Naruto Shippuden Episode 91 : "Orochimaru's Hideout Discovered"

The episode was all about the Team of Kakashi with Kiba, Hinata and Shino found the trail of one of the ANBU and finding the hideout but seems to be too late since Guren has already taken the rest of the survivors. But those speciments likes to break free and tends to attack Guren and ended up frozen and dead, aside from the 5 who pledges their loyalty to Guren. So the Team went on to pursue Guren... On the other hand it appears that Naruto and Jiraiya have arrive on the hotspring and relax a little bit before they started the rhythem training of Naruto with one of the Toads named Mr. Gamariki that seems to be a Gay Toad... And it appears that Sasuke will face the remaining speciments with Guren as he and Orochimaru talked on the last scene of the episode. Well, I am looking forward on what will happen on the next episode as the Team of Kakashi faces Guren and the rest of the other speciments. I also look forward as what will Naruto learn on this new training... will he and Mr. Gamariki be able to create a new Jutsu well all that question will be answered next episode.

Here are some snapshots of the last episode Naruto Shippuden Episode 91 : "Orochimaru's Hideout Discovered"

Naruto Shippuden Episode 90 Updates....

2008-12-28T08:20:00.000-08:00

Continuation of Naruto: Shippuden

Naruto: Shippuden - Season 4

Sorry guys this is the late review... Since I just have been busy of the holiday season. The Naruto Shippuden Episode 90 entitled "A Shinobi's Determination" was all about the continuation of the last episode about the whereabouts of Orochimaru and Suske. We also have the new Character from the last episode (Naruto Shippuden Episode 89 Entitled "Price of Power") Guren and another boy named Yūkimaru. ... hmmm... I don't really know about this new characters since they were not on the manga series. Anyway since this two new characters have something to do with Orochimaru. Then there is a cute and funny scene on the ramen house. I kinda like when Naruto blushes when Sakura show how much she care for Naruto. Then the comical and un predictable move from Sai and Kakashi, and just to add the naugtiness of Konohamaru outside the Ramen House. Then the next thing I will be waiting is the new mission of Kakashi with Shino, Kiba and Hinata. And what really intrigues me is that if there is really a new training for Naruto with Jiraiya. I think I really be waiting for the next episodes of this Anime series.

Here are the details about the last episode: (Naruto Shippuden Episode 90 entitled "A Shinobi's Determination" )

An ANBU sends a message to Konoha moments before he dies, having discovered what may be Orochimaru's current hideout. Meanwhile, Orochimaru has Guren initiate a battle among a large number of experimental specimens with the survivors being used for a future operation. Naruto is warned not to use Rasen-Shuriken due to its extreme risk while they are eating at the ramen house with sakura and Sai. Back at Orochimarus hideout, Sasuke meets a boy called Yūkimaru. Kakashi is ordered to go on a reconnaissance mission with Shino, Kiba and Hinata. Naruto is reunited with Jiraiya, who offers to train with him again.

Computer Tips: How to protect your wireless network

2008-12-22T05:46:00.000-08:00

Having a Wireless networks are a great way to share files, printers, and your Internet connection to any computer in your home. With the use of wireless network adapter installed on your portable computer, you are no longer tied to your desk and have the mobility to use your computer anywhere. You can communicate with friends, read the news, and surf the Web anywhere you can receive a wireless network signal. See steps on How Setup Your Home Wireless Network.

But there are some risks. Since Wireless networks don't stop at the walls of your home. Yes, In fact, it often extend more than 300 feet from your wireless router considering some of new technologies nowadays. If you are living in an apartment, dorm, or condominium, you may have dozens of neighbors who can access your wireless network. If you live in a house, your neighbors and even people on the street or the house accross the street can may be able to connect to your network.

Here are the common implications why you should consider reading this article on "Computer Tips: How to protect your wireless network"

1. Slowdown your Internet performance. Imagine you are just checking a website and and the other one on the network is downloading movies and other stuffs. It divides your bandwidth or in simple terms your internet connection speed. A website that would load in instant will we loading for 30 secons or more. Thats not good, right? Not to consider when you are opening more than one webpages.

2. Others can Share and access computers and spread dangerous software. Since other can access your network it is also possible that they can also access your shared files and could infect your computer also with virus and spywares. Other can also Monitor the Web sites you visit, read your e-mail and instant messages as they travel across the network, and copy your usernames and passwords. Send spam or perform illegal activities with your Internet connection.

How to protect your wireless network

Protecting your Network is like protecting your self from theft and other outside threats. You can protect your wireless network by using the same method banks use to protect your password when you log on to their Web sites: encryption. Yes, Encryption scrambles data on your wireless network so that only computers that have the encryption key can read your communications.

Here are some wireless encryption:

64-bit WEP (Wired Equivalent Protection). This is the original wireless encryption standard, it is now outdated. The main problem with it is that it can be easily "cracked." Cracking a wireless network means defeating the encryption so that you can establish a connection without being invited.

128-bit WEP. An updated, more secure version of the original WEP. However, skilled attackers can still crack 128-bit WEP in a few hours or less, giving them access to your network.

WPA-PSK (also known as WPA-Personal). A more secure alternative to WEP, but because it is newer, it is not as widely supported. Microsoft Windows XP with Service Pack 2 supports WPA, so this type of encryption is the best choice if you plan to connect only Windows XP computers to your wireless network. However, if you have wireless devices that don't support WPA, such as media extenders or wireless cameras, you'll have to use WEP on your network instead.

You might also see the security method called "WPA-Enterprise." As the name suggests, this method of network encryption is designed for business use. Setup for WPA-Enterprise is more complex than for other types of encryption, and it requires special network infrastructure.

