Never cried so hard ever.
You're sitting at your desk, and you know it's time to go. You've said that to yourself over a million times, but this time you know, for sure, is real. You're tired… you're just so very tired. You're parents pissed you off, like school wasn't bad enough today. You go to get the rope, or the knife, or the gun or whatever you choose to use because you're that desperate to leave. You're ready. You think of it as some game… the first one dead is the one who wins. No ones home, it's the perfect time. You're ready. If you don't do it now, you're gonna look down on yourself even more, forever. You're going to hate yourself even more. No one knows, no one will know… until later on. Instead of getting a paper and a pen, you get the video camera, along with a chair. You're standing on the chair. You decided to go with the rope… you're gone instantly and there will be no noise. One side of the rope is tied to the top of your fan, while the other is already around your neck. You're in tears, you know it's for real this time. You can feel it. You turn on the video camera and just stare at the red light blinking upon your eyes. You start to mumble out a few words. "Mom and dad, I'm sorry. I don't know why I'm sorry, but I'm sorry. I can't do this anymore. I don't even know who I am anymore. I've lost myself and I seem to not find my way back. Please don't blame yourself, please. I love you both, please tell my siblings the same. Stay strong, and stay save. I'll see you all soon." You say sorry to your best friend because you know you won't be there for him anymore especially when he needs you more than ever. You say sorry to everyone you could think of… even yourself. You're sorry for not being strong anymore. You're sorry for breaking down. You're sorry for putting them through so much pain in their life. You stare, once again, at the red light blinking upon your eyes. One foot is off the chair now as you begin to mouth the word goodbye. You have the remote control to turn off the camera in your right hand. Your pointer finger on the off button already. You clicked that button and as soon as you see that light go off, you go off. Both feet are now off the chair… the chair is on the floor… the room is filled with silence. You're dead. You're gone. There is no going back. Everything is over. You don't have to live in pain anymore… but everyone else will. What are your parents going to think? What about your little brother, or little sister? What are they going to do? You're gone. You're dead. There is no going back. You ended your life because the person of your dreams only likes you asa friend. You ended your life because that one teacher was harder on you than anyone else in the class because she knew you're the only one that is going somewhere in life. Your parents are home now. They call your name telling you their home, just like they normally do whenever they get home…. but something's different. You don't answer. They don't hear your voice. They get worried… you always answer. They come upstairs thinking your sleeping or showering. Your mom opens your bedroom door and screams at the top of her lungs. She instantly passes out. Now your little sister comes up after her. She screams "DADDY HELP!!!!" She runs over to you hitting your leg begging you to wake up. "WAKE UP, WAKE UP. PLEASE STOP WAKE UP". But you don't answer, you're not waking up. You're gone. You're dead. There is no waking up. Theres no going back. Your dad comes running upstairs and all he could do is stare. He watches his baby girl swing back and forth on a rope. He sees the video camera and he sees the chair. But he doesn't move. He's stiff as a board. He cries…. Your dad NEVER cries. He picks up the phone and calls 911. He can barely get the words "My daughter committed suicide" out of his mouth. He's in tears. Your little sister stares at your dad. Your dad hangs up and your little sister jumps into your daddy's arms, crying harder than ever. She's too young to understand completely, but she knows you're gone. She knows you're dead. There is no going back. Everything is over. The cops finally arrive. They push your dad and sister out of your room and sit them in the living room. They take your body down off those ropes and lay you on the stretcher. They cover your body and out you go… just like that. You're gone. You're dead. There's no going back. Nothing is the same. Two weeks have passed and your mom still stares out the window more than half of the day. Your little sister still hasn't returned to school. Your dad is forced to go to work so he can pay all the bills for your wake and funeral. Eventually, they found to strength to go into your room. Your door hasn't been open for months. The rope is still laying on the floor and the video camera is still sitting on the table. They don't even dare to watch the video, it will never be seen. They slowly pick up the rope and throw it in the garbage. Chills run up their spine, your mom basically in tears. They brush off your bed, making it neat… like they used to do every morning after you went to school. Your bed was made and your room was clean. They shut the door, and it remained shut. Your school is still in distress. You thought no one cared and you thought no one noticed you. The girl that said no to being your lab partner, yeah she cuts every single night now because she thinks it's her fault you died. The boy that tripped you by accident and didn't say sorry, yeah he's in suicidal therapy 5 days a week in a hospital because he feels a smile could of saved your life and he didn't give that to you. The teacher that was hard on you that day, she quit her job because she felt she wasn't suited to teach anymore. You're gone. You're dead. There's no going back. 4 years have passed. Your little sister is now 15 years old. She started a club in her school dedicated to you. "Secrets" is what he calls it. The club is formed for kids to speak their hearts, without anyone judging them. They can say anything they want to, and talk about anything they needed to. If they were suicidal, they always had someone. That was your problem. You didn't want to talk to anyone. You had everything bottled up inside of you. You acted as if you were the happiest kid on the planet and you had the perfect life. You played that character so well that even you started to believe it. You would be so "happy" and as soon as you layed in bed at night, the thoughts came back. A little fight between you and your parents could have set you off. But with everything inside of you bottled up for years, it hit your limits. You're gone. You're dead. There's no going back. Your room will never be occupied. Your mom still cries every single night. Your dad isn't as strong as he used to be. Your little sister will never grow up with you by her side moving her in the right direction. Your best friend is still torn up. Your school now has a club dedicated to you so teens will not make the same mistake you did. Your life was precious and you took it away in the blink of an eye. All you needed was a smile, that's all you needed. But since you're gone, just know people cared. People always have cared. You were just way too upset to see that. You were just too caught up in the fact that you thought no one cared… when the truth was, more people cared about you that you ever thought they would. Your town will never be the same. A girl is gone, a special girl who thought no one cared. Everyone cared. I promise you. They care, they always have cared. We loved you, and no matter what, we will still always love you.

