Some mung bean has ruined an entire list of global APN’s that I posted in a previous article. This page contains a list of Australian APN’s for Android.
Amon_Ra has released the latest recovery ROM for the HTC HERO… currently installing now 
via [Recovery ROM] [15-August-2010] RA-hero-v1.7.0.1 – xda-developers.
I’ve always been on the lookout to make things so much easier for the HTC HERO and even with APN (Access Point Names). This link discusses how to get everything to work in Australia.
Very interesting…. I’m going to play around the build.prop and default.xml file tonight.

As the article mentions, taking a combination of fish oil and evening primrose oil capsules can help children and adults who have ADHD according to the University of South Australia and CSIRO.
I will make a note that my specialist told me that when I take evening primrose oil an hour before I go to bed that I should take it with multi-vitamins as the multi-vitamins will break down the oils and will be much more effective that taking it on its own.
In addition to better attention and behaviour, the study showed improvements in the children’s vocabulary. “This might be attributed to enhanced reading ability, which has been found in other studies of children with learning difficulties who take fish oil,” Sinn said. “Alternatively, it might have resulted from improvements in attention. “Fish oil is believed to work via its effects on brain function. Sixty per cent of the brain is composed of fats, with the most important being polyunsaturated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. These must be obtained through diet and can be found in dark leafy vegetables, walnuts, linseeds and oily fish.I found this to be a rather interesting article, why? As I have ADHD myself, I found that every time I went to sleep I would always have problems trying to get to sleep. I would be sitting on the couch watching TV and start to slowly drift off, so I would turn the TV off and go to bed. As soon as I put my head down on the pillow, I’m wide awake and it is as if the brain kicks into overdrive. Thoughts would be bouncing around, thinking of what I need to do or just ruminations of things that I need to do or may have bugged me.
In summary, I would get no sleep at all and reverted to using sleeping pills and now using Magnesium supplements which are somewhat working but have had to start using sleeping pills as things haven’t been so easy lately.
This article on the ADDITUDEMAG website discusses sleep disorders which is often one of the symptoms that some people with ADHD may suffer from. For me, the Initiation Insomnia is what I mainly get but I also get the others that is mentioned in this article.
I’ve just read an extract of this article and smiled as its exactly how I feel.
Many people with ADHD are at their best at night. They are most energetic, thinking clearest, and most stable after the sun goes down. The house is quiet and distractions are low. This is their most productive time. Unfortunately, they have jobs and families to which they must attend the next morning, tasks made harder by inadequate sleep.One thing that I’m experimenting with right now is that as I take both Dexamphetamine and Ritalin, the doctor suggested that I try taking 1 Ritalin tablet at night before I go to bed as the theory is that it should slow the brain down and stop the large swarm of thoughts at night. I’ve only been trying this for a few days so I’m unable to make a judgement as to whether or not it is working but from what I can tell from such a short period in time, it appears to be working.

Have you ever carried out a Google search on your own name? When you do, make sure that you use the ” ” characters so that Google will do a full string search. For example…. “Steven North” will search the internet for anything that meets that criteria. Whereas, if you searched for the name without the quotation marks, the results can differ.
Anyway…. for something humorous, I did a Google search on myself and this is what I came across.
- Steven North on IMDB – Hollywood Producer
- Steven North’s Film Biography
- Steven North, St Andrews Links Golf Course – Director of Instruction
- Steven North, Author – Fraud in industry; detection, prevention and prosecution
- Steven North, Guitarist
- Steven North, Medical Malpractice Attorney
- Steven North, Actor
- Steven North, Music Composer for Huckleberry Finn (1975) movie (before I was even born)
…. and that’s just the start…..
I’ve just installed the Windows Live Essentials Beta and I’m using Windows Live Writer Beta to do this post. I’ve just installed a few plug-in to test out a few things to see how it works.
The post below…. is using some sort of “Insert Code” plug-in and for some strange reason… doesn’t look the pretty at all… I’ve since realised that it is because I said to “embed the style sheet”… Ok… I’m going to have to do this as images, to show you how this is turning out… the box below was entered, with “embed style sheet”
![image[3]](http://www.forgone.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/image3.png "image[3]")
Sub import_salaries() Dim conn As New Connection, rec As New Recordset Dim ws As Worksheet Dim sql$, i& Set ws = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets("Sheet1") conn.Open "Provider=microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0;" + _ "Data Source=" + ThisWorkbook.Path + "\HR_Occupancy_Table.mdb" ' T3Lookup = ws.Range("CCLOOKUP").Value ' sql = "SELECT Employee_No, Employee_Name, Cost_Centre_Description, Salary_Year, T3_CC_Lookup " & _ "FROM HR_OCCUPANCY WHERE T3_CC_Lookup = " & ws.Range("CCLOOKUP").Value & " ORDER BY Cost_Centre_Description " sql = "SELECT * " & _ "FROM HR_OCCUPANCY WHERE T3_CC_Lookup = " & ws.Range("CCLOOKUP").Value & " ORDER BY Cost_Centre_Description " Dim rng As Range, cell As Range
Now I enter, the same code…… but with “line numbers” and I get boxes all over the place as can be seen in the image below. What I did find interesting, and that is it is because the formatting is based on the theme CSS style that I’m using is that the box is displayed as pre-formatted… which in fact… IS FANTASTIC!!!!! I’ve been wanting to try to figure how to have a pre-formatted box, coded to the VBA syntax… very very interesting. Time to keep playing around. However, it is late at the time this is published so I’m off to bed.
Well, I found a way to do it…. not that I have tested it. This will allow you to connect the phone using the PC’s internet access through the USB cable. In the event that the article is taken down…. I’ve copied and pasted the article below.

I'd like to connect to the internet with my android using the PC internet connection. -> Yes, you can. It's described on koolu's forum. Check this link [1]. If you dont have access i just copy paste the instructions below. All credit goes to koolu and Brian Code for this info: [1] http://forum.koolu.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=89 Yes, you can use the USB to browse the web... You need to do three things to enable the internet. 1. First make sure that network forwarding is working on the computer that the phone is connected to. 2. Add the default route to the phone: Code: Select all route add default gw 192.168.0.200 dev usb0 3. Add the dns for proper name resolution Code: Select all setprop net.dns1 192.168.0.200 You should be able to ping the computer the phone is connected to: Code: Select all ping 192.168.0.200 You should also be able to ping IP addresses outside of that subnet if the route has been set up properly. The route can be verified by: Code: Select all cat /proc/net/route Cheers, Brian
I was trying to figure out how to have my Android phone use the PC’s internet connection through the USB cable and have came across this article. This article only talks about connecting the Android phone to an Ad-Hoc wireless network (such as the laptop wireless connection).
Unfortunately it doesn’t talk about using the USB connectivity to connect to the internet using the PC as the host.