WPA2. The newest type of wireless encryption, WPA2 provides the highest level of encryption available. WPA2 encryption should be your first choice if your wireless router and all of your wireless computers and devices support it.

Even though one type of encryption may be better than another, any type will dramatically improve your network's security by making you a more difficult target.

Can wireless encryption be "cracked"?

The short answer is, "Yes". Any encryption can be cracked. An individual with knowledge of computers and networking, and who is willing to spend a few hours researching free "hacking" tools, can crack encryption in a few hours (or less). However, most users who want to connect without authorization lack the expertise to crack wireless encryption, even relatively weak 64-bit WEP. In a crowded neighborhood with numerous unprotected networks, anyone looking for a free connection will likely choose the unprotected network rather than spend the time to crack your wireless encryption. Therefore, even WEP encryption offers better protection than not having encryption enabled at all.

Wireless security tips

Here are some tips to keep your data safe when using wireless networks:

1. If you use WEP encryption, change your encryption key once a month. If someone manages to learn your key, they will be locked out again when you change it.

2. Don't connect to unprotected wireless networks—it's possible for someone to monitor your Internet usage and even record your passwords.

3. If you do connect to an unprotected wireless network, don't visit a Web site that requires a password unless the Web site is encrypted. To find out if it's encrypted, look for a lock symbol in the lower-right corner of your browser.

4. SSL secured Web site icon

5. If you use WPA-PSK to encrypt your network, set a long passphrase of at least 20 random characters. Better yet, use the full 63 characters by typing a sentence you can remember—just don't make it something that's easily guessed, like a line from a movie.

- Yes, first comes first. You have to choose your wireless equipment. But when you are shopping for the equipments you need you will notice that there are three different wireless networking technologies:

802.11a - 54 Mbps maximum data rate and has a range of ~35m
802.11b - 11 Mbps maximum data rate and has a range of ~38m
802.11g - 54 Mbps maximum data rate and has a range of ~38m

I do recommend 802.11g, because it offers excellent performance and is compatible with almost everything. After Choosing the wireless networking technology you will be using, now is the time to shop for the equipment. You may include the following on your shopping list:

Wireless Router - It converts the signals coming across your Internet connection into a wireless broadcast. Be sure to get a wireless router and not a wireless access point.

Wireless network adapter - It is the one that connects your computer to your wireless router. Most branded computer nowadays specially the notebooks already has a built in so just check your users manual or specs of your computer. If you do not have one you can add a PCI Wireless adapter or a USB wireless adapter on your computer. I would recommend you to get the same brand as your wireless router to avoid conflict.

2.Connect your wireless router
- You may use the diagram below as your as your guide. Printing the instructions below would be much recommended.

a. Connect your router to your modem

If you currently have your computer connected directly to your modem: Unplug the network cable from the back of your computer, and plug it into the port labeled Internet, WAN, or WLAN on the back of your router.
If you do not currently have a computer connected to the Internet: Plug one end of a network cable (included with your router) into your modem, and plug the other end of the network cable into the Internet, WAN, or WLAN port on your wireless router.
If you currently have your computer connected to a router: Unplug the network cable connected to the Internet, WAN, or WLAN port from your current router, and plug this end of the cable into the Internet, WAN, or WLAN port on your wireless router. Then, unplug any other network cables, and plug them into the available ports on your wireless router. You no longer need your original router, because your new wireless router replaces it.

b. Plug in and turn on your cable or DSL modem. Wait a few minutes to give it time to connect to the Internet, and then plug in and turn on your wireless router. After a minute, the Internet, WAN, or WLAN light on your wireless router should light up, indicating that it has successfully connected to your modem.

Note: Check the documentation that came with your equipment for additional assistance.

3.Configure your wireless router

Using the network cable that came with your wireless router, you should temporarily connect your computer to one of the open network ports on your wireless router (any port that isn't labeled Internet, WAN, or WLAN). If you need to, turn your computer on. It should automatically connect to your router.
Open Internet Explorer and type in the address to configure your router.
You might be prompted for a password. The address and password you use will vary depending on what type of router you have, so refer to the instructions included with your router.

The table below shows the default addresses, usernames, and passwords for some common router manufacturers

Router	Address	Username	Password
3Com	http://192.168.1.1	admin	admin
D-Link	http://192.168.0.1	admin
Linksys	http://192.168.1.1	admin	admin
Microsoft Broadband	http://192.168.2.1	admin	admin
Netgear	http://192.168.0.1	admin	password

Internet Explorer will show your router's configuration page. Most of the default settings should be fine, but you should configure three things:

Your wireless network name, known as the SSID. This name identifies your network. You should choose something unique that none of your neighbors will be using.
Wireless encryption (WEP) or Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA), which help protect your wireless network. For most routers, you will provide a passphrase that your router uses to generate several keys. Make sure your passphrase is unique and long (you don't need to memorize it).
Your administrative password, which controls your wireless network. Just like any other password, it should not be a word that you can find in the dictionary, and it should be a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. Be sure you can remember this password, because you'll need it if you ever have to change your router's settings.

The exact steps you follow to configure these settings will vary depending on the type of router you have. After each configuration setting, be sure to click Save Settings, Apply, or OK to save your changes.

Now, you should disconnect the network cable from your computer.

4.Connect your computers

You should have installed the wireless driver of software of your Wireless Network card or adapter. Usually, it is auto detect and will be prompted to insert the CD that came with your adapter. Please follow the on-screen instructions that will guide you through the configuration process. You should see the wireless Icon on your task bar.

Congratulation you are now ready to to connect your computer to your wireless network.

Here are the steps on how to to connect your computer to your wireless network:

1. Right-click the wireless network icon in the lower-right corner of your screen, and then click View Available Wireless Networks. If you run into any problems, consult the documentation that came with your network adapter. Don't be afraid to call their tech support.

