NEW YORK (AP) -- A new online programming venture bankrolled by the world's richest man will launch with the return of a veteran television personality -- Larry King.
King will start up a new daily talk show later this year for Ora.TV. The new service, backed by Mexican communications billionaire Carlos Slim, will provide programming for tablets, cellphones, computers and Internet-connected TVs.
King hosted a nightly interview program on CNN for 25 years. He retired in 2010.
Ora.TV is being run by Jon Housman, most recently president of digital journalism for News Corp.
No date has been set for when Ora.TV will become available. The company says it has other programs besides King's in development, but wouldn't discuss them on Monday.

I have listed below the guidelines our office uses when processing early arrival requests. Please review them as you begin to plan.
We encourage you to provide meal arrangements for any employees you are bringing back early. If your department wishes to make meal plan arrangements, please contact the Office of Conference and Event Services.

Vintage winter boots and more from Candy Says
I've been griping all year about how difficult it is to find a pair of boots on the high street that doesn't look like an '80s nightmare. On my endless trawl for a pair of well made, plain leather boots it fell typically to vintage finds to fill the gap.
Candy Says has a number of pairs of ace '70s vintage boots. In leather, and generally left for craftsmanship to show off, instead of trinkets and slouch details, they're endlessly versatile.
This pair of brown leather heeled boots are retailing at a very reasonable £48. The online shop also sells a variety of vintage clothes at affordable prices.

A graphic designer by training, videographer 'Brusspup' got into the illusion business three years ago, bringing his technical know-how to bear on a lifelong fascination.
"I love the challenge of trying to come up with a new twist on each illusion," he told Yahoo! Games -- and his latest effort does just that by giving a classic perspective trick some new flavor.
Not unlike sidewalk art, the illusion is anamorphic -- it's drawn in a distorted way so that, from a specific perspective, it looks like a normal object. But because this illusion has been captured on video, you can see the object take shape in real-time. It's pretty awesome when it all comes together:
"There is only one 'perfect' angle that the object can be viewed from," Brusspup notes. "The design is essentially created from that original angle. To have more of a dramatic effect, I try to have the design fall on lot of angles and horizontal surfaces like floors and ceilings."
For more of Brusspup's video illusions, check out his Youtube channel.

The Wild Hills of Gray. Ouch.
Yesterday, in attempts to visit a clam shack in Freeport, I, the designated navigator, took a wrong turn. It started in Brunswick, Maine, just after we'd finished a great meal at the Fat Boy Drive-In. We were head up northwest, then slightly south, of Freeport, which was only about 20 miles away. 3 hours later, we were huffing and puffing up the 50th steep hill we'd encountered - the hilliest part of our journey yet. Along the way, Dan made a makeshift iPhone holster on his handlebars so he could record some shots riding up and down the hills. We finally arrived to the location of the dropped pin on my Google Map - 174 Yarmouth Road in GRAY, Maine (not Freeport). Instead of kicking over my bicycle in a tantrum, I winced and came to terms with the fact that we wouldn't be visiting the clam shack until the next day. Dan and I slowly pedaled our way to Freeport for the night. Although sore, we made it to Cindy's Chowder House today, and we are all smiles now!!

The Air Force Academy says reports of sexual assault aren't confidential, and experts say that will discourage victims from coming forward.
The Denver Post obtained an internal academy memo that says therapists are now required to report a sexual assault, while diagnosis and treatment information is still generally confidential.
In the past, cadets received some confidentiality via hot line phone calls to fellow cadets working with the academy's counseling center.
Directors of a Colorado Springs rape crisis center say the
policy is a tragedy.
The academy is under scrutiny after dozens of female cadets said they were reprimanded or ostracized for reporting sexual assaults.
The top officers have been reassigned and the academy is facing four investigations

Reviews by llevity
What it lacks in polish, it makes up for in charmllevity | Dec. 20, 2013 | Review of LEGO Marvel Superheroes NA - PC
There are still some polish issues, and bugs, but this game more than makes up for it with its charm. The now standard brand of lego game humor is here in droves, the game play is fun and varied, and there's tons to do! Aside from the normal story levels, there's a large over world to explore and do random things to unlock new characters, vehicles, or find more golden bricks. The occasional bug might make you get stuck in the scenery, but it's fairly rare, and the charm makes up for it.

