STI Software Appropriate for Announcement
Organizations and individuals who have developed and/or modified software during work supported by DOE or during work carried out for others at DOE facilities are required to announce the software with the appropriate announcement record to ESTSC, if the software meets the following criteria:
- the software meets the definition of STI;
- the software is known or expected to be useful inside or outside the DOE community, or is not specific to the originating site; and
- a stable, usable, documented version of the software exists (i.e., the software is not under initial development);
- the software has undergone all appropriate reviews for sensitivity and export control.
Refer to the Software Best Practices document for more information on the internal review, announcement, and dissemination of software.
Exclusions. Software that meets the following criteria need not be announced to ESTSC:
- operational systems software that is site-specific, unique to a particular hardware, or necessary to ensure the fundamental operability of automated data processing equipment, whether supplied by the manufacturer of the system hardware or others;
- computer software programs developed and/or modified during work carried out for others at DOE facilities that are specifically excluded in the agreement under which the non-DOE funded work was performed;
- software generated under the auspices of the Energy Information Administration; and
- specific software used by power administrations for the operation, control, planning, and modeling of electric power transmission systems and the interconnected utilities; however, modifications/enhancements to portions of this software that are not an integral part of the whole and have potential application outside the power administrations should be announced.
Using the Software Categories table as a guideline, the software may be made available by either submitting the software package to ESTSC, submitting it to a SIAC (for software of applicable scope for a SIAC), or hosting the software on the originating site's Web server (e.g., applicable freeware).
Announcing Software to OSTI that is Available as Open Source or is Submitted to a Specialized Analysis Center (SIAC)
- A DOE site that chooses to make software available as Open Source must submit an AN 241.4 to OSTI, and must include a unique URL
- Software submitted to a SIAC should also be announced to OSTI via an AN 241.4, with availability information provided.
Announcement/Submission Criteria
The following information/material needs to be included when software is announced or submitted to ESTSC or a SIAC:
- announcement information /metadata contained in Software Announcement Notice 241.4;
- source code and/or executable file; unique URL; or other location for obtaining the software and
- documentation, if any, which may consist of a user manual, sample test cases, or similar information required for properly using the software (whether included on the software media itself or provided in a separate file or in paper format).
Software Categories
Different categories of software have different distribution requirements, limitations and appropriate distribution channels, which are defined in the Software Categories table.
This table is not intended to be an exhaustive list. Contact ESTSC at (865) 576-2606 with questions regarding the appropriate announcement or distribution channel.
Announcement Notice Elements
Announcement Notice metadata elements pertaining to Software Announcement Notice 241.4 are listed in the Announcement Notice Metadata Elements table. This table lists the metadata elements, with required (R) and optional (O) fields noted.

A "deeply religious" man hacked off the head of his next door neighbour and put it in a wheelie bin after he heard voices telling him to protect his toddler son, a court has heard.
Paranoid schizophrenic Eric Cruz, 32, launched the brutal assault because of his delusional belief that the neighbour was planning to kill his 17-month-old child.
The Philippines-born biology graduate thought he was on a "mission to protect children" and claimed saints would talk to him, Manchester Crown Court heard.
Another neighbour claimed he heard the repeated chanting of "voodoo, voodoo, voodoo" from the Cruz household in the hours leading up to the attack.
Patrick McGee, 63, was stabbed 17 times with severe force as he answered the door of his home in Crumpsall, Manchester, on the evening of 15 December last year.
Cruz then slashed at his neck and severed the head which he carried outside and placed in a bin in his neighbour's front garden.
Just 15 minutes later, warehouseman Cruz dialled 999 and calmly told the operator he had cut off the head of his neighbour.
The court was told Cruz misunderstood his neighbour's friendly nature as intrusiveness, which had "fed into his delusions".
Sentencing him to an indefinite hospital order, Judge Michael Henshell said: "This is a tragic case.
"Patrick McGee had worked all his life. Everything I have heard about him gives me the impression he was a kind, gentle man. The perfect neighbour. He was welcoming to Eric Cruz and his family when they moved next door.
"Tragically, Eric Cruz suffered from a mental illness, apparently for some time. He heard voices. He had fixed and firm beliefs that voices were commanding him to do various things.
"He believed he had a mission to protect children and believed it was necessary for him to take the life of Patrick McGee to protect his own child.
"He was driven to that wicked and irrational act by the illness he suffers.
"The nature of that killing was so brutal that the effect on his family will last for the rest of their lives.
"For a kind and gentle man to have his life ended in this way is really unspeakable."
Cruz, of Parkhill Avenue, admitted manslaughter on the grounds of diminished responsibility.
His not guilty plea to murder was accepted by the Crown.

