Fluoride operating income of 819 million last year

Funds because of concern by the concept of lithium Fluoride (002,407, the closing price 81.91 yuan), in the March 29 released the first annual report since its listing. However, the company has raised two super project will be put into operation this year, product involving lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium battery power two areas, growth can be expected.dell laptop battery Project to begin production within two lithium

Fluoride operating income of 819 million last year, rose 5.96%; but only 48.35 million yuan net profit, down 39.50%. Basic earnings per share of 0.50.

Income does not increase the company profits last year, explained: Last year, the main raw material prices rose in varying degrees, although the product sales price go up, but the rising prices of raw materials costs led to operating margin is greater than the rate of increase in operating income; In addition, Foreign demand is still insufficient appreciation of the adverse impact of the export business.

Despite the poor performance, but Fluoride is still a hot subject on the secondary market; Wind Information statistics also show that as of the end of institutions to hold shares Fluoride 1003, accounting for the proportion of float caps reached 37.15%, compared with three 7.61 percentage points higher than the quarterly statements.

The layout in the field of lithium batteries is the main reason to attract institutional attention. Report, the company spent 129 million yuan of funds raised over the construction of "200 tons of lithium hexafluorophosphate" project following the announcement in January this year,Dell Inspiron 1720 battery product line basically built into the trial production stage, the report said the project will be fully completed this year. The reporter learned from the researchers at the project is currently at 50% capacity utilization is about all of this year can be produced, the annual output of 140 tons is expected to scale; to the current selling price per ton more than 300,000 yuan, 140 tons of production corresponding to at least 42 million yuan revenue.

In addition, the company announced in November last year, raised funds to invest in another ultra - "Ah annual output of 100 million Li-ion battery power project", the original plan of the construction period for the December 2010 ~ June 2012. But report shows that a production capacity of 50 million Ah put into operation in the first half of this year, compared to the previous survey researchers learned that the company went ahead of time.

Lithium-intensive projects will be launched

March 1 Fluoride equity incentive published the draft, the exercise price determined as 69.98 yuan; industry mainly in the threshold assessment base for 2010, 2011 and 2014, respectively, four-year net profit growth of not less than 30%, 60 %, 120% and 180%.

Lithium, the 100 million Ah lithium battery powered lithium manganese-based projects, is currently in pilot stage, will be fully completed in June next year. Another pile 3.44 billion total investment over the project raised, according to the original plan, will be completed in December this year, a building, built in the electrolyte 5,000 tons / year, lithium hexafluorophosphate 500 tons / year, battery grade lithium fluoride 200 tons / , the electronic grade hydrofluoric acid, 2,500 tons / year production line; in 2012, is the second phase of construction, including 5,000 tons / year electrolyte production lines and 500 tons / year of lithium hexafluorophosphate production line; 2013 Phase III, electrolyte will build 10,000 tons / year,dell Inspiron 1525 battery lithium hexafluorophosphate 1,000 tons / year, battery grade lithium fluoride 200 tons / year, electronic grade hydrofluoric acid, 2,500 tons / year production line.

Its main industry, the current fluoride, hi Pan Northeast winds securities analysts think this year will benefit from the current trend in product prices; 2011 the company will add approximately 30,000 tons of aluminum fluoride production this year is expected this part of the revenue and profitability will be increased.

Nuclear leak causes storm in Tuen salts grab salt lithium battery as investment

A ridiculous controversy. From the rush of salt, to salt withdrawal, only two days! All this only shows that when people reach a certain extreme emotions when errors arise. As understanding of the industry, understand the market, perhaps it is the opportunity that had not been discovered "gold mine",dell laptop battery or not too concerned about man's "gold mine" of the opportunity!

Not as concerned about the rush of salt lithium battery

In mid-March, due to leakage of nuclear radiation in Japan triggered a burst of panic. March 16 afternoon rush throughout China lift the salt controversy; 17 peak. Salt, less than 2 dollars on weekdays, actually pushed up to 10 yuan; some consumers and even store 30 bags of salt. The Yunnan Salt March 17 to limit the opening also therefore, throughout the day even more firmly sealed in the limit board. In the afternoon, dell Latitude LS battery, dell 2834T battery, dell 4834T battery, dell Inspiron 1520 battery, dell Inspiron 1521 battery, I asked the staff to the Yunnan Salt, and they do not understand that. Because as a professional or have common sense, know - this is a farce. In my opinion, with its rush of salt, we could pause to find the real beneficiaries of the nuclear radiation.

Why? There are two reasons. First, the supply of nuclear radiation on almost no salt. China is the largest mineral salt. It is the last million years of evolution of the terrestrial sea change generated in the process, the original water is constantly evaporating, drying and turned into salt. If these salts are also problems, the global land already affected by nuclear radiation. Where are you spared? What you eat and drink?

Of course, as with the salt, iodine tablets were berserk. This is not just a masterpiece of Chinese Americans, Koreans are the same. dell Latitude LS battery, This is a human decision, to protect themselves and avoid risk. Even he did not know where the risks, but also pushed many people place.

Second, and salt affected by nuclear radiation, the new energy vehicles affected even more. Many factories closed in Japan, leading to a global new energy vehicles (including hybrid cars) battery supply into the problem. Such as the United States, Ford openly expressed fears that Japan's new energy vehicles battery supply.

If you know how powerful lithium battery industry in Japan, you will deeply understand the concerns of the Ford. The world's largest producer of lithium battery industry in Japan, China and South Korea. Japan is both the first commercial implementation of the state lithium batteries, lithium batteries is the largest country market share. About 67% of the global pool of material of lithium production in Japan.

Perhaps you do not understand before how powerful lithium battery industry in Japan, but you should be concerned over Japan's exports to China Rare Earth hold complain. When A State jumped out to complain about another country restrict the amount of mineral exports, then A must be the country's downstream sector is well developed. dell 2834T battery, This is the lithium-based downstream industries, new energy.

Nuclear radiation, work stoppages that began to show the advantages of lithium batteries in China. Even if the nuclear radiation incident resolved, we will consider the global car firms diversify risk, lithium batteries from different vendors of the corresponding products. Of course, China will become the global car firms are one of the goals. After all, China already has a certain amount of soft power. Compared with the year 2000, China Li-ion battery industry for all to see. Before 2000, the global lithium production base by the Japanese monopoly; now China to be among the world's major suppliers of one of the lithium battery industry.

Lithium battery space

If the only alternative to Japan, the production bases of China Li-ion battery space is not as tempting. However, with crude oil prices are rising relative price advantage of new energy vehicles began to appear, the market demand for lithium batteries began to expand. Can even say that the world is entering a period of rapid development of lithium batteries. Beginning in 2010, the global car companies and they have significantly increased the proportion of lithium car is expected from 2010 to 2013 is a fast growing lithium battery electric vehicles, vehicle sales in 2013 will reach 2.26 million lithium batteries, 2015 reached about 371 million.

