Shell Helmet
Ads keep the MarioWiki independent and free :)
The title of this article is conjectural; an official name for the article's subject has not been found, so it has been given a fitting title by the editors. If an official name appears, it is requested that the article should be moved to the correct name.
The Shell Helmet or Shellmet is an item exclusive to Super Mario Maker and Super Mario Maker for Nintendo 3DS. When an empty Buzzy Beetle or Spiny shell falls onto Mario's head, he will wear the shell as a helmet and be able to take an extra hit. The shells also protect Mario from Spike Traps that are above his head, along with enemies attacking from above (such as Thwomps), for as long as the player is wearing one. Buzzy Beetle shells can deflect enemy attacks and defeat certain enemies instantly, while Spiny shells defeat just about every enemy outright on contact; this includes even the tougher enemies, such as Thwomps and Boos, but it only deals a single point of damage to Bowser per hit. When ducking, with either Shell Helmet, walking enemies will bounce off Mario as if he was a wall and shells make the collision sound effect.
Both shells can allow Small Mario to break Brick Blocks, but in the case of the Spiny shell, he can also break Hard Blocks and Empty Blocks. However, the Spiny shell is also a double-edged sword in that it's able to break ? Blocks; this in return, means that Mario won't be able to acquire the contents of the ? Block if he hits it from below. While having the shell fall onto Mario from above is one method of wearing one, the shells can also be worn by pressing while holding one.
The shells can be kicked and act similarly to any other shell that slides along the ground, meaning they can harm Mario on contact while sliding unless Mario touches one from below, in which he will wear the shell. Despite idle Spiny shells being empty, they can still harm Mario, due to the spikes, unless the player holds the dash button when touching one, during which Mario will pick it up, regardless of how he approached it (except in the Super Mario Bros. style). If empty Buzzy Beetle shells are shot out of a Bill Blaster, they cannot be stomped, but Mario can ride the shell instead.
Once wearing either shell, Mario cannot take it off willingly unless he takes damage, or collects a Mystery Mushroom. However, a glitch does exist that allows Mario to wear the Shell Helmet while using the Costume Mario power-up, but it can only be executed in the Course Maker. The glitch was fixed as of version 1.30. In edit mode, Mario can be shaken to remove the Shell Helmet, as well as reverting back to Small Mario if any other power up was given to him.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sent Volkswagen a subpoena under the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989.
The automaker faces investigations across the globe after the company admitted, in September 2015, to installing an emissions cheat system in approximately 11 million vehicles, according to a report by Reuters.
A federal judge also imposed a March 24 deadline for Volkswagen to state whether it has found an emissions fix for 600,000 U.S. diesel vehicles that is compliant with the demands of U.S. regulators.
Prior to that, the department sued Volkswagen for up to $46 billion for violating U.S. environmental laws. VW and its Audi and Porsche brands are barred from selling any new 2016 diesel models in the U.S.
The automaker faces more than 500 lawsuits from U.S. vehicle owners.

I poured about 1 1/2 cups of boiling water over a bunch of grated homemade soap. I stirred it and smushed it until it cooled off enough to mush it with my hands. Then I poured it through one of those cone shaped colanders (used for canning) with the pestal that comes to a point at the end.
I pushed it through the strainer and then strained it again, this time removing most of the remaining soap particles. Then I measured 1/2 cup of the liquid to use in the Body Polisher recipe. This one came out liquidy and would work best in a plastic bottle with a flip top lid so you could pour it.

text: We purchase items from anywhere from 3-5 vendors regularly and each of them have a different price point per item. We stock anywhere from 700 to 1,500 items on a good day give or take. What is the best solution everyone had found to knowing a true profit off an item when you could be using an item from each of these vendors and not know it? I am looking for some ideas on how everyone else figures this out so I can bring it to my boss and show it is not as simple as a tree purchase and knowing exactly what the items are. Thanks

When you run your own business online, there is one thing that is for sure, someone will try to hack into your network.
They will either try to attack your public facing web site or they will try to get into the company's private network.
Either way, there will be a criminal that is trying to get into your network at some point and time.
Business Security And Liability
As a business owner, all you can do is try to set the best security protocols that you can afford.
A small to mid size business is not going to be able to afford the latest and greatest in online security systems.
If this can lead to a company becoming liable then there will be a lot of problems coming for many businesses in the near future.
To avoid being hit with a lawsuit, a company must have a set of online protocols that it follows.
If you can show the judge that you have, in good faith, tried to secure your customers data, then you should be OK.
That is not a guarantee though.
When it comes to laws that involve cyber space, we are making it up as we go along.
There are a new set of rules that come into affect when we are dealing with virtual entities.
For example, when people download music off of the Internet, in the eyes of the law it is considered stealing but there has been no physical product that has been taken.
The item is still there to be sold, the only difference is that you received it for free.
When it comes to cases such as these, in the US, the legal rulings have had a wide range, from the case being thrown out, to some defendants having their financial life ruined over a couple of downloaded songs.
The same thing happens when someone hacks inside of a system.
It is not the act that necessarily gets you in trouble, it is how much damage did that act cause that is the problem.
Trouble Relative To Damage Caused
If there is no damage, then a hacker can face a small fine or probation.
If there are millions involved then a hacker can get up to 25 years in jail.
Whether you are liable or not for an attack by a hacker on your system is still being decided by courts on a case by case basis.
The answer to this question can have serious implications to future online business owners.

« Two weeks in Ontario | Main | Rio Chiguaza, Ecuador »
August 13, 2005
Rio Rircay, EcuadorGustavo, the coolest (and probably only) climber in Ecuador, showed us a couple of rivers near his home town of Cuenca that he thought might be interesting to paddle. One of them was the Rio Rircay, a creek that flows through a few fantastic mini gorges. We set up our base in Gustavo's house in Cuenca... an interesting place consisting of what looks like modern ruins from the outside, a nice home on the inside, and a climbing gym in Gustavo's room.
A first reconaissance trip to the Rio Rircay confirmed that it would be worth a try. Maps showed a resonable gradient, but we could not see everything in the gorges, so it was clear that we would have to be careful.
Dan and I set out to do it, with Gustavo driving the Jeep for the shuttle. Paddling with Dan was, once again, an amazing experience. He was relaxed, always in control, and seemed to always have an eye open for possible dangerous situations; very important on a trip like this. We put in right above a bridge over the first gorge.
The first half hour or so was quite mellow, and the little gorges were fascinating.
Dan was paddling a Pirouette (a very old and long boat, very different form todays short boats), but that did not stop him from playing around... Amazing.
After a while; the water became more interesting, and approached class IV. At one point, right above an easy looking rapid, Dan pointed out that we could not see around the corner and that there was no way to paddle back. So I stayed above the committing rapid, and Dan paddled ahead to check out what's beyond the bend. The idea was that if we can't go further, he would let the boat go, I would through him a rope, and he would scramble back along the canyon wall.
Fortunately, it was all flatwater beyond the bend, so we simply continued paddling.
Notice how high the water can get in this creek... Scary.
Locals tell us that sometimes, the water is completely clear. It would be nice to paddle it like that; if it weren't for the location and the water color, this would be a classic kayaking run.
I'd definitely like to do it again.

