Zapak Corporate Gamer Winners Announced

As most of you already (so did not) know, Zapak’s been hosting a Corporate Gaming Championship since the past couple of weeks and today were the finals held at Hard Rock Café, Mumbai. Unlike most tournaments that concentrate solely on shooters and racers, casual games such as Zuma, Bejeweled 2 and Heavy Weapon were present here as well.

Unfortunately for Zapak the turnout definitely wasn’t what they expected and for some reason, the comperes felt the need to compensate for the lack of crowd (and not to mention enthusiasm) by screaming their lungs out every few seconds giving both Nik and me a severe headache (which is a feat in itself since both of us have a high tolerance for pain).

Either way, here’s the list of winners in case anyone’s interested:

• Zuma: Deenu Abhishek, Bangalore
• Bejeweled Deluxe: Deenu Abhishek, Bangalore
• Heavy Weapon: Anshul Maheshwary, Delhi
• FIFA ‘07: Surendra Singh, Bangalore
• NFS – Most Wanted: Jimmy, Mumbai
• Counter Strike: Live2Own, Mumbai

X5 HairLaser

I remember seeing this ad in a newspaper that claimed: “Now there is an easy answer. Laser Hair Removal!” It showed a pretty woman with great legs, and I can only assume that her bikini wax was somehow done with lasers. Well, I have no idea how lasers can remove hair, but apparently they can restore hair. This is exactly what the X5 HairLaser is designed to do. This little gadget is designed to fit in your hand like a tiny scalp massager, and can blast “15 distinct points of coherent laser light directly to your scalp at the optimum power and wavelength”.

Somehow, all these lasers are supposed to promote hair growth. However, it doesn’t work all at once, but it is a treatment that requires 10-15 minutes, three times a week. Anyone know if that is better than Rogaine’s program?To me, this item seems like snake oil, but I have to admit that I don’t know a dang about hair restoration, and I’m not at the stage where I really need it. However, given a few more decades, and I may discover how much hair I can lose in my old age. Perhaps this technology will have greatly improved by the time I do need it.

But if you need this now, the X5 HairLaser is available for about $300, and it has a six-month return policy.Source
