Uh, may I ask exactly why you and another staff member closed two DIFFERENT topics, saying they were duplicates *even though not one single phrase even was duplicated in the two DIFFERENT topics), and redirected them to each other?

Compare your screen shot to the WHOLE services screen. Your screen shot shows just 13 services running. No way is that all. Certainly, you have many times more than that! Therefore, your screen shot is pretty much worthless.I am not sure why you say there are more services running then there are,
Of course? Wow! Excuse me for trying to help but as I said, anyone can CLEARLY tell by the slider on the right there are many more services running than your shot shows. The fact we can see Application Management under Services (Local) indicates you had that service highlighted when you took the screen shot! But as we all can see, it is not shown on your list. Why? Because you failed to show the whole list!nor do I have any idea why you would say "none of them are unusual" - of course they are not unusual,
That is not true - in either case. The likely cause is you deleting entries from the Registry that you had no clue what they were for. You blame Microsoft and Bill Gates but did you take the common sense precaution to back up the Registry before dinking with it? I suspect not.Since the most common cause of something like this would be a service that needs to be running, Current process running were shown:".
Edited by 123Runner, 04 July 2010 - 03:50 PM.
Actually there are 9 services running in that screenshot, and that is because I was starting the ones I thought could be needed, and then leaving them running in case more then one was needed at once. Yet you say there are 13, and then expect "Many times more then that"? 13 is quite a bit! In fact I think that may be close to the number Windows has a a default! (The ones that stay running anyway.)Compare your screen shot to the WHOLE services screen. Your screen shot shows just 13 services running. No way is that all. Certainly, you have many times more than that!
How exactly does a scrollbar tell you whether or not I have services running and am for some extremely stupid reason (that is, it would be a very stupid thing to do if I had done it) lie to the board about how my computer is set up while asking for help, not only with the computer, but most likely with that very setting?!Therefore, your screen shot is pretty much worthless. ... Of course? Wow! Excuse me for trying to help but as I said, anyone can CLEARLY tell by the slider on the right there are many more services running than your shot shows.

Laptop services work the same way as non-laptop servicesYou also failed to tell us anything about your computer (heck, this might even be a laptop)
On this board your Windows version is listed underneath your screenname, so it does not have to be mentionedor version of Windows,
My mistake, I said I appreciate you posting, sorry about that. I would not rather spend "all of my time" making any of these absolutely ridiculous posts, but apparently the moderate would prefer me to spend amounts of my time doing that. it is rather hard to get help with a problem if the thread you posted the problem in is arbitrarily closed for no reason. And, since "installing software" has absolutely nothing, in any way, whatsoever, and there is not a single possible connection you could make between the two, to do with "trying to figure out which registry entries were deleted and whether or not they are importantly needed", unless it was an inability to install or uninstall software DUE to registry errorsand apparently would rather spend all your time arguing about the other thread being closed when it IS related to this same hardware and problem!
You screwed up by making what was probably a simple problem worse by messing with the Registry, came here seeking FREE support by scattering loosely defined symptoms across multiple posts and blaming MS and BG in the process. Then you complain when rshaffer, in an attempt to understand this debacle, tries to consolidate and make sense of the facts, and cop an attitude with me when I said your partial list of services shown looks normal. All the while, you expect us to understand what you are talking about when you say, "a window opens up, then disappears before it stops being white."
Not really, rschaffer has ranted a bit and I predictably replied, the other guy, well for a minute he acted like he was trying to help with a sad face, but then he decided he was better then me again just because I know how to tell whether a service is running or something, but yes it is reasonable to get annoyed when someone posts in a topic saying they are "helping" but they don't really know about the subject, because the only time a post in that case it neither annoying nor rude is when they say, "I don't know much about it but maybe you can try...", or, "I didn't read the whole thing cause it was long but if you haven't tried X then....". In fact those people often do get corrected by the OP, then they generally reply by saying, "Oh okay I didn't know that sorry I couldn't help you." Rather then accusing someone of lying just because they don't know how to read services... thing is, if I KNOW I don't know about something then i am not going to post in the topic. If I think I MIGHT know, I will mention that "This is not my area of knowledge but I do know that... ". And that is pretty much what anyone else like that does around tech support board on the internet, too.You have ranted and raved all day now when we are only trying to help.
Actually, the services installed on all copies of the same basic version (home/Pro/etc.) plus service pack are exactly the same, except for those installed by 3rd-party applications, some of which may include OEM services or programs. At least according to every single website which does "services guides". However, any service that is not installed on every single copy of Windows XP SP2 shouldn't be needed for an install, since that would mean some computers aren't allowed to install it.You mention services. You have not shown them all. There are services that will not always be identical on all computers.
You have no idea what my "attitude" is like, considering that you are the only one who has not had an "attitude" when posting to me in this topic, e=yet still initiated those who were being rude, insulting, and/or posting without knowledge or posting strange and unrelated things. Anyone who is being attacked will point out the problems with the pseudo-logic of the attackers, if it applies. The only thing that I will reply to by saying "that doesn't make any sense," or a similar thing, is when someone says something that either a) has no relevance b) is clearly incorrect ("Your service must be running because it was highlighted when you took the screenshot") c) is insulting or rude d) involves a manipulative attempt to get as far off the topic of the tech problem as possible or e) is about computers and tech problems in general, but is completely unrelated to what the actual problem is... such as when an idiot on Yahoo !Answers replied to a question abut how to reset the size and position of YIM windows by explaining how to move them around manually - something that anyone asking the question couldn't possibly not know!I can tell you from your attitude that anything that we tell you or advise you to do you will throw back at us.

