21 Tips For Better Sex

ALWAYS KISS HER FIRST If you head straight for the business district, she'll feel like you're paying by the hour. Kissing is a great way to get her motor running, so make it lengthy and imaginative, that means more than 2 seconds. Start gently, and then graduate into a long, passionate kiss. It wouldn't hurt to nibble (lightly!) and suck on her lips, too. And she'll melt if you hold her face in your hands and play with her hair.
BUT DON'T PLAY TONSIL HOCKEY Try not to pop your tongue out the back of her head. He who goes deepest doesn't win.
RUB HER THE RIGHT WAY Oil is good. And the whole production is well worth the effort. A well greased body looks and feels sexier, and the slick stuff stops your hands from ripping off her skin, just don't maul your lady like you're loosening up Bill Romanowski for the Super Bowl, OK? Be creative and don't just focus on the obvious spots. Sure, breasts and thighs are sensitive, but nothing beats a lengthy butt rub.
MAKE SIZE MATTER Ninety-five percent of men measure the average five to seven inches when erect, but if you fall outside this range, there's plenty you can do to maximize the motion of your ocean.
• If you're under-funded, use a deep penetrating position, like with her on top facing you and leaning backward.
• If you're over-endowed (no smirking, there is such as thing as too big, and it hurts), hold back, stud. Ease into it slowly. She'll let you know when she wants it harder and faster.
GO TANTRIC If we complain that your technique is boring, look East for enlightenment. Originating in 3000 B.C., Tantric sex techniques allow intercourse to last for hours. The women who've tried it say it's great, but it might take you centuries to master. A good one to start with is thrusting in patterns: nine fast, deep ones, then one slow, shallow one; then eight deep, then two shallow; then seven deep and so on. Those old guys really knew their stuff, their shallow thrusts were finding her G-spot 5,000 years before any scientist did. Try the exotic sex page.TRIPLE HER ORGASMS This might sound complicated, but those who have played the game swear by it. The coital alignment technique (CAT) supposedly triples her chance of orgasm and gives you a better chance of having the simultaneous orgasm you thought only happened in the movies. Start in the missionary position, but then shift your hips a few inches up her body. This gives you a shallower penetration, and the shaft of your penis pushes up against all of her important parts. Resting your full weight on her, wrap her legs around yours, and synchronize your horizontal dancing so that your pelvic bone rubs against hers. Maintain a steady pace and have two pairs of industrial strength earplugs handy for the "oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, OH MY GOD" finale.
LEAVE THE HICKEYS IN HIGH SCHOOL It's true, we love it when you spend quality time on our necks, but we don't want to wear turtlenecks to work for a week. Though we wouldn't mind a few love bites in places no one but the gals in the locker room could see... UNDRESS HER SLOWLY Unlike porno actresses, real world women love the agony of anticipation and the torture of teasing. Plus, those nice, lacy bras we wear are not cheap. Rip them and we'll be pissed.
NIBBLE HER EARS A classic that still works. But don't stick your tongue straight in -- this isn't an extra orifice. Stick with kisses, nuzzles and licks all over, and don't blow in it, that's just loud and annoying. You're not inflating an air mattress. SEDUCE HER SPONTANEOUSLY "We were walking home from the bar, and he just scooped me up in his arms, kissed me and carried me the rest of the way home. It was only about 10 yards, but the gesture was there. We had unbelievable sex the second we shut the door," says Elaine, 20. To women, sex and romance are intrinsically linked; don't think of seduction as hard work but as a great way to improve your chances. MAKE HER LAUGH At you or with you? It's all the same. Laughter loosens inhibitions during sex. So try tickles, jokes, pillow fights or any fifth-grade tactic (except snapping her bra). "Mid-act, in a phony Barry White voice, my boyfriend said, `I want to make everything nice for you baby, just like in a Boy z II Men song,' and I just couldn't stop laughing," reveals Erin, 23. "I like nothing better than laughing during sex as long as it's at what he's saying, not what he's doing." LET HER LEAD ROUND TWO Mr. Woody ready for seconds? Don't plow right in. Take it slow and realize that she may feel tender and need to recover. Instead, enjoy the fact that you just got laid and that, if you warm her up just right, you'll get it again. BE SMOOTH WITH THE LOVE GLOVE Ahhh, the condom. Get it out, get it on, get going. Don't be awkward about it, or she will be, too. Keeping them nearby is a no-brainer, although having a dispenser by your bed will make her wonder. According to the women we surveyed, she'll help you put them on if you want -- anything to keep the mood going. Hey, she doesn't want to wait for a restart either. LET THE COWGIRL RIDE We love to climb on top. It's stimulating for us, and you can lie back and enjoy the sex and the view.But here's what you should know: She'll get much more stimulation if she leans forward toward you. She'll get much more stimulation if your finger's on the magic button. She might need to take a break because of leg cramps, so mix it up. If she starts flagging, roll over and take the wheel. As with any position, her stamina will increase with practice... so practice, practice, practice! STAND AND DELIVER One problem our survey respondents had with stand-up sex is that there's often a difference between your heights. That doesn't make sex of the vertical variety impossible -- it just means you've got to be smarter. Here's how: Take the stairs. If she's shorter, stand on flat ground and have her stand on the first step. Then, lift up one of her legs and turn it sideways for easy access. Pick her up. Stand face-to-face, and bend your knees slightly so you can penetrate her. Have her wrap her arms and legs around you, and pick her up. If you get tired, lean her up against a wall to help carry the weight. Buy her a pair of stilettos. There's no better excuse to ask her to sport a sexy pair of high heels in the bedroom. WINE ME, DINE ME... But why doesn't she want to 69 me?" Lots of guys complain that they don't get their favorite number often enough. Hello! This is because we don't like being squashed or we may feel too exposed on top. It you go at it sideways on the bed instead, both partners can be in control. Let her set the pace. And pay attention to the speed she's going -- it's a good indicator of how she wants you to do it.
BE A G WHIZ The G-spot. Should you choose to accept this mission, slide one or two fingers into her, curving them upward toward her stomach. You'll find a small, spongy area (about the size of a quarter) a third of the way up the vagina's front wall -- this is it. Stroke it, using a gentle, circular motion. What you do with this information is up to you.
DO POSTGAME ANALYSIS Find out how to do it even better next time. But avoid "Was that good?" and even worse "Did you...?" Even though you mean well, she may feel like you're putting her on the spot. She'll probably say yes, whether she did or not... until you really annoy her and then she says no. And that just hurts. Use your noggin and ask open-ended questions, such as "What did you like the most?"
GO EASY ON THE BOOBAGE Don't breast feed, bite, chew (ouch!) or act as if you're tuning a radio. Instead, treat breasts like they're soft serve ice cream cones: Use gentle kisses, caresses, long licks and strokes all over both breasts and take your time. And remember that we're sensitive about our boobs, just as you guys are insecure about your Johnsons, so compliment their beauty, not their size. FINISH THE J0B IF she does muster up the courage to say that you've left her hanging, don't mutter, "Better luck next time" as you drift off to dreamland. The game isn't over just because you made a touchdown.
KNOW WHEN TO FOLD 'EM Only 5 percent of the women say that the longer you last, the better. If you've been banging away for 30 minutes, trying to focus on the Expos shoddy relief pitching, odds are, she's not only tired of planning what color to paint that ceiling, but she's also probably getting a little sore.

