  1. If you enjoy Eagles When Hell Freezes Over album, I think you might enjoy Crowded House?s song titled, Better Be Home Soon. I have always enjoyed nice guitar oriented songs. Although this has a little flare of Country but I find during the interlude, the key change of C major to F major to be quite exuberant. So without a further due, I introduce Crowded House, Better Be Home Soon.
  2. They were drawn to be cute so that it can be used for sick fantasy. The similar topic which discussed similar topic is now closed. We have minors here in this forum and the subject is inappropriate for them.This topic should be closed.
  3. Oh! Why didn't you say so... https://www.luminate.com/contact This is Yahoo! online email submit section. Although it requires for you to remember your Yahoo! ID, I hope this helps you. Cheers.
  4. It probably wasn't the best idea to post your personal information, such as, login and password. Although it may not be correct but sill... Give that a try. Since your domain is tied to your Yahoo! mail box may be they can do something about it. They are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Cheers.
  5. 1) To be able to share files You initially need to set up a network group name that is congruent with each other. To change the name of your computer and domain to join right click on My Computer >> Computer Name >> Change >> select Member of Workgroup and make up something that is unique. Repeat the same step for the other computer. Computer description can be anything (this identifies which computer you are accessing) but your Workgroup must be the same. And that goes for any computer that wants to be included in your sharing as well. Then, select a folder or a directory to be shared right click and select Sharing and Security >> Sharing >> Network sharing and security >> share this folder on the network If you don?t see shared folder/directory right away give it a moment or two. This will show up in My Network Places. If you cannot see it at all, retrace your steps and restart to see if that alleviates the situation. 2) To use a printer within the network Keep in mind that you will be setting one computer as a dedicated printer spooler. If you want to have your printer available without the dependent of another computer, you must use a print server. Otherwise a computer that has the printer attached must be on in order to print. Print server can be attached directly to a router and printers are attached to the print server. So choose which computer will have the dedicate printer installed hardwire. Then do the following. From your remote computer (the computer does not have the printer attached to) install a new printer as Printer and Faxes >> Add a printer >> A network printer, or a printer attached to another computer >> insert your printer disc when required Regarding USB flash drive The wireless router setting will ask you to have USB flash drive. This is so that an encryption key can be installed without a user writing down 10~20 characters of decryption code by hand. The encryption key code can manually be entered, but make sure you copy it exactly. You may choose not to install the encryption code if you are not transmitting sensitive information, i.e. credit card number, login and passwords that are not important, etc. And voila! You are all set. Good luck.
  6. Mr. Bush cannot run for re-election since he is at his second term as the president of the United States. A president cannot be in elected office for no more than two terms, must be a born citizen of the country, at least with an age of 35 or higher set by the Constitution of The United State. And I did vote for him on his last re-election. He may not be the best public speaker among the presidents in the past but, I wouldn?t let my country to be defended by a democrat who spoke against his country after the other war (very disappointing, Mr. Kerry). Hind sight is always 20/20. After the chaos and when the dust settles down, of course anyone can find mistakes during the crisis. You may argue that Mr. Bush has led the war in terror to benefit some kind of personal reasons. But when you look at what happened to New York City in 2001 (which my sister survived the aftermath), would you let someone break into your house but you would not call the police or do something about it? Would Mr. Al Gore have effectively captured Saddam? If Mr. Kerry was elected he would have ended this chaos and brought all those men and women back home. Then what? Have you seen a weed growing on the grass field? The only way to get rid of it permanently is to extract it from its root. Sometimes the U.S. president has to stand alone to do what?s right; not what?s most popular. Mr. Bush is probably most blamed for the rise of the oil price. But what people have to realize is that price rose simply the demand is higher now. It?s higher because countries like China and India are finally at the top level of world export stage that the factories are operating almost 24 hours a day. And those factories cannot run their machines without oil to start the engines.
  7. There must be a good reason why the site you want to visit is blocked. And the only way to bypass all firewall is knowing how to disable it. And only administrators should disable the firewall otherwise you are ?hacking? your school?s computer. Are you a h4ck3r? If it?s that important to you to access this site from your school, ask your school?s administrator to let you access that page. Otherwise you may be exploiting your school?s resources so wait until you get home and use your personal computer.
