So time does not really exist and it is just a concept? That is interesting. That is what some of the greatest zen masters, like Dogen Zenji, said. I think you have an interesting insight, but what makes you think or feel that way? I have this pervasive feeling that time exists, but at the same I am puzzled by its very existence. Just the fact that time exists is a little perplexing to me. I know some of you may think, this guy is really weird, but hey, that is what I think and I am willing to take the risk on Xisto because there are an unusual number of open minded people around here, and I cannot find people to talk about these things in my physical neighborhood.

Interesting. Are you using godaddy's Off-site DNS? I would like to give it a try. Is it free for domains registered with godaddy? For the add-on domain you need to work with the DNS zone for that domain, not the DNS zone for the main domain in your CPANEL. Each domain has a different DNS zone. Assuming you are working on the DNS zone for the add-on domain, point the records to the same IP as the main domain. The server will know how to respond. Again, if you post your records here, it will be much easier to help you. You can edit the IP if you are concerned with making it public (not sure why)

As I understand it a resume is more summarized and concise, generally one page long. Nowadays, however, the terms are used interchangeably. I think resume is a more common term in the USA than it is in the UK, but it means generally the same. Have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Résumé From this webpage:

Yes Here are the results from other services I have only found http://www.ip2location.com/ reporting location in India. There is another service that provides wrong information for almost every host or ip I enter: http://geobytes.com/iplocator/.

Hi delivi, I like your resume. I agree with other members that the design could be improved, but the first impression was pleasant. When I look at a resume I do not like it when the design is too elaborate, because that can be distracting. Your resume is clean and very readable. There are two things that I want to comment. These were my thoughts as I read your resume: 1. As I was reading your resume I thought..."no degree". Then at the end, I found Education B.E. - Computer Science and Engineering | 2002 - 2006 Sardar Raja College of Engineering (Affiliated to Anna University, Chennai) And I thought, Hah! Degree. Why is it down here at the bottom? weird. 2. I reached the end of the resume and thought, where is the experience? looked back up and saw the skills again. I thought delivi must have just graduated, thats why there is no experience section. Then the education MUST be at the very beginning, it is a golden rule. Then I noticed that you graduated in 2006. Strange. Graduated in 2006, we are in 2009. No experience section. Delivi has not had a job with a company. That is alright, but why not list some projects, whatever they are with the corresponding accomplishments. I would use this structure PERSONAL DETAILS OBJECTIVE EDUCATION (you are still a relatively recent graduate) EXPERIENCE/PROJECTS (it does not matter whether in a job or doing something just for fun, as long as you have done something interesting) SKILLS You can also include a summary of top skills near the top, but do not list everything there, only your top 5 skills. Finally, I would change the photo. You want to look a bit more relaxed. Maybe a bit of a smile, looking smart. In this photo, I have to say, you look somewhat tense and uncomfortable. People hire people, not skills. It is very important that your personal image transmits confidence and a relaxed attitude. __________________ UPDATE delivi Here is CV that I just saw, which does not follow the structure I propose, but does cover all the points that I commented (experience, projects, not just skills, and also the photo looks more relaxed and confident). Maybe you can use some of the ideas. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

OK, I will keep meditating. But if my head explodes it will be your fault. I will write a note that says "buherath told me to do it" and put it next to my zafu cushion when I meditate. They will know who to call Are we to consider these at the same time?1. Look at the stone age people 1. Look at the what we are now It is tough to think both at once. My head is about to explode and I have not even started meditating. Seriously now, I think stress actually shrinks the brain. It impairs learning and memory and other brain processes. Meditation does the opposite: It helps think better, remember better and feel better. I am not surprised that it makes the brain grow. Whether meditation will actually lead to bigger heads in future generations depends on two things: 1. Whether people meditate more or not. If they do not then meditation will have no effect on the size of the head. I do observe a growing tendency in people to meditate and engage in related practices. 2. Whether having a bigger head will provide a significant (early) survival advantage or helps procreate more. It is important that the survival advantage happens at an early stage in life, because if you just add 10 years to your life when you are 80, generally you do not have children between 80 and 90 and then your "bigger head" genes will not be transmitted more to more children than the "normal head" genes. It is possible in theory that having a bigger head provides an early survival advantage, but I cannot imagine how at this point. Besides survival rates in developed countries are already quite high. The second possibility is that it helps procreate more, for example correlating with a much increased sex drive, and a disregard for contraception. It would also make a big difference if the members of the opposite sex find a bigger head very attractive. I just do not see it. ---------------- Yes, our heads are bigger than those of home erectus, pitecantropus, etc, but that is because our bigger heads were critical for our survival. Our bigger heads contained brains with new areas of the brain, such as the prefrontal cortex, that allowed us to plan, handle tools more efficiently, cooperate better and many other things that saved many *person* sapiens at an early age from starvation and from the attacks of savage beasts. They also stayed healthier and stronger, and had more sex (I am guessing here ). Thus, their "bigger head" genes were able to spread more rapidly.

Hi frozen fish, I think I can help you, because I have been managing DNS for a while. Can you cut and paste your zone records here so that I can understand what you have done? Also please explain where (in which DNS records) and why you want an IP instead of nameservers.

I think the database that this company http://www.ip2location.com/ is using is incorrect.The servers are in LA, I believe, it is just that this company is giving the wrong information.

