Connect your Mac Book Pro via Reliance using a Nokia 6235
For those of you that would like to know how to use your Nokia 6235 CDMA to hook up to the Reliance Connection on your Apple Macintosh computer, you're in luck...
Assumptions (You've got the right cable from the Reliance Dealer)
When you connect it, a new port will be detected under Network in System Preferences.
Then configure the username and password as your Number and dial #777 as the ISP number.
Now here is where you need the correct modem script which you can get from this website.

This needs to be copied to /Library/Modem Scripts
Have fun.

SSY Retreat
I got back from the SSY Retreat on Sunday.
It was a beautiful experience.
I would prefer that most of you guys do the program and enjoy it for yourself instead of me trying to explain what it is all about.
Apple
Today is my first day at Apple Computers and boy do I love the iMac I'm working on. :-)
You guys should get one.

Many of you must be wondering, “Whatever happened to 2Web Technologies?' Um - no? Anybody? Well, if you're wondering, we joined Google's New York City office last year to come up with a solution to a problem we understood all too well: how to quickly and easily share information in real time. Spreadsheets were a clear target. They can have real power, but there are equally real drawbacks to collaborating and sharing them. This fact led our little team to explore making spreadsheet software, and the spreadsheets themselves, available on the web. And now, Google Spreadsheets is available as a limited test on Google Labs. Even when it was only partly developed, we used Google Spreadsheets (alpha!) to manage our task lists, our feature lists, our bandwidth estimates, our storage estimates, even our complex team event voting ;). We now know the true meaning of 'share.'
Now when I say “share,” I don’t mean “send group email,” and I certainly don't mean 'time-share'. (That’s actually the root of the problem we are trying to solve: multiple out-of-sync versions that are email attachments.) I do mean “use and update the same spr"

Rite Brain Studio: "How Can I Help My Child to Read?
Article from http://www.brainy-child.com/article/phonics-reading.html , posted by www.ritebrainstudio.com
Most parents with children would have heard the words 'read me a story'. Unfortunately, not many children have their bedtime story read to them nightly. The emergence of things like the Internet and television has in some instances stolen the time that might be spent reading with children.
Why reading to your child is important?
Difficulty with reading does not just affect your child's ability in school, but carries over as low self-esteem into every aspect of life. Surveys of adolescents and young adults with criminal records show that about half have reading difficulties.When you read a book to a young child, at any age, you enhance his visual, vocabulary and listening skills as well as develop an important foundation for your child's language development. Your child's world will be forever expanded and enriched if you develop his imagination and curiosity through books. Studies have shown that children who are read to early are more likely to be successful in school and in life. In fact, many school-age children who are good readers had parents who read, and read to them. Indeed, reading starts at home!"
