RE: Form design
Euricho, On the form KeyPreview=.T. In the Keypress event of the Form then disregard any unwanted keystrokes. The only problem here is that you will have to disable your own top level menu commands or they will still fire. I suggest a global object oGlobal_Object with a lIgnore_Keys property which you set to be .T. when the container gets focus. In the skip for of your menu's set the skipfor to be oGlobal_Object.lIgnore_Keys That should do it. Unfortunately that won't trap Windows keys but you didn't specify that. If you need this then you'll have to use the wondows API. See news2news.com for details or failing that I could dig out something from my archives later today.

RE: Form design
Eurico, Change the cursor _Screen.Mousepointer when the mouse enters/leaves the Object. If you set it to busy (11) when Exiting (Mouseleave) then you can check it in the controls outside the container via the when event. To disable (i.e return _Screen.Mousepointer=0) to disable access to the control and effectively removing it from use. I would suggest doing this in a Bindevent() loop within the form Init() as opposed to coding the when event in each control.

Re: [NF] Electric Car redux
Never mind, I found the cost, which would runs around $100,000 each after adding a few options, sales tax and registration fees. It appears that to buy a Telsa requires a $50,000.00 premium or $30,000.00 patient buyer down payment, so the car will not be generally available on Dearler lots, at least at first. If I put down $50,000.00 today for the premium treatment, I wouldn't receive my car until Jun of 2008 at the earliest. The Telsa isn't exactly a family car from looking at the pictures, so I think I will hid and watch to see how the Telsa does. If the Telso ever hit critical mass, where the investment in plant, equipment, and distribution through dealers ever occur, I would be more interested. This would require mass production of the Telsa, which should also reduce cost of the Telsa and add some additional models for the consumer. http://www.teslamotors.com/index.php?js_enabled=1 http://www.teslamotors.com/customer_care/contact_us.php?section=reservesbl=1 Regards, LelandJ Leland F.

Re: [OT] Electric Car redux
I'm still driving my 2005 VW Jetta TDI wagon with which I am very pleased. I haven't had a single problem with her. She is always ready when I have to go anywhere. I don't do a lot of driving, so I only have around 7,000 miles on my Jetta wagon. It really takes around 60,000 miles before the Jetta diesel engine is fully broken in, so I have a long ways to go. It's not unusual for small diesel autos to get over 1 million miles with the original engine that came with the car, so my guess is I will wear out long before my VW Jetta TDI wagon does. My current plan are to run the wagon until the warranty expires, and then take her to Dallas for a mod that would take her up to 133 hp and 215 to 230 torque. I can't stopping thinking about the new 2008 Sportswagon, though. I would damn near be willing to sell a kidney to have one as my second car, or I could trade in my 2005 Jetta for the new model.

RE: [NF][PHP]Debugging in PHP
Ken, http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/os-debug/ There are many PHP debugging techniques that can save you countless hours when coding. An effective but basic debugging technique is to simply turn on error reporting. Another slightly more advanced technique involves using print statements, which can help pinpoint more elusive bugs by displaying what is actually going onto the screen. PHPeclipse is an Eclipse plug-in that can highlight common syntax errors and can be used in conjunction with a debugger to set breakpoints. Requires an add-in, but that may be free.

Re: [NF][PHP]Debugging in PHP
Stepping through code in Komodo seems to work in perl pretty well. The below excerpt is from Komodo help: #- Instead of running to the end of a program or to the next breakpoint, the debugger can also step through code one statement at a time. The following Debug menu items and toolbar buttons control stepping behavior: * *Step In*: Executes the current statement and pauses at the following statement. * *Step Over*: Executes the current statement. If the line of code calls a function or method, the function or method is executed in the background and the debugger pauses at the statement that follows the original one. * *Step Out*: When the debugger is within a function or method, *Step Out* will execute the code without stepping through the code line by line. The debugger will stop on the line of code following the function or method call in the calling program. When stepping through a program which calls a function or method from an external program (e.g. a module or package) the debugger steps into the external program at the point where the function or method is called, opening it in a new tab. Stepping continues in the external program until the function call is completed. *Note*: Perl operators |sort|, |map|, and |grep| behave like other looping constructs with respect to stepping behavior in the debugger. When Komodo has stopped at one of these operators, *Step Over* stops at the first statement or expression used within the first argument of these operators. For example, if the debugger steps over a statement containing a |foreach|, |while|, |map|, |grep|, or |sort| looping construct that evaluates its body five times, the debugger remains inside that loop for five iterations. When it steps over on the sixth iteration, the debugger exits the loop and stops at the next statement. To skip execution of such looping constructs, set a breakpoint on the statement following the construct, and continue until Komodo reaches that breakpoint. #-- Active State has also developed a way to easily distribute applications (eg The Perl Development Kit or PDK for short). Here is more on the PDK: http://www.activestate.com/products/perl_dev_kit/feature_list.plex I haven't tried the PDK yet, because it may require that I switch my development for regular perl to Active State's release of perl, which isn't too bad, since Active State's release of perl is free and runs on all the different platforms. Anyway, the PDK look interesting to me as It would appear to allow me to distribute my apps, including aLL necessary modules, in one bundle that would run on the clients computer whether they had perl installed or not.

