Hey Guys!
I have a problem with my Windows 7 Build 7000. I haven't checked with other builds as this one is what i got from microsoft and is considered as "Legal". I have two questions :
- In my windows 7 "Application Data" folder is missing
- Where does firefox profiles are saved on Windows 7
In Windows XP the Firefox profile is located in the following location : "C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox" This location has the profile folder as well as profile.ini file which i assume is for its settings. Well i cannot find this location in Windows 7. I just installed windows 7 and wan't to move my firefox settings in Windows 7. But i cannot find the location where to. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance...!

ToyGuru, Matty,
In the Mini Comics from the 80's Teela and the Sorceress both have made appearances in pink variations in their costumes. This got me thinking that perhaps doing a Pink Teela, since there is no Sorceress as of yet, as a special item for Breast Cancer Research would be a good idea for a fund rasier.
I will admit I do not know all the logistics of how Charity Products work, but I thought it would be something to consider. The profits for this figure could all be donated to one of the reseach foundations, or support groups, etc… I've recolored a couple of images of Teela from the Store as possible samples.
The Pink and Black look great, though the Black should be darker, but I couldn't do that without losing the detail. The Pink and Brown also look pretty good.
I just think it would be a wonderful Idea for an extra figure, and I think a lot of fans would be willing to support it.
Thanks for looking.

Pink and Black Version
(Edited 8/14/10)
On the second page of this thread, there is a version of this image with Blond Hair, and Red Hair. On the third page, i tried to match the boots with the darker pink color as the accents.This message has been edited. Last edited by: Rodimus Knight,

I don't have a Teela, and don't really need it, but I'd buy this one for breast cancer research.
|Matty Member
I would buy the pink and black one for sure.

Not sure if it's possible with this line (YET!) but I would absolutely buy one or more of the Pink & Black (although I'd prefer if all the copper paint apps were done in that same metallic black but that's just nit-picking). I think it's an awesome idea and a great way for us die-hards to get an obscure look for one of our favorite characters in black. Wanna really raise some money though? Throw in a swappable "Blond Teela" head with long hair.

I'd buy a pink and black Teela to fight breast cancer...
Got my He-Mullet at last! Next Step: KAYO!!

cool Idea
Im down for a pink/black one
|Matty Member
I'd be interested in buying a charity "Pink Teela", but I'd be much more likely to buy the figure if it received a new hair colour as well as a new costume colour so that the figure could be a "new character" instead of just a Teela variant.
That typed, even if the charity Teela was a red-head, I'd probably display it with the armour on which would make it somewhat unique.
Of the two, I prefer the pink/black re-deco, although I'd like to see some black/silver detailing on the actual "armour" parts of the costume. The helmet, breast-plate and perhaps the "circles" of the lower belt in the same grey/black/silver colour as the shield and upper arm bracelets would look better and make the figure more distinctive from the regular Teela (IMHO).

Pink and black!
I don't want to be Elfstar anymore. I want to be Debbie.

I'll buy her and keep it MOC, and I'm not MOC collector. Support!

Bracketology: Providence making a move, Baylor in trouble
More Bracketology: Bracket update | Team comparison
Providence hasn't been in the NCAA tournament since 2004, but the Friars are the big movers in today's bracket. They have won five straight, including wins over Creighton and, most recently, Xavier. Four of those five wins were at home though, including both of those. Their schedule takes a turn now, with four of the next five on the road. If they can navigate the next couple weeks with some reasonable success, the Friars might just end that drought.
Baylor is experiencing a drought too. The Bears have lost four in a row and five of six. Among those defeats are home losses to Oklahoma and Texas. The Big 12 is very strong, so there is no relief in sight. Baylor gets West Virginia at home next, but if you think that's a gimme, you should review the Mountaineers game at Oklahoma State over the weekend. If the Bears lose that one, their four game skid could hit eight pretty quickly. After West Virginia, they are play the Oklahoma schools on the road, sandwiched around a home game with Kansas.
Michigan State is still a No. 1 seed despite the loss to Michigan over the weekend. The Spartans are playing without two key starters, Branden Dawson and Adreian Payne. Despite that, the game with the Wolverines went down to the final minutes. MSU can't withstand a long slump and stay at the top, but they didn't look like a team that should drop on Saturday. Also, and this will be relevant to the committee, they are expected to be at full strength for the tournament.