for 6600 users, to format the fone, theres an alternative way. Press and hold <3>, <*> and Call (Send) buttons, then power on fone, keep holding on the 3 buttons, till u come to a format screen. this method ONLY works on 6600, and need not enter the sec code. BUT sec code would be reset to default 12345.

Tip 5: Type *#06# to display your IMEI serial number, very valuable for the unlocking your phone to other sim cards
Tip 6: Type *#0000# to view which firmware version you are running
Tip 4a: Set the screen saver to a short time out period to prolong battery life.Tip 4b: Avoid restarting the phone, or repeatedly turning it on and off. This helps increase battery life.
Tip 7: If you would like to avoid being "blue jacked", keep bluetooth turned off, or set your phone's visibility to hidden.
Tip 8: Don't want to carry a watch and a phone? Set the screen saver to show date and time, then you can ditch the watch.
Tip 9: Save memory when installing apps, by installing over bluetooth. This can be done using the nokia phone suite and a bluetooth serial connection. Only works with .SIS files, so java still has to be sent to the phone, but will save space when using .SIS files.

Tip 12: BlueJacking
First up, you need to know what Bluetooth is. There are lots of types of modern devices that incorporate Bluetooth as one of their many features. PDAs, mobile phones and laptops are a few of these modern devices. Bluetooth means that Bluetooth enabled devices can send things like phonebook/address book contacts, pictures & notes to other Bluetooth enabled devices wirelessly over a range of about 10 metres. So, we've got past the boring part. Now, using a phone with Bluetooth, you can create a phonebook contact and write a message, eg. 'Hello, you've been bluejacked', in the 'Name' field. Then you can search for other phones with Bluetooth and send that phonebook contact to them. On their phone, a message will popup saying "'Hello, you've been bluejacked' has just been received by Bluetooth" or something along those lines. For most 'victims' they will have no idea as to how the message appeared on their phone.
Tip 13: While you are viewing a picture in your phone's gallery, press one of these shortcut keys (definitely works on 6600, not sure about other symbians)1 - turn image anticlockwise3 - turn image clockwise* - toggle on/off of full screen5 - zoom in0 - zoom out

It does format the memory. Everything that has been installed after the first use of the phone is deleted! It will recover the memory of the phone to the state you purchased it! It is done by inputing the following code: *#7370# NOTE: The battery must be full or the charger has to be connected to the phone so that it does not run out of power and make the phone unusable.

Paul White presents 20 ways to ensure your studio runs smoothly

If only he'd taken notice ofthem himself, he might be managing Abbey Road by now!
Even a relatively small studio setup is a complex, symbiotic organism strung together by innumerable leads andoften relying on several pieces of software to make it run smoothly. All it takes is one faulty connection and thefunction of the whole system can be compromised. A little planning and preventative maintenance goes a longway, but because it's boring, it tends to get put off. Don't let it! This month's tips concentrate on those simplethings that if done will help your studio run smoothly, but if ignored, can disrupt smooth running... I have done myvery best to resist the temptation to point out that if you really want a smooth-running studio, the only PCcomputer in it should be used to do the accounts! And so, without further ado and in no particular order, hereare 20 things you can do to help keep the gremlins at bay.
1. Check all your mains cables periodically by removing the covers from theplugs and tightening the connectors. These do work loose with time and giverise to crackles and buzzes, not to mention the risk of electric shock. Ensurecable clamps and fuse holders are tight and that the correct fuse value is fitted.Budget distribution boards can be dismantled and the contacts tightened upusing a pair of pliers, but remember to unplug them first!
2. Wipe all jack plugs using a cloth sprayed with Deoxit (see right), and spray some intoyour patchbay sockets as well to help avoid the build-up of corrosion and dirt. This stuff also works well onmains plugs where it is essential to maintain a low impedance, especially on the earth pin. I don't know if I'd goto Martin Walker's lengths of cleaning all the mains plug pins with wire wool, but it can't do any harm.
3. Make up track sheets to document your recording sessions, and expand your design to includedetails on effects and processor settings. If the session includes sequenced sounds, keep a note ofall the synths, patch numbers, expansion cards and sample CD-ROMs used during the session. Adouble-sided track sheet with one side for audio and another for MIDI is a practical way to do the job.
4. If your sequencer doesn't have a facility for showing the patch names of your varioussynths, photocopy the relevant patch sheets from your synth manuals and get themlaminated. Many local photocopy shops do laminating quite cheaply and it saves thesheets getting creased or torn.
5. Label all used tapes. Labelling the boxes is not good enough as tapes oftenend up in the wrong boxes. Stick to the APRS labelling convention (for detailsof which see the January 1995 issue of SOS) so that master tapes, productionmasters and backups are clearly identified.
6. When you get a new piece of gear, take the time to learn it thoroughly before using it on a session whereother musicians are involved. Even if it's not a paid session, musicians will get impatient if you're messingaround with a piece of gear that you're not familiar with, and this in turn affects their creativity.
7. Many pieces of software have 'key-disk-installs' as a form of copy protection, and if you have a lotof software plug-ins, it's easy to lose track. To ensure you don't miss any if you have to deinstalleverything from your hard drive, keep a notepad file with the names and version numbers of all thekey-disk-install protected software you have on the machine. It also helps to keep all your key disksin one (safe) place.
8. Use a separate hard drive for recording your audio files and defragment it regularly. Failure to do this willreduce the number of simultaneous tracks you can play back without suffering glitching. Try not to work with adrive that's more than around three-quarters full as it can slow down noticeably.
9. Back up everything, especially if it's digital! Digital data cannot be consideredto truly exist unless it is stored in at least two, and preferably more, differentplaces! If you have a CD-ROM recorder, make a copy of your entire hard driveso that it will be easier to reinstall your system in the event of a serious crash.Of course you can't copy key disk installs to a CD-ROM, so you still need totake care of these by manually deinstalling. The same CD-ROM recorder can beused to store the audio files used in your sequences. If you make a lot ofchanges, you might want to use a rewritable disk/drive, but standard CD-Rs are so cheap that it'shardly worth it.
10. When wiring your studio, always make the cables just a little longer than you need. There'll come a timewhen you want to move something, and Sod's Law dictates that your cables won't quite reach! Line-level cablescan safely be made a few metres longer than necessary without compromising the signal quality, especially ifthey are balanced.
11. Do a SysEx dump of all the user patches in your synths, modules and effects units and thenmake further backups of these. You never know when the internal batteries may die, resulting in theloss or corruption of all your patches (see page 42 for more on this). If you use RAM memory cards,you should also back these up as SysEx dumps as everything is lost when the battery is removed.
12. Subscribe to an Internet service, especially if you use a PC for your music. Often the only way to ensure youhave the latest drivers is to check the manufacturers' web sites and then download what you need. The Internetis also a useful place to look for answers to your technical problems, and of course the SOS site is brim full ofPC-related FAQs (see picture on page 200).
13. Even if you don't play guitar, buy a guitar tuner. There'll come a time when a guitarist turns up atthe studio without one and even if you do tune it to a keyboard, it's bound to drift out as the day goeson. It pays to check guitar and bass tuning before just about every take.
14. Don't skimp on media, whether it's DAT tapes, CD-R blanks, ADATtape or whatever. You've spent a lot of time and money on your music, soit makes sense to preserve it in the most reliable way possible. Also,follow the manufacturer's advice on storage.
15. However much RAM your software tells you it needs to runproperly, always fit at least 16Mb more and preferably 32Mb more.At today's low prices, it doesn't make sense to cut corners, andhaving inadequate amounts of RAM can cause all sorts ofproblems, including crashes.
16. Use the right cables for connecting digital audio. Cheap audio phonoleads may appear to work when connecting one S/PDIF device toanother, but you could end up with intermittent clicks and glitches. Buy purpose-made digital cables and keepthe connections as short as is practical.
17. Don't cut corners when choosing a computer monitor. Most audio software feels distinctlycramped on anything other than a 17-inch monitor, but don't just buy the cheapest as you may endup with a fuzzy display that strains your eyes. A really good monitor will cost a little more, but youmay be able to change the display resolution to make it display as much as a 19-inch monitor with noloss of definition.
18. Arrange your equipment racks so that you can get to the back easily if you need to. No matter how cleveryour patching system, the time will come when you have to string together something out of the ordinary.Self-adhesive PTFE (Teflon) gliders fixed to the bottom of a large rack make it easy to move on carpet.
19. Mark up your patchbays clearly. I know you don't get a lot of space, but if your abbreviations aretoo cryptic, visiting musicians won't have a clue as to what goes where. I print mine using an inkjetprinter with eight socket labels per line using tabs to set the spacing between sockets. Three stripscover the full width of a 24-pair patchbay, and clear Sellotape gives a good protective finish to thelabels.
20. When you buy a new piece of equipment, stick the receipt to the bottom of the case so you can find itquickly in the event of a breakdown within the warranty period. Those self-adhesive pockets used to hold parceldocuments are good for this.

