Meet The Company Behind Zynga's Fastest-Growing Business: Ads
Almost lost in Zynga's disappointing fourth-quarter earnings report was one bright spot: advertising. Ad revenues jumped 230%, to $27 million in the fourth quarter--almost four times the social gaming company's 59% rise in overall revenues. Chalk it up in part to a new, more interactive kind of ad from "engagement marketing" firm SocialVibe.

New app promises wireless sync for iPhone ? if Apple approves it (Ben Patterson)
Ben Patterson - Zune users have been able to sync their music and videos over Wi-Fi for years now — not so for patrons of the iPhone or iPod Touch, which can only sync up files via USB tethering. That said, an enterprising developer is looking to change the game when it comes to wireless iPhone and/or iPod Touch syncing ... if Apple will let him, that is.

BlackBerry's new Pearl 3G goes old-school with 14-button keypad (Ben Patterson)
Ben Patterson - What's the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to a BlackBerry? For me, it's Research In Motion's iconic QWERTY keypad, or at the very least the modified "SureType" keyboard, which crams a couple of letter keys on each number key. So it's a little jarring to get a load of RIM's new, pumped-up Pearl 3G — the first BlackBerry ever with a standard alphanumeric keypad, same as on many garden-variety cell phones.

Dangerous Problems with Counterfeit Viagra
The world, including the US, is being flooded with counterfeit Viagra and other erectile dysfunction medications. A report in the Feb 12, 2009 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine highlights the dangerous problems.
Specializing in consultation and brokerage of Electricity and Natural Gas.
New Breed Energy is a subsidiary of New Breed Telecom; an established Telecommunications agency providing international telecommunications services.
With the advent of electricity and natural gas deregulation, customers are enabled to choose energy suppliers.
In this new competitive marketplace, generation is separated from transmission and distribution. This allows consumers to choose their energy supplier, while the delivery of the energy is still regulated and is the responsibility of the local utility company.
Dedicated to sharing resources, ideas and solutions for people and businesses who want to live and work, either partially or completely Off The Grid.
For people who support Renewable Energy. For everyone who has made a commitment to reducing their carbon footprint. And, most of all; for everyone who wants to leave something better on earth for our children.
Off-the-grid
From Wikipedia
"The term off-the-grid (OTG) or off-grid refers to living in a self-sufficient manner without reliance on one or more public utilities."
"Off-the-grid homes are autonomous —they do not rely on municipal water supply, sewer, natural gas, electrical power grid or similar utility services. A true "off the grid" or "off-grid" house is able to operate completely independently of all traditional public utility services. The idea has been recently popularized by certain celebrities including Ed Begley Jr. who stars in Living With Ed television show on the Home & Garden Television network. Actress Darryl Hannah also promotes "off-grid" living and constructed her home in Colorado according to those principles."
So, what does this mean for you?
Living off the grid without reliance on public utilities for things like electricity and water is becoming increasingly more popular. If Daryl Hannah, Ed Begley and Jesse Ventura are doing it, then maybe it's something we all might consider.
Living off the grid means different thing to different people, and there are many different reasons for people to make this choice. For some it's an ethical choice to unplug from conventional energy sources. For others, it might be that they've found the perfect spot on earth and it's an easy choice to live in this liberated lifestyle
Dangerous Problems with Counterfeit Viagra
The world, including the US, is being flooded with counterfeit Viagra and other erectile dysfunction medications. A report in the Feb 12, 2009 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine highlights the dangerous problems.
The article reports on a total of 150 non-diabetic patients with severe hypoglycemia (low blood glucose) were admitted to the five public hospitals in Singapore. The admissions were between January 1 and May 26, 2008. All the patients were men except one, ages ranged from 19 to 97 years (median, 51). Seven patients remained comatose as a result of prolonged decrease glucose to the brain,and four subsequently died.
Several patients (45/150 or 30%) admitted to ingesting illegal sexual-enhancement drugs before the onset of hypoglycemia. Samples of the drugs obtained from these patients and from drugs seized in police raids were analyzed by means of high-performance liquid chromatography. It was found that many of the preparations were contaminated with Glyburide (a powerful medication used to treat diabetes).
So people thought they were taking Cialis or Viagra. What they were often taking were herbal preparations (e.g. Santi Bovine Penis ErectingCapsule) that contained small amounts of the active ingredient (Cialis or Viagra), but which also contained glyburide.
Since none of the men were diabetic, they experienced a severe drop in blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Seven men sustained serious brain damage due to low blood sugar, of which four ultimately died.
Harmful ingredients found in counterfeit medicines include boric acid, leaded road paint, floor polish, shoe polish to get the sheen on the tablet, talcum powder, cement powder, chalk and brick dust, nickel and arsenic. Any active drug ingredient is usually minimal or simply wrong – one supply batch of fake Viagra was in fact amphetamine and not Viagra (sildenafil).
Here are some signs (from eDrugStore) to help you identify illegal "generic Viagra" [Cialis or Levitra:
· The site sells "generic VIAGRA" or "generic sildenafil citrate" [Viagra does not have a generic form available.]
· The site claims to sell a cheaper form of VIAGRA
· The price is cheaper than VIAGRA, by as much as 70%
· The site claims the drug is made to World Health Organization (WHO) standards, which may be a lie. The WHO does not review or approve any medication
· The drug is sold as a pill, but looks different from VIAGRA's normal color, shape and imprinting
· Delivery times may be extended (4 -21 days) due to product being shipped into the United States from a foreign country
· Shipping is initiated using a foreign country postal service to minimize chances of detection and seizure when entering United States
