What If They Doubt You? 2008-02-11 20:38:53 The word doubters in my topic really gets troubling at times, thats because its link to persons who Question Motives Refusing to believe without proof.To be undecided or skeptical about.To tend to disbelieve; distrust. I was just last month when I first started this blog and I introduced it to my girlfriend, I first explained to her what a blog was and that there are endless possibilities and can derive from it. But it was quite clear that she didn't have a clue or could careless, all she saw was me been online for too long. In spite of what she thought, I went ahead and worked on custom templates for my blog and spent hours reading and look at other blogs to get the basic fundamentals. Knowing that doubt can have a big effect if you let it distract you from believing in your own

How Do U Know Your A Blogger 2008-02-10 09:53:16 This question has been on my mind for a while now, yes i even question myself about the whole thing. Until I did a little research and I discovered that about in the mid 90s bloggers weren't even called bloggers, they were simply journalists who journal there daily events and simple maintained and add content which is now labeled "Blog". While most blogs today are really popular news headline and commentary and popular online diary, I think if the focus i shifted mainly to allow reader of our content to interact more and share. Hey I just think the focus shifts far from text content to mp3, video, photo and applications sharing. Well hey I know were human and tend to stray a lot, but let’s evaluate ourselves and be bloggers. Read more:Blogger
What Would You Do For Money? 2008-02-10 08:45:12 Yea, lets face it money truly puts a boomerang smile on our faces. Think about it, to the food we consume everyday, and just about how we go about our day to day life, money plays a big role.Even to the acquiring of the world's most luxurious items and services, without money it would not be attainable at all. Long gone were the bartering days where goods were exchange for services, no we all say "money talk & bullshit walk" .And which brings us back to our main question, what would you do for money? hmm...some of us would just do enough to cover our bills every month, which a good percentage of us do anyways, while others lower standards in various ways. Some even tear our families apart intentionally or non-intentionally while a few there are those who will do whatever if the price i Read more:Money
Commitments 2008-02-09 13:11:47 There are times when even the best of us have trouble with commitment, and we may be surprised at the commitments we're willing to let slip out of our grasp. Commitments
are complicated. We may surprise ourselves by the commitments we're willing to make, true commitment, takes effort, and sacrifice. Which is why sometimes, we have to learn the hard way, to choose our commitments very carefully.Share
Dell Drops AMD Chips 2008-02-09 13:10:32 Dell Inc. has stopped selling many computers with processors from AMD
Inc. on its Web site, Dell will continue selling some through retailers. Intel still made the processors used in most computers sold on Dell.com, but AMD raised its profile in the chip field by being inside some Dell machines. Shares of Dell rose 2 cents, to $19.45, while AMD shares fell 25 cents, or 3.8 percent, to close at $6.34 Friday. Dell's move caused a stir online that the company tried to tamp down. A spokesman, David Frink, called the development which Dell disclosed to consumers on the company's Web site "not even all that interesting." "We regularly adjust our product offerings and how customers can purchase those products," he said. "The majority of our consumer AMD-based systems are available through our Read more:Drops

Yahoo to reject Microsoft bid 2008-02-09 13:07:33 Yahoo
's board has decided Microsoft
's $31-per-share offer "massively undervalues" the company, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal. Yahoo is expected to formally reject
Microsoft's offer, the Journal reported. In the report, it appears Yahoo is floating the idea that it might consider an offer of at least $40 a share. I'm not in the boardroom, but all of this--the leak, the wording--sounds like more of a negotiating tactic than a final rejection. But, if Yahoo does want to play hardball, it has bolstered its position. The report says that Yahoo has also adopted a so-called poison pill that means that the Internet company could force Microsoft into a proxy fight to replace the board before getting Yahoo shareholders to vote on its existing offer. sourceAwww po microsoft...ha

Automatic License Plate Readers 2008-02-09 09:23:46 Those who ignore their overdue parking tickets may find it harder and harder to hide from enforcers as cities begin employing the user of automatic license-plate reader technology. Officials in cities using Genetec's AutoVu say the device allows boot crews to cross-check license plates nine times faster than when they used the old, manual method. The company is interested in wider law enforcement applications. An automatic license-plate reader that can scan 500 license plates an hour looking for stolen vehicles underwent its first field tests by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department last week. Using character-recognition technology developed for the Italian Post Office to read postal addresses, four robot eyes in the course of one night queried more than 12,000 license plates, rec Read more:License