I have tried Komodo, which uses the DBG engine, I think. It *looks* like it is going to be similar, but breakpoints are unreliable, and a single step takes you off through a black hole, ending up in random spots 3 processes later. I have tried to set up XDebug, but didn't succeed. If I am going to work through the labyrinthine installation process, I would like to have some idea that is is going to work. For the moment, I am doing it in W2K, but would happily do it on my Mac or Linux machine if that would be easier. Now pardon me a while so I can go bang my head on my concrete wall. That is far less painful.

[NF] Getting jump started - techniques...
...and in the time it took me to tab from the Subject line to the message body, I forgot what I was going to say. Ever have one of those days? What I _really_ wanted to ask was how you got started. You've been working on a project for a while, and then you put it aside for a while (you can define 'while' to be anywhere from 10 minutes to a week, or more). Now it's time to pick it back up again. And all that info that was swirling around in your head - the mental map of what you were working on - is gone. You have to reacquire it. Alan Schwartz said that the key to successful RAD is to keep the iteration time shorter than your attention span. I guess that's why I keep buying faster and faster computers, even though I'm still using the same tools I was five years ago. And DeMarco said that the single most critical aspect of software development is long blocks of uninterrupted time. He suggested that it takes 20 minutes to become one with the ball again after an interruption. I have five kids, a wife, and a really annoying neighbor. I haven't seen 20 uninterrupted minutes since I was 36. So looking at the rest of my year, I'm faced with the reality that I won't be seeing those 'long blocks of uninterrupted time' until everyone else in my family dies or graduates from college. The neighbor, well, I found she hates Black Sabbath. One takes the little wins when one can. Thus, I've decided that I need to adjust my development style, in the face of Schwartz and DeMarco. I need to pick up a project I had to put aside last Thursday, and get something productive done in the next 90 minutes. I don't have a 10 hour block of time with which I can regrok the thing. A writer friend of mine says that he never stops work at the end of a chapter, or even the end of a section. He stops right in the middle of something that's flowing really well, because it's so much easier to pick it back up and quickly get in the groove. What do you guys do?

