On a Kindle Fire (not HD/HDX) do you see books when the CLOUD is displayed that you deleted via Amazon Account's Manage Content and Devices? This has been reported back in 2011 but I found no simple answer to correct it and get rid of the erroneous books. I found a KINDLE app that manages them via local data, i.e., on the device itself, that was NOT handling some books, usually those borrowed via a public library for free, an although they do disappear from a Fire HDX, they remained on my older Fire! Below is the solution to make them disappear and sync only with those you left on the cloud.
The SOLUTION: On the Fire, Amazon has an application called "Content Management Services". So,
1. Swipe down from top
2. Tap MORE
3. Tap APPLICATIONS
4. Tap INSTALLED APPLICATIONS
5. Scroll down until you find the KINDLE app CONTENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES and then tap it
6. Tap CLEAR DATA
7. Back on out ... you're done and the erroneous cloud data should now be gone for the books that still appeared but were previously deleted from your Amazon Account via it's Mange Content and Devices feature
I hope gone forever. We'll see if they reappear. This is Day 1

776. Book Review: Green advocates will turn "ashamed" red after reading this
I want to thank Stephen Moore and Kathleen Hartnett White for their excellent book "Fueling Freedom". I have read many books on energy production and economical benefits. Most just gave me the "flavor" equivalent to licking cake icing off my finger. This one gave me the entire moist, delicious cake with double icing! Thank you Stephen and Kathleen.
If you were leaning GREEN all these years since the politicians unveiled their position to get rich or make their friends rich with FAKE advertising, then your face will turn red with shame after you read some of the details in this book. they reference over 625 other documents, books, articles, people to present the REAL benefit of Fossil fuels and how the world grew and fended off poverty because of more affordable and useful energy. they go way beyond the simple facts that green energy can never, never replace fossil fuels. Most people can't associate fossil fuels to anything except heating buildings and driving their vehicles,boats, etc. They are ignorant to the fact that EVERYTHING depends on affordable energy and the amount needed is so much larger than they view in their green myopic lens. The government officials and EPA themselves admitted that the best they can expect even by 2050 is about 10% of total total energy requirements. Folks, energy is needed to grow your food, make all products, make steel and other building materials, everything in addition to transportation and heating. AND Green Renewable energy cost more to produce energy than to it can produce. Don't believe me, read this!
So you say So What? It's clean. Well NO. All the extra processes to make renewable energy is NOT green by the greenie definition. Did you know that an electric grid, that's the entire distribution network to deliver electricity, needs to provide STABLE energy. Fluctuations in in flow disrupt or cause much more reprocessing requirements to stabilize the network. As a matter of fact, BACKUP coal/gas/other plants need to continue to run to ensure the network remains stable. For, Wind and Solar are NOT available 24 hours a day. Only up to 20% maximum energy of the rated capacity (if it always produces) is ever available. Texas uses the a figure 8%-10% as the max. for wind for when the peak summer requirements are upon us, the winds are slight if any at all! And the foot print! Wow, 7-10 x more land is required. There goes the Co2 eating trees and vegetation. The authors delve into detail re Co2 which is a necessity for plant growth and provided NO harm to humans who also breather it. We ARE carbon machines if you didn't know.
I wish I could go on and on with the details covered in this book. there is so much I'd have to copy it in entirely here. Just go read it. Especially you youngsters who are being indoctrinated with lies re the role of Fossil fuels in the economy and the so-called-benefits of green technologies. In this book you'll learn how England and Germany bit on the carrot only to be led to the roaster. Both countries are now paying 2-3 times what our electric costs and poverty has increased because people can't afford electric. they have returned to burning WOOD (considered a renewable source for energy credits) despite it carbon and other gas output. Whereas the poverty had been decreasing since fossil energy became available it is now increasing! As a matter of face, the International watchdogs also got on the wrong train and are penalizing countries by NOT providing funding for fossil fuel plants for electric. What's more important? People's lives and economic growth or useless, politicized carbon credits? This boils me!
Mankind can NOT prosper without fossil fuels, so get over the green-thing. Green energy is NOT profitable and can NOT provide the requirements necessary now or never. Green energy cost more -- it's companies can ONLY remain profitable with subsidies (your tax dollars). Green is POLITICAL and Rich Wealth building while it lasts.
PLEASE read this book!

