The Shih Tzu is a snugly built little animal with a solid, sound structure. It stands from about 8 to 11 inches tall at the withers, and should weigh from 9 to 16 pounds. Its body length is slightly greater than its height, and it should be physically proportional all over, neither too short or too small, but a true miniature breed dog. In movement, it moves with effortless, smooth strides, showing good drive and reach, with the head and tail held high, giving away its ancient royal bloodlines.
Its hair is double layered, full, dense, and lush, and grows long and straight, past the feet. The Shih Tzu sheds very little, making it a good choice for people who have light allergies to fur, or for people who just prefer not to clean up a lot of hair. Regular grooming is a requirement with this breed because of this characteristic; the hair will get tangled and matted quickly as it gets longer. The ears and tail are full and long, with the tail hair fluffing it out in a feathery plume that curves over the back.
This breed is categorized as brachycephalic, meaning that the muzzle and nose of the Shih Tzu is flat, though not as flat as its cousin, the Pekingese. The eyes are round and wide, but in contrast to some other flat muzzled dogs, the eyes should not bulge or be too prominent. The Shih Tzu should have an innocent, wide-eyed, warm expression giving it an impression of friendliness and trustworthiness, rather than the more ferocious appearance of the Pekingese.
The Shih Tzu is bred primarily as a domestic and family companion, so its personality should be guided by friendliness, buoyancy, tolerance, and trust. This breed showers affection on its family when it has been treated in kind, and is good and gentle with children. It should be noted that Shih Tzu can get skittish when they are mistreated, and a dog that is introduced to small children at an older age may not be as tolerant with high energy play as it would if it had been raised from the start with young children. Its resilience is impressive, but this trait can translate to stubbornness at times.
Still, the ever plucky and sweet Shih Tzu is not only a lively and playful companion, but a mild lapdog as well. It loves to romp and play, delighting everyone with its cheerful attitude, and at the end of the day it is happy to relax with the family, serene and at peace in its little world.
This breed needs exercise, but not much more than a daily walk around the neighborhood, or a run though the park. It can even be suitably energized with fetching games inside when the weather does not permit outdoor activities. This is a walking dog rather than a jogging dog, but owing to its size, it can also make an enjoyable biking companion, given a comfortable bike basket from which to settle in to catch the wind in its face. Because of its short muzzle, the Shih Tzu cannot tolerate high temperatures.
Another consideration regarding its nose is the tendency for water to get into the nostrils. Some owners use water bottles (the sort used for small cage animals) for their Shih Tzu to avoid this problem. This dog gets along better as an indoor dog rather than an outdoor dog. This arrangement is highly recommended, in fact. This is not only to protect your dog from temperatures, but because the hair tends to get dirty and matted as it grows.
The plush coat requires combing or brushing on alternate days, everyday if it is kept at show length. It is essential to teach puppies to accept grooming while young so that they look forward to this activity with you. Make no mistake, if you choose to grow the hair long on your Shih Tzu, you will need to commit yourself to an intense grooming schedule; the hair can get out of hand quickly. Some owners who do not plan to show their Shih Tzu, but have the breed for companionship only, will choose to keep their pet in a teddy bear cut, or an abbreviated long style that is easier to manage.
Another option is to keep the tail, ears and "beard" long, with the feet fluffy, and the rest of the hair on the body trimmed to an inch or shorter, or to keep the hair on the undercarriage long so that it blends with the legs, giving the hair the appearance of a skirt. Whatever cut is chosen, the hair around the eyes should be kept trimmed to avoid mishaps or gunk build-up, but just long enough to keep dust from blowing into the eyes.
Another reason to keep your Shih Tzu inside is that it has a tendency to bark, sometimes for long stretches of time. Even if it is kept indoors, this breed will bark frequently, at anyone, or anything, going by. It gets bored when it is alone, and this explains its behavior to some degree, but keep in mind that the Shih Tzu was bred as a palace watchdog, and it will continue to carry that instinct if it is from a pure line. This quality makes it a particularly good choice for an alarm system, but maybe not a good option for someone who lives in an apartment and is at work all day -- although there are solutions for this type of situation. When the dog is with people it can be distracted from barking as much, but this trait must be expected and appreciated, rather than taken as an annoyance that must be trained out of the Shih Tzu. Rather than punishing the barking behavior, find response words that will work quickly to quiet your dog, or distractions that can be depended on to draw its attention away from what is going on outside the window or door.
The Shih Tzu has a lifespan of 11 to 16 years. Some of the minor diseases that can affect this breed are renal dysplasia (abnormal growth of tissue), trichiasis (eyelash malformation), entropion, progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), otitis externa, patellar luxation, and inguinal (groin) hernia, as well as a major concern like canine hip dysplasia (CHD). This breed is also prone to cataract and dental problems. Eye, hip, and DNA tests can be good for preventive health care, or for management of non-preventive conditions.