[OT] JAY LENO... HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD
JAY LENO... HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD The other day I was reading Newsweek magazine and came across some poll data I found rather hard to believe. It must be true given the source, right? The Newsweek poll alleges that 67 percent of Americans are unhappy with the direction the country is headed and 69 percent of the country is unhappy with the performance of the president. In essence 2/3s of the citizenry just ain't happy and want a change. So being the knuckle dragger I am, I started thinking, ''What we are so unhappy about?'' Is it that we have electricity and running water 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? Is our unhappiness the result of having air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter? Could it be that 95.4 percent of these unhappy folks have a job? Maybe it is the ability to walk into a grocery store at any time and see more food in moments than Darfur has seen in the last year? Maybe it is the ability to drive from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean without having to present identification papers as we move through each state? Or possibly the hundreds of clean and safe motels we would find along the way that can provide temporary shelter? I guess having thousands of restaurants with varying cuisine from around the world is just not good enough. Or could it be that when we wreck our car, emergency workers show up and provide services to help all and even send a helicopter to take you to the hospital. Perhaps you are one of the 70 percent of Americans who own a home. You may be upset with knowing that in the unfortunate case of a fire, a group of trained firefighters will appear in moments and use top notch equipment to extinguish the flames thus saving you, your family and your belongings. Or if, while at home watching one of your many flat screen TVs, a burglar or prowler intrudes , an officer equipped with a gun and a bullet-proof vest will come to defend you and your family against attack or loss. This all in the backdrop of a neighborhood free of bombs or militias raping and pillaging the residents. Neighborhoods where 90 percent of teenagers own cell phones and computers. How about the complete religious, social and political freedoms we enjoy that are the envy of everyone in the world? Maybe that is what has 67 percent of you folks unhappy. Fact is, we are the largest group of ungrateful, spoiled brats the world has ever seen. No wonder the world loves the U.S. , yet has a great disdain for its citizens. They see us for what we are. The most blessed people in the world who do nothing but complain about what we don't have , and what we hate about the country instead of thanking the good Lord we live here. I know, I know. What about the president who took us into war and has no plan to get us out? The president who has a measly 31 percent approval rating? Is this the same president who guided the nation in the dark days after 9/11? The president that cut taxes to bring an economy out of recession? Could this be the same guy who has been called every name in the book for succeeding in keeping all the spoiled ungrateful brats safe from terrorist attacks? The commander in chief of an all-volunteer army that is out there defending you and me? Did you hear how bad the President is on the news or talk show? Did this news affect you so much, make you so unhappy you couldn't take a look around for yourself and see all the good things and be glad? Think about it..are you upset at the President because he actually caused you personal pain OR is it because the Media told you he was failing to kiss your sorry ungrateful behind every day. Make no mistake about it. The troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have volunteered to serve, and in many cases may have died for your freedom. There is currently no draft in this country. They didn't have to go. ; They are able to refuse to go and end up with either a ''general'' discharge, an ''other than honorable'' discharge or, worst case scenario, a ''dishonorable'' discharge after a few days in the brig. So why then the flat-out discontentment in the minds of 69 percent of Americans? Say what you want but I blame it on the media. If it bleeds it leads and they specialize in bad news. Everybody will watch a car crash with blood and guts. How many will watch kids selling lemonade at the corner? The media knows this and media outlets are for-profit corporations. They offer what sells , and when criticized, try to defend their actions by justifying them in one way or another. Just ask why they tried to allow a murderer like O.J. Simpson to write a book about how he didn't kill his wife, but if he did he would have done it this way..Insane! Stop buying the negativism you are fed everyday by the media. Shut off the TV, burn Newsweek, and use the New York Times for the bottom of your bird cage. Then start being grateful for all we have as a country. There is exponentially more good than bad We are

-Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Whil Hentzen (Pro*) Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2007 12:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [NF] Getting jump started - techniques... A writer friend of mine says that he never stops work at the end of a chapter, or even the end of a section. He stops right in the middle of something that's flowing really well, because it's so much easier to pick it back up and quickly get in the groove. What do you guys do? Whil Whil: Great question! This is especially a concern for those that work in their own office or at home. When you have a job you have peers and bosses peering to keep you in line. I've been working out of my home for sixteen years and have tried just about everything. In an attempt to learn from my own (and others') mistakes, I have something now that works for me. I heard (or read) a person that calls his system pickle jar management. Imagine a pickle jar with big rocks, small and medium rocks all the way down to grains of sand. Every time you get a task - in my case it could be business or personal - place it in the pickle jar. Its size is based on both effort and importance. A yellow lined pad is my pickle jar. I make absolutely sure I write down everything I have to do. I get a call from a customer or and email that contains something I need to do, I write it down. Each morning I start pulling the biggest rocks from my pickle jar. Once I get down so far and don't have enough time left in the day to pull out another stone, I go to work on Dabo, PostGreSQL or some other long term project that requires quiet time. The one other thing I do is keep my reference books in the bathroom. Currently there are a couple of Python books in there. My day starts at 7:30 and ends at 6:00 and I don't do any work outside of my work day due to family and self obligations. Of course the reading could start earlier and end later. ;^) Jeff Jeff Johnson [EMAIL PROTECTED] 623-582-0323 Fax 623-869-0675 --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/signed text/plain (text body -- kept) application/x-pkcs7-signature --- ___ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

Re: [NF][PHP]Debugging in PHP
Well, I was trying to turn you on to perl with Komodo. g I figured you might even be interested in ActivePerl Pro Studio. I figured it wouldn't hurt to give perl a little plug as I scarcely ever hear it meson around the forum as a viable option. http://www.activestate.com/products/activeperlprostudio/ But Komodo is suppose to work well with many open source programming languages, including perl, php, Tcl, python, and most recently ruby. I think Komodo is more mature under perl that any of the other languages. I was disappointed to hear that Komodo's step through code feature acted erratically under php. I wasn't aware of that, and I just recently paid $99 to upgrade to Komodo 4.0. I've use Komodo almost exclusively with perl, and both perl and Komodo have been great. You might consider turning in a bug report over on the Activestate site about your problem with php under Komodo. Regards, LelandJ Kenneth Kixmoeller/fh wrote: On Apr 24, 2007, at 5:03 PM, Leland F.

