Playstation 3 Laser Repair

If your disk isn’t being read by your PS3, more than likely you’re experiencing laser failure issues. This one of a few common problems faced by the PlayStation 3 consoles. The laser can be replaced quickly and be back to working condition in no time.

I often get the question “why can my PS3 read my old games and play downloaded games just fine, but not my new PS3 games or blue ray dvds?” This is a very common question and the reason is there are two lasers in your ps3. One is a blue laser, and the other is red, and both read different things.

What happens in many cases is one of the two will start to go bad. Meaning the ray from the laser will begin to emit less and less over time, until it gets to the point where it is no longer affective. In the example I gave above, this is when the blue laser which reads the blue ray dvds and the new ps3 games begins to fail and the red laser is working perfectly.

Don’t worry, all is not lost. PS3 laser failure is a common issue and a replacement usually cost somewhere in the area of $120.00 to $140.00 dollars. Not bad considering the alternatives of buying a new PS3 which can be well over 200.00. Not to mention the new PS3 slick is missing allot of what the original PS3 has. Also if you choose to send your unit back to Sony, you can expect you’re going to lose all of your data when Sony sends you a refurbished unit in about six weeks and it costing you about 100.00 dollars for shipping. All of that is assuming you’re still under warranty with your unit.

If getting your PlayStation 3 laser repaired is an option your interested in, Clicking here will give you and excellent option in getting you unit repaired at a great price, with an excellent warranty on your replaced parts all while keeping the data you have on your unit.…

Sydney Technology Industry With HP Links Lifts Workers Rights

A computer packing company in New South Wales, that was informing employees only the night before whether they had work for the next day and shift time, has agreed that permanent employment for it’s employees should be offered and that the state of the working factory should be lifted to with in industry and OH&S guidelines.
The company is Foxteq factory in Rydalmere which was outed last year as an extremely poor employer history that gave little notice to workers of when or if they would have work. Most of the workers are from disadvantaged backgrounds and had little choice but to put up with this de-facto arrangement.
The labour hiring to the company is performed by an external labour sourcing agency and has sourced almost, if not the whole, work force at the factory as casual employees. The main function of the factory is to prepare for delivery a number of Hewlett-Packard branded computer systems, who are destined for such high profile clients as Department of Defence, NSW Fire Brigades and also various banks to name a few.
Sources from some of the workers mention that some messages were not received until even after 8pm before the next day’s shift started. Not knowing how long their shifts were to be, some workers attended and only worked for 4 hours or under, then leaving them in a state of limbo about when, if, and how long they would be needed for the next day.
In a positive change though the new labour hire company Resco, having being contracted by Foxteq have negotiated an agreement with the Australian Manufacturing Workers Union to the benefit of the employees in the factories workforce. The workers now have options to choose from such as permanent full-time or part time status, and improvement to working conditions at the factory, and also union delegates which employees can elect themselves.
It is believed some high level pressuring direct from HP assisted with the change. Particularly damaging to HP were revelations that Foxteq is the sister company of manufacturer Foxconn which has been chided before for it’s reported poor employee relations though in roads to improvements have been laid.…

Three Innovative Kitchen Gadgets

The days of peeling your vegetables with a knife have been over since we have been blessed with the peeler. The days of fine chopping your food by hand have been over since we have been graced with the presence of the food processor. Needless to say, innovations in the kitchen have allowed people around the globe to save time preparing their favorite meals.

Each day more and more useful cooking tools are being invented. Some of them save us time, some of them save money, and all of them can make it much for fun to cook all of your favorite things. One example is the Cravendale Milk Jug. This device is capable of measuring the milk that it holds and deciding if it is still good, fresh milk or if it has gone sour. This is a great way to make sure that you don’t drink sour milk and that you don’t waste your money on throwing milk away that you could have drank and been perfectly fine!

