E4D CAD/CAM restorations: Dental Crowns, Inlays and Onlays
When you have a tooth that has been damaged by decay, disease or injury, you can restore its function and beauty by applying a dental crown, inlay or onlay. In the last decade or so, rapid advancements in dental technology and material science have raised the bar of these types of treatments, whether in terms of aesthetic quality, speed or efficacy. The E4D CAD/CAM solution is a great example.
What is E4D?
The E4D CAD/CAM system is regarded as an innovation that takes dentistry to the next level. Combining cutting edge dentistry, dental imaging and CAD/CAM technology, E4D offers patients uncompromising standards in modern restorative treatments. E4D restorations are digitally designed and fabricated through a computer aided milling process, offering higher precision and stronger, tooth-like materials.
E4D's effective and streamlined digital process saves you time and money by allowing same-day restorations – completed within a single dental appointment.
Dental crown
A dental crown is essentially a tooth shaped cap that is placed over an existing tooth to restore its function and appearance. A dental crown is usually recommended when your tooth has been substantially damaged such that a regular filling is unable to provide the structural stability the tooth requires to properly function.
Besides reinforcing the strength of your tooth, a dental crown is able to repair its function while making your repaired tooth look healthy and shiny. A permanent crown may be used to repair decayed teeth, replace defective fillings or restore broken or fractured teeth.
What are inlays and onlays?
Inlays and onlays are typically bigger than a dental filling, while smaller as compared to a dental crown. The difference between an inlay and onlay is that the former is specifically set within the cusps of the chewing surface of the tooth, while the latter covers a larger surface, as it can replace one or more cusps.
The inlay is typically used to repair damage in the cusp surface structure of back teeth or as replacement for old/damaged amalgam fillings. The inlay provides a more effective seal when bonded into position, as compared to an amalgam filling.
An onlay is utilised when the tooth damage is too extensive for an inlay to be effective. The damage may be caused by decay or loss of a large filling. An onlay can absorb more chewing force than a regular filling.
E4D treatment procedures
With Dr Jena Ward BoralH(DentSci) GradDipDent (Hons 1st Class) BSc
The E4D CAD/CAM Solution is known to provide what is popularly called "same day dentistry". As the name suggests, it is possible to prepare, fabricate and place an E4D dental crown, inlay or onlay during the same dental appointment.
Using laser-scanning technology, the E4D Dentist System is able to capture the optical impression of tooth preparations and transmit the data into 3D CAD (computer-aided design) software to design the restoration. Next, it utilizes CAM (computer-aided milling) technology to mill the restoration from monolithic blocks of porcelain or composite.
A traditional restorative treatment involving a crown, inlay or onlay typically requires at least two appointments and a long waiting period in between. The first appointment is for tooth preparation and the other to fit the restoration.
The treatment begins with an examination, during which a digital impression of your tooth is taken with an optical scanner and entered into a 3D CAD system. The digital impression is then used to create a virtual model of your crown, inlay or onlay. At this juncture, it is also possible to determine the exact shape, colour as well as biting/chewing surface of your restoration.
The design is then transmitted wirelessly to a CAM unit in the dentist's office. Within approximately 20 minutes, the CAD/CAM restoration may be completely milled and fabricated. Patients can choose from different types of materials including porcelain and composite.
In clinically suitable cases, the E4D process allows the preparation of the restoration to be digitally recorded with a CAD/CAM camera. The digital blueprint may then be used to design and mill the prosthesis, while you are still reclined in the dental chair. That means the entre process, from preparation to fit to test and polish, all take place in a single appointment, saving you time and money.
With E4D CAD/CAM dentistry, you no longer need to visit the dentist on multiple appointments for the same treatment. When appropriate, your crown, inlay or onlay restorations can be designed, created and cemented on the same day. Same day dentistry also eliminates the need for temporaries, because there is no long waiting period between the tooth preparation and the fitting session. That also means any concerns regarding tooth sensitivity during the interim period – that requires the wearing of the temporary restoration – are no longer valid.

This is a mean-spirited and vulgar heap of crapola with just a few minor successful gags. Stars Jim Carrey and René Zellweger deserve far better than this Farrelly Brothers mess which comes no where near to their successful Something About Mary in humor or charm.
Carrey plays Charlie, a sweet Rhode Island state cop who marries his sweetheart and then promptly gets beat up by the black Mensa-minded midget who's chauffering them back to their house. The wife falls in love with the macho midget and dumps Charlie but not before she delivers a set of black triplets. Charlie raises the boys as his own and they grow and prosper into jive-talking geniuses, just like their dear old real Dad while they debate which Ivy-league school they're going to attend. This is the best gag in the film if you stomach their non-stop filthy mouthed talk.
After years of being the town's laughing stock and doormat, Charlie snaps and becames a schizo maniac by the name of Hank who'll take no guff from anyone. He's crude, rude and talks in a Clint Eastwood style whisper that isn't even as clear as Eastwood's. Charlie/Hank gets a psych evaluation and is put on medication and ordered to take a leave of absence which will begin right after he delivers a suspect back to New York. That would be Irene (Zellweger) who seems to be caught up in some scam involving her former boyfriend, the EPA, the FBI and a slew of cops, including Charlie and his crazed alter ego Hank.
Lotta says Carrey is in his prime with that rubbery face and body of his but the film just doesn't deliver beyond that. Also features Chris Cooper as Lieutenant Gerke and Robert Forster as Colonel Partington.

