» audio OSD popup when track changes
i'd like it if the audio osd would appear when the track changes and visualisations are playing so that you can see the name of the song. i'm sure xbmc used to do that, but it doesn't seem to anymore. personally i have the osd timeout set to 0 so that the song details and album art are always on screen while the vis. is displayed, unfortunately when the next song starts the osd disappears which is really annoying.burriko, this bug was introduced when the osd patch from nmrs was merged. i've recently contacted him about this and he's told me that he will look into it when he gets back home in about a week or so. hope this info help.cool, thanks.remember to log prooved bugs like this on the sourceforge bugtracker :)...... - 2008-12-03

» Ext.nd 2.0.1 - Missing Action Bar (Shared Actions)
Hi, I just tried the new EXT.nd 2.01 Beta version and I am having a problem displaying the Action Bar in Views. I am using the same setup as the EXT database (main.html and mainOLpage) with the html header updated from a profile document i created in the ext-nd database. I have double checked everything i can think of and cross-checked the EXT database, but have been unable to get the Action Bar to display with "Shared Actions" I saw what i thought was a piece of the action bar displayed below the view panel, but can't be sure as it was a very narrow band.

» Buy RT, fly only OW, is that ok?
I need a fly OW to Germany, and the company booked me a RT, and said that once I arrived in Germany they would cancel the return trip. This means that instead of having to pay the full Y fare they can book B class. Is this legal? I am going to accumulate mileage on that flight, i.e. Air Canada / Lufthansa would be able to identify me. Could there be a problem? I don't want to get a nasty phone call from Lufthansa Miles&More or Air Canada.If you don't show up for a return flight it could be for any number of reasons - illness, change of plans, etc. So what? the airline might let you change to another date if you pay a fee. I don't get it. Is your boss telling you that are moving to Germany or are you going back by train and boat?I am movin...... - 2008-12-03

» AS 7000 last night (2/27) cargo hold door left open
AS #310/AA #7000 was delayed out of PDX by an hour last night, then boarded, then we sat there, then were told that "light de-icing" had to be performed thus about an hour and a half delay before pullback from the gate. Then we taxi'd out, start onto the runway, then turned right and headed back in because, as the pilot said, a door to the cargo hold was open. He sounded genuinely embarrassed, and no arguments from anyone onboard even as I sweated my SFO connection; better to be late than leaving this world with someone else's checked luggage through a gaping hole in the fuselage.

http://www.directx.es/images/directx.png Microsoft DirectX version 10.1 is projected to be the last and final update to the DirectX 10 application programming interface (API), the head of developer relations of ATI, graphics product group of Advanced Micro Devices, recently said. While Microsoft DirectX 9 had several shader models, including versions 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0b and 3.0, the DirectX 10 will exist in two versions, 10.0 and 10.1, said Richard Huddy, worldwide developer relations manager of AMDs graphics product group at a conference recently. The DirectX 10.1 is a relatively minor superset of DirectX 10, but it will last for quite a time, unlike the 2.0a or 2.0b versions of shader model 2.0 that were promoted b...... - 2008-12-03

Hey everyone, I'm sick of my plain old black adidas Supernovas so I'm going to paint them cause I got a new pair of boots anyway.

American scales back the high life at Love With Legend gone, airline cuts some perks 06/15/2001 By Terry Maxon / The Dallas Morning News American Airlines passengers flying out of Love Field may soon feel a bit less pampered. Starting July 1, the carrier will eliminate the free coffee and soft drinks before boarding, the free newspapers, the hot towels and the first-class glassware and china that customers have come to expect. It'll make you want to cry in your beer, especially since you'll have to pay for that beer. And wine, too.

I hope that this topic has not already been posted...if it has then i am sorry but i did some extensive searching. If anyone has any experience with the Canon EOS A2e i am in need of your help.

