Microgaming could win you Millions
One of the latest games from the successful gambling company Microgaming comes in the form of Mermaid Millions, a soothing underwater adventure to find the Sea King and his beautiful Mermaid daughter. Five reels and fifteen pay lines, coin sizes ranging from $0.01 to $1 with 1-5 coins per pay reel, add up to a maximum bet of $75, meaning that this isn't a serious betting machine – more like entertainment with a gambling kick. However, payouts can get pretty big, with several ways to acquire multipliers and opportunities for bonus games.
As well as the standard ten, jack, queen, king and ace cards – which all have jewels, octopi and other sea memorabilia wrapped around them - the young mermaid is the scatter card, and king Neptune operates as a wild card which can be swapped out for any other card (except the mermaid, of course). Other cards are a magical pearl, treasure box, treasure chest and sea horse. Five Neptune symbols in one spin triggers a jackpot of a potential $37,5000, and from two to five mermaid cards gets you 4x, 50x and 400x your original bet.
The Treasure Bonus symbols sets another Bonus game in motion which plays as a “Pick Until Pop”, where the player keeps picking sunken containers with win values in each until they get the “pop”. The number of treasure chest symbols in your spin defines the number of selections you get, starting from three. As another bonus, three to five scatters in one spin gets you a reward of ten free spins with a 3x multiplayer – there's no limit to how many times you can get this reward.
The whole style of the game is really what sets it above over slot games. The www.MermaidMillions.net slots game has cute graphics in calming blue underwater tones and adorable pictures around the screen. All of the sounds are fully customisable, allowing you to listen to the soothing sounds of the ocean, or turn them on and listen to just the rolling machine while you keep your own lucky soundtrack going.
There are a lot of slot games out at the moment, with Microgaming being at the forefront of the technology. Mermaid Millions is a great low stress game, with small bets but potentially pretty big winnings, and can be played on smart phones and tablets as well as computers so you're never far away from an underwater opportunity to win a few grand!

Sound without speakers; Kyocera is changing how we hear each other
What if a phone didn’t need a speaker to relay a phone conversation to you? Sounds crazy, maybe. We’ve been utilizing speakers (almost exclusively) since Alexander Graham Bell (or Innocenzo Manzetti, depending on how you look at it) invented the telephone, so not having one seems far fetched...

NSA 'secret backdoor' paved way to U.S. phone, e-mail snooping

A report in the Guardian on Friday quoted Sen. Ron Wyden, an Oregon Democrat who serves on the Senate Intelligence Committee, as saying the secret rule offers a loophole allowing "warrantless searches for the phone calls or emails of law-abiding Americans..."
