Spam Free Safelist

Fire your local phone company and get cheap long distance calling. Why pay your phone company premium rates for long distant calling when you can get unlimited calls local and long distant anywhere in the US and Canada through Skype. Calling anyone else using Skype is free. Now you can make video calls too! Using Skype is easy. Just go to there website and sign up for an account. Download their software and install it on your computer. You will get your own personal phone number. With Skype out you can sign up and get unlimited nationwide calls for less than $3 per month. Skype is loaded with features too like, call forwarding, conference calling, hold and mute, speed dial, auto redial and more. Visit there website to get the full list of details. What really turned me into a Skype user is the new phones you can buy pre-loaded with Skype Software. So now you can use a regular phone instead of talking through your computer. I sit in my backyard sipping my coffee talking to my family up north. I bought two phones from Amazon. First was the Netgear Dual Mode Cordless Phone with Skype. Love this phone. Dual modes, meaning you plug it into your regular phone line and into your broadband Internet connection. No computer needed. Log into your Skype account from your phone and you are ready to use either line! It is cordless too so you can go anywhere around your house. I walked to the neighbors 3 houses down and had no problem. Battery life is 12 hours talk time and 120 hours on standby. That is a lot better than my last cordless phone that I had to charge every night. I also bought a Netgear SPH101 Skype Wi-Fi Phone. No computer needed and you can use it anywhere a wi-fi connection can be picked up. School, office, coffee shop. Would be great for colleges. I bring it with me when I travel and I can call anywhere in the world for pennies. We have Wi-Fi at work so I can stay connected and make long distant calls with out getting caught on the company phone. Setup on both phones is really easy. Even a cave man can do it. Call quality on both phones are about the same. Most calss are really clear. Some are a little delayed. I would say it is equal to the quality you get using a cell phone. While not as crystal clear as a regular land line I never had a problem hearing the other person. So if you want to save a ton of money on your long distance look into these new Skype phones and get your long distant calls for next to nothing.

The ships bell had just sounded the dogwatch as Captain Skag began to check his email. He had just began to read his favorite E-zine, “Pirates gone wild” when his first mate burst into the cabin. “Captain, a dark ship approaches!” He cried. The captain, after running up on deck, examined the ship with his spyglass. “Shiver me hard drives” he bellowed as he saw the lay of her jib. “Shes a wardriver! ” (Note of historical Interest, a Wardriver is a term used to describe a way of searching for unsecure wireless networks.) “They be after plundering information on the ships server! Quick me mateys, prepare to repel boarders.” The crew scrambled to turn their laptops off while the Captain rushed to turn the wireless router off. Up on deck, the crew watched as the dark ship faded into the night. The Captain had no sooner settled back at his computer when again the cabin door burst open, this time it was the cook. “Blimey Captain, all my recipes files are gone!” This was bad news because the cooks famous secret recipe for chile con carne was highly sought after since winning 1st place at the Pirates ball last year. Thank the Kraken we have our backups” the Captain growled. The cook, cursing, left. Well, back to my email the captain thought. He pushed the send/receive button on his email client. “Blow me down” he bellowed, (Pirate Captains bellow a lot) “Whats all this SPAM mail doing in my inbox?” This was getting as back as a case of scurvy. As he sat, his rage boiling, he became aware of a lot of yelling coming from the crews quarters. “Now what” he cursed as he made his way forward. Upon entering the crew area he was assailed by a thunderous din of curses. (Pirates curse a lot) The Spainiard was yelling he couldn’t get his new game, “Pirates Revenge ” to load. The Italian couldn’t get into his stock portfolio. (Yes pirates have retirement plans too). The others were drowned out by the first mate yelling about his Blog being Hacked. As he surveyed the carnage, the captain noticed one of the crewman sitting calmly, using his laptop with apparently no problems. Bellowing loudly for quiet, he asked the crewman who he now remembered came from the land of Unix, why he was not upset. He looked up, and said “Why Captain, I’ve got a AntiVirus program along with good AntiSpyware and a reliable Firewall. I’m protected from brute force attacks, Phishing emails and drive by downloads.” He went on to say that it looked like the ships server was accessed through the wireless router, which was not secured with WEP (wired/wireless equivalent privacy). “Arrrgg”, he bellowed, the IT dogs back at the Island hideaway had told him all was peachy with the network when they sailed to pilage and plunder. The crewman whose name was Billy said he could get things ship shape by giving the other crewman the CD’s of his AntiSpyware, AntiVirus and his 3rd party Firewall…. for a price! “Aye,” the Captain replied wit a feeling of dread, “Whats your price?” Soon all onboard were back online and secure. Billy had his pockets stuffed with pieces of eight and of course, was wearing the Captains hat, looking mighty pleased with his bargaining skills. The Captain headed back to his cabin, worried that mutiny may be afoot. He had heard Billy telling the crew about those cursed Macs! The lesson learned here was obvious; You need to secure your network. AntiVirus and AntiSpyware is a must, So is a reliable Firewall. Anything less, you might as well be walking the plank, Matey! Arrrrgggg!

