When you buy minutes for your Tracfone, you will put code numbers on your phone and then more minutes and activation time will appear on your phone. If you also use a promo code when you add a minute card to your phone, you’ll get more minutes. The Minutes Card will have a 15-digit number. The promo code will always be a 5-digit number.

How to use Tracfone promo codes

• You can add Airtime through a landline. This used to be my preferred way of adding promo codes, but now getting through the Tracfone Customer Service phone system takes too long.
• Add Airtime Direct from the phone. From the Digital Tracfones you can add minutes from the Prepaid Menu. Click Menu, then Prepaid, scroll to add airtime and click, on some phones it will add the 5-digit promo code right after your card’s 15-digit PIN number and on some phones it will ask you after you’ve entered the PIN if you have a promotion code. You will only have one chance to use a promo code from your phone. If the code doesn’t work, Tracfone will still process your minutes card and give you the minutes on the card. To try to get your bonus codes if they do not go through this method, you will need to call Tracfone Customer Service and try to get your bonus minutes.
• Adding Tracfone drives from your computer (My favorite) I like to add airtime from my computer because if you try a promo code that doesn’t work, you can try two more times. If on the third try you don’t get a code to work, Tracfone will simply add the minutes card without the bonus minutes. If you try two different promo codes and they don’t work, please close your browser and delete temporary cookies and then you will have three more chances to test the bonus codes. Go to Tracfone.com and click the “add/buy airtime” button at the top of the page and the website will guide you through.

Preparing to add units

First, I will write my Tracfone Serial Number (ESN) on the back of a business card with Tracfone’s customer service number (1-800-867-7183). I’ll also put my phone number in so you can easily find the numbers just in big enough letters that I can read them without looking at the menu on my Tracfone.

How to Find Tracfone Promo Codes.

I first registered my phone’s serial number and joined the “Tracfone Insider” program. This plan gives you a monthly email update from Tracfone. This email usually has a promo code for you.

Publisher: Hammond World Atlas CorporationISBN: 0843709375

Hammond World Atlas Corporation has partnered with the best-selling World Almanac and Book of Facts to create an excellent and educational publication, Hammond World Almanac 2006 World Atlas.

You can probably call this Almanac the bible of world-class mapping and data with its 200 pages of facts and figures on people, ethnic groups, languages, religions, area, capital, GDP, head of state, and governments. And then there are TerraScape’s 100 pages of digital maps that present three-dimensional relief of land and ocean terrain.

When I looked at the “Contents” section of the Almanac, I was delighted to see that there is a section dealing with map interpretation. How many times have you looked at a map and have no idea what all the symbols or scales and projections on the map mean?

In clear and precise language, the authors of this publication explain what map projections are and explore some of the most commonly used projections. They also present us with a new projection, the Hammond Optimal Conformal.

For those of us unfamiliar with the term map projection, we are told that the challenge cartographers face is projecting the curved surface of the Earth onto a flat plane. Consequently, to accomplish this feat, cartographers have developed map projections or formulas that govern this conversion of geographic data. It is possible to identify each point on the earth with the help of a geographic coordinate grid, and this grid is projected onto a flat surface.

From this starting point, explanations of general principles and terms, how to flatten a sphere, selected examples of projections, conic projection, and Hammond’s optimal conformal are provided.

This initial section is followed by a full explanation of how to use the map section. It is here that we discover how boundaries, name sources, map symbols, colors, labels, and map scales are determined.

Armed with all of this introductory data, we are now ready to examine the maps of the world starting with Europe and North Asia and then Asia, Australia and the Pacific, Africa, Antarctica, South America, and North America. At the bottom of each map there are color codes that differentiate the population of the different cities and towns. There is also a mileage scale indicated in miles or kilometers. Also included are detailed and comparative thematic maps, tables, graphs of each continent, topography, population, land use, mineral resources and consumption.

The final section or the World Almanac Section presents key facts and figures about each nation, such as its classification by population and area, major oceans, ocean depths and islands, rivers, waterfalls, continental altitudes, lakes, reservoirs, dams, highest mountains , temperatures, main languages, rainfall, population growth, energy and environment.

