I've seen many data charts and reports of this and that regarding global warming. The rise in sea level, the melting otf the polar ice caps, and biomes moving from here to there. Who really cares? The planet will survive, even if the financial structure of the world is forced to reconstruct. One thing I do know, if this picture depicts global warming, turn up the heat baby!

I was born and raised mostly on Italian peasant food. One of my all time favorites is my grandmothers chicken cacciatore dinner. I know, itâ??s very simple, but mighty tasty; oh, itâ??s true!   The dinner itself takes about 45 minutes to an hour from start to eating time, and costs about $5-6 dollars to feed 4 persons.   The meal consists of a simple salad of fresh cucumber, onion, and tomatoes in an olive oil; a BIG load of Vienna bread, and of course, the cacciatore. Â&...

I personally use a webmail (gmail) that I can collect locally using Microsoft Outlook. I do this so I can use my email wherever I am in the world, where I have internet access. However, I personally like collecting and creating my email locally. Why? I have many more options. One of which I am quite fond of is video email. So, do you use webmail, collect your email with a client, or both. What webmails do you like best, and whats your favorite email?

Will Stardock Continue to Develop new features for ObjectDesktop under Windows XP? I have been using Stardocks ObjectDesktop (OD) components since about the year 2000. Then OD supported Windows 98 and Win2K. Now I have been using Windows XP for a few years now, and have become extremely familiar and satisfied with XP. It suits all my needs, and is well configured to my taste. I have beta-tested Vista for a few months as well, and while it’s a fine OS, and sports many new and cool f...

More than one person has coined me as a misogynist on various posts throughout the joeuser community. Ironically, all of these people are women. I am not certain whether or not these people are qualified to characterize me as such, but somehow they have gathered opinions from my various posts that often concern the relationships between men and women in society. While I can accept their opinions that I may act like a misogynist, I do hold resentment as being labeled as one by a layman. ...

Well, in 9 short hours I get the opportunity to play lawyer again. Honestly, I really appreciate some of the more informal courts we have in America because the protocol is not so rigid, and any layman such as myself gets the opportunity to represent ourselves. Later on this morning, I will make my appearance in front of the California Unemployment Appeals Board in the case of: Lou Ron vs New World Industrial Coatings In the past one and a half weeks or so I have studied the pe...

Because of stiff competition between the world’s largest processor manufactures and the number two AMD Microsystems, Intel has been forced to cut back by 10% of its workforce, or 10,500 employees, in order to save $3 billion/year by the year 2008. To help keep Intel’s edge up on AMD, they launched 5 quad-core processors early Tuesday morning. Four of these processors marketed under the Xenon 5300 series, and 1 special moment for gamers, the Core 2 Extreme line, with plans to pump out 3 mor...

No not really Flip 3D, but rather the product TopDesk developed by Otaku Software. It seems to me that Microsoft is so bent on enticing people into the next generation of Windows, Windows Vista, that they may have forgot all of us faithful Windows XP users. So much of the newer features and products, such as Flip 3D, are being packaged strictly for Vista but not Windows XP. This really bugs the crap out of me. I have been using Microsoft products on my desktop for over a decade, and ...