ResumeMaker's Top 25 Tips for Negotiating Your Salary

Throughout your job search you need to seriously consider several questions about your financial value and future income. What, for example, are you worth? How much should you be paid for your work. How can you best demonstrate your value to an employer? Salary negotiation is something at which hiring managers are usually a lot more proficient than the people they hire are. In the interest of leveling the playing field, here is a list of tips for salary negotiation that has worked for many people.

1. Maximize on your past experience. Understand what you have achieved. Bring your past experiences to the table as a tool when negotiating for your salary.

2. Make a list of what you have to offer. Know what you have to offer a future employer. Make a list of your skills, abilities, talents, and knowledge. Be prepared to show your employer what capability you bring to their company. Make sure you have some firm basis for added compensation, i.e., skills, abilities, and value to the company.

3. How badly does this job need to be filled? Find out what you are worth to the employer and how badly (or not) they need to fill this position with a qualified candidate. This gives you more negotiating power.

4. Wait for an offer. Delay discussing salary until you've been offered the position.

5. Demonstrate excitement for the job. First, make sure you want the job and are excited about the job, then let the employer know that you really want the job, but that you are only hesitating because of salary.

6. Do not bring personal needs into the discussion. Don't discuss the monetary needs for your family or the cost of living. This will not get you very far in most cases.

7. Be prepared with salary options. Come up with three salary figures for yourself: the low-ball (not in your life) offer, an offer that would make you smile, and one that would make you jump up and down and call all your friends. Shoot for a salary between your middle figure and your high figure.

8. Remember that the employer has a budget. Understand that most employers have a range in mind (budgeted for the position) and will actually start at the low end of that budget to give themselves some negotiating room. This does not mean they will try to low-ball the position and pay less than they think the position is worth. This is usually not in their best interest since they are looking for qualified candidates.

9. Know your absolute bottom line. Know what your minimum salary range must be to support the life you want to live. Although it is not advisable to bring this up in the interview, you will need to know what your absolute bottom figure is.

10. Let the employer bring up salary first. Wait for their offer. Stall when asked directly what your salary requirements are. For example: "I would consider any reasonable offer." If the salary question comes up too early, try side-stepping the issue with a statement such as, "I'm open to discussion about salary and compensation, but I'm sure that will be no problem once I've shown how my experience will be of great benefit to the company."

11. Employers like negotiating. Remember that negotiating for salary is often looked on favorably by potential employers. It reinforces the idea that they've made the right decision in offering you the position. It lets them feel confident that, because you can keep your best interests in mind, you can probably look after the best interests of the company as well.

12. Do your comparative salary research. Know the going rate or fair market value for your position. Be prepared to discuss these figures once salary negotiation has come up. Have a salary range in mind.

13. Understand your geographical area strengths and weaknesses. When tracking down your worth, make sure you look at similar positions at similar companies in your geographical area. Salary ranges vary dramatically across the nation and even from rural to urban areas.

14. Be prepared to market yourself. Emphasize the reasons you should get the offer and de-emphasize or OMIT any reasons you should not.

15. Be prepared to explain your salary history. If your previous salary has been at a high rate, be prepared to freely let the employer know what you have been making in a previous position, i.e., a written salary history.

16. Anticipate the employer's objections. Anticipate that the employer will have objections for the salary range you want, i.e., they can't afford more, don't think you're worth more, etc. Know in advance how you will overcome them.