Another example of a neat innovation is an adjustable rolling pin. They have taken the guessing out of rolling bases when it comes to pies and pizza. It has a set of removable discs that not only make the rolling pin adjustable, but also make it easy to store. It also has 3 raised surfaces so you are able to measure thickness of whatever it is that you are rolling. This takes away the guesswork cooks everywhere are faced with when they have to roll out large items – and can also gauge the thickness. What a neat kitchen gadget!

We all know the frustration you get when you can’t find the utensil that you are looking for. It seems that they are always around when you do not need them and disappear when you do! This has been solved by the Click n’ Cook. It has a stainless steel base with 5 spatulas that click into the base. The spatulas vary from slotted to flat to extra wide. All of them are dishwasher safe and can be clicked right back into the Click n’ Cook after you’re finished.

These are just some examples of how much time and money can be saved by using kitchen gadgets. Through innovation and creativity, new gadgets are being designed to help us be more efficient in the kitchen.…

Indoor TV Aerial

Just moved house? Can’t get a good main TV signal in your home? Is your wall adapter broken? Are you a student moving into halls of residence? These are all small predicaments one can face in every day life. If you’re a TV lover, they can be pretty big problems. However there’s a solution to the problem: an indoor TV aerial.
Indoor TV aerials are excellent products to own because they can be used in a variety of different places and produce great signal qualities for stand alone electronics. All they require are a power source and a TV to work with!
Gone are the days of very expensive aerials that produce poor signals and are frequently distorted and interrupted. Nowadays you can pick up high quality digital signals, and run freeview with total ease. You can even pick up high definition (HD) quality signal and experience the power of high definition on your HDTV.
Who needs to use an indoor TV aerial?
There are many different individuals who could benefit from using an indoor TV aerial. Generally they fall into the following groups:
-Students
-Flat/Apartment Dwellers
-Caravan/Mobile Home Owners
-Frequent Movers
-Individuals with old TVs
The fact you can position an indoor TV aerial anywhere in the room means you’ll be able to pick up an excellent signal. You don’t have to worry about getting a cable guy in to sort out a wall socket connection for your TV; just plug the indoor aerial into the mains power and then into the back of your TV and you’re away.
Types of Indoor TV Aerial
There are a variety of different types of aerial on the market, some excellent, some not so good. They generally fall into these categories:
-Antenna Aerials
These are the standard type of TV aerial, and produce very good signals. By extending the antenna fully and positioning the middle pivot towards an open area, you’ll be able to watch TV without any signal interference. If someone in your neighbourhood has a satellite dish on the side of their house, point this aerial at it and you’ll have a mains quality signal! Models with an amplifier are the best to buy.
-Pivot Aerials
They are a very good type of aerial to buy because it does not require fiddling and setting up like an antenna aerial. Simply connect it to the mains and your TV and point the pivot out the window. They generally pick up good quality signals, but can sometimes be interfered with when weather is poor. Once again, models with an amplifier produce the best signal qualities.
-1 Point Aerials
These aerials, while producing a reasonable signal, are generally more for aesthetics. You can place them in a room and they will not look that much out of place, compared with an antenna aerial. Despite this, even models with amplifiers will struggle to perform, as there are no parts to point into strong signal areas such as with the other models. Although cheaper than other models, you’ll feel the frustration when trying to watch an enjoyable programme and don’t like being interrupted.
Buying an Indoor TV Aerial
Indoor TV aerials can be found in most electronics shops on the high street. However you will generally pay more in such a store than you would online. Some of the best deals can be found online.
Be sure to research an aerial before you buy one. Different models and makes of aerials will pick up signals in different qualities. If you are planning to watch freeview on your TV, it is wise to check your coverage before you purchase an aerial.
The best tip to remember when buying an indoor TV aerial is to ask if you are unsure!
If you enjoy watching your TV, but are unable to pick up a mains TV signal, consider buying an indoor TV aerial today. You’ll pick up a great signal and will be able to watch TV anywhere. So sit back, relax, and turn on your favourite programme!…

PlayStation 3 Repair Solutions

If you have a PlayStation 3, congratulations, as it is one of the most trouble free gaming systems currently on the market. In general, a PS3 runs far more smoothly than similar gaming consoles (such as the Xbox 360) and has far fewer issues that will need repairs. However, no technology is perfect, and if your PlayStation 3 does start malfunctioning, there are several different ways to go about fixing it.

