies on rechargeable batteries to keep it going, allowing you to enjoy a whole range of entertainment from movies to games and music even when the respective components are located safely behind cabinet doors.
The Logitech Harmony 900 remote’s redesigned RF system turns you into a mini living room deity, capable of controlling an entire cabinet’s worth of devices and appliances as long as they remains within a 100 foot radius. This remote also allows you to wield such powers without getting bogged down by hassles and problems that are normally associated with RF setups. All you need to do is place the IR blaster that comes with each purchase alongside one or two of the mini blasters on the cabinet shelves near the devices that you want to gain control and you’re good to go. The color touchscreen devices allows you to choose your device of choice with but a gentle touch of the finger, and when the setup process is complete, you’re able to control everything programmed inside even with the cabinet doors closed.
Expect the Logitech Harmony 900 remote to arrive in the US and Europe later next month for $399.99 a pop, where it will be accompanied by a recharging cradle, rechargeable battery, power supply, IR blaster and two mini blasters. Logitech has plans to roll out more blasters and mini blasters online in selected regions.
