FrogPad, Inc. announced today the Coalition Veterans Challenge.
We asked the question, "What can we the people do for those who have been sent to the war in Iraq and Afghanistan and have returned disabled?".
We must recognize that there are no politics in a disabled soldier.
As weaponry becomes more sophisticated, injuries become more frightful and devastating.
These injuries will affect the rest of the life of the young soldier. FrogPad can do something that the big industrial and military complexes have not offered.
FrogPad, Inc. will donate FrogPad products and services to each US and Coalition veteran who requires one because of loss of a hand. FrogPad is a simple one-handed keyboard, which can have significant impact on a veteran staying integrated in the IT workplace.
This is our effort to demonstrate that even a small Hispanic Woman Enterprise can bridge the gap in International relations.
Linda Marroquin, CEO of FrogPad, boldly challenged all US and International companies which have profited from these wars,
"Contribute the same percentage of your company that FrogPad has contributed and make a difference to the future life of the disabled vet." We wait to see who steps up to this challenge. To further support FrogPad's involvement with the Veterans' population, many of FrogPad's current customers have offered to train the Vets.????Pricing and Global AvailabilityThe FrogPad, priced at $169 US. The FrogPad is available today in both left-handed and right-handed versions via overnight shipping from offices in the US, England, Tokyo, Japan, Canada and Germany.
To order from anywhere in the world, go to www.frogpad.com or call (US) 1.713.529.4474.About FrogPad FrogPad has been overwhelmed with the interest in its one-handed keyboard.
Customers are learning to use their left hand to type so they can multi-task and solely use their right hand to move the mouse or draw on a Wacom tablet.
The FrogPad keyboard is the ONLY one-handed, ergonomic keyboard that is 1/5th the size of a traditional keyboard, yet easier to use because it is designed around the 15 most-frequently-used letters in the Roman alphabet.
Unlike a traditional QWERTY layout, whose design was derived from the limitations of 19th Century typewriter technology, the FrogPad offers a logical key layout and design that encourages correct ergonomic posture.
After an average of eight hours of training and practice, most FrogPad users can achieve input rates of the standard 40 words per minute, as compared to the average of 10-20 words per minute by the fastest thumb typists.
Additionally, the FrogPad can be ordered with Bluetooth compatibility for the mobile professional on the go.

Keyboard Workshop Announces Release of New DVD Course Titled "How To Play More Piano Notes Without Reading More Notes"
Medford, OR (ContentDesk) March 16, 2006 -- Most people learn to play the piano by playing just the written music. Playing by written music is exactly what the phrase says it is -- playing the exact notation on a piece of sheet music. But playing by chord symbol is very different. Instead of following the harmony note by note, the musician follows the chord symbols (i.e. C7 or F or Bbm, etc.) written above the harmonies, filling in the gaps with their own improvisations based on those chords.
Chord symbols -- sometimes referred to as "chord tabs" (for example, Cmaj7 or G6 or Fm7) are a type of notation used frequently in jazz and other areas of modern music to notate chord progressions and changes. This type of notation differs from that of classical music in that chord symbols don't show the function of a chord the way the Roman numeral notation does. Chord symbols, for modern music with lots of changes, are much easier to read. They function as a sort of shorthand for change-heavy...

Planning to build a computer desk.
Much like any other piece of furniture, selecting computer desk plans requires a little bit of fore thought. There are a number of questions that you need to ask yourself before committing to a design. This will save some disappointment after the project is complete. Consider these 10 points before getting started. 1.
When planning your office make sure there is sufficient power close to where you plan to put your desk. It is possible to have power points right at your desk if there are computer components that are only used occasionally.2. Use a species of wood that is going to be able to resist the heavy weight of the computer components. A hardwood species such as Oak or Maple will provide the strength needed to resist these forces.3. Using the right species of wood will resist the weight of the computer components but the joinery used should also provide the maximum gluing surface area and thus the maximum strength.
Joints like dado's for the carcase, dovetails or finger...
