Forum in China shut down
According to different China mailing lists, SCMP is reporting that the “Century China” forum/BBS in the PRC has been shut down.
A popular online forum co-sponsored by the Chinese University of Hong Kong’s Institute of Chinese Studies has been ordered to shut down as mainland authorities move to tighten their grip on the internet.
Chinese University and the Beijing Zhongqing Future Community Culture Development Research Institute set up the Century China site in July 2000. It issued an online notice yesterday saying it would be taken offline along with several forums popular among mainland intellectuals and students.
Century China hosted eight online forums, including Century Classroom - the most popular - which had attracted more than 30,000 registered members. A Century China official said it had received an order on Monday from the Beijing Communications Administration and was scrambling to take the site offline yesterday.

Hey guys I had an old laptop running XP Pro. A couple of weeks ago, every time I would connect to the internet via DSL or wireless, the hard drive light would come on - as if it were writing something to the hard drive. It would cause IE to run slower than dial-up. I looked in task manager and although the CPU usage was high, there didn’t seem to be a process listed that was using it. I used LavaSoft Adaware to scan on a regular basis as well as Norton 2005. I eventually gave up and bought a new laptop (Vista Home), which now has the same problem. It is obviously related to something that I copied over to the new computer from the old computer. But the things is, Norton Internet security isn’t picking up a virus. I used it to scan everything before copying it on to the new computer. Has anyone heard of such a thing or had the same problem? I’d much rather be able to find and remove the problem rather than restore.
Thanks!

Xtracum cum pills are composed of natural ingredients that for centuries have been used in ancient medicine to increase libido, sexual stimulation, and virility. Many of these herbal ingredients have been used in Asia and South America for thousands of years as sexual stimulants. In the past couple hundred years, European medicine has forgotten the raw power that the right herbs can have within the men’s body.

Top 10 Logo Design Tips
Over the years, MapleLeaflogo.com has been designing logos and accumulating articles and resources for
its clients. Finally, they’ve released a concise set of logo design tips to help you along with your project,
and ensure that you end up with a logo that will perfectly suit your needs. So without further ado, here are
Maple Leaf Logo’s top ten tips!
1. Keep it Simple!
A complicated logo will not only make your logo difficult to reproduce and maintain, but you will also fail to
engage your audience.
2. Engage your Audience
If people are able to discover the ‘trick’ of your logo within a reasonable amount of time, this will help to
create a memorable and entertaining experience between you and your audience.
3. Logo Longevity - Think Ahead!
There are many long-standing companies whose logos have stood the test of time. Type-based logos
are good for this. The IBM logo is a great example. They offer a variety of products and services on an
international level, and also provide research, design and consulting services. They’ve succeeded in
communicating all of this through their logo, but we think they are due for an update very soon!
4. Vector is better
Although it’s tempting to use detailed illustrations and complex 3d effects in a logo, chances are that it will
not serve you well. Clean, crisp lines with very limited colors are almost always more effective than an
illustration or complex 3d rendering.
5. Adaptability - Be Ready for Change
Generally speaking, the best thing for small business start-ups is to have an icon and logo-type designed
at the same time. This will allow you to use the logo as a stand-alone image, or use it along with the type-font
name as well. Often times, companies will use only the icon on its products and packaging materials.
This is a common practice among software companies and book publishers.
6. Make it Memorable
A good test to ensure that your logo design is memorable is to show it to a friend and ask him/her to retrace it
a week later. A good design should use a recognizable shape or element for it to be easily remembered.
7. Relevance - Keep your Products and Services in Mind
A memorable logo is great, but it should also get your customers to start thinking about the products or
services that you offer. You should ensure that the logo relates to your business in some shape or form.
Yes, the monkey can sell just about anything from cigarettes to cell phones, but there’s a limit! Isn’t there?
8. Choose your Colors Wisely
Try to keep your selection of colors down to two or three. Too many colors will increase your cost of production and make it more difficult to reproduce.
One interesting idea that we’ve seen used is to change the color of the logo on things like business cards
and stationery depending on the market segmentations of the clientele.
9. Keep it Unique
This should be straightforward. You want to be sure that your company is easily identified among your
industry and competitors. Be sure to carefully research your industry and target market before embarking
on a logo design.
10. Versatility Pays Dividends
One of the most important attributes of a good logo design is versatility. You want to portray a consistent
image across all of your marketing materials, including signs, letterhead, business cards, products lines, and
web sites.
For a professional designed logo I recommend visiting http://www.mapleleaflogo.com for all your online design
needs. They offer a cool online design brief and within 2 days your professional designed logo is completed!