Folks I found this company that says they do Flash game development of the kind I need: Gateway TechnoLabs Pvt. Ltd Flash Game Development Company Overview http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ DISCLAIMER: I am in no way related to this company or interested in promoting it I am looking for companies or individuals that offer a similar service. I will try to find 4-6 to compare and choose the best option. Do you know the company above? (Gateway TechnoLabs Pvt. Ltd) Do you know any company that offers similar services? Can you do the same job? Come on people, there must be someone around here that knows something about this. This place is full of people interested in game development and gamers.

Hi freeflashclocks, I do not understand your comment. The physical location of the host is important. You could have the best hardware, in the best data center with the best connection to an internet backbone, but it the data center is in, let us say, Argentina, and your audience is located in India, for example, then your audience will experience slow and irregular access times to your website. That is because the number of hops is high and internet traffic becomes more relevant as physical distance grows. My intended audience is in Spain. If the servers are in India, this is not optimal. I may be OK, but certainly not the best solution. I think in that case I would have problems. The WHOIS search provides no information on geographical location of the server. Finally, my suggestion is not directed to Xisto as a complaint. I really think it is beneficial to their growth that the geographical location associated to GAMMA server's IP on http://www.ip2location.com/ is corrected. I have done quite a bit of testing and I do not believe the servers are in India (if they are, then the connection from India to Walnut, California, USA is very very good) Potential customers in the US and Europe may check the location with http://www.ip2location.com/ and disregard Xisto and Xisto - Web Hosting as a candidate supplier for their hosting needs. Keep in mind Xisto - Web Hosting is not only free hosting, they also have pay customers.

Hi, I was testing access times for gamma.xisto.com and useing traceroute, etc. I came across this IP to geolocation tool that is reporting GAMMA.xisto.com server (and several other xisto servers) to be located in India: http://www.ip2location.com/demo/208.87.243.146 I think this may be incorrect and misleading to people who want their websites to be hosted in the US. I think the server is located in the LA area in California (correct me if I am wrong). I am not sure what you need to do to update this information, but I suggest you try to have this updated.

I have done that myself. STEP 1. Install Joomla on the remote server As explained above, the name of the database may be different from the one in your local installation, but Joomla will work fine because you are installing it now with the correct database name, user and password on the remote server. It is better to install Joomla than to copy the files from your local installation because the Joomla installation will warn you if there is anything incorrect with the installation on that server and it will create a configuration.php file that is correct for that server. STEP 2. Install the template on the remote server I prefer to use the admin site to install the template rather than copying files via FTP. It is simpler and faster, and you also get a message if the template is not correctly installed for any reason. STEP 3. Copy the Database contents from local to remote EXPORT your local database to a .sql file using phpMyAdmin. IMPORT the .sql file to your remote database using phpMyAdmin. Let me know if you need help with any of the steps.

My business model requires outsourcing of some IT and design tasks. At this point I have identified the following skills as necessary:- CSS based website design- Joomla administration- PHP for tweaking/adding functionality to JoomlaI will post more as I identify them.Do you know where I could find people with these skills?Are you good at any of these?

Hello I need to find developers for online educational games. The type of games to be develop are similar to those at - http://www.sesamestreet.org/games - http://pbskids.org/games/ - http://www.nickjr.co.uk/games/ I believe most of these games are created with Flash. However, development in Flash is not a requirement. Do you know where to find good developers for these kinds of games? Can you develop online games like those above? Thanks!

Thank you frozen fish, I will need somebody who knows Joomla well. PHP is important too, as all Joomla extensions are based on PHP (and CSS), as is Joomla itself. By the way, I am interested in knowing why you are not a fan of Joomla. Is it just boring to you or do you think there is some problem with it?

Thanks for the advice rvalkass. I am sure that is the case. That is why I am asking for advice here. Independent reviews of the company are most important, but I am not sure of how to obtain those. I have checked your website. Impressive photoshop work!!! You live in the UK and you have to pay UK utility bills, like me , I suspect you will not be the cheapest one around...(correct me if I am wrong)

OK, kleong,Can you send me a PM with additional information on your work? Thanks!

I just came across this article that says that meditators grow bigger brains. I meditate and I am worried that my skull will explode. Ref: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/

I think God is everywhere and is everything. We are God. The plants are God. The rocks are God. Interstellar space is God. Time is God.God is the energy that constitutes the smallest particles and the energy that moves them and keeps them together making larger structures.And, above all, God is consciousness.We are conscious because we are God.You eye processes light. Your visual cortex processes visual information.Your pattern matching system identifies objects.But you are aware of the object and you are conscious because God is consciousness, and God is you.And God is also that nagging mosquito.

I understand it now! Thanks This is great.

Hi, I have seen topics on Xisto about Paypal and Google checkout. Surely you know that many people still use other payment systems. In fact I purchase a lot online and I never use paypal and google checkout to pay. We need to understand the other options out there to receive payments for our products and services. QUESTION 1. Apart from Paypal and Google Checkout (already discussed elsewhere in these forums), what other solutions do we have to get paid? QUESTION 2. I want to offer my customers the possibility of paying me directly with their credit card? What steps do I need to follow to set a system up that will allow me to do it?

Hi I know from the forums that many of you are interested in online marketing. I also know from the forums that many of you take a scientific approach to problems and questions. This topic is addressed to those who are interested in online marketing and like take a scientific approach to problem solving. I believe much can be gained by setting up all marketing efforts in a way that helps us gain insights quickly about what is working and what isn't. What is the basic principle? - Create several versions of the marketing effort - Launch them - Measure the results of each version. - Choose the best one, refine and repeat. QUESTIONS TO GET STARTED - Have you ever done marketing experiments of this kind? - If so, how did it go? - If not, would you be interested in learning?
