FrostWire - The open source alternative to Limewire
2008-05-15 12:20:00 Those who have used Limewire will agree that it is an excellent P2P program for sharing files. Limewire uses the Gnutella network which is perhaps the best file sharing network after BitTorrent, which makes Limewire a better P2P program than eMule, Ares and the like. FrostWire is here to replace Limewire. FrostWire is an open source P2P application that uses the Gnutella and BitTorrent protocol, is free and provides all the features found in the free version of LimeWire, plus a few features... ...

Alternatives To Diets ? Health diets and diets on line can be good plans
2008-05-07 18:13:00 There is only one trouble with dieting and is that the dieter only wants to follow an eating plan for a while or until the weight is lost or some semblance of 'normality' is restored. Then they return to their old habits, the bad old ways, the way of life which got them into the situation in the first place. Nowadays, some people suffer from headaches as a result of having bad eating habitats that even painkillers can not finish until the person decide to follow health diets or a plan with advices about nutrition so they will stop gaining weight and the headache gets gone.

News : Investors eye Yahoo's alternatives to Microsoft
2008-05-05 17:15:00 By Michele Gershberg and Anupreeta Das NEW YORK/SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Yahoo Inc faced growing pressure on Sunday to find an alternative strategy to Microsoft Corp's $47.5 billion takeover offer after the software maker walked away over a disagreement on price. Yahoo shares could fall by more than 30 percent on Monday over the breakdown of talks, but that drop could be softened if Wall Street believes Yahoo Chief Executive Jerry Yang has another strategy up his sleeve, analysts said. Yahoo is likely to push for an advertising partnership with Web search leader Google Inc, sources familiar with the matter said. A tie-up with Google, seen as a big winner from the end of Microsoft-Yahoo talks, should help boost Yahoo's operating performance in the near term. "It's time to get a move on with Google," said Jeffrey Lindsay, analyst with Sanford C. Bernstein. "Let's hope they weren't bluffing." Yahoo is also still considering a deal with another Intern...

Wardrobe Alternatives
2008-04-22 11:58:00 We all have safety nets in our wardrobe. These are items we collect because they are comfy, they are cheap and they often remind us of younger, happier and more fun days (come now, who doesn't get excited when the weather warms up enough for flip flops?). Problem is, many of these wardrobe safety nets are devoid of any style and often end up destroying the personal style we otherwise may possesses on a given day. How do you keep it easy, breezy, yet maintain your personal style?The Flip Flop AlternativeDon't get me wrong, I love flip flops as much as the next gal. This weekend when grabbing a pair so I could play in the yard with my dog, I rifled through eight different pairs to find my beloved Reefs. I have stacked ones for longer pants, crocheted ones that are a tad dressier, aqua ones to match my bathing suit, ones that work well in wet conditions, ones that work with certain sun dresses or beach coverups in my closet. The thing is, flip flops are not real shoes. They don't lo...

Open PDF files faster with Adobe Reader Lite
2008-04-13 16:35:00 When it comes to bloatware, one of the strongest contender is the Adobe Reader. I never recommend anybody to use Adobe Reader to read PDF files.

Adobe Reader Lite is based on Adobe Reader 8 minus several plugins and unnecessary features that bogs down Adobe Reader. The result is a much lighter and faster Adobe... ...

Tackling Formaldehyde and Alternatives
2008-04-13 06:12:00 The March/April 2008 Issue of Building Products has a good summary for clarifying the use of formaldehyde in building products. There is no web link, unfortunately, so I will copy the article here.Most structural engineered wood is glued together with binders that contain phenol formaldehyde, a product with minimal off gassing. The binders used for some non-structural, interior grade products, like particleboard, MDF, and hardwood plywood, however, can contain urea formaldehyde, a volatile compound that is classified as a carcinogen. Urea formaldehyde is also linked to respiratory problems, eye and nose irritation, and allergic reactions. The telltale sign of its presence: the sweet smell that most kitchen and bathroom cabinets emit. New regulations in California will restrict urea formaldehyde emissions, but do not deal with phenol formaldehyde. In response, manufacturers are developing formaldehyde-free binders, using products like polyurethane and even soy. Last summer, the Cal...

There have also been concerns about whether slurry can be applied evenly enough to avoid over or under-dosing.

