Sony Ends Q3 2015 Profitable Thanks to PlayStation





















The company's PlayStation and image sensor divisions are to thank for the $278 million (JPY 33.6 billion) profit. Overall revenue for the quarter is down 0.5% over a year ago to $15.8 billion, partly because of the strong dollar. Operating profit came in at $733 million.

Sony Mobile revenue is also down by 15% from over a year ago reaching $231 for the quarter. Sony surely remembers Q3 2014's loss of $1.58 billion, so this quarter's $172 million isn't as bad. The company explains the low smartphone sales with its "strategic decision not to pursue scale in order to improve profitability."

The game and network services division, from which the PlayStation 4 is part of, rose 16.5% year-over-year and account to $3 billion in revenue and $199 million profit. The company's image sensor division continues to be one of the company's most important parts with $215 million profit on $1.5 billion revenue.

Few Ways To Avoid Getting Sick
















Staying healthy and high spirited isn't that difficult. Here are a few surprising and simple ways to avoid getting unhealthy

Go for sauna

This time, instead of the usual manicure and pedicure, go for sauna. Saunas are not only a way to detox but they also help you get over a cold quicker by opening your sinus passages and helping you breathe easily. Moreover, they can also reduce the occurrence of colds.

Plug in a humidifier

Dry air is a downer and in many cases an ideal environment for a virus to thrive. To combat an arid environment or an illness, plug in a humidifier and you'll certainly feel better.

Get kissing

While you may not wish to lock lips with your loved one when he/she has cold, but do not miss any opportunity to pucker up when you both are healthy. When you and your partner swap spit, you're exposing yourself to each other's germs, which helps strengthen your immunity.

Listen to some tunes

The benefits of music are beyond your imagination. It reduces stress, improves memory and also boosts immunity. So if you just considered music as sound, it's time you change your opinion and start listening to music that really moves you.

Gargle

Your mother or grandmother must have surely advised you to gargle with salt water to ease the pain of a sore throat sometime or the other, but yes, it works. Studies say that gargling with tap water a few times a day keeps cold miles away.

It really was an important part of my life and always will be. She’s a free spirit. I think she’ll always surprise people with what she does, but she’s not a malicious person in any way. She’s a young girl who wants to do what she wants to do."

5 Best Beauty Benefits Of Tea














If you have always loved sipping on that cup of chai, here's more reason to love tea, which is rich in antioxidants - it can help you get gorgeous. Here are some of the ways tea benefits you...

Is a great moisturiser: Dry skin?

Just spray cold, green tea on the face. This is a great refresher and removes impurities. It also gives a nice glow to the skin.

Busts under eye puffiness:

Don't throw out the used teabag. A quick and easy home remedy is to put the used bag in the fridge to cool it and then place it under the eyes. Tea has caffeine, which aids in shrinking blood vessels under the eyes and thus reduces puffiness and dark circles.

Gives a sheen and bounce to hair:

Want a great mane? Rinse out your hair using black tea or green tea. While black tea can reduce breakage, green tea is said to stimulate hair growth. Just pour the cooled tea on hair and leave it on for ten minutes. Shampoo and condition your hair after that.

Eliminates foot odour:

Suffering from smelly feet? Don't just use a deo on them; instead soak your feet in a solution that made of boiled black tea. Tea is anti-bacterial and stops the 'foot sweat' thus reducing the smell. It also closes the pores of the feet.

Soothes the skin post shaving:

Do your legs turn red and itchy after a shave? Press a cool, black tea bag on the affected area, it calms the skin.

Apple Releases New Siri Ads Starring Jamie Foxx & Bill Hader



Apple Pay Coming To Canada & Australia This Year

Apple's mobile payments service Pay will be rolled out in Canada and Australia by the end of the ongoing year, and will be expanded to countries like Hong Kong, Singapore, and Spain early next year.

This was revealed by CEO Tim Cook during the Cupertino-based company's fourth-quarter earnings call yesterday, saying that Apple wants to expand the service to more "key global markets." It's worth mentioning that the service will initially only be available to the owners of American Express cards.

Apple Pay is currently only available in the company's home country of US and the UK, where it was launched back in October and this July, respectively. There is, however, no official confirmation on how many users are currently using the mobile payments service.

HTC RE On Sale For $50













HTC is offering a rather hefty discount on the little camera, bringing the price down to $50. If you ever considered purchasing one then this should be a good enough reason for you to make the jump. But if it didn't quite convince you the first time around, it's unlikely to change your mind now.

It has no display and not much of an interface. You interact with the couple of buttons on the device, one of them being the large shutter button on top. The RE is meant for spontaneous shots and not really for those who like to compose and setup their shots before capturing.

The camera pairs with your phone to transfer images and you can use your phone as a viewfinder at a pinch but it would just be easier to shoot with your phone, not to mention the RE image quality isn't exactly great. If all of that seems good to you somehow, then it's available at the lowest price so far.

Hair Tattoos Are The Newest Rage!


























After Kylie Jenner was recently snapped donning a gold hair tattoo, temporary tattoos in shades of gold and silver, known as flash tattoos, are all the rage this festive season. Fashion mavens have discovered a new trend to jazz up their locks for the winter months ahead.

Curly-haired girls be advised, the tattoo application process involves water application to your mane, so this trend may be limited to those with looser waves or straight hair. The flash tattoo for your tresses seems to be an upgrade to the popular hair trend circa 2011, where superstars like Beyonce had small metallic strips dangling from their hair.

These tinsel hair extensions came in colours of gold, silver, bronze, and bright shades of pink, blue and orange.
