Join photographer and author Chris Orwig in Photoshop Lightroom 4 Essentials: Organizing and Sharing with the Library Module, as he explores the interface of this popular image-management program and shows how to use its Library module to organize and manage a photo library. The course covers importing both still images and video; shooting in tethered-capture mode; organizing and rating images with flags, stars, labels, and location tags; and working with collections. The course also details how to export, email, and share photos, and introduces the Lightroom 4 video-editing features, as well as its ability to work together with the full editing power of Photoshop. Exercise files are included with the course.
By this point everyone knows that RAW processing, it's so wonderful and powerful because it gives us flexibility. In other words, we can make nondestructive edits. We can change something, and then always go back and change it back. So we have this built-in flexibility. It also allows us to be really fast. There isn't any rendering or saving. Well, one of the things that's been introduced in this whole concept of RAW processing is what are called Smart Objects. Smart Objects maintain the link to that original flexibility.
In order to have that flexibility when we go to Photoshop say from Lightroom, we can edit a photograph as a Smart Object, and I want to look at that process. So let's say we have this picture here and we decide to edit this one in Photoshop. We can access this by going to our Photo pull-down menu, Edit in, and then we have an option for Open as Smart Object in Photoshop. What this will do is it will keep all of this raw data as part of this Photoshop document, and let me show you what I mean. Once this file opens up in Photoshop, you will notice in the Layers panel over here, we have an icon which is a little bit different.
This is a Smart Object icon here. If you are not familiar with Smart Objects at all in Photoshop, it may be helpful to watch a movie in the Lynda.com Training Library on Smart Objects. For now though, I just want to point out how this works. For example, let's say that I decide you know what, I really wish that in Lightroom, or in Camera RAW so to speak, I had made some sort of an adjustment, may be added Contrast or Color Saturation or whatever. Well, what you can do now in Photoshop is you can't go back to Lightroom, and all the Develop controls there, but you can open up the Camera RAW controls inside of Adobe Camera RAW.
To do that, we just double-click this little icon here in the Layers Panel and it opens up Camera RAW whatever version we have. In this case, I could go ahead and make my Contrast and maybe Color Saturation adjustments or whatever it is in order to kind of boost this image up, and give it a little bit more of a kick in regards to its look and feel. Here, we have that preview; before, and then after. So again, anything we want to do in Camera RAW, we can access. We can go ahead and click OK, and apply those. It's going to prepare those Smart Object controls to be visible here in this dialog, and there they are.
If we don't like them, well again, we double-click this icon, we go back to this Camera RAW window, we make another adjustment, whatever that is. Again, just really drastically trying to have some sort of a change here, as you can see making this change, click OK, and then again, it's going to redraw this image with those new set of instructions. Now, that's part of this file, and this stays part of the file. Even if we Save and Close it, it will become part of this file. Let's take a look at that process just to kind of complete this overall workflow loop.
So here I will go ahead and choose File and Save. Then, we will choose File and Close and now back in Lightroom. Well, here in Lightroom, we can see we have this file, it's a TIF file. But, it's a TIF file with a Smart Object inside of it. So if we want to reopen the file in Photoshop, we already know how to do that, right? You press Command+E or Ctrl+E. That gives us the ability to edit this file. What I want to do is edit the original file. So I will click Edit. This will open up the original TIF file here inside of Photoshop and once this one opens up, well notice, we still have that icon that we've had before.
We can double-click it, say rather than a black-and-white conversion, we want color, and then click OK, and you can see that will then update this file. So again, it just kind of has this infinite loop of flexibility built into the file. So some of you maybe thinking, all right, this is great! Why not do this all the time because you can always make changes. Well, of course, flexibility like this comes at somewhat of a price, and the price is file size. So when making Smart Objects, it increases your file size.
So what you have to do is just kind of decide what is the trade-off. Is this a good way to have added flexibility, and for some, it definitely is. For other images, perhaps not so much. But again, now you know how this works, so that you can start to kind of evaluate, is this something that I want to do? Will I want to have this extra added flexibility? And if it is, all you need to do is to choose to open that file as a Smart Object in Photoshop, and it will remain connected to those Camera RAW controls, and you will be able to make those changes as needed.

