Remove noise while adjusting the volume controller

Have you ever encountered the loud noise when you try to adjust the volume of any speaker?
I met that a lot in my life!
That won't trouble me after today. ;)

I googled this issue from the website.
And the answer is very very simple and easy.

All you need is one Q-Tips and 1ml or less of alcohol.

1. Turn off the power, of course.
2. Use the Q-Tips and get a little alcohol on it
3. Drip the alcohol to the bottom part of the volume controller (the part connect to panel) 
4. Adjust the volume controller from the lowest part to the loudest part one or two times.
5. And guess what, the noise is gone!
6. If its still there maybe there is really some problem with your volume controller. 

Hope this helps.

Introduce Microsoft Office Live Meeting

Today I participated one Microsoft event.

It requires the participants to download Microsoft Office Live Meeting.

After looking over the functions and some features, I decided to write this article to let the other similar products have a standard or idea to follow.

This is the screenshot after I logged in.

The feedback part. I think this one is brilliant and useful. Use different color to indicate different requirement.

But for now, I think microsoft only leverage the Need Help.

The Attendees, display the attendees as a virtual meeting room.

You can also view the other attendees's name in this function.

The Shared Notes. I think this is also a good idea to share some notes to the other attendees.

The Handouts. I think this part is good, too. But unfortunately, I was not able to see this part any more during the session.

Q&A, this one many products offered, too. But it is more like a real situation, you raise your hand, and ask questions.

The Meeting, a summarized information of this meeting, press Exit if you want to escape from the meeting .

 

Voice & Video, I can control the volume my self.

 

Conclusion

Technology really helps and changes our life a lot.

I personally would recommend any business leverage Microsoft solution for the remote meeting purpose.

As of the other similar products, please include at least all the functions Microsoft provided.

~Weilin~網友，您好


您所反應的問題，為Motorola Bluetooth驅動引起Word發生錯誤狀況，相關單位已
與廠商協調修改驅動程式。
在此同時，建議您可以於WOLD 2010內選擇 檔案 > 選項 > 增益集 > 下面管理 >
選擇COM 增益集 > 執行 > Send to Bluetooth不勾 > 確定，以解決此問題。

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview Review

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview is released for a while.

I just installed it on my old Acer TM3274 which was previous installed Windows 7.

Today I'll introduce you some of noticable functions which I feel special.  

Start

The start now is a very Big one.  And for those with big icon and background color these are the new UI called Metro UI.

Not only display the icon but also show some information based on the apps.

As of the others, these are the traditional program which will go back to desktop and run on that screen. And you can arrange the icons the way you like, and it will automatically generate a gap to distinguish the groups.

Store

Just like the other apps store, I think there will be more and more apps on this store.

Xbox Live games

This should be able to connect to your xbox live account, but I think mine has some problem with it.

Just display an error code to me. And this is just a consumer preview, isn't it?

Maps

With full screen map, this is really convenient and you can see a lot of things. I think no need to have a high resolution screen or bigger panel after the Windows 8.

Internet Explorer

This is the Metro UI IE, the traditional IE still can be found on the desktop. Note that the URL is below instead on the top now.

Press the pin, and you'll see there is a Pin to Start option here.

After you pinned it, it will be displayed under Pinned.

Desktop

And the first thing I was very confusing is how do I switch my program? Alt+Tab is a good idea. But what about the touch tablet?  The answer is in the bottom right corner. Try to move your mouse (or finger I guess) to the bottom right. And you'll see the Search, Share, Start (This is the way you go back), Device and Setting.

Setting, More PC Settings

There was a picture password, which you can have 3 points in sequence as your password. I think this is very convenient for those who use the panel.

But after I switched to live messenger account, the option is no longer exist now.

Conclusion

According to these improvements, I think Microsoft finally done something right.

With Metro UI, and full screen apps, I think people will really attracted by  Windows 8.

Especially those who don't have any tablet yet and familiar with Windows.

美公路設充電站 駕駛免驚沒電

中央社 – 2012年3月17日 下午8:34 中央社俄勒岡州16日綜合外電報導）將電動車開上俄勒岡州5號州際公路（I-5）的駕駛，以後不用再戰戰兢兢，擔心車子在寬敞的公路上開到沒電了。自加拿大西岸延伸至墨西哥的5號州際公路，沿線260公里所設置的一系列快速充電站今天正式啟用，成為美國首條主要「電動車高速公路」。8個充電站分布於加州北部邊境至俄勒岡州卡蒂奇格羅夫市（Cottage Grove）之間，主要設置於I-5這條美國第2繁忙州際公路外的加油站、餐廳及旅館附近。充電站間隔約40公里，因此航程約110公里的日產電動車Leaf即使錯過1處充電站，仍可撐到下個充電站。充電時間約20分鐘，且目前免費。Leaf車主丹利（Justin Denley）估計，從俄勒岡州麥德福（Medford）到波特蘭（Portland），開電動車大概會比汽油車多花3小時，因為設置於後段160公里路上的充電器速度比較慢。I-5自加拿大卑詩省（British Columbia）延伸至下加利福尼亞州（Baja California），全長2170公里。今年底前，I-5沿線約885公里將增設新的快速充電站。遠至離俄勒岡州最大城波特蘭195公里附近地段，目前正在設置另外22個充電站。I-5並非美國首條電動車高速公路。田納西州數條連接納希維爾（Nashville）、諾克斯市（Knoxville）及查塔努加（Chattanooga）的州際公路，去年就出現電動車充電站網絡，包括12處快速充電站，全長共700公里。（譯者：中央社蔡佳伶）1010317

一定要辦的聯票金卡

好康相報!!!
轉載：
前二天陪米爾頓一起去打壘球，遇到煌彬兄聊到動物園，他說他朋友有辦年票，對於我們常去的人很划算 ~
一聽到的反應是「蝦米? 」，從阿棒出生到現在，去動物園少說至少也 50 次以上了，從來沒聽過有年票 ???

每次進動物園都是刷悠遊卡就直接進去，從來沒去過售票口，
所以今天早上帶阿乖去動物園，特別到售票口看個仔細....
可是上面根本沒寫有什麼年票呀，該不會是被唬了吧 ? 但想說還是問看看解決一下疑惑也好 !
沒想到一問，吼 ~~ 真的有這種東西耶 !!!
而且有二個重點讓我想噴火 !!!!
重點一 ：年票全年只要 300 元，不限入園次數 ( 機車，一年只要去 5 次就回本了，我之前到底是虧了多少錢XD !)
重點二 ：持本卡於有效期間內可無限次數免購門票進去　動物園、美術館、兒童育樂中心、天文科學教育館　！！！！！！
看到這裡我想應該很多人跟我一樣心裡在罵髒話，
這些地方都是我們平常常在跑的地點，竟然只要年票一張 300 就可以全部打發，真的很吐血啦 ~~~
我問售票人員為什麼沒聽過這種卡，她很客氣的說「因為沒有主動推廣」 !!
X !!!!!! 阿不就還好有煌彬兄的告知，不然我還不知要當冤大頭多少年咧 ><
各位親朋好友們，竟然他們不主動推廣，那我們就自己推廣吧，大家有去的話記得辦喔 ~~~~~