How the Deep Web, Big Data, Semantic Relationships and Personalized Content Change Travel Marketing
Not long ago, selling travel was viewed as a somewhat generic, three-step process: shop, check (availability and pricing) and book. Today, powerful technologies are converging which enable marketers to leverage personalized content that is tailored to the unique needs of the individual traveler at all stages of the travel life cycle. This Spotlight examines the ways in which travel marketers can tap these technologies to drive brand loyalty and enhance customer lifetime value (CLV).

Payment Unsettled:Cost Opportunity and Disruption in Travel's Complex Payment Landscape
Once the traveler's wallet is out, an efficient, effective payment experience - or lack of one - can make the difference between winning and losing a sale.

Amid the hustle for image, however, the parallel imperative for payment improvements fell to the wayside. Now the industry must face the challenges that lie behind the curtain.

Last night, I was fortunate enough to attend an advance screening of The Grand Budapest Hotel, Wes Anderson's latest. The film stars Ralph Fiennes and, true to form, has an extensive cast that includes regulars Edward Norton, Tilda Swinton, Adrien Brody, and, of course, Bill Murray.
I'm not a critic or what have you, so I'll keep this short and sweet – the movie is excellent and you should see it. If you've seen it already, then there is a good chance that, like me, you want to see it again.

Computer cannot start up - Start up repair
Hello, i downloaded Comodo CIS yesterday (after uninstalling Avira) with no problems, but this morning my Acer One d270 was unable to start giving a black screen, and i clicked enter on the option to use ''Start up repair'', which only seemed to show the following ;
''Unspecified change to system configuration may have caused the problem error code = ox490''
I managed to start in normal mode in the end and everything seem to be working ok as far as speed etc gos. I installed the VMware - Toolwiz Timefreeze, a couple of days ago. Before that i installed Sandboxie, but then uninstalled after it caused BSOD which according to the dump file was caused by the Intel Graphics Accelerator Drivers for Windows 7(R) file - igdkmd32.sys .
I noticed that for sometime before the latest downloads that when running windows ''fix problems'', that it says i have too many programs running on start up ,so today i disabled, adobe reader + acrobat, google update , and toolwiz so they are not running on start up. I also have Rapport installed and running but its not showing in msconfig start up list so not sure about it. I'm assuming Word,excel,ccleaner,glary utilities, are not running on start up but dont know how to check.
Here is my Windows Start up list via CCleaner ;

I have no idea what i should disable on Start up from here. The Auto.kms is nothing malicious. I think i will try and test out if my hard drive is healthy (any ideas which way is best??) and do a defrag.
Can anybody help with regards to what programs i need on start up, and is it safe to use CCleaner to disable any of the above ?
I'm now going to try to check my HDD out and do a defrag but am not that up on this stuff.
Just did an ''analyse'' for defrag, but only showing 4% so i guess not a problem ? I cant see that the Hard drive is bad as this laptop is not much more than a year old.
Thanks for any help !!

Golden, thanks for the quick reply.
I'm abit of a dummy with this stuff, but should i disable those 3 intel applications on start up ? I dont really understand what they do, or what will happen if they are not allowed to run on start up ??
And what happens when i disable all the stuff in scheduled tasks ?
Hoping i can get educated while i'm doing this stuff.
Thanks again.

Nothing needs to start with Windows 7 except your AV, but if you miss a function or something you prefer to be already running like a Messenger, you can add it back afterwards.

