<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Hello! Just comes out a Windows version of Pwnage. The application allows you to unlock your iPhone with 2.0.1 Firmware. The program create custom firmware and after that one thing you gotta do it's install this custom firmware to your iPhone via iTunes. It's really easy and seems like single way to unlock iPhone 2.0.1 for any careers. The cons of this Winpwn is no ways to unlock new iPhone 3G - the same as Pwnage. The developers still didn't do that. But many people hope it will unlock iPhone 3G soon. Maybe next versions of WinPwn.</p>

<p><a href="http://empowermentinstitute.com.au">http://empowermentinstitute.com.au</a><br />
South Central Los Angeles is one of the toughest neighborhoods in America! At the age of 10 Eric was told that he would die on those very streets. Born with a devastating bone disease in both knees and with no access to decent medical services to correct the problem, he faced incredible odds to elevate himself to a brighter future. Daily he had to deal with racism, drug infested surroundings, gang violence, low socio-economic conditions, and a school system that said he would never graduate from school.</p>
<p>The turning point came at age 14 when Eric began to plan his future. Not by saying, but by doing. Training every morning and studying every evening. He tried out for the Basketball team at school and went on to take his high school basketball team to its first and only state Championship!</p>
<p>Eric planned, was persistent, and had passion. Because of those three ingredients he received a Basketball scholarship to Boise State University and graduated with a bachelor in marketing and communications.</p>
<p>Eric came to Australia in 1982 to play basketball in the National Basketball League. He played with the Hobart Devils, Melbourne Tigers, and Gold Coast Rollers. During that time he worked in many customer driven businesses such as sales, promotions, fitness, media, marketing, basketball coaching, and health industries.</p>
<p>After retiring from basketball Eric decided to direct his passion into motivating and activating people. One of his first roles was to be the host of the NBA ALL STAR weekend Jam session, the first person to be brought in from outside the USA.</p>
<p>Here he was able to combine his communication skills, marketing, sport, and energy to actively energize over 100,000 people over a three day weekend.</p>
<p>Eric worked hand in hand with the big names of sport and entertainment. Michael Jordan, Julius "Dr. J" Erving, Venus Williams, Jamie Foxx, Evander Holyfield, Tyra Banks, the list goes on.....</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Scenario: </strong>In order to be more effective in removing viruses; anti-virus program must be updated daily through Internet; what if you don't have an Internet but you have an original anti-virus program?</p>
<p><strong>Here's how to do it:</strong></p>
<p>1. First of, in order to start with this procedure make sure you have a valid username and password from your Anti-virus program; for instance Panda Anti-virus's Activation Code.</p>
<p>2. This is the Site that you are going to enter: http://www.pandasecurity.com/homeusers/downloads/clients.</p>
<p>3. In this Page you will find the Virus Signature File. Below that is the link of the file which named the DATE OF THE LATEST virus definition file.</p>
<p>4. Save the file in any folder first before placing to where it should be (e.g. My Documents).</p>
<p>5. Once downloading is done, copy the file from the folder you have placed the virus definition file and then paste it to this folder C:\Program Files\Panda Security\Panda Antivirus 2008, where drive C: is my default drive where my Panda Anti-virus program was located. Some of you may have placed it somewhere else. If that is the case just replace the C: Drive to any Drive you have installed your Panda Anti-virus Program.</p>
<p>Note; If for instance you cannot PASTE to the said folder due to sharing violation or used file, what I want you to do is restart your PC and load it to SAFE MODE. Repeat the procedure by copying and pasting it to where it belong.</p>
<p>That's it.</p>

The final versio]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It looks like the iPhone Dev Team are fixing the very last bugs of Pwnage Tool 2.0.</p>
<p>The final version of Pwnage Tool 2.0 will support:</p>
<ol>
<li>iPhone (1st Gen) - Activated, Unlocked &#38; Jailbroken, (with support for third party apps)</li>
<li>iPod Touch with 2.0 - Activated &#38; Jailbroken, (with support for third party apps)</li>
<li>iPhone (3G) with 2.0 - Activated, Jailbroken (with support for third party apps)</li>
</ol>
<p>Although the iPhone 3G can be pwned and activated <strong>IT CAN NOT BE UNLOCKED</strong>.</p>
<p>The iPhone Dev Team tells us to "fasten our seatbelts" in preparation for the release. This is definitely good news for people with unlocked iPhones who want to upgrade to 2.0 (like me).</p>
<p>NOTE: I will be posting a video on my blog of me upgrading to the new 2.0 firmware. If you are not sure on how to pwn/unlock your phone (although it is an easy process) or just want to make sure you're doing it right, wait for my video posting. I will be making the video once Pwnage Tool is out so you don't have to wait that long.</p>

