Apple Iphone 4s Review
For more mobile phone reviews visit http://www.disposabletoothfairy.co.uk/ (Submit your own for a chance to win prizes)
The Apple iPhone 4S review
After so much hype and rumours about the new Apple version of iPhone, the company finally released iPhone 4S last October 2011. Even though, it was not iPhone 5 that everyone expected, a lot of people are still satisfied with the additional bits and bobs of the 4S version. There was no overhauling on the latest iPhone version, but the few changes make it extraordinary. However, before purchasing iPhone 4S, it is definitely important to know its pros and cons.
Features
Basically, the appearance of iPhone 4S is not different from its old version. The size, shape, and the feeling is still the same, so having it will not concern you that much. However, instead of connecting the iPhone to a computer, iPhone 4s can be connected through iCloud. This means that you have to have an account of iCloud in order for you to enjoy restoring your important data. Simply browse the latest iOS5 for you to be guided on connecting the iCloud, its passwords as well as the general tasks required from you. It is very easy and quick though.
General Specifications
The previous iPhone has a memory of not greater than 32GB, but the latest iPhone 4S offers several memory selections, from 8GB to 64GB. Therefore, it is a most convenient solution as the user can choose the memory appropriate for his/her lifestyle and usage.
With regards to the CPU, iPhone 4S is fitted with 1 GHz Apple A5 Custom Designed Dual Core processor. This means that the phone can do a lot of tasks at the same time, unlike the old versions.
Siri is one of the new features of iPhone 4S, and it acts as the owner’s personal virtual assistant. The task of Siri is; it sends relevant messages to you whenever you ask for a command, but its downside is the inability to recognize your voice during noisy crowds or backgrounds. Aside from this, language barrier is also the weakest point of this feature. Since every person speaks a different language, Siri may or may not function very well. However, Apple Company customized this feature to a particular language. This enables the user to enjoy the feature even if he/she has other language than English.
For people who are not familiar with iCloud, this is actually a feature that allows the iPhone 4S users to synch their files to the internet. Though you have accidently lost your phone for some reasons, the important data will be restored.
The good thing about iPhone 4S is the fact that it has iOS5. This will help you connect your files in the World Wide Web without taking much effort in connecting your iPhone to your laptop or PC. You simply need a Wi-Fi connection or a 3G in order to make this feature functional.
Lastly, iPhone 4S is distinct from its old versions because it has a Newsstand, which lets the users download free newspapers and magazines online. This means that you can have a daily subscription of the latest news and updates in your locality or in the international scenario without paying a great amount of money for it.
Conclusion
Overall, iPhone 4S is much better than its old versions. The features are different, and it provides a more realistic functionality to all users. Anyone can enjoy the virtual assistant Siri, store a number of files in the internet through iCloud, download newspapers or magazines, download a great quantity of music, videos and pictures with the iPhone 4S

How To Start A Blog
You’re a person who has a lot to offer the world. You have lots of
hobbies, activities, life experiences and other wisdom that you want
to share, but you don’t know how. Writing a 200+ page book is too
complicated and speaking in front of a large crowd might be too much
for you to handle. So how do you get yourself out there to the masses
without much money and not a big name to back you up? A blog, of
course. How do you make one though, and how do they work? Is it
complex, do you need to be a computer genius, and does it take a lot
of time? Let’s dig into some of those questions and see how simple it
is to make your own website and put your ideas on virtual paper.
The first thing you need to do is create a website that will host
(hold the information) for your blog. You can do a search and type in
Blogger and create one for free. It’s very simple to do, and they
show you step by step how to make it. All you will do is make a name
for the site, type in your name and some other personal information
and that’s it, you just made your own website! There are many ways to
do this, and this is just one. Another way is using Word Press
Of course you want it to look fantastic, so look through the different
themes they have to offer or you can also do a search online to find
other one’s that you feel suit you better. There is no “right” theme,
but there are theme’s that will match more what you want to do than
others. For example, there are themes that show off pictures at the
top of the site, or others do slideshows that look very nice. Others
have genre specific themes like nature, movies, technology, animals,
travel and more. If you want a theme that goes specifically with what
you are writing about, that would be a great route to go with.
What do you write about now that you actually have a blog up and
running? That depends on what you want it for. Do you just want to
talk about your personal life and experiences, a hobby that you
actively practice, something you have a lot of wisdom and knowledge
on, or maybe you want to make some money using your blog. Keep it
simple and focused on what your readers will be reading. Don’t write
10 blogs on home repair then start writing about bird watching. Your
readers are there because they enjoy your style and they can relate in
one way or another to what you’re writing, but you will effectively
eliminate most of your audience if you completely switch topics on a
regular basis. If you want to write about different topics, write
about one topic in one blog and one in another.

