Solution To Revert Back From New Yahoo! Mail to Yahoo! Mail Classic.
a) The first method is to reduce the screen resolution to the lowest resolution. Thereafter, refresh / web site in Yahoo! Mail. Yahoo! Mail system will display a message that says a low screen resolution can not accommodate New Yahoo! Mail. Thus, users will be proposed a link to go-back to the previous version of Yahoo! Mail. Just press the link, Yahoo Mail will go back to Yahoo! Mail Classic.

Ubuntu Keyserver Update Failure Fix
I was trying to update my Ubuntu PPA via terminal when I got this message. If it couldn't connect to the keyserver.ubuntu.com, how the heck it is going to get my key??? So here's the solution I found on http://www.serenux.com . Thanks to Allah, this article saved my day. :)
I get an “HTTP fetch” error when I try to import a GPG public key!
If you get the following error:
$ sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys C5E6A5ED249AD24C
Executing: gpg --ignore-time-conflict --no-options --no-default-keyring --secret-keyring /etc/apt/secring.gpg --trustdb-name /etc/apt/trustdb.gpg --keyring /etc/apt/trusted.gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys C5E6A5ED249AD24C
gpg: requesting key 249AD24C from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com
gpgkeys: HTTP fetch error 7: couldn't connect to host
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0
$It is because your firewall is blocking access to the Keyserver. Keyservers use port 11371 to communicate, not port 80 which is the normal HTTP port, so open 11371 as an outbound port on your firewall and re-run the command and it will work fine.

nbtscan - NETBIOS nameserver scanner
This is a command-line tool that scans for open NETBIOS nameservers on a local or remote TCP/IP network, and this is a first step in finding of open shares. It is based on the functionality of the standard Windows tool nbtstat, but it operates on a range of addresses instead of just one. I wrote this tool because the existing tools either didn't do what I wanted or ran only on the Windows platforms: mine runs on just about everything.