2. The Wireless Network Connection window should appear and you should see your wireless network listed with the network name you chose. If you don't see your network, click Refresh network list in the upper-left corner. Click your network, and then click Connect in the lower-right corner. Choose wireless connection

3. You will be prompt to enter a key. Type the encryption key that you wrote down earlier in both the Network key and Confirm network key boxes, and then click Connect.

4. It will show its progress as it connects to your network. After you're connected, you can now close the Wireless Network Connection window. You're done.

Note: If the Wireless Network Connection window continues to show Acquiring Network Address, you may have mistyped the encryption key.

I do hope this Computer Tips on How Setup Your Home Wireless Network have provided you essential and necessary information on How Setup Your Home Wireless Network.

My first Sony experience is with my Sony Walkman

2008-11-16T03:21:00.000-08:00

My first Sony experience is with my Sony Walkman. It was bought by my Dad from Saudi Arabia way back when I was in high school. It was a gift for having good grades. One of its best feature is its built in speaker and mic for easy recording and playback. It also has an FM and AM tuner so I can also hear music from the radio. What I like most in this Sony Walkman is its reverse playback feature in which you do not have to remove the cassette tape to hear the tracks from side A to side B. Playing songs of my favorite artists made it easy. And made it easy for me to practice songs that we will be playing in our band. It is powered by 4 AA battery unlike other player which only has 2 AA battery, so it has longer playing time. You can also use a AC to DC adapter to power. Mine comes with a 4 AA rechargeable batteries and Mom bought me an AC to DC adapter. So when I am at home, I do not have to use the batteries and save it when I am outdoors and when I record our band practice session.

I really love Music with my Sony Walkman and use it until now as my radio player since cassette tapes are already obsolete. And have attached to a computer speaker. Now I can hear the latest music and news in the radio. In fact it has witnessed some of my greatest memories with my friends way way back.

Picture was taken during the celebration of my friends birthday...

It really gave significance in my life just like the World’s First Noise Canceling Portable Music Player: NWZ-S730 Series that gave me a chance to play more MP3's at home and which will really help me find peace in my travels.

Plastic Bottles Warning

2008-10-30T10:46:00.000-07:00

Did you ever drink from a plastic bottle and see a triangle symbol on the bottom with a number inside? Do you know what the number stands for? Did you guess that it's just for recycling?
Then you are WRONG !!!!!

THE NUMBER TELLS YOU THE CHEMICAL MAKE UP OF THE PLASTIC.1) Polyethylene terephalate (PET)

2) High density polyethylene (HDPE)
3) Unplasticised polyvinyl chloride (UPVC) or Plasticised polyvinyl chloride (PPVC)
4) Low density polyethylene LDPE
5) Polypropylene (PP)
6) Polystyrene (PS) or Expandable polystyrene (EPS)
7) Other, including nylon and acrylic

What you aren't told is that many of the plastics used are toxic and the chemicals used to create a plastic can leach out of the plastic and into the food / drink.
Think about it, how many times have you or a friend said 'I don't like this, it taste like the plastic bottle ..... '
THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ARE TASTING THE PLASTIC
The WORST ONES are Nos: 3, 6, and 7 !!!
DO NOT USE THESE NUMBERS if stated at the bottom of the bottle) !!!

Reusing plastic bottles by refilling them is NOT a good idea. WATCH THIS VIDEO:
http://video.wnbc.com/player/?id=238518
Microwaving plastic containers affects the chemical make up of the plastic, allowing the chemical substances to destabilize and leach out more quickly into the food you are reheating. You can check out this article that ran in the Wall Street Journal:
http://www.mindfully.org/Plastic/Microwave-Health-Problems.htm

EVEN one of my favorite 'RUMOR DEBUNKING' websites, URBANLEGENDS.ABOUT.COM

Lists the information as: overblown with a grain of TRUTH
READ the FULL 3 pages of the article!

Just Receive this Plastic Bottles Warning from a e friend on my email . I just feel like sharing it to you and I do hope this will serve as a WARNING!!!

Halloween!!!

2008-10-29T04:20:00.000-07:00

Just a little backround about Halloween, it is an international Holiday which usually celebrated on Oct. 31. Its origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that is now Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France, celebrated their new year on November, it is the end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark, cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human death. They believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred. On the night of October 31, they celebrated Samhain, when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to earth.Some activities include trick-or-treating, ghost tours, bonfires, costume parties, visiting haunted attractions, carving jack-o'-lanterns, reading scary stories and watching horror movies.

Let me be the first one to greet you Happy Halloween!!! Yes, Halloween is almost here. As I walk down the streets I have seen some some decoration... heheheh... joke... Usually we do not really celebrate Halloween here in the Philippines specially in the neighborhood where I live in, but if you visit some exclusive villages and subdivisions you will see some decorations. You may also find some decorations on malls and offices like ours.

For us Filipinos, we usually take this opportunity to pay a visit on the grave of our love ones and offer a short prayer while lighting a candle and bring some flowers. For some youngones, take this opportunity to party. Some, take this opportunity also to bond with our family and friends. Well some stay home to avoid the jammed traffic on the streets and crowded cemetery.

How about you, how do you celebrate your Halloween?

If you do not have the Driver CD and/or you are using a clone computer (Non Branded Computer), you can check the brand and model or chipset of your motherboard and search for the driver in Google (recommended) or other browser and download it.
If you purchase your sound card separately it should come with the Driver CD if not go to the website of your sound card and look for the driver of the sound card model you have.

