I own two blogsites and there are times that someone leaves their comments and I don’t know who they were. I was thinking about using IP2Location™ so that I can get the location where they are from and who my guests are. It's nice to know where everyone is from and know if they are coming to visit for good or just to well you know. Yesterday, somebody left a comment in my other blog and I really didn’t like what her/his comment said. It was something about their old tradition and it had some cussing in the message. I totally disagree with what that person said, but I didn't know how to find out who that person was. I know I am not the only one that has had this situation, but many of you have had the same problem as well.

IP2Location™ is a geo IP solution to help you to identify visitor's geographical location ie. country, region, city, latitude, longitude, ZIP code, time zone, connection speed, ISP and domain name, IDD country code, area code, weather station code and name using a proprietary IP Address lookup database and technology without invading Internet user's privacy. This is good for security reasons just like my case, because I could not locate the person who left that comment on my blogsite. Actually he didn't say anything that pertained to what I wrote in that article, but just popped off and said what was on his/her mind. This is such and awesome database that it is also being used by Fortune 500 companies. Download your free copy of the demo database today.

It's Rainy Day!

2008-08-20T08:56:00.002-05:00

It's strange but it has been raining since last night here. Anyway, I loved it. There are some reason why I love to rain especially this summer season. First, We don't need to water our lawn and our plants. Second, it's cool so we turned off our aircondition. Hehehe. It's another way to save up money on paying water and electric bills this month.

Movado Watch

Two years ago a friend of mine gave me a wrist watch. I enjoyed that watch for 2 years, before I gave it away to my niece. It wasn't an elegant looking watch, but it was really, really cool and fitted my personality. After that I gave the watch away, I had no passion to have another one. But, I found it very necessary especially when I have a busy schedule. My hubby told me if I need to get a new one it's okay. How about this Movado watch for women?

Known for Humility

2008-08-19T18:46:00.009-05:00

“Don’t cherish exaggerated ideas of yourself or your importance." Romans 12:3 Phillips

The mightiest of the saints were known for their humility. Though Moses had served as prince of Egypt and emancipator of the slaves, the Bible says, “Moses was…more humble than anyone else” (Num. 12:3 NIV)

The apostle Paul was saved through a personal visit from Jesus. He was carried into the heavens and had the ability to raise the dead. But when he introduced himself, he mentioned none of these. He simply said, “I, Paul, am God’s slave” (Titus 1:1 MSG).

John the Baptist was a blood relative of Jesus and the first evangelist in history, but he is remembered in Scripture as the one who resolved, “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30 NKJV). Max Lucado.

The perfect example of humility when Jesus washed the feet of his disciples. He was the king, a leader yet he put away his throne and came to earth to serve. He didn't boast being a powerful God instead He showed to us on how to humble ourselves.

In 10 days our Grandma is going to celebrate her 84th birthday. My hubby and I bought and gave her our birthday present to her. She loves to read the Bible, but lately she has trouble reading because the print is too small for her to see. So, my hubby and I decided to give her a "Super Giant" print Bible. And, she was happy to receive it last night.

Before we figured out what she really wanted to have, I was thinking of giving her a gift card so that she could buy what she wanted. GiftCardLab, the premier provider of Visa Gift Cards, is for a limited time offering the official and collectible 2008 Olympic Visa Gift Card series. The GiftCardLab Visa Gift Cards are great for birthdays, employee recognition, customer appreciation or any occasion.

When the parent's are coming over, we look forward for "grilling steak". Lol.

Besides that less expenses rathen than going to the restaurant all the time. We go out once in awhile and eat too. But our favorite thing to do is to hang out in our Patio.

When our friends know that our family are coming over, the first question pop up in their minds "What time you are grilling?", I'll come over,lol.

Broadband is the next cable monopoly

2008-08-18T12:11:00.002-05:00

The next cable monopoly? It's the Internet connection business. Cable companies are handily beating telecoms when it comes to the triple-play of Internet, phone and TV, according to Bernsterin analyst Craig Moffett. About 80% of the new broadband connections in the U.S. belong to cable.
Add that to the trend of people dropping their telephone land lines, and the picture isn't pretty for telcos.
"In the harsh glare of second quarter seasonality, the telcos' wired businesses look not only like they are weakening," Moffett writes, "they look like they are positively collapsing." The landline business is down nearly 10% annually at AT&T and 12% at Verizon. Read More... .

Well, it's up to the consumer. When this gonna happen, will be good. We just thankful what technology helps and can offer to us.

Is the Internet finally killing TV?

2008-08-18T11:56:00.002-05:00

Is this the summer that the Internet finally kills television as we once knew it?

Most industry observers are stopping short of that prediction, citing some significant hurdles still in the way.

But the growing number of new deals and new devices being announced suggests that a profound change in the way people watch video -- and what video they watch -- is under way.

The line between "television" and video via the Internet already has blurred and may disappear in coming years.

At least one industry analyst has declared "TV is dead" and welcomes Americans to a new age of video everywhere.

