Google Search Tips And Tricks: How To Search Like A Pro

No comments :

The internet is a vast sea of information, therefore to get the most out of Google search, you must instruct the search engine to bring exactly what you want. Since Google is the largest search engine in the world, I'll share with you some tricks on how to search like a pro on Google.

1. Use of Quotation Marks and Key Phrases
When looking for something on Google, envelope the key word with quotation marks to instruct the search engine to bring all about what you searching for. For example if you type in"Reebok", search engine would bring all about Reebok and nothing else.

2. Time Range Search
If you want to know about the NFL between 2011 to 2014 for example your search would look like this NFL 2011...2014. This would instruct the search engine to bring up all about the NFL between 2011 and 2014.

3. Document Type Search
If you are looking for a particular file type say a PDF file for example you can instruct Google to look for PDF files on Technology by typing in "Filetype: PDF Technology". For word file replace PDF with docx, for PowerPoint files put in ppt, for excel type in xls.

4. Inclusive Search
If you want search engine to bring up two terms in the search, like Apple and Mac for example, just type Apple OR Mac.5. Searching for Word DefinitionYou don't need to type a word on Google and start looking for dictionary definition on dictionary sites. To get a definition on Google just type "define: word" and the definition would pop up on top page

WORLD'S SMALLEST WAIST

No comments :


Cathie Jung of Old Mystic, Connecticut, USA have the Smallest Waist On A Living Person- just 15 inches. Cathie Jung’s waist is about the same size as a regular jar of mayonnaise.

Cathie Jung’s astonishing midriff is not a result of malnutrition or disorder. Rather, her 39-15-39 figure is a product of spending the last 25 years laced into tight corsets, which are removed, only when Cathie showers. Only when the weather is unbearably hot, the corset is taken off for a short while.

She’s been wearing a corset every day for the past 12 years, and she now wears one 24 hours a day.

WHY YOU SHOULD ALWAYS EAT BANANA

No comments :


When compared to an apple, a banana has four times the protein, twice the carbohydrate, three times the phosphorus, five times the vitamin A and iron, and twice the other vitamins and minerals. It is also rich in potassium and is one of the best value foods around. No wonder monkeys are so happy all the time!

Energy Boost: Bananas contain three natural sugars - sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial boost of energy. Research has proven that just two bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout. No wonder the banana is the number one fruit with the world's leading athletes

Depression: Bananas contain tryptophan, a type of protein that the body converts into serotonin, known to make you relax, improve your mood and generally make you feel happier.

Smoking: Bananas can also help people trying to give up smoking. The B6, B12 they contain, as well as the potassium and magnesium found in them, help the body recover from the effects of nicotine withdrawal.

Anaemia: High in iron, bananas can stimulate the production of haemoglobin in the blood and so helps in cases of anaemia.

Blood Pressure: This unique tropical fruit is extremely high in potassium yet low in salt, making it perfect to beat blood pressure. So much so, the US Food and Drug Administration have just allowed the banana industry to make official claims for the fruit's ability to reduce the risk of blood pressure and stroke.

Brain Power: 200 students at a Twickenham (Middlesex, England) school were helped through their exams this year by eating bananas at breakfast, break, and lunch in a bid to boost their brain power. Research has shown that the potassium-packed fruit can assist learning by making pupils more alert.

Constipation: High in fiber, including bananas in the diet can help restore normal bowel action, helping to overcome the problem without resorting to laxatives.

Morning Sickness: Snacking on bananas between meals helps to keep blood sugar levels up and avoid morning sickness.

Mosquito Bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Ulcers: The banana is used as the dietary food against intestinal disorders because of its soft texture and smoothness. It is the only raw fruit that can be eaten without distress in chronic cases. It also neutralizes over-acidity and reduces irritation by coating the lining of the stomach.

Stress: When we are stressed, our metabolic rate rises, thereby reducing our potassium levels. These can be rebalanced with the help of a high-potassium banana snack.

Strokes: According to research in The New England Journal of Medicine, "eating bananas as part of a regular diet can cut the risk of death by strokes by as much as 40%."

Ointment for scrapes and bruises: A simple banana peel can help heal cuts and scrapes, greatly reduce the build-up of scar tissue. To heal bruises faster, apply the inside of a ripe banana peel to the bruise. The best thing would be to bandage the banana peel to the bruise overnight.

So maybe it's time to change that well-known phrase to…

"A banana a day keeps the doctor away."

An iPhone user was more than shocked when his phone’s charger started sm…

No comments :

In 2013 a number of reports about Apple and Samsung smartphone malfunctions circled the Internet. At the start of the new year, yet another iPhone user got the shock of his life as he watched his phone’s charger melt in his hand.

James Ward, a 25 year old electrician from Essex, boughta charger for his iPhone 5 from an EE store six months ago. The charger had initially been working properly, but things changed with the start of the new year. Ward plugged in the charger before going to bed, but luckily decided to stay up a little longer in order to check his e-mail. His phone’s charger started emitting billows of smoke before melting in his hand. The terrified man panicked at the thought of his 18 month old baby girl, who was asleep at the time, and how dangerous the situation could have been had he not been in the room when the charger overheated. There’s no word on the subject from either Apple or EE.

Woman Rushed To Hospital After Painful 3 Hour Orgasm (Photos)

No comments :


For one Seattle woman, a mind-blowing orgasm sent her to heaven - and then to the emergency room.

DailyMail reports Elizabeth had just had sex with her partner Eric, but well after he climbed out of bed, Liz was hitting new peaks of pleasure. About an hour into her epic climax, Liz started to panic.By the second hour, the panting woman was rushed to hospital where medical staff thought she was in labor.

