Google Chrome For Secure Browsing?




The reason I prefer browsers to run similarly to Firefox is due to  a few of my favorite add-ons to promote security and speed.
But Google's browser Chrome has a devoted audience and is very fast pace and is constantly growing. Of course, it also generates a unique user ID and submits entries to Google to generate suggestions.

SRWare Iron is a really great alternative. The browser is based on the Chromium-source and offers the same features as Chrome but without the critical points of privacy concern. Lets just say SRWare is a great alternative when it comes to privacy.

And Comodo Dragon is a Chromium-source browser that offers you all of Chrome's features with the level of security and privacy you only get from Comodo. 











U.S Cyber Security Alert




The U.S. government does not have the best ongoing record with cyber-security. With at least 75 cyber-security failures over the past eight years and 13 in the past six months, U.S. government cyber-security efforts could use some revamping.
But the U.S. is about to go in the opposite direction. Sequestration will cut 9.4 percent from every part of the defense budget. These cuts will hit cyber operations, including cybersecurity programs in the Department of Homeland Security.

A Rich Persons Mind-Set




Ever wondered how average rich people actually think. Research shows that it isn't mainly due to money that the average rich person becomes motivated, rather it is the mindset that a rich person follows that allows them to achieve their goals.

Steve Siebold, author of "How Rich People Think," spent nearly three decades, interviewing millionaires around the world to find out what separates them from everyone else.- Cited From Here

Here are 10 simple examples to the mentality in which rich people think.

1. Average people think MONEY is the root of all evil. Rich people believe POVERTY is the root of all evil.

2. Average people think selfishness is a vice. Rich people think selfishness is a virtue.

3. Average people have a lottery mentality. Rich people have an action mentality.

4. Average people think the road to riches is paved with formal education. Rich people believe in acquiring specific knowledge.

5. Average people long for the good old days. Rich people dream of the future.

6. Average people see money through the eyes of emotion. Rich people think about money logically.

7. Average people earn money doing things they don't love. Rich people follow their passion.

8. Average people set low expectations so they're never disappointed. Rich people are up for the challenge.

9. Average people believe you have to DO something to get rich. Rich people believe you have to BE something to get rich.

10. Average people believe you need money to make money. Rich people use other people's money.

[C#] Image Screen Capture [C#]

Here is a nice source code which can enable you to capture your desktop screen. This would be a nice source to take a look at and analyze especially if you are trying to make your own application that will be using this feature. Simply just create a class and add this source code. However I would never recomend copying and pasting source codes that you do see, that necessarily isn't 'learning the code'.

I will be also releasing the source of an application in which you can upload your screen captured image to an image hosting website, so stay tuned.

Online College Loans For You





Have you always ever had the need for a loan? Well in this article I will be speaking to you about the US Department of Education loans.

The US Department of Education focuses on all government aid for those who need financial help to go to college. This department is known for being extremely strict with its proceedings on loan application. You’ll have to be prepared and have all the information prior to applying for a loan. Otherwise you’ll be searching around for forms, and trying to collect all the documentation that you need over and over again. However it is worth it once you complete everything.

The Applications:
When you want to apply for a Federal Loan, you’ll have to fill a form. This form is known as Free Application for Federal Student Aid Form otherwise known as Fafsa. With these forms you’ll have to include a lot of personal and family information that’s necessary for the goverment to consider your application and to calculate the amount of money you’ll be able to request.

With this information supplied to them, that will be thoroughly checked, the department will come to know with how much money the applicant’s family will be able to contribute to his/her education and what the total amount of money he will need. The difference between these numbers will usually be the sum the applicant will be able to request to the department of education.

Qualifications:
These loans do have specific requirements you’ll need to meet in order to get approved. If you fail to meet any of these requirements you’ll probably get declined. However, don’t despair as if you contact the department they’ll probably help you solve the problem. Following is a list of the most significant requirements:

1) US Citizenship

2) Valid Social Security Number

3) Feasible financial Need

4) Eligibility for Higher Education

5) No Defaults or Bankruptcy in credit report

6) No Convictions

7) High Grade Point Average

Different Options
When it comes to the US Department of Education Aid, there are at least three possibilities that can be taken into account: Federal Grants, Student Loans and Student Work Programs.

Grants are basically financial aid that doesn’t have to be paid back, the requirements for this type of loans focus on financial need and inability to obtain finance through other means. Usually, grants are processed on a first come – first served basis.

Student Loans have been explained in the above paragraphs and differ only with regular loans in the length of repayment and interest rate charged that tends to be significantly lower.

Student Work Programs means that the applicant will be working for certain government agencies in order to pay for his education. The job will only take a couple of hours or if a full time job, only part of the salary will be deducted towards the payment of college.

