Whose Voice Makes You Weak in the Knees?
Almost all of you agree that a man with a sexy voice is a huge plus when it comes to attraction — but let's be honest, nothing beats a man with good looks and a sultry sound!
Most men in Hollywood have a distinctive, recognizable voice, so tell me, whose spoken word makes you weak in the knees?

Getting Noisy in the Bedroom
A recent post on About.com's Sexuality Blog considers the moans we make when we're getting it on. The post specifically recalls a study completed by Dr. Roy Levin, a sexologist, who determined that there were many reasons to make noise while in the throws of passion.

The Future Is Now: i-Beam's Bubble Barrier Comes to Life
I was cleaning up my iPhoto library the other day and came across a photo I took at E3 that features a familiar-looking contraption. The bubble on the right isolates sound so you can hear music (or in this case, games) in a noisy room. Look familiar?
Website of the Day: CitySounds
I'm always on the lookout for new music, and although Pandora does a pretty good job of "getting" my tastes and introducing me to new artists, sometimes I feel like I really just need to branch out and expand my musical horizons. What a better way to do that than to check out the most popular tunes from around the globe?
That's exactly what you get with CitySounds.fm — a world tour of music right at your desk.
The New Cube Farm: I-Beam's Bubble Sound Barrier
Here at Sugar HQ, we don't have the typical cube farm that you'd find in other office buildings, but we do get a lot of noise. Not only from the traffic in downtown San Francisco, but from the various street musicians that play outside. So these Bubble Sound Barriers from design firm I-Beam — which provide not only a barrier from outside noise, but keep your music inside your own parameter — would be really, really awesome.
Sound Waveform Bracelet: Love It or Leave It?
Technically, the Sound Waveform Bracelet by the Sound Advice Project (also part of artist David Bizer's thesis) is intended for use by parents imparting advice to their teens about drug use. But the bracelet has such a cool concept — you record any message on the website, and the soundwaves from the words become the bead design on the bracelet — that it could be awesome for anyone.
Friendship bracelets that "say" how much they mean to you or bracelets for significant others that say a sweet love message — it would be a totally geeky way to impart some feeling to a piece of jewelry.
Product of the Day: The Sound Princess Bathroom "Noise" Blocker
I'm not big on fart humor, but when a product like this comes along, I gotta share it with you guys. The Sound Princess is installed in public restrooms in Japan to allow dainty women to mask unpleasant sounds that may result from, uh, doing what comes naturally. Press a button and you hear--the sound of a flushing toilet.
Geek Gear: Relaxation Sound Chair
I adore reading about luxury gadgets I would never purchase - from $20,000 gold and diamond encrusted iPod shuffles to $800 Titanium iPod Nano Cases. What I don't understand are semi-luxury items (as in items you don't really need, but might want) that aren't even all that luxurious.
The Relaxation Sound Chair from Brookstone aims to be one of those highly-coveted gamer and music enthusiast items, yet its function is lacking.
Uber Chic Bose Stereo: Please Let It Be Real!
Sometimes I get a slightly panicked and rushed "oh-my-gosh" feeling in my stomach when I find something I really love, and aren't sure where (or how) to get my gadget loving paws on it. You know the feeling, right? I got that exact feeling when I came across this Bose Stereo on Leah Fabish's Coroflot Portfolio, and I'm hoping against all hope that this sweet specimen is real, and someone out there will send it to me asap!
