This is just unspeakably good Engrish. You're welcome.

Alain Jourdier

Passionate about marketing & communications strategy. You've got to know where the map is before starting the journey.

"Give a man a mask and he'll tell you the truth" said Oscar Wilde,
But in the digital age, is it more like "Give a man or woman the
Internet and he/she will tell you the truth?" What do you think?

Does the Internet have a "truthiness" factor or is it simply another
soap box? Does it really free us and our customers to be more
transparent, to figure what is solid and what is not? Or does it simply
reinforce what we already believe? Are marketers taking advantage of
the "truth" our clients tell us or are we simply armadillos who roll
into a ball and deny what's going on?

What ever happened to Monster

Just looked at public relations jobs on Monster. Not a one is from a solid company. More like personnel firms.

Where can someone go to search for a PR job besides the professional organizations and indeed.com?

What do you use when listing?

***

I could be wrong about this -- there are gaps in my comic book
collection -- but I believe the Killer Tomatoes took out Monster in
Vol. XII, No. 37 of Amazing Stories. It might've been the Blob, though.

What is the Illuminati and are thier messages the truth?

You don't want to go around inquiring about the Illuminati, my young friend. Many a good man has driven himself insane in the pursuit of the answers you seek. I offer instead the words of Hassan i Sabbah, founder of the Hashishim. "Nothing is true. Everything is permissible."

Phil Lauro

Your now in charge. What would you censor on LinkedIn?

Pointless, stupid, shoot-the-breeze-and-fritter-away-the-workday
questions, such as this one. Also, questions best answered by, say, Dr.
Laura Schlessinger or one's own minister, priest, rabbi, guru, swami,
roshi, shaman (did I miss any of 'em?) or less than one half milligram
of Common Goddamned Sense.





Also, every question with the word "green" in its title, unless they're talking about Crayolas.





You're welcome.

Network usage while no programs are running? Why?

I have observed that over say a dialup connection, even when no
programs are running (email, browser, etc.), there is a lot of traffic
going in and out of the PC (you can see the Bytes Sent/Received just
adding up, to several MB/day even). Why is this happening and is there
a way to stop it and ensure that bandwidth is used only by relevant
programs?




The background of the question is to restrict bandwidth usage for
PCs connected with a modem to an ISP (i.e. no LAN) only to essential
programs so that bandwidth usage does not run up (and charges with it).





Also, is there a utility that I can use to see who/what is actually using how much bandwidth?





Thanks

What you have observed is a perfectly normal phenomenon.





You didn't *really* think you could stop the troll who lives under the network from eating and sleeping, did you?
