New Jack's Vlog with Updates on me

And who knows, maybe some bonus footage will appear too...

First Vlog with a Wireless Microphone. (only have it for the weekend though)

I didn't know this until now...

Well, it seems my TV instructors might be the social bunch!

My BCIT TV Instructors that do the video sides of things have their own Twitter accounts!

Follow @davegtv and @john_a_mills on Twitter for the thoughts of my instructors and how they keep up from day to day.

The old HP AMD Laptop is now half-dea...Nope, just fixed it.

Why, you might ask?

*The Internet Explorer is 95% broken

*The XP Search Companion is gone

*The Extended Services window is corrupt with nothing on it

*Installing Windows Script 5.6 ALWAYS produces an error about a DLL I will name below this list

*System Restore is gone

*HTML Help is gone

*I have -1KB images in Internet Explorer

The apparent solution? "regsvr32 jscript.dll" (and for my case, scrrun.dll also needs to be dealt with)

Except, everytime I do that I ALWAYS GET 0x8000405 errors

This is possibly an unfixable other than re-installing windows situation.

And now, I'm sad to say that my Laptop's Internet Explorer is now a Zombie.

Update: After doing a permissions check and fix on the registry using secedit, I think I might have fixed it! Windows Search companion is now showing up, and all the rest are all starting to show up as well, along with IE!

So just remember kids, if you encounter the 0x8000405 errors, check your registry permissions and reset them with something such as secedit or manually using regedit and RegMon (or Process Monitor as it is now called).

New drawing possibly in the works...

It's a TF2 based drawing, and if you saw one of my tweets, you probably know already.

It's "Spy's Sappin' my VT5".

Very uncertain on when to start work on it, as I'm super busy right now.

Ok, now it's getting stressful.

From not knowing about a test until the day it happens, to mid-terms for a class and a test for a class that requires jotting notes at lightning fast speed. Yes, it's starting to get stressful.

Again, I apologize for all this negative news, but it's pretty much all I can report for now on the personal blog.

By the way, as a clear note, this is NOT my BUSA 1620 blog, it's my PERSONAL blog. The BUSA 1620 is hidden to everyone except Charlotte (our BUSA 1620 instructor).

Colleen Kelly, I apologize.

I might have overstepped my Tweeting and IRCing limits to the point where you felt uncomfortable, compounded by the fact you were in a high-pressure situation of a broken Newtek VT5 machine today.

To that, I'm terribly sorry if any discomfort has arisen from my recent tweets and IRC chat blubs.

I just wanted to help, but I guess it came out all wrong.

If you saw the Twitter updates on the right, you know what happened: 6 Tweets (Edit: No, scratch that, 8 Tweets) about her in 1 day, that's too much.

Wondering where one of my elements on the right went?

Unfortunately, according to http://busa1620-2009.blogspot.com/, I cannot share my profile details anymore.

This is all in check to get together a professional blog.

But, my DeviantArt and FurAffinity still have that profile info you crave.

Facebook hack/spam actually hurts families

No, really, that's true. In another NOWHERE ON THE WEB story that aired on CTV News today, a family in Nova Scotia is disgusted when a hacker/spammer made a spam wall post on a dead loved one's Facebook page.

If you used Facebook, you know your account has been compromised when you are making wall posts that you never made such as stuff about colon cleansers. This is exactly what happened.

The specific example for this story is here: http://countermeasures.trendmicro.eu/facebook-colon-cleansing-spam-via-mobile-web/

In detail, the family in Nova Scotia had someone close to them lose a fight against something lethal in January. The family expected only wall post comments from friends in show of sympathy for her passing. Then, on October 3rd, they saw she made a new wall post. The family at first is stunned on how she could post a new wall post after being deceased, but then realizes it's hacker spam. At current, the comments below this post show disgust on how a deceased person's account can be taken advantage of to be spammed on. The family is also disgusted and expressed that in the news story I saw that came from one of the CTV Nova Scotia affiliates. (They have no website, hence, the story is NOT on the net)

This shows how phishing and hacking/spamming is never caring of if a account belongs to a dead person or not. The ramifications truly are more severe when the spam is applied to a dead person, since serious emotional consequences can be made.

Update: The story just re-aired on CTV National News and I've located a article on the net about this just by Googling the person in question's name: http://www.trurodaily.com/index.cfm?sid=293716&sc=68

Guess it isn't nowhere on the net.

First blog post on the net about the Superfan BC Lions Flag Waver

Before this post, this was NOT IN A SINGLE WEB PAGE ON THE INTERNET (at least, according to Google)

Remember the "Super" BC Lions fan that waved his flag proudly and then, without reason, security confiscated his flag? No? Then I can say that it was a news story on Global BC a while back.

We now know from the management that the flag was blocking an advertisement but the fan does suspect there was other motives. He's also confused on why he was picked on when there are so many other flag wavers in the stadium that night.

The abuse that the guards put on this fan was acknowledged by the management though and they apologized. That was caught on cell phone video but again, it is NOWHERE on the web, it was only played during the news story that aired on Global BC.

This was a TRUE Superfan of the Lions. He had memoirs of the BC Lions, shirts, and all that sports memorabilia. BUT, after this incident, his faith in the Lions will never be the same.

I bring this up because the exact same thing has happened WAY TOO MANY TIMES for me. The most recent being SPY. So if you're a Superfan, ABANDON IT while you can!

Sorry for the primarily negative news on this blog but...

It might just get worse with this post (And this post is not about me, I'm doing fine right now)

It seems a Florida man who was going to be wed the next day thought there was a break-in when in fact it was his wife to be. He then shot her and she died later in hospital...

I'm not the internet "OMG" or that kind of slang person when it comes to a story like this. I honestly think this is probably the only person in the developed world who's much worse off than me even in my worst times.

And once I start having trouble with assignments, who's worser off will equalize or get worse for me.