Increasingly, Americans are watching video when they want to, and on the screen that suits them at the time. And more programming is from new sources that threaten to unlock Hollywood's domination of content.

Maybe so...personally I prefer to watch my show in the internet. I'll check the weather forecasts as well and all the stuff online. Since I work home use internet a lot, I really don't have time watching TV.

Merchants Accounts

2008-08-18T08:19:00.003-05:00

After the Church service yesterday, one of the ladies came up and asked me, what I did for a living. I told her that I stay at home and do blogging. She was curious to find out what I was talking about, because of she didn't know what blogging or writing reviews was. I explained to her and she said you are doing great. She asked me if I was interested in joining her in her business. Business? Such sweet music to my ears, lol. Anyway, I asked her what kind of business she had and she also explained it to me. She invited me and my hubby to go to her office this coming Friday for more explanation and orientation. If we were interested in it, she would help us. Whew! Am I facing a tough decision? This is similar to making a decision about what kind of credit card I'm going to get. If I start my own business I need a merchant account. Merchant Advisors offer free credit card processing.

What's Your Mankind Motto?

2008-08-16T13:49:00.004-05:00

What's Your Mankind Motto? I had a very difficult life growing up; a life that many people would not want to have. Of course, if only I had a choice to be born into a very prominent family I would, but God had a plan for me. For me to uplift my soul and continue to strive to reach my goals I would tell myself "The quitter never wins, the winner never quits". When I felt down and discouraged I always thought about this phrase. It's true, when you fail once it doesn't mean that you are a loser, so get up and fight the good fight again.

I know since before we, human strive harder to have a better life. What are your milestones that signify your greatest achievements? Have you heard about Operation Immortality? Operation Immortality is a real once in a lifetime event that will save a history of humanity's greatest achievements, digitized human DNA and personal messages from people all over the world. Lol, this is a kind of game I know gamers like me will have so much fun. Operation Immortality was created by Richard Garriott. Richard Garriott is the son of former NASA astronaut Owen Garriott. Richard's main objective for his space mission is to encourage educational programs involving space exploration and to advance commercial and private participation in the area of space exploration. Explore the galaxy and save life. Operation Immortality: Leave your mark. Save Humanity.

God’s View of Your Life

2008-08-16T11:48:00.004-05:00

“You are my place of safety and protection. You are my God and I trust you.” Psalm 91:2

Have bad things really happened to you? You and God may have different definitions for the word bad. Parents and children do. Look up the word bad in a middle-schooler’s dictionary, and you’ll read definitions such as “pimple on nose,” or “pop quiz in geometry.” “Dad, this is really bad!” the youngster says. Dad, having been around the block a time or two, thinks differently. Pimples pass…

What you and I might rate as an absolute disaster, God may rate as a pimple-level problem that will pass. He views your life the way you view a movie after you’ve read the book. When something bad happens, you feel the air sucked out of the theater. Everyone else gasps at the crisis on the screen. Not you. Why? You’ve read the book. You know how the good guy gets out of the tight spot. God views your life with the same confidence. He’s not only read your story…he wrote it. -Max Lucado

Isn't that sweet when God promise us that he is our help and our shelter in the times of need? Max Lucado is right as human we have an individual view about bad thing. But no matter how bad circumstances happen, God allow for a reason and purpose. To strengthen us and acknowledge that He is powerful and faithful God...

Paintball gun

2008-08-15T15:33:00.011-05:00

I haven’t played this paintball game yet, but I am hoping that I can in the future. What is paintball? Paintball is America's fastest growing extreme sport. Unlike other extreme sports like mountain climbing, motocross, stock car racing, sky diving, whitewater kayaking, paintball is the only extreme sport that gives you a high adrenaline rush without a risk of serious injury, due to an error in judgment. This is a very encouraging game, because youth and adults can play together. You can do the same in video games that are first person shooters, but this game gives the added benefits of exercising. To play this game you need a cool paintball gun. Ultimate Paintball keeps in stock a full line of paintball guns, paintball markers, paintball gear, barrels, hoppers, harnesses, tubes, and paintball masks. They have been in the paintball business for over 5 years. Their top selling guns are the Tippmann A-5, Tippmann 98 Custom, Smart Parts Ion, Spyder Pilot. They also have paintball sniper rifles.

Invisibility Cloak on the Horizon, Scientists Say

2008-08-14T19:40:00.001-05:00

Scientists say they are a step closer to developing materials that will render people and other objects invisible.

Researchers say they can redirect light around 3-D objects using metamaterials--artificially engineered structures created at a nano scale that contain optical properties not found in nature, according to an Associated Press report.

People see objects as a result of the light reflecting or scattering off them. This new mixture of materials has "negative refractive" properties that keep light from being absorbed or reflected by the object, allowing only the light from behind the object to be seen. Essentially, the material bends visible light in a way that eliminates the creation of reflections or shadows in much the way water flows around a stone.

I found this article cool and very interesting. I can imagine what science can do in our technology and our lives. One of my concern is that what if the bad guy will use technology. They will use the cloak to cover themselves be invisible. Whew! Anyway, let see what is going to happen in the future.
