		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>SACRAMENTO, CA (ContentDesk) April 21, 2004 -? Computer Recycling For Education today launched a national consumer education campaign to promote the proper disposal of unwanted and obsolete electronics in the home, business and government. The campaign features a cartoon elephant called Ewaste Eddie (TM) that proclaims, "Remember to Ecycle-it" (TM)."Consumers should practice proper disposal of computer monitors, computers, televisions, cell phones, video games, DVDs, VCRs and audio equipment when their electronics becomes unwanted or obsolete." said President Al Chaney. "Practicing proper disposal of an electronics item is the best way to ensure that harmful chemicals contained in electronics are not released into the environment through illegal disposal".   Most people think they can just throw a computer monitor or television in the trash when they are finished using it. Many states have banned the disposal computer monitors and televisions from landfills. </P><P>Computer monitors and televisions contain heavy metals such as lead, cadmium and beryllium. Improper disposal of electronics can cause these chemicals to leach into the environment, which are harmful to humans and animals.   The new public education campaign includes a public service announcement and informational materials for consumers, retailers, educators, recyclers, solid waste professionals and municipalities.Information about the campaign is available on the website at: <a href="http://www.computerecycleforeduc.com" title="test" target="_blank">www.computerecycleforeduc.com</a>email:e-mail protected from spam bots916-354-3833 (voice) Contact: Al Chaney. </P>]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>Important Steps in Installing a Satellite Dish With the recent breakthroughs in the communication world, DSL connection has already become a household term. It has already been launched in various areas across the world; however, obtaining a high-speed access to the Internet via satellite is a technology that is still unavailable to many television users because of lack of facilities. At present, the solution to this limitation can now be achieved through the satellite dish network. Whether you live in an area with DSL access or not, you can now utilize DSL technology to the extreme. If you intend to use satellite dish for your homes or offices, you must receive transmitted signals through a clear view of the southern hemisphere. </P><P>You must ensure that your chosen location is free from any obstruction like trees, buildings and other structures that can alter your signal and in effect, cause poor reception. If your site is free from any obstruction, it is not necessary to locate the co-ordinates until later when you decide to install the dish system. When you live within these areas, you can install your dish on a galvanized pole that is cemented in the ground or by positioning it no further than 100 ft. from your area. To give you a better idea regarding this, here are some steps to install a satellite dish successfully and get it authorized: ?First, you must know the satellite service in your location. </P><P>Say, if you live in Europe, you can choose between AFN and Direct to Sailor (DTS). The former has a greater number of channels available but doesn't have worldwide service while the latter has worldwide coverage but has fewer program channels.?Next, you must find the technical information on the satellite that will be used in the whole process. Then, you have to search for the "look angle" ? this is the direction in which the satellite dish has to be pointed to get the signal. ?Finally, set up the system all together by assembling and pointing the satellite dish, connecting and programming the decoder. After selecting the proper location, you have to distinguish where to mount the dish. </P><P>To get the best reception possible, it is advisable that you mount the dish outside your home or office such as in surfaces like roofs, decks, chimneys, etc. Most areas will be pre-wired with the correct RG-6 coaxial cable used in both satellite TV and cable services. You must also pre-install external outlets in each room where the televisions are situated. Take note that you must always install RG-6 cable and not any other type of cable. In addition, you can also place a satellite receiver at the vicinity of the cable outlet in your home or office depending on the number of televisions connected to the satellite system. </P><P>The said receivers are like a smaller version of a VCR that actually processes the signal from the satellite dish to your TV for sharp, stunning, digital quality pictures. If the location that you have chosen is questionable and you are planning to install the satellite dish yourself, you might need a compass and position yourself towards the southern hemisphere. You will first need to know the correct azimuth ? the horizontal direction of your dish and the direction of the communications satellites in orbit ? and your elevation co-ordinance. You have to expect these elements to differ by geographical location.Furthermore, major satellite TV providers namely: DirecTV and Dish Network have "satellite dish pointing basics" on their sites that are established by your zip code. And if you intend to make use of terrestrial DSL, the variant via satellite will perfectly suit you. </P><P>With it, you will benefit both by saving your charges and valuable time. While you pay the low fees for the channels you receive, you can also find service providers that provide you with hundreds of dollars of satellite TV equipment including dish, receivers, etc. for free.. </P>]]></content:encoded>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<P>In days gone by, the family typically spent their evenings watching television in the den or living room, crowded around a black and white television set that may have measured no more than nineteen inches in diagonal size. For decades, this scenario was pretty much the same in most American homes, with the only change being the replacement of black and white televisions with color models. This worked fine for many years, when most cities only had two or three stations, and most homes didn't have cable television. With the introduction of high definition television (HDTV), DVD movies, high performance surround sound systems, and affordable video projectors and flat-screen plasma displays, many homeowners would like to have a dedicated room, or home theater, for audio-video use. In today's housing climate, adding a home theater to your home is a smart move. </P><P>Few homes have a room that is naturally suited to use as a home theater. Most rooms that might be used for such purposes either have a fireplace or inappropriately located windows. By building a dedicated home theater, the homeowner can build a room that suits the specific needs of audio video systems ? limited outside light, darker-colored walls, a mounted screen or plasma TV, and special wiring inside the walls, where it cannot be seen. Adding space to your home is a bullish move, and the extra square footage will add value to your property. You can finance the construction with a home equity loan or line of credit, which allows you to deduct the interest from your tax return. </P><P>And the inclusion of a theater in your house may make the home easier to sell in the future, as more and more families are finding a theater to be a useful feature to have in a home. If you are not sure about how to go about designing such a room, you might check the Yellow Pages for stores that sell audio and video equipment. They can provide you with information regarding what kind of equipment you might need, wiring requirements and so on. They might also be able to recommend a contractor who can do the work for you. The introduction of affordable big-screen televisions and HDTV has made a home theater THE must-have home accessory. </P><P>With interest rates still at affordable rates, now is a great time to add that dedicated viewing room that will make you the envy of your neighborhood when the next Super Bowl comes around.. </P>]]></content:encoded>

The province wide programs is expected to bring in large amounts of electronic items to be refurbished, reused, or finally sent off to the recyclers. This will act as a collection and sorting depot for old electronic equipment in the City of Calgary and province of Alberta, Canada.Such items are currently being dumped into our landfills and are creating a toxic cocktail of heavy metals in the land they are buried in, potentially contaminating the land for years to come. </P><P>The Computers and Electronics Depot is the alternative to the expensive electronic recycling solutions currently available in Alberta. Companies and individuals are encouraged to use this new facility and drop off any unwanted electronics items.

Items that are accepted for a fee only include such things as wooden console televisions, damaged or broken electronic items.The E.R.A also offers a collection service to companies that are in need of disposing of their old unwanted equipment. If a value can be recovered out of the items collected then there are no fees, and 1 out of 5 companies can actually generate a return out of their otherwise non valuable surplus electronic equipment. </P><P>Equipment is refurbished, all data is erased from the computers with technology that matches the highest possible Department of Defense standards. Various other services are being offered through this association of organizations that specialize in dealing with electronic items in the most environmental and socially conscious way.
