Computers and Software : OKI Develops CenterStage® NX4300, a Security Gateway with Translator Function for IPv4 Depletion Countermeasures
on 2008/7/6 10:30:00 (247 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---TOKYO--Oki Electric Industry Co., Ltd. (TOKYO:6703) today announced it has developed “CenterStage® NX4300,” a security gateway with a translator function to allow communications over different protocols, i.e. IPv4 and IPv6. The new device will be provided to the large-scale telecom carriers in Japan.

Broadband subscribers for ADSL and fiber-to-the-home have been increasing in Japan, and as the network environment progresses in other Asian countries, it is estimated that IPv4 addresses will deplete as soon as 2010. Therefore, shifting to IPv6 for a longer term solution is required. However, during the transition period, it will be necessary to implement measures to extend the IPv4 network duration while establishing new IPv6 networks, and achieve interworking among them.

Health, Fitness and Drugs : New Alen Molecular Conversion Process (MCP) Air Filters Permanently Remove Smoking Odors from Air by Changing the Molecular Structure of Smoke on Contact
on 2008/7/6 2:20:00 (217 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---Austin, Texas-- Alen Corporation, a leading manufacturer of innovative indoor air quality products, has unveiled a new high tech line of MCP (molecular conversion process) air filters that permanently removes smoke odors as well as numerous other indoor air allergens. Alen's new MCP odor filters - BF25A-MP MCP Smoke Odor Filter, TF30-MP MCP Smoke Odor Filter, and Gas-MP MCP Max Odor Filter - cost 40% less and use over 50% less carbon than similar competing brand air filters. Excessive use of carbon in air filters, as found in other competing brand air filters, dramatically reduces the air flow through the air purifier thereby vastly reducing its effectiveness. Alen's MCP air filters utilize only a thin layer of patented odor powder which allows maximum air flow through the air filter for superior air purification.

Music : The Musician's Guide On How To Copyright Music
on 2008/7/6 2:10:00 (284 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---Music is copyrighted as soon as you present it in a fixed form. It doesn't matter whether that fixed form is written sheet music or a recording. Most people who copyright music do so for the extra legal protection. Even though a copyright is good to have, it is essentially worthless unless you've registered your copyright with the Library of Congress. You will need to fill out an application, pay a fee, and provide a copy of your music. As far as government dealings go, this is one of the least painful. Even the application fee is marginal when you consider the fact you are protecting potential future profits and royalties from your music.

General Interest : Americas Watchdog Warns All, U.S. Homeowners, U.S. Pension Funds and Shareholders of Mutual Funds to Get Ready for Grim Economic News with a Preview of 2009
on 2008/7/6 1:50:00 (274 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---In 2005 Americas Watchdog was warning of a U.S. economic train wreck if the banks and mortgage bankers including U.S. home builders continued to offer consumers insane mortgage products like the pay option adjustable rate mortgage, and inflated real estate appraisals. The group's concern was that at some point the real estate bubble would explode, wreaking havoc on the U.S. economy. However, Americas Watchdog never calculated that oil would possibly hit $140, in the midst of what they had been predicting to be the worst U.S. economic crisis since the great depression.

Now the group is telling U.S. pension funds to carefully examine their real estate portfolios also called mortgage backed securities, and prepare for a new flood of foreclosures in 2008, that will get much worse in 2009 because consumers cannot afford a big mortgage payment with hyper inflation brought on by $140+ per barrel oil. Americas Watchdog is also pointing a finger at U.S. Mutual Funds for foolishly putting at risk millions of U.S. citizen's retirement accounts with investments, that continue to this day, to be heavily weighted towards financial sectors, or other sectors that would be at extreme risk during a severe U.S. economic downturn.

on 2008/7/5 16:30:00 (276 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---The power of spiritual development meditations have many aspects that help us.

During this process we will often be shown what our blocks are and what we can do to help our selves.

Health, Fitness and Drugs : Developing a Proper Eating Plan
on 2008/7/5 15:50:00 (278 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---Skipping meals doesn’t help weight loss

Many people begin a diet plan without knowing the proper way to eat. They may eat the right foods, but the way they eat those foods can have a positive or negate impact on weight loss. If you think you can skip meals and enhance weight loss, you will be quite disappointed with the results.

Develop an Eating Schedule

One of the key items to consistent weight loss is having a set schedule to eat your meals. Although sometimes this is difficult with the work schedules and lifestyles we lead, it’s an essential part of weight loss. In fact, the schedules that most of us keep today are likely to be contributing factors to overweight—as much if not more so than the type of foods we eat. It is unnatural to expect the body to go for hours on end without food. We began life as babies eating every 3-4 hours, and it’s only natural that the body should continue to expect that.

Health, Fitness and Drugs : Recovery From Exercise: Looking At What's Best
on 2008/7/5 13:40:00 (260 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---The human body operates most efficiently when it is in balance, or has achieved a state known as homeostasis. As such, optimal recovery means that all body systems have returned to the state they were in before exercise (homeostasis). However, for most avid exercisers, recovery is a limiting factor. The better you can recover, the sooner and better you can train. The process of recovery (regeneration) gets less attention than it should. Every person should have a systematic plan that includes recovery activities on a daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly basis. The following are simple tools that you can implement to help your body recover better between exercise bouts.

Men's : The Blind Bind of Male Depression
on 2008/7/5 12:40:00 (570 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---Many men have a difficult time recognizing that they are depressed. Men often interpret the word "depression" as describing a state of helplessness or hopelessness, accompanying a general sense of feeling fragile or vulnerable. In many ways our culture conditions men to ignore these states or to experience little awareness of them. Men are taught "boys don't cry," and are uniformly rewarded with praise and validation when they "act like a man" instead of tearing up or expressing fear in response to a harshly distressing encounter. Such an encounter might be a football injury or a harsh and critical baseball coach or an abusive peer. After years of this kind of persistent reinforcement these boys grow into men with a form of blindness whereby they often do not see or understand the nature of depression.

Health, Fitness and Drugs : Drug Detox Demand May Be Reduced By New Computer Program
on 2008/7/5 11:30:00 (303 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)---Most of the 500 Metro Detroit doctors who recently evaluated a new online prescription drug program say it improves patient safety and quality of care by reducing the number of pharmacy errors, patient allergies and harmful drug interactions that can occur as a result of hand-written prescriptions. This is good news for the thousands of victims of prescription drug problems who end up needing drug detox.

The majority of drug-related trips to emergency rooms and detox centers – not to mention sudden deaths and trips to the morgue – are caused by problems with prescription drugs. Hospitals, ERs and detox centers in recent years are seeing more dependencies, addictions, overdoses and life-threatening drug interactions as a result of prescription drugs than more traditional illicit street drugs like heroin, cocaine in its many forms, and perhaps methamphetamine.

General Interest : The Absurdity of Speaking in Tongues
on 2008/7/5 10:40:00 (269 reads)

(SkyNewswire.com)-- Why would God have you speak in a tongue you don’t understand, when He surely has no problems interpreting your mother tongue? Why did God give such a gift back then or nowadays for that matter?

A subject debated between different Christian denominations, the speaking in tongues as the gift of the Holly Spirit is still highly controversial to this day; some say it exists, some say it does not or other say that it might be, but only in known tongues.

For those who believe that all the gifts of the Holly Spirit are present in the Church today, things seem to be pretty straightforward and simplistic: The Bible says that the faith "was once for all entrusted to the saints" (Jude 1:3b), therefore it should be the way it was in the first place and no modifications added or taken out of it.