Edit Article
How to Have Internet Marketing Jobs from Home
The main marketing opportunities for new folks wanting to start an Internet business they can perform at home lie in affiliate marketing. This article explains how to do this.
1Make a list of things that you are interested in, hobbies, education, the stuff you read, any and everything. Decide on one or two items that you are passionate about. Expand your comments on those items.
2Think of a theme you would like to have for your website. Start with a general site that you can add related pages to. What do you want people to find on that site?
3Think about what folks would search for if they were to end up on your page. Google and the other search engines will send them to your site only if your site has relevant information. If you write an article and direct the reader to your site, he or she must find relevant information. Maybe your site is about gardening. If a person searches for "how to grow carrots," then you must have a page that tells how to "grow carrots." Don't think you are going to get a way with "types of carrots" unless that page tells "how to grow carrots."
4Choose a name for your site. It might just be some random name,or Gardening World, or a funny name that people will remember. A rule of thumb is that it should have keywords being used by those searching the Internet. Register your site name. Godaddy.com is a good place to get this done. They have great customer service and they will talk to you on the telephone.
5Host your site at Godaddy.com or such. Follow the instructions for uploading the files you will be needing. You can create the pages by using an HTML editor such as CoffeeCup.com. Godaddy also has such software. There are many programs available on the Internet, many free.
6Create a page called "index.html" as it will be required. You can use a template to design the pages. These are provided on the Internet, many at no charge. Your software may have templates you can use. Now you must HTP your files to the server (perhaps GoDaddy). HTP programs are available for free and your software may contain an HTP program. Follow your hosting company's instructions. (Got a friend with a website? Just ask for a hand.)
7Start writing articles of interest to those who might visit your site. At the bottom of the article use the resource box to say something like "to learn more about growing carrots, go to http://www.MYSite.com/growingcarrots.html". Write the page you just told your reader to go to (before you publish he article).
8Decide what product you are going to sell. Maybe it is a Clickbank.com product or one from CJ.com or such. Place this link at the bottom of your growingcarrots.html page. Maybe a reader who had been warmed up by you giving more relevant information will click on your link if it offers more information with a product he or she can purchase.
9Offer a free ebook you write or take from the Internet to those who will leave their name and address. This offer should be placed on your index page and any other page that needs it. Send more information to your visitors on the subject they are interested. Do not try to hard sell customers. Just tell them where to visit for more information or useful products.
10Offer other products by creating other web pages, writing articles, etc.
11When you are making some money, consider PPC or pay-per-click advertising (a risky business). Keep track of your costs, your successes and errors. Never stop learning! Stay away from the gurus!

So my challenge was to figure out a way to turn these little spoons into little angels...
Materials for Creating the Angel Ornament
- mini plastic spoons (from wedding section of Dollar Tree)
- piece of thin cotton fabric
- crocheted ribbon (I found mine at Target)
- holly picks (Hobby Lobby)
- twine (Dollar Tree)
- evergreen sticks (Hobby Lobby)(for hanging ornament)
- glue gun and glue sticks
- good pair of scissors (for cutting fabric)
Fold it in half lengthwise. With a good pair of fabric scissors, cut 1/4 inch wide strips a little bit more than halfway up the doubled fabric.
Now fold the uncut top part over as in the picture above. Roll the folded piece around the neck of the spoon. Don't glue yet.
Next bend the wire of the holly pick over to its back as in the photo above. You will use the stem of the pick to insert into the top of the dress. (You may need to loosen the fabric so that the stem will ft down the top part of it). At this point you can add a dab of hot glue to the rag dress so that it doesn't unravel and holds the holly in place. (Be careful not to glue the dress to the spoon yet). Turn the open end of the fabric to the back so that it is not visible.
Once it has been tied, you can cut the bottom outside edges at a curve, so that they more resemble wings.
At this point you can go ahead and hot glue all the pieces in place from the back.
I decided to use the evergreen stick to hang the angel on the tree as it helped the lace "wings" to stay in place and stay straight. And it made the angel seem as though it was floating on the tree...
If you would like to see another Dollar Store Angel Ornament that I made last year... you can find the link HERE

Liberalism and Hegemony: Debating the Canadian Liberal RevolutionBy: Michel Ducharme (author), Jean-Francois Constant (author)Hardback
1 - 2 weeks availability
DescriptionIn 2000, Ian McKay, a highly respected historian at Queen's University, published an article in the Canadian Historical Review entitled "The Liberal Order Framework: A Prospectus for a Reconnaissance of Canadian History." Written to address a crisis in Canadian history, this detailed, programmatic, and well-argued article had an immediate impact on the field. Proposing that Canadian history should be mapped through a process of reconnaisance, and that the Canadian state should be understood as a project of liberal rule in North America, the essay prompted debate immediately upon publication. Liberalism and Hegemony assembles some of Canada's finest historians to continue the debate sparked by McKay's essay. The essays collected here explore the possibilities and limits presented by "The Liberal Order Framework" for various segments of Canadian history, and within them, the paramount influence of liberalism throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries is debated in the context of aboriginal history, environmental history, the history of the family, the development of political thought and ideas, and municipal governance. Like McKay's "The Liberal Order Framework," which is included in this volume with a response to recent criticism, Liberalism and Hegemony is a fascinating foray into current historical thought and provides the historical community with a book that will act both as a reference and a guide for future research.