I am refreshing my 20-year old pool, including decking, Pebble Sheen, etc . I'm also thinking of springing for a Pentair Intellichlor system with controller. This is the 8SC-IC40 kit that includes Qty 2, 3-way actuator valves. I already have pump, Hayward DE filter, etc. that are in good working order. This diagram illustrates what I am thinking the new plumbing should look like. The items in red are the new parts, everything else is existing. This diagram does not show the heater, do not have solar panel, etc. I am also thinking to pick up an additional 3-way actuator, and use that to control between skimmer and vacuum.
Does this look right? Should I do something different? Thanks in advance for your advice! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Heater? IC unit is always last. |
Heater = yes, just not shown. Here is what it would look like with 2 more 3-way valves. Does this look like the right way to switch this system? |
- Posted by muddy_water (My Page) on Wed, Jun 13, 12 at 5:52
You may have to go with a Intellitouch controller rather than a Easytouch for this setup with a heater.. |
Ok - thanks. I'll check into whether the easytouch can handle. Do you cascade 3-way valves like this to control your pool? |
Your plumbing layout has some issues. The 1st actuator should select spa suction or pool and suction side cleaner. The suction side cleaner line would need a spring loaded cover in the pool. It cannot be the sole suction capable line as your drawing depicts. Its a submerged suction and would otherwise violate the VGB Act. I would suggest a pressure side line or use a robot or an in-floor system. The spa doesn't need its own, dedicated return. The spa jets can be left slightly open so enough return water can cause it to spill over. Why doesn't the fountain have its own pump. The fountains and running the spa might be wanted at the same time. It also eliminates an actuator. You also implied additional water features via additional actuators. The fountain pump can be used there too. Just keeping it off the pool/spa pump adds a lot of flexibility. Easytouch and Intellitouch can both do it with the cell power coming from inside. The Easytouch though, is maxed at four actuators, if I remember but that could also be just two. The on line docs aren't specific and I don't have my training docs handy to look it up. Scott |
Thank you for you feedback! I hadn't thought about the fountain having it's own pump, but that is a really good idea. Should the fountain pump always get suction from the pool drain? The side cleaner does have a spring loaded cover. With our current pool configuration and all pipes having manual ball valves, I frequently have all the suction off except for the side cleaner (using a robot). Seems to work well like this. I was thinking I would program 1-2 hours per day for the robot, and the rest of the time for the skimmer. Bad idea? You are right about Easytouch being maxed at 4 actuators for the 8 relay version that I purchased. |
Quick followup question - what size pump would you recommend for the fountain - pool guy is calling this a sheer descent. |
All pumps, except for pool sweep boosters, should have their own suction. If I had, for example, a pool with a spa and a 30 foot waterfall, the waterfall pump would be a separate unit with its own suction. That suction can be floor drains, side wall mounted drains, or a channel drain. Always be mindful of the VGB act's requirements. Also note that side suctions can be a PITA to winterize and that the same drain pots/covers will have lower capacities because of the lowered velocity allowed. Expect 10 GPM per foot for sheers. Any excess pump capacity should be sent to a dedicated pool return with a valve so only the desired volume of water is sent to the sheer. The pump size will be dictated by the number of and size of the sheers. Scott |