Step 2: Go to Device Manager:

Shikamaru leaves with Asuma, Izumo and Kotetsu, whereas Ino and Choji leave with Raido and Aoba. After putting in considerable effort, Naruto clears the second stage of his training, but collapses from hunger and exhaustion almost immediately afterward. As Asuma's team reach the fire temple and found out that the body of Chiriku was no where to be found, he mourns Chiriku's death, and realizes that Hidan and Kakuzu are trying to claim the bounty on his head. Meanwhile, Hidan and Kakuzu take Chiriku in for their payment. Meanwhile, Kakashi shows Naruto what the true goal of his training will be. He shows Naruto that he can also can perform the Rasengan but cannot combine his own lightning-based chakra with it. He also told Naruto that even the Fourth Hokage, who created the move, could not combine his wind-based chakra with the technique, but that Naruto might be able to. Asuma sends message to other teams to proceed to the nearest exchange point where the Akatsuki could bring the corpse of Chiriku to claim the bounty.Despite his concern about Akatsuki’s strength. As Naruto continue with the last phase of his training, the stress of the training begins to bring out the Nine-Tailed Fox chakra luckily Yamato was there to supress it. Asuma’s team reaches the bounty station and ambushes Hidan. Izumo and Kotetsu attack Hidan, but are unable to kill him despite hitting vital organs. Asuma tells his teammates that if they retreat they will be killed and Konoha will be endangered. Shikamaru realizes that Asuma is considering sacrificing himself to help defeat the enemy, based on what he knows of Asuma's shogi strategy. Asuma begins fighting Hidan while Shikamaru occupies him by forcing him to dodge Shadow Sewing. Hidan cuts Asuma on the cheek, and steps into a circle of blood and transforms just as Asuma uses a jutsu to fire a cloud of burning ash at him.

We used to play it the old fashion way, using the "bulilio" to draw the numbers and sea shells use to mark the numbers in the card. The price was a small pot money gathered to each player depending on the number of cards they have, since the more cards you have the more chances of winning. It was a fun specially when somebody is waiting and shout BINGO!

Now I have a family, been busy working for our future. But I make sure I give time to my self and my family. Spending some time with them and having fun as our bonding moments. One great way to spend time with them was to watch DVD, and I found one great educational DVD and a game in one, the Disney Bingo.

Continuation of Naruto: Shippuden

Naruto: Shippuden - Season III

Season 3 starts at the continuation of the battle between Team Kakashi and Suske. Then Orochimaru and Kabuto appear convince Sasuke to withdraw with them. So they return to Konoha with a failed mission to bring back Sasuke. But Sakura reassures him that they will bring Sasuke back together next time. They came to Tsunade to report about the mission and Sai talks to Danzo and requested to join the team. Naruto keeps on having a nightmare about the release of the Nine-Tail's power. Kakashi is released from the hospital and begins Naruto's training program. Naruto learns that he has Wind-style chakra. Naruto also learns that he can use his Multi Shadow Clone jutsu to speed up his training, since whatever the clones learn, the original user learns upon the clone's dispersal. Naruto and his mass of clones each take a leaf and attempt to slice it in half with wind chakra as the first step to creating his new jutsu. Naruto ask Asuma who has the same wind chakra for some It is revealed that Asuma is the Third Hokage's son and that he is in a relationship with Kurenai (A Female Jounin that specializes with Genjutsu "An illusion technique"). Naruto, Sakura, Sai and Yamato head out for a new mission near the Fire Temple. When the other party fails to show up on the meeting place, the team get separated and Naruto stumbles upon one of the four hidden tombs they came to protect. There he meet Sora, one monks-in-training from the Fire Temple, they fight due to misunderstanding . As they arrive to the Temple, Naruto recognizes the temple from his nightmares. Naruto realizes Sora is despised by the other monks as he was himself and wishes to befriend him. They receive a news that another tomb has been robbed. Team Kakashi, Chiriku (one of the guardian monks) and Sora notice the coffins moving on their own, but fail to intercept them. The coffins emerge on a cliff, where the leader of the enemy ninja orders his subordinates to deal with their foes. The ninjas turn the area into a maze of rocky canyons and pits, full of deadly traps. The team members are separated from each other, and begin facing off against the enemy. Yamato speculates that the ninja may have orchestrated the theft in order to target someone on his team. Team Kakashi begin facing off against the enemy shinobi. Yamato eludes his opponent, Fudo, by faking his death. Sora, unwilling to look for Naruto, goes off on his own. Naruto fights Fūka, whose kiss is fatal and shows her ability to use earth, fire, water and lightning jutsus. Sai manages to escape from his attacker, Fuen, and later saves Sakura from an enormous spider, becoming injured in the process. Sora then hits upon the enemy leader, Furido, and it is revealed that he was the group's target. Furido taunts Sora until Sora unleashes his true powers, before informing Sora that he is planning to use the four corpses to save the Land of Fire. Naruto continues his fight with Fūka and learns that she can use all five elemental jutsus. Fūka manages to kiss Naruto and begins draining his chakra. Realizing that Naruto is in trouble from extra-sensory perception, Sora rushes to rescue him. Sakura, Sai and Yamato arrive to help but are trapped by Fudo and Fuen. Fūka drains Naruto's chakra until she begins drawing on the Kyuubi's, which appears to be too "evil" for her. The enemy team retreats when Chiriku brings reinforcements. So Team Kakashi comeback to Konoha and since Sai was badly injured he rests in the infirmary and Sora replaces him for the moment. As Naruto shows Sora around konoha they meet Kiba, Choji, and Rock Lee ( Naruto's Friends and fellow Ninja), but Sora insults them and ended up in a brawl. Luckily Shikamaru (One of the Chunin) and uses his Shadow Binding Technique to stop them with Asuma. Later Asuma tells Sora he knew Sora's father, who is revealed as one of the Guardians involved in the coup attempt. Asuma Shows them his chakra blade attack and supervises Naruto and Sora's wind chakra training, and notices that Sora, like Naruto, has very powerful chakra. Tsunade and Yamato learn from Chiriku that Sora was inadvertently responsible for an incident in which the Temple of Fire was destroyed. Later, Asuma gives Sora a claw made from the same materials as his chakra blades. It is revealed that Asuma killed Sora's father Kazuma, who had planned to kill the Hokage. Furido then approaches Sora, telling him that Asuma is responsible for his father's death and passing him two "king" pieces from a Shogi set for Asuma. Danzou is brought in for questioning after being caught meeting with a young Rain ninja. Sora confronts Asuma, and Asuma admits to having killed Kazuma. He attacks Asuma, his arm once again assuming a demonic form. Afterward, Naruto gets injured while shielding Sora from the attacks of an unknown individual. Later on, Naruto catches Sora going after Tsunade. Sora retreats as Shizune and a few other ninja arrive, but Naruto pursues him. At that moment, a mysterious lightning storm strikes, cutting off power to the entire village. With Konoha in complete darkness, the village struggles to defend against the four attackers. The entire village is in a state of emergency. Asuma, commanded by Tsunade to follow Sora and Naruto, finally catches up to them. Asuma realizes that the four invaders plan to annihilate the entire village using the lightning powers of the corpses that they stole. The revelation shocks Sora. As Asuma leaves to help hold off the attackers, he instructs Naruto to continue pursuing Sora. Konoha's ninja fight off the revived zombie members of the Kohaku clan. The four Guardian Ninjas, Seito, Tou'u, Nauma and Kitane, are also revived. Asuma realizes that they are planning to use Limelight, a jutsu in which the four create a lightning blast powerful enough to destroy Konoha. Asuma sends Sakura and Yamato after the other three while he remains behind to battle Kitane, but Fuen tackles Sakura and Fudo fights Yamato. Meanwhile, Naruto catches up to Sora, but Sora runs off in search of Furido. Naruto tries to pursue him, but is assailed by Fuka. Soon after, Sora reaches Furido, who admits that he had planned to destroy Konoha.

