- Salesforce.com integration that provides seamless integration between the leading CRM platform, and Standard Register's Local and Digital Direct Marketing solutions
- Secure Email marketing capabilities that enable marketers to place brand and message-controlled email templates into the sales channel, while allowing end users to personalize and execute email campaigns in their local markets
- On-Demand Publishing enhancements that allow marketers, sales trainers and product managers the ability to create and publish branded documentation, product literature, and Point of Sale materials such as posters and banners
- Nonpublic Personal Information (NPI) identification that allows users who are publishing files containing nonpublic personal information, to flag orders and assist in ensuring that their contents are managed through the company's secure digital production network
Standard Register (NYSE:SR), a leading provider of critical communications management solutions, today introduced two new marketing solutions – Digital Direct Marketing and Local Marketing, which provide customers even more flexibility, control and security when launching and managing national direct and sales channel focused marketing activities. "For many companies, managing and executing their branded messages across various sales and marketing organizations can be a challenging and expensive endeavor. Marketers are being asked to show return on investment for every campaign, and are contending with a growing number of options that can be used to communicate with an ever more fragmented and localized audience," said Jeff Allen, Director, Marketing, Commercial Markets. "These new solutions help ensure content is relevant and consistent across all sales and marketing channels while helping balance the corporate need to protect the brand and obtain measurable results with the local market rep's desire for flexibility and customized content. Some of the most recognized brands in the world are using Standard Register to help sequence, execute, and measure the results of their national and local marketing campaigns, with spectacular results." Digital Direct Marketing assists companies in managing and executing targeted, cross-media campaigns that advance their reputation, create sales leads, grow revenue and build customer insight. It can integrate customer touchpoints, including Web, mobile phones, email, direct mail and traditional mass media, to allow companies to deliver targeted, personalized communications that attract, retain and grow their customer base. Local Marketing can give companies the control and flexibility they need to maintain brand consistency across sales channels while enabling local users to create and deliver personalized communications and sales and marketing collateral. The solution also provides marketers with the peace of mind that their brand standards will be maintained throughout their sales and distribution networks. Both the Digital Direct and Local Marketing Solutions utilize the company's existing SMARTworks ® Enterprise Marketing Management platform, which is a cloud-based technology framework that enables asset management, workflow configuration, financial settlement, and user management in the industry's most secure, scalable environment. Standard Register recently introduced new features and capabilities for SMARTworks. These include:

A while back I told you how I made my helper (Curtis) a coyote hunting freak. Well here is his first coyote hunt.
It was the winter of 2009 and we have had more snow in Kansas that year than the last 85 years. It was right around -10 degrees and the wind was blowing. Curtis and I were mounting some deer heads in my nice and WARM shop, we were drinking hot cocoa and eating some deer chili. Curtis looks out the window and he saw some deer feeding in my back yard. We watched the deer feed while working on our mounts. The later in the day it got, the more deer came out. Around 2 o'clock Curtis jumps up and says "look coyotes." That's all it took, he saw coyotes and I knew he was done for the day. We were watching the coyotes and they were circling the deer like they were hunting them. Curtis had this bright idea about going coyote hunting, did I mention how nice and warm it was in my shop. Well being the boss I decided to shut down and take Curtis coyote hunting.
We put on every piece of clothing we could find and started the half mile walk to the top of the hill were the deer and coyotes were. We sat in a brush pile and got settled in. Curtis picked up the Rabbit Squealer and started to call. The minute he stopped calling the whole herd of deer started to come over the hill to see what was going on. I looked at Curtis and told him that maybe I should sell that call as a deer call since he just called in a whole herd of deer. He didn't think it was as funny as I did.
Well I told Curtis maybe you should try the coyote howler. He picks up the call and let out a big long howl. The deer started to run in circles not knowing were to go. We waited about five minutes and hit the call again. This time a big coyote came around the corner of the brush pile. He stopped looked at the deer and let out a big howl of his own. The deer are going nuts and the coyote is starting to walk towards the deer. Curtis aims his 22 rifle on the chest of the coyote. He squeezed off his shot and hit the coyote. The coyote runs right toward the herd of deer and died. The deer didn't know what to think and came over to check it out and started to stomp on the coyote. I told Curtis that was the coolest thing I've ever seen. He was mad cause the deer was destroying his coyote. I told Curtis to hit the coyote howler and it would scare off the deer. After he hit the coyote howler about 5 more deer came over and started stomping on it with the others. Then I told him to jump up and start howling with the call and start walking towards the deer. He said "No way, I don't want them to stomp me" (city boys). We both jumped up and the deer left.
Well I always told Curtis we would mount his first coyote but it did not look too good after the deer stomped it. I'll just have to close up shop and take him some other day.

