Sexy touchscreen MP4 player for under a ton, anyone?

If your funds don’t quite stretch to an Apple iPod Touch or Archos but you still crave a touch-sensitive widescreen video player then find yourself 70 quid and get online.

Energy Sistem's Inngenio 6000: possessor of a 2.8in touchscreen and a sexy bod

Just such a device, dubbed the Inngenio 6000, has cropped up on a Spanish retailer’s website. The €90 (£70/$140) gadget boasts a 2.8in touchscreen display with 2GB of internal storage. It has a memory card slot built-in capable of taking Micro SD cards of up to 4GB in capacity.

Similar devices from Apple and Archos may offer larger screens, more storage and wireless connectivity, but each has a much higher price tag too. UK web retailer Advanced MP3 Players, for example, has a number of MP4 players from manufacturer Sumvision for a similar price to the Inngenio 6000, but none match its 2.8in display.

But what else does £70 get you? The 6000 model has an integrated speaker, so you won’t have to wear headphones while watching MPEG 4, XvID and AVI videos, and it’s compatible with various audio and still-image formats too, including MP3, WMA, JPG and BMP. There's an FM radio on board from which broadcasts can be recorded onto the player.

A number of unnamed games are pre-installed, but you could be disappointed if you’re expecting World of Warcraft, we expect. The player’s firmware is upgradeable, which suggests that new and improved features may be available later.

The Inngenio 6000 is available online now and the retailer will ship to the rest of Europe.

Eye Exercises. Relax Your Eyes

How long have you been sitting by your computer today? And yesterday? And the day before? How often do you work by your pc? Every day? Answer these questions and you will see, how often and for how long you strain your eyes and risk your eye health. The more you are sitting there, the more stressed your eyes become. Sometimes you experience headaches, eyestrain or even blurred vision, right? We all are humans and we all have to earn money, even if we have to sit by the monitor all day long. And yes, we all need some rest after work. Doesn’t matter, if this rest is also spent by the screen. But, please, don’t worry. I’m not here to say, you do something wrong. I would like to help you. How? I want to share with you some eye exercises, which will let your eyes have a little rest.

Why Eye Exercises Are Important for Healthy Eyes

Many eye problems occur because of the loss of tone in the eye muscles. The symptom of this is, for example, when one experiences slow refocusing when looking from the screen to distance objects. It means, that the eyesight has become weaker. Another problem is the tension itself. While you are looking at the screen, you are straining your eyes a lot, you may feel your eyes irritated and dry, occasional doubling of vision or even changes in color perception. If it is happening often and for long periods of time, finally you may get a general feeling of tension and anxiety, your work may become less efficient. Both eye and general tension can be effectively reduced by eye exercises. Eye exercises also help prevent nearsightedness and other eye diseases. Try them, they are very simple, you can do them even at work. Relax your eyes, give them rest they deserve.

Eye Exercise 1

First of all, sit down in a comfortable position. Cover your eyes with the palms of your hands. Don’t press the eyeballs. Try to relax and watch the darkness for 30 seconds. Breathe quietly and deeply all the time.

Eye Exercise 2

Sitting in the same position, look up and hold so for 5 seconds. Then release. Now look down hold so for 5 seconds. Then, again, release. Make 5 repetitions.

Eye Exercise 3

Now look right, hold for 5 seconds and release. Then look left, hold for 5 seconds and relax your eyes. Make 5 repetitions.

Eye Exercise 4

If you have enough time, you can do the exercises very similar to the previous two: look up left and down right, and then up right and down left with the same periodicity. It will only help more.

Eye Exercise 5

Close your eyes as tightly as you can, hold so for 5 second and release. Then open your eye as widely as you can, hold for 5 seconds and relax. Make 5 repetitions.

Eye Exercise 6

Rotate your eyeballs 5 circles to the left and relax your eyes. Then rotate them 5 circles to the right and also relax.

Eye Exercise 7

Look at the tip of your nose. Don’t be afraid, cross your eyes! Hold for 3 seconds and relax. Then look up at the ceiling without moving your head, hold for 3 seconds and relax your eyes. Repeat 5 times.

Eye Exercise 8

Find any object which is near you, for instance, the “escape” button and focus on it for 2 seconds. Then focus far away through the window for 2 seconds. Repeat 10 times.

Eye Exercise 9

Standing in one corner of the room (or sitting where you are), scan the objects in the room with your eyes. Focus on the table, then on the clocks, lights, doors and so on. Do this for one minute.

Some Useful Tips for Your Eyes’ Health

While you are doing these eye exercises, take a few seconds to blink your eyes before you start doing the next exercise.
Wash your face and eyes with cold water from time to time.
Your eyes will also like a gentle massage of the eyelids and the surrounding areas.
Make sure you consume enough vitamin A, which is good for the eyes health.
Try to sleep enough.

