Photo-a-Day Challenge

Photography

This is a photo of the dew that collects on the glass of Soluna Cafe most mornings.  Last night it rained here, so the humidity was high enough to cause  a spectacular "installation" of dew nearly completely covering the glass that surrounds the cafe.

HOWTO: Pay $20 for Unlimited Internet/Email for your Samsung BlackJack SmartPhone

Mobile Devices, "How-To"s

Tired of getting screwed by AT&T Wireless (formerly Cingular)?

I can't help you there, but I can help you get a reasonable deal on Internet access for your Samsung BlackJack i-607 (or any other Windows Mobile SmartPhone device), in case you're already saddled with them, or heaven forbid, paying more for the same service you should be paying 20 bucks for!

There is a way to get unlimited Internet access on your BlackJack, BlackJack 2 or other Windows SmartPhone device for just 20 bucks a month (in addition to whatever your current calling plan costs). You can even tether your BlackJack to your laptop and get wireless Internet access from just about anywhere your phone works (like the car).

AT&T has a data plan specifically for Windows Mobile SmartPhone devices (like the BlackJack) that is not highly promoted or well-known, but is a legitimate, unlimited data plan for $19.99/month. I've gotten 1.4mB speeds out of my laptop tethered via the cable, and 400kB over bluetooth.

It's called the SmartPhone Connect Unlimited plan, and it's not easy to find on their website. But if you use the link I have provided, or ask a phone rep for it by name, you should be good to go!

Review: Good-Bye NyQuil, Hello Tylenol Cold Multi-Symptom NightTime

Reviews

Every once in awhile one "discovers" a product that is so good that one wants to tell everyone about it.  So here we go.

I have been suffering from a miserable cold for the past few days, and the NyQuil that used to knock me blissfully unconscious for exactly 6 hours apparently now causes me to become a neurotic bundle of anxiety for about the same amount of time.

My pregnant wife suggested I try the Tylenol Cold NightTime that her awesome OB/Gyn approved for her use.

I was skeptical because it's Pseudoephedrine-free, and, well, how effective can it be if the active ingredient can't even be used to make crystal meth?

But the Tylenol Cold NightTime has worked a treat for the past few nights, so I'm giving it the thumbs up!  No word on whether long-term use causes shrinkage or anal leakage, but I will try to post a follow-up once I'm better.  :)
