Let me google that for you!

Hello readers, today I came across a rather neat site that I thought I should share with you.

It’s called let me Google that for you, and it’s rather neat. You go to the site and enter in search terms. Then it gives you a link, and when you go over to that link, it shows an animation and searches it for you in Google.

A great site, Mediafire !

Today I come to you about a site I’ve been using for a while, but thought that I should share it. The site is mediafire. In my opinion the best free hosting service available. Mediafire allows unlimited uploads (only limited to 100mb per file), and you can upload any type of file. It even has a feature that allows you to encrypt your files with a password so only some people can download it (to be 100% secure, once the other person confirms they have downloaded it, change the password). Lastly, you do not even need to sign up an account to host files (it’s free so you might as well though). You do, however need an account to maintain the files. Anyway, here’s the link:

http://www.mediafire.com Nice job on finding the hidden message =)

How to defeat blocks on websites

It is very simple to defeat blocks placed on websites by parents, countries, schools, etc. You just need to know what a ‘proxy’ is and what to use them. And, how to keep ahead of the administrators.

A proxy is a website that allows you to get around filtering. What it does, in layman’s terms, is go and get information from a site and pass it to the end user (you). Your school network will show up as you being on the proxy’s URL, when in fact you are on another site altogether. The only way they can tell exactly what site you are on is to be watching your computer (if they have the ability to, which if they don’t you need a new tech team) or physical being there. That sums up what a proxy is and how it works.

It is very easy to get a proxy site. What is hard is keeping up with the blocking power of your school. The easiest way to do this is to go for new proxies, and only use the same one for a week tops. I suggest you change the site your using every 2 days (that clock starts the first time you use it).

There is a site online where you can get new proxies all the time, at a rate of about 25 per day, and I promise that 95% of those will work the day they come out (going down by about 10% per day).

The site is www.proxy.org. In order to view the new proxies you need to have an account, which is free. Just sign up and then you’ll have access to the page forever. Copy the 50 newest sites, print it out and take it to school with you. The ‘best proxies’ are blocked, I guarantee, so you will need the new ones. You’ll also find most of them end in with .info. Why? It’s a cheaper domain than .com.

Thanks for reading.

School uniforms - the continual fight

had a school assignment that I had to argue in favor or against school uniforms, I choose against and this is what I found.

Against School Uniforms - The Continual Fight

Violates human rights – Tinker v. Des Moines Independent School – court ruled in 1969 that a student’s freedom of expression must be protected unless it would seriously interfere with the requirements of appropriate discipline.

Notre Dame published a study on grade 10 students and found that uniforms have no direct effect on “substance abuse, behavioral problems or attendance”. Also, a negative effect was found on students considered “pro-school”.

Uniforms cost more in the long run – Because now you need to buy all the pieces of the school outfit (At least 2 sets,1 isn’t going to do), and street clothes. Another point – Once you leave school your uniform has no point. Street clothes however, can still be worn. Again, it’s cheaper in the long run to not buy uniforms.

Under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, “…Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression". This is the world-wide law, although not upheld in some countries, In Canada it is accepted & upheld.

“Freedom of speech” was found in the Magna Carta, a charter signed by King John of England (the infamous “prince john” of the Robin Hood era) to ensure that people under him where treated fairly. Similar to freedom of expression.

Thanks for reading, have a nice day now.

Random facts you'll never need to know!

Disclaimer Not all facts can be guaranteed.

Odontophobia is the fear of teeth.

A polar bear's skin is black, to absorb the sun.

The Egyptians used croc dung as a contraceptive in 2000 BCE.

The Neanderthal's brain was bigger than the homosapien's brain is (and had a higher capacity as well!).

One million goldfish bowls full of water = one stadium full of water.

There are 178 (on average) sesame seeds on each McDonalds burger bun.

Cockroaches can live without a head (some people say 4 days, some 9, and even as much as 28, if you have information let me know).

If you drove at 100 m/ph, it would take 29 million years to reach the nearest star.

Hey, cigarette supporters, check this one out: The first recorded time of a man quiting smoking was on April 5, 1679, when Johan Katsu, Sheriff of Turku, Finland, wrote this in his diary: "I quit smoking tobacco." He was dead about a month later.

The "cat" is not mentioned in the bible.

How many animals have 4 knees? 1. The humble elephant.

A duck's quack doesn't echo. No one knows why.

The female name, "Wendy", first appeared in 'Peter Pan'.

I bet you can't make a complete sentence with only four letters. I can.

In Scotland, a new game was invented. It was called Gentlemen Only Ladies Forbidden.... and the word GOLF entered into the English language.

The Roman Catholic Church did not acknowledge that the earth revolves around the sun until the mid 1990’s.

The average American eats 60 hot dogs a year, or about one every 6 days.

Every year, the moon moves another .5 an inch further from the earth. In the average person's lifetime, this is about 30-40 inches.

Facts about facebook!

I have decided to write a blog with some fast facts about the people to use facebook. Facebook provides this information for free to everyone, if you know where to look ;)

DISCLAIMER: This is based on what people signed up as, and
therefore has a margin of error. I cannot guarantee exact
numbers.

Did you know that...

About 1 in 3 people living in Canada have a Facebook account,
compared to 1 in 10 of those who live in the USA.

An addition to the above: There are about 9m Canadian facebook accounts, and about 35m American ones.

There are a little over 500k men from South Africa, with almost 600k women.

There are 13.8m accounts registered in the UK, of which 44% are listed as men.

In Spain, 1.6m users are listed as over 18, and 16% of those are 'single'.

China has only 275k people (this is probably because of the blocking of free speech)

Less than 0.01% of people living in china have a Facebook account.

2.2m accounts in the US are owned by males in high school (which is about .75% of the us population).

Germany has about 1.1m facebook accounts, of which 475k are males, and 575k are female.

General facts:

Most facebook users are over 18 (apx. 2 in 3), however a lot of people lied about their age when they signed up, so this is probably a false statistic.

The US has about 30% of all accounts, the UK has about 18%, and Canada 14%. This accounts for more than half of all users.

More people on facebook are female than male (47-48/52-53 split is my estimate)

A small percentage of users don't have a gender listed (less than 5%)

3 Simple pranks that anyone can do

I decided to make a quick post about pranks and 3 easy & quick ones you can do. Also, if you actually do any of these and get in trouble, that's your problem not mine. I didn't force you to prank or even read this article.

1) Grab a bunch of condiment packets (ketchup/mustard/etc) and place them into people's shoes. You can alternatively tape them to the bottom of the shoes.

2) Make a bunch of signs that read "out of order". You'd be surprised and how much someone would be fooled by a sign. Another sign you can make is "use other door". Place them on every exit and watch people running around trying to find an available door (be one of those people, or at least pretend to avoid getting caught)

3) Sign someone up for as many thing you can - E-mail newsletters, real newsletters. Junk Mail wars are always fun. If you can get an army recruiter on someone's case they'll just hate you.

Something you can do if you really want to:

If you can afford the advertising fees, advertise a job at your school/workplace that doesn't actually exist. Be sure to include the fax number of your school with which to send resumes. Pay cash for the ad and try to include as little as possible when they ask for your information.

Hope you enjoyed reading, and remember that this is for humor purposes only and not to be actually carried out.