My opinion wasn't listed as a choice: "Good for him. He took a stand when he felt his personal space invaded."
May 13, 2011 - 9:00am#4
That video is as phony as Corwin, another millionaire prima donna who has to delve into Facebook, U-Tube, Craiglist and the like with their monkey business. What scandal will she be into when and if she gets to D.C.????????
May 13, 2011 - 9:40am#5
Enjoy the u-tube video as NY tax payers we paid the salary of the man ith the camera....He's Jane Corwin's legislative chief of staff camaigning on the public's dime...it didn't take Jane long to catch up with the habits of other political big shots having staff working on campaigns....I wonder if he picks up her dirty laundry as well
May 13, 2011 - 10:14am#7
Steve: "What scandal will she be into when and if she gets to D.C.????????" Maybe a shirtless picture on Facebook would help her dwindling chances...... :)
May 13, 2011 - 10:34am#8
Ummmmm.....Bob, I doubt it. I will say that this entire fiasco demonstrates the complete idiocy of this candidate and her handlers. I mean everyone knows Jack is a grumpy old man. Who didn't know that when a young whippersnapper shoved a camera in his face and bombarded him with questions that he wouldn't react the way that he did? And Howard, while Mr. Mallia's actions might have been legal, I couldn't disagree more with you regarding them being ethical. I'm no Jack supporter, but what is ethical about invading the personal space of anyone? I wonder how Mr. Mallia would feel if that were done to his boss while he WAS on the clock. I'm thinking his reaction would be quite different.
May 13, 2011 - 10:35am#9
Shirtless Jane on Facebook ? I still wouldn't vote for her but I would friend and "poke" her good ! ;P
May 13, 2011 - 10:39am#10
I thought the aide was on salary, not a per hour employee.
May 13, 2011 - 10:44am#11
He's on salary and makes in the neighborhood of $40K/ year. Standard practice for political staffers if they want to work for their boss' campaign is to take a leave of absence from their public job.
May 13, 2011 - 12:21pm#15
It should not be about "who" shot the video but the real intent or purpose of the video and how it was being recorded. "Political Paparazzi" should be kept at a reasonable personal space distance period. That includes the reach of my arms out front of my face ! Just saying. WTF edit: I voted sadly it's politics as usual...... edit 12:16pm @ Chris, this should be your blog video for Friday 13.

That person with the camera really needs to take acting lessons, or maybe get on Stone Cold Steve Austin's "Tough Enough" to learn how to take a fall and make it believable. Or, maybe he could just keep his day job.

"Or, maybe he could just keep his day job." He's caused a level of embarrassment to the Erie County GOP high enough so that may not be possible.

None of this is Jane's fault! Why are you persecuting her?
May 13, 2011 - 12:16pm#19
Yeah, you guys are supposed to be honored that she is willing to serve the taxpayers. With her background, she could be a CEO somewhere or back on Wall St. making tons of money. (great old GOP chestnut) Gabor: "I still wouldn't vote for her but I would friend and "poke" her good !" Easy big guy, don't get too excited. LOL

C.M. Barons" None of this is Jane's fault!" "Why are you persecuting her?" C'mon C.M.,where do you live? under a rock?? That "clown" that shot that video works for her!!!!! He is her Chief of Staff!! C'mon C.M. wake up and smell the coffee!!!
May 13, 2011 - 12:30pm#21
"My camera got slapped by Jack Davis and all I got was this T-Shirt that says you're fired!" Jane? WTF?

C.M.? Steve? Heh heh, leave Jane alone, she's not feeling too well right now. "Bite me Karl Rove." - George Richardson, Austin, Texas. Vote for Ian Murphy and send a real message to Washing Machine.

Steve- the video was intended to underscore the facetious tone inherent in my statement.

The day of the candidate NOT videographing their campaigns is coming to an end. This video albeit quite absurd, demonstrates the need for someone (the targeted) to have someone documenting the candidates POV. It is not expensive. My iPod has video ability. Then these videos can easily become a video blog from the candidate and make the candidate a little more real. Again, I defer to Marshall Macluhan "...the medium is the message..."

Using group policy is usually way easier and more effective than messing about with scripts, I'd go with that.
Is there any scripts that I can use to roll out Adobe Flash 10.3 throughout our network? I don't want to use group policy as I know there is an easier/ more effective way via using scripts.
Using group policy is usually way easier and more effective than messing about with scripts, I'd go with that.
Where do I find an MSI copy?
Does anyone have the .msi, I've applied to Adobe but I could really do without waiting for them to reply. We are doing some Testwise testing on Thursday and need the updated software.
Everybody who has signed up to the distribution has a copy of the url you need however it is one of the t&c's not to distribute it.
Why testwise requires the most current version is beyond me.
This bi daily flash update is a pia!!, and I agree, why require the latest version!!! I suppose Adobe will reply tomorrow, then I'll be running round like a blue a@!*d fly getting it on the machines.
Oh the joy.
Usually the link comes through quite quick once you apply, however if you're desperate I'm sure Google will help you out
Software being picky about a point revision of Flash is one of my current pet hates... OK I can understand needing v10 over earlier versions but being so exact you have to be within a few weeks of the latest release is very annoying
Btw 10.3 installed fine on most of our machines via GPO... just one or two that had an older version of 9 needed persuasion to update

Youtube moaning at me today to have the latest version
Flash Player 11 is out next month by the way...
It's difficult to get excited over Flash Player updates given the frequency of them, but this one actually looks good, with hardware-accelerated rendering for 2D and 3D graphics and official support for 64-bit web browsers (at last!).

