I know most of you will not heed this advice, but KEYBOARDS CAN MAKE YOU SICK (how's that for tactfulness?). Germs live on your hands and fingers. When you type, many of them jump on to the Gateway MT3707 MT3711c Keyboard. When someone else types on your keyboard, those germs transfer to their fingers. Or when you later type on the same keyboard, those germs reconquer your fingers. Regularly disinfecting the keyboard can prevent this. Tips: * Some people actually wash the keyboard in a dishwasher. Don't attempt to clean a keyboard that way unless you're willing to risk losing the keyboard. If you do put a keyboard through the dishwasher, make sure the keyboard is completely dry before using it. This...

I am a scientist with over 300 inventions related to health, longevity and medicine. This newsletter installment is about rocket fuel that contaminates drinking water and what effect they have on your body. He's A Rocket Man The next stop on the train of water contamination is perchlorate. Commonly referred to as rocket fuel, perchlorate is used in the solid propellant of rockets, missiles, and fireworks. Really, nothing to top your morning Wheaties off better then some rocket fuel. Waste from the manufacturing and improper disposal of perchlorate is constantly being found in water and soil, and the occurrence of these findings has been steadily rising over the last few years. 26 out of 50 states...

The DREAD gun sounds very Star Trekie... in a good way. However, if it's electric it must have power - #1, and #2, what about EMP. An EMP device would be the logical counter device to this weapon. EMP damages electronics, i.e. things with computer chips in them. Electrical devices, like mom's mix master and dad's electric drill, will continue to operate. The Soviets designed against EMP by using old-fashioned tube electronics in their aircraft. Apparently EMP is a threat to the very small circuits of computer chips, bulkier devices can withstand them. The concept of recoil-less is interesting, but doesn't make sense. It can only be discussed in the terms of the reaction generated by a conventional...

Running your car on water and gasoline together sounds unreal. If water is not flammable, and in fact is commonly used to extinguish fire, how can it be burned along with gasoline or diesel fuel in an internal combustion engine? The answer is HHO gas. It's not the water itself being burned - that would be impossible, of course - it's the HHO gas you can produce from it. Commonly also named Oxyhydrogen, Aquygen, or Brown's Gas (after inventor Yull Brown who will be referred to below), HHO is a mixture of hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) in a ratio of 2-to-1. Hey, isn't it the same ratio that exists in water? That's right. Water (H2O) is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen with the same ratio. Through a...

APRIL 19, 1975 was a red letter day in the history of India's space program. It was on this day that the Indian Satellite Aryabhatta was successfully launched into the space.

Welcome to the world of classic Airsoft guns powered by gas instead of spring. They are one of the most sought after items among collectors. One such classic World War II pistol is the Cannon HG-196 Gas Airsoft Pistol. Its full metallic construction makes it a solid and a reliable machine. It will function for years to come. This metal gas airsoft pistol is non-blowback (NBB), which offers an excellent accuracy because the internal parts of NBB are stationary when the shot is fired. The only factor that can affect its accuracy would be the harsh trigger in NBBs. The double action trigger, however, ensures rapid firing. When you pull the trigger, the hammer hits the firing pin, which in turn...

Dental Handpiece Maintenance Guide I talk to dentists and hygienists I am finding varied methods of dental handpieces maintenance. It is my intention to offer my experience on dental handpiece maintenance and hopefully save you some money. First, always follow your manufacturers recommendations for dental high speed handpiece maintenance. Make sure your handpiece is used at the proper PSI, usually between thirty and forty PSI. If you run your handpiece at a higher pressure you will certainly cut the life of your bearings and the chuck. Also running your dental autoclave with the burr pulled out to gain extra reach will destroy the chuck and bearings very fast. Second, wash the outer casing with...

