larryoncol:
am sure you guys wondering what office 2007 is like, for those of you who ain't seen it here, well thats gona be a thing of the past because you can download it from this link. and this is the blue edition

There's quite a big chance that you've never heard of this 'Blue Edition', because - as the NFO says - it is only available to equipment manufacturers and not to the general public. This is the copy from the original disk, which is (as said before) only accessible to technicians of Microsoft. This version of Microsoft Office 2007 will never appear for sale, since this is the only version where there is no need for a serial. This version also doesn't need an activation. The installer is very simple, undetailed and handy. The interface of application is completely changed, it is modernized and practically reminds in no way to the previous versions.In a few minutes the software will be installed on your computer, without any questions or other things that slow down the installation.

Office Enterprise 2007 is the most complete Microsoft toolset provided for people who must collaborate with others and work with information efficiently, regardless of location or network status. Office Enterprise 2007 builds on the strengths of Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007, adding Microsoft Office Groove 2007 and Microsoft Office OneNote 2007, enabling people to collaborate and create, manage, and use information more efficiently.





This collection includes:

* Access 2007
* Excel 2007
* Groove 2007
* InfoPath 2007
* OneNote 2007
* Outlook 2007
* PowerPoint 2007
* Publisher 2007
* Word 2007

All programs can be installed on Windows XP and Vista.

WebmastersRe: Riteweb Blog On Top 3 On Google. by Cactus(m): 11:58pm On Jun 25, 2007
Well the first thing people will advice you is to do SEO (search engine optimization). I am not an SEO expert But maybe someone else might be willing to help you on this. the keyword ENTERTAINMENT BLOG is stronger than RITEWEB and definitely more people will be searching for ENTERTAINMENT BLOG. look at your meta tags and make sure you choose proper descriptors or keywords.

Someone can do more explanation than I can regards SEO or SERPs

ProgrammingRe: What Kind Of DBA (Database Administrator) Are You? by Cactus(m): 7:43pm On Jun 23, 2007
this is all crap, a dba is a dba it just depends on the platform they work on, oracle, microsoft etc. all these crap about nuts and bolt etc its all big time BS.

As long as you get the task done. who cares how you achieve it. Well, in IT it is a common thing to give acronyms or different categories to things just to make it looks special or something crazy.

It doesnt matter, it is irrelevant. a true dba should also be able to navigate by writing codes or scripts in addition to using GUI tools

The truth is if all db systems only function using a command line interface, ah ah many people will be out of jobs. It just depends on personal preference as to how you want to go about doing things


It is so annoying just to see people trying to add efezi. No efezi can be added to a dba's job description.

A DBA IS A DBA ONLY PLATFORMS OF OPERATION DIFFER

You can as well try it using the Query browser which is the gui for mysql db or if u have phpmyadm setup up.

another option is to create a new user and granting full privilege just like the root access.
WebmastersRe: Mysql: Cannot Connect To Mysql, Access Denied For Root@localhost by Cactus(m): 3:23am On Jun 21, 2007
If it is not working and you intend on working on a windows platform i suggest you get WAMP @ http://www.wampserver.com/en/

that gives you a full package install of apache2.2, php5, mysql5 (i think) then you can then go into the httpd, php.ini to do your manual configuration as required.

smartsoft:
bros men, this Mysql is a pain in my ass. i enter mysql -u root -p and hit my enter button still gives me the same error

Access Denied for users root@localhost (using password : Yes )
your mistake: mysql -u root -p and hit my enter


you should write : mysql -u root -p typeinyourpasswordhere

and hit enter

you forgot to type in your password lol. gl

GamingRe: Xbox 360 Still Kicking Ps3's Arse Graphically! by Cactus(m): 11:25pm On Jun 19, 2007
Development/architecture from xbox to xbox360 still follow the same trend however from ps 2 - ps3, well u to pretty much re-engineer the architecture and development framework. Who cares if 360 is beating ps3 NOW. Think about the longterm xbox will still require one more version release to catch up with the technology of ps3 for now. by then the ps3 will have gone way ahead.

and now everyone is complaining that development for the ps3 is difficult well, guess what don't complain and embrace the new platform to fully utilize all its potential, graphics, system etc. it may take some time for the ps3's full potential to be realized. it is not just an overnight thing to happen. assuming Microsoft also changed its architecture dramatically, well xbox and ps3 will be in the same boat.

Also, in terms of pricing. well it is publicly known that sony is an expensive brand to buy duh. well sony in my opinion gives you good quality product that you can rely on. that is just from my own experience with sony products raining from laptops, pdas, cameras, and mp3 players including psp.

so just cut the fuss about sony's ps3 which ever you can buy or afford to play good luck to u. debating from now till tomorrow will not change anything the only thing that can be changed is the pricing which sony is apparently taking into consideration by december this year.

enjoy your consoles and stop bullying


xbox Live or Sony Place which is better

TV/MoviesSicko By Michael Moore by Cactus(op): 5:38pm On Jun 15, 2007
SiCKO by Michael Moore will be officially coming out on June 29 in theatres I believe. However, due to the pressure from US government investigating Michael Moore for going into Cuba which US bans, the movie has been leaked.

Regardless of where you are in the world, this is a must watch movie. When you see the movie then think why would anyone want to come to the US. Looking at all the great systems around the world that encourages personally development instead a corporate style slavery on middle-class and lower-class of people living in the US. Why wouldn't obesity be a problem in the US when governments of other countries have benefits for doctors to help their patient maintain the best health plan for their lives.

