Oh NoEss!
Golden Center
There are many benefits to living in Hong Kong but my favorite is a place called Golden Center. This is actually a district known for small electronics shops. These are literally 10 feet square tiny shops cramped in multi level labyrinths, one after another, look so similar yet each so different. This is where you get the bottom dollar in electronics and all the crazy little gadgets that never make it to Best Buys nowhere.

I see fat people
It's called HAL (Human Assistive Limb) and it will cost you $4500 starting from October. Developped by Cyberdine (the real one, not the Terminator fantasy) it has already started to show up on Tokyo streets. HAL is about 25kg in weight but will boost your muscle power upto 10 tiger more so you can run around, carry groceries and beat the crap out of that bully effortlessly. As glorious as the future looks on exo-skeletons, I see a lot of people getting addicted to laziness artificial muscles will offer.

Shorts from Separation: Doreen Styles
An artist who lost her left eye in an accident 5 years earlier. A tera-pixel digital camera was successfully implanted in her eye socket and wired to her receptors. She asked for sephia lens option as well as a zoom in feature. She saw the world much differently after this. At a later upgrade she was given digital solid state memory which was connected parallel to her bionic eye as Doreen wanted to record everything she saw from that point on. As Times Magazine’s human of the year, she let the way for many others that followed her path.
