What is KeyLogger

A keylogger is a hardware device or a software program that records the real time activity of a computer user including the keyboard keys they press.Keyloggers are used in IT organizations to troubleshoot technical problems with computers and business networks. Keyloggers can also be used
by a family (or business) to monitor the network usage of people without their direct knowledge. Finally, malicious individuals may use keyloggers on public computers to steal passwords or credit card information.

Keylogger software is freely available on the Internet. These keyloggers allow not only keyboard keystrokes to be captured but also are often capable of collecting screen captures from the computer. Normal keylogging programs store their data on the local hard drive, but some are programmed to automatically transmit data over the network to a remote computer or Web server.

Detecting the presence of a keylogger on a computer can be difficult. So-called anti-keylogging programs have been developed to thwart keylogging systems, and these are often effective when used properly.

Band History Ill Divo

The idea behind Il Divo's creation came to Cowell after hearing Andrea Bocelli singing Con te partirò while watching The Sopranos. Aware of this new appreciation for lyrical voices and classical music, he decided to form a multinational quartet (the members hail from Spain, Switzerland, France, and the United States, the name being in Italian) that tried to recreate the style of The Three Tenors.

Simon Cowell conducted a worldwide search for young singers who were willing to embark on the Il Divo project, which lasted two years, from 2001 until December 2003, when the fourth member of Il Divo, American tenor David Miller, was signed. The well-established formation of Il Divo comprises a renowned Spanish baritone, Carlos Marín; two classically trained tenors, Swiss Urs Bühler and American David Miller; and a French pop singer, Sébastien Izambard.

Il Divo sings in English, Italian, Spanish, French, and Latin. Il Divo was named the Most Multinational UK No.1 Album Group in the 2006 edition of the Guinness Book of World Records.
On 25 April 2007, Il Divo performed on American Idol in one of the "Idol Gives Back" episodes, which raised money for children in the U.S. and Africa. For every vote cast during that show, Idol sponsors Coca-Cola, AT&T, and others donated money to Charity Projects Entertainment Fund (CPEF) and other groups such as Save the Children and America's Second Harvest.

On 12 December 2008, Il Divo performed their new song at the Swedish Idol 2008 finale in the Globen Arena in Stockholm.

As Barbra Streisand's Guests
Having just completed a six-month tour of America, Australia, and Europe, Il Divo then participated in all 20 concerts by Barbra Streisand in her North American tour as her special guests. "Streisand: The Tour" with Il Divo was ranked second for all tours for 2006, generating $92.5 million in gross sales.

2006 World Cup

On 9 June 2006, Il Divo performed the 2006 FIFA World Cup official song, "The Time of Our Lives," with R&B singer Toni Braxton live, at half-time, during the opening match between Germany and Costa Rica, and again a month later at the 9 July closing ceremony. The song is available exclusively on the Voices from the FIFA World Cup compilation album, and on the European reissue of Braxton's album Libra, but not on any Il Divo album.

Changing Mindsets

by Donna Willams
Reprinted by written permission of the author
Visit Donna Williams' Website
Special Thanks to Serge Conein!

Children are people too, no matter what labels they have. They have chemistry, which can be imbalanced and hence can have mood disorders. They can have neurotransmittal imbalances making them more or less compulsive, impulsive, fixated, depressed, manic, fluctuating, miles away or full on and in your face. They are just people. Like people can develop mindsets that work for them or are self-defeating. We don't always need verbal language to get a sense of someone's possible mindsets. There is still the language of behaviour. Environments can unintentionally and unwittingly respond to their child's experiences/mindset in ways that just justify or compound the current self defeating mindset or chemistry issues, or that turn them around.

If one have mood disorder, such as depression/bipolar with or without OCD, underlying one's social, emotional, communication, behaviour stuff, combinations of diet/supplementation/natural medicine/medication can often address that stuff.

If what one's stuff is part of a personality mindset, these interventions are limited in their ability to do the trick because one would be simply driven to re-manifest the old mindset (with its old 'rewards'/ defenses/ excuses/ hiding palces, etc.) So addressing this would take a change of that entire mindset, perhaps with plenty of help from hypotherapy (as you know counseling won't do it if one is driven to just re-manifest that old familiar, even chemically addictive pattern of the mindset) and if that's not possible, orchestrating the environment's responses to turn around self

defeating patterns in an indirectly confrontational way can work in a similar, subtle, way. Sure, for some, dietary interventions/medication may help that process but unless the environment is altered dramatically to trigger that change of mindset and unless the person themselves wants to let go the old patterns, it can be a tough thing to change

So in case this is of your interest... here's a little blurb I wrote for someone else that may help some people.