775. LOW TONER DP-L2540DW and NO PRINT OUTPUT?
Another day, another surprise. Who would have thought you would get just a Low Toner warning message printing to a Brother DP-L2540DW printer and NOT get the print out! That's tight. Told my PC to print and the Low Toner message came up and then disappeared. Went to the printer and no output. After 3 times, I clicked on the message before it disappeared and the output came out on the printer. Now, wouldn't you think this would be documented some place? Wrong! The User's manual mentions the Low Toner, but provides no instructions to move forward. Guess Brother wants you to call their support line so they can tell you to click on the message while they are trying to sell you toner.
Well, instead of having to click on the message every time, you can set the printer to CONTINUE PRINTING when this occurrs. Again, not in any user manual and took me quite a while to find the correct instructions for the DP-L2540DW printer. The following works:
1. On the printer panel, push MENU button
2. You will get General Setup in the status window ... push OK
3. Now scroll (up or down) until you see REPLACE TONER in window ... push OK
4. Now you can scroll (up or down) and change from STOP to CONTINUE ... then push OK
5. Windows text will indicate ACCEPTED
6. Push STOP/EXIT Button
You are now good to go and can ignore the Low Toner message, but of course don't forget to buy some for when it really runs out. Where did I buy my TN660 High Yield Toner? This time at INKTECHNOLOGIES.COM. I bought inkjet ink there many times and was always pleased. So, I'll now try their toner. Another recommended brand was Aurthur and available at Amazon. $51 for two TN660 is much better than Brother's $79 for one. If it becomes a bad choice I'll update this entry.

This page will explain how to get rid of the pesky error in Event Viewer, however, you will have to read-between-the-lines in the instructions to find some of the references. Make an intelligent guess at where they may reside -- try other tabs, etc. ONE IMPORTANT NOTE: Read the last instruction "In there you need to grant back ownership to the original owners.In this case one Hive Key was owned by "SYSTEM" the other by "TrustedInstaller" (type: NT SERVICE\TrustedInstaller)". In other words, BEFORE you do the changes, leading up to the first you need to jot down the OWNERs in the original permission properties. And, always backup registry first before changing it.

771. Printing on Amarillo Globe times website
One shouldn't expect this local, terrible, paper and site to function properly. thus is the case for printing articles, in this case an obituary. If you want the entire article WITH the picture of the person you have to jump through the following hoops:
- Right-click on the article page and select SAVE AS
- Save as a HMTL ONLY file (NOT the complete website)
- Now bring p the page from your saved file
- Now click right and print and you'll get picture and all.

770. Chrome View PDF no longer works right - UPDATE
6/20/17 - AGAIN Chrome, now version 57, changed and screwed up things. Chrome://Plugins is no longer available to perform the original solution to problems with PDF viewing AND saving. After many hours of playing with PDF viewers and Chrome settings here are the results and tips:
First, I have selected the Microsoft EDGE browser as my default PFD viewer by doing Control Program->Programs->Default Programs-> set defaults. Scrolling to Microsft Edge I then selected ONLY the "Choose Defaults for this program" [I do NOT use EDGE for my browser]. Now when I select a PDF file from File Explorer, EDGE opens to view it. HOWEVER, EDGE does NOT allow me to look at all files within a folder when I do a SAVE AS from within Chrome, e.g., If I am looking at a bank statement in PDF format USING Edge, I will NOT be able to display all FILEs withing a folder when I try to save it [I actually want to see the filename format/convention I am using so I can save it the same]. Thus, within Chrome settings [Settings->Advanced Settings->Contents, go to bottom where there is an option to now tell Chrome you want to use the Syatem's Viewer [EDGE] in my case and make sure it is UNCHECKED. When UNCHECKED, Chrome uses it's viewer which DOES ALLOW you to look at all files within a folder when downloading the PDF.
Note: I still have not figured out why in last version in the DOWNLOAD dialog I had the option to look at first only PDF files and then use the popup arrow to look at ALL FILES. For some reason, after many reboots and program loops, it now comes up ONLY displaying all files. Search me! It seems to work [today at least] like I want it to, in summary, within Chrome use the Chrome viewer for PDF files and download to my desired filename after reviewing the already existing files within the desired folder displayed by the DOWNLOAD dialog. However, If I bring up File Explorer and select a PDF file, EDGE comes up to display it. Do NOT attempt to set your system default for PDF files to Chrome! This is what caused my continuous open loop attempting to look at a file OR to display just the active tab page instead of the PDF file! Good luck.
---------------- Everything below is now invalid as of 6/20/17 ---------------------
Surprise, surprise. Chrome changed something again without checking it out. Now there were 2 Chrome PDF Viewers in the Settings (Chrome://Plugins). when I disabled the one indicating location= chrome-extension://garbage....// everything came back to normal. So, I now have ONE Chrome PDF Viewer showing it is the "chrome-pdf-viewer" Where the other came from, one only knows. I have no other extension loaded.
Update 10/18/16
For some reason ADOBE started to come up. In a Windows 7 (See categories) entry I reported that I was no longer able to see ALL Files -- could only see .PDF files -- when saving a document and examining the Save Dialog file entry box. Well, today I enabled the Chrome entry I previously disabled. Thus, 2 entries for Chrome PDF Viewer are enabled again. And I am again back to it all being correct. Go figure!
Summary. Keep BOTH Chrome PDF Viewer entries (below) enabled (Enter about:plugins to see plugins):
Chrome PDF Viewer (2 files)

