6 advanced uses for USB sticks

Posted on April 6, 2011

With the onset of cloud based storage solutions, geeks everywhere are starting to collect large stores of USB flash drives, including promotional flash drives like those handed out by businesses and at trade shows. There are many uses for the flash drives you have laying around that will make them more than drawer filler. Any true power user will find the idea of reusing old technology to be fun and useful. Here is a list of six of the best projects you can do to make use of an aging USB stick:

1 – Install A Portable Operating System – There are several Linux distributions that fit perfectly on a USB flash drive. You can even go as far as installing Windows or OSX if you have sufficient space on your drive. The caveat here is that it makes the stick a one trick pony.

Aprons for all seasons

Posted on April 6, 2011

There are increasingly a whole host of aprons anyone can choose from, from the very traditional butcher’s stripe apron, which you see your local butcher wear up and down the country, to the more fun and wacky aprons, many of which are very cheeky.

In fact, aprons often reflect the personality of the wearer from the serious chef to the stylish housewife to the incompetent Dad at the barbeque to the cheeky chappy with the statue of David apron. Increasingly new designs are coming out so we asked ourselves the question – should there be a season for aprons. Which aprons reflect the different months and if you are going to be in fashion, what should your apron look like.

We have put together a short guide to what you should wear for each of the seasons, ranging from the bright, vibrant colors in the spring and summer, to the more natural and demur colors of autumn and winter. Of course, we have also tried to reflect some of the key events and a few embarrassing aprons too.

Saving money on repossessed vehicles

Posted on April 6, 2011

You can realize big savings by investing in a repossessed vehicle often sold at a pittance at auctions. If you cannot afford to make a new car purchase, opting for a repo car is a smart decision. With a bit of research and evaluation, you can acquire a great car for a really good price.

What are repossessed vehicles?

People who fail to meet car loan or hire purchase payments and conditions stand the risk of their vehicles being reclaimed by creditors. The vehicles are then sold by creditors at offline and online auctions.

Travel tips for the weary flier

Posted on April 5, 2011

There are many people that dislike flying. There are people who are afraid of flying. These people have phobias or have had some problem in the past, or perhaps are dealing with anxiety or stress issues that make flying impossible for them. This is totally acceptable, of course – after all, flying is a little scary. Like travelling by boat, it’s a means of transport that takes us out of our ordinary element. But while you can go out in the ocean and swim on your own, you can never really fly around for a little bit – and this makes it a little more alien.

In between people who are afraid of flying and people who absolutely love it there’s an in-between group of people who simply don’t care much for flying. I am one of these people, and friends of mine who love flying give me a hard time about it. As soon as they realize that I’m not phobic in any way, they start piling up the reasons why flying is so great. It’s either because “the feeling is great” or because “you’re well taken care of up there” or the old argument that it’s an adventure.

What happens if I am hit by an uninsured motorist?

Posted on April 3, 2011

You’re driving along and all of a sudden BAM! A car turning left into your lane doesn’t see you and you find yourself involved in a car accident. But you don’t have anything to worry about, right? After all it was obviously the other driver’s fault so their insurance will pay for your car and any injuries you may have sustained.  You get out of your vehicle and the other driver approaches you, begging you not to call the police. They have the money to pay for the damages, they promise. It turns out that they don’t have any car insurance.

What does this mean for you? Most people will assume that it means they are up the creek without a paddle, and that there is nothing that they can do but suck it up and pay for their car to be fixed. And pray that they don’t have whip-lash or any other injuries. And if you end up in the hospital and your car is a total write-off? You may think that there’s still nothing that you can do, but there is.
