Backup an iPhone

2009-12-01T12:18:00.005+08:00

If you've got an iPhone, there's a good chance you've already sat through—and been annoyed by—its backup routine. iTunes updates your iPhone's backups at every sync, which makes users' lives a bit easier, and guarantees some kind of safetly net by default. But! As with most fully automated systems, iTunes backup is kind of enigmatic. It just sort of... happens, and it's not clear what you're saving, where it's going, and how to keep it truly safe.

What it's doing is performing a full backup equivalent. In other words, instead of just mirroring your entire device as a big image file, it's extracting all the useful bits, so it can restore your iPhone as if it had undergone a full, mirrored backup. This includes, among other things, bookmarks, app settings and data (including in-app purchases, but not the apps themselves), contacts, call history, Mail accounts, SMSes, videos and photos. In other words, pretty much everything. Backups are performed automatically, and restoring to one is a simple matter of plugging in your iPhone, alt-clicking on its icon in iTunes, and selecting "Restore from Backup."

Crucially, this is different from selecting "Restore" in the device summary page: doing that will revert your device to a clean, factory-default image, which will delete all your personal data. Which isn't what we're trying to do here! (In fact, it's the opposite!) If you attempt to do this, you will be prompted to perform a backup, which should be a red flag.

iTunes stores its backups as archived files in semi-cryptic directories, so if you want to pull them out of the closed iTunes system for proper backup, i.e. to an external HDD or online storage solution, you can find them here, as per Apple's useful support page on the subject:

On a Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/

On Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\(username)\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

On Windows Vista: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\

To add a backup to iTunes, simply copy it back to its default directory, and it should show up as a restore option, labeled by date, when you're setting up a wiped or recently capital "R" Restored iPhone or iPod Touch.

How to Get Even With Someone

2009-01-21T21:21:00.001+08:00

Garage Sale
Place an ad in the classified section of your local newspaper advertising a GIGANTIC Garage Sale listing the address of your victim. Advertise televisions, cam-corder, vintage automobile, antiques, etc. Sale begins at 6:00 a.m. all items in the backyard, just come around back and come early!

X-Rays at Airports
Purchase a large adult bedroom toy. Wrap it in a large amount of tin foil. Secretly hide it in a piece of the victims carry on luggage. As it goes through the airport x-ray machine the contents of the device will be shielded by the tin foil and will be unwrapped and inspected by airport security officials. An absolute classic...

Oil Spot
At night pour used oil underneath the victim's car while parked in the driveway. Pour enough that will be alarming. Continue to do this each night. The subject will spend great deals of money trying to get the oil leak repaired time and time again. I have even heard of a person buying a new car after the repeated attempts at repair. Imagine their surprise when that new car starts leaking too.

Flat Tire
Very similar to the Oil Spot, but with a twist. Let most of the air out of one of your victim's tires. Keep doing this each night, and watch as they call a tow truck or the Automobile Club day after day. Odd how those new tires keep losing air, too.

Paper Money
Write a sexually oriented solicitation message, victim's name and phone number (inviting a phone call) on the edge of several pieces of paper money before spending them. The victim will receive many eye popping inquiries. Another favorite...

Fax Machines
Write whatever you wish on 9 pages of 8 1/2 by 11 inch paper and tape them together (end to end). Dial the victim's fax number and start sending the pages through. After page two has been transmitted, tape the top of page 1 to the bottom of page 9 making a continuous loop. The document will continue to cycle until the victim's fax machine has run out of paper. Be sure and disable your phone number from being printed on the fax and also disable caller I.D. This prank is great to get even with a business or individual who has somehow cheated you. This can have same results as Oil Spot.

Dogs
Purchase a silent dog whistle. In the early hours of the morning (2am-4am) go near the victim's house and blow the silent whistle and the dog will begin to bark uncontrollably until the owner awakes and disciplines the animal. When the owner goes back to bed repeat the process again.

In case you screw-up your Nokia N78

2009-01-16T17:24:00.008+08:00

NO NO do not send it to the shop yet. Try this at home folks! Most HP shop will "kencing" you & charged you ridiculously for the repair services.

I've did something stupid on my N78 this morning, installed some hack & the freakin installation totally screwed up my N78, I was like F*%K, F!@k & Fcuk!!! Fhew! thanks to the power of Google, I've managed to save my beloved N78 but most the the link are bulls@%t! its not "3" , "*" & "the Green" you f@#kers! its hurt the bloody fingers when you press those button & keep on trying. I've to find the hard way for the solution. Its the "Multimedia" Button not the "Green" button.

This a very safe reset will just reset phone settings like profiles, themes & shortcuts I think. All contacts, calender, notes & blah, blah are not remove

Hard Reset, there are two ways of doing this:

1) Restore phone to the original factory default settings:
Backup your data first!
Menu -> Tools -> Settings -> General -> Factory settings.
OR *#7370# in standby screen!
Here you need to enter the lock code (usually 12345)
Phone will restart, and factory settings restored.
2) To hard reset (format) Nokia N78 (hardware method, incase you totally screw-up ur N78):
Turn off the mobile phone.
Press and Hold the following three buttons:
Multimedia button, the “*” button, and the number “3″ button.
While holding these three buttons, press the power button to switch on ur N78
Release those buttons when the screen displays the Nokia Logo.
Your journey to restore you phone to your own setting begin here... XAXAXA

Bananananana Goodness!

2009-01-15T11:55:00.001+08:00

Reading THIS, you'll NEVER look at a banana in
the same way again!!

Bananas which contain three natural sugars (sucrose, fructose and glucose) and fiber give an instant, sustained, and substantial boost of energy.

Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous, 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes. But energy isn't the only way a banana can help us keep fit.It can also help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses and conditions, making it a must to add to our daily diet.

Reducing Depression: According to a recent survey undertaken by MIND amongst people suffering from depression, many felt much better after eating a banana. This is because bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

PMS: Forget the pills -- eat a banana. The vitamin B6 it contains regulates blood glucose levels, which can affect your mood.

Anemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of hemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it the perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration has just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: Two-hundred students at a Twickenham (Middlesex, UK) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Hangovers: One of the quickest ways of curing a hangover is to make a banana milkshake, sweetened with honey. The banana calms the stomach and, with the help of the honey, builds up depleted blood sugar levels, while the milk soothes and re-hydrates your system.

Heartburn: Bananas have a natural antacid effect in the body, so if you suffer from heartburn, try eating a banana for soothing relief.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood-sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito Bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Nerves: Bananas are high in B vitamins that help calm the nervous system.

Overweight and at Work? Studies at the Institute of Psychology in Austria found pressure at work leads to gorging on comfort food like chocolate and crisps. Looking at 5,000 hospital patients, researchers found the most obese were more likely to be in high-pressure jobs. The report concluded that, to avoid panic-induced food cravings, we need to control our blood-sugar levels by snacking on high carbohydrate foods every 2 hours to keep levels steady.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in over-chronicler cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Temperature Control: Many other cultures see bananas as a "cooling" fruit that can lower both the physical and emotional temperature of expectant mothers. In Thailand, for example, pregnant women eat bananas to ensure their baby is born with a cool temperature.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD): Bananas can help SAD sufferers because they contain the natural mood enhancer, tryptophan.

Smoking Cessation: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6 and B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Stress Relief: Potassium is a vital mineral, which helps normalize the heartbeat, sends oxygen to the brain and regulates your body's water balance. When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. They can be re-balanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Stroke Risk: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%!

Wart Removal: Those keen on natural alternatives swear that if you want to kill off a wart, take a piece of banana skin and place it on the wart, with the yellow side out. Carefully hold the skin in place with a plaster or surgical tape!

Splinter Removal: For those hard-to-remove wood splinters, rather than poking and prodding with tweezer and needle, take a small piece of banana skin, large enough to cover the splinter wholly, yellow side out, and carefully tape it over the splinter with a band-aid or tape. Overnight the banana and its enzymes will work the splinter out, dissolving it and sealing the wound. So in the morning, when you remove the band-aid, the pad will be yucky brown mush and no more splinter!

CONCLUSION: So, a banana really is a natural remedy for many ills. When you compare it to an apple, it has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around!

So maybe its time to change that well-known phrase so that we say: "A banana a day keeps the doctor away!"

The 8 Best Hangover Cures Ever

2008-11-21T10:00:00.000+08:00

Hangovers are proof that God has a sense of humor. A very sick and twisted sense of humor. Hopefully on my judgment day when St. Peter or whoever is showing me all the bad things I’ve done, he’ll give me credit for all the epic hangovers I’ve endured.

When I was younger I used to view hangovers as punishment, hence the reason that I used to make bargains with the Almighty that if he would just make me feel better I would never drink again. If I had a dollar for every time I tried that route I could probably put a stripper through at least one semester of college.

As I got older and wiser I knew that after a hard night of drinking that began with a bottle Jack Daniels and ended with Jose Cuervo, I would be met not with punishment, but rather a challenge. I knew I was going to feel like a big bag of shit. The only question was for how long and how big of a bag. How do I get rid of the infamous hangover?

