And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

ION, iPhoto stopped working on my laptop this morning. This means I have to find the install disk, doesn't it?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Try moving your iPhoto library out of the way, and see if it will run. (In the worst case, all of your pictures in your iphoto library can be recovered).

Tom, have I mentioned lately how awesome you are? That worked. Of course, I now have no pictures - what do I do to rebuild the old library?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

First, try moving your original iPhoto library back in place and try this. Otherwise, try the manual rebuild procedure that the document talks about.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Readability has forasaken me and moved into paid territory. Are there an free converters out there that can translate horrible webpages into easily readable simplicity? I'm living off of ramen noodles in order to put gas in my car, help!

All is well that ends in pizza.

Julie, if you use Firefox, I Use Adblock plus and flashblock add-ons to cut down on the visual clutter.

There are others, but I can't stand doing without those two, at the very least.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Optimising your home theatre setup for free.

I don't have any audio setup, and I'd like to do something more than just my 42" HD LG's audio has. Where's a good place to start looking for something entry level but not dead end? I'm not sure I'm ready to start wiring speakers to my wall for a full authentic surround sound experience, not quite yet.