BI reporting (via Bloomberg) Apple just cut iPad orders by 25%....something that has never happend before.
Several supply-chain vendors indicated in the past two weeks that Apple, the world's biggest company by market value, lowered fourth-quarter iPad orders 25 percent, the first such cut that analysts at JPMorgan's electronic manufacturing services team in Hong Kong said they have ever seen.
I suppose this would be the signal that the recession really is here and headed for a depression.

"We need to put Pakistan on notice," Sen. Lindsey Graham, a Republican member of the Armed Services Committee said on "Fox News Sunday."
"It destabilizes Afghanistan. They're killing American soldiers. If they continue to embrace terrorism as part of their national strategy we're going to have to put all options on the table, including defending our troops."

2270 Tasting Notes
I am up to my eyeballs in chicken eggs. My young Marans started laying and one of the hens that was molting has started back and I am getting five or six eggs a day. In self defense, I made a pound cake with caramel frosting for Writers' Group tonight and used six eggs.
What would go well with something so sweet? I usually choose a black tea or a oolong that is a bit roasty so that it doesn't compete with the sweetness but instead complements it and enhances it through contrast.
We drank four large steeps of this tea and it was fantastic. Everybody really liked it, and the one serious tea drinker of the group who has actually spent a bit of time in China was pretty impressed with it. Five of us drank eighty ounces. (Some of the folks chose to drink Voltage, instead. The younger ones, of course!)
This is excellent tea, and I am really excited because I am going to my first tea flight Monday night at their shop. It will be a puerh tasting and I love me some puerh!
The lady I had not seen in about five years who came for tea last month wanted to come again. She was picking up feed bags for a Pinterest project. Of course, I wanted to serve tea again because she was so stunned at how good the high quality tea tastes last time! I chose this one for today because she mentioned that she and her mother were interested in tea for the health benefits.
Twice now I have had trouble getting people to understand that white tea is higher in antioxidants than green. They keep insisting on green because of all the articles they have read. As I served this one I read the description and details from the Teavivre website. She was very excited when she heard the part about antioxidants.
We tasted the tea and she declared it to be the best tea she has ever tasted in her entire life, and asked me to order one bag for her and one for her mom. She even stayed for a resteep of the pot and we finished that one, too.
This is one of those teas that would be in my shelf if I ever had to have just five teas. (Gasp!)
First of all, I got my FIRST THANKSGIVING CARD today! Thank you, GMathis, it is displayed on my secretary at the moment and as soon as I dust the mantel in the kitchen it will become part of the Thanksgiving display!
I have wanted to try this tea for a long while because it has some really good reviews on here. To be honest, I used to be fairly picky and didn't eat peaches or apricots, so I wondered if I could tell much difference.
I ordered the absolutely amazing, perfect little sample box made of wood from Harney and Sons. I think it had about 22 different sample teas in it and this was one of them. I had not tried any of them yet, but I took them out to use the box temporarily as our November "Thankful box" in which everyone in the family plus any guests or visitors who desire to do so can place a slip of paper naming something they are thankful for/about. We read them on Thanksgiving night. It was our way of making sure that Thanksgiving didn't become just the inaugural dinner of the Christmas season, but was actually a time of thanksgiving. The Canadians have it right. It really should take place in October!
This is a tea bag rather than a sachet. I steeped it for 3 1/2 minutes in boiling water. Yes, I can tell a difference between this and peach, and I prefer this. This was fantastic! I do taste the black tea, but I feel like I have bitten into a ripe, juicy apricot and have juice running down my hand. It seems more natural than the peach flavor one to me. This will definitely be on a future loose leaf order. I can't even imagine how great it would be iced and slightly sweetened.
I like that idea of having a thankful box. I might have to purloin that idea (as my favorite knitting podcast would say)
My son wanted to try matcha with chia today as part of his clean eating/training program as he prepares for a Spartan Trifecta. I only have one serving of KaiMatcha Premium left and I didn't want to ruin it if the chia didn't work out well.
While this is extraordinarily inexpensive and really great in lattes, it doesn't hold a candle to my favorite as a traditional hot whisked matcha. I did add about 1/2 teaspoon of raw honey to each cup since we had just finished a run. By run I mean he ran three miles and I walked and ran one mile. LOL!
It was drinkable and not very bitter but didn't have the fresh green vibrancy of KaiMatcha. Teavivre says their green tea powder is fried rather than steamed like matcha, so perhaps that is true of this tea as well.
I highly recommend it for lattes, it is really excellent in them, but for a hot cup of matcha with no sweetener, pay the difference if you can and get the great stuff.
We had Writers' Group at my house last night instead of Thursday due to a scheduling conflict. For a while now, we have mostly been drinking oolongs. Last night, one of the ladies told me that she had become unable to tolerate eating beef because of digestion problems, but when she drank "that other tea" at my house she could eat anything she wanted and was just fine. She asked if I could make some of it, especially since she was going to a chili cook-off today.
I showed her the remains of this Phatty cake, let her sniff, and she said it was indeed the kind of tea that had helped her. I pried a bit off and steeped it seven times, for a total of about 150 ounces. Everyone liked it, obviously, since we kept steeping and kept drinking!
I really wanted to order a breaking tray, so getting this close to running out of my Phatty cake is a GREAT excuse to go ahead and place that order. :)
I ordered a tin of this as part of my daughter's birthday present. She has had tons of matcha, starting out with flavored and then advancing to unflavored. She has never had a premium matcha before, though. She is really drinking it for the health benefits.
I whisked some up last night as we were about to play a board game. She had opened the tin and remarked on how vibrantly green this matcha is. She took a sip and said, "There is no bitterness at all!" This is such a fresh, green, smooth tasting matcha…still the best I have ever had.
Next up, I would love to try the premium offerings from Red Leaf Tea and compare them to this one.
Oh horrors. I am nearly out of this. Oh well, I guess I will have to place another Teavivre order! :)
I made a pot of this early today to have with a cherry vanilla bagel, and to share with my future SIL. I could be wrong, but I think he used to drink the type of breakfast teas that really need milk and sugar. From what my daughter says, he drank EVERY kind of tea, including herbals. I didn't know if he would like a black tea that didn't actually NEED milk and sugar, but he seemed to enjoy this a lot. I made two steeps of it and we finished it all.
This is a definite reorder. When I want a Keemun, this one is very civilized and flavorful.
I'm hoping to make my first teavivre order on black Friday.been saving money in a jar for black Friday :)
Oh wow, I hadn't thought of that! I will hold off for Black Friday because I just Know they will do a nice sale!
Love love love jasmine pearls. I have yet to try anu of their teas. I did snag a few of ur samples you left in the teabox. Still sitting on my teacart :)
This is a really busy week – the 16 hour work day for the election, homeschooling, teaching my music students, making a couple of birthday cakes for eldest daughter who is back from Ireland and is having her final eye surgery tomorrow, so she and her fiancé will be staying here tomorrow night, so I am also cooking a lot more than usual. LOL! That is a normal week for a lot of you, but not for me.
I got to do some catching up today, and enjoyed two pots of this, one as youngest and I did our reading (The Complete Father Brown Mysteries) and the second while I taught my music students. The second pot was every bit as tasty as the first, and the enjoyment was undiminished. This had that special something that makes your knees go a bit weak on the first sip.
I was just thinking last night what a shame it is that most literature classes skip the whole mystery genre. Haven't read Father Brown, but would like to.
This was a present from my daughters who just returned from Europe. I love that I get tea when they travel!
This is a beautiful blend when dry – black tea, broken mint leaves, and tons and tons of blue flowers! This is one that should be displayed in a tea dish before steeping as part of the whole tea experience, and would be wonderful to serve to guests after dinner.
The mint is strong but never overpowering. The tea base is smooth, mild, and sweet, not astringent at all. There is a little something….oolong-y?…about the base, a round sweetness that blossoms shyly and briefly at the end of the sip.
Thank you, Superanna! I won't root through yours and your sister's luggage looking for my Christmas present tea TOO much. LOL!