VFP 9 Amazing jumping check boxes...
It's the end of the day and I think this form I'm working on is possessed. It's pretty simple. Nothing fancy. No page frames, grids, etc. Just some labels, text boxes, command buttons and check boxes. I positioned everything where I want it, save the form and run it. My carefully positioned check boxes move almost all the way off the left side of the form. I close the form and they appear almost off the end of the form in the designer. When I look at the value for left for both controls, they match where I left them in the first place. I repeat this process several times. Position them, save and run the form and watch them move on their own. I figured there are 2 likely culprits - the font I was using or the caption position. Turns out it was door number 2.

Re: [OT] JAY LENO... HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD
Oh please check snopes.com first. http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/jayleno.asp --- Kent Belan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: JAY LENO... HITS THE NAIL ON THE HEAD The other day I was reading Newsweek magazine and came across some poll data I found rather hard to believe. It must be true given the source, right? The Newsweek poll alleges that 67 percent of Americans are unhappy with the direction the country is headed and 69 percent of the country is unhappy with the performance of the president. In essence 2/3s of the citizenry just ain't happy and want a change. So being the knuckle dragger I am, I started thinking, ''What we are so unhappy about?'' Is it that we have electricity and running water 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? Is our unhappiness the result of having air conditioning in the summer and heating in the winter? Could it be that 95.4 percent of these unhappy folks have a job? Maybe it is the ability to walk into a grocery store at any time and see more food in moments than Darfur has seen in the last year? Maybe it is the ability to drive from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean without having to present identification papers as we move through each state? Or possibly the hundreds of clean and safe motels we would find along the way that can provide temporary shelter? I guess having thousands of restaurants with varying cuisine from around the world is just not good enough. Or could it be that when we wreck our car, emergency workers show up and provide services to help all and even send a helicopter to take you to the hospital. Perhaps you are one of the 70 percent of Americans who own a home. You may be upset with knowing that in the unfortunate case of a fire, a group of trained firefighters will appear in moments and use top notch equipment to extinguish the flames thus saving you, your family and your belongings. Or if, while at home watching one of your many flat screen TVs, a burglar or prowler intrudes , an officer equipped with a gun and a bullet-proof vest will come to defend you and your family against attack or loss. This all in the backdrop of a neighborhood free of bombs or militias raping and pillaging the residents. Neighborhoods where 90 percent of teenagers own cell phones and computers. How about the complete religious, social and political freedoms we enjoy that are the envy of everyone in the world? Maybe that is what has 67 percent of you folks unhappy. Fact is, we are the largest group of ungrateful, spoiled brats the world has ever seen. No wonder the world loves the U.S. , yet has a great disdain for its citizens. They see us for what we are. The most blessed people in the world who do nothing but complain about what we don't have , and what we hate about the country instead of thanking the good Lord we live here. I know, I know. What about the president who took us into war and has no plan to get us out? The president who has a measly 31 percent approval rating? Is this the same president who guided the nation in the dark days after 9/11? The president that cut taxes to bring an economy out of recession? Could this be the same guy who has been called every name in the book for succeeding in keeping all the spoiled ungrateful brats safe from terrorist attacks? The commander in chief of an all-volunteer army that is out there defending you and me? Did you hear how bad the President is on the news or talk show? Did this news affect you so much, make you so unhappy you couldn't take a look around for yourself and see all the good things and be glad? Think about it..are you upset at the President because he actually caused you personal pain OR is it because the Media told you he was failing to kiss your sorry ungrateful behind every day. Make no mistake about it. The troops in Iraq and Afghanistan have volunteered to serve, and in many cases may have died for your freedom. There is currently no draft in this country. They didn't have to go. ; They are able to refuse to go and end up with either a ''general'' discharge, an ''other than honorable'' discharge or, worst case scenario, a ''dishonorable'' discharge after a few days in the brig. So why then the flat-out discontentment in the minds of 69 percent of Americans? Say what you want but I blame it on the media. If it bleeds it leads and they specialize in bad news. Everybody will watch a car crash with blood and guts. How many will watch kids selling lemonade at the corner? The media knows this and media outlets are for-profit corporations. They offer what sells , and when criticized, try to defend their actions by justifying them in one way or another. Just ask why they tried to allow a murderer like O.J. Simpson to write a book about how he didn't kill his wife, but if he did he would have done it this

