Cell Phone and MP3 Players Causes Hearing Loss 2007-09-24 05:02:00 Researchers at the Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research in Chandigarh, India, revealed that people who talk on a cell phone for more than an hour a day were found to have suffered losses of high-frequency hearing. While that may not sound so bad, such hearing loss actually results in an inability to hear consonants like F and T, giving a whole new spin to the phrase "Can you hear me now?"The team of researchers caution that "[their] intention is not to scare the public" and "there is as yet no cause for alarm." They also don't give any explanation of why a cell phone is any more dangerous for hearing than a traditional headset. But, if you're a heavy cell phone user and value your (or your children's) hearing, you might want to think about laying off the babbling a bit.The UKers at the Royal National Institute for Deaf People tested 110 random people and found that 72 of them were listening above an unsafe level: 85 decibels, the level at which prolonged listeni Read more:Players

10 Reasons Why I Don't Like Your Blog 2007-09-23 21:52:00 10 Reasons
Why I Don't Like Your BlogBy Blog BlokeI get a lot of questions about how to make a blog better, so I thought I would look at it from a different angle and tell you what I don't like about some of the blogs that I see out there. If you think you fit into one or more of the categories, don't take it personally. Just take it to heart and learn from it. Trust me when I say that we've all been there -- yours truly included, and I'mstill learning every day.1. Your blog looks like everyone else's. Answer: Learn a little HTML, CSS and Photoshop skills and convert that canned template into your own. Spruce it up a little. Change the colours, make a new graphic for the banner, or put the sidebar on the other side. Whatever... as long as it looks unique and like YOU.2. Your blog is too hard to read. Answer: Your fonts are too small, your template colors clash, your navigation is confusing or maybe you just can't write and should consider getting into podcasting or something. I
8 Ways to Protect Your Blog and Recover from a Disaster 2007-09-23 06:32:00 8 Ways to Protect
Your Blog and Recover from a Disaster
By Blog BlokeWhat would you do if you woke up this morning and found yourself locked out of your blog? Or worse still, your blog had completely vanished?Lately I’ve been noticing more disgruntled bloggers who are finding themselves in that very position, apparently the victims of a blog hijacking by nefarious hackers who have nothing better to do.So it got me thinking about what I can do to make sure that it doesn't happen to me. This post is the result of that brainstorm, so here are a few ideas that you can do to prevent or recover from a blog disaster happening to you:1. The first thing you can do on the front lines of defence is to make certain that you have a strong password. Passwords that combine alphanumeric letters, numbers and ASCII characters are the strongest. Keep your password private, do not leave it unencrypted on your desktop and never, ever give it out in a digital format (i.e. email, chat etc.) under any circu
Fired for Unauthorized Blogging 2007-09-21 04:54:00 Blogging at work or, worse still, blogging about work? You probably know already that such behavior is frowned upon, but it could also get you shown to the door: A new study says that 9.1 percent of companies have fired people for violating policies about blogging or posting on message boards while on the job.The study, from message monitoring company Proofpoint, also claims a whopping 27.6 percent of companies have fired people for violating the company's email policy and another 11 percent for violating a media sharing policy.It's important to note that those statistics refer to the number of companies that have taken any action, not the number of workers who've been affected. If a company with 50,000 employees fires one person for unauthorized blogging, that would count the same as a company that fired its entire 20-person staff for the same reason. 308 companies were polled, indicating that 28 companies have terminated bloggers.Has anyone at your place of business gotten the axe Read more:Fired