wikiHow to Speed Up a Slow Windows Computer for Free
Four Parts:Disabling Startup ProgramsTurning Off Visual EffectsCleaning Up Your Hard DriveUninstalling Unnecessary ProgramsCommunity Q&A
As your computer ages, it accumulates fragments of temporary files and the hard drive becomes encumbered as a result; after enough time has passed, you will notice a significant difference in your computer's processing speed. While you can't completely negate computer slow-down as it pertains to age, you can do a few things to speed up your computer's processing speed and startup time.
Part 1
Disabling Startup Programs
1Hold down Ctrl+Alt+Del. This will bring up your PC's task menu. If you have a myriad of programs starting up when you log into your computer, you'll likely have to deal with several minutes of general slow-down. Disabling startup programs will fix this issue.
2Click the "Task Manager" option. This will open your computer's Task Manager, from which you can alter or end PC processes.[1]
3Click the "Startup" tab. This is near the top of your Task Manager window; doing so will bring up a list of the programs that boot up when you start your PC.
4Click on a process you wish to disable. Note that "disabling" a process will not disable it from running at all; rather, it will prevent the program from starting up automatically.
5Click the "Disable" button. This is in the bottom right corner of your Task Manager window.
- You can also right-click a process and then click "Disable" in the context menu.
6Repeat this disabling process for all relevant programs. Some common high memory-usage culprits include Skype and Steam
- If you're unsure of which programs to disable, look at the "Startup impact" column on the right side of the Task Manager window; generally speaking, you should disable any "High"- or "Medium"-rated programs.
- It is recommended that you leave your antivirus enabled; otherwise your antivirus might not run at startup and thus you would be unprotected from viruses.
7Close the Task Manager when you're done. To get the most out of this process, you'll also need to clear out the Hidden Icons menu.
8Open the "Hidden Icons" menu. This is the upward-facing arrow on the right side of your taskbar and to the left of your clock. Click or tap it to open your menu.
9Review your Hidden Icons menu. Often, you'll find background processes running here (e.g., Dropbox or Google Drive). Killing these processes will free up random access memory (RAM) which will in turn increase your computer's processing speed. You can end these processes from within this menu.
10Right-click a process you wish to end. For example, if you aren't using your computer's cloud storage app, you should consider ending this process.
11Click "Exit" at the bottom of the context menu. This will usually prompt you to confirm your decision by clicking "Exit (App Name)". You'll need to repeat this process for every single process you want to end.
Part 2
Turning Off Visual Effects
1Open the Start menu. This is in the bottom left corner of your computer screen. Visual effects in Windows 8 and 10 were designed for relevant brand-new machines; if you updated to one of these operating systems with an older computer, you've probably noticed some significant slow-down. Turning down the visual effects will speed up your computer's processing immensely.
- You can also tap the ⊞ Win key to open Start.
2Open the "Control Panel" app. You can do this by typing "control panel" into Start's search bar, or you can open Control Panel manually from the "Windows System" folder at the bottom of the Start menu.
3Type "Adjust the appearance" into Control Panel's search bar. The search bar is in the top right corner of your Control Panel window.
4Click "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows". This should be near the top of the "System" group on the left side of the Control Panel window.
5Review your computer's visual effects. You have a few options in this menu:
- Adjust for best appearance - This will turn Windows effects all the way up, which is effectively the opposite of what you should do.
- Adjust for best performance - This will turn Windows effects down considerably, speeding up your computer in the process.
- Custom - Un-check the box next to any feature you wish to disable. For optimal performance on an older machine, disable every feature.
6Click the option that best pertains to your PC. For older machines, using the Custom option to disable all visual effects is your best course of action, while the "Adjust for best performance" option will take care of most mid-range computers.
7Exit the Performance Options window. You may notice a decrease in the presentation quality on your computer, but its processing speed should have increased.
Part 3
Cleaning Up Your Hard Drive
1Open your Start menu. This is in the lower left corner of your screen.
2Type "disk cleanup" into the search menu. You should see an app appear at the top of the Start screen.
3Click the "Disk Cleanup" app. Disk Cleanup is a standard utility on an Windows computer; it rids your computer of temporary files, processes, and other small bits of information that can slow down your PC's processing speed.[2]
4Check every box under the "Files to Delete" heading. This will clear the following items from your computer's cache:
- Downloaded program files
- Temporary internet files
- Recycle Bin contents
- Temporary files
- Thumbnails
- You may also see other options here depending on which default apps shipped with your device. It's perfectly safe to check any box in this menu, so check these too.
5Click "OK", then confirm by clicking "Delete Files". This will get rid of your computer's temporary files. If you don't perform this cleanup often, you can find several gigabytes' worth of temporary files and such here.
6Open Start again, then type "defrag" into the search bar. This will locate the disk defragmentation app on your computer.
7Click the "Defragment and Optimize Drives" option. This should be at the top of your Start menu. When your hard drive has been around for awhile, its subfolders and their respective contents get scattered around your hard drive (in other words, your drives "fragment"). Running the Disk Defragment tool will consolidate your files and these fragments, which will increase the speed at which your hard drive can access information.
- Do not run the Disk Defragment program if your computer has a solid-state drive installed. SSDs are made to resist fragmentation, so running a defrag on them can seriously damage your files.
8Select your main drive in the Defrag window. It should be labeled something like "OS:C".
9Click "Optimize". This will begin to defragment your drive. Depending on how long it has been since your last defrag, this can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.
10Consider moving files to external storage. Hard drives recall the first 50 percent of storage placed on them much quicker than they do the bottom 50 percent; for example, if you have a 500 gigabyte hard drive, the first 250 gigabytes of information you put on your hard drive will be quicker to access. You'll notice significantly less slow-down on your PC if you limit your file storage to half of that of your hard drive's capacity. The best way to do this is by increasing your hard drive capacity with an external flash drive or hard drive.
- You can also move your files to any one of several free cloud storage services (e.g., Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox).
Part 4
Uninstalling Unnecessary Programs
1Open your Start menu. You can view all of your PC's programs and apps from inside of the Start menu; simply scroll down to view all of them.
- You will also see folders here; they often contain more apps, so click them to view their contents.
2Decide on which apps you want to uninstall. Generally speaking, apps like "News" or a radio app that ship with your OS are completely unnecessary (and easily replaced with better programs or online plugins).
- If an app is crucial to your computer's functionality, you won't be able to delete it; that being said, most mandatory apps take up minimal processing power.
3Right-click an app you want to uninstall. This will prompt a context menu.
4Click "Uninstall", then confirm your choice. This will immediately uninstall your app or program, negating the need to visit the "Programs and Features" folder.
- You may have to click "More" at the bottom of the context menu to access the "Uninstall" option.
5Uninstall any apps you don't use. Most Windows computers ship with a large quantity of stock apps, plugins, programs, and free trials; these should all be candidates for deletion.
6Consider installing replacement programs. For every stock installed app, there is at least one viable alternative:
- Replace Microsoft Edge with Chrome or Firefox. Both of these browsers are faster, easier-to-use alternatives to Edge.
- Replace "Groove" with iTunes. Again, you can't delete Groove, but it takes much more processing power to run Groove than it does to run iTunes.
- Replace your default video player with VLC. VLC can play almost any video format and has a simpler, cleaner interface than default Microsoft video players, which translates to quicker processing speed.
7Restart your computer. After implementing all of these changes, your computer should be running much faster now!
Community Q&A
If I delete the history of my previous web searches, will that make my computer faster?wikiHow ContributorIt will make your browser run faster, but most likely not your computer.
Why does my laptop run slower now that I've cleared it of viruses?wikiHow ContributorYou should try cleaning temporary files. To do this open the Start menu and type "RUN" in the search bar. Open the application and type in "%temp%". Now you should see a folder with lots of files, which you can delete to increase your computer's speed.
I am cleaning up my computer, how do I know which processes to disable under task manager?wikiHow ContributorDon't disable processes, just disable the startup programs that you don't use very often, and restart your computer.
My Gateway laptop is slow. How do I make it speed up the system?
In part 3 the Disk Cleanup gives me the option to clean system files. Should I leave this alone or are there any that I can delete, and if so which ones?
- Practicing good technology habits--such as keeping your computer charged and turning your machine off regularly--will increase both your machine's lifespan and its running speed significantly.
- You should also run security checks at least once a week using the antivirus security program of your choice. This will keep adware and malware from clogging up your computer's processor.
- Make sure your computer is running in high-performance mode. If you're on a "Power Saver" plan or something similar, you will notice decreased processing speed when using high-performance apps or games. You can check this by clicking the battery icon on the right side of your taskbar.
- If your computer is more than a couple years old, you're going to have a hard time transitioning to a new operating system (e.g., Windows 10). New OS renditions are generally optimized for technology currently on the market, not three- or four-year-old machines.
- While it isn't technically part of your physical computer, clearing your browser's cache and cookies will improve your web browsing speed.
- Refrain from downloading third-party apps to clean up your computer. Everything one of these apps might accomplish will be easily doable by you with the technology available by default on your Windows PC.