So now you have upgraded to Vista and you need to get your Palm (in my case it was the Palm TX, Palm Z22 and a friends Treo 755p) synced so you can get back to work. What happens next you ask? It doesn’t work! Yep, you installed HotSync using the disc’s that came with the device or you downloaded the current version and neither plays well with Windows Vista. Well fortunately there is an easy fix and that fix is HotSync Manager 7.0.1 and Palm Desktop 6.2 (or higher.) Read on for more details.

So let’s get right to the point. We need to completely remove any and every version of Palm Desktop and HotSync manager you have on your non-syncing Vista computer. (Please make sure you have backups of your Palm data!)

To remove this software:

• 1) Go to your start menu and click on “Control Panel”
  
• 2) Click on “Uninstall a program” under the programs tab
  
• 3) Select anything from Palm (HotSync, Palm, palmOne) and click “Uninstall”

Next we need to install the Palm Desktop for Windows Version 6.2 Beta to our PC. You can find the software at http://tinyurl.com/2dvktn (I used tinyurl to shorten the link; it was far too long to paste otherwise!) Once you have downloaded the Palm Desktop and HotSync software, simply run the installer as you did with the old version and you should be good to go!

Some quick notes on support though. This Beta version of Palm Desktop does not have the Palm Quick Install Tool nor can it sync with VersaMail over USB (though if you sync wirelessly, it works like a charm.) Next up, I’ll be showing you how to sync your Palm TX wirelessly over your network (And the possibility of syncing to your home pc from anywhere in the world, wirelessly!)

RAW image files are proprieties of the cameras manufacturer their file extensions are unique to its own and do not exchange well over other programs they consist of “.AR2″ for Sony Alpha “.ORF” for Olympus, “.NEF” for Nikon and “.CRW” for Canon, just to name a few. Adobe has also developed a RAW image file extension, “.DNG” meaning digital negative in 2004, Abodes DNG was created with the intention of unifying the individual RAW camera file formats. Your RAW image is at its most pure, but there is no guarantee that your cameras RAW file will be recognized by available software applications sometime in the future. You may have the most up to date software to read your Olympus RAW images today, but long-term archival of your RAW photographs do present some concerns. Perhaps 10 years later when you want to access your archived photographs, of your family are looking for that special photo of “Aunty Jan” as a kid, or another photo that might have some historical significance that your photos many not be accessible. This was a great concern to Photographers at the beginning of the Digital photography explosion, and even the reason why many today still shoot with film despite the advancements in digital photograph quality. DNG image file format is the answer to this concern. DNG files also have the added security advantage of saving all of the photo information supplied with the RAW files, i.e. keywords, descriptions and copyright notices. Basically you can have your RAW file completely intact after converting to DNG. DNG files have the ability to store full sized files or JPEG previews making it possible to preview your photos in your selected image viewer. Using RoboImport (http://www.roboimport.com) as your selected digital image management program gives photographers the ability to convert your RAW files to DNG files by including the specially developed Adobe DNG converter and enabling the option. Most impressive is RoboImports ability to embed the original RAW image file into the DNG file. Certainly this does produce a much larger DNG file, but it does allow for those occasions when you want access to your pure RAW image. This really is having the best of both worlds. With so much to be said of the benefits of RAW and DNG files many new digital photographers might be wondering why in the world all the other file formats may be necessary. Below is quick explanation of some other image formats. This short list is not intended as a comprehensive compilation, but just a presentation of a few of the most common. JPEG- A common image file format that supports 8-bit color, and produces smaller files with less available information. JPEG is a compressed image format and images to suffer some degradation on conversion. TIFF- Tagged image format is a flexible format that supports 16 bit color, or less. The flexibility of the TIFF has unfortunately created its own problems with many different variations both lossy, and lossless, some image viewers are unable to recognize the variations. TIFF although is still supported by many printers as standard for its ability to handle device-specific color spaces such as CMYK. GIF- Graphic interchange format is limited to a small 8-bit color palette. Gif files are very small making them ideal for internet webpages and animations.