Guest Post- How To Build Muscles: Some tips and Guidelines
How
to Build Muscles: Some Tips and Guidelines
We
all know that muscles are the building blocks of the human body. So
it is a fact that we all have the same number of muscles; however,
you have to accept the fact that when we watch a body builder lifting
some huge weights, then only is the time we become aware of our
muscles.
Whenever
we say about building muscles, the first thing that comes into our
mind is nothing other than exercises. I believe that it should be
done by almost everyone for their own body fitness and sometimes even
to build their muscles. As we are speaking on muscle building,
special focus must be given on some specific kind of weight training
especially applicable for good biceps and triceps.
In
order to increase the size of the muscle, it is essential to stress
the muscles by doing the right kind of exercises. One should use
light weights first and then slowly and gradually move to more
complex and rigid schedule of training because it is necessary to get
the body used to lifting weights gradually as this is the only way to
lower the risk of getting injured. By doing crunches, leg lift and
cardio workouts, one can surely build muscles. Increasing the
difficulty level of training and mixing the right kind of exercises
along with time is a necessity factor. However, increasing the
weights and exercises will also challenge the muscles and help them
to remain active and increase gradually.
One
should also get rid of fat from the body. Fat hinders the muscle
building process and the muscles can’t be visible if there is any
fat in that part of the body. Therefore, the activities like jogging,
cycling, swimming, dancing are always helpful to burn out the fat of
the body and tone the muscles properly. Right kind of food habits
like avoiding colas, fried food, salty food, and eating smaller
dinner are helpful. Restraining from alcohol, late night sleep,
avoiding anxiety is must as in tensed conditions the body release
anxiety hormones, which conserve more fat from the food than what it
conserves in normal condition.
Eating
lean proteins in small intervals is helpful because that maintains
the metabolism at a constant level and breaks the body fat, but don’t
use the body muscle as a fuel to maintain the metabolic rate. Food
should contain high protein value and less sugar level. It is useful
to have protein shakes or sports drink after 30-45 minutes of a
weight-lifting session as this helps to repair and build the weary
muscles. Drinking good quantity of water is also necessary for a
bodybuilder as exercises often produce some toxins inside the body
and to get rid of these toxins 3-4 litres of water is essential to
drain them out. One can incorporate juices, sports drinks and some
other similar drinks to have this approximate quota of fluid.
Taking
proper rest and having enough sleep is the most essential part to
prepare the body and give time for the muscles to repair as this is
the only way in which body can repair them the incorporating muscle
tissues which means an increase in size.
With
all these basic guidelines, building muscles is not that hard thing
as it seems to be. So wake up tomorrow morning and start building
your muscles for a much handsome look!