Girl listed in critical condition in one of two near-drownings
A 6-year-old girl was in critical condition and placed on a ventilator after she was found not breathing in a pool, one of two near-drownings on Sunday afternoon that the Orange County Fire Authority said was "preventable."
The girl and her 3-year-old sister were left unattended in a backyard pool in the 22000 block of Boltana in Mission Viejo, said OCFA Capt. Steve Concialdi.
When the father checked on the girls, he found the 6-year-old underwater and jumped into the pool to retrieve her about 4:40 p.m., Concialdi said. She wasn't breathing and it was unknown how long she was underwater.
A neighbor who works as a paramedic ran to the house after he heard several screams and tried to resuscitate the girl, Concialdi said. Firefighters continued to perform CPR on the girl until they finally got a pulse en route to Mission Hospital.
Attending firefighters were so traumatized by the rescue that the OCFA sent a chaplain to provide counseling, Concialdi said.
Ninety minutes earlier, a 3-year-old boy was reported to be underwater for about 30 seconds until his father pulled him out of a community pool just after 3 p.m. at the Corte Bella condominium complex along Lombardi Aisle in Irvine, Concialdi said.
The father administered CPR until the boy started to vomit, Concialdi said. Paramedics found that the toddler had water in his lungs and took him to Children's Hospital of Orange County in Orange.
Countywide, there have been 6 drownings and 9 near-drownings so far this year, Concialdi said. At this same time last year, there had been 10 drownings and 9 near-drownings, he added.
"Every single one of these has been preventable because you cannot leave your child unattended," Concialdi said. "Childrern can drown without a sound, and it only takes seconds to happen."

Would you watch television on the Internet?
Asked at Hy-Vee Food Store, 4000 W. Sixth St. on August 30, 2009
"Yes. It's easier, more convenient."
"Probably not. I'm not on the Internet that much."
"Yes, I have, because I missed it when it was on TV."
"Most definitely, (for its) convenience."
labmonkey 7 years, 5 months ago
I had to catch Sarah Connor Chronicles on the internet when FOX stupidly put it on Friday night.
Watch out for Skynet.
persevering_gal 7 years, 5 months ago
Not with Sunflower charging me for extra broadband!
zettapixel 7 years, 5 months ago
We already watch television on the Internet thanks to the new Palladium plan that Sunflower has out. Costs the same as the Gold package we had with no cap on data.
tangential_reasoners_anonymous 7 years, 5 months ago
I don't even watch television on the television.
Leslie Swearingen 7 years, 5 months ago
No. My television is larger than my monitor. Also, I have basic Internet which gives me everything I want to do and I don't want to pay more for something I don't need anyway.
Mary Darst 7 years, 5 months ago
Only if my television was broken. Although, when I am bored at work, I have thought about it.
tomatogrower 7 years, 5 months ago
I like to watch TV with my husband, so I prefer a big screen. I never drink alone either.
jenng 7 years, 5 months ago
I already do. I watch all TV via the internet or checking out DVDs from the library or Liberty Hall. Sunflower cable cost too much & I use Freenet so I don't have to worry about band caps.
zikzak 7 years, 5 months ago
Oh yes I certainly do! Now with Palladium there are no overages from Sunflower! Thank you Sunflower for that!
I hate recording shows I miss so I just grab 'em off the net when I am ready to watch. Youtube and Hulu are great sites that now have full movies and some old TV that is real fun to catch.
I was worried that I wouldn't want to watch shows on my PC screen, so my husband set up our 42" TV as a gigantic monitor.
Bill Lee 7 years, 5 months ago
Most TV shows on the internet (YouTube, Hulu, AOL, or the network sites) don't affect Sunflower charges because the shows aren't being downloaded. Now, if you choose to do that so you can save the shows for repeated watching on your big screen after burning them to disc, then your broadband charges might be affected depending on your plan. There are thousands of current or past shows available. I've been watching old westerns like "Have Gun, Will Travel" online this week.
Alexander Neighbors 7 years, 5 months ago
No I watch it on a free to air receiver
Sigmund 7 years, 5 months ago
Since my favorite shows aren't available in the US in their original form I download them from the interwebs and then watch them when and where I can. That said I am fairly happy with Sunflower's Extend Basic or Bronzed (or whatever) TV service (no converter boxes and ClearQAM) with the exception that Versus HD is encrypted. Why I have no idea since everything else Digital and/or HD in that package is in the clear.
Given DSL's relatively slow speed (which doesn't impact me all that much except for uploads), I'm considering ATT Uverse for my broadband and possibly all-in-one for TV and phone as well. Sunflower's Palladium service looks to be their Bronze level service without the download upload limits ("probably") but with the possibility you may occasionally get Gold level speeds when your segment isn't that busy. Which isn't too bad except when are their segments "not to busy?"

"My monitor would have to be at least 32" for me to do it."
Get a modern TV that you can attach to your computer. Our 42" flat screen is attached to our media center computer by HDMI, full high-def 1080p. More and more computers, and more and more TVs, have this capability. Even with older TVs and computers, it's likely you can connect them with a standard definition connection with composite A/V cables.
March Madness on demand - every single NCAA tournament basketball game available (for free). Missed your favorite show and forgot to record it? Many networks have episodes available for watching (again, 'free,' although with commercials) almost immediately after the show's original broadcast. The internet also has TV shows from around the world available to watch, a nice novelty for our family, even better if you actually speak the language, have been to that country, or are from there and like to keep in touch with local news broadcasts and so forth.
Would I watch ALL my TV on the internet? I'm not sure it would make much difference, if the quality improves just a little bit.

notajayhawk 7 years, 5 months ago
Be happy to help walk you through it, or at least tell you whether it's possible with your equipment. That is, if you have any interest in doing so. If you're happy with watching TV the way you do, why mess with it?
The major reason ours is hooked up to the computer is because we have over 1,000 movies stored on the media center. If it wasn't for that, I probably wouldn't have bothered building the media center computer in the first place. My wife would probably be a lot happier in March/April if I had to watch the basketball games sitting at one of the other computers instead of taking over the living room! :)
SpeedRacer 7 years, 5 months ago
Certainly. Who wouldn't want to watch it on a 16 inch screen with crappy sound instead of a 60 inch screen with 5.1 theater surround.
zettapixel 7 years, 5 months ago
A lot of you don't seem to get that you can connect your computer to a 60" HDTV and the audio inputs on your DVD / Blu-Ray player. We do this here at home after ditching cable and the results have been excellent.