Marco Azurdia had a spacious view from his third-floor office at Wenatchee Valley College. He was beloved in the community, and enjoyed having an impact on students lives as a vice president at the two-year college where he had worked for 20 years.
So why did Azurdia, 49, leave that behind for an out-of-the-way office on the Clark College campus, a space that he notes with a chuckle was once a bathroom?
"I've always had an eye on this job," he said, smiling as he looked around his cozy digs.
The job Azurdia jumped at is executive director of the Northwest Athletic Association of Community Colleges, the organization that oversees sports for 34 two-year colleges in Washington and Oregon. Azurdia was hired in the summer of 2011 when Dick McClain retired after 19 years in the job.
Azurdia's vision is to make participating in NWAACC events a big-time experience for the athletes and the college community. His game plan includes making the sports experience consistently first-class at all NWAACC venues and helping coaches and administrators make the most of often limited resources.
"For a lot of community college athletes this is the end of the road," Azurdia said. "I want to try to move the league to make sure those two years are special years."
The executive director's responsibilities range from addressing eligibility issues and discipline, to planning major events such as this week's NWAACC basketball tournament in Kennewick, to long-range strategies for improvement.
"His energy level is just off the charts," said Dr. Walt Tribley, president of Monterey (Calif.) Peninsula College, who worked alongside Azurdia at Wenatchee Valley College. "Marco would work all day as vice president of student development and then volunteer to do whatever was needed at the basketball games that night."
It will take more than energy and passion to turn Azurdia's vision for NWAACC into reality. Azurdia understands that the cultures and challenges at the NWAACC schools are as varied as the vast territory the league covers. As a basketball coach for Wenatchee Valley -- he won 220 games in 11 seasons as the women's head coach for the Knights -- his teams played in front of lively crowds and he was often recognized in the grocery store. At more-urban community colleges, including Clark College, athletics is less ingrained in the culture.
But such differences shouldn't prevent every NWAACC program from providing a first-class experience for the athletes, Azurdia said.
"I'm trying to change that 'Oh, it's just juco ball' attitude," Azurdia explained.
His ideas range from implementing an online system for coaches to exchange game video (thus limiting the need to travel to scout opponents) to online certification for coaches and of athletes' eligibility.
As a coach and athletic director at Wenatchee Valley, Azurdia did not view limited resources as an excuse for a second-rate product.
"He does have big ideas, and I think that's a good thing," said Jim Martineau, the current chairman of the NWAACC executive board and athletic director at Clackamas Community College. "For Marco, it's all about the student-athlete experience, and he doesn't want it to be just another mediocre college experience."
Brent Darnell was the point guard for the Wenatchee Valley men's basketball team that won the 1996 NWAACC title. Azurdia was an assistant coach for that team in addition to being the head coach for the women's team.
"He had an ability to be tough, demanding and intense," Darnell said. "But when practice was over and you left the gym you feel like you were great friends. It was amazing the relationship he built with his players."
Darnell went on to coach girls basketball at Eastmont High School in East Wenatchee, a path he said he wouldn't have considered until he witnessed Azurdia coaching the women's team at Wenatchee Valley.
"He can get along with anybody," Darnell said, describing one reason he expects Azurdia to have great success directing NWAACC. "You might not agree with him or like his opinion, but you know where he stands on things. And he'll work with you. He's not going to throw you under the bus."
The advocate in Azurdia is clear when he discusses the need to raise expectations at each community college. That includes small details such as making sure a visiting team has clean towels in the locker room, he said. The bigger picture is to encourage leaders at every college in the NWAACC to make athletics a priority on campus.
"I would like to get coaches and athletic directors to help make athletics relevant on their campus," Azurdia said. "Is athletics the be-all, end-all? No. But I would say the same thing about music or art. Like those things, athletics is a vehicle that can impact and change people."
Tribley predicts that Azurdia is in the right job at the right time.
"Marco is an innovator and a person who has a vision for what athletics is and what it can be for students. It's absolutely a great fit to have somebody of his character leading the athletic conference," Tribley said.
Darnell, the former point guard, also predicts success. He's just not sure how long Azurdia will last with the NWAACC.
"It wouldn't surprise me if the guy is an athletic director at a big time Pac-12 school down the road," Darnell said.
Azurdia said he already has his dream job.
"This is it for me. I love coming to work every day," he said.
If Azurdia has one regret about taking the NWAACC job, it's his office. Not because it's a relatively small space without the river view he had in Wenatchee. But because tucked away on the west side of Fort Vancouver Way, he doesn't have the daily interaction with students that he had during his days as a coach and administrator at Wenatchee Valley College.
For that reason, he prefers a door is open so he can hear students' voices as he works to ensure doors are open for community college athletes — that they are treated fairly and have a college experience that helps them succeed beyond the sports arena.
"I got into athletics as a coach to impact lives," Azurdia said. "And this job is another significant way to do that."

Originally written on Fox Sports Houston | Last updated 5/6/12
HOUSTON (AP) -- Tyler Greene hit a career-high two homers and drove in four runs, Adam Wainwright continued his dominance of the Astros and the St. Louis Cardinals got an 8-1 win over Houston on Sunday. The victory breaks a season-long five-game winning streak for the Astros and ends a three-game skid for the Cardinals. Allen Craig also homered for St. Louis, getting things going with a two-run shot in the first inning. Greene's two-run home run in the fourth pushed the lead to 6-0 and his solo homer in the eighth made it 8-1. Wainwright (2-3) allowed seven hits and one run with seven strikeouts in seven innings. He improved to 10-1 in 17 career appearances against the Astros -- his most wins against any team. Houston starter J.A. Happ (2-2) allowed six hits and a season-high six runs -- five earned -- in five innings.

