SMF Development > Bug Reports
[4367] GM allowed manage board, can see disallowed board in manageboard.
In group permission I allowed Global Moderator to manage boards.
In my forum there is one board with Allowed Groups all unticked, which means every group including Global Moderator is not allowed to see this board.
When a GM goes to manageboard, he can see that disallowed board listed. Which means he can click modify and tick Global Moderator in Allowed Groups. After which he can enter the disallowed board.
In short:
If a board's Allowed Groups has disallowed a Membergroup, even when that group is allowed to manage board in Membergroup permission, it should not see this board in manageboard list.
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
I see why you think it's a bug, but it isn't.
The ability to manage boards means just that - the ability to manage all boards, which includes access and visibility. If you don't want GMs to be able to change that, don't give them access to it.
If you want it changed, that's a mod request, not a bug.
Indeed, as Arantor says, this is intended. All administrative-type permissions (meaning those in the same group with Manage boards, like Manage members and so on) are global. The idea is that after all if the admin really wants someone to manage boards, then they trust him/her and let him/her do this job fully. (as a simple thought: otherwise not knowing what exists they could also make duplicate boards or who knows what). The permission system is quite complex as it is.
The simple idea is... one should not let an untrusted person manage their boards.
I do understand however, myself, why you may feel it's unexpected. However, for many months, I think I've seen only two cases when people had a very particular need which implied it should be different for their forum... Which may mean that people generally think the permissions system makes sense as it is, in which case we are not going to change the intended design, or not for 2.0 anyway.
Hi Arantor and Norv,
Thanks for sharing the thoughts.
It just came as a surprise today after allowing GM to manage board for some time, while I have a personal board - nothing important in it just some codes such as moving Recent Posts to the top of page, backup of News and Announcements, to do list for the forum, etc.
It'd be nice if there is a warning or reminder by each board's Allowed Groups in future version of SMF. Something like "Unselected groups will still see this board in manageboard if group permission is given to manage boards."
Thanks again.

Tiger Woods deserved more from PGA Tour after Sergio Garcia's racist comment
ABOVE PHOTO: Tiger Woods hits out of a bunker on the 17th hole during practice for the U.S. Open golf tournament at Merion Golf Club, Wednesday, June 12, 2013, in Ardmore, Pa.