Dessert Makeovers
Everyone likes dessert—but nowhere else do the evils of white flour, sugar, and saturated fat converge in such a perfect storm, making your blood sugar surge. In terms of glycemic load and extra calories, most desserts are the last thing you need. But that doesn't mean dessert in general is off-limits. When the cake comes around, don't say no; instead, say, "I'll take half a piece please, with lots of berries on top."
Our Top Four Dessert Guidelines
- 1.
Think fruit, fruit, fruit.
It's sweet and refreshing and easily transformed into an almost endless variety of attractive, easy-to-make desserts.
- 2.
Watch portion sizes.
The truth is, you can eat whatever you like if the portion is small enough. Use a small plate, such as a saucer, or a child-size cereal bowl for ice cream to help make smaller portions look more substantial. Or, to make your dessert fill up a big plate or bowl, add fruit such as pineapple, blueberries, or banana.
- 3.
Hunt for whole grains.
Most baked goods are made with white flour, but they don't have to be. In fact, many of our dessert recipes cut down the amount of white flour in favor of blood sugar–friendly oats, whole wheat flour, and so on.
- 4.
Go low fat.
Whether it's the ice cream you buy or the cream cheese you put in your cheesecake, make it reduced fat to avoid the nasty saturated fats that hamper your body's ability to handle blood sugar.
- 5.
Think of dessert as a treat—not a daily habit.
Indulge twice a week to keep your sweet tooth happy. The rest of the week, top off dinner with an evening stroll instead.
Thanks! You're on our list.
And about to get a whole lot healthier.
Some people like to travel by train because it combines the slowness of a car with the cramped public exposure of an airplane.

I'm sorry but your 2 most compelling reasons for upgrading to Win 10 are how file copies are handled and command prompt properties options? Exactly what % of Windows users does this serve?

In my somewhat unique profession, I do route surveys for oversized loads. Which means my contracted employer gives me dimensions of an object that needs to be transported over public thoroughfares, from here to there, and it's my job to determine how to get it there.
I still use an LG Nexus 4, from what, two years ago? I can print maps, routes, location pics, Google Earth, and anything else I want or need from this phone, in 99% + of anywhere in this country.
OS management/understanding is paramount with any flavor of any modern device.
Roku offers no pay-per-view that I'm aware of. It asks for a credit card number when you create an account, but it is not required.
With the Roku 3 box, you add the Plex channel to your channel list and add the Plex Media Server to your pc. It works flawlessly. Alternatively, RARflix is a turbo charged Plex clone that works with the Plex Media Server. I assume the dongle would work the same.
The Roku remote app for Android delivers way more functionality than the included remote. It allows you to play media stored on your phone, limited voice navigation, allows the use of the phone's keyboard searches and account information entry as opposed to using the arrow rocker to enter one character at a time.

People just want their stuff to work. They don't care about kernels, builds, KDE. It's Greek to them.
As long as the Linux distro's require a more than basic tech-saviness, just for installation, Linux will never go anywhere.
You want it more widespread? All you fanboi's, make the installation idiot proof. People do not know nor do the care what partition is. Or dual-booting.
For me! I have Ubuntu and Open Solaris but rarely do use them because of limited driver support for modems. Have put Linux on at least a half dozen machines and the problem is always the same, no drivers for the modems. I neither have the time or desire to go replace all that. Some kind of open source wall if you will.
So, make the installation relatively painless. And better driver support for modems. Until that happens, continue whining about it in your IRC chats
They're over reacting... I've heard 4 or 5 tracks fron the GNR myspace page. While Roses voice has matured nicely... it can't carry the horrid mix of bad techno meets rock and roll.

Sorry to be anti-climactic here Mr. Haines, but a hurricanes wrath is a gradual process.
It is not uncommon for an area to lose power hours before the hurricane 'actually' comes ashore. Galveston had to have been battered for a significant amount of time before these webcams (Galveston as a whole) lost power, fourteen to sixteen hours before Ikes eye wall 'officially' hit at around 2am on the 13th.
The eye wall is not a determinating factor as to who loses power and who doesn't. As witnessed by the hundreds of thousands of people that were flooded, suffered wind damage and/or lost power east from the Galveston/Houston area, back into western Louisiana.
While the eyewall has dangerous conditions associated with it, the outer bands of the storms can cause significant damage in and of themselves. Ikes sheer size caused problems days before land fall, with flooding along Louisiana's gulf coast south of the New Orleans area. You could follow the flooding and/or power outages west from there, without Ike ever officially making land fall in Louisiana.

