Exam Mania

Exam Docket is out today. The exam venue is Anglo Chinese JC @ Dover. I wondered why it is not Expo this time around. I feel as if exam timer is ticking faster and faster then ever. It's 16 days away from the exam dates. Time to check some exam tips out there in the net.


The Google search generates 36700 pages for the search keyword "June 2008 ACCA Exam tips" but only one link is relevant for my search. Thousands of students are going for this exam , yet the tips are amazingly limited. Probably this is what ACCA is about. Gotta study everything.

By the way if you need a little motivation from ACCA, you can go here and hope they mean what they say. Or you may just see below.

Adsense Tips

I have written a post on how to remove adsense widget from your blogger homepage that is to just display the ads when the current page is showing either an individual post or posts under a certain label. Please click here to browse to that post. In that post, the subject matter is that the adsense unit happens to be the widget displayed on a right panel of my blog.

Last week, I tried to show the ads units after every individual post body. I followed the guidelines from "Tips for New Bloggers" to achieve my objective. I did archive the objective but with a defect that the ads do show up only after some posts. I could only view two or three ads units in the same page which contains 5 posts or more. Probably the adsense code was intelligent enough to limit the maximum number of ads units to be displayed in one page.

Thus, I decided to remove the ads if the current page shows more than one posts, meaning the ads should be displayed only in a page which contains a single post. Here, I assume that you have already followed the steps from "Tips for New Bloggers". The next thing to do is just insert conditional check in red color as follows. This check ensures that the ads unit(s) displays only when the page type is item, ie ., the individual post. The ad(s) will not be displayed on the home page or a label page.











You can view the effect of the check in this site. Click on any single post title, you will see the ads. Go to homepage or click on a label, you will not view any ads after the post body. I hope it works for you too.

Men

A man is dating three women and wants to decide which to marry. He decides to give them a test. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.

The first does a total makeover. She goes to a fancy beauty salon, gets her hair done, purchases new make-up and buys several new outfits and dresses up very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more attractive for him because she loves him so much. The man is impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of STRONG golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer and some expensive clothes. As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the money on him because she loves him so much. Again, the man is impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times the $5,000. She gives him back his $5000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future because she loves him so much. Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money.Then he married the one with the largest breasts.

Men are Men!!!
