I never can't remember the Notepad equivalent of "F3" (Find Next) in Word and Excel. Here are the keyboard shortcuts, that are most useful, but almost impossible to remember. Also I constantly need Euro currency symbol (€) and Temperature Degree symbol (°), when writing my travel notes about Europe.
Your Career, Your Family, Your Retirement. Do these words make you wake up at night? All-along I was thinking that I am too childish and immature to participate in those games. Now, reading Buddhist literature, I am discovering a convenient alternative view on this matter. The whole life is a game with a sad ending. And you play all those games throughout: education, family, career, saving and growing old. Well, you have to do it, don’t you? But if you put too much effort in any of those games, you behave like a child, who believes that game is a reality, and he gets upset, if others do not play fair.…
Attention! I just realized that Perihelion and Solstice has NOTHING to do with each other. Earth Perihelion is when Earth is closest to the sun. For example this time it falls on January 2, 2016. That does NOT affect season change on planet Earth and this date moves forward rather quickly (1 calendar day every 60 years) through our human centuries. Being closest to the Sun doesn’t specifically affect the season in Northern hemisphere for two reasons: First – the difference between closest and furthest distances from the Sun is only 3.4%. Imagine being able to see an object from 91.4 yards other than from 94.5 yards. Second – the entire planet (both hemispheres) is being…
We woke up at 8:22 in Veterbo. Breakfast here was one of the most luscious. In addition to all the standard staples of breakfast, they also presented fresh fruits and more. This was probably the best breakfast for the whole trip. Odometer showed 9,472 after first day of driving (120 km). We checked out from hotel at 11:34. We drove toward Bagnoregio. On the way there we made our first stop at a supermarket. First task of the day is to get a shopping cart for €1, and not to forget to return your cart and get your one euro back. From super-small village in Lazio towards a well established…
There is a new APP for iPhone and Android. You take pictures and they float to a server to be seen by people in your WAVE. Each time you open Echowaves, you prompted to upload your latest photos. Instantly these photos can be seen by you and by people who share your wave. You can send invitations to join from phone to phone, without email. No information is collected about you – you only need user name and password. If someone in your circle does not have a smart phone, your pictures can be see using a web browser. This is good if you want someone like your parents to see…
Sometime you have to deal with IRS in the month other that April. It means that you received a dreaded letter from them, prompting to contact and setup an appointment. Do not start to worry immediately and automatically. Most likely scenario is that some unusual percentage or number was caught by a computer, and it is now your turn to show some mathematical skills. All you need to do is show that your numbers are all good and here is the way you arrived to your totals. Sound simple enough.
WORDS Religious education for beginners should use normal words. Any word that is unusual or stigmatized causes listener to concentrate on words instead of meaning. Think of listeners as timid deer that came out of the woods for the sounds of unusual tune. Every word should strike “Me too, me too“, instead of “Oh, no, not again! I already head that many time before.” The most important is background information to obtain, is what king of doubts and uncertainties brought this new soul to the conversation. SENTENCES Every sentence should maintain the desired level of romanticism and mystery. Every sentence should create a sense of comfortable hallway, where all interesting…
Recently, I spent about 36 hours researching, and thinking, and trying, and learning a lot about Apache server before I could crack this one. After I found a solution, a had a long <VirtualHost> entry. In this article I present only entries that are required for reverse proxy to work and your Node.js app still to be aware of client IP address. Problem: You want Apache 2.4 to be your front end for your Node.js application. All the transaction should occur over HTTPS. Your visitors do not have to specify a post number in URL. I do not cover here: – how to install and configure Node.js; – how to get a…
This is a holiday in Italy – Ferragosto or Assumption Day (The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven at the end of her earthly life). But our car rental agency at the train station should be opened. This is also a Napoleon birthday (1769). We woke up at 10, left the hotel at 11:30. For 4 nights in Rome we paid €314. We bought the bus tickets at 11:46 (€3). When we reached Termini – the train station (12:45), our rental agency (Maggiore Rent) said that it is too late, and our car is gone, rented out. So they knew how to make a reservation, they just did not know…