Contrary to how some riders feel when riding BART, the trains are pretty damn safe. At least that's what we gleaned from the latest news: The Transportation Security Administration gave BART the highest rating possible when it comes to keeping its passengers secure, despite all the assaults, shootings, knife-fights, and naked acrobats.
Now that's news.
According to a press release, the TSA awarded BART this "Gold Standard" rating for multiple reasons, including the transit agency's security plans, security training, drills/exercise programs, public outreach efforts, and finally, its background check programs.
Still confused, we contacted BART spokeswoman Luna Salaver to find out more about how safe we are on trains, however she told us that was a question for the TSA. So we contacted the TSA to ask the same question. Interestingly enough, the TSA told us that question was best for BART to answer.
What we do know is that after a comprehensive assessment of BART's security program (whatever that means), BART scored high across the board in the TSA's Baseline Assessments for Security Enhancement (BASE) program, which creates security standards for transit agencies across the nation.
According to the TSA, BART is one of 16 rail and mass transit agencies from across the nation to get the "Gold Standard" rating this year.
"Bay Area Rapid Transit is to be commended for their commitment and hard work that this level of achievement requires," said TSA Administrator John S. Pistole. "TSA commends these agencies for the continued dedication individual transit agencies demonstrate every day to ensure the security of travelers nationwide."
BART Police Chief Kenton Rainey was pretty stoked to hear the news himself. "We ask the public to continue to play a key role by reporting behavior or conditions that are suspicious to BART Police at 510-464-7000."

Installing and uninstalling programs bungs up your system, costing you disk space and speed. This is how to clean your PC so it's as good as new. Now there's no reason to let the lack of a decent uninstall program slow your system down, gulping up disk space while doing so. Armed with our tips, you can return your system to the pristine condition in which you found it. You'll be freed from the tyranny of downloaded programs forever and improve the reliability of your PC too.
Create a backup!
Fine tuning and spring-cleaning your system is all well and good, but make sure you've backed everything up first.
You know the importance of backups. But there's another reason for backing up your data, and that's when you've decided that enough's enough, and it's time to wipe your hard drive clean and start from scratch. In this case, you'll need to do the following first:
Create a boot disk
The first thing to do is create a boot disk with your CD drivers on it. This enables you to wipe your hard drive clean and be able to access your Windows CD when it comes to reinstalling it from scratch. You can create an emergency boot disk in Windows itself – open up the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel and switch to the Startup Disk tab.
Back up your system files
The following files could all be considered vital to the successful running of Windows. If one gets corrupted you might find yourself unable to boot into Windows, forcing you to reinstall it (and from there all your applications).
To protect your system files in case of catastrophe, you should regularly back them up. You can use Windows own Backup utility for this job.
Although many of your device drivers might have been loaded from the Windows CD when you first set up your PC, others – like recent 3D cards or newer soundcards – require you to use a driver CD in order to load in the required driver. In both cases, just make sure you have your Windows CD and respective driver disks to hand.
On the other hand, you might have recently downloaded an updated driver from the Internet. If this is the case, it's unlikely that you'll have copied this to a safe place so – unless you want to have to download the same update again after a fresh format and reinstall of Windows, you'll need to locate it and copy it to a floppy disk.
Open up the System Control Panel, and switch to the Device Manager tab. Double-click on the device in question to open it up, then highlight the device and click on Properties. Switch to the Driver tab and you should see one of two things.
The text No driver files are required or have been loaded for this device tells you that the driver was installed along with Windows, so there's no need to worry. If the option to view Driver File Details is given, click on it. You'll see a list of all the driver files which have been loaded, plus where they are on your hard drive. Make a note of this, then copy the relevant files to a safe place.
Configuration files
These files include registration codes (for shareware products and the like) and files that store how you've set up various applications. Finding these files can be quite difficult, and in the case of application setups, you'll probably find customising the application again should you ever have to reinstall it is quicker than trying to find the relevant files now.
Data files
Last, but not least, are your precious data files (text documents, images and so on). The question is, where do you keep your data files? Chances are most of them will be stored in the conveniently named My Documents folder. Unfortunately, other applications will prefer to store data files in their own directories so – unless you're particularly rigid about where you store your data – you might have to go on a little trek around your hard drive to locate them all. If you're worried about missing any out, load up all your applications in turn and check that you don't have any files you might have missed out.
The importance of uninstalling
Just how important is uninstalling software as opposed to just deleting it? We tell you what you need to know.
If you came over from another type of computer or grew up with the PC's early MS-DOS heritage, you may well find that old habits die hard – and that you get rid of unwanted applications by simply deleting them as you would a data file. Don't – under modern 32-bit flavours of Windows, this can be a recipe for disaster. At worst, you could bring your system to a halt, stop other programs from running or even prevent your PC from booting. At best, you end up with a slow, bloated and unhealthy Windows installation.
From Windows 95 onwards, 32-bit applications store key information in a large file called the Registry. Entries range from the simple (a key telling a program where to find its own files, for example) to some of the most spaghetti-like nightmare code ever. When a program installs, it adds these keys, and they may be changed at a later date. An average application may also install lots of DLLs, or take over certain file extenders for itself. Trashing a program leaves it all behind, clogging up the Registry and wasting valuable memory and disk space – and this will inevitably result in a slower and less reliable system.
Windows comes with a tool to remove applications properly – the Add/Remove Programs icon found in Control Panel. In theory, this should eradicate everything a program installed onto your PC, but often, DLL files or other components will be left to litter the hard drive, and an alarming number of applications still seem to leave their own particular detritus scattered throughout the Registry – but it's still better than dropping a program's directory on the Trash can and hoping for the best.
What can I do about it?
Read on and we'll show you how to tidy up the junk that applications leave behind. Plus, learn what other weapons are at your disposal as you fight the Windows flab.