Liz's orgasm lasted for over three hours before she finally found relief. The young couple shared their bizarre story during last night's TLCshow 'Sex Sent Me to the ER'.

Liz, who didn't give her last name, recounted how she tried everything from jumping to drinking to shake the ache. 'I started hopping up and down to see if that would do anything,' Liz said about her first frenzied hour. I started trying to drink wine to see if that would calm down my system. I tried just about every possible thing I could do to stop having an orgasm.'

Eric drove his partner to the ER, where, he recalled, some people stared and shared their insights.

'As much of a relief as it was to have her in the hospital, now there were eyes on me and I was still feeling very tense and uptight and uncertain about what was going on and what was going to happen,' Eric said.

Liz's orgasm continued for another hour in the hospital before it finally waned.

Student Creates Hydrophobic Shirt That’s Impossible to Stain

No comments :


The Silic shirt is an amazing garment that just doesn’t catch a stain. No matter what you spill on it – water, soda, or even ketchup – it just rolls right off the T-shirt. Invented by San Francisco based student, Aamir Patel, the shirts aremade from a material with billions of silica particles bonded to the fibers on a microscopic level. Despite the unique material used, Silic shirts are said to feel no different from regular clothing. Patel has created a Kickstarter page for his unique invention and has already exceeded his target of raising $20,000. The campaign closes on 26th January. The shirts are expected to go on sale online in May, at $50 a piece. Patel has been working on the shirt project for a year-and-a-half now. For his first prototype, he simply sprayed a stain-resistant chemical on a shirt, but he realized it would last for only one wash. Then he started to think of a way to incorporate the technology right into the fabric. After several trials and errors, he finally managed to create a fabric that is stain-proof on a molecular level. Not only does the technology last longer, but  it doesn’t even irritate the skin, either. Patel says that most liquid molecules will not be able to touch the fabric because of a microscopic layer of air that forms between the liquid and fabric.

Woman Runs 500 Kilometers in 86 Hours without Any Sleep

No comments :


Kim Allen, a 47-year-old ultra-distance runner from New Zealand, recently broke the world record for running the longest distance without sleep. She surpassed the previous record of 486 km (set by American Pam Reed in 2005) by running a whopping 500 km. It took her 86 hours, 11 minutes and 9 seconds of non-stop running to complete the challenge. Kim began at 6 am on the 19th of December, in Auckland, and kept at it for four long days. She ran initially, but slowed down to a walk in the final laps. The mother-of-fourcalled her achievement “Sleepless in Auckland.” “It’s all a bit surreal at the moment,” she said, shortly aftercompleting the feat. This wasn’t her first attempt; Kim tried to beat Reed’s record last year, but she could only manage 370 km before she had to stop. This time, she reached her goal with blistered feet and swollen ankles. But Kim was so ecstatic about her achievement that she referred to her state as “just a bit weary.” She also said that she was overwhelmed and could not believe her quest was over.

Samsung Phone Gets Too Hot, Burns Down House

No comments :


It is one thing for the Samsung Galaxy S4 to be the hottest smartphone on the market today, but it’s a different story when “hot” gets too real, sending a man’s house in Hong Kong up in flames.Chinese website Xianghuo.com reported a recent incident involving a Hong Kong resident whose Samsung Galaxy S4 allegedly exploded and caught fire while he was playing “Love Machine,” one of the most popular games for Android.After hearing a loud popping sound, Mr. Du threw his smartphone onto the couch, where flames quickly spread and caused substantial damage to the house. He and his wife managed to escape unscathed. Another similar case was reported a month before this, in which an 18-year-old Swiss girl suffered third-degree burns on her leg from an exploding Samsung Galaxy S3 placed in her pocket. In 2012, the same case was reported in Dublin, where a man’s Galaxy S3 caught fire on his car’s dashboard. Another incident involved Apple, Samsung’s key competitor. Reports state that a Chinese woman died from an electric shock when she answered a call on her iPhone 5 while the phone was charging. Another man reportedly suffered the same fate, only this time it led to a coma. For Apple, using official chargers is a must for avoiding damage to the phone, not to mention physical injuries. In a number of cases, unofficial third-party products were pointed out as the cause of the smartphone mishaps. As in the case of the Swiss woman, her phone was outfitted with a discounted replacement battery. But in Mr. Du’s case, he claimed to have used all legitimate Samsung products. Samsung’s Hong Kong unit is currently investigating the incident.

World's Quietest Room Will Drive You Crazy in 30 Minutes

No comments :


Sometimes, you need a little peace and quiet to stay sane. But it turns out too much quiet can drive you crazy- or at least make you hallucinate. That’s what scientists at Orfield Labsin Minneapolis have found by studying how subjects react in their anechoic chamber, also known as the world’s quietest room. The sound level in the room, which actually has the Guinness World Record, is -9 decibels, compared to the average “quiet” room’s 30, according to MPR News.

The key to the level of silence is the fact that the walls, floor and ceiling absorb all sound, rather than reflecting it, as most surfaces do. Thus the term anechoic: no echo. It’s so quiet, you can hear your own organs: your heart, stomach, even your ears, which make a tiny amount of noise. It turns out that it’s not an especially pleasant experience, especially in the dark. The longest anyone has evers pent alone in the chamber? Forty-five minutes. Orfield Labs uses the anechoic chamber to test the noise levels of various products like LED lights. But watch out: it could easily become a place to drive people mad.
