, , ,

I've been searching about good manners. I'm enjoying writing this post. Thus if you don't like... Don't comment please

In Teresa's as in a certain country whom language I love, I have a reputation for being polite and appreciating good manners.

You can have fun here in many different posted scenarios, getting them to practise what to do and what not to do here. If you remain clean, friendly you're welcome...

I've stated good manners and general rules in my sticky post and its comments. Now I'm going to transcribe some general rules I seem very useful also; for loving British manner if apply I'm going to establish them as a rule.


How to greet people

General rules
~ Say hello if you walks into the 'room-post' to be polite

~ Don’t kiss people on their cheeks like they do in France -at least you were Spanish speaker people (That's nothing to us)

~ In general in UK they say hello without hugging or shaking hands unless they are very close friends we haven’t seen for a long time (hug) or someone very important (shake hands).


Saying please and thank you

General rules
~ You can never say thank you too many times
~ Always say please if you ask for something


Opening the door…

General rules
~ Don’t barge past someone
~ Say ‘Excuse me’ if you want to get past someone
~ Say ‘Sorry’ if you bump into someone, even if it’s their fault.
~ Do not jump the queue

Here as in everywhere, you will find most people are kinder to you if you behave politely, respecting local people (my friends I mean) and customs. You may sometimes upset people (me I mean) by things that you say or do, even if these things seem perfectly normal in your own culture.

SMALL TALK

When you first meet someone it can be difficult to know how to start a conversation, especially if your first language is not English.

Which topics are safe for small talk?

- Introductions, eg "Hello. May I introduce myself? My name is -----"
- Travel, eg "Did you manage to find here OK?" or "Did you have a good journey?"
- Family, eg "How is your family?" (but only if you already know about the person's family)
- Hospitality, eg "Can I get you something to eat or drink?"
- The weather, eg "It's a lovely day today, isn't it?"
- Holidays, eg "Are you going anywhere this weekend?" or "Are you going anywhere on holiday this year?"
- Nature, eg "The garden looks lovely, doesn't it?"
- Pets, eg "What a lovely dog. What is his name?" (British people -me too, love dogs or cats)
- General news, eg "What do you think about the recent floods?" (but safer to avoid gossip and politics)
- Films, eg "Have you seen the film Bridget Jones's Diary?"
- Television, eg "Did you see The X Factor last night?"
- Music, eg "What sort of music do you like?"
- Books, eg "Have you read any good books recently?" (but only if you know the person likes reading)
- Sport, eg "Have you been watching Wimbledon?" (note that many British people, especially men, enjoy talking about football)
- Hobbies, eg "What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?"
- Business, eg "How's your business going?" (but only ask if you know the person has a business)
- Studies, eg "What are you studying?" (but only ask if you know the person is a student)
- Work, eg "What sort of work do you do?"
- Food, eg "I had a lovely Chinese meal last night - do you like Chinese food?"
- General matters about the person you are talking to, eg "Have you lived in this area long?"
- General matters on subjects that you know that interests the person you are talking to, eg cars, film stars etc

Which topics are best avoided for small talk?

You may need to be careful when you talk about some topics, especially with people that you've only just met, people who are older than you, people who appear to have strong religious or political views, or people who may have some personal problems or sensitivities. For example, be cautious if you discuss these subjects:

- Age, eg "How old are you?"
- Appearance or weight, eg "You seem to have put on some weight"
- Personal gossip about somebody you know
- Jokes that might offend (especially sexist or racist jokes)
- Money, eg "How much do you earn?"
- Sex (some people have strong religious views about this, or are embarrassed by the subject)
- Previous or current relationships, eg "Do you have a girlfriend?"
- Politics, eg "Who did you vote for at the last election?"
- Religion, eg "Do you believe in God?"
- Criticisms or complaints, eg "Why is British food so bad?"

Teresa, what version of avast Anti-Virus do you have?
The latest version is 6.0.1289
I was thinking maybe you're still using one of the avast 5.0 versions since your Warning / Alert looks different than mine. In the Pic you posted, your computer's avast popped up that narrow Blue & Yellow horizontal Alert, which I had seen in earlier avast versions. My avast Alert was an actual full-fledged Popup similar to the ones after the daily Virus Definitions Updates, except a different color.

