Windows Tip: Improve Windows Fonts with ClearType
This is a must do tweek to Windows, especially if you have a LCD monitor. The text is so much clearer and easier on the eyes.
If you haven’t done it, try it, and you will like it.
Here is a video on YouTube that really shows what the Army-Navy football game means. Congratulations to Navy for winning this years game and winning the Commanders-in-chief trophy.
I am in DC for work and stopped by the Whole Foods on “P Street” in the district.
When I went to pay, I just placed my small black basket on the belt to go to the cashier. When it was my turn she looked at me and said, “Will you take your groceries out of basket?”
This is weird.
What different does it make that the groceries are in my little basket then just sitting on the belt? The cashier can get those out just as easy as I can.
I remember the day when I was working in retail industry as a cashier and I would pull merchandise out of the grocery cart or the small baskets. It is not that big of a deal.
I think Whole Foods needs to look at this and we need cashiers who actually do some work. I am paying for those groceries.
If I wanted to pull them out of my small basket, I want self-checkout so I don’t have to deal with anyone. Especially if they are going to be negative and lazy.
Well Cal didn’t play well enough to win, but the officials helped out Stanford out at the end by not over-turning two obvious bad calls by the officials. Stanford beat Cal 20-13.
First, they didn’t over-turn an interception when it was obviously dropped and had hit the ground. Second, the players foot was on the line on a critical third down pass.
The Pacific-10 officials (both on-the-field and replay) have been horrible this year. The Pacific-10 needs to seriously look at their officiating and upgrade it. For a premier college football conference to have second-tier officials is pretty bad and brings down the reputation of the league.
Just ask Oklahoma.
