MAIL FOLDERS

George Stair — 2013-06-12T19:21:10

I am getting a new IMac desktop computer.  On my current iMac desktop, I use Thunderbird for my email.  How can I save my Mail Folders & contents on my old iMac so that I have the same Mail Folders & contents on my new iMac using Thunderbird.  Please advise.

Re: מדוע בישראל לא מרוויחים

סניף ארה"ב - המכון לאבחון עסקי — 2013-05-24T17:20:03

 

 

שלום. בהמשך לחשיפת מחקרנו בערוץ 10 – 

94 אחוז מהעסקים בישראל לא מרוויחים מספיק

 

במהלך 13 השנים האחרונות, לאחר שבחנו מעל 12 אלף עסקים מכל הסוגים בישראל
ובארצות-הברית, גילינו שעסקים רבים בישראל יכולים היו לעמוד על רווחים כספיים
גבוהים בהרבה, אם לא מספר טעויות שנעשות על ידם.

 

בחג האחרון הוקצו מספר מושבים חינם לסדנא מתנה לבעלי העסקים בישראל, בה יפורטו
כל הטעויות שבגללן רוב בתי העסק בישראל לא מרוויחים מספיק.

 

המרצה הוא מחבר רב המכר "האם שווה להיות עצמאי?", יועץ בינלאומי בעל ניסיון
עצום בהגדלת רווחים של עסקים תוך זמן קצר.

 

הסדנא תתקיים ביום שני, 3 לי

That Xbox One Reveal Sure Was A Disaster, Huh?

Mandatory Kinect usage is also a little disturbing. The camera is 
listening out for you even when it's "off" (it's never really off), and 
while Microsoft has issued a statement saying it has "strong privacy 
protections" in place, people are still rightly concerned that a machine 
-connected to the internet and featuring a camera which is always 
listening - might be a problem.

Regrettably, it looks like clueless, out-of-touch Microsoft has another

Are Current Web Design Trends Pushing Us Back to 1999?

It’s been understood for years now that putting a odometer-style hit 
counter on a web page is (to put it bluntly) pretty lame. No 
self-respecting web developer today would even consider doing such a 
thing, even if a client demanded it. I can tell you right now if any 
client told me to put one of those on their site, I’d kindly refuse even 
if it meant losing the client. Some things are just not worth the money.

Today, we see a similar trend: a website’s total number of Twitter 
followers and/or RSS subscribers proudly displayed in a sidebar or 
website header for all to see.

The Twitter buttons below are from Twitter Counter and are just one of 
many customizable examples of Twitter count widgets out in the wild.

Beauregard T. Shagnasty — 2013-05-22T12:23:28


No, I'm not saying that.  :-)  It's just a matter of interpretation.


As Ron says, I interpret 6 to be the same as 6, and 7 as "more than six." 
If I was making $105,295, I would say I'm "making more than *5* figures." 
Or more correctly, "making six figures."

I suppose we've beat this horse to death now though.   ;-)

Re: Make $30 an hour (Just don't use SM Composer)

Ron Hunter — 2013-05-22T07:12:59

Humm.  Is 6 more than 6?  What is more than 6?  Seems to me that more 
than 6 figures would be at least 7 figures.  A 'six figure income' is 
between 100,000 and 999,999.

Re: Make $30 an hour (Just don't use SM Composer)

WaltS — 2013-05-22T02:17:13

I guess I don't know how to read.

I would interpret more than six figures to be $100,000 to $999,999. If 
he reported he was making more than seven figures, then it would be over 
$1,000,000. Write?

Re: Make $30 an hour (Just don't use SM Composer)

Beauregard T. Shagnasty — 2013-05-22T02:13:32


You are correct. (as was I)

"and now, at age 25, he's earning *more than six figures*." -- which would 
be $1,000,000 or more. I think that is a dubious claim. It's most likely a 
misunderstanding by the reporter. The person *might* be earning more than 
$100,000, and if so the writer thinks more than that is "more than six 
figures."

Modern reporters don't know how to write.

You disagree with a little fun? Or pointing out the zillions of errors in 
today's electronic news reporting? When was the last time you read a news 
article that did not have at least some kind of error in it? Spelling, 
grammatical, homophobes, missing words...

Since you didn't read the article at first, why were you questioning my 
post?


Making a million dollars? Common sense, and a close familiarity with the 
industry, in which I am involved.

Re: Make $30 an hour (Just don't use SM Composer)

WaltS — 2013-05-21T18:23:30

OK. Didn't read the caption, or the other. Which you seem to have taken 
out of context, and rearranged to your liking. Not a Fox reporter are you?

So at 18 he started making around $65,000 a year.

Why can't he be making more than six figures seven years later?

It is the caption under the lead photo. It does repeat the error later in 
the content as well:  "...and now, at age 25, he's earning more than six 
figures."

"<person> dropped out of college and taught himself to code. He's now 
pulling in more than six figures a year." Heh, that would be *seven* 
figures, right? A million or more? $62,500 is not "more than six figures." 
I figure <pun intended> that if the author doesn't know the difference, 
the rest of the article is just as suspect.
 

Pah. When a book is published, it is already out of date. Use online 
resources instead.
