I transposed the notes to the marking, and messed with the key until I got the right one.<br /><br />Now some people are commenting that isnt a real instrument.<br /><br />Do you agree?<br /><br />(BTW I put it in airplane mode so it doesnt get a call/text while playing).]]>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Topic Replies: 1</description>

			<title>Advice for handling a troublesome network user</title>
			<description><![CDATA[I work as Technology Coordinator for a small rural K-12 school district in Montana (305 students, a couple dozen teachers/faculty).  One of my network users is the businesstechnology teacher.  She teaches stuff like career building, keyboarding, photo and video editing, web design, and even a &quot;cisco&quot; class (I use that term very very loosely).  Her classroom has 16 windows XP machines plus her laptop, a smartboard, and a network printer.  Her classroom is also where I have some of the most unusual and unexplainable problems.  One example is printing, she claims that only 2 computers can print and the rest of them cannot.  When I sat down at one of the computers that was supposedly not printing it worked fine, and I showed her that but she still claims it isnt working.  Almost all of my problems in there is where something doesnt work for her or the students but it does for me, and when I show her she adamantly claims it isnt working and refuses to explain the problem in more detail.  When I try to tell her that I have no explanation why something isnt working for her but it is for me, she gets very loud and says Im always making her feel stupid and that she knows when something isnt working &quot;because she has a masters degree in computer science&quot;.  She got very loud one time while students were in the room, which was very unprofessional. <br /><br />On all my computers that students have access to I have a program called Deep Freeze which essentially prevents permanent changes to the hard drive.  Its really handy because someone could drop a virus on it and all I have to do is reboot and it is like it never happened.   This teacher is demanding the ability to unlock the computers and have administrator privileges to fix it herself.  I told her it is generally considered bad practice to give network users admin access and is almost never done, and she said she can handle her computer lab better than I am apparently capable of doing, which I found very offensive.  For the last several months I have been keeping a log of everything I do in there and all our conversations, so things like that are on record and the principal and superintendent are aware of the situation.<br /><br />So my idea is this:  I will give her full administrative access to her computers and her file server located on my rack, 100% control to her.  But on one condition;  I will no longer have any obligation or responsibility to the equipment in that room.  She will be entirely responsible for maintenance and upkeep of equipment, performing updates and upgrades, and buying and installing hardware and software.  The only involvement I will have is internet access through my content filter, which I am required to do my federal law.  So basically, whatever breaks is up to her to fix, and if there is something she does not know how to do then she can do what I would have to do and research the problem or error message or whatever and troubleshoot it like any other problem.<br /><br />So do any other network managers here think this is a good idea?  I think if I do it and write up an official statement about it and make sure that me and her and the principal and superintendent are all on the same page with it, it wont last long.  I think she would be in over her head and want me to take back control.  The argument we were having today was about that printer,  she said that she looked and all the computers have either PS or PCL drivers, but the printer is a 4600n.  I couldnt get it through her thick head the 4600n is the model number of the printer, and that PS and PCL means post script and printer command language.  She was very offended when I was trying to tell her what PS and PCL meant.  So my idea is that Ill give her exactly what she wants (admin privileges) and let her dig her own grave with it.<br /><br />Is this a good idea, or should I go about it differently?]]>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Topic Replies: 5</description>

			<title>Do you read &quot;stickies&quot; and &quot;annoucements&quot; ?</title>
			<description><![CDATA[I just caught myself skipping right over the &quot;important&quot; threads on a new forum, and I realized I always do it on new forums these days. Over the years Ive noticed that some forums moderators have a habit of using the area &quot;stickies&quot; and &quot;announcements&quot; are found in for stuff I really couldnt care less about.<br /><br />I think part of me is so used to seeing the same stickies and announcements on other forums, that Im subconsciously skipping them as if Id already read them before, even though I havent even read the title. Most forums use the same general layout.<br /><br />Anyone else just skip these sorts of threads ?]]>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Topic Replies: 8</description>

			<title>Water Found on our Moon (Luna)</title>
			<description><![CDATA[Remember that experiment a little while back where they ran something into the moon at high velocity (known as the LCROSS impact)? Well that experiment turned out to be a huge success and we have found a significant amount of water on the moon! One of the reasons we were headed to Mars was because of the water we believe is there which might indicate life has the potential to be there.<br /><br />Now with water being on our own moon, I wouldnt be suprised if a mission gets planned to go there much quicker. The moon would be a much easier task than Mars, its right in our own back yard.<br /><br />Exciting news!<br /><br /><!-- m --><span class="postlink">http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/space/11/1 ... index.html</span><!-- m --><br /><br /><p>QUOTE:</p><blockquote style="border:1px solid #000000; background-color:#eeeeee;">NASA said Friday it had discovered water on the moon, opening &quot;a new chapter&quot; that could allow for the development of a lunar space station.<br /><br />The discovery is based on preliminary data collected when the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite, or LCROSS, intentionally crashed October 9 into the permanently shadowed region of Cabeus crater near the moons south pole.</blockquote><br /><br />Also for much more detail see this:<br /><br /><!-- m --><span class="postlink">http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LCROS ... sults.html</span><!-- m --><br /><br /><p>QUOTE:</p><blockquote style="border:1px solid #000000; background-color:#eeeeee;">The argument that the moon is a dry, desolate place no longer holds water.</blockquote>]]>&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Topic Replies: 21</description>