Video Card Upgrades

2008-07-20T22:54:00.000-07:00

A video card, also referred to as a graphics accelerator card, display adapter, graphics card, is a piece of hardware installed in a computer that is responsible for rendering or generating an output or image on the computer’s monitor or display screen.

Video Card Upgrades? Well this is probably the best way to enhance your systems graphics and picture. As a Computer savvy I could say that this on e of the important things you should consider specially if you are a Gamer. Specially, nowadays that most new games needs a load of video memory.

There are certain factors you will have to consider before deciding if you need a Video Card Upgrade. Here are those:

1.) What Video Card Do you have?

This is would probably the first question you have to ask if you are looking for a Video Card upgrade. Most computer motherboard nowadays comes with an integrated Video. One way to check it is by running the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, to open this: Click on Start > Click on Run > and type "dxdiag" > Under display Tab you can see it under "Device" Header.

You may also check it with your invoice if you have a separate video card installed. If you do not see any Video card in your invoice you probably have an integrated video card.

2.) What Video Card do you need?

This is what I think the second factor you should consider in upgrading your video card. We should know what video card you need. For Gamers, the best way to know what video card yo need is to check the system requirements of the game you are going Play or would like to play. This will give you the hint of what video card you need. For non gamers, I would recommend you to at least have a 64 MB Video Memory of any type of video card would good enough. One thing you would like to put in your mind. It is better to have a better video card than less one. At least you save time and money from upgrading again in the future.

3.) What Video Card does your system supports?

This would be the third factor but I think this is the most important factor you should consider in upgrading your Video card. It is useless to have the best video card and not being able to use it. The keyword here is "Compatibility". You should know what your system supports. The first thing to know is the interface of the Video card that your system supports. The best way to check it is by knowing what your motherboard supports.

First you should know if your system can support a PCI(Peripheral Component Interconnect), an AGP ( Accelerated Graphics Port) or a PCI-E (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express).

After knowing what is the interface your system supports. You will also need to check the power supply you have and the video card's power supply requirements. Video Cards with a PCI and a AGP Interface usually requires a Power Supply upto 300 Watts but there are some High end AGP Video cards that requires 350 Watts to 400 Watts Power supply. But if you are looking for a PCI-E Video Card I would recommend you to have at least 400 Watts of Power supply, but some highend video cards require more than that depending on an video cards requirements. Another thing also for some Advance and Hardrcore gamers that used dual video card the Scalable Link Interface (SLI) for Nvidia and CrossFire for ATI, this technology uses 2 high end video cards to combine its performance in one output. This usually requires at least 700 Watts of Power supply and some may require more. This is recommended for advance users.

4.)Where do we go for Video Card Upgrades?

Video card Upgrades can be purchased in every computer store. I cannot tell which video card to use or buy. I can only say that in purchasing a new video card upgrade, aside from its technical aspects you will need also to consider the price. Spending $100 plus more or less is enough, or if you are here in the Philippines, there are also much cheaper video cards that ranges from 1000 to 3000 pesos depending on your needs. But if you are a high end gamer, spending woung range from $200 - $400 more or less or 4000 to 10,000 pesos more or for the latest and high end video cards. Not to mention you need to upgrade your power supply and the cooling system of your system since high end requires it. Plus before purchasing it, please make that you have checked the video cards specs and reviews online. I would also recommend you to contact your OEM Technical Support or Upgrade Support for recommendations.

Video Card Upgrades is one of the essential upgrades you will be doing for your computer. Although it does not affect much of the speed of your Computer compared to RAM Upgrades. It is also important because if we are using an integrated video it shares with our physical RAM, and by adding a separate video card it will free some resources and will results to an additional speed to your computer.