<description><![CDATA[
 
Mistakenly, most parents assume an alert will automatically be issued should their child go miss]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"><em></em></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;">Mistakenly, most parents assume an alert will automatically be issued should their child go missing. In fact, less than 500 AMBER Alerts have been issued nationwide in the history of the alert system. Some states, Alaska and Vermont only recently activated their first ever alerts.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;">The <a href="http://www.callcac.com/">Child Alert Center</a>  was started in order to fill the void for those missing children who possibly won't qualify for an AMBER Alert but need critical information distributed immediately. The service supplements the search efforts for those who do. Parents proactively register their child's data in an affordable web-based registry that increases the chances of bringing a missing child home.</p>
<p>By securely storing photographs and identifying information about your child, in the case of an emergency, our child safety specialists in a timely manner contact resources nationwide to distribute the information and photos, in the form of a poster to aid in search efforts. In minutes, Child Alert Center can provide critical information to local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies so they in turn can search more effectively for a missing child.</p>
<p>The goal is not to compete with the AMBER Alert system but to compliment it by providing information to volunteer groups, national child-protective organizations, and local and national news media so searchers can find a missing child as soon as possible whether or not an alert is activated.</p>
<p>View this video from  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dIAkspzp7w">Sgt. Jimmy Giammarinaro </a>, a 16-year veteran of Law Enforcement, to learn more about the need for such a service.</p>
<p>All 50 states now have statewide AMBER Alert plans, creating a network of <em>plans</em> nationwide to aid in the recovery of abducted children.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;">
<table class="data_table" border="0" cellspacing="0" width="200">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>Total Plans Nationwide</td>
<td>120</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>    Statewide</td>
<td>53</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>    Regional</td>
<td>29</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>    Local</td>
<td>38</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0;">So what does that mean? Simply, there is no centralized AMBER Alert registry for your child so that an alert can be activated. You can however proactively register with the Child Alert Center which could shorten the time needed to collect your child's vital information. Authorities still have to collect the child's information and determine if their disappearance meets the criteria. Every successful AMBER plan contains clearly defined recommended activation criteria.</p>
<p><strong>Summary of Department of Justice Recommended Criteria</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>There is reasonable belief by law enforcement that an abduction has occurred.</li>
<li>The law enforcement agency believes that the child is in imminent danger of serious bodily injury or death.</li>
<li>There is enough descriptive information about the victim and the abduction for law enforcement to issue an AMBER Alert to assist in the recovery of the child.</li>
<li>The abduction is of a child aged 17 years or younger.</li>
<li>The child’s name and other critical data elements, including the Child Abduction flag, have been entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) system.</li>
</ul>
<p>AMBER Alerts are issued for abducted children when the situation meets the AMBER Alert criteria. When a child is missing, law enforcement can act swiftly to help recover the child, by developing search and rescue teams or by bringing dogs to the scene to track the scent. AMBER Alert is only one tool that law enforcement can use to find abducted children. AMBER Alerts should be reserved for those cases that meet the AMBER criteria.</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align:left;"><em><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Overuse of AMBER Alert could result in the public becoming desensitized to Alerts when they are issued</strong></span>.</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Most state's guidelines adhere closely to Department of Justice  (DOJ) recommended guidelines.</p>