To see which version you have, Right Click on the avast Icon in the System Tray. Then bring up the GUI and look in there to see what version you have.

I think I don't go to catch any virus if avoiding download anything from that doubt site (that's for me a .tmp only). However it's just my guess I reckon it. Everyone'd want to decide if exposition to such a risk is worthy bigsmile

It depends on several factors. The risk is higher if you use I.E. than FireFox or Opera. But by turning Javascript off, you eliminate 90% of the risk! (but not all of it)
Since people write virus' for Windows, using an alternative operating system can eliminate the risk completely! whistlep.

Suntana Wednesday, September 14, 2011 5:13:37 PM

I wouldn't necessarily go to a doctor immediately after visiting someone in the hospital. But, I sure would wash my hands with Anti-bacterial Gel. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Yahoo.gif - http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Yes.gif - Then once I got home, I'd take a 30-minute shower with Anti-bacterial Soap. headbang http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/BigGrin.gif -

The precarious keywords you use in your previous comment are "think" and "guess." I'd hate to leave my computer's status up to throwing the dice and assuming / guessing there was no risk hanging out in a site that avast has already given you the heads up that it is infected.

True, there are False Positives with any Anti-Virus, but in this case, I'll heed avast's warning.

Contrariwise, the first and unique time I've done that it was once I was trying to put in it Linux. I spoiled my machine's Master Boot Record indeed. sad

badkitty1967 Wednesday, September 14, 2011 5:30:05 PM

I've been thinking. Could you use the number code for a song you like off youtube?

Its a combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. And you have a back up if you forget it. Just search that song on youtube to get the code.

As long as no-one finds out what the song is, you should be golden!

Also it wouldn't be much bother to switch songs regularly. Just to be safe.

What do you guys think?idea

Mad Scientist (عادل)qlue Wednesday, September 14, 2011 5:52:24 PM

The song code idea sounds good except that you may have difficulty finding the exact same video six months later. (and Google may change the codes)
I'd recommend using two codes from different videos. Or adding some other letters or numbers to it that make it unique. up.

Pero la cosa es, Teresa, que no tienes que andar en dudosos sitios para que tu computadora sea infectada. Nomás con que vayas a un sitio legítimo que algún maloso Hacker infectó ... ZAZ! Por ejemplo, pudieras andar en sitios como el de Dr. Seuss, Sesame Street, Mickey Mouse, Etc. que por lo normal se consideran sitios que están SAFE. Pero si un Hacker fué y los infectó, se convierten a un riesgo crítico como si anduvieras en uno de esos dudosos sitios mencionados.

Me sorprende mi sobrino mayor. Tanto sabe de computadoras, pero Ahhh! No usa Anti-Virus porque no cree en ellos. Dice que el piensa que es una conspiración. El piensa que las mismas companias que hacen los Anti-Virus son los que hacen los Viruses. Y luego dice, "Besides, I don't hang around in Porn sites or other dangerous sites." rolleyes

Luego dice, "I have been operating my Laptop for years without an Anti-Virus and it hasn't been infected yet." ¿Como sabe? ¿Si le entra un Virus a su computadora, como va a saber? ¿Quien o que le va a decir que ya le entró un Virus a su computadora? Si no tiene Anti-Virus, claro que NADA le va a informar que ya su computadora está infectada. La única manera que pueda sospechar que ya está infectada su computadora es si es un Virus de esos mas fuertes que hacen mas daño y empieza su computadora a verdaderamente funcionar pa' la fregada. scared

zrafatdjmd1 Wednesday, September 14, 2011 8:07:09 PM

Ah! Si Sunny... yo conozco gente así. Pero creo que no es mi caso. No soy terca: mira ya les leí que mi password es un fracaso lol ya voy y lo cambio. Y ya voy y escaneo mi máquina. Pero supongo también que es como el Sida, eh? no está en el aire. Si tu no tienes contacto no te infectas. Supongo así, pero claro que siempre hay el riesgo. El espíritu santo no nos va a proteger así no más. Hay que prevenir, hacer mantenimiento, tener cuidado y pues a veces arriesgarse... para eso inventaron la opción de restaurar sistema y en los casos más graves formatear el equipo. smile

