Jitsi (Build 3132) – Business VoIP Phone Service | OnSIP

Posted on by

Unbeknownst to many people, there are a growing number of free stand-alone VoIP clients, some of which arent half bad. Today Im going to be doing an in-depth look at one of these free downloadable clients, Jitsi, which is described as an audio/video Internet phone and instant messenger that supports some of the most popular VoIP and instant messaging protocols such as SIP, Jabber, AIM/ICQ, MSN, etc

The list is extensive, but it had me at SIP and Jabber.

Jitsi, which is written mostly in Java, is a free and open source VoIP, and instant messaging application for Windows, Mac, and Linux. Its currently in alpha. Stable releases come out every so often while nightly builds are released several times a day. When appropriate, users are automatically prompted to download and install the latest build (or you can just tell it to do this all without asking).

What separates this application from others like it is the inclusion of enterprise VoIP features such as attended and blind call transfer, call recording, call encryption, conferencing, and video calls.

This version of the application looks and feels great. The main UI is simple and clean, the pop-up call handling screen is easy to use, and the instant messaging feature is handled nicely. Jitsi certainly aims to accomplish a lot. While you can almost expect a few glitches here and there, it is certainly worth trying out.

[ Relevant Sidenote: This review was conducted on a Macbook Pro. ]

As usual, I am going to do a quick walk through of how to setup OnSIP with Jitsi. A lot of these steps apply no matter which VoIP provider youre using so I noncustomers will also find this useful. Youre going to need your user credentials. They can be found in your OnSIP admin portal under users. Here is an example of the fields you will need:

Setting Up VoIP Calling

Open up Jitsi and select +Add New Account under File. You should see a screen pop up that looks like this:

Select SIP as your choice from the options provided in the Network dropdown menu, and then hit Advanced in the lower left corner.

Youll be taken to another menu with 3 parts: Account, Connection, and Presence. Account is pretty self-explanatory. Under SIP id, youll want to input your entire SIP address. Password is your SIP password, and display name can be anything you want.

Next, in Connection, input your Proxy/Domain in the field marked Registrar, and your Auth Username into the field marked Authorization name. Youll want to uncheck Configure proxy automatically if it isnt already, and type sip.onsip.com into the field labeled Proxy if you are an OnSIP customer (Port 5060). Make sure that preferred transport is UDP and that the Keep alive method is Register.

In Presence, simply check Enable presence (SIMPLE) and leave everything else unchecked.

Hit the Next button. Youll be taken to a summary page where you can go over your settings one last time before you sign in.

Go into the Jitsi preferences. You should see a screen that looks something like the image above, with a list of all your active and inactive accounts. Select Audio and make sure that the codecs (or encodings) enabled are G722, PCMU, PCMA, and telephone-event.

Setting Up XMPP

Setting up IM is even easier. Here Ill show you how to get your my.OnSIP contacts in Jitsi. Once again, select +Add New Account under File. This time, youll want to select Jabber in the Network dropdown menu, and hit Advanced in the lower left corner. Youll be taken to another menu with 3 parts: Account, Connection, and Advanced. In Account, input your my.OnSIP login credentials. Skip the Connection section since you dont need to change anything there and uncheck the three options you see in Advanced (Use ICE, Auto discover STUN/TURN servers, and Use Jitsis STUN server in case no other servers are available). Click Next at the bottom of the menu, and then Sign In on the summary page that follows.

At Junction Networks, we put each of the phones we use through a multi-step interoperability test in which we apply ~30 test cases. An example of a test case would be the following:

Test phone calls phone B

B picks up

B puts Test phone on hold

B calls phone C

C picks up

B transfers test phone to C

Call must be transferred correctly to C. B must be released correctly after the transfer. When C picks up, audio must work in both ways between test phone and C. When test phone is on hold, there is no audio between it and phone B.

Build 3132 passed our test cases with no issues.

When I first installed Jitsi a couple of months ago, there was so much static that having an intelligible conversation was impossible. Whatever the issue was, it has since been patched and resolved.

Jitsi supports G.711 as well as the G.722 wideband codec. Narrowband calls sound about as good as a regular landline call.

