Safari 4, here and gone.

I have had a problem with my Mail on my Mac. When I get ASF Windows attachments, Mail locks up and crashes. Thought it was a plugin, but I don't use any. I checked to be sure. So since I was thinking I may have to reload, I would try Safari 4 out. It is touted as the fastest Safari ever. I guess it is. The things I didn't like though, it looked a bit different. Tab corners were not as smooth, and the appearance just seemed a little different. I tried the newest feature, the one that downloads every page in your bookmarks, in a cover flow design. It was ok, but not needed by me. I also don't want my browser connecting to every single site just to have it at the ready. Thats cool for lazy geeks, but I like to click on my link, and get the page fresh right then and there. Not based on a cache file. Broadband is quite fast enough! I liked Safari 3 because it was fast, small footprint, and not much bloated code. Safari 4 goes against that idea, even if the render engine is beefed up. It is just principle.

My biggest pet peeve about Apple and Mac software updates still stands true today! There is no way to uninstall Safari 4 to back up to Safari 3. Sure you can use Time Machine, but again, thats another big program that eats up system resources. I just want a text or a few buttons. No need for swirly graphics. I want a Software Update option to uninstall Safari 4. No luck.

I re-installed OS X, patched it, and still had the Mail lockup. Seems Apple had a fix package for 10.5.6, for a problem they knew about. That worked! I reloaded for nothing, but the Mac does seem a bit snappier. I just have so many things loaded. yes that may be the problem, I plan to look over what is plugged into the system preferences folder. I may move a few things and see if that helps.

In the meantime, if you like Safari 3, keep it. Apple loves to change things. Seems they used to slap Microsoft around alot, but Windows has a few features that even the Mac has yet to adopt. Maybe Macs are not as great as the price tries to indicate. Oh I bought new laptop too, and Dude, it was a Dell! I saved $1500!

Glenn Beck - America is Fed Up!

Take a look at this letter from a viewer from the Glen Beck Show. It illustrates what most American's want, and how fed up we are with Washington. I see a Conservative revolution brewing!

ABC - One sided STATE run news media

As posted on Drudge Report... Can you say Agenda driven? ABC was one of the last media outlets I trusted. That is gone now. I realize that CBS, NBC and ABC are all controlled by special interest. FOX is the last one to present both sides. Maybe FOX should air a counter point during the Obama Show?


ABC REFUSES OPPOSITION ADS DURING WHITE HOUSE SPECIAL
Wed Jun 17 2009 15:15:00 ET

ABC is refusing to air paid ads during its White House health care presentation, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned, including a paid-for alternative viewpoint!

The development comes a day after the network denied a request by the Republican National Committee to feature a representative of the party's views during the Obama special.

Conservatives for Patients Rights requested the rates to buy a 60-second spot immediately preceding 'Prescription for America'.

Statement from Rick Scott, chairman of Conservatives for Patients Rights:

"It is unfortunate - and unusual - that ABC is refusing to accept paid advertising that would present an alternative viewpoint for the White House health care event. Health care is an issue that touches every American and all potential pieces of legislation have carried a pricetag in excess of $1 trillion of taxpayers' money. The American people deserve a healthy, robust debate on this issue and ABC's decision - as of now - to exclude even paid advertisements that present an alternative view does a disservice to the public. Our organization is more than willing to purchase ad time on ABC to present an alternative viewpoint and our hope is that ABC will reconsider having such viewpoints be part of this crucial debate for the American people. We were surprised to hear that paid advertisements would not be accepted when we inquired and we would certainly be open to purchasing time if ABC would reconsider."

Letterman Apologizes - Silent Majority Starting to Speak Up!

David Letterman made some off color jokes about Governor Sarah Palin's daughter. Seems the heat is on, and the so called silent majority, you, the people who believe in morals, and think it not right to lambaste someone just for being related to a public figure... have decided to put pressure on old Liberal CBS and the Letterman show. To the point that Letterman, in his own Late Night delivery, actually apologizes for those jokes. Check out the Letterman video clip. I have always liked Letterman, but the attack on Conservatives must stop!

Rush Limbaugh - Obama is Destroying Economy!

Please listen to some truth about the US economy. Obama, wether he plans to or not, is destroying the US economy. I aks that you listen to basic principles about the economy. Rush doesn't attack, he doesn't need to. He just believes in his philosophy, and so do I.