By Eric Adelson
ARDMORE, Pa. – Tiger Woods did the game of golf a favor by the way he handled Sergio Garcia's tone deaf and racist joke at his expense.
Unfortunately, the leaders of the sport did nothing in return.
The PGA Tour whiffed in its response to Garcia's "we will serve fried chicken" barb, announcing no punishment where one was clearly needed.
Garcia is sorry – he said so multiple times on Tuesday at Merion Golf Club, where he's preparing for the 113th U.S. Open – but PGA Tour commissioner Tim Finchem should be just as sorry for staying silent on the matter. He was in the room when Garcia dropped his stink bomb last month at an awards dinner.
"We don't comment on player disciplinary matters," said Tour spokeswoman Laura Neal in reply to an emailed question about whether Garcia was sanctioned.
"No comment" is not enough. The game of golf has a long history of unfair treatment toward minorities, notoriously keeping African-American members out of Augusta National until the 1990s. This was an opportunity to show progress, to show awareness.
Opportunity lost.
Just recently, NBA star Roy Hibbert made an off-color comment in a press conference, and he was heavily fined. When Kobe Bryant used a derogatory epithet, he was punished. Commissioner David Stern made it perfectly clear that insensitive remarks will be met with fines or worse, calling Bryant's gay slur "offensive and inexcusable." We are in an era where racist, sexist, and discriminatory remarks are rebuked quickly and forcefully – even when they're intended as humorous.
But apparently not in golf.
Finchem did meet privately with Garcia. "Following our meeting," said European Tour CEO George O'Grady, speaking on behalf of Finchem, "we have accepted his full apology, and we consider the matter closed."
Perhaps a reprimand was dealt. That's not nearly enough, though. Garcia's joke, although made at a private dinner, went viral. The response should be public too. "Behind closed doors" is exactly golf's problem, not its solution. Finchem didn't even follow up on O'Grady's comment that most of Garcia's friends are "colored athletes."
Instead, it was left to Woods and Garcia to address the media. Both did so admirably. Woods could have justifiably skewered Garcia, fueling another news cycle. Instead he said it was time to move on and play golf. Garcia opened his remarks Tuesday by apologizing again. He could have and should have apologized in person on Monday when he saw Woods on the practice range, but he did write Woods a note and he has been public in his expressed contrition. His chief sponsor, TaylorMade, is reviewing its agreement with Garcia, and the golfer is scared (if not scared straight).
The temptation is to move on. And, with such a distinguished tournament about to start on this jewel of a golf course on Thursday, few will complain about placing the game front and center.
But in moving on, the leaders of the sport have set a bad precedent. If the No. 1 player in the game is the victim of a joke like that, and no official word of punishment ever comes, what's the implicit conclusion about the sport's commitment to openness?
Finchem can get away with his silence. Few will call him out, on or off the course. ESPN's Bob Harig and the Boston Globe's Michael Whitmer both demanded punishment for Garcia. But that's hardly a groundswell of an objection.
The shame of the situation was brought into high relief Tuesday when a reporter for The Trentonian, L.A. Parker, sat in the front row and told Garcia his words were "stinging" not just because of the affront to a minority golfer, but also to himself and other African-Americans who love golf.
Garcia said he felt the weight of the responsibility. He took the charge seriously. "I can obviously see that I hurt a lot of people," he said. Yet Parker is still quite upset not only at the situation, but at Finchem.
"Finchem should have done a better job with this," Parker said. "Is he serious about this or not?"
Parker rightly pointed out that this controversy has become wholly about the two men involved – Woods and Garcia. It's become a soap opera – a diversion from a deeper problem. Will they be paired together over the weekend? Will animosity linger? Will we see the aftereffects in their individual games?
Enough of that. The two men have done a great deal publicly to put the incident behind them. Woods deserves to focus on his game, and Garcia, despite his abhorrent comments, should be taken at his contrite word. (Though a face-to-face apology would still be appropriate.)
The Tour? It did nothing to protect its modern pioneer, the man who has lined everyone's pockets and kept the game from the fringes of irrelevance. It made no sound when it should have been screaming that it would make the sport a discrimination-free zone for minorities of all backgrounds.
This week is a celebration of accessible golf: Merion is located a short train ride from one of the most diverse cities in the nation. Simply by holding the U.S. Open here, the USGA took a step closer to making the sport approachable for those living far from gated communities and fenced-in pools.
The sport is better because the U.S. Open is here. The sport is better because Tiger Woods is here.
The sport should also be better from this racist incident. Sadly, it's not.

