Cast out your mobile phones (but keep the SIM card it’s quite important) and get ready for a new dawn in mobile technology. The sWap Watch has arrived. For too long the mobile phone has dominated the landscape of techno communications while the trusty watch was left alone on the bedside table gathering dust while we its selfish masters galavanted from meeting to meeting keeping time with our trusty pocket sized PDA’s. The mobile phone heartlessly usurped the watch of its fundamental duties but the ‘sWap Watch’ is out for revenge and will not stop until the mobile phone has gone the way of the Sun Dial and the Dodo. The tables have now been turned. The sWap Watch doesn’t just double as a mobile phone – it’s like having a multimedia centre strapped to your wrist and all without the crushing shoulder strain. Want to check your emails? Surf the internet? Listen to music? Take Pictures? Watch a movie? MAKE a movie? It does ALL of these. It’s in danger of completely eradicating boredom revolutionising every minute of your day into a potential fun zone. The next time you’re stuck on the train you’ll just need to check out the 1.5 inch screen on your wrist for an instant fix of entertainment that’ll turn your commute into a pleasure cruise rather than a chore. The memory card slot allows you to insert a Micro SD card to upgrade the 512MB on board memory to a whopping 2GB. With all that memory you’ll have no problem storing all the MP3s and movies you’d need for a short jaunt. If you really get bored (and with this watch it’s hard to see how you could) you could even check the time (from one of the many different watch faces stored in it’s memory) or make a phone call. The watch will accept most SIM cards so upgrading is hassle free and making calls couldn’t be simpler – just plug in the hands free kit and you’re good to go. If you really want to go one step beyond and banish those pesky wires along with your mobile phone then you’ll be ecstatic to hear that the watch is Bluetooth compatible. You won’t even have to fork out for the headset as it’s included in the package. This may just be the last gadget you ever need to buy. The future has arrived and it’s a wristwatch. A watch a mobile phone and a media centre all rolled into one. Choose from a number of different watch faces stored in the sWap Watches’ memory.

Noir
Curious tale of a private eye who is hired by a villain to find his homicidal girlfriend. But the story takes a twist when he tracks her down and promptly falls in love with her.”Build my gallows high, baby”–just one of the quintessentially noir sentiments expressed by Robert Mitchum in this classic of the genre. Mitchum, in absolute prime, sleepy-eyed form, relates a complicated flashback about getting hired by gangster Kirk Douglas to find femme fatale Jane Greer. The chain of film noir elements–love, money, lies–drags Mitchum into the lower depths. Director Jacques Tourneur gets the edgy negotiations between men and women as exactly right as he gets the inky shadows of the noir landscape (even the sunlit exteriors are fraught with doubt). This is Mitchum in excelsis, with his usual laid-back cool laced with great dialogue and tragic foreshadowing. As for his co-star, James Agee immortally opined that Jane Greer “can best be described, in an ancient idiom, as a hot number.” Remade in 1984, unhappily, as Against All Odds (with Greer in a supporting role). –Robert Horton

The Zeikos series Professional MULTI-COATED Lens Filter Kit includes 3 essential filters in one package: UV, Polarizer / Polariser, and Flourescent. Zeikos filters, made from the finest solid optical glass, are ground and polished to the most practical thinness. In addition, they are heat-treated to avoid any distortion or focal shift, and each filter is subject to strict tests in order to ensure a flawless, even surface, which is essential to a quality filter and exceptional photographs.
The Zeikos series Professional MULTI-COATED Lens Filter Kit are available in the following sizes:
- Professional 3pc Optical Lens Filter Kit: Glass UV Filter; Glass Circular Polarizer Filter; Glass FLD Fluorescent Filter
Multi-coated filters dramatically reduce any chance of flare, and keep the filter clean to minimize any reduction in image quality
- Suitable for optical lens of 52mm diameter with front mounting thread (for lens/filters to screw on)
- UV filter is mainly used to protect the front element of a camera lens and reduce haze and improve contrast by minimizing the amount of ultraviolet (UV) light
- Circular Polarizing Filter (polarizer) is very important for landscape photography by reducing the contrast between land and sky (sky appears deeper blue) and reducing glare and reflections off of water and other surfaces
- FLD Fluorescent Filter can be used to correct the greenish tone that appears when fluorescent lighting is present