Y tengo un antivirus, actualizado (de hecho la española me acaba de decir que la base de datos de virus ha sido actualizada, jejeje!) Los antivirus no funcionan si no estás constantemente conectado a la red. Ves, sé lo de los sitios de buena reputación... y lo de los motores y programas de descarga. Trato de no descargar nada que no tenga cierto respaldo y si lo hago lo hago consciente del riesgo.

Pero ahí tengo un sistema de defensa para las imágenes por ejemplo: el sistema se congela cuando la imagen es dudosa, un lío pero mejor así smile

¿Bueno, algún otro consejo o advertencia amigo?: son bien recibidos y te lo agradezco -a todos se lo agradezco en verdad! heart

Pues, nomás otra vez que estés segura que si tienes la mas reciente versión de avast que viene siendo 6.0.1289

And regarding the Attachment on that comment?
Ohhh, so THAT's what that was.
No, I didn't get a chance to listen to it. I didn't even download it. My first thought was that it was your Voice Clip. But, then I noticed the strange extension. I went, "What the heck is that? A PowerPoint Presentation?" What format IS that? Wasn't it something like "pptx?"

zrafatdjmd1 Wednesday, September 14, 2011 10:04:55 PM

Ah... my anti-virus version is certainly a viejita lol I have to download that you're suggesting me.

OTOH don't you know that PowerPoin extension Sunny, please!!! PowerPoint shows have a file extension of .pps, (or .ppsx) Just downloading and when open... choice that prog appl. Easy! 419kb only bigsmile

I hate to tell you this, Teresa, but I'm NOT using CSS Code in my Comments. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Stop.gif -
In fact, if there's one thing I am using ... it is HTML Code. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Yes.gif - The 2nd Heads Up is that actually, YOU are the one who is NOT using HTML Code. You're using BBCode.

I prefer HTML Code over BBCode although they're similar.
Besides, I didn't want "DarkRed."
I wanted specifically #C20201 Red. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Cool2.gif -

You might not remember, Teresa, but I'm virtually certain we had this conversation before. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/BigGrin.gif -

I guess I like the LOOK and organization of HTML Code better over BBCode. Just a preference. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Victory.gif -

zrafatdjmd1 Wednesday, September 14, 2011 11:08:45 PM

Ah... it´s true lol I was totally confusing their names...

But you don't need hate that... But maybe it's other stupidity of my part but I think CCS code uses < > signs and BB Code uses square brackets instead. I'm stupid only... What a mess! scared

Anyways, my brain's having so much enjoyment with all of this! bigsmile

Today I also had an online English class but I've lost it for being a distracted one! cry

Finally, all of those codes are a mess to me! lol

_________________
I don't want that numbered label... don't really work in all of browsers Sunny

Suntana Wednesday, September 14, 2011 11:40:41 PM

CSS Code is neither for Comments nor for Posts.
CSS Code only goes way over in our Blogs' CSS Boxes.

Anyway, you lost me again, Teresa.
What numbered label are you talking about?

zrafatdjmd1 Thursday, September 15, 2011 12:19:30 AM

Hehe... have I lost you? What a privilege! p

Colour, Sunny... colour mark, label, task label or whatever name you have for it scared

Originally posted by Suntana:

I'm talking about those Colour names in task labels thus I name those color codes: #C20201 for instance p

Anyways, you are using those < > signs in your comments. Which does category they belong to?

I don't like to use them for when I do... it makes everything crazy in the comment obliging me to use more < > signs and other codes as p, br, etc.

Originally posted by Suntana:

Huh! Well not exactly the same one but resembled p

Why does Opera use brackets in its labels instead of < > signs, you know it? For instance in quoting...

