    Back To The 70's

    you could include Jerry Garcia of the GRATEFUL DEAD as one of those guitarists now playing in the Great Beyond. Pero nakakapanghinayang talaga sina Stevie Ray Vaughn, Jimi Hendrix and Jaco Pastorius (bass nga lang) - struck down while in their prime - mga bata pa.

     

    Keith Moon was also one of those great drummers along with Bonham who passed away. Btw, malapit nang maubos ang THE WHO - sina Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey na lang ang natitira. John Enthwistle passed away - was it last year?

    I was in Vegas in 2002 when the Who were going to have a concert there then cancelled when John Entwhislte died. Sayang...

     

    The opening themes of the hit TV shows of CSI and CSI Miami feature songs by the who,"Who are You" and "Won't get Fooled Again".

     

    Some other great rock acts from the 70s - Journey (Anyway you want it) Boston (More than a Feeling), Thin Lizzy (The Boys are Back in Town) and Black Sabbath (I love all the songs from Black Sabbath Vol. 4).

     

    Somehow, the newer rock acts that try to capture the rawness of the 70's rock acts don't quite get it...

    Yup, you have to adjust the Front side bus frequency in your bios in order to overclock your proc.

     

     

    But again if you plan to overclock you got to have, sturdy rams, dont worry about your proc they oftentimes overclock easy.

    Hey Guys!

     

    Thanks for the the very informative info on overclocking. You guys have a gift of explaining this stuff in easily understandable. Looks to me that with the side effects overclokcing may not be worth it. Perhaps I'll just add more memory since I haven't maxed out yet.

     

    Cheers!

    How Can I Quit Smoking?

    in Health and Fitness

    Posted

    Quitting the habit is difficult but with determination and a proper attitude. As a hardcore smoker (2 packs or more a day) who started the habitin highschool. I tried nine times to quit before I finally kicked the habit.

     

    For most (but not all) smokers, smoking is really an addicition to nicotine. Mind you, it is not a psychological but a physical addiction which means you have to get your nicotine "kick" or else you get irritable and suffer from craving or withdrawal symptoms (lack of sleep, restlessness etc.). This is how the nicotine patch or nicorette gum is suppose to work-By feeding the nicotine addiction.

     

    What worked for me was simply to quit cold turkey. The irony of this is to quit a physical addition, you must be mentally ready to do so. In other words, unless you are really convinces that smoking is bad for you, is unglamorous, is a filthy habit, make your breath stink, yellows your teeth, contributes to impotence and/or literally shrinks your penis, is a cause of cancer and a host of other diseases, then quiting cold turkey just isn't going to work.....

    I know its somewhat late but thanks for your help.One last question. Based on your respective replies it seems that overclocking involves adjusting the values in the BIOS. Is my impression correct or is there more to it....

    I consider myself to be reasonably well informed/knowledgeable about computers but am fascinated by the concept of overclocking the processor but lack information on this. Can anyone explain in layman's terms how this is accomplished? What tools will I need? What are the risks involved if I overclock.

     

    FYI, I have a P4 2.8 ghz HT 556 DDR RAM running windows XP.

     

    Thanks in advance!

    What's Your Current Pc System ?

    On the Games Master June 2004 edition the IDEAL system requirement for Far Cry is a P4/Athlon 3Ghz, 1GB RAM, Geforce FX 5950/Radeon 9800 Pro. Yes, adding more memory (1 gigabyte) would make a big difference. :)

    Thanks for the tip Dude. I guess that's why they call the game "Far Cry" since the system specs are usually a far cry from the ideal :D .

    Got it bro, cheap imitation of famous Marilyn Monroe shot.

    Quote from that commercial:

     

    "An naw ar laytess... ang electric pan na may short wayd wadio (she meant "short wave radio) na makaka peek ap ng maga brodkas mula sa ibang bansa.

    "

     

    Mwahahahaha!

    Just upgraded my system a month ago from an Athlon XP 1500. Since I would be changing the motherboard anyway if I upgraded to a faster Athlon chip, I decided to give Intel a try once more, The specs are:

     

    Pentium 4 2.8c HT

    Kingston 526mb ddr 400 ram

    ECS Motherboard on intel 865 chipset 800mhz fsb

    geforce fx5600 video card

    80gb HDD

    SB Audigy 2 Sound Card

    Altec Lansing 5.1 speakers

    17 inch monitor

    asus cdrw

    sony dvd rom

     

    You would think that with this system, all would be well with my gaming but guess what? It can only play Far Cry at its lowest video settings without experiencing chopiness. To all the techies out there, do you think adding more memory would make a difference?

    I danced the swing with Pia Moran once in Wherelse and she wasn't wearing undies so no lifting. Sayang, it could have been quite a show.

    He he he cool. In those days, when boob jobs were just making their debut, she was one of the first celebrities to have it as far as I remember. In those days, boob jobs looked less "natural" than they do now and tended to make tits jiggle less or not at all.

     

    Does anyone remember the infamous Pia Moran standard electric fan commercial...?

    I'm not quite sure but I believe she was Pia Moran(?)

     

    There was similar incident during FAMAS Award night involving Didith Reyes. During her song number, the strap of her gown snapped thereby exposing her boobs to the delight of nationwide viewers. The song number was abruptly cut by a commercial.

    I don't think it was Pia Moran. I mammary, este, memory, serves me right, the girl's name was Ellen Esguerra, a starlet in the late 70's to early 80's. I heard she passed away just last year.

     

    I think she was part of the body language dance craze that started at around that time. Yvonne Salcedo, Pia Moran and Frida Fonda started their careers this way.