13 Celebrity Superstitions for Friday the 13th

Happy Friday the 13th, THG readers!
On the most superstitious of all superstitious days, we're here to make you feel better about the fact that you may avoid walking underneath some ladders today.
Some get boob jobs (like, REALLY huge boob jobs).
Other suffer from some serious makeup disasters.
Ding! Ding! It is totally on between Christian Bale and...
George Clooney?!?
Celebrity power couples tend to make the most headlines, but not every star requires someone who shares the limelight when it comes to finding love.
For every Beyonce and Jay Z, or Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, there's a happy union between a celebrity and their somewhat unlikely match.
When it comes to Hollywood rumors about celebrity behavior, many of them are just plain lies. But when you start to hear the same rumor over and over and over?
Well, maybe there's actually some truth to it.
When it comes to that miscreant Justin Bieber, neither Canada nor the United States seems to want the kid, if Olympic hockey billboards are to be believed.
He's Canadian, just for the record. Sorry, you're not perfect after all, Canada.
Late on Wednesday night, Reddit posed two simple questions to users:
Do you have a celebrity look-a-like? If so, can you share a side-by-side comparison?
Forbes magazine has released its annual list of the top-earning actors in Hollywood, and you may find yourself astonished not only by the stars who took the top two spots, but also by the staggering amount some A-listers pulled in this past year.
Amazingly, the highest paid actor of 2013 has managed to do it again, as Robert Downey, Jr. took home a cool $75 million thanks to his ongoing role as Tony Stark/Iron Man.

Happy New Year!
Valentine's Day is definitely all about living "the sweet life." With that in mind, Alima Pure has created La Dolce Vita - four seasonal eyeshadow colors to bring a little extra sweetness to your look, all without one extra calorie or fat gram.
Cupcake is a sweet, shimmery pink, as light and frothy as it's namesake.
Petit Four is a sparkling beige with sparks of gold, as irresistible as the little cakes of the same name.
Tiramisu is a much-loved shade making a return appearance. If you were lucky enough to receive last year's "Alima Signature Colors" stack of three shades, you have seen Tiramisu before. A shimmery, light-to-medium brown, Tiramisu will surely be a go-to color for many.
Mousse is named for dark chocolate mousse; deep enough to satisfy but not so heavy as to overwhelm. Our Mousse features a lovely golden shimmer.
As an added bonus, you will receive a deluxe sample of Meringue, a sparkling white.
La Dolce Vita "Sweet" look
Apply Cupcake from lashes to brow. Sweep Tiramisu into the crease, blending well. Apply Petit Four under lower lashes, from the outer corner and stopping about 2/3 of the way in. With a damp brush, line the upper lid with Mousse.
Use a matte pink blush like Pink or Raspberry on the apples of the cheek and apply a tiny bit of Cupcake shadow on the tops of cheekbones.
Finish with a pink balm like Acai or Rhubarb.
La Dolce Vita "Sultry" look
Apply Meringue from crease to brow, and Petit Four from lashes to crease. Use Mousse as a liner on top and bottom lashes, smudging well. Place Tiramisu directly above Mousse on the upper lid, blending it upwards toward the crease. Add a bit of Mousse to the outer corner and crease, blending well.
Apply a soft, earthy blush like Carnation to apples of cheeks and blend back towards ear.
Use a deeper lip balm like Cranberry, and apply liberally, then gently blot to leave a soft stain.
We're delighted to have you join the conversation about natural beauty, healthy living, cosmetic safety, and whatever cool, fun topics happen to strike our fancy. We'll be testing skincare products, doing mineral makeup makeovers, chatting with practitioners and cosmetic chemists about the latest, greatest (and not so great) developments in the field, and even submitting ourselves to strenuous spa evaluations. We're passionate about green beauty, and look forward to your thoughts and ideas on the topic. Pour yourself a cup of tea, and make yourself at home. We look forward to hearing from you!

Taos HotelsWhen you arrive in the colorful, arid town of Taos it can sometimes be hard to believe that you're close to so many popular ski resorts. However, in the winter months the lush green mountains are covered with thick powdery snow, making them perfect for skiers and snowboarders, and people flock to this unassuming New Mexico town to enjoy friendly hospitality and socialize with other enthusiasts. It's a great alternative to overpriced and pretentious ski resorts, and even in the summer months there's plenty to explore in this unique landscape. Things to seeTaos Ski Valley is a friendly ski resort suitable for beginners, as well as those who are serious about their hobby, and from December to April you can enjoy several runs down white powdered slopes before taking a dip in the steamy springs. Red River Ski Area is also a popular spot for ski enthusiasts, and when the snow melts in the summer months it gives way to lush green mountainsides for hiking and exploring. Back in town visit the Taos Plaza for a taste of historic New Mexico. Here you'll find charming boutique shops and art galleries housed in sandy colored buildings, and there are often buskers and bands playing in amongst the tree-lined streets. A day at the modern Angel Fire Country Club is great for golf enthusiasts, with a challenging and well-maintained course, as well as tennis courts, and a mountain area with ziplines, biking trails, and chairlift rides. Hotels in TaosMany Taos hotels have a typical desert style with rustic stone walls and wildflowers decorating the gardens. Most of the hotels in Taos offer 2 to 4 star accommodation, and at the higher end you'll find hotels that are popular with skiers and have facilities such as spas, indoor pools, ski storage, fitness centers, bars, and lounges. After a hard day on the slopes you can retire to your room and relax with amenities such as fire places, balconies, pillowtop mattresses and luxury bedding, flat-screen televisions, and WiFi. If you're traveling with family then some resorts have babysitting services, as well as rollaway beds available on request. Where to stayTaos Ski Valley is a popular destination in the winter months, with cozy ski resorts nestled in the mountains, and impressive views of the snow covered peaks. Nature lovers also visit the area when the snow has melted and enjoy miles of lush, unspoiled woodland, with clear blue lakes sitting alongside the hiking trails. In the shadow of the Taos mountains lies the charming village of Arroyo Seco which is strongly influenced by Native American culture. Here you can buy crafts and artwork from small boutiques lined along the road, and can enjoy the peaceful, small town vibe. Sipapu is a smaller ski resort to the south of Taos which manages to squeeze in trails for all abilities. Visit during the summer months and you can climb the sandy rocks and hike through this breathtaking area. How to get to TaosAlbuquerque International Sunport is just over 2 hours away from Taos, and the airport hosts regular domestic arrivals; mostly from Texas, Arizona, and California. You can pick up a rental car at the airport, and there's a year round shuttle bus for the ski resorts which can be booked online in advance. You can also take a bus from the airport to the New Mexico Rail Runner which will take you from Albuquerque to Santa Fe, and then take local buses to Taos. Be sure to check the times online as they vary from season to season according to demand.