- In response to the Russians taking over Air Force One, the pilots try to land it Ramstein Air Base where the soldiers waiting will quickly retake the plane. The Russians break into the cockpit and threaten them at gunpoint to get the plane back in the air, and they refuse. The pilot is shot because he refused and the co-pilot is next. He still refuses. Sure, the Russians got the plane back in the air anyway, but that took balls of solid rock.
Pilot: (To the rest of the bridge crew) "No matter what happens, we land this aircraft, is that understood?"
- On top of this, the nearly stopped the villains' plan before it could even began as Air Force One only barely avoided touching down at the Air Base where dozens of soldiers were ready to retake the plane. Unlike Marshall's acts in the rest of the film, Ivan was legitimately scarred by this prospect
- Upon dispatching Ivan, the Big Bad:
Marshall: "Get off my plane!"
- The DVD chapter that he does it in is appropriately titled "Get off my plane."
- Halo Two's Taking the Bullet for Air Force One. Quite apart from being a ridiculously brave act, the sheer skill and timing required surely put that 'Eagle driver' on the same tier of airmanship as Wedge Antilles (Star Wars) and Hoban Washburne (Firefly)!
Halo Lead: Not so fast, you son of a bitch.
- And then the Kazakh pilot's victory roll is punctuated by Halo Lead's Sidewinder.
- When the President has been rescued:
Standby... Liberty-2-4 is changing call signs -- Liberty-2-4 is now Air Force One! (cheering ensues)
- Really, the whole sequence with Halo Flight rescuing the plane qualifies from the Vice President's order to "order our fighters back into their airspace. Order them to use any and all means to protect the President" to the "OH SHIT!" the MIG pilots display when the Flight shows up. Awesome.
- When the Russian soldiers gun down Radek and company just before they leave on a helicopter.
- Hey, what about the woman who, after the phones have all been disabled, suggests using the fax machine to get a message out, and for which the President promises her a promotion to Postmaster General. (The huge smile on her face when her suggestion does work and she is parachuting to safety, probably also qualifies as a Crowning Moment of Funny, as well.)
- Jim Brass takes a bullet to the gut for the president. Certain death, right? WRONG: At the end of the film, during the rescue mission right after the president's wife and daughter have safely been transferred to Liberty 2-4, the President insists that he should be offloaded next because of his severe bullet wound, and is ultimately the only survivor of the rescue outside of the president's family. In other words, saving the president = survival.
- Pretty much all of the president's fights against the terrorists, especially the first one, whom he knocks out by hitting in the face with a friggin STOOL (and then kills with a headshot after he gets up thirty seconds later), and of course Korshunov, whom he kills by wrapping a strap around his neck, pulling open the parachute he was wearing, and finally throws him out of the plane (after the legendary Pre-Mortem One-Liner at the top of the page), snapping his neck. Suffice it to say, his approval ratings will probably go through the roof.
- The cable's about to snap and there's only time for one more trip from the soon-to-crash plane to Liberty 2-4, and Maj. Caldwell insists the President go; the President won't hear of going until Caldwell and Gibbs are safe. At which point Caldwell gets his own Awesome Moment (making it even worse when the traitorous Gibbsnote FREAKING KILLS HIM SECONDS LATER!):
- Vice President Bennett is pretty badass in her own right:
General: "He's asking us to [fire at] Air Force One?"Bennett: "He isn't asking. Your commander in chief has issued a direct order. DO IT!"
- Awesome Music: When Randy Newman's score for Air Force One was deemed too parodic and not serious enough, Jerry Goldsmith was called in and gave us this epic, rousing, chest-thumpingly patriotic theme.
- A villainous example would be the spine-chilling moment when Radek is released from his cell, and his fellow prisoners chant "The Internationale", which Korshunov plays through the whole plane.
- Marshall disarming Gibbs after he has already murdered Caldwell and beating him back long enough to fasten himself into the harness just as Air Force One plunges into the sea, taking the traitor down with it. Laser-Guided Karma at its absolute finest.
Awesome / Air Force One
Harrison Ford as the President of the USA. Recipe for Awesome.