Flores Magon Group
Clementina has owned her grocery store for approximately 13 years and started the business because a neighbor of hers used to sell groceries. Her neighbor moved house and there wasn't another store nearby. Clementina therefore thought to set up a table selling sweet treats. She gradually invested in groceries and stocked her business. She says that, thanks to her loans from the institution, she has increased her profits as she has managed to stock up with items that she didn't used to sell. She supplies her products to different stores in her town.
Clementina is married to Leonel who works for a company that makes baked goods. They have three children who are all married. Clementina's goal is to open special premises for her grocery store since right now she only has some shelves in her living room.
The other ten members of the group are Maria Socorro, Reyna, Isabel, Stephanie, Patricia, Magdalena, Rocio, Vianey, Teresa and Marisol. They requested their loans to invest in a clothes store, to buy sweet treats to sell, to sell meals, to invest in a grocery store, to buy materials for making clothes, to buy catalog shoes, to buy jewelry, to make Mexican snacks and to buy catalog clothes.
Las otras diez integrantes del grupo son Maria Socorro, Reyna, Isabel, Stephanie, Patricia, Magdalena, Rocio, Vianey, Teresa y Marisol ellas pidieron sus prestamo para invertirlo en una tienda de ropa,compra de dulces para su venta,venta de comida,invertir en tienda de abarrotes,compra de material de hacer prendas de vestir, zapatos por catalogo,joyeria fina, antojitos mexicanos y para comprar ropa por catalogo.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Just got the Canucks holiday greeting in my email, clearly a metaphor for the Canucks' season going up in flames.
And speaking of Dorothy: Gary Bettman and Donald Fehr are now starring in Wicked on Broadway. #NHLLockoutMusicas
Oh. My. Gawd. This is who inspired that letter by Chris Kluwe. This is @brendon310. I just may become a football fan.

He swatted Manny on the butt with his fly-swatter that he calls a "Lady Tazer." This is me with he and friend earlier.
Here's a Canucks fan flashing his Canucks tattoo to Manny & Jason as they walked by in #VanPride yesterday.
The Gay Agenda has been revealed! Quelle horreur! #VanPride
Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to my newest Olympic boyfriend from Sweden, Björn Barrefors. #London2012
So when I click on that ad for the Canucks scarf, this is the page I get. Sigh. #FAIL #MyEyesAreBurning
If you want to sell #Canucks scarves, don't show them on someone wearing a short-sleeved t-shirt, who does that??
The Summer Olympics will be starting soon! The only time when Speedos and Spandex look good on people.
I like that @JasonGarrison52 likes to do locker room interviews with his shirt off. #Canucks
Well, the Capitals picked up a cutie: Thomas Wilson.
@Vancougarmama What nickname would you give this guy's Jolly Roger? #CCS
I'd like to be here right now.
I wonder what that number is on Tyler's new tattoo. It looks like an IP number, but, it leads nowhere. #Bruins
@Gaymer_Kyle Is this your hair stylist? :)

2013 Long Beach State Men's Volleyball Schedule
LONG BEACH - Long Beach State head men's volleyball coach Alan Knipe has announced the 49ers' schedule for the upcoming 2013 season.
Knipe returns to Long Beach State for his 10th year at the helm of the program after taking a leave of absence to coach the U.S. Men's National Team.
LBSU kicks off the 2013 campaign at the annual UCSB Invitational, Jan. 4-5. The 49ers then get right into their always tough Mountain Pacific Sports Federation slate the following week, as they head back to Santa Barbara on Jan. 9 for their conference opener against the Gauchos.
Long Beach State also makes the short trip to UCLA (Jan. 15), before playing in front of its home crowd for the first time of the season with back-to-back matches against Hawaii at the Walter Pyramid, Jan. 18-19.
After hitting the road for four-straight matches, the 49ers return to Long Beach for 12 of their next 13 contests. They will entertain Pepperdine (Feb. 6), reigning MPSF regular season champion USC (Feb. 8), Stanford (Feb. 15) and Pacific (Feb. 16). Following a single road match at Cal State Northridge on Feb. 22, LBSU then starts a season-long eight-match homestand by hosting UC Santa Barbara (March 1).
Long Beach State also welcomes UC San Diego (March 6), defending NCAA Champion UC Irvine (March 9) and UCLA (March 13) to the Walter Pyramid, before hosting George Mason and IPFW in the annual Active Ankle Tournament, March 15-16. LBSU then resumes conference play against Cal Baptist (March 21) and BYU (March 23).
The 49ers will be back on the road the next two weekends, traveling to Pacific (March 29), Stanford (March 30), USC (April 4) and Pepperdine (April 6), before closing out the regular season at home against Cal State Northridge on April 13.
The MPSF Tournament is slated for April 20-27, while the NCAA Championships will be held at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion, May 2-4.
Long Beach State finished the 2012 season with a 15-15 overall record and advanced to the quarterfinals of the MPSF Tournament. The 49ers return outside hitter Taylor Crabb, who led the team in kills (303) and ranked second in digs (210) last year. They also welcome back starting setter Connor Olbright (10.40 assists/set).
