You can go into the config.ini and increase the memory limits, that usually helps, but I have been having issues with Luna (not sure what version you are on) where large pages will be real slow...like when I am typing, I can type a whole line before the 1st three letters appear on the line and also having the app freeze up when trying to save.

RE: Cutting the Cable
1500.00? How much do you pay for cable and internet? You can save some money, but 1500 a month?Up until recently, I didn't have cable. I just watched Netflix and Amazon Prime via my Roku device on my TV and the online apps on my computer and tablet/phone. You can also stream video via playon with the Roku device and your computer...so if you have DVD's or other videos on your computer, you can view them via the playon app on the Roku device. I have used it a little bit and performance seemed ok. You are installing the playon server software on your computer and the Roku app is the client, so the network is all internal. Hulu is another option. I never really got into the Hulu stuff as much as I did Netflix and Amazon...but some people swear by it. I love my Roku device. Get the $99 one...it has more features and you can even play games on it. It only works with HDMI capable TV's. Unfortunately, the place I am in the middle of moving to only has Comcast (grr)...so I have cable again...I had to drop my ATT internet account.

The finger in the air was a position statement brazenly stated. His entire administration has been a promotion of Islam at home and abroad, and just cataloging the evidence would fill a book. He has made this country cozy for Islam, from ordering NASA to make Muslims feel good about themselves to calling ISIS beheading victim Peter Kassig by the Muslim name that he had adopted in the vain hope of saving his life. If only Obamaââ¬â¢s coziness were limited to such gestures, but from the very beginning of his administration, he labored to topple the strongman governments that had kept a lid on Islamic extremism: Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, Yemen. Overthrowing the Syrian government was also part the program, not yet achieved but still possible. The methodology of each was a tactic from old-school radicalism: stir up domestic trouble that triggers a crackdown, then use the reaction to discredit the government and as a pretext for stirring up greater cycles of trouble until the targeted regime is replaced. Obama is comfortable with Islamââ¬â¢s extreme. He arms such people throughout the Middle East. He has let them into our government. He supported the Muslim Brotherhoodââ¬â¢s Muhammad Morsi as the replacement for Hosni Mubarak, a staunch US ally and enemy of the Muslim Brotherhood, and threatened and bullied Egypt when a massive revolt replaced Morsi with a religious moderate. .

RE: Adobe Phonegap Build question...
That's what it was...I was reading the phonegap build instructions and they said to just put the www folder contents in build (from a Cordova app) and the recent version of Cordova moved the config.xml out of the www folder and put it into the root. Once I put a copy of the config.xml in the root (the www folder in the orginal Cordova app) and configured that properly, things worked just fine :-D It looks for the widget ID in config.xml and since I didn't have a config.xml in the code root, it apparently defaulted to something that was the same in both of the apps.

Had a 17 inch MacBook pro. Wife and I both had I phones. I was all in. When it came time to replace the MacBook Pro, I tried to justify the cost difference. For me, a Mac did not make me more productive. Many claim it makes them much more productive - leading me to believe that either I did not know how to use OS X, or they don't know how to use Windows. None of the tools I use for web development are Mac specific and are all cross platform. For me, I saw no advantage of one OS over the other, so I went with what cost less. Which was a Windows machine from Dell. On Sep 27, 2014 8:20 PM, Bruce Sorge sor...@gmail.com wrote: IMO, you get what you pay for. I was a devout windows and android user. I used to mock apple folks. Then I was offered a work in kind deal, and for some reason, I chose to be paid in the form of a 17 MacBook Pro. It took a while, but in the end, I was a convert. Now I have an iPhone, iPad and of course the Mac. I love them all. I love the interoperability of all three devices. I am looking forward to Yosemite to come out for the Mac to see what new level of interoperability I get. I still have two Windows machines in my house. they run Windows 7 and 8. I don't know why I hang onto them, but on rare occasions I will fire one up. I may turn one of them into a linux machine running Apache, PHP and ColdFusion as well as MySQL for a development web server since the sites I host are all on Linux servers. I don't think that Apple does anything revolutionary. IMO, it appears to me that they see what's out there, what people like and don't like, and make/upgrade a product that has the things that folks want, and not much of what they don't want. Again, my opinion. I don't mind that Apple waits a while to develop something that Android has been doing for a while. I am patient. I was not jonesing for a SWYPE keyboard, but as soon as I upgraded my iPhone to iOS 8, I paid the whopping .99 cents to get it. I am looking forward to seeing how the iWatch is going to work. From what I read, Apple took what Samsung has been doing with their watch, and making tweaks so that it's what people want, and leaving out what they don't want. In the end, its all about what you like. I won't bash a windows or android user (I will bash Windows 8 though) just because they like their systems. As was said in this thread, to each their own.

As for apple products being overpriced, I'm sure there are a lot of people that feel that way. I don't happen to be one of them.

