From Imagine Peace:
The World March for Peace and Nonviolence.
Prague – November 3, 2009.
Thousands of people have gathered in Prague’s Wenceslas Square to participate in the biggest event in the country organized as part of the World March for Peace and Nonviolence: Harlem Gospel & SuperStar singing Imagine. It was the last and the biggest event that concluded a three day stay of members of the World Marchs Base Team in the Czech Republic. More...

And if I was rash limpballs, I'll take some of this, and some of that, and whoa nelly, an extra helping here...
Diabolus est Deus Inversus
Found three viruses, including a TAI level 10 Trojan. Not bad for free software.
Spent much of the whole day doing disk defragmentation and running the virus scan, all while Orlando streets here were locked up tight.
Much faster; hopefully the non-responsive scripts are gone as well.
Thanks again!

I put in Ad Aware yesterday too. 26 minor viruses. My computer is faster now. Thanks miss_kitty.
Looks like I missed the peace rally by 1 day. I walked through Wenceslas Square all the time.

Good idea to do a disk cleanup as well:

how much space clean-up will free up. Then a check box will appear and allow you to select which file types you want to delete. As a minimum, select temp files, temp internet files, recycle bin. I checked everything; so far, I'm not missing anything pertinent.

CCleaner (Crap Cleaner) and SpybotS&D.
AdAware tends to find spyware cookies.
Firefox with the noscript addon will stop most of them dead. SpybotS&D inoculates and blacklists known (very) bad websites, or at least their drive by warez.

I use both Spybot and AdAware, although I use Spybot more often (daily) to clean any possible spyware. Both can and are used to prevent spyware from getting in, but they also can be used to clean any that may have gotten in. I don't think there is any conflict, but I'm no expert.

It wasn't NK.
The Treasury computers were wide open to the Chinese hackers.
Its turning into a hate muslims incident
"raises ethical questions" says some brass, but this also raises some other questions about what really happened:
not very far at all. the fist shooting were only five minutes away and the second was only a block or 2 away from where i live
its very quiet almost looks like a ghost town outside.i cant speak for al of us here but its quite nerve wrecking.
2 of the shooters have now been cought. phew. 0.0

the Beat Farmers, nothing makes me smile like, "California Kid."

My happiest day was when I found that I could buy Beat Farmers music on ITunes.
I actually got to meet Country Dick Montana once at the Coach House when he was performing with the Pleasure Barons. I miss his wonderful style and distinctive voice.

like my 1963 1/2 ford falcon sprint with a 340 hp 289 and a 4 spd , faster than a ( stock ) shelby gt 350 .
Or broad reaching in 40+ knots of wind in ten foot seas .
Or playing pinochle for days on end .
Or being a hippie in Berkeley in the 60's and 70's , now that was rough duty , a long blond haired good looking devil with a triumph 650 and a 25' sailboat .
Those were the days my friend ,
I thought they would never end .
oh and the 420 , and bumps , lsd , shrooms , nay never touched the stuff ( really trust me , Im running for dog catcher ) what ya think a hippie would lie to ya ! .
every time you throw a little mud , you lose a little ground .
in last night's Open Thread this afternoon about the Carrie Prejean tape...
Well, my maternal unit watches the TMZ program on FOX, so I had the misfortune of learning today that in the tape Carrie, let's just say, *isn't* doing anything that could lead to babies!
Bad little evangelical!
I've never seen change without a fire
Butt that same act that doesn't lead to babies could preserve her virginity.
female and evangelical, you get it drummed into your head that doing *that* is a terribly selfish act because it means you're not pleasing someone else! :P
And it doesn't lead to babies, so it's supposed to be out of the question.
So she's a major hypocrite.
I've never seen change without a fire
Oh, wouldn't that be sweet? I mean, I know the irony (and hypocrisy) would be lost on them, but wouldn't it just be the ultimate in right-wing flip flops?
For the evangelical nutcases to have to argue that oral sex does not count as "sexual relations"?! Why, I'll be we could push 'em right over the edge, and get them to say it depends on the meaning of "is"!!
I'd love to see the Daily Show bit on that!
Everyone is equally entitled to the pursuit of happiness. Wasn't that once self evident?
Bad, bad religious right wing hypocrite! Don't these religious kooks believe you will go to hell, or at least grow hair on your hands or go blind, if you do what Ms. Prejean was doing?
afternoon for a chuckle, and one man claimed his habit of that ended his marriage... At the very least, the evangelicals, Catholics, and Mormons all seem to believe that it ruins relationships. :|
I've never seen change without a fire
never seem to get caught in lesbian sex scandals. Only in hetero ones, or solo ones like Carrie.
Repug men on the other hand...
I've never seen change without a fire
Which hand?
Depends I guess! ;)

