I got an error when I run any of the Adobe Design Premium CS3 products saying "licensing for this product has stopped working" and then it closes.

I have been waiting to buy a house in Southern California for 7 years. Every year I save money for a down payment and every year prices go sky high.

I was recommended to watching What the Bleep!?: Down the Rabbit Hole by someone close to me because they know I like science. They said the movie was about quantum mechanics. I know quantum mechanics is a very difficult subject and thought the movie would have new research into the topic. I expected this documentary to be an in-depth view of quantum mechanics and how it relates to everyday life.

Why something needs to be done

I am not in favor of regulating every problem the country has, but the healthcare issue has not been resolved and needs serious attention. The lack of competition, no cost control, citizens without coverage, and other factors have brought us to a bad state of health.

Most people are out of the loop on pricing because their job buys health insurance. Doctor offices do not want to provide rates for treatment prior to being seen. This lack of information on pricing keeps people in the dark and costs out of control.

Does it make you think the owner is a moron, stupid or brainless?

A truck is for hauling stuff. What is the purpose of jacking up a truck?

I hope so.

this is the 2nd Edition of Loose Change.

The PUC commissioners recently gave their duty of approving fee increases to the companies they are suppose to oversee. Now telecommunications companies can raise their fees anytime they want.

I have Cox Communication for telephone service, which is the only option for our area.
Cox, of course, did not wait a minute and took immediate advantage and raised their non-publish number rate from .28 to 1.25. There is no cost related to not having a number not published; maybe a savings for not having to print the number in a directory.

I have been using Filemaker since version 2. By version 4, I started doing more advanced things and found Filemaker to be a pain. I searched for a replacement. 4D v6 was a possibility, so I purchased a copy and started working with it.

4D did all the things that Filemaker could not. It was difficult to understand how 4D worked at first because Filemaker does not function like all other databases. No other database has calculation fields or global fields. I decided not to go with 4D after they raised their prices and continued working with Filemaker.
