The new version Internet Explorer 7 has a problem in caching of the displayed specially if you are using some ajax applications. Even if you have use the meta tags that specifies no cache, the IE7 would ignore them.

<meta name="pragma" content="no-cache">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="-1">
<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache">

The above code does not work on IE7. You could force the browser to remove the cache by manually deleting it or by using the following code below in PHP:

// choose a date in the past
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
// set the last modified date to today
header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT");
// if the browser supports HTTP/1.1
header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate");
header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false);
// if the browser supports HTTP/1.0
header("Pragma: no-cache");

Another way is to add the meta tag code below in between your end body tag and your end html tags. It does not conform to the w3c standards, but it works. :D

</body>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="PRAGMA" content="NO-CACHE" />
</head>
</html>

GPS - Know Your Exact Position Anywhere In The World
By: Sharon Albright
GPS [global positioning system] is a worldwide radio-navigation system formed from the constellation of 24 satellites and their ground stations. It is a system mainly used to locate the user's position at a time. Although GPS was originally intended for military applications, but now it is mainly used in marine, location-based services and terrestrial navigation. GPS can work for 24 hours in any type of weather condition, irrespective of sun and rain. Working of GPS system GPS works in a wonderful way. The GPS satellite circles the earth twice a day in a precise orbit and transmits signal information to earth. GPS receivers take into this information and use "triangulation method" to calculate the user's exact location. The meaning of "triangulation" is receiving radio signals from a distance. Along with knowing the distance, you also need to know exactly the position of the satellites in space. This is done with the help of high orbits and carefully monitoring the instruments for locating the satellites. Finally you also need to correct any type of delays that the signal can experience as it has to travel for a long distance through the atmosphere.

After several weeks of listening to this song, i finally finished adding chords to the lyrics, anyway just done on my first try so there might be lots of errors. I beleive nobody has posted any lyrics to this song first other than my version, so there would be nothing to compare to. Please fell free to comment if you have found any mistakes on the lyrics to make it better.

Anyway its very hard to practice with your guitar without hearing the entire song, and most of the available mp3s on the net were just from the anime Bleach which is incomplete. You need to purchase the song in order for you to hear the entire lyrics. However, i have found an uploaded copy of song on the net. Look for the link a the end of this post.

Anyway, while adding the chords, i have watch so many of YUI's videos and the most weird thing is that she sounds a bit different, i dont know why, and on her video its seems like there wasn't any life at all, i really think its just a complete acting. I might be just speculating, but see for yourself. Here's the to the link to the video. Anyway, i still liked the song.

The Election buzz is here again. Individuals aspiring to take political seats are now busy doing massive campaigns through TV ads, flyers, banners, free shirts... and for the love of many, free BALUT calling it a sample BALUT with the politicians name written all over the egg shell. During elections, they the TRAPOS (traditional politicians) and newbies alike are alive announcing to the world their unwavering desire to serve. Some are good and have kept their word in one way or another.. but for most of them, they're gone into thin air as soon as they assume the office. Those were the type of politicians who never get the office back after their term is over. Some did run again, some got sick for sitting on their couches too long, some aged prematurely, some died.

Some may wonder where have all those cowboys gone. Just in case you're interested, here is a site with listings of Politicians featuring their past office, achievement, length of service and their life after the limelight. See if you can spot a familiar name... take George Lindemann for instance. Okay, he's a billionaire who supported those politicians, but look it up anyway.

This is a project inviting companies and individuals to lend, at no interest, one million dollars to provide houses and jobs to those without them and others struggling with poverty across the United States of America. To keep track and for referrence of those who joined, the funds raised, listings of benefactors and details of houses built will be updated and posted in public through The BenefactorProject website.

The list of benefactors include Pres. George H.W. Bush, Simon Cowell, Sen. Trent Lott, George Lindemann Jr., and other famous personalities.

This project is still continuing to expand with Americans reaching out to fellow Americans. Here's a quote from the person spearheading the project:

"I call it The Benefactor Project because no matter what your station in life we all can do something to help each other. With what we have, what we know or just how we can inspire or encourage. If you have a desire to help a fellow American here is my humble proposal offering what I have learned."

Welcome back, Commander

Those are the first words that would appear when playing the Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars demo. Downloaded it and i was amazed with its game details. I love the unit shadow and the new infantry that could fly, sorry i forgot its name. there's also a new race, bugs lots of them. heres a site that lists its GDI iconic units. So far, i am enjoying the demo, its only downside is that its pretty slow and i cant make the units to move a little faster.

anyway, its not yet out until March, however you can also preorder it from its website. if you want to try it out, you may download its torrent file. Downloading from fileplanet sucks, the queue is too long, i dont understand why should we pay just to download these free files. in the meantime try to check out more from its website