Yucky English Training School
Job Description
We would love to hear from anyone interested in teaching English in a small, well-resourced school located in Blowhole, a prefecture in eastern Guizhou Province, located in southwest China.
If you are an outgoing person and would like to teach children, please join our school as a foreign teacher. We offer full-time teaching positions. Foreign teachers should have between 15 and 20 teaching hours per week, with a minimum of 50 teaching hours per month. Foreign teachers are paid 100 RMB per class.
Your students are between five and seventeen years old. English skills range from nonexistent to advanced, depending on each student's age and ability. Classes consist of a maximum of 26 children within three years age of each other. Students regularly have Yucky English classes twice a week with their Chinese English teachers.
Teaching Requirements
1. Your teaching role is to review and improve material previously taught by the students' Chinese teacher. The
Chinese teacher explains class material to students prior to your class. You encourage continued learning and
improved pronunciation by reviewing the material and then using the material for games. Your main task is to
encourage the students to practice speaking and listening in English. You help correct students' pronunciation and
create conversational English inspired from the textbooks.
Chinese teachers provide teaching plans for each class detailing the units and concepts you are required to review.
Teaching must be exercised in a playful manner. Be prepared to dance, sing, and make a fool of yourself. The Yucky method of teaching English to small children relies heavily on gestures and body language. You are required to learn the gestures, songs, and chants prior to each class.
The favored method of teaching is by playing games. The use of picture cards, videos, and singing is preferred. You are required to play educational games with the students for half of your class time. You determine what games or activities work best for each lesson and class.
2. Foreigner teachers have many different classes, and they meet with individual classes once every two or three weeks. For example, in a three-week cycle, you will meet once with 45 or more different classes.
3. On Friday evenings, for one hour, you are required to participate in English Corner. Children come with their parents to practice their English speaking skills. You are paid for one half hour (50 RMB) for each English Corner.
4. Every Friday afternoon, you are required to attend all-school meetings that generally last one hour. You are not paid for this time. These meetings are the only time that all Yucky staff are in the same room – teachers, administrative staff, etc.
5. Your normal working hours are as follows:
• All day on Saturdays and Sundays, up to seven classes each day
• Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings, with one or two classes each evening (you have your days to yourself)
• Wednesdays, all day trips to branch schools (see point 6)
• You may or may not have a day or two off once per week, depending on the three-week cycle and number of foreign teachers currently at Yucky
• At the end of each semester, there is about one week of intensive teaching, with multiple classes per day for multiple days
6. Weekly one-day trips out of Blowhole to teach at Yucky branch schools in nearby towns will be required. Each town is about one and a half hours away from Blowhole. You leave Blowhole around 10 am and return between 8 and 10 pm. You will teach two classes and possibly an English Corner. The school pays for transportation, and lunch and dinner is usually provided. You generally take a bus or taxi for to and from each city.
7. Teachers are expected to act in a kind and professional manner. Working with children can be stressful, especially for the foreign teachers. There is usually not a Chinese teacher in the foreign teacher's class, except during the training period and when requested by the foreign teacher. To be a successful teacher to these young kids, you must be able to bring a smile and a playful attitude to each new class. Adaptability and creativity is a must!
8. Five levels of English courses are handled in this school:
• Play Way to English is for children between five and eight years old.
• Cambridge Young Learners English is for children between nine and eleven years old.
• Super Kids is for children between eight and twelve years old.
• New Concept English is for students twelve and older.
• A new kindergarten program recently opened. You may be required to teach a few classes a month for 30 minutes to three or four year olds. The kindergarten teachers are present with each class. These classes are taught during the daytime during the week.
9. Foreign teachers must also attend trainings as required and school promotional opportunities as they arise.
10. A one-year (two semesters) teaching commitment is required. Semesters run September through January and February through July. You have about one month between Fall and Spring Semesters for Spring Festival (Chinese New Year) and about one month off for the summer break.
Other requirements of you upon arrival:
• Medical Exam – Upon your arrival in Blowhole, you are required to complete a medical exam. Per Chinese government guidelines, any medical exam from your home country is not valid once you arrive in China.
The school assists with the arrangements, but you are required to pay the medical cost, about 300 RMB.
This cost is deducted from your first salary payment.
• Insurance – The Chinese government now requires medical and emergency insurance of all foreigners. The school handles all paperwork for the policy, but you are required to pay the policy cost, approximately 600 RMB. This is cost is deducted from your first salary payment.
What Yucky and Blowhole Offer Blowhole has approximately 250,000 people, but because of the high-density housing, it takes about an hour to walk across town. Blowhole is a rural city in the Karst Mountains with little Western influence. The countryside is a 10- minute bike ride out of town. The city is pedestrian friendly and inexpensive. There are few non-Chinese restaurants, and the nearest McDonalds is a five-hour bus ride away in Guiyang, the provincial capital.
Foreigners are not a common sight for local people. Older people will often stare, and children will point and giggle.
Foreigners are low in number; perhaps three at Yucky with four Peace Corps volunteers in a local university. The large expatriate communities found in larger cities is lacking in Blowhole.
Most people do not speak English but are generally very friendly and want to help you. Many people speak the local dialect that is different from the standard Mandarin Chinese.
This position is very rewarding for someone who wants to experience the real China. Unlike Shanghai, Chengdu, or Beijing, Blowhole has few places that will seem just like your home country. The language and cultural situation provides many benefits, but it also poses many challenges. An open mind and willingness to try new things go a long way. Please note these things when considering this position.
Yucky provides the following to its foreign teachers:
• Accommodation – You live in an apartment provided by the school in Blowhole. You are about 25 minutes away from the school on foot, about 10 by bus and 5 by taxi. Your apartment includes basics like a television, DVD player, refrigerator, basic furniture, shower, kitchen tools, etc. The school pays your monthly rent.
• Utilities – the school pays 100 RMB per month for phone, electricity and water. The foreign teacher pays for costs over 100 RMB. This balance is generally taken out of your monthly salary.
• Travel – The school arranges an optional two- or three-day trip around the local province every six months, all expenses paid.
• Holiday – During your holiday breaks (winter and summer, depending on when you arrive), you are paid 1,000 RMB.
• Return Flight – At the end of your contract, the school provides a subsidy of 6,000 RMB for your return flight ticket. You are responsible for your flight to China and travel to Blowhole at the beginning of your contract.
• Salary/Teaching Hours – You are paid on a monthly basis, at the end of each month. Foreign teachers should have between 15 and 20 teaching hours per week, with a minimum of 50 teaching hours per month.
Foreign teachers are paid 100 RMB per class. While you are paid 100 RMB for each class, Yucky withholds 20 RMB per class that is paid out at the end of your contract. (Effectively, if you screw up during your contract or get into any dispute with the employer, you ain't getting back the withheld salary!)
• Other – Yucky can help you find activities in your new home. You can be provided with a Chinese tutor to learn Mandarin Chinese for four hours a week in a learning partnership where the foreign teacher also helps the Chinese teacher improve his or her Engligh. The school can organize other activities – calligraphy, Kong Fu, or Chinese cooking lesson – but the foreign teacher must pay the tuition/costs for these lessons. The costs vary by activity but are generally 100 to 200 RMB per month.
Application Requirements
Potential applicants need:
• At least a BS or BA; TESOL-trained teacher preferred but not essential
• Teaching experience is an advantage
• Some Chinese language skills are an advantage but not essential
• A valid passport from one of the following: USA, Republic of Ireland, The United Kingdom, Commonwealth of Australia, New Zealand or Canada
• Ability to commit to at least a one-year contract
To apply, please scan the following:
• Valid Passport Page
• Letter of Recommendation
• Medical Physical
• Resume or CV
• College/University Diploma
OK, this is just an awful deal, but what's dodgy about it?
The main rub comes here, in the clause about pay:
"Foreign teachers are paid 100 RMB per class. While you are paid 100 RMB for each class, Yucky withholds 20 RMB per class that is paid out at the end of your contract."
In other words, they will withhold 20% of your pay and keep it until the end of your contract, paying it to you only if you finish your contract (and of course, schools can find many ways to make sure you don't finish your contract...) and you play nice and they just decide they really want to. THIS IS AN OPEN INVITATION TO GET RIPPED OFF! NEVER take a deal like this!

