FBX900 Fan/Fixture Box

I recently bought an elegant chandelier for $387. I decided to place it in my living room. As a result, I called the expert to have it installed. What a good idea that they install it between two rafters using FBX900 Fan/Fixture Box. Usually, I've noticed that chandelier gadget is mostly placed directly in the ceiling. But the home expert said that it is better to have an expandable brackets that securely mount the chandelier between joists, eliminating the need to cut and nail 2x4s to the fan or fixture.

What a delightful idea! I appreciate their intelligent work.

Phillips brings cinema to TV.

I have experience true cinema into my living room because of Phillip's 21:9 television. Obviously, the TV gets its name from 21:9 aspect ratio which matches the proportions of many films. It is really good because I can watch the film or my favorite movies without any distracting black bars at the top and bottom of the picture.

Unfortunately, some of the DVDs and TV programmes which I often watch have a narrower image (typically 4:3, 16:9 or 1.85.1) which means that my Cinema 21:9 will either have to display black bars on the side of the picture of stretch the image to fill the screen, causing some distortion.

On the other hand, the horizontal bars at the top and bottom of the film are stored on DVD and Blu-ray disc as part of the picture. To get rid of them, the TV has to upscale the middle of the picture to full the screen's native resolution of 2,560x1,080, resulting in some loss of picture quality.

But these aren't really problems for me. My Cinema 21:9 is tailored to movies and that the aspect ratio is what sets the TV apart from most wide screen TVs, which are tailored for broadcast TV.

Anyway, those are not a big deal for me. What is essential is that I was entertained with what I've watched.

How to make your blog popular.

I have numerous blogs and some of them get the highest rank. Higher rank means getting huge, abundant opportunities. But risking to attain high rank needs time-investing, sacrificial efforts.

Launching a blog? Easy. Having your personal musings read by someone besides Mom? Not so easy, given that 175,000 new blogs hit the web every day. Get yours noticed. Here's how:

Digg it. The purpose of dig.com is to help people find and promote cool but obscure websites. To submit your URL, just register with the site. Users rate the entries, and if you get enough "diggs", your blog could be featured on the sites front page where millions of visitors can see it.

Furthermore, submit your blog to the big three search engines: Google, Yahoo and Microsoft's Live.com. If they know you exist, your site will show up in search results.

The easiest technique: Do a Web search for "add url to Google" (or Yahoo or Live). Follow the link, enter the info, and you're done.

Moreover, post a lot. The most popular post content daily, so focus on a topic so interesting that finding great stuff to muse on doesn't feel like work.

Lastly, write strong headlines. Clear is better than punny. Words that are directly related to your posts are indexed better by search engines.

There you go! Now, you know. Hoping you will make it into the blogging business. This is indeed takes the effort.

New Canon Printer.

I have my old printer at home. It is Epson but when one finds this brand nowadays, it is obsolete or many store regarded this as face-out.

As a result, I bought a new printer which also has two 150-sheet paper trays, a duplex ADF copier and full network scan, fax and printing. Pixma MX850 Canon has it all and I love using it. I can have all the task done without me doing the work on different machines. This is truly all in one. It drat prints emerged at 13.5 ppm, text at 7.9 ppm and full-colour is cheap to run, with a mixed-colour print cost of just 5.6 pp per page.

Furthermore, it has four-colour inkjet MFP=9,600x2,400 dpi maximum resolution, 4,8000x9,600 dpi scan resolution, USB, 10/100 one-year RTB warranty.

Moreover, it has power but it is cheap to run, with a mixed-colour print cost of just 5.6 p per page.

Actually, this one is what I really need to work my job done, easy and fast!

About my SLR Camera

Traveling to places takes me to capture sceneries and natural pictures of people, nature or just about anything that struck my sight. In fact, I always have with me my SLR camera. I just love this and exact photographs of everything that I want to capture.

One of the main benefits of an SLR camera is that its lens can be upgraded or augmented with additional specialist lenses. Still, it makes sense to work out which other lenses you may want before you buy a camera. The lenses must fit the camera, which means sticking to the brand or going for a Sigma or Tamron lens, as these are available in a range of lens mounts.

The most important lens specifications are its zoom rand (expresses as a pair of focal lengths) and the amount of light is can capture (referred to as the aperture size).

Most readers will be familiar with zooms being described as 3x or 12x. These figures tell us the difference in magnification between the wide-angle (zoomed out) and telephoto (zoomed in) ends of the zoom.

The focal length, which is expressed as something like 18-55mm, indicates the specific magnification range of a lens. On a consumer digital SLR, any values below 30 mm are considered wide-angle and any above 80 mm are telephoto, the values in between are referred to as standard. On the other hand, the aperture of the lens is the size of the hole that lets light through. The bigger the hole, the more light is captured and the better the picture quality. Bigger holes make the focus tighter, so background and foreground objects more blurred. This is preferable in many situations, as blurring the background draws attention to the subject.

Most SLR lenses are useless at macro focus, so extreme close-ups require a dedicated macro lens. You should also look out for optical image stabilisation. This counteracts blur-inducing camera shake and is important for telephoto lenses where shakes are magnified.

These are some important points that I must share to you so that when you buy a camera, you can figure out which is the best fit for your choice.

MF-2HD Formatted Diskette instead of USB

For many years, I have been trusting to use the USB to save files, scanned photos and download music which I got from the Internet.

In fact, whenever I encoded prints using the Microsoft Word, I save the files in the USB. Moreover, when I have it printed, I just insert my USB in the computer, open the file name and have it print. There are many things that I can do with my USB. It makes my work faster, easier and it saves time.

Just currently, I have found out that my computer grasp virus which I think I get it from saving files from the office to my computer. No matter I close the file (having the virus), it successively show in the screen and so I have to quickly close them which I can't catch up.

My computer is destroyed and I spend $400 to fix them in the computer shop.

With this, I shift using the MF-2HD Formatted Diskette to save files. Eventhough, it can only store little files, I get the right protection from computer virus.

As a result, I also have my computer virus protected. NG2Q6GMCRNPF