So it's Book Expo America this week, and many people are writing in with reports about various panels and what the "buzz" is. And someone just said something I enjoyed a lot:
YA marketing panel: "do blog tours & cover reveals!" My question: since EVERYONE does those, how is it not just noise? #bea12
What's a blog tour? A blog tour is when an author is "sent" to various blogs that have accepted or even welcomed the author to the blog to do a guest post or answer questions. You might have anywhere from 5-15 stops on the tour (it really varies). Maybe the average is 5-10, something like that. I've been asked to go on several, and I say no. Here is why.
1. It's a lot of writing. My blog posts tend to be long. It's the way I am. They range from 1,000-4,000 words, depending on how CHIT-CHATTY I feel. But I only tend to write posts when I have something to say. Like now. But okay, let's do the math. Let's say I average 2,000 words, which I do. Let's say I'm asked to do 8-10 stops. That's 16-20,000 words. That about a quarter of a book. One time I did the math on a proposed blog tour and the amount came out to around 35,000 words. It takes me a REALLY LONG TIME to write 35,000 words.
2. But okay. Writing is my job. Let's say I put in the week or two weeks and write these many words (because that is how long it takes me—maybe not full time, but a lot of time). Because I'm writing on the same subject (ME! MY BOOK!) the pieces are going to get VERY REPETITIVE AND BORING. I don't really want to spam the world with my stories of me and my book. A few little things here and there, sure. If I have specific things to say. But I don't want to just shout the same thing in various places. That makes me bored and those corners of the internet boring and I don't want to do it.
3. But okay. Say I manage, through some miracle of science, to write ten pieces that manage to be different! And they're sent out to ten blogs. It would only be right for me to support that blog that is publishing this thing I wrote. But again, I don't want to spam the world and pass on ten links to ME TALKING ABOUT ME. Which isn't going to make the people who kindly hosted my piece very happy. Plus, it's not going to make anyone who follows me happy. And it definitely doesn't make me happy. And then there's awkward point number four…
4. Number four makes me feel funny, but I have to say it, for the sake of honesty and because I care. There are a lot of blogs, and some have a lot of readers, and some have a few readers. And while it's good to do things that will build up good blogs … it's kind of hard for an author to knock him or herself out to write a piece that sometimes only a few people will see.
5. Sometimes the scenario is reversed, and I am asked to host a blog tour. I refuse this as well, for a simple reason—not that I am a big, mean person who doesn't want to help, but that I regard my internet space as mine. It's not a marketing tool. It's not for rent. It's not for sale. It has no ads. That's not what I do. I maintain it just so I can put up whatever crap feels RIGHT. Certainly, there are loads of sites that use their space differently, that have multiple authors and a different function. I'm not saying it's wrong to host a blog tour! NOT AT ALL! I'm just saying it's not for me. So I don't do it. If I change my mind and someone says, "Hey, will you post this?" …well, maybe I'll do it on an individual basis. But, you know. I just like having my own little playground to play in. (But an EXCELLENT example of a blog that regularly hosts other authors is John Scalzi's Whatever, which I have been on, for his "Big Idea" series. it's a thing he does, and it's really good. But it's an organized thing and he moderates it well.)
So, why are blog tours so popular? Why are they on just about every marketing plan? For a start, they don't cost anything. That's a HUGE advantage. There is, you may be surprised to know, precious little money for the marketing of books. And now there are a lot of questions about HOW to market books.
For a new author, a blog tour might be a good idea—or, at least, not a bad one. Some blogs have tons of readers looking for new books. But for authors with a following, I'm not so sure. And I think it may actually be harmful.
I know a lot of writers, and we tend, as a species, to really SWEAT over things. And I do think it's important that in a time when the internet is seen as big and wild and all things are possible … that authors don't get burned out. Because I'm seeing a lot of burnout, people trying to catch up with piles of stuff that never existed before. People trying to catch up by being on all platforms, answering all notes, fulfilling all requests, and writing large piles of extra stuff. And this is not whine, whine, moan, moan … this is about diminishing returns and general wear and tear.
I know I've felt it. I thought I could say yes to everything, and I tried to … and then I crashed and burned. It made me ill, and I realized I had to do something different, that my sitting in front of a computer 12 hours a day was maybe frying the juicy synapses of my brain. So a wise person named Holly Black told me her new relationship with the word "no." She hadn't really used the word until she too got in over her head, so she taped a huge sign over her phone that just said NO. She forced herself to look at it when considering doing something she didn't feel she could take on.
The plan seemed crazy. Surely, if I didn't just agree to everything I was being asked, ever, the entire world would explode, right?
I tried it out a few times. No. It felt kind of odd, but then I got the hang of it. Sometimes, I say no now. I try to say it a lot, actually. Nicely, and with the best of intentions, but I say it. Because I have to remember that I plan on playing a long game. I want to write for the rest of my life, and I want to go outside* and see friends and family and generally have one of those life things. And since I had these feelings on blog tours, I said no. The world did not end.
Sometimes, no means yes. Yes, I want to do lots of things. Yes, I want to write. And yes, I intend to work hard. But smart. And sometimes, I run around with my arms waving over my head. Because living and writing go hand in hand—one doesn't drag the other along.
If you feel like you need it, maybe you can try the word NO? It can do magic things.
* well, "outside-ish"