Cell Phone Addict 2007-09-20 05:09:00 Biasanya banyak individu yang selalu tergantung atau kecanduan pada sesuatu hal yang disukainya, namun alangkah menyedihkan jika hal tersebut adalah ketergantungan terhadap handphone.Sebuah survei yang dilakukan oleh Carphone Warehouse dan London School of Economics menemukan bahwa satu dari tiga individu tidak mau menyerahkan handphone mereka demi uang 1 juta dollar. Bahkan, menurut mereka lebih baik tidak minum alkohol, coklat, teh, bahkan (maaf) seks dari pada tidak menggunakan hand phone dalam 1 bulan. Dari 1.256 responden, para remaja dibawah 24 tahun tidak rela menyerahkan handphone mereka daripada yang telah berumur 45 tahun ke atas.Sebuah survei tandingan yang dilakukan Geeksugar menghasilkan jawaban yang berbeda. Kelihatannya para masyarakat Amerika lebih rela menyerahkan handphonenya jika diberikan uang.Bagaimana jika Anda selama satu bulan tidak menggunakan handphone?Sumber :- Cellphones: More Addicting than Sex or Money- Would You Rather Give Up Sex, Money Or Your Cell Pho Read more:Cell Phone
Happy 25th Birthday to Smiley Icon 2007-09-18 23:21:00 For those of us who feel pretty cutting-edge because we've been using smileyfaces and other emoticons in our emails and instant messages for the pastfew years, guess what? The smiley emoticon is 25 years old.One of the first uses of a colon, dash and parenthesis to form a sidewayssmiley face occurred born on Sept. 19, 1982, when Carnegie Mellon University Professor Scott E. Fahlman suggested in an online academic bulletin board—the precursor to chat rooms and instant messaging—that there was a need for symbols to convey emotion, the nuance of which often is oftenmissed by readers."I propose the following character for joke markers: :-) Read it sideways," Fahlman wrote. "Actually, it is probably more economical to mark things thatare NOT jokes, given current trends. For this, use :-( "Twenty five years later, emotions for every kind of emotion, mood, and emphasis take the form of colorful, often animated faces. Fahlman's look back on his emoticon history web page is a good read, e Read more:Birthday

Thinking outside of the box 2007-09-17 04:05:00 A Chinese walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer. He tells the loan officer that he is going to Taiwan on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000. The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the Chinese hands over the keys to a new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank.He produces the title and everything checked out.The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan. The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the Chinese for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against a $5,000 loan..An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.Two weeks later, the Chinese returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41. The loan officer says, "Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away,we

Can you "Steal" Someone's Wi-Fi Signal? 2007-09-10 05:23:00 Faced with an open Wi-Fi signal and no other way to get online, I've done it: I've borrowed that wireless connection, sent a few emails, browsed a few web pages, and didn't feel any remorse. But technically, in both the U.S. and the U.K., I've broken the law.The BBC joins a chorus asking the question whether these laws make sense, or whether it's unethical or immoral to "steal" an open Wi-Fi signal from someone who's paying good money for it.In this thoughtful story, the author posits a hypothetical example of a man walking down the street, spilling gold coins behind him that evaporate if they aren't retrieved. Is it immoral to take some? The analogy is a strange one, but it applies to wireless: Say you're sitting at a restaurant for lunch, and your iPhone says there's an open wireless connection nearby. Presumably it's from the apartment upstairs, and the resident is off at work. Do you connect to it? Should you feel bad — or face prosecution — if you do? There's no one Read more:Steal

Junk Sleep 2007-09-07 22:47:00 British teenagers are damaging their health by not getting enough sleep because they are distracted by electronic gadgets in their bedrooms, according to a survey. Advice body The Sleep
Council said "junk sleep" could rival the consumption of unhealthy junk food as a major lifestyle issue for parents of teenage children.Its poll of 1,000 youngsters aged 12 to 16 found that 30 percent managed just 4 to 7 hours sleep as opposed to the recommended 8 or 9 hours. Almost a quarter said they fell asleep more than once a week while watching TV, listening to music or using other electronic gadgets."This is an incredibly worrying trend," said Dr Chris Idzikowski of the Edinburgh Sleep Centre."What we are seeing is the emergence of Junk Sleep - that is sleep that is of neither the length nor quality that it should be in order to feed the brain with the rest it needs to perform properly at school."Nearly all the teenagers had a phone, music system or TV in their bedroom, with around two-thirds pos
The Emperor and The Seed 2007-09-04 23:51:00 The Emperor
and The SeedBy Author Unknown An emperor in the Far East was growing old and knew it was time to choose his successor. Instead of choosing one of his assistants or his children, he decided something different. He called young people in the kingdom together one day. He said, "It is time for me to step down and choose the next emperor. I have decided to choose one of you." The kids were shocked! But the emperor continued. "I am going to give each one of you a seed today. One very special seed. I want you to plant the seed, water it and come back here after one year from today with whatyou have grown from this one seed. I will then judge the plants that you bring, and the one I choose will be the next emperor!"One boy named Ling was there that day and he, like the others, received a seed. He went home and excitedly told his mother the story. She helped him get a pot and planting soil, and he planted the seed and watered it carefully. Every day he would water it and watch to se

