In case you think Betty White ain’t got it anymore, or indeed any 88 year old (yes 88). Then watch this. What love about this actress has to be her inflections. By the way this is a Super Bowl Commercial 2010.

Wibble and Wobble

Ahh would you look! You’d want to have a heart of stone not to want these two, I’d take them in a second if I had the space.

They are both only six or seven months old.

The Ballad of Sharon Ni Bheolain

Always been an Anne Doyle fan myself, but Sharon Ni Bheolain has a huge following!

In typically modest fashion, Sharon Ni Bheolain laughs in surprise at being told that she is officially Ireland’s Sexiest Woman, as voted by readers of the Sunday Independent.

“Genuinely, I am embarrassed. The whole thing is awkward for me. I am a leggings and Ugg boots kind of girl,” says the 38-year-old newsreader.

boards.ie hacked – time to change your passwords!

If like me and most web surfers, you have membership to a rather large number of websites which require a password, you probably have a common password you use for them.

I like to keep a common password for sites I don’t mind if someone finds out the password and unique passwords for the important ones. This may not work for you, but each to their own, but even if you do this and someone gets access to data on a website you use, you will need to change it.

Boards.ie was hacked yesterday, boards.ie “as of April 2009 the site has over 1,000,000 visitors a month, 220,000 registered accounts, more than 1,000,000 threads and more than 15 million posts.” (source: wikipedia)

Imagine being a hacker and having access to everyone’s password! While boards.ie do say on their website “While our investigations indicate that individual user accounts are not in danger we have taken the step of changing all user passwords. “, it is a warning to all surfers, mix it up a bit when it comes to passwords.

I find using symbols and numbers and ‘non words’ is a good idea. But at the end of they day you need to use something that you can REMEMBER, but is hard for others to guess.
