You know you can try the "download this video" option (if you have Real Player) that will pop up if you mouse over a flash video. Then, you can convert it to any format you wish, also in Real (chances are it will download in a .flv format). More trouble than it may be worth, but if you truly want the video, it's the way to go.

I didn't think it was so critical that people be able to download this kind of stuff but I will for future content that I have permission to do so.

A magnitude-8 earthquake in Pacific could give way to a tsunami. On TWC, there was a bulletin for my area, but it doesn't seem like it is a major emergency. Here is a link to a Seattle Times article.

Bet thats something you dont see too often on your IS

2 years ago, we had an hour added extra to the school year, it makes each class 70 mins long, any more hours and ill be dead by the end of the day.

You wont like block scheduling. 90min classes. They suck

Doesn't surprise me. Obama and the lunatics he associates with are full of dumb ideas.

Thank god im not the only one who has felt that from the start.

"Jon and Kate Plus 8" is no more.  Starting the 1st or the 15th (I can't remember the exact date) of November, the show will now be renamed "Kate Plus 8", which will focus on a single mother raising 8 kids.  TLC also mentioned that they have plans for Kate in 2010.  Wonderful.

Good. It was a stupid show imo. Dont see why people liked it so much. I dont think its a good environment for those kids to be in.

I have been trying it out for sometime now. Its an improvement over 2007 but more touchups and tweaks rather than the huge UI changes between 03->07

Where did you get it, if you don't mind me asking? 

This should answer your question

Terrible job indeed, maybe if they paid more attention then they would of did a better job.

all that time for an SD mirror image? TWC what were you thinking?

You all do remember this is running on a  satellite box right? I imagine just doing this is about maxing out the box as it is. Better than nothing I would say. Perhaps if the companies who make these boxes finally upgrade the specs you can get something better in the future.

1. They may of been waiting for the weather star HD to be at there headend.

2. This a just a test and they just reused the old one with a new HD coming soon.

3. A full HD one will come with the HD gui and or the NEW direct tv tivo HD.

You cant use a STAR for satellite customers

The emulator does not restart your computer. Are you sure your computer is not installing updates or something? Its possible it crashes but thats the only thing I can come up with.

Here's where the playlist will be posted and anything dealing with the new playlist will take place, lets hope it plays tomorrow!

IMO, it's not necessary to create a topic like this. Just make a playlist topic when the new music rolls out

I agree. This topic was unnecessary

Introducing...Microsoft Office 2010! Don't know when it's going to come out but it looks a bit similar to Office 2007.

Yet, I am barely using Office 2007 for my Intro to Info Systems class... 

I have been trying it out for sometime now. Its an improvement over 2007 but more touchups and tweaks rather than the huge UI changes between 03->07

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't been active lately. Just swamped with work. Friday- Sunday I was sick. For the past two days I have been just non stop working. Only had about 2hrs of sleep each night since Sunday. Im really run down at the moment. Hope to recover a bit this afternoon. As always if you have anything urgent, you can always email me, contact me on twitter or send me a PM.

Why does the education here keep being compared to the education in an Asian country? I find that very annoying. 

Because Americans want to think they are the best in the world. Obviously we should be the smartest

Perhaps schools need to teach students instead of teaching the test. Good luck Obama with this