A recent piece on ABCNews.com caught our attention because it strikes a nerve with students, teachers, parents, and administrators. In recent months, BoardBuzz has spent a lot of time and attention on social networking sites and the value they provide to education in the 21st century. Therefore, you can understand how a story titled "Have Boozy Photos on Facebook?" would cause some consternation.
A group of 42 students in a Minnesota high school were questioned and 13 had a disciplinary action taken against them when they left school to protest the questioning by administrators. Photos of students with alcohol were posted on Facebook and since students are required to sign a pledge to be involved in extracurricular activities, and they broke this pledge, they were punished.
What seems like a routine disciplinary action has touched different people in different ways. Parents and students say that this is just average high school behavior. Some students claim everyone drinks in high school, so the school should stay out of their business. It's no secret that Hollywood glorifies high school drinking in movies like Fast Times at Ridgemont High, Dazed and Confused, and Clueless, but does that make it okay? Is it the job of the administration to look at Facebook regularly and be the Internet police for the students in their school? It's still unclear how the administration found out about the photos in the first place. Or is it a matter of free speech since the photos were taken off school property and parents should be aware of what their children are posting on Facebook and they should handle discipling their children for underage drinking? Perhaps the parents should follow the example of the "meanest mom in the world."
Need help getting through the muddled mess of social networking? Check out our discussion on the educational benefits of social networking. Believe it or not (after reading a story like this), there are some!

Lips as Red as a Rose
Gwyneth Paltrow once said, "Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick."
Red lipstick, often dubbed "beauty's little black dress" is a quintessential component to any makeup bag. Janice Lam, a Hong Kong makeup artist and founder of the Janice Lam Makeup Workshop, gives us tips on the best ways to paint it red.
1. Vaseline: Use this beauty pageant secret and smear some Vaseline on your front teeth to keep your lipstick from staining your teeth.
2. Line it: Red lipsticks bleed – meaning the color smudges easily — so a lip liner is highly recommended. Be sure to fill in the liner over the entire lip to avoid the "clown" effect when just the outer rim of the lip is lined.
3. Know your skin tone: Women with pale skin tones should opt for reds with blue or purple undertones. Those with medium-hued skin tones fare better with brown or tawny-based reds. And darker skin tones match best with bright pinkish, fuchsia or orange-based reds that pop.
4. Matte vs. glossy: "Matte reds are more elegant and stylish, while a slick glossy red lip is the epitome of sexiness," says Ms. Lam.
5. Double duty: Red lipsticks make for a perfect blush substitute when dabbed softly over cheeks (and blended in well).
6. Keep it natural: A red lip draws a lot of attention, so keep the other areas of your face natural looking. Skip the eyeliner and use just mascara, for example. But dust on some soft blush, otherwise you may risk looking washed-out.
7. Blot: Blot your lips once with tissue and then reapply a second layer to make sure the color lasts throughout the day.
Try on these red shades…

Leisure Travel
Besides being recognized as one of the world's top "fashion" travel destinations, Miami is just as much a mecca for fun seekers as well as for those seeking a place of refuge and tranquility.
Known for its sophisticated, diverse ambience, this trend-setting city offers just about everyone an opportunity to thrive, enjoy or kick back. An event-filled town with a bustling nightlife, exquisite cuisine, world-class shopping and cultural events, Miami is one of the most popular hot spots in the world.
The world-renowned Cardozo Hotel offers you pampered comfort and exquisite cuisine, right in the heart of Ocean Drive, Miami Beach's legendary thoroughfare. Our historic Art Deco building is a distinctive oceanfront landmark just steps away from famed designer Versace's mansion. Just blocks ways, you can visit famous Lincoln Road, a pedestrian paradise for families, friends, and pets filled with art galleries, restaurants, live music, and entertainment.
Miami's unique vibe is flavored by its exotic scenery and diverse mix of people. It's a place where the melting pot of cultures welcomes travelers from all over the globe. However, amidst the excitement and bustle, you can also find quieter ways to create memories exploring lighthouses from Florida's pioneer days, visiting Italian Renaissance villas by Biscayne Bay or simply enjoying the sun and surf in South Beach.

