Back in May, we talked about Disney’s Sleeping Beauty and how the Blu-ray release would include BD-Live Internet-enabled extras and features. After viewing the above picture, it looks like you’ll have to read through 57 pages of Terms of Use before you can access your content. Who has time for that? Certainly not a mother with hyperactive children on her hands. Way to go, Disney.
This past weekend, I spent my Saturday visiting the Philadelphia-based Simeone Foundation Museum, Fred Simeone’s personal collection of historic race cars. The museum is packed with cars from the early 1900s up to 1970 (with a few oddballs thrown in for good measure.) I took over 120 pictures at the museum, highlighting every detail. What a lot of people don’t know is that these cars are mostly one-of-a-kind or extremely rare. For instance, there’s a 1964 Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe that Phil Spector used to own. It’s worth about $4 million bucks I hear.
To be honest, you should just click ahead to visit the Simeone Foundation’s website to learn more (there’s just too much to go over) and then visit my Flickr photoset for all the hot photos. Anyone into cars, mechanical engineering, design, racing or history will surely enjoy a magnificent collection of automobiles. After the jump, a taste of my photos and the museum.
The video game industry comes up with a lot of crap. But now and then, there comes a game which everyone holds their breathe for, anticipating its release like a child on his birthday waiting for gifts. Then the inevitable shoot down, when you realize all you’ve gotten for a whole year of being a spoiled brat is a lousy sweater. That is the feeling these would-be games give us. We’ve limited the list down to five secure choices that poked at our consciousness and caused our anxiety to run a muck. Hit the jump to dive in:
Hey, not all sequels suck! Forget about Speed 2: Cruise Control, that movie was garbage. We’ve grouped together a few sequels of well known video game titles that prove that the game industry isn’t disintegrating year after year. Hit the jump to catch the nostalgia:

We like girls. Pixels, polygons and even cosplay, the girls of gaming come in all shapes and sizes. But for this list they can come in only one shape: curvy. We’ve selected 25 of the sexiest video game babes EVER. So while you’re relaxing at the beach with your laptop this July 4th weekend, we thought it’d be nice to provide you with some eye candy that surpasses even the bikini-clad beach broads sitting next to you.

The V-Gear Talkcam Tracer Webcam is not like the other cams on the market with a grainy picture. The Talkcam uses auto-focus and zooming features to keep you looking your best…well, at least the most like yourself.
The Tracer is a 1.3 megapixel camera also capable of displaying video at 30 frames per second. The 1.3 megapixel quality of the camera might not win you any awards in photography, the webcam function of the Tracer is bound to be better then what you currently use.
The Tracer can be yours for around $81.34 (converted from the Euro) and is an especially good investment if you are reliant on creating a professional image when dealing with international companies, or if you just want to look good for that international hottie. — Andrew Dobrow
