Other changes include a raised RAM capacity that jumped from two gigabytes to four gigabytes and 144 MB of graphics allocation to the new Intel GMA X3100 card - up from 64 MB found in Intel&#39;s GMA 950 graphics chipset that had been incorporated in the previous MacBook line.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;The company is also offering a 2.6 GHz MacBook Pro featuring a 250 gigabyte hard drive.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;For full details, head over to the &lt;a href=&quot;http://store.apple.com/&quot;&gt;Apple Store&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;If you have any thoughts or feedback, let us know in the comments or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.powerpage.org/forums/&quot;&gt;forums&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/11/macbooks-quiet-upgrades.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-639700235983637543</guid><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 10:08:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-31T18:13:11.277+08:00</atom:updated><title>The Last Supper, Amazing 16 Billion Pixels</title><description>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;http://www.haltadefinizione.com/en/cenacolo/look.asp&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bYb77EV_3cc2KjHMer1prlBMwVvX_qY9dJftCaTe8Pj-EF7XAXNjypandrom94eIa-rqQ-c0ePS2xSLVlolBWz5YvPpvCC_YVm5Ly3lUxvRPhWIALE_gP1TFS-6RAzCu6_Sr3g/s400/16billion.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5127441137843373426&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: rgb(255, 102, 102);&quot; href=&quot;http://www.haltadefinizione.com/en/cenacolo/look.asp&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&quot;The Last Supper&quot;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&quot;The Last Supper&quot;, a piece by the famous Da Vinci, has been posted online with an outstanding resolution, comprised of 16 billion pixels.</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/last-supper-amazing-16-billion-pixels.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1bYb77EV_3cc2KjHMer1prlBMwVvX_qY9dJftCaTe8Pj-EF7XAXNjypandrom94eIa-rqQ-c0ePS2xSLVlolBWz5YvPpvCC_YVm5Ly3lUxvRPhWIALE_gP1TFS-6RAzCu6_Sr3g/s72-c/16billion.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-4489015413136693208</guid><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 09:52:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-11-01T19:27:00.364+08:00</atom:updated><title>Must Smile for Photo !!!???</title><description>&lt;center&gt;&lt;object width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;366&quot;&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;movie&quot; value=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/N1WC_00L0b0&amp;rel=1&amp;border=0&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name=&quot;wmode&quot; value=&quot;transparent&quot;&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/v/N1WC_00L0b0&amp;rel=1&amp;border=0&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; width=&quot;425&quot; height=&quot;366&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In order to snap the usual pose, you must smile or this Sony Cyber-Shot digital camera from Japan won&#39;t take your photo!</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/must-smile-for-photo.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-8383008174367687993</guid><pubDate>Wed, 31 Oct 2007 09:45:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-31T17:48:22.453+08:00</atom:updated><title>What do You Think ???</title><description>&lt;center&gt;&lt;embed src=&quot;http://www.metacafe.com/fplayer/878961/amazing_psycho_test_a.swf&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; height=&quot;345&quot; wmode=&quot;transparent&quot; pluginspage=&quot;http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot;&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;&quot;&gt;A mind trick.

When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. He went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace. To them he said, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ So they went their way. Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did likewise. About the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle. He said to them, ‘Why do you stand here all day idle?’ &quot;They said to him, ‘Because no one has hired us.’ &quot;He said to them, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and you will receive whatever is right.’ When evening had come, the lord of the vineyard said to his steward, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.’ &quot;When those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came, they each received a denarius.  When the first came, they supposed that they would receive more; and they likewise each received a denarius. When they received it, they murmured against the master of the household, saying, ‘These last have spent one hour, and you have made them equal to us, who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat!’ &quot;But he answered one of them, ‘Friend, I am doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me for a denarius? Take that which is yours, and go your way. It is my desire to give to this last just as much as to you. Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’ So the last will be first, and the first last. For many are called, but few are chosen.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a style=&quot;color: rgb(255, 0, 0);&quot; href=&quot;http://www.bcbsr.com/survey/pbl15.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;see comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/parable-of-workers-in-vineyard.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSLWik2motBpEqZTImUrgRdd0LwXeAeJHdBS6PuE9abssI8yb8xkZdq8qdUtwXIxZmYHqtury_q7_IwoYjBgQV4J1rglnO0dLfTqrN9gYHuPH6Fif-f3ti9ICAL6Ej_J6Yf9wBWg/s72-c/vineyard.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-6798637655088881590</guid><pubDate>Fri, 19 Oct 2007 17:03:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-20T01:14:30.086+08:00</atom:updated><title>Hi !

