If you’re like me, one of the most annoying things that can happen when you’re on the go is having your laptop battery die. Most of the time, a notebook battery will only last about an hour and a half. With these 5 easy steps you can improve your battery life by nearly half an hour and get the most out of your laptop.

1. Watch You’re WiFi:

The wireless card in you’re laptop is a huge energy hog. If you’re not using the Internet you may want to switch the WiFi off. Most laptops have a small On/Off switch on the outside so that you can turn it off when you’re not using it, and quickly switch it back on if you need it.

2. Stay Away from CD’s and DVD’s:

Running the optical drive also uses a lot of power. It needs energy to spin the disc and power the optical laser. A normal optical drive will reduce the battery life by over half.

3. Watch for Background Programs and Processes:

Few people know that some programs will also suck up battery energy. Things like Virus scans, Games, Photoshop/Final Cut Pro, and iTunes should be closed unless you are using them.

4. Utilize you’re laptop’s Energy Management Program:

Many OS’s on laptops will come with Power Management options to help with energy consumption. You can customize these programs to lower you’re Screen Brightness, CPU Activity (So that the computer wont need to cool itself as much), and will turn your screen off after a certain period of inactivity.

5. Remove USB Devices:

They key thing to remember about USB devices is that they draw their power directly from the battery. Things like Flash Drives, Mice, and Keyboards will shorten your battery time. If you can, save things to your hard drive and detach all Flash Drives. Also, Use you’re laptop’s Keyboard and Mousepad, instead of external devices.

The summer weather is on its way and soon you’ll be at the beach. Here are some quick tips to help tone your wintered bodies, for men and women!

Have you ever heard of the term: body fat? Its a ratio of how much muscle to fat you have on your body. Take a quick trip to CholesterolNetwork - Body Fat Calculator to see how much body fat you have hanging on your body. (You will need a cloth tape measure to measure parts of your body.) Once you know how much body fat you have, you will know about how much weight you need to lose to tone that body!

Don’t stop there! Exercise is healthy! I highly advise you join a local gym (going there atleast twice a week) or buy some weights to lift at home. This alone can add years to your life (let alone– good looks.) Cardio exercises are good for your heart while weight training is good for losing fat (and many other benefits too.) Mix these up and combine several exercises every time you work out. (Running, sprinting, benching, leg exercises, chest exercises… dont forget to strech!)

Drink lots of water– the recommended amount of water you drink daily is 8, 8-ounce glasses! Next time you think about drinking soda, choose water! (Soda has lots of sugar in it…. just because its a liquid doesn’t mean you won’t gain weight from it!)

Additionally, the foods you eat play a big role on your looks. Just because you eat one meal a day does not mean you will have a toned body in no time. That would be unhealthy and make it harder for you to gain the muscle you need to get rid of these fats!

Eating foods that are low in cholesterol and fat content are what you want to be eating! It is highly reccomended that you alter what you eat on a daily basis because your metabolism needs to constantly adjust to it. If foods stay the same, your metabolism will already know how to process it. (In an analogy, its like knowing how to do something: The more you do something, the easier it becomes. If you want to lose weight, you need to alter the foods you eat so your metabolism can constantly adjust to it… forcing it to work harder!) On a side note, protein consumption is important! Protein is needed to build muscle, so eat fish, chicken, eggs, and dairy products.

Finally, a quick overview of what we talked about:

• Calculate your body fat percentage to see where you stand right now. (Set your goal to lose that body fat!)
• Exercise (atleast twice a week… do NOT do it every day!) Start small and go big. Add weight every time you lift, what ever it takes to make progress!
• Drinking lots of water is the safe way to stay hydrated.
• Eat foods that are low in cholesterol and low in fat content.
• Adjust your intake daily, to keep your metabolism changing.
• Protein is good for building muscle!

These are some simple steps to get on your way to toned body for the summer (and for the rest of your life). If your really into this article and want to read more, check out our article: Lose the weight, and keep it off.

After all, a ninjas gotta be healthy too!

