Hay un par de cosas que se pueden hacer en momentos de graves emergenias. Tu celular puede actualmente ser un salvavidas o un instrumento para supervivencia.
Chequeate las cosas que puedes hacer con el:
PRIMERO:
Emergencia - El Número de Emergencias para Celulare
mundialmente para Celulares es 112. Si tu te
encuentras fuera del area de cobertura en tu
celular/network y hay una emergencia, marca el 112 y
tu celular buscará cualquier network existente para
establecer el número de emergencia para ti, e
interesantemente, este número 112 puede ser marcado
aun cuando tengas las teclas blockeadas. Trátalo!
SEGUNDO:
Has dejado tus llaves encerradas en el auto? Tiene tu
carro seguro de remoto sin llave? Esto puede ser de
utilidad algún dia. Buena razón para tener un
celular: Si dejas tus llaves en el carro y la
repuesta de la llave está en casa, llama a alguien a
su celular desde el tuyo. Sostén el celular desde
aproximadamente un pie (12') de tu auto, has que la
persona desde el otro celular presione el botón de
'unlock, pegado al celular. A su auto se le quitará
el seguro de la puerta!
Esto evita tener que alguien tenga que llegar hasta
donde está, ahorrándole tiempo. La distancia no es
ningún obstáculo. Puedes estar cientos de millas de
distancia, y si puedes contactar a alguien por cell, y
que puede tener el otro 'remoto' de su auto, puedes
quitar seguros de las puertas y hasta abrir el baúl de
su auto. Nota del editor: 'Esto funciona perfecto!
Nosotros lo probamos y quitó los seguros de nuestro
auto por el celular!'
TERCERO:
Carga Escondida Bateria - Imagínese que su celular
tiene la bateria bien bajita en carga. Para activar
la carga, presione las teclas *3370# Su celular
re-comenzará con esta reserva y el instrumento
mostrará un incremento en la bateria de un 50%. Esta
reserva se cargará nuevamente, cuando usted ponga a
cargar el celular la próxima vez.
CUARTO:
¿Cómo inactivar un celular ROBADO? Para verificar el
número de serie de tu celular, marca en el los
siguientes dígitos: * # 0 6 # Un código de 15
dígitos aparecerá en la pantalla. Este número es
único para su celular. Anote este número y manténgalo
a la mano en un lugar seguro.
De ser robado su celular, puedes llamar a su Proveedor
de Servicios y darles este código.. Ellos podrán
entonces bloquear su unidad, para que aún cuando los
ladrone cambien la tarjeta del SIM, su unidad será
completamente inutilisable. Quizás no obtengas tu
unidad devuelta, pero al menos sabrás que quien lo
robó no podrá usar/venderlo tampoco. Si todo hicieran
esto, ya no habría ninguna razón para que la gente
robe celulares.
Y Finalmente.....
QUINTO:
Las compañias de Celulares están haciendo un cargo de
$1.00 a $1.75 por las llamadas para información al
411, cuando no deberían hacerlo. La mayoría de
nosotros no andamos con una guía telefónica en
nuestros autos, y menos si estamos en un pueblo o
ciudad lejos de casa. Esto hace que la situación sea
mas problemática. Cuando necesites utillizar el
servicio de información (411) simplemente marca:
1-800-FREE-411 ó 1-800-373-3411y no incurrirás en
ningún cargo a tu celular. Programa esto en el
directorio de tu unidad ahora. Así lo tendrás
disponible en todo momento!
Este es el tipo de información que a la gente no le
molesta recibir, asi que siéntete libre de pasarlo a
tus familiares y amigos. Asi como lo hice yo contigo!

Girl commits suicide after spat over food
That little girl must of been one fat slob
LOL!
But she's stupid for taking her own life just because of that.
Sheesh!

An 11-year-old girl committed suicide following a quarrel with her younger brother at dinner, police said Monday.
Vineesha, along with her younger and elder brothers, was having dinner Sunday night when she had an argument with her younger brother, who apparently got a bigger portion of food than her, said police.
'She was very upset and angry and went to the adjacent room and locked herself. We received a call at around 9 p.m. that the girl had committed suicide by hanging herself,' a police official said.
The girl was a resident of Ambedkar Nagar in south Delhi and her father works as a private security guard.

