NY Times Slurs American-Born Children Of Foreign Nationals As "Anchor Babies"
Research ››› ››› SOLANGE UWIMANA
In an article on New York businesses that cater to new immigrant women from China who have recently given birth, The New York Times used the term "anchor babies" in referring to women who "come to the United States to give birth so that the children would be American citizens." The term "anchor babies" has been identified, among other things, as "derogatory," "racist," "ugly," and "derisive"; moreover, data show "anchor babies" to be a myth.
NY Times Publishes Article With "Derogatory, Even Racist" Term "Anchor Babies"
NY Times: "So-Called Anchor Babies" Are Children Of Women Who "Come To The United States To Give Birth So That The Children Would Be American Citizens." In a June 3 article on centers catering to new immigrant women from China who have recently given birth, The New York Times reported that the "centers largely fly below the radar of English-language authorities," but that in March, California officials "shut down what they said was a home for women who had come to the United States to give birth so that the children would be American citizens -- so-called anchor babies." The article also quoted Jessica Vaughan, director of Policy Studies at the Center for Immigration Studies, (CIS) discussing "so-called maternity tourism":
To Western ears, confinement sounds like something out of a Victorian novel, but in some traditional Asian cultures, women still spend the month after a baby's birth in pampered seclusion. Typically, a woman's relatives would care for her, but more recently, the practice has been outsourced to postpartum doulas and confinement centers, like the one Ms. [Katy] Lu operates. In the United States, they cater to middle-class immigrant women separated from their families. Business is steady enough in New York City to support at least four postpartum centers, tucked away in the heavily Asian-immigrant neighborhoods of Flushing and Bayside, Queens.
The centers largely fly below the radar of English-language authorities -- they advertise online or in Chinese-language publications. They make up such a niche market that city and state authorities did not know they even existed. Jeffrey Hammond, a spokesman for the state Health Department, said that as long as the centers were not offering medical services, they would not require a license. A spokeswoman for the city Health Department said that it had no information on the centers.
But they made a brief appearance in the news when, in March, officials in San Gabriel, Calif., shut down what they said was a home for women who had come to the United States to give birth so that the children would be American citizens -- so-called anchor babies.
It's unclear whether New York's confinement centers cater to that market. Generally they practice a "don't ask, don't tell" policy regarding their clients' origins.
There are no hard numbers on how many women might be using the New York centers for so-called maternity tourism. And nationwide, "we really have no way of knowing," said Jessica Vaughan, director of policy studies for the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that seeks tougher immigration laws. Government agencies and immigration advocacy groups said they did not track such numbers. [The New York Times, 6/3/11]
NY Times Previously Quoted CIS' Krikorian To Spread Fears About "Maternity Tourists" And Their Allegedly Dangerous Offspring. From a March 28 New York Times article on a center in California catering to new immigrants from China:
The State Department, which grants tourist visas, is not permitted to deny visa applications simply because a woman is pregnant.
"These people aren't doing anything in violation of our laws," said Mark Krikorian, the executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates tougher immigration controls. "But if anything, it is worse than illegal immigrants delivering a baby here. Those kids are socialized as Americans. This phenomenon of coming to the U.S. and then leaving with people who have unlimited access to come back is just ridiculous." [The New York Times, 3/28/11]
"Anchor Baby" Term Has Been Blasted As "Racist," "Ugly," "Derogatory," "Pejorative"
Civil Rights Lawyer: Term "Plays To Coarse Racial And Gender Stereotypes." In a piece responding to remarks by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) for the Spring edition of The Public Eye Magazine, Sherrilyn Ifill, a civil rights lawyer and law professor at the University of Maryland, wrote that the term "anchor babies" is part of "[r]eactionary rhetoric," a "catchy phrase that insult[s] immigrant families." She further wrote:
The crude use of the term "anchor baby" to describe a child born to an undocumented Mexican mother in the United States is part of a long tradition of the successful deployment of imagery that plays to coarse racial and gender stereotypes.
It both demonizes Mexican mothers, who allegedly use their newborns as tickets to welfare and other citizenship benefits, and dehumanizes their children as just so much immigration baggage. The thin logic behind this notion is illustrated by Lindsey Graham's claim that the process of coming to the U.S. to have "anchor babies" is called "drop and leave." Either Mexican women are crossing the border to have their babies in the U.S. to obtain welfare benefits, or they are having babies and leaving for Mexico. Both cannot be true.
Of course, no empirical data has ever been presented to support the existence of "anchor babies." Instead the same anecdotes are circulated as right-wing talking points: hotels that offer "birth holidays" in the U.S.; pregnant Mexicans who time their dilation precisely and show up at hospitals across the border. In fact, the Mexican-national parent of a U.S. born infant could not even apply for citizenship until the child was 21 years old. [vii] Thereafter, the average wait time for the successful processing of a citizenship application is ten years. This means that a Mexican-national mother would have to wait at least 31 years for her baby to provide her with the reward of citizenship -- an unlikely motivation for her to give birth in the U.S.
Mexicans come to the United States for the same reason that millions of immigrants have traveled to the U.S. over the past 200 years: economic survival. The impending birth of a child can make the need for employment and a chance at a better life even more urgent than usual. Irish, Scottish, Italians, Norwegians, Russians, and others were assisted by U.S. immigration policies that until the 1960s discriminated in favor of European immigrants. This "affirmative action" ensured that millions of White children born in the U.S. to newly arrived families would never be labeled "anchor babies." [The Public Eye Magazine, Spring 2011]
Fox News' Juan Williams: Term Is "Derisive, Ugly." On Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, contributor Juan Williams called the term "anchor baby" "derisive" and "ugly":
WILLIAMS: When you hear Republicans Lindsay Graham, John Boehner, John McCain saying that we've got to look at the 14th Amendment, and it may be what -- you know, I think it's a rather derisive, ugly term, but "anchor baby" -- that people are coming to this country, illegal immigrants, having babies so that they become American citizens. [Fox News, The O'Reilly Factor, 8/12/10, via Media Matters]
Hispanic Republican Group: Term "Is Equivalent To Other Defamatory Terms Such As 'Wetback,' 'Pickaninny' And 'Tar Baby.' " In a press release demanding that Fox News apologize for using the "anchor baby" term in reference to the child of Spanish actors Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem, Somos Republicans -- which bills itself as "the fast growing and largest Hispanic Republican group in the nation" -- stated:
Fox News Latino is being insensitive and their actions are reprehensible. The term "anchor baby" is equivalent to other defamatory terms such as "wetback", "pickaninny" and "tar baby". Media outlets should never use these demeaning terms in connection with precious babies, and it is unfortunate that we have to inform FOX News of this when they are typically viewed as conservative.
Penelope Cruz is admired world-wide, and comparing her unborn child to an inanimate object is demeaning. The Latino community is deeply offended by the increasingly popular usage of these defamatory terms. Our outrage sparked a letter to the National Right to Life praying for their support to not endorse any candidate in the nation that uses these offensive terms. In fact, our group launched a national campaign that will make a concerted effort to curtail the use of this offensive language. [Somos Republicans, 12/10/10]
Rocky Mountain News: Term "considered by many to be derogatory, even racist." In an August 2006 article, the Rocky Mountain News reported:
She was 16 years old and scared, but Maria Guadalupe Valdez made the two-day trek through the desert to come to the U.S.
Twelve years later, the 28-year- old illegal immigrant is caught up in the debate over illegal immigration, and that frightens her, too.
She and her husband live in a tidy two-bedroom mobile home in Greeley with their four U.S.-born children, ages 9, 7, 6 and 1.
Their youngsters -- three boys and a girl -- motivate the couple to work long hours to build a better life for their family.
But these American children also are a symbol of controversy. Opponents of illegal immigration call them "anchor babies" -- a term considered by many to be derogatory, even racist, because it implies that Hispanics are having children as a way to stay in the U.S.
The thinking is that U.S.-born children of illegal immigrants help "anchor" the parents in the country and keep them from being deported. The refrain is that "anchor babies" help their parents tap into a gamut of free or low-cost social services, burdening taxpayers with millions of dollars in medical care and services.
The reality is that having a child does little to help an illegal immigrant avoid deportation, achieve legal status or gain government services for themselves, experts say. [Rocky Mountain News, 8/29/06]
San Diego Union-Tribune, Reno Gazette-Journal: Term is "pejorative." An April 2006 San Diego Union-Tribune article stated that an anti-immigration activist "dismissed teens marching in Los Angeles as 'probably part of the anchor baby-boom of the late 1980s and 1990s,' using a pejorative term for the U.S.-born children of undocumented immigrants." [San Diego Union-Tribune, 4/2/06]
- Likewise, an October 2008 Reno Gazette-Journal article reported that "[s]ome opponents of illegal immigration call such children 'anchor babies,' a pejorative term that implies the child will serve as an 'anchor' for his or her illegal immigrant parents, preventing the parents' deportations and acting as a pathway to citizenship for the whole family." [Reno Gazette-Journal, 10/19/08, accessed via Nexis]
Journalist: Term is "loaded language." In an August 2006 blog post titled, "Sinking 'anchor babies,' " Chicago Tribune columnist Eric Zorn wrote that he received complaints for his prior use of the term "anchor babies." Zorn responded:
I defended myself -- the term has appeared regularly in news stories since 1997, usually softened by quotations as in my column, and refers to the practice/hopes of illegal immigrants that if their children are born in the U.S. they will serve as an anchor that will help allow their parents to say here. And Doug Rivlin, spokesman for the National Immigration Forum, a leading immigrants'-rights group, said he does not consider the term particularly offensive.
However, Rivlin said, it's a "politically charged term" originated and favored by those who are opposed to liberalized immigration laws. And a quick check through various sources confirms this.
"They use it to spark resentment against immigrants," Rivlin said of his ideological foes. "They use it to make these children sound non-human."
To me, that's good enough reason to regret having used it and to decide not to use it in the future.
Sound arguments don't need loaded language. [Chicago Tribune, 8/18/06]
Data Show Claim That Pregnant Women Are Systematically Coming To The U.S. To Deliver "Anchor Babies" Is A Myth
Pew Hispanic Center: 91 Percent Of Undocumented Immigrants Who Gave Birth In 2009-2010 Came To U.S. Before 2007. In an study examining the unauthorized immigrant population, the Pew Hispanic Center examined "year-of-arrival patterns for unauthorized immigrant parents of babies born from March 2009 to March 2010, to see how long the parents had been in the United States before their children were born. If year of arrival was available for both parents, the analysis used the most recently arrived parent." The study found that "9% of these unauthorized immigrants who had babies in 2009-2010 had arrived in the U.S. in 2008 or later. An additional 30% arrived from 2004 to 2007, and the remaining 61% arrived in the United States before 2004." [Pew Hispanic Center, 2/1/11]
Pew Analyst: Of Babies Born To Undocumented Immigrants In 2008, "85 Percent Of The Parents Had Been In The Country For More Than A Year." In an article headlined, " 'Birth Tourism' A Tiny Portion Of Immigrant Babies," the Associated Press reported: "While a recent Pew Hispanic Center study shows 8 percent of the 4.3 million babies born in the U.S. in 2008 had at least one illegal parent, a closer examination shows that most children of illegal immigrants are born to parents like Garcia who have made the United States their home for years." The article continued:
Out of 340,000 babies born to illegal immigrants in the United States in 2008, 85 percent of the parents had been in the country for more than a year, and more than half for at least five years, Jeffrey Passel, a senior demographer for Pew, told The Associated Press.
And immigration experts say it's extraordinarily rare for immigrants to come to the U.S. just so they can have babies and get citizenship. In most cases, they come for economic reasons and better hospitals, and end up staying and raising families.
Garcia's husband has been deported and she earns a living selling tamales to other immigrants who live in fear of being deported from the slapdash, impoverished colonias that dot the Texas-Mexico border.
"I think that children aren't at fault for having been born here," Garcia said. "My children always have lived here. They've never gone to another country."
Under current immigration law, Garcia and others like her don't get U.S. citizenship even though their children are Americans. [Associated Press, 9/3/10]
PolitiFact: "Having A Baby To Secure Citizenship For Its Parents Is An Extremely Long-Term, And Uncertain, Process." In an article examining Sen. Graham's claim that "People come here to have babies. They come here to drop a child. It's called 'drop and leave," PolitiFact wrote:
It's important to note that having an "anchor baby" won't do much to help a Mexican mom become a U.S. citizen. Because citizen children cannot sponsor their parents for citizenship until they turn 21 -- and because if the parents were ever illegal, they would have to return home for 10 years before applying to come in -- having a baby to secure citizenship for its parents is an extremely long-term, and uncertain, process.
However, having a citizen child can produce some short-term benefits, said Marc Rosenblum, a senior policy analyst for the Migration Policy Institute. Pregnant women and nursing mothers could be eligible for certain benefits under the Women-Infants-Children (WIC) program, which provides food and nutrition vouchers, and their children could enroll in Medicaid, although the undocumented parents could not. Having a child can also help an undocumented parent qualify for relief from deportation, but only 4,000 unauthorized immigrants can receive such status per year, and the alien has to have been in the U.S. for at least 10 years. That means very long odds, Rosenblum said.
Most of the benefits of citizenship accrue over the much longer term. The child will be able to work here legally once he or she is old enough, said Roberto Suro, a communications and journalism professor at the University of Southern California who specializes in Hispanic issues, and when they're ready for college, they'll qualify for in-state tuition at most public colleges. "It is a hell of a lot of deferred gratification at best," he said. [PolitiFact, 8/6/10]
PolitiFact: Data Show "Undocumented Men Significantly Outnumber Undocumented Women" Of Child-Bearing Age. PolitiFact further reported:
There's something else you don't see, [Roberto] Suro [communications and journalism professor at the University of Southern California who specializes in Hispanic issues] said. If having a baby was a significant driving factor in illegal immigration, you would expect to see a higher percentage of women of child-bearing age in the U.S. illegally compared to men of the same age. In fact, just the opposite is the case. Numbers from the Pew Hispanic Center show that in four separate age ranges between 20 and 40, undocumented men significantly outnumber undocumented women. [PolitiFact, 8/6/10]
CIS Has Issued Dubious Study On "Birth Tourism" Hinting At "National Security Problem" Of Birthright Citizenship
CIS Report Speculates That Children Born To Women Admitted To U.S. As Visitors Could Grow Up To Be Terrorists. Though CIS stated in the June Times article that there is "no way of knowing" how many women are using the New York centers for "so-called maternity tourism," a March CIS study dubiously estimated that "nearly 200,000 children are born here annually to foreign women admitted as visitors." The report also made the discredited claim that there is "a national security dimension to the issue," because such children could grow up to become terrorists.