I do hope this post helps you in deciding a video card upgrade.

Naruto: Shippuden - Season II

Continuation of Naruto: Shippuden

Naruto: Shippuden - Season II

Episodes 27 to 32:
And It's the final stand against Sasori, and Chiyo reveals the flaw in Sasori's "immortality". As Sasori breathes his last breaths, he rewards the two kunoichi for his defeat by providing them some valuable information. In ten days, they will have the opportunity to meet with one of his spies who can provide them with information on Orochimaru, and Sasuke as well. As Kakashi and Naruto chase after Deidara, and Sakura and Chiyo rest from their fight with Sasori, Gai and his team continue to fight their exact clones of themselves. Kakashi unleashes his new Mangekyo Sharingan against Deidara, turning the tide of the battle in their favor, but when Naruto begins to act strangely when he found out that Gaara is already dead, the Kyubi's chakra begins to leak and forms 2 tails, luckily Kakashi is prepared for this situation and act quickly to suppress it using the seal Jiraiya has given to him. On the other hand Deidara was cornered by Team Gai seemingly self-destructs while attempting to kill his attackers by creating a massive explosion after eating the remains of his chakra infused clay bird. The explosion is countered by Kakashi, who is able to send it to a different dimension. Sakura cannot bring Gaara back to life, and the group mourns Gaara's death. While the group mourns, Chiyo moves over to Gaara's body and uses the life-resurrection technique. As she is about to finish her technique, she passes down to Naruto and Sakura her wisdom for the future. A revived Gaara finds himself surrounded by shinobi from Sunagakure celebrating his return. After Gaara discovers that Chiyo has passed away, he asks everyone to pray silently for Chiyo's sacrifice. They have returned to the sand village and Team Kakashi and Team Gai pays respect to Chiyo's grave before leaving.

Episodes 33 to 35:
As soon as the teams return to konoha, kakashi rests in the infirmary and Sakura reported to Tsunade the information about Sasori meenting his spy from within Orochimaru's ranks in 10 days. 4 days have passed since Sakura receive the information after defeating Sasori. As Naruto search for a new team members, an unknown shinobi attacked them while they were talking with his other friends. It was Sai, a Shinobi from the Danzo's command joins the team. Tsunade asks Yamato (a captain from ANBU to lead the team in the absence of Kakashi that is still bedridden after using too much of his Sharingan from the last battle.

Episodes 36 to 46:
So the new Team Kakashi headed by Yamato together with Naruto, Sakura and the new addition Sai. As they head to The Bridge of Heaven and Earth where the spy is meeting Sasori, Yamato paired Naruto and Sai as one although they are not doing well with each other and Sakura to support Yamato. So they have designed a plan. Yamato disguises himself as Sasori after creating a wood replica of Hiruko (the puppet of Sasori). The spy turns out to be Orochimaru's right-hand man, Kabuto Yakushi, who reveals the location of Orochimaru's current hideout to Yamato. Orochimaru interrupts the meeting, appearing to attack Kabuto, and while it initially appears that Orochimaru has come after Kabuto, Kabuto attacks Yamato and reveals that he is truly loyal to Orochimaru. Orochimaru calls out Naruto, Sakura and Sai from where they are hiding and observing the meeting, and prepares to fight the team. As Yamato signals the team, they went out to meet Orochimaru and Kabuto. Naruto cannot control his temper and his chakra begins to boil with the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Fox. Slowly, Naruto grows more tails as Orochimaru taunts him and makes him even more angry. Meanwhile, Yamato remembers Jiraiya speaking of how many tails he has seen Naruto grow. Jiraiya explains more about what happened and more about how Naruto acts when he's in his Nine-Tails form. Eventually the fourth tail appears, allowing the vile chakra to completely control Naruto's body, forming him into a miniature Nine-Tailed Fox. Naruto, begins attacking Orochimaru with incredible force, devastating the surrounding landscape and preventing Sai and Yamato's wood clone from approaching him. The majority of Orochimaru's attacks prove to be ineffective, but Naruto also fails to kill Orochimaru as he regenerates from any injuries he sustains. Meanwhile, Kabuto advances toward Sakura and Yamato, deducing that Sasori has died. Orochimaru finally manages to strike Naruto with a sword blade from his mouth, and Sakura reacts in horror when she sees Naruto's four-tailed state. Sakura begins to cry and approaches Naruto but is injured when his attention turns to her. Yamato uses the mokuton jutsu to bind Naruto before he does any more harm. Kabuto heals Sakura, reasoning that the Konoha ninja are not Orochimaru's enemies because they are also fighting Akatsuki. Yamato uses the abilities of the 1st Hokage to forcibly return Naruto to his normal state. Meanwhile Sai confronts Orochimaru with a message from Danzo. Orochimaru responds by piercing Sai with Kusanagi. Yamato uses the first Hokage's chakra to suppress the demon fox's chakra and Naruto returns to normal, but with severe injuries. Sakura begins to heal him, but notes that medical ninjutsu has little effect on his wounds. Orochimaru's sword is revealed to have only pierced one of Sai's clones. The real Sai emerges, talks to Orochimaru and gives him a letter from Danzo. Sai then leaves with Orochimaru and Kabuto but Yamato's wood clone stays close on their trail. Yamato infers that Danzo seeks to destroy and remake Konoha by collaborating with Orochimaru. Naruto finally makes sense of the destruction he witnessed around him earlier. Kabuto creates a fake corpse that resembles Sai, containing hidden traps to slow down Yamato's clone after sensing it. Naruto hasn't completely recovered from using the Demon Fox's chakra but Naruto is determined to finish his mission and not slow the team down. However Team Kakashi is forced to take a break when it's clear that Sakura has not fully recovered from her own injuries. Yamato then uses this opportunity to talk to Naruto alone and reveals to him that the one who hurt Sakura was Naruto himself.Yamato tells Naruto not to rely on the demon because Naruto is strong enough to withstand the demon's terrible chakra. Orochimaru's group reach their base, not realizing that Yamato's wood clone trailed them there. Sai gets a glimpse of Sasuke's silhouette and eyes and discovers that he is the man Naruto and Sakura are looking for.

