This is the second test of my modified Anarchy Media Player Plugin:
To test the modified Anarchy Media Player Plugin, I have uploaded TWO files her:
mms.wmv AND mms.wmv.jpg, the thumbnail preview for the video.
In this case the modified Anarchy Media Player Plugin detects that there is a different preview thumbnail image to use that matches the file name of the WMV file, and uses that instead of vid_play.gif
This file is the first test of the modified Anarchy Media Player.
In this case I ONLY uploaded the Waterbed.wmv file, no custom preview JPG file.
The Anarchy Media Player shows its own preview-image in this case, vid_play.gif, which admittedly looks very ugly. I do recommend that you create a more neutral vid_play.gif, with a black arrow or so.
But if you upload a JPG file that matches the file name, e.g. Waterbed.wmv.jpg, then the modified Media Player shows THAT image instead of the vid_play.gif.
That way you have full control over how your videos present itself..

As Pat Clouden explains in his new book, The Power of Words, there’s one common denominator that literally all intellectual giants of the world had in common: a superior grasp of vocabulary of the subject matter that they were dealing with.
Vocabulary, vocabulary, vocabulary. You need to know the words, and even more important, the meaning of the words, so that you can be fully conversant with the subject matter in reading and writing. This is particularly important in the sciences but also in literary fields and language.
I always wished that there could be a more playful way is to get into the words, than to grab a dictionary and then to learn from there. There are so many kids today wasting their time with shooting down another set of Martians in their computer game, or making Super Mario go through yet another hoop and loop. Wouldn’t it be nice to channel that energy into something creative, and building the power of language and words?
These days the economy is in everybody’s focus, newspapers, television and websites are all reporting about the economic crisis, recession, money shortages, bankruptcies, and how this will affect just about everybody.
However, listening to all these whiners and reading all about the bad economic news will not get you very far. It seems that in just about any economy there are always those people who still succeeding and thriving despite what is going on.
It is important to listen to successful people who really know what they’re talking about and will willing to share their successful actions in critical economic times. More and more blogs are available to feature information about personal finance. Here is a very comprehensive website, called Personal Finance Guide.
In my mind it is most important that people do not only focus on how to save money and how to avoid expenditures, but it is much or more important that they look for ways to expand their income and to increase their revenues and profits. In fact, if everybody was looking for ways to expand the income and succeeding in doing so, any recession or depression would soon be over, because more and more money would be going around.
Instead, it seems to be common advice in the news to financially contract, to find ways how to save money, and how to get by with less. That may be a very good short-term strategy and of course, if somebody doesn’t have any money he would have to find ways how to not spend it, however if the entire society is instructed to do so, that will just extend the time of recession.
Wow, no wonder that the Swiss people always have this flair of cleanliness and orderliness. Other countries should take notice. For example, look at this fine detailed video about mountain cleaning:

Here are links to the Black Friday ads for 2007 in the Tampa Bay Clearwater Area. Last year, in 2007 Circuit City had probably the best deals of all in electronics. For this year I have not yet determined who is the winner.
At 6am in the morning one has really one ONE chance to get into ONE of the stores and one needs to pick which the best store is. I don’t like to have to wait in line for hours. I arrived just 10 minutes before the store opened at 6am in the morning.
Here is what I did to get in together with the very first customers at 6am:
There was a HUGE line of customers going counterclockwise in front of the building, all the way to the right side and in the rear of the building. I figured that there is no sense in standing in line in that counterclockwise endless line, so I went around the building in opposite direction. Just in the last few minutes there was a stream of employees coming into the building into the RIGHT entrance, and it was just very easy to walk with that last-minute stream employees into the store. So as the store opened I was already in there and had first pick among the Black Friday items on sale. goodies. Let’s hope it works again like that this time around in the Clearwater Circuit-City store.

The good news is in: The big OIL companies have just approved the next 2009 model series for GM, so that they can be really successful in 2009. The oil companies engineers have mandated a minimum gas consumption of 20 gallons per mile and THIS new 2009 Bail-Out model is fitting the bill. It ensures excellent oil profits and guarantees that the Bail-Out Billions are spent fast. Oil companies and the Arab oil sheiks agree: All new 2009 GM models will look like this, however, there are 3 different colors available.
This new sporty 2-seater symbolizes everything that the finest Detroit engineering stands for and is therefore called 2009 bailout buster.
Drive in style. This car has a tank that can tank the economy.