The name Shih Tzu Kou, or Shih Tzu, translates to "mini lion," the moniker given to it in deference to its lion-like appearance. The name is likely based on the word for lion, "shishi." The lion was highly esteemed in China for its connection with Buddhism, since it had a long tradition as guardian of the temples and palaces. The lion's strength and courage was revered, and it made its way into many of Buddha's teachings. This little dog was bred to reflect that appearance of strength, regality, and beauty, and it took the position as a practical stand in for the lion, acting as companion and guardian of the palace and temple.
It is probable that this dog was actually developed in Tibet in the 1600s, where it was considered a holy animal. It is accepted as one of the oldest dog breeds on record. The modern Shih Tzu developed in China in the late 19th Century, when the Dowager Empress Cixi ruled the kingdom.
Though the Pekingese and Shih Tzu breeds have similar backgrounds, and have often been linked over the years, the two had been long distinguished in Chinese art, where the latter is shown with a pien-ji or topknot, denoted by bumps on the head. It is worth remarking that the topknot is still the style that is used for the Shih Tzu, especially in the show ring.
When the Dowager Empress Cixi ruled during the latter part of the Qing dynasty, the Shih Tzu were held in great regard, and were kept as special house pets. She personally oversaw their breeding, and the eunuchs in charge of the palace breeding took great pride in producing the most beautiful and distinct dogs, interbreeding, without the Empress' knowledge, within the groups of Pekingese and Pugs that were also a part of the palace kennel in order to achieve those ideal. Because the dogs were also regarded as protectors of the palace, the instinct for barking at strangers was undoubtedly honed during this time. In fact, the Shih Tzu is still a highly recommended watch dog because of its quick and vocal reaction to strangers. The Empress was very jealous over her dogs and was not wont to share them with foreign dignitaries or friends. Many of the Empress' dogs were lost after her death, causing a big blow to the breed. Later, Shih Tzus were displayed in China as Tibetan Poodles or Lhassa Terriers.
In 1935, the breed was shown as the Lhassa Lion Dog, and it was then that it began to gain popularity on a wider scale. In England there was confusion between the Shih Tzu and the Lhasa Apso, but in 1934, after the Apso was displayed, the two breeds were split into their own distinct classes. It was then that the smaller dogs with the shorter-noses and wider-skulls from Peking were given the Shih Tzu name. Just one Pekingese outcrossing was allowed, in 1952, but this cross was not permitted again. The standards for the purity of the bloodline have been strictly upheld since. In the 1960s, the U.S. saw immense growth in the breed's popularity, paving the way for recognition by the American Kennel Club in 1969. It is among the most lovable of the toy breeds, and its popularity as a domestic companion and show dog continues to rise.
Barking is a characteristic of the Shih Tzu??????
I have a seven year old Shih/AKC and I have always marveled at his non-barking. he sneezes to communicate - if that fails, he taps your leg or a bag or whatever will make noise to get your attention, he only lets out a single yelp to let you know you have ignored all his other communications; or if another dog won't play with him; he's not the only quiet Shih Tzu i know - most all of us have laughed at our sneezing/snorting little friends. So what's the deal on yelping/barking incessently being standard amongst the breed? i recommend the shih tzu to anyone who doesn't want a yappy annoying little dog. Others with Calvin Coolidge Shih Tzus chime in. Perhaps mine is particularly silent as he has spent very little time alone - most always with me from birth and so perhaps he didn't have to bark because he had no complaints, lol.
I have to agree with you I have 2 Shih Tzu's and they rarely bark at all especially on a walk. Unless they see a bigger dog but normally they are NOT a small yapping type of a dog.
Well, he has been known to bark in excitement, while playing, and occasionally from frustration when I won't let him do something, but generally he is silent. And he has never done that irritating incessant bark that you expect from toy dogs and terriers.
The only time he has ever been noisy was when I missed his daily walk, and the yap factor upped a few decibels.
I have to wonder - are the people who have noisy shih tzu actually meeting their needs with enough play, exercise and romping? All that frustrated energy would have to find an outlet somewhere!
Ours fits this description perfectly! He is motivated by play & companionship more than anything. The neighborhood walking trail is directly behind the fence. His morning playtime in our backyard is dedicated to watching for people with dogs to walk by so he can bark loudly and joyfully while running up and down the length of our fence with them. He's not an annoying barker but is exactly as you described. He consistently barks loudly from the excitement and anticipation of companionship or an exciting event. He's the friendliest dog I've ever known. He can be stubborn but is eager to please, easy to please, and content with whatever. He is joyful and energetic but, as stated in this description, very content to be a lap dog, especially in the evenings. All our friends, family, and neighbors love him. You can't be around him without smiling, a lot. He loves everyone and every type of animal so very much. He doesn't shed. He does need to be groomed fairly often because he mats easily. He's a rescue so we're not sure of his first ten months but 6 years later he is definitely jumpy when touched unexpectedly and is fearful when scolded."Thin skinned." He's such a good boy it has been easy to accomplish good behavior without scaring or hurting him. I cannot imagine life without a shih tzu going forward. This breed is highly recommended by me!