Help I Think I Might be Co-dependent!
Amanda A.
Learning from Abandonment
Now Im on the other side of the shock and hurt, Im in the analysis stage, where Im trying to work out what went wrong, how did I get into this situation in the first place and how do I make sure that it doesn't happen again.
I spent my marriage caretaking my husband. It is obvious to me now that he is a functioning alcoholic he works in a fly in, fly out job, two weeks on, two weeks off, so I dont know what he does when he is at work, but for the two weeks that he was at home he would drink ten to fifteen cans of beer per day, plus bourbon. It is incredible when I look back on it now that I accepted this behaviour as normal. On top of the alcohol he had a packet a day, cigarette habit. No wonder we were always broke! So my question to myself is what on earth was I doing getting involved with someone who clearly had huge addiction issues? The answer came to me after a lot of Googling it is called co-dependency.
Co-dependent people often have grown up in an environment where they have learnt to keep the peace and avoid confrontation. In families where abuse, violence or other dysfunctional behaviour exists, children learn that to get their needs met, they need to surrender themselves. In order for the child to feel safe or valued, they must conform to parental expectations. The child learns to give up their authentic self to avoid the repercussions of their parent flying into a rage, for example. The child becomes a people pleaser, caretaker, rescuer, an over-achiever or some other personality role and in the process loses touch with who they really are. The child then grows into an adult who continues these patterns of behaviour they become the person that they think that others want them to be in order to avoid rejection and abandonment.
The concept of co-dependency explains a lot about how I behaved in my marriage and why I was attracted to a man with such huge issues. His first wife had left him because of his drinking, but I turned a blind eye and believed his version of events. When I look back I can see that even his family tried to warn me, but I think I was so hell bent on rescuing him, I chose not to listen. I think his family actually hoped for a while there that maybe I could fix him, until he decided to sail off in to the sunset with his affair partner.
I have a tendency to want to look after people and solve all their problems and so I took him on along with the responsibility for paying bills, car servicing, putting the bins out and all the other mundane tasks so that he could just drink, smoke and indulge his Internet porn addiction. By caretaking him I removed the consequences of his behaviour I paid off credit cards that he ran up, I paid speeding fines, I paid his child support arrears with my tax refund, I gave him a generous amount of pocket money each week in an effort to keep on top of his reckless spending and so on. I never gave him the opportunity to experience the cost of his addictions because I was protecting him from himself. Alcoholism is a disease and I enabled the disease to progress by managing the fallout from his behaviour. I was under a huge amount of stress and I felt anxious all the time. I dreaded the phone ringing, in case it was the Child Support Agency or a credit card company wanting money. He never had to deal with any of it because I shielded him; in fact he told the Child Support Agency that he wanted me to be his representative so he didn't have to deal with it. I resented his first wife for a long time because he blamed all our financial woes on the fact that he had to pay child support. I can now see the amount of money that he spent on alcohol and cigarettes and, in the later stages of the marriage, on flowers and hotel rooms for the other woman, was a lot more than the child support ever was. I should never have had to take any of this on board but I did because of my co-dependency. He was dependent on alcohol and I was dependent on him being dependent on alcohol. My co-dependent self was saying, I will look after everything and maintain the status quo, and you keep drinking. In return please dont ever reject or abandon me.
By taking control, I disempowered him (and me) and it makes sense that he went searching for another woman who would be taken in by his narcissistic over confidence, just as I was at the beginning. He needed to seek validation, attention and admiration from somewhere else because I was so busy trying to keep everything going, I was too exhausted to tell him how wonderful he was. And deep down inside, the authentic me was there somewhere, resenting the fact that co-dependency had taken over my life. I didn't respect him anymore but I was too scared to confront him in case he abandoned me. I was a shell of a person with nothing left to give. The cycle will continue, with the new woman juggling the finances to enable him to maintain his alcohol habit, as I did and as his first wife did. As long as there is someone to bail him out, he will never have to face the consequences of his actions. The thing is that he is not my problem anymore and as long as I allow him to take up space in my head, I am not focusing on me. He needs to take responsibility for himself and I need to focus on getting to know me.
All change happens for a reason and you may not see it at the time but it usually is for the better. Life is an evolutionary process in which you learn and become wiser as you go through each experience. I no longer need to take responsibility for anyone apart from myself and from now on the focus is completely on me. I no longer feel anxious all the time, I am looking after myself, physically and mentally, and I am about to start a new job this week which I am excited about. At 52 years of age, I am finding out who I actually am, and I really like that person. I have spent a lifetime directing energy towards taking responsibility for other people and now that energy is going into me. I go to the gym, a decent hairdresser, bushwalking and I am revisiting the creative side of me through all sorts of different projects. In short, I am my new best friend!

So a week ago today, I returned from a well overdue (and definitely needed!) holiday in Mexico with my boyfriend. There is something about having a holiday planned for this time of the year. You are not only able to have something to look forward to throughout the year, but you can also cling onto the last bit of warmth and daylight before the winter months settle in.
We stayed in Riviera Maya for two weeks at the Sensimar Seaside Suites & Spa. My boyfriend and I wanted to really make this holiday special since it was our first holiday together! (Plus with having the intentions to move out from still living at home, we knew that we might not be able to afford it for a little while after!) It was an amazing resort with the sea within close reach which also included free to use kayaking gear and snorkelling equipment. It was perfect for Scott whilst I could sit in the sun with a book!
So two weeks on a long haul holiday, how do you keep the balance between relaxing but exploring? This was something that Scott and I debated about even before we left for our flight to Mexico. The last thing we wanted was to come home and feel like we had done so much that actually, we felt like we didn't have a getaway at all. Neither of us had been to Mexico before too, which made us feel like newbies in the world of excursions and exploring! We had actually stumbled across someone on the beach who also promoted excursions to tourists rather than just relying on TUI. Not that there is a right or wrong way to book and plan your holiday. This is how we chose to fulfil our holiday. After conversing with him we knew that for the kind of things we wanted to do were best booked through him. We decided to book the excursions as we went along with the holiday rather than all at once for the time that we were there.
If you want culture if you're planning to visit mexico yourself, I would really recommend you visit a temple. The 3 you'll come across when doing some research will be Chichen Itza, Tulum, and Coba. Depending on what kind of activity you expect from your day, pick wisely. As of recent, Coba is the only temple you are allowed to truly explore and physically touch. Whereas Chichen Itza (being classed as one of the new Seven Wonders of the World - a definite must if this is something on your list of things to do!) and Tulum are now a little more restrictive to preserve and protect the land. Either way though, i'm sure you will find the experience as educating about the Mayans as I did. We were also fortunate enough to explore Mayan land not only on foot, but kayaking, swimming in cenotes, zip-lining and abseiling. Not forgetting a spot of lunch with traditional Mayan food with the locals.
Dolphin Discovery was the second excursion on our list of things to do. It was an amazing day of not only swimming and interacting with Dolphins, but we also got to swim with Manatees and Sea Lions (er my new favourite animal!). Swimming with dolphins has always been that type of activity that I never really feel like its the morally right thing to be doing. I had an experience before when on holiday with my mum in Cuba. We went swimming with dolphins but they were effectively in what seemed like a metal cage in the sea. Nothing was obviously wrong with the dolphins, but it really played on my mind that they were in there. This on the other hand felt completely different, those thoughts never even crossed my mind once we arrived!
The interaction we had with all of the animals was fun and really good! You could also tell these animals were loved, nurtured and definitely well fed. Something that made the day even more enjoyable. Other than falling in love with sea lions, a highlight of my day was being able to float around in the water with manatees and feed them endless amounts of lettuce! I'm sure I was a manatee in a previous life... Their agendas are basically sleep and eat!
Finally Xel-Ha (pronounced like shell-ha) was our last trip. It's a natural aquarium in which you can snorkel through rivers/mangroves, swim with stingrays, interact with dolphins and experience true exhilaration with Adrenalina. Sea water meets natural river water as your snorkel and experience life under the surface and swim with the sea life. There is so much you can do within the water park, including a few optional extras on the side (at an extra cost). We chose to experience the Adrenalina water boat ride and also an attraction called Sea Trek between our ventures in the water around Xel-Ha.
In all honesty there are so many things you can do when staying in the area of Riviera Maya. I wish we had the time and money(!) to be able to do it all. The benefit of this though is that if we were to ever visit Mexico again in the future, there would be different excursions for us to experience. Besides, why would you spend a lot of money to also spend no time at the hotel? More of a reason to grab my self a bevvy, grab my book and relax in the sun either by the pool or in the sea.