<p><strong>Note:</strong> Ninety percent of the <strong>311 AMBER Alert</strong> recoveries have occurred since AMBER Alert became a nationally coordinated effort in 2002.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have been really disappointed with the whole sales process for the iPhone 3G. While Apple's design and advance technologies are impressive, it is fairly disappointing that they still don't understand it is about the costumer. We're in the era of the prosumers, crowdsourcing. The whole iMonopoly or is a practice that (help me out here those who understand economy) might not work in the future. People want freedom, they are paying for a product, they want to use it the way they want to. Why impose a limit of 1 device per user at all costs? They had plenty of time to get the amount of iPhones out there in the market, but they prefer to control the market (even knowing that their costumers will pay for it anyway).</p>
<p>When you call AT&#38;T stores, the automated message says you should "get iReady before going to the stores due to high demand"... well, maybe Apple and AT&#38;T should have gotten their iAct together before starting sales, iTested the servers, and given better iCostumer treatment. Instead of trying to turn everyone into iSuckers by asking them wait for ours to them find out they don't have enough devices or that they can't iActivate the phone. And what a tasteless pun: "iReady"... ha    ha... </p>
<p>Why not offer the same activation options as AT&#38;T? My wife and I have a discount on our plan which can only be maintained if we buy the iPhone at the AT&#38;T store. To get it activated at the Apple Store we'd have to deactivate the discount to then, call AT&#38;T to reactivate the discount on our plan.</p>
<p>Anyways, Apple needs to stop having this attitude of iCanDoWhatever because they will still buy my products... it is all about the customers and I have encountered quite a few people that are upset with Apples policies and services lately... the whole MacBook Intel systems haven't really been the "greatest" thin on Earth... anyway...</p>
<p>"i" am starting not to like Apple as much... already iHated iPhoto, for instance... now it's worse...</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">I so wanted to write a blog on this one but before I start, I want to say that I love the field of work I am into and that doesn’t imply I am happy with my job. This article talks about my understanding of marketing and why I want to stick to it all my life. </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">ROI implying "Return of Investment" &#38; CPC implying "Cost Per Contact" are two most important defining factors in any marketing plan. A brand's marketing campaign might do a lot of jazz, people might appreciate its visibility and it may win a lot of awards but in the end if the product is not selling than shove the marketing campaign up brand manager's ass. Negligible sales imply completely fucked ROI for the campaign. A little more sale with a lot of marketing investment implies indigestible CPC. Making the consumer feel good is important but if he/she doesn’t try your brand, then it's like having a girlfriend who just looks gorgeous but is absolutely worthless in bed. </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">Working for a FMCG brand it’s brought to the epicenter that any marketing campaign should be mostly focused around the POP (Point of Purchase) or at a point that will give brand experience. This will at least induce product trials in comparison to having different forms of advertising that will initially grab a lot of attention but there is no brand recall once the consumer reaches home or POP. </span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">I might be wrong when I say that you should have your entire marketing only on ground because the thought of identifying a perfect target location takes birth from the objective. If you just want people to know about your brand then do it anywhere, people will surely notice it. But I'm sure that for a brand to break even in the shortest time possible your primary objective cannot be awareness it has to be sales, if not supply shortage.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">Let's take Vodafone for example; the biggest visibility idea - "Paint The City Red" or "Make The Pug The Mascot Of The City"! But then what? When I think of buying a new mobile phone connection, Vodafone will just be an option because I have seen it everywhere. It will not be a priority. The curiosity levels for the brand can be achieved by both though "Above The Line" - ATL &#38; "Below The Line" - BTL marketing. But ATL marketing cannot assure ROI &#38; CPC. It can only be done through "Below The Line".</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">If that's going a bouncer, let me put it this way ATL touches millions in one go but BTL touches in a much more personalized. BTL it assures longevity of brand recall in the minds of the consumer. When going to buy the product a BTL brings the brand in front of the consumer if he/she has forgotten the award winning advertisement.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">At the POP, BTL activation enhances the curiosity and takes it to a good level of inducing sales. As the marketing Gurus say that maximum product buying decisions happen at the POP.