Gun powder also called black powder, is made of pyrotechnic composition which is an explosive combination of potassium nitrate, charcoal and sulfur that flames quickly and can produce a number of hot solids and gases that can be used as a propellant in fireworks as well as fire arms. Black powder guns are guns that are loaded with black powder. Similarly looks like the common guns that you see today where you put a bullet in and shoot. It is the number one way to shoot something. When you see a black powder gun, Civil War era can come into your mind where you think of the buckskin clad hunters. Most hunters prefer to use this since it is more accurate for long distance shots compared to the...

Pepper spray does in fact have a shelf life. The average shelf life of a pepper spray is typically around 3 to 4 years. Most defense sprays have an expiration date stamped on the canister. A pepper spray's effectiveness is derived mainly from its chemical compound of OC or Oleoresin Capsicum. OC is a natural chemical comprised of various hot pepper plants, hence the name Pepper Spray. Although the OC will not degrade over time, an expired canister may not spray as far as expected and in some cases the unit may fail to spray entirely. A spray that is kept beyond its shelf life has a potential for the aerosol propellant to leak out and render the spray less effective. Leakage is especially common in...

One of the biggest problems we hear about with the Xbox 360 is overheating. The Xbox 360 has a tendency to overheat for several reasons. Probably the biggest cause of the overheating is lack of proper ventilation around your console. If you have your Xbox game console in a cabinet, such as an entertainment center, with the door closed, you are much more likely to experience problems due to excessive heat generated inside the console. Some of the things you can do to help prevent this are to first of all make sure you Xbox console is positioned so that you have plenty of space all the way around it. You do not want the generated heat from the unit to be confined to the space directly around the...

Copyright (c) 2009 Red Apple Auctions LLC "One of a kind" auction items will always perform well in a fundraiser benefit auction. A potato cannon ... made by the school's beloved maintenance department ... in an all-boys Catholic school ... is a perfect example. What is a potato cannon? True to its name, the cannon is designed to propel a potato hundreds of yards. It is typically constructed of ABS pipe and uses a can of hairspray as the propellant to launch the potato. For obvious reasons, this is an item better suited to boys who live in wide open spaces and not in a city. Damage would no doubt ensue. (After looking at the cannon, one auction guest - a grown man - told me, "Oh, I could have some...

With the rising level of automobile production and its corresponding worldwide stocks based on the rapid industrialisation in Asia, Africa and Latin America plus the rising demand in Eastern Europe, the proportion of textiles in a motor car is increasing in response to more stringent comfort and safety needs in industrialised countries like the USA, Japan and Western Europe. Automobile textiles, which are non apparel textiles, are widely used in vehicles like cars, trains, buses, aircrafts and marine vehicles. Hence, the term automobile textile means all type of textile components e.g. fibers, filaments, yarns and the fabric used in automobiles. Nearly two third of the automobile textiles are for...

Every now and then, we hear about positive thinking and negative thinking. Positive thinking which is about setting your mind to the right direction by thinking and acting rightly. Negative thinking is about setting one's mind towards defeat, fear and failure. It is undisputable that an individual who thinks positively will actually locate his success route. But what are the 'raw materials' he'd need along with this roadmap to achieve? The raw materials are the empowerment tools or 'power' to positive thinking. They are VISION, MISSION and ACTION VISION A lot of people talk about vision but do not know what it actually is. Denotatively, vision is a vivid picture created by imagination. It could also...

Have you ever looked into your kitchen supply and cleaning agents? These are artificial substances, created from manufactured chemicals to do a certain purpose, which could be to clean, to disinfect, or for whatever purpose it was made. But could any of this stuff be addictive? You may find the answer surprising. Too much of anything is bad and that you could be addicted even to something commonly found in your household that you use in your daily life. Most of the household items that you own that could cause addiction do so through inhalation. Chemicals used from anything like aerosols or cleaning agents to solvent glue can be used to intoxicate the user and become an addictive substance. The...

