Okay, my daughter and I are in Providence, RI. We were scheduled to do campus visit at Johnson & Wales University this morning but they called yesterday to cancel that tour and rescheduled it to tomorrow due to the snow they were expecting last night and this morning. We laughed at this this morning as what they got wouldn't even have delayed school back home.But here we are not knowing what to do today. Any suggestions?
Does Providence have a zoo? You might also check to see if Hasbro does daily tours.
Nah the zoo would be closed to due to the mass quantities of snow.:-D
Having lived in Northern Ontario I always found it humorous hearing about closures/cancellations for so little snow. The reality is though there is a huge spike in accidents in areas that are not used to dealing with snow. That being said I would have thought Rhode Island has seen it's share of the white stuff.
If you know what a block heater is than you have definitely learned how to drive in snow. 😉
... or if you have driven around with a few bags of kitty litter in your trunk.
I've grown up in Chicago and we generally don't cancel stuff due to snow unless there is so much that your door won't open.
Where I grew up in Illinois, it was ICE that closed stuff down, not the snow. We had ice storms that would drop 2-6 inches and heaven forfend anyone should try going anywhere on that stuff.

I had the same issue in the past, both with VMs and my laptop, where I partitioned the disk a bit too aggressively...What I ended up doing is moving all the updates (C:\windows\Installer) to a second drive and creating a symbolic link from c:\windows\installer to d:\windows\installer
Oooooo.... you've got to tell me how to create that "symbolic link", Gianluca. That would solve a wealth of sins where I work.
The command is mklink. Fairly easy to use.
You move the folder to a different disk then create a link with mklink.
Is there a specific reason to create a Junction Point (via "/J") instead of a Directory Symbolic Link (via "/D")? I am just curious. From everything I have been reading, it seems like Junction Points are essentially deprecated and offer no benefit over actual Symbolic Links. So I am just wondering if you have found a specific reason to use a Junction Point as none of the documentation or blog posts on this topic address this specific point, at least not clearly ;-).
No particular reason. I guess I've always been doing it like this since the windows XP days. Thanks for pointing it out

Does anyone else have an issue during submitting an article when you paste in some TSQL into the SQL snippet block and save it then go back to it and the TSQL is OUTSIDE the snippet block??

No. But I've noticed an issue sometimes when posting to the forums and trying to hyperlink URLs that sometimes the URL code shortcut will jump to the start of the post instead of the text I highlighted. Usually this happens when I inadvertently hit another key on the keyboard or brush the mouse the wrong way before or as I'm clicking the hyperlink button.
Maybe the same thing is happening to you with the article window?

Similar - often the cursor position is 2 characters to the right of where it should be. Every time I post a code snippet I have to check the cursor position. Such as right now:

Ok have a look at the presave attachment - this is what I want the article to look like (normal). Then I save it - please see the postsave attachment... moves out the block.
The URL tags are
<pre class="prettyprint lang-sql">
</pre>
which looks ok.

Have to check...

The first one looks ok to me, Blobby. Have you reported it?

In case you're wondering, I'm fine. I didn't have to be in Brussels today, so I avoided all of the commotion...

I heard about it on the news on the way to work this morning. I hope the cancer doesn't spread any more in your country. Good to know you're okay.