Final Days of Make a Will Fortnight
- Created on Tuesday, 26 April 2016 14:29
It is the last few days to contact our solicitors and book an appointment to take advantage of Make a Will Fortnight (April 18-29).
We are offering you the chance to have your simple Will or mirror Wills professionally written at a discounted fee, which is kindly being waived by our partner firms and passed to the Hospice as a donation.
How it works in 3 simple steps:
- Contact one of the participating firms shown on the leaflet during April 18-29 and make an appointment. Please mention St John's Hospice's 'Make a Will Fortnight'.
- Attend your appointment and make or amend your standard Will. Fill out the form that you can find online or that your solicitor will provide.
- The participating firms will kindly not charge you for their time but will invite you to make a suggested donation to St John's Hospice of £150 for a single Will and £250 for a joint or mirror Wills.
Whether you have been thinking about writing a Will, or you have already written one but would like to update it, our Make a Will Fortnight can help you. Our participating solicitors - Seddons Solicitors, Attwells Solicitors LLP, Hodge Jones & Allen LLP and Wills Probate & Trusts - are happy to answer any questions you may have.
There is no obligation to leave a gift in your Will to St John's when you use this service, but we are very grateful to those who do. Every gift makes a difference, but by including a gift in your Will to St John's you enable us to plan ahead for the future with the knowledge that we will have funds in place to continue to deliver our expert palliative care services completely free of charge to the local community.

I think I'm really going to enjoy working at my new job because I can bank all of the dumb shit my coworkers say and lay it out for you on Office Ranter. Come to think of it, my new job is a gold mine.
UPDATE: If you read my post from last week, I'm happy to announce that another Canadian was hired, although for a different department.
Anyway, moving on to this week's #ShitMyCoworkerSays post. And as always I want to hear your stories and rants. Send submissions to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please and thank you.
Context: Three days into my new job, I felt I could peg who the micro managers were, regardless of title, by the way they hovered over peers and barked orders like the stick up their butt holes were causing splinters. But there was one colleague who surprised me. Hierarchy-wise, she was on the same level as me. She appeared "normal" and was really easy to talk to. There was one time I asked her where I could find certain documents. She came over to my desk to show me the pathway and she mentioned that she sent me an email with an article that pertained to my current project. I took a look at it, bookmarked the article, then deleted the email. BIG MISTAKE!