To start, if your PS3 is still under warranty, you should certainly contact Sony about any problems and have it send it out for repairs if the problem appears serious. However, if your PS3 is not under warranty, sending it out for repairs can be a costly as well as a time consuming, solution. You should expect to pay well over $100 for the most basic PS3 repairs, and if a hard drive or other replacement parts are necessary, you will end up paying much, much more.

Fortunately, there are PS3 home repair guides that can teach you how to make all the basic PS3 repairs in the comfort of your own home quickly, and often with little added expense other than the repair manual itself. Some of the most common problems with the PlayStation 3 are issues with flashing yellow or red lights, problems with the blu-ray disc player, freezing of the game console and “no display” issues. If you are playing PS2 games on your PS3, there are additional compatibility problems that may arise and can often be fixed by updating your firmware. Additional problems can also result from internet connectivity issues.

Fortunately PS3 repair guides such as PS3 Repaired can help you fix all these problems quickly at home and get back to your gaming enjoyment quickly.…

Industrial Automation Technology

Industrial Automation Technology refers to the control of industrial machinery and its various processes thus reducing the need for human intervention. Industrial automation technology makes use of various control systems such as programmable logic control, industrial control and numerical control systems. These applications are usually used in concert with information technology systems such as computer technologies that control the automated machinery.
Automation is a step up from mechanization because it greatly reduces the human mental and sensory requirements, whereas mechanization assists human operators with the muscular requirements for the work.
Industrial automation plays a large part in the global economy, and engineers work hard to combine mathematical tools with automated devices to produce better and more complex systems for the expanding applications and range of human activities.
The automation of machines and other technologies has a big impact on a wide range of industries, for example; telephone operators have been mostly replaced by automated switchboards and answering machines, and automated teller machines now make money transactions much easier and help cut down visits to the bank.
Industrial automation is used in a wide range of industries for many different types of application and some of these can include:
o Mechanical engineering
o Industrial controls
o Electronic engineering
o Integrated circuit design
o Motion control and fluid control
o Data acquisition software
There are many advantages and disadvantages in the scope of industrialization and some of these advantages are:
o Economy improvement
o Can be used to carry out dangerous tasks
o Can replace tedious human tasks
Some of the main disadvantages are:
o Automation has its limits and at present is unable to replace all human tasks
o Development costs can be unpredictable
o Initial set-up costs are usually high
It is thought by some critics that automation will lead to higher unemployment, yet others argue that the opposite is true and that automation has led to higher employment.…

