myphone just turned off and now everytime i touch the screen it turns off. i am still able to use touch id but nothing involving touching the screen, because it will just turn off and go to a loading screen. anyone know what to do?
I don't know what it is about this office, but it seems everything I touch (doorknob, bathroom faucet, edge of kitchen sink in the break room), I get zapped by static electricity. It's getting old. I feel like that scene in Office Space.
My chair usually creates a lot of static, so the same happens to me. What I usually do is to touch any big metal object before I get up (my desk is metallic, so I use that) to discharge myself. Another popular trick is to touch the doorknob, faucet, etc with a metallic object, so that the discharge goes from that instead of your fingers. Or you can use an antistatic strap, if it really bothers you.
Regarding the physical processes, when you rub against other materials (e.g. a carpet) you can get electrically charged. That's called triboelectric effect. If you then touch a metallic object, there will be an electrical discharge, like a tiny ray, that goes from your skin to the object and can be painful but not dangerous. If the air is dry (like in an office with air conditioning), you'll build more charge because the humidity makes the air ore conducting and you will slowly discharge with no sparks.
I developed a habit years ago of always touching the door first before touching the doorknob, or touching anything non-metallic before touching metal. It doesn't always work, but usually helps by transferring some of the charge to something that's not a good conductor (but hopefully not a good insulator). In Michigan during winter, this is a useful habit!
i have a werid problem that has been occuring lately with my laptop whenever i use the touch screen and click it once it turns the screen off and it goes black and the only way to get it back on is touching it again or moving the mouse and after a few seconds it will return.
The issue you are experiencing might be due to the power plan settings set up on your device. To help resolve your concern, you can consider modifying your laptop's power plan settings by following the steps below:
On the Start menu, type Power & sleep settings.
Under Related settings, select Additional power settings.
Under your preferred plans, select Change plan settings.
Under Turn off the display settings, select Never from the drop-down list.
Choose the Change advanced power settings option.
Expand Display. Under Turn off display after, select Never.
Click Apply and then hit OK.
Restart your computer to apply the changes made.
Go into Device Manager - Select Universal Serial Bus Controllers - Select Generic USB Hub Properties -( Under POWER tab: the one that has "HID-compliant Device 100mA" attached) Power Management - UNCHECK-"Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power"
If you have problems or not sure if it the correct HID-compliant Device, just look under the Driver Details and hit the drop down box to scroll through all those different labels until it clearly says "Touchscreen" under "Bus Reported Device Description"
In Windows, search for and open Device Manager.
Expand the Human Interface Devices heading.
The touchscreen device is labeled HID-compliant touch screen, or similar. Right-click the touchscreen device.
If the option to enable the device is included in the menu, click Enable.
Reinstall the original touchscreen device driver that came installed on your computer using the following steps:
In Windows, search for and open Device Manager.
Expand the Human Interface Devices heading.
The touchscreen device is labeled HID-compliant touch screen, or similar. Right-click the touchscreen device and select Uninstall.
Confirm the uninstallation.
Restart the computer to reinstall the touchscreen driver.
One idle Sunday afternoon, I found myself thinking about Cascada. Or rather, thinking about how I'd not really thought of Cascada for a long time. I'd thought about my primary school headmaster more than I had Cascada, and that's a man I've not seen in 15 years. When did you last think about Cascada? Try and recall it. A year ago? Two years ago? So long ago that you've sort of forgotten who Cascada was in the first place? For the members of Team Cascada UK the answer is probably closer to five minutes ago.
Fandom is a strange thing. Like most things it operates within a spectrum. At one end there's your mum who likes Robbie Williams enough for you to know that you can buy his new album for her birthday every time it rolls round. At the other you've got the Robbie Williams obsessive who's stolen clumps of the singer's hair from a barber's bin and is currently in the process of legally changing his name to Robbie Williams. Somewhere between the two lie Vicky Tassart and Laura Atkins, the women behind Team Cascada UK, a 1400 member strong community of devoted fans.
The men and women of Team Cascada UK know their shit when it comes to Cascada. They know that Cascada is the name of the group, not just the singer. They know that Cascada are the most successful German act of the 21st century. They also know are still touring and recording. They know more about Natalie Cascada, Manuel Reuter, and Yann Peifer than Yann Peifer, Manuel Reuter, and Natalie Cascada do. These are the people who sing B-sides and deep cuts in the shower, the devoted fans who live and breath Cascada. I wanted to find out what made them tick. I wanted to become part of Team Cascada UK.
I was fascinated by how Team Cascada were able to invest so much time, energy and unwavering devotion into one act. In recent years I've become less and less personally invested in musicians, writers, artists and filmmakers. I graze rather than feast obsessively. Largely, I feel no better or worse for it, but there's a small part of me that yearns for that sensation of sustained excitement and expectation that's part and parcel of following any kind of artist. I found myself feeling ever so slightly envious of the denizens of Team Cascada UK. Which is why I got in touch with Vicky and Laura.
I wanted to know what exactly it was about a group best known for big, brash Eurodance anthems like "Everytime We Touch," "Because the Night," and "Evacuate the Dancefloor," that kept 1400 or so people entertained and enthralled after all this years. What I found was a community that thrived on positivity and hope. They're positive that Cascada are an amazing group, and hopeful that there's more material to come in the future. They're both friends and fans.
What happened after that?
They came back to the UK the year after for the Perfect Day tour. Laura and I both went to the Manchester gig, but still hadn't met. By this point we had both been members of the Cascada fan forum on the band's official website. Not long after the Manchester gig, myself and Laura got talking on the forum and then directly with each other and soon discovered we lived only an hour apart. From then on, we got on like a house on fire and chatted every day. We met up in Manchester and became great friends.
Where's Cascada taken you then?
Since that first trip, we've spent a lot of time in various parts of Germany, as well as visiting Spain, Denmark, Holland, France, and Austria. Frank's been amazing and has taken us backstage lots of times to meet Nat, and we've been incredibly lucky and have some amazing memories. We've taken some of the friends we've made through Team Cascada on these trips too.
Is it hard work running the group?
Since that first trip we've seen our followers increase so we both put lots of effort into into keeping other fans informed of tour dates, upcoming releases and such. We love communicating with fans from all over the world, sharing our photos and videos, our tour stories, giving away signed CDs and photos to promote our favourite band.
Finally, what's next for the group, and for Cascada themselves?
We already have more trips planned for the upcoming months, and the band shows no sign of slowing down tourwise. There's new music planned for release this year and we are looking forward to getting behind them and promoting it!
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast? I want this to last
Need you by my side
'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat slow? I can't let you go

I still feel your touch in my dream (In my dream)
Forgive me, my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you, it's hard to survive

They wipe away tears that I cry
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all
You make me rise when I fall
'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heartbeat fast? I want this to last
Need you by my side
'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static

Can't you hear my heart beat so? I can't let you go
Want you in my life
La-la-la-'Cause every time we touch, I get this feeling
And every time we kiss, I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heartbeat fast? I want this to last
Need you by my side
'Cause every time we touch, I feel the static
And every time we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so? I can't let you go
Want you in my life
