  • FOUR THINGS YOU PROBABLY NEVER KNEW YOUR MOBILE PHONE COULD DO !!!

    WANThere are a few things that can be done in times of grave emergencies. Your mobile phone can actually be a life saver or an emergency tool for survival.

    Check out the things that you can do with it:

    FIRST
    Emergency
    The Emergency Number worldwide for all Mobile Phones is 112. If you find yourself out of the coverage area of your mobile network and there is an emergency, dial 112 and your mobile will search any existing network in your area to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly this number 112 can be dialled even if the keypad is locked. This works on all phones worldwide and is free. It is the equivalent of 000.

    SECOND
    Have you locked your keys in the car?

    Does your car have remote keyless entry? This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone:
    If you lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are at home, call someone at home on their mobile phone from your cell phone.

    Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car door and have the person at your home press the unlock button, holding it near the mobile phone on their end.

    Your car will unlock.

    Saves someone from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be thousands of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other ‘remote’ for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

    Editor’s Note: I didn’t believe this when I heard about it! I rang my daughter in Sydney from Perth when we went on holiday. She had the spare car key. We tried it out and it unlocked our car over a mobile phone!’

    THIRD
    Hidden Battery Power

    To activate, press the keys *3370# (remember the asterisk). Do this when the phone is almost dead. Your mobile will restart in a special way with this new reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery life. This reserve will get re-charged when you charge your mobile next time. This secret is in the fine print in most phone manuals. Most people however skip this information without realising.

    FOURTH
    How to disable a STOLEN mobile phone?

    To check your Mobile phone’s serial number, key in the following digits on your phone: * # 0 6 #
    Ensure you put an asterisk BEFORE the #06# sequence.

    A 15 digit code will appear on the screen. This number is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it somewhere safe.

    If your phone ever get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset so even if the thief changes the SIM card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won’t get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can’t use/sell it either. If everybody did this, there would be no point in people stealing mobile phones.

    This secret is also in the fine print of most mobile phone manuals. It was created for the very purpose of trying to prevent phones from being stolen.

    Also -ATM PIN Number Reversal – Good to Know !!

    If you should ever be forced by a robber to withdraw money from an ATM machine, you can notify the police by entering your PIN # in reverse. For example, if your pin number is 1234, then you would put in 4321. The ATM system recognizes that your PIN number is backwards from the ATM card you placed in the machine. The machine will still give you the money you requested, but unknown to the robber, the police will be immediately dispatched to the location. All ATM’s carry this emergency sequencer by law.

    EXTRA NOTE: You should confirm that these tips actually work for your phone. Sometimes the world does not include USA and Canada.

    The quality of our educational system sometimes brings a tear to my eye!

  • PORK CHOPS

    In a zoo in California , a mother tiger gave birth to a rare set of triplet tiger cubs.

    Unfortunately,
    Due to complications in the pregnancy, the cubs were born prematurely and due to their tiny size, they died shortly after birth.

    The mother tiger after recovering from the delivery, suddenly started to decline in health, although physically she was fine.

    The veterinarians felt that the loss of her litter had caused the tigress to fall into a depression.
    The doctors decided that if the tigress could surrogate another mother’s cubs, perhaps she would improve.

    After checking with many other zoos across the country, the depressing news was that there were no tiger cubs of the right age to introduce to the mourning mother..

    The veterinarians decided to try something that had never been tried in a zoo environment.
    Sometimes a mother of one species will take on the care of a different species..

    The only orphans’ that could be found quickly, were a litter of weanling pigs.
    The zoo keepers and vets wrapped the piglets in tiger skin and placed the babies around the mother tiger…
    Would they become cubs or pork chops?

    Take a look…you won’t believe your eyes.

  • Will I Live To Be 80?

    WAN
    Here’s something to think about.

     

    I recently picked a new primary care doctor. After two visits and exhaustive Lab tests, he said I was doing ‘fairly well’ for my age. (I just turned SIXTY NINE).

     

    A little concerned about that comment, I couldn’t resist asking him, ‘Do you think I’ll live to be 80?’

     

    He asked, ‘Do you smoke tobacco, or drink beer, wine or hard liquor?’

     

    ‘Oh no,’ I replied. ‘I’m not doing drugs, either!’

     

    Then he asked, ‘Do you eat rib-eye steaks and barbecued ribs?’

     

    ‘I said, ‘Not much… my former doctor said that all red meat is very unhealthy!’

