How does a water clock tell time?
I was looking for something to back up my theory that 2 containers are joined by a tube. One of the containers was full of water and higher than the other one, so that the water from the higher one flowed into the bottom one through the tube. The tube was probably sized according to the time it took for a specific amount of water to pass through it into the other container. After that had been done they put marks on the bottom one so that they could say for example that the water was up to here, therefore it was 12 o'clock.
At least that's what I heard.
What is a Qi compliant device?
A device that conforms to the world power consortium's (WPC) electro-magnetic induction charging standard.
In layman's terms, it's a standard for wireless charging... By installing Qi charging mats in your home, office, car, etc. you will be able to charge your Qi compliant devices by simply setting them down on the mat.
Imagine never having to plug your phone in again... Or how about cleaning up your kitchen/bathroom counters that are cluttered with power cords from all of your small appliances. Or your laptop, or your wall mounted television.
Imagine being able to charge your tablet device simply by setting down on the coffee table.
That is Qi.
Hi,
I dont know when exactly IMEI is used with the network. But I guess... might be for Identification process, for ex,.. to provide your Mobile a way to get identified with the network so that network would route the call/messages or any kind of services that are availed to you ( You must know it is a unique number ).
Again, it is used when you dont have sim but only the phone with you. That time you must be knowing that you can make an Emergency call without SIM! This emergency call happens because of your IMEI as it identifes itself with the network. However... IMEI is optional for emergency call in ..... country but necessary in ..... countries!
Moreover, it will be used when your Mobile has been stolen. In that case you can approach the network operator to bar your mobile usage.. I mean to make your mobile a garbage of no use.
Hope you have got your answer!!!

Can't turn off family filter in IE 7?
Hi,
I know quite a bit about running home computers and even for me (Hmm) removing the WINDOWS FAMILY FILTER seemed extremely tricky as there are indexed files to have to find and delete (PS. Kit note: using a Laptop Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 2008 build on new Windows 7) - keeping it short nothing worked until I downloaded "Revo Uninstaller" a free download; here's the link -------------- http://www.revouninstaller.com/ ------------- make sure you remove and delete everything!!!You can always choose to upload and or not upload anything you need via the Windows Update Installer later on.
Hope this helps!!! I was so annoyed and then delighted at getting rid of it I had to let other people know too (and NO I don't work for Revo Uninstaller!).
GOOD LUCK ALL
