Music: Powderfinger helps Movember cause

Donations needed

You can join in on fundraising efforts for Movember, even if you’re not growing your own mo’.

Powderfinger are donating $5 for each pre-order of the new album, Golden Rule, to help raise funds for Movember – BUT you need to purchase it from their special link below.

They have also launched their own Movember mo’ growing campaigns and with the links above, you can keep updated on their mo’ progress (or mo gress), even get some mo’ growing tips.

“What’s Movember about?”

Movember helps raise awareness and funds for men’s health – specifically prostate cancer and depression in men.

What many people don’t appreciate is that close to 3,000 men die of prostate cancer each year in Australia and one in eight men will experience depression in their lifetime – many of whom don’t seek help.  More information can be found on the Movember website: au.movember.com

Donations

Whether you pre-order Powderfinger’s album, or just want to donate some cash yourself, get involved! Check out the Powderfinger Mo Space pages – rate them and donate.

I’ll also be keeping track of my some of my friends and their mo’ gress, like Donovan and Dean for a start!

How to Start – or Kickstart – your own Internet business

What about your sales?  With this amount of traffic, how could you possibly lose?

“Loudmouth” commuters warning in WA

Noisy commuters being told to mind their mobile manners

Sources: PerthNow and AMTA

Loudmouth mobile phone users on trains and buses in Western Australia will be targeted in a new campaign to tackle the growing annoyance”

Public transport commuters who are loud on mobile phones and MP3 players may face being kicked off trains & buses in WA.

Wouldn’t we all like to see this rolled out across the nation?

Survey: Top 3 public annoyances on transport

A survey was conducted – here’s the top 3.

  1. Loud mobile phone conversations
    “An overwhelming 90 per cent said loud mobile phone conversations were the most annoying part of their journeys.”
  2. Noisy portable music players
    ” A number spoke passionately about … being forced to listen to … thumping bass music from earphones.”
  3. Ear-piercing polyphonic ringtones

Can I add keypad tones here?  I’d like to ensure that’s on the list.  Who the hell wants to listen to someone’s keypad tones, annoyingly “beep, beep, beeping” out their SMS’s.

Oh and game tones.  As above…

Mind your Mobile Manners

The Australian Mobile Telecommunications Association (AMTA) encourages individuals to use their mobile phones in a responsible manner and to be considerate and aware of situations where using their mobile phone might annoy others.”

Check out the AMTA’s Mind Your Mobile Manners guidelines.

Respect!

Internet addiction rehab

Rehabilitation for Internet addiction

If you think you’re becoming a little addicted to being online, have more virtual or online friends than real-life friends, then don’t despair…

Internet addiction is treatable!

At least if you’re based in China, you can get military-style help: China deals with web addiction

Nanometre wave machines, military formation drills, gruelling exercise regimes and electric shocks are being used to cure China’s ballooning number of internet addicts.”

Sounds fierce – but China is now boasting some 300 Internet addiction treatment centres, so there is help for you yet, perhaps it does involve an international flight though.

Sounds like a great excuse for a holiday to me – although I need no encouraging…

:)
