Louisiana�s biggest corporate players, many with long agendas before the state government, are restricted in making campaign contributions to Gov. Bobby Jindal. But they can give whatever they like to the foundation set up by his wife months after he took office.
AT&T, which needed Mr. Jindal, a Republican, to sign off on legislation allowing the company to sell cable television services without having to negotiate with individual parishes, has pledged at least $250,000 to the Supriya Jindal Foundation for Louisiana�s Children.
...
Alon USA, an Israeli oil company that has pledged $250,000 to the Jindal Foundation, last year sought permit changes that would allow it to discharge more pollutants at its Krotz Springs refinery. In state environmental officials also eased requirements for the company to check for spills of oil, ammonia or other contaminants in waterways to twice a month, instead of twice a week, records show

This is kind of gross. You don't want to criticize these corporate donations to charity, but it's a big game of misdirection as their charitable donations wind up being an actively manipulative red herring, drawing positive attention while at once gaming the system for corporate economic gain. Twisted. Where does the individual lie here? Fishing at the banks of the polluted waterway while the politician and the corporate chiefs enjoy a lovely charity fundraiser gala.

Hey guys,
I sold my refurb 24" ACD on ebay and it was working perfectly. I packed it up and shipped it out.
A week later the guy that bought it said that the fan was not working and there is a red vertical line down the right side of the monitor. I filed a claim with UPS but they denied the claim, because, it seems to me they just dont pay claims and insurance is worthless. (They said it could not be proved the damage happened in transit, which I understand but WHY OFFER INSURANCE!!!!!)
Anyhow, I have an appointment with a "genius" tomorrow and was curious if anyone experienced this and what I should be expecting.
PS. The buyer of the ACD claimed he had another ACD and this is how he knew the fan was not running.
Thanks

I called the AT&T store in the Galleria Mall, Middletown, NY and the recording confirmed an 8am opening, this Friday, July 11th.
As AT&T service is sketchy in this area, I'm hoping the line will be short waiting to get the new 3G.
Any one else planning getting on-line early in Middletown?

There's a new GPU update for the 2011 MBP, get that... then, run updates again, there's an EFI update. Hopefully that makes the difference.
If not, try using only the original RAM. Try that.
If not, HDD?
Then, if none of that works and you don't get help here, post on Apple Forums.
Then, call Apple....

if you have craigslist in your city, you can find these for 200 easily.
Brand new and not a scam? I doubt that... They retail for $300!

I think the color choice is good. Have not decided if it is too busy. Possible movignthe count to a seperate column?
I think I fixed it. Let me know
This works now
By default it's by most recent, but you can change it by clicking on the Sort By thing at the top of the list.
if you choose by artist, it will sort by artist, then album then song. Also, I just added Album to the listings.
My bad. missed that :D
Thanks

Hey guys,
Do you have any suggestions for some decent/fun split-screen multiplayers for PS3? I have all of the Call of Duty's, but I'm looking for some other games to try with my friends.

I like the idea of a Magic Trackpad shipping with every Mac. He didn't mention that new MacBooks will be announced, so thin that they disappear when viewed edge-on.

For your text ( #membershipcontent ), remove the "position: relative" and/or "left: 285px"
Think of relative positioning as a "nudge" -- the browser does most of the rendering and then moves any elements relatively positioned by the number of pixels you tell it. In your case, 285px on the left which bumps it to the right.

I hate, I mean HATE these phillips #00 and #000 screws. When I swapped the ram on my late 2008 alum macbook I stripped one of the screws (using the correct phillips #00 or #000, I forget which) getting them out. I had to go to the apple store where they were able to get the stripped screw out. They also had to order replacements (that they graciously gave and mailed me for free despite being out of warranty). When I was setting the last screw, when I had maybe one turn left, it stripped again, but the access door closed thankfully.
Fast forward a year later - now - and I am again having the same problem getting the screw out that holds the hard drive in. I am swapping my 250gb for a 500gb WD Black. My question is not so much how to get the stripped screw out - I have already made a genius appointment - but how in the HECK do you get these things out before they strip? What am I doing wrong? I consider myself pretty handy but the 00 and 000 just seem to be hard as can be to get out.
I tend to prefer craftsman tools, though the screw driver I am using is the "Husky" brand which I got from lowes or home depot. Could it be the quality of the tool? Though the driver head is not deforming, the screw is. What gives!!

Thanks for replying. I think you understand what i'm trying to do, except that i'm adding the subview in code rather than the IB.
if I add the button to the main (parent) view then it will be hidden behind the added view, surely?
Also the button is just an example. The real UIView has an indeterminate amount of controls added at runtime. I'm basically mimicking a menu system of a medical monitor.

The screen is only 1024x768 so you won't be watching 1080p. I don't know if it even has the horsepower to play 1080p even if you hook up the HDMI adapter for full resolution.
You will have to convert the mkv file anyways. Too bad VNC was pulled. I have it on my iPhone and was wanting to DL for my iPad but wasn't available node more :(

How much is the drive your looking at and do you have software like Toast for the burner? Also do you have a FW cable?
The drive is cheap, $60 CAD for the Pioneer 110D 16x DVD-R drive, and enclosures are around $40-50. The Lacie drive on the other hand is $140 CAD and only 8x.
Thinking about getting a simple firewire case with an oxford 911 chipset and putting the Pioneer 110D in there... any thoughts or people with a similar setup?