Sadly, we need some workforce to deal with this problem... I totally agree with that point. I played with Kerberos the last weeks so I see it as my duty to contribute some documentation. But I'm unsure what documentation system we should use. Felix did a great job and moved all confluence pages to Docbook. But I know that at least you (sorry, I won't blame you ;-) don't like Docbook XML. So should we switch back to confluence? Kind Regards, Stefan

Canyon Animal Clinic
{Our last , but not least, special Pet of the Month for CAC since the merge is coming next month} Hi! My name is Volpe! My mom rescued me from Texas Chihuahua Rescue where they originally found me as a stray in San Antonio. Although, I am very nervous around new people, I am getting more and more trusting and loving the attention. When I am not going on long walks, you will find me laying on the bed sleeping with my mom. I am not too fond of playing with toys, but I do love going to training class where I get to play with my friends! By far, my biggest accomplishment was recently winning 1st place in The Chihuahua Race!
Canyon City Animal Hospital
Meet Skipper! He is an adorable Rat Terrier mix who is about to turn 10! He came to see us August of last year because he was limping. Turns out the cruciate ligament in his leg had torn and he needed surgery. This is similar to an ACL tear in humans. The surgery was successful and he made a full recovery. He came back almost exactly a year later and was limping again, but on the other leg. Sure enough he had the same tear on his other rear leg! After another successful surgery and recovery he is back to his playful self!
Hunters Canyon Animal Hospital
Luna is the sweetest Bull Terrier puppy! She has been coming to us since March for her very first "puppy visit" and a check up due to some concerns about her skin. After a closer look at her skin and doing a skin scrape and checking the sample under a microscope; a condition was diagnosed as Demodex. Demodex is a genus of tiny mites that live in or near hair follicles of mammals. She has went through the treatment to clear her skin mites! She is full of energy and never slows down for more than a minute! Unfortunately, she recently had an accident and fractured her leg which required a specialty surgery to fix. Thankfully, she has healed up and is making up for all the time she had to stay calm after surgery! Despite it all she is always happy and her tail is always wagging! We are happy whenever we get to have this sweet girl in boarding!

Mad hatter incense is perceived to be expensive for it's range. Though there are herbal incenses which are more expensive than it and it actually falls in the mid price range. Another big negative for mad hatter is the packaging. The zip lock of the incense blend does not always seal properly and this can cause spilling of the incense when you take it out. If the seal is not proper the incense can get exposed to air and moisture which can cause it to lose the aroma.
The good parts are that mad hatter incense has immediate effects and is long lasting even after the incense has stopped burning. It also is potent. Some people however complain that the aroma is overpowering and it is negative. The aroma also depends on the flavor and most of them have a fruity smell to it.
To avoid the overpowering aroma new users should at first try limited quantity and if they enjoy then they should go for the full session of 30-40 minutes of aromatherapy.
Cloud 9 mad hatter incense burn well and the effect of burning for half an hour can last upto a few hours. If you can start enjoying it there would be nothing better than these incenses which are available in 5 flavours:
1. Hypnotic
2. Blueberry
3. Strawberry
4. Kush
5. Natural

In theses pictures you can see where I've carved away to get ready to inlay the underglaze. Please ignore that giant lump of clay holding the tail up, it's just there for support until the clay stiffens up, so all of that will just be negative space when all is finished.
I've also started applying the black underglaze. It looks a mess because I still have to finish scraping the edges of the inlayed areas. Toward the bottom you can kind of see where I've scraped some of it away (the lines are thinner and cleaner). But eventually all of the lines will be that quality.
I know that I posted pretty recently about the game Neverhood, but I found a video that shows some excerpts of the game. It's cool because you can get a feel for the environments they created for the game, and the sort of creepy sense of humor.
These are my three most recent tiles. They are at different stages, so we'll see how they all turn out.
The tile above has been fired twice, bisque and cone 6 glaze, and is now waiting to be fired at a low temperature so that the decals can melt into the glaze surface. The decals are the black line drawings. The process is pretty cool because they work sort of like temporary tattoos (in the way that you apply them to the clay) and then because there is iron in the ink, they turn red when fired.
This tile has not been fired at all yet, I carved the drawing in and inlayed the underglaze.
This one hasn't been fired either. It's kind of hard to see but I used a needle tool to poke through the lines on my drawing, making it appear on the clay. Not sure what I'm doing next with this one though.


text: Medicine With a plethora of discount vitamins available for purchase, how does a buyer know which ones are the right ones for his or her lifestyle? Saving money by buying vitamins on line at a discount is a worthwhile endeavor, but how much is it worth if the wrong vitamins are chosen? There are a number of factors to consider in achieving the correct .bination of vitamin intake and lifestyle. One must take into account whether a person is an indoor or an outdoors type. Are home cooking or fast food the eating options? Is a person leading an active, athletic life, or mainly a sedentary one? Which vitamins are best for all the different ways people live? When a person is sedentary, spending a large portion of the day indoors, doing tasks such sitting at a desk, talking on the phone, and working on the .puter, with little or no time for exercise, then he or she may want vitamins to bolster that lifestyle to stay healthy. To keep the nervous system and brain at top levels when doing these types of tasks, one should choose a vitamin B .plex. It will also support the immune system, which may be necessary if exercise is at a minimum. There is also the added stress relief factor with a vitamin B .plex, which may be important in a high profile work situation. Actually, can't nearly every lifestyle afford stress relief is today's fast-moving world? If a person isn't able to get regular exercise, they aren't producing endorphins, which stimulate the production of serotonin. Serotonin, in turn, helps keep a person on an even keel, warding off depression. A deficiency on vitamin B9 (Folic Acid), or vitamin B12 can bring on depression, so taking these two vitamins together can maintain the chemical balance that is needed, especially with low exercise levels. If this same individual is consistently an indoors person, due to job requirements, or to personal preference, he or she may want to consider supplementing with vitamin D. Vitamin D is manufactured by the body after being exposed to sunshine. If someone gets very little sunshine due to lifestyle or even the climate in which they live, it is necessary to take it in vitamin form. A serious vitamin D deficiency can lead to osteoporosis in adults or rickets in children. So preventative measures are necessary. This person may have a job that relies heavily on brain power. It is interesting to note that vitamin D aids in the body's absorption of calcium. Not only is calcium necessary for the normal development of bones and teeth, but it also is important to nerve cells and brain cells. So buying discount vitamin D can give that overworked brain a lift. When considering the necessity of healthy muscles that will help one perform in any physical situation, one must regard the benefits of vitamin E. This anti-oxidant prevents muscle weakness and impaired vision, especially in children. In adults, it has shown to have a beneficial effect in preventing cancer and heart attacks. With an active lifestyle, there are inevitable scrapes and bruises. If this is an occurring problem, extra vitamin K may be considered because it is what is needed for the blood to clot normally. It is also a preventative for internal bleeding and hemorrhaging. For the person doing considerable reading and close-up work, a choice of vitamin A is re.mended. This vitamin has a role in maintaining good eyesight, especially in defining bright colors. A fact that many do not know is that vitamin A helps maintain the epithelial cells of the skin. A deficiency can lead to dry skin, or even dry, itchy eyes that may tire quite easily. In this .puter age, where one spends hours daily at the pc, this vitamin is a necessity. Also, because vitamin A aids in night vision, a person who does a considerable amount of driving at night, such as a semi tractor trailer operator, or even a third shift worker who is driving to work every evening in the dark, should consider taking vitamin A supplements. Vitamin C is required to keep body tissues and muscles in their best shape. So it is needed by both the sedentary person, as well as the very active person, who might be using his muscles excessively. Smokers are especially encouraged to take Vitamin C. This vitamin is also aids in collagen production for skin, cartilage and connective tissues, so the person who loves the active life of running, mountain climbing, bicycling, or other sports, definitely needs to boost his intake of vitamin C. Nobel Laureate Linus Pauling advocated the use of vitamin C as an immunity booster to treat the .mon cold, which every lifestyle can use! The body requires all of these vitamins to be at its peak, to maintain healthy skin, bones, nerves, and brain power. If someone is not eating properly, and quickly downing fast food on the job, or in the car, it is extremely necessary to take those vitamins needed to stay healthy. Even if one is able to prepare most of one's own food, it isn't always possible to eat enough of every vitamin-rich food required, every day of the year. Vitamin supplements are a quick, and easy way to make sure every lifestyle is getting the nutrients required. It isn't even necessary to go to the mall to a specialty health store to purchase them. The vitamins of choice can be purchased online and even at discount prices. So no matter what lifestyle one is pursuing, either by choice, or by necessity, it can be enhanced by adding vitamins. The wise choice is to get started sooner rather than later! An even wiser choice is to buy them online as discount vitamins. About the Author: 相关的主题文章:

- Did you like the N64 and Gamecube?
Everyone says Nintendo was at its best during the NES/SNES eras but I beg to disagree. I feel Nintendo's best games came during the N64 and Gamecube eras. Games like Mario 64, Ocarina of time, Goldeneye, Star Fox 64, Metroid Prime 1 and 2, Sunshine, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, etc. are the pinnacle of Nintendo games imo.

I grew up with them, so i may have a nostalgic bias towards them. But i still consider them to be among Nintendo's greatest consoles they've released.
Although looking back at it, the N64 comes off as a bit... underwhelming. The controller is weird and had a terrible analog stick, and some of it's games have not aged particularily well.
Even a 65-million year old dinosaur can't say no to something fun as gaming.

N64 was my first Nintendo console (I rolled with Genesis before that).
My best friend had a Super Snes, and we'd play together/take turns of some of its best games, like Mario World, Donkey Kong Country 1 2 3, Crono Trigger, A link to the Past, and Super Metroid, among several others. So its not like I didn't know what was out there, but I was perfectly happy with my Genesis.
But N64? Oh man, that system blew me away. Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time were the most incredible gaming experiences of the time, and deeply affected me. I can still feel their impact to this day.
But on top of those, I got to play great games (for their time, at least) like Resident Evil 2, Banjo Kazooie and its sequel, DK64, Conker, Jet Force Gemini, Goldeneye and Perfect Dark, Mario Kart 64 and the Party games, Majora's Mask, and others I am not remembering.
I remember the N64 more fondly than the Super Snes I played in my friend's house. And even after playing the games of Snes I missed, I generally just enjoyed more the N64.
In regards to Gamecube, yeah, it was good, but I prefer Snes over it.

I loved the N64. Still do, actually; one is hooked up to my tv as we speak. I missed out on the GameCube though because I had stopped gaming for a couple of years around that time. Nintendo did have a lot of great games that came out during the lifespan of those two consoles, even if they weren't the best-sellers of their day.

i didn't like either. i feel like n64 was the start of the fall of nintendo's console empire. Sure their first couple of years were great, but it couldn't last compared to games like FF7 and crazy tech games like Bushido Blade.
I will say that every year during the n64 era one game did deserve game of the year. so it was worth buying. But i would literally spend like $180 a year on games while on ps1 and dreamcast side would spend in the thousands.
Gamecube i feel like there were less game of the year games. PS2 was kicking it's ass. Sure i would buy all the first party games on gamecube, but back then PS2 first party games were as great as the greatest gamecube game.
I'm always 50% right all the time

Most games on N64 are garbage
N64 has the fewest amount of games of any Nintendo system partly because of quality control.
The polygons are outdated, but it easily had some of the best games out there.
I hate that i'm getting so old that I'm consistently reading posts from teenage talk through their ass about a system they weren't around for.

SNES was my first console so it definitely has a special place in my heart. It also had a very strong game library so it will always be one of my top consoles.
The N64 i never owned, but I did play it alot at friends/cousins house and I liked it.
Gamecube I owned and loved, there were alot of gems on that thing.

I enjoyed both consoles but I do feel Gamecube was Nintendo's worst home console (I do not know what to call Virtual Boy). I even enjoy the features of Wii U more than Gamecube. I thought all the games were... just... off. Too fast, or too slow to be enjoyed properly. I also thought the controller was complete trash. On top of that, I felt for the first time, that I was not, "in sync" with Nintendo's vision.
With all that said, I did enjoy the console. I also think Nintendo 64, while not their best effort, was so ground breaking that I have no idea how I could not remember it fondly or enjoy it during its time.

Yup, they were the last good Nintendo consoles until the Wii really ruined their image... With me personally anyway. The games they've been coming out with in more recent years just don't capture my interest like the older ones do. On 64 I loved OoT, Perfect Dark, Smash 64, Diddy Kong Racing, Star Wars Episode 1 Racer, F-Zero, Turok, and probably more I'm forgetting...
I didn't get to play most Nintendo games on Gamecube but it still had games I was very interested in outside of Nintendo, stuff like Lost Kingdoms, Baten Kaitos, Eternal Darkness, the various RE games that were exclusive at the time and more. It's true it might've been a bit of a step down from the 64, though.
Never got to play a lot of SNES games back in the day either but I still think the 64 is probably better than SNES though and I doubt my opinion would change even if I did. :P

I'd never had an N64.As soon as I learned the next Final Fantasy game was going to be on Playstation, I got that.
The games given the most acclaim on the N64, Mario 64 and OoT... I didn't like them when I tried their portable versions on the DS and 3DS respectively.
I probably would have enjoyed GoldenEye because I loved TimeSplitters, and Ogre Battle 64 was something I had always wanted (main reason I got the Wii U, so I could play it on VC), but not much else on the system. Pokémon Stadium was on there, and I might have cared if I had ever really cared about Pokémon.
The GameCube, on the other hand, that was the peak of gaming for me, and across all consoles. I didn't get a GameCube until it had Phantasy Star Online with local single system multiplayer. Add in Resident Evil Zero, 4 (okay, I didn't like RE4 much, but it was still cool as a timed exclusive), Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, a TimeSplitters game, Eternal Darkness, and it had all kinds of games I really liked. I legitimately can't remember a single first party game aside from Eternal Darkness I played on the system, and I still loved it.
Home console gaming has gone downhill for me entirely since that gen, but all the systems around that time (DC, PS2, XBox, GC, GBA, NeoGeo Pocket Color) were awesome.
So I didn't care much for N64, but loved the third party games on GameCube.

I do, but they don't compare to the SNES. The 64 was a good console that did three genres better than the Playstation and Saturn, but far weaker in other genres. The Gamecube was a good console, but was distinctly inferior to the Xbox and PS2 when it comes to library and system features.