17. Make your salary discussion a friendly experience. Assume amiability when discussing salary, not conflict or controversy. You should make the employer feel that you are on the same side and working together to find a compensation package that would satisfy everyone's needs. Anticipate a win-win situation.

18. Dispute any doubts about your suitability for the position. You will have the most influence if salary is the only source for hesitation. Make sure that there are absolutely no other concerns from your employer or doubts that you are the best candidate for the position.

19. Justify your cost-effectiveness. Try pointing out to the company how your ability will help reduce costs through your performance so you can justify higher pay.

20. Remain calm and poised. Once the offer has been made, and appears too low, remain quiet as though you were pondering the offer. This will imply your dissatisfaction with the offer and the uncomfortable silence may prompt the interviewer to improve the offer on his/her own.

21. Be creative. If the company just can't afford a higher salary, try asking for other benefits, a company car or allowances, bonuses, 3-6 month performance raises, stock options, profit sharing, vacation days, or temporary housing.

22. Be flexible. Consider working fewer hours, on a consulting basis, four days a week.

23. Consider other options and perks. Sometimes companies offer one-time cash bonuses, or "hiring bonuses," to help entice waffling candidates. Try to find out how the company feels about this issue.

24. Count on the future. Remember that even if you aren't able to increase the salary (because of a fixed company cap—not because these tips weren't helpful) that the employer will feel reinforced from your negotiations—as though he got a good deal. This will play better for you when raises are taken into account in the future.

25. Be prepared to walk away if necessary. You can always walk away from the negotiating table if you just aren't getting into your minimum range.

How to lay them in 25 minutes flat! macking tips

"

Hi, I noticed you not noticing me." Adrian Tirla´s approach line.
Case
Study: How to bag them in 25 minutes flat! Ok, I know this newsletter is longer
than usual, but this is the latest, hottest, easiest way to get laid. Other than
the timeswomen picked me up to have sex, this was the fastest! And it can work
for anyone, as you´ll see.

Last week I was at a beer fest in Brazil.
As with all beer fests, it had a lot of drunken motherfuckers, pukeycurbs,
loud music etc. I was on a mission to get laid, but it was atough one: single
women here live with their parents, and ALL the guysare players. So one-night
stands don’t come about everyday, and whenthey do, it is usually with some
native mack. But I had to try.

I was walking around, looking for a fine chick to hit on.
There was a girl that looked like one of my cousins, so that was myapproach line.- Excuse me; are you a cousin of mine?- No! she replied, somewhat humored. That was my green light.Is your last name Berger?Burger?Berger, with an e.Nope.What about Lee? Or Schwartz? Brown? McCartney? DeNiro? Fox? Bush?Einstein? Brando? Jordan? At this point she was already cracking up.

I sensed a good vibe from her, so I kept the conversation going abouther: where she is from, when she got there, where she was staying etc.
I realized that she was letting me do the boob-touch, so I knew she wasenjoying it.
After about five minutes of chit chat, I asked her name, and exchange 3cheek kisses, as is customary here in Brazil. After the last cheekkiss, I went in for a lip kiss. She moved away slightly. I then triedagain, and she smiled. I tried again and she let me kiss her. We madeout for a while (you got to get their motor running).
People around were surprised, but I kept at it for another few minutes.We then found a corner and chatted some more.
The chat was groundbreaking, at least for me. I think I have finallyfound out how to get them excited by talking about sex.
(For those of you who haven’t read my book, I state adamantly to nottalk about sex with a chick, as it gets their guard up.) Although thislaw still applies, I would like to add an addendum:

****** After making out with them, you can strike a conversation thatstarts off slightly sexual, but that soon becomes sexually revealing.

The way this played out with her was that I asked her where she worked.She told me some mall. I asked if it was at the sex shop in that mall.She giggled a no. I told her that I thought I had seen her therebefore, maybe buying a dildo.- No, never!- Or maybe it was big electric vibrator?- Nope!- Maybe a male blow up doll?- Nooo! Ok, maybe!She was enjoying the sex talk. So I stated a variation of the 20questions game, where I ask her a question, she has to answer, then sheasks me a question.- Do you have a dildo?- No.- Do you? She asked.- I once bought one for my girl friend.- My turn, have you ever used a dildo?- Once.- Was it good?- It was ok, too smooth, I like the bumpy ones.- The real deal, huh?- Yeah, warm, hard, the whole nine yards.- I only got 7 inches.She laughs.Her turn: What positions do you like?- Doggy style and sitting.- What about you?- Doggy style.- What about 69?- They are ok.- I love them.- What about when I go down on you, do you like that?- Its ok, but I rather you go in me.- Your not very clitoral huh?- I guess not.- So you should get a dildo.- Will you buy me one?- I’ll have one made from my dick, for you to use when I’m away.- My turn: oral, do you like to give or receive?- Give.- What do you like about it?- I like the way it feels in my mouth.(I was going to ask if she like to swallow, but I skipped on that, toorisky)Her turn: Are you an ass or a tit man?- Both, but mostly tits. Can I feel yours (as I grabbed them before sheanswered)?My turn: are you wet right now (as I pushed my underpants againsthers)?- Soaking.
Ok, she was on fire and so was I. I had to persuade her to my hotelroom, otherwise I would lose that momentum we had. What would be a goodexcuse to get her to my room?
- Have you tried a body shot?- What’s that?- Oh my god, it is the most fun way to drink tequila, want to try?- Ok.- I got a bottle in my room, want to wait here or want walk with me?- I’ll walk.It was on; although I could not let her get rational or let her friendsstop her.
- We’re going to go get a bottle of tequila and we’ll be back, I toldher friends, we’ll be back in jiffy. Meet you here.- OK!

During the walk, I stuck to the twenty questions while making out withher occasionally.We got to the motel. She wanted to stay downstairs and wait, I told hershe should come up so we can do a shot up there, since we needed to cutsome limes.
We got up; she went to the bathroom (probably to clean up). I got thelimes and tequila ready. She got out; I gave her a shot glass, lime,cheers and swig! Damn good! I grab her by the waste, we make out somemore, I started taking off her clothes, and she grabs my dick. Itsmotherfucking on! My pants come off before hers (you got to lead somegirls) throw her on the bed and the rest is history.
30 minutes later we are back with her friends with the bottle oftequila. No one suspected a thing, except that she wouldn’t stopsmiling.

******* End of Case Study

In retrospect, I guess what was essential was first to find a chickthat enjoyed your approach line.
Then, what helped was that we made out less than 5 minutes, making thewhole experience emotional from the start, making it seem like we hitit off right away.
The new technique is the sex talk, which, I must remind you, shouldonly be used after you made out with the chick and you two are both inthat comfort zone where you two feel like you have been dating for awhile. Any other time and you’ll scare her.
The last key thing was to close the deal right away. Take her to aprivate area, a nook, your room or apartment, car etc. so that you twocan get a little wilder. Just don’t tell them what you plan to dothere, come up with a different excuse.