So dashing, so handsome, so…well, not exactly beaming with mirthful enthusiasm, was he? His partner, meanwhile, was simply too busy for this camera nonsense.
Nathaniel Lord Britton may not have been the smiliest gentleman to sit for a photo op (I'm pretty sure the thousand-yard stare was a requisite back then), but his stern looks belied a boundless joy for botany—an enthusiasm matched only by that of his bryologist wife, Elizabeth Britton (studious to the nth degree), which would ultimately lay the groundwork for The New York Botanical Garden.
The erudite duo met as members of the famed Torrey Botanical Club (now Society) in the 1880s, but it wasn't until after visiting Britain's Kew Gardens on their honeymoon that Elizabeth made her pitch to the Club here in the U.S.: New York deserved its own botanical garden, and the Brittons were more than willing to take the reins. By 1895, only seven years after Elizabeth's proposal, Nathaniel had left his position with Columbia University to take on the newly-established NYBG in the Bronx as its full-time Director—a title he would hold until 1929.
Over the course of almost 50 years, the pair's lasting relationship produced some of the finest botanical work this country has ever seen, covering the publication of numerous landmark texts, the promotion of new botanical nomenclatures, and—of course—the establishment of North America's foremost botanical garden.
It's said that Elizabeth's death in 1934, being such a blow to Nathaniel, contributed to his own death only four months later. I suppose "the couple that gardens together, stays together" is almost an apt aphorism in this case.
Special thanks goes out to the tack-sharp Mia D'Avanza, our Reference Librarian, for coming up with these images via the Mertz Archives. The top left image is, in fact, Nathaniel as a toddler, wearing a unisex dress of the period. —MN

Atom Egoyan to give BAFTA David Lean lecture
Hemler's "Chloe" has gala slot during London Film Festival
Writer/director Egoyan will follow Lean speakers of previous years including David Lynch, Woody Allen, Oliver Stone, Sydney Pollack and Robert Altman.
Egoyan's "Chloe" takes a gala screening slot during The Times BFI London Film Festival, which runs through Oct. 29.

Windows 7 Pro 64bit
Emulate Windows 7 network *locations* in XP mode
I've inquired on Windows 7 forums previously about how to ensure that XP mode has the same protection as Windows 7 when the latter is set to a specific network location e.g. Home/Work/Public network.
Being not very network savvy, I miscommunicated that previous question. I mistakenly asked how to have XP mode emulate the network *profile* that is in effect on Windows 7. What I meant is how to have XP mode emulate the network *location* that is in effect on Windows 7. I don't want the XP virtual machine to be a huge security hole, even though I have the network identified as (say) a Public network in Windows 7. Effectively, this question amounts to asking whether there is a way for xP mode to flip back and forth between different sets of security and firewall settings so as to have the same level of protection as the network locations in Windows 7.
There are two ways that I can see this happening, if it is possible. The best case would be to have the security and firewall settings automatically propagate to the XP virtual machine whenever a network location is selected in Windows 7 (or whenever a network is chosen in Windows 7, since networks are associated with network locations). I suspect that this automatic propagation is not available because life would be too simple if it was. Any comments on this?
The second way I can see this happening is for the poor non-tech-savvy user to figure out all the security and firewall settings that are set by each network location in Windows 7, then create suites of such settings in XP so that they can be manually applied by the user in order to keep XP's security and firewall setting the same as Windows 7's. This means that whenever the network location changes in Windows 7, the user will apply the corresponding suite of settings in XP to get the same effect. This nonideal approach has several assumptions: (1) It assumes that firewall and security settings can be saved a bundle, and that individual bundles can be applied automatically somehow, and (2) it assumes that such settings are easy to determine for the different network locations. It also assumes that the XP machine sees the same network as the Windows 7 machine (otherwise, why would you apply the same security and firewall settings on both machines). Any comments on this?
The final possible scenario is that neither of the two ways are possible or practical. In this case, I would like the XP virtual machine to perpetually have the firewall/security settings of Windows 7's Public network. How would a non-tech-savvy user go about achieving this?

7 Pro Build 7600.16385x64 [2.0 WEI]
Windows 7 doesn't detect/recognize Ethernet Adapter
I upgraded a computer to Windows 7 because it had a corrupt Windows XP install and I wanted to save myself the hassle of reinstalling Windows XP.
I am now having a problem getting the PC to connect to the internet. It says that no Ethernet Driver is installed and it doesn't even detect an adapter with no drivers in Device Manager. I was expecting the yellow exclamation point!
I used Everest to get some details about PC in question and I hope I can post it here.
I found some drivers for this motherboard online and it worked for the audio but I just can't seem to get the LAN working.
This is the page I got the drivers from: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWebSite/Pro...uID=24&LanID=0
I don't know how to install the LAN drivers.
The audio ones only worked when I did Windows XP SP3 compatibility on the EXE. I tried the same thing with the LAN but it said it couldn't find the NIC....am I doing something wrong?

Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 64-Bit
It sounds very much as though your hardware is incompatible with Windows 7.
Before you tried to upgrade you really needed to download and run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, which will flag up any hardware issues.
Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor - Download - Microsoft Windows
If you can find a Windows 7 driver for your LAN adapter you need to download it, save it to your hard drive and install it from there or go into device manager, select your LAN adapter, right-click it and select Update Driver Software.
My best advice to you is to reinstall Windows XP, and then run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

10.6: How to boot into the 64-bit kernel-VMWare Fusion
Hiya guys/gals, one other thing to watch out for is software incompatibility. VMWare Fusion will not run when booted in 64bit mode for example which is a pain. In 64bit kernel mode on my latest Macbook Pro with 4Gb RAM i didn't really see any difference but that was under 10.6.0 and not .1 so maybe it's different now.