What Happens When You Follow the 5 Alternatives
2008-04-09 04:58:00 Alright, so I gave you a list of 5 Great Alternatives to Writing a College Paper. Well, I used a few of them. Here's what happens when you take the Alternatives too seriously... I had to leave for a trip at 2 on Friday. The English paper I had been putting off had to be e-mailed by midnight. Unfortunately, traveling meant no internet connection, which meant that I had to send in my paper before 2. Because I had been making use of the 5 Alternatives, I had not finished the paper when I went to my 1:00 class - English... I actually had the nerve to finish it in her class. Except that I still couldn't get it finished before 2. The final result was a great paper with a half-completed works cited page. (Not finishing a works cited page means that some sources were not given credit for thier ideas. That is defined as plagiarism, which is illegal.) The verdict? My professor took mercy on my situation and didn't fail me. I ended up with a B+ on the paper. I deserved much less. Some p...

5 Great Alternatives to Writing a College Paper
2008-04-03 03:06:00 While the particular paper to be avoided is for my freshman level English Comp class, these can be applied to any paper or project that you desire to avoid like the Plague. 1) Write a blog entry. -This is a prime example. I don't want to write the English paper, so I am writing this ABOUT not writing my English paper. I've managed to avoid the paper and put off the guilt by not doing something completely unrelated to the paper. 2) Go outside. -Physical activity will provide endorphins that schoolwork quickly drain. When you get back to the paper/project, you might actually WANT to do it! 3) Volunteer. -No teacher can refuse the excuse, "I was out late feeding the homeless/building a ramp for a man in a wheelchair/reading to children in the burn unit (or whatever it is you do) and didn't have time to do the homework." It's a lot more effective and a lot more believable than, "My dog ate my homework," though I have heard that that really does happen. 4) Join a club. -Yes, join...

Wallet Alternatives for the Minimalist
2008-03-31 20:21:00 Long time readers of my blog will know that I’m all about being minimalistic and efficient — from getting things done with my Hipster PDA (mini version) to doing all my web development on a portable usb drive. Another step in minimalism and efficiency can come in slimming down something you carry with you every single day: your wallet. There are many types of wallets but the one most people would be familiar the one that is bursting at the seams, barely fits in your back pocket, and makes you sit lopsided. It has been affectionately known as a George Costanza wallet since being featured on an episode of Seinfeld where it literally exploded. The danger of explosion aside, large wallets in the back pocket have been shown to be a contributor to back pain and poor posture. What do you REALLY need to carry? Credit card (maybe 2) Bank card Drivers license One or two other cards (transit pass, membership cards etc.) A little bit of cash Wallets for the Minimalist All of the...

The Alternatives in Obtaining Dump Truck Financing Posted By : Kris Koonar
2008-03-28 15:40:00 Getting finance for a dump truck is similar to getting finance for anything else. You have to undergo the same steps to find the right program to suit your needs. Whichever type of truck, dump truck, semi truck or heavy-duty truck you want to buy- there is a loan program for each. That last time I used my credit card, I kicked myself. You see, I'm trying out this whole negative reinforcement thing. Anyway, the point is that we should try not to spend so much and start saving more.

Meat Alternatives on CBS
2008-03-06 06:04:00 CBS News did a great little piece on fake meats such as Boca Burgers, Yves Veggie Ground and Smart Life Ground. In the video various reporters have to guess what's real versus fake and one of reporters even turns out to be a vegetarian. What made me happy was when people talked about how healthy it is not eating meat. The fact that a vegan consumes 0 cholesterol means your heart is generally healthier and your chances of atherosclerosis are lower. Overall, they could have mentioned the further benefits of being vegan vs vegetarian or at least something about how the animals are treated. But I'm still happy that Oprah Magazine and CBS would breach this subject. Posted by: The String Bean

Health & Fitness eBooks: The Less Embarrassing Alternatives to the Happy, H
2008-03-04 00:52:00 Did you know people shoplift boxes of condoms more frequently than any other item found a pharmacy?s shelves? Think about it for a second. The reason becomes fairly obvious: people are too embarrassed to be seen with condoms in their possession, let along buying them. And perhaps you?re one of them?the ?embarrassed,? not the ?shoplifter,? that is? Afraid a friend might enter the pharmacy at the point of purchase. A family member. A neighbor. Your boss! Even confronting the cashier who rings up your, um, purchase, or the person standing behind you in line is a potential source of discomfort. Suddenly anyone you encounter equates what you?re holding with your blushing face, immediately realizing what you?ll be (or at least hope you?ll be) doing that evening. Of course, you could be among the brave who march straight to the counter, box in hand held like it were a trophy, greeting everyone as you go. If you are, you?re luckier than many who become overwhelmed to the point of simply rep...