Try this out tonight. Let me know on Monday how fast it worked for you.
Cheers,Anthony

TOP TEN TIME MANAGEMENT TIPS

(How to find the 25th hour in your day!)
1. Cut back on the time you spend watching television, aimlessly surfing the web, etc.
Anything you do on an average of 30 minutes each day consumes a full week’s time for
every year of your life.
2. Know thyself. Start keeping track of how you are currently utilizing your time and, if
necessary, re-prioritize in a manner that is conducive to achieving your goals and
objectives.
3. Do it right the first time. If you don’t have the time to do it right, when will you have the
time to do it over?
4. Make a realistic schedule and stick to it. Make sure to be realistic about how long things
take to accomplish.
5. Get enough sleep. Even though you immediately lose out on some awake time, it will
pay off in the long run. You are twice as productive when well-rested than you are when
fatigued.
6. Handle each piece of mail you receive only once.
7. Learn to say “no” to people.
8. Develop a routine doing the things that help further your goals.
9. Don’t multi-task yourself to death. Although it’s nice when you can do more than one
mindless thing at a time, this can leave you feeling harried and can lead to careless
mistakes.
10. Try to locate yourself in an area that will be free from interruptions and distractions
when you are trying to get something accomplished.

Edward R. Tufte’s Presentation Tips

(Provided at his seminar and paraphrased by Phillip Kerman)
Show up early Something good is bound to happen—if there’s no need to fix a mechanical problem or resolve a room conflict, you can always mingle with the audience.
How to start --Clearly tell the audience: What the problem is, who cares, and what your solution is.
--Notes on the stumble-bum technique (a high-risk approach): Tufte described a talk given by a humble high school math teacher to a lecture hall full of mathematics professors. On his first slide, the math teacher had a simple proof, with an error on the third line. Naturally, the professors leaned forward in their chairs to point out the flaw. For the rest of the presentation, the audience hung on every word, waiting for the next slip. Of course, there was no slip. Caution: if you use this technique, you had better know your stuff.
--Write out your own introduction.
Never apologize Most people wouldn’t have noticed the issues for which you’re apologizing—and it just sounds lame.
For complex information use: Particular, General, Particular Give a particular specific example, then a general overview, followed by a repeat of the particular to reinforce the point.
Always provide a handout --Text on paper can provide more information than verbal communication (e.g. it takes 22 minutes to read the top half of the New York Times aloud).
--This allows them to become engaged. --Assures that each point is covered (even if you forget something). Match your presentation to the level of The New York Times or Wall Street Journal Audiences don’t suddenly become dumber when they sit down to hear you speak—no reason to "dumb down" anything!
Audiences are precious: respect them Be clear—not simpleminded.
Humor—make sure it’s on point, not nasty or gratuitous It’s preferable to leave humor out if you risk alienating anyone—let alone the possibility of not being funny.
Do not use masculine pronouns—use plurals Even though it may not always be grammatically correct, you should say "they" instead of "him or her" and it will sound better—both because it’s shorter and because no one can be alienated. Why risk not communicating simply because someone may be sensitive?
Questions need to be treated very carefully --People’s opinion may be based more on how you answer their question than on how you present. People are often really saying "What about me?" when they ask a question.
--Right after you call for questions, count to 10 before assuming no one will ask. --To assure questions are asked, plant a person in the audience and give them a question. This also gets others motivated.
There must be a better way than using the overhead projector Tufte refers to it as "a trapezoid strip show" because the shape of the projected image is distorted, and people often use the technique of revealing only one line of the image at a time. Two other problems are that you have to turn off the lights (some people will fall asleep) and overheads only provide a fraction of information that can fit on a handout.
Show your enthusiasm! Don't hide behind a lectern. Use gestures. Walk around, directly engaging the audience. (If you’re not enthusiastic, why are you presenting on that topic?)
Finish early You never hear someone say "I really wish they had talked on and on for another 10 minutes."
Work hard --Prepare and practice for a critical audience.
--Practice in front of a video camera to spot flaws, mannerisms, and idiosyncrasies.
--In addition to using notes for content, make "metanotes" reminding you to use techniques; like making eye contact, not to mumble, not to keep sipping the water.
Innovate Don't be trapped by the conventional forms of the presentation. Be creative: find ways to take the presentation beyond a linear presentation of facts, and instead make it become something like a dialogue with your colleagues.
Drink enormous amounts of water If you’re flying to a presentation this is particularly important as air travel really dehydrates you. And never drink alcohol.

You can turn them off now.

Lamination Tips By Frank White

When laminating the ID with the matte pouches you want to be sure to put the sealed half of the pouch in the laminator first, so it wont bend in the laminator.A lot of the times people want to use glue when using a transparency over teslin then laminating, but I suggest no glue at all. The outer section of the lamination pouch will hold everything in place once its laminated. It's also good because it helps to past the 'bend test.' The bend test is a test that many bouncers use to see if your ID is real. They simply bend the id end to end, if it tears in the middle, then your screwed.Some people have asked me if using an iron is out of the question, and well, you must be one cheap ass. It's not worth the trouble to try to laminate an ID with an iron even though it is possible. I have heard suggestions about using some sort of thin cardboard between each side of the ID, but I have never tried that myself, good luck if you do!Another ID is to buy the iron on badge holders. But this just simply will not work. The size needed for a typical ID is between 25-35 mils, and dimensions of 2 1/8 x 3 3/8, using one of these badge holders is not an option.Definitely run your ID through the laminator 3 times. 1 time just doesn't do it. You need it completely sealed.One more thing to remember is depending on what type of lamination pouch you are using and what type of material you are using to print on, you need to adjust the size of the ID accordingly. For example, if you were laminating teslin, since it has unique bonding properties that adhere to the actual pouch when laminated, the id can actually extend over the rim of the ID and trimmed later. On the other hand, if you use glossy paper (not recommended for any state), you would need to cut the ID slightly smaller so the pouch can adhere to itself. Then again, if you have a butterfly pouch, things might be different because the 'glue' on the pouch is not only on the edge, but actually covers the entire id.