Read on and we'll show you how to tidy up the junk that applications leave behind. Plus, learn what other weapons are at your disposal as you fight the Windows flab.
Cleaning the Windows folder
Keeping a clean Windows folder will save you space and speed up Windows too. This is how to do it:
Your Windows directory and the System directory within it contains a mass of files, even at installation. Every application you install adds its own files and over time the directories can grow to alarming sizes.
Although many of the files are absolutely vital there's also a fair number that you can get rid of. Even after uninstalling an application, you'll find that files can be left floating about with no purpose in life. You then lose valuable disk space and Windows also slows down by a significant degree. This is because it spends a lot of time looking through the Windows directory and so, obviously, a smaller directory is a faster directory.
Remember – never delete anything if you are unsure, you can always copy files to a floppy or another directory first if you have any doubts. Take a look below for our guide to what can go and what can stay.
What can you remove safely from the Windows folder?
Knowing what's inside the Windows folder is the first step to cleaning it up. Here's what kind of files you should be looking for.
Inside the INF folder File extension: inf
What are they? Information files holding hardware configuration details used when Windows 98 installs drivers from the Windows 98 CD-ROM. Can you delete them? Only if you never want to install the drivers from the Windows 98 CD-ROM; read them first.
Inside the Command folder
File extension: bat
What are they? Batch files, these execute a series of DOS commands when run.
Can you delete them? Read them first, any that refer to deleted applications or those you don't need can die.
File extension: com
What are they? Executable programs.
Can you delete them? Depends what they are, some are vital and others are junk, only delete if you know exactly what the application is and know for sure you don't want it.
Inside the Help folder
File extension: hlp
What are they? The main part of the Help file.
Can you delete them? Only if you're positive that you don't want to read the Help file again.
File extension: cnt
What are they? Along with .hlp these form an application's Help files.
Can you delete them? Yes, if you don't want to use Help for that application.

Can you delete them? No problem, Windows 98 will just create another when you use the Help file.

File extension: acm
What are they? Audio compression CODECs.
Can you delete them? Only if you enjoy total silence.
File extension: vxd
What are they? Virtual device driver files.

Can you delete them? Use Windows Setup from the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel to remove any that you're sure you don't want.

Can you delete them? Again, only if you're sure that you'll never want to watch any video files again!

What are they? TrueType Fonts.
Can you delete them? Any you don't use can go, although some applications put fonts that they use here though.
File extension: scr
What are they? Screen savers.
Can you delete them? Delete any you don't use.

Can you delete them? No – most are vital, although some deleted applications leave unused ones. If you must remove them, proceed with caution, and copy them to a floppy.
File extension: bmp
What are they? Bitmap pictures used for Wallpaper.
Can you delete them? Certainly.
File extension: ini
What are they? Initiation files (configuration details).
Can you delete them? If the application that used the particular file has gone, then yes.
File extension: txt
What are they? Text files.
Can you delete them? Yes, read them to see what they're on about first though.
File extension: ico
What are they? Icon files
Can you delete them? Yes.
File extension: starting with ~
What are they? Temporary files.
Can you delete them? Yes.
File extension: pwl

Can you delete them? Only if you want to lose your password, obviously enough.
File extension: —-
What are they? Backups, usually of .ini files made during the installation of an application.
Can you delete them? Usually no problem, but copy them to a floppy first if you're in any doubt as to what their effect may be.
File extension: exe
What are they? Executable files, mostly programs.
Can you delete them? Some are integral to Windows so beware. If you know what the application is and it doesn't have a proper uninstall routine then go ahead.
File extension: old
What are they? Old versions of files, usually you'll find they're configuration files.
Can you delete them? Yes, but copy them across to a floppy first if you're a bit nervous.
Getting rid of old files and Registry info
You'd be surprised how many old files and Registry entries are left around to clutter up your hard drive. But we've got just the solution to clean them out.
EasyCleaner (www.toniarts.com/) is a program on a mission, and that mission is to keep your PC lean and trim by helping you rid it of useless files while keeping the Registry free from trouble.
As the central storage area for all kinds of system information, you would expect the Registry to become clogged up with all kinds of unnecessary stuff, especially since most uninstall programs don't do a very good job with it. With this in mind, it's well worth keeping it maintained, and you can do this with one of two programs, MS RegClean or EasyCleaner. Both polish their way through the Registry like dental floss between teeth, getting rid of those awkward morsels of program which have remained even after a thorough system clear-out. Old keys will be teased out and annihilated and the Registry will be made faster too.
EasyCleaner goes much further than this though: it can also find duplicate files and remove them, freeing up disk space. It'll also ferret out all those junk files like backups, temporary files and so on. Note: before using either program, back up your Registry first. You can do this from Microsoft's System Information Utility — access it from Programs, Accessories, System Tools on the Start Menu. From the Tools menu select Registry Checker and take a backup before proceeding. If you can't find the System Information Utility, chances are it hasn't been installed on your PC. You'll find it on your Windows 98 CD.