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;">Ok let's take another example….this one’s a liitle different and talks about how POP enable big brands to interact personally with people. This one’s my favorite brand “Apple”. (Following text is from an article </span><em><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;">Posted by Richard Ziade on June 13, 2007, 10:32PM)</span></em></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="font-size:small;"><em><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;">People are scratching their heads wondering why the Apple retail stores are so successful. Gateway tried it years ago and their stores are all gone now. Dell is trying to sell through retail as well...through Walmart. Somehow, I don't think finding Dell laptops across the aisle from 60 lb. bags of fertilizer will amount to the same shopping experience. Above all else, Apple stores are designed to allow you to touch, play with and interact with every one of their products. You're implicitly invited to approach an iPod or Macbook and just play with it. This evinces a confidence in the ease of use of their products, and more importantly, a confidence in you. </span></em><em></em></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">So, Ladies &#38; Gentleman! What I am trying to put across is that human life is all about experiences that touch all your senses. A BTL focused marketing campaign is always focused around touching the senses and giving a personalized experience. When I see Colgate getting up, close &#38; personal to me at a place where I have gone to buy toothpaste, there is no doubt that Colgate will not take much time to climb up the ladder of my priority of the toothpaste.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;">In the end advertising will make the brand look good but activations bring out the real beauty. It removes replaces trial fears with experience.</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">The time has come when every brand is trying to bring in the maximum products possible to cater to every personality possible. This has made brand approach towards the consumer more specific and BTL solves that purpose in contrast to advertising which is for everybody and anybody</span></span></p>
<p style="line-height:15.9pt;"><span style="color:#000000;font-family:&#34;"><span style="font-size:small;">BTL is the future of marketing. I want to be a part of the future.</span></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Due to the amount of people buying iPhones and the intense demand of the iTunes Activation server, the server is currently unavailable. Many customers buying iPhones had to go home without a fully functional phone as they would have to activate them at home themselves.</p>
<p>Customers also trying to download the new version of iTunes (7.7) to their new iPhones were treated with a "Page Not Found".</p>
<p>For now people will have to wait to activate their phones.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, so today is the 3G iphone release day and the release of the iPod software update.</p>
<p>I hop on to itunes, update iTunes, go onto the itunes music store anjd guess what? I can't get the ipod update.</p>
<p>Now <a href="http://djsteen.com/wp">Derek</a> has suggested that the update is unavailable due to overload, I can understand this. But still, It's so bloddy annoying...</p>
<p>I'll prolly make this into a live post.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>14:55</strong></span>: Still not working. I searched wordpress to see if anyone else was rageful about this. Everyone's talking about how awesome the apps are (so I guess they got the update or the new iphones). I can't be the only one blogging this, can I?</p>
<p>Anyway I found something slightly creepy. I searched 'shedtroll' and got a post from <a href="http://tweetsonthebus.wordpress.com">Tweets on the bus</a>, a blog that blogs all tweets from people on buses. One of the tweets was posted a tweet I sent in may. Obcessive much?</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>15:38</strong></span>: Recieved a tweet from Christopher Masto talking about the whole iphone/ipod thing.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>"masto @shedtroll no, Apple's ability to sell/activate iPhones is literally down. In-store activation is a fucking disaster!"</em></p></blockquote>
<p>So everything is down, sooner or later small, collectivally run communities will form within the queues of mac fans. People will start growing crops in peace and harmony and...I'm in dream land aren't I?</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>16:00</strong></span>: From what I'm hearing on the great vines of twitter. Across the world there is chaos in relation to activating and purchasing iphones. People are having trouble activating their iPhones. People are calling it an activation hell.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>16:20</strong></span>: I found this on viddler. Embedding's disabled but it's still prittey schweet. <a href="http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadget/videos/33/">http://www.viddler.com/explore/engadget/videos/33/</a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>16:36</strong></span>: It's gonna be a while....I may aswell wait.</p>
