It must be the youtube thing - might want to check your computer
Sometimes if I haven't cleaned out my temporary folder and have a lot of junk on my computer the youtube and other sound/pictures won't match up (too much junk on the computer). I've been watching her over and over (she even has her own website). The sound and pictures match perfectly on my end. Also her voice is not far away either. I know that the camera pans in and out and shows the audience, so that may be what you're experiencing.
Not a publicity joke though. She's been singing in her choir since she was 12. Sings at the clubs and Kariokee, etc.
She has an amazing voice. Of course a couple notes were off but for someone who hasn't had professional singing lessons she is amazing. But, not a fake and your right, she is an inspiration to all.
Check state laws . . .
In my state your divorce is not finalized until you have been living apart for six months. You file the papers, and have to live separately for six months for it to even be final or legal.
Check if your state has a "Lemon Law" like ours does (nm)

truancy law -- check out your state's
Check with your state attorney general's

I'd check with your state's unemployment department.
Likely they have better information than your co-worker. ;) They probably have a website with all the information about who is eligible, how to apply, etc.
Of course, if you don't like the job, there's really no reason to fight to stay on, if you can't meet their goals and expectations. And be sure to make a note of what you just said, about the working conditions, and the fact that the people aren't friendly certainly contributes to a hostile work environment.
Meanwhile... start perusing the "companies" section of this board (and the MT Companies section of MT Chat as well) to find names of companies that people like working for, hunt down their websites, and start applying online. And keep a list of the ones you apply to, when you applied, and what happened. You'll need that information if you are approved for unemployment, to prove you are job-searching.
I did what I just talked about above, and that was how I found my new job, after nearly 28 years working for a doc who closed his practice....
Best of luck, and keep us posted!
Check with your state's Attorney General's office.

Thanks TravelinMT. Point well taken. I did check out the State Department's advisory
and they do have one, but they break it down into areas of Mexicos. Obviously, it is the border towns that are dealing with high crimes and they warn about going there. As far as the "tourist" cities such as Mazatlan, Cancun, Puerto Vallarta etc.. they ask you to use just common sense, as you have stated, not walking alone at dark, down alleys, and just caution with money etc.. I also travel to Mexico every year (love, love PV by the way) but this is the first time we've been to Cancun and everyone just freaked me out. I have always felt safe there. The people really do encourage tourism but that is how they survive in most cases. I definitely would feeling safer walking around Mexico than some places in large US cities like in Chicago etc. Crime is everywhere. You just have to protect yourself and use common sense.
How long have you noticed your hard drives lasts when you are on the computer 24/7. My computer is
doing odd things and it looked like the hard drive is getting bad. It is about 2-1/2 years old. Actually the whole computer is about 2-1/2 years old.
Precious! Many places will have state-to-state drivers form a chain

Brand New Lemon
Has anyone ever bought a brand new car that turned out to be a lemon?
I need to know what trouble I can avoid when buying used... Thanks.
Anything cherry or lemon! Bring it on!

Water with lemon, hot or cold. nm

Hand them a lemon to smell and taste and put sunlight on them
Lemon jello or ices. Lots of hot herb tea. nm
s
A product called 'Fruit Fresh' or simply lemon juice
Drizzled over the fruit that browns will keep it from browning...or at least I think anyway. Never take cooking advice someone who messes up hard boiled eggs.
Try some herb teas and seltzer with lemon or lime to drink. Veggies & hummus

Good advice was given here. Suggest vet check-up for kitty needs vet check. sm
I've had 2 females over the years who developed stones/crystals in urine or UTIs. Both of them started spraying inappropriately. Never had a female spray inappropriately other than in these instances. They go into spasm and can't help themselves. If it is a urinary problem, eventually you may see slight pink-tinged spray if it gets that far untreated due to the irritation from constantly trying to pee. One more thought is if the kitty is not sick, maybe the other cat won't let her use the litter box for some reason. Maybe set up another box for her.

Looks like someone's kid is on their computer.