O' Mai Khan
February 16, 2012 in Casual Dining, Food Adventures, O' Mai Khan, Restaurants, Where to Eat in Baguio?
O' Mai Khan is probably one of the oldest and best restaurants in Baguio City. It started out as a small restaurant in Otek Street, near Rizal Park, but now it has a bigger and better building located in Upper Session Road, just a few blocks away from SM City Baguio. It is now more accessible to more people as parking is no longer a problem, well it's still a problem because it's fully packed most of the time.
Anyway, I've always been a fan of O' Mai Khan's food and have been there a couple of times with friends and then with B, back in the old branch in Otek Street. The food is always great and the ambiance is absolutely perfect for a date or perhaps an intimate family dinner or a date.
O' Mai Khan is a word play of the Ilocano phrase "umay kan" which literally means, come on or let's go. However, it is a Mongolian restaurant. I find it very creative how the phrase somewhat sounds Chinese, the owners were even creative enough to have created a back story about how everything began.
You can read the back story on their menus while waiting to be seated. If you have no reservations, you must wait outside, so I suggest you call in ahead or bring a really thick jacket so you don't freeze outside.

Those Who Came Before: The Musical Journey of Eddie Kamae
Please support the Hawaiian Legacy Foundation which strives to preserve the music, language, people and places of old Hawaii for future generations. Learn More
Aia I Hi'ialo
In a culture that honors the legacies of the past, this Hawaiian trio of talented musicians pays homage to their roots while creating a unique and progressive sound that leaves their mark in contemporary Hawaiian music.
This worldview is the essence of Hiikua's music, which is either composed or performed by Kalehua Krug, Kamuela Kimokeo and Blake Leoki-Haili. The group's name derives from the Hawaiian word that literally means "to carry on one's back." Hi`ikua accepts this responsibility and intends with each song to achieve that goal: to speak of their history in words and music; to enjoy each moment of that expression, and in sharing this with you, to hope that their message will find its way into the future.
The music on Aia I Hi`ialo reflects the fond memories of Hi`ikua's parents and grandparents, the things that they taught, and the messages that they shared. These memories are often the source of inspiration for mele that are written to help remember important life lessons. Learn More

Hawaiian Voices: Bridging Past to Present
A One Kine Hawaiian Man - Luther Kahekili Makekau
Award-winning documentarian and musician Eddie Kamae brings you another powerful story of Hawai`i.