What is logic behind numbers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The numbers we all use (1, 2, 3, 4, etc.) are known as &quot;arabic&quot; numbers to distinguish them from the &quot;Roman Numerals&quot; (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, etc). Actually the Arabs popularized these numbers but they were originally used by the early phonecian traders to count and keep track of their trading accounts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever thought why ........ 1 means &quot;one&quot;, and 2 means &quot;two&quot;? The roman numerals are easy to understand but what was the logic behind the phonecian numbers?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&#39;s all about angles !&lt;br /&gt;It&#39;s the number of angles. If one writes the numbers down (see below) on a piece of paper in their older forms, one quickly sees why. Angle are marked with &quot;o&quot;s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: left;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 51, 255);&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;No 1 has one angle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;No 2 has two angles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;No 3 has three angles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;etc.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;and &quot;O&quot; has no angles&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 51, 255);&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaYDq7l59cjb_o4sEoxhAwTGjJlhXQrx6bjTNGnEHB8HOqdLX6uFAbg45dvXw1hGUq1izhAcMaFV9XPd6jRE14lwy8PxCPJ0h5PUEsPA77SOoG-MhbpEMn9-74q6mZE9gYO-nCQw/s1600-h/logic_behind_numbers.gif.png&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaYDq7l59cjb_o4sEoxhAwTGjJlhXQrx6bjTNGnEHB8HOqdLX6uFAbg45dvXw1hGUq1izhAcMaFV9XPd6jRE14lwy8PxCPJ0h5PUEsPA77SOoG-MhbpEMn9-74q6mZE9gYO-nCQw/s320/logic_behind_numbers.gif.png&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5122315410576720274&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: rgb(51, 102, 255);&quot;&gt;Amazing isn&#39;t it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/logic-behind-design-of-digits.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiaYDq7l59cjb_o4sEoxhAwTGjJlhXQrx6bjTNGnEHB8HOqdLX6uFAbg45dvXw1hGUq1izhAcMaFV9XPd6jRE14lwy8PxCPJ0h5PUEsPA77SOoG-MhbpEMn9-74q6mZE9gYO-nCQw/s72-c/logic_behind_numbers.gif.png" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>1</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-4992393970557346330</guid><pubDate>Tue, 16 Oct 2007 13:43:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-16T21:56:38.178+08:00</atom:updated><title>The Parable of the Lost Sheep</title><description>&lt;a onblur=&quot;try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}&quot; href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV8mPTPNHitEhJrlW9QSMJ2v89ivNsrMoOm5sDxR9-t9u7laT7jbtdExz1Nt9E93hoxXAydfUVfcE1BuRctMoT-iplFuCOgCg42SAvWtyQoJjykH_G3MTFoinkCYN1g0fRElYLWg/s1600-h/LostSheep_color.gif&quot;&gt;&lt;img style=&quot;margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgV8mPTPNHitEhJrlW9QSMJ2v89ivNsrMoOm5sDxR9-t9u7laT7jbtdExz1Nt9E93hoxXAydfUVfcE1BuRctMoT-iplFuCOgCg42SAvWtyQoJjykH_G3MTFoinkCYN1g0fRElYLWg/s320/LostSheep_color.gif&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; id=&quot;BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5121933008163520898&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Luke 15:3-7  &lt;/b&gt; He told them this parable.&lt;br /&gt;&quot;Which of you men, if you had one hundred sheep, and lost one of them, wouldn’t leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it?

