IBM ThinkPad T61 Stops Working

My new notebook stopped working. That simple, the problem I don't know what might be but I am backing up all my data and information on that. You can use it in the safe mode but not at all in the normal mode. The vista sucks I believe. I also tried using the thinkvantage button and the hard disk fails to passed the tests so probably the problem is the hard disk with some bad sectors or something. The problem might also be from the last program I installed (utorrent) which was three months ago. So probably the only reason is the hard disk failure. I am shocked that my old laptop which was a basic Toshiba is still working after three years without any hard drive failures but the ThinkPad one is having problem after only 3 months and with all the protection they say to provide for the hard drive.

So till talking to the support and getting more in detail do not buy any ThinkPad notebooks.

Call Option

Options are the second level of trading when you get into the stock market. You can simple sell call options on your owned stocks (some brokers allow you to sell options without having the stocks in hand thought, that way the risk is so high that you don't want to take the risk as a naive person). The selling of call option is like renting a home and hoping its value goes up (or in some case goes down and you make money on your rent.). I have found a bunch of tutuorials online, videos, texts and much much more but I liked the one below a lot. After seeing this one I put my first call option sell order and hope to cash some money.

The first one covers the basic of call option while the second one helps you to handle more sophisticated ways of dealing with options and getting to know it better.











Scream Bloody Murder - A report by Christiane Amanpour

Christian Amanpour

Christian Amanpour put a report together after the terrorist attacks of Mumbai. The report talks about the history of genocide and begins with the introduction of the word of genocide to the word by a man. It covers shocking stories you haven't even heard of through the past century that could have been stopped but no action had taken place.

This is the beginning part of the story as I can find it on youtube. There is also a webpage dedicated to Screem Bloody Murder on the CNN's website. You can find more information there.







The following is the official description of the video.

"In a two-hour special report, CNN chief international correspondent Christiane Amanpour will report on the recurring nightmare of genocide and the largely unknown struggles of the heroes who witnessed evil - and "screamed bloody murder" for the international community to stop it.

Ms. Amanpour said, "One of the people we look back on is Raphael Lemkin, who . . . coined the term genocide specifically after the Armenian Genocide and put that word right there in our vocabulary and lobbied very, very hard for the Convention that would define that word."

The program touches briefly on the Armenian Genocide in the context of Lemkin's outrage that the murder of one person is a capital crime, but the murder of an entire people was not defined as such.
