WhackYourBoss.com: Time for Revenge?

Note:
This post is just for information purposes only, and not intended to promote violence. 


Sometimes (or always) you feel so very stressed and sick of all your work in the office and your boss is pressuring you to finish all of your assignments; giving you loads of job; and the worst your boss always gives comment and wanted you to revise all of your work after all the efforts and overtimes you made just to finish the job, at these times you really need something to calm yourself (or you feel like killing a man?) because you can’t complain and you are dealing with your boss. 

Revenge is so sweet, but you cannot do it just because you might lose your job or the worst you might go to jail. I saw a website with a game (being played by an office mate), that could relieve your stress and at the same time, execute your planned revenge. 

 The website is WhackYourBoss.com the site is created by Tom Winkler, also of doodie.com



The site design may be very simple, but wait until you play the WhackYourBoss game. The game is a Flash game, so you need a flash player in order to play and it is not recommended for children or to someone with a close mind, because it contains brutality and more brutality. 

The objective of the game is you need to find the items that you can use to start the office violence in your office cubicle, in order to finish the game you have to find it all. After committing every beatings, your place will become a complete mess, blood are scattered around and there are times that internal organs may be present. You may need the cleaner to clean the chaos you made, there is a button after every beating scenes.




So if you don’t want cruelty don’t visit the site, but if you want to just have fun and wanted to "manage your anger without harming a soul" (as stated in website A Public Service statement) view the images below and play the game.

Below are some of the screen shoots of the game.





 
If you found the images very fascinating and wanted to play the game, visit the link below.

SUPPORT TO MAKE THE WEB OPEN AND FREE FOR ALL

The U.S. Congress is in view of stopping online piracy. It is called SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act). The law for sure will not stop the piracy but can give a grim threat to social media and sites like YouTube that gives us  freedom to post and view videos (contributed by users) online. In this case the world wide web will face some new security risks and it will not be as open as it is right now.

That is why companies like Mozilla, Facebook, Google, Twitter, Yahoo, LinkedIn and other companies wrote a joint letter to appeal to this law.

Let us keep our cyberspace this way, stop the censorship.

DateTimePicker Essentials in Visual Basic.NET

DateTimePicker plays essential role in the system development; it is very useful if you need to input a date, time or even selecting a date range in your data base. DateTimePicker control in one way or another is comparable to MonthCalendar Control, these controls both allows you to select a date. 

Like any other controls in Visual Basic there are a lot of methods on how you can manipulate your DateTimePicker. Here are some of the essentials that you may need to know on how to use and control the DateTimePicker.

1.       You can find the DateTimePicker control under Common Controls in the Toolbox.
2.       By default a DateTimePicker Format is LONG. (Refer to the image below). You can change the format by selecting the Format in Properties Windows and change the value. There are 4 formats to choose from, LONG, SHORT, TIME and CUSTOM.


3.       DateTimePicker1 is the Default Name of the control.
4.       In order to change the display font, find CalendarFont in the Properties Window.
5.       The default value of the control is based on system date.
6.       To display the DateTimePicker value in a TextBox you can use the following codes.

a.       SHORT DATE STRING FORMAT
   TextBox1.Text = DateTimePicker1.Value.ToShortDateString

b.      LONG DATE STRING FORMAT
  TextBox1.Text = DateTimePicker1.Value.ToLongDateString

c.       SHORT TIME STRING FORMAT
  TextBox1.Text = DateTimePicker1.Value.ToShortTimeString

d.      LONG TIME STRING FORMAT
  TextBox1.Text = DateTimePicker1.Value.ToLongTimeString

7.       You can also add days, month, and year in your DateTimePicker Value. Below is a sample syntax on how you can add a days.

ADDING DAYS
SYNTAX:
 DateTimePicker.Value.AddDays(Value As Double)
SAMPLE CODE:
DateTimePicker1.Value = DateTimePicker1.Value.AddDays(10)

ADDING MONTHS
SYNTAX:
DateTimePicker.Value.AddDays(Monhts as Integer)
SAMPLE CODE:
DateTimePicker1.Value = DateTimePicker1.Value.AddMOnths(5)


ADDING YEARS
SYNTAX:
DateTimePicker.Value.AddDays(Value as Integer)
SAMPLE CODE:
DateTimePicker1.Value = DateTimePicker1.Value.AddYears(2)


These are the basics of DateTimePicker Control. Feel free to comment and ask more about DateTimePicker Control. Happy Coding.
