Help with USB? Anyone?
So my Lexar USB was working just fine, then somehow it wouldn’t open up on My Computer anymore. I don’t know why though. It told me to make an association in the Folder Options in Control Panel. Except I didn’t know how. I went to Control Panel —> Appearance and Themes —–> Folder Option —-> File Types then I got lost. I pressed new and it asked for the File Extension and I don’t know how to find that either. When I open files on Microsoft Word or save files on to the USB it works but the only problem is that it won’t open in My Computer. How can I fix this problem?
Perhaps your USB is corrupt. You need to set it to open with explorer. Try formatting the USB.
What does my dream I had just now mean…?
I just woke up from a dream:
It started at some sort of huge hallway-ed house. There was many houses within the hallways sorta.
But it felt as if it was just another day in life, with no start. It was very vivid. All I can remember is I went next door (which was like going next door in an apartment, but school sized.) and it looked kind of like a class. I walked over to my friend Julia at her desk. We talked, and after that we went back to the room where I was. There was a pool. Maybe hotel-sized. But then Julia left, and this one guy I like (but she also sat next to him one school year and nearly hated him…) came in and started swimming. And there was another guy. But I didn’t know him. And my dad. I got in the pool and was swimming, but then, the guy I didn’t know said something like,"Brad’s (thats the guy I like…) favorite colors are red, green, and blue. Julia’s is blue, red, and green. They so like each other." I felt a slight bit of jealousy, by the way. Then, this stringy-haired man with a thin face, very tall, walked it. He talked to the guy who was "supposedly" in charge. Then, the tall guy was mad. They had a bet, and the guy in charge backed out or something. I walked up, and heard something, but then I was told I was going to be killed. Then I ran to this one hallway (it felt like a movie, because I felt like it faded out then in and stuff. Plus angled views.) And entered. There was a room, and it had large paths/hallways that were rainbow against black. It also had black spots, but it doesn’t sound like what I saw it as. Anyway, it started with this other skinny girl entering, and the moment she set foot on it, her body transformed into a small black cat, and she started running on it. I could also tell her thoughts, and she said something like "Here goes nothing…" And this music that was on the TV fell PERFECTLY in, as if it was set to!
Then, I started on the path, and I was a wolf (Here was primarily where the movie views came it.) and I ran along like a wolf in snow. And although it didn’t seem like it, or looked like it, I stopped at some room. It had a set of three buttons, and what looked like, cords running to each of them, and one off of the board. It had one large set on top (like THEME or something. but it was weird, random, non-related words) and the other two were smaller, but not tiny. It was about the size of… maybe half of the bigger one. I pressed the button and got it right and moved on. Note the song is still playing. And it does that for what I "knew" was about 30 more, but what I did in the dream was about… five. When I got done going through the doors, I came to that hallway where my friends class was and my pool room thing. There was the tall man with the stringy hair. He looked like a movie villian. And somehow, I knew this was how he was going to try to kill me. He flung poison darts at me, and I kept avoiding them, as if I was totally skinnier than I really was. Twice they caught my shoulder, and I felt pain. I felt it. It didn’t "count" though. So he did that a little more, I kept avoiding them, and then I woke up, The song was just going off.
And it maybe took a second for me to realize, but all my stress felt like it had just dropped on me, as if it was just all sinking back in. I was lying there, and I still felt light and slender like the person in my dream.
What does all this mean? It seemed oddly familiar, like I had seen it or it had happened before.
I know what a dream is :/
Gosh. O_o
I’m going to have to go with my gut and say that your dream doesn’t have a real interpretation, it’s for the most part physiological. People often have these sort of "wild" dreams when they are sleep deprived, not taking vitamins, or under too much stress.

