Flash CS3 and Photoshop CS3 running in Wine[->] 2008-03-15 08:46 twickline
twickline writes "It looks as if Wine might be supporting Adobe's Flash CS3 as well as Photoshop CS3 on Linux in the near future. With the recent help from Google to get Photoshop CS and CS2 working properly in Wine a huge chunk of the underlying architecture work was put in place for CS3 application support. There are still a number of bugs that need to be triangled and fixed before CS3 is properly supported but this is great news none the less.
Photoshop CS3 in Wine
Louis Lenders posted on bug 8945 that he has got Photoshop CS3 running in Wine, here is his post... with screenshots!"

Lunch with your preferred Presidential candidates for a high price?
ONE SEAT LEFT
I have arranged a private one-hour luncheon with Ron Paul on 11/28 in St.
Pete when he will be in town for the CNN/YouTube Republican debate.
This luncheon is reserved for $1000+ donors to Ron Paul's presidential
campaign. 19 people so far have paid and confirmed and will have the honor
and pleasure of having lunch and communicating with Ron Paul directly.

Go the the HELP committee website. The link is here.

Here you will see the names of the Committee members on the left hand

(this will take just a bit of leg work on your part by putting their =

I downloaded myself a copy and started looking through them. I found an interesting one on pages 47-48.

Karin Pouw of OSA of CofS writes a message.
It's forwarded by Michael Genung. He's the guy who runs ACSR, Association for Citizens Sociel Reform. http://www.citizensforsocialreform.org/ ["CSR Background and Philosopy: CSR was founded in 2001 by a group of Scientologists and other like-minded individuals concerned with the escalating social ills in society. CSR's purpose is to work with in the field of public policy to bring about more effective and humane solutions to these social ills of illiteracy, criminality substance abuse and general decay of character."]
Then it's forwarded by Doyle Mills, of LEAF fame (Letters to the Editor Attack Force).
Then it's forwarded by Mary C. (possibly one of two Mary C's I'm thinking of, but unsure).
Then it's forwarded by Mike Kaplan, another person who runs an email list and forwards CCHR type stuff to CofS members.
If that ain't stringing a line from the CofS to CCHR and the CofS front group ("grassroots") movements, then I don't know what is!

Netflix, Best Buy throw logs on HD DVD pyre[->] 2008-02-11 17:37 Lucas123
Lucas123 writes "This morning, online video rental service Netflix announced it would only buy Blu-ray DVD discs from here on out and would phase out HD DVD selections by the end of this year. Then, this afternoon, the country's largest consumer chain, Best Buy, came out and said it would recommend its customers only buy Blu-ray from here on out throwing its support behind next-generation DVD format. Both announcements follow a decision by Warner Bros. last month to only produce movies using the Blu-ray Disc format. Best Buy said it believes consumers will benefit from the choice of one high definition DVD DVD format, adding that "we believe that Blu-ray is fast emerging as that single format," said Brian Dunn, Best Buy's president and chief operating officer."

At CES, SSD drives were a plenty on the show floor and CoolTechZone.com, as always, has the insider information on them and their future. "Some companies said we could see 250GB SSD units by the end of this year, while others predicted it could take up to a couple of years for them to become mainstream. None of the companies promised mainstream adoption, but they promised a bright future and we are inclined to believe them. High capacity drives are going to be expensive due to their very nature of early technology and gradual adoption rate.