  8. HA HA! I wonder if wearing Nike or Adidas really makes you run faster and jump higher.Do you guys still use the acronym, "all day I dream about s**?" That was the going around sayings during my school years. It was also when the Beastie Boys was playing around the idea of this phrase in their song. Nike really didn't see the spot light until Michael Jordan became Nike's spokes person. Sure, Nike was well known even before that but the sale wasn't as high as Puma or Reebok. This may be a stereotypical statement but Nike has American pro-sports as their spokes person. Adidas has European pro-sports spokes person. And Reebok has gen-x hip-hop artist as their spokes person. I can't believe John Cena still wears the "pump" sneakers! That's sweet!
  9. Are there anyone participates in hunting either as a sport or as means to a meal? I have been invited many times to explore the nature by going buck hunting. Although I am strictly against hunting, I had to go to entertain one of my clients. I believe that we have graduated from hunting as means of necessity. The supermarket is my hunting ground and it has all the meat and other nourishments I need to survive this jungle called the modern city life.Besides for the sake of a dinner meat, I have seen two types of hunters: a hunter solely seeking the thrill of hunting an animal down to test the skill as a man and prove why we are on top of the food chain, or a hunter who is out there as a sport and to control overpopulation around the residential areas. What are your thoughts?
  10. We may feel that we have advanced, as human beings, as far as we can possibly go. And now that the bold frontier has been discovered, it?s time to set out sights into the new place?the space.Did you know that not so many decades ago (less than 22 years) that scientist discovered heavy water? We have the familiar water [H2O], hydrogen oxide, and there is heavy water [H2O2]. The discovery of heavy water was the next best thing since the splitting of an atom. You see, the oxygen molecule cannot have more than 2 bonds, hence H2O for those who understand chemistry, and this H2O2 is bonding with another oxygen molecule sharing instantaneously the bond of an extra electron. Heavy water mainly resides in miles and miles below the sea. And we just have discovered it. I say ?just? because if you look at the time line of human achievements, 22 years is very short time ago. May be this is the solution to the age old question of ?where are we going to get oxygen in space?? Now follow this logic if you will. When H2O2 becomes unstable (which in this case, it would only have to be in STP?standard temperature and pressure) the natural course of atoms dictates that it will form H2O and O-2. And if you have enough O-2 it will form O2 by combining oxygen molecule from leftover of H2O2 with another left over oxygen. So, with H2O2, it will form water and oxygen. Since H2O2 is abundant here on Earth and it can also be synthesized, making water and oxygen to breathe in space would be easier than once we thought.
  11. Unions that are working for private sectors or with a government contracts are the bad one, not all unions are evil as some newspapers portray them out to be. Unions were established during 18th and 19th century industrialization era to protect over worked and under paid people from further discriminating actions brought on by their employers. Unions strive for underdogs. Unions protect those who cannot protect themselves. But that few bad apples are spoiling the entire basket. Managers and leaders who make their living from union dues and obstinately decline to negotiate in order to deliberately prolong the strike to benefit them are the ones to be blamed. My sister belongs to New York City teacher?s union. If it wasn?t for her union she would have lost her job or, worked longer shifts with lesser pay.I am sorry to hear your friend cannot support his family due to union?s strict rules. Sometimes the rules that were set to protect a worker acts against that very worker. If you would indulge my mind, see if this advice would help your friend out. The state or county sanitation departments are great at hiring workers who are willing to work odd hours. They are unionized as well. But think of it this way, he will only work from 3am ~ 2pm (usually) and he can be home to meet his kids. The reason I bring this up is that I recently helped one person who was in a similar situation to obtain his job this way. Yes, the title ?garbage man? does not ring the bell. But the pay was better than his pervious middle management salary and he was going home in time to meet his kids, rather than sitting at his desk filing until 7pm. Good luck to your friend.
  12. It seems like some people cannot see the success of ebay as one of the business marvels. Looks like it is trying to be the next ebay like business. A dollar fee for swap is not bad. But all they are providing is a classified ad space and collect $1.00 from each swappers. Although this is very unique business model: Number 9 suggest that a monetary system should be replaced with good old fashioned bartering system. Hence, the "SwapThing." Wouldn't this be deconstruction of modern advancements? Paper bills were issued to not only purchase goods but, to gain wealth and security by collecting paper bills (money). Although this statement can be viewed as capitalism at its best, the whole reason you bust your hump to graduate and move to a higher education is so that you can have money to make your life easier. And not to bust your hump to trade your talent with the goods you need. Plus, the statement "the beauty is in the eye of beholder" comes to my mind. What if what you consider a precious item but someone comes along and decides that it's worth less than the dirt? How would it make you feel and when will that item be traded for something you want? There is a reason why we have paper bills to represent the value of goods today and let's not go back to the stone ages where three clam shells equals that day's meal.
