As I paid this months bills I just stared at our cable/phone/internet bill and shook my head. When I switched over to our current carrier I did so in part because they offered a package deal that was going to be less than what I currently paid. It's interesting to me however that when the dust settled and I was the proud new owner of the package deal plus the rented converter boxes and installat

Image by lant_70Yesterday I decided to do something about switching my electricity supplier. I’d already decided to keep the prepayment meter because while I’m still struggling to pay off my debts, I’d rather not receive any more surprise bills and with the cost or energy rising quickly these days, that could well happen. It would have been nice if I’d been able to save a bit by switching

Circuit switching is the transmission technology in which a caller must first establish a connection to a callee before any communication is possible. During the connection establishment, resources are allocated between the caller and the callee. Generally, resources are frequency intervals in a Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) scheme or more recently time slots in a Time Division Multiplexin

Batch files are well known for their efficiency because of how multiple commands can be executed just through a simple click. Today theysaY will show you how to use batch files to quickly switch between IP addresses with the help of a command line program - NETSH.Most Windows users are aware of how to modify their network connection settings using the Local Area Connection icon in the task bar. However, if you frequently travel between networks, for example and at home and at work, the need to frequently key in different ip addresses might be quite a drag.With the help of Netsh, we can easily create two batch files that can toggle between two selected IP addresses with a single click.Step 1. Go to the network properties dialog box by clicking on the network icon in your taskbar and proceed

Diodes can perform switching and digital logic operations. Forward and reverse bias switch a diode between the low and high impedance states, respectively. Thus, it serves as a switch. Logic Diodes can perform digital logic functions: AND, and OR. Diode logic was used in early digital computers. It only finds limited application today. Sometimes it is convenient to fashion a single logic gate from a few diodes. Diode AND gate An AND gate is shown in Figure above. Logic gates have inputs and an output (Y) which is a function of the inputs. The inputs to the gate are high (logic 1), say 10 V, or low, 0 V (logic 0). In the figure, the logic levels are generated by switches. If a switch is up, the input is effectively high (1). If the switch is down, it connects a diode cath

More importantly to gain universal knowledge. He started acknowledge and wander about the creative purpose of existence. Then He joined himself in the infinite pursuit of knowledge and wisdom. One of the switching is the Messiah ability to cope on a different realm. From 1998 to 2007 the Messiah has reach the ultimate goal, which is becoming the LOGOS, and that is the switch, a physical mind bound to a psychic one.Biblical Ref: Micah 5:2b 1933 mark a monumental of a new beginning of God’s promise t

A switching-mode power supply is a power supply that provides the power supply function through low loss components such as capacitors, inductors, and transformers -- and the use of switches that are in one of two states, on or off. The advantage is that the switch dissipates very little power in either of these two states and power conversion can be accomplished with minimal power loss, which equates to high efficiency. The term switchmode was widely used for this type of power supply until Motorola, Inc., who used the trademark SWITCHMODE TM for products aimed at the switching-mode power supply market, started to enforce their trademark. Then more generic terms had to be found. I started using the term switching-mode power supply to avoid infringing on the trademark. Others used the term

Good weekend kiddies,Comodore64 back again to shed some light for any newly ordained Mac users that are carrying over from the M$ world. Since Mac is gaining a kind of strangle hold on the industry, I'm pretty sure there are a lot of guys like myself who have a PC for certain purposes and a Mac for others. In my case, it's a Powerbook. But not just any Powerbook, this is one of the last Powerbooks made with a PowerPC processor, right before Jobs and Co. made the switch to Intel processors. In retrospect, it was one of my better purchases in life. Worth every penny, and keeps on tickin. Unfortunately, a lot of you didn't stay on the PowerPC bandwagon, and jumped over (maybe not even by choice) to the new Intel Macs. From what I've seen and heard , they are quite the problematic little bugge

A packet-switched phone network is the alternative to circuit switching. It works like this: While you're talking, the other party is listening, which means that only half of the connection is in use at any given time. Based on that, we can surmise that we could cut the file in half, down to about 4.7 MB, for efficiency. Plus, a significant amount of the time in most conversations is dead air -- for seconds at a time, neither party is talking. If we could remove these silent intervals, the file would be even smaller. Then, instead of sending a continuous stream of bytes (both silent and noisy), what if we sent just the packets of noisy bytes when you created them? VoIP phone users can make calls using their Internet connection. Data networks do not use circuit switching. Your Internet co

Existing phone systems are driven by a very reliable but somewhat inefficient method for connecting calls called circuit switching. Circuit switching is a very basic concept that has been used by telephone networks for more than 100 years. When a call is made between two parties, the connection is maintained for the duration of the call. Because you're connecting two points in both directions, the connection is called a circuit. This is the foundation of the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Your browser does not support JavaScript or it is disabled. Click "Play" to see how circuit switching works. Here's how a typical telephone call works: You pick up the receiver and listen for a dial tone. This lets you know that you have a connection to the local office of y

