小米記趣~『吃早餐五連拍』

今天阿母試著給小米嘗試吃牛奶吐司,怕吐司太乾一部分也擔心最近愛上甜這回事的小米不愛,所以就沾了點米漿讓小米比較接受也比較好吞嚥。以下就是攝影師阿爸的快手五連拍啦!

有那麼陶醉嘛!

這一款奇哥的會話骰子每一面都有它不一樣的功能,經典的是它有提供兩款語言發音,一個是英語一個是義大利語,好玩的是義大利語發出的聲音跟唱的歌很嘻哈,每每聽到這音樂,阿母就會胡亂搖擺來娛樂小米,看起來笑果來不差,至少小米挺開心的呢!但阿母還是覺得vtech的電子系列商品比較優秀就是了。

小米記趣~『什麼~踢踏舞公仔居然缺貨,厚~阿母可是積點積的很久,好不容易滿三十枚印花耶』

猜想小米有可能有興趣open將踢踏舞公仔,因此就瘋狂的在7-11購物累積點數,同時也不吝嗇的在msn昭告親友請進貢不要的點數,好不容易集滿了30枚印花,結果去了家裡附近的三家7-11得到的答案都一樣:缺貨。什麼東西阿~怎麼會醬子,真氣!回家搭電梯的時候,小米爸就說來張全家照吧,即便在怎麼覺得掃興的阿母當然馬上呈現燦爛般笑容囉!ㄎㄎ~

阿爸阿母路程上一直緊盯且耳提面命小米說手上那張珍貴的滿額集點卡可別掉了呀!
全家福

小米記趣~『apple polit睡著了』

無意間在網路上看到丁丁藥局買紫幫寶三包跟六包各有送不同的玩具,且截止日就在兩天後,不知道是DM顯示的小圖令媽媽想入非非的認為有非買不可的撿到好康玩具之心態,還是莫名的失心瘋,就舉家衝到丁丁一探究竟,當然沒空手而回,小米阿爸雙手提的滿滿,小米手上也沒得閒的拿著實體DM且緊緊不放,直到睡著了還是牢牢抓緊,因此就形成這樣的構圖啦!

蘋果飛行員執勤時偷看DM還打盹,真是遭了一百個糕!

Office 2007 with Vista - Genuine Problem Fix

I know two friends, each having genuine installs of Office 2007 with their Vista operating System. The problem stems from an embedded serial that MS mistakenly picks up as non-genuine. They tried to resolve with MS locally - but!
MS checks genuine stuff each time you boot up so it is like a spy thing. As an aside - I don't like Vista and many others do not either. And I tried office 2007 and reverted to 2003 version and I do some pretty complicated spreadsheets. Anyway back to the point at hand.

If you have a version of Office 2007, with annoying popups on your PC, then use Revo uninstaller to remove. Choose option 4 and do not reboot when MS asks you just let revo continue then reboot. YOU might be amazed to find office 2007 contains 21,508 registry entries and 3,916 folders left over that Revo removes.

Then download this Office 2007 torrent version Link. You will need a torrent client to download such as utorrent. It is iso file so either launch it from virtual drive (auto launcher may not work properly from virtual drive) or burn to DVD disk and launch it from disk. Should auto install the serials but to find keys open file and see readme.txt. Works for me on 2 vista machines and 2 XP's.

Another best option is to get rid of Office 2007 and download openoffice which is open source free and I think is as good as ms office. For simple office applications use google documents. Also check out google docs templates. Has some really neat features.

Better yet, download Ubuntu Linux and have fun learning how to use this OS - all free including all programs. I have Ubuntu installed beside Windows XP as trying to wean kids off Microsoft.

小米記趣~『猜猜我是誰』

這幾天正好整理小米的照片,發現有一張實體相片是小米出生的時候醫院拍的,且還裱框喔!回想那時出院的時候,護士小姐開心的拿給我看的時候(或許當下他預期我應該看了會很高興吧!殊不知。。。),媽呀~怎麼頭髮沒梳整好,目珠還脫窗,這叫我這當娘的怎麼愉悅的起來呢。厚~只能正面思考的想說,對啦~術業有專攻,又能奢求什麼呢。

切~醫院的傑作

Katana from SPI for Nuke

Thanks Kuan's info about Katana from SPI for Nuke

check out this:
On the lighting side the package, while not writing shaders, does allow nodal based manipulation of the shaders and speaks to third party renderers such as Pixar's Renderman and Arnold. It started life as a 3D lighting package some five to six years ago, it takes assets (geometry) "assigns materials, textures, - gets the lighting rigs set up - it is the primary 3D lighting interface that all of our lighting people use" Bredow explains. The system is node based, like Nuke but covering lighting in addition to compositing.