When examining facts and figures about a particular nation, we notice that what is included is the following: topography, capital city, date of independence, type of government, who is the head of state and head of government, GDP, industries, crops minerals, life expectancy at birth, literacy rate and link to country website.

This almanac is a magnificent achievement to be savored and enjoyed over and over again. It fills an educational niche and is a perfect addition to libraries, classrooms, and personal book collections, where vital geographic data is at your fingertips.

A notable feature of modern society is the proliferation and diverse manifestations of art. It is not just a quintessential expression of human creativity and sense of aesthetics. It is also a reflection of the values ​​and ideals of the time and of the community as a whole. The problem lies when art or any form of human expression conflicts with the value system of society. For the culture and norms of a community to find continuity and expression, social conditioning is used to instill them in each individual.

Social conditioning by its nature seeks to enshrine what society believes and stands for in almost every aspect of its members’ lives. All human endeavors, collectively known as the Humanities, are supposed to manifest what social conditioning transmits to the psyche and orientation of society. However, due to the dynamic aspect of human expression, the arts most, if not all, convey meanings that are not prescribed by the ideals of society. Furthermore, there are even cases in which many forms of creativity are considered as affronts to social values.

Ideas of what is ethical, moral, fair, decent and acceptable make their way into the minds of members of society. This in turn dictates perception and what people think. However, this is often misplaced and untrained in many cases. It fails to distinguish clearly between things that should be conditioned and those that are singled out because they are culturally repulsive. Institutions and groups in American society often attack pornography as the fundamental catalyst for the erosion of decency. However, these same groups do not find the subtle violence and promotion of atrocities harmful in cartoons like Tom and Jerry or the Looney Tunes adventures. The former is generally exposed to adults who can sensibly discern what or what they cannot act on in the explicit material. The latter freely imprints itself on the minds of American youth. This sows the seeds that could bear fruit in the future in the form of armed violence, disregard for the rule of law and rejection of values.

Society can, in fact, be shaped by shaping what and what is not allowed to enter people’s consciousness. This must be based on eradicating what may be genuinely harmful and not just something that is considered offensive from a particular point of view. Unfortunately, in the United States, the basis of what and what should be conditioned on people is often biased and dictated by moralistic sectors of society. This must be taken from them and placed in neutral hands.

This is not to say that pornography and explicit content, whether printed or filmed, are open to everyone. Most of these materials are treated as adults only and rightfully so. They remain valid tools for human expression and products of creativity. This allows them a place in the social sphere. On the other hand, cartoons are treated as trivial, funny and good for children.

Hello! Are you ready to get much more for your investment in video games? Then start thinking about the latest trend: multiple arcade games in one cabinet, generically known as a multicade.

That’s right. Now, you can have several, not just one, classic games in a video game cabinet.

Instead of just, say, Ms Pac-Man in one Ms Pac-Man game cabinet, now you can have Ms Pac-Man, plus Galaga, Frogger, Donkey Kong and dozens of other classics all in one cabinet.

There are many possibilities for multiple games available in the market. Here is a brief description of some of the most common:

1. Multicade. The original Multicade system consists of a computer and game discs. However, the manufacturer is no longer in business. But, the system still exists, and there may be a new company that has taken over the brand.

Name multicade it is now commonly used to describe almost all multi-game setups.

2.Ultracade. Ultracade is another multi-game platform that features various classic arcade games emulated on PC hardware running a proprietary operating system and emulation code. The company is no longer in business. And the name ultracade it is also sometimes used generically.

3. Arcade Classics 60 in 1. This is a JAMMA printed circuit board (PCB) featuring 60 classic arcade video games.

4. Capcom 18 in 1. Are you a fan of head to head fights? Then check out Capcom’s multicade.

5. Choice of game 10. The Nintendo PlayChoice 10 system can be upgraded to play dozens of classic games.

6. Neo Geo. SNK’s NeoGeo Multi-Video System (MVS) is a widely available cartridge-based multi-game system. They are celebrating their 20th anniversary.

7. 1940-in-1 Multigame JAMMA System family of games. Yes, that’s right: 1940 games and many of the best too. it’s a monster

8. MOM. The MAME (multiple arcade machine emulator) is a computer system capable of emulating practically all arcade video games. This multi-chain setup is usually done only by very dedicated hobbyists.

