Everything you need to know about being President, is what you learned in Kindergarten.

Presidential Candidates need to go back to Kindergarten. My wife is a Kindergarten teacher and she has said many times that if the president wanted to know how to deal with an issue he should think back to kindergarten and what their teacher taught them.

 

  1. Sharing is a must. Be kind.
  2. Name calling is uncalled for.
  3. Tattling won't be tolerated.
  4. There is a time for snacks and play.
  5. If someone hits you, you don't need to hit back.
  6. Your more likely to make friends from being kind then mean.
  7. Helping your neighbor is good. They may help you in the future.
  8. Can't make peace you have to build it.
  9. Alternative energy sources means fruit vegetables and healthy things.
  10. Cut back on Sugar.
  11. Even hurts that are not seen are cured by a kind word and a colorful Band-Aid.
  12. Isolating bad children doesn't help.
  13. Punishing a child is not as effective as providing incentives for them to behave.
  14. Give up put downs.
  15. Seek wise people.
  16. To notice and speak about hurts that I caused.
  17. Listen to your teacher.

Chrome: Copy settings between other computers

Buzz It

I have a Lenovo X61T and a Asus EeePC 901. On the Lenovo I have Vista Business and on the Asus I have XP Pro. I installed Chrome on both machines. I setup all my information and bookmarks on the Lenovo but wanted the same settings on the Asus. So I had to copy the data over, but there is no Export option in the Chrome application.

To copy the settings over you need to copy the User Data folder to the other computer.

On Vista the User Data is located at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome.

I zipped up the User Data folder and then copied it over to the Asus.

I extracted the folder to C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\local settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome

Once I opened Chrome on the Asus, all the tabs that were open on the Lenovo opened up as if I just closed it.

Chrome: No RSS reader or option to add to Google Reader?

I tried to subscribe to the Chrome Blog while in Chrome. Found out its not yet available.

Click on the Tab in the browser and drag it out to the desktop outside of the Chrome Browser.

The website tabe is then is separate from the Chrome Application.

Playing with Google’s Chrome

Looks like Google’s Cache Servers are default set with this Browser. Certain sites come up faster then other sites that are on the same network.

Otherwise first impressions is I like the simplicity of it and the ease of use. I need to play with it some more before I can say I like it or not.