High definition calls with the Jitsi sound absolutely fantastic. You can get HD VoIP calls as long as the person youre on the call is also using an HD capable device. I heavily recommend using a USB headset when making calls with a soft phone on your computer to get the optimum experience. You can pick up a good headset for less than $30.

For something that costs the end user nothing, Jitsi is a surprisingly good attempt at a unified communications client. I like to think of it as a bare-bones version of Microsoft Lync that doesnt cost me $700+ to setup, and $100 per download.

The main user interface of Jitsi looks a lot like any other IM client, except that you can have a dedicated section for voice contacts in your consolidated buddy list. Clicking on what looks like a small watch face will take you to your call history. You can conveniently redial from this screen. Right next to the watch face button is a search field, which will draw from both your contacts list and your call history. This field will also act as your dialer. Start typing in any number or SIP address, and a small green handset will appear that you can click to initiate the call.

Every contact in your buddy list and call history menus can be dragged and dropped into an ongoing call. What do I mean by that? With Jitsi, every call gets its own pop up window. Its here that youll find all of your call handling options: dialpad, create a conference call, hold, mute, record, video, desktop share, transfer, etc. Dragging and dropping people from your buddy list or call history menu into an ongoing call automatically creates a conference call. This seems to work without a hitch, and youre not just limited to a 3-way conference.

The image above shows the popup window you see during each call. You can have several calls going at once (simply call another number or SIP address using the dialer field in the main Jitsi UI and any active calls you have at the time will automatically be put on hold), and each one opens up a new window. Ill very briefly go over some of the functions of interest.

Youll notice that almost everything you can do with Jitsi is laid out in a row at the bottom. At the very left is a button that looks like an old school rotary dialer. This will append a numpad to the bottom of the window so that you can interact with attendant menus, etc. Next is your conference button. This brings up a window that you can use to invite multiple people to the call at the same time.

The next three buttons are self-explanatory: hold, mute, record (you can designate which file you want to save your recordings in the Advanced section of the application preferences).

Next is the button to turn on the video. Supported video compression formats include H.263 and H.264. Ill admit that I havent spent too much time testing out video calls on Jitsi, but the few video calls I have done (on Wifi, with just the built-in iSight camera on my Macbook and H.264 selected) were better than I was expecting. No experience-ruining frame rate or picture resolution issues here. I did try doing a video call with a coworker on her Counterpath soft phone and we werent able to get it working, despite the fact that they were using the same codec. We will do more testing and Ill update this review with our findings. Also keep in mind that a lot of factors will affect the quality of your video calls, and many of the problems you or I experience may have very little to do with the application. We plan to include video calling cases as part of JN interoperability test in the near future for applicable user agents.

According to the Jitsi development roadmap, there are tentative plans to implement multi-party video conferencing in Q1 2011.

Finally, Jitsi users can easily conduct blind and attended transfers. If only one call is active, clicking on the transfer button brings up a window where you can quickly input the transfer destination and send the caller on his/her way. If you have multiple calls active, clicking on the transfer button will open up a dropdown menu that includes all your active calls so that you can quickly conduct an attended transfer. Of course you can also choose to transfer to another number as well.

Now lets talk about some of the stuff that doesnt work quite as well.

If youre a my.OnSIP user, then you might be used to having the ability to click-to-dial and IM the same contact. You dont really get the same experience with Jitsi. My.OnSIP uses XMMP for IM and OnSIP uses SIP for voice, which means that youll have to have two separate accounts, and two separate contact lists for the same group of people. It can get especially confusing if the two types of contacts for one person look exactly the same. Long story short: Remember to use your SIP account for calling and your Jabber (XMMP) account for IM.

Adding phone numbers to the voice contacts could be better streamlined. Here is what the add contact form looks like:

Youll notice that you only get to specify the contact name. It actually works fine if youre adding a SIP address. If I type jondoe@example.onsip.com into the contact name field, Jitsi will know to use that as the SIP address, and will even cut off the domain in my contact list so that only jondoe is displayed. Adding actual telephone numbers is a little annoying since the contact name field is really the what to dial field. Sure you can go back after the contact is added and rename the number to a persons name but this seems like an unnecessary step.