I never really believe in bringing items with you as conversation starters. Well what do you know, it actually works! I experienced it myself. After a visit from the veterinarian I brought my puppy along to the grocery store to do some shopping. I couldn't believe it when complete strangers passed by and looked at us with eyes wide open and bright smiles. Some comments like "what a cute puppy" and " is it a he or a she?" Some people even went to the extent of going near me and patted my mixed poodle -terrier three month old puppy. I said to myself "wow , what a way to meet someone!" It was effortless. You don't have to risk rejection, muster courage, withstand dry mouth and weak wobbly knees...

There is science in music too. The excellent chemistry in science is manifested from the mixture of substances but in music it is through the blend of voices. Usually there are four voice groups in music i.e. the tenor (high male), bass (low male) soprano (high female), and alto (low female). This is a base to our study as this would help to see how a singing group is formed. When in close knit groups they don't really find it difficult forming members from the acapella groups. For the benefit of the readers I would let them know that an acapella group consists of members who don't use any instrument. These singers completely bank on their ability to produce good music. They horn on their god given...

Podcasting is all the rage in this day and age.  Small podcasters compete with the big boys and some become big boys themselves.  It takes an "edge" to get even a small market share due to the fierce competition. One such edge is by being able to produce "enhanced" podcasts simultaneously with your regular one.  This allows you the benefit of  pulling a portion of your traditional podcast listeners back to your website to view the enhanced version.   As a result, it allows you the opportunity to gain added revenue from exposure to advertising as well as other business ventures you may be involved with.  In turn this gives you a good launch pad for potential podcast sponsorship ("This podcast...

Wakeboarding is a different kind of extreme water sport. It is a combination of water skiing and surfing, where one literally has to ride the wake of a speeding boat and do certain manoeuvres. The fun and excitement in wakeboarding has to do with speed rush and the fact that it involves all these different kinds of moves, where wake boarders can fly, slide or jump to feel the rush. One such move or style is called a wakeboarding tantrum. When one executes this move, it is assumed that he has already mastered a certain level of proficiency with this sport. Essentially, a tantrum is similar to a laid-out type of back flipping we usually witness from those jumping on trampolines. But for wakeboarding...

For most people sunglasses fulfill one, or both, of two purposes: as a fashion statement to look "cool," and to help cope with bright sunlight. The choices available are seemingly endless, and can range from polarized to photo chromic to colorful tints and shades. But for pilots sunglasses are much more than a fashion statement. Sunglasses help safeguard a pilot's most important sensory asset in flight - vision. A quality pair of sunglasses is essential in the cockpit environment to optimize visual performance. They help reduce the effects of harsh sunlight, decrease eye fatigue, and protect ocular tissue from exposure to harmful solar radiation. Additionally, they protect the pilot's eyes from...

The dictionary defines reverse engineering as "the process of studying or analyzing the principles of a device, object or system to further document its structure, function and operation." In state-of-the-art manufacturing, the process of reverse engineering involves analyzing a part down to the smallest detail, in order to make a solid model and/or 2-D drawing to aid in re-manufacturing. We establish the parameters and features of a part through the use of a CMM (coordinate measuring machine) and wide array of manual inspection equipment. Once this is complete, the information is transferred to a CAD engineer who recreates the recorded geometry into an electronic file format via SolidWorks 2009...

Any new business starting off must focus on creating and maintaining the brand name. The aim should be to create a favourable image of the company and its product, by getting it across to the customers in the most appropriate manner, and able to distinguish it as a distinct identity from competing products and services.

Each word used in promotional literature, advertisement or even conversation must be strategically positioned. Many companies require sales personnel to stick to a script, which covers all possible questions that customers may ask or enquire. The message should be constructed keeping in mind...

A Zen story goes something like this: A student was having a meal with his Master. When they were finished eating, the student asked his Master, "What should I do now?" The Master replied, "Clean your bowl." At that moment the student was enlightened. This story illustrates one of the most important ideas that we all should take to heart: whatever we start, we must complete. Leaving a task undone, unfinished, or incomplete is the surest path to failure. Success in life can be summarized in a sentence: Show up and complete the job. It's amazing how few people fail to do those two seemingly simple things. That is what separates the winners from the losers. In Week Four of The Master Key System...