Florida Man Arrested for Masturbating at the Beach and Making Animal Sounds
Apparently no one clued in Miguel Angel Rivera Flores to all of that. He's been taking his pick-up strategies from the zoo, and was arrested for making animal noises to try to attract woman while he was publicly masturbating at a Bonita Spring Beach.
Lee County Deputies had received multiple reports of a man reportedly trying to lure woman and children to him by making animal noises. Once he got their attention he whipped out his animalhood and begin masturbating.
Flores had reportedly even been hiding in bushes and sneaking around outside public beach showers while making the noises.
Deputies finally caught the man when they got a tip that he was hiding behind a foreclosed home in the area.
Flores now faces prowling charges, but could face more legal trouble as according to the Naples Daily News he is an illegal immigrant.

I read that you should dig up glads after they die back, but then in another place I read you could overwinter them. Because my zone is pretty warm, could I just leave them in the ground to overwinter instead of digging them up? And at one point are they supposed to be divided?
Enlighten me please. -A seminewbie. |

Yes, in your zone you can just leave them in the ground - cutting the stalks down once they brown out and die back in the fall. Each year, the glad produces one large new corm and many cormlets - eventually the little cormlets will produce new plants which will take several years to reach blooming size. When new plants have established, you can dig them up in the fall and simply respace them to keep them from crowding eachother out. |

Nice!! Does that apply to freesias too? Can I leave them in the ground as well? Or no? I'm planting then in the fall. Thanks. |
- Posted by duluthinbloomz4 (My Page) on Tue, Jun 2, 09 at 16:06
We don't see freesias here - except at florists. Freesias are hardy in zones 9-10 so they could be more work for you. They might survive in the ground if you plant them in a protected area and mulch them over the winter. |
My glads come back every year and multiply too. I am trying freesias for the first time this year and plan to try to leave them in the ground. We'll see what happens. |
Definitely Glads can be perennial in our zones. Not just the species Glads, but the florist Glads as well. |

Julie Dancziger, M.S.W. '11, is a mother, grandmother, entrepreneur and now a licensed social worker, specializing in geriatric care. She said that getting her graduate degree was "something I had always wanted to do," butshe had to wait until her five children were "on their way." Her youngest is now 20 years old; her oldest is 29, and two of her children have children of their own.
The events of 9/11 and their profound effect on her and her clients propelled Ms. Dancziger toward an M.S.W. At the time, she was working as a social services coordinator for the United Jewish Council/Bialystoker Houses, a residence for low-income elderly on Manhattan's Lower East Side. Witnessing her clients' frightened reaction to 9/11 made her realize how vulnerable the senior population is. "You were able to see it from our windows, and a lot of them [the residents] are Holocaust survivors," Ms. Dancziger said. "The smell was like a crematorium, and it was really bringing back their memories of the Holocaust."
Ms. Dancziger was accepted to all four social work programs she applied to and chose Adelphi because, she said, "I was very impressed with the caliber of the professors and the program, as well as the diversity and opportunities that Adelphi offered."
Once enrolled, she found great mentors among the approachable faculty members. Having been out of school for more than 20 years, she had to relearn how to learn. "I didn't even know how to use a computer when I started," she said. She caught on quickly, though, and earned nearly a 4.0 GPA. Last spring, Adelphi successfully nominated her for the Student of the Year Award from the New York Chapter of the National Association of Social Workers. "It actually took me by surprise," she said about the honor.
Ms. Dancziger feels that her Adelphi experience deepened her commitment to serving the senior population. "I find it really quite fascinating to be able to learn from people who have the ability to reflect upon decades of experience," she said. "They are a vulnerable population, and they don't have a voice. They need someone that can advocate for them."
Advocating for and helping seniors was far from Ms. Dancziger's agenda when she went to college and started working. She studied business as an undergraduate and later started what she said was a successful children's clothing boutique. While remunerative, running her business in a dog-eatdog environment was spiritually draining.
"I just felt like something in me was lacking," she said. "I knew that I had to switch gears." She then worked in a doctor's office in the early days of managed care and said she was struck by how many people were denied "what they really rightfully deserved.
"My sense of justice and advocacy led me into social work."
Ms. Dancziger said that if she could change one thing today, it would be the way society defines aging. "The perception of a senior is very much affecting how people treat them, and I think it's a great misnomer because seniors today are much younger, more viable [and] living longer, and people fail to realize what productive members of the community they are and can still be," she said.