768. Microsoft Happy Anniversary 1607 Update Surprise
This afternoon I went to get on my PC and it told me to wait, updates were being applied and several restarts may occur. Well, after an hour it got to 57% so I figured the Windows Anniversary Update 1607 was being pushed on. I wasn't yet prepared for this like usual, i.e., took no system image, didn't write down Start stuff that might disappear, etc.
Well, to my surprise when I did finally get on and it came all the way up, everything was nearly the same. Yes Cortana was back on (I had deleted her) but she was turned off. There was one thin on my Start menu that disappeared, but I can't remember what was there. One Drive nagged me initially indicating that I need to sign into use it (I don't). And what this Ink thing is ... well it isn't on my PC!
So, the install was effortless and effective. Just the way I wanted it to be configured. Thank you Microsoft.
Well, NOT SO FAST. Remember the old card games that I modified to get working: Freecell, Hearts, Spider. there DEAD. I will pursue putting them back on AND check out all the other nuisances that I experienced when updating from Windows 7. Stay tuned. Update 9/29/16: See Post 706 for new instructions to get ALL the Windows 7 games back and running.
May I add that after researching the Anniversary Update "Bewares" and like, I have found most to be untrue, e.g.,
1. The Default Apps remained the same as I had before (they say changed)
2. Cortana remained OFF as I had before (they said ON)
3. Sype Preview is NOT set with you signed in as they said if it was off before
The only things I had to do are:
1. Install Windows 7 Games
2. Put the Volume ICON back into Syaytem Tray
3. Unpinned Store, Edge, Search from Taskbar
In other words, you couldn't expect any installation this size to be finer. Kudos to MSFT

769. Windows 10 Anniversary Update ate some cake
My last entry complemented Microsoft for the effective install. This entry slaps their hand again for destroying the use of old Microsoft games. Post 706 has been updated and states that no longer will the games from Windows 7, even those modified as per Post 706, work! WRONG!
Option 1: Instead, I copied my XP version of the games over to the Windows 10 Anniversary version and am running them AS IS without any modification. I suppose Microsoft will discover this and spend its time killing this implementation too instead of working on new things and bring these loved games back to us.
Anyway, find the XP versions and continue to play.
Option 2:
Get ALL the games from https://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/56428-Windows-7-Games-for-Windows-8-8-1-Multilanguage . See new instruction in Post 706. These are the Windows 7 games and the install is easy. Don't forget to scan the ZIP file with YOUR antivirus and malware programs to ensure your comfort. Kudos to ElDiabl0 on the https://forums.mydigitallife.info website forum. Register, signin, download, Extract files from the Zipped file, run SETUP, select games desired, go to town. Enjoy. btw: Microsoft is the noted publisher on the games AND your old stats are brought forward ( 3,653 Freecell wins in a row)

767. Thunderbird gets #MBR1212 error to Yahoo login
Nice job Yahoo! Yahoo added a security feature that requires you to designate whether you want Yahoo to ALLOW APPS TO USE LESS SECURE LOGIN. Don't turn it off! I made the mistake of changing my Yahoo password and noticed this added feature and naturally turned it OFF since I though it was like other Mobile setting that allowed something like allow in-app purchases.
Anyway, if you set it OFF you won't be able to connect your email to Yahoo. It MUST be set ON. Most likely this applies not only to Thunderbird email client, but to all others. Just awhile ago I received an email from Yahoo stressing that its website should be used for emails, NOT a "less secure" email client. See the connection to the problem?