Newman Heart-Shaped MP3 Player for Valentine’s Day

There are many symbolic devices sold on Valentine’s Day eve. Newman, a Chinese company, have produced a new MP3 player designed like two kissing, which together are shaped as a cute red heart. Isn’t it nice! I find it a very cool gift. This heart-shaped Newman mp3 player uses an Ali M5667 chipset, has touch-keys, comes with 1 GB memory each and supports MP3 and WMA formats. It costs $55 for both heart parts, but unfortunately this cute device is now available only in China. To be honest, though I’m pretty romantic and like, how this mp3 player looks, I can’t imagine a man walking with this heart half. What do you think?

Whatever kind of media you need to convert, Melodycan is best choice for you. So forget about restrictions and enjoy your music and movies everywhere.

Effects of Drug Abuse

On the Individual

People who use drugs experience a wide array of physical effects other than those expected. The excitement of a cocaine effect, for instance, is followed by a "crash" : a period of anxiety, fatigue, depression, and an strong desire to use more cocaine to alleviate the feelings of the crash. Marijuana and alcohol interfere with motor control and are factors in many automobile accidents. Users of marijuana and hallucinogenic drugs may experience flashbacks, unwanted recurrences of the drug's effects weeks or months after use. Abrupt abstinence from certain drugs result in withdrawal symptoms. For example, heroin withdrawal symptoms cause vomiting, muscle cramps, convulsions, and delirium. With the continued use of a physically addictive drug, tolerance develops; i.e., constantly increasing amounts of the drug are needed to duplicate the initial effect. Sharing hypodermic needles used to inject some drugs dramatically increases the risk of contracting AIDS and some types of hepatitis . In addition, increased sexual activity among drug users, both in prostitution and from the disinhibiting effect of some drugs, also puts them at a higher risk of AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases . Because the purity and dosage of illegal drugs such as heroin are uncontrolled, drug overdose is a constant risk. There are over 10,000 deaths directly attributable to drug use in the United States every year; the substances most frequently involved are cocaine, heroin, and morphine, often combined with alcohol or other drugs. Many drug users engage in criminal activity, such as burglary and prostitution, to raise the money to buy drugs, and some drugs, especially alcohol, are associated with violent behavior.

Effects on the Family

The user's preoccupation with the substance, plus its effects on mood and performance, can lead to marital problems and poor work performance or dismissal. Drug use can disrupt family life and create destructive patterns of codependency, that is, the spouse or whole family, out of love or fear of consequences, inadvertently enables the user to continue using drugs by covering up, supplying money, or denying there is a problem. Pregnant drug users, because of the drugs themselves or poor self-care in general, bear a much higher rate of low birth-weight babies than the average. Many drugs (e.g., crack and heroin) cross the placental barrier, resulting in addicted babies who go through withdrawal soon after birth, and fetal alcohol syndrome can affect children of mothers who consume alcohol during pregnancy. Pregnant women who acquire the AIDS virus through intravenous drug use pass the virus to their infant.

Effects on Society

Drug abuse affects society in many ways. In the workplace it is costly in terms of lost work time and inefficiency. Drug users are more likely than nonusers to have occupational accidents, endangering themselves and those around them. Over half of the highway deaths in the United States involve alcohol. Drug-related crime can disrupt neighborhoods due to violence among drug dealers, threats to residents, and the crimes of the addicts themselves. In some neighborhoods, younger children are recruited as lookouts and helpers because of the lighter sentences given to juvenile offenders, and guns have become commonplace among children and adolescents. The great majority of homeless people have either a drug or alcohol problem or a mental illness-many have all three.

The federal government budgeted $17.9 billion on drug control in 1999 for interdiction, prosecution, international law enforcement, prisons, treatment, prevention, and related items. In 1998, drug-related health care costs in the United States came to more than $9.9 billion.

Stay away from Drugs (Drug Addiction)

Individuals who struggle with drug addiction do not set out to destroy themselves, everyone and everything in their path; rather, these disastrous consequences are the effect of the vicious cycle of drug addiction. For many, drugs seem to be a means of avoiding emotional and/or physical pain by providing the user with a temporary and illusionary escape from or way to cope with life's realities. Example, an individual tries drugs or alcohol. The drugs APPEAR to solve his problem. He feels better. Because he now SEEMS better able to deal with life, the drugs become valuable to him. The person looks on drugs or alcohol as a cure for unwanted feelings. The painkilling effects of drugs or alcohol become a solution to their discomfort. Inadvertently the drug now becomes valuable because it helped them feel better. This apparent release is the main reason a person uses drugs a second and third time. It can be just a matter of time before an individual becomes addicted and loses the ability to control his drug use. Drug addiction, then, results from excessive or continued use of physiologically habit-forming drugs in an attempt to resolve the underlying symptoms of discomfort or unhappiness.

Essentially, an addictive drug is a pain killer. They may seem to avert emotional and physical pain by providing the user with a temporary and illusionary escape. But in fact, more problems--serious ones--are created by using and abusing drugs and alcohol.