Helly everyone, I have a question.
I just turned 16 years old, and my top at benchpress is about 265 pounds. I want to know if that is a lot for my age.

I Am The Game, And I Am That Damn Good!
no, i just came here to ask a question.
I Am The Game, And I Am That Damn Good!
Yeah, it's pretty good, but there's a hell of a lot more to lifting than "benching".
"****, if you told teenagers it was trendy to wear a paper bag on their heads with holes for the eyes they'd all be doing it."
It depends on your weight. There is a guy at my gym who weights 390 LBS. When he is benching 3 plates that is 75 LBS less than his body weight.
You are not your job.
You are not how much you have in the bank.
You are not the contents of your wallet.
You are not your ****ing Khakis.
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world."
~Tyler Durden~ Fight Club
See my WBB #1 Journal and pictures of my progress Here
Yeah, depends on your weight and bodyfat and stuff. Most I ever put up when I was 16 was 280, but that was when I weighed 196.
"As far as drugs were concerned, all my bodybuilding heroes were on everything but roller skates."
In Memphis, it is illegal for a woman to drive by herself, unless a man is walking or running infront of the vehicle, waving a red flag in order to warn approaching pedestrians and motorists.
HHH, i was just kidding...thats pretty good
I could lift about 15% more on almost everything when I was 17 compared to now... HS football is a great way to get beefy. Problem was... I was fat too But considering I weigh 155 now, and I was 180 then (faaaaat) that 15% doesn't sound so bad...

Fears about the end of AvX and marvel NOW.
By Crimsonlord53 12 Comments
My first fear AvX is a massive retcon of the phoenix story and hope may end up replacing jean in the marvel mythos.
Next wanda marvel just may have her take on the phoenix force as penance for her actions.
Just a feeling but I have been thinking marvel/disney are blending the X men and Avengers line ups in an attempt to stop sony from making more movies.
The O5 x men coming to the current time line how dose it affect them if when they return to there proper place.

Daloz 80-member CSA seeks farming interns for March through November 2008!
Farming interns work with the CSA manager on all aspects of the certified organic farming operation including seed starting, care of seedlings, transplanting, field prep, weeding, irrigation, harvest, and coordination of the two CSA pickup days.
The purpose of the internship program is to give new and aspiring farmers a clear understanding of the daily life of a New Hampshire CSA during the growing season. The work ranges from invigorating and life changing, to physically challenging and tedious depending on the attitude of the intern. At Daloz CSA we are committed to educating ourselves and others on the value of local farms and building the skills necessary to nurture the earth while producing a substantial quantity of fresh whole foods for our community. We also place high value on the people that work on our farm, in the belief that our relations with each other are a reflection of the way that we care for our community and the land.
Interns work a rigorous five to six day work week in exchange for produce and an educational experience. Although the work schedule is flexible, the work itself is undeniably challenging. Daloz CSA is willing to work with you to get academic credit for your internship. In addition to learning organic food production through hands-on experience in four acre market garden, interns also go on field trips to other farms and participate in weekly meetings focusing on specific elements of farming and tasks for the week ahead. Rustic housing options are available onsite at the farm. Cooking and cleaning responsibilities are shared by all residential members of the farm crew. We also offer a stipend for interns that commit to the farm for the eight month growing season – March or April 1 through November 1. Shorter term interns are welcome to apply but not eligible for stipend.
Previous farming experience is useful but not necessary. Willingness to commit to the entire growing season, interest in Permaculture, ecological design and creating a sustainable future highly valued. Interns are expected to engage in physical labor on a daily basis.
To apply, visit our website at www.dalozcsa.org or call Abby at 603.831.1972.

ŌĆó You need to collect a certain sum of money for retirement. Possibly you want to retire earlier than it is established so it is better to start saving money now.
ŌĆó There is a sound idea to put some money aside into the emergency fund.
ŌĆó If you are saving half of your income you may use its part to celebrate a holiday or to afford a trip around the world.
ŌĆó You may have an opportunity to leave your job but make sure that you have saved enough money at first.
ŌĆó You may plan beginning a family and there is need to get into a good saving habit now.

Whether you've just graduated high school and you're getting ready to enter college or you're a working adult looking to improve your education, getting info on education loans is important.

