It's windows. You either click 'Yes' or 'No'. However, you have to read the dialogue to know what you are saying 'yes' or 'no' to.
So, in this case, it should have been 'Click yes if you want to not continue on, losing all fireworks settings, or no if you want to continue on without any issues.'
I hate those!
BTW, The Mac style guidelines (IIRC) say that clickable options on any dialogue have action associated to them. So, in Windows, it asks "By removing this file, other software might stop working. Remove anyway? Yes / No" But, on a Mac, it offers the options keep/remove. It's a subtle difference, but it's so much easier to work with.
You know, speaking as an American here, it's only the big TV news channels and the big newspapers which are agonizing over the "election" already. Unless I hear about a debate and want to watch it, or see a headline on Drudge, I don't see much of it.
It's just the press feeding the press at this point. We (the average people) know this. It's just people outside the US might have a harder time filtering it out.

Try the QNAP TS-209 Pro. It has Itunes and DLNA, but only supports 2 drives for Raid 0+1+JBOD. It uses EXT2.
I've been looking into this for a while too...

QNAP's TS-209 Pro (The Pro adds NFS support!) is the funnest piece of hardware I've seen. RAID support with hot-swappable, automatic array rebuilding, plus all the server stuff:
File Server:
Backup Server:
3rd party backup software support: Arconics True Image, CA BrightStor ARCserver Backup, EMC Retrospect, Symantec Backup Exec
Mirror Station:
Printer Server:
Disaster Recovery:
Web Server:
MySQL Server:
UPnP Media Server:
Support UPnP/ DLNA multimedia technology
iTunes Server:
File System:
EXT3 (Internal/ external HDD)
FAT (External HDD)
NTFS (External HDD, ready only)
It goes for about $400. It only draws 8watts when idle (and the drives are asleep).
I plan on getting 3 500GB hard drives for it, and use the auto-rebuild of the arrays to do backups. Just yank a drive out for offline storage, and plug in the 3rd drive and let it rebuild the array on the fly. 2 weeks later, rinse and repeat. Data is available during rebuilds too.;)
Did I mention it runs linux, and you can get ipkg on it, so you can load almost any linux apps on it, like svn, etc?
I don't want an old computer pulling 100watts from the wall with freenas. This fits the bill!
Similarly, when copyright expires a work falls into the public domain, DRM prevents that. There needs to be a facility in place to ensure that work will be available freely once it's copyright has expired. Software for which it's copyright expires should be required to be released with source code too.
Here is my idea for software and copyrights: If you want a copyright, then you must provide a disk to the Copyright Office of the source code and all software needed to make the program. Then, when the term expires, they can make copies of that disk available on demand for the cost of duplication. Since any software on the disk would similarly be out of copyright by that time (has to be older to use it to make the new software), all software on the disk would be in the public domain before the application in question.
Now, if a person/company didn't want to do this, then they could forfeit their copyright claims, and they would have to rely on licensing to do what they wanted.
I think EULAs are illegal because they are relying on copyright on the one hand, but add extra restrictions on the other. You should only get one or the other. Not both.
The situation of Irish tenant-farmers explains how the failure of a single crop could devastate an entire country. Since most of the farmland in Ireland belonged to a few wealthy English and Irish landowners, the majority of the Irish agricultural population did not own land and had to trade their labor for the use of a dwelling and a garden plot. Although some of these tenant-farmers paid rent by raising and selling a pig, many worked in their landlords' fields of oats, rye, or other grains. For their own families they planted only potatoes, which cost little and yielded more food per acre than most other crops (Woodham-Smith, p. 35). Also, potatoes thrived on this rented land: ground unfit for the landowners' grain or animals (Green, p. 103).
For most rural laborers, then, their potato crop was the only source of food. Tenant-farmers lived in constant danger of famine, not only because they depended upon a single article of food, but also because the potato "in its very nature [is] peculiarly liable to fail in certain seasons" (O'Brien, p. 223). The crisis that began in 1845 was not Ireland's first potato famine. An 1851 census reported that the potato crop had failed in some degree at least 24 times since 1739 (Woodham-Smith, p. 38). Every summer more than two million people went hungry until the new crop came in (Woodham-Smith, p. 165). So the failure of the potato crop yearly from 1845 to 1851 greatly increased the misery of a country already burdened by extreme poverty.
Although historians emphasize Parliament's free market stance, the best way to describe the British economy of 1845 is that it was a fusion of free market principles and certain govern mental interventionist measures. Parliament's critics assert that free market policies increased the ill effects of the famine. Yet evidence shows that government intervention in the form of the corn laws, the navigation laws, and the poor laws intensified Ireland's difficulties.
When the potato crop failed, Parliament adhered to free market principles by refusing to close Ireland's ports. Critics insist that Parliament should have prevented the export of other crops, arguing that the Irish people should have benefited from Irish produce. However, not only did those crops rightfully belong to the landowners, they were also needed to feed English laborers (O'Neill, p. 257). If Parliament had closed Irish ports, famine, rather than being prevented, would have been transferred from Ireland to England. The suggestion that the government buy Ireland's produce and distribute it among the Irish would have solved the problem of paying the landlords (Woodham-Smith, p. 75), but not the problem of feeding the English laborers.
Yet the corn laws and the navigation laws show that Parliament was less dedicated to the free market than many historians would indicate (O'Brien, pp. 265-6). The corn laws, passed to protect British agriculture, kept the price of grain artificially high by imposing tariffs on imported grain. The navigation laws protected the British shipping industry. Under these laws, only British ships could carry goods into British ports.
Such protectionist measures worked against both the English laborer and the Irish tenant- farmer. The corn laws increased the price that the English laborers paid for food. And while thousands of Irishmen were dying of starvation, food that private societies in the United States had sent to distribute to the Irish could not go directly to Ireland. It first had to be transferred to a British ship, increasing the cost of aiding the needy and lengthening the time that starving people had to do without food (O'Brien, p. 266). The combination of the corn laws and the navigation laws made it unprofitable for foreign markets t
I would propose one more thing. A fixed date (at the latest) when the work's copyright expires, and it can enter the Public Domain. With the Disney's and Gershwin families doing their thing, the expiration date is now a moving target. When it's first published, it also gets a hard "maximum" expiration date. This would save a lot of hassle down the road.
This wouldn't preclude someone 10 years down the road giving up their copyright and voluntarily putting it in the Public Domain, but it would just show that no-matter-what, copyright expires on THIS date. This also should be honoured in any electronic player (whether mp3 or Sony Reader, etc) to remove any DRM on the file.