Over the years I’ve tried just about every technique, snake oil and just plain retarded idea you can imagine to not only get rid of, but prevent a hangover. So today I’ve decided to share some of the best and worst hangover remedies I’ve come across through the years. Read that last sentence again very carefully. I’m only going to talk about hangover remedies that I have personally tried. I know some ass hat is going to come up with some crazy shit in the comments section like “You didn’t talk about drinking the pee of a lactating Alpaca while sticking a carrot up your ass.” I know I didn’t. Because I’ve never tried that. I don’t have any carrots. Or “The only thing that gets rid of a hangover is time.” Yes, this is true. But letting something run its course isn’t curing it. How about next time you get cancer you just give it some time. Tell me how that works out.

So lets get on with the show.

What is a hangover? Put simply it is you being really dehydrated. It takes tons of water to filter alcohol out of your body after a night of drinking Boone’s Farm from the bottle. So the best hangover cures are the ones that hydrate your body as quickly as possible. I’m not going to include water in this list because any dumbass knows you should drink as much water as possible when your sick in any way.

64 oz of lemon lime prevention

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That being said this is probably the best hangover cure I know of and is my current go-to move. If you know you’re going to make like a nail tonight and get hammered, be sure to swing by the store and pick up a 64 oz. lemon-lime Gatorade before hand. The trick is to drink the entire bottle before you go to bed. Don’t put it into the fridge either. It’s impossible to drink 64 ounces of 40 degree Gatorade in one sitting. Instead just leave it on the counter, or better yet on your pillow so you don’t stumble into your room and forget to drink it. The high-fructose corn syrup used to sweeten the Gatorade also counteracts the chemical in your brain that tells you your full and will allow you to drink the entire bottle. And why lemon-lime Gatorade? Because if you’re a puker it won’t stain anything.

The Waffle House

This is another prevention one. If you didn’t have enough sense to eat before you went out drinking you should definitely eat before you pass out. No food in the belly means low blood sugar when you wake up that in turn means you go from bad hangover to really bad hangover. And lets face it, it’s much better to have something to throw up rather than dry heave until your asshole hurts. And why the Waffle House? The waffle house is kind of like Las Vegas. They welcome a drunk who has no concept of money or sticking to a budget. I’ve personally dropped more than $50 for food I didn’t eat on more than one occasion.

General Tso’s Chicken

This one is in case you didn’t follow the Waffle House advice. As mentioned before, low blood sugar will magnify a hangover. Genereal Tso’s is like jet fuel to your body. The pork fried rice has enough carbs to kill a horse on Adkins. The chicken itself has tons of protein and sugar which will make you feel like a million bucks. (I have no scientific reason for this. It just does.) And talk about energy! At 1700 calories, the average General Tso’s combo has enough calories to last your anorexic girlfriend a week

Ride that donkey

If you played your cards right last night, there’s a good chance there’s something sleeping next to you that resembles a girl, and she most likely feels like she was run over by the same truck that you were. What you both need is a good ol’ shot of endorphins. The temporary high produced by the endorphins released during sex will be the pick me up you need to get your ass out of bed. Just make sure you wake her up first.

Weed

I can handle the headache. It’s the nausea that kills me with a hangover. In case you don’t know it, Cannabis is prescribed to cancer patients in some states as a cure for nausea. Now I know that if you’re the type of drinker you say you are, chances are you have a friend who’s a pot head. Snag a doobie from him and stick it in a safe place (freezer) for the next time you have one of those nausea hangovers. You can wake up, take a few hits, and then eat your General Tso’s. Be warned: Don’t get too high. Being high and hungover is not fun.

Hair of the dog

This is probably the most well known cure. It’s also the dumbest unless you don’t have anything productive to do the rest of the day. I mean seriously, if you wake up and start drinking again you’re just adding fuel to the fire. Sure you’ll feel better because you’re drunk again. As soon as you stop drinking you’re back to square one again. So avoid this tactic unless you plan on drinking and watching football all day anyway.

The pick me up concoction

I learned this one working the Sunday brunch shift at Applebee’s, so listen up food servers and bartenders. take a coffee cup and fill half full with coffee. Add about 5 packets of sugar and stir. As soon as you’re done stirring go to the soda fountain and fill the cup the rest of the way with coke. You have to drink the entire thing immediately or it will foam all over the place. One of these every hour or so will help you get through the shift without slapping the shit out of the lady who keeps asking for condiments one by one

Go to the gym

Ok. You’re hungover. Why? Because your body is full of toxins. It’s time to evict those dirty little bastards. Make your way to the gym and find an open treadmill. Pick a moderate pace and you’ll start sweating almost instantly. 20 minutes should have you feeling like a champ. Oh, DO NOT FORGET TO BRING A WATER BOTTLE AND DRINK IT WHILE YOU RUN. As funny as it would look, you don’t want to pass out from dehydration on a treadmill.

So there you have it. The 8 best hangover cures I know of. If you know of any good ones I should try then by all means outline them in the comments section. I’ll do my best to try each one and review it in a “user submitted hangover cures” post.

How They Hack Your Website: Overview of Common Techniques

2008-11-21T09:45:00.000+08:00

We hear the same terms bandied about whenever a popular site gets hacked. You know… SQL Injection, cross site scripting, that kind of thing. But what do these things mean? Is hacking really as inaccessible as many of us imagine; a nefarious, impossibly technical twilight world forever beyond our ken?

Not really.

When you consider that you can go to Google right now and enter a search string which will return you thousands of usernames and passwords to websites, you realize that this dark science is really no mystery at all. You’ll react similarly when you see just how simple a concept SQL Injection is, and how it can be automated with simple tools. Read on, to learn the basics of how sites and web content management systems are most often hacked, and what you can do to reduce the risk of it happening to you.

SQL Injection

SQL Injection involves entering SQL code into web forms, eg. login fields, or into the browser address field, to access and manipulate the database behind the site, system or application.

When you enter text in the Username and Password fields of a login screen, the data you input is typically inserted into an SQL command. This command checks the data you’ve entered against the relevant table in the database. If your input matches table/row data, you’re granted access (in the case of a login screen). If not, you’re knocked back out.

The Simple SQL Injection Hack

In its simplest form, this is how the SQL Injection works. It’s impossible to explain this without reverting to code for just a moment. Don’t worry, it will all be over soon.

Suppose we enter the following string in a Username field:

’ OR 1=1

The authorization SQL query that is run by the server, the command which must be satisfied to allow access, will be something along the lines of:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ‘USRTEXT ’
AND password = ‘PASSTEXT’

…where USRTEXT and PASSTEXT are what the user enters in the login fields of the web form.

So entering `OR 1=1 — as your username, could result in the following actually being run:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ‘’ OR 1=1 — ‘AND password = ‘’

Two things you need to know about this:
[‘] closes the [username] text field.

‘’ is the SQL convention for Commenting code, and everything after Comment is ignored. So the actual routine now becomes:

SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = ” OR 1=1

1 is always equal to 1, last time I checked. So the authorization routine is now validated, and we are ushered in the front door to wreck havoc.

Let’s hope you got the gist of that, and move briskly on.

Brilliant! I’m gonna go hack me a Bank!
Slow down, cowboy. This half-cooked method won’t beat the systems they have in place up at Citibank, evidently.

Full Body Workout Routine Not Only Builds Muscle But It Torches Fat … in Less Than 60 Minutes.

2008-10-13T11:11:00.001+08:00

Can you spare 60 minutes, three times a week?

If the answer is “yes” I have the perfect workout routine for you: A “Full Body Workout” program that will get you in-and-out of the gym in less than an hour, will amp up your metabolism for the next 48 hours and — after about a month — will give you noticeable improvements not only in your strength, but also your physique.

Oh, and expect to drop some body fat in the process.

Why A Full Body Workout?

Full body workouts are probably the single most under-utilized workout routines in the gym.

Regardless of your experience level or existing strength, working your entire body in a single session is not only challenging, but an extremely effective way to build muscle, strength and even burn fat in the process. Even experienced bodybuilders can reap the benefits of switching to a full body workout, especially if they’ve been on a split routine plan for an extended period of time.

Before we actually take a look at a full body workout routine, let’s quickly discuss some of the advantages of working your entire body in a single session and the basics you need to know about before getting started.

The Benefits of Full Body Workouts

There are a number of benefits to performing full body workouts, including:

Better core development
Less overall time in the gym
Improved recovery intervals
Reduced risk of overtraining
Greater training frequency per muscle group

10 Rules For An Effective Full Body Workout

Before you jump into full body workouts, there are a few of rules that you need to follow, especially if you are used to higher-volume, higher-frequency split routines:

Rule #1: Perform only one exercise per muscle group.

This is the hardest rule for most experienced trainees to follow, since you will probably be used to performing 2-3 exercises for each muscle group as part of a traditional split routine. However, because you will be working out your entire body, not just 2-3 muscle groups, it’s critical that you choose one exercise per muscle group on this plan.

Rule #2: Perform a different exercise for each muscle group each workout.

For example, if on Monday you performed barbell bench presses for your chest, on Wednesday, you’ll perform incline dumbbell chest presses. By choosing a different exercise each workout segment, you’ll work the muscle in slightly different ways, and from different angles. This will contribute to better overall strength and development.

Rule #3: Do not perform more than three sets of any given exercise per muscle group (you can perform one additional light warmup set, however.)

Again, if you are used to high volume workouts with lots of sets, you may be tempted to perform more than three working sets per exercise, per muscle group.