6 Tips To Control Hunger
Let's face it, trying to lose fat can be hard at times. The biggest thing that comes up time and time again is hunger. In a perfect world, you would find a way to not be hungry and still watch your waistline shrink. Can that really be done? Below are 6 tips to help guide your waistline to a new low.
1) Eat more protein
I like to tell my clients to eat more when they are looking to get leaner. Most of the time they look at me like I'm a 2 headed purple space alien. Eat more? Really? Their whole lives they have heard you need to eat less and less, but can we eat more of something and still lose weight?
It turns out that protein has some very cool effects. First off, protein helps with satiety and keeps you full longer. I could site a bunch of studies here (2, 11, 15, 24), but try this experiment out on your own. Eat 2 whole chicken breasts and the same amount of calories from Twinkies, then see how soon you are hungry again.
Two 6 oz chicken breasts have about 420 calories. This may leave some of you doing your own episode of "Man vs Food" just to finish them. Yet 3 Twinkies have about the same number of calories, and it would be easy to polish them off in no time (not that I know anything about that).
In the end, eat more protein to watch your waistline go down.
2) Drink more water
Not a new one, but the cool thing about water is 1) it is required, and 2) no calories. Basic stuff, I know, but the key question is: "Are you doing it?" Test out drinking more water and I bet you will drop fat without trying harder (8, 12, 22, 23).
Does water temperature matter?
Research on this area is pretty split (5), so if you like cold water, go for it. If you can't stand cold water, just go with room temperature water. Don't use the temperature of the water as an excuse to avoid it. Hmmm, the water is not cold, so I am going to skip it. Drink more first; then worry about the temperature.
3) Get more essential fats
Essential fats are something many, many people are lacking in today's world. Plus they are involved in virtually every process and cell in the body! Your body NEEDS them (hence that "essential" part). Hunger is the main way the body signals you to get more nutrients (both macronutrients and micronutrients).
The downside is that the world we live in today has non-essential fats readily accessible. You can eat all the non-essential trans fats you want, but they will do nothing to increase the essential ones and only screw things up more!
A good source?
One of the best sources of essential fats is krill oil. Krill or Fish oil also may help with body composition too (17), and increase muscle mass (21).
4) Exercise
Despite what you read in the popular media, exercise is a good thing. While it may be very hard to out exercise the doughnut, that doesn't mean exercise is worthless. Exercise is the main way to burn calories, build metabolically active muscle tissue, and sensitize the body to nutrients.
Most people nowadays spend most of their time seated. Even when they exercise, it is for a small portion of their day; so we need to maximize that time by prioritizing full body exercises. Not only will this burn a ton of calories, it will work to add more muscle. More muscle literally pulls fats and carbs out of the blood to be burned. Your resting metabolic rate is your primarily caloric burn, so you want to have a fast, high horsepower motor.
Another benefit from exercise is related to upregulation of the GLUT-4 receptor which allows glucose to enter into a cell (4). GLUT-4 is an insulin-regulated glucose transporter located in fat and muscle tissue. This protein is expressed only in muscle and fat cells - the major tissues in the body that respond to insulin. This leads us into point 5.....
5) Control insulin
The body employs a myriad of different feedback loops and regulation techniques. I'm sure you have read about these many times and scratched your head or fallen asleep. Everything from mTOR and AMPK to all the hormones like GH, testosterone, estrogen, leptin, Neuropeptide Y, ad nauseam (9, 16, 19, 20, 25).
While these are very important, we need to ask 2 key questions.
1) Do we have any direct control over them?
2) What are the main effects?
Out of these key questions we find that insulin is a major regulator hormone, and we do maintain some control over it.
Think of insulin as the "fuel selector switch" in the body.
High levels of insulin = storage mode.
This can be storing carbs in muscle and live tissue as glycogen, or storing more fat around those love handles you hate.
The opposite works to our favor, though, as low levels of insulin = fat burning (enhanced fat metabolism). Everything that you eat will result in some release of insulin, but we want to keep the overall response as low as possible by sticking with more proteins like meat, fish, egg, lots of non-starchy vegetables, and essential fats.
6) Spike insulin
Perhaps I lost my mind here, but the point above talked about controlling insulin and this is still true. We want to keep insulin at a low level during the day overall.
One time we will want to increase insulin temporarily, though, is before training since it may help enhance carbohydrate metabolism. When you are lifting weights, your body is fueled primarily by carbohydrates. Remember that when insulin is high, it pushes the fuel selector switch towards carbohydrate metabolism which is great right before a strength training session.
Insulin is also a potent vasodilator, so you can dump those crazy NO (nitric oxide) products that don't work in the trash can (or give them to your neighbor). Insulin has been used in research for the sole purpose to exploit its vasodilator effects on vessels (3, 6, 10, 13, 14). Instead of some NO (nitric oxide) products, have a protein and carb drink about 30-60 minutes pre-training. In addition to temporarily increasing insulin, it also helps increase muscle protein synthesis where you are literally adding proteins to muscle tissue so they are bigger and stronger (1, 7, 18). Remember, we want to build a huge engine to burn more calories even at rest.
Conclusion
Hunger can be a vicious enemy and you are now armed with these 6 tips to beat it into submission. Go forth and conquer!

Voyager Home Screen App For Nokia S60v5 and Symbian^3 Mobiles |
For those who cannot afford a true HTC PHONE or IPHONE or any other android phone... and stuck with your Nokia Symbian Phone (Like Me)... here is the cheap (free) solution....
Want your phone’s UI to be as useful as iPhone or Android Voyager Home screen does just that.It brings all the UI goodness you will see on an android smartphone to the symbian. Get a wonderful home screen and easy access to your favorite apps.
Home Screen :
Once the app is installed it takes over the entire UI giving your phone a new look and feel.There are two home screens to select one with HTC Sense UI like home screen.You can add your favorite feeds and tweet from here.To browse through the feeds just slide it left or right.Only the headlines are shown and you can select only from predefined sources.Also you cant see any tweets.The application shortcuts are not customizable either.
Another nice feature is missed call and message notifications.
The old boring menu is changed with iPhone style app shortcuts which you can access by flicking left or right.On flicking right from home screen you can easily access all in built as well as installed applications.Getting to your favorite app was just a matter of flicking left or right and it was mostly a smooth experience with occasional accidental opening of apps.That said it may be me being not used to it.
Customization :
You can easily rearrange,move or delete the app shortcuts. Just hold the icons down for few moments and they will have a nice wobbly effect(don’t no that’s the correct word) and you can rearrange the icons,move it to another page,or uninstall by dragging it to the bottom recycle bin icon.A nice feature is you can create folders like symbian’s default UI by just placing an icon over the other which you want to add to a folder and name it.
