TechBargains.com, a leading deal aggregation website for electronic products, breaks down three simple tech-related ways to save on monthly energy bills while being mindful of Mother Nature in time for Earth Day, Sunday, April 22.

Adjust Power Guzzling TV Settings

Televisions, particularly Plasma TVs, consume large amounts of power. Most televisions are set to wow potential buyers in-store with high brightness and contrast levels. Be sure to avoid Dynamic or Vivid modes and turn TVs to Movie, Cinema or Standard mode to use less energy.

Sell, Recycle or Donate Old Gadgets

With the regular release of next generation mobile phones, MP3 players, laptops, and cameras most people accumulate gadgets they no longer need. One option is to sell the gadgets on sites like Craigslist.org or Gazelle.com. Best Buy also has a trade-in program online and in-store where you can hand over old gaming systems, televisions, musical instruments in exchange for a gift card.

Another option is to donate old mobile devices to Cell Phones For Soldiers, a non-profit organization that sells, refurbishes or recycles mobile phones and in turn provides pre-paid calling cards to military men and women overseas.

Install Energy Saving Devices That Pay for Themselves

Smart power strips and intelligent surge protectors can be purchased for under $ 30. These devices reduce the amount of standby energy consumed by televisions, computers and other consumer electronics that are plugged in 24/7. To monitor the amount of power each device consumes, invest in a Kill-a-Watt electricity monitor for under $ 20. The device determines how much power consumer electronics use and some premium models even calculate what an appliance costs to run.

These simple energy saving tips can not only put money back in your pocket, but they help the environment, said Yung Trang, President and Editor in Chief of TechBargains.com. As consumers devote more of their time and money to electronics, energy consumption becomes more of an issue. By taking a few minutes we can each do our part to painlessly and profitably start our own green initiatives at home.

Helpful resources for consumers can be found on Techbargains.coms YouTube channel which focuses on product reviews, product deals, gadget giveaways and seasonal shopping tips.

(PRWEB) April 19, 2012

Although the music industry has languished from sluggish sales over the last half decade, consumer trends have demonstrated that holiday music is immune to the recession year after year, according to a report in Htrnews.

About one-fifth of music sales, including Christmas music, takes place in the last six weeks of the year. In 2010, that totaled more than 71 million albums during the season, the news source said.

“Every year there’s that great new holiday album people want to make sure they’ve got it in their house,” said Dave Bakula, vice president, analytics entertainment for Nielsen, as quoted by Htrnews. “But it never really matters if there’s any better release one year or another; the demand is there every year. Whether it’s gift-giving or the need to have the music of the season on, it seems to be more resilient than the music industry as a whole.”

For established artists, one holiday album gives them a chance to re-enter the album sales charts every year, while newer performers have an opportunity for greater exposure.

If the number of tech reviews in the media during the holidays is any indication, smartphones and other devices to store and play music are also popular during this time of year.

All smartphones are now equipped with music players and capable of hosting music-downloading apps, according to a recent article published in Wired.

People looking for gift ideas for their beloved music fanatics in their lives can visit Serenity Living Stores to find both portable electronics and accessories. The online retailer sells different lines of smartphone cases, available for several brands of devices in a variety of chic and sharp colors.

Technology penalty: Texas mom Lori David was banned from using the internet and text messages rather than send her to prison after sending nude photographs of herself to her friend’s 16-year-old son

David had pleaded guilty to sending nude photos of herself to a classmate of her 16-year-old son she had met while volunteering at their high school school in Katy, Texas.

One photo showed her topless while in another she kneeled naked on a bed in what was described in court as a ‘lewd’ position.

Court documents revealed that David also knew the boy because she was a ‘jogging buddy’ of his mum.

The pair exchanged messages on Facebook before David sent the teen the two racy photos which were discovered by his parents.

David was arrested two weeks after sexting the teen in November of 2010.
The mother of two trembled and wept in court after pleading guilty to a single charge of solicitation of a minor.

She had faced up to ten years in jail but the judge sentenced her to five years probation with a stipulation that her internet access be restricted to work use.

David was also told she cannot send any text messages except to immediate family members and is not allowed to have any children at her home unless they are family.

Another condition imposed by the judge banned David from visiting her son’s school except to attend her son’s graduation.

She was also placed on the sex offenders register for 15 years and was told if she breaks any of the terms of the probation will be jailed.

‘You know you have a problem,’ the judge told David.

‘I do not want you at that school for anything except your son’s graduation.’

David did not speak at the court hearing but her lawyer Michael Nassif read out a statement.

‘Good people make bad decisions. I’m living my bad decision in front of you. Every action has a consequence and I’m taking responsibility for my actions,’ Nassif said.

Prosecutor John Wakefield said after the case that the judge’s conditions gave David a chance of a new life.

‘The question in this case is, the victim is a 16-year-old, and she is a 38-year-old mom. So is prison the right call for her? Or give her a chance to prove she’s worthy of being back in society,’ Wakefield said.

A 23-year-old woman has been accused of sexually assaulting a boy, 13, in his bedroom and exposing herself to him.

Carissa Angel, from Port St Lucie, Florida, was arrested on Monday after the boy’s mother found her having sex with her son in the bedroom of his Pembroke Pines apartment.

Carissa Rangel has been charged with lewd or lascivious battery, three counts of lewd or lascivious molestation and three counts of lewd or lascivious conduct

According to police, Rangel knew the family but it is unclear how. The teen told investigators that on Sunday night, the 23-year-old took him outside of the apartment where she molested and kissed him.

He said she then took him behind the building and exposed herself to him while he urinated on the ground.

It was after this she took him to his bedroom and allegedly sexually assaulted him.

The boy’s mother – neither of whom have been named – heard groaning coming from the bedroom around 1am and walked in to see Rangel having sex with her son.

When she confronted her, the woman allegedly told the mother she was ‘getting it done right’.

When police arrived, Rangel declined to be interviewed by them. The boy told them he had sex with the 23-year-old on two previous occasions, according to the Orlando Sentinel.

She was charged with lewd or lascivious battery, three counts of lewd or lascivious molestation and three counts of lewd or lascivious conduct.

Rangel was also charged with violating probation stemming from a battery case. Details of that case were not available late Tuesday.