On the compositing side it has all the main compositing tools, color correction, roto, paint, keying, camera mapping and stereo compositing & manipulation etc. "Our previous compositor was Bonsai, and that was developed over a number of years, it had very sophisticated keying, roto tools, etc.. Katana took all those tools in as a starting point and then we built on top of it, so Katana has pretty sophisticated fully featured tools in there". adds Bredow.

wow...

在沒有足夠的人力資源下,父母親自帶小孩實屬不易與辛苦,但這樣的辛苦也換來北目我們能夠參與小朋友每一階段的點點滴滴,自從六個月開始小米從只會往後爬到漸漸抓到訣竅往前爬行,這之中他也從咿咿啊啊的火星語到七個半月喊爸爸一個半禮拜喊媽媽時那種北目心裡莫名的激動,以及會揮手打招呼與闔起雙手的鼓掌,這一點一滴的過程就像是天上掉下來的禮物般令人驚喜。

但有趣的是,小米看到&摸到紅豆的表情有點說不上來的期待又怕受傷害似的。

How to get rid of "Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) Annoying Popup (For XP, Vista)

I bought desktop, a few years back, and it had Windows XP Pro installed. Last week an annoying nagging pop-up "saying my copy of XP" was illegitimate. So did some searching. In short, MS had blacklisted my serial number. This has happened to others that bought notebooks with XP installed as "genuine" with stickers on the machine, then some months later they black list the serial number.

I caution all to only do this if they have a genuine version and then had WGA problem and microsoft was no help. Other wise it is illegal. So proceed with this in mind. I have to state this caveat.

If this happens to you don't panic - you can get rid of it. but first read below excerpts from this article.

"Once the WGA Notification tool has checked your OS and has confirmed you had a legit copy, there is no decent point or reason to check it again and again every boot. Moreover, connecting to Microsoft brings security issue for corporate networks, and privacy issues for everyone. It is also unclear which information are transmitted (Microsoft published an official answer, but an individual study brought some questions). All of that, along the fact that Microsoft used deceptive ways to make you install this tool (it was told you it was an urgent security update, whereas it is a new installation giving you no extra security) makes me calling this tool a spyware. "

This sypware tool is uploaded to your computer disguised as a critical security update.

How to remove: for XP (see at end of post for Vista)
  • Create a system restore point- just in case you make a mistake.
  • Some recommend to do following from safe mode, but I did not and no problem.
  • From Start-Run type regedit.exe and search for wgalogon folder and delete it.To search, go to Edit tab, then click find and then type wgalogon. It will find folder then Delete folder. Or search for folder HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\
    Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\Notify
  • Delete the folder ‘WgaLogon’ and all its contents
  • In your windows directory search for files wga* and delete them. Just go to start-> search->files and folders type wga* - delete all files found.
  • Reboot computer - WGA is gone.
  • Now to make sure you don't get it back, turn off windows automatic update from control panel. Better you manually get updates, and be sure this WGA one does not get selected to download. From time to time you can go to Automatic updates but select "notify me but do not download". The uncheck the "Windows Advantage Notification" and any others you do not want. I also uncheck updates for Windows XP security updates as not sure what these are and can live without it. Then I go and turn automatic updates off again or the update icon will keep nagging you.
For Vista see this link and read all comments. Some say do not upload SP1 as could make a problem.

Egypt A/H1N1 School Closures

This article appeared in Al Masry Al Youm online newspaper 8/11 and the number of class/school closures is quite a long list. The EID holiday will also be extended to 10 days from Nov 26 to Dec 5th.

As parents we all are very concerned for our children attending the closer confines of school, so knowing the school has effective protocols in place, and rigidly following them, gives one a bit of warmer feeling. Of course school is not only place one can contract flu, but a high threat location to spread.

I am not sure what protocols local Egyptian schools have to identify, and protect against the flu spread, but I am pleased to know that at Canadian International School Egypt (CISE) procedures are in place to measure temperature of each student getting on the bus in morning, and also entering school grounds if transport by other means. Device is hand held and measures in a few seconds. If temperature other than normal students are instructed to return to home, and school authorities are advised for follow-up with parents for additional medical information. All confirmed cases must be reported to Health Ministry. My daughters also advise hygiene standards are tops, as well as additional checks are in place.

Student friends also advised American international School (AIS) has similar protocols, and sure other international schools as well. Hopefully the vaccines will be available soon, but even then, I suggest relaxing the vigil would not be a good idea.

Silver Sonic XL Hearing Aid Review - Legit Or Scam?

What Is the Silver Sonic XL?

