    Late Stage Capitalism?

    This level of wankiness reminds me of a conversation I had with our satellite tv supplier (Sky, better know as 'Bunch of thieving *****) some years ago. They had a subscription for giving you HD picture quality which essentially meant that if you gave them money, they would get the box to stop...

    Textbox created in a different position depending on monitor

    OK this one is baffling me. I have a Gantt chart workbook that adds a textbox to a worksheet and its top/left position is offset from where the first coloured square of the project is created. (-9 columns and -2 rows) Set TB_Range = MySheet.Range(Cells(StartRow - TBOffset, StCol - 9)...

    Well they did release a new album last year (first in 25 years!) so they're obviously making a comeback. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLx5jlt2yynkBd030WeAChCDMRvYp2ML3

    Finally got to see this (English) band live in concert last November in NZ, though I've been a fan since the 80's. Crazy to think this song which was released in 1988 seems more relevant today than back then..

    Solved Trying to get vertical lines that stay in the correct position.

    I got it to work by: --> right clicking on the date series on the chart --> select Format Axis --> Axis Options --> Axis Type: Change to Date Axis.

    Censored!

    Seriously, what is happening to your country..? Surely there is a breaking point soon, where you gather in masses and storm the parliament..

    Amazon as a retailer in non-US countries

    I tend to use it only for CDs as the selection in NZ is a bit limited and I guess my musical tastes aren't mainstream enough. It works for me, though sometimes the delivery may take 3 weeks, other times 3 months.

    Interesting artical about what government can and can't do. It's a bit longish, but worth the read.

    Couldn't agree more. Unfortunately in NZ for the last 10 years or so we have had a massive shift away from this thinking. The previous government thought that because certain sections of society fare poorly in loads of statistics, i.e. prison representation, health, dependance on welfare...

    5 Aluminum discs on the Espresso Maker Base?

    I think these are first sand cast, so they are probably the sprue marks remaining after then machine flat in a lathe.

    So we've had some lounge music, how about something for the classical music fans maybe..? Wiki: "Written (and arranged) by lead vocalist, guitarist and pianist Matthew Bellamy over the course of a number of years, the piece is presented as a symphony in three movements entitled "Overture"...

    Never heard of the guy. Wikipedia states he was on American Idol which is the type of program I avoid like the plague Makes me think of a Mumford and Sons / Coldplay mashup.... Good referencing in the lyrics though when he sang "Van Halen turned into Van Hagar" I thought he said '"vinegar"...

    Hmm yeah I didn't think that the Kiss song was on that series so not so sure where to go from here. I can't think of any other series I've seen that has some of those tracks. Might be a puzzle for someone more local maybe...

    My first thought is that they've all been in The Sopranos... but that is a guess and I don't really know. Will have to give more thought...