Please no Depends! Talk about a mood killer!

Ah, Prague. One of my favorite cities. It's a magical place.
I've been there many times when I worked in Europe. I always seemed very relaxed and at peace in Prague, especially sitting in the Stare Mesto, the old town square, having a coffee or a beer and just people watching and letting the day go by. The Christmas Market in Stare Mesto is one of my favorite things, especially if it is snowing.
Stupidhack gets his way on abortion restrictions in health care. Gay marriage opponents win the "somebody think of the children" argument, since there's no way kids can't find out about homosexuality outside of public school. Muslim-Americans are worried that loose cannon will hurt their image. I always knew Tarantino movies were Republican propaganda fodder, and now I have proof. Bobby Dingleberry raids an ACORN office. A Florida shooter was an ex-engineer employee forced to slum for Subway, because he couldn't even get his unemployment benefits. Kucinich finally gets an ex-Polish Revolutionary War supporter honorary citizenship. The LAPD finally finds time, in its efforts to racial-profile and arrest the poor, to make more rape kits available. Mont Blanc loses 18 inches of snow. Unemployment around the world. For some reason, when private organizations handle distribution of H1N1 vaccine, there's a shortage. (Unless you work on Wall Street...) The Senate Dems flip off the Repugs from blocking watered-down climate change reform. Schumer's upset about our green jobs going to China. He also didn't like NAFTA much, either. When the economy wins, workers lose.
Hey Dems-- wanna lose whatever credibility (and chances to hold onto midterm election seats) you have left? Go ahead and give the Chinese these contracts! Creating JOBS at home was PRECISELY what these stimulus dollars were supposed to do. FUCK YOU if this shit gets swept under the rug!
Props to Schumer. Let's see the rest of you rally behind him!

Not just abortion from what I heard, but birth control and other women's issues. Totally sucks!
When are they going to ban Viagra?
Total bullshit.
Here where I am, we say, 'NAFTA =SHAFTA' Besides benefitting the 1%ers, I doubt it has any 'value' at all! I will never forgive Clinton for it! Nor, Hillary. It was all for the WALLSTREETBANKSTERS, now they benefitted!!

And good riddance to Nancy Disgrace who's milked the hell out of this story for the last year.

I'm sure she'll find something else. Right now I think it's that serial killer in Ohio that was living with all the bodies of the women he's killed... :S
I've never seen change without a fire
Sleeping with and getting other women to come into the house with decomposing bodies? Hell, I can't get 'em to stay if there are socks on the floor...
And not sure Nancy will put much effort in the Cleveland case, as it appears likely that some of the victims weren't exactly blonde and white.

Went outside to see how extensive, and 7-11 next door is out too. No GD coffee!!! F'ing morons driving through four way intersection without working lights like it's a green light on the speedway.
I'd have figured Motel 6 and 7-11 in O'town would have generators; I know where I ain't going in a hurricane...

This isn't going to go over well.
I see this as an opportunity. If he wants to take this position, I say fine. It gives us an opportunity to say ok, fine. We're outta here. And as far as having to stay there to train people in the Afghan forces. I say bring them to the US. Train them there. Take 2000 at a time. Maybe more. Just use different military installations. Then get the allies to do the same . Then all of the allies can contribute the the weaponry to defend themselves.
Now, I know some people will not like this. I'd rather see a peace deal worked out. But at the very least, this can get us out of Afghanistan.
Same for Iraq. We have plenty of training facilities in the US.
Because this kinda stuff has to end.
Not to mention how the public feels.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