But but but, the kindly school managers are just being nice and saving your money for you so you don't blow it all on hookers and booze. Everyone knows foreigners can't be trusted with their own money.
Jeez. Some teachers are so cynical, always willing to believe the worst.
Plus, you get to experience the real China! Isn't that great!?!

Agh, why don't they at least frame it as "
hourly pay is 80RMB, but a further bonus of XXXXXRMB is payable upon completion of the full term of your contract
" or something...sounds a lot less dodgy and threatening that way, because I mean maybe they just genuinely have had problems with teacher's disappearing for no good reason...

"3 times a week you are required to bend over, drop 'em and take it like a man. To ensure you don't go quitting on us like a big baby, we will hold back 50% of your salary until the end of the year. The money will be given to you after all staff have reviewed your performance during these 'training sessions' and rated their satisfaction with you. In the case of incomplete satisfaction we retain the right to permanently withold the money from you. We will show you where to buy lube, but you must pay for it yourself. We will show you where to buy toys, but you must pay for them yourself. If you come to a training session without either lube or toys, we reserve the right to withold 99% of your remainng pay. Weekly training sessions last 3hrs (we've got over 40 staff) but we will pay you for half an hour at the usual rate, 5 yuan."

If you read point 7, it states that this job is going to be very stressful as you will be alone with a class full of kindy kids (max 26) without teaching assistant!
Well, I can understand if you have a very small class and without any assistant is fine, but a large class? For the children's safety, wouldn't it be necessary to have teaching assistants around?

No I don't think it's "illegal", only immoral. My son attended Chinese kindergarten in Shanghai, and that was pretty much the ratio. However, it was tended by an experienced Chinese teacher, and run like a stalag. A foreigner with limited, or even decent, Chinese would get murdered. Chinese xiao wangs do pretty much what they like.