Herbed Zucchini Spirals
This recipe is from Gourmet magazine January 1990's "Finger Food Super Bowl Sunday Buffet" menu. I have not tried this yet, but I have lost a 10 year battle to keep all of my Gourmet back issues. I am posting the interesting recipes on Zaar.
Top Review by BarbryT
Tasty but way more work than I generally am willing to undertake---especially for a side dish. I might do it for guests. A suggestion though: please indicate that the 2 cups parsley sprigs should NOT be "packed." My puree was much too thick, since I assumed "packed" parsley. These are beautiful, though.
See Discussion:2 Reviews
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 zucchini, scrubbed
- 2 cups parsley sprigs
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2⁄3 cup walnuts
- 3 tablespoons parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Directions See How It's Made
- Using a mandoline or similar slicing device, sut the zucchini lengthwise into 1/8 inch slices. Arrange the slices on a steamer rack, set over simmering water and steam them, covered, for 3 to 5 minutes, or until just tender. (The zucchini slices should be barely flexible enough to roll. They will soften more as they cool.).
- In a food processor puree the parsley, garlic, walnuts, 2 tbsp of the Parmesan cheese and salt to taste until the mixture is smooth. Arrange the zucchini slices on a work surface and dot each slice along its length with a heaping teaspoon of the puree. Smooth the puree to an even layer on each slice.
- Roll up each slice jelly- roll fashion and fasten the spirals with wooden picks.
- Arrange the spirals in a shallow baking dish, sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoons Parmesan cheese. ( You can make these several hours in advance to this point).
- Bake the spirals in the upper third of a preheated 425 F oven for 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the spirals are heated through.

