Beware. This crafty fellow is even more intelligent and wise than his frequent posts here would lead you to believe. Apparently he's completely underestimated the threat I present to any visitors and actually exposed his beautiful and bright wife to my insidious influence; even worse, he allowed his young son to sit in my presence throughout our dinner. The young man was well protected from my evil aura, I think, as he expressed his extreme boredom several times, albeit most politely, and was not overwhelmed by my awesome presence. I think I may have converted him to a new, rather quaint religion while his parents were revisiting the buffet, but I won't know for sure until the next full moon and the usual parental sacrifices the Dark Lord requires of His young converts.
Dinner was excellent, with Prime Rib being featured on my plate, accompanied by the Tropicana's amazingly delicious horseradish, which compares favorably with thermite on the heat index. IMHO, the Tropicana Express (nee Ramada Express) has the finest buffet along the river this year. The casinos are always in flux in their respective dining experiences, so that can change anytime, but for the past several years, Tropicana has never failed to please. Unfortunately, tonight their poker machines fell short of expectations, much to my surprise. Most nights when I stop by, within an hour or two, I find 4 Aces on my screen for a handy payout that leaves me well ahead of the house. But tonight it wasn't to be. Alas, I dropped a bit, hit a lesser 4-of-a-kind, was up a bit, then fell again without ever seeing my faithful 4 Aces all night. Oh well... 
All in all, it was a delightful night, and I much enjoyed meeting our esteemed colleague and his delightful family. I look forward to doing so again one day!

Well, that's your own opinion and thus deserving no much credit.

I missed the opportunity on the way our to meet with them because of time constraints but sounds like I missed a lot.
I wished we could have made it up to see you also but we never got that far west and my brother couldn't get away for more than a long weekend because of work and we had a list of places we wanted to go.
My brother wrote me a few days ago and said that Sedona was having some bad fires, what a shame sure a beautiful place.

Yes it was. It's good to know a local who has already done thorough reseach on the dining options. By the way, the dinner buffet at the Cholera D'Obelle was not very good -- but their breakfast buffet was pretty good.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

 Just needs a little work right, I'm sure Nikon won't charge me much for repairs?

Hello all,
I've got a blackberry till now. BIS only, no BES so no synchronization of e-mails.
Now I'll have an android (Samsung S4) and I would like to know if there is any way to get the e-mails synched correctly on the cell phone, laptop and on the desktop.
The question is:
Is there any way to get the received e-mails on all the devices?
I guess setting the mail accounts as IMAP having the mail server to keep a copy of all the e-mails will do it for the received mails.
But what about the sent items? can I have any e-mail sent from my laptop in the right sent folder on my desktop and cell phone? can I have an e-mail sent from my phone visible in my laptop and desktop as a sent e-mail?
Any tip about that?
I've searched the net and I've found tricks like adding rules to send a copy of my e-mails to myself and then move them to the sent folder but this looks artificial...
Thank you all!

If you're using IMAP, sent emails should also be stored on the server - at least that's how it works for my IMAP server (which is pretty vanilla). This should allow all email clients to automatically be in sync.

Hi Ravi, after setting a couple of special tricks in Outlook 2013 to cope with our e-mail IMAP server, and disabling the antivirus, our outlooks work as expected, no new folders created, fast, and well synchronized between all other devices.
Thank you for your feedback!

Glad that it worked out for you!

It scores a MASSIVE 3.3/10 on IMDB[^]
It is SO good that it doesn't even feature on rottentomatoes.com!

Yeah, I wanted to give it a chance, but man, it sucks. I smell sock puppets[^]. Sharknado is a masterpiece compared to this  .

It would have rated higher but the president survives.

I have asked the programming question here, here[^], but would just like some pointers on where to very quickly learn how to create a very basic version of the Joomla extension Coupon Manager[^]. I only need to demo a few basic setup screens on Monday. My only prior LAMP CMS experience has been WordPress modules.
But where in blazes do I even start? The Joomla docs only cover very basic creation of the extension itself, not how to use Joomla facilities in it etc. At least not as far as I have looked.

I'm running this bitcoin API code retriving the data from MtGox but it's not working any longer because they site is not up anymore. Goal is to now pull the info from blockchain.info/ticker or bitstamp.net/api/ticker/ or both tickers APIs. If you want to see an example you can go to bitcoinvalues.net. It's supposed to show on top of the site but there is not data.
1.<?php
2.
3. $ch = curl_init('https://mtgox.com/api/0/data/ticker.php');
4. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_REFERER, 'Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MtGox PHP client; '.php_uname('s').'; PHP/'.phpversion().')');
5. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "CakeScript/0.1");
6. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
7. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
8. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST, false);
9. curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYPEER, false);
10. $mtgoxjson = curl_exec($ch);
11. curl_close($ch);
12.
13.
14. $output_mtgox = json_decode($mtgoxjson);
15. $output_mtgox_1 = get_object_vars($output_mtgox);
16. $mtgox_array = get_object_vars($output_mtgox_1['ticker']);
17.
18. ?>
19. <br/>
20. <br/>
21. Last: <?php echo $mtgox_array['last']; ?><br/>
22. High: <?php echo $mtgox_array['high']; ?><br/>
23. Low: <?php echo $mtgox_array['low']; ?><br/>
24. Avg: <?php echo $mtgox_array['avg']; ?><br/>
25. Vol: <?php echo $mtgox_array['vol']; ?><br/>

Good for you!
But...this isn't for questions. There is a bit of text just above this which says:
Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific help please use the programming forums. So try the PHP forum: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1213650/Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.aspx[^]
Or QA: http://www.codeproject.com/Questions/ask.aspx[^]
Either way, it'd probably be a good idea to give us some kind of idea of what your problem is and what help you need, because very few of us can read minds...and those of us who can don;t like to remove out tin-foil hats because The Voices will start again, and that's never a good sign.
