µTorrent Connection Setup Guide

    • Setting up a static IP


      Routers
      work by attributing a "dynamic IP" to each computer when it connects to
      the router. Since this IP is dynamic it can, and often does change each
      time. The router selects which IP to attribute from a list of available
      IPs called the DHCP range. This range is expressed as either: 

      Starting IP / ending IP, or Starting IP and number of IPs. 
      (192.154.10.1 to 192.154.10.100 or 192.154.10.1 with 100 IPs
      available). In order to setup a static IP for your computer it is
      important to select one outside of this range in order to avoid it
      being attributed to another computer by the router. Finding out what the
      DHCP range can be hard work since I have no router specific
      instructions to direct you to the correct menu. You'll have to find it
      on your own (you may refer to your router's manual for more
      information).


      To enter the router configuration screens : Windows Start button > Run, type "cmd /k; ipconfig /all" WITHOUT the quotes.



      1. From the DOS window that will open, copy the default gateway number to your web browser and hit enter.
      2. In the login window enter your username / password (if you have not set one try: admin/admin admin/blank blank/admin or even blank/blank)
      3. Navigate the menus and screens until you find the DHCP range.
      4. Since
        many routers have limits on the number of IPs they can handle
        (regardless of the number of computers connected). Reduce the DHCP
        range by one. (Reduce the ending IP by one or reduce the number of IP
        by one). Make a note of the newly available IP (which is outside the
        range); this is what you will use for a static IP further.
      5. Exit the router configuration and follow the instructions at the Portforward Static IP Guide to setup your operating system to use a static ip.

Bullfrog Power: “Taxing our Guilt” at Canadian Freebies, Coupons Canada, Shopping Bargains, Flyers, Contests and Free Samples

We noticed this ongoing discussion and wanted to provide some information about Bullfrog Power to address some of the concerns that have been raised.

Bullfrog Power is actively increasing the supply of renewable electricity in Ontario with the support of its customers. We accomplish this in several ways:

1. Bullfrog Power is directly increasing the supply of renewable electricity in the province, above and beyond the actions of the government. The power that we are bringing online is incremental to the quota the provincial government has set for renewables on the grid by 2010. Bullfrog Power does this in two ways:

- first, it invests in generators to help them build new renewable generation. Without this investment, the generation would not be built. For instance, two new wind turbines were commissioned in the fall of 2006 at the Sky Generation wind farm site on the Bruce Peninsula to service Bullfrog Power customer demand. In early 2007, in partnership with Schneider Power, Bullfrog announced the commissioning of two more new turbines on Manitoulin Island. In the words of Glen Estill, the principal of Sky Generation, at our launch “Our contract with Bullfrog Power allows us to increase our capacity and bring more green power onto the Ontario grid.”

- second, we enter into long-term Power Purchase Agreements with generators for new projects, like Sky Generation’s project. These PPAs give the generators a stable revenue stream and allows them to raise financing that makes new project development viable.

2. Bullfrog is also indirectly increasing the supply of renewables in the province. Bullfrog Power pays its suppliers a premium over the price for regular electricity, which provides them a reasonable return on equity, allowing and incenting them and other developers to build more renewable projects.

3. Bullfrog Power educates the public about renewable electricity and the electricity market in general. One of the very significant challenges in moving forward energy policy in the province is the state of awar

Ruth's Hemp Chia Goodness Cereal : TreeHugger

  • Ruth's Hemp Chia Goodness Cereal is definitely an acquired taste, but once your palate gets over the unusual texture, however, this new raw cereal is a keeper, especially for folks with special dietary needs—and at least one nutritionally challenged writer who often forgets to eat.

Sony announces new pocket camcorder, claims it isn't 'full of stars' | Crave : The gadget blog

    • Sony announces new pocket camcorder, claims it isn't 'full of stars'

      If you ever wanted to videotape your pets fighting to Romanian dance music while on a trampoline, Sony has a new pocket camcorder for you. Sony's NSC-GC1 Net-sharing CAM is targeted specifically at the YouTube crowd, with a low enough price tag and just enough power to throw clips up on the Web. The Net-sharing CAM can shoot video ranging from QVGA (320x240) at 15 frames per second to VGA (640x480) at 30 frames per second. It records to Sony's Memory Stick DUO memory cards, so if you already have a PlayStation Portable or a Sony Cyber-shot digital camera, you're probably set. The included Picture Motion Browser and PMB Portable software helps streamline uploading videos to the Web; instead of going through YouTube and other sites' uploading pages, the software can directly publish your videos to the Web. If you want to shoot more than videos, the Net-sharing CAM also doubles as a 5-megapixel still camera with a built-in flash.