  13. My sister had the similar issue with her WRG614. Is it possible that you are connecting through someone else?s router in your area?Turn your router off and restart your computer. After a full restart, check to see if you are receiving wireless signal indicated by your wireless card. If my assumption is correct, you were making connection not with your router, but with router that is far away and the phone signal is just enough to disrupt your connection. Believe it or not, that was the problem with my sister?s connection.How she solved the problem:She turned her SSID off with a router name that only she can remember. She set her channel setting to other than 6 (default). And she manually set her wireless card to only connect to her router. This is explained in the manual and on NetGear?s web site. If you are not doing a heavy downloading, change your frequency to a lower 1.1 to make the wireless wave signal longer. This will add greater distance than the higher frequency and much stronger connection strength.Let me know if this solves your problem. Perhaps my sister would have a better answer for you.
  14. I am fairly new to Xisto as well. But from what I?ve been communicated by moderators at this forum is that ?edit? button is disabled to: 1) have people consciously think about what they are posting 2) make every post count/worth (no spam) 3) have you think what you are going to say. If you must use ?edit? feature to edit your incorrect facts or merge your two posts, click on ?REPORT? button at the bottom of each post to notify a moderator what your intensions are. For example, if you want two posts to merge, tell it by saying, ?would you merge my two posts in this topic?? When you need to edit your facts, would you correct this ???..? to this way ???..?, etc.Hosting credit means how long you don?t have to post before your account is deactivated. There is a FAQ post regarding this topic but I forget where I saw it.When your hosting account has been frozen or deactivated due to post being deleted from this forum, you must bring it back to a positive number. I believe NilsC (moderator) will accept at least 4 to reactivate your hosting privileges. There isn?t, however, a set number as I gather since the purpose of this forum is to keep your hosting credit above zero. And when you make your post, it should be according to the forum rules and topic. By the way, this ?What Is??? is for a factual subjects. This forum section is to define a particular subject, technology, method, idea or discovery and have the facts to explain. For example, what is nanotechnology? Nanotechnology is? and you state your facts in your own words.Although my words may seem cold and harsh, please take it as a friendly advice. This forum is very supportive and everyone will help you along the way.Cheers.
  15. I agree. The simpler the web address, simpler to be remembered by all. Web address should go back to the basics; none of that http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. dan-network.com is short and straight to the point. dans-network.com is bit confusing. It is better to read, "dan dash network" than "dans dash network." Very good.
  16. If you are toying with an idea for catchy domain name that involves DAN as a prefix, would you consider the followings?http://www.danetwork.com/ this is the condensed version of �dan-network.� It sounds like �dan at work.� And your logo can have DAN in one color, let�s say, with a slight double vision of the letter N, followed by ETWORK. Therefore, making your logo to appear as DANNETWORK. Or, even do all caps of DAN and etwork (DANetwork) with N as your separator.http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ or http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ This is a combination of Dan�s blog and photos.Good luck.
  17. I have iPod's 20GB player. It really doesn't matter what MP3 player I get just as long as I can listen to my songs through long drives. I purchased iPod simply because it was $169.99 at my local retail store as an open box item (item that was returned by a customer with some parts missing).One design factor that Apple should address is the definite POWER OFF button. I know you can hold down the play/pause button for few seconds and it shuts itself off. However, when I make frequent trips and have to get in and out of the car it makes it difficult to remember to turn it off. A small 'off' button should be placed somewhere at the top, near the headphone jack.
  18. I am assuming this is an actual product. It's called "Cillit Bang", a cleaning product, one of those infomercials (information commercials) that you might see in the dead middle of the night. It is bit loud so be careful. It was remixed by JAKAZiD. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ It's in my head already. I hope I don't break out into singing this song at a funeral. LOL.
  19. HA HA HA . I did not mean to stick my head in where it did not belong. I suppose I should call my proctologist and get my head out of my buttocks. No need for one. After all, this is a forum. I especially enjoyed the colorful insults (although I cannot tell if in fact it was an insult since I am bit light on the lingo). Are you Coventry, CT or Coventry, UK? Judging by your phrases I am assuming that it's UK. No need to reply since it's your personal information. Cheers.