Dumb Comment of the Week!
On days when unicorns are galloping across a rainbow and dropping tiny nuggets of gold into your lap, you make unicorn lemonade – such as with the above gem.
A friend who works for a mall management company, sent this to me and we both wondered if the person who emailed this to them is a special snowflake.
He appears to be a full-grown adult because he's using, what I would assume, his own money to purchase jeans. But to be so grossed out by someone's breath, really? Have you never took a whiff of your own shit before? I would say the smell of poop is worse than bad breath.
And what exactly do you want the mall management team to do? Hand out breath mints to the store's employees? The mall has zero control over who the store's hire. And dude, perhaps first contact the actual store and deal with it head on if it bothers you that much.
You don't actually give any descriptors to identify this employee. You weakly call someone out and expect what in return exactly? If you already know the pair of jeans you want, go into the store, and if the employee who helped you is there, find another employee to work with you. If there isn't another one, tell the employee the jeans you want, pay for it, and be on your way. The whole transaction could take less than 10 minutes.
Is bad breath that scary to you that you need to travel somewhere else for the pair of jeans you want?
Men Who Throw Tantrums in the Workplace Get Rewarded
I came across this THR report yesterday over Paramount's negotiations with Mel Gibson's Braveheart budget. Apparently, the studio's initial offer was lower than Mel's expectations for what he would need to shoot the film. So, during a meeting with Paramount, when he was told how much money they were willing to put up, Mel went nuclear, as he usually does:
Gibson was furious. "He grabbed a large glass ashtray and threw it through the wall," recalls agent Jeff Berg. "He threw the ashtray through the wall!"
The actor-director confirmed the incident. "I was like, 'What the f-ck do you people mean? I turned down three jobs — blah, blah, blah.' I was kind of upset, probably a little over the top. It was all posturing bullsh-t."
A week later, Paramount revised its offer, putting up one-third of the budget and taking a lower distribution fee.
The way I read the anecdote, it's being told as a success story. Especially the way the piece ends, like this:
Braveheart would go on to win five Oscars, including best picture and best director nods for Gibson.
The way it's postured here is that Mel fought for the film. And it was his commitment and passion that got him to produce the iconic movie.
But he THREW AN ASHTRAY THROUGH A WALL during a business meeting and he was immediately rewarded with more money. THE F-CK!

#ShitMyCoworkerSays: April 16 – 21
Like bosses, coworkers also say dumb shit. And the more people you work with, the number of dumb words spoken goes up – exponentially.
I'm happy to document it all with #ShitMyCoworkerSays and I want to hear your stories, too. Send submissions to firstname.lastname@example.com. Please and thank you.
Context: On my first day at my new job, myself and the "racist white lady" were invited out to lunch to meet our new department mates. When you meet them, it's clear that our new work mates are an international bunch. So what does "racist white lady" say the moment she sits down at the table before getting to know anyone?

Etiquette is Dead: When My Real Name Brings Out the Casual Racist in You
Sorry for the two-month radio silence, Ranters. I was looking for a new job because I felt my 9 to 5 gig was making me dumber. I'm happy to announce that as of last week, I'm working somewhere new and it will put my brain power to the test. I'll spill the new job details in a future post because I want to dedicate today to something that's been on my mind since I started my new job.

Happy Easter!
Happy Easter!
I won't be ranting today because my mouth is full of chocolate. So, I leave you with the two cutest bunnies alive.
Am I Bitch For Not Donating Money to Your Kid's Fundraiser?
Sorry, but I don't want to donate money to your husband's hockey fundraiser or your kid's school this year or any year. It's not because I can't afford it, but it's because I find it all too invasive and impersonal. It makes for some awkward conversation when you're standing across my desk and shoving the donation box in my face, but won't leave my office when I've clearly indicated that I'm not interested in donating.
To me, the work place is not the place or environment to be asking for money of any kind. Call me a skeptic, but how do I know the fundraiser is legit and not used as a front to pay for the vacation that we all know you will be going on next week?
Plus, some people can't afford it and don't want to be put on the spot like they're they bad guy for not shelling out the money they earned.
What would you do in this case? Any advice on how to respond diplomatically?

3 Years Later | Desperate to be in Denial Yet Painfully Aware
|My 1st hospital stay at MGH Lunder in July 2014
It's only been three years yet it feels like an eternity. I find myself always feeling somber, nostalgic, and reflective around this time otherwise known as my "NMOversary". I get lost in my thoughts wondering how different or easy my life would be if none of this happened while simultaneously wondering how unfulfilling my life would be if none of this happened. In short, I'm really tired and incredibly confused.
I attach numbers to everything; it's the way my brain operates and computes. Therefore, allow me to quantify the last 36 months...
85 infusions
26,000mg of IV steroids
as much as 70% visual field loss
12 specialists involved in my care
11 MRIs
9 ER visits
5 potent / chemo-grade drugs
5 hospital stays
4 sessions of plasmapheresis via a port
4 months of menopause
4 eggs harvested
3 collapses
2 lumbar punctures
2 atypical, debilitating migraines
2 PET/CT scans
1.5 years of Plantars Fasciitis / Achilles Tendinitis
1 skin biopsy
Urodynamics test
Kenalog injection in my right eye
Intravenous Immunoglobulin
I go to great lengths to block things out of my memory and pretend as if my illness isn't that serious. If I don't talk about it or place any special focus on it, it's not real then... right? Make no mistake, I am an obedient and cooperative patient however, I've developed a habit of minimizing my issues which I imagine must be some kind of defense mechanism.
There was a time when it was visibly obvious that I was going through something. But through the great strides made towards recovery, I've reverted back to looking like a healthy young woman causing a great deal of confusion for myself and others for that matter. Sometimes I look in the mirror and wonder, "how the hell is all of this going on when I look like this?" So many slippery mind games.
When I first got hit with this in 2014, I would've never imagined that I'd still be dealing with it in 2017. I foolishly assumed I'd have to deal with it for a year (at most) and then it would vanish into thin air. It has caused so much disruption and pain in my life, continues to do so, and shows no signs of leaving me alone any time soon. Even though I don't look ill anymore, I am still quietly suffering and very much dealing with things beyond what people can comprehend or see. Perhaps it's the actress in me; I put on a great show which is why people (including myself) are always shocked to hear about what I've been through and continue to weather.
I was a girl when this happened to me - naive, aloof, and completely unaware. When I look at pictures of myself from right before the onset, I see a girl with so much innocence in her eyes, someone who was clueless as to what was coming for her. It brings tears to my eyes because I wish I could go back and protect her.
Everything has changed. My vision, hearing, sensations, sleep pattern, eating habits, weight, energy levels, skin, the way I walk, mood, fertility, the asymmetry of my mouth when I speak, my personal life, digestive system - you name it, it has all changed. But things have changed for the better too. What kind of Sumaira post would this be if I didn't couple the bad with the good? I've built a foundation from the ground up, working alongside talented and passionate people, to raise awareness for NMO. I've always maintained that the foundation is the greatest gift of my ailing health. I also won Miss Bangladesh-USA in 2015 representing my native country on a national platform while enduring one of the most potent chemotherapy drugs in the market. The best part? I've traveled to 15 different places all over the world since 2014! Despite losing my vision, my eyes are wide open now. I see so much more and my priorities have changed for the better. I've transformed into a tenacious and resilient woman with unbreakable strength and that, I wouldn't trade for anything else.
I try my best to focus on all the good in my life because there's plenty to be excited about but, it's not always easy to shift the focus when symptoms compound and spread. Living with a rare, chronic illness can be very isolating. It's becoming increasingly harder for me to relate to people as the disease evolves. The loneliness is very real. It's also extremely exhausting physically, mentally, and emotionally.
I probably exert 40% more energy than a healthy person my age to do simple things. I've made it a priority to live as normal of a life as I can in order to maintain my sanity amidst the never-ending horror. The end result of that hard work is pretty impressive if I say so myself :) With whatever time, energy, or mobility I have left, I owe it to myself to do absolutely everything I want to do in my life. There's still a lot to do and see and believe me, I will find ways to accomplish it all.
This post is kind of all over the place but that pretty much sums up where I am at this stage - all over the place. Three years later, I'm still entangled in a medical enigma, searching for answers, frustrated and fearful, but strangely grateful and lucky. The lesson to be learned here is one of the first lessons we learn as children - don't judge a book by its cover. We're all going through something even if we don't look like it. xoS