Knee Generator, turn walk into watts 2008-02-08 23:28:53 A stroll around the park may soon be enough to charge the raft of batteries needed in today's power-hungry gadgets.US and Canadian scientists have built a novel device that effortlessly harvests energy from human movements.The adapted knee brace, outlined in the journal Science, can generate enough energy to power a mobile phone for 30 minutes from one minute of walking.The first people to benefit could be amputees who are being fitted with increasingly sophisticated prosthetics."All of the new developments in prosthetics require large power budgets," Dr Douglas Weber of the University of Pittsburgh, and one of the authors of the paper, told BBC News."You need power to run your neural interface; you need it to run your powered joint, and so on."Getting that power is going to be really impo Read more:Generator

Changing the nature of Genetic Nature 2008-02-08 07:03:43 The next generation of parents is set to embrace genetic testing of kids for diseases that may occur later in life, according to a study published in the American Journal of Medical Genetics. This is big news given that many medical professionals oppose the practice, and there is a movement in Congress to secure genetic privacy. This raises a key question: What is the nature of genetic data? The study's author, Angela Bradbury, M.D., mentioned a generational component to understanding how society interacts with genetic data.

Do You Need Vista Sp1? Yes and No 2008-02-08 03:41:07 Yes Its good to install the newest codes for your OS, but it can also mean lots of installation work, without much improvement. Well here's a little review on microsofts new sp1 The good: Windows Vista
SP1 improves the overall upgrade process, fixes hundreds of tiny problems, and makes it easier for third-party vendors to write stable code for Vista. The bad: Windows Vista SP1 lacks any compelling "must haves," and, in most cases, doesn't significantly improve performance (in some cases, it even degrades performance). The bottom line: While it's always good to install the latest code for any operating system, installing the Windows Vista SP1 update will require some casual users to spend a few hours without any visible or tangible improvements t
Yes We Can 2008-02-05 00:02:02 According to will.i.am, founding member and frontman of Black Eyed Peas, the "Yes We Can Song" was inspired by Senator Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign and especially the speech Obama gave following the New Hampshire primary. He states, "It made me reflect on the freedoms I have, going to school where I went to school, and the people that came before Obama like Martin Luther King, presidents like Abraham Lincoln that paved the way for me. . . ." Dylan says, "The speech was inspiring about making change in America and I believe what it says and I hope everybody votes."The music video includes excerpts from Obama's speech and appearances from several celebrities: Scarlett Johansson, John Legend, Herbie Hancock, Kate Walsh, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, Adam Rodriquez, Kelly Hu, Adam Rodrique
Grow Up 2008-02-04 13:36:07 I've heard that its possible to grow up, I've just never met anyone who’s actually done it. Without parents to defy, we break the rules we make for ourselves. We throw tantrums when things don’t go our way. We whisper secrets with our best friend, in the dark. We look for comfort where we can find it. And we hope against all logic, against all experience, like children- we never give up hope.......Do we really grow up?Share
Feels Good Or Not 2008-02-04 13:35:42 Too often going after what feels good means letting of what you know is right. And letting someone in means abandoning the walls you took so long to build. Of course, the toughest sacrifices are the ones we don't see coming ; when we don't have time to come up with a strategy, pick a side, or measure the potential loss. When that happens, when the battle chooses us and not the other way around, that's when the sacrifice becomes more than we can bear. There are days that make the sacrifices seem worthwhile. And then there are the days where everything feels like a sacrifice. And then there are the sacrifices that you cant even figure out why you're making I just can't tell you what you want to hear which seems to be a theme in my life. Just because you can't tell someone doesn't mean you ca Read more:Feels
Play To Win 2008-02-04 13:35:17 Let's say you were drafted to a team that wasn't your first pick. You know, you don't like the players. You hate the way they play the game. You even think the quarterback is full of crap. The quarterback's a pain in the ass you don't owe a damned thing to. But, it's your team. You don't quit. You don't talk to the press. You don't bitch to the coach. You just, you just go out there every Sunday and you make the blocks and you take the hits and you, you play to win. You show up and you suit up and you play, because it's your freaking team.Share