MINDSETS
There are lots of mindsets people can get stuck in and "non-verbal" people are not imune to these very human dynamics that can affect any person. Many mindsets can help us, others can be self defeating

Sometimes we get stuck in a perfectionist mindset and we judge ourselves so harshly we end up unable to dare try anything we can't be perfect at straight away.

Sometimes we get stuck in an obsessional mindset, going over and over the things that scare us till we build up our terror till it is much larger than ourselves till we shut down, certain that all is doomed.

There is the pessimist mindset, certain that we are somehow cursed, that no matter how hard we try only bad things will come our way and unable to see or care much about our successes because we choose to focus instead on our failure

Sometimes we get stuck in a dependant mindset, desperate to break free, but also feeling their desperation to save us, certain this is why they love us, afraid we will lose the intensely close merging relationship we have built up with our greatest supporters and caregivers, desiring independence, yet deeply insecure too that if we didn't need them, they'd abandon us.

We can get in a co-dependent mindset, fixating on "loved" others until they are crippled by being our own life's quest, entire sense of self, life purpose. Now we make them unable to easily dare to change because to do so will rob us, their savior, of our very identity and social worth. We may even simultaneously reinforce their certainty of their own incapability without us or cause them to cringe under the spotlight of our magnified attention and desperation all revolving around a "love" that can be suffocating or invite a crippling and inescapable dependency, leaving them unable to feel lovable as a person rather than a cause, and without feeling lovable self love is not existent and the "object" of such love is not existent and the "objects" of such "love" cannot save themselves

We can get stuck in a self-hatred / self-abusive mindset, dis-empowering those who might bring us down by bringing ourselves down first, defensively stopping ourselves from reaching out by compulsively reinforcing how dangerous or toxic we would be if we reached out.

Sometimes we get stuck in a bureaucratic/dogmatic mindset, insistent rigidly that everything must follow the rules as if we in some kind of superiority can somehow assume we always know best.

There are good constructive mindsets too.

We can choose the mindset of the eternal optimist, choosing to believe that all things are possible even if it takes hard step by step work, we will conquer the mountains.

We can choose the mindset of the realist, choosing to turn away from our blown up magnified fears and negativity and instead look at the mere unemotional facts and then make a plan, if necessary, a new plan, step by step, believing we have achievable goals.

We can all choose the Taoist mindset, believing that black and white are not all good or all bad, that bad can can work best in the right situation, that too much good can sometimes harm, that walking the middle path, without knee jerk reactions, without fierce fire that burns itself out, is the best way to achieve our goals with calm satisfaction and acceptance instead of resentment or fear, a mindset in which the only moment we have to worry about is the one we are in each second, each minute, right now, not yesterday, not tomorrow, and all steps are possible if we don't down and don't look so far ahead we become terrified and then assume we will fail when in fact living in each moment, we could well succeed.

We could choose the independent mindset, freeing ourselves of over-concern of the feelings of others and thereby freeing them too, where we all become fully responsible for exercising our own potential step by step at our own pace, for our own sake, without guilt, shame, burden or accumulated debt.

We have a choice at any time to change our mindset for one which will help instead of hinder us

A self-defeating mindset can be changed for one which will better work toward achieving the goals of empowerment, self forgiveness, independence, self expression and purposefulness.

Based on the Malay trade dialect, Bahasa Indonesia is the national language of the Republic of Indonesia. It unites the over 242 million people (2005 estimate) of Indonesia, whose native tongue may be one of the over 300 distinct languages or regional dialects. Older people may speak some Dutch and English is the foreign language of choice for business, tourism and study.
While it may be technically possible for foreigners to live in Jakarta without learning/speaking Bahasa Indonesia, it is highly recommended that you obtain a working knowledge of the Indonesian national language. An inability to communicate in Bahasa Indonesia will cut you off from the mainstream of society, and dealing with those Indonesians who don't speak your foreign language will be very difficult. By not learning the language, you also deny yourself the rich cultural experience of fully communicating with those from another culture.
To get you started and introduce you to the Indonesian national language, are some basic phrases in Bahasa Indonesia.
Click on the link to the Indonesian phrase below to hear the phrases in Indonesian:
Greetings:
Good morning Selamat Pagi

Good mid-day Selamat siang

Good evening Selamat malam

Good-bye Selamat tinggal (if you're leaving)

Selamat jalan (to someone who is leaving you)

Thank you Terima kasih

You're welcome Kembali or sama-sama

How are you? Apa kabar?

Excuse me Permisi or maaf

Communicating:
Do you speak English? Bisa bicara Bahasa Inggris?

I don't speak Indonesian. Saya tidak bisa bicara bahasa Indonesia.

I don't understand. Saya tidak mengerti.

Requesting basic assistance:
Can you help me? Bisa bantu saya?

Where is the bathroom? Di mana kamar kecil?

Where is . . . Di mana . . .

How much is this? Berapa harganya ini?

I want this. Saya mau ini.