Over time, a person's ability to choose not to take drugs can become compromised--soon enough the person rationalizes the need to use consistently and will do almost anything to get them. They are now caught in the hopeless cycle of using drugs to alleviate pain and creating more pain by using...They now display the physiological symptoms of drug addiction. They become difficult to communicate with, are withdrawn, and begin to exhibit other strange behaviors associated with drug addiction.

In addition to the mental stress created by their unethical behavior, the addict's body has also adapted to the presence of the drugs. They will experience an overwhelming obsession with getting and using drugs, and will do anything to avoid the pain of withdrawing from them. This is when the newly-created addict begins to experience drug cravings.

They now seek drugs both for the reward of the "pleasure" they give him, and also to avoid the mental and physical horrors of withdrawal. Ironically, the addict's ability to get "high" from alcohol or drugs gradually decreases as his body adapts to the presence of foreign chemicals. They must take more and more drugs or alcohol, not just to get an effect but often just to function at all.

At this point, the addict is stuck in the dwindling spiral of drug addiction. The drugs the addict abuses has changed them both physically and mentally. They have crossed an invisible and intangible line.

The compulsion to use drugs can take over the individual's life. Drug addiction often involves not only compulsive drug taking but also a wide range of dysfunctional behaviors that can interfere with normal functioning in the family, the workplace, and the broader community. Drug addiction also can place people at increased risk for a wide variety of other illnesses. These illnesses can be brought on by behaviors, such as poor living and health habits, that often accompany life as a drug addict, or because of toxic effects of the drugs themselves.

Results from a 2001 National Household Survey on Drug Abuse and Addiction revealed that, while millions of Americans habitually smoke pot, drink alcohol, snort cocaine and swallow prescription drugs, too many drug users who meet the criteria for needing treatment do not recognize that they have a drug addiction problem. The figure of those "in denial" of their drug addiction is estimated at more than 4.6 million--a significantly higher number of individuals in need of professional help than had been previously thought.

I want to hear your heart and not your brain.

If you listen to me, I may listen to you.

At best, I’ll remember one thing you say.

Your message is only one of thousands I’ve already heard today.

When you admit you’ve messed up, it reminds me that you’re real.

I’m not convinced it’s truth.

I’m moved by stories.

When you make me laugh, I engage.

I hear it, but sometimes I need to see it or feel it or experience it.

I’m watching to see if you keep your promise.

I think it’s funny that you still think you control your message.

Polished scares me.

In order to speak to me, you can’t speak to everyone.

I’m not impressed by big words.

If it’s not about me, I’m not listening.

Your message has more impact when you shorten it.

It’s OK if you don’t have an answer for everything.

What are your questions?

Your message has impact if someone disagrees.

You’d be wise to participate in our online conversation.

I know it seems awkward, but it helps me when you repeat the important stuff.

Your message is not for you.

I don’t have to listen to you.

Mozilla launches viral campaign to tout Firefox

Fight boredom. Download Firefox.

That's the gist of a viral marketing campaign Mozilla kicked off Monday to push its open-source Web browser to new users.

"Rise up. Help others download a more interesting life," the campaign's site exhorts.

"Mozilla, dead set on retaining users, will launch a new online campaign called the 'Fight Against Boredom,'" said the anonymous author of a tongue-in-cheek blog dubbed "The Truth About Mozilla". The blog's writer goes only by the alias "Lizard," the Mozilla mascot.

"While the Lizard has no doubt that this campaign will be successful simply due to the number of Internet stars Mozilla tapped to make it possible, I do believe that this is a waste of Mozilla's money and effort. Promoting Firefox is arguably a good thing, but doing it in such a lame way doesn't truly convert users."

The campaign boasts a Web site, an anthem, a link to Firefox's download and an enormous list of statistics that purport to compare Firefox users with people who run its rival, Microsoft's Internet Explorer. Among the off-beat -- and unverifiable -- stats that take shots at Microsoft's IE are those that claim Firefox users are:

-- 123% more likely to be a student;
-- 35% less likely to be expecting a grandchild in the next year;
-- 15% more likely to have watched cartoons on TV within the last seven days;
-- 21% less likely to fish.

The anthem, dubbed "Rise Up," contains lyrics that most likely won't be welcome in Redmond, Wash., home of Microsoft, including:

"But some people make choices in life, that turn out pretty lame Sitting at home drinking white zin, playing a solitary card game"

as well as:

"Quit your day job with the man.
Rise up! Rise up!"

According to Lizard, the campaign was created by AKQA, an ad agency that has also done work, ironically, for Microsoft.

The campaign is a departure from Mozilla's usual marketing efforts, which has relied on the Spread Firefox site and the host of fans who drum up support for the browser.

According to data for December compiled by Net Applications Inc., Firefox accounted for a record 16.8% of all browsers that visited the 40,000 sites the California company monitors for its clients. Microsoft's Internet Explorer's share, meanwhile, slipped during from November's 77.4% to 76% last month.