This award-winning, one-hour documentary pays tribute to the untamed spirit of a colorful and controversial Hawaiian man. Known throughout the islands and descended from a line of warrior chiefs, Luther Makekau was part philospher and part outlaw, a chanter and a singer, a fighter and a lover, a cattle rustler, a rebel and a poet.
Born on Maui in 1890, during the reign of King Kala-kaua, he lived nearly a hundred years, shaped by a century of turbulent cultural change.

For Love
"For Love, sounds like it should be the aural equivalent of a particularly slushy rom-com. Thankfully the Maui-born songstress has avoided the temptation to drench her lovelorn lyrics with sickly sweet melodies and schmaltzy strings, and instead has impressively managed to produce a genuinely warm and effortlessly summery record which might even charm those who curse the Feb 14 celebrations...A quietly seductive affair, For Love suggests that when it comes to the 'female Jack Johnson' label, Colbie Caillat may now have some competition." -Jon O'Brian, Rovi
Anuhea's signature guitar rhythms and song writing weave soul, R&B, jazz, and reggae to achieve a seductive pop sound with an independent attitude ala Lily Allen and Gwen Stefani.

Hula Ku'i - GRAMMY® NOMINEE
Learn More
Raised on homestead land in Waimanalo, Lolena 'Lena' Naipo, Jr. goes back to his roots with his band Kahulanui in their first release, Hula Ku'i. Kahulanui is an inspiration passed down from his grandfather Robert Kahulanui. Lolena remembers stories of his grandfather who was a member of the Royal Hawaiian Band during an era when horns and drums were a part of Hawaiian music. It was from these beginnings that he draws from for Hula Ku'i. "Throughout Hawai'i in the 20s and 30s, one could find orchestras playing Hawaiian Swing and the house would be jumping. Kahulanui borrowed from these influences and performed classic Hawaiian songs in a syncopated style making Hawaiian Swing vibrant and alive in Hawai'i today. With musical influences from Uncle Alvin Kaleolani Isaac, Ray Kinney, Sam Koki, Lani McIntryre and even Spike Jones, I am excited for you to hear Kahulanui with the Kahulanui horn section. It's Hawaiian Swing at its finest and with today's technology and the magic of GRAMMY® award-winning engineer/producer Charles Michael Brotman, you have one of the most innovative releases to come out of the islands. You won't be sitting for long once you hear Kahulanui's Hula Ku'i... 'ami aku, 'ami mai, 'ami 'ami malie…" - Skylark Rossetti
Iz: The Man and His Music - Island Music Island Hearts
Israel Kamakawiwo'ole has been Hawai'i's biggest star in the past fifty years. His music, his physical size and most importantly, his aura; a proud Hawaiian man, full of love and life, permeated the Hawai'i of the '90's to such a degree that when he died, the State Capitol had to be opened to allow his people to expess the extent of their loss.
The performances captured on Island Music, Island Hearts give everyone an opportunity to bask in the immense presence of IZ. Share previous moments with IZ as he joins friends at Waioli Tea House in Manoa Valley, performs with just his "ukulele on beautiful Waimanalo Beach and in a concert among the pohaku at the historic Miloli'i fishing village on the island of Hawai'i.Check out a preview below!

