Use SMS/GPS To Find The Dead

Todays modern technology is being used to find the graves of loved ones who have past on. The Jewish burial society, Chevra Kadisha, is embracing new technology to assist families in finding grave sites for the relatives.

Jerusalem and Tel Aviv have graveyards that hold upwards to 220,000 graves, which makes locating a specific grave quite a challenge. The technology is most often requested by grand children or great grand children whom have never visited their great/grand parents grave site. The grand children text message the name of their departed relative and receive a reply text, with GPS co-ordinates, informing them of the location of the grave site. Once the co-ordinates are entered into a rent-able GPS, they are quickly guided directly to the grave site.

Replacing the internal HD is going to be slightly more complicated than originally anticipated as the rear of the DCT3416 has 3 tamper proof/security screws, which I do not have a tool for. Instead I used a series of pliers, and 10 minutes later had all the screws removed. Here is what the tamper proof/security screws look like, once removed. I should add that there is also a plastic security tab, just above the IEEE 1394 jacks, which disintegrated when I attempted to

Duct Tape...It's Not Just For MacGyver Anymore

I came across this crazy site the other day called Duct Tape Fashion , which specializes in duct tape. Wait... I don't think I explained myself properly, there's a website dedicated to duct tape, and all things duct tape related. Ok, so maybe I did explain myself properly, WTF...really, duct tape. Well it seems duct tape isn't just for HVAC specialists and MacGyver anymore, it seems people are using duct tape to create all kinda of weird items like wallets, baseball caps, hats, bags, bracelets, purses, visors, and roses. Don't believe me, well check out some of these pics I got... Wallets Baseball Cap Hats Bags Bracelets Purses Visors Roses By: Mass