Episodes 47 to 52:
As Sai receives a chilling glare from Sasuke's Sharingan that frightens him. Sai gives Orochimaru a bundle with information about Konoha's ANBU. Yamato gives Sakura and Naruto seeds with his chakra that enables him to track them inside the lair. Kabuto locks Sai in a room, and the boy summons a bingo book from scrolls he carries. Yamato uses a jutsu to open a tunnel into Orochimaru's hideout, and he, Naruto and Sakura travel to Sai's room undetected. Yamato and the team enter Sai's room and confront him while Kabuto makes his way there as well. Sai tells Team Kakashi that not only was he to help with Konoha's destruction but also act as a spy against Orochimaru. Sai then tells the group about his bond with his brother. Finally the team decides what to do about Sai's betrayal outside the lair. In doing so, Naruto tells the group about his own bonds and about how far he's willing to go to bring Sasuke back. Kabuto fights Team Kakashi and frees Sai. However, Sai, who intends to learn more about his bond with his brother through Naruto's bond with Sasuke, betrays him. Captured, Kabuto gives a vague description of Sasuke's location to the team. Leaving Yamato's wood clone to watch over Kabuto, Team Kakashi enters Orochimaru's hideout and splits up to find Sasuke. As Team Kakashi continues their search for Sasuke, Naruto suddenly collapses due to his previous fight with Orochimaru. As Naruto wakes up, Sai begins to reveal more about his brother, but Orochimaru suddenly attacks them. Sakura and Yamato come to Naruto's aid against Orochimaru, while Sai continues the search. Just as Sai finds Sasuke, Yamato finds Sai's bingo book with Sasuke listed as a target for assassination. As Team Kakashi continues their search for Sasuke, Sai approaches Sasuke's room and awakens him. Shaken by the image of Sasuke's Sharingan from earlier, Sai attempts to restrain him. A large explosion occurs and Sakura, Naruto and Yamato catch up. At first Sakura tries to restrain Sai in order to find out his true objective, but she stops, stunned at seeing her former comrade. Contrary to what the rest of the team assumed to be his mission, Sai tells them that he wishes to bring Sasuke back to Konoha. Sasuke begins to attack Naruto, but Sai restrains him only for them both to be blown away by Sasuke's Chidori Nagashi. Sakura charges at Sasuke, but Yamato intervenes and winds up being stabbed by Sasuke's unique blade infused with his Chidori. The Nine-Tailed Fox tempts Naruto with its power, but he refuses it. Sasuke sees this using his Sharingan, appearing in Naruto's mind. The Nine-Tails says that Sasuke's chakra reminds him of Madara Uchiha, then Sasuke suppresses the Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra. Before the Nine-Tailed Fox returns to its cage, it warns Sasuke not to kill Naruto, saying that he will live to regret it forever.

Naruto debuted in the United States on Cartoon Network’s Toonami programming block on September 10, 2005, and in Canada on YTV’s Bionix on September 16, 2005. Now it is now on its third season.

Naruto: Shippūden
First aired last 2/15/2007 with the pilot episode " Homecoming ", so two and a half years have passed since Naruto left with Jiraiya to train. Now he is back, and although most things are the same, other things have changed. From Konohamaru becoming a Genin to Tsunade's head being added to the Great Stone Faces. Finally back in Konoha, Naruto resumes his old life, only he's changed as well...
Since it is now on its Third Season I will just be giving you the episode guide and summary of each season.

Naruto: Shippuden - Season I
The first season of Naruto Shippuden started when Naruto and Jiraiya returned to Konoha. So Naruto rejoined with the team Kakashi. It is all about the the attack of Akatsuki (A group of high Class Ninja) in the Sand Village and capturing Gaara which is now a Kazekage (Head of the Hidden Sand Village) and one the Jinchuuriki (A person that has a tailed beast inside). He was captured by Deidara(Member of Akatsuki that is specialized in molding clay and uses it as an explosive). Together with Sasori (Member of Akatsuki that is specialized in controlling puppets, known as the puppet master of the red Sand), they brought Gaara to a secret hideout to extract Shukaku (One of the Tailed Beast that is sealed inside Gaara). So Team Kakashi was sent to help and just in time to save Kankuro that was poisoned by Sasori in trying to rescue Gaara. So Sakura shown what she was trained for as a Medical Ninja. Team Gai was sent also as a backup to team Kakashi. Kakashi sent Pakkun (one of Kakashi's summoned, tracking dogs) and the rest of the dogs find the hideout where Gaara was brought. Luckily one of the hand of Kankuro's puppet have slashed a piece of cloth from Sasori puppet before he passed out, they used it to track and find out where the hideout of Akatsuki. After a couple of hours Pakkun is back to give Kakashi the location of the hideout, and was sent to meet Team Gai halfway to guide them to the hideout and meet Team Kakashi there. So Team Kakashi head to the hideout and surprisingly one of the elders of the Sand Village and the Grand mother of Sasori, Elder Chiyo, she is also one of the puppet masters of the Sand Village. On the way to the hideout of Akatsuki, Team Gai and Team Kakashi. Akatsuki has made a diversion to buy some time and delay them. They have used an advance technique which uses a sacrifice to and given 30% of there chakra to summoned a fake Kisame (Member of Akatsuki that is specialized in Water Techniques with an enormous Chakra) and fake Itachi (Member of Akatsuki that is specialized in using Sharingan and the Older Brother of Suske). This is one of my favorite episodes where in Naruto shows His Growth where he tries release himself from Itachi's Genjutsu (An Illusion Technique) and failed but with the help from Chiyo and Sakura he was released, and using Great Ball Rasengan to finish Itachi's Clone and Gai defeats Kisame's Clone using his Morning Peacock technique. So Team Guy and Team Kakashi both finish their breaks and go on towards the Akatsuki lair. But they were too late Akatsuki has finished extracting Shukaku from Gaara, who dies wondering if he has become a person whom others need. Team Gai fights with exact clones of themselves, a trap set off by their removal of the barrier tags. Deidara takes Gaara's body outside of the cavern, followed by Naruto and Kakashi. Chiyo and Sakura stay behind to fight Sasori. So the Season End up Chiyo summons the Ten Puppets of Chikamatsu versus the one hundred human puppets of Sasori, the final battle begins. Sakura and Chiyo seem to trap and defeat Sasori but, under cover of the battle, Sasori, who had transferred himself to another puppet, attacks Chiyo from behind. Sakura intercedes, taking the sword thrust meant for Chiyo.