Xbox' library is debatable, some might prefer it to GC's and others would find GC's lineup more interesting. Though there's no denying that PS2 leaves both in the dust.

N64 was great.
The Gamecube is by far my favorite Nintendo system.
The switch can very well top that. But we'll have to wait and see.
On gc, so many games and some of my all time favorite in any genre. Just to name a few:
Rogue squadron (got it one week before gc launch)
Killer 7
Skies of arcadia Legend
Tales of Symphonia
Metroid prime

I can't think of a single genre the Gamecube excels in. Compared to the Xbox, it really only has an advantage in JRPG's.
Another interesting way to look at this is how the games for each Nintendo console have aged. To me, the top two in order are:
...and by a fair margin.
NES clearly has a few all-time classics, but also some really primitive titles that just don't play well today. N64 had a handful of extremely influential titles (Mario 64, Goldeneye, Ocarina), but they are surprisingly clunky to play today. Nothing against them...great for their time. They just don't have the timeless, still-plays-smooth-in-2018 quality of a Mario 3 or aLttP.
But go back and play Metroid Prime or Wind Waker, and you'll be surprised how good they look and play for games that came out in 2002. I'd argue the same for Pikmin, Luigi's Mansion, Animal Crossing, and Melee.
Wii is kinda like the NES, where there are a few extraordinary titles (ex: Galaxy) and a lot of forgettable stuff.

Disagree. Wind Waker was quietly the first Zelda since the original to emphasize "discovery and exploration" over "puzzle solving and dungeons." Admittedly, the execution was slightly flawed (sailing got boring). But the vision was certainly not archaic. It was a re-imagination of Zelda's roots across a vast sea. A reinvention of exploration.
Similarly, cel shading was actually pretty risky back in 2002. Now you've got mainstream games choosing for cartoony styles (see: Overwatch, Fortnite). In many ways, Wind Waker was a trail blazer here. (AKA the opposite of archaic).
I think you've got a tad more ground to stand on when you call Metroid "archaic." Certainly, the gameplay flow of "puzzle-platform room followed by another puzzle-platform room etc. etc." could be considered old-fashioned. But with the original Prime, the transition to 3D was huge. A truly excellent Metroidvania in 3D space.
I do think by Prime 3, that gameplay loop had gotten a bit overdone though.

On this page we explain what we mean by transcreation and give you 5 steps to transcreating your marketing message.
Transcreation is a combination of the words 'translation' and 'creation'. It's the process of adapting an ad or a piece of marketing copy to make it work in another language.
The Macmillan Dictionary defines transcreation as:
"a distinct translation process that is mainly used to describe the adaptation of advertising and marketing copy".
Some marketing materials such as advertisements are so country-specific that they simply wouldn't work if you translated them into English. So we translate and adapt them using a process called transcreation.
Transcreation goes much further than translation. It ensures that your core message is retained but it adapts the advert to meet the needs of the target country.
#1 – The brief. Give us the kind of brief you give your advertising people. The more information you can give us, the better.
#2 – We review your ad or marketing copy and identify which areas need adapting.
#3 – We send you some suggestions based on what we know will work in English.
#4 – We liaise with you to decide which one best meets your needs.
#5 – We produce transcreated copy that chimes with your English-speaking audience.
Let us help you expand into English speaking markets by translating your marketing materials into language your potential customers will understand.

Kenya's new constitution, a progressive framework for decentralisation
An article by Daniel Biau[1] and Alain Kanyinda[2] published in "Urban World", September 2010.
On 4 August 2010, a new Constitution was approved by two third of the registered Kenyan voters in a national referendum organised as a part of the fundamental reforms agreed upon by the Kenyan governmental coalition in 2008. The Constitutional referendum falls under Agenda 5 of the "peace accord"sponsored by the international community, and facilitated by the Panel of African Eminent Persons led by Kofi Annan, former Secretary General othe United Nations, which saved Kenya from the scourge of violence and insecurity in the aftermath of the general elections in 2007.
Kenya's new fundamental law include eighteen chapters, which deal with very practical matters related to the management of the country as a sovereign Republic ranging from the "Bill of rights" to the "National Security". It also lays down principles on which a modern order should be established by enshrining rules, which are essential to establishing a democratic society.[3]
One of major innovations of Kenya's new Constitution, which reaffirms the "sovereignty of the people", is the establishment of a devolved system of governance to promote a democratic and accountable exercise of power. While strengthening the national unity by recognising diversity, Kenya's new political system gives powers of self-governance to the local level in order to enhance the participation of the people in making decisions affecting them. It also recognises the right of communities to manage their own affairs and to further their economic development, including the provision of basic services[4].
By devolving power from the centre to 47 governance entities called "counties", Kenya's new Constitution builds upon the principle of "subsidiarity", which is the underlying rationale of decentralised governance. The new Constitution stipulates that the establishment of "county governments" shall be based on separation of powers. It recognises that the county governments shall have reliable sources of revenue to enable them to govern and deliver services effectively. It also rules on a balanced gender representation in the county government, as no more than two-thirds of the members of representative bodies shall be of the same gender."[5] Unfortunately the new Constitution overlooks the municipal level and does not distinguish between urban and rural areas. Municipal Councils and Mayors seem to have disappeared while "local authorities" are only briefly mentioned in the 6th schedule of the Constitution. This shortcoming will hopefully be addressed by future national legislation.
Kenya's new Constitution further transforms the country's legislature into a bicameral system by establishing a Parliament, which shall consist of a National Assembly and a Senate. While the National Assembly shall represent the people of the various constituencies nation-wide, the Senate represents the counties, and serves to protect their interests[6]. More importantly, there shall be a real democratic practice at the county level with a local government consisting of a county assembly and a county executive. The political power at the county level will not be concentrated in the hands of an individual executive, but a county executive committee consisting of a "county governor", "deputy county governor" and "members appointed by the county governor with approval of the assembly, from among persons who are not members of the assembly".[7]
Kenya's new decentralised system of governance provides an appropriate institutional framework in support of local economic development, as the new fundamental law will also reform the current budgetary system, which has not been favourable to local and urban development over many decades in the country's history. The new Constitution provides clear principles and a framework for the management of public finance, which promote openness and accountability, including public participation in financial matters, as well as equitable sharing of national revenue and the powers of taxation.[8]
The new law also provides for an "equalisation fund", into which shall be paid one half per cent of all the revenue collected by the national government to be used for the provision of basic services including water, roads, health facilities and electricity to marginalised areas to the extent necessary to bring the quality of those services in those areas to the level generally enjoyed by the rest of the nation.
This attempt to reform Kenya's fiscal system is much welcome. Even more significant, the new Constitution has introduced a completely new public finance management system to reduce the upper hand and discretionary powers of central governmental bodies, e.g. Ministry of Finance and the Treasury, by creating new constitutional offices with new roles and responsibilities. This is translated in practical terms into the establishment of a "Commission on Revenue Allocation", who should be responsible for making recommendations on: "equitable sharing of revenue raised by the national government between the national and county government, as well as among the county governments". Most specifically, the law stipulates for every financial year that the share of the revenue raised nationally, which shall be allocated to county governments "shall be not less than fifteen per cent of all revenue collected by the national government."[9]
In that connection, each county government is empowered to prepare and adopt its own annual budget and Parliament shall by legislation ensure that county governments have adequate support to enable them to perform their functions. Kenya's Constitution also forbids the delay of the share of national revenue due to the county, except when the transfer has been stopped for financial control.
On the other hand the relationship between County Governments and other Local Authorities, be they cities or urban municipal councils, will require careful analysis, particularly to clarify the role and position of the Mayors and councilors vis-à-vis County Governors and County Assemblies. Should local authorities and County Governments exist together as implied by Article 184 and the 6th schedule, it will be important for the Parliament to delineate the areas of jurisdiction and the functions of each level of local government and to update the Local Government Act.
Kenya's new Constitution is good news for the country and could provide a model for Africa. The Bill of rights provides a framework for social, economic and cultural policies, which further recognises the right of the Kenyan citizens to accessible and adequate housing, and to reasonable standards of sanitation and water[10]. The endorsement of the new Constitution by a vast majority of the people on Kenya signals a crucial "re-birth" of this country.
It is also good news for the international community assembled within the United Nations system. UN-HABITAT is not only a partner of the Kenyan Government, but it is one of the two Programmes of the United Nations headquartered in Nairobi. As the City Agency of the United Nations, UN-HABITAT has been supporting the efforts of the Kenyan Government to engage in the ongoing reforms, which should aim at promoting the urban and housing development sectors for the benefit of the disadvantaged Kenyan populations. It is a positive development that Kenya's new Constitution recognises the "equitable access to land" a fundamental principle of its land policy, as "all land in Kenya belongs to the people of Kenya collectively as a nation, and as individuals."[11]
Kenya's new Constitution also echoes the work of the Governing Council of UN-HABITAT, which approved of the "International Guidelines on decentralisation and strengthening of local authorities" in 2007 to assist policy reforms and legislative action at the country level. The Guidelines recommend to acknowledge local authorities in "national legislation, and if possible, in the Constitution, as legally autonomous sub-national entities with a positive potential to contribute to national planning and development"[12].
UN-HABITAT's Guidelines on decentralisation set out a number of principles which are very well reflected in the Kenyan Constitution. They aggregate different dimensions of democratic practice combining representative and participatory democracy[13]. The notion of democracy involves the empowering of citizens to take part in the decision-making process and the strengthening of the capacity of local governments to carry out the tasks for which they are elected. The principles of "subsidiarity"[14] and "proportionality" underlie the relations between various spheres of government. Subsidiarity states that decision-making should be as close to the citizen as possible, while proportionality states that decisions should be taken at the level where they can be best carried out. Finally, the fiscal and human resource necessary to support local autonomy as stipulated in the Guidelines have been recognized by the Kenyan Constitution[15] with a certain number of principles that allow local authorities (county Governments) to both fulfil their tasks and maintain their autonomy even when grants are transferred from central budgets.
UN-HABITAT focuses on three components in order to fast track the implementation of the International Guidelines on decentralisation: (i) advocacy and partnerships at the national level, (ii) capacity development, and (iii) monitoring and reporting on progress. A strengthened partnership between the City Agency of the United Nations and the Government of Kenya within the context of the country's new Constitution would be useful to other countries interested in the implementation of the international Guidelines on decentralisation and the promotion of local democracy for sustainable urbanisatio