yes I played it on my old ZX 81 spectrum, then on my Amiga 1200, and I do believe Elite plus was released for Playstation 1
Tom OConnell [Blue lights on cop vipers] on
@tomasp3n & ray bans,
Quite amusing that you're irking at the prospect of E:D on a console, when we all played and loved Elite on BBC Micro's, C64's etc !!!
Martin Hague on
you can use key board on the PS3 I have one from logitec , and David Braben has mentioned he would like to bring Elite to the console market and it on pre order for Playstation and Xbox on Play.com, i am sure it can be done
tomasp3n on
@Martin: I have to agree with the sunglasses. I feel for you, but if they announce console versions that would make me withdraw my pledge as I fear it would seriously hamper the game. No offence intended, but to me consoles are one majot reason as to why most of todays games are simplified to the the point of ruining the experice for me.
ray bansSuperbackeron
@Martin if this game comes close to what is expected of it, then it would be horrible trying to play it on a Console, as it would be too complicated for that, and if they made it playable on a console, it would have to be simplified to the point it would no longer be the game some of us are looking for.
Martin Hague on
don't forget the Playstation 3 fans we want this game to

@Karl F: I'd increase my pledge for a Linux stretch goal, but the ultimatum set forth by the user on the Debian forums is self-centered and unrealistic. As a primary Linux user and game developer, reading things like that makes me feel the same way I do about PETA as a vegetarian...
In fact, I'll be increasing my pledge anyway, because I want to PLAY this game, regardless of what platforms can be supported. Long live Elite!
Tom OConnell [Blue lights on cop vipers] on
From the Debian Linux forum :
Most users ever online was 810 on 2012-02-06 05:07
Paul Duffield on
I do find it sad that some people want to turn this into an OS debate (re: Karl F's quote from the Debian forum). I don't accept at all that FD are 'ultra greedy games designers'. I've been waiting hopefully for years to hear that this game will be made and if it was only going to be available on a system I don't run, I'd buy one (Linux, Mac etc.) just to be able to run it.
Karl F on
From the Debian Linux forum the following was said (which is how many people think)
"If the game is not made ootb to run on Linux, it must not be supported in any way, shape, or form. Vote with your wallet and force these ultra greedy games designers to realize that they can't have it both ways. Ultimately, they all must start releasing game versions designed and optimized for each major OS - MS, MAC, and Linux."
That being said, there's an enormous shortage of games on Linux, and many-many-many Linux-gamers hungry to play. People are also happy to pay for games that acknowledges Linux.
Tom OConnell [Blue lights on cop vipers] on
Over £1 Million now ;-)
Paul B on
While I'd like to see E:D supported on Mac and Linux, I can understand the reluctance of FD to guarantee E:D on alternate platforms. I accept the argument that a lot of people here are tech minded and have a personal preference for Windows alternatives, but E:D isn't just being released for us and the 18K or so people represented here are a pretty small slice of the post-gold target market, most of which would be using a standard rig and running a Windows based OS. Companies like FD have to think long term, I'd be a bit concerned if they bowed to pressure from a small segment.
Good work by FD to provide a stretch goal for Mac, OS X is the second largest representative OS for Desktops and I hope that if E:D is commercially successful, the Linux guys will see a port for them too.
Faye Salwin on
I know I left a message on one of the Youtube videos saying that I was backing at £20 because I wasn't sure I'd be able to run the app. I'm gonna put my money where my mouth is and double it to £40 to try to reach the stretch. Have there been samples of music themes posted?
Joey on
I'd like to know how the demand for mac over linux was measured, I don't remember being asked about my preference.
It also doesn't quite measure up with the statistics on the starcitizen feature poll for example, where linux was way ahead of mac. Especially considering how the poll was setup, where you had to choose 3 features and linux was confirmed to be out of reach since the developers don't own the engine.
Simply put, I for one will raise my pledge by the mentioned 15 pounds if linux support is confirmed. I also know a few non dual-boot linux-users who I'll most likely be able to persuade into supporting this project when a linux build is certain.
Maalak on
Thank you for your answers Michael, they were simple as I wanted them to be and very interesting.
I'm not very fond of multiplayer game.
The main point about my questionning was about exploration as you talked about.
Knowing that I will have possibility of interaction with alien races (and maybe the possibility to steal their ships ? :p) as I will go far away in the galaxy (the fact they will not be in contact right from te start like they unfortnately were in the first Elite is also a very good point : they must be discovered and contact with them must be hard-earned) is undoubtly a very good appealing possibility that should be announced more clearly and that will certainly help me to rise significantly my pledge. :)
The Blackster on
Nice work guys.
Tom OConnell [Blue lights on cop vipers] on
If I'm being honest, I'd much rather see a console based Elite:Dangerous in the stretch goals than Linux, and I'm sure there would be significantly more backers for a console version than Linux
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Maalak
I'm not sure what you mean? Elite: Dangerous is a new game, it has it's roots in the previous games, but is a different take on it. The galaxy around you evolves, you can play with your friends. We are widening what you can do, for example making exploration a more prominent role.
Jos Ewert on
If they use OpenGL for the 3D stuff, SDL for input, window management and sound, maybe OpenAL for more complex 3D sound, Posix for the file handling etc, they pretty much get a working Linux version too. As Ryan C. Gordon (who ports games for a living) said, once you have the platform independence worked into your code, all you need is one person to dedicate some of his time to his port and otherwise just works on the game like everyone else.
So I'm not sure if only doing a Mac version but skipping a Linux version gives much of an advantage work and cost wise. Maybe there's a more Mac way of doing these things which locks them more tightly into that platform.
(for those that are wondering here's the interview http://cheerfulghost.com/panickedthumb/posts/771)
Maalak on
No, I meant Elite 3.
To be clearer ; will E:D only be a (possible, not obligatory) multiplayer version of Elite 3 with enhanced graphics ?
What will be the brand new features (except multiplayer game) ? That's still unclear for me.
The main change I see is the possibility to fight in an asteroid field and more spacecrafts involved in the fight (that's already a great thing, I conceed it).
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Maalak
A Linux version may still see release if it makes sense to do, the same as other platforms that have been requested.
We'd still like some news and information services in the game, they probably won't be newspaers but will fill the same purpose.
Humans remain the dominant sentient species in the galaxy. The Thargoids are still around but play a lesser role, but we have some ideas for them. Of course most of the galaxy is unexplored so other races may be found.
We intend to support as wide a range of controls as possible, we tend to use controllers, but we won't be limiting the game to just that input method.
I doubt you'll be able to access the Lynx carriers in the initial version of the game, but it might come later.
You will have the core interactions when docked - news, trading and so forth. We'll see what else get added, but that might have to wait until you can walk around the stations.
There's actually quite a lot of information about the game and I'm happy to answer questions if I can. Watching the videos will also give you more information.
The game can be played single or multiplayer, you can battle, trade and explore. There are prcodeural and scripted missions. You play in an evolving galaxy (assuming you choose to connect to the server), so the universe around you changes depending on yours and other players actions.
In all of my updates I encourage people to welcome others, we are well aware that we need more backers, but we're also aware of the strong support we receive from our existing backers.
As for localised versions of the game that is liekly, we tend to localise all of our games. For the novel that is less likely, but if there's enough demand for it we can look into it.
Maalak on
Nice update for Mac users, but if you mind me, I would say that adding a stretch goal for a linux version would have been even better considering that they linux users seem to be far more generous for what I have seen in the different humble bundles those last months.
What I would like to see myself in next update is more informations about the game : what about the newspapers we got in Elite 2 ?
Will there be many alien creatures like Elite 1 or will we have a human-only universe - maybe safe some legendary creature called Tharghoïds - like Elite 2 ? You say it's wait and see in the Q&A, but that's light as a response.
What kind of controls will suit the most with the game ? Mouse, joypad or dedicated to flight-sims joystick ?
Will we be able to get the Lynx Carriers we could see in Elite 2 ?
What kind of interactions will we have while docking ?
And so on ...
We actually have very few informations about the game, so all we have to suppose is that it will be a solo with possible multiplayers Elite 3 game with updated graphics and without space-to-planet entrance possibility at the lauch of the game.
So go on, give us some new features that would appeal more subscribers.
You actually rely too much on people that have already backerd the game ("if everyone pledged another £15 we'd hit our target"), but we also desesperatly need new backers, so give them some dream so they will pledge at last. :)
PS : about your novel, will there be traductions (french at least :p, spanish, german, etc.) ?
Oh, and same question about the game itself while I'm at it.
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Tom OConnell
There will be mining options, tomorrow's dev diary will have more details.
Craig Austin on
Just out of curiosity - regarding a comment halfway down - how did you measure demand for the various platforms? Make no mistake, I'll be happy to just get a Windows version, but I will be ecstatic to get a Linux version. But to my memory, I don't recall putting my name down against a particular platform, so until this post, no one knew I would be a Linux backer.
Tom OConnell [Blue lights on cop vipers] on
@Michael, could you give us a bit more info on the explorer option, I'm assuming the Cobra will have fuel scoops for refilling the tanks ?
Günther Hutzl on
I desperately want a Linux version, too. I have pledged with the hope for getting a Linux version or at least a windows version that runs under wine. But that does not justify increasing my pledge more than what I have already done. I could end up with a game that I could never play. I will increase my pledge significantly as soon as Linux support is official and I could imagine many Linux users would do the same.
Please add a Linux stretch goal!
Thank you!
Chris Brind on
@Ian Magill - modern day cross platform development is a lot easier than 8-bit cross platform development. There was virtually no way to share code on those platforms, but it's relatively trivial to do it on modern platforms.
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Chris Brind
I'm not sure to be honest, I would imagine it would be a native port tomake best use of the engine architecture.
Chris Brind on
How will the Mac implementation be done? Will it be a native port (e.g. because your using OpenGL) or will be in a Cider/Wine wrapper?
Alexander R on
Meaning the front page kickstarter video.
Alexander R on
Yes another vote here for adding the Windows and Mac icons to the image above shown in the video frame. Look at what the Godus team did to theirs.
Ian Magill on
That's exactly right Michael, I browse this site all the time on my I-phone but my gaming platform is PC, what a lot of the Linux guys don't seem to realise is Frontier have already said other platforms will exist after the PC version is complete but their chances of that are ZERO if the original goal is not met!!!
This is not an uncommon thing, I remember way back many a time when I had the poor old Spectrum 48k having to wait ages for the Commodore 64 games to be released on Speccy, it sucked so mug I eventually bought one :)