Ho'okena's Nani Mau Loa - Everlasting Beauty
Six years after Ho'okena's GRAMMY®-nominated Cool Elevation release, Manu Boyd, Horace Dudoit, Chris Kamaka and Glen Smith are on the verge of launching their 10th recording in 23 years together. This, by many measures, is their best to-date.
Nani Mau Loa – Everlasting Beauty is inspired by a new song about commitment and lasting love, but reaches much farther in expressing Ho'okena's commitment to the everlasting beauty of Hawai'i nei.
Ho'okena is a rare example of long-term commitment to Hawaiian music. While raising families, advancing careers, leading communities, traveling the world and experiencing life's many blessings, Manu, Horace, Glen and Chris remain as a staple in Hawaiian contemporary music bridging the 20th and 21st centuries while delving into their history, heritage and mana that goes back much, much further.

Gregg Allman Concert Tickets
Gregg Allman is an American rock singer, who helped form The Allman Brothers Band. He not only plays the keyboard and guitar, but is also a singer-songwriter. The band, which was successful in the early 70's, led Allman to a solo career. Rolling Stone listed him as number 70 for the "100 Greatest Singers of All Time." In 2006 he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. Allman continues to produce rock, blues, and country music and put on some fantastic concerts.
Gregg Allman was born in Nashville, Tennessee in 1947. Both he and his older brother Duane Allman had a love for music at a very young age. He had originally planned to go to school to become a dental surgeon, but ended up following Duane, who had dropped out of school, to become a musician. The Allman brothers performed in a few bands together before moving to Los Angeles and signing with Liberty Records. In 1969 the Allman Brothers Band was formed with the two brothers and three other musicians.
When Allman's brother died in 1971, he started his solo career. He released his first album, Laid Back, in 1973. It included his own work as well as redone Allman Brothers' songs. His song, Midnight Rider, was number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles chart. His second solo album, I'm No Angel, sold 500,000 copies, making the album certified Gold. His third album, Low Country Blues, was nominated as the Best Blues Album during the 2011 Grammy Awards.
Gregg Allman is currently on his summer tour and also has a fall tour coming up. He will also be on tour for the month of August and the beginning of September with the Allman Brothers Band. Tickets are on sale for both tours now!

MOSCOW, February 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Up until a few days ago, Russia's leading internet retailer with sales of $1.2 billion in 2013 had planned on becoming the first major retailer in all of Europe to permit the Bitcoin as an accepted form of payment. Company executives were expected to decide on its official introduction by the end of February which would have permitted consumers to begin purchasing items online by the end of the summer.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140203/667275 )
Plans were shelved however after the Central Bank of the Russian Federation made the following statement: "The Bank of Russia warns that any companies accepting the Bitcoin for the sale of items or the receipt of foreign currency could lead to them being considered practicing questionable activities such as the laundering of money or the financing of terrorism."
Company policy at Ulmart obligates it to heed to the words spoken by the head of financial regulation in the country. Ulmart is a law-abiding company and does its utmost to support the existing laws and regulations put forth by the government.
Brian Kean, the Communications Director for Ulmart commented: "At the same time, I truly hope that the authors of this "very interesting experiment"-to quote Herman Gref, the head of Russia's Sberbank-will work tirelessly to demonstrate to the doubters that the Bitcoin is not used only for such illegal and questionable activities. I would hope that one fine day the Bitcoin will be accepted by all countries and banks."
As the largest internet-retailer in Russia, it seemed an obvious expansion of the company creed to maximize all technologies designed to make shopping at Ulmart online stores always an experience that is ahead of the curve in technology and a pleasure for consumers. Three days after Ulmart made their announcement to use the Bitcoin, the Central Bank officially published its warning: "Sure, our decision might have pushed them to act, but, at least now we know where they stand and so it makes it easier for all companies going forward."