I have those stupid questions that are so stupid but I don't find who answer them. Are they so?

It looks like a puzzle you know a 'rompecabezas'... you need to put every tiny piece in its fair site. All the tiny pieces must fit, join together in order to form the whole objet. I think the same with any knowledge, computing coding or programming in our specific case.

I need all of those tiny pieces... do you feel me now?


Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 2:52:15 AM

Ohhhhh, THAT!
That isn't any label. That is a Hexadecimal Color Code
Remember I tried to teach you how it worked, what each of the 6 characters was for? I think you set aside my Chucktorial / Tutorial on that and never went back to it.

As to what category they belong in with the Less Than / Greater Than symbols? Again, I'm just using HTML Code. We have only 2 choices in the Comment Boxes ... BBCode or HTML Code. And as I mentioned before, I prefer HTML Code.

If I used the Square Brackets, then that'd be BBCode.
Yes, MyOpera IS using BBCode in the Quotes instead of HTML Code. Why? That's their preference. They have their reasons.

zrafatdjmd1 Thursday, September 15, 2011 3:37:12 AM

Originally posted by Suntana:

Certainly you did it. I do know how that works but it isn't the case. That's not working everywhere. Some times it's a true waste of time choosing a colour and then when you publish your work the browser doesn't support it sad

That's with Hexadecimal Color Code. I prefer BB code then for to me it's easier. See?

I think Opera uses BBCode for the same reason I do: when you uses that < > ones all of that turn into a real mess!

Anyways thanks Sunny. My stupid questions oddly match very well with your response. Thanks.

Please no te fastidies with my insistence for I'm learning for sure.

Mad Scientist (عادل)qlue Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:45:01 AM

My Opera uses BB code for two reasons. First, because it all started of as a forum and BB code is that standard for forums. And second, because html can be misused by bad people. In fact, some html has been blocked to prevent page hijacking. up.

Mad Scientist (عادل)qlue Thursday, September 15, 2011 7:48:25 AM

Using html it is possible to make a web page do all kinds of nasty things from injecting virus' to spam! So the more powerful html codes are usually blocked in a forum like this to prevent malicious misuse of the site! up.
BB code is controlled by the server, so the My Opera developers have strict control over what it does or does not do. up.
Javascript is even more heavily blocked here, which is not surprising since Javascript is even more powerful and can be used to alter the base html of the site to do anything from redirecting your visters to a porn site to uploading spyware and virus' directly to a computer! scared.

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 3:35:09 PM

Yeah, I do remember that unfortunately the Hexadecimal Color Codes used in HTML Code don't work on all Browsers. That's because Opera Rules and other Browsers Sssss ... left right Uhhh, that is to say, other Browsers Bite and are inferior and awesomeness-challenged.

Other Browsers need to go to the University of Opera to learn how to interpret Hexadecimal Color Codes and display them when I shove them down their throat. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/LOL2.gif -

I believe I recall that Firefox could NOT interpret the Hexadecimal Color Codes. But, I don't know about Chrome. I have only very VERY rarely messed around with Chrome. I take it Chrome doesn't interpret the Hexadecimal Color Codes either?

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 3:43:17 PM

Actually, Teresa, I did sort of know about the HTML danger that Aadil mentions, but I didn't want to freak you out. I didn't want you to go, "Okay, that DOES it! Sunny, you and your nefarious, criminal, riffraff HTML Code get OUT of my Blog!" scared

Last year MyOpera actually temporarily disabled our ability to use any HTML Code in Comment Boxes because some Blogs HAD been hacked and Blog Designs messed around with. There had been rumors that they'd never bring back HTML capability. I did then use BBCode for a little bit. But, then MyOpera brought back the HTML Code capability for the Comment Boxes.

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 3:45:32 PM

Besides, Teresa, you are intrepid. Eres intrépida.
You made it clear yesterday that you do NOT fear Computer Viruses. You laugh in their face. So, a little bit of mischievous HTML Code in your Comment Boxes shouldn't be a problem. http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/Whistle.gif -

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:16:28 PM

So ... Chrome doesn't display your Blog's Background?
Then again, you're using that ZOOM function, aren't you?
I can tell because even the Opera one doesn't look normal.
You know ... as in where the heck is the Sidebar in the Opera one?