The younger of them said to his father, &#39;Father give me the   share of his property that will belong to me.&#39; So he divided the property   between them. A few days later the younger son gathered all he had and   traveled to a distant country, and there he squandered his property in   dissolute living. When he had spend everything, a severe famine took place   throughout that country, and he began to be in need. So he went and hired   himself out to one of the citizens of that country, who sent him to his fields   to feed the pigs. He would gladly have filled himself with the pods that the   pigs were eating; and no one gave him anything. But when he came to himself he   said, &#39;How many of my father&#39;s hired hands have bread enough and to spare, but   here I am dying of hunger! I will get up and go to my father, and I will say   to him, &quot;Father, I have sinned against heaven and before you; I am no   longer worthy to be called your son, treat me like one of your hired   hands.&quot;&#39; So he set off and went to his father. But while he was still a   far off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion; he ran and put his   arms around him and kissed him. Then the son said to him, &#39;Father, I have   sinned against heaven and before you; I am no longer worthy to be called your   son.&#39; But the father said to his slaves, &#39;Quickly, bring out a robe--the best   one--and put it on him; put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. And   get the fatted calf and kill it, and let us eat and celebrate; for this son of   mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.&#39; And they began to   celebrate.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size:85%;&quot;&gt;   &lt;i&gt; &quot;Now his elder son   was in the field; and when he came and approached the house, he heard music   and dancing. He called on of the slaves and asked what was going on. He   replied, &#39;Your brother has come, and your father has killed the fatted calf   because he has got him back safe and sound.&#39; Then he became angry and refused   to go in. His father came out and began to plead with him. But he answered his   father, &#39;Listen! For all these years I have been working like a slave for you,   and I have never disobeyed you command; yet you have never given me even a   young goat so that I might celebrate with my friends. But when this son of   yours came back, who has devoured your property with prostitutes, you killed   the fatted calf for him!&#39; Then the father said to him, &#39;Son, you are always   with me, and all that is mine is yours. But we had to celebrate and rejoice,   because this brother of yours was dead and has come to life; he was lost and   has been found.&#39;&quot; (Luke 15:11-3)&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/parable-of-prodigal-son.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTFgQ0gZ30avhXz-jg-6na3lmdCMGKPgfiX2ry3CZ314u91h7zsLUrLerodc9i-Q02SMb1XZSxigmp7OyXl7nkQ-POFCvzPkm_pNtl_1CqNlCKnbdTQ4PTqgI0s8gDqXHwz5ib4Q/s72-c/poynter5.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-1824695775913862798</guid><pubDate>Fri, 12 Oct 2007 17:00:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-21T20:55:20.862+08:00</atom:updated><title>The Most Beautiful Thing</title><description>&lt;center&gt;&lt;A title=&quot;*** CLICK ME ***&quot; href=&quot;http://www.perpetualharvest.com/images/The_Cross.bmp&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVlcEu7Zf4j9te3zpMfjTOTqgoa6OSkIx-bRdY53WYOc3C3vUxM4eOUfshOgdgWjqM-DzC15o2nmHHUd4hB6n5WCLbHOnH50XVxkAyur4tkUvDQGQDR8xVefXxLXNXv4ZCYTtDjA/s400/M70~The-Best-and-Most-Beautiful-Things-Helen-Keller-Posters.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;Jesus&quot;&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/center&gt;</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/most-beautiful-thing.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVlcEu7Zf4j9te3zpMfjTOTqgoa6OSkIx-bRdY53WYOc3C3vUxM4eOUfshOgdgWjqM-DzC15o2nmHHUd4hB6n5WCLbHOnH50XVxkAyur4tkUvDQGQDR8xVefXxLXNXv4ZCYTtDjA/s72-c/M70~The-Best-and-Most-Beautiful-Things-Helen-Keller-Posters.