Online Loans ŌĆō Their Benefits and the Reasons for Their Ever Increasing Popularity
Consumers who have experienced economic downturns have seen that these economic fluctuations are directly reflected in their credit score and over time taking a traditional loan from a bank have become a cumbersome and time consuming process involving too many forms to be filled and long sessions of discussions to be held with the loan officer.

The fax less service of online loans provides answers to your queries and applications well within a day. The application process only takes a few minutes and is conveniently carried out.

A Detailed Analysis of the Key Aspects of Online Money Transfer
It is certainly an undeniable fact that online money transfer has made our lives simpler to a great extent. Since the time online money transfer emerged into the scene, it put an end to the use of cheques, and there was a no more a requirement to send those in other parts of the world by using couriers and postal services. On the other hand, people were enabled to make transfer of money online on a global basis directly from the personal bank accounts. What made it more advantageous is the fact that there was no need for the individuals to pay a visit to the bank in order to make the transfer.

Key Points
Many species of capsids appear on fruit crops, but the majority of these are beneficial as they prey on common pests such as Spider mites, Apple suckers and Leafhoppers. An occasional pest of apple crops is the Apple capsid — Plesiocoris rugicollis — but this rarely occurs at damaging levels in well-managed apple orchards. Of greater significance to UK fruit growers is the Common Green capsid — Lygocoris pabulinus — which is a common pest of cane and bush fruit crops. It can also colonise strawberry plants and, to a lesser extent, apple, pear and other tree fruits.
For both Apple capsid and Common Green capsid, the appearance of small brown spots, the result of a feeding puncture, are the first sign of attack. These are normally found on new, young leaves but shoot tips, flower buds and fruitlets will also be attacked. Injury to apple trees can be caused by either species but the Common Green capsid is more normally responsible for damage to all other susceptible fruit plants.
Damage from a feeding puncture leads to growth of deformed leaves, production of an excessive number of secondary shoots and fruits with irregular cork-like areas. In severe attacks fruits can become badly misshapen with little or no marketable value. Attacks on strawberry crops by the first generation of the Common Green capsid causes malformed fruits similar to those resulting from poor pollination.
Both species are bright green in colour and nymphs can only be distinguished from adults by their slightly smaller size and absence of wings. Mature adults grow to approximately 5mm and carry pale green wings with translucent tips. All growth stages are very active when disturbed, moving quickly around the leaf or taking flight in the case of adults.
Apple Capsid (Plesiocoris rugicollis)
The Apple capsid produces only one generation each year. Eggs are laid in crevices in the plant's bark and hatch between mid-April, the green cluster stage, and early May. Young capsids feed on rosette leaves, causing the brown feeding marks, then move on to developing fruitlets and any new foliage. Adults live for 4 – 6 weeks around late May and mid-June, dying once eggs have been laid during late June and in to July. Apple capsids can also attack redcurrants, blackcurrants and gooseberries.
Common Green Capsid (Lygocoris pabulinus)
Unlike Apple capsid, the Common Green capsid has two generations each year. Eggs overwinter in bark crevices and hatch after mid-April through to mid-May, slightly later than for the Apple capsid. Around 50% of eggs have normally hatched by the beginning of the blossom period and hatching is complete by petal fall. The young shoot tips of cane and bush fruits are particularly susceptible to feeding by nymphs with rosette leaves, and then young shoots and fruitlets, attacked on apple and pear trees.
Infestation of fruit crops generally ends when adults of the first generation appear in June. A second generation is produced where these adults lay eggs on cane fruit crops. These eggs hatch after about two weeks. Other adults migrate to a wide range of other host plants where they lay eggs that give rise to a second generation of adults from mid-August onwards. These adults return to fruit trees and bushes to lay eggs that then overwinter.
Product Choice
Applications of Lorsban* WG (active ingredient chlorpyrifos) at the green cluster stage, i.e. the timing used for control of aphids and caterpillars, will control infestations of Capsids. Do not apply to crops in flower or to those in which bees are actively foraging. Do not make applications when flowering weeds are present.

Thoughts about setup and deployment issues, WiX, XNA, the .NET Framework and Visual Studio
All postings are provided AS IS
with no warranties, and confer no rights. Additionally, views expressed
herein are my own and not those of my employer, Microsoft.
A couple of folks have contacted me and mentioned that they have had trouble using the TweakMCE power toy after installing Update Rollup 2 for MCE 2005. I remembered that Matt Goyer had posted an item about TweakMCE a few weeks ago indicating that there will be a new version that will be available shortly after Update Rollup 2 itself is released. I looked around a bit and couldn't find an updated version that we've posted to the web yet, so I took a look at the version that is currently available on the web. The setup package is an MSI and it is not checking for a specific version of Media Center before letting you install (it only verifies that the OS is running Media Center, but doesn't care which version). However, there is a check that happens at runtime that will block TweakMCE from running unless specific versions of Media Center are installed (specifically - Media Center 2005 or Media Center 2005 with Update Rollup 1).
If you would like to use the currently available version of TweakMCE on a computer with Update Rollup 2 installed, you can use this temporary workaround to get past the runtime check (note you will need to have write permissions to HKLM for this workaround to work, meaning you will need to at least have power user privileges on your computer with the currently logged in user):
Of course, I encourage you to keep an eye out and download and install the updated version of TweakMCE when it is available instead of using this workaround in the future. There are some settings that will be added to the new version of TweakMCE to modify new MCE settings that have been added in Update Rollup 2.
Please let me know if you run into any issues getting this workaround to work for you....