Aurora firefighter helps revive little girl's spirit
By Stephanie Lulay firstname.lastname@example.com December 6, 2012 5:32PM
5-year-old Luisa Marabotti clutches three of her favorite Barbie dolls on Thursday, December 6, 2012, inside of her Stonebridge home that was damaged by a chimney fire that caused $150,000. Aurora Fire Battalion Chief Ed Oros (left) was able to make a speical trip into the house after the fire to recover Luisa's dolls. | Steven Buyansky~Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: December 8, 2012 7:48PM
AURORA — Through the flames of her home, a 5-year-old girl received an early Christmas present from an Aurora firefighter — her rescued Barbie dolls.
Mother Chewon Lee noticed smoke early Saturday evening at her two-story home in the 2700 block of Hamman Way on Aurora's far East Side.
"The house was in perfect condition but we could see smoke from the backside," Lee said.
From outside the home, a small flame could be seen coming from the chimney.
"All of the neighborhood came out. I was panicked," said Lee, a native of South Korea. "My English is not the greatest, so my neighbors helped me call 911."
At 5:40 p.m. Saturday, the Fire Department received the call. By the time fire crews arrived, the blaze had spread from the chimney into the attic.
Lee, who was renting the home with her husband and daughter Luisa, waited at neighbor Cathy Towers' home while firefighters worked to extinguish the blaze.
Aurora Fire Battalion Chief Ed Oros tried to be reassuring, Lee said. Oros told the family that 20 mph winds were fueling the flames across the house, charring the attic's rafters. The fire caused about $150,000 in damage to the home.
And 5-year-old Luisa was very confused.
"She was asking me, 'What about my dolls?'" Lee said.
When Oros told the family they wouldn't be able to re-enter the home, he could tell little Luisa was upset.
"She was looking for her Barbies, so I told her I would bring them if I could," said Oros, 52, a 29-year-veteran of the Aurora force.
So while crews were still putting out small spot fires, Oros went back into the charred house to gather Luisa's pink crate of Barbies on the home's second floor.
The Barbies smelled of smoke and were wet from water used to put out the fire, but Luisa was thrilled, neighbor Towers said. Oros — who has a 12-year-old daughter and a grown son — also retrieved Luisa's prized princess costumes.
"(The) little girl's eyes got as big as saucers when he brought them in," neighbor Towers said. "It was wonderful."
Oros said there plenty of firefighters who have done "better stuff for fire victims."
"I don't want to make too big of a deal about this," he said. "I saw her and she was such a cute, nice little girl, I wanted to do something to cheer her up a little bit. That's all I did really."
The exact cause of the fire is unknown, but Oros said the flue to the chimney was not open above the gas log fireplace. No one was injured, he said.
Oros, who grew up in Aurora but now lives in Geneva, said there isn't a firefighter on the force who wouldn't have done what he did. He said the firefighters putting out the flames deserve all of the credit.
Retrieving items special to a family is part of the job for firefighters, Oros said.
"It's our job to save property, not just lives and the house," Oros said.
He recalled a blaze where firefighters dug through two feet of debris to retrieve a family heirloom for a distraught granddaughter. Firefighters routinely throw tarps to keep furniture dry that families hope to save, he said.
It's only natural to want to "lighten the grief" of those who have just lost a home, Oros said.
"You see the destruction in these houses, and your heart goes out to them. You want to make it better for them," Oros said.
Luisa's mom, though, thought Oros' effort was extra special.
"Ed is an angel," Lee said. "After the accident, I realize there are wonderful people all around us."

No, no, no. Didn't you hear? According to DU President Bush isn't going to leave. He's going to bomb Iran (or some such thing), declare martial law and be President (Or Dictator or something) forever.:DIt IS the end of the Bush administration. You just wait. He'll be gone by February
So anyway, if the judge didn't say that, the defendants are liars. If the judge did say that, it was probably unethical of him to do so (and would be grounds for the prosecution to get a new judge, I would imagine).

rbeaulieu Posted:
Bought seat for my 2009 Sportster 1200 custom. This seat with the backrest, seems to have solved the pain I got in my tailbone from riding with my stock seat. Only downside is that the seat raised my sitting height on the bike, thereby making me reach to the handle bars. Otherwise, I love it.

Nice seat but it raised me up to high and I can't properly reach the ground now. Going to have to sell it.
lakota4753 Posted:
This is a well constructed and comfortable seat. It's a little taller than the stock seat, with more padding. Fits the bike perfectly.