766. Display ALL FILES within SAVE AS dialog
Under Chrome when you get to the point that yo want to save a PDF file, it's SAVE AS dialog box gives you a default choice of .PDF, but also allows you to select "All Files" in the "Save As Type" selection box. IE and Edge do NOT have the code to give you the option to look at all files in the folder by selecting an "All Files" option as described.
Problem: I encrypt my files and the suffix changes from the given name, for example, ABC.PDF to one the encryption software uses, for example the ABC.PDF file gets converted to ABC-PDF.XXX where .xxx is know to the encryption software. Thus, if I want to determine the file name convention I'm using for a specific file I am trying to save, I have no way way to display existing files of the .PDF type because they are already changed to .XXX. Confused? Let me give you another example:
2016_File1.PDF is created
2016_File2.PDF is created
I encrypt them and thy become :
2016_File1-PDF.XXX, and
2016_File2-PDF.XXX
Next week I go to a website and select my current Financial Statement. It displays in Adobe Reader and I select an option to SAVE it. The SAVE AS dialog popup comes up with the file name entered as "Your_Financial _Statement_20160812". I don't want this long name, but forgot the naming convention I used for these statements. I maneuver to get to the desired folder and want to see the format of the names I already saved previously so I can create a similar name this time. However, the Save As dialog box does NOT give me an option to view All the Files and instead only lists files ending in .PDF. Not Helpful! As I stated, Chrome DOES give you the option which is PROGRAMMED within their version of PDF handler (NOT ADOBE). So, If I am using a different browser, such as IE or Edge, I will NOT see an "All Files option. Thus, without the trick below, I have to bring up File Explorer to see the desired format.
SOLUTION:
The solution in IE and Edge or any other Save As dialog, or probably even an Open dialog where the choice is ONLY the file type that the application knows, is to enter an * in the file type and hit enter. This will cause all files to be listed in the dialog box. Voile!

765. Hello. Hello. You can't hear me and I can't hear you.
Today I used Teamviewer for the first time to allow a friend to show me how to do something on my computer. It allows a user to remotely control your system. Control was fine, but we couldn't converse via voice. This was my first use of a microphone on this PC, so I automatically blamed it on incompatibility. However, I found an option to ALLOW or NOT ALLOW camera and microphone in Flash player. I had it off. Maybe next time the Teamviewer software will be allowed to use them.
764. Windows Password? Trying to view my passwords.
Well, old dogs can still learn new tricks. Apparently Google changed Chrome sometime to force you to specify the Windows Password if you want to see the passwords for sites where you saved a login password. In short, you go to Google Chrome Settings,, advanced settings, manage passwords and get a list of sites that have saved passwords. A button to the right for each allows you to SHOW the password. Except it takes you to a popup that asks for your Windows Password. Well, do you know it? Is it your Google PW? How about your Microsoft PW? How about Windows Live? Strike 3 and your out.
The mean your Window's Account password. The one you use to sign into your windows account (if you specified one) to get on YOUR account on your machine. Some people may use the Microsoft password for this, but the majority use the LOCAL password for this. LOCAL password is specified in the User Account.
So, there you have it. Hope I saved you some time and aggravation since I found NO HELP from searching for help. Enjoy.

763. Typical Liberal AP Misdirection!
Check out this article!
The headline "The Latest: Poll shows young American views on immigration" gets you interested. IMMEDIATELY you get a full page Picture of Hillary. For those who can't read, you would believe the immigration story favors Hillary. Then to support the PICTURE that already misleads the viewer, the FIRST paragraph notes that the minorities favor Hillary. For those who can only read one or two paragraphs, they are again misled that Hillary is in the driver's seat. BUT, read on. About 3 SENTENCES later, but 3 paragraphs also, they finally tell the REAL STORY that Trump blows her out on the immigration border issue!