Mario Bros. Returns is a Mario platformer game for the 3DS and Wii U released on the 1st of August 2015 for both systems. Originally, it was meant to be released on the Game Boy Advance, but was scrapped in favour of Super Mario Advance. Returns is the successor of the New series, which ended with New Super Luigi U, having a total of 5 installments.
Mario woke up and realised he was not at home, but inside some dark cave. Swoopers flying above him, water dripping from the ceiling, ?-Blocks scattered around, but no sign of any other human being. Suddenly, someone's hand touched Mario's shoulder, sending shivers down his back. A voice then reached his ears: "You're alone. Your friends are gone. There's no one to help you. You must get out of here." When Mario turned around, there was nothing behind him. "I guess I really have to get out of here," he thought. And so Mario set off on his new adventure to get back home and find out, where have Luigi, Peach and the others gone.
After some time, Mario reached a tower, blocking the way out of the cave. Having nothing else to do, Mario went inside. When he reached the top, he was surprised, as Boom Boom was waiting him there. "Hmm, I guess Bowser is involved again." Mario easily defeated the burly koopa and went outside. After a short walk, he reached a tower with an airship circling around it. The airship had Lemmy's head. "Now I'm fully convinced - Bowser's kidnapped Princess Peach again and sent his puny allies to stop me! But nothing can stop me from saving Princess Peach again, not even Bowser and his Koopalings!" said Mario angrily and rushed to the top of the tower, where he defeated Lemmy, who then fled to his airship. Luckily, the red-capped man found a cannon on top of the tower, which he used to shoot himself over to the Koopaling. Being on board, he defeated Lemmy again, who, after his defeat, threw Mario off his ship and started fleeing. Mario tried to catch up to him, but he couldn't run as fast as the Koopaling could fly. And so, Mario climbed down the mountain using a rope ladder hanging in front of the tower and continued his adventure.
Many days have passed and Mario has finally defeated Iggy in his airship. A thought flew throw the hero's mind: "Whew, no more of this hot and dry place!" But after a few moments, Mario noticed an eerie looking castle, blocking his way ahead. Without any sense of fright, Mario went inside. He swiftly passed all of its traps and trials, but when he came to the final room before the exit, a shadowy figure appeared in front of him. "Wait a second, that's me!" screamed Mario, even though there wasn't anyone here to scream to. The shadow answered: "I'm not you. I'm me. And you're you. Now, I must test you, before you move on, to be fully convinced, that you're able to defeat Bowser and save us all." And so the two fought. Mario easily beat the creature. "Very well," it said, "Now you may proceed". The same moment, the shadow vanished into thin air. "Well, that was weird, but never mind - I have brothers and princesses to save!" said Mario and ran out of the castle.
When Mario reached the tower of Palm Tree Cove, he said: "Oh, Larry's airship! Now it's the small guy's turn to get beat up!" But how big was his surprise, when at the top of the tower he didn't see just Larry, but also some small Koopa girl beside him. "Finally you're here," said Larry, "Allow me to introduce our new little friend here, Dragonia. She's never ever fought you, so I think it would be fair if I joined here for a bit. Also, by the way, she doesn't have her own airship yet, so I had to bring her here." And so the three fought and Mario easily defeated the other two. After another fight with Larry in his airship, Mario wondered: "I wonder if there're more Koopalings I haven't seen yet. But I shouldn't worry, I'll defeat them anyway." With these foughts Mario continued his journey.
Mario Bros. Returns has a total of 7 worlds (so far), each of them having a certain theme (desert, water etc.), except the secret stages. At the end of each world you fight a boss and in the middle of a world you fight one, two or three more.

Today I read about a 0-day exploit for the apache webserver on golem.de.

But the proposed workaround works quite well for me.
Here are the steps, that I did to prevent my own apache webserver from being exploited (default apache2 installation debian squeeze):
#edit /etc/apache2/conf.d/security and add the following line (e.g. at the end of the file):

GREAT! 🙂 Simply trick, but works fine.
For a public surfstation available for free we needed to have a system, that just simply always works. No user should be able to reset any configuration-settins, change the wallpaper, modify favorites or anything like that. The decision of the operating system was easy: Linux! 🙂
The needed tasks to install this system are the following:
– Download and install Ubuntu (the "Gnome Edition") with all updates (there should be tons of howtos for this in the net)
– During the installation create a user that will be automatically logged in.
– Disable all keyboard-shortcuts in the system-settings dialogue.
– Install the following two addons in Firefox: BlockSite and OpenKiosk
In the OpenKiosk Adminscreen (can be started directly from Firefox) you can customize your "hardened" Firefox. I personally set fullscreen mode, increased the reset interval to 3 minutes, enabled a 30 seconds warning before the reset and removed the Print button and zoom controls.
– Configure Firefox to start automatically when the user logs in.
– Create the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf with the following content. This disables the Ctrl+Alt+F1,Ctrl+Alt+F2, etc. shortcuts for switching through the gettys.
Section "ServerFlags"
Option "DontVTSwitch" "true"
– Mount the root Filesystem readonly with the aufs Filesystem. This ensures that a reboot of the Surfstation/Terminal resets everything to default settings (although there shouldn't be many changes besides the browser history) Here is a great Tutorial for that.
A long time has passed after the last post to this blog. But I'm still alive and today there will be another. 😉
Yesterday I stumbled upon some problems in our virtual infrastructure regarding the Debian Linux Servers. For several reasons (most important is a dedicated network for NFS) i needed to add another virtual network card to those servers. I also removed the existing card, because the type of that card was still "Flexible" and I wanted to change that to "E1000" anyway.
So in short: 1 card (Flexible) was removed, 2 cards (E1000) were added. Sounds easy, but it wasn't! 🙁
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
SIOCSIFADDR: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
eth0: ERROR while getting interface flags: No such device
The interfaces don't come up and i had no idea why!
After some investigation this issue seemed to be related to udev. The MAC address of the old NIC was still in the file /etc/udev/rules.d/z25_persistent-net.rules, but of course the MAC has changed after migrating to the new E1000 card.
The solution is to edit the above mentioned file and replace the wrong MAC address value(s) with the new ones.
After that the appropriate servies need to be restarted:
/etc/init.d/udev restart
/etc/init.d/networking restart
or in short:
That's it! 🙂