5GB hard drive or 5GB of data? 5GB hard drives don't exists.
this is just a ploy for shorts to make more money
Who's going to run off the cliff with BAC????
The Ploy is to get the money back they stole and still stealing – The Money changers are going down – and it's facts – already proven in court – there scams … what going to happen is explain so simple to everybody how they scam – and there aint going to be one congress person – one AG office – that can dare to cover up for them any more…
Notice that BAC says that there is no evidence that Wikileaks has a hard drive of theirs. Not that there isn't any damning evidence! What a statement. You have to read BAC statements very carefully.
must be a HD from early 90s. 5GB is nothing these days. I have more than 5G in just my junk mail folder.
This is a dumb thing for BAC to say. There's no reason to not believe that WLeaks has what they say they have. This just makes BAC look incompetent. What are they going to do? Claim that the docs aren't theirs when they get released?

Blowout in a Box Smooth Styling Kit by BlowPro 6-pc
Item #836434
Blowpro® hair care is professionally tested and proven to give you ultimate blow dry results every time. Our extra nourishing yet weightless formulas are free of harsh sulfates, parabens, and sodium chloride. 100% safe for color and keratin treated hair.
- 1.7 oz repairing shampoo
- 1.7 oz repairing conditioner
- 8.5 oz priming spray
- 4 oz blow dry lotion
- 4 oz shine spray
- 10 oz light hold hair spray
Step 1 (Clean + Nourish):
damage control™ daily repairing shampoo
Finally, a shampoo that will repair hair and boost its resilience in a single application. Blowpro's damage control daily repairing shampoo protects as well as repairs, maximizing condition, flexibility and strength. It contains a unique blend of natural proteins that revitalize damaged hair. While vegetable and wheat protein replace lost nutrients, a phytokeratin complex penetrates the hair shaft, plumping hair to smooth strands and prevent frizz. Free of harsh sulfates, parabens and sodium chloride that can strip hair over time, blowpro's damage control daily repairing shampoo brings noticeable results and long-term protection. It is also keratin compliant so safe for color-treated hair.
How to Use: Massage shampoo into wet hair from the crown of your head to the nape of your neck. Rinse thoroughly with warm water before following with damage control daily repairing conditioner. Shampoo twice if desired.
damage control™ daily repairing shampoo
Blowpro's damage control daily repairing conditioner repairs dry or damaged hair from the inside out. Regular use helps restore health and protects hair from daily stressors. Hair has a noticeably silky finish. Amaranth and Lupine proteins maximize moisture retention without the use of harsh sulfates, sodium chloride or parabens that damage hair long-term. Organic Shea butter soaks into the hair, nourishing and hydrating deep inside the shaft.
How to Use: Apply to freshly cleansed hair, massaging thoroughly from mid-shaft to the ends before smoothing the residual product toward the root. Rinse thoroughly. Can be used as a weekly treatment by wrapping hair in a warm towel after applying the product and leaving for 15 minutes before rinsing. Use after cleansing with damage control daily repairing shampoo for the ultimate hair protection plan.
Step 2 (Prep + Style):
heat is on™ protective daily primer
Heat is on protective daily primer provides essential nutrients that prime and protect hair from heat styling. Working with your hair's natural defenses, its pure protein blend detangles, conditions and strengthens hair weightlessly. Sweet almond detangles, tames flyaways and restores shine. Milk proteins and Aloe Vera team up to gently seal the cuticle, insulating and protecting hair. Rice proteins penetrate the hair shaft, nourishing and moisturizing deep down for increased flexibility. Hair is strengthened, shiny, manageable and fully prepped for a stress-free blowout. It's Vitamin Water for the hair
How to Use: For effective protection from regular blowouts and heat styling, spritz all over freshly cleansed, towel-dried hair before you reach for your dryer. It's lightweight enough for every hair type – even the finest textures. Can also be used on clean, dry hair the day after your blow dry for a touch-up, to fix a side-swept bang or smooth out a ponytail bump.
ready set blow™ express blow dry lotion
Use for an easier, faster, longer-lasting blowout. Micro-heat conductors accelerate the drying process by optimizing the heat from your blow dryer. This significantly reduces drying time which means less stress and damage to the hair. Vitamin B energizes and revitalizes hair. The product's co-polymer blend locks out humidity and smoothes each hair cuticle for long-lasting flexible style. Ready set blow™ express blow dry lotion is residue-free and suitable for every hair type.
How to Use: Coat hands (front and back) with the product. Apply a dime to nickel size for fine to medium texture hair - quarter size for thick, coarser hair. Finger rake the styling product through the under lengths of your hair and use the rest on the outer layers. For smoother results direct the blow dry nozzle down the hair - never back and forth which creates frizz. Ventilate steamy bathrooms prior to blow drying.
Step 3 (Finish):
time to shine™ 3D illuminating mist
The first shine spray to brighten hair from the inside out, and revive and protect dull locks with weightless, invisible coverage from damaging UV rays and daily stress. Time to shine with 3-D mirror reflect technology penetrates instantly to reinforce the internal structure of the hair, brighten hair color and revive dull or coarse hair. This weightless sheer mist with white tea and chamomile extracts replenishes, smoothes frizz and softens the cuticle for lasting illuminating results without greasy residue or buildup. The leading edge UV filter diffuses and reflects light, reducing hair damage from sun exposure by more than 200%.
How to Use: Hold bottle 6-8 inches from dry hair. Mist lightly to reveal multi-dimensional shine, enhance color and shield from damaging UV rays. Can also be scrunched into curly hair to reactivate texture, smooth frizz + brighten style.
blow out spray™ serious non-stick light hold hairspray
For coiffured high-shine styles you can still run your fingers through, blowpro has found the secret to a lighter-than-air set and finish. Infusing your hair with silk and soy proteins, this hair spray fortifies hair, delivering a healthy, silky buildable hold that stays exactly as you intended it. No frizz, flyaways or crunch, just soft, brushable, glossy hair with the stamina to stay that way.
How to Use: Hold about 12 inches from freshly blow dried hair and spray evenly to fix your style. For maximum volume and fullness, flip your head over, spray the roots of your hair and flip back up, allowing the styling product to settle before readjusting. Looking to change your style? No problem, this hairspray will brush right out.

