We went roaming around town today
, it’s (kind a) day off for me. I really like it when it’s his off because it always means that I have somebody to talk with and not just my computer and our tv
Haayzzz, lovin my life when hubby is around. Nga pala, we changed our cable tv provider from Baja to Directv. And right now, we don’t have any cable or tv connection and it’s a big deal.
We asked them to cut it off on the last day of this month but they said that they can’t do it on that day hence it’s sunday and they opted to do it this coming tuesday (Sept 2) hence it will holiday on monday and we agreed on it. So we thought that it was settled and I went ahead and scheduled the directv’s installation on the 1st of September (kita mo naman, directv people are working even on holidays unlike baja).
Sus, we were shocked when all of a sudden our cable connection went out today. Walanghiyang Baja, pinutol na pala…grrrrrr! They’re even so rude when Carlo called their office and asked them what happened. When my husband told them that one of their associate told us that they’re going to cut it off on the second of September and that they need to stick to it and put it back until the second, they just said that “we’re not in a hurry to put it back since you’re cutting off your connection, you need to wait for the available schedule”. Mga walanghiya talaga, sarap murahin..
Haay naku, wag na kayong mag-baja (if you have a service provider like this in your area), wala na ngang kwenta yung cable connection wala pang MODO yung mga tauhan nila.
I was so furious today kaya nagliwaliw na lang kami ni asawa ko…geeezz

U.S. stocks tumbled on Friday, led lower by tech shares after computer maker Dell warned that companies worldwide are cutting back on technology spending.
Nevertheless, the market managed to end August in positive territory as oil continued a sharp slide started in July.
On Friday, all three major indexes fell more than 1 percent, with the Nasdaq chalking up the biggest losses after Dell Inc’s comments sparked fears about weakness in the whole tech sector. Shares of Dell, the world’s second-largest computer maker, fell nearly 14 percent, and other tech shares such as International Business Machines Corp, also declined.

Like millions of motorists, Eric Hanson used a GPS unit in his Chevrolet TrailBlazer to find his way around. He probably didn’t expect that prosecutors would eventually use it too — to help convict him of killing four family members.
Prosecutors in suburban Chicago analyzed data from the Garmin GPS device to pinpoint where Hanson had been on the morning after his parents were fatally shot and his sister and brother-in-law bludgeoned to death in 2005. He was convicted of the killings earlier this year and sentenced to death.
Hanson’s trial was among recent criminal cases around the country in which authorities used GPS navigation devices to help establish a defendant’s whereabouts. Experts say such evidence will almost certainly become more common in court as GPS systems become more affordable and show up in more vehicles.

This is cool! A headset that is powered with a voice recognition and even responds in english is a must have if you are a cellphone addict.
It only recognizes english language commands right now yet this means that in the next few months it’ll be bilingual or can recognize more than 2 languages..
. Watcha think?
On Tuesday, BlueAnt Wireless launched the first headset that, by comparison, is clearly from Planet Earth. The $130 V1 headset recognizes spoken English commands, and responds, also in English.
It’s eerily like having an automated call center in your ear. It can’t do everything that a standard headset combined with a voice-recognizing phone can do, but it’s a useful advance for an industry that’s been focused on everything except ease of use.

Adobe announced major update for their photoshop element and one of its enhancement is for the user to be able to share the photo’s online and in mobile. Cool huh? I just notice that the mobile technology is taking off recently.
This means that we can expect for more addition of features and more enhancement in the next few months..
Adobe Systems has announced major updates to its Photoshop Elements suite of video- and photo-editing software, including online sharing and mobile-phone options. In beta now, the software is expected to be on retail shelves in early October.
Photoshop Premiere Elements 7 adds significant features to video editing, while Photoshop Elements 7 incorporates major enhancements to the photo-editing program. Mobile features cover only a limited number of phones.
Many Enhancements
Have too many grumpy-looking locals in the background of your shot of the Eiffel Tower? Elements 7 promises you can “scrub” unwanted elements from pictures with its new Scene Cleaner feature. Quick Fix tools whiten teeth, enhance colors, and soften details, among other things.
A powerful new Smart Brush allows users to assign repetitive tasks to the brush tool, then use it on multiple sections of a photo, like removing wrinkles.

Cool or not? I couldn’t decide because if I am the delegate, yay, my company can keep track in all my activities. Not unless these badges can be taken off during personal moments (like going to the bathroom to pee and etc). This is I think an experiment because the delegates agreed voluntarily.
Microsoft on Monday announced plans to track Australian delegates attending its annual Tech.Ed conference in Sydney next week using RFID tags embedded in conference badges.
The move comes months after 50 academics, researchers and students at the University of Washington began a social networking experiment, which has seen participants voluntarily tag themselves. The system records the location of tags every 5 seconds and publishes movements to a Web page.
In Australia, human-targeted deployments of RFID tags have largely been limited to state prison systems. ACT Corrective Services in April said it had commissioned U.S. RFID provider Alanco and NEC Australia to install a Wi-Fi-compatible inmate-tracking system within its walls.

There are a lot of new enhancement in wordpress recently, they just released a stable blog software and for sure those developers are working on the next update again.
I love and hate it at the same time. I love the enhancement because it means more stable blog platform but I hate it at the same time because they update the softwares in only a blink of an eye.
It hurts to blog owners who manually updates the software, it is surely ok for those who aren’t..for those that uses their control panel to update their software.
What’s your opinion on this issue?
