CVS Minute Clinic Healthcare Review

Jan 27, 2012 by Paul White

Tonight I visited CVS and tried their minute Clinic.  I had a terrible sinus infection and my normal doctors office was closed.  I needed some strong antibiotics to put this cold to rest.  To make a long story short, great experience.  It was by far the fastest and highest quality heatlhcare visit I have ever made.  So if you have a cold and want to make 1 stop to see a Doctor, and get your prescription

filled, Minute Clinic is the perfect solution.

Should I upgrade to a Full Frame Sony DSLR

Jan 22, 2012 by Paul White

If you are like me that means you likely own one of the APS-C Sony Alpha DSLR cameras.  After years of shooting with my a700, I have reached the point where I am considering going full frame.  After a visit to the Sony Store at the Houston Galleria, I have pretty much made up my mind that Full Frame is the way to go.  On this article I share my observations of the a900 of which I demoed, and how it differs from my a700.

How to Repair a PS3 with blinking lights

Dec 19, 2011 by Paul White

Recently my PS3 stopped working.  After searching around, I found that the problem was due to bad solder connections between the GPU and the Board.  This would cause it to flash red and or yellow lights when you hit the power button.  It would not boot up.  Some people use a hair dryer to remelt their chips into the board, but this is only a temporary fix if you are lucky.  I wanted to fix it for good, so I sent my PS3 off to SpitFireMods for repair.  The purpose of this article is to share some experiences with other PS3 owners who are considering having their PS3 repaired.

Dec 14, 2011 by Paul White

If you are reading, then its likely that you recently ran chkdsk ( check disk ) and after it was done you found that many of your files were missing.  Recently my computer told me to run chkdsk because there were problems with my 2TB SATA hard drive.  Afterwards many of my files were missing. However don't worry, most of your files are still there, just look for a directory on the root of your hard drive called found.000 ( its hidden ).

Dec 14, 2011 by Paul White

Recently one of my clients alerted me that the HTML newsletter I built for them is not displaying correctly on outlook 2010.  So with a little research I had to figure out the best way to rebuild the newsletter to ensure it displays consistently with all email clients.  If you are a developer that is used to using box model designs ( div tags ), then you might want to rethink that approach.  Here are my findings.

Super Talent Pico C USB Flash Drive Review and Benchmarks

Nov 18, 2011 by Paul White

I finally decided that my old USB flash drive was taking up a little too much bulk in my pocket.  That and I was close to maxing out its 8GB capacity.  So I upgraded to a Super Talent Pico C USB Flash Drive.  This is by far the smallest USB drive available ( That I know of ).  It also comes in Chrome, Silver, and 24K gold plated finishes.  Bling and Nerd Credit come together.  I know the question many are asking.  Is it all show and no go?  I put both my old drive and my new drive through some benchmarks for comparison. 

How to setup 301 Redirects in IIS 7 for good SEO

Nov 14, 2011 by Paul White

Everybody knows that in order to properly preserve Google Page Rank when you are moving a page on a site, you need to perform a 301 Redirect to the new page, as this tells search engines this is a permanent move, and to record it into their index.  However few people realize the additional problem of duplicate content across multiple domains.  So if you have both your domain and your www subdomain pointing at the same site, its likely that google is penalizing you for this. So in this article I show you how to properly setup a website with multiple domains using IIS 7.5 and 301 redirects for good SEO.