Garlic Preparation Tips

Garlic is indispensable in the pantry, but it can be tough to peel and chop. One of the best methods for preparing it is to slightly crush the cloves with the flat side of a knife. If you use chopped garlic often, spend a few minutes peeling a couple of whole heads of garlic, and chop in the food processor for just a minute or two. Store-bought chopped garlic is often preserved in phosphoric acid and water, which gives it a diluted flavor, but chopping your own and storing it in the fridge will give you all the convenience and flavor. If you find yourself with extra peeled garlic, put the cloves into a pot and cover with canola oil. Then stir once, cover, and cook on high until the garlic starts to brown. Remove from heat (the garlic will continue to cook in the hot oil) and drain, reserving the oil. Now you’ve got rich garlic oil and fresh roasted garlic.

10 Tips for English Learning

1. Connect: It's easier to memorize words based on a common theme. Make your own connections between words and possibly organize them in a spider diagram.
2. Write: Practically using vocabulary can help it stick in your mind. Write sentences with new vocabulary words or compose a story using a group of words or expressions.
3. Draw: Expose the artist in you by drawing pictures related to the words you study. Your drawings can help trigger your memory in the future.
4. Act: Get your moves on by acting out words and expressions you learn. Or, imagine and act out a situation where you would need to use them.
5. Create: Design flashcards in English and study them in your spare time. Each week make new ones, but continue to review all of them.
6. Associate: Assign different colors to different words. This association will help you recall vocabulary later.
7. Listen: Think about other words which sound similar to the words you're learning, especially complex words. Associate the other words with this new word to help you remember the pronunciation.
8. Choose: Remember that topics that interest you will be easier to learn. Therefore, carefully select words that you will find useful or interesting. Even the process of making the choice is a memory aid!
9. Limit: Don't try to memorize the dictionary in a day! Limit yourself to 15 words per day, and you'll gain confidence instead of feeling overwhelmed.
10. Observe: Keep an eye out for the words you're studying when reading or listening to English.

...:::Tips dan Tricks Carding:::...