Derek Jeter
Athlete, professional baseball player. Born Derek Sanderson Jeter on June 26, 1974, in Pequannok, New Jersey. From an early age, Jeter showed that he had all the makings of a baseball great. In his senior year at Kalamazoo Central High School, he won several national sports awards. He was named the 1992 High School Player of the Year by the American High School Coaches Association, the 1992 Gatorade High School Athlete of the Year, and USA Today's High School Player of the Year.
After graduation, Jeter was picked by the New York Yankees in June 1992 draft. He first played in the minor leagues, hitting .295 with five home runs in the 1993 season. And Jeter's performance on the field only improved the next year. In 1994, he was selected as Minor League Player of the Year by several publications, including The Sporting Newsand Baseball America.
In 1995, Jeter got his first shot at the major leagues when Yankees shortstop Tony Fernandez was put on the disabled list. Jeter made his debut on May 29 against the Seattle Mariners. The next year, in his first full season as a major league baseball player, he batted .314 with 10 home runs. The skilled shortstop also performed well in the infield-his fielding percentage was .969. He helped the Yankees win the World Series against the Atlanta Braves. Jeter won the 1996 American League Rookie of the Year Award for that season.
Jeter has been an outstanding player in the major leagues since his rookie season. He helped the Yankees with more World Series wins in 1998, 1999, and 2000. In 2000, Jeter was named Most Valuable Player in the World Series and the All-Star Game. He also received Gold Glove Awards in 2004 and in 2005 for his performance on the field. As a consistently strong athlete, he has earned the respect and admiration of coaches, sports commentators, peers, and fans. So far Jeter has a career battling average of .316 and average fielding percentage of .975. In 2009, Jeter passed Lou Gehrig's record with this 2,722nd hit — the most in franchise history.
Off the field, Jeter has garnered a lot of attention for his quiet confidence and good looks. He has appeared in numerous commercials and signed a deal with Avon Products, Inc., in 2006 to create a fragrance for men called Driven.
Jeter has also used his celebrity and his prominent position as a sports star to help children. In 1996, he established the Turn 2 Foundation to encourage young people to be healthy and academically successful, to become leaders, and to stay away from drugs and alcohol. The foundation supports and creates programs to achieve these goals.

Oz mom who died for 12 mins after heart attack comes back to life
An Australian mother who was left brain dead for up to 12 minutes after heart attack has surprised doctors by surviving from the cardiac arrest with no brain damage.
Kirsty Liddell, 36, from Melbourne, was in an induced coma for five days and needed five heart bypasses after a build-up of cholesterol in her arteries caused the attack on April 30.
Her husband Peter, a partner at KPMG, was the first to rush to his wife's side when she collapsed in their Beaconsfield home while two of their daughters, aged 4 and 6, watched on.
Four days after the attack, MonashHeart director Prof Ian Meredith told Peter that scans suggested another heart attack was imminent, and they would need to bring forward the highly risky open-heart surgery.
"They weren't confident that she'd survive the next heart attack, and while it increased the likelihood of complications there was no choice," News.com.au quoted Peter as saying.
Over eight hours, with her heart stopped and a bypass machine keeping her alive, surgeon cut through her breastbone to replace five diseased coronary arteries.
The surgery was a success, but it wasn't until she awoke in the ward on Mother's Day that doctors could be certain she had suffered no brain damage.

Russian woman dies from heart attack after waking up at her own funeral
A Russian woman who had been wrongly declared deceased by doctors died for real from a heart attack caused by shock after waking up to discover she was being prepared for burial.
As mourning relatives filed past her open coffin the supposedly dead woman suddenly woke up and started screaming as she realized where she was.
Fagilyu Mukhametzyanov, 49, died again after hearing mourners saying prayers for her soul to be taken up to heaven in Kazan, Russia.
Devastated husband Fagili Mukhametzyanov, 51, had been told his wife had died of a heart attack after she'd collapsed at home suffering from chest pains.
"Her eyes fluttered and we immediately rushed her back to the hospital but she only lived for another 12 minutes in intensive care before she died again, this time for good," the Daily Mail quoted Mukhametzyanov as saying.
"I am very angry and want answers. She wasn't dead when they said she was and they could have saved her," he said.

