Completely my fault. I downloaded a program (via CNet which I normally trust) and the fine print (which I only skimmed) gave them permission to download an Add On called Arcade Giant. I make a habit of going through the lists of whatever “extras” a program is going to download so that I can reject them all. In this case my brain must have been half asleep. It wasn’t a yes or no option. The fine print automatically gave permission. I was able to delete the program very soon after downloading and all seems to be back to normal now. By the way, I do use Firefox and normally have no problems. I wonder if those having similar issues to mine in Firefox also downloaded this Add-On to Firefox and didn’t realize it.
From My Motherlode:
Update 9:55 a.m.: Cal Fire reports the fire is 3 acres in size. The flames are near the South grove off Forest Road 5N07 in the Million Dollar Springs area. Cal Fire has reports of a white plumb in the sky in that area. There is no word on the rate of spread or how close the flames are to the big trees.
Update 10 a.m.: Cal Fire reports the fire is 3 acres in size. There is no word on rate of spread.
Scott-
Will from Do Wooders (who provide free firewood to people in need) will take the wood but is not sure when they will get to it (could even be next Spring) since all their help is volunteer. If you want to take some of the logs please do so. Address is 5192 Hokan Circle. You will see the logs in the front yard. I do want to make sure that Do Wooders get some of the wood, so please don’t share the address with anyone else. If you need to contact me, just email to macomstock@comcast.net.thanks
MikeThis seems to be a ‘feature’ of the latest version if the Firefox browser. You are probably seeing pop-up ads also. I do not believe these benefit the web page, but do benefit Mozilla Corporation. I switched browsers a while ago, and downloaded Google Chrome. No more underlines, and much fewer pop-up ads (none on BTT).
Did I accidentally download something, or has a new “feature” been added to BTT? Some of the forum messages now have a word or two underlined, and if I click on the underlined word, I get an advertisement. I know that this site is not cheap to run and if Techman has found a method to get some revenue by enabling these ads, I am okay with that. I just want to know if it is only happening to me because of something I inadvertently downloaded.
Right, it’s directly across the street (Oak Circle) uphill (same side of Hwy4) from where Tallahans used to be. Towards the earlier “Whiskey River” joint.
I don’t know, but from the picture it appears to be where Just Delicious and then Simply Delicious used to be.
They say they are “waiting for the county” in order to open. I assume that means permits. I am not on Facebook, but I could still access their page:
https://www.facebook.com/SoldiersdaughterI understand we will be getting a new place to eat soon in Arnold, Soldiers Daughter. Does anyone have more info about this?
Frank doesn’t take down trees, but he has crews that can do lot clearing and other maintenance jobs. I’ve used Scott Ball from Twain Harte several times to take down trees- he’s good, reliable, and reasonably priced. 209-586-4149.
He’s cleared the slash and cut and stacked sections of the logs- I’m not sure if he would take all the wood.