A few days later i loaded some film and proceeded on to my photo shoot and when i got focused in i clicked half way to focus and my internal meter starts to freak out and give me outrageous shutter speeds and aperture settings, The first one it gave me was 1/60 and f.00 the next was 1/125 and f.00, i was fine with the 1/125, but weary of the f.00, so i clicked all of the way and i heard the shutter open ...... - 2008-12-03

There can be possibility that Goraknath of Nepal was actually Genghis Khan Gorkhas of Nepal claim derived their name from Hindu Warrior-saint Goraknath. Some claim that Goraknath lived during 8th or 9th century whereas some say that he lived during 11th or 12th century approximately during same time when Genghis khan lived. Also, Gorkhas means Gor Khans. According to Bhagawan Nityananda, the samadhi shrine (tomb) of Gorakshanath resides at Nath Mandir near the Vajreshwari temple about a kilometer from Ganeshpuri, Maharashtra, India. This might be one of the reason why archealogists are not able to trace the tomb of Genghis khan in Mongolia and outside India.

This is odd, as I am neither: a) applying for a passport; nor b) applying for a job at Passport Canada I called them back and was told "oh, it's just a random check, we do it on one of every two" (?!) Anyone have this happen? Only thing I can think of is maybe my NEXUS expires at some point in the next several months and they are (gasp!) auto-renewing it? SimonSee what you get for being an AC apologist..... :DIs your last name Khadr?I have signed dozens of passport applications over the years and never have been called. Hopefully it was Passport Canada and not some scam artist looking for personal information.The...... - 2008-12-03

» Hasselblad H1
Hi today I had the opportunity to shoot with a H1 with digital back. it's pretty cool, it had three lenses (50mm, 80mm and 100mm). I enjoyed it, but to be honest I prefer the 500cm, dunno, but the digital back would be fine :d what do you think?would love to have the digital back for the 500 cameras, that would be so cool, do wish that it was bigger that 36.9mm Sq but with 16m pixels files, storage for 1150 full res images and long battery it would kick some serious ass dude, I want oneAbout the H1D their web site does list more that three h-lens, a long with a CF lens adapter, do recall reading that the lenses are not Zeiss, the cost is so high IMOHassies make me cry when I see them, esp. the 500cm.

Sorry if this has been suggested before (searched but didnt get any thing). In the Find Users section, it'd be nice for us who have several styles to have a dropdown of all styles you have, so that you select a style, it will show what users are using it. I know theres a hack on vb.org that will display the style used by a user in the postbit, but it'd be easier to have a list of all within the admin cp. Also on the subject of styles, a really nice feature that I could use now as Im designing a new style, is to let only admins use a specific style. The style Im working on now is far from complete, and I dont want ppl using it until its done, so it'd be great if I could check a box that would only allow admins or users by my choosing ...... - 2008-12-03

Just got wind of a phenomenal RT price to many cities in FLA on US. Found on usairways.com. Total, all in, $76.90 RT!! Book for travel 4/1 to 5/25.

I dont know if this is an error fare or just a good deal, but it seems all LH flights for TXL-MUC-TXL are just 6€ plus tax for all flights between Dec 19 and Dec 23. No matter which one you choose on lufthansa.de (as long as seats in economy class are available), the booking engine will always price out in booking class "E". The fare is 6€ plus tax for TXL-MUC-TXL, same-day-return possible. I checked expertflyer and eventhough the cheap fare classes are "0" on many flights, lufthansa.de will still book into E-class. This is good for UA MP members, as United still credits segments flown on LH "E"-class tickets.

» There Can Be Possibility That Goraknath Of Nepal Was Actually Genghis Khan
There can be possibility that Goraknath of Nepal was actually Genghis Khan Gorkhas of Nepal claim derived their name from Hindu Warrior-saint Goraknath. Some claim that Goraknath lived during 8th or 9th century whereas some say that he lived during 11th or 12th century approximately during same time when Genghis khan lived. Also, Gorkhas means Gor Khans. According to Bhagawan Nityananda, the samadhi shrine (tomb) of Gorakshanath resides at Nath Mandir near the Vajreshwari temple about a kilometer from Ganeshpuri, Maharashtra, India. This might be one of the reason why archealogists are not able to trace the tomb of Genghis khan in Mongolia and outside India.