I decided I wanted to author a module. So I found the obvious resources and links and started the tutorial, the Invasion of Fern. [Aurora Toolset Tutorial] I, of course, found some stuff to be missing. This page is my my how to code a module page. This article contains broken Bioware links and now broken Vault links.

Year: 2009
British Higher Education
Decline & Fall
In Feb 2007, a manifesto/biography entitled Decline and Fall of the British University appeared on the internet but its host site disappeared pretty quickly. The Google cache has also expired now.
It was signed by Mark Tarver, who argues that the expansion of student numbers and the increased and payment of tuition fees has led to a reduction in educational quality as 'hard' subjects can't attract the students to warrant the teaching and the funders collude to ensure increasing pass rates, for in the governments case, political gain, and in the student/parent's case economic gain. It was also blogged by Scatman Dan, on his blog under the same title.
Tarver's article is back online, probably has been for a while. 17th July 2009
LAMP & Ubuntu
This should be easier, but I think made harder because I corrupted my Firefox applications helper list, and then chose the wrong way out
My problem, the browser tries to download index.phtml, in retrospect because, I believe that the module wasn't properly installed into apache. Using Ubuntu 9.04
The Right Way
This page, Apache MySQL PHP at https://help.ubuntu.com/ is the bible.
apt-get install apache2 php5 php5-mysql libapache2-mod-php5 php5-mysql mysql-server
I am running in a virtual box so I needed to create a /etc/apache2/conf.d/fqdn. There wasn't one on my system, it needs the line
ServerName localhost
I suspect that fixed it, and that my errors were caused by not initially correctly installing libapache2-mod-php5. I have proved that my install works by using Opera. Now to remove the .phtml line from the firefox browser and make the vm a server.
NWN Macros
I decided to give NWN Macros some examination. It'd be nice to group a bunch of actions, and bind them to a single button. i.e. "buff up", or "put the sword and shield away & draw bow". This article contains broken Bioware links. Continue reading "NWN Macros"
Centos 4.7
I built a Sun Virtual Box VM based on Centos 4.7. June 2009
1st Impressions
Its a long time since I used Red Hat. If you don't want to cut CD's use one of the single file .iso images. I used the DVD version.
When I tried to install it on my XP SP/3, the install process failed and rolled back. This trouble ticket, #3701 details how to fix the windows registry which was damaged at v2.2.0.
The Centos install process installs an SMP and uniprocessor version into GRUB and grub is configured to start the SMP version as default. This thread, entitled CentOS 4.7 guest won't start, suggests that one should configure PAE/NX=on for the SMP image, which is not the default at V2.2.4. So I have set it and it works for me.
The above three items I posted to my Sun blog on 2nd July '09
The screen resizing doesn't work well out of the box but there's a sticky thread called "Howto: Install Linux Guest Additions + Xorg config" in the Virtual Box Linux Guests forum.
There's a sudo error. The default admin user is not authorised to use sudo. (See this at the Red Hat knowledge base.) One needs to unhash a line in the sudoers file and add the admin user to the sudoers group using visudo & usermod.
Locate needs updatedb run, but apropos works and I can't find catman, even using apropos.
Shared Folders
Works as expected, define the share name in the GUI, install
# mount -t vboxsf sharename ${mountpoint} # ls ${mountpoint}
then add the line to /etc/fstab and test using mount -a
# echo sharenamet ${mountpoint}t vboxsf >>/etc/fstab # mount -a
Python 2.4
Looks like we need a parallel i.e. source code install and use the PATH statement to allow bzr and planet if necessary to utilise it. Certainly, bzr will not install against python 2.3. A shed load of the distro is written in 2.3. An upgrade would seem to be difficult and dangerous.
Snipsnap, RSS & XML feeds
This page was originally entitled "Snipsnap Blog & XML Feeds". It documented one of the crucial failings in snipsnap, its limited rss feed size of 10 and the blog article naming which means that it considered nearly all the articles to be titled "1". In 2009, I experimented with using Google reader as a feed aggregator, good choice eh? The final part of this article documented my experiments and gave hints on how to follow me using the google reader feed. This is now no longer available, but neither is snipsnap. Continue reading "Snipsnap, RSS & XML feeds"
LLTD on Linux
It seems this is possible, and would be useful for work where all the laptops are Vista machines.
There's not that much on the web, and I'd have thought there was an Ubuntu package, but I can't find it.
- The How to forge page. Seems simple enough.
- Microsoft's Web Page, which also has a license, which is not GPL, which maybe why the distro's don't package it.
I ran the make and got this error,
../src/state.c: In function 'state_process_packet': ../src/state.c:177: error: 'UINT_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function) ../src/state.c:177: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once ../src/state.c:177: error: for each function it appears in.) make: *** [state.o] Error 1
There is one thread on the 'net, at howtoforge forums, but the advice is incomplete. I returned to the howto forge page and studied the comments. They advice linking the bourne and bash shells and addding an include line in state.c. It now compiles but does not behave as I expect, or as documented in Microsofts guide.
I created a short URL for the howto tutorial because I took the script from there. http://is.gd/5rhUK
I have used the package manager to download and install samba and its documentation. With both LLTD and with smbd & nmbd running, the Vista boxes can browse the shared area. (Do I need LLTD? It seems not, I restarted the lltd daemon and it failed to open some resource. I need to document it. )
This was copied across in June 2013. It probably died of relevance as Vista was replaced. It's one of the things I looked into when trying to use a Vista laptop at work between 2009 and 2011.
If you have something to add, please do so.