I want to eat. Saya mau makan.

Getting home:
My address is ... Alamat saya...

Please take me to ... Tolong, antar saya ke ...

Learning Bahasa Indonesia
The best time to start learning Bahasa Indonesia is before you even make your move to Indonesia, however it may be difficult to find language materials in your home country. Ask your sponsoring company to help you obtain tapes and books several months before you move, so that you can start becoming used to the sound of the language and start familiarizing yourself with its structure and vocabulary.
Formal Courses
Soon after your arrival in Indonesia, make it a priority to register for a Bahasa Indonesia course. There are several excellent schools and community organizations in Jakarta (and other cities) which have comprehensive, structured programs to help you begin learning Indonesian. Learning Indonesian properly from the beginning can not be stressed enough.
Another advantage of signing up for a course is that it's a great place to meet other newcomers and make friends. The people that you will be taking the course with will also be facing many of the settling in and adjustments challenges that you too face as a newcomer.
Several schools offer intensive programs, in Bali or Yogyakarta, where you can study for the full day and have some enjoyable cultural experiences as well.
Tutors
Others opt for private lessons in their home or office from private tutors. This option tends to be the most expensive, and there is little control over the quality of the curriculum and instruction. Even though the tutor may come highly recommended from other expats, that does not ensure the quality of their instruction. You may, however, find it useful to meet with a tutor for a period after you have completed several levels of a formal course. That way they can help you with any special problems or requirements you may have.
Self-Taught Bahasa Indonesia
Some expats opt to learn Bahasa Indonesia on their own. Excellent books to learn Bahasa Indonesia are available in bookstores in the major cities. Once you are in Indonesia, practice your fledgling Indonesian with your household staff, driver, vendors, people you meet in the stores, and social encounters. The diligent will quickly pick up enough Bahasa Indonesia to feel comfortable interacting with Indonesians on a daily basis.
Pen Pals and Indonesian Friends
True fluency in a language requires active use of the language. Many expats find it helpful to get a pen pal or have a "language buddy" relationship with an Indonesian where you help each other to learn a desired language by sharing your skills. This can be as simple as setting up a time to meet once or twice a week where you focus on learning language and developing a friendship over coffee or email each other any questions you have about the language.
Many Indonesians want to learn English, or French, or German ... so if you want to learn Bahasa Indonesia, offer to "trade" skills by investing time in each other's language studies. Obviously you can pay a private tutor to do the same thing, but this type of a relationship is based on mutual benefit and doesn't involve payment. One time you focus on helping the expat to learn Indonesian, and the next time you meet you focus on helping the Indonesian to learn the foreign language.
Two great places to chat with Indonesians wanting to learn English or to find an Indonesian pen pal is on the Living in Indonesia Expat Forum or the Kangguru Radio English Forum.

Einstein's theory of Relativity in the Quran?

Moslems (Muslims) believe that angels are low mass creatures, and that God created them originally from light. They move at any speed from zero up to the speed of light. It is the angels who carry out God's orders. Those angels take their orders from a Preserved Tablet somewhere in outer space near Earth, and not form God's Throne. They commute to and from this Preserved Tablet to get their orders from God. In the following verse, the Quran is describing how.....

angels travel when they commute to and from this Tablet. And the speed at which they commute to and from this Tablet turned out to be the known speed of light:

I'd like to see the text that claims angels travel the speed of light...if this thought isn't in text, it's a scientific after thought

[Quran 32.5] (Allah) Rules the cosmic affair from the heavens to the Earth. Then this affair travels to Him a distance in one day, at a measure of one thousand years of what you count.

there's the text that they base the theory that the speed of light is known with this annotation;

It is the angels who carryout this 'cosmic affair' (see Arabic wording at footnote [1]). Hence in 1 day, the angels will travel a distance of 1000 years of what they counted. Those people back then followed the lunar calendar and counted 12 months each year. These months are related to the moon and not related to the sun. Since this verse is referring to distance, then Allah is saying that angels travel in one day the same distance that the moon travels in 12000 lunar orbits. This speed turned out to the known speed of light.

how he comes up with a lunar orbit instead of a an orbit of the earth for the day, or orbit of the sun for the year I don't follow...the translation has nothing to do with the moon, it has to do with a day which is the earth, or a year which is the sun...no moon involved...he claims that the angesls; travel[s] to Him a distance in one day, at a measure of one thousand years of what you count.
from either a day or a year in measuremennt use the moon as a referance, and then to break this down to the speed of light is a stretch in my mind.

if he could show a correlation of the speed of light versus the distance the sun travels in a year I would give the correlation some weight, versus the moon, no weight.

on the other hand, I do see a correlation the theory of relativity in a differant sense

the angel travels a days worth of distance for himself, but it would translate to a thousand years earth time

this is a component of relativity when you approach the speed of light, If you are approaching the speed of light on a craft, time would pass differantly then it would have relative to how time passes on earth, however I don't know the exact correlation between a light day and a thousand years, I don't think the correlation of a day's time at the speed of light is close to a thousand years not approaching the speed of light.