Most of the mysql-admins out there will know phpmyadmin as a very helpful and reliable database administration tool. It's available in most linux distros, can easily be installed and is for sure a very nice tool. Today I stumbled upon an alternative mysql administration-tool driven by php called chive.
From the project-website you can quickly see, that it already has a vast feature list and doesn't need to hide after phpmyadmin.
My first impression is absolutely great and i think this tool can drain off phpmyadmin one day, but that's of course a very subjective opinion.

Vegetarian Wild Rice Pilaf
Recipe by kitty.rock
This dish has a wonderful nutty flavour and the combination of wild rice, long grain brown rice and dried fruit is a very nice companion to poultry dishes, including Thanksgiving turkey! This dish requires a couple extra pots for preparation, but it is well worth the effort. Like all rice dishes, this one must be made with well-flavored stock. If you don't have time to make your own, use a carton or can of good quality vegetable stock. If using dried parsley, I add it to the long grain rice as it cooks. If using fresh, I add it before serving. Recipe from "The Big Bean Book".
Top Review by diner524
Just loved this rice, especially for the wonderful crunch and flavor the almonds add to the rice. I cheated and used a box of Uncle Ben's Wild Rice Chicken flavored but just threw away the seasoning packet. This was 1 cup of rice all together so I halved all the other ingredients. To make it easier and less pans to clean, I sauteed the almonds first and then removed to a plate and then added butter for the onion and rice. I then added the broth, salt and pepper and covered. After rice cooked I added the almonds back into the rice. I left out the raisins, personal taste. Thanks for a wonderful new rice recipe Florida Native!!! Made for PRMR Tag.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 cup wild rice
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, finely diced
- 1 cup long grain brown rice, rinsed before cooking (I used Basmati)
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 3⁄4 cup slivered almonds or 3⁄4 cup sliced almonds
- 2⁄3 cup golden raisin (sultanas)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley or 2 teaspoons dried parsley
- kosher sea salt, to taste
- ground black pepper, to taste
Directions See How It's Made
- Bring a pan of water to boil, add enough water to cook wild rice as directed. Add salt to pan and lower heat, cover and simmer gently for 45-60 minutes, until the rice is tender.
- If all liquid is not absorbed by the rice, drain well.
- While wild rice is cooking, melt 1 tablespoon butter in another pan.
- Add the onion and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute or until onion is softened and translucent.
- Stir in the long grain rice and cook for 1 minute more.
- Add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Add the parsley. Cover and simmer gently for 30-45 minutes, until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed.
- melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small frying pan. Add the almonds and cook until they are just golden brown. Set aside.
- Add the wild rice mixture to the long grain rice mixture (I do this in the pan so everything stays warm). Add the almonds and raisins and stir to mix well.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
- Transfer to a warmed serving dish, sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.

In December, when Microsoft rolled out Service Pack (SP) 1 for the 2007 Office System, company officials said they'd give customers a minimum 30-day advance notice before pushing out the service pack via its Microsoft Update (MU) auto-distribution mechanism.
On May 8, Microsoft gave users that promised heads-up. From a Microsoft spokeswoman:
"Today we are providing our customers more than 30 days advance notice that SP1 for the 2007 Microsoft Office system, which was made available to the public on December 11, 2007, will be released via MU automatic distribution beginning June 16, 2008. This means that those customers who have not already installed SP1 and that have chosen to receive updates automatically will start to receive the service pack as early as June 16th. The distribution through MU is a gradual process and so not every customer will see the service pack on June 16th."