Don’t.

The goal here is maximum intensity during the three working sets, not to maximize volume. By the end of the three workouts each week, you’ll find that you’ve either matched your split volume in terms of overall sets, or even increased it. And because you aren’t fatigued from previous exercises targeting that muscle group (as can be the case with split routines), you’ll likely find that you are able to lift more weight with a full body routine than with a split.

Rule #4: Ditch the Machines.

Most weight or resistance machines isolate muscle groups, which is the opposite of what you are aiming for with a full-body workout.

Other than the Smith Machine or leg press machine, stick to free weights. Cable machines — especially Free Motion machines – are fine for some exercises, and you’ll see them included below.

This workout can be adapted to machines, but to get the maximum benefits of this particular full body workout plan, you’ll want to use free weights — equipment like dumbbells and barbells and some body weight machines like pull-up bars or chin-up stations, parallel bars for dips, etc.

Rule #5: Do not perform this routine two days in a row.

Because you are working every muscle group each workout, full body routines can put additional stress on your central nervous system and muscles. Resist the temptation to perform this workout two days in a row. Give yourself at least 48 hours rest and recovery time between each full body workout.

Rule #6: Choose compound exercises.

Again, the goal of a full body workout is to optimize your time in the gym, maximize the number of muscles you recruit and build core stability. With the exception of bicep and triceps, avoid isolation exercises and instead focus on compound, multi-joint movements — things like dips, presses, squats, etc.

Rule #7: Use a weight that allows you to perform between six and eight reps.

This plan can be modified to target strength (lower reps, higher weight) or endurance (reps in excess of 15), however, initially the goal is to build both strength and muscle size.

Keep your reps between six and eight per set, which will build a good foundation. Later, if you want to substitute a higher or lower rep day, that’s fine. But for the first 4-6 weeks, focus on keeping your reps in the strength and hypertrophy range.

Rule #8: Eat Right.

Pay special attention to your pre- and post-workout meals. Full body workouts are intense and require extra energy to keep your workout fueled up. Make sure to eat a balanced pre-workout meal with plenty of protein and slow digesting, complex carbs. Follow-up your workout immediately with a fast digesting protein like whey and some simple carbs to aid in recovery.

Rule # 9: Minimize rest time between exercise sets.

With this full body workout, you’ll be working out eight major muscle groups with one exercise for three working sets each. In order to get through the entire routine in under an hour, you’ll need to keep moving. This means limiting your rest time between sets to no more than 60 seconds, or ideally, performing an exercise for a different muscle group in-between sets (a super set.)

For example, if you just completed a set of barbell chest presses, instead of resting on the bench for 60 seconds, go immediately to the pull-up station and perform a set of pull-ups for your back and then return to the bench for your next chest set. If your gym is particularly busy and you’re afraid of losing your place on the weight equipment, this may not be practical. In that case, opt for the shorter rest period.

By super-setting with other exercises between sets or limiting your rest periods, you’ll keep your heart rate up (good for fat burning) and get through this challenging workout in under 60 minutes.

Rule #10: Watch the order of your exercises

Because full body workouts strength train all of your major muscle groups, as well as many of the smaller, more easily fatigued supporting stabilizer muscles, you need to pay attention to the order that you perform the exercises.

For example, you generally want to avoid working smaller muscle groups like triceps and biceps early in your workout, since you’ll rely heavily on them to assist with your larger, higher-weight movements like chest, back and shoulder exercises.

If you perform tricep or bicep exercises first in your workout, the smaller muscles will be fatigued, limiting the amount of weight you can move during pressing or pulling exercises. Also, leave ab and lower back exercises (like back extensions) until after you’ve performed heavier leg exercises like squats or deadlifts. Both of these exercises require a great deal of core stability, and if your ab and lumbar muscles are fatigued, they can limit the effectiveness of leg exercises, as well as increase the risk of injury.

Rule #11: Don’t Be Afraid To Change It Up

That said, it’s not a bad idea every now and then to change up the order that you perform certain exercises.

While it’s still a good idea to keep tricep, bicep and core exercises toward the end of your workout, changing the order that you perform your larger movements like chest and shoulder presses can help you break plateaus.

For example, performing shoulder presses before chest presses, when your triceps are fresh, will often allow you to move more weight on shoulder exercises than when you perform them after your bench press. However, expect your bench to be more challenging, since your triceps and front delts (shoulders) will be more fatigued from the earlier shoulder presses.

Within the larger movements, it’s a good idea to change up the order ever couple of weeks — not just to keep things fresh, but to ensure that you are always challenging your muscles as fully as possible.

The full body workout routine I’ve put together below is set up to take the role of stabilizer and assistor muscles into account. So at least initially (the first four weeks), try to stick with the order I’ve provided. Below the workout, I’ve provided some suggestions on ways you can change out the order without dramatically impacting your overall performance during the workout.

Don’t Forget Your Exercise and Training Log!

To get the most out of this — and any workout — keep track of your progress with an exercise log. Increasing strength, mass and muscle endurance requires you to gradually increase the weight, reps and volume (sets) each successive workout to keep your muscles challenged and growing. Because this particular full body workout routine fixes your sets at three, progression will primarily be a function of increasing reps within the 8-10 range, as well as making slight increases in weight week-over-week.

To accomplish this, you’ll need to know how much you lifted in your last workout, as well as the reps. The only way to be sure is to write it down. Please don’t skip this step. Not keeping track of performance in the gym is one of the primary reasons people don’t progress in their workout routines and fail to hit their fitness goals. Read this article on why you should keep an exercise log for more background.

So let’s get to the actual workout.

The Answer Fitness 60 Minute Full Body Workout

Unless otherwise indicated, for all exercises use a weight that causes you to “fail” between 8-10 reps per set. Perform 5 minutes of light cardio and stretching prior to the routine. Also, you can perform one light-weight warm-up set (not reflected in the sets in the routine below), and three working sets for each exercises.

Workout #1 (Day One) Exercises

Barbell Chest Press: 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Pull Ups (Can be performed on a pull-up station with assist or a traditional pull-up bar): Perform as many pull-ups as you can for 3 sets.
Standing Military (Barbell or Dumbbell) Shoulder Press: 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Barbell Squat: 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Seated Calf Raise: 15 Reps for 3 Sets
Dumbbell Bicep Curls: 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Tricep Bench Dips: Perform as many dips as you can for 3 sets.*
Back Extensions: One Set of 15**
Swiss/Stability Ball Ab Crunches: 20-25***

Rest and Recover for at least 48 hours.

Workout #2 (Day Two) Exercises

Upright Rows (Dumbbell or Barbell): 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Lying Leg Press: 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Seated Calf Press (Performed on Leg Press Machine): 15 Reps for 3 Sets
Reverse Bicep Curls (Palms down): 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Lying Tricep Dumbbell Extensions (”Skullcrushers”): 8-10 Reps for 3 Sets
Back Extensions: One set of 15 **
V-Crunches/Jack-Knife Sit Up (Abs): Perform as many as you can for 3 sets.***

* As it becomes easier to perform dips with your body weight, add additional resistance by holding a light dumbbell between your feet (in the case of parallel bar dips), or have someone place a light plate across your legs on bench dips.

** Increase resistance on back extensions by holding a light plate or dumbbell over your chest during the movement.

*** Increase resistance progressively during ab crunches by holding a plate or dumbbell across your chest. For hanging leg raises/Roman Chair leg raises or V Crunches, place a light dumbbell between your feet.

Workout and Full Body Exercise Notes

A few notes about this workout and the exercises I’ve chosen:

First, you’ll notice that I’ve thrown in a few isolation exercises for the biceps and triceps. These are optional. You will work out both of these muscles by performing larger compound pressing and pulling exercises like bench presses, shoulder presses, rows and pull-ups.

However, I recognize that many people take a certain amount of pride in having great “guns” or if shapely arms are important to you and you are able to still get through the workout in 60 minutes, go ahead and include them.

I’ve also included a few exercises that are performed on cable machines. I’m actually a big fan of cable machine work, because I’ve found that the constant tension cables provide can be really beneficial for strength, coordination and overall development. And because you still have to balance the cable against resistance and can “course-correct” your movements, you can enjoy many of the same benefits of free weights.

In all cases, you can substitute the corresponding free weight version of the cable exercises if you don’t have access to cable machines or prefer to workout with dumbbells and barbells.

In terms of calfs, I’ve used the seated calf raise machine and Smith Machine because it allows you to focus on going heavier than you would be able to do with a dumbbell or barbell calf raises. If you don’t have access to a Smith Machine or Calf-Raise Machine, you can perform these with free weights as well. They will be slightly more challenging, however, from a balance perspective, so you’ll probably have to lighten up.

For abs and lower back, I’ve provided three ab exercises that will ensure that by the third workout, you’ve worked out both your upper and lower abs. I haven’t included any oblique work, but you could substitute an oblique exercise in for the V-crunches/Jackknifes.

Your lower back will get worked out in nearly all of the large compound movements, especially deadlifts and bent-over rows (and to some degree, squats and standing military presses.) However, performing a set of back extensions each workout can help improve lower back stability and actually increase your performance in bent over rows and deadlifts.

Don’t perform this exercise on the machine that you strap yourself into — instead use the back extension equipment that gyms usually have in the free weight area. Again, this exercise is optional.