have and shall be was visiting Brussels on a regular basis. This page was copied accross from the v3 wiki in the early summer of 2013. I had stopped visiting Brussels for business in 2009, but on 4th August 2013, Starwood Hotels spammed me with notice of new and old hotels. I decided to revise the page. I have changed the tense in this paragraph, I put some linkrolls in for hotels and restaurants and links to the photos. Most of the what I say here is now getting dated.
More of my pictures are here….
About Hotels
Hotels in Brussels during the working week are expensive. I have at the moment a very long list of hotels on my del.icio.us tag list and on my google map. I am looking for an acceptably priced hotel near Rond Point Schuman, or on Metro Line 1 with internet access. The *** Hotels I have tried do not have either internet, nor mini bars, and while I am not desperate for booze during the night, it is nice to have some water.
My Brussels Map
This is the Google Map, I have focussed it on the Rond Point Schuman, in the European Quarter.
View Larger Map
- Sofitel; list prices are not cheap, but located on the Place Jourdain in the European Quarter, near the Berlaymont and Rond Point Schuman.
- Carrefour d'Europe, a Best Western near the Gare Centrale. On metro route 1 and the train to Zaventem. I have never stayed here since its always full and I book late.
- Le Meridien, a Starwood Group hotel, again near the Gare Centrale. Nice but pricey, often full if one books late.
More Hotels
- Comfort Art Hotel Siru, well written about in the Rough Guide, which is right about the decoration, but has no internet, let alone broadband. (I only stayed there one night because if this, I was on business and this was unacceptable.) The mini bar was empty and a dispensing machine on the 6th floor was recommended. This had no water. It is above the Saint Germain Brasserie, which is nice, with good service. This is a 3* Hotel. The bathroom was huge and had a bath. Breakfast is served in the Brasserie. It is located on Place Rogier, so near the Gare du Nord and on Metro 2. Some might consider this hotel in an unnecessarily exciting and colourful part of town.
- I should try the Hilton Brussels, while I have a gold card, its interestingly located on the edge of the old town near to "Louise" and the "European Quarter". Its pinned on the Map above.
- I stayed in the "NH City Centre" once, good restaurant, smallish but adequate room, broadband internet, great views from the room I had, the location needs exploring, and it wasn't so well located for the business I had.
- Check out the Rough Guide
- See my googlemap of brussels
- See my del.icio.us?tags=brussels
Things to do
- You can visit the European Parliament building.
- The pictures in the Musee des Belle Artes.
- The awesome Grand Place
- The Winterfest in St. Catherine's.
NWN Henchmen
While playing the official campaign I got fed up with the henchman's poor behaviour in combat and started to research what can be done. I started a thread at rpgdungeon.net which discusses improving henchpersons. I write a bit about henchmen in my NWN Playing a Paladin article, which was my first, but for the later games, it's mainly here. Also Wikipedia has a very comprehensive article on the henchmen. This page talks about the AI mods, Sharwyn, , Mischa Waymeet & Dorna Trapspringer and the last battle in the Official/Original Campaign. Continue reading "NWN Henchmen"
Tagging Engines
While http://delicious.com/ is a fantastic social bookmarking site, its not easy to implement inside a firewall, which needs to be done if the URL list to be tagged is an intranet resource.
Open Source alternatives
Here's some alternatives,
which needs from
Installing Scuttle
- Download WAMP – this works pretty much out of the box, only problem is if IIS is already running in which case you need to either let Apache use another port, or turn it off. Use phpmyadmin to create a new database and a user with rights to use the new database. Its best to sue the same name as the O/S user, document the password.
- Download Scuttle – this is a zip file and I had problems with Windows Vista as it has problems dealing with the file hierarchy names. You can download your favourite evaluation version of a tool, or I downloaded cygwin which since I used it to run the .sql file, I found useful and there is no problem with license and uncompress | tar -x works fine.
- Download Cygwin – Not exactly mandatory, but I prefer it, every windows systems should have one.
B$ export PATH=${WAMPHOME}/bin/mysql/mysql${VERSION}/bin:${PATH} B$ cd ${WAMPHOME}/www/${scuttlehome} B$ mysql -P$DBPASSWD < tables.sql
Configure PHP as a database client. Copy all the scuttle files to an appropriate location with the web server's public file system. ${ROOT}/scuttle is good, but I don't use it. Copy config.inc.php.example to config.inc.php, and amend the user, password and database values to the ones you have used and set. Add the line
to this file, otherwise you get a bunch of forward compatibility warnings.
That's enough I'll write up my usability tests another day, I expect to repeat some of these notes on the project's sourceforge pages. but didn't!
Dell Dimension 5150c
This was originally entitled "Our New XP Box". I changed the title when I copied the snip across to WordPress in July 2013.
The snip is called our new box. It isn't so new anymore, but is about the Dell Dimension 5150c.
Archiving the Pictures
Some years ago, I bought a Freecom DVD writer and decided to back up the pictures to DVD. XP did not originally support DVD writing and I have no idea if that's changed so I needed to use Roxio Creator to do this.
Making Videos
In the Spring 2008, I decided to try and make some talking heads videos. My endeavours are documented on below Spring 2008
I am not sure where this comes from, but I have been trying to use it to make videos with a USB webcam. Basicaly I can't get the sound to work. Google helped me find this FAQ.
I can now hear the sound on a Video. The key is to use the volume control to turn up the Recording volume.
Dell Forums
The mucked around with the forums again in Dec 2008. I am not sure the links below work any longer.
They now have an XP Support Centre & self help forum. They also have an all my posts page.
Dell Forums and Safe Mode
I also had reason to create Windows Boot Menu page on this site. I was doing some housekeeping on my Dell Dimension 5150c and discovered that yet again the Dell Support site had been improved. There used to be tech support articles about the various systems they sold and are in use, but I finally found a reference on to how to bring the system up in Safe Mode, which I have documented. It implies that this is no longer different for each model and that Dell have standardised on F8. Anyway that's what works on my machine. Interestingly hard to find I tried both Google and Exalead, but eventually found it using Google, of course.
External Disk
I installed an external disk to hold the pictures, music and maybe videos, i.e. the home directories.
Using the Fax
On 14th Sept 2009, I tried to send a Fax to Spain. This was after the new hub/router line was set up. The fax failed several times; I had tried to enter the hotel into the windows address book with a phone compatible fax number i.e. +34… I solved the problem by entering the destination as a one-off and specifying the destination country using a pull down menu. The fax console reported the destination number as 00 34 …., not +34. I used hyperterminal to test the line. This is a nuisance. It seems I need to store the fax numbers as UK specific, although I don't use the phone much as a fax transmission device.
Action: The computer modem external wiring needs tidying up when the old btconnect line is terminated. i.e. It is currently using the old data line.
Desktop Icons
XP does not have "My Documents", "My Computer" or "My Network Places" on the desktop. They can be placed their using
Desktop -> Properties -> Customize Desktop
Security Center (sic) on XP aka the state of my box!
Written shortly after purchase, dated 7th Feb
It seems that XP can only have one security centre solution. The system comes with McAfee and I need Norton. Sadly I didn't understand this and have had to restart the rebuild.
I have therefore had to trash certain pieces of work. With help I have managed to resolve my W98 systems network problems. (This was caused by one of the auto exec programs blocking the port on the W98 system). The W98 system is now acting as the print server. This came back OK.
I misread the screen configuration parameters and the drivers work out of the box. I have a lovely 19″ flat screen, which seems to be working fine.
Paintshop Pro is now owned by Corel and I have a trial licence. I wonder if my one & one subscription still entitles me to a PSP right-to-use. I need to track this down. Otherwise I need to discover the best way to obtain a right-to-use, otherwise maybe I should bite the bullet and buy Photoshop.
I expect I shall put OpenOffice on the box first, since some of the .doc files I have are too old for MS`Works' word processor to read. (I shall be installing MS Office Educational Edition, in order to ensure that the MS file types have default methods that invoke the Microsoft programs.)
I need to go back to http://art.gnome.org in order to download some more wall papers.
I have also lost some of the file transfers from the laptop and old W98 system.
Other snips here
See also Help & Support, & I now have an Audio snip, which deals with installing a Microphone, and the CTMBHA.DLL driver issues as well. Xmas 2006
At about the same time that I bought the Dell I also bought an Alienware Aurora, which worked fine for two and half years and then developed a frustrating problem
Snipsnap Problems
This was copied across from the snipsnap bliki on 26th July. It's all a bit redundant now, but it might be useful for others. This was a pagfe that documented my work in building the configuration and in some places represented a work in progress. In some cases, the resolution is not documented and in others I failed to resolve it. I eventually gave up on snipsnap. Hope this page helps someone! Continue reading "Snipsnap Problems"