@ Phil Hibbs
We use a variety of stats, browser stats on their own are not a reliable indicator, for example many people browse on their iPads.
Phil Hibbs on
Have you checked the Browser ID OS stats from the Frontier web site to see what proportion of your users are on what platform?
Stéphan' M. on
Possibly, should be put a little "sticker" on the top screen for Elite Kickstarter campain, to show the supported platforms, would make it easier to understand for the "general public."
Wim Scheyltjens on
just upped my pledge to £70
Chi-Ho Lam on
Easy choice then - Pledge upped to £42 Pirate!
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Chi-Ho Lam
Yes, you can pick one of the options when you start a new game.
Tony Porter on
Looks like I'll have to up my pledge to get that Mac version!
At least we have confirmation that a Mac version will be made, just need to reach the goal...
Chi-Ho Lam on
Just to be clear - for the kickstarter starting options - if I Pledge for the Pirate (£42) - will that also give me the option to start as Trader (£37) and Bounty Hunter (£32) as well? As it says 'plus all the rewards above' it would suggest that it would - but wanted to check.
Frontier Developments Creator on
I think they're all very similar, the explorer option is probably the most difficult as starting away from inhabited systems brings a risk. Although some good rewards as well if you like exploring.
Bounty hunting is relatively easy to get started, you start with a fighter and off you go. The same for the trader, you have a hold full of cargo and off you go.
Pirate is a little trickier as you are target from the very start, however you get a better ship help get you started.
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Fiachra Mac Aodha
Unfortunately the boxed sets and the upgrades are different fulfilment chains so require separate shipping. Although any pledge upgrades can be put together in a single order.
Frontier Developments Creator on
@ Adam Simmons
We're not ignoring any market, we've received a lot of interest in a mac version, so it made sense to include that as a stretch goal after making sure we could fulfil that task. Other platforms, including Linux remain a possibility for the future.