15 Things You Didn't Know About Coffee

2008-09-30T11:11:00.000+08:00

Coffee's good for you. Coffee's bad for you. You've seen the studies and heard the comments. So, which is it, really? That's still up in the air. It seems that coffee, like most things in life, is fine in moderation. It only becomes a problem when people can't seem to wrap their minds around the idea of what moderation actually means. Some studies even say the more you drink the better, and almost all studies have shown that there are many more benefits than dangers to a lot of coffee drinking. There are some interesting facts about coffee, though, that we bet you didn't know. Here are just a few of them:

Health Benefits:

• Coffee can lift your mood, make you happier, and make you feel better. It alleviates depression.

• Have a headache? Drink a cup of coffee. It's been shown to help people get rid of their headaches.

• People who drink coffee have less colon cancer than people who don't. That's a big deal, especially if you have a family history of cancer.

• Parkinson's disease has also been shown to be reduced by drinking coffee.

• Coffee drinkers have lower rates of Type II diabetes, and that's an especially important finding since diabetes is becoming more prevalent today.

• Gallstones and cirrhosis of the liver – both lowered by drinking coffee.

• Coffee can protect your teeth from cavities.

• If you have asthma, drinking coffee can help manage your condition and might help you stop an attack if you don't have your medication available.

• One of the biggest benefits? People who smoke or drink alcohol get protective benefits from drinking coffee and have lower rates of liver problems and heart disease.

Other Uses:

• Coffee can be used to dye paper and fabrics. If you put the beans in hot water their color will start to come out. You can use that water to dye fibers.

• If you need a good facial scrub, you can coarsely grind some coffee beans and use them to scrub your face. They have great exfoliating properties.

• If you've been preparing food and your hands smell like it, rub some coffee beans between your hands for a few seconds; you can also suck on a coffee bean to freshen and clean your breath, no matter what you've been eating.

• Have a garden? Coffee makes great compost if you don't use it in excess, and sprinkling coffee grounds and orange peels around plants will keep cats from bothering the plants or using the garden as their personal litter box.

• Greasy pans can be cleaned with the left over ground beans that you used to exfoliate and scrub your face.

• You can also use coffee beans, placed in a bowl in your refrigerator, to get rid of food smells that might accumulate in there.

• These are just a few of the many uses for coffee. Drink it for your health, and use it for all kinds of other things. Coffee has lots of great uses! Experimenting with it can give you even more great ideas about how to use your coffee to improve your life in a lot of ways. It's not just for drinking anymore.

8 hacks to make Firefox ridiculously fast

2008-09-29T16:11:00.001+08:00

Firefox has been outperforming IE in every department for years, and version 3 is speedier than ever.

But tweak the right settings and you could make it faster still, more than doubling your speed in some situations, all for about five minutes work and for the cost of precisely nothing at all. Here's what you need to do.

1. Enable pipelining

Browsers are normally very polite, sending a request to a server then waiting for a response before continuing. Pipelining is a more aggressive technique that lets them send multiple requests before any responses are received, often reducing page download times. To enable it, type about:config in the address bar, double-click network.http.pipelining and network.http.proxy.pipelining so their values are set to true, then double-click network.http.pipelining.maxrequests and set this to 8.

Keep in mind that some servers don't support pipelining, though, and if you regularly visit a lot of these then the tweak can actually reduce performance. Set network.http.pipelining and network.http.proxy.pipelining to false again if you have any problems.

2. Render quickly

Large, complex web pages can take a while to download. Firefox doesn't want to keep you waiting, so by default will display what it's received so far every 0.12 seconds (the "content notify interval"). While this helps the browser feel snappy, frequent redraws increase the total page load time, so a longer content notify interval will improve performance.

Type about:config and press [Enter], then right-click (Apple users ctrl-click) somewhere in the window and select New > Integer. Type content.notify.interval as your preference name, click OK, enter 500000 (that's five hundred thousand, not fifty thousand) and click OK again.

Right-click again in the window and select New > Boolean. This time create a value called content.notify.ontimer and set it to True to finish the job.

3. Faster loading

If you haven't moved your mouse or touched the keyboard for 0.75 seconds (the content switch threshold) then Firefox enters a low frequency interrupt mode, which means its interface becomes less responsive but your page loads more quickly. Reducing the content switch threshold can improve performance, then, and it only takes a moment.

Type about:config and press [Enter], right-click in the window and select New > Integer. Type content.switch.threshold, click OK, enter 250000 (a quarter of a second) and click OK to finish.

4. No interruptions

You can take the last step even further by telling Firefox to ignore user interface events altogether until the current page has been downloaded. This is a little drastic as Firefox could remain unresponsive for quite some time, but try this and see how it works for you.

Type about:config, press [Enter], right-click in the window and select New > Boolean. Type content.interrupt.parsing, click OK, set the value to False and click OK.

5. Block Flash

Intrusive Flash animations are everywhere, popping up over the content you actually want to read and slowing down your browsing. Fortunately there's a very easy solution. Install the Flashblock extension (flashblock.mozdev.org) and it'll block all Flash applets from loading, so web pages will display much more quickly. And if you discover some Flash content that isn't entirely useless, just click its placeholder to download and view the applet as normal.

6. Increase the cache size

As you browse the web so Firefox stores site images and scripts in a local memory cache, where they can be speedily retrieved if you revisit the same page. If you have plenty of RAM (2 GB of more), leave Firefox running all the time and regularly return to pages then you can improve performance by increasing this cache size. Type about:config and press [Enter], then right-click anywhere in the window and select New > Integer. Type browser.cache.memory.capacity, click OK, enter 65536 and click OK, then restart your browser to get the new, larger cache.

7. Enable TraceMonkey

TraceMonkey is a new Firefox feature that converts slow Javascript into super-speedy x86 code, and so lets it run some functions anything up to 20 times faster than the current version. It's still buggy so isn't available in the regular Firefox download yet, but if you're willing to risk the odd crash or two then there's an easy way to try it out.

Install the latest nightly build (ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/), launch it, type about:config in the address bar and press Enter. Type JIT in the filter box, then double-click javascript.options.jit.chrome and javascript.options.jit.content to change their values to true, and that's it - you're running the fastest Firefox Javascript engine ever.

8. Compress data

If you've a slow internet connection then it may feel like you'll never get Firefox to perform properly, but that's not necessarily true. Install toonel.net (toonel.net) and this clever Java applet will re-route your web traffic through its own server, compressing it at the same time, so there's much less to download. And it can even compress JPEGs by allowing you to reduce their quality. This all helps to cut your data transfer, useful if you're on a limited 1 GB-per-month account, and can at best double your browsing performance.

Crack/Keygen Sites That Are Safe To Use

2008-09-08T15:33:00.004+08:00

Blindly searching the web for cracks & keygens is about as smart as using Limewire to search for antivirus software - something not well-advised. Undoubtedly and unfortunately, the number of crack sites with overtones of a malicious agenda heavily outweigh sites that just want to serve up the honest goods. Having said that, there actually are quite a few creditable ‘crack’ sites that won’t try to bombard you with full-screen popup ads, or commandeer your computer into a spam-loving Kraken or Srizbi Botnet army. We’ve done the hard work for you, and present a list of "clean" crack sites for all the latest warez.

Be aware that the site reviews herein only include information about each site, not the contents of the ‘cracks’ themselves. Always use a reputable antivirus and antispyware program on cracks & keygens before using them.

Our Recommendation: Due to security flaws and exploits, avoid using Internet Explorer when browsing potentially harmful websites (such as any of these on the list) - use Firefox instead. Better still, for added safety use these two Firefox add-ons: NoScript and AdBlock Plus. Sorry, but you’ll have to copy/paste the links into your Browser window - I don’t wish to be a “known associate” of most of these sites.

Recommended (Clean) Crack Sites

While these websites are deemed adware/malware free, always be sceptical of their "affiliate links" to other crack sites. Stay within each sites’ listings and avoid external links which can be dangerous. Otherwise, these sites listed below are a good resource for cracks, serials and keygens.

Malware / Spyware ? NOPopup Advertising ? NO

www.smartserials.com

www.keygenguru.com — Popular site with hundreds of thousands of results.

www.serialkey.net

www.zcrack.com

www.subserials.net

www.serialportal.com

supercracks.net

www.serialcrackz.com

www.serials.be

www.cracktop.com

www.cracksfm.com

www.cracklib.net

www.crackdb.org — The site itself is safe, however; many affiliate links are on the ‘do-not-visit’ list. When searching, skip past the first results (with the prices).

Crack Sites with Adverstising/Popups

These lower-risk sites won’t attempt to infect your computer with (too much) malicious code; however, you’ll pay the price with unavoidable full-page ad popups and advertising tracker cookies. Use at your own discretion.