[NF] -- Vista Leaves Some Out in Cold
With Vista, Microsoft revamped the Windows operating system's ability to natively lock out unapproved USB storage devices through some new policy items in its Group Policy. However, this capability requires a service that has quietly been denied to some customers by default—a casualty of Microsoft's attempts to comply with the anti-competition dictates of the European Union. Unfortunately, the Portable Device Enumerator Service comes with Windows Media Player rather than with the base Vista operating system, so the N versions of Vista won't get the feature without installing the Windows Media Player or kludging together a different workaround. The fact that a core security feature of Vista is based on the presence of a rich media application underscores what a convoluted system Windows continues to be. http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,2119297,00.asp ___ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

[OT] The VP was way too diplomatic
http://tinyurl.com/36pb7o A week or so ago I was of the opinion that the Right Hon. Sen. Reid was, at worst, and empty suit---Pelosi's poodle---with not even a scary bark compared to Cruella herself. But peering a little more deeply into his beady little eyes as he has been uttering the most outrageous and dangerous nonsense over the last week, I can only credit The Big Dick with being far nicer and more diplomatic in his description of Reid's than I would be. The English language does not contain an expletive that full captures what I think of that man now. (I could probably utter something in Russian that comes close, though.) Needless to say the CNN reporter makes it sound like Cheney said something offensive when all he was doing was reciting facts in typically clinical, straightforward fashion. Reid was the one calling names and fabricating what the controversy was about. More for the troops my ass---a surrender timeline and 20% pork to boot to buy the blue dogs. Who is he kidding? I have a desire to expound at length about the demerits of Reid's rhetorical posturing, how he personalizes and politicizes it in the most unprofessional and shocking manner, but it's overwhelmed by a desire to take a shower just thinking about it. Man, I hope they keep it up. There will be a backlash. I hope that Kucinich gets more air time too, right next to Sheryl Crow with her single square solution to global warming; somehow the two subjects belong together. The insanity of their worldview is finally starting to seep out, and pretty soon they won't be able to keep the inmates from running the asylum.

[NF] Is Choice Always Good?
An excellent essay on why the MS monoculture (One Microsoft Way) isn't always a bad thing: Microsoft offers the certainty of no choices. Choice isn't always good, and the open source community sometimes offers far too many ways to skin the same cat, choices that are born more out of pride, ego or stubbornness than a genuine need for two different paths. I won't point fingers, everyone knows examples. Now, least you think I've been turned to the Dark Side, there is one BIG problem with a monoculture,...