9. Williams Classics. Several of Williams’ classic games (Joust, Defender, Stargate) are available in a dedicated cabinet.

10. Meeting of Ms. Pac-Man Galaga. This is a great dedicated game featuring two great classics. The game’s PCB (Printed Circuit Board) can be installed in any cabinet, including a Ms Pac-Man cabinet or a Galaga.

11. Multiple JAMMA PCBs. It is possible to install multiple JAMMA gaming PCBs in one case and switch between them.

12. Modified Ms. Pac-Man. It is possible to modify a Ms Pac-Man PCB to be able to play Pac-Man as well, and in the fast or slow version of both.

13. Galaga Switch Ms. Pac-Man. It is possible to add any of the game PCBs to the other game cabinet and be able to switch between the two.

These are some of the most common solutions for multiple games, but there are many others.

An important distinction between cabinets:

There is an important distinction to understand about arcade game cabinets.

Classic games like Ms Pac-Man and Galaga are played using a vertically mounted monitor. While there are some classics like Joust, almost all modern fighting games like Street Fighter use a horizontally mounted monitor.

More importantly, game types are not immediately interchangeable between cabinet types. It is possible, for example, to modify a horizontal cabinet to accept a vertical mount monitor, but the reverse is usually not possible. This is because the cabinets for the two types of monitors are built differently. The horizontal cabinet will be a few inches wider than the vertical cabinet.

The point is that the style (horizontal or vertical) of a cabinet matters – some will work for a classic multi-cade upgrade and some won’t.

My favorite multi-game solution: the classic 60-in-1 multichain:

Today, the most nostalgic multicade experience is achieved with the JAMMA 60-in-1 PCB.

It is possible to take any vertical mount monitor cabinet (Ms Pac-Man, Galaga, etc.) and install hardware that will allow you to play 60 great classic games on one cabinet (see exceptions below).

And, since the game would be a standard JAMMA install, the hardware is easy to repair and will be around for a long time. Also, a JAMMA enclosure is versatile in that it can accept many of the other 100+ JAMMA gaming PCBs.

Here are the classic arcade video games 60 in 1:

1. Ms. Pac-Man
2. galaga

Exceptions:

**Indicates a game that requires a trackball to play (numbers 17, 23, 29, and 31). Whether or not to install a trackball would be determined by the size and configuration of the control panel.

Therefore, the 4 games that require a trackball may not be feasible for some types of cabinets with smaller control panels.

However, all 4 games can still be played with the joystick. Although the game is not the same as with a trackball, many people learned how to play Centipede, for example, with a joystick.

If the control panel allows it, a trackball can be installed.

***Indicates a game that requires 2 (or more) buttons to play, for example a fire button and a jump button. However, most classic games only require 1 button, like a Galaga with only one fire button.

Therefore, the approximately 8 games that require the installation of additional buttons (7 require 2 buttons and 1 requires 3 buttons) will also be determined by the size of the control panel.

When the size of the control panel allows it (and it usually does), the installation of up to 2 buttons (fire and jump) is usually standard.

****Indicates a game (there are 2) that requires 2 sets of player controls to allow simultaneous play by two players. There is usually no room on a classic game’s control pad for comfortable gameplay with two sets of controls (2 joysticks with two buttons each).

One set of controls is usually standard, since most of the classics are played with two players taking turns. If two sets of controls were desired and possible, they could be added. But that would probably prevent the addition of a trackball.

Any of the 60 games can be turned off individually, so they don’t show up on screen in menu selection. Which means, for example, that it could feature only the three games with left-right controller action: Galaga, Galaxian, and Space Invaders.

Use the information in this article to help evaluate the many styles of multicades available. Multichaining may seem complicated, but it’s worth any extra effort. Simply because they are cheap to own, save space, and offer a wide variety of arcade video games.

Wealth doesn’t have to be an endless struggle. Here are 6 easy strategies and tips that are so simple; most people tend to overlook them:

1- Decide:

If you ask any millionaire who wasn’t born this way how he got his first million, he’ll tell you he decided to do it first. You must decide right now that you will do everything you can to get rich. Focus on one outcome: getting rich no matter what you have to do (as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone) and no matter how long it takes. just be good now that many others have done this before and you will too.