Malware / Spyware ? NO.Popup Ads ? YES - sometimes excessively.

www.greatcracks.com — If you can handle excessive full-page ad popups, then give ‘em a whirl. Otherwise, stick to a more reputable site. Uses the "clicksor" ad network, which includes ad browser ‘cookies’.

serials.ws — You’ll find a great selection of serials, although you’ll be faced with in-browser popups and the "clicksor" cookie - however, Firefox will block the popups. Avoid any and all ‘affiliate links’ contained within, and avoid clicking on the advertisements.

keygen.ws — Full-page ‘clicksor’ popup ads welcome you at every turn.

www.easycracks.net — You’ll have to sell your soul for every ‘crack’ you get with a full-page popup ad for each. Avoid if possible.

cracksearch.ws — Same as above. Watch out for bad affiliates in the search results, although some are OK.

cracks.vg — You’ll suffer through a minimum of 2 different full-page popups (not including the ones that were blocked by Firefox) to get to each crack.

download-crack-serial.com — While both AVG and McAfee don’t recommend this site, we found no visible threats. Cracks were easy to download, with no popup ads or adware loaders (and none blocked in Firefox, either).

Malicious Crack Sites To Avoid

Avoid these websites at all costs - many contain some form of unwanted drive-by download. Some are classified as ‘database websites’ (i.e. aggregators) that link the cracks (sometimes through site searching) to more menacing sites.

newcracks.net — Newcracks offers a variety of annoyances such as third-party cookies, adware/spyware, browser exploits - not to mention a plethora of trojans in the downloads.

cracklooker.com — Cracklooker in itself isn’t a direct threat; however, they don’t host any cracks themselves, and search queries will direct users to sites that should be avoided.

astalavista.ms (or any ‘astalavista’ domain or variant thereof) — Same as above. Searching on Astalavista will display results from sites that should not be visited. Best to avoid. Other Astalavista domains are even more dangerous.

crack.ms — Browser exploits and hijacks, popups, trojans, backdoors - you name it, it’s here.

thebugs.ws — Contains some very harmful affiliate links.

needcrack.us — McAfee says, "When we browsed this site, we found direct links to an address that made unauthorized changes to our test PC." Marvelous.

cracksearchengine.net — Not a direct threat (it’s a crack meta-search site) that aggregates search queries from less reputable sites. Clicking on search results can be harmful.

anycracks.com — Makes unauthorized changes to the PC. Marked as an ‘exploit server’.

mscracks.com — The works! Ad popups, browser hijacking, trojans in the files and bad affiliate links.

keygen.in — Same as above.

Dailykeys.com — Bad affiliate links and files are purposely infected with trojans/virii.

bestserials.com — Even Google confirms that "this site may harm your computer".

crackfound.com — Ad popups and bad external links.

cracks4u.com — Affiliate links are on the bad list. Trojans and other malware are purposely added to the crack files. Avoid!

getcracks.com — Same as above.

keygen.ms — This site itself is harmless (aside from some popups); however, the actual crack files are linked on unscrupulous sites whereby an entire gamut of problems can arise.

crackhell.com — Their in-site search links to warezdownloads.com (not a good sign), and most of the affiliate links (which take up the better part of the homepage) should be avoided.

crackspider.net — Does not host any files - search results include those "Oem software" scams, or crack download links to abominable sites such as mscracks.com. Avoid.

crackzplanet (net/com) — Malicious executables are commonplace among the available cracks.

andr.net — Browser homepage hijacking and adware/popups.

asta-killer.com — Categorized as an ‘exploit server’ with active threats.

Your Task Manager was locked by Admin or its somehow get disable by trojan/worm or whatever, I got the easiest way to get it on any Windows OS I think.

Since gpedit.msc was not available with Windows XP Home Edition. Instead of typing "gpedit.msc" into the Run dialog box, type "REG add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v DisableTaskMgr /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f".

Nothing else needs to be done once you have typed this command and hit enter. This will make the same changes as gpedit, just more directly.

The Sex Fairy And Her 10 Lovemaking Secrets

2008-08-31T10:56:00.003+08:00

1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen, which makes hair shine and skin smooth.

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on during that romantic dinner.

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up. It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It’s more enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don’t need special sneakers!

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression. It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.

6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered. The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex crazy.

7 . Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world. IT IS 10 TIMES MORE EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.

8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away. Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.

9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the brain.

10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose. Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

Firefox 3 : Learn The Tips and Tricks Here!

2008-08-27T23:39:00.004+08:00

learn the basic tips and tricks that you can used to take the advantage of the various feature in Firefox 3.

Streamlined Firefox Layout

To provide maximum viewable space in Firefox you may wish to use a 'streamlined' Firefox layout - the difference between the default and the streamlined view is shown below:

As you can see, the streamlined view retains all the main functionality of Firefox, but reconfigures the layout to be as minimal as possible. Instructions are provided below:

1. Open only one instance of Firefox, go to the View menu, select Toolbars and untick the 'Bookmarks Toolbar' item.

2. If you have a Sidebar showing, under the View menu select Sidebar and unselect any items.

3. Under the View menu select Toolbars and then select Customize. Alternatively you can right-click on an empty spot on a toolbar and select Customize.

4. In the 'Customize Toolbar' box which appears, select Icons in the Show box (not 'Icons and Text', or Text). If you're running a lower screen resolution also tick the 'Use Small Icons' box.

5. Now remove any icon or element in the Firefox toolbar at the top of the browser which you don’t need. For example, drag and drop the Search box into the 'Customize Toolbar' box to remove it from the Firefox toolbar. You can also remove any unnecessary space fillers, such as the large white space filler at the top right of the Navigation toolbar. You can always re-add these elements at any time if you change your mind later on.

6. Now drag and drop each icon in the bottom Firefox toolbar up to the top toolbar, just to the right of the 'Help' menu item. This includes the large white Address Bar. The aim is to have everything on a single toolbar.

7. Insert any additional icons, separators or blank spaces you need from the selection shown in the 'Customize Toolbar' box into the relevant spots on the top Firefox toolbar. When finished, click the Done button.

8. Finally, go to the View menu, and under Toolbars unselect the 'Navigation Toolbar' as it should now be completely empty anyway.

You should now have a single Firefox toolbar at the top of your browser, complete with all the menu commands, relevant icons and the address box as pictured further above. This gives you much more vertical viewable space. If you need more viewing space, go to the View menu and untick the 'Status Bar' item as it is not vital, and provides a further bit of vertical viewable space. Obviously this layout may not suit everyone, and can be modified to suit your taste. However once you get used to it, it is extremely efficient and provides maximum viewable space in Firefox.

Tabbed Browsing

The most famous feature of Firefox is Tabbed Browsing, something which other browsers have eventually adopted. This is a feature which allows users to open up a link as a new tab within their current Firefox window, rather than opening up an entirely new Firefox window. The benefits of this are faster loadup times for pages opened as tabs, less overall system memory usage, less buttons for open instances of Firefox on the Windows Taskbar, the ability to load pages in the background while reading the current page, and the convenience of being able to switch back and forth between pages just by clicking their tab. Below are some tips on how to make better use of this feature:

To open any link as a new tab click your center mouse button while pointing to a link. If you don't have a center mouse button, hold down the CTRL key then left-click on a link to get the same result.
To force a link to open as a new tab in the foreground, hold down the SHIFT key and use the relevant methods above.
You can rearrange the order of open tabs by dragging and dropping them on the tab bar.
To close a tab quickly, click the center mouse button on the tab, or press CTRL+W or CTRL+F4 while viewing the tab. Or you can just click on the 'X' on the tab itself.
To reopen the last closed tab(s), right-click on the tab bar and select 'Undo close tab' or press CTRL+SHIFT+T.
To switch quickly between open tabs, press CTRL + Tab to go to the next open tab, or SHIFT+CTRL+TAB to go to the previous open tab.
To go to a specific open tab, press CTRL and a numberical key corresponding to that tab's position from the left. For example press CTRL+2 to jump to the second open tab.

In fact, if you click your middle mouse button on a range of things in Firefox, they will typically open up in a new tab. For example, click the middle button on the back or forward arrows on the Firefox navigation bar and the previous or next pages you've visited will open in a new tab. Middle-click on an item in your history or your Bookmarks and it will open in a new tab. Middle-click on the Homepage toolbar icon and your home page will open in a new tab.

Once a certain number of tabs are opened, each tab starts to shrink in width and at a certain point no more additional tabs can be shown on the current screen, though they will be opened in the background. New to Firefox 3, arrows will appear at either side of the tab bar, allowing you to scroll more gently through the tab list, rather than jumping from one screen of tabs to the next. There is also a small dropdown button at the far right of the tab bar which can be clicked to show a listing of all open tabs.

Full Page Zooming

New to Firefox 3, you can now zoom in and out of all elements of a web page, whether text or images, or both. This functionality can be accessed under the View menu, by going to Zoom and selecting 'Zoom In' or 'Zoom Out' to change the zoom level accordingly. If you just want to zoom in or out of the text only (i.e. you only wish to change the text size on a page), then tick the 'Zoom Text Only' item under the View>Zoom option. An easier way to access these functions on any page is to use the Control (CTRL) key in combination with the + (plus), - (minus) and 0 (zero) numerical keys. However the quickest way of all is:

To progressively Zoom In on a page, hold down CTRL and scoll up with the mouse scrollwheel.
To progressively Zoom Out of a page, hold down CTRL and scroll down with the mouse scrollwheel.
To Reset the page to its default zoom level press CTRL 0 (CTRL and Zero key).

This feature is particularly useful when viewing images, as it lets you zoom in or out of an image within the browser so you can look at relevant details without having to launch a separate image viewing application.

