Dance as if no one's watching, sing as if no one's listening, and live everyday as if it were your last.
Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.

Re: safety hazards with several uncertified USB chargers
That's great. There's been reports of people dying from uncertified devices. Electronic devices can be made more cheaply if they do not provide a means of isolation/protection.