By : CardingHost Bukan maksud utk menggurui rekan carder Indonesia lainnya, maka dgn segala kerendahan hati kami mencoba utk membagi Tips dan Tricks ini utk rekan - rekan yg ingin mencoba terjun dalam kegiatan carding....Bagi rekan carder yg memiliki nomor extrapolate, dpt mencoba membuat email bayar pada Network Solutions (www.networksolutions.com) dgn tdk menambah account (JANGAN klik menu pull down : add 1 account email. Sebab kita memanfaatkan NetSol hanya utk mengetahui nomor extrapolate tsb masih berlaku atau tidak), ikuti prosedur selanjutnya, sampai pada sesion pemasukan nomor tadi. Ulangi pengisian nomor apabila ditolak, gunakan nomor lainnya Anda dpt mengunjungi toko - toko yg ada pada website ini, yg sebagian besar telah kami coba. Dan jgn khawatir, keterangan disamping tokonya adalah pengalaman kami sebenarnya. Masalah sedikit banyaknya yg sudah mengorder di toko tersebut, kami tdk jamin 100%, namun perlu diketahui bhw situs ini tadinya situs pribadi. Jadi sebelum publikasi, hanya CardingHost yg mengorder, dan barang yg diorder kuantitasnya minimal sekali, namun rutin (lihat pada halaman 1 daftar online shop, www.timeclub.com yg berkali-kali mengirim barang dlm kurun waktu 1 tahun terakhir ini)Anda dpt mengorder barang senilai LEBIH DARI US$ 1000 dgn menggunakan trick : *Gunakan identitas palsu pada saat mengambil barang di kantor pos atau jasa pengiriman lainnya (….dgn memalsukan KTM/Kartu Tanda Mahasiswa biasanya lebih mudah, dan foto yg tampak di KTM palsu tadi harus sesuai dgn wajah si "X" yg mengambil barang tsb, di kantor pos atau jasa pengiriman lain). Sedangkan namanya, tetap nama si "X", hanya alamat di kartu identitas yang kita palsukan. Jika ditanya kenapa alamatnya berbeda, alasannya : "….itu alamat lama, dan saya sudah pindah rumah/kost". Apabila nama si "X" (pengambil barang) berbeda dengan nama yang dikirimi barang (hasil dari order), biasanyapihak kantor pos atau jasa pengiriman lainnya akan meminta surat kuasaAnda dpt mengorder barang senilai US$ 500 dgn menggunakan trick : (bisa juga menggunakan trick diatas) *Bisa menggunakan nama dan alamat asli, karena order barangsenilai US$ 500 masih tergolong rendah, atau gunakan alamat Warung Internet (Warnet) tempat anda biasa mengakses (tentunya bekerja sama dengan si penjaga Warnet tsb.)Anda dpt mengorder barang kurang dari US$ 200 dgn aman apabila nomor tersebut bukan milik orang di Indonesia Apabila anda menggunakan nomor extrapolate yg sudah digunakan pada saat proses validasi di Network Solutions, berarti nomor tersebut telah dicharge sebesar yg anda masukkan tadi, makanya buat serendah - rendahnya dlm membuat domain tadi, misalnya .org (..sekitar US$ 60). So, kalo udah gitu, utk mengetahui besarnya biaya charge dari nomor tsb tinggal jumlahkan aja harga barang yg diorder dengan biaya yg udah dicharge di NetSoltadi. Bila harga barang yg diorder senilai US$ 45, berarti nomor extrapolate yg kita gunakan tsb sudah dicharge sebesar US$ 105 Pada saat proses order (shopping), pengisian data Nama, Alamat dan lainnya milik kita (pembeli), harus sama dengan alamat yg akan dikirimi barang. Misalnya, si "X"mengorder barang, maka pengisian Billing Address (alamat faktur si pemesan) dan Shipping Address (alamat tujuan pengiriman barang) harus sama. Jika dlm billing addressyg memesan barang atas nama "X", maka pengisian nama pada shipping address harus nama si "X" tadi Jika anda tinggal di Propinsi D.I. Yogyakarta, sebaiknya alamat pengiriman barang jgn dikirim ke Kota Gudeg tsb. Karena apabila anda tidak ada kongkalikong dengan pihak kantorpos atau jasa pengiriman lainnya, jgn pernah mengharap barang akan ating. Apa lagiuntuk barang - barang yg tergolong 'wah', namun jika majalah dan CD serta sejenisnya, kemungkinan besar masih bisa. Sebagai masukan, Yogyakarta menduduki peringkat ke-1dlm event kegiatan carding di Asia, sementara Indonesia sendiri menduduki peringkat III dunia masih dlm event kegiatan carding. Bahkan dalam waktu dekat, Indonesia mungkin bisa meraih peringkat I di dunia Besarnya biaya penebusan dpt bervariasi, tergantung dari (pajak) barang yg kita order (biasanya mulai dari Rp 3000,- sampai lebih dari Rp 100.000,-). Atau ada juga barang yg dikirim langsung ke alamat tujuan. Jangan takut dulu bila anda disuruh menebus dgn biaya tinggi, karena kemungkinan besar barang yg dikirim itu nilainya lebih dari biaya penebusan Dalam pengisian alamat email (milik kita) utk jalur konfirmasi dari pihak online shop, sebaiknya gunakan alamat 'email bayar'. Karena, selain tidak ada banner (menghematwaktu loading), ada sedikit nilai tambah di mata pihak online shop yg kita order barangnyaTidak semua online shop yg ada menggunakan VeriSign di websitenya aman dan ketat dalam proses validasi kepemilikan kartu kredit, jadi jangan patah semangat dulu. Kecuali, pihak online shop melibatkan pihak Pay Pal (pihak ketiga sbg perantara yg menangani system pembayaran), itu pun masih bisa kita akali. Caranya, manfaatkan account milik orang bule juga di Pay Pal, lalu gunakan saja dgn percaya diri penuh, seolah - olah kita yg punya account tsb Jika anda shopping di online shop selain yg berbahasa Inggris, sebaiknya diperhatikanmetode pembayarannya/ payment methode (kecuali anda menguasai bahasa di negara online shop tsb). Karena jika anda tidak teliti, bisa - bisa anda memilih metode pembayaran cash on delivery (pembayaran dilakukan di alamat tujuan). Tapi, bila metode seperti itu yg anda pilih, maka biasanya pihak online shop akan menanyakan (mengirim email konfirmasi) lagi, "….apakah barang tersebut benar - benar mau dikirim ?" Solusinya : anda reply emailnya, dan katakan anda tidak jadi memesan, karena besok anda harus berangkat ke Singapura atau Hongkong, etc. untuk urusan kantor Bila anda mendapat email konfirmasi dari pihak online shop berupa ancaman (..beberapa waktu setelah anda melakukan order), yg mengatakan mereka akan mengadukan perbuatan anda ke federasi/organisasi internasional yg menangani penipuan (fraud) kartukredit dan akan mengenakan denda sebesar US$ 1000 atas perbuatan anda, jangan takut dulu. Karena itu hanya geretak si customer service online shop aja. Sebab kemungkinan besar, pihak online shop tsb sudah pernah terkena biaya recharge (tagihan balik, alias menggantibiaya produksi kepada si pemilik nomor kartu kredit yg asli). Nah, cuekin aja deh solusinya,masih bejibun online shop yang lain Jika anda dikirimi email konfirmasi dari pihak online shop berupa email kosong, namun ada file berekstensi .exe yg disertakan di attachment, lebih baik jangan didownload/dieksekusi file tadi. Apalagi jika anda yg mengakses Internet dari rumah (bukan di tempat umum), karena kemungkinan besar file tersebut mengandung Virus. Bila yang mengakses dari tempat umum (misalnya Warnet) dan sudah terlanjur mendownload/mengeksekusi file tersebut, sebaiknya anda berhenti mengakses. Dan pindahlah ke komputer client lainnya, atau bila ingin lebih fresh, pindah ke Warnet lain. Sedangkan jika andamengakses Internet dari rumah, untuk menjaga kemungkinan dari bahaya Trojan, anda bisamenginstall ulang sistemoperasi pd komputer anda (dgn asumsi, anda harus menghapus bersih folder sistemoperasi anda tersebut sebelum reinstall), dengan sistemoperasi yg masih fresh Catat semua barang yg anda order, dan dikirim atas nama siapa, jgn lupa catat juga tanggalnya. Sebab banyak juga online shop yg tdk mengirimkan email konfirmasi ketika barang akan dikirim. Atau bahkan tidak mengirimkan email konfirmasi kepada kita, saat setelah melakukan order (email konfirmasi biasa, setelah kita order). Gunanya, apabila ada order yg berhasil dikirim, dan atas nama si "X", kita bisa memperkirakan barang apa yg datang, dgn melihat catatan tadi, bhw si "X" memesan barang a, b, atau c (jadi ada nilai kemungkinannya) Jika anda disebut sebagai thief, frauder, etc., pada email konfirmasi dari online shop, cuekin aja, jangan dibalas, karena masih banyak online shop lainnya Kesabaran, ketelitian, dan keuletan merupakan modal dasar yg hrs anda miliki. Hilangkan sifat takabur, karena hanya akan mendatangkan kehancuran. Siapkan percayadiri sepenuhnya, seakan - akan kita si pemilik nomor/account (hal ini sangat baik dalam pembentukan mental carder) Kalo ada waktu, cobalah stand by di channel #indocarder atau anda bisa bergabungpada Forum Diskusi Carder Indonesia di website kami. Jika memiliki kendala atau masukan utk dibahas bersama dengan carder lainnya, guna mengetahui situasi yg sedang terjadi di dunia carding Indonesia Pelajari teknik hacking/cracking step by stepJangan lupa berdoa kepada Tuhan YME, sesuai dgn agama dan kepercayaan anda. Semoga kita semua dalam lindungan-Nya. Amin….Maaf kami tidak menyertakan Tips dan Tricks utk auction, sebab saya yakin rekan - rekan sudah mendapatkan nya dari referensi di tempat lain.

