It’s not voodoo – its a simple combination of equivalent English characters (where a p is an upside down d and vice versa), and Latin Unicode characters. Keep in mind, the upside down text will probably not work in many chat programs, since the chat programs don’t recognize the Unicode characters, but it can be fun for blogs and social network updates. For the curious geeks, if you’re wondering how they do it, it’s a simple string replacement javascript. 01.var flipTable = { 02.a : '\u0250', 03.b : 'q', 04.c : '\u0254', 05.d : 'p', 06.e : '\u01DD', 07.f : '\u025F', 08.g : '\u0183', 09.h : '\u0265', 10.i : '\u0131', 11.j : '\u027E',
Create, Find, Share Podcasts! 55+ Extremely Useful Online Generators for Designers In 2008 when I launched my personal blog to share my experiences, I decided to call it Balkhis instead of using my full name (Syed Balkhi). As time passed on, I regretted that decision because it created a lot of confusion. People thought that my last name was Balkhis instead of Balkhi. I basically combined my last name with the first letter of my first name.I was @syedbalkhi across all social media platforms, so the brand wasn’t consistent.People didn’t know about my personal blog as much because they didn’t relate Balkhis with me. Well as I focus more on my personal brand in 2015, I made the crucial move of switching domain names. As you noticed with this change, I got a new site design. I didn’t want to spend too much time creating a custom theme, so I used my friend Michael Hyatt’s theme which you too can buy if you like: GetNoticed. I did customize it to give it a bit of personal touch. The main reason why I chose this theme is because of all the amazing functionality it comes with.
10 reasons why librarians should use Exalead. Back in September 2006 my colleague, the Librarian in Black wrote an excellent article entitled Ten Reasons Librarians Should Use Ask.com Instead of Google Given the recent news about Ask, I thought I'd revisit this idea only this time I'm going to focus on Exalead. My apologies in advance to Sarah for basing some of the following on her original work. 1. Exalead has excellent functionality when it comes to focusing down on a search. The 'narrow your search' option lets users limit/exclude terms, blogs, forum, multimedia, languages (and it gives you an indication which languages are important with respect to a search term). There's a directory function, at least 8 different ways to limit by file type (again with a percentage figure for the number of results you'll get) and a really good geographic location option which includes both countries and importantly entire regions. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

No Free Lunch for Ning Users; Still Plenty of Bargains Elsewhere The social networking platform Ning announced today that it was making some substantial changes to the company. The news, coming just one month after Jason Rosenthal replaced Gina Bianchini as CEO, was sour for both employees and for many users of the service. Ning will cut 70 jobs and will end free subscriptions to the site. Rosenthal writes in the press release, "We will phase out our free service. Existing free networks will have the opportunity to either convert to paying for premium services, or transition off of Ning." According to the release, paying subscribers account for 75% of the service's traffic. But the service has long been used by many small groups and organization, many of which are in a tail-spin over today's announcement.
7 Things You Should Know About Google Wave Google Wave is a web-based application that represents a rethinking of electronic communication. Users create online spaces called “waves,” which include multiple discrete messages and components that constitute a running, conversational document. Users access waves through the web, resulting in a model of communication in which rather than sending separate copies of multiple messages to different people, the content resides in a single space. Wave offers a compelling platform for personal learning environments because it provides a single location for collecting information from diverse sources while accommodating a variety of formats, and it makes interactive coursework a possibility for nontechnical students. The "7 Things You Should Know About..." series from the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI) provides concise information on emerging learning technologies.
Opetussuunnitelma ja tuntijako - Perusopetus Perusopetuksen järjestämistä ohjataan opetusta koskevan lainsäädännön, opetussuunnitelman valtakunnallisten perusteiden sekä paikallisen opetussuunnitelman avulla. Valtakunnallisia säädöksiä ovat perusopetuslaki (628/1998 ja perusopetusasetus (852/1998) sekä valtioneuvoston asetus perusopetuksen valtakunnallisista tavoitteista ja tuntijaosta (1435/2001, uusi asetus 422/2012). Ne sisältävät säännöksiä muun muassa opetuksen yleisistä tavoitteista, oppiaineista, opetuskielestä, opintosuoritusten arvioinnista, koulun työajoista ja muista opetuksen järjestämiseen liittyvistä periaatteista sekä oppilaan oikeuksista ja velvollisuuksista. Koulun toiminnan kannalta keskeinen opetusta ohjaava normi ovat Opetushallituksen päättämät perusopetuksen opetussuunnitelman perusteet. Paikallinen opetussuunnitelma laaditaan opetussuunnitelman perusteiden pohjalta. Paikallinen opetussuunnitelma on julkinen asiakirja, ja useimmilla kunnilla ja kouluilla on omat verkkosivut, joilta se on luettavissa.

Tagxedo - Tag Cloud with Styles How to install your motherboard chipset drivers AMD bought ATI in 2006. Before that both AMD and ATI made chipsets. After they became one company the naming got confusing. Now you can find the same chipset referred to by two names: the more common ATI name, and a completely different AMD name. For all but very old chipsets, AMD produces unified chipset drivers which support many chips in the same package. Very old AMD chipsets: AMD 750 or 8000 series If your chipset is AMD-751, AMD-761, or AMD-762 then you should try this page. The easiest way to update your chipset drivers is to install the "AMD Driver Pack" for your chipset. Motherboards made with both AMD 750 and AMD 8000 series chipsets often didn't use AMD's southbridge chips. Old AGP chipsets: IGP 320, IGP 330, IGP 340, 9000 IGP, 9100 IGP These AGP chipsets have two drivers to update: the GART driver for your northbridge, and the southbridge driver. Your best shot for finding the GART driver is to try this page. Chipsets without integrated graphics like AMD 770/790
