  1. 1) Use a yellow highlight marker and draw it over the scratched area. Careful, dry tips can scratch the disc.2) Sprayable silicone oil - sold in Europe as cockpit spray. I read it has a good affinity to the hydrophobic plastic material and a similar refractional index, which is the point!
    Similarly, silicon spray will work. It should look like a mirror finish, but if you use too much the disc will be unreadable. Try spraying a tiny bit on and rubbing it over the surface with paper towel - youll see it hide the scratches as you rub. If you put too much on, it comes off pretty easily with eye glasses cleaner or other mild glass cleaning agent.
    3) Toothpaste, with its abrasive particles can work their way into the scratches. Use a small pointer to rub it into the scratches to bring them closer to the surface and more even with the rest of the disc. Just make sure to clean off the disc when done. You dont want toothpaste flying around your DVD drive.
    4) Try cooling the disc. If that doesnt work, try heating it. This trick will often help you get some more sectors read.
    5) Some have had success with car wax or car polish. Worth a shot if all else fails.

  2. BenQ, a spin off of Acer Corporation, has shut down their mobile phones division, which it had acquired from Siemens about two years ago.
    It was because BenQ Mobile incurred heavy losses a few months ago when the business didnt pick up as well as they had hoped it would. They tried to find an investor to salvage the company, but were unable to do so. Ultimately, they filed for bankruptcy in Germany. The liquidation will leave around 3,000 people unemployed, who will be registered with a local agency for providing replacement jobs.

  3. I just found in CNN and thought of writing this post.

    A scientist is theorizing that the Two NASA space probes that landed on Mars, the red planet, 30 years ago and may have found alien microbes on the Red Planet and inadvertently killed them!

    Since they were looking for the wrong kind of life the Viking space probes of 1976-77 ,so they didnt recognize it, a geology professor at Washington State University said.

    Based on research that where life can take root, it may prompt NASA to search for a different type of Martian life when its next spacecraft to visit Mars will be launched later this year, one of the space agencys top scientists said.

     

    In the 1970s, the Viking mission found no signs of life.But the microbe was looking for Earth-like life, in which salt water is the internal liquid of living cells.

     

    The experiments of the Viking which took place in 1970s wouldnt have noticed hydrogen peroxide-based life and, in fact, would have killed it by drowning and overheating the microbes, said Schulze-Makuch.

     

    It is also said that one Viking experiment seeking life on Mars poured some water on land of mars. That would have essentially drowned hydrogen peroxide-based life, he said. And different experiment heated the soil to see if something would happen which would have baked Martian microbes.