- I find that having a specific space for every item keeps me organized in my little dorm room. I also move a lot so paring down my items to the things I love makes my space better. I find that buying posters and prints is an easy way to personalize and pack light.
- In modern homes, bedrooms have become more than just a place to sleep; they can be a retreat, a home office, a library, a relaxation zone. What are some ways you make the most of your bedroom?:
- Since this is a dorm room I do a little bit of everything in here. I have my desk at the end of my bed to keep studying and relaxing a smooth transition. My landing pad is also my exit pad towards the kitchen so I have drinks, colour coded calendar, my tea collection and dirty dishes there.

The Clean Water Program's monitoring is directed by management questions such as:
- Is urban runoff a significant contributor of pollution?
- Are our creeks healthy?
- How can we restore creeks?
- Are program actions making a difference?
- Is it safe to play in the creeks?
Starting in 1989, water quality monitoring in creeks and storm drains helped the program focus its best management practices and public education. In the late 1990s the program began assessing watershed conditions through biological monitoring and stream surveys (BAMBI). We also worked on special studies to identify problem pesticides in creeks and test effectiveness of Best Management Practices.
Since 2000 the Clean Water Program and other bay area stormwater managers have increased efforts to find and address sources of Pollutants of Concern. Under the Municipal Regional Permit, the program will collaborate with other bay area counties in a comprehensive monitoring program starting in fall 2011.
The program also participates in the Regional Monitoring Program for Water Quality in the San Francisco Estuary. The RMP performs regular Status and Trends monitoring throughout the Bay, and also sponsors special studies to strategically address specific water quality problems and information gaps.

All signs in Minnesota point toward Matt Cassel as the starting quarterback when the Vikings kick off the 2014 season, but the Vikings aren't in any hurry to make that an official designation.
Coach Mike Zimmer said Tuesday that the competition between Cassel, first-round pick Teddy Bridgewater and Christian Ponder will continue into training camp. Zimmer said he wants to make sure there is a "legitimate" shot for each man to make his best case before narrowing down the reps on the way to naming a starter. The closest thing Zimmer offered for a timeline was that "it won't be for a while."
"The thing that I want to guard against most is rushing into a decision where we make a decision quickly as opposed to making the correct decision," Zimmer said, via USA Today. "So, our main focus now is making the correct decision, not so much for the fans or the media or anybody else on this football team. And that's really in regards to all the positions, not just the quarterback position."
Unless there's a major change in thinking between now and the start of camp, you'd expect Cassel to be under center for the first snap of the summer and that the big decision for the Vikings will be how much rope to give him before Bridgewater moves up to the first team. The longer it takes to name a starter, the likelier it will seem that Bridgewater's day is coming sooner rather than later.

Giuseppe Verdi was always fascinated by the plays of Shakespeare; he wrote three operas based on them, and contemplated a fourth (based on King Lear) but was never able to find the proper libretto. Macbeth was the earliest of these Shakespeare adaptations, and a work which never quite satisfied the composer. The first version of the opera premiered in 1847 in Florence, but the version best known today is the revision the composer made for the 1865 Parisian revival. The changes include a new aria for Lady Macbeth in Act Two, the addition of a ballet scene for the witches, and the removal of Macbeth's death scene. In nearly every scene, there are at least some minor changes.
There is a famous letter in which Verdi states that Lady Macbeth must not have a beautiful voice, but must portray the evil of her character. It is difficult to reconcile this statement with the music he composed for her, which is some of the most florid, difficult, and dramatic of his career. Her entrance begins with a spoken reading of the letter from Macbeth, followed by a recitative. In her Sleepwalking scene, we find Verdi at his most dramatic, with the vocal line being more spoken than sung, yet at the end she is required to rise to a high D flat as softly as possible. The title role, while not as complex, requires considerable dramatic flair, as well as the bel canto line to bring off his aria, "Pietà, rispetto, amore." Of the secondary characters, Macduff and Banquo are most notable, and both have lovely arias.
Shakespeare's three witches become a three-part chorus whose music inspires more laughter than fear in this setting. Choruses denouncing tyranny often brought out the best in Verdi, and so it is not surprising that the patriotic choral outcry before Macduff's aria is among the strongest pieces in the work. The ballet music written for the premiere of the revised version in Paris is usually omitted today without much harm to the score.
The performance history of Macbeth was relatively sparse until it was revived in German in the 1930s; since that time the opera has had continued success, although it did not reach the Metropolitan Opera until 1959. Part of the problem was the casting of Lady Macbeth. Although it asks for high Cs, and even a D flat, in the Sleepwalking scene, the role lies very low for most sopranos. The early German revivals often cast the role with a mezzo-soprano; today the role is entrusted to any singer who feels that she can adequately portray the role. Two of the greatest singing actresses of the twentieth century had a great success with the role: Maria Callas (although she only sang it five times) and Leonie Rysanek (who sang the Metropolitan Opera premiere). In its best moments, Macbeth conveys all of the drama of Shakespeare and melds it with some of Verdi's finest music.
Libretto - Francesco Maria Piave, after the tragedy by William Shakespeare Original Design - Tanya McCallin Original Lighting Design - Davy Cunningham
Act IĀThree witches appear andĀdescribe their evil deeds. When they hear aĀdrum heralding MacbethÆs approach, they break into dance andĀsong. Macbeth andĀBanco, two generals inĀDuncanÆs army, arrive. TheĀwitches greet Macbeth as Thane ofĀGlamis, Thane ofĀCawdor andĀKing ofĀScotland; they hail Banco as theĀfather ofĀfuture kings. Messengers arrive toĀannounce theĀfulfillment ofĀtheĀfirst prophecy. To BancoÆs alarm, Macbeth reflects onĀgaining theĀthrone. Lady Macbeth reads aĀletter from Macbeth telling her ofĀhis victory inĀbattle andĀofĀtheĀwitchesÆ prophecy. She revolves toĀhelp him fulfil it. When aĀmessenger announces that theĀKing is onĀhis way toĀtheĀcastle with Macbeth, she realises they must act that night andĀcalls onĀtheĀpowers ofĀevil toĀhelp her. Macbeth appears, andĀhusband andĀwife quickly agree toĀtheĀmurder. King Duncan andĀhis retinue arrive. AĀvision ofĀaĀdagger prompts Macbeth toĀgo andĀkill Duncan. But when he returns, wracked with remorse, his wife accuses him ofĀcowardice. She snatches theĀdagger andĀgoes off toĀtheĀKingÆs rooms toĀincriminate theĀguards, returning with bloody hands toĀher now guilt-stricken husband. Macduff andĀBanco appear. While Macduff goes toĀwake theĀKing, Banco reflects onĀtheĀstormy night. Macduff discovers theĀmurder andĀwakes theĀhouse. Everyone vows vengeance onĀtheĀunknown assassin.
Act IIĀMacbeth is now King ofĀScotland andĀDuncanÆs son Malcolm, blamed for his fatherÆs death, has fled toĀEngland. Because theĀwitches prophesied that Banco would be aĀfather ofĀkings, Macbeth andĀhis wife now plot toĀkill him andĀhis sons; Lady Macbeth is triumphantģ Assassins inĀMacbethÆs service wait for Banco inĀtheĀdark. He andĀhis son Fleanzio arrive, Banco uneasy with foreboding. Banco is murdered but his son escapes.ĀMacbeth andĀhis queen welcome guests toĀaĀfeast andĀshe proposes aĀtoast. AnĀassassin arrives andĀtells Macbeth what has happened inĀtheĀpark. Macbeth offers an explanation for BancoÆs absence, but when he goes toĀsit down he sees theĀghost ofĀBanco. Lady Macbeth tries toĀcalm her husband andĀtheĀtroubled guests. TheĀghost reappears andĀLady Macbeth is unable toĀcontrol her demented husband. TheĀScottish nobles fear their land is now inĀtheĀgrip ofĀcriminals andĀMacduff decides toĀjoin theĀexiles.
Act IIIĀOn aĀstormy night theĀwitches invoke evil spirits as they brew their magic potions. Macbeth arrives andĀasks them toĀprophesy his destiny. InĀresponse they conjure up three apparitions who, inĀturn, warn him toĀbeware ofĀMacduff, that he need fear ænone born ofĀwomanÆ, andĀthat he will invincible until Birnam Wood marches onĀhis castle. TheĀwitches then summon theĀapparition ofĀeight kings who pass Macbeth, followed byĀBanco carrying aĀmirror. Terrified, Macbeth recognises them as BancoÆs descendants. Macbeth faints andĀtheĀwitches dance round him, then disappear. Recovering, he vows toĀdestroy Macduff andĀhis family.
Act IVĀScottish refugees lament theĀsuffering ofĀtheir oppressed homeland andĀits wretched people. Macdufff is distraught at theĀnews ofĀhis wifeÆs andĀchildrenÆs murders. Malcolm arrives, leading aĀtroop ofĀEnglish soldiers, andĀurges Macduff toĀfind comfort inĀexacting revenge. Malcolm rallies theĀrefugees toĀjoin forces inĀattacking Macbeth, using branches from theĀwood as camouflage.ĀLady Macbeth, who has taken toĀsleepwalking, describes andĀrelives theĀatrocities she andĀher husband have committed. Macbeth, inĀdesperation, awaits theĀadvancing troops andĀreflects onĀhis impending downfall. He is so distraught that he fails toĀreact toĀtheĀnews ofĀhis wifeÆs death. When soldiers announce that Birnam Wood is onĀtheĀmove, he recalls theĀwitchesÆ prophecy. AĀbare field. English soldiers carrying branches are advancing. Macbeth appears, pursued byĀMacduff. TheĀother two prophecies are now fulfilled: Macduff reveals that he was not born naturally but surgically removed from his motherÆs womb; inĀtheĀensuing fight Macbeth falls toĀMacduffÆs sword. Malcolm is proclaimed King.