That is infact true. In this case I would go for the iPad though since I know even the non tech savvy people just use it easily. But expanding it like Apple TV etc. is needed. Isn't there a lightning to HDMI or video out?
One problem with that is it's twice the price of the other two, more functionality for sure but very difficult to justify for a £1000. A cheaper option than buying the Dell convertible would be to buy both the iPad and the Nexus 10 and see which she likes better and there'd be £150+ left over.

There you go. One more advantage is that if you go for the iPad and she goes iOS everything will be in sync via icloud. No need to buy the same app twice from different markets or anything. And if she buys the Apple TV she can stream wireless from the iPad & iPhone.
Just read my post, previous page.

A small description here will not suffice in...
A small description here will not suffice in telling you who I really am or what I'm all about. You'll have to get to know me to really find out. In short, if I were to use some adjectives to describe myself to you, they would be: mature, thoughtful, loyal, caring, educated, ambitious, hard-working, and disciplined. Plus, I consider myself to be a great listener. I'm the type of person who gets along with everybody and is easy to communicate with. I treat with respect and expect the same in return. I'm passionate about all things related to motorsport and love anything and everything that goes fast. In my spare time, I enjoy getting out to the track and racing, spending time with my family, listening to music, and learning new things. In my day to day life, I'm very busy and I'm in no rush to meet someone in a hurry. Good things come in time and great, meaningful relationships take time to grow, so I'd hope if you are interested in getting to know me, that you share my sentiments. I'm not crazy about online dating and don't hold much hope that I can find that special woman here. However, nothing ventured, nothing gained so here I am giving this a try. I've lived a very unconventional life that has helped shape me into the man I am today. As a result, I don't think and operate in the usual ways. It will take a special woman to notice that in me and that's the type of woman I hope to meet. You can message me if you read my profile and felt that I'm someone you'd like to know as a friend or more. I'd love to hear from you if some of the things written below describe you. - You're someone with a kind heart. - You're sensitive. - You're in touch with your feelings and express them well. - You're communicative. - You value yourself. - You're not vain and possess the ability to converse about different life topics. - You notice and appreciate the good qualities in people. - You're an independent thinker.

Ubuntu 13.04 To Axe The Wubi Windows Installer
new posts
I just don't understand why people are hating on Windows 8 so much. Using it on a Surface was great, except when the limitations of the RT version kicked in. Sold it off and imported a Surface Pro from the US and everything is now gravy. There's no way I will want to install Linux on this tablet (even though SB can be easily disabled to do so) after having played with it for some time.
And yes, Microsoft's products are addicting. Very addicting, i might add, to the point where I seem to have divided my computing time on my desktop and notebooks to 50% Windows 8 and 50% Fedora. Office 2013, SQL Server and Visual Studio alone are almost enough to send me completely back over to Windows land.
Not to mention that Windows Phone 8 plays so much better on Windows 8 than Android does on a Linux system...and this is speaking from personal experience with 2 such smartphones.
You have to watch a 45minute youtube video form some users to be able to use this os.
As a good example how bad this os is, is where the shutdown button is. you have to switch from the right site out a secret bar, you have to randomly find, by guessing wild around gestures... and then go under settings to find under settings the shutdown button. Thats just retarded.
You can argue you dont need shutdown often and it was under gnome bad too, but even in the 1-2 minor releases of gnome where shutdown was hidden, you could always logout and then shutdown.
Then there is another thing, even on the tablet you have several problems, the desktop mode is still there? WHY? if the "normal" mode is ok why giving a normal desktop mode, and if you do that, so if your new thing isnt good enough to fully replace the old desktop, why is there no start button or something similar on this desktop?
So but ok even in tablet mode this os is bad, or at least unintuitiv, yes there is a difference between intuitive and good, you could even say that you think windows is good, but still is not intuitive.
I dont agree to that, but it would be possible.
As example I make me use emacs since a while and its totaly unintuitive (maybe also microsofts fault that I find it not intuitive because its just other scheme than I am used to...) but its good. So I did in my last post say primary that its not intuitive, thats not the same.
So you did blame me for saying that windows 8 is bad while I did never say that (in last post).
So but to get back to my previous point, even with a tablet its a very strange experince and not very intuitive, but on a tablet windows 8 is still way better than if you want to use it on a normal non-touch pc. So for that its just stupid, to make the gestures with the mouse is just bad, now I say it that its really bad, at least with non-touch devices.
you can look it up on youtube the channel name is osfirsttimer they testet like 20 systems macosxes, ios, different linuxes, windows 2000/older ones even dos and so on, even she never used linux before and really loves her windows xp, on the 3 worst oses she put 3 windows oses, and I think one of it was windows 8. And no that was no linux-geek. A mother that wants to update to windows vista or windows 7 then.
You compare it now with android, maybe android on tablets arent that good too, have no one, I just did compare it to the ios-tablet.
And to compare it to android, at least with a mouse you can easily control it, there are no real hidden menus, maybe the dropdown-thing but you can get to all whats in there also by the normal application menu which is a icon for, and that is not hidden.
You need maybe some time to find fast every thing in the application structure, but you dont have to know many secret gestures, maybe for closing a window you need that, but thats not very importent because you dont need to close stuff.
And another difference is that, android is basicly for free, I installed a cost-free version of android 4.1 on my old defy handy (cyagenmod) and installed a adblock tool. so comparing something that costs 0 dollars and something they want money for is also not fair, but still android win at least slightly.
Originally posted by who_me View PostThere is no reason in this day and age to use WUBI. I used something like it way, way back. It was called WinLinux.