Wait, rm only or can it be rmvb as well?
.RM, .RMVB, and .RM.RAM are basically all the same file format. So they can be classed as .RM files. I guess…
Yes, RMVB is acceptable.
Can I post my trailer on my website on June 6th then and my movie on June 13th?

Institute Commends Mayor Pugh's State of the City Speech
ROCKVILLE, MD (March 17, 2017) — The Maryland Public Policy Institute today commended Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh for focusing on education reform and economic development in her State of the City address Thursday.
"We applaud Mayor Pugh for recognizing that economic growth and school reform are the antidotes to many of the challenges facing Baltimore," said Christopher B. Summers, president and chief executive officer of the Institute. "Homelessness, crime and unemployment are often the byproduct of a failing school system and lack of good jobs. Baltimore must institute broad based tax relief to spur job growth and insist on comprehensive public school reform to be a Superstar City once again. We stand ready to assist the Pugh Administration in any way can."
The full text of Mayor Pugh's address can be found here.
About the Maryland Public Policy Institute: Founded in 2001, the Maryland Public Policy Institute is a nonpartisan public policy research and education organization that focuses on state policy issues. The Institute's mission is to formulate and promote public policies at all levels of government based on principles of free enterprise, limited government, and civil society.

WEB and Colour Blind Safe colours[edit]
Does anyone pay attention to table colours as to be colourblindness or web safe? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 10:22, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, some users do. I have gone ahead and matched the colors of one of the legends with its respective table since previously, to red/green color blind users the green/lightgreen/red/lightred appeared as 4 different shades of brown. If anyone's interested you can see a color blind simulation of the previous article here and compare it with the current article here. I didn't notice any other issues so I have gone ahead and removed the tag.AerobicFox (talk) 03:12, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
Vista Problems[edit]
Why is there no information in this article on the numerous problems inherent to Vista? A simple google search shows plenty of credible tech news articles listing the things that are wrong with it, from its general buginess, to its resistance to installing certain programs. Vista 64 is obviously much slower than previous editions (the concensus seems to be a 1-2 second delay when clicking tabs or using Mozilla or Explorer). This really needs to be in here, because lots of people use wikipedia when they decide to purchase something. Wikipeida should not be a defacto ad space for Microsoft in this instance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 14:05, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

