Shootout: 96 Portable Headphones Reviewed (V-Moda M-80 added 11/27/11) Tier B ($50-100) (B1) Koss KSC75 (modded): Besides adding some style points to the plasticky KSCs, the common KSC75 mods do improve the already-great clip-ons, but at a price. List of parts used: Mogami-recabled KSC75 ($30 from head-fi FS forums). 68 Ohm impedance adapter ($18, ebay). Build Quality (6.5/10): Naturally, build quality depends largely on how good the recabling job is. Comfort (8/10): Not much difference in comfort between these and the stock KSCs. Isolation (2.5/10): Though the leatherette pads may help sound leakage around the ear these are still open headphones so the difference is minute. Sound (6.75/10): The sound changes quite noticeably with modding. Value (7/10): Even though I prefer the sound of these to my stock KSC75s, I cannot say that for the average listener the price tag and time investment would be worth it. (B2) AKG K81DJ (a.k.a. Comfort (6/10): With a bit of adjustment when donned the K81s can be comfortable for several hours. Value (8.5/10). Value (9/10).
The Secret World of Serge Gainsbourg Paris, May 23, 2007: Carefully avoiding eye contact with the tourists in the street, Charlotte Gainsbourg quickly lets me into the small, graffiti-covered house at 5 bis Rue de Verneuil. Two blocks from Boulevard Saint-Germain in the Seventh Arrondissement, the house is where her father, Serge Gainsbourg, lived and, on March 2, 1991, died at the age of 62. In the days following his death, France went into mourning, fans crowded the tiny street singing his songs, and the women closest to him sat in his bedroom with his body for four days because Charlotte didn't want to let him go. For 16 years this house has been shuttered and locked, with only the housekeeper or occasional family member allowed inside. Charlotte, an actress and a huge star in France, is now the owner of the house and wants, with the help of architect Jean Nouvel, to turn it into a museum. The Man with a Cabbage Head statue in Gainsbourg's house. "Manners were very important to him," Charlotte says.

Guides: Rock Stable: How to Get Your PC in Tiptop Condition Without even a hint of a doubt, I can say that a reasonable proportion of problems stem from overheating. A lot of this is due to overclocking, but even if you don't overclock, your hardware components can still overheat. They need plenty of cool air to operate within a safe and stable temperature range, and things can get hot in a hurry inside that stuffy PC case, especially during gaming. The first and most important step involves checking to see exactly what temperatures your main components are reaching during your gaming sessions. You'll need to download these handy free tools: The GPU-Z utility is for graphics cards.The Real Temp utility is for Intel CPUs.The Core Temp utility is for Intel and AMD CPUs. Install and launch GPU-Z, and then go to the Sensors tab of the utility. GPU temps are nice and low, but we're only on the Desktop Now run your most strenuous game, or the one which is the least stable, and play for at least 10 minutes; the longer the better.
mixoftheweek.com Top 10 Time-Saving, MacGyver-Style Cleaning Tricks Kandralla is right: vinegar (acid) and baking soda (base) will not unclog a drain and the mixture does not make a good cleaning solution! Mixing an acid and a base creates a little bit of salt and mostly water. Never mix chemicals unless you know what you're doing: Some mixtures are toxic. For example, never mix bleach (aka chlorine) with ammonia! Never mix bleach with vinegar or any acid for that matter! Baking soda is sodium hydrogen carbonate (resist the temptation of calling it sodium bicarbonate— it's not!). Vinegar, like run-of-the-mill white vinegar, is a mixture of acetic acid and water. When you mix baking soda and vinegar you get water, carbon dioxide (creates the bubbles), and sodium acetate. -And, we should point out that the amount of sodium acetate created by mixing vinegar and baking soda does not heat up enough to unclog drains... sorry.