The Bell + Howell Silver Sonic XL is a hearing aid device that is used to help people hear things better whether young or old. The Silver Sonic XL is not like a traditional hearing aid but rather is a small headset device that looks exactly like some bluetooth headsets. It is adjustable and advertised to be comfortable for all ear shapes and sizes. The Silver Sonic XL is non-FDA approved which means that it's quality isn't guarantee but also that it is significantly cheaper than a traditional hearing aid. The makers of the Sonic XL claim that it can amplify sounds that are up to 90 feet away, giving you super sonic hearing and allowing you to hear noises and conversations that you would never hear without this device. As of today you can get the standard Silver Sonic XL for only $19.95 + shipping and handling. You can also choose to get the premium rechargeable one for only $10 more. The Silver Sonic XL comes with a 60-day money back guarantee so you can return it if you decide that you don't like or it doesn't work as expected.

Does The Silver Sonic XL Really Work?

The Silver Sonic XL has had mixed reviews up to this point and overall there is very limited information available from it's users. From what we have been able to gather we determined that the Sonic XL does amplify sounds and make them louder but it doesn't amplify sound as greatly and perfectly as it's manufactures claim. Some users have said that the Silver Sonic XL works great while others have said that there is static and little sound amplification. Checking out comments from users of the Silver Sonic below is highly recommended. It is important to remember that you shouldn't expect the same quality as what you get with a high priced FDA approved hearing aid.

What Is The Silver Sonic XL Return Policy?

Silver Sonic XL offers a 60-day money back guarantee to insure that all customers are happy with their purchase. Their website says you can return your Silver Sonic for any reason within the first 60 days for a refund. Just remember, you probably won't get the shipping & handling fees back and also you need to have the original packaging and a receipt in order to initiate a return and refund. We make no claim to the validity of their return policy this is simply the return policy that they claim is available.

How Is Silver Sonic XL Customer Service?

Customer service is always of importance when purchasing an as seen on TV product. The Silver Sonic XL is no exception so it is highly recommended that you research this before you make your purchase. From what we have gathered Silver Sonic XL customer service is not as bad as some other as seen on TV products but at the same time it is not perfect. We have seen both ends of the perspective. Some customers have been able to quickly and easily return their Sonic XL while others had issues with the return & refund process. Again, we recommend that you check out comments from users below regarding this. If you want to return your Sonic XL be sure that you call back until you get through to a customer service rep and get the issue taken care of and be adamant about what you want to do.

Are There Any Drawbacks To the Silver Sonic XL And Making An Order?

There are a few drawbacks to purchasing the Silver Sonic XL but nothing extreme. One negative that we have found is the tricky ordering process on their website. It is important to realize that when ordering you will be charged a shipping and handling fee for each item you order. This means that if you order 3 Silver Sonic XLs you will be charged 3 shipping and handling fees. When going through the order process you will also want to note that after you have indicated you want the standard Sonic XL they will offer you the premium rechargeable one. You need to be sure that you are upgrading to the premium one and not adding another Sonic XL to your order. Some customers have had issues with this in the past and ended up ordering an extra Sonic XL or two only to have the S&H fees be nonrefundable.

The Silver Sonic XL Bottom Line

Personally we think the idea of walking around with a headset all the time is just silly. For some this may not bother them and if that is you then by all means go ahead and purchase one. In all honesty though we don't see the Silver Sonic XL really being that useful to the average individual that has good hearing. We see the real use of the Sonic XL to be for older people who have slight hearing problems but can't/don't want to spend $1000 on a "real" hearing aid device. The Silver Sonic XL does not work as well as expensive hearing aids but for those that need minimal sound amplification this could be a cheap alternative. If you or someone you know has hearing problems then it may be a good idea to try the Sonic XL before $1000 is dropped on a hearing device. Perhaps this cheap $20 device will get the job done. The quality reviews of the this product have been mixed up to this point with some saying it doesn't work very well and others saying it works great. We have concluded that it does amplify sound to a certain extend but not up to par with the companies claims. However, at $19.95 + S&H and a 60-day money back guarantee we don't see how you can go wrong in trying this product out. If it doesn't work just send it back and you would only be out the S&H charges.

Dream TV Satellite in the Philippines has information about the NTC complaint filed against them, piracy and pirated units, customer complaints, bankruptcy (corporate rehabilitation), dealer listings, contact Dream officials directly links (they never answer their emails from my experience),I have frequently read complaints about the service provided by Dream Satellite TV, including that they operate a monopoly and recently they elimated their 790 service and those that bought ten months package did not get any compensation when the cable channel offerings were reduced to 650 and no extension of these people packages including mine! And even worse they never emailed, called, or even posted on their website any notice of this downgrade and change except to note the new packages!

Dream tv makes you call them long distance at your expense when you want to load or have problems or upgrade or downgrade instead of putting a free SUN number in and putting an instant chat program their website or even better giving you a skype number to call.Well, at last they have competition. Check out consumer concerns on Dream herehttp://dreamsatellite.wordpress.com/

Note Dream has no Home Box office, Cinemax, Basketball TV channel and the others below do for the same price or less but Dream does have the Travel channel and Animal Channel.