32/64 bit versions clarification[edit]
The intro needs to clarify that each of the five editions (excluding Starter) are available in 32- and 64-bit "versions", meaning separate discs. Right now it reads like each edition supports both on a single disc. So, in fact, there are eleven "editions" of Vista.Armandtanzarian (talk) 17:47, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
64 bit[edit]
Can the 64 bit editions only be run on a system with a 64 bit prossessor or can they run on a 32 bit prossessor also? --220.127.116.11 04:41, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
- no, however 32bit editions can and often do run on 64bit capable processors --Rythie 15:40, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Starter edition information complete crap[edit]
The limitations mentioned regarding the starter edition are almost complete crap. Maybe do a bit of research before writing something? (There is no memory limit of 256MB, hell, it won't even run with that little, and afaik there is no actual CPU limit either, but rather, the sale of the product is limited to areas where there really isn't anything faster than 2GHz available).
- I've fixed this -Rythie 15:40, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
Correct prices?[edit]
The prices for the basic edition, as quoted by the article are, US$199.00, £179.99, €259.00 and AU$385.00. £179-99 is $355.63! To put it another way,
USA - $200 (plus tax for whatever state you're buying it in presumably) UK - $356 EURO - $336 Australia - $304
Surely this can't be right, can it? ;) --Mal 13:34, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
- These kinds of price discrepencies are common. Ask any world traveller about it, they'll tell you... -/- Warren 15:55, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
Indeed. I have travelled the world and I have borne witness to this. It doesn't stop me from highlighting it though, does it? Nor from thinking its a bit of a scam really, but there y'are. You know what opinions are like, I'm sure.. assuming you're a world traveller yourself. --Mal 00:29, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes price discrepancies are common, but not like this! Are you trying to tell me that Microsoft actually plans to sell the upgrade of vista ultimate in the UK for £650? That's over US$1200! I could buy a new Dell with Home Premium on it next month for £650! (seriously). Or better yet I could get a MaBook with Tiger for £100 more. Where's the sheet that says these will really be the prices?Nicholas 20:20, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- I have to add to this. The Aussie Ultimate prices are crazy! AU$1251.00 full and AU$895.00 upgrade God, the full version costs more than a computer which can run Vista for crying out loud. I was informed the full Aussie price for Ultimate is around $750 and the upgrade around $550. Where is the source for these out of this world prices? --Lakeyboy 12:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
- Well I can confirm via Amazon.co.uk that the prices on the main article are NOT correct. The full version of ultimate is £369.99 and the upgrade is £249.99. Still more than US, but no where near what the article has them as. They should be updated accordingly. Nicholas 13:22, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Canadian prices are wrong. It is 299.99$ for the Home premium, 499.99$ for the ultimate, 259.99$ for the home basic and 379.99$ for the Business all in canadian dollars Future Shop. It's only 0.99$ for all prices ;)
Ultimate Vista Pricing[edit]
In my opinion the article is missing a consideration on the products specifics like the ridiculously crippled "starter Edition" and the incredible price policy. I may accept that there are price diferences between Brazil and USA, but not between USA and Europe, specialy prices 70% higher on European countries! There are other cases like this on other countries. The article could have a section trying to explain the reasons for this. It may seem out of order to put price discussions on an Enciclopedia article, but in this case they seem to be so absurd that it may raise suspition of some hidden intentions from Microsoft. Knowing the real reasons behind this policy could be very important in terms of future defense of consumer rights. I can sugest a couple of reasons for this policy:
-The closing eyes to piracy and the very low prices on poor countries have the objective of avoiding the entrance of Linux. We know that the price of developing software is large, but the real price of a software copy is virtual nil, specialy considering product versions that give no user support.
-Price discrepancys between similar income regions like USA and Europe may be a way of this American company lowering development speed on Europe. Amcgt 00:51, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Ultimate Vista Pricing (US)[edit]
I was checking the pricing for the ultimate and I believe it needs to be readjusted... it's listed as $599 at newegg (god knows why) but can someone confirm this and make changes
Xeontg 00:55, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
- That's for a 3-pack. A single OEM license is $199 [1] - Indecision 03:03, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
Australia pricing[edit]
I am Australian and on TV, I saw vista home premium advertised for $179.95 (aus dollars of course). That's a lot less than $300. Could someone please explain this?
- Sure it isn't the academic version, or an upgrade version?Harryboyles 11:15, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
- I'm sure. It was on an advert for a store you may have heard of called harvey norman and it said
"Microsoft is scheduled to release windows vista on january 30th." It then said something about the features. Then "Windows Vista Home premium for only $179.95" Something something something. It had a picture of the box displayed in the article.
- Based on the official prices on the article, it must be an academic version. I don't see Harvey Norman selling the full version for $180. Nor the upgrade for two-thirds of the price. That would be just stupid (and I do know what Harvey Norman is as I'm also an Aussie). Harryboyles 14:45, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
Another question which i couldn't find an answer for in the article, what is an academic version and how do upgrade versions work?
- You generally need to be a student or teacher to purchase an academic version. Not completely sure how usage rights work. Upgrade versions will usually only install over a previous version of Windows. Regardless, you need to own a legit copy of a previous version of Windows to legally use an upgrade. I presume if you only have Windows XP home, you can only upgrade to Windows Vista home basic but you'd need to check further on that. You can also upgrade between Vista versions altho you don't actually need a seperate DVD for that since the default comes with all versions AFAIK 18.104.22.168 13:39, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
- I can confirm that Harvey Norman is selling the Windows Vista Home Premium Upgrade Editon with Academic Pricing for $178. To obtain the academic pricing, you must present some sort of school identification to the Harvey Norman staff or you have to pay the normal price for Home Premium Upgrade. Not sure if any other outlets besides Harvey Norman are doing it. --Lakeyboy 01:45, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
move "editions and pricing" higher up?[edit]
Can we please move the "Editions and pricing" section somewhat higher up on the page. I suspect it has information that page visitors would want to see before some of the other sections.--Sonjaaa 16:03, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- Okay... I moved it under the features section. It's important that we describe the features before we get into editions, so it shouldn't be any higher than that. -/- Warren 23:47, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
- i think pricing belongs on some marketing blurb, not an encylopedia. (yeah yeah - "it's a FACT" but really, it's so changeable. Junkwaffle 02:56, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Marketing Blurb[edit]
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Windows_Vista/Archive_6 for discussion section about this article reading like extracts from a marketing blurb. I think it's a little better now. Junkwaffle 02:39, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
Still not sure why we need a picture of each box on the pricing list - makes the section look more like a catlogue than an article. Junkwaffle 02:51, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- *shrug* We're discussing retail software, it's not really out of line to show the retail packaging. We have similar images on Mac OS X. -/- Warren 16:48, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
- I disagree, while not exactly out of line, showing the retail packaging is IMO of little value, merely bloat. The packaging is not the product, and the article isn't titled Windows Vista retail packaging. I also feel that it's not much of an argument that there are similar images on the OS X article; perhaps they shouldn't be there either? I suggest including one representative image of a package, not the entire catalogue (they don't look that different anyway). Naphra 07:56, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
Korean won[edit]
The article mentions a Korean won, which hasn't existed since 1910. It must be referring to either a North Korean won or a South Korean won, I assume the latter? Don't want to put it in without knowing that, though - Jack · talk · 14:51, Sunday, 4 February 2007
- It's gotta be South Korean, for one thing that's what the KRW abbreviation refers to (North Korea is KPW). I've changed it. DopefishJustin 01:22, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
"support to 2012"[edit]
The article suggests (well, makes explicit) that Microsoft will only support Vista to 2012. Since they're also supporting XP to 2012, I wonder if someone hasn't got some wires crossed? 220.127.116.11 02:52, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Dream Scene inaccuracy[edit]
Part of this article states that "Dream Scene" was available immediately after launch. This is incorrect. A technical preview of Dream Scene was released several days after the launch, however the full version of this utility has yet to be released. Dino213aa 17:51, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

System Builder Edition[edit]
Warrens told me to direct the following question to this discussion board:
Would it be important to add a section--a blurb, even--which deals with the System Builder licenses/editions of Vista which Microsoft releases? It's an OEM version of their software. I don't know how much, or if at all, Microsoft OEM software has been pushed in the past, but many internet retailers seem to be carrying it. The license is a bit more restrictive and there is no support from microsoft, but that is traded off with a cheaper price: Windows Vista 32-Bit Ultimate System builder is $189USD; 64-Bit goes for $199USD as of 3/28.
This OEM software is intended for system builders only and cannot be transferred to another PC once it is installed. The purchaser of this software is required to comply with the terms of the System Builder license, including the responsibility of providing all end-user support for the software.
The full text of the license is available here: http://oem.microsoft.com/downloads/Public/sblicense/2007_SB_Licenses/English.pdf Kingsean 13:50, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
There is no hint anywhere on Microsoft related websites that WinSAT is an Ultimate-only feature. Yet it is listed here under the Ultimate description. Confusing, at best. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 14:25, 4 April 2007 (UTC).
Why is there an article of this subject?[edit]
May I ask the editors of this article what is the motivation for having an article about an ever-changing retail-value of a piece of software? If individuals wish the current updated price they can use pricerunner or similar. I personally see no need for any information about price, though the comparisons between the different versions is good. Fred26 11:01, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
Windows Vista Starter[edit]
Has the Starter edition not shipped yet? It seems everything in the article about this version is written in future tense. Josh the Nerd 17:28, 4 June 2007 (UTC) Josh
Pricing comparisons[edit]
I removed this line
- The prices quoted in GB£ refer to the price paid, and not a simple exchange of prices in US$. For example, the price of the Home Basic edition in the UK is GB£179.99. Based on the exchange rate on Feb 16 2007, this is US$350.87, approximately 75% more than the US price (The converse price in the UK would be GB£102.57).
It is unreferenced and therefore likely OR. More importantly it was extremely simplistic and misleading. Firstly the price in all regions including the UK refers to the RRP, not the price paid. The actual price paid may be lower or higher depending on retailer. (Amazon.co.uk for example currentlys sells at below the RRP). Secondly, the exchange rate used should surely be the 2006 one when these prices were set, not the 2007 one. Most importantly, whoever did this comparison appears to have completely forgotten the UK prices includes 17% VAT. If someone wishes to re-include a price comparison, I suggest they at least use a good source. For example, I came across this source [3] which at least does a half decent job at doing a proper comparison (and comes out with the conclusion that while the price is higher, not nearly as much as people are making out) Nil Einne 07:28, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Windows Vista Ultimate Upgrade Limited Numbered Signature Edition[edit]
Does this info need to be included with the info for Vista Ultimate? Having it in the same place can mislead readers into thinking that there are only 20000 copies of Ultimate being made... At least I thought so after quickly browsing through.