2- Budget:

Operate on a tight budget. Eliminate all the things in your life that are not necessary. We spend or waste money on so many things that end up cluttering our homes and lives. You won’t be able to prosper if you don’t make the most of what you already have.

3- Debt elimination:

Reduce or eliminate all debts. If you live in an overpriced home that’s giving you a hard time, put it up for sale and buy something cheaper. If you have an overpriced sports car or SUV and it’s making you feel financially strapped, sell it and get something cheaper.

4- Goods:

Acquire assets. Assets are things you can buy that will actually give you money instead of taking money. If you have more assets than expenses, you will become rich. Some examples of assets are: rental properties (real estate), stocks, bonds, active vending machines, laundromats, antiques, valued paintings, and precious metals.

5-Give:

Rich people are givers. They give from the heart and love the act. One of the laws of the universe is to give what you want and you will have it. If you’re short on money right now, that’s fine. You can still give in other ways; Offer your time or help. Give without expecting anything in return and don’t brag about it either. Anything you do sincerely will be returned to you 10 times from the least likely places.

6- Simplicity:

Getting rich doesn’t have to be fancy or complicated. The simpler a system is, the easier and faster it is to get results. The more complicated things have to be, the longer things take, and the greater your chances of quitting.

The average millionaire today lives below his means; they live in modest homes, drive cheap cars, and are even regulars at the local dollar store. Their businesses are quite monotonous and uncomplicated. These people can live extravagantly, but most choose to keep a low profile. However, said and done, they are masters of self-discipline and make a habit of investing at least 20 percent of their income annually.

What fruits can diabetics eat? In fact, this is an anxious question asked by anyone prone to diabetes or prediabetes. But when you have diabetes, you can raise a reasonable doubt about the consumption of fruits for diabetes and the risk that comes with it. It is partly a genuine attitude to know the factor that influences fruits that help maintain normal blood sugar levels. The American Diabetes Association emphasizes that eating fruits loaded with vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber is good for avoiding diabetes and leading a healthy life. The main key is to worry about the portion sizes of what you eat to add energy to your body.

At this juncture, it is cautioned that canned fruits in syrup should not be considered as a substitute for whole fruits. When you are concerned about the glycemic index (GI) to control diabetes with ease, you must have the right choice of fruits with a low glycemic index. You can simply control your blood sugar level by eating fresh or frozen low-carb fruits. Below you have the alphabetical fruits A,B,C,D described in order.

apricots

Sweet but low carb apricots are wonderful summer fruits that can be listed as the best fruits for diabetics. Adding apricots in the diabetes meal plan is good for the good reason that an apricot weighing 15 grams contains only 18 calories to revitalize the body’s energy. Including four apricots can ensure that one serving provides you with 70 percent of your body’s vitamin needs. Apricots are rich in fiber source. You can savor a delicious salad by adding a few pieces of apricots and cereal to hot or cold milk.

berries

You have blueberries, strawberries, and other varieties in the berry family. Regardless of your taste, choosing berries to consume is good for the simple reason that they contain beneficial antioxidants that help diabetics. The vitamin and fiber contents are low-carbohydrate in nature. Calorie-wise, a small cup of blueberries can provide 60 calories and 15 grams of carbohydrates.

cherries

Cherries are diabetic diet friendly fruits that a diabetic can eat without hesitation because they include low carbohydrate components and have a low glycemic index. They are sweet but barely evolve 60 calories with 15 grams of carbohydrates. It also has tart-tasting cherries loaded with antioxidants that help fight not only type 2 diabetes but also cancer and some other diseases. Cherries are available in fresh, canned, frozen or even dried packages. But it’s best to avoid the canned and dried forms, as they’re packed with added sugar that’s bad for diabetes. However, if you check the label for the amount of added sugar, you can make a good deal of it.

durian

Durian is identified as the king of fruits. When it comes to diabetes, choosing fruits with a low glycemic index is the best. In this list, Durian is a better choice among the good fruits for diabetics as the GI is 49 +/-5 while watermelon is 55 +/-3. Sulfur helps keep blood sugar balanced in blood cells and negates hypoglycemic effects. As such, the organosulfur compounds contained in the Durian fruit stimulate antioxidant activities to maintain normal blood cell sugar levels. Additionally, the sulfur ingredient reacts with thiamin and biotin to promote normal metabolism. Despite all this, it will be safe for a diabetic to consume durian in any form in moderation due to the known high nutritional values ​​in the durian fruit.