Get organised (1)
Make sure your bookmarks/favourites are organised so you can easily find them. Take time out to create folders and sub-folders that are easy to navigate, and don't allow your bookmarks to overflow with rarely visited sites and deadends – remember, URLs change and Web sites come and go.
Get organised (2)
What's your e-mail inbox looking like? Chances are it's full to overflowing with mail you haven't been bothered to file away. What happens when you want to find an important e-mail? You've got to go wading through it all, and that can only slow you and your PC down.
The simple solution to this mess is organise it. Create a set of folders you can file stuff into (for example, when a Web site e-mails you your user ID and password required to log on to it, file it away in a safe, easily accessible place). Regularly clear out the trash too – the more mail you have, the slower your e-mail program becomes.
Install only what you need
Be very careful when installing Internet Explorer. Always select the Custom install option, and make sure the elements you select are those you will actually want to use. You can always install extra components should you need them at a later date.
Update your backups!
After installing Internet Explorer, immediately make a backup of your system files. A lot of changes are made to Windows by Internet Explorer, so protect your system by making it capable of resurrecting Internet Explorer after a crash.
Stopping the tyranny of cookies Take your eyes off the biscuit bin – cookies are text files sent to your PC by Web sites when you're happily browsing on the Web. Here's how to deal with the more unscrupulous ones:
Cookie files are text files originally used to make it easy to log on to Web sites without having to enter all your details a second time.
Nevertheless, some Web-site operators use them to build up a profile of you so they can them bombard you with useless advertising, which is very thoughtful of them, but not what we want.
If you want to protect yourself from them, do the following: In Internet Explorer, find the cookie folder in Windows and in Preferences, alter it to read-only. From within Internet Explorer itself go to View, Option, Advanced and uncheck the Warn before accepting a cookie option.
Preventative maintenance
We've shown you loads of ways to clean up and maintain your system to its optimum – how to uninstall software properly, monitor the Windows folder and even start again from scratch when you feel your machine is too clogged up in its current state. But there's plenty of other ways you can keep your PC lean, clean and mean. Just check out these top tips:
Empty that TEMP folder
Items in the TEMP folder are, well, supposed to be temporary. But you'd be surprised just how many files stick around past their sell by date. Make it your life's aim to regularly check on the status of the Windows\Temp\ directory just after startup, ruthlessly deleting anything you find inside it.
Too many fonts?
Don't let your Windows\Fonts\ folder fill up with fonts you never use, because all they'll do is slow Windows down at startup and result in a sluggish system. Move any you're unlikely to use often to another directory (if you ever need them you can always move them back again). Make sure you leave the raster fonts alone, though – they're the ones marked with a red 'A' – your system definitely needs these.
Use the system tools in Windows 98
The easiest way to keep on top of things in Windows 98 is to use the OS's inbuilt cleaning tools. Use Disk Cleanup to scan a selected drive for redundant files (downloads, Recycle Bin and Temp files among others) that you can safely delete in one go or – better still – schedule the Maintenance wizard. This will automatically run Disk Defragmenter, Scan Disk and Disk Cleanup at user-defined intervals.
Don't go overboard with customising
The fact is, you've got a simple choice – if your PC is struggling to cope with all the customisations you've given it (Active Desktop, installed themes and so on), the best thing to do is cut back. Too much fancy stuff will only bog down Windows and result in a sluggish PC, so to keep it in tip-top condition, be very careful what customisations you add to it.
Backing up
Think of all those files you've downloaded, be they complete packages, registration codes or just program updates. Where have you put them all? Save time and money by storing them on removable disk, so that should you ever have to reinstall Windows you won't need to go back on-line to download them all again.
Be careful what you install
The more programs you install and uninstall, such as trial versions and time-limited demos, the more you'll clog Windows up. One way around this is to take a backup of your important system files before you install the trial, test it out over a day or two without installing any other software, then uninstall it and restore your system settings to what they were before you first installed the software.
You can do this with Windows' own Backup utility, but an easier way to do it is with software like McAfee's Uninstaller. The program features a backtrack feature which can often return your PC to the state it was in before you installed the software.
How to defragment your hard disk
The best way to keep your hard drive in tip-top condition, and ensure that files are stored together instead of being scattered all over the drive, is by regularly running Disk Defragmenter. You'll find it in the Start Menu, under Programs, Accessories, System Tools. Oh, and don't forget to turn off your screensaver before running it – it can take a while, and any disk access during this time forces Disk Defragmenter to start again.
How to reinstall Windows
Sometimes the best remedy is to start again from the beginning. We show you how to wipe clean your drive and start again.
WARNING – READ THIS FIRST: The following procedure will wipe your hard drive clean, removing all of its data. DO NOT FOLLOW THIS PROCEDURE UNLESS YOU ARE 100 PER CENT SURE AND CONFIDENT OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
There are times when the old Douglas Adams maxim of "don't panic!" springs to mind, and starting from scratch with a complete re-install of Windows is certainly one of them. It may seem daunting if you've never done it before, but there's no reason it should be. In fact, we'd recommend that you take the plunge and do it voluntarily at least once per year – or more, if you install and remove a lot of downloaded software, game demos, trial versions and so on. Think of it as colonic irrigation for your PC – not nice, but it does the system good to flush it out periodically.
Thanks to the rapidly falling prices of hard-drive mechanisms and the appearance of disk-imaging programs, a clean install of Windows isn't the trauma it used to be. An average freshly installed Windows 98 system installed using the 'Typical' option takes up around 150Mb. Programs like SnapBack can capture an exact copy to another drive – a cheap hard drive purely for back-up purposes is very affordable these days. With a virgin install of Windows imaged to another drive, you need never look at the Windows install screen again…
Get ready
Before you begin, make sure you're properly prepared. If you're reinstalling Windows on an existing system, make sure you've backed up any important data files you can't afford to lose. As we stressed earlier, formatting your hard drive removes ALL data from it, forever – without a backup, there is no way you can recover your files once the drive has been formatted. Don't just think about data files, either – if you're on the Internet, note down all of your Dial-Up Networking settings to save time later. If you've registered any shareware or other software on-line, make sure you note down any serial numbers or passwords – you'll need to reinstall them later.
Once you're sure you've kept copies of everything important, make sure that you physically have everything to hand that you'll need during the install. Dig out the driver floppies or CDs for every piece of hardware you own.
Windows 98 in particular comes with an impressive list of directly supported hardware, but you should always have the manufacturer disks handy too, just in case. Obviously, you'll need your Windows Installation CD and serial number, too.
Find a good quality and reliable floppy disk, and make yourself a new boot disk if you don't have one already. Finally, before you commit yourself for real, boot from the disk to make sure it's useable – make absolutely sure that you can read your Windows Install CD from your CD-ROM drive while booted from this floppy before reformatting.
Format your drive
Once you have everything you need to hand then you're ready to format your drive. If your hard drive is split into multiple partitions, each one will have its own drive letter and will be accessed by Windows as a completely separate entity. If your 4Gb drive is split into two partitions of 2Gb each, they'll be labelled C: and D: and are effectively two individual disks as far as Windows and DOS are concerned. For this step of the procedure, we want to completely reformat the primary boot drive, labelled C:. If you're not happy with your partition sizes or want to split the drive into multiple partitions, now is the time to do it before you actually format.
After formatting, insert the boot floppy you created, and restart your PC as you normally would. The boot floppy created by Windows 98 will present you with a boot menu, so make sure you choose option 1, to boot the PC with CD-ROM support.
Install Windows
Now switch to your CD-ROM drive by typing the drive letter followed by a colon and hitting [Return] – depending on how many partitions your drives have, the letter for the CD drive may vary, but is usually G: if you booted with a Windows 98 floppy. Type CD WIN98 and hit [Return], then type SETUP to launch the Windows setup application and begin the process. If you've never installed Windows before, just select the Typical option.
Install drivers
Once the numerous re-boots have finished, Windows will begin to identify your various bits of hardware and look for drivers for them. If Windows can't find a driver for a device, you'll need to insert the disk which came with it, and tell Windows where to find it – just browse to the floppy or CD.
Three steps to a formatted hard drive
Reformatting your hard drive is a simple operation – just follow these steps to an empty hard drive.
When you finally arrive at the MS-DOS command prompt, you're ready to format the boot drive. Type FORMAT C: at the prompt and hit [Return]. You'll see a message, warning you that all data on the non-removable disk will be lost, and asking you to confirm the format – type Y and hit [Return] again.
DOS will begin to format your hard drive. If this particular drive has been previously formatted, the format command will take a slight shortcut here, and simply verify that the existing format is okay, rather than performing a complete formatting operation – don't worry, this is normal under the most recent versions of DOS.
Once the format has finished, you'll be prompted for a volume label to name your drive or partition. As with a floppy, choose any name up to eleven characters in length, or just hit [Return] for a nameless drive – you can easily change this later once Windows is installed and running, anyway.