Actually,Chinese law regarding kindergarten classes states a class should have no more than 35 kids, and there should be 3 adults in the class at all times. Two teachers, and a "caregiver."
Not that all kindies adhere to this (TIFC), but that's what the government considers reasonable. And of course, that's for actual kindergartens, not for dodgy training schools, which I'm sure are totally unregulated.

We were all wide-eyed innocents ready to willingly throw ourselves into the meat grinder once. This one isn't as dodgy as some, but it's got the types of built in traps that incipient FTs need to be warned about.

Alpha Keri bath & Cortaid
I found this address on a website and thought a suggestion I have may help people struggling with hand eczema. I have used Alpha Keri bath oil for years. It totally relieves the burning and itching . . . soothes and takes the red out. It has been a lifesaver as I have had eczema since my early 20s. A dermatologist suggested the bath oil. My hands were in horrible shape the first time I had an appointment. He soaked my hands in this and immediately I thought I'd died and gone to Heaven! It may not work for everyone, but using it along with Cortaid has worked for me for years. I work with babies so my hands are wet all of the time. I'm not able to use the Alpha Keri creams for some reason. They don't help me at all. I just wanted to suggest this as I am living proof that it works. . . . I keep it with me wherever I go!

Few marvels are as modern as the fantastic array of electronic devices interwoven into our everyday lives. See how, in just a few decades, they've gone from non-existent to ubiquitous.
- For over a decade, MODERN MARVELS has brought grand stories to life.
- The ultimate celebration and investigation of engineering excellence.
- For sheer processing power, today's kid's toys rival the original supercomputers
Celebrating ingenuity, invention and imagination brought to life on a grand scale, MODERN MARVELS® tells the fascinating stories of the doers, dreamers and sometime-schemers who created everyday items, technological breakthroughs and man-made wonders.
Track the very modern history of digital technology from the first high-speed electronic computer of the 1940s, used to calculate cannon trajectories, to today's alphabet soup of personal tech: DVD, CD, PDA, HDTV, PVR. We can't imagine our current lives without these devices, yet just thirty years ago personal computing, much less pocket computing, was almost as rare as private space flight today.
In those early days, no-one could foresee where DIGI-TECH would take us. This episode of MODERN MARVELS gazes into the crystal ball and visits places like MIT's Media Lab to see what wonders our rapidly approaching future holds.
Look back, look forward, look sharp, with MODERN MARVELS: DIGI-TECH!

Hawaii's governor announced Wednesday that Lt. Gov. Brian Schatz will fill the seat left vacant by the death of longtime U.S. Sen. Daniel Inouye.
Democratic Gov. Neil Abercrombie chose Schatz three days after the funeral for Inouye, 88.
Inouye, a Democrat, won his ninth consecutive term in 2010 and was the second-longest-serving senator in the chamber's history.
Inouye had recommended U.S. Rep. Colleen Hanabusa as his replacement in a letter shortly before he died.

Soldiers killed in Turkey helicopter crash
Pilot flew in foggy conditions
Seventeen military personnel died in a helicopter crash in Turkey, state media reported Saturday.
The Sikorsky-type helicopter, which was carrying soldiers to an operation, crashed in Pervari district, in Turkey's southeastern Siirt province, official broadcaster TRT said.
The military helicopter is believed to have plowed into a mountain because of fog, the broadcaster said.
Four of those killed were crew members, the other 13 soldiers, the semi-official Anadolu Agency cited Siirt governor Ahmet Aydin as saying.
The governor stressed that the crash was caused by poor weather conditions, not a terrorist attack, the news agency said.
Turkey's military has been combating a long-running insurgency by Kurdish militants in the southeast of the country.
The conflict has claimed more than 30,000 lives over the past three decades.