Since Jitsi is a project that is literally updated several times every day, I dont think a Final Thoughts section is necessarily appropriate. The application has come a long way in a very short time, and there are big plans for the coming year. We expect a lot of updates and fine-tuning.

I would recommend giving this soft phone a download if you do not already have one on your computer, or if youre completely new to VoIP and SIP and just want a way to test out IP calling. Its free so what have you got to lose?

Jitsi: A Multi-Protocol, Cross Platform Compatible Chat, Call …

Posted on by

Whether you are using Mac, Windows or Linux, I am sure you have your own favorite chat client that you use on a daily basis. For some of you, you might even have a audio/video call client that you use to make free call to your friends. Wouldnt it be great if you have these two applications combined into one and it works regardless which OS you are using? Jitsi is the one for you. Jitsi is a java-based desktop client that supports multiple chat and audio/video call protocols. You can use it to connect to the various instant messaging service like MSN, Facebook, Google Talk, Yahoo, ICQ, and also make audio/video call with SIP and XMPP. It doesnt support Skype though, but other than that, this seems to be the most complete app I have ever come across.

The installation is pretty simple. Since it is java-based, it will work on every OS that has java enabled. It does come with an installer package for each OS, so you dont need to run the jar file manually in the terminal. Head over to the Download page and download the version for your system. For Linux Debian/Ubuntu users, you can head over to its deb download page and download the version for your system.

On the first run, it will prompt you to setup your accounts by entering your username and password to the various IM and XMPP/SIP accounts.

Once you have set it up, it will run like any other SIP/XMPP/IM client.

On Windows and Mac, it integrates quite well with the system theme, but on my Ubuntu machine, the java GUI sucks. In addition, this application will cause an invisible JavaEmbeddedFrame window to appear in the menu bar and cant be removed until you quit the app. This doesnt affect the functionalities of Jitsi, but still, it can be rather annoying.

For the chat, there is one feature that I like best: the ability to encrypt your chat session. During a chat, you can click the padlock button to encrypt the conversation. However, this works only when both parties are using Jitsi, else it wont work.

To make a audio/video call, you can easily click the Phone or Video icon below your friends name. You can also click the Screen Sharing icon to share your screen, though I cant get it to work, perhaps due to my firewall configuration.

During the call, you can also toggle Record to start the session recording. All voice calls are recorded in the MP3 format, although you can change it in the Options menu.

As a multi-protocol and cross platform compatible desktop client, Jitsi has done a great work. The ability to share screen and create conference calls make it even better. The only grit I have is with the security feature that can only be useful when both parties are using Jitsi. Other than that, it is rather useless.

Do you use Jitsi? What do you think of its functionalities? Have you come across other desktop clients that can do the same? Share it with us in the comment.

Tor Browser Download

Posted on by

Preserving your privacy on the net is no easy task nowadays with so many security risks and potential prowlers out there.

Tor Browser is a toolset that's designed for anyone who wants to improve their safety and security on the Internet. It can help you anonymize web browsing and publishing, instant messaging, and other applications that use the TCP protocol. For business users, it means that confidential exchanges of information can be kept from prying eyes and for more general users, it means that ISPs, keyloggers and other types of malware can't track your activities easily.

It works by bouncing traffic around a distributed network of servers which it calls "onion routers" (hence the logo). The Tor Browser interface allows you to easily toggle it on and off based on when you need to go online anonymously - there's no need to restart your computer when you've done so. If you want, you can also choose from various proxy tunnels based on a world map which displays exactly where each one is located.

To check it's working, you can use the online Tor detector to see if you're surfing anonymously or not. Connection can take some time depending on how many users are logged onto the network at any one time but usually its very quick. The Tor onion logo turns from yellow to green in your taskbar when a successful connection has been made.

Tor is simple, well organized and effective tool for anyone worried about security or invasions of privacy online.

