No idea. Moments ago I deleted all of my contents trying to remove a side tab. Maybe I'll figure it out as I rebuild my homepage. [edit]ah, there's a restore option![/edit]

Wow. You could spend a lifetime in that room and never be bored.

Looks like they've found some belongings 125 miles south from where he took off. His wife always said he wouldn't go out without a fight. Makes you wonder... Click

"Falcon 1 has made history as the first privately developed liquid fueled launch vehicle to achieve earth orbit!" Here...[^]

(I think this is the documentary): History Channel - The Next Big Bang Sat, Sep 27, 5:00p - 6:00p After $10 billion and 40 years of planning and construction of the Large Hadron Collider, the biggest science experiment in history may yield answers about the universe.

Wow. I had just read about a transformer (a massive transformer) going bad, and now this. It's to be expected given the complexity of the operation. The History Channel had a great documentary on the LHC a few nights ago. They tried to cram a bit too much science into an hour show but it's still worth watching if you spot it playing.

Hi John. Are you still having trouble with this? I don't see any glaring problem with what you posted. I'm doing some WCF stuff today so I might just import this code into my project to call a dummy service and take a look. When you delete the system.serviceModel from your app.config, what type of exception gets generated? Also, it sounds like you're using the "Add a Service Reference" to generate the proxy. Try using SVCUTIL (VS tools/command prompt) as it allows for better control of the generated client proxy classes. I recall reading somewhere that adding a service reference uses a different mechanism than svcutil.exe. For example, you can tell svcutil to not generate app.config entries. It's possible that using the other method creates an attribute tag in the generated class that points to the app.config for it's attributes instead of your class.

Interesting point. Are you saying that non-transferable means an original license can only be used and must be destroyed upon change of ownership (in this case, hardware)?

The record companies thought the same thing in the 1980's... CD - CD reader. Lose the CD, buy another. It didn't work out in the end.

lol +5. I do know Ori means fold (from eating Sushi). Gami must mean paper or something. Beats the heck out of me what towel is.

Someone posted a great link to Hurricane Ike photos a few days ago. There was one poignant picture of a sole home left standing amidst total destruction. Some, on the internet, said it was a fake. It wasn't. CNN posted a story on it: http://www.cnn.com/2008/US/09/18/ike.last.house.standing/index.html?eref=rss_topstories

Hardware is kind of funny. Most people seem to understand that it depreciates rapidly. They sell their machines with whatever software it came with when they bought them. They don't realize that the software is worth more than the hardware and that the software licenses can be used for upgrades at reduced cost. Most don't understand licensing anyways. I recently bought two IBM xSeries rack servers that are pretty capable on their own, for $250. One had a Windows 2003 R2 5 client license and the other had a Windows 2003 Datacenter 25 client license. What a deal. It was like getting the hardware for free and having them pay me a few bucks!!

I ran 150' without problems, but only 90 of that went outdoors. I think Cat 5 max is ~250 - 300 feet. Not sure about the router though. You can always try it out before installing it.

Yeah, it looks like someone screwed up and it's grabbing a horizontal instead of vertical format ad for the side menu. I thought it was my browser at first.

Absolutely agree or it would be like writing a book with disregard to pagination, margins, paragraphs and chapters. In the end, source code is the product and a product should look professional.

That's excellent! It gave me a WTF moment when the flashing lights started up. Goes well with Kent Sharkeys CP Newsletter one liner: "What can IT learn from the Large Hadron Collider?" It's all fun and games until someone creates a black hole?

I was on my way into the office when the first plane hit. The music on the radio was interrupted with an announcement. As soon as I walked in, I turned on the TV in my office and everyone piled in (I had a satellite feed). We watched as the second plane hit. Then my brother called me from Washington DC and said a plane had crashed into the Pentagon. I turned to my business partner and said we're at war. A few moments later, trade center two collapsed. Someone asked what happened and I barely was able to say "it collapsed". Then trade center one went down. Not another word was said. Our phones didn't ring. No emails were sent or received. The usual sounds of planes gave way to complete silence. That gave way to the thunderous sound of low flying fighter jets. We all left and you could see a smoke haze in the distant sky. I drove home, sat on the couch and cried. A week later I was on Madison Ave for a meeting. There was a stench in the air unlike normal New York City smells. Everyone was quiet, even in a crowded coffee shop. No one smiled. No one talked. I'll never forget any of it nor the people that we later came to know of their heroic actions.

What did the negative subatomic particle say to the positive subatomic particle? "Do my bosons give you a hadron?"

Yeah, it's not a biggie. I'll just have to use IE7 for VS. I saw your other post on IE8 processes. Yesterday, I had 6 IE8 processes active and only had one tab going so I killed each one. Back to IE7. I'll have to screw around with Chrome some more, at least for my Xbap app.