Obama Confirmed Muslim!

During a conference call in preparation for President Obama's trip to Cairo, Egypt, where he will address the Muslim world, deputy National Security Adviser for Strategic Communications Denis McDonough said "the President himself experienced Islam on three continents before he was able to -- or before he's been able to visit, really, the heart of the Islamic world -- you know, growing up in Indonesia, having a Muslim father -- obviously Muslim Americans (are) a key part of Illinois and Chicago."

Possible CURE for Cancer!

Take a look at this. This man insists that Hemp (Marijuana) OIL is a cure for cancer, along with many other conditions. Very interesting!


Cannabis Cures Cancer - "Run From The Cure"

Under an Obama Administration, just like 1960's all over again!

Take a look at this article, a black reporter and Reverend was hauled away from the scene forcibly. She wanted to give a letter to the President and had Press credentials. Be for warned, this will happen more and more. Obama doesn't care about rights of the Press, or about your rights, only his right to control your lives. Come on, put the facts of the last 100 days together folks!

Maryland Millionaires Leaving State!

Maryland's idiotic Socialist Governor and Annapolis Democrats have raised taxes enough that 1/3 of our Millionaires have left the state. The only way to increase revenues are to CUT TAXES!


One-third of the millionaires have disappeared from Maryland tax rolls. In 2008 roughly 3,000 million-dollar income tax returns were filed by the end of April. This year there were 2,000, which the state comptroller's office concedes is a "substantial decline." On those missing returns, the government collects 6.25% of nothing. Instead of the state coffers gaining the extra $106 million the politicians predicted, millionaires paid $100 million less in taxes than they did last year -- even at higher rates.


When will they learn?

Is Barry Obama Crazy?

By Joseph Farah, editor and CEO of WorldNetDaily

I KNOW.

"Is Barack Obama Crazy?" is a pretty provocative subject for an email.

I admit, I don't know the answer to the question.

But, given Barack Obama's actions in the first few months of his administration, it's a valid question.

And so, the May issue of WorldNetDaily's acclaimed monthly Whistleblower magazine takes it on.

Let's examine some of the evidence:

If you held a job and people were questioning your qualifications, and all you had to do to put an end to those questions, not to mention more than a dozen lawsuits filed against you, was to produce a valid birth certificate you claimed to possess, would you refuse to take that simple step? Or would you, as Obama has done, spend at least $1 million to fight the lawsuits? I think most people would agree that someone who chose the latter is either crazy or doesn't have a valid birth certificate.

Let's say you got a job in which you succeeded someone with whom you disagreed passionately.Would you try to have that person prosecuted over those differences, knowing that some day, someone with whom you disagree would succeed you and possibly contemplate the same course of action? That's what Obama talked about doing in the case of his disagreement with George W. Bush over the practice of coercive interrogations – policies, I might point out, that were employed not just by his immediate predecessor, but by every war-time president in the history of the United States.

Or what do you make of Obama's efforts to ban the use of the words "terror" and "terrorism" from his administration's lexicon? The administration prefers to call attacks on terrorists "overseas contingency operations." And terrorist attacks at home are referred to as "man-caused disasters." These new terms are apparently considered less offensive to terrorists.

While there are hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens voluntarily serving in arms overseas, the Obama administration put out a report to law enforcement agencies throughout the country to be wary of returning veterans, because they might be more inclined to get involved in "right-wing extremist" activities.

Obama presides – legitimately or illegitimately – over a nation founded on the ideals of "independence" and "national sovereignty." Yet, in a speech given in Prague, what was his prescription for making the world a better place? "All nations must come together to build a stronger, global regime," he said.

How about his solution to an economic crisis spurred by too much indebtedness? More debt.

Let's say you're the first black president. Do you appoint a black attorney general who indicts the people who just elected you as a "nation of cowards" on matters of race?

Imagine appointing to a top policy position at the Defense Department, a columnist from the Los Angeles Times who believes U.S. policies were to blame for the 9/11 attacks by al-Qaida. That would be Rosa Brooks, who also previously referred to Obama's immediate predecessor as "our torturer in chief " and a "psychotic who need(s) treatment" while comparing Bush's arguments for waging a war on terrorism to Adolf Hitler's use of political propaganda.
I could go on, but I think you get the picture.