mailing list archives
Novell Groupwise has similar problems with displaying the address book
"name" instead of the address (though Groupwise is *not* vulnerable to the
same attack that forces the spoofed entry into the address book). It would
be nice if these email systems would always display both the name and the
address. Perhaps use both different colors, and the familiar <> construct,
e.g. "myfriend () good example org <attacker () evil example net>" the way
other packages like Netscape Messenger, Mozilla Mail, Pine, and Mutt do.
Good example of how user interface theory can be critical to resolving
security concerns.
Full name/address expansion works very badly when there's a decently sized
list of people receiving emails; instead of a mailing list reading:
Alice, Bob, Charlie, Mallory
You have:
Alice <alice () foo com>, Bob <bob () bar com>, Charlie
<charlietangouniform () foobar com>, Mallory <timmy () gobbles com>
This can be cleaned up slightly by only having one entry per line, but that
gets wasteful of space. While its true that this provides a moderately
effective method for authenticating destinations(at least in this context),
it's so much less succinct that it poses a distinct usability constraint.
Since the job of software is to be usable, not necessarily secure, the
impact of the security noise would probably be enough to prevent the
deployment of the fix.
Nobody applies a patch that breaks what works--guaranteed immediate damage
is much more compelling than theoretical future damage.
A couple people have questioned why not just reject all "true names" that
contain an @ sign. For better or worse, having an @ in your name is not
necessarily a sign of illegitimacy: A small but non ignorable minority of
individuals tend to spell their names using an @ as a replacement for a.
While not particularly my style, I don't think any of us can arbitrarily
choose to reject the character when more than a few of us receive network
links from @Home and respect people at @Stake.
Perhaps a "true name" filter along the lines of * () * TLD? I think that's
pretty much what the user is interpreting as a differentiator between real
names and email addresses.

The 11th Annual Ladies' Night will be December 1, 2014 at Westmoor Country Club. Swag bags, wine pulls, auctions, raffles and so much more are all part of the fun.
So dust off your party pants, little black dress or something shiny and bring your friends to Westmoor Country Club December 1st for Ladies' Night.
Registration will be available on-line late October. Check our Facebook page or back here for more details. It is sure to be a night filled with fun, laughter and loot!
Ladies' Night is a fundraiser held by the Elmbrook Education Foundation (EEF) to help support intiatives within the Elmbrook School District. The EEF committed $100,000 to the district in support of the Project Lead the Way-STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) initiative in middle schools and is working to raise the remainder of that commitment at this year's Ladies' Night. With your support, we will reach that goal and be able to focus efforts to fund the endowment, which will continue to support the district for many years to come.
ATTENTION DONORS: We are looking for unique items and services for our silent auction and raffles during Ladies' Night. If you have something you'd like to donate, please use this form. We appreciate your support.
Public education in Elmbrook has been traced back to Leland School in Elm Grove in 1842, six years before Wisconsin became a state. On August 12, 1963, seven K-8 school districts and one 9-12 school district formed as the K-12 Elmbrook Schools Joint Common School District #21. In June of 1964, the combined district celebrated its first graduating classes at Brookfield Central and Brookfield East High Schools. On July 8, 1976 the district name was changed to the School District of Elmbrook and now, in 2014, we celebrate 50 years of Elmbrook District graduates and a storied history of student, staff and community excellence.
To celebrate five decades of excellence, a weekend of activities is scheduled for August 22-23, including:
- High School Home Football Games
- 5K Run/Walk
- Alumni; soccer, basketball, volleyball and softball games
- Evening Celebration at the Sharon Lynne Wilson Center
Most events are free and we encourage all our alumni and the Elmbrook community as a whole to particpate. Registration is available here. The evening community celebration will feature a walk-through time honoring some of the district's most outstanding alumni, teachers and community supporters. To make a nomination visit the district page here. The district looks forward to connecting with alumni across the globe through its Facebook page and throughout the weekend.
The Elmbrook Education Foundation is taking donations for the endowment fund to ensure another successful 50 years with our $50 for 50 More Years Campaign. We challenge the entire Elmbrook community–both past and present–to support our educational future. Donations can be made through this link.