Everything you need to know about Bitcoin mining What is …

Posted on by

Currently, based on (1) price per hash and (2) electrical efficiency the best Bitcoin miner options are:

Manufacturer

$474.97

$499.97

$33.87

Bitcoin mining is the process of adding transaction records to Bitcoin's public ledger of past transactions or blockchain. This ledger of past transactions is called the block chain as it is a chain of blocks. The block chain serves to confirm transactions to the rest of the network as having taken place.

Bitcoin nodes use the block chain to distinguish legitimate Bitcoin transactions from attempts to re-spend coins that have already been spent elsewhere.

Bitcoin mining is intentionally designed to be resource-intensive and difficult so that the number of blocks found each day by miners remains steady. Individual blocks must contain a proof of work to be considered valid. This proof of work is verified by other Bitcoin nodes each time they receive a block. Bitcoin uses the hashcash proof-of-work function.

The primary purpose of mining is to allow Bitcoin nodes to reach a secure, tamper-resistant consensus. Mining is also the mechanism used to introduce Bitcoins into the system: Miners are paid any transaction fees as well as a "subsidy" of newly created coins.

This both serves the purpose of disseminating new coins in a decentralized manner as well as motivating people to provide security for the system.

Bitcoin mining is so called because it resembles the mining of other commodities: it requires exertion and it slowly makes new currency available at a rate that resembles the rate at which commodities like gold are mined from the ground.

A proof of work is a piece of data which was difficult (costly, time-consuming) to produce so as to satisfy certain requirements. It must be trivial to check whether data satisfies said requirements.

Producing a proof of work can be a random process with low probability, so that a lot of trial and error is required on average before a valid proof of work is generated. Bitcoin uses the Hashcash proof of work.

Bitcoin mining a block is difficult because the SHA-256 hash of a block's header must be lower than or equal to the target in order for the block to be accepted by the network.

This problem can be simplified for explanation purposes: The hash of a block must start with a certain number of zeros. The probability of calculating a hash that starts with many zeros is very low, therefore many attempts must be made. In order to generate a new hash each round, a nonce is incremented. See Proof of work for more information.

The Bitcoin mining network difficulty is the measure of how difficult it is to find a new block compared to the easiest it can ever be. It is recalculated every 2016 blocks to a value such that the previous 2016 blocks would have been generated in exactly two weeks had everyone been mining at this difficulty. This will yield, on average, one block every ten minutes.

As more miners join, the rate of block creation will go up. As the rate of block generation goes up, the difficulty rises to compensate which will push the rate of block creation back down. Any blocks released by malicious miners that do not meet the required difficulty target will simply be rejected by everyone on the network and thus will be worthless.

When a block is discovered, the discoverer may award themselves a certain number of bitcoins, which is agreed-upon by everyone in the network. Currently this bounty is 25 bitcoins; this value will halve every 210,000 blocks. See Controlled Currency Supply.

Additionally, the miner is awarded the fees paid by users sending transactions. The fee is an incentive for the miner to include the transaction in their block. In the future, as the number of new bitcoins miners are allowed to create in each block dwindles, the fees will make up a much more important percentage of mining income.

SOHO and STEREO Sungrazing Comets

Posted on by

The Sungrazer Project is a NASA-funded program than enables the discovery and reporting of previously unknown comets in the SOHO and STEREO satellite instrument fields of view. Anyone, anywhere in the world can become a "Comet Hunter", and immediately begin looking for new comets in the spacecraft data. The Sungrazer Project then collects these reports, performs necessary measurements and data reduction, and ultimately turns the comet reports into officially designated comets.

On this website you can view and submit reports of suspected comets visible in LASCO and SECCHI satellite images. You will find information on past comets found by both instruments and from other spaceborne and ground-based instruments. There is also a wealth of information here designed to help newcomers discover their first SOHO or STEREO comet! In addition, pictures and educational resources that can be used both in the classroom and at home are shown throughout the site.

SOHO is the most successful comet discoverer in history, having found well over two thousand comets since the satellite launched in 1995! What's even more impressive is that the majority of these comets have been found by amateur astronomers and enthusiasts from all over the world, scouring the images for a likely comet candidate from the comfort of their own home. Absolutely anyone can join this project -- all you need is an internet connection and plenty of free time! (See the FAQs for more information.)