I’ve often heard tattoo artists rant about people getting visible tattoos (hands, neck) the moment they hit 18 before they have other work.
Recently I discovered a rant on quite a respected figure in the tattoo community’s Myspace. I say rant, it was more like pure venomous hatred.
It would seem that some find young people with visible ink, impatient and disrespectful, and they must all just think it’s cool to have visible work.
I’m 23, My first tattoo was on my shoulder, then my wrists, then I got a full sleeve. Then I moved to my hands, then neck and I also have a large part of my leg tattooed.
It took me about two years to get the opportunity to get my hand tattooed by my idol, and then my neck by an artist I greatly admire, a lot of time, effort and thought was put into both of these.
Even though I’m somewhat older and do have a fair bit of coverage, I might still be classed as young and “under-tattooed” to have such visible work, and I can’t help but think that’s kinda crazy!
Sure I’ve seen some 18 year olds with kanji on their necks or poorly executed skulls on their hands, and you can almost tell they rushed into it, wanting everyone to see their new work as clearly as possible, and fine that to me is impatient and maybe even attention seeking.
Basically what I’m trying to say is that not everyone who has visible work is disrespectful to the art, some people invest a great deal of time, money and effort into getting that particular location inked with the highest standard work possible.
It’s kinda funny to find prejudice within a community that tries so hard to divert it away from itself.
Thoughts?

I hate people Pimping or Promoting stuff on forums/blogs..
But I found a site worth sharing so what the hell. (before the flame war begins…)
Check out Mooza.com - MP3 Music & Video Downloads
This Mooza.com Music site seriously Rocks! It allows to search and play all your favorite MP3 Music (i.e. Rihanna, Eminem, Akon, etc), create Myspace / FaceBook Music Playlists, Share Songs with Friends, and more for Free.
There isn’t any advertisement or popup crap, and the site doesn’t require registration. Unfortunately, its not my site - but because the site doesnt have any advertisement, I thought I’d pimp them myself.
Anyway, check it out for yourself cause it’s definately a site that you want in your FAVORITES.
Seriously people - since the invention of the internent, I haven’t purchased a single CD. Anyway check it out for yourself, and then after that you can flame me for the recommendation.
–> Come to think about it…The only CD’s I have purchased we’re BLANK ONES… hahaha!

Fashion refers to styles of suits - ENTER HERE that are popular in a culture at any given time. Such styles may change quickly, and “fashion” in the more colloquial sense refers to the latest version of these styles. Inherent in the term is the idea that the mode will change more quickly than the culture as a whole.
July 12th, 2008 02:39
Let me introduce You my new collection of suits. I worked on them for many years, and now I’m proud to present

In other words, “fashion” in the more colloquial sense refers to the latest version of these styles.

Oh what I wouldn t give to have been a fly on the wall during this luncheon. Here is Heidi Montag having lunch with Meghan McCain, who is none other than the daughter of Republican Presidential Candidate John McCain. And yes, Heidi is boring as usual with her straight blonde locks that never change. Meghan of course does not have the most inspiring hairstyle, but when your dad is running for President of the United States, fading into the background is much more requisite than standing out amongst the crowd. Heidi dressed as conservative as even she could I suppose, and styled her hair in the same boring style with the flat iron and the side part. One would think that if you are somewhat of a starlet and are going to be seen with the daughter of a Presidential candidate you might make more of an effort. However, maybe Heidi doesn t even understand the whole Presidential thing who knows! Shake it up Heidi! Her hairstyle is getting as about as boring as her storyline.

Good Day
Just wanted to share my new experience.
If your system denies to run due to an error related to missing HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other critical system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then run “attrib -H -R -S” on the C:\Boot.ini file and remove it. Launch “Bootcfg /Rebuild” and then Fixboot
Cheers,
Carl
