PC-to-Mac USB file-transfer cables and migration utilities have been out for a while, but Belkin's out today with a new take on the idea it says makes the transition "as seamless as possible." We're guessing that has more to do with the Switch-to-Mac Cable's bundled software than the dongle itself -- Belkin's custom Migration Assistant (not the OS X assistant) automatically transfers your media, f

Ever noticed a peculiar property of an electrical switch! It is always made like this: Always when you click ON, the circuit gets completed and the electricity flows. Imagine if it was the other way round i.e. when you put the switch to off position, it inserts an insulator in the circuit and the circuit breaks. In that case, if a switch gets old, imagine switching off and then also the fan keeps

Frank Geddes asks: I am reinstalling two singer baseboard heaters. How high above the vinyl should they be hung on the wall? In other words, how much space, if any, should be between the vinyl floor and the bottom of the box? Answer: Electric baseboard heaters are rated to sit directly on the floor; even on carpet. [...]

One of the nation’s top offensive lineman is choosing to be a Spartan over a Hawkeye.  Iowa’s top high school player and four-star recruit David Barrent has decommited from Iowa and given a verbal commitment to Michigan State.  The 6-foot-8, 290-pound Barrent is rated the seventh-best tackle in the country and is the Spartans’ 14th [...]

A pair of contacts is said to be 'closed' when there is no space between them, allowing electricity to flow from one to the other. When the contacts are separated by an insulating air gap, an air space, they are said to be 'open', and no electricity can flow at typical voltages.Switches can be and are classified according to the arrangement of their contacts in electronics fields— but electricia

The latest explosion in the Autism Knowledge Revolution is the much ballyhoo'd (Scientific American, Washington Post, Times Online, TIME etc.) study in the current issue of Science.

When it comes to purchasing alcoholic bevvies in our home province, there is only one game in town and that is the retail equivalent of Dodge Ball, the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO). When Ontarians speak of going to "The Beer Store", or "The Liquor Store" it is not due to some inherent Canadian fondness for speaking in generalities, but an actual trademark reflecting the incredible height

A biased switch is one containing a spring that returns the actuator to a certain position. The "on-off" notation can be modified by placing parentheses around all positions other than the resting position. For example, an (on)-off-(on) switch can be switched on by moving the actuator in either direction away from the centre, but returns to the central off position when the actuator is r

"After careful consideration, I have reached the conclusion that Barack Obama can best bring about the change that our country so desperately wants and needs. Sen. Obama has lived the American dream. He embodies the American ideals of hope, optimism, and the ability to take on tough challenges in order to solve difficult problems. In addition, I believe that he will work to restore America's im

A switch can be constructed with any mechanism bringing two conductors into contact with each other in a controlled manner. This can be as simple as allowing two copper wires to touch each other by the motion of a lever, or by directly pushing two metal strips into contact. However, a good switch design must be rugged and reliable, and avoid presenting the operator with the possibility of electric shock. Therefore, industrial switch designs are rarely this crude. The conductive parts in a switch used to make and break the electrical connection are called contacts. Contacts are typically made of silver or silver-cadmium alloy, whose conductive properties are not significantly compromised by surface corrosion or oxidation. Gold contacts exhibit the best corrosion resistance, but are l

This starts off with an acoustic guitar, but it is very easy to picture this song being played in an arena with 8,000 kids singing along. Play it loud and wake up with a smile, despite the lyrical content. It’s the energy that feels exciting. “We’d all like to know what our lives have yet to show, but there’s one place we can go and that’s minds. We’d all like to be with who our eyes have yet to see, but there’s no one fooling me cause that’s a lie.” Sounds real good here, would sound even better in the arena with loads of kids singing along. Good job! Switches

Surprisingly, it's not Ron Paul who's switched parties. Firstread is reporting that Mike Gravel has changed his party registration from Democratic to Libertarian and plans to continue his longshot campaign by pursuing the Libertarian Party's nomination.

If you like the idea of having two separate numbers on which people can contact you (perhaps one for business use and one for personal use) but would rather not lug two cell phones around with you – by way of a side note, I once knew someone who carried five separate mobile phones around with him (never quite worked out why, and I don’t think he did either) – then this WND Duo Atom could be a clever altogether more convenient solution in being able to switch effortlessly between two Sim cards, and therefore two numbers, with a mere flip.