U.S., China have launched a new energy car allowance policy. In the United States, Obama 825 billion U.S. dollars in economic stimulus plan, and supporting new energy vehicles became a priority. Such as the United States will provide 20 billion dollars in bonuses and loans provided for battery research; provide 4 billion U.S. dollars,dell 4834T battery, federal and local governments for the purchase of new energy vehicles; to provide 10 billion dollars to upgrade the national grid, and ultimately meet the 100 million PHEV charging requirements. In order to stimulate individuals to buy new energy vehicles, in September 2008, the U.S. Congress to extend tax incentives to invest or even to 2016, the share of consumers PHEV 2500-7500 U.S. dollars to give tax breaks.

Production bases, and a series of space to expand the market backdrop, China Li-ion battery industry the opportunity to come!dell Latitude LS battery, dell 2834T battery, dell 4834T battery, dell Inspiron 1520 battery, dell Inspiron 1521 battery, You only need to focus on product quality. If the product quality clearance, do not worry about the needs of lithium products.

Now you go back and look back with no fundamentals supporting the salt, iodine compared to how much lithium battery business opportunity? Indeed, there are some smart people concerned about the lithium battery industry last week in a timely manner - such as the torch high, Keli far, Shanshangufen and so on. Torch High-tech in the last week rose more than 7%.

In 2010 the company achieved sales of 794 million yuan, compared with 2009 growth of 5.24% over the same period, operating profit of 49.4119 million yuan, compared with 2009 decreased 40.55% over the same period in 2010,dell laptop battery the company achieved net profit of 48.3543 million yuan, down 39.50% in 2010 company to achieve EPS of 0.44 yuan, basically in line with our expectations.
Meanwhile, the company announced a 2010 profit distribution plan, to December 31, 2010 as the base total share capital of 10,700 shares,dell 1G222 battery, dell BAT3151L8 battery,dell Latitude X300 battery, dell W0465 battery, dell Inspiron 2000 battery, 10 shares to all shareholders were distributed every 2.00 yuan (tax included), totaling 21.4 million yuan of dividends. The company plans 2010 capital reserve into share capital as follows: to 31 December 2010 the total share capital of 10,700 shares of the company as the base to the capital reserve into share capital, 10 shares for every 3 shares, for a total increase by transferring 32.1 million shares.

Sharp rise in raw materials caused by gross margin decline in net profit fell a certain extent

March 29, 2011, Fluoride release 2010 Annual Report. In 2010 the company achieved sales of 794 million yuan, compared with 2009 growth of 5.24% over the same period, operating profit of 49.4119 million yuan, compared with 2009 decreased 40.55% over the same period in 2010, the company achieved net profit of 48.3543 million yuan, down 39.50% in 2010 company to achieve EPS of 0.44 yuan, basically in line with our expectations.

Fluoride in 2010 the company net profit fell sharply principal business is the company leading product raw materials (including fluorite, sulfuric acid, aluminum hydroxide, sodium fluoride, caustic soda, etc.) showed different degrees of price increases, especially fluorite prices increase in more than 30% greater impact on corporate profits. dell 1G222 battery, Our products are mainly used in aluminum industry, aluminum industry by the State macro-control policies, sales price and quantity of fluoride present periodic fluctuations.

Highest market share in the first

The company cryolite, aluminum fluoride annual production capacity of 12 million tons, accounting for 8.51% of global capacity, domestic production capacity of 17.65%. Among them, the cryolite capacity of 60,000 tons / year, accounting for about 23.08% of total capacity of similar products, accounting for 35.29% of total capacity of similar products; capacity of 60,000 tons of aluminum fluoride / year, accounting for the total global similar products production capacity of 5.22%, accounting for 11.76% of total capacity of similar products.

Enhance the company's equity incentive team cohesiveness

Introduced the company's core equity incentive plan to enhance cohesion. Equity incentive plans 300-million to be granted stock options, all of the line of the right to increase the share capital of 300 million shares, representing approximately 2.8% of the existing shares of the company.dell BAT3151L8 battery Options granted to company executives, and 64 8 core technology (business) and some middle managers. Incentive core 64 are located in technology, marketing, production, administration, finance, auditing, security, new energy companies, logistics and human multiple systems, and technology incentives and the market system by the largest number of 22 and 12, respectively , reflecting the company's technology and market attention. Overall, the company's core technical staff has been taken seriously, and boosting the company cohesion.

Company equity incentive vesting conditions more easily achieved. Under the equity incentive plan, equity incentive valid for 5 years, of which 1 year waiting period, assessment conditions for 2011 and 2014, respectively, in 2010 net profit up 30%, 60%, 120%, dell 1G222 battery, dell BAT3151L8 battery,dell Latitude X300 battery, dell W0465 battery, dell Inspiron 2000 battery,180%, or an average annual compound growth rate of 29%, results in 2010 as the company is very low base, the next few years, the traditional capacity expansion fluoride business growth and profitability brought steady progress in lithium profitable business growth, we believe that equity incentives are more easily implemented.

Secondary market investment advice

Company's traditional business of fluoride will be substantially improved profitability, with the mass production of lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium battery business share of total revenues and profits will be increased gradually. We forecast the company in 2011 to 2013 EPS was 1.20 yuan, 2.62 yuan, 3.55 yuan, the company short-term high valuation, but given the lithium hexafluorophosphate as the project of production, will bring the company to enhance performance and valuation levels, dell Latitude X300 battery, We maintain our overweight rating company

Tianjin Bicycle Industry Productivity Center Executive Director Ji Xing Hua March 30 interview that, according to the China Bicycle Association, the current lead-acid battery electric bicycle occupy the domestic market share of 97.5%, less than 3% market share of lithium batteries. "Demonstrates the proportion of the poor spread of two batteries and the unbalanced nature of the market dosage, reflects China's true level of electric bicycles and development limitations." Xing Ji Hua said.
It is understood, 48V lead-acid batteries for the price of about 400 yuan, while the ordinary 36V lithium-ion battery pack for the price of the thousand or so, a huge spread lead-acid batteries to drive the market to tilt, electric bicycle electric bicycle lithium and lithium Product prices hit the threshold of a hard sell.
To promote the development of electric vehicles, the introduction of electric vehicles in China subsidy support policies; Currently, lithium is also a low-carbon products, electric bicycle products, there is no similar subsidies. In this regard, Xing Ji Hua proposal to increase Lithium-ion batteries support efforts. "If the electric bike's 36V lithium-ion battery giving 400 yuan subsidy per 60,000 yuan subsidies for electric vehicles can be set to support 150 or 150 lithium lithium battery electric vehicle development. In accordance with the price of 2500 yuan per bike basis, 6 ten thousand yuan subsidies will create 375,000 yuan in sales, to open the lithium and lithium electric scooter sales, driven electric bicycle products significantly enhance the level of

Lithium battery plate: usher in new opportunities to do more

Although the A-share market on Friday, bounced back, but hard to change a single week downward trend in shock. However, once the weak lithium plate was again active in the last week, Jiangsu Guotai (002,091), Shanshangufen (600,884), dell W0465 battery, when l Technology (300,073) and other related stocks were down in the stock market trend during tough.

Lithium battery plate active recently, mainly due to the impact of two messages.

First there were reports that in 2020 China's total production of new energy vehicles will be sold 5 million. This figure depicts the future of new energy vehicles a bright future, and therefore opened the lithium batteries of high growth.