A single accident in the US can ruin your dreams and make your worst nightmares come true. I highly recommend all to watch this movie regardless if you are familiar with systems in other countries.

It is really sickening looking at how US works, and regarding themselves as the greatest country in the world it is shameful. Unnecessarily spending billions on fighting in Iraq, building weapons defense systems, and cannot even take care of its military service men and women. Its just a farce

Hopefully this movie will open the eyes of US citizens and let them know who the real treat to their existence are.

Watch it 10 Stars for the movie = SiCKO

FamilyRe: What Is The Value Of A Woman Who Can't Cook? by Cactus(m): 7:07am On Jun 11, 2007
if the guy cannot cook and his blaming a girl or complaining about a girl that cannot cook, well its a shame. these days, each person is equally responsible for his or her welfare.

Just because a girl cannot cook doesnt mean a guy should dump a girl. THough it would be great to have a girl that can cook but if your girl cannot cook and u have a wonderful relationship, that is great.

Likewise, u can stay with a girl that can cook and have a bad relationship.

Obviously, the critical issue is not cooking. It is more about understanding and creating a good atmosphere for both parties to grow.

Guys were bachelors before marrying, they cooked for themselves or fastfood themselves before marrying. so why not continue the same trend of cooking or fastfooding if ur girl cannot cook. or hire a chef as someone previously recommended.

Cooking is not a major issue

Problem Statement : Girl in a relationship cannot cook.
Solution : guy cook urself
fastfood
hire a chef

Aerosmith - I don't want to miss a thing

----------------
lyrics
----------------

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While youre far away dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

Dont want to close my eyes
I dont want to fall asleep
Cause Id miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And Im wondering what youre dreaming
Wondering if its me youre seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God were together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever

Dont want to close my eyes
I dont want to fall asleep
Cause Id miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing

I dont want to miss one smile
I dont want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time

Dont want to close my eyes
I dont want to fall asleep
Cause Id miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
Id still miss you baby
And I dont want to miss a thing

Dont want to close my eyes
I dont want to fall asleep
I dont want to miss a thing

TV/MoviesRe: Nigeria Movies Costumes And Makeups = Ghetto Style by Cactus(op): 9:34pm On Jun 07, 2007
There was a movies i saw recently alleged it took 9weeks to shoot. and I think as u mentioned they just cut and paste. I dont think they did any post editing. Also audio quality is bad but some are good. The worst movies u cannot even see the characters' faces it is horrible.

In regards to the music video. definitely music video production are by far better than movies. Good quality and editing.

The first company to really get good quality cameras and tools, with great scripts not all these yeye stuff will really make a killing. also the concept of going to watch in cinema before releasing on movie media(dvd or vcd) should be embraced.

The biggest is making character more people should be used in movies not same characters. You can count more than 20 movies that have 5 or more characters from similar movies in them. I have only seen one chick that really impresses me and I think she has great potential. she was in the movie about a stepfather sleeping with her stepdaughter and getting her pregnant on her birthday. they ended up killing the stepfather. the chick is light in complexion, well spoken with good command of english and nice accent and she dressed well.

Younger people from all across the country should be looking into this to make it in the business. many of the people currently being used i dont like any of them.

Is it because of the costs involved or the time requirement that they spend so little time on editing and post production work?

I am waiting to see Nigerian documentaries, true-life stories, biographies, history movies, war movies (biafra). these are other things that companies can do to expand the audience.

The funniest thing is that creating relative decent production work is not expensive and is not difficult these days. There are many short movies on youtube that are great with awesome editing. highschool students producing great movie concept.

I have short clips that I have captured with normal point and shoot camera and they have great sound quality and picture quality is great for the method of shooting. It is just incredible people are not embracing technology fast enough.
ComputersHow To Make Free And Extremely Cheap Call To Local And Selected International De by Cactus(op): 8:44pm On Jun 07, 2007
Making phone calls these days has becoming relatively cheaper when compared to a decade ago. There are more alternative methods of making phone calls now. The traditional land line phone, cellular phone, and now VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol). The most prevalent VOIP provider, Skype, has established itself reliable and efficient service provider. With attractive and a wide variety of cellular plans and land phone plans, combining two or more of these services can drastically reduce the cost of making calls within US and to international destinations.

Skype provides a year of unlimited calls to You.S. and Canada for $29.95. Broadband access is prevalent and wi-fi access can be found just around the corner therefore this pretty much satisfies the needs of a large number of people looking for ways to reduce the cost of making calls. Requirements to use skype to make calls on the go include a smartphone (*list of available smartphones and mobile devices that support Skype) that can run the Skype mobile application. Cheap and used smartphones are all around and some are also available without plans for example on ebay or amazon or from friends that are trying to get rid of their old phones. This option provides a great advantage compared to using a pay-as-you go plan that are very expensive. This can definitely be a substitute for a pay-as-you-go service plan.

To make free international calls from the United States look at yak4ever. They provide a local exchange service to make free calls to other countries. With free night and weekend minutes for cellphones or flat rate land phone service, yak4ever can be used to make absolutely free calls to countries in Europe, South America. Asia, and Australia. With a combination of Skype and yak4ever, cost of making calls locally and to other countries can now be reduced.

If you are located in Ireland, allfreecallsie or in the United Kingdom allfreecallsuk look at the links listed below based on your location. They provide access numbers for making free international calls and a list of countries that you can call.

With allfreecallsuk you can also become an agent to generate an income.

Other services exists that provide relatively cheap and free calls. The sites mentioned here are probably the best and easiest in my opinion. The three sites for the regions mentioned are maintained by pat phelan.
