Avatar Day 2010

Wednesday, April 21st, 2010

Tomorrow is Earth Day 2010, but it’s also Avatar Day.

It’s the day that Avatar hits the stores for home purchase. Are you already in line? Have you reserved a copy?

I sure hope there are some left by the time I get off work tomorrow. hmmmm, I could try at lunch…..

I’ve already planned the evening. Get home, grab some quick food, and plot down in my big comfy chair in front of the tv, drown out all external forces(dogs-background noise) and focus on the screen in front of me.

:D

Hosting Plans

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

People all the time ask us about hosting plans.

Not everyone’s website will require server space akin to what The Doctor’s holographic program would.

Many people, people who are just creating a small website can do with ’small’ hosting.

There are a myriad of sizes of web hosting plans and you should find one that suits your site best.

You’ll want to consider if the place you choose to hose will include your domain name as many don’t. You’ll want to consider disk space too. A graphic intensive website will eat up disk space and the last thing you want when you’re conserving money by hosting somewhere cheap is to get hit with a large overage fee.

You’ll also want to look at the transfer rate. Is it unlimited?

Does the hosting company offer a money back guarantee. If ‘green’ is important to you – you’ll want to find out if the hosting platform is green too.

You’ll expect to pay way more if you want a private server or dedicated hosting, but for most websites, shared hosting is sufficient.

Is there a setup fee? A domain fee? Be sure to check for all associated fees before you sign on the dotted line.

Do you want to be able to sell online? Check for shopping cart compatibility.

How many email accounts come with the service? Is there an email bandwidth limit? People that send images back and forth or other large files ‘may’ find themselves eating an extra back-end charge due to excessive bandwidth coming from just sending photos back and forth.

What’s the up-time? Is there 24 hour support?

Compare your final webhosting choices also to see if you can upgrade in the future.

Websites shouldn’t be stagnant. They should grow. Your site just might take off like LCARS (Library Computer Access Retrieval System) and require an upgrade to keep up with your popularity.

Whatever you do, get to doing it with warp speed.

Just

“Make it so.”

Doors

Monday, April 12th, 2010

I need a new double wide garage door. I’ve needed one for quite some time. I haven’t been using it, just parking outside and using the inside for ‘storage’ and a home for the cats. I didn’t realize how ‘bad’ off the garage door was until I had a clothes washer delivered and the garage door just would not open. It wouldn’t even budge.

I think it rusted in place!

(We had a water break earlier in the year, water,water everywhere – running down the garage and under the wooden door – must have been the cause.)

Oh, to come home, and hit the remote button and say “Beam me up, Scotty!” and watch the door rise, opening, beckoning me in. Or to hear the whoosh, whoosh as the doors open as on the Enterprise. OK, so that just might be a ‘dream’ garage door.

None of that here. The darn thing is just flat stuck…

IF I lived in San Diego, I could call Garage Door Repair San Diego and get someone out here to fix the darn thing. That’s Garage Door RepaiINr San Diego but I repeat myself. Could this be a time warp?

But I don’t.

I’ve considered calling someone local but I’m ‘scared’ of the total cost. (Delivery, distance charges, ending up needing something ‘more’ than I thought I did, not a common size…)

Then there’s the front gate…….

Star Trek Docs

Monday, April 12th, 2010

Phillip Boyce
John Hoyt
Beverly Crusher
Katherine Pulaski
The Doctor
Martin Rayner
Leonard McCoy
Julian Bashir
Phlox

What do all these characters have in common?

Come on, you know….

They all played doctors on one format of Star Trek or another.

Leonard McCoy was our first doctor that we came to love and who wouldn’t love to have ‘The Doctor’ as their own personal holographic physician?

We don’t have access to these fictional characters in our own medical world, or to free medical bays, holographic projections or tricorders, but folks in France have access to mutuelle hospitalisation contract plans that are pathways for ST medical plans of the future.

Star Trek Tech?

Monday, April 12th, 2010

I wonder how much Star Trek technology flows over into the real life. Do trekkies dream of a way to create ST based technology and implement it into real world applications? Star Trek is based on real physics, so perhaps it is possible.

Could the video surveillance balls on Stargate Universe be a prototype for a real product?

If anyone knows it would be videosurveillance of France. They have up to the minute high-tech products right now.

Shields Up

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

The Defence Science & Technology Lab (Dstl) claims it’s possible to create a new kind of armour that uses pulses of electrical energy to repel rockets, shrapnel and other ammunition.

Such material could be incorporated into a vehicle to turn it into a kind of giant battery.

When ’shields’ are raised, the energy is diverted to the outside plating producing a strong electromagnetic field. This would create a ‘force field’ capable of rejecting incoming projectiles.

This technology would also decrease the weight of armored vehicles by as much as 70 %.

Road Trip!

Saturday, April 10th, 2010

Gone are the days when your kids would be happy with sitting in the back seat and playing ‘I Spy’.

Today, they need more distractions.

Having a dvd player portable in the car or your motel room will save your sanity!

And keep the kiddos occupied. And you can watch your ST dvd’s at night after the kids hit the sack!

Genre Wordpress Themes

Friday, April 9th, 2010

Back when I ‘dreamed’ up this website, I knew right away that I wanted a blog incorporated into the site.

This site was custom made because back then there weren’t a lot of choices when it came to
free wordpress blog templates

Not like today. Today you can find themes that will coordinate with any genre. Today they’re also easier to use, hassle free, and work tremendously well with wordpress (the choice of the majority of bloggers).

I already have a couple more blogsites waiting in the wings.

What’s your next blog going to be about?

Games

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

Games keep your mind sharp! Must be why so many trekkies are also gamers! It’s a smart bunch!

Games are also a great way to ‘teach’ your children without them even realizing they’re being taught!

I have a bookmark for when there are kiddies in the house. It’s funbrain!

Games there are categorized many different ways in the funbrain arcade. Games for girls, games for boys, games in different age ranges and skill levels. Games in flash, classic games and teacher resources. If you haven’t been to funbrain com, well you don’t know what you’re missing!
