In terms of fashion, the AyeGear J25 is not an incredibly stylish jacket -- but it's not ugly either. As a 20-something who typically wears skinny jeans and a slim v-neck crew shirt, I found the jacket to be baggier than ones I normally wear. To be fair, however, the jacket serves a specific purpose that inherently prevents it from being more of a formfitting jacket that I might purchase from a fashion retailer like H&M.
It also looks much nicer as a vest, in my opinion, so give it a go without the sleeves and hood when possible or consider the cheaper V26 Vest instead. One knock against the AyeGear J25 is its price: £149.99, which is $198.75 in the U.S. or around $260 in Canada and Australia based on current exchange rates -- and that's after the British pound's recent post-Brexit vote decline. The jacket is certainly convenient, but whether it is worth dropping two bills on is debatable. As is often the case, a better deal can be found on Amazon, where the jacket sells for between $149.99 and $190. Prices vary depending on the size selected.
AyeGear's J25 Jacket is a convenient, multipurpose jacket that fills a niche, particularly for the outdoorsman or frequent flyers, but its drawbacks of being somewhat heavy and expensive should be duly considered. For most people, it may be wiser to save your money and stick with a traditional jacket and backpack combo. The J25 Jacket can be purchased on AyeGear's website (~$198) or Amazon ($149.99-$190) in small, medium, large, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, or 5XL.

San Jose resident Kevin Nguyen will appear in court next Monday for a second arraignment, after a judge determined there was enough evidence to proceed with a trial in the murder of 20-year-old Milpitas resident Danica Bascos.On July 12, Superior Court Judge Shelyna V. Brown handed down a ruling that Nguyen, accused of killing his ex-girlfriend in her bedroom last fall, should be held to answer for her slaying, after a two-day preliminary hearing in June.
At that hearing, the judge asserted that based on the evidence, surveillance video and witness testimony presented there was sufficient probable cause for count one, and the defendant is guilty thereof. Brown also said she found there was sufficient evidence of guilt against Nguyen for the prior count of battery against Bascos as well as a count of battery against Bascos' then boyfriend John Souza.The judge also noted surveillance video from the day last September -- when Nguyen allegedly committed battery against Bascos and Souza -- where the defendant can be seen purchasing the knife, mask and gloves that Milpitas police later found at his residence.
Brown further referenced evidence presented by Deputy District Attorney Kalila Spain, during the preliminary hearing that took place on June 16 and June 27, that included the emotional testimony of Danica Basco's father about finding his only child's body after she was murdered on Oct. 5, 2016. It also included testimony from Milpitas police Detective Abbie Serrano, who testified Nguyen had Googled how to kill a person and the best way to dispose of a body before he went to the home of his ex-girlfriend with the intention of murdering her.Furthermore, Serrano said Nguyen admitted to using a black-handled knife he'd purchased from a Lucky Supermarket -- a weapon that was recovered from his bedroom -- to stab Bascos in her left breast, her chest and repeatedly in her back inside her Manzano Street home, near Milpitas High School. Nguyen also told the detective that Bascos pled for her life, but he continued to stab her.
After he stabbed her he checked to see if she had a pulse, and she did, he checked again and then she didn't, Serrano told the court on June 27.The detective said Nguyen admitted to killing Bascos because she lied about cheating on him, and didn't want to stay in a relationship with him. Nguyen also said he wore gloves so he wouldn't leave fingerprints.He told me 'the demons' in his head told him to kill her, I asked him if demons had talked to him when he purchased the gloves, mask or knife, he said 'no' ...he said he was mad and he identified himself as a jealous person, Serrano told the court.She also testified that Nguyen had taken Bascos' laptop, cell phone, purse, and car keys, and had told her he intended to use her phone to lure her boyfriend Souza and then shoot him in the head.Serrano confirmed on June 27 that she'd been told Nguyen had not graduated from high school, did not have a GED, could not hold a steady job, did not have a driver's license, did have a developmental disability, does not live independently and could not use household appliances without issues. Nguyen was also being seen at San Andreas Regional Center, which provides case management and services to people with intellectual or developmental disabilities, at the time of the murder, according to the defense.
On Friday, Nguyen's public defender Kelley Kulick said by email, On Monday, July 25 I anticipate a plea of 'not guilty' will be entered and the matter will be set for trial. I do not disagree with the court's finding of probable cause at the preliminary hearing.The court hearing is scheduled to convene at 1:30 p.m. July 25 at San Jose Hall of Justice for the second arraignment, during which time Nguyen is expected to enter a plea and the case will be set for trial.Gigabyte has spent the past few years trying to catch up to Razer and its flagship gaming laptop, the Blade. Razer practically invented the thin-and-light gaming laptop category with the Blade in 2013, and since then it’s slowly evolved into a great laptop for both productivity and gaming.More recently, gaming laptop manufacturers have followed Razer’s lead, trying to position their computers as productivity devices that double as weekend gaming rigs. Gigabyte continues the tradition with the new Aero 14 laptop, which it says can get 10 hours of battery life in a productivity mode that switches over to Intel’s integrated graphics during less intensive activity.
The laptop weighs in at just under 4.2 pounds with a thickness of 19.9mm, which stacks up pretty well with the Razer Blade which weighs in at 4.25 pounds with a 17.8mm closed height.Gigabyte also included a few features for power users, like the HDMI 2.0 port which lets you connect the laptop to an external monitor and use the full 4K resolution. Software add-ons like the Fan Tweak let you adjust the fan speed depending on the type of activity you’re working on. Finally, the macro keys along the side of the keyboard are customizable and can change color with the Macro Hub included software.Lenovo India on Wednesday launched the Ideapad 110 budget laptop, targeted at the first-time personal computer (PC) buyers in India.

I just installed Windows 10 on my laptop, but I'm having a problem with the screen fading so dark I can hardly see it. I've tried adjusting the screen brightness manually on the laptop by pressing the FN (function) key + up arrow key, but the screen brightness won't say - it keeps going dark automatically on its own. The screen goes dim whether or not I have the laptop plugged into the power outlet, or if it's running on battery. It also seems to happen immediately as soon as I login to Windows. I have tried changing the Power Settings (via Control Panel) so that the adaptive brightness is turned off, but that doesn't seem to make any difference. Can you help?