763. Thanks Michael Phelps
A shout out is necessary for an individual who not only display his success as an Olympic swimmer and collector of gold for decades. but also an individual whose DEDICATION and EFFORTS got him there despite all hurdles. Being a swimmer myself (Sam did super well too) I know the work and dedication to be the greatest. I chose a different path, so I didn't really experience Michael Phelps' in full and don't know if that would even had been possible. However, Michael captured my thoughts and inspired me just like I hope he has inspired others in showing that hard work, thinking positive, beliefs, and dedication can get you to your goals whatever they are. Think positive and go to work. Thank you Michael Phelps. I wish you the same or greater success in whatever your pursue now.
762. Yahoo MEDIA continues to badger Trump and Mislead We the People
Trump again criticized the Media, rightfully so, as I have been reporting for years even before Trump was a candidate. Yahoo News, definitely liberal and strongly anti-Trump added to the fire by submitting this article reporting his displeasure with Media. BUT instead of stopping there, they had to complete shout it down with Anti-Trump reports again. For example:
"Trump suggested ... that gun rights supporters could "do something" if Hillary Clinton becomes president and appoints liberal judges, or his repeated insistence on the falsehood that President Barack "Obama founded ISIS."
"Gaffe-by-gaffe, additional Republicans have come forward to say they're not supporting his bid, with Carlos Gutierrez, secretary of commerce under President George W. Bush, announcing his support for Clinton on Sunday. Meanwhile, GOP leaders in Washington and in the most competitive states have begun openly contemplating turning their backs on their party's presidential nominee and putting their money and effort instead behind the party's House and Senate candidates."
"You [media]could have covered what he [Trump] was saying, or you could try and take an aside and take the Clinton narrative and play it out. And you chose to do that instead," Manafort [Trump's campaign manager] said on CNN. Your complete correct Mr. Manafort. How clear the BAD MEDIA is!!!!!
"Trump suggested ... that gun rights supporters could "do something" if Hillary Clinton becomes president and appoints liberal judges, or his repeated insistence on the falsehood that President Barack "Obama founded ISIS."
This is again a "play-on-words-used" as Yahoo ALWAYS does to punish somebody it doesn't like. Trump responds as I had for years: "...If the disgusting and corrupt media covered me honestly and didn't put false meaning into the words ..." How many times have I said this? The Media is famous for this. Why? It sells its news on sensationalizing quips and content! This is common practice driven my the money grabbing Media who would rather capitalize on short-term monetary gains that consider the future of this country and morals of its people it is misleading AND leading!
Time and time again you'll get the grand-master-attention-grabber headline that in itself damages the underlying individuals within. They do this because FEW people read the content and use their minds to discern the truths. Thus, the majority of voters form their voting preference on HEADLINES and sensationalizing opinions rather than facts and common sense.
What did Trump really imply in his statement above? How about gun right supporters need to actively fight for their rights. Isn't that "doing something?" I may agree that Trump MISUSED a word "founded" in the latter part of his remark instead of "greatly attributed to growth and strengths of ISIS", meaning, OBlunder did everything possible to avoid conflict believing this world can be saved with words and fuzzy, cuddly actions instead of what he has found out and now "beginning" to realize that troops can NOT be removed from the Mideast and firmer actions, as we have see in Libya need to be performed. Still OBlunder is short on commonsense, action, and balls (except on the golf course).
Let's plow on through Yahoo's sermon (since they already devoted one paragraph on the real report and now have to summarize again all their ani news):
Old sensationalism! Why would a Republican Congressman want to add liberal judges to the Supreme Court? Simple. They rather have their own glory (win an upcoming LOCAL election) than support America as a whole, i.e., We the People! Is it greed, ego, or just plain stupidity! Are people blind to the fact that the Supreme Court, that should be anti-partisan is really partisan within? The Supreme Court is one of the triangle of elements that were designed by our Constitution to ensure on one power can control America! Yet is succumbs to the parties. Yes, it is broken and we can't expect the next president, especially Hillary, to fix that. Either president will add justices that are loyal to the his/her beliefs. However, I believe the majority of Americans believe that the Constitution is great as is and it can only remain so without all liberal justices destroying it! So, backers of the Yahoo comment above, all you STUPID greedy congressmen, kill your future to win a Milky Way today!
Yahoo Media does comment: " Frustratingly for Republicans, Trump's missteps have overshadowed difficult news for Clinton:he new release of 44 previously-unreleased email exchanges Clinton had while at the State Department. They became public on Tuesday and showed her interacting with lobbyists, political and Clinton Foundation donors and business interests while serving as secretary of state." Not the missteps, but the FACTS re Clinton are indeed paramount and should be PAID ATTENTION TO! But, what has MEDIA covered? Did the media NOT do an overload on anti-Trump bashing INSTEAD of delving into the details of Clinton's continuous CORRUPTION? Of course. Are they now trying to save fave by putting another PARAGRAPH into an alreay anti-Trump article to LOOK like they are non-partisan? Disgusting Yahoo!
So, PLEASE get past the HEADLINEs and read. News articles are BIAS. You need to read up and educate your self on the background. I feel terrible that we STILL DO NOT educate our youth on the economy and financial management. That alone would change the minds and thinking of the college and other 18-22 year olds to REALITY. You cannot depend on the government to provide hand outs from somebody else. TAXPAYERs are NOT your salvation -- YOU ARE ONE of them! The rich (upper 5%0 can give all their fortunes (100%) to the government and we will still be in dire straights with over $Trillion in debt and now they would be broke asking for food stamps and claiming disability. America was founded on WORKING people regardless of their disabilities. You worked to move ahead, you didn't get paid to stay behind!
My rant is over, but my hopes for those people you DON'T really know the issues are to learn something or DON'T vote. With the economy (here and global) still in the doldrums, slowest recovery from a recession ever, the terrorism still rampart, and not being handled effectively, the Constitution being ignored in lieu of executive orders, the wealth being distributed to keep the poor as slaves the the government (meaning making them believe their votes should always for the government), the lack of undefined and also unsupported immigration laws to ensure America's growth AND security, the unfortunate do-nothing Congress comprised of POLITICIAL-ONLY members who can only assure argument and prolonged mediocre actions, the poor leadership of this country ... and on and on and on. It IS time to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN. Although Trump was not my first choice, he and Pence could be our saviors. Hillary IS DEFINITELY NOT!
761. Windows 10 Passwords
I received the following question/issue re a problem with different passwords that can be implemented to get on your PC. Thought it may be useful to others:
Issue:
"several days ago I have the bad idea to buy a new PC and "upgrade to W10" ... I waste a lot of time making necessary changes ... I am totally frustrated by the fact that I need password to enter my desktop. "
Answer:
I'm not sure which password you are referring to control your use. Please refer to these and let me know if helpful:
1. BIOS PASSWORD (Optional...also referred to as PC Hardware Password ... use to ensure boots from USB Stick, CD, other devices cannot override
security the normal boot from hard drive … first password security available to you and is your PC Manufacturer’s way of securing your PC, not just W10 ). See
http://www.howtogeek.com/186235/how-to-secure-your-computer-with-a-bios-or-uefi-password/ . Also http://www.askvg.com/how-to-reset-remove-bypass-a-bios-or-cmos-password/
The above article explains how to reset BIOS password (Have NOT tried this). Usually to get to BIOS you press F2 when booting (depends on PC manufacturer) and that is where it gets set.
2. MICROSOFT Account Password: (Can be used as W10 SIGNIN password in lieu of the LOCAL ACCOUNT password to control getting to Windows 10 itself ... this follows any hardware password as described above). See
http://www.laptopmag.com/articles/change-password-windows-10
3. LOCAL ACCOUNT Password: (If you do not desire using your Microsoft password as described in 2 above, you can set this method to get to W10.). See
http://www.pcworld.com/article/3016405/windows/three-ways-to-fix-windows-10-password-problems.html
4. Automatically going directly into W10 when you turn on your PC WITHOUT any password. See
http://www.digitalcitizen.life/log-automatically-windows-7-without-typing-your-password
I have simply presented links to clarify the types of password or no password use. I have NOT confirmed or verified the content in these links. Hope this helps.
Followup after #3 LOCAL Password implemented successfully:
A warning for down the road: Now that you have a LOCAL password instead of using Microsoft Password you might run across something that will require the Microsoft password to execute, maybe a special update, or access to a Microsoft blog, etc. You'll get a popup of course asking for the Microsoft Password which you will probably enter if you remember it (KEEP IT Somewhere). I believe on that popup may be some "fine print", or maybe not, that tells you that your system password (Your PC password) will also be changed to the Microsoft Password when entered. Thus, net time you reboot your PC you'll be scratching your head again (not fleas like Sam got, i.e., my long departed lab Sam) and will have to give the MICROSOFT password AND go through this change again to get back to LOCAL password. Don't know if this still happens, but it did in Windows 10 early life. I haven't had it in last year or so. Have a nice day.