The Awesome Bar

New to Firefox 3, one of the major features which has proven to be very popular in Firefox 3 is the enhancement of the Address Bar, the place you normally see website URL addresses. Rather than simply displaying your location or allowing you to enter web addresses, or even conducting basic URL or web searches, as of Firefox 3 the Address Bar has been revamped to be much more functional, and is now nicknamed the "Awesome Bar".

To start with, you can type in any words or phrases, even partial words, and the Awesome Bar will instantly search your entire browsing History and Bookmarks to display any possible matches in a drop down box beneath the Awesome Bar. More importantly, the matched words/phrases can be in any part of the URL or page description, or any custom tags you've added to bookmarks. The more words you keep typing into the Awesome Bar, the more refined the search results will become.

When viewing the search results in the Awesome Bar, you will see not only the title of the web page, but also the favicon next to it, which makes identification easier, and you'll also see the site/page URL beneath the title as well. Importantly, you will also see at a glance whether it is already part of your bookmarks; it will have a yellow star next to it if it is - see the Bookmarks section on the next page for more details.

Of course all the previous Address Bar functionality is also present. For example if you simply type a word and press Enter in the Awesome Bar without selecting a search result, Firefox will usually attempt to find the closest matching web page for that word using Google's 'I'm Feeling Lucky' search by default and display the result. If you want to add the Search functionality of any web page directly to the Awesome Bar, simply right-click in any search box on a web page and select 'Add a keyword for this search'. If you want to jump quickly to the Address Bar/Awesome Bar at any time, press CTRL+L - this moves the cursor to the address bar and highlights all existing text in there.

The Top 10 Sexiest Olympic 2008 Moments

2008-08-27T16:20:00.001+08:00

The Beijing Olympics should have been renamed the "Babe-jing" Olympics this year as it was a hotbed of sexy. It's no wonder that the Olympics turn into a sex-fest once the athletes have stopped competing. In honor of their sporting achievements on and off the track (so to speak), we bring you the top 10 sexiest Olympic moments.

# 10 The President Taps Some Beach Volleyball Ass

The Olympics hadn't even started and President George W. Bush was doing his very best to boost team spirit, morale and to cement his legacy as Commander in Cheeks. His ass tapping of Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh must have helped. The duo went on to win gold.

# 9 Chinese Takes Female Wrestling Gold and Re-invents the Kama Sutra

China's Wang Jiao was so hungry for Olympic gold in the female wrestling she got a little dirty. She also inadvertently created some new moves, including the one above which has been dubbed the turkey baster. Word is she will be releasing her own version of the Kama Sutra and I can't wait.

# 8 Amanda Beard Strips (What's New)

Amanda Beard is always taking it off. At the beginning of the games she caused controversy for stripping nude for a PETA print commercial. Things didn't go so well for Amanda in the pool. She failed to qualify for the 200 meter breast stroke finals. One commentator noted "She went from centerfold to just plain fold." She's still hot.

# 7 The Great Fake Nude Swedish Crossbower

The web went crazy with nude photos of Olympic athletes. Amanda's Beard's old Playboy spread floated around, as were countless others. So you can imagine how everyone reacted when nude photos of ridiculously hot Swedish Olympic crossbower Sara Boberg hit the web. The only problem was the crossbow is not an Olympic event and Sara Boberg is not an Olympic athlete. So I suppose we're the winners in this one!!

# 6 How to Handle a Pole

Russian pole vaulter Yelena Isinbayeva smashed the world record at the Beijing Olympics clearing 5.05 meters and annihilating the competition. She also has an incredible booty. Watch it below over and over again. This girl has it all and she knows how to handle a pole.

# 5 The Ladies of Synchronized Swimming Get Close and Personal

Synchronized swimming may be one of the most boring sports ever to watch and that's if you can even call it one. The "sport" obviously knows it's in trouble and decided this year to turn the sex on with lots of open legs and lying on top of each other. It's hot and the closet thing to porn at the Olympic Games.

# 4 The Art that is Gymnastics

The intense rivalry between the US and China in gymnasts masked one thing...the incredible sexual tension between the girls. With all that jumping, doing splits and backbending, the girls cooled off the only way they new how – by kissing each other. This quickly turned the Gymnastics into much watch television. Best kiss of the Olympics was between Russian teammates, though the U.S.' Alicia Sacramone did get off scot free when an Italian Gymnast went in for the smooch. Alicia deflected in what has to be the Olympics' most awkward kiss.

# 3 The Great Water Polo Nipple Slip

Water Polo became a whole lot more titillating this Olympic Games after Greek player Christina Tsoukala accidently exposed herself during an early round match against Australia. The embarrassing picture was available on Getty Images and soon spread like crazy. There was one problem. Christina was only 17 and considered a minor in some states. Hers wasn't the only one. This one is totally legal.

# 2 Gymnasts Get Friendly

European Olympic gymnasts like to kiss each other. It's a tradition similar to how beach volleyball players hit each other on the ass. The gold for best kiss would have to be awarded to a pair of Russian teammates who locked lips after a successful uneven bar routine. This tradition obviously hasn't spread to the United States as Alicia Sacramone skillfully deflected a smooch from an Italian gymnast in what has to be the Olympics' most awkward kiss.

# 1 The Booties of Beach Volleyball

It doesn't get better than Beach Volleyball. This sport was why the Olympics and HD televisions were created. Who couldn't sit around all day look at hot women with perfect bouncing booties . The fact that the United States took home the gold just shows that TEAM USA literally kicks ass.

Top Ten Running Myths

2008-08-27T15:30:00.003+08:00

By Rick Morris

Running records are dropping like flies. Today’s elite distance runners are performing some remarkable feats and running some incredible times. It wasn’t long ago that most experts thought that running a sub four minute mile was impossible. Today the mile record is far below that mythical 4 minute barrier. Why do running records continue to fall? Why are today’s runners able to faster than ever before? The higher performance levels are partially due to improvements in nutrition and health care. But the lion’s share of the credit has to go to superior training techniques. Scientific research gives us new ways to train and have shown that some of the training techniques and beliefs of the past may not be the most efficient way to train. Even though studies have proven the newer techniques are superior, some of the old school beliefs and methods continue to hang on. They are the running myths of the past. Here are our top ten running myths.

Lactic acid is a waste product

This one just keeps hanging on. Even many running experts continue to believe that lactic acid is a fatigue inducing waste product. Nearly every running event I watch on TV has a running commentator telling us how lactic acid build up is causing the runners to go into “oxygen debt” and slow down. Nothing could be further from the truth. Lactic acid is not a waste product. It’s a valuable compound, produced at all times, that is used to produce energy to fuel your running. It doesn’t cause fatigue – recent research has even suggested that lactic acid acts to prevent fatigue caused by a reduction in cellular potassium.

Runners don’t need strength training

When I was a young high school runner, my coach wouldn’t let me strength train. I wanted to because I felt I was a more powerful runner with strength training, but the coach was adamant about it. He said it would slow me down – so no strength training. Still today some coaches and runners are holding on to the belief that strength training provides no benefits to runners. Researchers, runners and coaches have proven this one wrong. Strength training improves your injury resistance, your running strength, your muscle elasticity and your running economy. It makes you a better, faster, more efficient runner. Don’t worry about getting muscle bound -endurance training won’t allow it.

Tempo runs are the best way to improve your lactate turn point

For years, runners and coaches have believed that tempo runs – steady state runs of 20 minutes or more, at a pace that is about 15 to 20 seconds slower than your 10K race pace – were the best way to improve your lactate turn point. There is no question that tempo runs are valuable workouts. They improve your ability to run for long distances at a moderate pace. But, to improve your lactate turn point you need to run a pace that floods your body with high amounts of lactate. To do that you need to run at faster paces – paces at or faster than your 10K race pace. Performing workouts at your LT pace will make your body more efficient at dealing with both the physiological and mental aspects of running at LT pace.

Runners should drink as much fluid as possible

Hydration recommendations have been on a roller coaster ride. Many years ago we were told not to drink. Coaches thought that drinking during competition would cause cramps and decrease your performance. Thank goodness that crazy idea was abandoned before we lost more runners to heat stroke. Unfortunately the pendulum then swung too far the other direction. We were told to drink early and often. It was suggested that we should try to stay ahead of dehydration by drinking copious amounts of water and fluids. This brought up a new problem – hyponatremia. Hyponatremia is an imbalance of the fluid-electrolyte levels in your blood. Basically, your blood sodium levels plummet because of excessive fluid intake. New guidelines suggest drinking only when thirsty. Try to drink only enough to replace lost fluids and consume sports drinks containing sodium rather than plain water.

Static stretching should be done before you run

Static stretching is the most common form of stretching. It’s that gentle stretch that you assume and hold for 20 to 30 seconds. Static stretching has been one of the cornerstones of a pre run warm up for so long that it has become an ingrained part of running. Something we’ve been doing for so long must be correct –right? Wrong! We have been taught to do static stretching to warm up our muscles and to help avoid injury, but research has shown that not only does static stretching do little to avoid injuries; it may even decrease our performance levels. Scientific studies have concluded that static stretching before a run may reduce the ability of your muscles to store and return energy – causing a decrease in your running power. A better stretching routine would be to do dynamic drills such as high knees, heel kicks, leg sweeps and lunges before you run and save the static stretching for after your workout or race.

