Company of Heroes' Review

One of the best game that I ever played that portrays reality is Company of Heroes. With a high video quality and realistic sound, Company of Heroes will definitely run your imagination of what it really means to be at war.

But what I like the most inside the game is the very realistic movements of the characters.You will see medics gathering the wounded soldiers, the sporadic bullet lights inside while under fire, the blowing away of soldiers with granade and other bomb weapons including tanks not to mention the sticky bombs of the Allied powers. Plus a very detailed graphics when zoomed.

Accompanied the reliastic actions is the realistic sound effects. It's sound adds to the intensity of the gaming experience. You will hear realistic sound of bombing, machine guns, and even pistols.

However, the only thing that I don't like in this game is the very limited amount of troops that can produce. If they only allow an unlimited number of units that can be produced, this game will might take over Starcraft.

Have you ever received a letter from a dying widow who have a huge amount of money and has no heir? And that she wants you to be the benefactor of a huge donation? Are you familiar with this kind of letter?

Dear Beloved In Christ,

We were married for eleven years without a child due my fibriod problem. He died after a brief illness that lasted for only four days.Before his death we were both born again Christian. Since his death I have decided not to remarry or get a child outside my matrimonial home . When my late husband was alive we deposited the sum of $5.5Million (USD) dollars in a Security Firm.Presently the money is still in the Security Firm. Recently, my Doctor told me that I would not last for the next Four months due to cancer problem. From all indications, my condition is really deteriorating and is quite obvious that I may not live more than two months, because the cancer stage has gotten to a very dangerous stage . Having known my condition I decided to donate this fund to good person that will utilize this money the way I am going to instruct herein.

I want to you use at last 80% this fund for orphanages, widows and and also propagating the word of God and to endeavor that the house of God is maintained and take the remaining 20% to take good care of your good God Given Home. l took this decision because I don't have any child that will inherit this money . This is why I am taking this decision to donate this fund for charity. I am not afraid of death hence I know where I am going. I know that I am going to be in the bosom of the Lord.Exodus 14 VS 14 says that "the lord will fight my case and I shall hold my peace".

I don't need any telephone communication in this regard because of my health .My happiness is that I lived a life of a worthy Christian. Whoever that Wants to serve the Lord must serve him in spirit and Truth, always be prayerful all through your life.

Hoping to receive your response immedaitely.

Thanks and Remain blessed in the Lord.

Mrs Lisia Manuel

If you are, please be advice that this is most probably another form of scam letter. Their approach is getting your compassionate heart to help and grant the noble request of taking good care of the poor and needy. They will ask for your bank account to transfer the money, and ask you to send some amount so that they will be able to make the bank transfer as a form of bank charge.

This letter might be appealing to Christian organizations. But beware. Open your eyes and be vigilant. Don't look at the temptation of money. Don't be scammed.

A Google Earth Feedback

I was fascinated with the features of Google Earth. I would say that Google always deliver a good source of information. And now even the geographical information of the world. I love Google, and I am definitely a fanatic of Google.

What's with Google Earth?

Not only that you can see any location in the world via satellite imagery, you can also see the historical imagery of certain places in the world. You can also explore the ocean floor and discover lots of things in it.

Some Issues That You May Face When You Use Ubuntu

To my dismay however, I have some issues concerning Google Earth. I am using Ubuntu Intrepid Linux on an Acer Aspire 4330 Laptop.

They say that this works in Ubuntu, but in my experience, it doesn't work that well. The graphics is too choppy and its like huge pixilize imagery. Sometimes it even crashes and cannot be played.

I don't know if I missed something from the system requirement of Linux below. If ever I did, I do hope someone will be able to explain me.

Minimum:

• Kernel: 2.4 or later

• glibc: 2.3.2 w/ NPTL or later

• XFree86-4.0 or x.org R6.7 or later

• CPU: Pentium 3, 500Mhz

• System Memory (RAM): 256MB

• Hard Disk: 400MB free space

• Network Speed: 128 Kbits/sec

• Graphics Card: 3D-capable with 16MB of VRAM - Screen: 1024x768, "16-bit High Color" screen

Recommended:

• Kernel 2.6 or later

• glibc 2.3.5 w/ NPTL or later

• x.org R6.7 or later

• System Memory (RAM): 512MB

• Hard Disk: 2GB free space

• Network Speed: 768 Kbits/sec

• Graphics Card: 3D-capable with 32MB of VRAM

• Screen: 1280x1024, 32 bit color

Tested on Ubuntu version 6.06, but certainly works on others.

A better way to Internet

Notice these things which are very common to scammers. I also gave some simple tips and synopsis to avoid being scammed.

1. The email addressed used. Whenever you receive an email like this, look first the email address used. For example if it say that it comes from LG, then its email address should be like: name@lg.com. It is most likely that famous companies like LG, Paypal, Samsung etc, will use their website email addresses rather than use other email address like yahoo, gmail, msn, and even peoplepc etc. 

2. Analyze the content. See if the content says that you won a big amount of money from automated lottery and draws. Always remeber, a ligitimate lottery is most of the time a form of business. Meaning you have to bet first, or at least buy something from a certain company whether online or offline before you can join their lottery. Without any investment, even just a time investment, most likely it is a scam even if it explain that your email has been automatically added. 

I never bought an LG product in my entire life yet. 

Furthermore, internet companies like Google, Yahoo, MSN, AOL etc, can be sued legally if they will give away your email without your consent. And most likely, you are the one who is suppose to distribute your own email address and not these internet companies. 

3. Notice the email of the person to be contacted. Like the number 1 tip, ligitimate business use a reliable email address, bearing the name of the company as its signature email. 

4. If it will ask you further information like name, address, contact number, other email addresses, etc, this is most likely a scam who wants to gather personal information to hack. Sometimes, they use your information for illegal activities. 

5. Don't ever send money as payment for extra fees so that they can send your big sum of money through bank. Ligitimate draws are most likely free of charge when they send you money, or at least, all fees should be deducted from the amount you won. 

I hope that Peoplepc.com will try to investigate and trace who uses their company's name as sender of this email. 

We need to be very vigilant concerning emails like this. I just checked the Scam email database and I found out that there are some users who uses peoplepc.com but there is "NO" report yet of this email. So this might be new. BEWARE.

Welcome Solar Powered Phone: Blue Earth of Samsung

Even cellphone companies are now thinking green. Why not? Now that our world is facing lots of problems with global warming and economic crisis, it is only reasonable that we go to alternative renewable energy. It might be a little pricy now but I think this will be a good investment in the long run.

The Blue Earth of Samsung is built out of recycled water bottles. It also has a pedometer that tells you how many trees that you saved by walking instead of driving. It is the first touch screen phone with a solar panel at the back of the phone but without sacrificing the camera feature.

The solar panel is said to run the phone for 3 minutes in 10 minutes charging time using the solar panel. Not bad at all, especially in times that you have runned out of batteries.

In addition, Blue Earth has a widget-friendly TouchWiz interface and dedicated Talk and End buttons. It also comes with Bluetooth, Eco Mode and Eco Walk.

The price, internal storage capacity, media features and other data capabilities is not yet disclosed. I will be waiting for its coming updates.
