Hard Boiled Egg Con Cellphone Radiation

I’ve learned this trick a while ago, I could actually recommend this for those who are always on the go and have a so busy schedule that they don’t have the time to cook for a decent anymore…

 

Just put one egg between two cellphones (mobile phones), turn them on, leave them for at least one hour… and presto you now have a hard boiled egg for your meal…

Huh! Am I serious? Of course I am… it is just to show you folks how much radiation cellphone really has.

 

We all accept the reality that cellphone is already stapled in our life. Just learn to use your cellphone carefully and wisely.

 

Do not put them inside the pocket of your jeans or skirts. Because it can affect fertility.

 

Minimize the use of it too, ‘coz it can affect the healthy functioning of your memory.

Will the newly invented Silver I Film be the answer to cut off radiation from cellphone, computers and other radiation emitting gadgets ?

 

 

Technology… is a queer thing. It brings you great gifts with one hand, and it stabs you in the back with the other. ~C.P. Snow,New York Times, 15 March 1971

The Charm of Credit Cards

Dictionary defines merchant accounts (Credit Cards) as a concept system of payment named after the small plastic card issued to users of the system.

More and more people are actually opting to carry this small plastic card than the actual cash itself in their wallet. Despite the fact that there is an steady increase in the numbers of people who are falling in the pitholes of bad credit card debts which sometimes can even lead to filing a bankruptcy which could be a bit humiliating. Why, because they find it more convenient and safe to use.

Credit cards works in this manner, the issuer lends money to the consumer (or the user) to be paid later to the merchant accounts. Usually there is a deadline or period of time before the user would actually pay the issuer, if not an interest will be charged. So people would rather the deadline than carry some cash around.

Monica my Dog

Dogs are man’s best friend … Dogs save lives, they can be a companion for the disabled and elderly, they can protect, they are useful employees in the law enforcement offices, they can help farmers in the field, they can be accessories (well, you usually see them with Hollywood stars J), they can also be a source of food (uh uh, bad idea, especially here in our place, but it’s good that there are already laws against dog slaughter and more awareness), and what else, they can work, they can compete … oh there are so many things dogs can do. 

They are really indeed our best friend, they are not just pets but friends… that’s why I don’t get surprised when I hear news about missing dogs being advertised. Or a man hunt is launched to search for their missing pets. 

I once experienced a man hunt for my lost pet dog Monica, she is a very lovable and very sweet dog, sadly we were not lucky to have found her because she was already in the stomachs of some bad guys. (gross!)  So I understand how it feels to have a lost animal, because they are more than just an animal, but friends as well. Keep loving your pets folks, not only your dogs but the entire animal kingdom, because they deserve it!

Online Outdoor and Gardens

For the past several years, online shopping site have sprouted like mushrooms in the internet. Shopping online is indeed more convenient and is an easy way of finding the right product you are looking for, without the extra trouble of traveling from one shop to another and sometimes dealing with ignorant or impolite sales staff. Lucky you, if you happen to meet a helpful sales person who would gladly assist you around and even give valuable suggestions. Well, I am not generalizing all stores but of course we cannot deny that there are really some rude assistants. 

Anyway, back to online shopping, at least by doing these you would only deal with your computer monitor and read several advertisement articles regarding certain products. And just cross your fingers and hope they were all true and actually meets your standard once you decided to take them. 

The only held back is that most online shopping sites have limited stores on their list, but not anymore because there is actually one shopping online site which has all the list of stores available online. They also have lots of information about the product, for instance you’re looking for outdoor and garden products, their list includes not only the stores but useful tips and articles, and I mean really helpful information that would surely make you feel like a pro in gardening. 

Offshore Banking and Privacy

Offshore privacy can no longer be taken for granted. The meaning of “Offshore” is shifting as countries dismantle their bank secrecy and non-disclosure legislation.

Provided you do manage to transfer your funds Offshore in complete privacy, can you be sure that they will remain so?

Many offshore providers do not care too much about giving proper advice as to the suitability of offshore banks and jurisdictions. Rather, they will suggest opening Savings Accounts with whichever handful of banks they have relationships with, wherever these may be. St. Peter’s Port, Guernsey and St. John’s, Antigua are both “offshore”, and that’s all that apparently seems to matter.

Beware. Nowadays, “offshore” no longer always means “private”. Getting involved with the wrong jurisdiction — or the wrong bank — is not uncommon, and hasty choices based upon poor advice may be the source of long-term problems.

The choice of Offshore Banking jurisdiction deserves extreme care.

Venice to Help Mother Earth

venice_fountain drinking fountain

On the World Environment Day 2008, Venice has a special gift for Mother Earth - that is to help reduce bottled mineral consumption in the area.

Venice is a regular tourist spot in Italy, Venice will encourage tourist to drink from fountains and will be given an empty water bottle with a message “Don’t Throw Me Away, Re-use Me” complete with a map indicating the location of the 122 Fountains flowing with clean water.

Italian’s are the world’s largest consumers of bottled water, although the natural water flowing in Italy’s fountain is one of the cleanest in the world.

Hopefully the project would spread in many countries as well, especially here in the Philippines.

We think it would be a great idea to lessen the use of plastic bottled water if electronic drinking fountains would be visible again, especially in malls and schools.

Blue-Ray Disc over DVD

blue-ray

 
When I was still a child, I can still remember watching Disney movies on our ancient Betamax player. And now, technology has certainly changed… from betamax to VHS, to VCD and now DVD.

But the good old DVD fears that it would soon be just a thing from the past. It is facing a tough competition, because its position is being challenged by the Blue-Ray Disc. It was being predicted that Blue-Ray Disc will become the standard format for high-definition movie discs. The question is when.

It is defined that Blu-ray Disc main uses are high-definition video and data storage. But the disc has the same dimensions as a standard DVD or CD.

The name Blu-ray Disc is derived from the blue laser used to read and write this type of disc. Because of its shorter wavelength (405 nm), substantially more data can be stored on a Blu-ray Disc than on the DVD format, which uses a red (650 nm) laser. A dual layer Blu-ray Disc can store 50 GB, almost six times the capacity of a dual layer DVD.

Unless prices for Blue-Ray disc player would go down, its chances in dominating video sales are still doubtful. Especially that only limited movie titles are available in the format.

We all want to enjoy watching our favorite movies using Blu-ray’s sharper picture and clearer sound. However, DVD should not yet fear its extinction because clearly it still has a long way to go.
