iPod Alarm Clocks

The iPod Alarm Clock is actually an iPod speaker. Setting up the Alarm Clock in your iPod, select your favorite playlist and you can extend â€œsnoozeâ€ up to nine minutes. It has the adjustable depth knob for all iPod generations. The iPod Alarm Clock may be the best replacement of the normal beep beep alarm clock because of its functions and its glossy traditional alarm clock design.

If you're receiving spam email every day, your email address is probably being harvested by the spambot or spam spider. It happens when you publish email address on your web page, although you're not going to make it a mailto email hyperlink but the @ sign is attracting them. The spambot are collecting email through your web page source and in order to defend your mailbox you should start work out on these file such as html, php etc.

One of the easiest way to protect your email is publish your email like yourname(a)domain(dot)com or yourname @ domain.com, but it is not user friendly for me as I need to modify the (a) to @, the (dot) or closing the spaces between the @ sign before I can send it out.

How To Uninstall Soholaunch And Fix pinEdit.php Not Found Issue

how to uninstall soholaunch completely from server

Just setting up my new web host and play around with the website builder under Fantastico - Soholaunch. Soholaunch is an online script for user to create or modify web page online. By using GUI editing, it is suitable for beginner who knows nothing of a html code. But if you can do more than a html editing, then I suggest to go for advance content management system - Joomla or Drupal. Why? Compare with Joomla or Drupal, Soholaunch is not a fully open-source script that you'll need to pay for more web template, plugins or extension to upgrade it to Pro version. Anyway, this post is to share the ~~freak~~ fix of Soholaunch on how to uninstall Soholaunch and solve the pinEdit.php not found issue.

Best Nap Gadgets

I believe this sleeping gadget is the best medicine for your insomnia. The ovary shape of "Transport" is design by AlbertoFrias and it is made of glass fiber, integrated with audio system, full spectrum of LED lighting systems and water mattress. Feel like you're back to mum's hug again. At USD10,000 ~ 12,000, it could save more in 10 years compare with your insomnia medicine fees.

Best Nap Gadgets

I'm still remembering the fun when swimming in the "ball pool" in Mc-D; however the pool is not large enough to fit me in now. The Napmosphere is not only a comfortable sleeping bag but fill up with small balls which you could find your most relaxing sleeping position. You can totally cover up yourself with Napmosphere and transform yourself into a giant larva. Great costume for Halloween huh?!!

Titanic DNA Alive From Debris

The Titanic DNA wristwatch is probably the world's most expensive timepiece with no inlaid diamonds or 18K gold. By using the coal that picks up from the debris of Titanic as a part material, it makes Titanic DNA become a legendary watch and sold for USD7, 800 ~ USD 17, 3100. The Titanic DNA manufacturer Romain Jerom from Geneva plans to build 2,012 pieces of "Titanic DNA" to commemorate the sinking of Titanic 100th anniversary in the year 2012.

So, which part is containing the DNA of Titanic? It was the black dial surface of the watch that painted with the combination of the coal. Oh, could it be Jack's charcoal? ;)

Update: They've spent or (better word) invest a lot of money for 1.5kg of 'DNA' from RMS Titanic (America).

How To Identify A Genuine Ink Cartridge

How good are you in identifying a genuine consumable part? Such as printer ink cartridges, ink tanks or toners? Nowadays, the recondition or counterfeit technology reaches 99% of similarity compare with a genuine part. This was not a new findings but I wish to share some tips with you for not being a victim of a counterfeit product.

I've brought the new Canon "Genuine" BC-03 ink cartridge from a local computer store two days ago. There is some gap in the printout and this is indicating that the new cartridge's print head has the manufacturer defeat. So I'm ready to get a new ink cartridge replacement at Canon Service Center in terms that the cartridge is still holding not less than 75% of ink. I'm shocked when Canon service personnel telling me that it was a 'recondition' cartridge because it fails for the genuine verification checks. Special thanks to Canon Marketing Sdn. Bhd. (Ipoh, Malaysia.) Mr. Leong, for providing such valuable information on how to identify a genuine consumable part.

Let's see what are the details that you can't find on a counterfeit ink cartridge.

Canon genuine BJ cartridge

The non-genuine security sticker is 99% perfect but it was easily exposed with Canon 'Handy Viewer'.

The security sticker used on genuine Canon products changes its design depending on the viewing angle. Additionally, the color changes to a bright, iridescent green when tipped to a horizontal position. With counterfeit products, neither the design or color will shift when viewed at different angles. -- Canon (Malaysia).