Windows Vista 64 article[edit]
I am not bothered if the Windows Vista 64 remains or is merged, but I think the 64-bit editions should be given more cover, and I was surprised that no such article was found when I searched when this article was first created. I also think this article could expand and be relevant. I must say it is not covered in this article at this time. The only thing I recommend is that a proper merge is performed so that a) nothing is lost and b) the section is clearly defined. I also take note of the name issue and propose renaming Windows Vista 64 to Windows Vista 64 editions. Cheers.--Triwbe (talk) 18:37, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Why has this merge been done before any discussion has taken place? I am very disappointed that this has happened. I will certainly not start an edit war but I think you had better refresh your yourself on the principles of etiquette and of consensus. I have started the discussion, but you have not contributed and simply acted unilaterally without consideration and without proper discussion or consensus. I still feel that the 64-bit edition has significant issues (advantages, disadvantages, problems) that may not be properly addressed in the condensed article and would be better presented in a seperate article. I hope you will take your time and reflect on your actions. --Triwbe (talk) 20:02, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
- Write them into this article, then, and if you come up with enough content to merit splitting it into a separate article, then we can split it off. Speaking as someone who has worked on Windows Vista articles on Wikipedia for two and a half years, I can pretty much guarantee that you won't be able to find a significant amount of content on the issue. Either trust me on that, or prove me wrong with a significant amount of well-sourced, neutral content that doesn't engage in original research. Thanks. -/- Warren 20:15, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
You do not have to quote your experience, I checked you out as I am sure you did me :-) But I do not need to trust you. As I said, I am not bothered and will leave the merge as it is. I am not a main contributer, just tyding up and checking. But please try to remember the correct procedures. If there has been previous discussions on this subject (perhaps archived) then you should let us know.
As to its future? I am curious to see. I know I have a lot of questions, but working in a mainly clerical environment I have no professional interest in the 64-bit editions. So my questions would be; who is using it? why? how? what are the problems, and if I have questions I am sure many others do also. Quite a large scope for valid material me thinks. --Triwbe (talk) 20:29, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
I have undid the merge as unwarranted and heavy handed. In my opinion, the "WIndows Vista editions" article was about Vista 32 bits. At best, 64 bits is, even now, an afterthought and a postscript. It needs its own page. As the page creator, I undid the merge. Thank you for your consideration. If you choose, you may contribute some valuable content to the page. --Marcwiki9 (talk) 21:07, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Visual Basic 6 IDE on 64-bit Vista[edit]
The article claims that the Visual Basic 6 IDE does not run on 64-bit Vista. However, the referenced article states only that the IDE will not be supported. That doesn't mean that the IDE will not run. Has anyone actually confirmed that the VB6 IDE will not run under 64-bit Vista or is the statement incorrect? 184.108.40.206 (talk) 00:35, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
The VB6 IDE *does* work in Vista-64. I have used it with Vista-64 Ultimate quite happily. It can be a challenge to get it to install in the first place but it runs once it is there. I think stating that it will not run is misleading. RobChafer (talk) 09:12, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

Comparison Chart[edit]

I propose that Windows 7 editions be merged into Windows Vista and 7 editions. I think that the content of both articles can easily be explained in one, and the articles are of a reasonable size that the merging will not cause any problems as far as article size or undue weight is concerned. Here is an example of what the new article will look like. Please visit Talk:Windows 7 editions#Merger proposal to discuss. --True Tech Talk Time (talk) 16:50, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

Viking soccer playoff bound
October 27, 2012
The two-time defending state champs are ready from round three.
The Viking soccer girls are geared up to defend their state title as regional quarterfinals kickoff. Both the boys and girls teams will host the first round of Northern 1-A playoffs at South Tahoe High School Wednesday.
Winners will advance to semifinals and then regional championships in Elko. The two teams that make the championship match will then move on to state finals in Las Vegas.
Coming off back-to-back state titles, the girls had some big cleats to fill this season. They've stepped up.
As a team, the girls have amassed 94 goals while holding opponents to eight.
They will enter playoffs undefeated in league after a 2-2 tie with Truckee Thursday. The girls boast a 15-1-2 record overall, 7-0-2 record in league and are ranked No. 29 nationally, according to Maxpreps.
Recommended Stories For You
This doesn't mean a trip to Las Vegas is a lock by any means.
"It's a young team compared to the two teams in the past," girls coach Chris DeLeon. "It's going to be really tough even just to get to Vegas because we'll either have to play Truckee or Elko to even get to the northern regional."
The girls have a tough postseason lineup ahead of them. They may face Truckee again, a match up that resulted in two ties earlier this season or it may be Elko.
Elko accounted for the Vikings' only loss during preseason play. The girls enter postseason ranked second behind Elko (9-0).
Leading the Vikings offensive are seniors Brooke King (16 goals) and Brittany Sanchez (13 goals). Jordyn Dion (12 goals), Cassidy Jackson (10 goals) and Brittany Hubberts (10 goals) are also key pieces to the offensive puzzle.
Goals wouldn't happen, however, without support from the midfield, and Brianna Carroll provides that. Carroll (10 assists) along with Dion (8 assists), Jackson (7 assists) and Alisa Caro (6 assists) round out an unstoppable attack.
Behind them all is a defense that has delivered 13 shutouts and held opponents to eight goals. Most of those eight goals have come off free kicks.
"Defenses are never mentioned because they're not scoring," DeLeon said. "But definitely the unsung heroes are those six girls on defense."
Those six girls are Ally King, Jensen Smith, Annie Kate Genasci, Riley Chapman, Sarah Higginbotham and goalkeeper Alejandra Orozco.