My wife absolutely loves the Mustang Vintage Solo Seat. We recently vacationed in the Smoky Mountains riding just under 1,000 miles in 5 days and not one soreness complaint. I have a Mustang seat on my bike and we have a Mustang seat on a third bike we have. Mustang all the way.

There appear to be two versions of:
Adobe Flash Player
One for Internet Explorer
and another for other browsers
Since I use both IE and Chrome should I install both?
Anyway why does IE need a separate Flash Player?
I dual boot Win7 and XP.
In the case of IE and Chrome, you will only need to install the IE version of Flash Player. Chrome contains it's own version of Flash Player that is installed and updated automatically by Chrome itself.
As for why the different Flash Player versions, IE uses a different architecture for plugins (ActiveX) than other browsers (Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc.).
I still hope that these installers some day will be combined into one; https://bugbase.adobe.com/index.cfm?event=bug&id=2945082
I've asked about this and I believe it comes down to size. However, coming with Flash Player 11.3 we'll have just a single installer for both 32 and 64 bit installs. So, we go from 4 different installers to 2
Good; a step in the right direction!
A stab at answering part of your question and then a question for you. My Win 7 machine has both the 32 bit and 64 bit versions on IE 8 installed which would account for a 32 and 64 bit Flash Player? Anyway my question for you is can you send me the process in which you were able to obtain the dual boot config for Win 7 and XP? I've tried several different methods I've found, after trying how I used to configure dual boot with 98 and 2k and nothing has worked yet. If you don't mind the information can be forwarded to an email for me which is: [removed] Thanks in advance.
The 64-bit installer will install both 32-bit and 64-bit Flash Players.
Regarding dual booting: it is achieved easily when the operating systems are installed in sequence: older Windows version first, newer version second.
The boot manager up to Windows XP is completely different from the boot manager used in Windows 7 and Vista.
I'm sorry but I would like a clearification of something that I have observed in my PC.
I'm not sure if I can believe what is found on your Web Page because in the past people have made mistakes. They are not angels, yet!
Am I to believe that "Adobe Flash Player 11 Active-x" and "Adobe Flash Player Plugin" are the same? If that is the case, why are there two entries in my
WinXP -> Start -> Control Panel -> Add or Remove Programs?
ActiveX is for Internet Explorer and Plugin is for other browsers, such as Firefox.

MCC school kit drive underway in Manitoba
WINNIPEG, Man. -- Every year more than 100,000 school-age children whose lives have been interrupted by war, disaster and poverty receive a draw-string bag filled with new school supplies.
Annual school kit drives make it possible for Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) to send school kits to children in Iraq, Bosnia, El Salvador, Kazakhstan, Nepal and many other countries, said Brad Reimer, coordinator of MCC Manitoba's school kit drive in Manitoba.
Each kit contains four notebooks, four unsharpened pencils, a package of 12 coloured pencils, a ruler and large eraser. These supplies are packed in hand-sewn fabric bags and distributed in schools and orphanages. Last year close to 30,000 school kits were assembled in Canada.
The hands-on approach of buying school supplies for MCC school kits provides a meaningful activity for families and groups, said Reimer.
In addition to providing much needed educational supplies, Reimer said MCC school kits provide something else—a sense of hope and encouragement.
"When you look at the expressions on the faces of the kids when they receive their kits we know that they are treasured and accepted as gifts of love," he said. "For many children this is one of the few times in their lives that they will get something new."
Supplies for MCC school kits can be dropped off at MCC Manitoba's office in Winnipeg, 134 Plaza Drive.
MCC also needs financial donations to offset shipping costs and purchase school supplies and depends on volunteers to sew the fabric draw-string bags and assemble the kits.
Visit mcc.org/kits/school/ [1] for more information on MCC school kits or call (888) 622-6337.