Intel Centrino 2 Platform

2008-07-12T12:46:00.000-07:00

This Monday (July 14, 2008), Intel will be launching its latest mobile platform, The Intel Centrino 2.

The Intel Centrino 2 systems featuring discrete graphics from ATI or NVIDIA will be available. However, notebooks that include Intel's integrated graphics will still be unavailable.

It is capable of running at 2.4GHz to 2.8GHz core speeds. It will also support DDR3 memory and includes Eco Peak technology, which allows support both for 802.11n and WiMAX. Plus an extended battery life due to the shrinking of processors from 65nm from the previous notebook platforms to the new 45nm CPU used in Centrino 2. So this will mean more mobility for users, and the heat output should also be lowered as well. The announced power consumption for the Montevina processors is said to be 25W, 10W less than the previous mobile chips. And Its biggest advantage will be the improved graphics, ‘cause the new GM45 integrated graphics card supports DirectX 10 to handle 3D graphics and high-definition content.

I think this will be the answer to all gamers that uses Notebook to play. I can't wait to get a hold of this.

Computer Maintenance

2008-07-08T02:17:00.000-07:00

The question here is "Do you want to add life on your computer?".

We may have different uses for our Computer, but as a Computer user we need to maintain it, to have a better and smooth experience not to mention if we are using it to do our work. This is where Computer Maintenance comes in.

Most Computer Users spend a fortune just to have the best computer and the top of the line peripherals. For me I consider that as an investment and I don't blame others for spending that much just to have it. Since I consider it as an investment, I have to protect and take care of my investment.

Here are some basic Computer Maintenance Tips I can share:

1.) Turn off your computer properly
One of the causes of permanent hard drive failure and defect is the the sudden power shutdown. So for your hard drives health, Never, I mean never turn off your computer by pushing the power button or by pulling the plug from the outlet. And in case it hangs, that is the only way to you push the reset button key or if the keyboard is still active just press Ctrl+Alt+Delete keys at the same time twice to restart or reboot your computer.
I would also also recommend using a UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply), this will give you time to save and turn off your computer properly in case there is a power outage.
Turn off your computer before unplugging any peripherals unless it is "hot swap" enable. This will short or cause your computer to freeze.

2.) Scandisk and Defrag
Running Scandisk and Disk Defragmenter once a month is recommended. This will keep your hard drive healthy and for you monitor its health. Using some hard drive utilities would also be advisable.

3.) Update Antivirus
Install and regularly update your Anti-virus and Anti-Spyware program. This is one of the basic application or program that we must have in our computer specially if you are regularly using the Internet. We must have this application to have protection from viruses and spy wares on the net. We can use some Free Anti-virus and Anti-Spyware program or if you want a premium package your can get it with just a couple of bucks. Either of the two would be good as long as it updates and protects.

4.) Turn on your Firewall
Turning on your Firewall is also advisable specially when you are always surfing. By doing this it will protect your Computer just like Anti-virus and Anti-Spyware program did. Plus it will protect you from unwanted visitors.

5.) Backup
Always keep a backup of your files, data or pictures. This will give you a worry free life in case you computer crashes. Using a Flash Drive or a second hard drive would be recommended. Burning it to a CD /DVD using CD /DVD burner would also be advisable.

6.) Free Space
Do keep at least 100MB free hard disk space or I would recommend at least 500MB Free hard disk space on your computer. This will prevent your computer from choking or hanging when you are open or use an application. This usually happens when you are multi tasking, meaning opening a browser and playing some music or other application at the same time.

7.) Ventilation
Having an Air conditioned room for your computer is recommended, however if you do not have it, just keep or place it in a well ventilated room would be required. One of the worst enemy to your computer is heat. It causes the internal components and chips to wear out. It also lowers the performance of your system.
For most computers it needs a better cooling system. Installing some extra fan or other cooling system would also be advisable.

8.) Direct Sunlight
One of most basic health care instruction and I even read it once in a computer box. Never, put your computer where is a direct sunlight. It raises your computers temperature and may lead to overheating.

9.) Keep it clean
Always keep it clean. Remove the dust. Dust is like a blanket, which keeps the chips of your components nice and hot. The more dust, the hotter they get. The best way is to clean the outer part every day with a soft cloth and for the inside part of your tower a vacuum cleaner hose would be advisable.

Hope this Computer Maintenance Tips help you in maintaining your computer to run smoothly. Computer is one investment we do not want to go into waste. So let us take care of it. As they say "Prevention is Better than Cure".