Second, the lithium battery industry structure after the earthquake in Japan or will change greatly. Japan is the lithium battery industry, the traditional power, lithium batteries produce more than 50% of the world. Earthquakes, tsunamis and nuclear accidents on the Japanese homeland lithium-ion battery industry a serious blow. China in the anode material, electrolyte and other fields already have a certain competitiveness, it can be a certain substitution effect.

The message means that the lithium battery industry faces two major new development opportunities, will inevitably drive the funds from various quarters to re-valuation of the lithium plate to form a new buying power.

Meanwhile, the lithium battery plates in this year's performance has lagged behind the market, the two positive factors mentioned above, means that the lithium batteries is expected to get a new plate-than-expected growth performance of the kinetic energy,dell 1G222 battery, dell BAT3151L8 battery,dell Latitude X300 battery, dell W0465 battery, dell Inspiron 2000 battery, so as to provide a new rise in stock price momentum.

Investors can focus on two types of stocks: First, break the pattern of standing industry point of view, the domestic lithium industry remains short board, divide, lithium hexafluorophosphate core products such as lack of technical support, has been subject to import restriction. dell Inspiron 2000 battery, Downstream of the strong demand in recent years to promote related products, technology research breakthrough, industry trends are more optimistic, so you can divide the Fosugufen production, production of lithium hexafluorophosphate Jiangsu Cathay Pacific, Hong waiting for attention. Second, the rapid expansion of production capacity is expected to become the global lithium industry in Japan after the earthquake of high-quality alternative enterprises, such as when the rise and Technology, China Baoan, Shanshangufen, also deserves a positive track

How to "Battery Calibration"

The battery is more than one correction method, there are usually three ways: using BIOS, the battery calibration procedures, calibration and the use of artificial means third-party batteries battery calibration software. Here mainly to talk about the first two correction methods.

Tips: do not recommend using third-party battery calibration software. Dell 312-0058 battery As for the reason, you first need to install third-party software, not the first two is simple; Second, in fact, the principle behind the correction is similar, a unique third-party software and not too many places, but also a potential security risk. Therefore, to be completed by the first two methods the case of the battery calibration is not recommended to use third-party software.

Standard calibration method: using books in the BIOS battery calibration function

Many brands of notebook computers which are integrated in the BIOS battery calibration procedures, Dell Latitude X200 battery, Dell 8U443 battery, Dell Latitude X200 battery, Dell 312-0058 battery the general statement in English is called "Battery Calibration", or "proof battery." Directly into the notebook BIOS battery calibration operation can be done, here for Dell laptops, for example, talk about how simple, similar to the operation of other books.

step 1: boot, boot screen appears, press ¡¾F2¡¿ to enter BIOS menu; through the left and right arrow keys, choose to enter Power menu.

step 2: enter the Power menu, you can see the "Start Battery Calibration" option, select it and press the Enter key to execute.

step 3: when the screen turns blue, and English prompted to plug in the laptop's power adapter to charge the battery.Dell Latitude X200 battery Such as the battery is full, the screen and prompts the user to disconnect the power adapter. Continued after the start of notebook battery discharge until the battery depletion

step 4: This process will take some time, such as automatic shutdown after the battery runs out, and then connect the power adapter to charge the battery, but do not boot. Such as fully charged (charging indicator goes out), the battery calibration process is completed.

Edit Comment: This operation is more official way to the battery calibration, the whole process takes about 4-5 hours, more time-consuming. If you find that your laptop battery did not take long, like a few months, life as the original, and the BIOS with this feature books, I suggest to implement it.

In fact, how to make good use of laptop batteries DELL XPS M1330 battery, how to extend their use of time and the use of life and other issues, no doubt troubled by the majority of laptop users in mind a problem, the use of laptop computer batteries have a variety of methods and techniques, which requires us to usually use more learning and application.

(A) fast to sleep

When using a laptop temporarily, in order to save Dell Inspiron 6400 battery power, we can set the power management program,Dell 8U443 battery allowing the system to sleep after a period of time, but longer or shorter will have to wait a few minutes, there is no way to make laptop computer system immediately enter the sleep state?

The notebook computer system into hibernation for a quick and easy method is to directly turn off the display. Press the display is only little effort to connect the notebook to sleep immediately and effectively conserve DELL XPS M1530 battery energy. When you need to re-use it, simply open the display, the system will automatically return to the state before the operation.

(B) of the screen saving mode

TFT screen is the largest notebook computer power components, in order to reduce its use of the DELL Studio 1537 battery when the power consumption, notebook manufacturers have devised ingenious schemes, but in general are based on the lower screen brightness,Dell Latitude X200 battery, Dell 8U443 battery, Dell Latitude X200 battery, Dell 312-0058 battery or even off the screen method.

In the part of the notebook computer power management settings you can customize the brightness of the screen, most laptops can be a particular shortcut key adjusts the screen brightness, generally 6 to 8-level brightness adjustment.

(C) energy-saving settings

Desktop using alternating current, most people may not be the computer attached great importance to energy-saving features,Dell Latitude X200 battery but need to use DELL Studio 1535 batterynotebook computers, the use of energy-saving features should be taken seriously. How to design computer hardware more energy-saving, this is not the user to solve the problem. Users can do is set the computer to effectively use energy-saving options.

Panel, chip hardest hit

"The specific impact of earthquakes on the supply and demand, really can not say. However, the procurement and supply chain really is our current top priority every day concern." Yesterday, the world's third largest panel Enterprises subsidiary Chi Mei Optoelectronics of Taiwan South The Wang Chao in Shanghai on the "First Financial Daily" said.

Such as Wang Chao, dell 312-0625 battery IT industry chain of people, most of the past few days talking about the topic of "Japan's earthquake." Most people said that the basic will not be much impact, watching the mainstream position.

Panel industry: waiting for rebuild

Wang Chao explained that the production of panels of material upstream part of more than 100 kinds of products, as long as a material supply problems, the panel can not ship to.

100 kinds of materials, at least close to 50% require procurement from Japan, including glass, colored light group and so on. Wang Chao said that each product has at least three suppliers can be replaced. Moreover, the existing material reserves to meet the needs of nearly a month, so far has not been seriously affected production.

"Reconstruction fast, then no problem, but the reconstruction time is a problem, then push back." dell 0XR693 battery Wang Chao said.

AUO opponents seem straightforward. Yesterday, AUO executive vice president, said Peng double wave, the current can be observed that the earthquake on anisotropic conductive adhesive (ACF) is relatively large, but Japanese companies have tried to resume production.

Taiwan Industrial Technology Research Institute released a "Japan-related industries in Taiwan quake impact assessment report" shows that the anisotropic conductive adhesive market, Hitachi into more than 50% market share, Samsung, LGD, AUO, CMO, Sharp Five large panel, Hitachi Chemical used the ratio of the ACF more than four percent. Currently, the company of a plant shutdown.

Hitachi Chemical halted if the world will face a panel, "famished" risk.

In addition to the plight of a shortage of ACF, the LCD panel manufacturing process of the exposure equipment factory Nikon and Canon factories are located in Miyagi Prefecture and Tochigi Prefecture, and other hard-hit, which will form a panel of industry.