  20. This statement denotes that sometimes you find it in the least expected place. Although I have never thought that statement as your take. Very intersting. You gave me something to think about. These are examples of oxymoron where two ideas are contradicting one another. Few examples are:"that's a jumbo shrimp" "it was pretty ugly" "silent cry" "deafening silence" I wonder if that is what you heard. If you replace 'in' with 'with' it's correct. At least that is the way I've heard it.
  21. I think she?s talking about parking a domain. Please correct me if I am wrong, but you want another domain address to be hosted with your hosting space? And the reason you are requesting for DNS point is you want, let?s say your cousin?s domain is ?mycousin.dns?, your cousin?s address to appear on the browser?s address line?I believe you have to park your cousin?s domain to your cpanel. Once that happens a folder will be created with an appropriate name. Upload the content to that folder and treat it like your regular parent directory (/public_html). And one of three things should happen:1) Configure mycousin.dns to Xisto?s name server and everything will go smoothly2) In case that does not happen and your Xisto account still shows up in the address bar, use ?address cloaking? method on mycousin.dns control panel. Cloaking method will fool the address bar by displaying mycousin.dns at all times3) If all fails, design mycousin.dns index with frames (you know what I mean?). And each navigation link should be opened to target frame within that index. This method will cause mycousin.dns/index to appear at the address bar at all timesI may be misunderstanding ?park domain? method but this is very common with small business sites. Worse comes to worst, you can find Java coding to mask the address bar. Cheers.
  22. I know that you are new to this forum. I once received a warning. Please make sure to place proper quotes around.
  23. Try going to google and type define:hentai Hentai is basically a high sexually contented animation (or also known as manga). Manga is another word for cartoon. LOL, I don't know how old you are but don't get into it. It'll mess with your head (no pun intended).
  24. I lost two good laptops that way back in 1997 due to BIOS virus that was going around that year. And during my reading, I would have quickly replied with, ?yes, it?s your BIOS problem.? However, when you mentioned that you placed your original, thought to be faulty, CPU into your working computer and the same symptom exhibited, it got me wondering if a virus can exist within CPU?s cache?So, tracking from your steps you took, I believe there?s something wrong with your original CPU. And this CPU is probably causing some kind of short circuit that causes motherboard to ?fry.? My reasoning is that you changed out to a new motherboard but used your old CPU. And you used that same CPU on a working system as well. Ergo, both of your systems are inoperative. Further question I have for your is any sign(s) or error beep(s)? When you start your machine without at least having a CPU, RAM and video card you will hear error beeps in codes (this will also denote that a part is defective).Hopefully someone from this forum would see this thread and come up with a right answer.Cheers.
  25. My partner in crime, Mr. H., just had a baby. A healthy baby girl. Well, actually he did not have the baby?his wife did. But the baby has no name, yet. They are still in the mist of choosing a name to call this precious little thing. She is so fragile. I was very fortunate enough to be invited to see this little one. She pooped massive thingy while I was there, and Mr. H. didn?t even blink and changed the baby?s diaper. I mean he instinctively knew what to do. He seemed like he has been doing it for 10 years. Amazing. Amazing how a person can flip on a switch and know how to take care of one?s offspring. There must be a gene within each of us that is dormant until the day it needs to be recalled.So I thought I would call upon the help of my new found forum family. I would like to know your input on following names that they are thinking. Or, if you have a suggestion please feel free to drop in a reply. I will post back once the name is chosen. At a glance, Mr. H. looked worried. He later confided in me that he had uncontrollable thoughts about his ability to support, now, two other people. Can he really do a good job raising his little one? Would he be able to provide the kind of things that a child needs? Will his finance live up to the kind of life that a family man should provide? These were the very first troublesome questions he had during his first turn of breath, since the birth of his daughter. And that made me wonder. Will I be able to think that large once I am in the similar situation? Mr. H. never worried in his life (well, at least during the past 9 years that I have known him). And his career is unbelievably secured and solid. His works were praised by Microsoft and Sun Micro for his ability to secure a network. He has been invited to attend seminars and symposiums that only top level FBI security members would attend. And here he was, telling me that he was scared. Boy that hit me like a lightening. I am lucky if I can start the day around 12pm. I am so careless with my money, half of the time I have no idea where it went. I still live recklessly yearning for good old bachelor?s life. I pray to God that I get a nice kick in the buttocks to jump start my life. But in the end, I suppose I have to rely on good support from those who are around me and that ?instinctive gene? that I mentioned before to kick in.Thanks for taking the time to read.