Biography

Albert EinsteinAlbert Einstein was born at Ulm, in Württemberg, Germany, on March 14, 1879. Six weeks later the family moved to Munich, where he later on began his schooling at the Luitpold Gymnasium. Later, they moved to Italy and Albert continued his education at Aarau, Switzerland and in 1896 he entered the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich to be trained as a teacher in physics and mathematics. In 1901, the year he gained his diploma, he acquired Swiss citizenship and, as he was unable to find a teaching post, he accepted a position as technical assistant in the Swiss Patent Office. In 1905 he obtained his doctor's degree.

During his stay at the Patent Office, and in his spare time, he produced much of his remarkable work and in 1908 he was appointed Privatdozent in Berne. In 1909 he became Professor Extraordinary at Zurich, in 1911 Professor of Theoretical Physics at Prague,

returning to Zurich in the following year to fill a similar post. In 1914 he was appointed Director of the Kaiser Wilhelm Physical Institute and Professor in the University of Berlin. He became a German citizen in 1914 and remained in Berlin until 1933 when he renounced his citizenship for political reasons and emigrated to America to take the position of Professor of Theoretical Physics at Princeton*. He became a United States citizen in 1940 and retired from his post in 1945.

After World War II, Einstein was a leading figure in the World Government Movement, he was offered the Presidency of the State of Israel, which he declined, and he collaborated with Dr. Chaim Weizmann in establishing the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

Einstein always appeared to have a clear view of the problems of physics and the determination to solve them. He had a strategy of his own and was able to visualize the main stages on the way to his goal. He regarded his major achievements as mere stepping-stones for the next advance.

At the start of his scientific work, Einstein realized the inadequacies of Newtonian mechanics and his special theory of relativity stemmed from an attempt to reconcile the laws of mechanics with the laws of the electromagnetic field. He dealt with classical problems of statistical mechanics and problems in which they were merged with quantum theory: this led to an explanation of the Brownian movement of molecules. He investigated the thermal properties of light with a low radiation density and his observations laid the foundation of the photon theory of light.

In his early days in Berlin, Einstein postulated that the correct interpretation of the special theory of relativity must also furnish a theory of gravitation and in 1916 he published his paper on the general theory of relativity. During this time he also contributed to the problems of the theory of radiation and statistical mechanics.

In the 1920's, Einstein embarked on the construction of unified field theories, although he continued to work on the probabilistic interpretation of quantum theory, and he persevered with this work in America. He contributed to statistical mechanics by his development of the quantum theory of a monatomic gas and he has also accomplished valuable work in connection with atomic transition probabilities and relativistic cosmology.

After his retirement he continued to work towards the unification of the basic concepts of physics, taking the opposite approach, geometrisation, to the majority of physicists.

Einstein's researches are, of course, well chronicled and his more important works include Special Theory of Relativity (1905), Relativity (English translations, 1920 and 1950), General Theory of Relativity (1916), Investigations on Theory of Brownian Movement (1926), and The Evolution of Physics (1938). Among his non-scientific works, About Zionism (1930), Why War? (1933), My Philosophy (1934), and Out of My Later Years (1950) are perhaps the most important.

Albert Einstein received honorary doctorate degrees in science, medicine and philosophy from many European and American universities. During the 1920's he lectured in Europe, America and the Far East and he was awarded Fellowships or Memberships of all the leading scientific academies throughout the world. He gained numerous awards in recognition of his work, including the Copley Medal of the Royal Society of London in 1925, and the Franklin Medal of the Franklin Institute in 1935.

Einstein's gifts inevitably resulted in his dwelling much in intellectual solitude and, for relaxation, music played an important part in his life. He married Mileva Maric in 1903 and they had a daughter and two sons; their marriage was dissolved in 1919 and in the same year he married his cousin, Elsa Löwenthal, who died in 1936. He died on April 18, 1955 at Princeton, New Jersey.

How’s important English??

English today is very important in communication. Everyone should be able to speak and communicate in English. Indonesian, Malayan, Arabian etc when They are meeting in a forum, They will use English to communicate each other.

Purwakarta is the little town that lies between Jakarta and Bandung. And also as Industrial City in West Jawa, where the Investor come to invest their money here. No Doubt between us and the Investor, if we can follow up them and we can promote our city well. But, what should we do if we can’t communicate English??

Will They Understand Indonesian or Sundanese?

Sure, They do not Understand Indonesian or Sundanese!!!

Therefore we should use English in communication by foreign person who come here. Such as Investor, tourist, etc.

And you should know that so many advantages if you can understand English!!!!