BOE official said, Hitachi Chemical, JX Nippon Mining is the BOE's upstream suppliers, is less clear by the damage in these factories, but affect short-term electronic materials became inevitable.

Wang Chao said that at present, "the world's only company to determine the affected panel is IPS Alpha, Sharp has not be affected."

IPS Alpha ago by Hitachi, Panasonic, Toshiba jointly set up, it is original in Japan, Shigeru Chiba City,dell GW240 battery, dell RN873 battery, dell XR693 battery, dell 0XR693 battery, dell 312-0625 battery 6 Line was significantly earthquake. Sharp's production base in central and southern Taiwan, in addition to a plant automatically shut down during the earthquake, followed by resumption of production,dell XR693 battery has not been more affected.

Chip industry: are emergency

To worry about the fact that the semiconductor industry, is located northeast of Shin-Etsu Chemical of Japan severely affected, it SUMCO with another Japanese company occupies more than 50% of global shipments of semiconductor silicon. At present, the two companies are limited production, including Shin-Etsu Semiconductor Shirakawa factory has ceased.

Whether the local semiconductor companies will be subjected to pressure? SMIC CEO Dr. Wang responded yesterday that Japan is the material, equipment, accessories to, the chip supply is no problem but at the moment, the company has inventory, you can spend some time, but the equipment due to transport problems, to be delayed a week.

Texas Instruments stakeholders are frankly stated that the company suffered a major loss of factory north of Tokyo, is expected to reduce the revenue the next two quarters, returned to full-load delivery capacity until September.

However, iSuppli analyst À³¶÷½ÜÀûÄÚ¿Ë that this impact, the semiconductor industry in the next quarter are likely to show "earthquake consequences."

IT on behalf of the industry is also being put to test. OEM dick Flextronics vice president of high-tech headquarters of the East Kai Shang in Shanghai yesterday on the "First Financial Daily" said, the company has many facilities and personnel in Japan soon after the earthquake to get in touch, less affected by the earthquake. However,dell RN873 battery he frankly stated that the supply chain is very important, is being assessed individually.

Price: Business ethics test

Tight in the end supply chain, prices of related products have conducted what effect?

The day before yesterday, China Taiwan region of flash memory chips, professional research firm DRAMeXchange's DRAM exchange in the spot price system showed that all the meteoric rise of all prices arrows, flash memory chip prices rose, the two global giants including Samsung and Hynix in a Spot particles 16G products rose 22.09%, respectively, 13.81%, creating the biggest gain in months.

This information has triggered a number of brands in mainland China, ahead of companies began stocking channel, part of the Computer City, or even grab a small cargo agents.

Panel prices seem to expect the panel makers. 15, executive vice president of AUO, said Peng double-wave, panel prices have been at a low level for some time, the earthquake caused problems in the upstream supply of chemical materials, tight panel supply will become the second quarter, panel quotes expected to follow the rise.

"In the first quarter, due to high expectations last year, the panel industry oversupply, dell GW240 battery prices fell a lot in the second quarter is expected to rebound." Zhang Yu, vice president of BOE is expected to double wave surprisingly consistent with Peng.

The past two days, the downstream terminal business, channel business for the price seemed very "enthusiastic." Some electronic markets, memory cards, USB flash drives and some cameras have started to price increases.

No large appliances, including television product price signs, Suning Appliance relevant sources, dell GW240 battery, dell RN873 battery, dell XR693 battery, dell 0XR693 battery, dell 312-0625 battery the specific impact has not felt, because the terminal from the upstream to downstream, a process. Moreover, many home appliances are produced locally, usually a large number of spares stocking.

Luo Qingqi appliance industry experts said the price is not necessarily the manufacturers to act more like a downstream channel sometimes took the opportunity to drive up the price action. Last week, the mail sent to this newspaper, he had just criticized the recent statements appliance prices. He believes that, despite the impact of inflation, but price is only wishful thinking of some home appliances business, exposed their philosophy on the serious problem of "material on the CD."

BatteryMon laptop battery test software

BatteryMon laptop battery status is a small software to view, for those without built-in power management chip machine, the software will undoubtedly help a lot of very helpful, for example, it can display the design capacity of the battery discharge curve, discharge voltage, Dell HP297 battery etc. data, which does not own much to make up for the lack of power management software models.

After installation, the software will display BatteryMon the desktop icon, double-click the icon to run the software, the software running interface is as follows: Click START after, BatteryMon will automatically check the battery charge and discharge status, and automatically plotted curves to tell you charging current situation, which is very convenient, for example, you want to buy a second hand laptop computer batteries, then how can we discover in the shortest period of time the performance of this cell to which the present?

Discharge curve will help you busy, why what? A good performance because the battery will discharge has a very smooth curve, down a grid for each time are probably the same, if you buy second-hand battery discharge when the sudden decline has, then no doubt, this battery life almost, to replace it go to replace it, this is the BatteryMon discharge curve function can bring to everyone's convenience, of course, said that when the case is discharged, the charging time can be used to discharge the same curve function, in general, the charge should be a smooth curve, but one thing to note, when the battery capacity of up to 90%, the outside world into a small current to power will continue to charge the battery, then in the last 10% of the electricity charge counties will be very straight, and will continue for a time on such a situation before that the activity of this battery is still good in very good state of charge and discharge, and vice versa should be noticed.

Another very distinctive feature is that the software can see the design of laptop battery capacity,dell Inspiron 1526 battery current charge capacity and full capacity, this notebook previously only IBM can do it, then using this software, any laptop can be light easy to see that the battery capacity loose situation. Generally marked with the back of the battery design capacity of the battery, which is compared with our guidance, first of all the parameters back after Aspect capacity values, such as the author of this battery nominal 1900mWh, and then see BatteryMon battery option value information is also 1900mWh, which is basically that this battery is no problem, no less than the nominal value of the problem, It is important to note that this software has a small BUG, ​​is just when to start the installation design capacity of the battery will often show great, but after a few full charge and discharge can be displayed properly, and this little problem we also need attention, as I do not like the beginning of always thought I accounted for cheap , and bought a high capacity battery, in fact, after the battery is fully charge and discharge times will show the correct values.

In addition to displaying beyond design capacity, this battery can also display the current battery capacity, users can be very clear understanding of the battery discharge situation. Actually, the most important point is that the software can display the battery's full charge capacity, which is very useful, if a design capacity of the battery is fully charge and discharge 1900mWh after several full charge only 1700mWh capacity,dell Inspiron 1521 battery, Dell Inspiron 1720 battery,dell Inspiron 1525 battery, dell Inspiron 1526 battery, Dell HP297 battery then very possible, this battery life is almost, if the BATTERY INFORMATION software like IBM in the show, this battery will be displayed by the color status of the battery life, the battery has signs of aging. If you bought a new battery, it is likely to exceed the design capacity of 2000mWh or higher capacity,dell Inspiron 1525 battery which is a normal state, the battery is the reason why a consumer, the consumption of battery capacity is a very important expression.