A Great Technology – Keyless Ignition Systems Have Their Dangers

The psychology behind the problems with keyless ignitions lie in the deep-seated behaviors we have with our cars. We rely on our habits and everyday motions for entering our cars, starting the engine, fastening the seatbelt or adjusting the mirrors. With keyless entry and keyless ignition some of our old habits don’t apply any more. Those long-standing habits are causing some people problems with their vehicles. Problems that are on the rise as more car manufactures switch to this type of technology. The NTHSA is looking into ways to curb the problem and provide a stronger measure of safety.
A keyless ignition system is a device that is carried by the driver to gain access to the vehicle and the ability to start the engine. Instead of a key a small chip inside the key fob sends a signal to the car’s computer allowing access to the starting system without physical contact. The driver can then push a button or turn a switch to start the vehicle. Keyless ignitions are becoming mainstream today as car manufacturers are seeing the potential for adding them into their fleet.
Recent incidents in the news, resulting in death or injuries have focused more attention on the problems drivers are having with these new systems.
In Florida the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s office is investigating last week’s carbon monoxide poisoning deaths of a couple suspected to have succumbed to a build-up of carbon monoxide emanating from their Mercedes with a keyless ignition, parked in an attached garage. The sheriff’s office declined comment pending the outcome of their investigation.
This week Miami-Dade Police and fire rescue responded to a home in Miami Lakes. According to neighbors, a car was left running in the garage of the home, and two elderly women were inside the home. When police arrived on the scene, a woman was found dead from carbon monoxide that apparently had leaked from the garage into the home. The other woman was taken to St. Mary’s Medical Center in Palm Beach because of it has a special hyperbaric chamber used to treat victims of carbon monoxide poisoning. She is in stable conditions.
It is still unclear as to whether this most recent incident was a keyless ignition problem. The cause of this accident is still under investigation, the age and model of the vehicle have not been released, however it points out the dangers that can occur from simply forgetting to turn off the ignition.
In addition to carbon monoxide poisoning, keyless systems also create the problem of rollways. Under current Federal Manufacturer Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS 114) a driver cannot remove a vehicle’s key without the engine off and the vehicle’s automatic transmission in the Park position. With many keyless entry systems, this protection has all but vanished. While some warn the drivers that the key has been removed and the transmission is not in Park, the warnings have varied effectiveness, leading to complaints to NHTSA like this one involving a 2006 Audi A6:
During the extensive investigation conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) they received many personal accounts of accidents or injuries that were experience by people who possessed this technology.
One driver had the vehicle knock him down and then catch hold of his foot and then dragging him over a curb. The vehicle ended up on his left foot trapping him. Several men came to assist and lifted the car off. Although he had shut the engine down, he had failed to place the transmission in park before exiting the vehicle.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has purposed new standards for the operation and controls used to stop the engine in systems that do not require a physical key. They are proposing an audible warning be given to any driver who attempts to shut down the propulsion system without first moving the gear selection control to the park position. The alarm would also sound if a driver attempts to exits a vehicle without first turning off the engine system.
The proposed change would also standardize the amount of time a driver would have to hold down the button in order to start and stop the engine. It would require that the switch that turns off the vehicle work whether the vehicle is running at speed or not.
Currently in order to shut down the engine at speeds the driver is required to hold down the button for three seconds, for an emergency procedure is something most drivers are less than accomplished in. Indeed, many owners are not even aware of this hold the button requirement.
The proposed rule seeks to change this control activation for all stops regardless of whether the vehicle is moving or stationary.
The proposed rule change would implement the creation of a …

About Biometric Technology

In fact, biometric technology has been known since ancient Egyptian times. The recordings of countenance and size of recognizable body parts are normally used to ensure that the person is the truly him/ her.
It was the beginning of the system security work-flow. Logically, no one has access without being trusted. Access control technology tries to automate the process of answering two basic questions before offering various types of access.
The first question is “Who are you?” and the second question is “Are you really as you say?” The first question represents the function of identification and the second question represents the function of verification (proof).
The common approach to gain the access is through the use of signs and assumptions that the owner of the sign and the proof identity will match. This kind of model is called as single-factor security. For example is the key of house or password.
This kind of approach has a risk if the sign is lost or stolen. Once the key falls into the hands of others, they could freely enter the house. It also happens with a password. It will not be a secret anymore and someone else can use it.
To overcome this problem, two-factor security is made. This method is more resilient to risks. The most common example is the card of automated teller machine (ATM). With a card that shows who you are and PIN which is the mark you as the rightful owner of the card, you can access your bank account. The weakness of this security is that both signs should be at the requester of access. Thus, the card only or PIN only will not work.
Problems arise when you are forgetful person. Also, you often do not realize that the PIN is very personal thing. Basically, family or close friends may not know. The more sophisticated crime is to steal the PIN data from the source directly.…