His awfully mature and classy response was "bitch u got me fucked up"
I attempted to just ignore him but he kept badgering me so I had to unleash pregnant, hormonal fury on him and I had to include that this "ho" he met at "da classics" probably gave him the wrong number because he's such a weird looking little douchebag. He ended with two texts, one saying "fuc ya" and the other saying "fuc u." Such a poet.
I can't block numbers on my iPhone without jailbreaking it or paying $5 a month (laaaame!). I am so unbelievably pissed because I haven't slept in days and now I'm completely wired because of this asshole. Eurgh. So frustratingly tired :(
Just had to, ya know, get that out haha

Sitting in a hotel room at 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning in Louisville I got my first chance to see Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan and find out what all the hype was about.
Brennan, as you may have heard, is chasing David Klingler's Division I-A record for touchdown passes in a season. He's an interesting story on many levels. He was Matt Leinart's backup in high school. He was a walk-on at Colorado before some legal issues chased him from the school, putting him on his path to Hawaii.
Until yesterday Brennan was considered to be in the running for the Heisman Trophy this year.
Could he have been chasing a Heisman Trophy in East Hartford?
It seems when the California native was doing a post graduate year at Worcester Academy UConn was the only Division I-A team that offered him a scholarship. Brennan opted to walk on at Colorado over UConn. The rest is history.
Some other reading of interest:
- The new rules didn't shorten Big East games by much: How Much Time Did Your Conference Lose.
- The fight between cable systems and the NFL Network has been an interesting one, but it seems to have taken on new proportions now that it involves college football: NFL Network Not Carried By Local Cable Providers.
- Have they found a way to keep RichRod from making 'Bama his new home?: Making A Pitch.
Here's a couple from the personal book club. Hey, it doesn't come with Oprah's seal of approval, but I do my best.
I finished John L. Smith's Running Scared recently and found it to be a pretty good read about the inside dealings of Vegas king Steve Wynn. I've just started reading Smith's Sharks In The Desert which hasn't grabbed my attention in the same way Running Scared did.
And in my rush to catch my 8:25 flight out of Bradley Friday that I wasn't even supposed to be on, I accidentally dropped Sharks out of my bag. It left me book less for the flight. On my way out of Louisville I picked up John Daly's My Life In and Out of the Rough: The Truth Behind All That Bull**** You Think You Know About Me. It was a pretty interesting read. I wouldn't call it attention grabbing, I wasn't wondering what was coming on the next page, but it was a fun read that felt like getting the inside look at a constant train wreck. I finished it thinking Daly seems like a pretty cool guy.
Oh and speaking of making a pitch, my brother is trying to convince me that I should buy myself a Nintendo Wii for Christmas. Anybody try one of these yet? I've heard good things. Not that I don't trust my brother's judgment, but he is the same person that is usually trying to convince me that I NEED to go to the casino. He also thinks that I after I fulfill this NEED in my life that I should keep it at his house because he has the bigger TV.

Mod mothers not 'mom' enoughMon, 27 Aug 2012 11:01 AM
Traditional household skills – like making pastry, baking and sewing buttons – are dying out, because modern moms are too busy to learn them.
Millions of mothers struggle with a string of skills their own moms would have carried out with ease, according to recent research.
Knitting, baking cakes, making jam and altering clothes also made the list of tasks that many moms just don't know how to do.
The study also found most modern moms wished they had the skills their own mothers had but said they didn't have the time or patience to learn them.
Nine out of 10 younger moms don't know how to starch a shirt, while more than half struggle to sew name tags in their children's clothes.
Three quarters couldn't make gravy from scratch, while nearly half couldn't rustle up a Victoria sponge.
The research was commissioned by Neff, an oven brand in the UK, as part of their Bake It Yourself campaign.
Encouraging the nation to get baking, the research was compiled following a study of 1000 moms under 35 and 1000 moms over 45.
"We know that modern moms are under different pressures today compared with 40 years ago," Sue Flowers, Brand Manager for Neff.
"As a result, many moms find it difficult to do some of the daily tasks their own moms may have done. However, our research has shown that many do want to learn how to do these things and feel as passionate as we do about ensuring skills such as baking and sewing don't die out.
"Moms from previous generations learnt how to do these everyday tasks from their moms and their moms before them.
"Despite not necessarily having the know-how, many mothers today are taking a real interest in learning traditional skills to help with their daily life or to enjoy as a hobby."
The study also found that nearly half of young moms said they made more of an effort to learn traditional 'mom' skills after their children were born.
But despite this less than one third could make pastry from scratch, less than half could sew and less than one quarter could knit.
A whopping 80 percent of younger moms said they wanted to know how to keep their shirts white and 82 percent wanted to be able to alter clothes.
Only 16 percent of young moms felt confident that they could make a fancy dress costume for their child and only 18 percent could make jam.
By comparison, more than a third of moms over 45 could make a costume while 43 percent could make jam.
Moms still rely on their own
Four out of 10 young moms still rely on their own mum to help them do things like cook a casserole and bake bread because they have never learnt how to do them.
"We all like to rely on our mom for help and advice, which is why it's such a shame that younger moms today find themselves too busy to enjoy time spent baking with their children and other traditional tasks," added Flowers.
"What's really encouraging is how so many moms want to do something about this.
"In fact, just under half of all younger moms questioned said they had either been on – or were considering – taking a cookery course to help them become a baker or cook."
More than a third were embarrassed at not being able to do typical "mom" tasks, while a fifth said they couldn't be bothered to sit down and learn a new skill and 22 percent said they just didn't have the patience.
Young moms were also more likely to try and pass off shop bought products like cakes and sauces as their own with 34 percent admitting to taking credit for something they bought.
More than two thirds said that they intended to pass the skills they did have on to their own children while more than a fifth said they considered most of the skills unnecessary in the modern age.

