My dad and I have never really gotten along and recently we have gotten a lot closer. I never get him anything for christmas except for something really small and a card.
This year I want to get him something very special. I have asked him to spend time with me and he's so busy with work and stressed because our family has some problems. Any ideas? I love him so much and I want to show him how much I care about him. Thanks<3
Answer
How about any of these to think about. You don't have to get any of them as a gift IF you don't want to, but it might give you ideas or something comes to mind.

What are the latest developments in Information Technology?

I am a curriculum officer and need to keep abreast of new developments /trends
Answer
As happens every year, Apple skipped CES in favor of this week's Macworld. But while the iPod has clearly dominated the market for MP3 players, that doesn't mean other consumer-electronics companies won't come out swinging in 2006. One of the sleeker players on display was Philips' GoGear Jukebox. The jet-black design, ornamented by glowing blue lights that streak up and down as users navigate their playlists, wins big points for aesthetics.
Yes, the new video iPod rules the roost, but Toshiba's Gigabeat S-Series PMC is also pretty cool for those who want a few more options, such as syncing up with Starz' new Vongo video-download service, which allows unlimited access to its catalog for a flat fee of $10 a month. Nice screen resolution and a sleek design also make this a compelling gadget. The player, expected to debut in March or April for about $300, will also work with subscription music services like Yahoo Music Unlimited, Rhapsody and Napster.
The Microsoft booth was home to a slew of new Windows Mobile-enabled wireless devices. Judging from the traffic at the booth, gadgets like the iMate smartphone will widen the mobile landscape in 2006.
Check out this prototype ASUS laptop PC, which includes a handheld accessory for storing things like the owner's calendar, contacts and e-mail. The handheld device clips to the outside of the laptop and is always on to display vital information, thanks to the Windows SideShow capability in the upcoming Windows Vista operating system. For now, the device isn't wireless -- so forget about it doubling as a Blackberry or Treo. But it keeps cached e-mail in memory so that the user can access it without booting up the laptop. That alone makes it a nice feature.
Sometimes a gadget comes along that no one really needs but a good segment of the population will probably really want. That could describe Burton's Audex ski jacket, which has a Motorola cell phone and MP3 player sewn right into the fabric. Headphones and an almost invisible microphone on the collar allow the wearer to answer a phone call without digging around for a cell phone with clumsy gloved hands. Oh, and you'll be turning heads at Aspen. And isn't that what it's really all about?
Motorola's hot line of ROKR phones is about to get even cooler with Oakley's new "OROKR" sunglasses, which have a Bluetooth-enabled wireless headset built in. Models are expected to hit stores in the second quarter of 2006. Future's so bright, gotta wear ... oh, never mind.
Robots! What tech-fest gadget-geek bonanza would be complete without some good robot action? Representatives from Vex, which sells custom robot kits, were on hand to help CES attendees find their robotic mojo.
Car gadgets are always popular at CES. Bravo View Technology's Universal Passenger Visor LCD Screen VS-07 A is just that -- a flat screen that attaches to a car's window visor. Putting it on the driver's side is, of course, not recommended. Meanwhile, Iqua's crowbar-shaped Bluetooth headset wraps around the car's headrest for stylish hands-free communication. Prices range from $150 for the plastic model to $300 for a leather-clad version.
Sling Media showed off its Slingbox, which broadcasts live TV or any other media stream within the home to a mobile device. Just hook up the Slingbox to a cable set-top box, DVD player or stereo system, and it streams content to a laptop or Windows Mobile-enabled handheld. To demonstrate, a Sling Media employee watched live TV from his house using a Pocket PC handheld. The Slingbox costs about $300.
Eton's retro-style emergency radio looks pretty low-tech -- but there's a twist. The radio has a crankshaft that not only powers the radio but can even power up a cell phone! Just hook up your phone, crank the crank for a few minutes, and you're recharged. Sixty seconds of cranking delivers about an hour of radio time. The best part? These babies cost $40 to $60.
