Today at work, I HAVE to be at a meeting at 10:00.  Since that's usually when I (aim to) get to work, I MUST get there earlier.  I'm on a committee to look at potential new and different health care providers and options for the library system.  I was given some stuff to look at, but I haven't had a lot of time to look at it, what with being in a show, and all.  So, I'll glance through it in the morning.  I don't think that the committee is expecting a recommendation today, so I should be okay.  I missed the previous meeting because I was not told when it would be.  They just forgot to include me on their e-mails.  Spoo on them.  Anyway, I'm off to bed now.

Have a good day, all!

Good morning, all!  I slept quite well.  I had a weird dream that I was recording Menotti's opera The Saint of Bleecker Street with Diana Montague and frustrated by a cast that did not sound New Yawkish at all. I remember Diana and Judy Sherman being iin it, and that's about it.

This morning, I will run down to City Center, visit briefly with Joshie, then head to Chelsea Music and finish the two charts I began yesterday,  I'm hoping I can be out of there no later than 3-3:30 so I can get home and deposit that City Center check.

THE TARNISHED ANGELS
CAPTAIN LIGHTFOOT
TAZA, SON OF COCHISE.

All of the above star Rock Hudson.

A question for DR Cillaliz when she checks in tonight:

About the juror who wouldn't budge:  Since she was anti-death penalty going into the whole thing and she would have been asked under oath about her feelings about the death penalty, could she be charged with perjury for not disclosing her belief?  In theory and in reality?

Question re DNS issues:

Ben posted the other day on how to flush your DNS cache, so I know how to get a command prompt and do that.  Haven't actually done it, but I'd feel confident doing it. 

So how does one change their DNS server from Google (or whatever) to another?  Of course this is bound to be different for every system.  Mine is Windows 7.  I've googled it and read through a couple of instructions, and truthfully I'd be reluctant to try flying solo on it the first time.
Title: Re: DNS IS THE NEW PITA (PAIN IN THE ASS)
Post by: Ben on March 06, 2015, 07:29:29 AM
Charles, that I don't know how to do. I would have to look at the things you've googled to see what's involved. As I said about flushing the DNS cache, I think that's fairly simple, even for a non-tech person but changing the DNS from Google or some other search engine to another is out of my bailiwick at the moment.

DR LAURA during the voir dire she said she could vote for DP if she felt the evidence merited it.

I actually think LWOP will be better in the long run, no state paid for appeals....she is on her own....and no appeals except in the state.  I don't think she can appeal to a federal court.  And no bleeding hearts getting involved in her case for their own publicity.

So now she can be sentenced and disappear into the system....probably to be killed by a fellow prisoner or two....found mysteriously dead somewhere on the grounds....

The only thing I really hated was seeing her FAT ASS lying attorney standing on the courthouse steps saying:  "The defense team will take no questions on the day of this great victory!"

Post by: bk on March 06, 2015, 10:35:53 AM
I'm not sure flushing a cache would work with this particular problem.  It had to ultimately be fixed by Cox.  I have no idea how long it will take to fix the Google problem, but since it's affecting many more people it will probably be faster.  The Cox problem was finally fixed yesterday because my guy got on the phone with their tech people and worked through it.  Changing the DNS server on a Mac took about four seconds.  I just went to system preferences, "network", advanced settings, "DNS", and changed one address number, hit "okay" then "apply" and that was it.  When the Google thing is fixed I'll go repeat that and put back in the Google DNS number, which is very easy - 8.8.8.8.

And I am home. I've had enough slipping and sliding around streets and sidewalks for the past two days and I am glad to be in.  I waited over twenty minutes for a 104 bus this morning since I just missed the ne that arrived around 9:15. The next was due at 9:29 and never showed.  Around 9:40, a NOT IN SERVICE bus came down Broadway and I flipped the driver the bird since by that point my hands and ears were getting numb. Around 10-15 minutes after that, two buses arrived. Goddam MTA 

So, I got to City Center around 30 minutes later than anticipated, visited with Joshie and Rob Berman for about 20 minutes and waited another 20 minutes for aNo 7 buys. What the hell?

The meeting this morning went well.  I just sat there and listened to the questions and answers that everyone else asked and answered.  It kind of looks like I just need to be there to be another person on the Supervisors' Union side.  I won't have to do any real research or anything like that.  Our next meeting is a week from next Wednesday, and then it'll pretty much be about once a month.  The best part is that it's on work time!  At first, we (the union side) had to ask that this be on work time, and the management agreed. :)

If I worked the hours that Vixmom works, I would collapse as soon as I was off work on Friday.

Of course, I wouldn't climb out of bed again until Monday morning.

As would most of us.  But really, she should want to be out partying!

But, of course, Vixmom spends her off time giving back, and doing the work of the Lord.

I am trying to pay it forward as much as I can, but that is nowhere near what Vixmom does in a single week.

They have a combination bowling alley and café in one part of the store.

I wasn't allowed to bowl, but I was able to eat in the café (or maybe they call it a grill).

It was a double burger, but I guess I am so used to fast food double burgers combined making a total of a quarter of a pound.

One show was Mel Gibson's "Hamlet."

My dad's VHS tape was too bad (to me) to make a good DVD, so I bought a cheap (new) DVD from Amazon for him. :)

My dad has a couple of other "Hamlets" on DVD and wanted to have this one, too, even if it was from his crappy VHS tape.

The other program that he had on VHS is called "The Wannsee Conference."
Title: Re: DNS IS THE NEW PITA (PAIN IN THE ASS)
Post by: George on March 06, 2015, 11:17:49 PM
It's a German scripted drama in German (fortunately, with subtitles) about the conference when the Nazis decided to imprison and/or kill the Jews during World War II.

And there's an actual documentary also called "The Wannsee Conference," but that's not what he wants.
Title: Re: DNS IS THE NEW PITA (PAIN IN THE ASS)
Post by: George on March 06, 2015, 11:20:31 PM
The VHS tape for "The Wannsee Conference" is actually not too bad for an old VHS tape.

It doesn't have the problems that "Hamlet" has.

Those two CDs were the only ones that I had "Saved for later" that had Amazon prices as cheap as market sellers.

Post by: George on March 06, 2015, 11:38:49 PM
Most other things that I have saved, have copies available from market sellers that are less than Amazon's price, so it's not worth it to spend the extra money for free shipping.