760. Trump lambastes Media
Good thing I'm not running for Pres or I'd be following Trump on the Media's hot iron too! Since 2011 I have been posting using the LABEL "Media" reporting the CONSTANT liberal, anti-conservative articles by the AP, Yahoo, etc. I am pleased to see it come out in public by an influential presidential candidate. I can fully understand his frustrations. The issue isn't just the way he has been reported by the press as he continues to repeat. The issue goes way beyond Trump and started as long as I can remember. Included in the press are the news journalists AND TV network reporters. My wife was watching CNN while exercising this this afternoon and they were, like always, stuck in beat up Trump mode instead of apologizing for the unfair reporting of the Veteran donation issue. On FOX, Judge Napalitano remarked that only 10%, let me put that in words too -- TEN PERCENT -- of Clinton's Trust ever gets in the hands of the ones needing it! TEN PERCENT!!! Trump handed over 100% of the donated $5.6M (today's amount) and shared the list of recipients of checks already cashed!
So, once again you liberal A-holes, shove your pens up your butts. But, like always, nothing will change since for every A-hole journalist, there are thousands of A-hole followers that also can't comprehend the damage these false reports and continuous maneuvers do to America and its people.
Bottom line message by Trump today:
1. He provided by check amount every Veteran organization he directed funds to
2. He vetted the organization that received the money beforehand
3. He provided 100% of the funds to the organizations that support Veterans
Trump is an unquestionably American Patriot and his anger at the media for attacking him is well justified. We don't need another "lets-everybody-share-and be nice-to-each-other" when you, or America, is being taken to the Veterans DESERVE much, much more than they get for giving their service and committing their lives to protect America. Veterans is just one issue on my "its-about-time-someone-acts list. Unequal FOREIGN TRADE is another, as are Supreme Justices who don't adhere to the LAW and Constitution and act based on politics.
Let's think about what is good for America and toss political bias this November!

