This number has been calling some Irish folk and its one to avoid,it will either call you and hang up and for some they will ring back,this is a premium number and will just eat your credit,if you see this number just ignore it and add to your block list if your device allows to do so,you can also request your provider to block the number,it seems to be originating in London which cross checks with Tellows number search..
Alternatively you can use apps to block numbers too which can be got from the respective app stores..
These particular calls are not really new but its important to keep up with the numbers and pass on the info,there is people that are vulnerable and being a UK number anyone with relatives or friends,perhaps even work could easily fall for it…This number is still active and when you call it you get some really crappy music to listen to..
Fancy a pair of new earbuds that charge via your smartphone well here is something new for you to think of and Suzanne Campbell tells us more about this new idea..
Pugz is a fresh Kickstarter project offering the world’s first wireless earbuds that can be charged through your phone. Unlike other wireless earbud solutions on the market, Pugz enables you to listen and charge at the same time, allowing you to continue to use them even when they run out of batteries. To use, listeners simply need to place their phones next to them, requiring no annoying cords to connect the two.
The key technology behind Pugz earbuds is what is called “The Squircle”—a patent-pending self-guided magnetic connector that enables users to listen and charge simultaneously. This allows Pugz earbuds to be small and lightweight, unlike competing wireless earbuds. If your battery is low, simply “Squircle” your Pugz earbuds using a charging cable and charge via a computer (USB), AC-Adaptor (USB), Android (micro-USB), or iPhone (Lightning).
Pugz earbuds require only 3 percent of a smart phone’s battery capacity to fully charge, providing 4.5 hours of usage.
While being compact and lightweight, Pugz earbuds utilize powerful speakers and proprietary audio codec to deliver a rich sound to the listener.
With Pugz, individuals on their phone can: adjust volume, play/pause/skip tracks, start and end calls, and activate Siri or Google voice command.
Pugz is compatible with all devices that engage Bluetooth.

The worldwide known trainer manufacturer Adidas wants to take craftsmanship to the next level with its recently announced Futurecraft 3D their shoes LITERALLY “made-for-you”.
This Futurecraft 3D story is the first chapter on the Adidas Futurecraft Series:
” Futurecraft is our sandbox. It is how we challenge ourselves every day to explore the boundaries of our craft. Driving material and process innovation, bringing the familiar into the future. Marrying the qualities of handcrafting and prototyping with the limitless potential of new manufacturing technologies. Futurecraft is stripped back – fast, raw and real – it is our approach to design.” Paul Gaudio, Creative Director, Adidas
Futurecraft 3D is possible through an open source partnership with Materialise , a pioneer and leading specialist in 3D printing.
What we will have here is something I personally wish for every time I go in the venture of buying a pair of shoes.
Let’s imagine this: you’re going to the Adidas store to buy a new pair of shoes, you find the model you like but when asking the sales team about your size availability they tells you that they don’t have that size (something that happens almost every single time to me).
With Futurecraf 3D all you need to do is run briefly on a treadmill and instantly getting a 3D-printed running shoe (The Adidas 3D-printed midsole)
Creating a flexible, fully breathable carbon copy of the person’s own footprint, matching exact contours and pressure points, it will set the person up for the best running experience. Linked with existing data sourcing and “foot scan” technologies they can give everything you need.
Futurecraft 3D is a prototype and a statement of intent. We have used a one-of-its-kind combination of process and material in an entirely new way. Our 3D-printed midsole not only allows us to make a great running shoe, but also to use performance data to drive truly bespoke experiences, meeting the needs of any athlete. Eric Liedtke, Executive Board Member of adidas AG, responsible for Global Brands
In its 3D concept, Adidas provides the ultimate personalised experience for all athletes, creating a unique combination of material and process. The production breakthrough will take the running shoe standard to the next level, offering unprecedented individualised support, to enable athletes to perform at their best.
Of course you will surely ask “What if it rains?” or “What if I stepped on something unpleasant?” Remember this is just the prototype and as you’d expect upgrades sure will be made.
What do you think of this new idea of Adidas? Are you going to try one yourself if they make it to your local market?