Why Pheonix University?





Well if you are sitting here reading this article you are probably wondering why would phoenix university be a great choice to attend. Not only is it ranked in one of the top 10 largest universities but it also allows you to take a variety of online college courses. Phoenix university main focus isn't just to take incoming freshman but allow for a higher education for those who have already graduated and are looking to advance with their degree and education.

Firstly, Phoenix decided to focus on employed students over 22 years of age. Phoenix founder John Sperling discovered that adult students were given short opportunity choices at many public universities.  Which is why he provided accessible formats beginning in the 1970’s that allowed students to study part-time, completing five or ten courses a year through intensive eight-week sessions. Younger students are now admitted.

Walden University Be Inspired





Have you always desired for an associated or a masters' degree, but never got the chance to visit the doorsteps of the college to get even a college degree? If such is the case, stop worrying; the solution is not far at all from you. Yes, I'm talking about getting an online degree just by sitting at home with complete ease.
Now a days technology in general is rapidly growing. The need for the traditional college classrooms are just not necessary anymore. You can easily earn a degree just by sitting and home right in front of your computer. There are multiple colleges that offer these kinds of opportunities.


Sometimes we can just be to busy with work and family to try and earn a degree. We just don't have the convenience of taking the time out and spending it inside of a classroom. Which is why there are multiple online colleges, a great one would be for example Walden University. Walden is a great online college mainly because it offers many different degree programs and is just so convenience. Definitely a reliable way of getting a degree if time is just not on your side. Walden university consists of these colleges:

  • Richard W. Riley College of Education and Leadership
  • College of Management and Technology
  • College of Health Sciences
  • College of Social and Behavioral Sciences
  • College of Undergraduate Studies

Online College Courses Software Testing





There is no doubt that the IT field is constantly growing. There are just so many topics to cover that necessarily one degree cannot cover the whole area. Which is why sometimes you may end up having to take some extra courses after your bachelors degree. What better way to take these classes other than taking them right at home. Online Classrooms are growing without a doubt. It is defiantly for out convenience especially if we are bombarded with work and other duties.

Software testing is something that is constantly growing in the IT field. However lets not completely negate all the other areas in the IT field. Software testing is something that will always be needed. Well, why is this the case? There's so many vital and important pieces of software out there which have bugs that need to be known or something fatal can go wrong and happen, resulting in damage to the business.


One great service that replicates Online Colleges would be the ILX group. The course ware they provide is very high quality and allows you to learn easily, as if you were in an online college classroom. They even offer a simple little preview/demonstration on how it works.

Programming Paradigm Online College Course






Here is an absolutely free college online course. This is great for people who already have some previous programming experience.This is a great course mainly because it will go ind depth in programming and really give you a well understand of what programming really is. This course goes through a whole variety of programming languages. Sometimes we think that the more programming languages we know the better. However this may not be the case entirely, sometimes understanding the paradigms or programming is what is more important rather then just the syntax alone.

After teaching computer science for over a decade. Once you learn one programming language really well, the rest will just naturally be easy. However taking that first step and actually learning and digging deep into that one programming language is the most difficult step. Once you can overcome this then I can guarantee the rest will be 'cake'.


This course basically outlines and will give you an understanding of C, C++, and Python. All three are amazing programming languages. Especially python which is definitely the future of programming. Definitely a very good course to check out.

Online College Courses (Programming)





Have you always wanted to learn to program but are sick and tired of just sitting at home reading books. Its a lot nicer when you actually have someone teaching you the material and puts a lot less stress on your shoulders. Or sometimes you may not have the money to even afford the tuition for college at that particular moment. We all know how expensive college tuition can be. So I came up with a simple solution. A step by step guide so that you can learn and understand at least the basics of software engineering. Or you can simply get a taste of what software engineering really is. The links below is basically an outline of courses that pertain to software engineering. You can either choose to watch the courses and take the practice tests/exams in sequential order, or you can just visit whichever course you would like to study and watch.



This is basically a free gentle and light introduction to programming and computer science in python. The great thing about this is that its completely free and there are practice problems as well as exams and solutions you can take a look at. Defiantly worth looking into for people who want to understand what computer science is really all about.



Yet again MIT has allowed you and I an opportunity to learn java online easily and free. This course is amazing because all the course documents are available for use. I would recommend this course for anyone who wants to start programming because this course does not require you to have a background in computer science. The teacher is very well at explaining concepts as well. Defiantly worth checking out.




Another great course for learning C++. However I wouldn't recommend this to a complete beginner who wants to learn programming because this course does require some pre-requisite of some programming experience or language. This course would be great for anyone who has completed the java online course and wants to head into C++. Definatly