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9737193.post-5509657957788154502</guid><pubDate>Wed, 10 Oct 2007 13:55:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2007-10-10T22:02:24.772+08:00</atom:updated><title>How to Drink Water</title><description>How to drink water? &lt;br /&gt;are we really doing the right method???? &lt;br /&gt;How to drink water? &lt;br /&gt;If someone asked you how to drink water, you might think it&#39;s a silly&lt;br /&gt;question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyone needs water, everyone drinks water everyday and most people&lt;br /&gt;know to drink water when they are thirsty. &lt;br /&gt;But drinking water may not be as simple as you thought. &lt;br /&gt;Especially in the dry winter weather, there are certain things that need &lt;br /&gt;attention. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Water-drinking timetable&lt;br /&gt;6:30-7:00 &lt;br /&gt;After a night&#39;s sleep, your body really needs water.&lt;br /&gt;Drinking about 250cc of water as soon as you get up helps clean out your&lt;br /&gt;liver and kidney. &lt;br /&gt;It&#39;s a good idea to hold off on breakfast until the water has entered &lt;br /&gt;every cell of your body, so try not to eat for half an hour after&lt;br /&gt;drinking the water. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8:00-9:00&lt;br /&gt;The commute to the office in the morning can be stressful, and this &lt;br /&gt;dehydrates your body. &lt;br /&gt;Drink at least 250cc of water when you get to work to refresh yourself&lt;br /&gt;from the commute. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;11:00&lt;br /&gt;After working several hours in a closed office, the heat may dry out&lt;br /&gt;your skin. &lt;br /&gt;Drink some water to help moisturize your body and decrease work-related &lt;br /&gt;stress. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;13:00 &lt;br /&gt;Drinking water after lunch not only helps your digestion but also helps&lt;br /&gt;keep your body in shape. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15:00-16:00&lt;br /&gt;In the afternoon many people may feel sleepy and cannot concentrate on &lt;br /&gt;their work. &lt;br /&gt;If this sounds like you that means you should drink some water to give&lt;br /&gt;yourself a lift. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;15:00&lt;br /&gt;Before you leave the office, drinking water can make you feel full. &lt;br /&gt;It especially works for people on diets. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;22:00&lt;br /&gt;Drink a cup of water half an hour to an hour before you sleep, which can &lt;br /&gt;help prevent blood clots. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How to drink water&lt;br /&gt;Pay attention to both quantity and quality Most people know they should &lt;br /&gt;drink about eight cups of water (About 2000cc) per day. &lt;br /&gt;This amount of water provides your body with enough moisture, clears the &lt;br /&gt;gut and stomach as well as speeds up blood circulation. &lt;br /&gt;But what they overlook is the correct drinking method. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best way to drink water is to drink one cup in a series of small&lt;br /&gt;swallows or mouthfuls.&lt;br /&gt;You shouldn&#39;t drink only when you are thirsty. &lt;br /&gt;Choose alkalescent water&lt;br /&gt;The Ph of human blood is around 7.4,&lt;br /&gt;and it is healthy for the human body to be in an alkaline state. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But nowadays, people are eating more deep-fried and greasy foods that&lt;br /&gt;are acidic and bad for the body. &lt;br /&gt;Because of this, the body needs more alkaline to balance its Ph.&lt;br /&gt;Alkalescent water refers to natural water with a Ph balance between 7.1&lt;br /&gt;and 7.8. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mineral water is the best for this, but remember, mineral water is not&lt;br /&gt;the same as pure water. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mineral water has many natural minerals that are absorbable correctives.&lt;br /&gt;Pure water is a kind of acidic water that may cause the loss of some &lt;br /&gt;useful body micronutrients. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Moisturize your body both inside and out Usually people ingest water&lt;br /&gt;through their mouths, but you can also &#39;drink&#39; water through your skin,&lt;br /&gt;by taking a spa, or hot spring bath or using moisturizing cosmetics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-A friend Mag</description><link>http://bennyho.blogspot.com/2007/10/how-to-drink-water.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Benny Ho)</author><thr:total>0</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