Simple answer:
Because of this rule, all of the REH works published prior to January 1, 1964 belonged at least initially to some publisher, as no rights were ever retained, as far as I have been able to ascertain, by either REH or any of his succeeding "heirs" to whom remaining stories were left. Starting in 1963, the Kuykendalls began keeping some of the copyrights in the works that had not been published up to that time, and to which they had original typescripts, because Glenn Lord by then had become their agent, and was attempting to take care of the technical requirements as he gained knowledge in the field. Further, Mr. Lord attempted to get assignments from a number of people and companies that owned the copyrights in the older stories which had not fallen into the PD, attempting to obtain those rights for the Kuykendalls as well.
Due to the rule on previously unpublished work, Glenn's efforts to retain copyrights, the results of the settlement between Glenn Lord and the Baums, and finally the sale of the REH rights to Paradox, Paradox now own a sizable percentage of the copyrights in the works of REH. These copyrights still account for over half of REH's output, almost all first published after 1964. Indeed, at the moment there are no works of REH published prior to 1963 that I can point to with absolute certainty as being owned by Paradox Entertainment, with the possible exception of the works that appeared in Argosy and the poems that first appears in Always Comes Evening, though with a good lawyer and some effort I think most of those titles can be held clean enough. A listing of some other owners, as best as can be discerned from Copyright Office records, is included below. There are almost certainly others to be found, and a thorough review of all works first published between 1963 and 1989 needs to be undertaken.
In the 'Search' dialogue, Folio Views had this since 1994/1995. If you typed in 'lov', it would then show a list of words in the document that started with 'lov', like 'love', 'loving', etc. The top-most from the list was also highlighted in your text entry box similar to how FireFox displays a matching URL, and then you hit 'enter' and it would skip the cursor past this word to 'accept' the predicted word, and then you could start typing your next word.

in college that gave very hard tests. Intel Assembly class. For a midterm, we had to decipher Object-Oriented Assembly, and decipher self-modifying code. After 3 weeks of introduction to Assembly.
I got an A, with an average of 58% in the class.
For the 2-hour final, he got up at the 1-hour point, and yelled: "The test is over. All pencils down." We just sat there dumbfounded for about 10 seconds, and then he said, "Just kidding. I always wanted to do that."

Responding to feedback from Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E1 users, Canon has expanded the functionality of the Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 to also support two-way communication via peer to peer (PTP) and HTTP protocols. Remote users can trigger the shutter button or download images from the camera via an internet browser window, dramatically reducing the time it takes from capture to publication. The Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 offers users a greater degree of security by allowing up to 4 types of WEP encryption as well as WPA2-PSK, which supports high security AES encryption.
USB host functionality means photographers can shoot directly to external storage media on longer shooting assignments. The unit also supports recording of GPS data - when connected to a portable GPS device, the location and time of capture is automatically added to each image as EXIF data.
Requiring no additional batteries, the Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E2 fits neatly onto the side of the EOS-1D Mark III and offers the same degree of weather resistance as the camera body.
A few years ago, there was a story posted about how a biologist had used some big cat hairs to base his research on. Turned out, that the hairs had come from a cat in a zoo.
In South-West Utah, whenever some road work was going to be done, they would find a dead tortoise on the road, and the environmentalists would cry foul. After they did an autopsy on one, they found frozen lettuce in its stomach. The environmentalists had caught them live, fed them for a while, then froze them until "needed".
Why? Extensions. I actually like Seamonkey better for tab options (Ex: Firefox doesn't honor the preference to open a new tab showing the home page.) and the overall integration (icons in the bottom left of the screen, ctrl-[123] to switch between browser/email, etc. Another one: One theme applies to the browser and email.
However, I run Firefox and Thunderbird now for the extensions.
But, I wish one theme could be used for both.
I wish it had all the options (or honored the about:config options that do work, somewhat).
If/when Seamonkey supports FireFox/Thunderbird extensions, will quickly go back to it.
Why can't there be a way to specify which of the 9 are listed???? Is that so hard?