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a good ISP in the UK. I am on NTL at the moment and their dial up service is very very slow. I do not want the expense of broadband. All the ISPs I look at require a BT line. Are there any good ISPs out there that offer a (£12.99 per month approx) dial up service through NTL?

I want to use the IPTV technology to transmit some channels. Therefore I consider to become full service provider. For my purpose I see possibilities in the market.
However I am not computer engineer, so, it is quite difficult to make some more progress
Can someone suggest me something about this, maybe there are companies that can help a lot, like selling a complete servers for service providers.
Second question is can I transmit by using servers about 5Mbps to downloaders ( the users should not notice it too much in the sense they should have enough bandwidth for other things , e.g. when someone has 30 Mbps for downloading) .
You want to look at companies that sell dedicated servers. Basically, you rent the server, put whatever applications you want on it, and they provide the data center and Tier I Internet connection. Optionally, you can go with a colocation provider. It's very similar, except you provide the servers, which you put in a partial rack (meaning you're buying rackmount servers) or cage at their data center. This does require you to be close to the data center, since they won't touch your servers for any reason unless you pay them (it's know as "remote hands"), and then only to reset, power cycle, or plug/unplug something. If you rent a server, it data center could be located anywhere in the world since you will only access it remotely.
The big cost is going to be bandwidth. IPTV is a very bandwidth-intensive service, and in either case, you pay for every data packet received or transmitted from the server. The total bandwidth required is equal the number of concurrent downloaders. If ten people are downloading at 5Mbps, you are feeding 50Mbps. If a hundred people are downloading at 5Mbps, you are feeding at 500Mbps.

After a storm a couple of days ago, we lost all internet service. I contacted my ISP (over and over...) and have been told that their remote checks reveal that we ARE geting service.
All the lights on the cable modem are on. The operator was able to 'refresh' it remotely.
We have tried connecting two different laptops directly to the modem (bypassing the WIFI) with an ethernet cable, and neither was able to access the internet. We have tried with 5 wireless devices (after reconnecting the wireless router) and cannot access the internet; however, the wireless network DOES show up.
A windows 8 diagnostic indicated that the computer was getting no IP address.
The ISP is adamant that this is OUR problem. I will be happy to provide more details, but I am not a techie and don't know where to start. Can anyone please help?? My thought is that the modem is not working properly...
Sure does sound like a modem problem.
Have you tried a long power cycle (unplug the modem for 30 minutes, then plug it back in) or a hard reset (see the modem manual)? Do you own the modem or is it provided by the ISP? If the ISP owns the modem, then insist they replace it.

Hello michael4321, and welcome to Bleeping Computer!!
I read on http://www.file.net/prozess/wmiprvse.exe.html that my file size of wmiprvse.exe of 372.736 Bytes equals
one of the sizes under the section Viren mit gleichem Dateinamen which translates to english Viruses with same filename...
A couple of things here: I don't find file.net to be the best source of technical information because it's not always accurate. More importantly, I don't see the filesize of 372736 anywhere on that page! Where exactly do you see that number?
It's common for that service to spike CPU usage sometimes, and 3%-25% is not a problem if it comes back down again. If it's 25% all the time, then I would start to worry.
But there's an easy way we can quickly get several opinions on that file:
Go to VirusTotal.com
Click the "Choose File" button.
Navigate to the file WmiPrvSE.exe and click Open.
Click the "Scan It" button (***Note: If it says this file has already been scanned, please click "Reanalyze").
When it is finished scanning please provide a link to the results page in your next reply.
I scanned my system with malwarebytes anti malware
Was anything detected?? If so, please copy and paste the logfile into your next reply. If you don't know where to find it, let me know!
Depending on the VirusTotal results, we'll go from there.
Do you have any other problems with your computer?
Dear all,
I have several servers running. Everytime when our ISP goes down, our whole company come to almost a halt. We do have a back up ISP that we didn't utilize because of configurations problem. By the time we finish configuring to use our backup ISP, all work that are not save on the server would have already been lost. And yes, some of our server are off site as we have many branches.
I want to use our primary ISP whenever possible unless it is down or when signals drop frequently. I have heard about load balancing device. I believe it is a router with load balancing capabilities. If so, I have another problem. We have multiple email server and web server that are serving different purposes. The router would have to be able to support VPN to multiple locations, able to support multiple servers, and servers providing same service on the same port number.
Does anyone know of any solutions?
Here is a summary of requirements:
- Able to support VPN to multiple locations
- Able to support VPN to netopia router (from history, the company has problem using ciisco router to connect to a remote site because the remote site is using netopia. Unsure what the actual problem was as I wasn't employed at the time)