So, you’re sitting on your couch playing Halo 3. Your about to make an awesome headshot when… Boom! Red Ring of Death. Well, now what? Your warranty is expired and you don’t even know what wrong with it. Well, first you can try the techniques shown in this tutorial by Java. If none of those solutions work, you can find the exact error with the following steps:

1. Turn you’re Xbox on and wait for the 3 red lights to flash.
2. Hold the small white sync up button. While holding that, press the Eject button.
3. The lights will now flash the first number of the code.(Note that 4 rings mean 1 not 4)
4. Release the eject button and press it again to show the second digit of the code. Repeat this two more times to get the last 2 digits.
5. Now take the four digit code and find it on this list:

0001 power supply problem
0002 Network Interface problem
0003 Power problem could be the PSU could be the GPU/CPU, somehow the console isn’t getting clean power from the power supply.
0010 There is a problem with the Southbridge Chip usually dealing with how it connects to the mainboard (cold solder joint/bridged solder joints)
0011 CPU over heating - If you are receiving this error after disassembling your console make sure to all 8 of the heatsinc screws are tightened securely to the board/heatsink holes.
0012 GPU over heating
0013 RAM over heating
0020 (Not yet known, possibly overheating)
0021 This can be caused by two completely different things either: A. DVD Drive Time out - Can be caused by problems with a firmware flash. This is also speculated to sometime be caused by a problem with the southbridge chipset on the motherboard based on how it connects to the DVD drive.B. GPU error, generally caused by a poor connection to the mainboard (cold solder joints/bridged solder joints) See error 102 for more information
0022 CPU error, generally caused by a poor connection to the mainboard (cold solder joints/bridged solder joints). This can also be triggered by an error with the TSOP.
0023 (not yet known)
0030 Problem with temperature control
0031 (not yet known)
0032 (not yet known)
0033 (not yet known)
0100 (not yet known)
0101 (not yet known)
0102 Error in the “Digital Backbone” (CPU/GPU/RAM), this is usually caused by a cold solder joint between the GPU and the mainboard.There are two theories to fixing this one deals with the “X” clamps that hold down the chips. The other involves re-Heating the chips. DO NOT attempt either of these if your console is still under warranty. If your console is still under warranty return it to the store where it was purchased or call MS to have it replaced. [/list]
0103 GPU Error this is usually caused by bridged solder points where the GPU connects to the mainboard. see error 0102 for more detailed information
0110 Ram error, this is caused by a cold or bridged solder joint on one of the Ram chips….
0200 (not yet known)…
1000 Kernel can’t be launched/signature in NAND Flash chip is broken! It could be possible after bad update. This might also be caused by a bad SATA cable.
1001 DVD Drive Error, either incorrect firmware or DVD Time out.
1002 (not yet known)
1003 Hard Drive Error… It could be a problem with the Hard Drive itself or a problem with the internal connection to the hard drive, Try removing the hard drive and playing without it
1010 Hard Drive Error, Can be caused buy a corrupt or missing eProm.

1011 (not yet known)
1012 (not yet known)
1013 (not yet known) possibly a dashboard update error
1020 (not yet known)
1021 (not yet known)
1022 There is high chance it’s a scaler chip problem (the “ANA” or “HANA” chip near the AV cable connection) it can also be caused by a faulty AV cable so check that first. In some cases it is a problem with the GPU and may be repairable by doing the x-clamp replacement (see error 0102)
1023 DVD drive not connected, connect DVD drive to boot
1030 This error deals with the Ethernet port’s controller chip, a dead chip may not cause the error but removing the Ethernet controller chip does, it may also be caused by other Ethernet related problems.
1031 (not yet known)
1032 (not yet known)

Thanks to the Xbox Forums for the list of error codes.
WARNING: ANY REPAIRS LISTED IN THIS TUTORIAL THAT REQUIRE YOU TO OPEN OR DISASSEMBLE YOUR CONSLE WILL VOID YOUR WARANY.

Judo is one of the most widely practiced martial arts throughout the world today. It has even proven itself worthy of entering as an Olympic sport. The combination of technique, mental ability, and power is crucial to the athletes success, and helps Judo pump out some of the best fighters known to man. The biggest organizations that Judo is in the hands of is; The international Judo Federation, The European Judo Federation, and The National Federations.

Some Background

Introduced to Japan in 1882, Judo was a revolutionary martial art that surpassed all others like it. Judo is a roll-off of Brazilian Ju Jitsu, a style in which a practitioner uses a take down on the opponent and tries to choke them, or put a hold on them to force them into submission. Judo surpassed Ju Jitsu so far, that when Japan was trying to decide their national martial art, Judo beat Ju Jitsu 13 out of 15 matches, thus claiming its title.

Principles

Judo’s main aim is to shape the human body and character together, through spiritual, moral, and physical discipline. This is done through a number of techniques and gymnastic exercises that are designed specially to foster a balanced development of the human body. The final aim is to sharpen all of the parts of the body to enable the athlete to use the maximum amount of force their body can release.

Methods

Kata and Randori are the two primary forms of Judo. “Kata”, meaning shape/form, consists of a predetermined moves that taught the basics of attack and defense. “Randori”, meaning free style, involved the fighters being grouped in pairs, as in a real match. Conditions had to be observed, however, the fighters tried not to injure each other, and the Judo ceremonial was followed.