One last word: Although ‘fruits for diabetes’ is a good concept that helps maintain normal blood sugar levels, it is best to suggest low-sugar fruits. If you have a craving for sweet fruits, no problem, you’re safe if you eat one or two slices.

In the last two years, two mobile phone manufacturers have consistently provided us with the best smartphones. Apple has always been successful with its iPhone range, while the Samsung Galaxy line has become the best-selling range of devices ever produced. We take a look at what to expect from the next generation of models from these two heavyweights, and see how the rumored iPhone 5 stacks up against the Samsung Galaxy S3.

In the power department, it looks like these two models will be among the first models released to feature quad-core processors. It is rumored that the new iPhone 5 will use the latest A6 chipset that is being developed by Apple. Although processing power is likely to clock in at 1Ghz, as it has been in previous iPhone devices, the model should still offer blazing-fast speeds and great multitasking. An impressive 1GB of RAM is likely to accompany this chipset, which should make the device well-equipped to handle any future software changes that may come along. Samsung has always been very proud of the fast operating times its devices offer, so expect the Galaxy S3 to not disappoint in this area. An ARM Cortex A9 chipset will be used in this new model which features a quad-core processor clocked at a massive 1.5Ghz. This will make the Galaxy S3 the fastest phone on the market and the 2 GB of RAM that Samsung is rumored to include in the model will also make the device a market leader in this area.

It looks like the Samsung Galaxy S3 will come out on top in terms of power, but the iPhone 5 will offer superior display technology, an area that is often much more attractive to the consumer. The iPhone 4S set a high standard in this area by using the famous Retina display, which at launch was the best display available. However, technology is advancing very fast and Apple seems ready to outdo themselves with the new 4-inch display which is reported to offer users a pixel density of 350 pixels per inch. It’s also been reported that this new display will incorporate technology to help reduce power demand by up to 25 percent, which will have a very positive effect on battery life, an area where the iPhone has traditionally suffered. The Galaxy S3 will include a huge 4.7-inch display that will again use the excellent Super AMOLED technology that has been used in previous models. Expect a big bump in resolution, so a pixel density of around 330 PPI should see Samsung come very close to Apple in this department.

There is no doubt that the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S3 will be very successful models when they are finally launched. It looks like Samsung will take a few hits when it comes to processing power, however Apple will once again raise the bar on display tech.

Who doesn’t love business office supplies? They are fresh, they are new and they smell good. And they make those long work days, frustrating managers, and unreasonable deadlines a little bit easier. Yeah, when you open up that stationery closet and find it well stocked with your favorite discounted office essentials, the corporate world seems like a slightly better place. Here are 8 business office supplies you can’t live without:

1. Pens – What would an office be without the humble ballpoint pen? Ballpoint pens are sturdy, leak-free writing instruments that every office worker needs. And you’ll need them not only in blue and black ink, but also in red ink, to make corrections or alert your manager or staff member to something important.

2. Post-it Notes: Post-it notes really are the must-have discount office supplies of the moment. They come in a wide variety of shapes and colors, and are essential when you need to leave a phone message or note on your colleague’s desk, or when you need to mark pages in a long manual or document.

3. Pencils and erasers: Pencils and erasers are more common stationery items in schools than offices these days, thanks to the proliferation of ballpoint pens. However, all offices should be provided with pencils to literally “mark” events on calendars (ie if electronic ones are not used) or attempt corrections.

4. Duct Tape: Duct tape is one of those business office supplies that, for whatever reason, gets a lot of use in your typical office, whether it’s taping down a box for shipping or sealing an envelope more securely.

5. Notepad: No desk is complete without a notepad to jot down the gist of all your phone conversations, jot down to-do lists, or make sure you remember instructions your manager just gave you.

6. Highlighter: Highlighter is one of the great joys of working in an office. They come in a plethora of fluorescent colors (pink, orange, green, blue, purple) and can “beautify” even the dullest of documents. However, in all seriousness, they are essential for highlighting text that your reader needs to take note of.