Big waves ultimately not big enough for Eddie Aikau contest this week
by: Catherine E. Tothposted: Fri Jan 21, 2011 at 06:46 PM
The Eddie was a no-go yesterday, but the pros still rode the waves for fun. This 25-footer was one of the larger waves of the day. Photo by David Croxford.
Despite big-enough waves at Waimea Bay on Thursday, the contest director for the Quiksilver in Memory of Eddie Aikau ultimately decided conditions weren't good enough for "The Eddie."
George Downing called a no-go for the big-wave competition on Thursday, citing the inconsistency of the day's swell. The big stuff—20- to 25-foot waves—weren't coming in consistently enough for the contest's two rounds of competition, he said. (Wave heights need to consistently reach at least 20 feet in order to hold the contest.)
"What we see in conditions like this is just one or two true 'Eddie'-size waves in the period of a heat," Downing said. "With seven surfers in the water per heat, that is not the kind of playing field we need for quality, fair competition."
The postponement was a disappointment for the more than 15,000 spectators who fought traffic and searched for parking to watch the event, commonly called "The Eddie." Because of its strict standards for wave heights, the contest has only been held eight times in the past 25 years—the last time being December 2009. Still, the crowd at Waimea Bay yesterday did get to see pro surfers tackle the massive waves at the bay anyway, just for fun.
The holding period of "The Eddie" runs through Feb. 28, so there's still plenty of time for the contest to happen.

"It's very easy to get caught up in the excitement when those huge waves come through, and after all of the efforts of the crew and the spectators to get ready for this day," Downing said. "But what keeps this event the greatest big wave event in the world is never relaxing those standards. Eddie never did."
Beyond this week, forecasters point to a favorable jet steam flow that will likely create extra-large surf through the end of the month and into February. Organizers are hopeful that the swells will be large enough and consistent enough on at least one full day to hold The Eddie.
The Quiksilver In Memory of Eddie Aikau is the world's longest running and most prestigious big-wave invitational and the only one sanctioned by the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP), the governing body of professional surfing.
The contest pays tribute to legendary Hawaiian surfer and North Shore lifeguard Eddie Aikau. The invitation-only professional contest is held over a single day—this season, between Dec. 1, 2010 and Feb. 28, 2011—when waves exceed the minimum 20-foot threshold. The purse this year is $98,000.

Obama to visit CIA headquarters to thank workers
May 18, 2011 - 9:14 AM
WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House says President Barack Obama will visit CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., on Friday to thank employees there for their work in tracking down Osama bin Laden.
The visit will come a day after Obama delivers a broad speech at the State Department on Middle East policy in a post-bin Laden world.
A White House spokesman says the president wants to personally thank America's intelligence community for their work keeping the country safe and for the years of effort that went into tracking down bin Laden in Pakistan, where Navy SEALS found and killed him earlier this month.

This rose was found growing on the beach in Massachusetts. It has lots of tiny thorns and flattish rose hips the size of small tomatoes (Almost two inches wide and flat). Mostly passed blooming now, but still has a few flowers.
It's important because there are a couple species it could be, one is native, one is invasive. Depending on what it is, I may try to take cuttings and spread it around. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Without a picture it is very difficult to make a guess. That being said, rugosa roses have lots of little prickly thorns and their hips are as you describe. Their leaves have ridges on the surface and I often see them in beach areas here on the west coast. I'll put a link to some HelpMeFind search results for rugosas -- click on the rose names and you can see more photos, some including stems, leaves and some hips: |
Here is a link that might be useful: rugosa search results
Oh, yes - definitely a rugosa, I'll link the Wikipedia description below, which mentions that it is a common beach rose in Massachusetts: |

In 2009 two Virginia Commonwealth University Fashion Merchandising graduates combined their knowledge of the fashion industry with being mothers and set out on a mission to showcase that style made simple is not only smart, but also fashionably cute.
The design duo of Anna Muzzy and Nancy Gutierrez created Rock Me! which is a collection of fashionably flexible clothing for the little person in your life. The designers are updating the classic romper by making it comfortably chic for children and allowing parents style in a snap by removing all those snaps that are usually found in clothing for small children.
The creative designers have recently taken on a new project which includes expanding the line which is completely designed, sourced, and manufactured in the U.S.A.
The line that offers garments for both boys and girls can be found on their website or at stores across the nation. To stay connected with the growing label you can find them on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest.
