ImakMy wife keeps on complaining to me before about the pain she feels on her wrist. It radiates to her forearm even to her whole hand. I thought this is just about lack of stretching some muscles or she may have just over used her hand because she usually works in her computer more than 8 hours a day. I thought that maybe it is related to her pregnancy.

But I worried when I read about certain medical condition called Carpal Tunnel Syndrome that occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the hand, becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. This will result to pain, paresthesias, and muscle weakness in the forearm and hand. There are only few treatments for CTS but just a temporary relief for pain. Surgery will be needed if there will be a persistent pain and numbness. Aside from that, it is costly and you will need months of rest before can do your usual activity once again.

For now, we are working on its prevention. Luckily, there is an available wrist splint such as the IMAK® SmartGlove®. This will serve as carpal tunnel relief and by encouraging proper hand and wrist position, muscle relaxation and exercise will help prevent Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from developing in the future.

I will try to use this also because I work on computers, too. We all know how important our hands in blogging. So an ounce of prevention is still better than a pound of cure.

How to Increase Page Rank

Posted by Suplado | 7/23/2008 | | 0 comments »

PageRank wikipedia defined: is a link analysis algorithm that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the World Wide Web, with the purpose of “measuring” its relative importance within the set.And it is believed that A page that is linked to by many pages with high PageRank receives a high rank itself. If there are no links to a web page there is no support for that page.


I know there are a few bloggers out there who do not believe in PageRank anymore. I’m not quite sure as to why. Maybe it’s a defense mechanism because their blogs don’t have a PR or they have been slapped by Google where their present PR dropped or was back to zero. Or maybe they just don’t care because anyway they don’t monetize their blogs. Perhaps to them, they believe that as long as they are writing good articles and still receive visitors, PR could not be that important.

Alzheimer's Memory Walk

Posted by Suplado | 7/22/2008 | | 0 comments »

Alzheimer’s is a slowly progressive and fatal brain disease which seriously affects a person’s ability to carry out daily activities. As many as 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease. This disease does not only affect the person concern but also greatly affects his whole family. This can be saddest thing in life when there is somebody you love and shared time of our life could no longer recognize you anymore. I have been able to manage patients with Alzheimer’s and it really takes a lot of explanation to the family since his awareness at that time is low compared to previously.

Unlike today awareness campaigns like that of Alzheimer's Memory Walk® is the nation's largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer care, support and research. This looks for volunteers to become champions in the fight against Alzheimer's via walks in more than 600 communities. A typical Memory Walk is a 2-3 mile walk which will be held on a weekend morning in the fall.

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.”
- The Bible: Ecclesiastes

My Neighbor Visitors

Posted by Suplado | 7/19/2008 | | 0 comments »

I was distracted lately by those people that keep on coming back on my neighbors unit. I thought they are just friends or relatives who never thought or know that my neighbors had already vacated his units and transferred already.

Then lately I know it was from a commercial collection agencies’ full-service debt collection agency responsible for the collections of certain credit cards and lending companies receivables.

Maybe they are responsible of those numbers of demand and credit cards letter already accumulated on my neighbor’s letter box.

Our country is an excellent source of professionals with 1,181 colleges and universities that offer graduate and post-graduate degrees. Our country is also surrounded by 1,276 schools that offer vocational and technical training.

On the other hand, having 700,000 new college graduates every year results to an additional 11 percent unemployment increasing every year. The reason of this is that the economy cannot create enough jobs to accommodate newly graduates from their field of expertise.

Statistics show that there are some 2.5 million students enrolled at the tertiary (college) level. Of these, over 300,000 are enrolled in medical and health-related courses. Over 400,000 are taking engineering and computer science courses. Only 60% of graduates can work but half of those are not regular jobs and not related from their courses. The 20 percent shifted to other courses and others took post graduate courses just to have a job after.

Imagine the time you wasted in school and yet you can’t get a better job after graduation. Take me for example. I am a registered nurse and yet working and earning money without using my entire four years in nursing school maybe in some fields. But if I will be given a chance I will try to get Cisco certification because opportunity and career-wise, you can have better job with better money in this. See how global demand is growing for IT professionals. As we all know, internet and connections to world wide web are important to the whole world. This is a large part of the reason why many world’s multinationals companies run by computers and internet.

Can you imagine the world without internet today? Visit Cisco website and you will see the greater opportunity. Read personal stories of lucky Cisco certified people and see how they captured the world.

PageRank wikipedia defined: is a link analysis algorithm that assigns a numerical weighting to each element of a hyperlinked set of documents, such as the World Wide Web, with the purpose of “measuring” its relative importance within the set.And it is believed that A page that is linked to by many pages with high PageRank receives a high rank itself. If there are no links to a web page there is no support for that page.

Bloggers exchange links to each other to be able to increase their ranks on the web pages. But for me sharing links is like extending your hands of friendship to other people. I think about this famous friendship quote:

“Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up.”

My Son Bling’s Friend

Posted by Suplado | 7/16/2008 | , | 0 comments »

My son Kyle loves to play games on the computer especially RPG rule playing games. As a matter of fact I used it as a reward for him to study his lessons from school. If he is able to do some very good task like writing and studying, he will be rewarded with allowable time to play this game.

Luckily, dungeonrunners.com has free game MMORPG available to download and play. A fantasy game in a fantasy world in a the dark and stinky dungeon where you are going to fight with those beasts and giants with your weapon. In here you will discover the fantasy place in a magical world with a cute, funny and hip hop sidekick Bling Gnome that follows you wherever you go.

My son already imitated the way he woohoo! and yeeehaaaa. Everytime he converts all the dropped items and turn them into gold and poop out powerful item. He even wanted to have Bling Gnome because it is free with every purchase of Dungeon Runners. He wanted to personalize it as what he did to his favorite doll.

His friend that he always wanted to be in his side dressed up like a rapper with blings, chain, hat and silver jewels. I told him not to worry. After all, it will be his reward if you will able have better grades in school.
