This blog post is not personally mine but I wanna share this to all my regular visitors and readers who don’t know yet about this very important information. Written by a doctor who suffers from cancer and he uses alternative rather than conventional medicine that involves chemo etc. Good to share with family and friends. So here it goes…
Subject: Cancer treatment is about making money…provoking thoughts
The below is absolutely 100% true and as a doctor I have been telling people this for 15 years now. No one wants to listen. Folks need to wake up. Cancer treatment is about making money. It is a 120 billion dollar a year industry in the United States alone and estimated to be a 600 billion dollar a year industry worldwide. Read more…
Google recently announced that they would start charging for the use of Google Maps. Full details can be found at the Google Geo Developers blog.
The following is an excerpt from the Google Maps API FAQ page:
Web sites and applications using each of the Maps API may at no cost generate:
- up to 25,000 map loads per day for each API
- up to 2,500 map loads per day that have been modified using the Styled Maps feature
If your application exceeds these usage limits you must respond in one of the following ways in order to continue using the Maps API in your application:
- Modify your Maps API application such that the number of map loads generated per day is below the usage limit for each API that your application uses;
- Enroll for automated billing of excess map loads; or
- Purchase a Maps API Premier license
Non-profits and applications deemed in the public interest (as determined by Google at its discretion) are not subject to these usage limits.
25,000 map loads per day is a pretty high number. We don’t think this news from Google will have an impact our customers, but we want to be sure. Tell us, do you think the new Google Map API limits will affect your ClassiPress or JobRoller site? Are you getting in excess of 25,000 map loads per day?
HTC Sense XE is another new released custome UI for Android phones. It brings a new unique flavor to stock Android to enchance use experience.
Essentially it’s just the popular HTC Sensation with the addition of Beats audio processing, but it’s been given another couple of decent upgrades too.
The big one in our eyes is the battery – we’re now being offered a 1730mAh power pack which should help offset the over the top power consumption that plagued the original Sensation.
But then again, the extra power could be swallowed up by the improved processor, which now comes in at a whopping 1.5GHz dual core flavour. When you consider only a couple of years ago we were gasping at 1GHz phones, it’s a big leap forward.
The HTC Sensation XE does also completely outdo the original in the design stakes too; while it has the same shape and ‘striped aluminium’ design on the back, it’s now been given some red accents and a darker chassis to make it look that much edgier. We’re looking forward to holding it up when walking past gangs of youths to get the necessary respect. Read more…