With great anticipation and eagerness, we present a West Australian Opera premiere in Giuseppe Verdi's towering masterpiece Otello. Italian tenor Antonello Palombi makes his West Australian Opera debut as Otello alongside one of Australia's leading sopranos, Cheryl Barker as Desdemona. Perth baritone James Clayton will make his role debut as the treacherous Iago. This exciting new production will be produced in a bold new staging in collaboration with the Perth International Arts Festival.
City of Perth's Opera in the Park will be Giacomo Puccini's Tosca staged by Stuart Maunder, conducted by Brian Castles-Onion and starring Anke Höppner as the tempestuous heroine. Tosca returns to Perth again for what is surely one of opera's greatest thrillers.
This year, I am particularly pleased to highlight the achievements of the Wesfarmers Arts Young Artist Program as we feature both current members and alumni among our casting line-up. I am especially proud to single out James Clayton who will take on three major baritone roles in our season: Papageno in Flute, Count di Luna in Trovatore, and Iago in Otello.
The talented members of our Young Artist Program represent the future of opera and it is West Australian Opera's great pleasure to present them to you this season.
Rachel McDonald joins us to direct Göran Järvefelt's beautiful production of Mozart's The Magic Flute. The opera will be performed entirely in English making this the perfect opera for the entire family. Children of all ages will surely be enchanted by the delightfully magical story and some of Mozart's most charming music. This lyrically uplifting opera will feature Australian tenor Alexander Lewis in his West Australian Opera debut, fresh from his successes as a member of the Metropolitan Opera's Lindemann Young Artists Development Program. Former Young Artist Katja Webb sings Pamina and James Clayton will return for his delightful portrayal of the bird-catcher Papageno. Frequent West Australian Opera guest Brad Cohen will conduct. We are also proud to present important debuts of two current Young Artists, Sarah Guilmartin and Caitlin Cassidy as First Lady and Third Lady.
We will close 2014 with a return to Verdi and his darkly brooding Il Trovatore in a strikingly atmospheric production by Elke Neidhardt. This opera features some of Verdi's most exciting and heroic music including the thrilling Anvil Chorus. Jennifer Rowley will make her West Australian Opera debut as Leonora with Australia's leading lyric tenor Rosario La Spina as Manrico. We are also delighted to welcome back mezzo-soprano Elizabeth Campbell in her role as the gypsy Azucena.
The stirring voices of the West Australian Opera Chorus and the superb instrumentalists of the West Australian Symphony Orchestra will join forces with us to present a season of opera featuring some of the greatest and most stimulating works in the repertory. I look forward to welcoming you personally to the 2014 season; it's a season not to be missed!

More good stuff.Re: the aerial view of Irvine...I was travelling through that area a couple of times a month back in '76 and remember how many ground squirrels were in those fields now covered by industrial buildings. There was also a sugar mill that would have been off to the right in the picture.I was at Tustin and 17th yesterday. What a difference.Keep working those archives brother.Oh yeah, what's the answer to the squiggly line question?--Pain is weakness leaving the body
It meant "STOP AHEAD". I don't remember seeing that anywhere else in this state. My first introduction to it was in Capo Beach in 1960, where Palisades Drive dropped down onto PCH.It very well could have been an ORCO thing.
That's a northern view from ETR. I demand a western view from Live Oak Cyn Rd.

OK, take 2.
that looks exactly like the foothills leading into the western slopes of the northern sierra nevadas. maybe near placerville.
So are you saying the foothills leading into the Western slopes of the Northern Sierra Nevadas are covered with OC style McMansions and neighborhoods dominated by the tyranny of the HOA?
I think red is a great color for a Passat. Or is that one of those new Hyundai's?
A Passat with a badge kit.
what the hell is a badge kit, and @RFC: if you head east from sacramento (which is admittedly further north than i was thinking), then yes.
Badge kit - those small decorations manufacturers stick on the sheet metal in an effort to distinguish an otherwise nondescript vehicle. Glue a couple of S4 and V8 badges on a Passat and voila, you have a $60k VW.
ah. decals and externalized peni.
There are internal ones?
Wish I could read what the gas prices were that day.--Pain is weakness leaving the body
I remember Shopping Bag.
I hate change. And the Dodgers.
amazing caption.
We can't be too careful in this post 12-7 world.

FORT MYERS, Fla.-- The 5th Annual Unity in the Community End of School Block Party is Friday, June 10th, across from the Dunbar Community School in Fort Myers.
What started as a concerned woman serving hot dogs and playing music on a CD player has turned into a large gathering for neighbors to promote peace on the last day of school.
Six years ago, Taunya Cole witnessed a fight between children on the final day of class. Cole decided she wouldn't let that happen in her neighborhood again. The next year, she threw a part to mark the end of the school year and say "good job" to the youth in her community.
The party offers free entertainment, food, bounce houses, a water slide and prizes at the corner of Blount St. and High St. in Fort Myers.
It runs from 12 pm to 4:30 pm.

The Mary Sue: NY Times to YA Publishing: Stop Being So Girly
There's much that's wrong with Lipsyte's screed about gendered stories—starting with the fact that insisting that readers occupy a gender binary leaves no room for transgendered and gender neutral readers, or readers struggling with gender identity—but the most inherently offensive to me, as a…
YES, PLEASE DO! :D *is an Aja*