     

    ‘Do you spend a lot of time in the sun, like playing golf, boating, sailing, hiking, or bicycling?’

     

    ‘No, I don’t,’ I said.

     

    He asked, ‘Do you gamble, drive fast cars, or have a lots of sex?’

     

    ‘No,’ I said…He looked at me and said,.. ‘Then, why do you even give a shit?’

    If advertisers took their slogans off of famous brands and applied them on condom packages this is what they would look like. Now the famous Nike slogan

    “Just do it” 

    gets a whole new meaning.

  • AUSTRALIA 2012…..HOW SAD ……

    AUSTRALIA 2012…..HOW SAD ……

    FROM A BLOODY GREEK BASTARD WHO MIGRATED TO AUSTRALIA IN THE LATE 1940s.

    This is not a ”funny” ….. it’s what all of us are thinking but not saying ….. it’s the pink elephant in the room….

    Nik Ziogopoulos states what is fact and what we all believe Nik would be in his 70’s at least

    A GREAT PERSPECTIVE FROM A ‘NEW’ AUSTRALIAN –

    Nik Ziogopoulos

    I  emigrated to Australia over 60 years ago – on the ship there were Poms, Italians (Spags), Germans (Huns), Austrian’s, Yugoslavs (Yuges), Poles, Ducchys, Ukes (Ukrainians) and Greeks.

    (Note – All European people!!) all looking forward  to starting a new life in Australia .  I arrived with 30 quid in my pocket and that’s all I had to my name   Did I put my hand out??  Of course not – I  got a job and paid my way just like everyone else who came to this country back then.

    Now,  it’s my taxes that subsidise these people who think they have Gods given right (read Allah) to come here and  criticize  those of us who have worked for the  country we now call home.

    If  I didn’t like what I saw when I got here I would have  gone home – they have that same option.

    If they don’t want to become Australian, they can GO  BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM

    – WE CERTAINLY DON’T NEED THEM  HERE!

    When  will this stop?

    They want 2 of their own public holidays, because Christians have Christmas, Easter & Good  Friday.

    They force our children to eat Halal Meat Pies and Sausage Rolls from the school canteens, so the Muslim kids can feel more Aussie. We were not consulted about this change – they just forced it on us.

    Our  foods are slowly all becoming Halal foods, our cheeses, chocolates and even good old Sanitarium  foods.

    Our  Government is ALLOWING this to happen. It has to stop now, while we still have some power to be able to stop it.

    Regarding Our National Anthem –

    I  am  sorry, but after hearing they want to sing the  National Anthem in Arabic – enough is enough. Nowhere or at no other time in our nation’s history, did they sing it in Italian, Japanese, Polish, Irish (Celtic), German, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Greek, or any other language  ….  because of immigration.

    It was written in English, and should be sung word for word the way it was written.

    The  news broadcasts even gave the translation — not even close.

    I am not sorry if this offends anyone, this is MY COUNTRY

    IF THIS IS YOUR COUNTRY TOO – SPEAK UP BY PASSING THIS ALONG
    I am  not against  immigration, just come through like everyone else.  Get a sponsor; have a place to lay your head; have a job; pay your taxes, live by the rules

    AND LEARN THE LANGUAGE as all other immigrants have in the past –

    and  LONG LIVE Australia !

    Think about this:

    If you don’t want support this for fear of offending  someone

    YOU’RE PART OF THE PROBLEM!!!!

    Will we still be the Country of Choice and still be Australia if we continue like this –

    to make the changes forced on us by the people from other countries

    who  have come to live in Australia because it is their Country of Choice?

    Think  about  it!

    IMMIGRANTS  –   NOT  AUSTRALIANS  –   MUST ADAPT

    It is Time for Australia to Speak up!

    PS:
    This post is of course from an Australian perspective, but it is very perceptive of almost any country. To put it in reverse, if English[Australian] speaking people were to emigrate en-masse to another non-English speaking country and try to force the Australian Culture on the new home country, just how far would it get?  If any person desires to migrate to a new country, for whatever reason, one of the requirements is to respect and adapt to that new home. Adapt to the language, adapt to the environment, adapt to the culture and become part of the new – and not bring the baggage from the old. That is not to say to drop the heritage and culture from the homeland. There is much benefit from a diverse mix of cultures, but not to convert the recipient country to the exiting country.

    The concept is universal.