The main feature of this software is that the two points mentioned above to also truly do not PM chips and software to help models achieve an important purpose of the battery performance of the state view, the following to say is that some small details enriched by the subsection at the software. First, support for up to four batteries at the same time BatteryMon view, and can be displayed separately the case of each battery, which is for those who can support multi-block model provides support for the battery. In addition BatteryMon can show the chemical composition of a piece of the battery to help you understand your battery features. The temperature of batteries is also very useful to detect, how to better detect the temperature of batteries into the best way to maintain the battery, this battery can always show the battery temperature to help you to maintain, but the software of this function is only effective for some brands of batteries, because some of the battery management chip to read the data in different ways, but the basic model can be read by the mainstream.

In addition the software can also verify your machine's charging circuit is normal, so as to effectively protect your battery. Normal charging circuit when the battery is full, the battery management chip will automatically cut the battery, to separate from the AC power supply, battery as a backup power supply use, how to verify this point, in fact, can achieve such BatteryMon purposes. You can look at, when fully charged, charging indicator light has been extinguished, when, Charge rate value, when the discharge time, this value is negative, that is discharged, when the charging time, this value will become positive, indicating is charging, then when fully charged, when what is shown here, where? Oh, Dell Inspiron 1720 battery right, shown here as 0, which shows what what? No doubt, this fully illustrated, when the charging action is completed when the battery is not charging action.

Well, the function of a single compact enough to explain the software, but it can certainly help to our not so simple, how? Not fitted with the software to detect your battery bar.
Some lithium-ion batteries is equipped with laptop computers, the use of smart battery systems such as the SBS technology to accurately measure battery life, so use them to worry some. Although the lithium-ion battery has many advantages, but to extend battery life and maintain long time power supply, but also need to master some professional charge method.

Bought a new lithium-ion battery in the initial use, to the 3 full charge and discharge the battery fully charged at least once a power, then power exhausted, repeated three times before use. To activate the chemicals inside the battery, the electrochemical reaction inside the battery into the best condition for use in the future that can charge that is used freely, but within a month to ensure that the battery must be a complete discharge, so that the depth of discharge can stimulate the activation of the battery performance, battery life plays a key role. If more than 3 months the battery is not used again until the same should also be carried out with the new battery charge and discharge completely 3 times to make sure to activate the battery.

If you use nickel-metal hydride batteries, which must control the charge time, should be careful not to frequent over-charging, otherwise it will shorten the battery life. In addition, the NiMH batteries should be fully discharged before charging, charging should also be fully in charge, and in normal use before,dell Inspiron 1521 battery, but also required to complete 3 full charge and discharge.

Most users accustomed to using a laptop computer each time, plug the AC power supply, very little battery-powered laptop computers. In fact, every month should be at least one or two batteries to power, the battery completely run out, connect the AC one is full. Remember this one, for charging batteries, the battery runs out and then filled with useful and harmless, because the notebook computer lithium-ion batteries used in certain inertia effect for a long time not to use lithium-ion loss of activity would need to re-activation. When the notebook computer using the AC in the room when it is best to remove the battery, so it often in a state of charge. Best off when charging laptop, the battery can be fully charged, unplug the power not to charge half-way.dell Inspiron 1521 battery, Dell Inspiron 1720 battery,dell Inspiron 1525 battery, dell Inspiron 1526 battery, Dell HP297 battery Charging, should be 30 minutes before use.

In addition, because the battery is easy to run out of power, most laptops and only a battery, therefore, part of the pen to the computer manufacturers developed a fast charge feature that lets users run out of power after the fastest additional power . For example, Dell notebook computer to have ExpressCharge feature, you can recharge in one hour more than 90%. Why not 100%? Because according to charge and discharge characteristics of lithium batteries, if the fast charge to 100% frequently, battery life is greatly shortened, so the back of 10% will be slow before fast charge to charge to extend battery life .

No such function for a regular laptop, the best way is to charge off, charge off shorter than the 30% start charging the charging time.

Shenzhen companies have been looking for alternatives

"Japanese lithium battery materials are better, and these raw materials production base is located in the earthquake affected areas of basic plant or near the disaster area, estimated by the greatest impact. We are also considering alternative raw materials."dell Inspiron 1520 battery, Yesterday, President of Shenzhen BAK Battery Assistant Lau Tak on the "First Financial Daily" said.

In fact, the affected may be more than notebook lithium batteries, as well as digital cameras, LCD panels, etc., and is selling Apple iPhone4 and iPad2 could face supply problems. Japan is the world leader in electronic materials countries, many electronic materials dominated by Japanese manufacturers, the global market share of over Qi Cheng. Although most electronic materials plant is not affected, but may also be due to power failure or lack of production, thereby affecting the downstream production of the electronics industry.

Laptop Battery: a greater impact

Taiwan's Digitimes research report, although the Sanyo, Panasonic and Sony notebook lithium batteries in the global market share, are being South Korea LG, Samsung, and extrusion manufacturers in China, and has been declining, Japan Furukawa Electric, Hitachi Chemical,dell Inspiron 2000 battery, dell Latitude LS battery, dell 2834T battery, dell 4834T battery, dell Inspiron 1520 battery, JX Nippon Mining and Mitsubishi Materials Chemistry 4 four major manufacturers of lithium battery materials, accounts for the global market share of 55.9%. Four lithium battery materials are sub-divide, cathode material, dell 4834T battery, anode material and electrolyte.

In this earthquake, in addition to the Sony plant closures, the Furukawa Electric, Hitachi Chemical, JX Nippon Mining and Mitsubishi Chemical have factories located in or near the disaster stricken areas.

Among them, the Furukawa Electric lithium electrolytic copper foil occupies 55% market share, while its factory in Tochigi Prefecture hit this city; Hitachi Chemical is the world's largest manufacturers of lithium battery anode materials, up to 50% market share, and its factories in Ibaraki Prefecture; JX Nippon Mining is the world's major manufacturers of lithium battery cathode materials, the factories will Ibaraki; Mitsubishi Chemical holds 25% of lithium battery electrolyte raw material market share, there are some factories in Ibaraki Prefecture.

Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute study reported that although no in Ibaraki Prefecture, the center of the quake, but five to six of the seismic intensity, or will production be affected, and damage to equipment and buildings.

"Now the more important standard is the laptop battery life, with materials made out of batteries in Japan, stable." Lau Hau pointed out that although BAK Battery is also considering alternatives, but the final product but also through customer testing.

While the world still a little notebook market over-supply of lithium batteries, including BAK Battery included are some stocks,dell 2834T battery, but by now the inventory estimates, digestion is completed within a two-March, Liu Hau said, adding that the next few months notebook lithium battery supply shortages may occur, lithium batteries are the main production equipment from Japan.

BAK Battery, HP, Dell, Lenovo and other notebook computer giant International lithium battery supply chain, the current market share in the notebook lithium battery connected Jinliang Cheng.

BYD Battery Business Unit, said the person in charge, the Japanese earthquake will affect the supply of laptop batteries, but lithium had little effect on the mobile phone. Because the basic mobile phone has been made of lithium battery materials.

iPhone parts: three into the Japanese Procurement

However, electronic materials, panic continues to spread upstream.

"IPhone and iPad's component suppliers will be a problem." Foxconn, a supplier of "First Financial Daily" said, iPhone and iPad many fine manufacturers sourcing components from Japan, so Apple's head of Asia-related have been flown to Japan, the coordination of supply problems.

