alwingate, PLEASE stop using ALL CAPS.  If you think reading characters with no pinyin is annoying, reading 30 paragraphs of your babble in ALL CAPS is about 47 times more annoying.

Has anyone noticed fewer overall posts in the last couple of weeks?  It's sad that a few users are ruining things for everyone else.

Cool photo of Sydney Harbour Bridge.

 

A light show is being staged to mark this week's Fifa Congress meeting in Sydney. The images of international football legends are the largest projections ever cast onto the bridge.

Hey Light, have you seen it this week?

man2toe, did you try a search for food?  The search shows 9 lessons, but I know there are quite a few more than that.

You can see the photos?  I can't see them here.  All I see is a lot of blank white space where the photos should be.  Very strange.

I'm going to try a different browser....

Strange...I can see the photos in Safari, but not Firefox or Netscape.  Another glitch I suppose.

Hi Walt.  Do you need a password to access your photos at www.eng.utoledo.edu\~wolson?  I tried a couple ways to access the photos, in a separate browser, but had no luck.  It says the server can't be found.

Hey RJ, how was the trip to China?  Got any photos, or good stories, to share?

Great action shot!  Love that you caught him mid-air, and the netting in the background makes for a nice graphic.

 

Regarding the link, if you wanted the image to show within your comment, do the following:

1.  Within flickr, right-click the photo of Josh.

2.  Click "Copy Image Location" (which is http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2086/2534721050_65a170dabb.jpg?v=0)

3.  Use the "Insert/edit Image" tool in the comment box (it's the second from the right).

4.  Enter the image URL (from step 2) and any other info...

Joshua to the hoop!

Also, to add to Auntie's comment, if you rollover 家 with Pera-kun or look it up on MDBG, it defines it as "furniture, tool."  Pretty valid question.