STEREO is a pair of near-identical satellites designed to monitor the Sun from very different viewpoints in the solar system. The imaging instruments on STEREO (known as the SECCHI suite) are of similar design to the LASCO instruments on SOHO, meaning that we see many comets in the SECCHI data. Due to a longer data processing time for SECCHI, most near-Sun comets are discovered first in LASCO images, but an increasing number of objects are now being found in SECCHI data.

Follow the "Introduction" links on the left for more information about both SOHO and STEREO.

SOHO's Current Discovery Count is 2,987 Comets!!

Famous Cartoon Redheads

Posted on by

I do admit. I watch a lot of kids' shows. I have a young daughter, and another not-so-young daughter, and they both love cartoons. I get to see a wide range of children's television thanks to them. Some of it by choice, most of it... not so much. One of them is just breaking into the pre-school aged shows, and the other has moved onto other things.

She used to be a huge fan of Playhouse Disney, on the Disney Channel. She was always asking me if she could watch one show or another. She is a big fan of Winnie the Pooh, and there was a new incarnation of that show on The Disney Channel when my oldest was little. With the help of a little girl named, Darby, Pooh and Tigger solve mysteries. Darby is a cute little cartoon redhead, and the show was decent. I just miss the classic Winnie the Pooh that I remember.

Same thing goes for Strawberry Shortcake. She has completely changed from when I was a kid. Her hair isn't even red anymore. For some reason, it's now pink. She wears pink, not red, and she looks nothing like the Strawberry Shortcake from my childhood. It makes me sad in a way, but I guess in time, all things change. LOL!

Rugrats is another show that has been around for a while. My sister used to watch Rugrats when she was younger, and it's still on today, in re-runs, though the kids have grown up some. Chuckie is the scared best friend of Tommy on the show. With his glasses and spiky red hair, he fits the classic mold of redheaded children as goofy, nerdy or strange. Still, he is likeable and sweet.

As my daughter has gotten older, she has moved on to other cartoon shows, aimed at a slightly older audience. Like the crime fighting, Kim Possible, who saves the world, and goes to cheer-leading practice all in the same day. I actually liked Kim Possible; it was kind of cute and funny, and it sends a positive message to kids.

Other shows I have come across, thanks to her, are Dexter's Laboratory, with little, redheaded genius, Dexter, who is constantly at odds with his sister, Dee-Dee, hiding in his lab, creating various strange inventions. Or The Powerpuff Girls, with spunky Blossom, leading the group of super-powered little girls, in an effort to stop the plots of villains of many different sorts.

It seems that I have forgotten more in this category than in any other. Where to start? I could double the size of this section alone!

Let's start with Phineas and Ferb. My daughter loves this show, and I just became aware of it a couple years ago, when she asked to watch it. She now has a Candace doll, and we watch the show together. Not only is Phineas a redhead, so are his sister, Candace, and their mother. The show is sweet and funny, and really sparks the imagination. Even my husband will watch it with me.

Another imaginative show with a redheaded character is Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends. The character, Frankie helps out at the home, taking care of all sorts of strange and wonderful imaginary friends that have been abandoned or left behind by their children. Sadly, this show is a lot harder to find than it used to be. The few seasons that they made of the show can be found on Netflix, though.

My Top 10 Beaches in Southeast Asia | annzventures

Posted on by

April has been a very busy month of travel for me. This was the first month this year that I traveled to four different countries in a matter of 20 days. In Europe its almost that time of the year again- summer. After my three month stay ended in Madrid, I went to London, a city that surprise me so I decided to stay here longer than my original plan of 10 days. Not exactly my top choice for a relaxing vacation but Im happy to stay put here at the moment before heading back home to New York for the summer. But on the other side of the world, in my home country, its already summer. Its been almost a year since I was in Southeast Asia and I am quite missing the beautiful beaches.

Im not a beach person but I spent an incredible amount of time in different islands during my first year of travel. In my short time here on earth, I was fortunate enough to have seen and experienced some of the most beautiful beaches of Mexico, the Caribbean, Bermuda and Southeast Asia including Sri Lanka. So far, I can say that the most beautiful ones are in Southeast Asia. Am I biased? Maybe. But Ill let my photos speak for themselves.