As soon as the robes come off of these sexy Japanese AV models, the naughty orgy could start! It's all about these girls getting a taste of each other's pussies here, as they spread each other's legs open and feast on their hairy twats. They rub each other and fill the room with moans before the guys get their chance to screw these beautiful chicks.

Restaurateur, teacher create book
BUFFALO GROVE (AP) — When Eileen Gold Kushner began working at a McDonald's 37 years ago, she was told she would never progress past making french fries and milkshakes. She always had trouble processing what she was learning, but never knew why until she was an adult.

I've had just about enough of this month. The rink is soggy. The driveway is soggy. There is dirt on the snow everywhere, and the snow is still piled deep and high. It's wet and cold and it's not pretty. Even a Steller's Jay does little to cheer things up outside.
Inside we are bored and testy. We had a Nothing Day today, one of those normally precious days where we had nothing scheduled. And nobody much enjoyed it. There was no creativity, no initiative. We sat around killing time on the computer, reading, puttering, lying on the living room floor. There was no imaginary play amongst the kids. There was no energy.
I'm just about ready for April. Enough with February already. Too bad there's still March in the way.

Hello Folks ,
I have other news .. I had seen in the Brazilian forum that UN had removed the document that speaks about the disaffiliation of the Watchtower to it .. However, what really happened was the restructuring of the web site , which caused the link to got invalid ..
Follow the official link of the document directly from the website of the UN:
And if the link get invalid again ?
Simple, do it:
- Just click in: http://www.un.org/en/search/index.shtml or http://www.un.org and click in Advanced Search
- T ype in " all words with ": Watchtower Bible and Tract Society
This will list all documents related to PROSTITUTE who maintains relations with the beast directly from UN website...
More proof of that? Impossible!
Greetings from Brazil dissent.
PS: Sorry for my bad, bad English..

Work crews are planning to stop traffic over the Bonner Bridge in both directions to conduct a routine deck scan.
The N.C. Department of Transportation says the crews will stop traffic on Monday at 9 a.m. It's expected that the deck scan will take about 30 minutes.
NCDOT will use the data gathered to determine if there have been any changes since the last scan done in March.
South of the bridge, construction is under way on the permanent, 2.1-mile bridge on Pea Island. The bridge will replace the temporary span standing where Hurricane Irene breached the highway in 2011.
Drivers can expect lane closures through mid-June during daytime hours Monday through Thursday, and until 3 p.m. on Fridays. No closures are planned on weekends to avoid impacting tourist travel.