Not sure if this is the right place or even possible but here goes.
I visit a forum and on the forum next to any post you make it also shows part of your service provider e.g. ---.zone4.bethere.co.uk or ---.hsd1.or.comcast.net. my question is is there a way to stop this or make it display something else?
I ask because my service provider is very specfic and i don't want people who use the site to know my provider (for reason i dont want to go into lol this sounds liek a weird thing its nothing dodgy or weird i promise!)
anyway is there a way to not have it displayed (there is no option on the forums) or have it show something different.
That's apparently a forum thing for that specific forum. They obviously query the available information for your ISP and display it for some reason. There may be a configuration in your account options to hide it, have you checked? Are you SURE that it's publicly displayed? It might just be visible to you and perhaps board administration.
If you post a link to one of your posts, we can tell you if a guest can also see it.
Say a person does not want to pay a service provider anything. Is it possable
for that person to get an email address and use it. I thought that Juno had

for that. Is there any other service that would provide absolutely free

I recently received a new wireless modem/router from my provider in Germany (I am an expat). My Vpn no longer works really, very slow which leads me to believe, (as well as picking up on a few things online) that "Telekom" provider has done something somehow to block or seriously slow down VPNs.
I have no idea what they have done and am hoping there is some kind of work around?
Any advice welcome.

About 3 or 4 months ago I switched to a new internet provider whom also sent me a new modem. Problem is, is that this new modem prevents my burglar alarm's dial out alert system from contacting my nominated phone numbers during an activation/test. If I turn off the modem there is no problem, the alarm works perfectly.
This would be fine except that my brother in law lives next door and uses my internet connection so it is inconvenient if I'm away and have to switch the modem off to have the alarm fully functional.
Prior to the provider change over I was using a 3rd party TP-Link TD-W8951ND modem with my prior service provider. This modem caused no problems at all with the function of the burglar alarm when left on.
Therefore, I would like to use the TP-Link modem again but I can't get it to work on the new service. From memory, the modem that was supplied by the new provider was basically 'plug and play' and all I did was just cable it in and there was no keyboard work required. This is why I don't know why the TP modem doesn't work since I didn't change anything.
Evidently, there are some configurations that do need altering but I haven't got a clue.
Any help or ideas?
Hello there, You need to apply the appropriate ADSL and network settings on the modem so it can connect to your new provider's network. The ISP support should provide those. Hope you get it up and running soon.
I purchased this All in one new, i asked the computer shop to increase RAM from factory supplied 8GB to the max possible 16GB. They tell me if they open the computer up and break the seal the warranty is null and void. Is this the case or not, i dont see the point in buying a computer and not being able to increase RAM until the warranty period ends, why make a 16GB if i can only have 8GB.Read other answers
Can you provide me with any suggestions for assistance in establishing the choice of a small to medium business network provider? Are there any websites with network self-assessment questionnaires or other information regarding this topic? I've found a couple of small articles but am seeking more information.
The company I work for wants to make the switch from their current provider to a new provider and unfortunately the individual who would normally administer this process is not present to do so. Therefore a number of us are working together to make the decision.
I have the current service provider contract to work from so that is a great help.
If you can provide any input, please advise.
thank you for your expertise

We are in the process of developing a Cryptographic Service Provider (CSP) and a Key Storage Provider (KSP) which are implemented as Dynamic-link libraries (.dll). The final product needs to be digitally signed in order for Windows to accept and use our implementations.
I read on MSDN that developers used to send an email to [email protected] and request that Microsoft do the signing. I sent an email to them, requesting more information about the process, but haven't received any feedback in about three months.
I figured an alternative would be to buy a "Code Signing certificate for Microsoft Authenticode" from a trusted CA, such as Symantec, and use that to sign the appropriate files ourselves. Would this be possible? I am just not sure whether it is permitted that security products, such as CSPs and KSPs, can be signed by the developers themselves and whether Microsoft wants to look at the implementations first.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
A search seems to indicate that email address is still correct. There is also indications you must download a Cryptographic Provider Development Kit

Hopefully someone with hands on experience will also respond.

I have a few customers with the error.....The Windows Cryptographic Service Provider reported an error: The security token does not have storage space available for an additional container. Error Code: 2148073507
I have this issue pop up with Adobe, IBM Viewer, or even emails...I am an admin but I am not sure why this works this way with her. She is able to work around by going to another computer but I really need to get her and two other computers fully up
and running. All the programs are updated.
I recently received an email from my service provider that they suspect malware on a computer here in my home.
Here's just a paragraph from the email: "You are receiving this email as Cogeco has received reports of atypical traffic from your system which is indicative of malware (ie: a virus or trojan). It is most likely that your system has been compromised with malware that is allowing a remote entity to utilize your system resources"
Fearing the worst, I started googling and came across your site.
As gathering this information takes time. I am posting this thread for one of 2 machines I need checked.
I followed the "Preparation Guide For Use Before Using Malware Removal Tools and Requesting Help" and am attaching all the log files generated, along with the hijack this report.
I don't know exactly what I'm looking for so your help would most be appreciated.
I will post the 2nd computer in a different thread, as I have to wait for someone to come home this evening to gain access to it.
Thanking You in advance.

Hello All,
I share an internet connection with 4 other people. We currently have Rogers Ultimate - 50 Mbs up/ 2 Mbs down. We use Rogers built in wireless/modem all in one. Some people are wireless others wired.
When there is no one on the network other than me, I can get speeds of 50 Mbs (speedtest.net)
But when more people connect it can drop to as low as 0-5 Mbs with no P2P/streams/downloads running on their computer.
I have a feeling that it could be an issue with the router. Is there a possibility that by them just being connected to the network, our bandwidth speeds drop? Does it matter the type of router we use?
When people do use P2P, streams etc will it use up all the bandwidth it possibly can or only what it needs? I am wondering because it feels like that when I run my P2P clients, my internet is the same weather its 20Mbs or 50Mbs.
Thanks for all the help!!!!
No, just being connected would not cause this, unless these people have viruses. P2P is a problem because most ISPs monitor it, and the ISP itself might be cutting you down for participating. But in general Im thinking either someone is hiding something, someone has a virus, or your ISP has caught on.

