There are many ways to improve Windows Vista's network performance. I've been documenting some of the ways here:

What's in a Krispy Kream Donut?
As most of you know I've been knee deep in Atkin's and really now seeing some major progress. But after watching a Donut paradise special on TV the other day, where they took us on a cross-country adventure looking for the best donuts, I suddenly started to crave that which we all know is bad for us--the donut!
So wouldn't you know what I started looking for Nutritional information from websites and I couldn't find the ingredients for a KK donut. Now as most know Atkins is all about the carbs, but getting further into your eating, you should also (regardless if you are on Atkins) be focused on WHAT is in your food. It's absolutely surprising to know that the food that we've come to love and enjoy is actually pretty bad for us in many different ways, but mainly because of the raw materials that goes into making the food.
Below is what I got back from Krispy Kream regarding the ingredients that they use, and enough to say YOU SHOULD NOT EAT THESE on the sheer principle that the first ingredient is not at all what you want to put into your body!

This isn't to say that the donuts are terrible, but for those who are health consicous and this is going out to the majority of US folks who are considered to be on the obease side of things, you should definitely stay away from foods with enriched bleached white flour. Really where's the nutritional benefit from that!Ingredients: Enriched bleached wheat flour (contains bleached wheat flour,
niacin, reduced iron, thiamine, mononitrate, riboflavin, folic acid), dextrose,
vegetable shortening (partially hydrogenerated soybean and/or cottonseed oil),
water, sugar, soy flour, egg yolks, vital wheat gluten, yeast, nonfat milk, yeast
nutrients (calcium sulfate, ammonium sulfate), dough conditioners (calcium
dioxide, monocalcium and dicalcium phosphate, diammonium phosphate, sodium
stearoyl-2-lacrylate, whey, starch, ascorbic acid, sodium bicarbonate, calcium
carbonate), salt, mono-and-diglycerides, ethoxylated mono- and diglycerides,
lecithin, calcium propionate (to retain freshness), cellulose gum, natural and
artificial flavors, fungal alpha amylase, amylase, maltogenic amylase,
pantosenase, protease, sodium caseinate, corn maltodextrin, corn syrup solids
and BHT (to help protect flavor).
Glaze also may contain: Calcium carbonate, agar, locust bean gum, disodium
phosphate, and sorbitan monostearate.
Moving a Drupal Site From One Host to Another
If you are moving your Drupal site from one host to another, you'll want to follow the steps on the wiki:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init
When you run your PHP script you get the error:
http://evolutioncreations.wik.is/Ubuntu/FAQ%27s/PHP/Fatal_error%3a_Call_to_undefined_function_curl_init()
Fatal error: Call to undefined function curl_init()
This is most likely caused by PHP not having the curl module installed. To fix, you want to run:
restart Apache and then check your phpinfo page to verify if this is showing up or not.sudo apt-get install php5-curl

Refreshing HTML Page and Google Analytics Integration
Lets say you want to create a subdomain, and then route it to a completely different webpage after a predefined length of time, but you want it to execute the Google Analytic code to be able to then track the transaction. How do you do that?
New WIKI!
For awhile now I've been adding technical docs to this blog in attempt to both retain knowledge that I find over the ages, but also to share with the wider community and partipate in the conversation.
In an effort to better facilitate this, I have a new Deki wiki solution that will be used to house all the existing articles, as well as future articles. I hope that you find this a better solution as I have found so myself and participate in the wiki to make it better!
Update and append to end of string in MSSQL
How do you take a string in an MSSQL table and append another string to the end of it? To do this, you can run a bit of SQL such as:
update tablename set Columnname = Columnname + 'newstring' where id = X
So if you are say updating a column that is a URL and you want all instances in the table to receive a new value at the end of the URL, your query might look like:
update url_table set urlfield = urlfield + '&additionalfield=true'