Durban Review Conference, 20-24 April 2009, Geneva, Press Release
High Commissioner Makes Concrete Proposals to Combat Racism.
23 February 2009
Ahead of major anti-racism conference, High Commissioner urges unity and combined efforts, proposes technical solutions to combat discrimination.
GENEVA – Calling on governments to transcend political differences and work together to eliminate racism and xenophobia, UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay has issued a series of proposals and recommendations in preparation for a major anti-racism conference, to be held in Geneva in April. The High Commissioner’s report, issued today, has been sent to UN Member States, currently planning the April 20-24 Durban Review Conference to assess implementation of the wide-ranging Programme of Action agreed at the 2001 World Conference against Racism, held in Durban, South Africa.
Although government representatives preparing for the Review Conference have so far made all their decisions by consensus, some of the language proposed for a draft conference outcome document has been controversial because of its criticism of Israel’s policies in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
The High Commissioner, who is Secretary-General of the Review Conference, appealed to governments not to allow any single issue to dominate discussions of such vital importance to human dignity to the exclusion and detriment of others. “I appeal to all to uphold the consensually agreed objectives of the Durban Review Conference, and to bear in mind their importance to the millions of victims around the world,” she said, adding, “I urge Member States to transcend their differences and to join efforts to confront racism and xenophobia.”
Addressing another controversial topic, Pillay proposed holding a series of expert workshops in order to help governments find common ground on the issue of defamation of religions. Several Islamic states have proposed language that would limit what they describe as defamation of religions, which Western states have expressed difficulty in accepting because of the potential negative impact on freedom of expression.
“In order to find common ground, we need to work together in good faith, with open minds and constructive thinking,” noted Pillay in her report. “To this end, while I understand the concerns behind the concept of defamation of religions, I believe that from a human rights perspective and in light of the Durban Review Conference, it should be addressed as an issue of incitement to religious hatred within the existing framework of international human rights law.” The workshops she proposed would be designed to foster better understanding of the legislative patterns and judicial prac
The workshops she proposed would be designed to foster better understanding of the legislative patterns and judicial practices in different regions of the world, reflecting different legal systems and traditions.
… She said that terrorism and some counter-terrorism measures had also impeded progress in combating racism. Just days after the conclusion of the 2001 World Conference against Racism, the terror attacks of 11 September 2001, followed by others around the world dramatically changed the climate surrounding the implementation of the DDPA. …

I agree that Israel is a very racist state which commits mass murder and that America aids and abets this murder. My country, Australia, is also guilty of being a friend of Israel for which I feel deeply ashamed. The German Nazis were much worse though.
I need help with an Etsy Name?
I’m trying to open an Etsy site, which is for crafters to sell thier products. I have a wide range of crafts to put up. My newest is jewelry made from wine bottles and a whole wine country theme. I’ve begun selling products a local winery so I’d like to put some on the website too.
In addition to the jewelry, I do highly detailed dog portraits. I’d like to put those up too on etsy. In the past I’ve also done watercolors, pressed flowers, book illustrator, cake decorator and whatever I come up with. So it ranges pretty widley.
Since it ranges, I don’t want to have jewelry or wine in the name. I was thinking something Like Hannah’sHobbies, since my name is Hannah. But I would like to be taken seriously and I feel that the word hobby isn’t serious enough. I’m also thinking of HannahHof******Designs. I kind of like the alliteration in my first and last name, but I’m affraid that it might be a long name. I was also thinking of something compleatly out there. My favorite flower is columbine, and I was thinking of naming it curious columbine, or colorful columbine, or columbine crafts…..but do people know that columbine is a flower and won’t associate it with the school shooting? The other thought is something about Thimbleweed. Unfortuantly "thimbleweed" is taken, but maybe something like spring thimbleweed, not sure wher to go with that….I could really use some help here!
So recap of the options:
Hannah’sHobbies
HannahHof*****Designs
curious columbine
colorful columbine
columbine crafts
Spring Thimbleweed
Creeping Bittersweet
Curling tendril (grape vine related)
THANKS!
I think a lot of people will associate columbine with the school shooting. I actually didn’t realize that it’s a flower until I read your question. And if you do an online search, the top listings are all related to the school.
You could use the scientific classification genus name for columbine instead, which is Aguilegia. So maybe a name like "Aguilegia Arts & Crafts"? Some people might perceive this as a little geeky, but on the other hand a lot of people might not have any idea what the word Aguilegia means.
Of the options you listed, I like HannahHof*****Designs best. A few other options along similiar lines that you might consider –
HHDesigns
Double H Designs
C & T Designs (the C standing for "columbine" and the T for "thimbleweed")
Best of luck!

I’d say it’s a custom theme. Either he designed it himself or payed someone to do it. Wouldn’t be easy to replicate. You could try sending him a message and asking how you could get a similar theme…
I want to make a static HTML blog so I can re-design each entry. How do I allow comments similar to wordpress?
I want to make a static HTML blog so I can re-design each entry… however, I would like to allow comments in a similar fashion to Wordpress (where a user simply enters a name, email, and comment) and maybe even link to their Gravatar account. I don’t need any other function from a CMS or blogging software… just need the ability for comments to be left behind. What’s the simplest, yet still flexible-in-design, way to do this?

I want to get my haircut like this:
