    Been Expelled

    Yeh, sounds like something more than meets the eye is going on here. jmb2006 are you giving us the whole story? If you used the school network to log onto the internet, you were in the wrong. I would interpret this to be a kind of hacking, myself. Naughty, naughty. However, I think that suspension would have been an appropriate punishment. Expelling you is a little harsh.
  2. Dog will usually regurgitate (nicer word than puke) because the food they have taken it has stayed in the stomach too long. This can be cause by something slowing down the evacuation of the stomach content. Our poodle had this problem created by a spasm in a muscle surrounding the entrance into the small intestine. It is quite correctable. The spasm is usually caused by, believe it or not, anxiety. Meds can usually do the job. Surgery may be required and somewhat expensive. But well worth checking out to save all the mess you have from what has been going on for so long.
  3. This is an outrage. Is Uncle Yosef able to speak? If he can't, somebody must speak for him. Try contacting his doctor. The nurses are probably only doing what the orders tell them to do. The doctor wrote and signed the orders as to where to send him and how he is to be treated (medically). You must find out why this is happening. Who is his guardian or next of kin? Good Luck!
  4. This is short and sweet. Do tell us something about you. Welcome to the forum. There are lots of helpful people here. You should enjoy yourself. Hmm. What does Albus know about your website makings? Does he have some inside scoop about the theme and subject of your site? Let us in on that, will you? Post a url if you have something up already elsewhere so we can see what you are all about.
  5. Hi! NovaTerra from one of the elders of the forums. I am into web design also. I am told my designs are dated, but somebody needs to fill that need for the beginning homepage builder. So you are into music. What do you play? Music was my minor in college. I played the piccolo and flute in the marching band. Played the flute and tenor sax in the jazz band. Wanted to be a veterinarian, but didn't get there. Ended up in animal husbandry later in life. Raised and trained horses for some 20 years. You are into human suffering prevention I see. So many people have pulmonary problems, especially in my age bracket. I am here for the hosting as well, but who can criticize that?
  6. The one that is the most ANNOYING is that "Hit the Clown and get a free cell ringtone" The clown's laugh is the most horrific thing I have ever heard. This one even locks up my page loading sometimes. And there is no way to shut the stupid clown up except mute or hitting the stop button at the top of my browser. Hitting the stop button of course stops loading the page altogether. Grrrr. I do understand the need to have the ads here instead of on my pages, so no complaint about this. Just need to vent about that Clown thing.
  7. Well thay make protective skins for keyboards that save the day when you spill liquids on them.Do they make skins for phones ? Sounds like you could use one. Just thought I would ask.

    Hello Guys

    Hello UA. Unknown huh? Well anybody named Alan is right with me. Welcome to Trap 17 from one of the elder members. If you are looking for reliable hosting, you have come to the right place. I have been here since January and everything is working just fine. The people here are really helpful. They are answering all my questions and then some. I have revamped my .com while uploading to Trap 17 with the advice of many. Even learning many new ideas along the way. You will be happy here, if you get hosted. Start posting lots of information in the forums and get hosted soon. Good Luck!
  9. In most cases it is not that a man doesn't want to pay child support for his children, but he resents the fact that he has to pay it to their mother. I think it is more of a control issue than a money issue. If a man pays money to the mother of his child(ren) then she has control over the way it is spent. If the father was allowed to control how the child support was used, he would probably be more willing to pay it. Most men seem to fear that the "child support" will be used as "alimony". Unfortunately, a lot of the time this is the case.
  10. Maybe this will be redundant, but swearing is a problem today because of all of the above mentioned things going on in the world. Just like the increase in violence. Lack of parental control tho cannot all be attributed to the parents themselves. It is difficult to raise a child in today's world and I am glad I don't have to. What with all the interference parents contend with from outside sources, especially the legal system. You hear constantly about some smart lawyer helping some wise kid sue his/her parents over some petty thing. I don't mean the truely legitimate cases where the child really needs help such as abuse. But, young children seem to get the idea from outside sources that they don't have to "mind" their parents. It probably has to do with a very young person's inablility to really understand circumstances, so they get wild ideas. I can remember when I was raising my teenage daughter. The principal at her school told me he wasn't there to "police" the children when I asked his help in not letting her leave the campus during lunch hour. She was getting into trouble outside school and as a single working parent, I wasn't available. So, she took the principal's answer to mean that she had the right to do as she pleased during school hours. Now, if she got away with defying me about this, she certainly wasn't going to be very mindful of language use either. I didn't tolerate her cursing at home, but I couldn't control her elsewhere. Sometimes you raise your children as right as you can, but the outside worlds seems to interfer with "parental rights" much to often.
  11. Welcome Brandon from one of the elders on Trap 17. Sounds like u r a gamer. I am a graphics designer. You mention that it is cold where you are, and where is that? I am in Michigan, USA. I got a D once in chemistry ugh. It is no fun when you get low grades like that. I wish you better luck and discipline in the future. You should apply yourself as much to schooling as you do to gaming?
  12. Very clean and nice layout. I like Pink so you didn't have to warn me. I don't have any suggestions since you are at a more advanced level on htmling than I, but perhaps your text over the darker pink should be bold. It kind of blends into the background. Keep up the good work. I give it and 8 out of 10.
  13. Well, welcome aboard antwill, from on of the elder members here at Trap 17. I have only been here since January and am really impressed as well. There are a lot of friendly people here to help you out with any problem you might run into. Or just chat and exchange ideas. Hope you get hosted soon. Keep posting to earn points so you can get your site up real quick.
  14. Well, I am only using 67MB of the 150MB I have alloted to me and that includes my on site backup. My whole site is almost up at this point, so I doubt I would use up more than I am alloted. I doubt it is necessary to contact admin if it is indeed an error.

