How-To: Add a Search-able Alias to Your Gmail Address
.Search-able Labels/Alias/Words.
Use a period "." after the plus "+" symbol to separate multiple labels.
EXAMPLE:
username+word1.word2.word3@gmail.com
or
username+anysite.anyalias.anylabel.anyword@gmail.com
If your Gmail username is "johndoe" (assumed to be fictitious), possible multiple labels could be "JAN, 2009, flex" and the email address would be written as:
johndoe+JAN.2009.flex@gmail.com
When searching your Gmail, each word after the plus "+" symbol is a distinct search-able word when separated by a period.
.Spam Deterrent.
When registering for an account at a website you can add the website name after the plus "+".
EXAMPLE:
Registering for an account at "www.anysite.com" (assumed to be fictitious) use the Gmail address "johndoe+anysite@gmail.com"; after adding a date label "JAN09", the address would be "johndoe+anysite.JAN09@gmail.com"
Since you will only use this address for your registration to "www.anysite.com" it is very easy to determine the source if you begin receiving Junk mail via the email address "johndoe+anysite.JAN09@gmail.com".
Side Note: Some site's don't allow plus "+" in the email address :-(
Open a file, an application, a webpage or shutdown the pc.

IMEI, the International Mobile Equipment Identity number, is on all GSM and UMTS mobile phones throughout the US. Mobile companies use the IMEI to identify valid subscribers and their equipment type. The IMEI number can be used to remotely disable the phone if lost or stolen, as well as select data content compatible with the phone.
HOW-TO FIND YOUR IMEI NUMBER
Power on the phone.
Make sure the phone is at the idle/home screen.
Press or key these charactors *#06# (0=zero)
After you press the last #, the 15-digit IMEI number will display on the screen.
Write down and store the number for future reference. Having the IMEI number if your phone is lost or stolen is invaluable.
If the number disappears, re-key *#06#.
As an alternative, turn off the phone, remove the battery, look for a label with the 15-digit IMEI number.
The IMEI can be valuable information when purchasing a used phone.
Call the carrier to verify the IMEI number is clear and not for a lost or stolen phone.

Cornelia de Lange Syndrome also known as CDLS, is a little known and rare genetic disorder resulting in severe developmental abnormalities.
: CDLS Quick Facts :
CDLS is a genetic syndrome present from birth. There is no cure.
CDLS occurs in approximately 1 in 10,000 live births. It affects males and females equally, and is seen in all races.
The severity of CDLS ranges from mild to severe, but all individuals with CDLS share similar characteristics, such as small stature, hands, feet, and head; joined eyebrows; long eyelashes; upturned nose; and thin, down-turned lips. Physical and cognitive development is delayed. Self-injurious behavior is common, and between 60-70% display some degree of autism spectrum disorder. Speech and language are delayed or absent. Limb differences and/or missing limbs occur in 25% of cases. Common medical problems include gastroesophageal reflux disease, bowel abnormalities, heart defects, seizures, and cleft palate.
Since 2004, changes in three different genes have been identified as causing CDLS. These genes are NIPBL on chromosome 5; SMC1A on the X chromosome; and SMC3 on chromosome 10. Changes in the latter two genes seem to correlate with a milder form of the syndrome.
In 99% of cases, the gene change that causes CDLS is sporadic, not inherited, which means the change occurs randomly during conception.
Researchers estimate there are 20,000 individuals in the U.S. who have CDLS but live without diagnosis and/or support services.
As the grandparent of a child with Cornelia de Lange Syndrome, I hope to raise awareness of this rare disorder and in turn, bring much needed support to the affected families.
This awareness campaign is dedicated to my Granddaughter