2017 Guitar Festival Application and Information
This year the LMU Guitar Festival is pleased to feature the European Guitar Quartet, both as a full ensemble and in smaller duos.
"The birth of a sparkling new star in the concert sky."
These were the words which the German press used to describe the ensemble's debut concert in Dresden in the spring of 2012. The meeting between two global stars of the classical guitar (Zoran Dukić and Pavel Steidl) and two of the most outstanding protagonists of the acoustic guitar scene (Reentko Dirks and Thomas Fellows) was accompanied by enthusiastic appreciation from both critics and audience alike. It was therefore no surprise that their debut was followed by invitations to festivals around the world, which include major festivals in Scandinavia and Germany (Bergen Music Festival, MDR Musiksommer) as well as other prestigious events in Austria, Switzerland, India and South America. Fellow musicians such as Klezmer legend Giora Feidman have also been quick to voice their admiration for their music.
"DANZA" would be a fitting title for the quartet's current program, as it combines the intense, virtuoso, spirited music of South America and Europe to take listeners on a thrilling musical journey. Unique interpretations of pieces by Astor Piazzolla and the dances of the Paraguayan guitar legend Agustín Barrios mingle with the melodious compositions of the masterly Nicolo Paganini and the complex rhythms of Balkan dances (Dušan Bogdanović). Works by Thomas Fellow and Reentko also feature, and present concert music, world music and jazz in a contemporary embrace. These four musicians, each of them a renowned performer in their own right, have set themselves the task of blending the instrument¹s concert tradition with the expressive, dynamic sounds of modern music.
The European Guitar Quartet - a summit of guitar music.
Zoran Dukić & Pavel Steidl
Friday, March 24, 2017
8:00 p.m. (Concert)
Zoran Dukić is one of the most distinguished classical guitarists of our time. His concert performances, as a soloist as well as with an orchestra, leave long-lasting impressions on both audiences and critics. At his "tour de force" competition years he won more competitions than any other guitarist in the world. Presently he leads major classes at a number of European colleges, including the Universities of Barcelona (Spain) and The Hague (Netherlands), where he could establish one of the most successful soloist classes for this instrument worldwide. Born in Croatia, he is now living in Barcelona – but in fact touring almost constantly through the world, playing concerts and giving masterclasses at every major guitar festival.
Pavel Steidl is a true legend of the classical guitar. Born in Rakovník (Czech Republic), he decided to emigrate to Netherlands in 1987, where he lived for several years. Since he won the first prize at the Radio France International Competition in Paris in 1982, he has become one of the most widely celebrated soloists of his generation. His unrivaled ability to create sounds on the guitar make his interpretations a class of its own. But Pavel Steidl also composes himself, and his own compositions are often played on his concerts. As a soloist he travelled more than 40 countries all over the world – the USA and Canada as well as China, India and Japan and South and Central America as well as almost every European country.

Thomas Fellow & Reentko Dirks
Saturday, March 25, 2017
3:00 p.m. (Concert)
Thomas Fellow is a musician with an almost inexhaustible supply of innovative energy. He is a first rate acoustic guitarist, a stunning virtuoso and is considered one of the best musical collaborators in the world. His name is also associated with the development of the pioneering education program "AKUSTISCHE GITARRE (concert music, world music, jazz, pop)" at the University of Music, Dresden (Germany), the artistic direction of the "European Guitar Award" and for his work as the author of an educational standard work for guitar as an accompanying instrument ("FELLOW GUITAR BOOK"/ Schott Music). Born in Leipzig (Germany), he won several prizes at international competitions for classical guitar and played concerts in India, South America and the USA. His Duo "Friend 'n Fellow" ranks after more than 1500 concerts worldwide (with legends such as Ray Charles, Al Jarreau and Luther Allison) as one of the leading projects of this kind.
Reentko is an awarded and highly acclaimed guitarist and composer. His music is a distinctive blend of unorthodox, self-developed percussive playing techniques covering a wide range of styles. He is one of the few guitarists who is as much in demand in the classical world as in the pop and world music scenes. He wrote music for artists of the Cirque du Soleil and the Semperoper Ballet. Currently he is also the guitarist of the Klezmer icon Giora Feidman. Born in Bad Gandersheim (Germany), he moved to Dresden to study "Acoustic Guitar" under Prof. Thomas Fellow. 2007 saw him become one of Fellow's fellow lecturer. Performances have so far taken Reentko to various European concert halls and as far away as South Korea, the Arab Emirates and China.