In here I list down my top 10 favorite beaches in Southeast Asia to inspire you to book that plane ticket to whichever summer destination you have in mind or maybe still thinking of going to this summer:

10. Sihanoukville, Cambodia

Cambodia was the second country I traveled solo. So I wasnt a very experienced solo traveler at that time and I was still a bit in shock with what I was doing. Going to Cambodia after a few days in Bangkok wasnt really the most ideal since most travelers would do Chiang Mai instead. After my time in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, I found myself in this beach in Southern Cambodia and enjoyed a few days relaxing on the beach.

Sihanoukville is a party island. So if you intend to go to a beach with lots of party every night, go to Sihanoukville. Since I was tired with my travels, I found myself reading and writing instead. What I love about this beach is that you can do either or both. Thats why it made it to my list.

My Tip: Wake up one morning and watch the sunrise. Its one of the most beautiful sunrises youll ever watch.

9. Ko Tao, Thailand

Ko Tao is a small island in Thailand that is the most ideal place for divers and snorkelers. However, its also a nice island to just relax and have fun with friends. This island has tons of big beautiful rocks that makes its uniqueness much more appealing. I wrote about my experience and recommendations here.

My Tip: These huts on the western side of the island has really nice views, but for cheaper accommodations, go to the south and sit back and watch the most breathtaking pinkish to red sunsets youll ever see.

8. Ko Phangan, Thailand

Ko Phangan is the island popular for its infamous full moon party, but its more to it than that. This island is a home of picture perfect and very calm beaches. I was traveling in this island with four of my friends and its such an ideal place to just relax, eat and have fun with them. We also went to the full moon party but Im not a fan of it so I never wrote about it.

My tip: Rent a motorbike and go to the north. When you get there, you might never want to leave. The water is very refreshing and perfect temperature especially on very hot and humid days.

7. Kuta Lombok, Indonesia

Lombok is an island that everyone traveling to Indonesia should visit. Bali and Lombok are two different islands and Lombok is the island thats also a great surfing spot minus all the tourists in Bali.

I was traveling in Lombok with six other solo travelers that we decided to explore the hidden beaches together. We had such an amazing time despite the rocky and hard roads to get there.

My tip: Lombok is the island made for adventurers. Rent a motorbike to explore these hidden beaches. This island is not as developed as Bali but also not as touristy. Nonetheless, Lombok has incredible beaches for surfers and adventurers.

6. Bali, Indonesia

Ive been to Bali twice. First before the Eat, Pray, Love sensation and the second during my long-term trip. It was quite a big difference ever since the book became popular. Luckily for me, Ive seen Bali before it was even big with solo travelers. It has become too crowded and overpriced. What didnt change though are the beautiful beaches.

Theres a hidden beach between the road that connects Nusa Dua and Uluwatu. The local said its a secret beach which has no name. If you can find it its not touristy and so beautiful. I really loved it there!

My tip: To avoid crowds try to find the hidden beaches close to Nusa Dua or be adventurous and explore Eastern Balis Tirtagangga and Amed. Its not easy to get there on public transportation so I recommend hiring a driver with a car. Amed also has quite beautiful and reasonably priced villas.

**Extra tip: Balinese spa and massage = heaven. If you can splurge, the best spa treatment that I ever had is the one is at Four Seasons Jimbaran Bay. Luckily, I was on a working holiday when I was there and the hotel gave me a complimentary spa treatment. The resort is also my favorite among all the hotels I ever stayed at.

5. Camiguin, Philippines

Camiguin is a very stunning island in Southern Philippines. I was here only for a few days but left me with beautiful memories. I traveled solo here and since its not touristy at all, I only met a few travelers who were not surprisingly, also from Manila. I wrote about my experience in this tiny island of seven volcanoes here.

My Tip: Instead of taking the boat from Cagayan de Oro, take a journey to the quaint town of Jagna, Bohol and take the ferry from there. Take note of the journeys since they only operate a few days a week. Also, this is in Mindanao and its possible that your travel insurance might not cover you here.