I've been looking for a different cell plan. I heard Kim Komando recommend to someone that they buy a used cell phone from www.recellular.com
I went to that site & found some phones that I might want. But when I checked into service providers, they told me that if I buy a phone from anyone but them, it may not fully function on their service. They said that an unlocked phone, or even a brand new phone from an electronics store would have the same problem. I spoke to someone at Recellular. They told me that their customers haven't had a problem with using phones bought from them.
So I'm wondering, is this just a bluff from the service providers to get me to buy their phones, or would I really get stuck with a crippled phone if I bought it from someone other than the service provider? Even if the phone would work, could the provider somehow provide me with crippled service & tell me that it's the phone's fault so that I buy one from them? Am I basically at the service provider's mercy, or is there a way that I can purchase a phone somewhere else and be confident that it will work when I activate it with the service provider? Thanks.
Hi, the answer to your question depends on which phone you buy and which service provider you want to sign up with. Some phones will be fully compatible with multiple service providers, but others may not. AT&T and Verizon, for example, use completely different network types, so a phone that was made for AT&T won't work at all on Verizon's CMDA network.
Your best bet is to contact the manufacturer of the phone you're interested in and see if they can give you a definitive answer for that phone. If not, if you can at least find out which company's network that phone was set up for, you'll have an idea of which networks it should and shouldn't work with.
I have had lots of trouble with my Vista freezing & just generally being a mess--shutting down & starting slow--really operating slow on the net. So lately I have been trying to speed it up & correct problems. I've finally gotten it running much, much faster & I am using Firefox as my browser--which I've optimized so its slick as a whistle--way faster. (I previously posted about the application error w/ Winword.) Here is another error I don't know what to do with. I must confess to what I did at this point--I didn't want Windows Defender on my system, so I deleted it using add/remove programs & I also went in & manually deleted some files to try to get it completely uninstalled. So if you look at this computer's list of installed programs in Windows you won't see it listed. But I am getting these error messages #'s 7000, 7001, 7022 & 7023--Here are 2 of them (see below). Is there anything I need to do with this which will tweek the system & make it operate any faster/perform better? Can I make it stop getting freaked out because it thinks something is wrong? Is changing the registry the only way to stop this?

If a service tries to start, and is unable to start for any reason, it'll give it several tries before giving up. This will cause a little bit of slowdown on the system - but it shouldn't be enough of a slowdown for you to notice it.Not every error in the Event Viewer is serious enough to warrant an investigation. For example, HP systems will usually spit out an error about the parallel printer port (LPT1) - even though there aren't any hardware parallel ports installed on the system. This is, IMO, because the BIOS contains code referencing this feature even though the hardware doesn't exist.Deleting/uninstalling of Windows components from the Programs and Features applet in Control Panel is safe. Once you venture outside of that area, the chances of hosing your system grow drastically. My first suggestion is that you don't delete things without creating a backup of them (and a description of where they're located). My next suggestion is to do things one step at a time. That way you'll be able to assess the impact of a change before moving on to the next change.The key to researching an Event Viewer error is comparing it to the other entries in the Event log (Information and Warning). Then a search for similar errors with Google, and a careful analysis of exactly what the message says.In your examples, the first error is that the Remote Access Connection Manager service couldn't start because the Telephony service couldn't start. Here's a description of the Telephony... Read moreRead other 5 answers

For example. Let's say I visit this website. When I come here my IP address can be looked up by the admins. If I change internet providers I should now have a new IP address, right? Now, here's the question. Will the owners of the website I visit be able to see that I am still the same person? If I were to manually change my IP, it would still show all the ip addresses that have been used under the one account. But, with the new provider will the new IP address still be linked with the old one?

I am desperate for some help regarding internet connectivity.
I am a full time student and take courses online. I just moved to Oklahoma from Phoenix Arizona. In Phoenix EVERYTHING was easily accessed but now I am living in a very very very small town in Oklahoma at my grandma's house where nothing exists. I brought my laptop with me on the move which is a Toshiba Satellite with Windows 7. Of course i have wifi capabalities within my laptop but there is absolutely no "unlocked" signals here for me to connect thru. Grandma's tower computer is absolutely in the dark ages with its dial up AOL connection (gag me).
I am trying to determine the best choice to make to get me some internet connectivity. I am unsure of the best route where speed is concerned and also price. I have contacted different hi-speed / dsl type companies and none are available in this desolate twilight zone spot where her house is located. the only provider of hi speed internet available here is a company called WILD BLUE and that would be 50 to install and 50 per month added to her satellite tv bill which grandma is really dragging her feet on calling and getting this service added. I THINK that if she called and setup this wild blue account i would be able to hook up this netgear wireless-G router WGR614 v9 to her crappy tower to send out a wifi signal that my laptop could connect thru.

I don`t want to change my ISP which is BT. I have been using BT Yahoo with Windows Mail more or less satisfactorily for some time but I have a new computer and have upgraded to Windows 7. I don`t like Windows Live Mail and am having trouble connecting this service to my present free BT Yahoo Account. In addition BT is severing connection with Yahoo and it is not at all clear what the result will be.
Windows Live Mail is refusing to send emails because of a problem with SSL connections. It doesn`t seem to make any difference whether I tick the boxes or not because SOME emails need SSL and some don`t.
My own feeling is best way out is to get a paid Yahoo account but I am not sure what will happen to my BT emails if I do that. I have copies of all the ones that matter on the backup Vista hard drive we took out of the computer so that is not too much of a problem provided I copy any recent emails that matter.
Could I still use the BT email address ? Most of the info on the web is for people who want to leave BT broadband. I share this connection with my husband and have no wish to change the ISP.
Can anyone explain my options ? I have just about got my head round the difference between an ISP, and Email Service Provider and an Email "Client" . I am interested in the Yahoo Paid Account because it would enable me to forward emails off the web based site and this seems more secure to me.

... the clones will be sent in soon! But first, I have to negotiate the always-hectic period right before final exams.
To tide you over, here are a few items from the case files of DuckTales International. There are a number of Youtube videos that package together the DuckTales theme song as performed in a variety of languages: here's just one example. Of all the non-English versions I've heard, the German version is probably the best. It has a certain "swing" all its own and gets some extra points for managing to include the German names for Scrooge (Dagobert Duck), HD&L (Tick, Trick und Track), and Duckburg (Entenhausen):
The Germans also went to the trouble of redubbing the voices of HD&L after the initial run of the series. Apparently, the three male voice actors who originally did the honors were thought to be insufficiently "Ducky" sounding, so a young female actress was recruited to take their place. (This same actress also did the voice of Dot Warner for the German dub of Animaniacs.) A viewing of the German dub of "Send in the Clones" reveals just what a good job she did -- one akin to a younger Russi Taylor.

Human beings both form the societies in which they participate and are shaped by those societies. Anthropology and sociology study the balance between these two dynamics: We see individuals as both products of social groups and as producers of new cultural trends. While sociologists often have focused on
larger-scale, industrialized societies and anthropologists have emphasized non-Western, smaller, non-industrialized groups, some anthropologists do their research in locations such as American cities, and some sociologists study small villages in India.