759. I salute the Veteran's and mourn those lost
I want to thank all the veterans for their service. Mostly I want to thank the survivors of lost military personnel for their strength and love through the conflicts and their loved one's service. Regardless of the politics, we veterans committed to support America in whatever endeavors were asked of us. Even if we didn't support the politics of a war, we were always there for America and its people. We did our part and thus fulfilled just to serve the greatest country on earth. Shame on those who ran away from their obligation and opportunity to serve; shame on those who protest without a sense of what service means; shame on those who belittled and ridiculed the vets of some of the wars. I salute every military man and woman.

758. Yahoo is Anti-Capitalism, Anti-American !
I have already discovered that Yahoo news was Liberal, but now they shine a light on Capitalism being bad! It's all in the article heading (see article here ) ".Old-school American retail is getting crushed by capitalism." Knowing that most people are too lazy to read an article they indoctrinate them via their headings! This is how so many people get their news. They claim they just don't have time to read, so they rely on headings as facts! Really poor excuse for being lackadaisical? It's these kind of people who vote for presidents based on Media Headings -- the sensationalist words to capture their attention that they then assume is a highlight or summary of facts within an article. Some some companies, new and old, have taken advantage of technology and market indicators and have recognized that people, like the ones who just read headings, no longer want to spend a lot of time shopping, thus go ONLINE. Hence, online shopping is killing brick and mortar stores. Now read what Capitalism is and tell me how this is related. Sounds like Yahoo is on Bernie's bandwagon (Socialism)!