Blind People Are Faking It!
Citizens, hear us well. Our great nation isbeing undermined by a secret society of
individuals who carry deadly white truncheons and lead vicious attack
animals in public on a daily basis. These
mysterious folk also have a secret means of
communication, while shocking new evidence seems to indicate that
they may even possess senses superior to those
>of other humans. We're speaking, of course, of
the legions of the so-called blind.
Let's assume for a minute that we swallow this
"blindness" hoax in the first place. If these
people are somehow bereft of the gift of sight, how does that
explain the works of Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles
and Ronnie Milsap? How could such men possibly
play music if they were blind? What do they take us for-ignorant
saps?
The first issue I must point out is their very
public display of armed might. Every individual
laying claim to sightlessness carries a cudgel on their person
at all times. These "canes," as they call them,
are supposed to help them feel their way along.
They are painted white, almost as if the bearer wished
to remind passersby of its presence, and the
weapon's tip is painted a chillingly suggestive
red. Those who have studied the mysterious fighting arts of
the Orient know that such sticks may be wielded
with deadly force by those with skill. In a
surprise attack, strategically placed squads of the "blind"
could quickly overwhelm our police forces.
Their fearsome nature encompasses more than just
personal weaponry. Many of the alleged blind
also own large, vicious attack dogs for the supposed purpose
of guidance along city streets. With one word
from their scheming masters, these slavering
"guide" dogs could become guided missiles!
Indeed, most of these fearsome beasts are German
shepherds, a species of killer wolf invented by
twisted, Fascist dog breeders, which has somehow fallen
into this most suspect faction of the disabled.
The most frightening aspect of this diabolical
conspiracy by far is their ability to
communicate with one another unbeknownst to upstanding citizens. Their
secret code consists of a series of raised dots
cunningly arranged into arcane shapes. Known as
"Braille," this demonic alphabet has begun popping up in
places that were doubtlessly chosen for their
mundane, everyday outward appearance: elevators,
building directories, automated teller machines and the like.
This system seems rational enough, and does not
attract undue attention. But think! If the
messages on the signs changed suddenly, how would we know? Next
year, next month, next week, maybe even
tomorrow, the signs will change from "second
floor" to "STRIKE NOW! STRIKE HARD!" and our nation will be thrown
into the chaos of revolution.
At this juncture, there is no hard evidence that
the blind are planning such a revolution. We
hope to have such evidence very soon. But can one group possess
such an overwhelming element of surprise and
fail to use it to seize power? And can their goals be anything but evil?
No, I say! I maintain that true blindness lies
in failing to see the threat where it must
obviously lie, and we must be vigilantly wary of the blind menace.
Lol!

Code Factory releases TV Speak in the USA
Code Factory is proud to announce the release in the USA of its new software application, TV Speak. After almost a decade making mobile phones accessible to the blind and visually impaired, Code Factory has decided to move from small to big screen and expand its expertise in accessibility to television.
TV Speak is an application to be installed on a computer equipped to receive a digital television signal. Through speech output and magnification, TV Speak allows people who are blind or have low vision to use the most common functionality of digital terrestrial television in a fully accessible way.
“The way people watch television is changing. In the near future we will all use television to access the web and consume multimedia content and digital information. Blind people cannot be left out of this new world of possibilities. Therefore television has to be accessible and TV Speak is our first contribution in this field” explains Eduard Sánchez, Code Factory’s CEO.
With TV Speak people who are blind or have low vision can:
• Access the Electronic Program Guide (EPG).
• While watching TV, consult information about the current or next program.
• Select audio channels to choose one providing an audio description.
• Schedule and record programs (image + audio, or audio only) based on the EPG information.
• Tune and order television and radio channels.
• Configure both television and TV Speak parameters.
• Enable parental control settings.
• Execute basic TV operations such as change channel, adjust volume, etc.
To use TV Speak you need a computer running Windows (Windows 7, Vista or XP), a TV tuner card, and a TV antenna cable adapted for digital terrestrial television (either portable or that plugs into a TV socket). The tuner will make the connection between your computer and the TV antenna. One side of the tuner has a USB port to plug into your computer and the other side has a plug to connect to the antenna. In other words, the TV antenna cable is connected to the TV tuner, which in turn is connected to the PC via a USB port. In this way you can watch TV through your computer and you don’t actually need to use your television screen. However if you wish you can direct the audio and video output of TV Speak to your TV monitor and use a wireless keyboard to control the TV.
TV Speak is a product that Code Factory has been developing in partnership with ONCE, the Spanish national association for the blind.
When you install TV Speak for the first time, it will automatically work for 30 days for free. Once the demo expires, you will be asked for a license number. To purchase TV Speak in the US, please contact HandyTech North America by email at info@handytech.usor by phone at 651-636-5184. You can also visit the HandyTech North America webpage at http://www.handytech.us/. For any questions about TV Speak, feel free to send an email to info@handytech.us.
If this summer you are attending the NFB and ACB conventions, stop by the HandyTech North America booth, ask Earle to show you TV Speak in action and enter in the draw to win free licenses.