I switched facial cleanser recently and the breakouts that resulted from that change is horrendous. In hindsight, I guess it was really a silly thing to do to switch cleansers since the old one was working well. I switched from Deep Cleansing Seaweed Cleanser from The Body Shop to the Deep Cleansing Wash from Simple. It always takes at least 4 weeks for my skin to adapt to the new cleanser and during that time, I have hell of a lot of trouble trying to keep the breakouts at bay. The Deep Cleansing Mask from Simple may have also had some contribution to the sudden massive breakouts since you know, deep cleansing masks brings out the impurities from the skin which in turn causes acne. For me at least, not sure about other people though.I also think that my diet lately has affected my skin. I

Full RSS Feeds on Fanaticspace.com I’m switching to full feeds for FanaticSpace’s RSS. I was using partial feeds because I had it set up to display on the static pages of the site. The script I was using to do that had no option to cut the feed posts short, so I had to cut the feed itself short. I switched over to Feedburner’s Buzz Boost option for displaying the feed on my static pages. It lets you choose how much of the feed you want to show. This lets me switch the blog feed back to a full service version. What does this mean? Well, hopefully it means that the feed will be more useful to you now.

As soon as I saw him I felt that old familiar rush of longing inside, like a big hole had just opened in me that only he could fill. Suddenly the rest of the world fell away and the only thing that mattered was how I was going to get him in my life. He was chatting with a group of his friends around one of the displays in the Computers section of the Museum. I was looking up at him through the skylight on between Computers and the Palaeontology section. As he laughed at some joke I couldn't hear (and probably wouldn't have even if there hadn't been twenty feet of slightly musty Museum air between us) his hair caught the light, and he appeared as a merry angel, limned in a golden halo of auburn hair and burnished gold. I felt that rush again, so strong that I felt I would black out, and just stared fixedly up at him. Luckily, the area I was in, the early mammals, was not very popular, because had there been anyone to see me there I would have looked like I'd been struck dumb. As I s

Yep, it is true, I just switched over to Geico and saved $330 per year on my car insurance. From what I have seen of Geico so far, they appear to be very promising. But, I don’t think the truth really comes out with insurance companies until you actually have a claim. I will let you know when/if that day comes. I was with AAA before and I was deliberately paying more than the average for the sake of convenience. I knew my agent well enough that I could email her or call her directly, rather than talking to a random agent, like I will likely have to do with Geico. I try to shop around once a year for insurance rates, and for whatever reason the price gap increased since last time I checked. For the same amount of coverage $330 was a bit too much to pay for my convenience. To add to that I haven’t had good experiences with AAA anyway, so I figured it was time to make the move.  If you haven’t shopped around in a while, you may be surprised&nbs

[edit Nov. 8, 2007] OK. Looks like the servers have adjusted. Business as usual. [/edit] Hell’s Handmaiden is switching servers. The site is going to LaughingSquid– more on them later– because the site owner is damned frustrated with his current host– more on them later as well. While the DNS servers are adjusting, I won’t be putting up any new posts as I don’t want to worry about synchronizing two databases. Things should be settled by about mid-week.

In Linux, if your mouse pointer disappears after switching users or after logging out and then back in, the problem is most likely caused by a bug with your video card driver. In most cases the mouse will still continue to work even though the mouse pointer is hidden or has disappeared completely from screen [...]

Sensor is the ultimate time sensitive CSS Switching script Sensor is a newly developed script by me, which let’s you create time-sensitive CSS files. Let’s say, you want one skin at the morning, one at the afternoon, and one in the night. This script let’s you do so. Unlike the other CSS switching scripts out there, this one uses JavaScript when the visitor user has enabled it, but if it don’t, it uses PHP configured after your desired time zone. Main Features Compatible with both JavaScript enabled browsers (live) and JavaScript disabled browsers (php set after your time zone) You can change the skin every hour automatically throughout the days 24 hours Easy to customize, could take some time though, depending on how many different schemes you’re using. No copyright notices required for using Lightweight & simple, easy to further develop Files to download Right click > Save file as… sensor.js config.php Installation Procedure Step 1: Uplo

According to Wikipedia: "A compact fluorescent lamp (CFL), also known as a compact fluorescent light bulb is a type of fluorescent lamp designed to replace an incandescent lamp. Many CFLs can fit in the existing incandescent light fixtures."An interesting article I read today mentioned the following facts:1. CFL's take up to 70%-80% less electricity compared to incandescent lamps.2. CFL's living span is up to 6 to 10 times that of an incandescent lamp.3. 11w of CFL power is equal to 60w of incandescent lamp power.4. Changing 10 lamps to CFL's will result in a yearly saving of up to 150$.5. Most of the power in an incandescent lamp is wasted on heat not light.6. California will soon ban the use of incandescent lamps. In Europe a similar law is currently drafted and in Australia the use of these lamps will be banned by 2010.A classic win win situation in my opinion.

