Yay Mists of Pandaria, Im kind of excited that they finally got pandas into the game like theyve always wanted to. Alot of people are crying like babies about it tho " Pandas dont belong in the game" Um hi...kids its a freeking fantasy game or they say "Oh great they are copying kung fu panda becasue they have no new ideas" Pandas have been part of WoW lore since forever and they were never able to use them as a race before because it would have offended china because they have a HUGE customer base there I guess they have worked it out wince then because they are now Not only that there hasnt been a new race that hasnt already existed in the game since The Burning Crus…

Had to share this with you all as Liz Jones shared it with me and it is spot on!! Available on Android, Blackberry and Apple.. The App is - I Map My Walk I have been using it for a few days now and switch it on each time i go off out with Kodi. It logs time taken, miles, elevation... It is great to see how far you are actually walking and very accurate. All you do is open the app as you are about to start your walk, press the start button, put it back in your pocket until you get home and then press stop/finish. Then I just found out today that you can log onto the website, compare your stats with friends and set targets... …

Hi Guys, We've got an application that's using an XML file for config, and we're having some problems calling the 64bit ODBC. Comes back with string length errors. Spoke to some people from the company via Email, and the only response was that we need to use the 'native database driver' rather than the jdbc-odbc bridge, but no example came back! So my question is how do I call the native database driver? Here's the slice from the XML file: <database> <driver>sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver</driver> <url>jdbc:odbc:ClientDatabase</url> <user&g…