Margot & the Nuclear So & So's
Urban Folk Scarf Rock: That's how Margot & the Nuclear So & So's were billed at last fall's South Park Music Festival. Someone was being cheeky -- there's no way that anyone who'd heard this Indianapolis-based act could genuinely claim that it had crafted a new, wholly unique sound that merited the creation of yet another subgenre. I mean, The Dust of Retreat -- the act's debut disc slated for re-release later this year on Artemis Records -- is a swell record, sure, but it doesn't really push any envelopes. Thing is, it doesn't need to. Guided by Richard Edwards's tuneful, soothing croon, Retreat is easy like Sunday morning. Rollicking one minute and subtly ornate the next, with muted trumpets murmuring against splashes of melodica and streaks of weeping cello, Margot's austere folk pop is pleasing enough on its own without the snickering qualifiers. Then again, cutesy sarcasm is only fitting for an outfit whose name was inspired by The Royal Tenenbaums.

dernier criplay
Definition of dernier cri
: the newest fashion
Examples of dernier cri in a sentence
<when deconstructionism became the dernier cri in literary criticism>
Did You Know?
Paris has long been the last word in fashion, but hot designer clothes from the city's renowned runways aren't the only stylish French exports. Words, too, sometimes come with a French label. Dernier cri, literally "last cry," is one such chic French borrowing. The word is no trendy fad, however. More than a century has passed since "dernier cri" was the latest thing on the English language scene (and cut-steel jewelry was declared the dernier cri by the Westminster Gazette of December 10, 1896), but the term (unlike cut-steel) remains as modish as ever. Other fashionable French words have walked the runways of the English language since then: "blouson" (1904); "couture" (1908); "culotte" (1911); "lamé" (a clothing fabric, 1922); and "bikini" (1947), to name a few.
Origin and Etymology of dernier cri
French, literally, last cry
First Known Use: 1896