115 Meeting ST
tour starts at the Historic Mills House Hotel
Pat Conroy's South of Broad Walking Tour is a two-hour tour narrated by professional guides, highlighting the streets and sites featured in Conroy's 2009 hit novel, "South of Broad". The walking tour focuses on the beautiful urban setting of Charleston with a history as bittersweet as the lives of the novel's central characters.
The tour, available Tuesday through Saturday, begins at 11:00 a.m. in the lobby of the Historic Mills House Hotel at 115 Meeting Street (mentioned on page 209 of South of Broad), and ends outside the Gibbes Museum of Art at 135 Meeting Street (mentioned on pages 364 and 366 of South of Broad).
Tour stops linked to the book include St. Michael's Episcopal Church (1761)—oldest church building in Charleston—where characters Chad Rutledge and Molly Huger were married, Legare Street—one of Charleston's richest and most elegant streets—and the longest throw Leo King has to make on his paper route, Water Street, where key characters in the novel rode out Hurricane Hugo, and the Dock Street Theater—site of Charleston's first theater (first play performed in 1736)—visited by Leo's parents on the night of the family tragedy that sets the novel in motion.

"Don't be surprised if this one's in the foreign-language Oscar conversation next year." — Steven Zeitchik, LA Times
Screenplay: Kim Mordaunt
Producer: Sylvia Wilczynski
Executive producers: Bridget Ikin, Michael Wrenn, Triphet Rookachat
Photography: Andrew Commis
Editor: Nick Meyers
Production designer: Pete Baxter
Costume designer: Woranun Pueakpan
Sound: Sam Petty, Brooke Trezise
Music: Caitlin Yeo
In Laotian with English subtitles
With: Sitthiphon Disamoe (Ahlo), Loungnam Kaosainam (Kia), Thep Phongam (Purple), Bunsri Yindi (Taitok), Sumrit Warin (Toma), Alice Keohavong (Mali)
Festivals: Berlin, Tribeca 2013
Best Film (Generation Kplus), Berlin International Film Festival 2013
Best Narrative Feature, Best Actor and Audience Award, Tribeca Film Festival 2013
In rural Laos, young Ahlo (irrepressible Sitthiphon Disamoe) is born under a curse, or so says his grandmother, and you'd be a fool to argue when the implacable old bat gives you the evil eye. Tragic events suggest she's right but Ahlo is determined to turn his luck around. Forcibly relocated with his family from their village by Australian hydro-electricity developers, Ahlo teams up with another misfit, Kia, who lives with her James Brown-loving uncle Purple, only to find himself more firmly ostracised than ever. A rocket festival, in which contestants launch homemade missiles from precariously makeshift bamboo platforms, provides Ahlo with his chance to star, or get very badly burned trying.
Australian filmmaker Kim Mordaunt previously directed a documentary in Laos about children who sell unexploded bombs for scrap metal. This new film, superbly shot by New Zealander Andrew Commis, feels thoroughly informed by familiarity with the landscape and culture. And the rocket festival is no stunt: it's the real thing.
"The visually stunning location provides an enthralling and evocative backdrop for Kim Mordaunt's engaging film… The film works quite profoundly as a thoughtful look at a country ravaged by war as well as being on the brink of change. The climactic rocket launch scenes are impressively staged, with the stunning shot of his rocket spiralling upwards evocative and beautifully shot as it explodes behind the clouds." — Mark Adams, Screendaily
"Endearing, gripping and heartwarming, The Rocket recently won the World Narrative Competition prize at Tribeca, and it's easy to see why." — Rodrigo Perez, Indiewire

Salmonid Stock Inventory (SaSI)
What is SaSI?
Washington's eleven species and subspecies of native salmonid fish constitute a biological resource of spectacular commercial and cultural importance. Unfortunately, this resource is under heavy pressure from human population growth and development. Urban and industrial land conversion, forestry and agricultural practices, water diversion, municipal water demands, overfishing, and hydropower development have contributed to the decline of several salmonid stocks. A large recovery effort at the local, state, and federal level is currently underway to prevent further declines and improve the condition of already imperiled stocks. Learn More >>