Hubs====The term is sometimes used to refer to any piece of network equipmentthat connects PCs together, but it actually refers to a multi-portrepeater. This type of device simply passes on (repeats) all theinformation it receives, so that all devices connected to its portsreceive that information.Hubs repeat everything they receive and can be used to extend thenetwork. However, this can result in a lot of unnecessary trafficbeing sent to all devices on the network. Hubs pass on traffic to thenetwork regardless of the intended destination; the PCs to which thepackets are sent use the address information in each packet to workout which packets are meant for them. In a small network repeating isnot a problem but for a larger, more heavily used network, anotherpiece of networking equipment (such as a switch) may be required tohelp reduce the amount of unnecessary traffic being generatedSwitches=======Switches control the flow of network traffic based on the addressinformation in each pack

Spyker switches gears, brands its own electronics: "Spyker certainly won't go down as the first auto maker to dabble in consumer electronics, but it is making the leap in a big way. Rolling out, er, branding no fewer than three mobiles, five PMPs, and two USB flash drives, Spyker owners / fans now have lots of accessories to spend their wages on that are completely unrelated to their vehicle. Among the devices now available is a four-inch PMP with a rather antiquated design scheme, support for a slew of file formats, a 1.3-megapixel camera, FM tuner, AV input, and a promised boost of 10-horsepower (ahem) for €249 ($348).

Divided into four parts, LAN Switch Security provides you with steps you can take to ensure the integrity of both voice and data traffic traveling over Layer 2 devices. Part I covers vulnerabilities in Layer 2 protocols and how to configure switches to prevent attacks against those vulnerabilities. Part II addresses denial-of-service (DoS) attacks on an Ethernet switch and shows how those attacks can be mitigated. Part III shows how a switch can actually augment the security of a network through the utilization of wirespeed access control list (ACL) processing and IEEE 802.1x for user authentication and authorization. Part IV examines future developments from the LinkSec working group at the IEEE. For all parts, most of the content is vendor independent and is useful for all network architects deploying Ethernet switches. (more…) Bookmark to:

Switches - Step Kids In Love"I never felt your daddy's fist before"Kicking off UK Indie week is the only band out of my five picks that has actually released their debut album already. I first wrote about Switches and their non-album track No Hero a few months ago, and was impressed with their glam rock approach to indie music. Their album (Heart Turned To D.E.A.D.), I'm pleased to say, is a hodgepodge of different styles, incorporating power rock, glam, funk and 70's guitar pop. Step Kids In Love was my instant favorite of the new songs. It has a bit of a Scissor Sisters feel to it, a chugging pace not unlike that band's hit Laura. Actually, I think it's even more over-the-top (More over-the-top than Scissor Sisters? I know...) and of course sinfully catchy. On the downside, I've been a bit upset by Switches' lackluster chart success in the UK so far, and I hope that changes soon, because I can see them appealing to a wide audience with their music.Switches - Step Kids In Love

'Exercise pill' switches on gene that tells cells to burn fat, Makes normal mice resistant to weight gain on high-fat diet. Genomic regions, transcripts, and productsBy giving ordinary adult mice a drug - a synthetic designed to mimic fat - Salk Institute scientist Dr. Ronald M. Evans is now able to chemically switch on PPAR-d,the master regulator that controls the ability of cells to burn fat. Genomic contextEven when the mice are not active, turning on the chemical switch activates the same fat-burning process that occurs during exercise.The resulting shift in energy balance (calories in, calories burned) makes the mice resistant to weight gain on a high fat diet.

While we've been dutifully voting and then celebrating, our attention has wandered away from the rest of the world. While we've been dreaming of a 'new direction' for Iraq - a 'war' that should never have even begun - we've missed the massacres that are continuing in Palestine and Israel. Going house to house and ordering the men to the center of towns for questioning? You have got to be kidding me. A certain dictator's legacy does live on , and in ways I'm sure he never anticipated. Abba, take this bitter cup from those who are suffering to drink it, no matter their birthright, ethnicity, gender or age. Speaking of a 'fresh perspective' for Iraq, do we really believe that sacking Rumsfeld is going to change anything? I mean, look, his replacement is still Dubya's towel boy. And Dubya still believes that sending troops into a stable (if undemocratic and oppressive) nation and making it an unstable, ethnically and religously divided attempt at a republic was a wis