UK lawmakers took a big step Tuesday toward legalizing same-sex marriage, an issue that has prompted widespread rebellion within Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservative Party.
In a 400-175 vote, MPs approved the second reading of a bill legalizing such marriage, indicating a significant majority of members support the measure. However, it must go through several more stages before it can become law.
The bill faces another vote in the House of Commons and a vote in the House of Lords.
Before Tuesday's vote, three top party members appealed to Conservative MPs to get behind the controversial legislation in a letter published in the Telegraph newspaper.
The letter, signed by Chancellor George Osborne, Foreign Secretary William Hague and Home Secretary Theresa May, said that passing the bill is "the right thing to do at the right time."
The institution of marriage has evolved over time, the letter said, while "attitudes towards gay people have changed."
In a direct appeal to fellow party members, the trio added: "We believe that opening it up to same-sex couples will strengthen, not weaken, the institution. As David Cameron has said, we should support gay marriage not in spite of being Conservatives, but because we are Conservatives."
Their attitude was echoed by Kate Green, a Labour MP, during debate. Tuesday's reading was the first opportunity for lawmakers in the House of Commons to debate the bill in detail.
"By recognizing and extending the definition of marriage to reflect today's greater openness towards, and recognition of, same-sex relationships, the legislation does not weaken the institution of marriage. On the contrary, it takes it forward, it strengthens it. It helps to perpetuate it," she said.
The legislation passed the House of Commons with the support of lawmakers from Labour and the Liberal Democrats. The latter are in a coalition government with the Conservatives.
As drafted, the bill would enable religious organizations to choose to conduct same-sex marriages if they wish and includes provisions intended to make sure no religious organization or person is forced to do so.
The Church of England is among the religious bodies opposed to the legislation.
The bill would also allow same-sex couples to convert a civil partnership to a marriage and enable married transsexual people to gain legal recognition in their acquired gender without having to end their marriages.
A law recognizing civil partnerships in England and Wales was passed in 2004.
Tony and Barrie Drewitt-Barlow, who are already same-sex civil partners and have five children together, told CNN that it was important to them to be able to marry in front of their fellow churchgoers.
"We want to be able to go into our local parish church, where we are practicing Christians, and under the eyes of the Lord, get married," said Barrie Drewitt-Barlow.
"I don't want to go in front of a vicar or priest who doesn't want to do it; it's supposed to be the happiest day of my life. I want to be really happy and joyous when I get married to the man that I've been together with for 25 years."
His partner, Tony, said it was a question of equality.
"Marriage is all about the union of two people that love each other and want to bind that love in a relationship that lasts forever. And for me, it's about having that right for everybody, gay, straight or bisexual," he said.
"Whatever you are, if you love that person, then you should have the rights to be joined in matrimony with them."

You know what, we won't even go through the drill of expressing surprise that a new major version of Firefox is released on a nearly-monthly basis. Mozilla released Firefox 8.0, about 7 months after it released Firefox 4.0. And they look similar, except that the new one looks more polished. Granted, drastic UI changes can hit users' learning curve and preferences. The new UI sports essentially the same layout as its predecessors since version 4.0, but the elements look designed better, fused into the theme. It's the under-the-hood changes that are counting. Mozilla would never pack so many background changes to the monthly updates of Firefox 3. DOWNLOAD: Mozilla Firefox 8.0 With this release, Mozilla Firefox has the following changes over the previous generation: Add-ons installed by third party programs are now disabled by default Added a one-time add-on selection dialog to manage previously installed add-ons Added Twitter to the search bar for select locales. Additional locale support will be added in the future Added a preference to load tabs on demand, improving start-up time when windows are restored Improved performance and memory handling when using and elements Added CORS support for cross-domain textures in WebGL Added support for HTML5 context menus Added support for insertAdjacentHTML Improved CSS hyphen support for many languages Improved WebSocket support Fixed several stability issues Fixed several security issues
Perhaps I'm just odd- but I REALLY REALLY HATE how they have removed the windows title bar - The whole top of the program is now one giant border-less amorphous grey blob and it looks forking horrible.
It's just following what the web-pages are doing, have you seen the new Gmail? They call it 'modern', It doesn't look modern, just worse then the old one Hint to all these new UI's coming out Buttons have Edges's not only so you can tell where they are, but also because it looks better
I don't seem to have that issue. Not sure whether I've turned it off, or whether it's a 7 only thing. http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e316/blibba/Untitled-7.jpg Agreed. New Gmail looks amateurish.
Google Readers done the same, it's a bit of topic but since it's a firefox thead, does anyone know an add-on that'll change it back on Firefox?, or chrome?
for the love of god! they need to stop updating new releases and fix the older and bigger bugs first!!!!!
I LOL'd at that. Everyone is still trying for a good compromise between overly ostentatious and overly minimalistic. One of these days they may find it ... or not.
i want to switch to firefox but i reallllly like my new tab page in chrome where it shows my 8 most visited webpages and they are just a click away. does anyone know of a plug-in that does this but actually looks natural, i've seen a couple but they look like crap.
Thanks bta, I've just installed the latest meh update to Firefox... and it looks just like Firefox 7.
I like all of the updates- I just dont like how fast they get rolled out. Normally, I like constant updates for software but not in the case with my browser I use RoboForm and it constantly breaks because of this. good thing I dont use addons anymore or I would really be annoyed
im sorry but i have no need for firefox, its slow and has issues. Chrome hasn't given me one issue, and i really do like those 8 recently visited tabs, i use them all the time. it also looks cleaner. Everything is how I like it. The only, and ONLY thing i have ever found a good use of firefox for are its plugins, like ones for downloading multiple files links, like 40+ at once. Otherwise chrome is much faster, and IE doesn't have any issues with certain sites.
And that is why I swapped to opera when FF4 came out. I cant stand a bad gui. Every time I look around, programs and websites I use are changing their gui and making it awful.
I hope they fixed the 'FireFox plugin Canister has Crashed" issue and the "FireFox is already running but not responding you may have to close FireFox or Restart your Computer" Issue....I could go on but I think I'll just check it out...

