I picked up some of the GIPF (http://www.gipf.com/) series of games about a year ago from a local game store.
They are 1 on 1 games, but carry serious strategy with them. The rules are simple enough that my 5 year old can play Zertz, but at the same time, the game play rises to the level of the players.
For my kids, I use a whitelist only system. If you aint on the list, you aint gettin through.
While I despise whitelist only systems in the business world, in this specific situation, it is the only way to ensure that only people the kids know, can email them.
We dont drop non whitelisted mail. It sits in a file for a while, and we go through it periodically if someone says "hey, I sent you mail" and they were not whitelisted.
I use my Chevy truck to ford rivers and small streams all the time. I've also been known to dodge small animals in the streets, while driving my chevy truck, to avoid ramming them.
They didnt do it because of their love for the Americans. They did it out of their hatred of the British.
You will find the French in the background of many American conflicts, manipulating the cards to the french advantage.
French and Indian War, Revolutionary War, War of 1812, War between the States, (what were the two when we sent our farm boys to save their asses?), WW I, WW II, they were in Vietnam before the US came in. (we just got stuck with the bill). In recent history, we find them playing games in Iraq... And in current history, they are still playing games in Africa.
But, back to the subject at hand. Do they dare snub the WTO free trade initiatives over a video game company?
Before rambling on about a product you tried a year ago and claiming it to be feces, you MIGHT want to try it again.
The snapstream folks have done a fairly good job reducing the interface overhead, cleaning up the recordings.
I haven't missed a show recorded by snapstream in about 6 months. And that happened because I was gone all summer, the wireless connection to the PVR system died.
The system recorded nearly 300gb of tv, sports, and movies while I was gone. I could download the files as MPEGS (massive) or convert them to divx and pull them to the local system I was on.
The ability to setup recordings from the road puts it ahead of "any application that came with a tuner card" as a previous poster stated.
Snapstream runs like crap on low end systems. Sure, Sure, you tested it on a high end box, we all believe you, really we do. *sarcasm*
Now, as for "linux needs drm", PLEASE... NO ONE needs DRM. We are having it shoved down our throats.
I've really enjoyed OneNote. The drag and drop of weblinks, images, text from IE into the tabbed/paged organizational layout is very nice. Unlike most other MS apps, its fast, not bloated, and has yet to crash on me.
To get back on topic, I use Outlook 2003. The only way to get rid of it here, is a simple Exchange server replacement.
Email, Contacts, Shared Calendars. For us its that simple.
Yeah...Tenet....CLINTON appointee... Because he was in charge of the CIA...a position that should not be changed lightly....he was allowed to stay on during the Bush administration....
No the difference is in regards to personal privacy. These are two publicly traded companies. They are before the court. There is no constitutionally supported element of privacy.
However, if it were two private citizens, or citizen and company, or citizen and the law, then constitutionally protected privacy exists.
Yeah, gave them viewers on Echostar as well. I emailed Charlie Ergen back when G4 started dropping programs I watched regularly. (TSS, CFH, silicone spin, ect).
Just told him that as a consumer, I'd be interested in giving up G4 for something of value.
One of the biggest reasons I went with Sat instead of cable years ago was for TechTV.
My 9364U supplies were not made by "Delta" (so not in the recall batch). That doesnt mean they don't get hot as hell. Nor does it mean that I enjoy Dell blowing me off when I tell them you can burn your hands on them.
I'm a registered Beyond TV user. The next version of Beyond TV seems to be leaning to the "pay per streamed client" model. So before you buy, check it out.
All in all, its been a decent application. Check the forums if you decide to consider it, and definately download the trial version.
Get new cell provider, get new handheld device? You make a very good point. Do one thing well.
I'v carried my little palm for almost 3 years now. Switched cell providers in between that time. Glad I didnt have to get a new palm device because I moved carriers.

I got a burr up my rear when my company changed hands. I'm an arogant bit of a programmer, and thus left my well paying job.
Now I'm regretting it, and want this forum to bless my rather hasty and immature decision to leave my employee.
Well, I'm not really regretting it, but Mom says it was a fool thing to do, and I'll have to move out of the basement if I dont find work soon.
Thank you.
If its anything like Craig's listings for NYC:
No children allowed.
Price does not include oxygen, heat, A/C, garbage fees, doorman fees, parking fees.
There is a sale at Old Navy?
O M G!!!!
Like, you biotch, for not telling me....!
Started using Zoneminder just a week or so ago.
Took a while to setup, but once it was finished, I had 4 netcams monitoring the property.
Capable or interfacing with an x10 system as well.

Martha, I've been bitten by a snake!
Hang on Frank, let me get my barcode reader out..
*eh* *eh*
Dang it, frank, hold its head still. Can't get a read.
*bleep* *bleep*
There we go.
Good news Frank, its only a black mamba
Martha, how is that "good"? I thought they were deadly.
Frank, the life insurance is all paid up!
Hrm,
The one sitting on my desk is nearly 2 years old.
It only misfeeds when the humidity is extremely high.
Cant say it has been a problem.
Except, that I can create a webpage with the media player embedded in it. An IE user visits, downloads the media automagically and is infected.
You may not have "intended" to infringe on CMAIAA's work, but I forced you to, or rather the browser did.
No No, Americans are Dicks.
And most of ya'll know the rest...

You work for Microsoft, don't you?
Your "Security through obscurity" gave it all away.

Actually, I have TRIED to remove the Politics section from the home page. BOTH of them. Doesn't work.

Call Jesse Jackson!
The RIAA is after poor black americans!
As an American, I plead...PLEASE NOT NBC!!!!
I cant find any information quickly on that lousy nbcolympics.com they setup.
Then throw in the Katie chatter in the morning, the anti-everyone chatter during the events...
I watched an entire soccer match the other day with the sound off. I want announcers...not bloody commentators.