Dec 21, 2011 at 11:38 UTC
major geeks has a nice codec pak that covers damn near everything
Dec 21, 2011 at 12:00 UTC
I would recommend K-lite codec pack.
We have started using it at our school district and it works great.
It works better then some paid DVD player software that we have.
Dec 21, 2011 at 12:01 UTC
thats the one, i can never remember it.
Dec 21, 2011 at 12:09 UTC
Very much a codec issue..... as above.... I use K-Lite codec pack..... DVD issue(s) solved.
I am sure there are millions of codec packs out there..... K-lite works for me so I've never looked at others.
*EDIT* oops.... Rob posted the same link lol
Dec 21, 2011 at 12:31 UTC
While I will highly recommend VLC, I agree this is a simple Codec issue. I would just go grab K-Lite and be done.
Dec 21, 2011 at 2:04 UTC
Couldn't agree more with the K-Lite + VLC solution, it will solve your problem 99% of the time.

I'm Asian by the way and earlier this week my friends and I were talking about dating and how they aren't really interested in dating because of how mean men are towards them and how disrespectful they are towards black women. They told me they received many comments from guys saying derogatory things about black women and I couldn't understand why because they are both beautiful in my opinion. So I did an experiment and I posted two pictures of my friends on here who are black because they were telling me of how the majority of men look down on black women and see them as ugly or masculine. The results were shocking (at least for me). Most men polled considered them both unattractive
So is it true? Why are black women so unattractive to everyone? I personally think they are beautiful.
As for the masculine features? How? Scientifically masculine features are :
"Men's faces appear to be more square, where as women's faces appear to be rounder. Men tend to have sharper features. Men tend have stronger, larger, more defined jawlines. Men tend to have heavier brow ridges. Men's eye sockets are further apart, proportionally. Their eyebrows are larger, proportionally. Their noses are larger proportionally. Men's eyes are smaller, proportionally and more deeply set. Men's lips are less full, on average; men's lips are thinner and wider. Men's cheekbones are less prominent."
So in general face wise, black women have more feminine features. Large eyes, round faces, full lips, less defined jawlines, their eyebrows aren't large. Men in general tend to have sharper features whereas the black women that I've seen don't. So what about their attributes are manly? Aside from the larger button noses, nothing about their bodies is. Black women that I've seen tend to have curvy round butts, big boobs, hips, etc.. So again besides broad shoulders (which I've seen in every race of women) black women seem to have very feminine faces and bodies. So what exactly is masculine about their look?
Most Helpful Guy
Tons of people on here are racist and old fashioned. I stay away from them,11|00|0
It's not just on here. I did the same experiment many other sites and again guys would say how ugly they were and say many mean things about black women and them being masculine. Also I saw some study rating black women as the least attractive
So many people still want to live in the past tisk tisk

LeBra custom hood protector
Reviewed By Frances S (NORTH FORT MYERS, FL) Reviewed for a 2017 Hyundai Elantra —7/23/2017 8:59 PM
Looks good, fits well, protects paint from rocks etc.
Reviewed By michael w (PORTLAND, OR) Reviewed for a 2015 Lexus RX 350 —7/15/2017 1:51 PM
Needing to do something about the number of rock chips pocking my beautiful daily driver, I was skeptical about purchasing an 80's style hood protector. I priced a full hood clear overlay vs a bra. The value was there, now will it look good. The answer is yes, it looks great! It took about 5 weeks to arrive, but well worth the wait. The product is well designed and the stitching looks like it will hold over time. The installation was a breeze, took all of about 10 minutes. Thankx!

