Sony Noise Canceling Headphones Reviewed

Sony’s latest foray into the world of noise cancelling headphones has resulted in good quality product. The market is clearly dominated by Bose with its’ QuietComfort 2 headphones, which are leading the way in almost every aspect of noise cancelling technology. However, Sony have come up with model, the MDR-NC6, which is a serious contender for those who are after serious sound quality and noise cancelling ability, while still keeping an eye on the budget.

For the techno geeks out there her are some specifications.

Sony claims that their new headphones can reduce ambient sound by over 10dB at 300Hz. This is nothing short of spectacular when considering that the asking price for this unit is under half that of the Bose alternative. Bose’s headphones are also reviewed by this author at http://www.cancellingnoise.com. As should be expected from an established company like Sony, the MDR-NC6 comes with all of the standard features, such as:

-adjustable headset -swivel folding earcups -compact flat folding design and, -plug adaptor for both in-flight and home stereo compatibility

These features can be found on any noise cancelling headphones that are worth their salt.

Basically these headphones are best described as a close second to its Bose counterpart. Both the passive and active noise cancelling capability of Bose is superior to this model but the real advantage lies in the price. This model proves that you don’t need to pay exorbitant amounts of money for high quality noise cancelling headphones. Essentially, Bose have pioneered this new technology with a tremendous product, but Sony are blazing a new trail, which may just prove to be more successful in the marketplace. In any case, the duel between these two giants of the audio industry is destined to see consumers win.

The Costs of Coalition Building

Foreign aid, foreign trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) have become weapons of mass persuasion, deployed in the building of both the pro-war, pro-American coalition of the willing and the French-led counter “coalition of the squealing”.

By now it is clear that the United States will have to bear the bulk of the direct costs of the actual fighting, optimistically pegged at c. $200 billion. The previous skirmish in Iraq in 1991 consumed $80 billion in 2002 terms - nine tenths of which were shelled out by grateful allies, such as Saudi Arabia and Japan.

Even so, the USA had to forgive $7 billion of Egyptian debt. According to the General Accounting Office, another $3 billion were parceled at the time among Turkey, Israel and other collaborators, partly in the form of donations of surplus materiel and partly in subsidized military sales.

This time around, old and newfound friends - such as Jordan, an erstwhile staunch supporter of Saddam Hussein - are likely to carve up c. $10 billion between them, says the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. Jordan alone has demanded $1 billion.

According to the Knight Ridder Newspapers, in February 2003, an Israeli delegation has requested an extra $4-5 billion in military aid over the next 2-3 years plus $8 billion in loan guarantees. Israel, the largest American foreign and military aid recipient, is already collecting c. $3 billion annually. It is followed by Egypt with $1.3 billion a year - another rumored beneficiary of $1 billion in American largesse.

Turkey stands to receive c. $6 billion for making itself available (however reluctantly, belatedly, and fitfully) as staging grounds for the forces attacking Iraq. Another $20 billion in loan guarantees and $1 billion in Saudi and Kuwaiti oil have been mooted.

In the thick of the tough bargaining, with Turkey demurring and refusing to grant the USA access to its territory, the International Monetary Fund - thought by many to be the long arm of US foreign policy - suddenly halted the disbursement of money under a two years old standby arrangement with the impoverished country.

It implausibly claimed to have just unearthed breaches of the agreement by the Turkish authorities. This systemic non-compliance was being meticulously chronicled - and scrupulously ignored by the IMF - for well over a year now by both indigenous and foreign media alike.

Days after a common statement in support of the American stance, the IMF clinched a standby arrangement with Macedonia, the first in two turbulent years. On the same day, Bulgaria received glowing - and counterfactual - reviews from yet another IMF mission, clearing the way for the release of a tranche of $36 million out of a loan of $330 million. Bulgaria has also received $130 million in direct US aid between 2001-3, mainly through the Support for East European Democracy (SEED) program.

But the IMF is only one tool in the administration’s shed. President Bush has increased America’s foreign aid by an unprecedented 50 percent between 2003-6 to $15 billion. A similar amount was made available between 2003-8 to tackle AIDS, mainly in Africa.

Half this increase was ploughed into a Millennium Challenge Account. It will benefit countries committed to democracy, free trade, good governance, purging corruption and nurturing the private sector. By 2005, the Account contained close to $5 billion and is being replenished annually to maintain this level.

This expensive charm offensive was intended to lure and neutralize the natural constituencies of the pacifistic camp: non government organizations, activists, development experts, developing countries and international organizations.