Are You Blog Addict? 2007-08-24 22:50:00 Are you a blog addict? Here are ten signs that may indicate that you have an addiction, my friend.1. Bloglines, Google Reader or some other RSS reader is constantly open on your computer's desktop.2. You tell customers that you missed a project deadline because "some things" came up but in reality, you were blogging.3. You periodically dream that you are blogging.4. You get inspiration for new blog posts at the strangest times - in the Jacuzzi, sitting on the toilet, during marital activities (cough, cough)... you get the picture.5. Before blogs, you used to tuck the kids into bed at night. Now you check for unapproved blog comments before heading to bed yourself.6. In order for your family to keep up with what's going on in your life, they have to read your blog. Furthermore, if they want to communicate with you, they have to comment on your blog.7. You have actually considered setting up a blog for your pet of which you would post the entries pretending you are your pet (weirdo).8.
Tips for Avoiding Spyware 2007-08-24 03:25:00 If you've spent any amount of time on the Internet, you've probably wasted at least a few hours removing adware or spyware from your computer. Spyware
or adware, which is a software program that installs itself (without your knowledge) on your computer. After it's installed, the software collects information about you, and when you're online it sends the information to the spyware program's owner. Most spyware fits into either of two categories: * Surveillance spyware * Advertising spywareSurveillance spyware scans documents on your computer and can capture your keystrokes as you type. It can spy on forms you're filling out on a Web site (such as your login password or your credit card number) and the text you enter in a chat window. Government and detective agencies have been known to use this type of software, as have jealous spouses.Advertising spyware is software that is installed when you're installing other software (usually software you download from the Internet) or that
Story of One Eyed Mother 2007-08-22 22:52:00 Son's Statement:"My mom only had one eye. I hated her... she was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students & teachers to support the family. There was this one day during elementary school where my mom came to say hello to me.I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me?I ignored her, threw her a hateful look and ran out.The next day at school one of my classmates said, "EEEE, your mom only has one eye!"I wanted to bury myself. I also wanted my mom to just disappear.So I confronted her that day and said, " If you're only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don't you just die?!!!"My mom did not respond...I didn't even stop to think for a second about what I had said, because I was full of anger. I was oblivious to her feelings. I wanted out of that house, and have nothing to do with her.So I studied real hard, got a chance to go to Singapore to study.Then, I got married.I bought a house of my own.I had kids of my own.I was happy with my life, my kids and the comfortsThen o

Excel 2007 Calculation Bug 2007-09-27 23:19:00 Earlier this week, reports surfaced of a strange error in Excel
2007 which caused calculations involving the number 65,535 (and thereabouts) to return wildly inaccurate results.You can try it for yourself in Excel by multiplying 850 by 77.1. Excel will return 100,000 instead of 65,535. Similar operations that should return 65,535 will also come back incorrect, and there's a problem with 65,536, too. The problem is only present in Excel 2007; earlier versions of Excel are not affected.Microsoft has traced the problem back to a floating point issue and how results are displayed within a cell in Excel. Microsoft says the calculation is actually done correctly, it's just that when it comes time to show the result on screen, Excel chokes. For example, if you multiply that "100,000" above by 2 and put the answer in a new cell, you'll get 131,070, not 200,000. However, this isn't reliable either: Try adding one and you get 100,001, not 65,536.Microsoft says a fix is on the way and is in t
Facts about USB Flash Drive 2007-09-27 22:13:00 The USB, Universal Serial Bus, Flash
Drive was introduced as an alternative to floppy disks with the advantage of being more reliable, more durable, much faster and with much larger storage capacity. Today the USB Flash Drives have completely replaced the aging floppy disks. Since they are mostly used to store and transfer digital files between computers the USB Flash Drives are seen as a complement to memory cards. Facts like size and lack of USB interface on small portable devices contribute also to the fact of not being a competitive storage format to memory cards.Considering that every new desktop computer, laptop computer and printer has at least one USB interface the USB Flash Drive standard is the most compatible flash memory device for transferring digital files to and from a computer.Since USB Flash Drives do not have a standardized form factor they can be found in many different sizes and designs, but in general they are no bigger than a lighter or a pack of gum.

Blogger Highly Effective Habits 2007-10-10 05:15:00 ‘how do I become a more successful blogger?’One of the keys to success was that we’d taught ourself a series of habits that had become a part of our ‘blogging life’. We practised these habits consistently over time (most of them did not come naturally for us at first) until they became our second nature.Most emerge over time as we develop skills and attitudes that combine in ways that improve our blogging. Some of these habits seem to come pretty naturally but many need to be practised and intentionally worked upon.Each successful blogger will have their own list of habits and rhythms that increase their success depending upon factors like personality type, style of blogging, topic of blogs, goals of blogs etc.According to Darren Rowse in his ProBlogger
Blog, there are some blogging ‘habits’ or attitudes that he have been working on and have seen in other bloggers that he admire:1. Proactivesuccessful bloggers self starters. One of the things I’ve noticed about blogg