The only real faux pas Cheney made so far as VP was telling Leaky Leahy to go f*ck himself within earshot of a microphone (I would argue shooting the lawyer was a net positive, even if it was a Republican friend ;-) ), and that was more restrained than what I would have told that #(#$@(#*$@(#*$@ after what Leahy said about him on the floor of the Congress just hours prior to trying to chum it up with him in a photo op. All other transgressions of his were legitimate policy differences pursued with the vigor of a public servant who believes in what he's doing (right or wrong), and I am so tired of people painting him as an attack dog when in fact he's far more civil in his tone and deference to facts than any of these sensationalist goof balls on the Democrat side. They have all---from Schumer, to Rangel, to Leahy, to Reid, to Pelosy, to Kerry, to Dean, to you name it... so crossed the boundary of civil discourse going way back to 2003 that for them to act like victims of a totalitarian regime is on its face an insult to any intelligent person who has followed the debate. Especially since the only person who has gone to prison over disagreement about a fact is Scooter Libby, and they now have the power. Bush is Hitler, yeah, right. If the media had any integrity they could have played a 5 minute montage of all the Democrats (including Clinton, Kerry, Reid, etc.) who warned us in no uncertain terms about Saddam's WMDs in 1998 and during the debate over the war resolution in 2002 that all of these hypocrites voted for right after showing Kucinich's retard-in-chief i- wanna-be-a-contendah conference today. But the media has as much integrity as the current crop of Republicans have testicles. Incidentally at the moment I plan to vote for Fred Thompson, whether or not he runs. Gulianni and Romney excite me not at all based on all I know about them right now, Gingrich is too full of himself and frankly damaged goods, and I can't imagine any of the other players making it on the national radar. I think it would be a good thing if Cheney stepped down for health reasons and Bush at least had a chance to pick a VP who could run as an incumbent. But Bush is too loyal to throw anyone of his people under the bus for political reasons. On the other hand, maybe Washington will ultimately disabuse him of blind loyalty to friends. It's gotten him apparently nowhere after six years of routing Islamofascists on every front, including Iraq, and bringing the stock market to an all-time high. I still cannot process how, on any level, we've supposedly failed in Iraq. The supposedly civilized world has completely lost any sense of historical perspective. Hell, even you Pete are speculating What if Kucinich succeeds? Have you followed his career at all? I once shared an apartment with that loser when I was a wee toddler in Cleveland. (He was running for dog catcher or city councilman or something even then.) The only thing he ever achieved was being mayor of Cleveland when the city went bankrupt and the Cuyahoga river erupted in flames. - Bob -- Regards, Pete http://www.pete-theisen.com/ [excessive quoting removed by server] ___ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.

[OT] This is classic
http://tinyurl.com/2mzy2v - - - Ségolène Royal, the first woman with a chance of leading France, began re-shaping her campaign yesterday as she faced a runoff with the clear favourite in the presidential election, the rightwing former interior minister Nicolas Sarkozy. Ms Royal began the difficult task of convincing France that she was not merely an off-the-shelf traditional Socialist in designer clothing and could break away from her party roots to capture the centre ground. With the candidates racing to win over the 7 million people who voted for the centrist third-man François Bayrou, party advisers said Ms Royal would stand no chance of winning if she fought a traditional socialist campaign of left versus right. Instead she set out to reassure the centre ground she could be all things to all people, to prove, despite her critics, she could reinvent the nation. - - - This article is chock full of nuggets. Consider: 1. Royal and her supporters openly admit they have to lie about her to fool the voters. Typical left wing condescension. On the other hand, it worked for the Dems last year in the elections. 2. Read on: *** Nicolas Sauger, a political analyst, said Ms Royal also had to convince the nation she was not the hesitant, incompetent party outsider her critics described. He said it was crucial to hammer out policies that fitted the centrist vote, such as a pro-European message with a promise of a referendum on any new constitution. She also had to pick up Mr Bayrou's quest to reform French democracy. France's public debt, now at 66% of GDP, was crucial to the centrist campaign and Ms Royal is likely to increase calls to curb spending deficits. But in a campaign focused on personality, Ms Royal faces a difficult fight. Even socialist voters yesterday said they were let down by her speech after Sunday night's results, appearing stiff, wooden and uncomfortable. She is often accused of having a grating voice. Mr Sauger said: Her problem isn't really one of policies, it's one of image, how she communicates. *** Some observations: 1. You think we have a lot of public debt! I bet if the article mentioned French unemployment rates it would be equally embarrassing for France. 2. If her problem isn't one of policies but how she communicates ... why does she have to avoid a clear left-versus- right battle, in which both she and her opponent are honest about being left and right, respectively? Why does she have to be pushed to the centre? 3. Speaking of grating voices, have these folks heard Hillary! or Pelosi? 4. The West is doomed if Royal and Hillary win.

Dumb Socialist redundant. --- Helio W. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Same old story.

I bet if the article mentioned French unemployment rates it would be equally embarrassing for France. 2. If her problem isn't one of policies but how she communicates ... why does she have to avoid a clear left-versus- right battle, in which both she and her opponent are honest about being left and right, respectively? Why does she have to be pushed to the centre? 3. Speaking of grating voices, have these folks heard Hillary! or Pelosi? 4. The West is doomed if Royal and Hillary win.

Re: [OT] This is classic
Good to hear from you Helio. How have you been lately? I've been buried in a new job. Were it not for the flu the last couple of days I might not have had time to catch up on politics and ProFox OT. It's helped me recover, frankly. ;-) - Bob On Apr 25, 2007, at 1:02 AM, Helio W. wrote: Same old story.
