Article Abstract:

Sophisticated surveillance gadgets accessible to the security-conscious consumer are quite easily accessible today. The booming demand for state-of-the-art personal spy equipment and their deterrents are likely being driven by a desire for harmless thrill seeking or a wish to indulge international spy fantasies rather than by actual threats to physical safety. Gadgets include infrared-enhanced night goggles with near-daylight vision capabilities, an anti-phone-and-room-bug sweeper, hidden clock cameras and video sunglasses.

Article Abstract:

SimCity 3000, the urban planning computer game, has increased graphic details from its predecessor the 2000 while reducing the tediousness of playing the game. 400 buildings can be found in the game, which includes some famous buildings such as the Bank of China Tower and the Dome of the Rock. The details have been worked out on Photoshop and 3D Studio Max software. While the game has become more realistic, it cannot faithfully duplicate the workings of a real city.