7. Sign Here Tabs: You can use a regular sticky note or a plastic sign here tab, complete with a red arrow indicating exactly where someone should sign. Sign here tabs increase the chances of your document being approved!

8. Scissors – How annoying is it when you can’t find a plain old pair of scissors to cut out that custom flyer, or unique door sign? Every desk should have a pair of scissors, with an ergonomic plastic handle, within easy reach.

When you have these business office supplies on hand, along with other essentials like printer paper, rulers, and glue, you’ll be the best worker you can be. Happy stationery day!

It doesn’t have to be that way anymore, thanks to modern technology. If you want to learn piano in 2021 or you have children who want to know, the most amazing online piano courses will give you much more varied and delicious options for all budgets.

Despite this, individual piano lessons are still one of the most efficient ways to start your piano journey. If you find a competent local teacher with whom you get along, he will learn in an organized and progressive way, with weekly lessons and home practice in between. However, the cost and hassle of committing to a weekly schedule is detrimental to many people.

Many aspiring pianists look to YouTube for help. After all, it’s free. There’s a lot of video content on the internet, so you’ll probably be able to discover lessons for the songs you want to play pretty quickly. However, there is no guarantee that the videos are accurate and the quality of the instructions provided can be quite inconsistent. With so many options, finding the right classes can seem like a gamble.

This is where the best online piano instruction services in this area can help. They combine the best of both worlds: the freedom to learn at your own pace in your own environment provided by the Internet, with specialized software that provides the structured learning and educational seriousness of a true teacher.

Because they are essentially web-based, most online piano training solutions are compatible with both Mac and PC as well as some Android smartphones. Suppose you connect a MIDI keyboard to your PC or laptop. In that case, the software will be able to detect which keys you’re pressing and which ones you’re missing, allowing you to see how well you’re doing (or not). The location will be able to grade your progress to keep score, often in a trophy-based manner similar to a video game.

What makes learning piano online so attractive?

If you’ve always wanted to study piano but never had the time or found traditional in-person classes too expensive or difficult to fit into a hectic schedule, learning at your own pace in the comfort and privacy of home is a great option.

Today’s leading online piano lesson programs accessible to young pianists combine the best of both worlds: an affordable, hands-on alternative to traditional instruction with access to personalized coaching if needed.

What qualities should you look for in online piano lessons?

The answer to this question is strongly related to what you hope to gain from the experience. Do you know how to play some songs and want to surprise your co-workers at the next office party? Are you a complete newbie looking to rise through the ranks to a high level? Or are you just looking for a fun way for your kids to learn piano fundamentals?

Just about any online piano training service worth considering will suit many talents and goals, from total beginners to expert musicians. The most successful sites combine recorded video content, often organized into courses by skill level, with custom software that provides structured learning with immediate visual feedback and progress monitoring.

Several websites provide a free trial period or introductory content to test if the system works for you or even if a piano is a right instrument for you in the first place.

Another crucial aspect, depending on the equipment you intend to use with the service, is whether the service works with a MIDI keyboard and acoustic piano, or a non-MIDI keyboard with built-in speakers.

If all you have is the upright piano in your parents’ living room, you’ll need a site with proper note identification through your device’s microphone. Still, MIDI support is a must if you have a basic MIDI controller keyboard that doesn’t generate sound on its own.

How does the price compare to individual lessons?

Most websites offer monthly or yearly subscription plans that break the cost of the lessons into digestible chunks. Online sessions range from $15 to $50 per month depending on length of membership and variety of information available, compared to an overall average price of $20 for a typical 30-minute one-on-one class.

On this basis alone, the cost of online classes for a month is significantly less than the cost of a traditional 30-minute lesson per week.

Which MIDI controllers are the best to use for online piano lessons?

MIDI control boards use a single USB cable to power the keyboard and send MIDI data, which tells the computer what keys you’re pressing as you play.

Many controller keyboards do not have their sounds because they are designed to work with DAWs and sound-generating software instruments inside your computer. Still, they’ll work just as well with online piano teaching sites as a MIDI-compatible digital piano or keyboard with their built-in sounds and built-in speakers. https://sites.google.com/view/learn-to-play-the-piano/home