All Ireland experience will stand to Gabriel's, says Duane
By Damian Dolan.
St Gabriel's manager Tommy Duane believes that last year's All Ireland adventure will stand to the club as they prepare for another assault on the Club Championship.
Gabriel's made it all the way to Croke Park in February, seeing off Ulster champions Lisbellaw St Patrick's and Killimordaly of Galway along the way, only to be edged out by Kilkenny's Clara at the final hurdle.
That defeat will undoubtedly be a source of motivation for the London champions, and Duane believes the club have learnt from the experience.
"We would have gained a lot from playing in the All Ireland last year – you've got to be focused and fit," he said.
"We're definitely stronger – we're more compact. We were probably a little bit light weight up front last year, but this year we've added some good quality players. We're a more balanced side."

Faro International AirportBy Lina Rodrigues • Nov 27th, 2009 • Category: Quinta News
Faro airport is to receive six million euros from the European Commission for the first phase of its redevelopment plan.
The award is one of 12 various infrastructure projects in Europe to benefit from part of a total investment of 500 million euros.
The airport's total redevelopment plan is estimated to cost around 130 million euros and will be carried out in two phases.
The first phase, which has already begun, will concentrate on the airport's operational areas, while the second phase will see the terminal and accesses completed by 2013.
Meanwhile, low cost airline Ryanair, opened its first Portuguese domestic route on October 26 between Faro and Porto airports.
Ryanair spokesman, Daniel de Carvalho said: "Until now, many hours and a lot of money were wasted to travel between the north and south of the country."
The new flights from Faro to Porto will operate every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. As well as allowing easy access to various areas of interest in the north of Portugal, the connection also allows for flights to other destinations otherwise unavailable from the Algarve.
Lina Rodrigues - Office Manager - Lina was born in Madeira but spent her formative years in England. In 1981 her family relocated to the Algarve because of its high quality of living and mild climate.

Well not much to post, but I thought I'd tell you anyways. Josh needed another blood transfusion, so mom took him up on Wednesday for it. His numbers weren't as low as they thought so he only needed one bag of blood. They also did an xray because he was having a lot of pain. They found out he was retaining a lot of fluid but nothing serious. I'll post more after the scan on the 24th! As always, please continue to pray! We really appreciate everyone's prayers and support.

Ladysmith Black Mambazo was already one of the most popular and acclaimed vocal ensembles in their native South Africa before Paul Simon invited them to perform on his 1986 album {^Graceland}, which helped to make the group international stars. Led by Joseph Shabalala, the group features two tenors, an alto, and seven bass voices, bringing a unique and powerful sound to their songs, which are often inspired by traditional Zulu melodies. Ladysmith Black Mambazo has survived political strife, racial hostility, and personal tragedy in South Africa to become one of the leading groups in world music, and this documentary offers a close look at the group on stage, while also exploring their tumultuous life and times. On Tiptoe: The Music of Ladysmith Black Mambazo premiered at the 2000 Seattle Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Expressionist digital painting of Savaldor Dali.
The first time I came across a Salvador Dali painting (in a book), I was a fan. It was the moment I realized art could be something beyond either still life or classical paintings. Sure, I was old enough to be aware of all kinds of art. But, it took a Dali to really open my mind to how limitless art could be. Before then, I saw art without fully understanding or considering each piece. Dali taught me to look beyond the first impression and to look for hidden meanings or imagery. Though I eventually settled on abstract as my preferred style of expression, Dali had a profound impact on how I approached my art.
Since I'm stretching my creative muscles and experimenting with this style of expressionism on portraits, I thought he would be a good subject. There are countless photos of the man – usually with him making an odd face. Since I couldn't decide on one, I chose to do a composite. I think I'm happy with how it turned out.
