Gmail on your Nokia Series 60 phone....

Do you have a Gmail account and a Nokia Series 60 phone (like the 7650, 3650, 3660, 6600, 6620, 6630, 6670, 6680, 6681, 6260, 3230, 7610, N-Gage, N-Gage QD, etc.)? If you do, here are the steps that you can follow in order to configure your phone to receive email messages (directions may vary slightly depending on your phone model):

  1. Make sure your phone already has a set internet access point. You can get this information from your provider, or you can get the settings from Nokia either manually or via the downloadable Settings Wizard app from this page.

  2. First log in your Gmail account. Click "settings" on the upper right. Click on the "Forwarding and POP" tab, then click "Enable POP";

  3. Go to the messaging app on your Nokia, press "Options", go to "Settings" then "Email." Click on options again and select "New mailbox";

  4. Key in "Gmail" the space marked "Mailbox name";

  5. In the next space select the internet access point of your provider;

  6. Enter your email address in the next space;

  7. Key in "smtp.gmail.com" in the space marked "Outgoing mail server";

  8. In the space marked "User name" enter your email account's username. It's the email address sans the domain extension (i.e. john@gmail.com, the username is john);

  9. Enter your password in the space so marked;

  10. Key in "pop.gmail.com" in the space marked "Incoming mail server";

  11. Select "POP3" as the mailbox type;

  12. Set "Security" to "On." If a port number is required select port numbers 993 and 995;

  13. Set "APOP secure login" (for some Nokias) to "off".

That's it! Now all you have to do scroll to the Gmail mailbox icon in your messages menu, and click "Options" to send or receive email.

Is aspartame safe?

Image
Do you know what aspartame is? Well, even if you don't, given its ubiquitous nature, its a virtual certainty that you have already crossed paths with it in your life at one time or another. For the uninitiated, aspartame is a low-calorie sugar substitute most often used in carbonated beverages, you know, the diet or lite variety. Here in the Philippines, it is commonly known by the brand names NutraSweet and Equal . The reason why it has significantly fewer calories is because its not carbohydrate based. Its a methyl (methane derivative) ester (organic compound) dipeptide (two amino acids joined by a single peptide bond) consisting of aspartic acid as the first amino acid, and phenylalanine as the second. Its about 180 times sweeter than typical table sugar, and as such, a little goes a long way. A single pellet of Equal (18 mg of aspartame) has about the same sweetening strength as a teaspoon of ordinary white sugar (about 5 ml). Do the math. It was first discovered in 19...

It's a device that is claimed to drastically reduce the fuel consumption of your gasoline driven vehicle by as much as 50%. It created such a hype when it was introduced in November 2003 after glowing reviews and endorsements from, among others, the Department of Energy (DOE), the Makati Land Transportation Office (LTO) and Taiwan’s Automotive Research and Testing Center. Even Malacañang got into the picture, and presented the inventor, Pablo Planas, with a Presidential Award Medal for Outstanding Invention. All in all, various government agencies and government officials got into the picture, singing the praises of a device that miraculously reduces fuel consumption by a significant margin. As a result, in less than a year, more than 3,500 units were sold and installed to customers who swear by the product's effe...