    Hello ! Intro

    Public Diary is an oxymoron isn't it? I thought diaries were private. I certainly wouldn't want to air my daily events on line. So it's kind of like having your own Guest Book only you make the entries yourself?

    Hello ! Intro

    Well, hello Lihi! Welcome to Trap 17 from one of the elders of the forum. I am in Michigan, USA. There are a lot of nice helpful people here that you will come to know. I have only been here since January and have learned soooo much. I was hosted at another site until last December when they went down without any warning. Trap 17 came to my rescue and I am still rebuilding my .com. With all the advice I have gotten here, I redid a lot of my graphics, which has taken additional time. I clicked on your link and got there just fine. Pretty in Pink, huh? My site isn't as modern as yours and I have had some complaints about the colors, but I love purple and green, so what the heck. Maybe some day somebody will tell me just what BLOG means. Too many words are being added to the dictionary for internet use too quickly for me to keep up with them all.
  17. Mine has said that for several days now. It would be nice if it is true. I don't use all the add ons nor mail, since I wouldn't know how if I tried. Just upload graphics files to my public_html folder for my site. All the other stuff is way beyond me. Maybe if I cross my fingers and wish, it will stay that way, unlimited space wow.
  18. I was over on Xisto forums and jlhaslip invited me over to the Trap 17 forum. He thought since my site is a graphics theme that this forum would fit better. He was right. Xisto is nice, but too technical for my taste. I have met a lot of new, and very helpful people over here. This forum suits me fine.
  19. I don't think so CinnamorollTK. If it was ball lightening and it came toward somebody, it would have hit them. Lightening seeks ground and will go through anything to get there. I was more than likely an optical event of some kind. Eyes can do funny things. Sparkles, bursts and etc. can occur in ones vision. As for the heart beat skipping, I agree it was probably just a fear reaction to the preceived happening.
  20. Very nice and clean. Effective use of increments. I only see on obvious thing. Your "Welcome to the Bus Stop" title line that is a link at the center top bar needs to be color other than grey. When you hover, it turns blue and that is nice, but you can't see it unless you hover. I would guess your style sheet has a directive to make all links grey, but it doesn't work for this particular link. See what you can do about it.
  21. OK, so define "Parse". What is considered the "document root"? My public_html folder? Or the one up from there that appears in my ftp window when I connect to upload? So if I put this in my robots.txt User-agent: Mediapartners-Google*Disallow: /cgi-bin/Disallow: /_*/User-agent: *Disallow: / Google cannot get into my cgi-bin or any folder that starts with an underline and any other robot cannot get in any folder or file?
  22. I ran a search about this file and found a link that took me to a site to generate a robots.txt file. It also told me where to place it in my file manager. However, I just don't understand exactly what this file does. I do get that it prevents some search engines from poking around in all my files. Is this all it does? What are the consequences of not preventing this from happening? My folders are most all graphic sets that I offer for free viewing. I do not use my cgi-bin nor my mail. I am only using my public_html folder. I do see in my errors log that someone or something has been looking for a robots.txt file.

    Bonjour

    Well, hello Mortanis! Welcome to Trap 17 from one of the elders of the forum. I am in Michigan, USA. There are a lot of nice helpful people here that you will come to know. I have only been here since January and have learned soooo much. I was hosted at another site until last December when they went down without any warning. Trap 17 came to my rescue and approved me for hosting. Hope you become a very active forum poster. If you get hosted, let us know your url.
  24. Just to let you know, a postage paid label arrived in my mail today. Thats 1 for Mich Hurray!. Now all I have to do is return the CD for another one I really want. PS. I love your sig, it is adorable.
  25. Yeh Irfanview. I really love the thumbnail option so you can cruise through all your graphics with great ease. Also the batch conversion option for converting, optimizing, resizing, reducing dpi and renaming many files at once. I use this program all the time and find it the handiest ever.