As the war drew nearer, the E10 - the elected members of the Security Council - also cashed in their chips.

The United States has softened its position on trade tariffs in its negotiations of a free trade agreement with Chile. Immigration regulations were relaxed to allow in more Mexican seasonal workers. Chile received $2 million in military aid and Mexico $44 million in development finance.

US companies cooperated with Angola on the development of offshore oilfields in the politically contentious exclave of Cabinda. Guinea and Cameroon absorbed dollops of development aid. Currently, Angola receives c. $19 million in development assistance.

Cameroon already benefits from military training and surplus US arms under the Excess Defense Articles (EDA) program as well as enjoying trade benefits in the framework of the Africa Growth and Opportunity Act. Guinea gets c. $26 million in economic aid annually plus $3 million in military grants and trade concessions.

The United States has also pledged to cause Iraq to pay its outstanding debts, mainly to countries in Central and East Europe, notably to Russia and Bulgaria. Iraq owes the Russian Federation alone close to $9 billion. Some of the Russian contracts with the Iraqi oil industry, thought to be worth dozens of billions of dollars, may even be honored by the victors, promised the Bush administration. It reneged on both promises. Debt relief reduced Iraq’s debt by 90% and all Saddam Hussein era contracts were vitiated.

Thus, the outlays on warfare are likely be dwarfed by the price tag of the avaricious constituents of president Bush’s ramshackle coalition. New York Times columnist Paul Krugman aptly christened this mass bribery, “The Martial Plan”. Quoting “some observers”, he wrote:

“The administration has turned the regular foreign aid budget into a tool of war diplomacy. Small countries that currently have seats on the U.N. Security Council have suddenly received favorable treatment for aid requests, in an obvious attempt to influence their votes. Cynics say that the ‘coalition of the willing’ President Bush spoke of turns out to be a ‘coalition of the bought off’ instead’.”

But this is nothing new. When Yemen cast its vote against a November 1990 United Nations Security Council resolution authorizing the use of force to evict Iraq from Kuwait - the United states scratched $700 million in aid to the renegade country over the following decade.

Nor is the United States famous for keeping its antebellum promises.

Turkey complains that the USA has still to honor its aid commitments made prior to the first Gulf War. Hence its insistence on written guarantees, signed by the president himself. Similarly, vigorous pledges to the contrary aside, the Bush administration has allocated a pittance to the reconstruction of Afghanistan in its budgets - and only after it is prompted to by an astounded Congress.

Macedonia hasn’t been paid in full for NATO’s presence on its soil during the Kosovo conflict in 1999. Though it enjoyed $1 billion in forgiven debt and some cash, Pakistan is still waiting for quotas on its textiles to be eased, based on an agreement it reached with the Bush administration prior to the campaign to oust the Taliban.

Congress is a convenient scapegoat. Asked whether Turkey could rely on a further dose of American undertakings, Richard Boucher, a State Department spokesman, responded truthfully: “I think everybody is familiar with our congressional process.”

Yet, the USA, despite all its shortcomings, is the only game in town. The European Union cannot be thought of as an alternative benefactor.

Even when it promotes the rare coherent foreign policy regarding the Middle East, the European Union is no match to America’s pecuniary determination and well-honed pragmatism. In 2002, EU spending within the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership amounted to a meager $700 million.

The EU signed association agreements with some countries in the region and in North Africa. The “Barcelona Process”, launched in 1995, is supposed to culminate by 2010 in a free trade zone incorporating the European Union, Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, the Palestinian Authority, Syria and Turkey. Libya has an observer status and Cyprus and Malta have joined the EU in the meantime.

According to the International Trade Monitor, published by the Theodore Goddard law firm, the Agadir Agreement, the first intra-Mediterranean free trade compact, was concluded In March 2003 between Egypt, Jordan, Morocco and Tunisia. It is a clear achievement of the EU.

The European Union signed a Cooperation Agreement with Yemen and, in 1989, with the Gulf Cooperation Council, comprising Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates and Oman. A more comprehensive free trade agreement covering goods, services, government procurement and intellectual property rights is in the works. The GCC has recently established a customs union as well.

Despite the acrimony over Iran’s not-so-civilian nuclear program, the EU may soon ink a similar set of treaties with Iran with which the EU has a balanced trade position - c. $7 billion of imports versus a little less in exports.