Director Remo D'Souza says he has consciously stayed away from using double meaning dialogues in his movies as he believes an entire family should be comfortable while watching a film. The choreographer-director feels since even children watch films, he ensures that nothing uncomfortable is shown in his movies.
Remo's upcoming movie A Flying Jatt stars Tiger Shroff and Jacqueline Fernandez in lead roles.
"I never do that (use double meaning dialogues). If you have seen my earlier films, I never have those dialogues. I always make sure that whenever my films come, an entire family can watch together," Remo told reporters here.
"No kid should watch a film and ask 'why are they doing this, why that.' I always ensure that the kids shouldn't ask their parents any wrong questions while watching a film," he said.
Remo is currently geared up for the release of his film A Flying Jatt. At an event today, the 44-year-old director said filmmaking is a huge responsibility, which should be used to teach children something valuable.
"I believe film gives education. There is a huge responsibility as a director to make films which can teach kids the right things and not wrong. So I'll always make films which can teach something."
A Flying Jatt marks the fourth directorial venture of Remo, who previously helmed movies such as Faltu and two instalments of the dance-film ABCD. The film stars Tiger Shroff in the lead role of a man with supernatural powers.
It also stars Jacqueline Fernandez and features Australian actor Nathan Jones in a negative role. The film is scheduled to release on August 25.

Fatally ill detective Laurel Hester (Moore) fights for her partner Stacie (Page) to receive her benefits after her death, against an uncaring establishment that refuses to recognize their relationship.
Thanks goodness for Steve Carell. He brings a zap of much needed energy to a movie that is otherwise ably told and exceptionally well acted, but oppressively earnest.
Based on a true story, Moore plays Laurel Hester, a New Jersey detective who keeps her lesbianism a secret from her conservative colleagues. Even when she meets and falls in love with a young mechanic, Stacie (Page), she can't bring herself to tell the truth for fear of stalling the career for which she's worked so hard. However, when Laurel is diagnosed with cancer she fights for Stacie to be given her pension benefits after her death, something the state government refuses same sex couples, and becomes a reluctant gay rights figurehead. Carell is the hugely camp LGBT activist who gets wind of their cause and sweeps in to make it national news and get much better lines than everybody else.
Steve Carell might be in a different film, but his is by far the more fun.
Carell might be in a different film, and a not particularly subtle one, but his is by far the more fun. There's almost no joy written in for Hester and Stacie. They go through every stage of their relationship in a fug of discomfort, either with the world or each other. They're kind of a drag, even in the early flirty stages, and Peter Sollett's uninteresting direction pushes so hard for the tearjerking moments that it has the effect of deadening them. He doesn't earn a big emotional pay off but he's determined to have it anyway, by wheeling Julianne Moore, bald and wheezing, in a wheelchair into a crowded courtroom.
Even if the script and direction don't deserve of them, you still can't go too far wrong giving the heavy lifting to Julianne Moore and Ellen Page. Page has to fill in a lot of Stacie's blanks herself and gives a quietly angry performance, while Moore keeps Hester as subtle as the script will allow. Whatever the film's faults, their performances are still worthy of note.
Strong subject matter and a superb cast are treated disappointingly with sledgehammer subtlety.

(disclaimer: some of the things I will mention here may bear a resemblance to things I talked about last week, the difference being last week I was thinking about them, this week I've put them into practice!)
While I've been away I've been trying to make a bit more time for leisure reading – fiction. In the past choosing good summer reads was part of the fun of preparing for a holiday but nowadays the chance to find the time is rare. Nevertheless I have put down my more literary tome and picked up The Sleeper by Emily Barr. I've only managed to read about a fifth of the book, mostly before dropping off to sleep last thing at night. It's a bit of a slow starter if it is to be a mystery thriller – so far there has just been a very small hint of more interesting things to come. She does however really get you inside the mind of her protagonist so you feel like you might be able to predict her later moves. I've read some books by this author before so I feel confident that the plot will pick up soon!