Nearly a third of Texans living in areas served by deregulated electric companies still get their power from former monopolies under the price plans they had before markets opened to competition five... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

  Both the Arizona Cardinals and Baltimore Ravens appear on the verge of playing with fire, as both teams head coaches are talking about trying the dreaded platoon situation at quarterback.  Both teams situations are vastly different, but nevertheless, trying to play two quarterbacks in the National Football League is like waking a sleeping dog - it usually leads to disaster.  The Ravens are a team that has a window to win a championship, and tinkering with the offense now is a mistake.  In Arizona, trying to sit what is supposed to be your franchise QB might help short-term, but hurt you down the road.  Ravens head coach Brian Billick spoke Monday about playing backup Kyle Boller more late in games, sort of like a relief pitcher coming in for the save.  What impressed Billick was Boller moving the Ravens down the field for the game-winning field goal vs Arizona on Sunday and his poise.  Sure Boller has been impressive over his relief duties and even late last season, but there

This post is a response to Derek Siver’s post on the O’Reilly blog. Over two years ago, he decided to ditch a hundred thousand lines of messy PHP code in favor of rewriting his whole site with Ruby on Rails. Two years later, he isn’t even half done and has decided to go back to PHP. Just two months with PHP again and the project is complete. He gives seven reasons of why he switched back to PHP after 2 years of unsuccessfully. I agree with some but not others. Here are his 7 reasons, you can read them in more detail on the original post. “Is there anything Rails/Ruby can do that PHP can’t do? … (thinking)… NO.” Our entire company’s stuff was in PHP: Don’t underestimate integration. Don’t want what I don’t need. It’s small and fast. It’s built to my tastes. I love SQL. Programming languages are like girlfriends: The new one is better because *YOU* are better. Comparing Apples and Oranges First of all, I would li

To pass the CCNA exam and earn that coveted certification, you've got to know Cisco switches inside and out. Among the many important details you've got to know are the three methods that Cisco switches use to forward frames, and the differences between the three. The first switching method is Store-and-Forward. The name is the recipe, because that's just what the switch does - it stores the

  This circuit is suitable for a variety of uses. If you have a solar powered 12 Volt lead-acid battery power source, the circuit can be used to efficiently power lower voltage devices. It can be used to provide power to devices that normally use a set of small batteries for power. Common voltages such as 1.5V, 3V, 4.5V, 6V, 7.5V, and 9V can be produced by this circuit. The circuit has been used to power small fans, portable radios, a miniature TV, and more. Please Read More in site source: http://www.solorb.com/elect/solarcirc/buckreg1/index.html Thank you.

This is circuit 13.8V, 40A Switching Power Supply, It is high current power supply switching regulator. And Nice Circuit for power user. _______________________________ By Manfred Mornhinweg, XQ2FOD This article was originally published (in a slightly modified form) in the QST magazine, December 1998 and January 1999, and in the Radio Amateur’s Handbook, 1999. Visit the American Radio Relay League for information on these publications, and a world of ham radio related things! Design decisions There are several different topologies for switchers in common use, and the first decision a designer must take is which of them to consider. Among the factors affecting the decision are the power level, the number of outputs needed, the range of input voltage to be accepted, the desired tradeoff between complexity, quality and cost, and many more. For this power supply I decided to use the half bridge forward converter design. This topology connects the power transformer to a bridge form

I apologize for the downtime that the site has been experiencing over the past few days. Daily Gaming News has been on the edge of outgrowing the small shared server it was hosted on for a few months now, and the Metallica article posted this past Tuesday pushed things over the edge. Visitors from Digg, angry video gamers, and Metallica lovers and haters alike flooded into the site and caused a sharp spike on the DGN server that our hosting company didn't appreciate. Then I accidentally broke the site when I was trying to move the site to the new server. Whoops. I'll have more on the saga of the great DGN Metallica outage when I get my blog up and running on the new server. I've moved everything to a hosting company that has more robust servers, far better customer support, and the ability to survive the digg frontpage without any trouble. Be sure to check back next Tuesday for new articles.

Perhaps it’s a coincidence, but ever since the big switch in ad services, from Google AdSense to Microsoft, Digg.com has been giving me loads and loads of script errors just like this one (click for full size image): And this happens on any network I’m on, or any of the dozens of computers I can work [...]

The switching power supply provides 12 volts, at 10 amps, maximum, using a discrete transistor regulator with an op-amp functioning as a comparator in the feedback circuit. With reference to the schematic, the front panel power-on light is not shown. There is no adjustable current limiter in this unit, although R1, R2, R3, Q2, R8, R9, C5 and Q4 set the current limit to approximately 10 amps. As you can see, the design is very similar to that of a linear power supply, except that L1, and D1 have been added, and U1 operates in a switching mode as a comparator with a small amount of hystersis. The switching frequency of this unit varies with the output current drawn by the load. This is an undesireable feature, which is why PWM regulators are used today. With a PWM regulator, the switching frequency is constant and will produce spurs only at known discrete frequencies rather than spurs at all frequencies. The Darlington-connected pass transistor block in the schematic is there twice (in
