Samsung drops, and encourages you to do the same, its rugged and resilient W300/W350 camcorders at CES 2012

There are many camcorders out on the market today, and while most of them will easily shoot in HD and capture your adventurous youngster’s first step, sometimes you need something a little more resilient. Enter the Samsung W300/W350. The W300/350 are Samsung’s latest and most rugged range of camcorders.

Built to withstand virtually any onslaught, the W300 is water-proof up to five meters, can absorb a shock inducing fall from heights of up to two meters, and is even dust proof , perfect for all those sandy beach excursions.

The W300 can capture video in 1080/30p full HD video and even hosts an optional floating bumper in the W350 model so users can place it on water and capture images while it floating the camcorder on water.

But just because it tough doesn’t mean it’s any less efficient because the W300/W350 feature a BSI CMOS Sensor and F/2.2 Bright Lens which allow it to capture video in low-light environments and still output high image quality.

A home can be more than meets the eye. If you look behind a bookcase, under a trap door, or down an obscure staircase, there may be more property lurking.

From underground wine cellars to Batcave-like garages, homeowners are designing living spaces with plenty of concealed nooks and crannies to ensure a quick getaway -- or perhaps to simply take their home to the next level. Below are some of the more innovative hidden spaces from around the globe.

10 extravagant holiday light displays that even Tim Taylor would envy
best holiday light displays lighting festival

Everyone knows that there are two ways to truly embody the spirit of Christmas. First, spend tons of money on expensive electronic gifts so that everyone knows you're the cool uncle in the family. Second, erect a glorious light display that shoots your electric bill into the stratosphere, threatens to burn down your entire block, and prevents your next-door neighbors from sleeping for the entire month of December (that's what curtains are for, Steve!).

Unfortunately, we know that most people can't take three weeks off to construct a scale replica of the nativity scene covered in so many flashing bulbs that it looks like baby Jesus is breathing technicolor flames. Luckily, we traveled far and wide (on the internet) to find some of the world's most extravagant Christmas light displays, for your entertainment. These courageous souls braved icy weather, annoyed in-laws, and potential alien attacks to create enormous works of art that are likely to blind Santa's reindeer and send him straight into a snowdrift.