ATP EarthDrive Review
Reviewed by: Propane
Reviewed on: August 18, 2008
Price: $23
More and more people these days are realizing that we are doing some pretty bad damage to our environment - whether it's the cars we drive, the electricity and water we use, or the emissions we release into the atmosphere. The good thing, however, is that we are realizing it, and so are major technology corporations. Intel and AMD are both producing low power CPU alternatives, motherboard manufacturers are looking to adhere to ACPI standards, and many others are taking steps toward becoming more "green."
One of these companies is ATP. They have come up with the EarthDrive, which uses a compound called PLA - Polylactic acid - which is biodegradable, and comes from fermented corn (so does beer), instead of traditional materials. The version of the EarthDrive that I will look at today is 2GB in size, and uses the "slide" method of protecting the USB connector. Hopefully in ATP's quest to go green, they kept high standards for the quality of their product, because that's exactly what we're going to find out!
Closer Look:
The ATP EarthDrive comes in a small plastic container, with information about the drive, the company, and their goals with the EarthDrive printed on the front and back. The packaging is easy to open, which is a nice change from similar packaging other devices might come in.
The top part of the drive lists the capacity and is white in color. There's also a slider along the top which, when pushed, reveals the USB connector and gives you access to the drive.
The back of the drive is all black in color, and has green ink on it, showing the company's name, the drive's name, and the EarthDrive logo.
Finally, the EarthDrive comes with a single accessory: a small clip and loop which appears to allow the drive to be put on a keychain. The string used in the loop part felt somewhat flimsy to me, however.
Let's take a look at the specs and features of the EarthDrive.
|ATP Part Numbers
|1GB to 8GB
|High Speed USB1.1 / 2.0 compliant
|LED Light Indicator
|Preloaded Software
|Drive Partitioning, Password Protection
|Data Retention
|10 years
|35.7mm +/- 0.20mm
|23.3mm +/- 0.10mm
|10.31mm +/- 0.20mm
- Designed with Recycled Material
The EarthDrive's unique housing was designed to be recyclable.
- American Forests Partnership
In partnership with the American Forests, a portion of all EarthDrive™ product sales will go towards the planting of trees.
- Waterproof for all Conditions
In addition to being one of the most durable USB drives in the world, the EarthDrive™ is also one of the most versatile. Built with ATP's SIP technology, all vital flash components are completely encapsulated allowing for shock proof, waterproof, and dust proof durability.
- Security Protection
The EarthDrive's built in security software allows for password protection of private data.
To test the EarthDrive, I will use a program called FlashMemoryToolkit to run several tests on the drive and record the results. All of the tests I am going to perform here are available in the free version of FlashMemoryToolkit, so if you have your own drive and want to see how the EarthDrive stacks up, all you have to do is go download the software.
Testing Setup:
- Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 (333x8)
- Motherboard: Gigabyte X48-DQ6 w/BIOS F7b
- Memory: Mushkin XP2 8000 Redline 2 x 2GB 5-5-5-12
- Video Card(s): Asus EN8800GT
- Power Supply: Mushkin 800w Modular Power Supply
- Hard Drive: 1 x Western Digital Caviar 500GB
- OS: Windows Vista Ultimate Edition
Comparison Drives:
Read Speed - Low Level Benchmark:
The first test is the low level read test. This will give us a speed in megabytes per second, and an X factor.
Read and Write - File Benchmark:
Durability Testing:
The ATP EarthDrive uses a manufacturing process called "System in Packaging" that, according to ATP Electronics' website, "encapsulates all exposed components and points of failure." This means that the drive should be very durable and waterproof. I'm sure you all want to know if this SIP process works, so I dunked the EarthDrive in water for about an hour. After I let the drive dry off (so I don't burn up my own USB ports), I plugged it into my laptop, and it came right up with no problems. Now, you no longer have to worry about ruining your flash drive if it goes through the washer - but you probably shouldn't put it through the wash, just to be on the safe side.
The drive comes with a trial copy of CarryItEasy, an application which can be used for the synchronization of files and email. In my testing, everything worked well, but it appears that each computer you want to use the software on, you must install it. Also, it will only work for 30 days before you need to buy it, so don't get this drive for the software, because you'll end up having to buy your own anyways.
The ATP EarthDrive is really aimed at a different crowd than most flash drives these days. Instead of shooting for the hip crowd by covering the drive in hot colors and fancy designs, it aims for the environmentally conscious crowd, which is growing very fast every day. The drive's speeds are pretty respectable, though not blazing fast; but, for most users, it will be plenty fast for all of their needs. While not the overall fastest drive in our testing, the EarthDrive did come in a strong second in the trials. Also, the SIP technology used to manufacture the EarthDrive makes it water resistant, shock resistant and dust resistant. This should impart peace of mind where you need it, especially if you spend a lot of time around water, or bounding around the mountains. For most people, this drive will do an excellent job, and let the owner know that they are doing something to help the environment. All in all, this is a pretty cool drive, but from a technical standpoint, the SIP technology makes this drive eco-friendly - for its recyclable nature - and a solid performer.
- Environment friendly
- Water proof
- Up to 8Gb capacity
- A portion of all profit from EarthDrives goes to American Forests
- SIP technology
- Waterproof
- Shockproof
- Dustproof
- Recyclable
- Not the fastest drive on the block
- Included software not free

