My friend is over here, and he’s the one that wanted me to watch lost, and so we’ve spent the weekend catching me up on Lost because he raves about how good it is… that way when this season starts i can be caught up, and we can hang out and watch it… (people might think i’m gay, but when your not married and don’t have kids, you seriously value friendship and family over anything…)

Anyway… this friend is also way into world of warcraft, and he brought his headset with him (so he could use teamspeak) to go on some raid with this group he’s in on wow… (wow: means world of warcraft) that way he could still hangout while he plays the game…

NOTE: From what my friend was saying… raids take about an hour…Anyway… he just took a break, and said that someone in his group was in another raid, with another group… and in this other group there was a girl that was in the group…. this whole story pretty much revolves around this girl….

This girl was nine months pregnant, and while on the raid, she went into labor… I’m not sure about anyone else… I don’t know much about pregnancy… but out of common sense, I would think, just from watching movies and what not… there would be a water breaking here soon… or something along those lines?

Before going to the hospital, this girl finished playing her raid before going to the hospital… i just find it hilarious that this woman finished playing her game before going to the hospital… i don’t know if she had the baby, and if all went well, i sure hope it did, but i’m all for the fun video games, and i’m sure glad that a video game can bring so many MILLION (last i heard there were like 7 million people with accounts granted not all of them play at one given time) people together… but this game must be addicting… people i know talk about it all the time… how wow is taking over their lives and what not… i watch my room mate play it like 50 hours a week (he’s unemployed at the moment) I just figure he’s played the game for months… my other friend has played for way over a year… my nephew was addicted for over a year… my other friend is also addicted… and has been playing for like two years…

I have over 5 friends that have been taken in by this game… and by taken in, I mean, it has taken over their lives… some still can function (hold a job) while playing it… (by playing i mean not just one session…) others can not, my nephew kicked it, and when he talked about how he doesn’t play it anymore, he talks about it, like he kicked drugs or something… my other friend quit playing it because it interfered with college… (after letting it take his life over for over four months)

I just think this game is hilarious… but the woman in labor and having to finish the raid before going to the hospital by far tops it all off…

it’s fairly short and quite helpful to a novice.

Everything below is a direct copy and paste of the link above… but I don’t want to take the risk, should that link ever go down…

In Windows Explorer:

Right click on the folder and click Search..
Enter .svn as the filename to search for.
Click “More advanced options” and select:
- Search hidden files and folders
- Search subfolders
Press search button and delete the folders you find appropriate.

Oh, and this description is at least valid for windows xp pro.

The easiest way is by creating a .cmd script file at the root directory and execute it. Here is the code for cleanSVN.cmd :

for /f “tokens=* delims=” %%i in (’dir /s /b /a:d *svn’) do (
rd /s /q “%%i”
)

You could also just do a search in windows by pressing Ctrl + F, and then selecting find hidden files, and search “.svn” and then highlight all of them and press the delete key.

marker.getPoint().lat();

it’s very tricky because there isn’t a ton of documentation that show examples of this.

The application no longer will display the time on the page, it turned to the original request of a progress bar that shows a percentage….

There are some problems of the page not doing what they want it to, when going back through mp3’s… the problem has been identified in .mp3 files are being cached in IE 6.

I’m currently trying to find a fix for this… so far, i’ve tried preventing the page cache using

but no luck so far… when i go into IE, and change my settings to

Tools > Internet Options > (Temporary Internet Files) > Click on Settings > Change the value “Check for newer versions of stored pages” to “every visit to the page” and then i deleted my files, and refreshed the page, and it worked….

Still working on a permanent fix, but we’ve identified the problem. Used a tool called “Service Capture” to find out that it was IE 6 that was doing it… the problem doesnt seem to be happening in firefox, and that is one of the reasons I never saw it, because my base alpha testing was done in firefox….

FOUND THE FIX!

filename = “sometrack.mp3″
//the filename is going to be dynamic
filename = filename + “?r=” + Date();
sndAudio.loadSound(filename, true);

NOTE!!!!!!!!
=================
this wont work when you try to trace it, your going to get errors because it’s not going to run on a webserver… but when it runs on a webserver it works because the command flash sends understands the querystring…

WOOOOOOOOOT!

activsoftware.com

function getQueryVariable(variable) {
var query = window.location.search.substring(1);
var vars = query.split(“&”);
for (var i=0;i<vars.length;i++) {
var pair = vars[i].split(“=”);
if (pair[0] == variable) {
return pair[1];
}
}
alert(‘Query Variable ‘ + variable + ‘ not found’);
}

Call a page, page.html?x=test

alert( getQueryVariable(“x”) );

I tried installing it, and when i installed (IT WENT SUPER SMOOTH) one minor bump in the road though… I tried to import my IIS settings for log files… and it told me that My import didnt have any dad for the last 7 days or something like that… I was confused, and tried looking up how to either:

1. Remove a site, and run through the wizard again.

2. Re Import the log files found in IIS.

I looked online in the knowledgebase, but everytime i searched i found nothing. I think something is wrong with thier search… it doesnt work.

Turns out… i just logged out and logged back in and my logs showed up.

When i print a test page it just sits in the windows print spooler.

I stopped the Print spooler by going to the command prompt (Click Start > Run > type: “cmd” without the quotes) and typed “NET STOP SPOOLER”

Then go to C:\WINDOWS\System32\spool\PRINTERS and delete the files

then restart the print spooler by typing “NET START SPOOLER” at the command prompt

That didn’t work either…

So I got mad, and tried to just delete the printer, and windows gives me this message: “Printer cannot be removed. Either the printer name was typed incorrectly, or the specified printer has lost it’s connection to the server. For more information, Click Help.”

I clicked “OK” and i remembered i removed the port, because this printer was set to be on an LPT1 port, but it was USB… i’m now getting confused…

I went into the properties of the printer and tried to associate it with LPT1 again, but when I went back to the properties i got the same message.

I ran the “Add Printer” Wizard in Windows, and it found the hp officejet 5500 series printer…

I knew the printer had been working before so I didn’t think drivers would be an issue, but the fact the the old printer is still in there bothers me…

Now that the printer is added, I checked it’s properties and everything is fine… now testing the print test page.

IT WORKED!!!! fantastic!

I’m not going to worry about that printer in there, because it’s my dad’s pc and i’m not getting paid for this…

but otherwise i would think that printer in there might eventually cause issues.