You must carbo load before a marathon

What’s a marathon without the traditional pre race carbo loading dinner? Those heaping plates of pasta the evening before your marathon have become an accepted part of marathon racing. But, do you need those huge helpings of pasta? Not really. Your pre race taper combined with your normal high carbohydrate helpings of food will get you ready for your race. You neither need nor want excessive portion sizes before your race. The large amounts of food can actually make you sluggish and tired on race morning.

Running mechanics aren’t important

Many runners believe that running form and mechanics are something you are born with and can’t change. They think that working on running mechanics is a waste of time. The truth is that proper running form can be learned and is also one of the greatest predictors of running performance. Proper running mechanics will make you a more efficient runner – it will allow you to run faster using less energy. Can you think of anything more important?

Higher mileage is always better

There’s no question in my mind that this one is a myth, but it’s really only a half myth. Higher mileage isn’t always better, but it may be under certain circumstances. There are a lot of runners out there that think the more miles they put in the better they will do. That is only half true. It’s true that more mileage will usually result in better performance, but only up to a point. Up to about 70 miles per week you will reap a lot of benefits from increasing your running volume. After 70 miles per week you still see some gains but they are much smaller. It’s like an improvement curve where the curve moves up steeply until you reach around 70 miles, and then it nearly flattens out. There are still small gains, but they are very small. Since most running injuries are caused by high running volume you need to decide if the small gains are worth the risk of injury and burnout. For most runners the answer is no. If your experience level, availability of time and level of fitness is high enough to withstand the physical and mental stress of very high mileage then it may be worth the risk for you, but for most runners going further than around 70 miles per week is counterproductive.

Classic periodization is the best training technique

Imagine doing only one workout, using the same pace and the same distance. Not only would you be bored to death, but your fitness would never improve. Your body would learn the workout and stop adapting. That is why we do various types of workouts during different times. That is the essence of periodization. It is dividing your training program into separate phases that are intended to train different energy and body systems. There are many types of periodization techniques. The most widely used and accepted is the classic technique of several weeks of long slow distance running followed by other periods of solely shorter, higher intensity runs. The theory behind classic periodization is to build a base of endurance in the initial weeks to support the higher intensity runs to follow. The problem with classic periodization is that it ignores the all important lactate turn point training, vVO2 max runs, hill training, neuromuscular workouts and goal pace running for long periods of time. You lose fitness in those systems and then must rebuild that fitness later on. For most of today’s runners a multi pace periodization technique in which you perform all types of training runs consistently on a year round basis is a more effective way to train. You maintain full fitness and simply emphasize different paces according to where you are in your training cycle and what your specific goal is.

Long slow distance running should dominate your training

Here’s another one of those pesky half myth things. There’s no question that the majority of all distance runners weekly mileage is composed of endurance training. But that should be in relation to total volume – not number of workouts. If the majority of your workouts are performed at an easy endurance pace you will be training yourself to run slowly. If you want to run at a fast pace you should practice at a fast pace. Try to include at least 3 quality workouts per week that are performed at between 10K race pace and 3K race pace. The faster paced running will improve your speed, power, strength and neuromuscular conditioning.

10 things you didn’t know you could do in Ubuntu

2008-08-13T10:51:00.006+08:00

Here are ten things that you (probably) didn’t know you could do in Ubuntu. All are taken from Ubuntu Kung Fu.

1. Create website links that automatically install software

Sometimes if you’re trying to help somebody ﬁx a problem, you’ll have to tell them how to install software. Yet for some Ubuntu newbies, even this can be confusing. The solution is to create a “software install” hyperlink within a web page (such as a forum posting), new email window, or Pidgin message window. To do this, simply click the “create link” button on the web page or within the email (the precise name of this will vary depending on the software/website used), and then type apt:packagename in the URL ﬁeld, replacing packagename with the precise name of the package as listed in Synaptic.

For example, let’s say you want to tell somebody how to install the thunar package, a lightweight file manager. If you’re creating an email with the instructions, ensure the new mail uses HTML (ensure HTML is checked on the Format menu), and then click Insert –> Link. In the URL ﬁeld, delete what’s there, and type apt:thunar. Don’t worry about the Description ﬁeld—leave it with the default contents that will probably mirror what’s in the URL ﬁeld. Then click the Close button. Note that there’s a slight bug in Evolution that means, for some reason, the hyperlink won’t actually appear as a link until you type some more into the new mail window, or click the Send button.

Perhaps it goes without saying that should you ever receive such a link in an email, or see one on a website, you should be very wary (especially if there are also additional instructions telling you to add a new software repository). It would be easy to disguise a malicious link as something seemingly benign, although you will always be prompted to conﬁrm the choice of software before installation.

2. Do stuff without touching the mouse

If you want to run an application, just hit Alt + F2 and then type the name of the program. If it needs to run with root privileges, just type gksu beforehand. For example, to run GNOME Terminal, you would type terminal. To run Gedit, type gedit.

If the program is command line, check the Run In Terminal box (use the Tab key to move from field to field in the dialog box and hit the Space to select a field). This will then open a terminal window and run the command, but be aware that the terminal window will then close as soon as the command has ﬁnished, so you won’t be able to inspect the output.

Want to browse to a file system location, but too lazy to grab the mouse and click the Places menu? Hit the forward slash (/), and then type the path into the dialog box that appears.

Want to rename a file but don’t want to use the mouse? Just ensure the file is highlighted (use the cursor keys to highlight it if necessary) and hit F2. Then type the new filename. To change the file extension too (which isn’t highlighted for deletion by default), just hit Ctrl + a and then type the complete new filename.

3. Instantly Search Google for Any Word or Phrase

Have you ever been reading a document and wanted to look up something in Google? In Firefox you can just highlight the word or phrase, right-click it, and select Search Google. However, what if you’re reading, say, a PDF ﬁle? Or a man page in a terminal window?

A very simple but effective solution is Googlizer, which you can install using Synaptic. Once installed, it’s added to the Applications –> Internet menu, so you’ll have to manually drag and drop it to a blank spot on the panel for quicker access.

How it works is simple. Highlight any text, in any application, and then click Googlizer’s icon to instantly search Google. If a Firefox window is open, a new tab will be added showing the search results. Otherwise, Firefox will be started, and the search results shown. Give it a try. It’s one of those simple things that might just change the way you work forever.

Googlizer can be personalized so that it searches the version of Google localized to your country, or even a non-Google search engine. To do this, you’ll need to discover the search URL for the engine you want to use. To do so, just perform a search using either the localized version of Google (for example, http://www.google.co.uk, if you live in the UK) or a different search engine. Then look at the URL for the part where your search term appears, and highlight/copy all that comes before.

If I search for Ubuntu Kung Fu using http://www.google.co.uk, I get the following URL for the search results page:

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=Ubuntu+Kung+Fu&btnG=Google+Search&meta=

…so I chop the end off, from the Ubuntu+Kung+Fu part onward, and I’m left with following, which I copy into the clipboard (highlight the text, and hit Ctrl + c ):

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=

Once you have the information, right-click the Googlizer panel icon, and select Properties. In the Command text field, add –url after googlizer, and then paste your Google URL. For example, I ended up with the following:

googlizer --url http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=

You can also change the icon if you want by clicking the icon preview at the top left of the dialog box.

When finished, click the Close button, and then test the new localized search.

Here are some URLs that will make Googlizer use other search engines—just add these addresses after the –url part of the Command text field, as described earlier:

Yahoo.com: http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=
Ask.com: http://www.ask.com/web?q=
Microsoft Live: http://search.live.com/results.aspx?q=

4. Create a File Delete Command That Uses the Trash

The rm command doesn’t have a trash facility. Once files are deleted, they’re gone forever. However, you can create your own trash command, which, when used at the prompt, will move files and/or folders to Ubuntu’s standard trash folder. The files can then be recovered, if desired, or permanently deleted in the usual way by emptying the Trash folder.

To add the new command, you’ll have to create an alias. You’ll need to edit the .bashrc file in your /home folder and add a line to the bottom, as follows:

Open a terminal window, and type gedit ~/.bashrc.
At the bottom of the file that appears, add the following new line:
```
alias trash="mv -t ~/.local/share/Trash/files --backup=t"
```
Save the file, close Gedit, and open a new terminal window to test your new command. To delete filename.doc, for example, you would type trash filename.doc. The new command will work on folders too, and multiple files/folders can be specified one after the other (for example, trash filename1.doc filename2.doc).

5. Repair Windows from Within Ubuntu

If Windows is refusing to boot, for whatever reason, you can try repairing the file system from within Ubuntu. Use Synaptic to search for the ntfsprogs package. Once it’s installed, unmount your Windows partition (if it’s mounted), and type sudo ntfsfix /dev/sda1 to check and fix the partition (assuming your Windows partition is /dev/sda1—likely if you installed Ubuntu in a dual-boot configuration on a computer already running Windows).

This tip is also useful if you see the “Cannot mount volume” error when attempting to access your Windows partition from within Ubuntu.