My computer also
I am going to be buying a new one and have this one as back up and give my old back up away. But mine is 6 years now. But it is starting to grind and make noises. My neighbor that works on it says it is still okay but I think it is time to get a new one. He wants me to get an HP that has nothing on it and he will download Windows 2003 and take off the Vista. Will also help me transfer everything over. Needless to say, I have started backing up more lately. I am on my computer between work and play 12 to 15 hours a day and so to me it has paid for itself over these six years.
RE: Any computer pros out there? SM
Would like to see what sites my nephew has been in but he is smart enough to delete the history. Is there another way to check and then delete off the computer? Thanks.
Yep, messed my computer up big
time and other programs too. I also got a virus on my computer and my virus protection wasn't resolving the issue. Once I took of IE7 and re-installed IE6, no more problems, virus gone. My other programs work great too now. I don't recommend it at all.
I use my own computer and have a genuine
version of windows and still had a bunch of problems with it.
Something else needs to break on your computer.
Bake him another pie! :)
why were you on his *personal* computer anyway? sm
It sounds like you already have a trust issue with this person. Since he is still your BF and not your DH, I feel you had no right to invade his privacy. Maybe he had viewed those things a long time ago, prior to you being his GF. Besides that, I learned a long time ago not to go looking for things, because inevitably, you will find it. You snooped, now you are hurt, and have a very different view of this person. Your relationship is probably doomed now, because you will not be able to get past this. I am sorry for both of you.
Kitty and the Computer
 My kitty likes to lay at my feet on my pedals. The long hair gets inside and causes them not to work properly. I am on my third pedal in 2+ years. You have to love being able to work from the comfort of your home though . . . with your cat by your side. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Just wish I could fall into a better work-at-home job.
My 2yo son is a computer whiz and...
my 6yo daughter is a budding artist!
Okay,I know these things aren't about myself but I am sooo proud of both my kids!
My son will "work" on his computer next to me (real computer). He navigates in and out of the web icons we have set up for him and loads his own CD roms and plays them! I only have to show him a few times how to do something and then he will master it.
Must take after his dad, the computer geek!
Most are compatible with any computer
It's a good idea to buy it from a store that has knowledgable computer salespeople, like Best Buy or CompUSA, or from a local computer store that you have worked with before.
When I replaced my hard drive a couple of years ago, the smallest one I could find was 80 gig. It really wasn't all that expensive, though.
I just hopped over to the CompUSA website. They are out of 40 gig hard drives but have a 120 gig for $49.99. I am putting a link below - hope it works.
Best way to ship a computer? sm
My daugther is moving to Spain and she needs to ship her computer tower over there. Does anyone know the best way? Quotes from FedEx and UPS were over $400! And I have seen how they throw those packages around so need to know if there is another way.
Thanks
Computer shorthand for D sm
D could also be used for DIL - daughter-in-law, IMHO is in my humble opinion, there are lots of shortcuts and a list should be available for you, don't have time to search now, but perhaps someone can give you a quick link, saves time. Kind of works like "TTFN" - Tiger's version of tata for now. LOL (laughing out loud), ROLF, rolling on the floor laughing.
I need to buy a new computer. Any ideas??
I need a new computer, and I do not know which brand is the best. I am going to wait until the after-holiday sales. I would love to get a mini-tower. This way my computer will be more portable. I do not want to work on a laptop, I tried it and did not like it. The company I work for will only program 1 computer with their software, so I want something portable. So far, I have tried Sony (Vaio laptop) and was not impressed. These are considered "disposable." I have had HP, which have been good computers with no problems. I recently obtained a Dell, which is okay, but everything you buy for it has to be from Dell and I do not like that. I would love to have an Apple, but have to run Windows XP. I know there is a way to do this, but I do not want to have to buy a lot of extras and I am pretty good with computers, but not an expert. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I tried to reasearch online and have come up with a lot of advertisers or I would have to suscribe to see the results. Thanks!!!! 
I download to my computer..sm
and print from that, if I want to. You would need a UBS cable to attach to the camera and your computer, as well as some sort of software to post the pictures to. However, I also have a printer with memory card slots. If you use the memory card inside your camera, and your printer has a slot that it fits into, you can print right from the memory card. I have never done this, though. good luck. and YES, the books ARE confusing.
My computer is more than 5 years old - sm
I used to work 60 hours a week and have now cut down to less than 25. Mine is still humming away. Let me add that hubby is the computer king and takes care of any little issues I have. He says mine is still fine. I highly recommend Dell if you are replacing. This is my second Dell. Love them!
not computer savvy
How do you check the history on your computer? How do you know if there is a separate e-mail account? Thanks!
Slow computer
All of a sudden my computer is running as slow as mollasses. I used to know what to do but forgot. Even when I'm typing it halts and takes about 30-40 seconds to continue. Please help!

They are hiding behind a computer
They know if they said it to the OPs face, it would be punched.
I see it on all message boards that I go to. Sometimes the OP is in the wrong but I do think there is a nicer, gentler way to put it.
NOTE: I am not referring to the one below, I have not read it. I am just talking about MB posters in general.
computer addiction
see below.
I'm not working - so why am I at my computer?
Today is the first day off I've had in about 2 weeks or more. Sometimes it feels like I haven't had a day off since the 5th grade. Weather is getting cold here in Oregon so bringing our plants inside (we're expecting a freeze tonight). I should be cleaning, quilting, and doing a ton of other things, so now that I've read this board I ask myself - why am I using my off time to type? HA HA HA - Okay I'm off to clean.
Only take a cellphone and computer away?
She would be sitting in a room without anything, no television, no books, no activities of any kind, nothing except 4 walls. She probably has been "mouthy" for sometime and it seems like she has gotten by with it. Sorta late in the game to rein in now cause at 18 she basically can be on her own. I would cut off any funding to vehicles, phones, etc., etc. if she completely go against your wishes. You have a child out of control but this has not just happened, right?
You are correct..it was my computer...Thanks! (NM)

I love the dressing and I love lemon pie..sm
My mom's lemon pie that is. I also love this dessert called Texas Delight or some people call it different things but is is layers of chocolate pudding and cream cheese and whipped cream. The food is my favorite part besides the watching my son open presents on x-mas.
go to start, my computer, C-drive
cookies to start - and if you can find a history click on there - but if he is tech saavy - he will have already deleted all that via tools, internet options, and from there you can delete files and cookies and history - that's another way to see.....tools (top of browser), internet options, then settings and then VIEW FILES.......but if he deleted them - you won't find them, unfortunately
question for you computer experts
Is it possible to send a song via email? I have a bunch of songs downloaded on my Windows Media. I don't know how to transfer them into email or even if it's possible. 
Go to my computer, highlight the drive sm
and make it run. If it is a DVD, then you need to have a DVD drive. If a CD, then you should be able to make it play if you only have a CD drive.
my computer updated just fine--sm
with the downloaded windows update, but my smartset alarm clock did not. This is the SmartSet I am referring to, not my computer. thanks though.