Permanent Method to Crack WGA and Patch Windows XP (inc MCE) or 2003 as Genuine

There is a lot of cracks or patches or fixes that aims to bypass or skip Windows Genuine Advantage (WGA) validation process, or trick the WGA validation results to be always genuine. However, these workarounds do not address the fundamental issue of the problem - that’s the product CD key or volume license key (VLK) registered in your copy of Windows XP, Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) and Windows Server 2003 is invalid or has been blocked or banned by Microsoft. The following ultimate WGA Patcher Permanent Kit with cracks and procedures all-in-one package will convert and transform the pirated Windows operating system into genuine and legitimate OS when validate by Microsoft’s WGA, by changing the serial number, product key or VLK of the Windows with a valid CD key, and when necessary, apply patch.
1. Download (link removed due to complaint from Microsoft) or (download removed due to complaint from Microsoft) which contains Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder v1.51 (keyfinder.exe), Microsoft Genuine Advantage Diagnostics Tool 1.5.0717.0 (MGADiag.exe), wga-hosts-fix 0.1 (wga-fix.exe), and Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 VLK key generator (MSKey.exe or Windows XP Keygen.exe). 2. Extract the zip file. 3. Run the Windows XP/2003 key generator (MSKey.exe or Windows XP Keygen.exe). 4. In the key generator, under the Product Family, select “Windows XP Pro. VLK”, and click the “Generate” button to generate a valid and genuine serial key for Windows XP (choose Windows Server 2003 VLK for Windows 2003). 5. Note down the product key or serial that is generated (can leave the program opens). The idea is to get VLK key that yet to be blocked or unknown to Microsoft. 6. Execute Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder (keyfinder.exe). If you having problem with Keyfinder, you can use any other Windows key changer listed here, such as RockXP and KeyFinder Thing. 7. Once launched, Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder will display the existing Windows and Office product key in the system. Select “Microsoft Windows” tab (open by default), and click on Options menu, and then select “Change Windows Key”. 8. In the Change Microsoft Windows XP Key window, key in the product key or serial number generated from the keygen program in the boxes. 9. Click on Change button when done. 10. Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder will use Microsoft’s WMI script to change the product key of Windows XP. Follow on screen instruction to continue. 11. Run wga-fix.exe program. Click on Yes button on the ‘wga-host-fix 0.1 window’ to redirect WGA authorization and validation request to loopback address (127.0.0.1). Alternatively, open Command Prompt, and navigate to \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ directory, edit the Hosts file, and add in the following entry to the end of the file:127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com 12. Uninstall or delete any cracked or patched LegitControlCheck.dll, WgaTray.exe and WgaLogon.dll located in \Windows\System32 folder. You may also need to delete “Windows Genuine Advantage Validation Tool” located in C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files\ folder. 13. Go to Windows (Microsoft) Updates or Microsoft Download Center to download updates or applications in which require validation. Install WGA Validation Tool ActiveX when prompted. (Note: If you’re having problem to validate Windows with MGADiag.exe in later process, you still skip previous and this step first or apply the patched LegitCheckControl.dll again, which means leave the patch and crack intact, and only come back to delete any crack or patch, and install original WGA validation tool later. This especially true if you have LegitCheckControl.dll 1.5.723.1 with MGDIAG.exe 1.5.0717.0) 14. Run the Microsoft Microsoft Genuine Validation Diagnostic Tool (MGADiag.exe), and click on Continue button to proceed. 15. Click on OK when MGADiag finishes processing and displays your genuine status. The status should show GENUINE, and not NOT ACTIVATED. Step 6 - 10 can also be done without using any hacker tool, by using Activation Wizard following official tutorial from Microsoft on how to change the Volume Licensing product key on a computer that is running Windows XP SP1 and later versions of Windows XP detailed as below.1. Click Start, and then click Run. 2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK. 3. In the left pane, locate and then click the following registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\Current Version\WPAEvents 4. In the right pane, right-click OOBETimer, and then click Modify. 5. Change at least one digit of this value to deactivate Windows. 6. Click Start, and then click Run. 7. In the Open box, type the following command, and then click OK.%systemroot%\system32\oobe\msoobe.exe /a 8. Click Yes, I want to telephone a customer service representative to activate Windows, and then click Next. 9. Click Change Product key. 10. Type the new product key in the New key boxes, and then click Update. If you are returned to the previous window, click Remind me later, and then restart the computer. 11. Repeat steps 6 to verify that Windows is activated. You receive the following message:Windows is already activated. Click OK to exit. Shortcut to Genuine Windows without Any CrackUnable to download the crack? Or afraid that the cracks of keygen and key changer contains virus or trojan? You can simply add in the entry in step 11 (i.e. 127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com) into your Hosts file if VLK key of your Windows installation has PID within the range of -640 to -641 or any other volume license product key that is not blocked. You can try it anyway no matter what product key you used to see if it working with existing CD key without changing the key.Note: This shortcut by using wga-fix.exe or manually editing the Hosts file should works out of the box immediately on Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) 2005 and Windows XP Tablet PC Edition, and by luck on Windows XP Home, XP Professional and Windows 2003.1. Simply remove and delete the crack or patch that has been applied in \Windows\System32 (LegitCheckControl.dll, WgaLogon.dll, WgaTray.exe) or \Documents and Settings\All users\Application Data (sub-folders “Windows Genuine Advantage” and “Office Genuine Advantage”) 2. Go to Windows (Microsoft) Updates or Microsoft Download Center to access Windows updates or download applications that require validation. Install WGA Validation Tool ActiveX when prompted. 3. Add in the “127.0.0.1 mpa.one.microsoft.com” to the Hosts file located in \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\ folder. Or alternatively, just execute (download link removed due to complaint from Microsoft) contained in the WGA crack archive package. 4. Run MGADiag.exe to validate the Windows is genuine. After applying this trick or hack, Microsoft WGA Validation Tool will treat the Windows as genuine, as in you legally purchase and buy the Windows OS. Users can access to Windows Updates or Microsoft Updates, download WGA validation required software products from Microsoft Download Center such as as Windows Defender, WMP11, IE7, DirectX and etc, and also to install these programs with proper validation without any cracks. This hack or trick should works on Windows XP, Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE), and even Windows Server 2003, and users can pick any browsers they like, including IE6, IE7, Firefox, Netscape or web browser powerd by IE such as MSN Explorer or AOL Explorer.If you still having problem with this method, try out other WGA bypass methods.Disclaimer: This article is for educational and informational purpose only. If you’re having problem with your Windows validation, contact Microsoft.

Got to run and typre regeditHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\SessionManagerAt this point you may find two SessionManager entries, you want the one with MemoryManagement\PrefetchParameters and on the right hand side double click on Enable Prefetcher and change the value to 1 from 3.
Now reboot.That's it you should now have the same speed as Longhorn.

Speed Up Firefox, browse faster than ever before
This will give you more speed when browsing.1. Type about:config into the address bar and hit return.2. Alter the entries as follows (by double clicking each entry):Set network.http.max-connections to 48Set network.http.max-connections-per-server to 24Set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-proxy to 12Set network.http.max-persistent-connections-per-server to 6Set network.http.pipelining to trueSet network.http.proxy.pipelining to trueSet network.http.pipelining.maxrequests to 8. Any more and you may get banned from the site visited, as it may be viewed as DOS attack. Try a higher value say upto 32 but be prepared to lower the value if sites fail to load.3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New -> Integer.Name it nglayout.initialpaint.delay and set its value to 0.This value is the amount of time (in milliseconds) the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.If you're using a broadband connection you'll load pages 2-3 times faster now, even if a dial-up connection it will still be faster than before.

Although you don't really need to come out of DOS for the next step I'm writing it this way to avoid confussion.Go to start, then run and again type cmd and press enter, this time type(without the punctuation marks)ipconfig/flushdns and press enter, it's possible you may get at this point a request to go into the internet, say yes to this and it will come back and tell you it is clear.Reboot your system and away you go with a faster and cleaner mean machine.
