WannaBe: In case I forgot, congrats to them Lady Bruins. =)) U. Mich (69-63) won, but the last spread I saw was -6.5, so if you took UConn w/ spread, you got very lucky, if you bet on them U. Mich, I feel bad; the O/U was 148.5

WannaBe: <CIO> LOL. I remember those mems... <chancho> North by Norwest, totally agree, the audiences know that the plane scene was filmed earlier and played on a screen behind. It was still drama. Same thing with the Mt. Rushmore chase scene.

WannaBe: Future research project, how did Offenbach - Orpheus in the Underworld became "Can Can" and women kicking legs before the Radio City Hall Rocketts. An history that probably need some "Lookin Into"

WannaBe: ¡Olé! ¡Olé! this is what I see for "¡Olé! ¡Olé!" (game of the day Mar-13-2026) I also know this issue have been around for a while, and it's not that important, in IT term, it is a level 'C', cosmetic fix. But I just wish to report it again. Can CG.com unify this ...

WannaBe: <FSR> March 11 is his birthday, and usually PoD is chosen from the birth date of the player. So unless CG.com decides to change the algorithm on how PoD is decided. We will randomly get "undesired" player(s).

Oct-31-07  chessmoron: That's not <WannaBe>, it's the educational nudie mag, Playboy.
Oct-31-07  whiteshark: <chessmoron>, I really tried hard for several hours. Pure and remarkable coincidence, that is!

  WannaBe: Thanks guys... I can't fault anyone except my own stupidity... Just when you know/thought you can anticipate all events...

Maybe that's why my chess game ends up the same way! =)

  WannaBe: So, I was dinky-ing around on youtube again... Doing more research on oldies. And I wanted to look up 'Angel of the Morning' by Merrilee Rush, didn't come across <NUN'ING>, but got a few hits on Juice Newton and her version.

Oh well, another failure, what else is new... then I saw this version by Nina Simone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9TMt... It's her voice, just the lyrics are on the screen.

I said to me li'l self, wow, who is she?! Gotta look it up!! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nina_s...

  WannaBe: There are song(s) that should just be left 'alone' and never be touched, never, ever, again...

Nov-01-07  brankat: <WannaBe> The entire country is thoroughly corrupted. So why worry about a few files :-)

  WannaBe: "I am frustrated and angry. I believe that I am absolutely 100 percent innocent." She believe? You mean she <DON'T KNOW> ??

Maybe it's just a case of bad English.

  cu8sfan: <WannaBe: What a bloody freaking day, should have just stayed in bed...> Cool, is this the forum for venting anger with computers? Three years ago I bought a Mac to get rid of all the Windows trouble. Last weekend I installed Leopard. After ten reboots, twenty screen freezes, something similar to a blue screen and an airport card that was not recognized anymore I was more than willing to trade back. Now I read that the firewall is rubbish and the first MacTrojans (or iTroys) are about...

  WannaBe: Early commentary on 'Troublesome Young Men', N. Chamberlain was an idiot... Before reading this book, I just thought he was naive/stupid.

Good read, great book, about 60% of my way through, probably be done with it sometimes next week, then it will go on the my shelve next to my other WWII related books.

  WannaBe: <hitman84> Okay, what version of JRE? And what is the problem??

Did you get the download from sun? http://java.sun.com/javase/download...

And is the packaged file a .bin?

Nov-02-07  hitman84: Man this whole thing sucks. I've installed it and even created a symbolic link but still isn't working.

Here's the file jre-6u3-linux-i586-rpm.bin

Do I need to d'load JDK as well ?

Nov-02-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <hitman84> No, you <SHOULD NOT> need the JDK, all you need is the JRE (for example, to look at the and move the pieces here at CG.com, all you need is the JRE).

What/how are you trying/testing to see if it worked? In this link http://java.sun.com/javase/download... there are install/download documentations. See if they help any.

Nov-02-07  hitman84: Ok I d'loaded this file..
jre-1_5_0_13-linux-i586-rpm.bin

What is the installation procedure ?

Nov-02-07  hitman84: Ok one last try :)
Nov-02-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <hitman84> http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/jre/...

*Usually* on a .bin file, you can just execute it, double click then select 'RUN'. Be sure you have the correct user priviledges.

Nov-02-07  hitman84: A newer version of JRE is already installed and that thing doesn't work :(
Nov-02-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <hitman84> What are you trying that isn't working? And here's the notes on installation for Linux: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/inst...
Nov-02-07  hitman84: Yes I changed the permissions. I didn't use the chmod. Just right click on the file and enable execute. Then I compiled the binary file after which you get an RPM. The RPM didn't install as I already have a newer version installed.
Nov-02-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  WannaBe: <hitman84> Maybe we should back track to your original problem, what was not working? Viewing the games here? or something else?
Nov-02-07  hitman84: <WannaBe>Java and javascript are enabled in my browser settings. I get that usual green symbol in place of the java applet when I open a web page.