However, Foxconn has not confirmed the claim.

Gu Wenjun said iSuppli analyst, Apple's dependence on Japanese parts and components has always been high, in addition to Toshiba's NAND flash production, the Murata's new Bluetooth / WLAN module is also an important component of iPhone, dell Latitude LS battery, there AKM Asahi Kasei Semiconductor, Elpida and other Japanese systems manufacturers are Apple's key suppliers.

Gu Wenjun said, according to a research institution in Japan to say, iPhone in the procurement of spare parts from Japan accounted for 34% of the total cost. "Although Apple's supplier system is sound, most of the parts and components suppliers have two to three, but the earthquake will definitely give Apple a lot of pressure to bring the supply chain." Gu Wenjun said.

HP CEO: Japan is assessing the impact of earthquakes on the industrial chain

HONG Ruo-Xin Zhang Jing Branch

HP is also a comprehensive assessment of the earthquake in Japan of its IT industry chain impact.

Took office in November last year, Hewlett-Packard Hewlett-Packard CEO Li Aike new strategy released yesterday, also talked about the Japanese seismic impact on the industry. "Some high-end memory and display production is affected, fortunately, is not subject to loss of employees, but there is still no way to assess the Japanese earthquake on the impact of HP's IT supply chain, but also need to continue observing a period of time." Li Aike told " First Financial Daily "and other media phone connection interview with the case said.

HP is the world's largest printing equipment and computer vendors, dell Inspiron 2000 battery, dell Latitude LS battery, dell 2834T battery, dell 4834T battery, dell Inspiron 1520 battery,HP hopes to build an open application platform to attract third-party developers. Li Yike said, cloud computing and connectivity equipment will make HP more competitive in the future. Cloud computing plans in Li Yike, dell Inspiron 2000 battery, HP projected annual sales of more than 100 million units to tablet PCs, printers, smart phones and other devices, these devices through HP's acquisition last year to 1.2 billion mobile phone operators WebOS Palm's mobile operating system to connect to the together, and HP are good at business users and consumers together with market demand, "1 million units of the device manufacturers can not compete in any number of levels." Li Yike said.

Hewlett-Packard's claim appears to be in response to challenge Apple, Apple's mobile device volume growth as the current alarming.

For the previous news that HP intends to sell its PC business to Samsung or Taiwan OEM manufacturers, Li Aike to the reporter stressed that this is a rumor, "PC in HP's future business development occupies an important position, we will never sell PC business.

Mobile phone, computer battery charging method

Now using a lithium-ion cell phone batteries, so there is no memory effect problem, do not need to activate the first rechargeable Nickel does not need electricity as red as more than 12 hours, filling only about 4 hours, ion battery life only charge the number of a relationship,dell W0465 battery, lithium-ion battery can be charged 1000 times or so. The use of standby time and a relationship. However, selling mobile phone recharge time to say in front of three to 12 hours. In the end how is it?

1, how to charge the battery for the new
In the use of lithium batteries should be noted that after a period of time the battery is placed into hibernation, lower than normal capacity at this time, the use of time has also come to shorten. However, lithium batteries can easily activated, as long as after 3-5 times the normal charge-discharge cycles the battery can be activated to restore normal capacity. Because lithium own characteristics, its decision is almost no memory effect.
So users of the new lithium battery in the phone activation process does not require special methods and equipment. Not only is the theory that, from my own practice, from the outset, using standard methods of charging that "activation" is the best.
For lithium batteries, "activation", a large number of claims: the time to charge more than 12 hours, repeated three times, in order to activate the battery. This "three times before charging more than 12 hours to charge," it is obvious from the nickel battery (such as nickel cadmium and nickel metal hydride) inherited from the argument. Therefore, this argument can be said that the beginning of miscommunication. Lithium and nickel battery charge and discharge characteristics are very different, and can be very clear to tell you that I have had access to all the serious official stressed that all technical information and charge-off will discharge lithium batteries, especially lithium liquid Ion battery causing great harm. According to the standard charge and therefore the best time and method of charging standards, in particular for not more than 12 hours of super-long charge. Typically, dell Latitude X300 battery, the statement introduced mobile phone charging method is suitable for the mobile phone standard method of charging.
In addition, the lithium battery cell phone or battery charger will automatically stop after the charge,dell 1G222 battery, dell BAT3151L8 battery,dell Latitude X300 battery, dell W0465 battery, there is no electricity nickel charger for 10 hours the so-called "trickle" charge. That is, if your lithium batteries in full, on the white charger is also sufficient. And we can not guarantee that the battery charge and discharge protection circuit features and never change the quality of safety, so your battery will be at risk of long-verge. This is also another charge against the chief reason.
In addition, in some mobile phones, charging more than a certain time, if not remove the charger, not only to stop charging when the system will start to discharge - charge cycle. This is perhaps the manufacturer has its own purpose, but apparently the battery and cell phone / charger is the life span at a disadvantage. At the same time, long charging would take a long time, often need at night, and to China's power grid situation, at night in many parts of the voltage is higher, but also volatile. As already said, the lithium battery is very delicate, than nickel in the electric charge and discharge aspects of fluctuations in the capacity of resistance is much less, so this brings additional risk.
In addition, another aspect can not be ignored is the lithium battery is also not suitable for over-discharge, over-discharge of lithium batteries is also very unfavorable. This leads to the following questions.

2, normal use should be when to start charging
In our forums, often see this argument, because the number of charging and discharging is limited, so it should be possible to run out of phone battery power recharging. But I found one on lithium-ion battery charge and discharge cycle test table, on the cycle life data is as follows:
Cycle life (10% DOD):> 1000 times
Cycle life (100% DOD):> 200 times
DOD is the depth of discharge of which the abbreviation. Can be seen from the table,dell BAT3151L8 battery
you can charge and discharge times the depth, 10% DOD cycle life than when the 100% DOD for much longer. Of course, if the actual charge equivalent to the relative total capacity: 10% * 1000 = 100,100% * 200 = 200, the latter a full charge and discharge, or better than some, but in front of friends do say that some of the amendments: Under normal case, you should have run out of reserve in accordance with the remaining battery charge and the principle of re-charging, but if your battery in your first 2 days can not be expected to persist throughout the day, when they should start on time charge, of course, if you are willing to back the charger to the office and a different matter. And you need to charge to meet the anticipated upcoming busy communications will lead to an important event, even though there are a lot of battery power over time, then you just charge ahead, because you are not real loss "1" sub-charge cycle life , that is, "0.x" times only, and often the x will be very small. Remaining battery run out of charge of the principle is not want you to go to the extreme. And long, like charging a widespread view that "as far as possible the cell phone battery runs out, it is best to use automatic shutdown." This practice is only practice on nickel batteries, the purpose is to avoid occurrence of memory effect, unfortunately, it is also spread of lithium batteries on this. It has been too low because the cell phone battery warning appears, still do not charge to use the example has been used in automatic shutdown. The results of this case, cell phone charging and starting later in the no response, had to give customer service overhaul. In fact, this is the result of excessive discharge as a result of the battery voltage is too low, so that does not have the normal charge and the boot and conditions.

3, the lithium battery cell phone the right way
To sum up, I lithium batteries used in mobile phone charging and discharging,dell 1G222 battery, dell BAT3151L8 battery,dell Latitude X300 battery, dell W0465 battery, the most important tips are:
1, in accordance with the standards and procedures, charging time, even the first three to do so;
2, When the phone prompts when electricity is too low and should start charging as much as possible in a timely manner;
3, lithium batteries do not need a special method of activation, normal cell phone use in lithium batteries will naturally activated. If you insist on spreading the "first three 12-hour long activation charge" approach, in fact, there will be no effect.
Therefore, all 12 hours long pursuit of the lithium battery charge and the practice of mobile phone used in automatic shutdown, are wrong. dell 1G222 battery If you used to be done in accordance with an error saying, please correct them in time, perhaps not too late.


Of course, cell phones and chargers to protect themselves and control circuit of good quality cases, the protection of lithium batteries is still quite guaranteed. Therefore, the charge is the key to understand the rules, in some cases also may make some concessions. For example, you find that the phone must be charged before you go to bed at night, you can also start charging before going to bed. The key is, you should know what the right thing, and do not do it deliberately wrong to say that in accordance with.

A decade of Internet superstars: Where are they now?

The Internet has transformed the world--connecting cultures, streamlining commerce, and revolutionizing communication. Oh yeah, and turning dudes bawling about Britney into international celebrities. Not unlike a mosquito-infested swamp,Hp Pavilion ZE5250 Ac Adapter, the Web has been a rich breeding ground of viral phenomena. But no sooner do they become worldwide stars than these cicada-lived celebs cease to exist. Or so it might seem.

[ See also: Vintage Tech Ads: The 15 Funniest Videos ]

I tracked down some of the Internet's biggest overnight/one-night sensations to see what they've been up to since their 15 minutes on the Warhol clock expired. Some have settled into lives of quiet anonymity;Hp Pavilion ZE2000 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE2100 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE2200 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE5250 Ac Adapter, others are now making grand livings off their Net-based notoriety.

But enough talk--ninjas, dancers, and a Turkish guy who just wants a kiss await. Start clicking and get caught up.

Two unexpected pairings led to an explosion of success in 2006--a lawyer and a professional juggler coupled with Diet Coke and Mentos candy. The dynamic duo of Fritz Globe and Stephen Voltz are credited with first bringing fizzing fun to the masses--and they made a cool $30,000 from their now-infamous experiment, which involved dropping discs of the minty candy into the cola, and then manipulating the resulting sprays.

The experimentation hasn't stopped for these two Maine men. The pair's latest clinical trial, which premiered on ABC Family, involves a quarter-million sticky notes--and a whole lot of office chaos.

"We're constantly experimenting with things you can find down at the corner store to see what surprises are there to be found," Globe says. "It's been an amazing ride, and we never expected this kind of attention."

Choreographing the "Evolution of Dance" through the ages earned Judson Laipply a place in the Internet superstar hall of fame. The comedian's 6-minute routine, showcasing dance moves from Elvis to N'Sync,Hp Pavilion ZE2200 Ac Adapter, has amassed tens of millions of hits and has been discussed on everything from "Inside Edition" to "Rolling Stone."

Now, the evolution continues. Laipply, who keeps himself busy by speaking at schools and corporations, is preparing to unveil a second compilation of twists and turns--and a book to go with it. "It has been a long road getting song rights and the like, but everything is finally in place, and I am excited for the launch," he says.

Watch for the revamped routine in early 2009.

A very animated lip-syncing and dancing performance known as "Numa Numa" Hp Pavilion ZE2000 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE2100 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE2200 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZE5250 Ac Adapter,catapulted Gary Brolsma to Internet fame in 2004. Brolsma's simple clip of himself silently singing along with a tune by the Moldovan pop group O-Zone became one of the Web's most popular viral videos, spawning countless parodies and sequels.

Four years later, "Numa" remains focus of Brolsma's life. Since his initial performance,Hp Pavilion ZE2000 Ac Adapter, Brolsma has been busily working on a complete "Numa Network," which he describes as an online channel "almost like a television station, only broadcast right on YouTube." He also runs a computer repair and Web design company and sings for a band called Nonetheless.

"It's all fun," Brolsma says. "I enjoy making people smile." I resisted the impulse to ask whether Brolsma's band actually covers (or for that matter, lyp-syncs) "Numa."

Take a too-small Robin Hood costume, add a Prince Valiant haircut, and you have Randy Constan, the guy at the center of Peter Pan's Home Page--a Web site devoted to Constan's love of all things Pan. His first brush with fame came in 2001 when he swept aside such formidable challengers as Bigfoot Field Researchers and Weird N.J. to capture the coveted Webby Award for Best Weird Site of the year.

But the man in green was just warming up. The next step was to turn a page of his bully pulpit into a Mr. Lonelyhearts outreach projectHp Pavilion ZE2100 Ac Adapter, detailing his search for a like-minded lady. His unusual approach earned Constan viral status and even time on late-night television.

Rest assured, Constan has found his Tinkerbell, and she definitely shares his fondness for faerie--and his fashion sense, too. "We both love to spread joy through our costuming, wherever we go," Constan says.

Costumes aside, Costan independently sells his music--donating much of the proceeds to children's charities, he says--and works a day job in computer software and electronic design. (Casual Fridays must be an eyeful.) Guess a little pixie dust sometimes goes a long way.

It's hard to forget Chris Crocker's emotional plea for the world to "leave Britney alone!" (Believe me, I've tried.)

Crocker's show of support for the floundering pop star set off a media frenzy that he somehow managed to turn into talk-show appearances and an international following. So what's our gender-bending friend up to now? Brace yourself.

Crocker--whose official Web site boldly boasts: "That's Ms. Chris Crocker to you, bitch!"--indicates that he has moved on to a music career. His newly released single, said to be getting plenty of radio play, is called "Mind in the Gutter." (Darn! My money was on a cover version of "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me?") Crocker says that he has done a "lot of growing off-camera" and, though he's "still Chrissy from the Crock," he is "no longer the funny video guy."

Hey, come on. Leave Chris Crocker alone.

The Borat-like guy with a whole lotta love is still looking for lip-lock action

Jay Maynard's costume made him a household name for a short time in 2004. Maynard, who proudly dressed up in a lit-up likeness of the character from Disney's 1982 movie "Tron,"IBM ThinkPad Z60 Ac Adapter parlayed his inspired duds into talk-show appearances and even a "South Park" parody.

Today, the Tron Guy is holding tight to his memories. Maynard--who by day works as a computer consultant and project manager for the Hercules Project, a Windows-based emulator for IBM mainframes--still makes regular appearances in the Tron suit.

"It's really on its last legs and showing its age," he says. "The unitard is about worn out."

Not to worry, though: Maynard has several more waiting in the wings, ready to be painted and prepped for wear. And speaking of wings, Maynard also bought his own plane this summer and had it painted as--take a guess--the Tron costume. "I'm not going to try to drop it," he says. "It's part of who I am by now, and I enjoy doing it. I doubt it'll ever go away entirely."