I don't know if any of these actions mean the president is crazy. But I do know they mean he is dangerous to the security and prosperity of the nation.

WWE Kane is a Really Smart Dude!

Glenn Jacobs, better known as Kane on WWE Pro Wrestling, is one smart dude! One of my favorite on air personalities, he also seems to be one of my favorite conservatives! Glenn posted a great lesson on economics in March, on Lew Rockwell. Glenn, maybe you should run for office! Where can I send the money for your campaign? See more posts from Glenn on his Blog, named Adventures of Citizen X. Gotta love that name too!

This Blogger is Stunned - Obama for Military Tribunals!

Yes, I am truly stunned. Obama reversed some of his anti war rhetoric this past week, and spoke out FOR Military Tribunals, to be held in Guantanimo Bay. I myself think this is a very good thing. I must admit, it is one thing I like from a slew of things I dislike. But I am glad to see Obama has an opinion other than his political base. He has a very long way to go to the middle, but this is progress.

Again - Bailout Money Does NOT Save Chrysler!

More wasted money from American taxpayers. Chrysler will be sold to FIAT! Looks like the bailout money also didn't save Chrysler from almost shutting down, and plants closing. Though the deal says no Chrysler workers will lose jobs, for how long? Eventually, the employees will be tossed out like Obama did to Taxpayer funds! So looks like Obama has helped give Chrysler to a foreign owner!

Obama's 100 Days of Failure!

But will you hear it in the mainstream media, no way! They love him, he pushes exactly what they want, control over you. Read the article from the Heritage Foundation, it seems more fair than I would have been. I would have blasted him as incompetent!

Obama Bailout Cash Doesn't Save Pontiac!

Seems that the huge bailout cash to GM didn't do a thing. Rather, Pontiac is the first on the chopping block from GM. GM will kill off the Pontiac brand, and take the cash and run. No American Jobs have been saved by the lump sum bailout money. GM also announced that it will be cutting 9 weeks off of production soon.

I look at the Pontiac website, and all I see are small crappy cars. Not the Pontiac I recall as a kid. No wonder they are getting the ax! I am surprised Hummer is still alive!

NEW PC Linux Released


This NEW PC Linux release features kernel 2.6.26.8.tex3, KDE 3.5.10, Open Office 3.0, Firefox 3.0.7, Thunderbird 2.0.0.14, Ktorrent, Frostwire, Amarok, Flash, Java JRE, Compiz-Fusion 3D and much more. We decided to use kde3-5-10 as our default desktop as we could not achieve a similar functionality from kde4. We will however offer kde4 as an alternative desktop environment available from the repository once we stabilize it. PCLinuxOS is an rpm based distribution utilizing apt-get with a Synaptic Software Manager frontend. In addition to the above PCLinuxOS comes with mklivecd GUI, a nice utility to build a custom live CD from your install. Install or remove what you want then remaster your own cd. Great for backups or to give to friends. PCLinuxOS is also known as as rolling release distribution. What that means is you install once and update it when new applications become available from our repository.

Capitalist Funded Bailout, NOT Government Funded Bailout!

This is the way America works... The government is not supposed to bailout and aid citizens, that is beyond the scope of government. Private Industry is supposed to help America, as well as private citizens! WalMart once again proves they are TRUE BLUE American. They have donated to charity with some big funds! Thanks to WalMart, even in this generally poor economy!

Apple Insider

This is a fantastic and interesting article on what Apple does well, and what they do poorly. Many companies and government agencies could learn much from a tech leader, and learn what not to do!

Mac Heist

Just a few days left to grab the latest Mac Heist bundle. I have gotten every bundle each year, and have been very happy! The utilities and the value are unheard of. It is definitely the model by which authors of new software should consider. You help charity, get cools software, and save money! If I get 2 people to purchase, I get a bunch more APPS. Consider it!

Salmonella Again?

Seems there is yet another Salmonella poisoning warning. I wonder, why so many in the last few months? 1st it was Spinach, then Eggs, then Tomatoes... Now it is Pistachios. I have to ask, why are the foods we get from overseas so contaminated? This rarely happened when we bought US foods. Could it be mishandling? Could it be by design? I mean on purpose? Time to cut the ties from many of these low rent, low quality countries that employ slave labor to feed America.