4. Menjangan Island, Bali Indonesia

I tell everyone I know whos traveling or planning to travel to Bali to go to Menjangan island. This island is on the northwestern side of Bali and is a lot closer to Java. From the beach you can even see the volcanoes of Java. But what makes this simple island so beautiful is its spectacular underwater.

This is just a sample of the fishes I saw while snorkeling in Menjangan. For underwater adventures this is my absolute top pick. Theres only a certain time that you can stay in this island since its a protected island. The pictures that I have dont even do justice to the beauty of its colorful underwater. I love this island so much that I did snorkeling here twice in two separate occasions during my travels.

My tip: Menjangan can be easily reached from Lovina which is around 4 hours drive from southern Bali. Its about an hour drive from Lovina and 30 minute boat ride from the pier. I recommend staying in Lovina to access this island. It really is worth the travel and I cannot recommend it enough.

3. Coron, Palawan, Philippines

Whenever someone asks me for advice on where to go in the Philippines my automatic answer is Palawan. Palawan for me is the most beautiful place in my home country. You can skip tourist destinations but not Palawan. Its my most favorite place in the Philippines.

I could not believe that I saw the beaches of Mexico and the Caribbean before I even saw my home countrys beaches. I was stunned with how beautiful the beaches of Coron are. Its quite an enchanting place.

My tip: Banana Island, the most beautiful island in Coron is one hour away by boat. To save money, find other people to split the boat with. For more tips, see my Coron post.

2. Gili Trawangan, Indonesia

Ahhh, the Gili Islands. Just thinking and writing about it makes me want to jump in a plane right now and go back. If theres one place in South East Asia that I would go back to again and again for adventure travel its Indonesia. Among the islands Ive been to in Indonesia, Gili Trawangan is my absolute favorite in terms of island life and parties. Its very easy to get stuck in this place. Its too beautiful, great food and so fun. I almost didnt go to Lombok.

This is a small island which can be toured around by foot for less than three hours. There are no transportation available here and running water is not as good as it is in Bali or Lombok. Also, very few places have wifi or internet connection. If you are the type of person who likes being disconnected this place will suit you so well.

This island is also an excellent place for snorkeling and diving. Though the underwater is not as beautiful as Menjangan, this is the only place you can see and swim with giant sea turtles.

My tip: Watch the sun set from the western part of the island. The sunset with the mountains of Bali on the background makes it such a spectacular view for anyone whos watching.

1. Ko Lipe Thailand

If there is paradise on earth, its Ko Lipe. Whenever Im asked among which islands in Thailand is the best for relaxing its Ko Lipe. If you want to experience real island living, this is the place to go. There are no banks, wifi and cars and everything is within walking distance. Its really a place to be enjoyed.

On a very sunny day, youd see how clear the water is. I havent met a lot of people who have been to this island. One should definitely consider. Its truly Thailands best kept secret.

My tip: There is a small island on the south of Ko Lipe called Ko Hin Ngam. Whats special about this place is that instead of sand, the island is made of shiny dark stones. Its very popular with the locals and most Thais come to the island to stack rocks and make a wish. Hire a long-tail boat to get here and see this natural wonder yourself.

There you have it, my 10 favorite beaches.

Are you heading to any of these beaches this summer?

Enjoy your summer and as always happy travels,

Anna

What Is Medicine? A History Of Medicine

Posted on by

knowledge center home primary care a history of medicine what is medicine? Medicine has two basic meanings, it refers to 1. The Science of Healing; the practice of the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease, and the promotion of health. 2. Medications, drugs, substances used to treat and cure diseases, and to promote health. This collection of articles focuses on the science of healing, its history from prehistoric times until today, and the medications and healing methods used.

Some people might call medicine a regulated patient-focused health profession which is devoted to the health and well-being of patients.

Whichever way medicine is described, the thrust of the meaning is the same - diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease, caring for patients and a dedication to their health and well-being.

According to Medilexicon's medical dictionary, Medicine is:

2. The art of preventing or curing disease; the science concerned with disease in all its relations.

3. The study and treatment of general diseases or those affecting the internal parts of the body, especially those not usually requiring surgical intervention.