If you are the one that is helping friends and family install Ubuntu, than do it properly for God's sake.
And sorry but "powerful computers" cost something, some people are poor or too young to have their own money.
I'm not saying wubi is perfect, I'm just saying that the reality is that some people were very happy with wubi and it was their first step in linux world.
[QUOTE=ruinairas;323079]Well, there goes my method of showing people Ubuntu. People feel more comfortable using WUBI than using a real partition. I dunno why, it's just that way. I can't wait to explain to some of my friends why I can't install 13.04 on their computer using WUBI now. >.>
Well one thing was it was far slower than the normal livecd or normal install.
So it may have put people off looking more into the OS.
One person at work mentioned how slow ubuntu was compared to Windows, it was only after about 15 minutes into the conversation I worked out he was using wubi.
For the record, during the period of time I was on Ubuntu the Wubi installer never ever seemed to work; it just end up hanging at the installation process. That was during the XP and Vista days. Maybe it has improved vastly today, i don't know.
Anyway, no real loss. People should learn how to install an operating system onto bare metal using a proper OS installer and not through a workaround such as Wubi.

Indeed. You have to manually install Windows as well, after all, and the difference between the Windows and Ubuntu installers aren't that huge.
Originally posted by peppercats View PostNo they shouldn't. Linux isn't some secret "h4ckers 0nly" club, it should be available to everyone as easily as possible.

Picture: Sandra Bullock, Best Actress in a Leading Role The 82nd Annual Academy Awards (Oscars) - Press Room at the Kodak Theatre Hollywood, California - 07.03.10
The tattooed model behind Sandra Bullock's marriage split has always been obsessed with the actress' husband, according to her ex.
Michelle MCGee has gone public with claims she romanced TV action man Jesse James while Bullock was on location shooting The Blind Side, prompting the actress to walk out on her husband.
And now MCGee's ex, Shane Modica, has spoken out for the first time about his former wife's attraction to all things Jesse James.
He tells U.S. TV news show The Insider, "We had problems during our marriage because of (her obsession).
"Our picture is sitting there taped on her mirror, and I looked at it and kind of double-taked (looked again) and noticed there was something over my face and I looked closer, and it's a picture of Jesse James, his head cut out (and) pasted over my face.
"I was like, 'Really, are you serious?' And she laughed it off thinking it was funny and said, 'It's not a big deal, (I) was just doing it as a joke - he's fat, he's ugly, he doesn't have any real tattoos, he's old, and all that stuff."
But Modica admits he wasn't surprised when his ex told him that she and James were quietly dating last year (09), claiming MCGee often referred to James' marriage to Bullock as a "sham".
He adds, "According to her, (Sandra and Jesse) had this big thing going on where they were going to announce their divorce on a certain timeline and she was going to be the next woman... She was going to make money off this one way or another."
Since the scandal broke last week (ends19Mar10), Modica, who runs a tattoo parlour in San Diego, California, has filed legal papers seeking temporary and legal custody of his five-year-old son Avery with MCGee.
Modica filed his latest motion in San Diego, California on Friday (19Mar10) as a direct result of the tabloid scandal.
In his legal papers, Modica said, "I need protection for my son. If she sees Avery, she will bring these curiosity seekers and glory hounds down on herself and Avery, totally confusing and frankly scaring him."

Originally written on Fox Sports Detroit | Last updated 3/4/12
LAKELAND, Fla. (AP) Atlanta pitcher Julio Teheran was tagged for six home runs in just two innings and the Detroit Tigers connected nine times overall Sunday in romping past the Braves 18-3. Prince Fielder homered his time up. Tigers teammate Ryan Raburn hit two home runs, including a grand slam. With a strong wind blowing out to right field, the Tigers teed off against Teheran. Competing for a spot in the Braves' rotation, he allowed a total of six hits, all of them home runs. The post-1900 record for homers allowed in a major league regular season game, by the way, is six. That's happened eight times, most recently by Tampa Bay's James Shields in 2010 against Toronto, STATS LLC said. Tim Wakefield and R.A. Dickey also are on the list. Max Scherzer made his spring debut for the Tigers and allowed three hits in two scoreless innings. Closer Jose Valverde pitched a shutout inning.