(moving from your desktop to your iPad in your bedroom, for example, would be seamless) ApplePay is a tremendous innovation, with the ability to radically change the way we use Credit Cards So these aren't necessarily revolutionary changes, but neither has anything the competition has done been revolutionary. However, once again, Apple takes its incremental improvements and implements them correctly and with a marketing flair that appeals to its customer base.

I didn't see anyone accusing Ellen of being a serial abuser when she grabbed a 9 iron and tried to brain tiger woods with it, then raced after his fleeing car and smashed the windscreen. Fact is the wife has spoken out again in a rage and told all the do gooders , and those that claim they want to help her to leave her alone, she isn't in danger or trouble and doesn't need help. She said that she and Rice had issues, and they worked them out and are working them out, and all the public and media is doing is destroying him and their family. But I forgot, women are like 12 year old kids who can't make decisions, or take responsibility for their actions. This woman in particular needs the media, you and the rest of the world to tell her what to do, and what to think, and how to behave since you have all labelled her a broken battered person who needs the state to care for her. I find that offensive. Because you have zero information to support that position, so far no one does. No one has respected this woman, her rights or her privacy. She and Rice have been used for ratings and to make money. Their situation has been exploited. If TMZ wanted to help, they could have quietly called her and spoken to her, rather than splashed that video for the world to see. If the NFL wanted to do anything but protect its name and its image they could have sent people to speak to BOTH of them, trained professionals, to find out what the hell was going on with its player and his family life. No one wants to help, and no one cares whether help is needed or not. This is about money at this point. And I find it ridiculous that so many are pretending it is about the woman. It isn't. It never was. TMZ has just made millions from a domestic dispute between a husband and wife, and ruined both their lives in the process. Somehow, this is a win for human and civil rights, the women's rights movement, a win against domestic violence, and a feel good moment for many people who can pat themselves on the back and say to themselves Yes..Justice has been done Or At least this poor woman won't go through what I went through (nevermind they have no damned clue if she's going through anything at all).

I don't recall if his tone changed in 2004 but then again I don't think it had to given his competition. Why I still call BS even though some policies have continued under Obama: * The Affordable Care Act - This is a taxpayer funded healthcare management system that requires Americans to purchase a product or be penalized by a federal agency. It further directs and defines services provided to americans and mandates employer level contributions to plans. It also creates penalties for high-end cadillac plans and increases FICA medicare taxes for those that make above a certain level (there is a 0.09% FICA Medicare surcharge for those making in excess of $200,000). All these combine to create a larger federal governmental structure that is stronger and more insinuated in the daily lives of citizens. * The actions of Eric Holder - The Holder Department of Justice has been more litigious than any that I can recall * Ardent support of policy changes for social issues such as minimum wage, abortion (including parental consent) and LGBT issues (yeah, I know you mentioned that). * Speeches that directly support income redistribution There are more but unfortunately I have to end it there due to the time. My point is this: It's not in his similarity to Bush that makes him a moderate conservative (wow, there's a term that doesn't exist) but in the actions he has taken to directly grow the size of the federal government, create dependencies on it and lessen the power of the individual states through the same fiscal tactics that brought about the 55 mile per hour speed limit.

RE: Democrats set to lose the senate
He pretty much continued all of Bush's policies. The only liberal part of his polices has been what the has done for the LGBTQ Community and maybe the equal pay for women bills. Other than that, he turned out to be not much different than Bush, with the exception of being a bit more prudent about sending our troops into harm's way. I was trying to find what he was talking about and the only stuff I saw were on the usual tinfoil hat nutjob sites. I will check those out... Eric -Original Message- From: C.

RE: can't start apache after installing and configuring cf 11
I think it is called apache2.conf now...the latest version of apache changed it from the httpd.conf file. Not sure why they did that. It seems pretty stupid when theat is such a long standing standard. It also makes it difficult to get software to work with apache because most look for httpd file. I ended up creating a dynamic link called httpd.conf that linked to the apache2.conf file.

RE: RIP Robin Williams...
Well said Mr President... Robin Williams was an airman, a doctor, a genie, a nanny, a president, a professor, a bangarang Peter Pan, and everything in between. But he was one of a kind. He arrived in our lives as an alien - but he ended up touching every element of the human spirit. He made us laugh. He made us cry. He gave his immeasurable talent freely and generously to those who needed it most - from our troops stationed abroad to the marginalized on our own streets. The Obama family offers our condolences to Robin's family, his friends, and everyone who found their voice and their verse thanks to Robin Williams. -Barack Obama -Original Message- From: Scott Stroz [mailto:boyz...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, August 11, 2014 8:03 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: RIP Robin Williams...

Well, no. Scrum is an attempt to apply engineering principles to a historically unmeasurable process. and like with baking, or making cement, following the process AS CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE is the actual purpose. the client can say i need a double batch, or I need it to dry underwater, but that just directs the team to change the formula, the client doesn't get to say add more lyme, and use orange juice instead of water. when done well, i have seen it work great. but i usually see a train wreck. but that is true of all dev methodologies. which is why agile seems like the promised land for pms and managers.