Anyway, Teresa, that still didn't answer my question.
FYI ... I did NOT use a Hexadecimal Color Code in the HTML Code for that Red "Opera Rules." I simply specified "red" this time around.

So, my questions is again ... DOES Chrome interpret Hexadecimal Color Codes correctly?

It's true Charlie. The HTML is NOT the prob... it's me realley.

HTML Codes has an sticted order like a sintax I think. If you don't respecting it, everything goes really bad.

When I want to change just the format of a solo word... pufff!!! I myself turn in a mess! scared sad

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:29:23 PM

But, but ... but, didn't you just finish an entire class on HTML? http://files.myopera.com/Tamil/Smilies/BigGrin2.gif - And didn't you use HTML Code in your Sticky Post?

The thing is, Teresa, it's NOT just HTML Code on which you have to be very careful and detailed with the syntax. That goes for any kind of Programming / Coding be it HTML Code, CSS Code, BBCode, BASIC, MSDOS, Etc. One micro wrong move with just a Colon, Semi-Colon, Slash, Quotation Marks, Period, Comma, Etc. and BAMM! Your project won't work as intended, if it even works at all.

Bottom line, Teresa, there doesn't have to be a problem.
If BBCode works great for you and is easy for you, just stick with BBCode.

It's like with Photoshop and GIMP having very similar capabilities and uses. People have their preference between the 2 Apps. I definitely prefer Photoshop and other people definitely prefer GIMP. We stick with what WE prefer.

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:32:33 PM

#C20201 Red Hexadecimal Color Code Test

There you go, Teresa.
Feed that to Chrome.

zrafatdjmd1 Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:44:00 PM

Stupidity from me (jejeje... not from you of course!)

Please publish a pic from your OWN screen Carlos. How I go to see how different looks that code from your computer and mine... XD! For the sake of whoever!!!

Do you want to see how Chrome works with HTML Code... huh?

_____________
Excuse me Sunny... time to lunch. I have to attend an invitation. Sorry! Later...


Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:50:15 PM

What I want to see is if Chrome will display the color correctly in that "#C20201 Hexadecimal Color Code Test" in my previous Comment. I used a Hexadecimal Color in the HTML Code in that Comment. If Chrome can interpret the Code correctly, then we SHOULD be able to see the big letters in that #C20201 shade of Red. If on the other hand Chrome cannot interpret the Hexadecimal Color Code correctly, then the letters will probably be BLACK.

Suntana Thursday, September 15, 2011 4:59:20 PM

Putting up a Screen Cap of my screen is NOT necessary.
I use Opera. Therefore, the Hexadecimal Color Codes in HTML Code in the Comment Boxes is of course interpreted correctly.

This really should be easy to figure out.
YOU brought the subject up. So, when you said that you didn't like the Hexadecimal Color Codes because they didn't work on all Browsers ... I figured you already knew on which particular Browsers the Hexadecimal Color Codes don't work.

I know they didn't used to work on Firefox, but that was many versions ago. I can't say for sure whether the latest Firefox versions do interpret the Hexadecimal Color Codes correctly. I'll try it out later today.

How many machines you get usually, huh? I do use about 18 just in my office. Moreover I get access to other ones in different places. I don't like when my posts are displayed so plain.

But really my prob is with the sintax for I'm very distracted I reckon it bigsmile

Ahhh, Okay, so then it looks like Chrome does interpret the Hexadecimal Color Codes in HTML correctly. Then I guess it is only Firefox that is the underachieving Flunky who cannot interpret the Hexadecimal Color Codes correctly. Is that correct, Teresa? Is Firefox then the Browser whom you meant when you said that the Hexadecimal Color Codes did not work on all Browsers?

I have Firefox Portable on my Flash Drive.
I want to go test it pero, Aiyyyy, me da tanta flojera because Firefox is sooo slow for me.