Guest Post- How I Use My Website
How
I use My Website
There
are a lot of reasons why I make a website. First, I want to share my
own ideas to the world. As the modern technology advances, more and
more people are also gaining access in the World Wide Web. This means
that there is a good chance that my site will gain recognition if
only it has a great and consistent traffic. When we say traffic, this
is the number of site visitors per day. The more I have traffic, the
greater the chances of my website to get a higher rank on search
engines like Google, Yahoo, Bing and many others. Thus, I keep on
updating my site, post articles, pictures and videos related to my
niche.
Basically,
it is not easy to make a website. I did a lot of brainstorming and
research before I get into the decision of making this. As I finally
decided for the niche, I keep on making unique contents that do not
plagiarize. My website provides help to several internet browsers all
over the world. With this, I always manage to answer their questions
and help them as much as possible. I find fulfilment in helping other
people, and my site really allows me to gain new online friends.
Although, this consumes a lot of my time, I am grateful to assist and
create a positive impact to other people’s lives.
Aside
from providing helpful information to internet browsers, my website
enables me to earn an amount of money. I grab the opportunity to
place several ads on my site and with the clicks of the browsers, I
gain profit from it. I started from earning a little, and it soared
high as the number of traffic also increased. This is the reason why
I make it a point to update my site and post relevant contents to it.
Even though, earning is not my priority, I try to maximize the
resources I have. There are a number of web developers who became
rich through their site hence, I also tried and notice that earning
online is very possible.
I
also applied online marketing on my site. I promoted different kinds
of products related to my niche, and I use the social networking
media to increase its exposure. The entire process is difficult
especially that I do not have a good background in making a site.
However, I keep on reading and joining forums in order to know how to
improve the website. It may take a lot of hard work to make it, but
the results are always worthwhile. I highly encourage all the
aspiring web makers to start selecting a niche that they are
passionate about. I choose to work on a website that I know I am good
at, that is why posting contents is not hard on my part. With the
passion I have, I gain profit and friends. I know that as time goes
by, more and more people will be attracted towards my site, and I
will earn big from it.

'Houdini the hamster makes his great escape'
Just read an article in the Metro about a hamster named Houdini which 'has left his owners with a £1000 repair job after chewing through the electrics of their car.'
After reading the full article I just can't believe how irresponsible the woman was taking her daughter to buy a hamster, THEN going to the supermarket leaving her daughter in the car with the hamster in the tiny little cardboard box, no wonder it chewed through the box and escaped! I'd like to see that woman wait patiently in a cardboard box while someone does their shopping! Anyone who cares at all about animals and has the slightest bit of common sense should realize theres a reason Pets At Home ask if you're going straight home with your new pet! I bet she's learnt her lesson now though =P

Sometimes life is funny...sometimes its not
First of all I have to laugh at a few things I was thinking about while walking through town the other day-
High heels! Why do people wobble along the street for the sake of looking like a giraffe?!? WHY?!?
Also, shopkeepers turning away and shuffling papers or fiddling with things pretending to be doing something when really all they're doing is making an over the top attempt to prove they're not trying to peek at you entering your pin number! ooh or chinese people turn away with their hands together in front of them! (Thanks for rememebering that one Bob!)
Sitting down on the ground outside Sainsburys, before a posh old woman suddenly ran up to me, asked if I would still be there in 10 minutes and said she wanted to buy me something 'hoT' and then asked me what I would like! Hahahahahahahahaha........do I really look like a tramp??!? It would seem I must, or perhaps she was just in the mood for buying strangers food, but either way I got a free Reggae Reggae chicken thing and a strawberry and banana smoothie so I can't complain!
BUT
Being stuck with a shitty bank account, that doesn't even allow me to have a proper debit card, just a shitty visa electron and prevents me withdrawing more than £50 in the same day is a lot less funny to me though. Especially when wost of all, it doesnt even allow me an overdraft so repeatedly declines direct debits to come out.....then charges me £10 for each one it declines, takes loads of money out for those charges, which DOES make me overdrawn (funny they just said i couldnt be overdrawn on my account) then they reject the second attempt for those direct debits to come out because theyve taken all my money in charges, so they take even more money off me! NO WONDER ALL MY BILLS REMAIN UNPAID! I'm changing bank next week, seriously.
Also why is it so fucking cold at this time of year?! its MAY its nearly summer and its fucking freezing! Oh to think next month is yet another birthday of mine (and oh crap i missed several peoples birthdays already this year, i never remember other peoples have passed until I realize mine is coming and that theres was several months before mine =/ woops) and oh the joys! I'll be twenty fucking six!
It's good to end a blog post on a depressing note!