Her hypotheses came from her discovery of a mutation in a dwarf Arabidopsis plant, a common model species used in scientific research. The mutant plant produces about 50 percent less cellulose than normal plants, causing the plant to be smaller and unable to reach maturity in the wild. Schrick went on to discover that mutations in several enzymes, required for the biosynthesis of sterols, affect the amount of cellulose produced.
"The sterol biosynthesis mutants have shown us that sterols are critical for cellulose synthesis, but we still don't understand why. We are using the latest tools to solve the problem at the molecular level, which will potentially lead to advances in the development of biofuels," she said.
Schrick is collaborating with several scientists nationally and internationally. Among them are Seth DeBolt at the University of Kentucky, a co-principle investigator on the grant, and Vincent Bulone at the Division of Glycosciences in the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden.
Bulone was one of the first scientists to efficiently synthesize cellulose outside of the cell by gathering all the necessary components needed to build cellulose fibers in a test tube. The level of cellulose synthase activity achieved in Bulone's lab represents the highest proportion of cellulose reported from in vitro synthesis to date, Schrick said.

|Eighth-grader Molly Callahan staffs a fund-raising booth at Carlisle's transfer station. (Wendy Maeda/Globe Staff)
Family trip to Guatemala inspires students to act
A year ago, Sandy and Peter Nash were busy packing up their Carlisle household.
Shortly after Christmas, they began an eight-month stay in the central highlands region of Guatemala, achieving a longtime dream to immerse their children — Whitney, then 10, and Gardner, then 13 — in a culture dramatically different from their own.
The children attended school, but they also joined their parents in providing local aid wherever they could. The Nashes helped build a house for a family of eight, participated in food distribution for a local charity, and helped care for malnourished children at a residential treatment center.
Sandy Nash says that when the time came to return home, she expected they all would have had their fill of Central America. But Gardner, now an eighth-grader at the Carlisle Public School, had other ideas.
Gardner recruited five classmates — two other boys and three girls — for a service trip to Guatemala, with February school vacation in mind.
Their parents told them they would need to pay their own passage, and also raise money for the charities they would be working with once they arrive.
The youths wrote a fund-raising letter, sold coffee to residents at their town's transfer station to bring visibility to their undertaking, and made it clear to their families that they wanted donations toward the trip in place of any birthday, Christmas, or Hanukkah gifts.
They're almost all the way to their financial goal, and they're preparing for their trip. They'll be joined by the rest of the Nash family and another parent.
On the agenda for the 10-day trip is a visit to the God's Child Project, a center that cares for and educates impoverished children and mothers; a day helping with food distribution at a shelter for homeless families; collection and distribution of water-purifying filters for area villagers; and a day playing with babies and children at the same treatment center where the Nashes had volunteered during their previous stay.
Of course, Sandy Nash said, she realizes that young teens who travel that far for a charitable mission deserve to have some fun as well. Most of the trip, however, will be dedicated to working and learning. They'll visit rural villages, travel to the Pacaya volcano to witness the damage it wrought during last spring's eruption, do the March to the Cross in Antigua, and explore an ancient Mayan city.
Thirteen-year-old Lindsay Ryder said she can hardly wait for departure day.
"When Gardner got back from living there, he told us about how 95 percent of the water in the villages is contaminated,'' she said recently. "I found it very upsetting to think that we have clean water whenever we want it and they don't.
"He also told us about a volcano that erupted while they were there and how much damage it did to the nearby villages. I'm so glad there's a way for us to go there and help.''

Findings for PPC in Gulfport
Gulfport Ranks Amongst Least Expensive Markets for Google Adwords in USA
SEP's ongoing research into PPC Campaigns has revealed that Gulfport was the 278th least expensive city in USA in keyword bids in Google Adwords for the month of April 2015. Gulfport also ranks amongst the least expensive cities in Mississippi, ranking as number 1st. In the study, San Buenaventura ranked as the most expensive city in the country, while Manchester ranked as the least expensive city.
Google Adwords Keyword Prices 73% Lower in Gulfport than New Orleans
SEP's research also tracks Google Adwords price changes and trends in cities across Canada and the U.S. Recent data shows that average prices in Gulfport are 73% lower than in New Orleans. The average price of a click in Gulfport is $4.39.
This price differential is expected however, as New Orleans has a larger population than Gulfport.
For better comparison of prices, we also compared prices with another city with a similar population, Wilmington, and found the average price of a click in Gulfport was 59% lower than in Wilmington.
The Price Rank shows how expensive keywords are in certain industry and segment relative to other cities in a country, region and province.

I can't dismiss the fact that maybe there is some underground shifting/breakage going on prior to an upcoming event with the New Madrid in the near future.

Whether or not you were actually predicting anything, I certainly agree with you. Something is NOT right.
1. We've seen a rapid increase in temperature, as in instant summer. .
2. Massive global die-offs continue.
3.Inexplicable rumblings and noises heard all over the world. (Some are fake, but a lot are not)
4. Very odd weather and weather patterns continue to amaze me.
5. Do you really need any more evidence?
I was doubtful about these odd trumpet/grinding noises being heard in the sky until recently, here in Alpena, MI, my girlfriend and I heard them. At first, since we live on the lake and near a factory, that it was a boat coming in or maybe noise from the factory. Then, it continued to grow louder and louder with several reporting the same odd noise. I got out the camera to record the noise, but was a second too late to catch it on film.
I'm no doomtard, and I know a lot of other people who are preparing for an incoming disaster on a massive scale who, like me, only look at the facts. Something big is going to happen this year and not because it is 2012, but because all the evidence is indicating the same thing.
Stay safe and educated people!