- Product Details
Subaru WRX STI 2008-2009, Sport Drilled Rear Rotors (33S50192) by Brembo®. 316 x 20mm (12.44" x 0.79") Rotors. These are OEM-sized rear rotors with drilled holes that provide the best venting of heat while also effectively removing brake dust, gasses, and water. High-carbon iron resists heat, warping, and hairline cracks between holes and delivers superior stopping power. Pillared center posts provide faster cool-off.
- Set of two rear disc brake rotors
- Sport series signifies identical sizing to OEM rotors for easy, bolt-on replacement without any need for modifications
- Drilled holes provide better venting of heat, brake dust, gasses, and they effectively remove water off rotor surfaces
- Rotors cool 20% faster due to center vent areas that contain spaced pillars instead of straight slats
- Rotors are crafted from iron with high carbon content which achieves reduced vibration and squealing noise
- Rotors provide a higher grip coefficient and slower wear rate
- Rotors are more resistant to heating up and becoming warped
- Lower operating temperatures greatly reduce fade that results from brake fluid reaching boiling temperature in the lines
- Brake pad life is typically extended by 20% due to these rotors maintaining a smoother, more even surface
- Rotors are zinc plated for corrosion protection on all non-contact areas
- 2-year manufacturer limited warranty
Brembo Sport Drilled Rear Rotors are created for use with your original equipment brake calipers, and will bolt on easily without the need for modifications of any sort. Without replacing any other components, you'll enjoy a higher level of braking power that is progressive and easy to use around town. You will also find cross-drilled holes boost braking performance in the rain and at higher speeds when temperatures increase. Plus, their iron content formulated with a high amount of carbon allows these rotors to vibrate and squeal less, making them quieter and more pleasing to use. Their construction gives them a longer lifespan because of a slower wear rate, and because of features that allow them to run at lower temperatures while getting rid of heat faster.
The high-carbon iron resists temperature buildup better initially, and vented centers with a patented design disperse the heat in a superior fashion. Instead of straight fins between both rotor sides, Brembo rotors contain spaced pillars which result in more metal contact. Tests show these pillars allow the rotors to cool from 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit to 212 degrees 20 percent faster - virtually eliminating the likelihood of cracks forming between drilled holes. Brembo warrants to the original user that these brake discs are free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 2 years from the date of purchase.
479.75Brand: Brembo Part Number: 33S50192In its 50 years of existence, Brembo® has secured a prestigious place for itself in the automotive braking system sector. This position can only be held through continuous innovation in products and services, maintaining the highest possible quality levels, offering competitive prices and focusing the utmost attention on safety, individual and public health and respect for the environment. The group's Quality, Safety and Environment policy expresses Brembo's commitment to client satisfaction and ongoing improvement.