The Borat-like guy with a whole lotta love is still looking for lip-lock action. Mahir Cagri got his first taste of fame back in 1999 when his photo-filled Web site grabbed America's attention.

These days, Cagri is keeping busy--too busy, it would seem, to have time to answer my questions in person. Cagri's manager informed me that his client wouldn't be available for several weeks. He indicated that I could try e-mailing questions to Cagri at his Yahoo account (because "I have no telephone connection availability to Mahir as you have to try your chance"). Regrettably,Hp Special Edition L2000 Ac Adapter Cagri did not see fit to reply--talk about a kiss off!

Nonetheless, I was able to learn that the mustachioed man continues to travel and work as a "profession jurnalist." He plans to visit the United States on an "invitaion" this fall and is mulling "making some promotional PR arrangements." Cagri also continues to "make psycolojy doctora" and, of course, enjoys taking photos of "nice nude models."

Some things never change.

Millions of people related to Vincent Ferrari's hellish customer support experience, shared worldwide via the Web. In 2006, the New York man recorded and uploaded his phone-based struggle to cancel an AOL account--a seemingly endless loop of call center scripting that could drive anyone mad.

Ferrari, thankfully, hasn't endured any comparable calls since then. "My friends think it's because people recognize my name and don't want to risk becoming the next 'Jon,'" he says, referring to the call service employee ridiculed as a result of the recorded incident.

Ferrari now spends his time working at a cellular phone company, running a hosting company, and video blogging about whatever comes to his mind.

As for the infamous call and the Internet fame that ensued, Ferrari says that he's only been recognized once. "My wife cracked up, and I was totally mortified," he remembers. He hasn't returned to AOL for Internet service, however. In fact, he says that he never even wanted to use it in the first place.

"I kept it mostly so that I had an account I could use to troubleshoot AOL installs at work," Ferrari reveals.

A ninja with knowledge changed Kent Nichols's and Douglas Sarine's lives forever. The comedy duo's "Ask a Ninja" Web site,Hp Pavilion ZT1100 Ac Adapter, in which a ninja answers all sorts of e-mail queries from viewers, took off in 2005. No matter the question, the outfitted ninja always seemed to have an answer related to his singular passion. (You know...ninja-ing.)

Nowadays, the ninja is doing better than ever. The initial buzz may have died down,Hp Pavilion ZF Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT1000 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT1100 Ac Adapter, Hp Special Edition L2000 Ac Adapter but Nichols and Sarine have built a full-time business from their zany idea. They've even produced a book that's already available in stores: "The Ninja Handbook." "The book is awesome," Nichols says. "It's a full parody of the 'Boy Scout Manual' and guides the non-ninja along the ninja path to enlightenment."

Be prepared!

For a girl who used to be on-camera around the clock, Jennifer Ringley has done a swell job of disappearing from the public eye. The now-all-grown-up Jenni shot into the spotlight in 1996 when her JenniCam Web site introduced the then-unusual concept of a 24-7 Webcam. Still images captured Ringley in any activity--sitting, reading, having sex--with shots taken and updated every 3 minutes. The saga lasted for seven years.

Since shutting down the cam in 2003, Ringley has returned to private life in Northern California--either as a social services worker or as a computer programmer, depending on whom you ask. She shuns media attention, though, and rarely pops up in formal interviews.

Ah, how we miss her.

Whether you think of them as the Chinese Backstreet Boys or as their more recent moniker would have it, the Back Dorm Boys, these two Asian dudes were tearin' up their hearts for the world back in 2005. The duo used a college dorm Web cam to capture heartfelt,Hp Pavilion ZT1000 Ac Adapter, coordinated performances of the Backstreet Boys' biggest hits.

Though they may have dropped off the radar stateside, these lip-synching sensations have by no means mothballed their careers. Wei and Huang graduated from college in 2006 with two corporate deals already in their pockets: one as spokesfolk for Motorola in China and another as bloggers and podcasters with Chinese Internet portal Sina.com. They're now in the midst of a five-year deal with Beijing media company Taihe Rye that's made them full-fledged TV stars, with appearances in commercials for major vendors such as Pepsi.

Their skill? Lip-syncing, of course.

Traveling and dancing made Matt Harding an Internet superstar. Harding turned his Where the Hell Is Matt? Web site into a worldwide phenomenon by doing little jigs in front of various landmarks worldwide.

These days, Matt is still traveling and making videos--though the dancing doesn't happen as often. "In the rare occasion that I do that, all of a sudden people are waving to me from windows and things like that," he says. Harding hasn't had a "real job" in three years, he confesses: The traveling videos take up all of his time and even pay his bills. He also just landed a book deal and is getting ready to put his journeys onto paper.

One guy who still keeps careful records is Noah Kalina. Kalina's face became awfully familiar when he started his "Everyday" project back in the year 2000. He took a photo of himself daily for six years,Hp Pavilion ZT Ac Adapter, leading to ample attention and even a parody of his endeavor on "The Simpsons."

The daily photos haven't stopped, but a lot of other things have started. Kalina now works as a professional photographer, snapping shots for such publications as "New York" magazine, "Forbes Life," and "Blender." "I do a mix of work--portraits for some magazines, interiors for others," he says. As for the Everyday exhibit, it's currently traveling around the world--and continuing to grow. The project is now up to eight-and-a-half years' worth of morning mugshots.

Proof that anything is possible, Kyle MacDonald stepped into the international spotlight when he sought to trade a single red paperclip for a new home back in 2005. After a year of bartering and 14 trades later, MacDonald did it--swapping a role in a movie for a two-story farmhouse in Canada. His quest was covered by major media outlets and even won MacDonald a spot in the "Guinness Book of World Records" under the heading "Most Successful Internet Trade."

Fast-forward to today, and Kyle's back on the trading block. This time, Hp Pavilion ZF Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT1000 Ac Adapter, Hp Pavilion ZT1100 Ac Adapter, Hp Special Edition L2000 Ac Adapter he's trying to see what kinds of interesting things he can get for the house he worked so hard to earn. "My wife Dom and I lived in the red paperclip house for some time and then decided we'd like to live near our families," he says. "We'd like to trade the house because it's kinda sitting empty most of the time, and it'd be great if somebody was in there!" As to his barter options, MacDonald is playing his cards close to the vest. He will reveal only that he has received 300 offers so far. "I'm keeping them all a secret until I make my decision who to trade with," he says.

MacDonald also keeps busy promoting his recent book about the adventure and renovating houses in his Canadian community.

Make no mistake, our next crooner hits all his own notes. Tay Zonday first made a splash with his 2007 smash, "Chocolate Rain."

Zonday's surprisingly deep vocals and seemingly cryptic lyrics resonated with the world,Hp Pavilion ZF Ac Adapter, transforming him from student into superstar.

For Zonday--born Adam Nyerere Bahner--"Chocolate Rain" opened plenty of doors. The baritone belter popped up on everything from CNN to "USA Today" and even found himself being imitated by real-world rock stars. Now 26, Zonday is working hard to show that he's no one-hit wonder. He has released more than a dozen Net-driven singles and has expanded his vocal prowess into the world of commercial voice-over work.

"The hardest thing about being an Internet celebrity is you don't get any vacation," he says. "There is no off-season."