National Building Museum: Investigating Where We Live - Recapturing Shaw's Legacy
Events / National Building Museum: Investigating Where We Live - Recapturing Shaw's Legacy
Investigating Where We Live (IWWL) is a five week summer program at the National Building Museum for teens from the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Participants use digital cameras, creative writing, interviews, and their own observations to explore, document, and interpret the built environment in D.C. neighborhoods.
With the help of the National Park Service and the Historical Society of Washington, the 2013 participants have answered the question, "What does the past have to do with the future?" They became the curators, selecting photos and writings that investigated this question in the context of the Shaw neighborhood and explained the importance of preserving the entire city's shared history.
Since IWWL began in 1996, 500 teens have explored and interpreted neighborhoods across the District, and created visual ways of expressing themselves. Learn how to participate in IWWL next summer!

ST. PAUL, Minn. - Minnesota's Supreme Court has dismissed a lawsuit challenging the funding plan for a new Vikings football stadium.
The decision Tuesday clears a late obstacle that threatened to hold up construction and delay a planned 2016 opening. Minnesota finance officials postponed a $468 million bond sale while the case was pending.
It was filed Jan. 10 by a former Minneapolis mayoral candidate who argued the stadium funding was unconstitutional.
The stadium will be built on the Metrodome site.
State lawmakers authorized construction in 2012. Taxpayers are footing about half the cost.

ExperimentI wrote a script that commits random data and pushes to a bare repository hosted on Dropbox. After push blasting the Dropbox folder with 1,000 pushes from 2 machines in parallel, syncronisation with Dropbox took ages longer than usual (10 minutes)
Did the remote (Dropbox) repository work afterwards?No. You can't pull or clone a fresh copy.
git pull
fatal: Reference has invalid format: 'refs/heads/master (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15)' fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
git clone ~/Dropbox/dropgit/
Cloning into 'dropgit'... fatal: Reference has invalid format: 'refs/heads/master (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15)' fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
How many conflicts did were caused?only 3
find . | grep 'conflicted'
./logs/HEAD (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15) ./logs/refs/heads/master (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15) ./refs/heads/master (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15)The meaning of these directories is explained in "http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/git/directory.htm". Every commit is stored in the subdirectory .git/objects under its SHA-1 hash. This means its extremely unlikely that the commit *data* will collide. Cool! The only collisions are caused in the refs and logs directories which describe the structure of the histories. Looking inside these files yields long lists:
HEAD contains:- ... b42d41fbc73e80808833175e74a58b021417f449 d6b23487fe1d723f4e0649239cdb3f2dd8984780 Georgios Papadimitriou 1352973737 +0000 push ...
HEAD (Tom Larkworthy's conflicted copy 2012-11-15) contains:- ... 09b1ba76a65907249de8d728432a537222bf2288 c2949cd3f9e63d354d3ff4ecd3dc07ca015ccd7e tom 1352177816 +0000 push ...(./logs/refs/heads/master and ./refs/heads/master are identical in structure) So the histories are just big linked lists of the SHA-1 keys of the commits. The conflict is over which linked list is the true history. My friend Georgios's computer is faster than mine, so his wrote to the Dropbox first. My pushes came after, thus his history has be deemed the real one and mine is the conflict.
FixingThe way git works makes it very easy to resolve. Just delete the conflicted files. In my case that means Georgios's history is kept on the remote repository. That repository can now be cloned into a fresh location. However, the remote Dropbox repository will not have my (Tom Larkworthy') history. running
git statusin the local repo of Tom Larkworthy:-
# On branch master # Your branch and 'origin/master' have diverged, # and have 1000 and 130 different commits each, respectively. # nothing to commit (working directory clean)So now locally it appears that those changes were never pushed. So thats a simple procedure to just merge and push them again.
