How to Write Secret Messages

If you are active in forum or bulletin boards, then this should be a fun thing to do while posting – hide your message! OK, this is pretty simple actually. There are two ways in doing this.

1. Use emoticons

Sounds silly but it works!

Add an emoticon to the post (make sure HTML mode is on) changing the title=”” to whatever you want the secret words to read (remember to enclose those words in “quotations”). Then uncheck the HTML box, finish your post and there you go! Mouseover the emoticon to view the message.

2. Text color same as background

This is very, very simple. Just change the text color of your post to match the background color. To view it, just highlight it.

This is a secret message for you!

30 Craziest Lawsuits in History

1. Sued Michael Jordan, because he looks like him.

Allen Heckard sued Michael Jordan and Phil Knight on July 2006. Heckard claims he has suffered emotional trauma because he looks like Michael Jordan. Heckard has filed his look-alike case at the Washington County Court in Oregon and with a $832 million dollar head. Allen Heckard believes his life has been rough since people continually think he is Michael Jordan. Heckard says when he plays basketball, people are constantly telling him he plays like Michael Jordan and this has been difficult for him. Heckard is only six feet tall, so obviously those who assume he is Michael Jordan have little regard for height. Heckard even wears Air Jordan shoes, he says that they’re the most comfortable.

2. Sued after getting stuck on the house he was robbing.

In October 1998, A Terrence Dickson of Bristol Pennsylvania was exiting a house he finished robbing by way of the garage. He was not able to get the garage door to go up, because the automatic door opener was malfunctioning. He couldn’t re- enter the house because the door connecting the house and garage locked when he pulled it shut. The family was on vacation, so Mr. Dickson found himself locked in the garage for eight days. He subsisted on a case of Pepsi he found, and a large bag of dry dog food. This upset Mr. Dickson, so he sued the homeowner’s insurance claiming the situation caused him undue mental anguish. The jury agreed to the tune of half a million dollars and change.

3. Sued the school for being called “GAY”.

A small-town teenager who was bullied for years by classmates because they believed he was gay was awarded $440,000 in a settlement. The settlement ended a longrunning battle between the Tonganoxie School District and 18-year-old Dylan Theno, who sued in May 2004 claiming he was harassed with homophobic slurs from seventh grade until he quit school his junior year. Theno, who testified that he isn’t gay, recently earned his GED and attends a vocational technical school in Kansas City.

20 Things You Didn’t Know About Rats

  1. The brown rat (Rattus norvegicus), also known as the Norway rat, and its more acrobatic Asian cousin, the black rat (Rattus rattus), enjoy a nearly worldwide distribution, thanks to their skill at stowing away on ships.
  2. In the mid-19th century, Jack Black, the rat catcher for Queen Victoria, found several color variations of the brown rat and domesticated those he caught. Eager owners of his pet rats included the Queen herself, and it’s rumored—disturbingly—Beatrix Potter.
  3. Rats’ front teeth grow 4½ to 5½ inches each year. Rats wear them down by continuously gnawing on everything around them, including cement, brick, wood, lead pipes, and other small animals.
  4. A female rat can mate as many as 500 times with various males during a six-hour period of receptivity—a state she experiences about 15 times per year. Thus a pair of brown rats can produce as many as 2,000 descendants in a year if left to breed unchecked. (A rat matures sexually at age three to four months.) An average rat’s life span is two to three years.
  5. A rat can tread water for three days and survive being flushed down the toilet. (And it can return to the building via the same route.) There is approximately one rat per person in the United States.
  6. Not all rats live close to humans. Of the 56 known species, many live in remote habitats like marshlands and rain forests, and some are endangered. How sad!

Dewdrop-photo

This image might look out-of-this-world, but it was taken from inside a darkened warehouse filled with rubble. Captured using a magnifying lens, the photo shows the effect of outside light on droplets of dew in a windowpane.

How to Make A Screenshot Tutorial

OK, believe me or not, at least 60% of computer users out there don’t know how to make a screenshot. I’ve received a few emails regarding this matter. So, this particular post will focus just on that. This simple tutorial will guide you by just using a few keyboard shortcuts and Microsoft Paint, additional download applications are not needed at all.

To capture the whole screen:

Keyboard shortcut: Print Screen/Print Scr/Print Scrn

Just simply hit the “Print Screen” key. Done!

To capture an active window:

Keyboard shortcut: Alt + Print Screen/Print Scr/Print Scrn

Now, instead of capturing the whole screen, you want to get a shot of the active window, just use the “Alt + Print Screen”.

How to save your screenshot?