The EU’s annual imports from Iraq - at c. $4 billion - are more than 50 percent higher than they were prior to Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait in 1990. It purchases more than one quarter of Iraq’s exports. The EU exports to Iraq close to $2 billion worth of goods, far less than it did in the 1980s, but still a considerable value and one fifth of the country’s imports. EU aid to Iraq since 1991 exceeds $300 million.

But Europe’s emphasis on trade and regional integration as foreign policy instruments in the Mediterranean is largely impracticable. America’s cash is far more effective. Charlene Barshefsky, the former United States trade representative from 1997 to 2001, explained why in an opinion piece in the New York Times:

“The Middle East … has more trade barriers than any other part of the world. Muslim countries in the region trade less with one another than do African countries, and much less than do Asian, Latin American or European countries. This reflects both high trade barriers … and the deep isolation Iran, Iraq and Libya have brought on themselves through violence and support for terrorist groups … 8 of (the region’s) 11 largest economies remain outside the WTO.”

Moreover, in typical EU fashion, the Europeans benefit from their relationships in the region disproportionately.

Bilateral EU-GCC trade, for instance, amounts to a respectable $50 billion annually - but European investment in the region declined precipitously from $3 billion in 1999 to half that in 2000. The GCC, on its part, has been consistently investing $4-5 billion annually in the EU economies.

It also runs an annual trade deficit of c. $9 billion with the EU. Destitute Yemen alone imports $600 million from the EU and exports a meager $100 million to it. The imbalance is partly attributable to European non-tariff trade barriers such as sanitary regulations and to EU-wide export subsidies.

Nor does European development aid compensate for the EU’s egregious trade protectionism. Since 1978, the EU has ploughed only $210 million into Yemen’s economy, for instance. A third of this amount was in the form of food support. The EU is providing only one fifth of the total donor assistance to the country.

In the meantime, the USA is busy signing trade agreements with all and sundry, subverting what little leverage the EU could have possessed. In the footsteps of a free trade agreement with Israel, America has concluded one with Jordan in 2000. The kingdom’s exports to the United States responded by soaring from $16 million in 1998 to c. $400 million in 2002. Washington negotiated a similar deal with Morocco. It is usurping the EU’s role on its own turf. Who can blame French president Jacques Chirac for blowing his lid?

An Honest Factsheet on Botox

Sydney Botulinum injections (B.tox for short) has become established in Sydney society in fact it is becoming an important part of any beauty routine for some individuals in Sydney. Nevertheless I never fail to be astonished by the various half-truths that have originated around this uncomplicated treatment. Here I have included some of the myths that I hear day in day out in my work as a physician at Star Cosmetic Medicine in Pyrmont, Sydney.

Mistake Number 1: I will lose my facial expressions!

There are about 60 muscles below the skin of your face. The extensive use of these muscles can result in fine lines or wrinkles. The overuse of Botulinum Toxin may result in the face becoming too relaxed. Most doctors would use comparatively low amounts to result in you looking less tired, yet you will maintain your normal expression.

So by injecting tiny quantities of the preparation in just the right spot you should have a softening of the wrinkles without any compromise in facial expression.

Mistake Number 2: Botulinum is a toxic substance!
There is a grain of truth in this. Its scientific name is Botulinum Toxin Type A. Too large a quantity may relax muscles that you do not want loosened and can even cause serious illness.

However to keep things in perspective - an ancient pharmacist’s saying is that ‘everything is a poison - all depending on the dose’. Every medication in a large enough amount may make you ill. If you drink too great a quantity of water it can be fatal.

Mistake Number 3: B.tox hurts!
Your hairs are thicker than the hypodermic needles we use at Star Cosmetic Medicine. Several individuals liken the shots to a bug bite. It is decidedly less sore than a procedure like a blood profile.

Mistake Number 4: My face will be numb!
Totally incorrect. B.tox works on the junction between the nerve and the facial muscle, not sensate nerve fibers. B.tox only targets the relaxation of muscular tissues.

Mistake Number 5. You must keep having B.tox otherwise you may age quicker than before!
Again this is just false.

A B.tox treatment will last approximately 3 months. Any further injections after the first one ordinarily last a few weeks longer. Eventually as muscle strength returns to normal - the lines will slowly re-emerge. However your lines will not be any worse than when you began your B.tox therapy.

As A Matter Of Fact any wrinkles will more often than not be less noticeable than if you had never undergone B.tox injections - even if you don’t repeat the treatment. Principally due to the fact that your facial muscles and skin have had a rest whilst the B.tox was active.