Requested Blog Topic- All My Friends Are Freaks Because...
Very short one this time but it was requested-
All my friends are freaks because...possibly because my friend who requested this topic is a bit of a freak and was hoping I'd come out with a big long list of why my other friends are freaks so then she would feel better about being a freak but NO, i don't have any other friends that are real so I cant very well call them freaks! They may may be invisible but certainly not freaks, although I do recall my mother touching on the fact all my friends are a bit messed up in the head so yes I suppose I do have friends that probably could be classed as freaks but I think a nicer term would be mentally challenged...unlike myself.

Requested blog topic- 'My day'
My day: New pets, Final goodbyes and being special
Last week my social worker said im special and certainly made me feel 'speshul' when she arrived with my
support worker for a visit...both of them at once is most degrading! Certainly not the sort of special I'm
comfortable with but at least they are both rather amusing, I had been told a week before that because i was
special i had to think of something fun to do on her last day visiting me and i could think of nothing so when
they arrived and were going over some very boring stuff i think they expected me to care about i realized it
was the perfect chance to get a lift across town to Pets At Home for some rats, which i asked my social worker
and she said that was fine and my support worker then said she wanted to come too, but was rather bluntly told
'i think we're going to go and get something to eat first actually' and that was the end of that conversation! So
off we went to Pets at Home, after stopping at McDonalds for lunch... a happy meal for me which for once
was lovely and even the 'toy' was great since it was actually a little sandwich box which could also be divided
into 2 sections using what also could be used as both a spoon on one end or a knife using the other end. The
only let down was a stupid cardboard circle that was semi-cut into triangle segments and supposedly
supposed to be pulled apart for some reason + had a picture of fruit on one side, Tom and Jerry on the other,
and even after looking at the instructions it appeared to have no purpose whatsoever unless it was the worlds
most ridiculous puzzle.
It baffled me all the way to Pets At Home but once i got there i had a great time watching all the rats for ages,
including a slightly deformed one that my social worker believed to be brain damaged. but i actually wish i got
him as well as the 2 boys i got, both 5 months old and named King Arthur and Cosmic Creepers the third.
To end the day my social worker ran back up the aisles while i was at the checkout paying for my new rats and
returned with some bits and bobs that i wonder who/what they were for although i didnt bother asking, but as
soon as we were back in the car with the rats she dumped the stuff on top of the box the rats were in and said
'housewarming present for the rats' before taking me home and saying goodbye for the last time. It was a sad
moment but it reminded me that only a few months ago i was in a similar situation but with my old support
worker who gave a pair of earrings and said i was special + that she was really glad she got to work with me,
so I must be special for both of them to say I am. They may actually mean special as the rather unfortunate
'speshul' as opposed to the desirable meaning of special, but clearly I'm very special one way or another!

Requested blog topic- 'my mother is on facebook'
This one i found interesting because i remember talking to someone a few years ago, back when people actually used bebo, about not wanting something to be said on my bebo page because i was worried about my mum reading it (I wish i could say what it was but i honestly cant remember). My friend thought that was the most ridiculous thing ever and asked how my mum would come across something on bebo and seemed surprised to hear my mum actually had a bebo page.
Now everyone has abandoned bebo, including my mother, who naturally joined everyone else on facebook.
All i can say though, is who cares whose mother is on facebook?!?!? My GRANDMOTHER is on facebook! Yes, my grandmother, after a lot of objections and insisting she had no desire to join everyone on facebook and keep updated in other peoples lives and share her own stories or even just send private messages to those she wished to speak to, my granny finally gave in and joined the rest of the family, and the rest of the world on facebook.

Introduction
c'What should i blog about?' I've never quite understood why anyone wanting to start a blog would ask that question.....if they cant think of anything that they feel like writing about, or anything they know people will want to read about, what exactly is their purpose? More importantly, why are they asking that when so many lists of requests are being posted everywhere and ignored? Thats why i have now decided to make my own blog, despite not having anything specific i want to write about, or actually asking anyone for ideas. I'm simply going to write about what people ask to be written.
Some of the topics requested are:-
*My mother is on facebook
*What i spend money on
*Buying and selling online
*My children will do it differently
*Blackberry reviews
*Facebook apps i love
*When is free better and when not
*Top websites
*Top android apps