6. Dump the Text on a Virtual Console to a File

If you’re trying to fix a problem, you might want to capture the output of a command for reproduction on a website forum, along with the command you typed to get the results. If you’re working in a terminal window, you can cut and paste, but what if you’re working at a virtual console? If you simply want to capture the result of a command, just redirect the output:

ls > output.txt 2>&1

This will send both the output and error output (if any) of the ls command to output.txt. If you want to capture the command you typed and any other command-line detritus (including output), use the screendump command. The following will send everything currently on the current screen (command-line prompts included) to a text file called output.txt:

sudo screendump > output.txt

The command has to be issued as root because of permission issues, but the resulting file will be owned by you.

7. Instantly Hide a File or Folder

Any file or folder whose name is preceded with a period (.) is hidden from view in Nautilus and also won’t appear in the list of shell commands such as ls, unless the user specifically chooses to view hidden files (ls -a, or clicking View –> Show Hidden Files in Nautilus). So to hide a file or folder, just rename it (select it and hit F2), and then put a period in front of the filename. Gone. If the file doesn’t vanish, hit F5 to refresh the file listing.

To return the file to view, just remove the period.

If you want to make a file disappear from Nautilus’ view of files (including the desktop) but still appear in command-line listings, add a tilde symbol (~) to the end. For example, to hide partypicture.jpg, change its filename to partypicture.jpg~. To hide text file, change its name to text file~.

8. Print at the Command Line

You can quickly send text or configuration files to the printer using the lp command. For example, to print the /etc/fstab configuration file, you would type lp /etc/fstab. The formatting of the printed page is rough (no margins, and non-proportional font used), but it’s OK for quick hard copy viewing. If you want you can set a top page margins using the -o page-top= command option. The following will print the same file with a one-inch (72 pica) margin at the top:

lp -o page-top=72 /etc/fstab

Note that for the lp command to work, you’ll need to first make your printer the system default (even if it’s the only one attached). To do so, click System –> Preferences –> Default Printer. Select your printer, and then click Set Default. Then click Close.

9. Listen to MP3s when no GUI is running

So you’ve tweaked Ubuntu into a state of disrepair. Any hope of a GUI is a pipe-dream, at least for the moment. While you hack away fixing things, wouldn’t it be nice to have some music to console you at the console?

Just switch to an unused virtual console, login, and type sudo apt-get install vlc. VLC s a GUI media playback application normally used on the desktop, but it can also run with a text-mode interface—just start it with the -I ncurses command option (note that’s a capital I, not L). For example, to play back filename.mp3, I would type vlc -I ncurses filename.mp3. Multiple files can be specified one after the other, thus creating a playlist, or a wildcard can be used to playback all files in a particular folder (ie vlc -I ncurses ~/Music/*.mp3). Use the a and z keys to alter the volume.

If playback is still too quiet (or too loud), switch to another virtual console and type alsamixer. Hey, presto—primitive but useful text-mode faders. Use the left and right cursor keys to move between faders. Use the up and down keys to change the values. Hit Escape to quit.

10. Turn your desktop into your /home folder

Do you use your desktop as a dumping ground for files, and pretty much ignore your actual /home folder, which is where you should store things? If so, you might be interested in this tweak, which effectively makes Ubuntu use your /home folder for the desktop, instead of the actual /home/username/Desktop folder. Anything saved to the desktop, such as files/folders dropped there, will be placed in your /home folder. Additionally, anything in your /home folder will appear on the desktop.

To give this a try, start gconf-editor (hit Alt + F2 and type gconf-editor) and navigate to /apps/nautilus/preferences and put a check alongside desktop_is_home_dir. Then log out and back in again.

Remember that the contents of your desktop haven’t vanished. They’re still in the Desktop folder in your /home folder.

BONUS TIP! Quickly Set Wallpaper with One Click

The easiest way of setting your own picture as a desktop wallpaper is to click and drag the image to the desktop using the middle mouse button (if the image is already on the desktop, then click and drag it a few inches to the left/right). On most modern mice, the middle mouse button is the scroll wheel, which also doubles as a third mouse button.

On the menu that appears when you release the button, click Set as Background.

If that sounds a little too unorthodox for you (it can be hard to use the middle mouse button), you can also use Synaptic to install the nautilus-wallpaper package, which adds a simple Set as Wallpaper option to the
menu that appears when you right-click an image ﬁle. After installation, you’ll need to log out and then in again before the option becomes visible.

Create a Windows Daily Backup Script

2008-08-06T16:11:00.002+08:00

Posted in Administration Tutorials, Windows Tutorials by John Ward on the May 9th, 2007

This tutorial will show you how to use a simple Windows Batch file and the task scheduler to create an automated daily backup. We will use the date variable to backup the files into folders with the first three letters of the day as the folder name.

First you will need to open notepad. The easiest way is going to start > run and typing notepad.

We will use notepad to create are batch file. A windows batch file is a set of instructions that tells the computer what to do. All we really need to do is add the command to copy the folder that we want to backup. I have a folder called ‘test’ that I want to backup to a folder called ‘backup on a network drive which I have mapped as the x drive. It only takes one simple command to do that actual backup. (note: there is no | in the command next the the word date, that is just the cursors)

Now I will explain the command “xcopy c:\test\* x:\backup\%date:~0,3%\* /Y /Q /S”

The xcopy commands will copy files and folders. The syntax for the command is xcopy [source] [destination] [arguments]. Where source is the folder that you want to backup and destination is the backup on the network drive. The arguments tell xcopy how to handle certain situations. For my script I used /Y to suppress prompting when overwriting files. If you do not include this the script will ask you before copying each file, that wouldn’t be automated. /Q doesn’t display the file names while copying. /S copies directories and sub directories. You can find more arguments by opening the command windows and typing xcopy /?.

Where you see \%date:~0,3%\ is the name of the destination folder. If you didn’t want to change the name daily you could simple call it \backup\ or something like that. The %date% is a variable. If you type %date at the command line, you will get the current date and time output. The :~0,3 tells the command line to return the first three letters of that date (0-3) and trim off the rest.

Once you have made the changes that you nee, save the file as backup.bat

Now Open the Control Panel and select Scheduled Tasks

Now we want to add a new task so click the “Add Scheduled Task” button.

Click next and then browse. Locate the backup script you just saved and click open.

Select perform this action daily and then click the next button.

Select enter the time you want the task to run at in the start time box. Then make sure daily is selected and change the date to the day you would like this task to start running on.

Enter your password and click next. (note: if you do not have a password, you may have problems with the scheduled tasks running correctly. I recommend adding a password to your account, or setting up a separate account to run scripts.)

Click finish. Now we can test the backup script. Located the script in the scheduled tasks folder, Right click it and select run.

You should see the command window open. When the task is finished, browse to your backup folder and verify that the files have been copied.

8 Easy Firefox Tweaks for Super Fast Web Browsing

2008-07-02T10:17:00.003+08:00

Fast loading web pages while surfing the Internet may have more to do with your web browser settings and preferences than your Internet connection speed.

Try these easy Firefox tweaks and you’ll see that you’re surfing the Internet from 3 to 30 times faster!

To get started, open your Firefox web browser. In the address/location bar type "about:config" and then press your Enter key.

Tweak #1:
In the Filter bar type [network.http.pipelining]. Then, double-click on this line under Preference Name in order to change the value from false to true.

Tweak #2:
In the Filter bar type [network.http.pipelining.maxrequests]. Then, double-click on this line under Preference Name and change the value from 4 to a higher number anywhere from 10 to 30. I set mine to 30.

Tweak #3:
In the Filter bar type [network.http.proxy.pipelining]. Then, double-click on this line under Preference Name in order to change the value from false to true.

Tweak #4:
In the Filter bar type [network.dns.disableIPv6]. Then, double-click on this line under Preference Name in order to change the value from false to true.

Tweak #5:
In the Filter bar type [plugin.expose_full_path]. Then, double-click on this line under Preference Name in order to change the value from false to true.

Tweak #6:
In the Filter bar type [network.protocol-handler.external.ms-help]. Now, you are going to create a new Preference Name with an Integer Value. To do this, right-click on this line under Preference Name and select New, then Integer. In the New Integer value box type in [nglayout.initialpaint.delay] and click OK. Then in the Enter Integer value box type [0] (that’s a zero) and click OK.

Tweak #7:
In the Filter bar again type [network.protocol-handler.external.ms-help]. Now, you are going to create another new Preference Name with an Integer Value. To do this, right-click on this line under Preference Name and select New, then Integer. In the New Integer value box type in [content.notify.backoffcount] and click OK. Then in the Enter Integer value box type [5] and click OK.

Tweak #8:
In the Filter bar again type [network.protocol-handler.external.ms-help]. Now, you are going to create another new Preference Name with an Integer Value. To do this, right-click on this line under Preference Name and select New, then Integer. In the New Integer value box type in [ui.submenuDelay] and click OK. Then in the Enter Integer value box type [0] (that’s a zero) and click OK.

Now, close your web browser and restart it. You’ll see how much faster web pages are loading. I sure did.

Best News Ever - Avira recognises Internet Explorer as a trojan

2006-12-12T12:51:00.001+08:00

The virus scanner from the German software vendor Avira (known until the beginning of this year as H+BEDV) installed an update with a defective signature library that then declared Internet Explorer 6 to be the TR.Spy.Goldun.ML trojan. In light of that virus alarm, several uneasy users deleted Internet Explorer to rid themselves of the purported trojan.