Online Poker Legalization

The ongoing crusade to legalize online poker all around the world goes on.

This week’s, poker online rights advocacy blog Right2bet has written about an E.U licensed commercial gambling operator that has found themselves unfairly legislated against, and is taking the matter through the legal system.

This time it’s in Italy, where Stanleybet have been denied a license to operate, yet fellow E.U licensed operators - such as the Austrian company Goldbet - have been passed. This also forces the closure of around 20 outlets in the country, which will mean significant job losses in the sector.

The European commission are also featured in this week’s blog - having admitted that most of the decisions currently being made in member states are made without any real research into the area of problem gambling, which many governments cite as a reason to restrict the industry to State-run companies.

The Right 2 bet site is available in a multitude of languages, and contains all the latest related news from throughout the continent, as well as light hearted comment and features - such as the regular ‘Poetry Corner’ and the opportunity to mail your M.E.P.

The site also has a petition that citizens of the E.U. can sign to show they are against overly strict poker online gambling regulations.

Henry Kravis of Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co. , the Environmental Defense Fund and the Growth of Green Business

Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co (KKR) was launched in the 70’s and in those days the firm’s specialty was in ‘bootstrap’ buyouts. But in a drive to make their portfolio companies and acquisitions more ecologically friendly and more profitable in the same stride, KKR have set in motion an innovative enterprise that has transformed the way business concerns and environmental activists work in a big way. When Henry Kravis from KKR and the New York based Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) got together only a year ago environmental matters in the business community became a hot topic. This coalition wants to tackle fundamental green issues, such as climate change, toxic waste, monumental water consumption, and toxic chemicals.

In order to achieve these goals, they employ eco-efficiency; this involves concepts such as using clean energy, reducing the intensity of materials, and increasing the durability of products. Although the project was an enormous success, no-one realized how important the consequences were until Ken Mehlman, the head of the project and global public affairs, reviewed the numbers for the first year.

Much to everybody’s surprise, Ken discovered that this program not only helped in proctecting the environment, but was increasing the profits from each business organization besides. Just about all of the business concerns connected with Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co and Ken Mehlman nowadays are taking part in the project. Seeing that the portfolio has a net worth of 86,000,000,000 dollars, you can see what a massive feat this really is. These two groups alongside Ken Mehlman have also expanded the initial Green Portfolio project. The Climate Corps Program administered by the Environmental Defense Fund is just one of these, it promotes cost efficient, green procedures to interns studying for an MBA.

Moreover, Ken Mehlman has cooperated closely with Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Co to create metrics which a range of business concerns can utilize to evaluate resources. Programs like these let any business organization to assess their progress and identify any underlying issues. Henry Kravis, the KKC, and the Environmental Defense Fund have encouraged all sorts of businesses to go green. These innovations have set a benchmark for organizations in any sector and illustrated that making profits need not entail the hefty price of negatively impacting our planet.

Advanced Features of Gas Suppression

Gas Fire Suppression is rightfully a captivating scientific advancement. In my thought, it is the most desirable fire suppression scheme for offices, stores and homes. How they work to end fires is what makes them truly unique and special.


2 things are involved for a fire to occur. Materials that ignite would be first and then oxygen would be second. A reasonable and effective method to prevent fires from propagating would be to take away one or the other. This idea is the base of Gas Suppression. What it performs is it will restrict the quantity or bearing of oxygen when fires happen. Even when flammable stuffs are around, the fire’s capacity to ignite is substantially decreased when oxygen is restricted or absent. This would result to fires not propagating and consuming as much as they usually can.


Compared to water and foam fire extinguishers, Fire Suppression is not disheveled. They leave the area very filthy when they are employed. They will impart residue subsequently which you involve to wash and strip. In addition to that, water and foam can damage papers, electric or electronic equipments and other fixtures. It would be very daunting and stressful to learn that what they preserved from combusting, they destroyed anyway. To point out, it seems inconsistent that what you protected from the fire are broken by the same thing you used to put away the fire with.


Based on the region you like to set up the fire suppression system in, you can utilize wall mounted gas cylinders for conservative regions. For large regions, the full-pipe installation is employed. Ordinarily, Gas Suppression system doesn’t eat up huge places for it to be put in. You would take to learn the size of the area first beforehand knowing the extent of the fire suppression process you take to instal. Looking for the assistance from professionals and fire officials is most preferred to avoid malfunctions.


Getting into circumstance these characteristics and benefits, I trust that Gas Suppression is the optimal fire system technology usable.
