I'm fairly certain this is new to the most recent Safari 4 beta (the second version - the one you can download after installing Mac OS X 10.5.7), but when I drag a file named "image.jpg" from a website, it names it "image.jpg.jpeg."

If I use the contextual menu or view the image and hit cmd-s to save the image, the supplied name doesn't have the superfluous ".jpeg" extension.

This appears to be a Safari issue, not a Mac OS X issue, as dragging files works as expected (no extra extension) in OmniWeb.

Originally, Scorecard 2.0 was scheduled to be released on Tuesday. But Rivet 2.1's release pushed that back and gave us a bit more time.

Then it was scheduled for today.

But the Windows version is having a little trouble with the in-app upgrade process. You see, we're handling upgrading within the application. We use the user's 1.0 license to determine whether to give them a free (i.e. 1.x licenses purchased in 2009) license or charge them an upgrade fee ($14.95 for any 1.x license purchased prior to 2009).

Hopefully the holdup won't be more than about a day or so, and Scorecard 2.0 will be released soon. I'll keep you posted, of course.

P.S. I still hope to sneak a "2" onto the icon somewhere, too.

Could it be? Yes, after more than two years, it seems so!

After an entire series of close games, half of which went beyond 60 minutes, it was nice to finally have a breather.

Now the Pens await the winner of the Bruins-Canes seventh game. Two ECF in two years is pretty good, but the Pens aren't satisfied by that. They're only halfway to their ultimate goal.

Sadly, it does not fix the caching issues.

Hrm.

Rivet 2.1 is now available. New in this release:

• Added Italian localization. Thanks to Andrea Boz.
• Added Spanish localization. Thanks to Juan Manuel Serón Luna.
• Cleaned up the French localization.
• Added an alias loop check for the folder parsing.
• Removed the ability to add / as a shared folder.
• Added a start-up check for / as a saved folder. This was causing the beachball hangs on launch.
• Fixed the root folder to not show Music when music sharing is off.
• Fixed a crash due to incorrect request counts.
• Fixed a number of return counts and totals.
• Fixed a UPnP issue that could arise from system sleep.
• Fixed a deadlock that could cause Rivet to lock-up during streaming.
• Added magical pony dust that makes everyone's lives better.
• Fixed a crash that could occur during streaming of pictures.

Rivet works with both Xbox 360 and PS3, and costs only $18.95.

Just curious: anyone else out there collect Coke Rewards points? Carey and I have about 2900, but really haven't seen anything worth spending them on for quite some time. We used to get the free movie rentals (plus pop and popcorn) from Blockbuster, but we haven't seen those offers in several months.

So Carey and I take our free Oprah KFC coupons. They tell us, reading a prepared statement, that "due to the overwhelming response" we'd have to come inside, fill out a form that they will mail in, and that coupons will then be mailed to us.

What a crock. More here.

True or false: public schooling in the United States is generally well suited for the average and below average children while leaving many of the more intelligent kids to fend for themselves.

Feel free to elaborate in the comments.

I saw a study today on some news show that said that because kids are home during the summer, the average amount of television viewed per household increases nearly 40% during the summer.

Mine drops nearly 100% - I barely watch TV (except golf, basically) during the summer. There's nothing on because it's nice outside and even the networks know that everyone's outside enjoying the nice weather and longer days.

Or at least that's what I thought. And people wonder why there's an obesity problem in the U.S. Cripes, people, go outside!

Last time I checked was back here. My mail was 72% spam back then - the addition of some more filters on the server side is responsible for a bit of the help there.

I was about 40% improved (he said 60%) on the takeaway, though he'd like my hands a bit more inside. Right hand grip was adjusted slightly to be a bit stronger, and we're just going to keep focusing on the same things.

Only new thing was something I decided to put off: left hand "chop" - power accumulator #4 in Golfing Machine language, I think.

Wife had her first lesson as well, but what she learned is for to know, remember, etc. I paid a little attention, but not much. She did great and was happy that the instructor called her "athletic" a few times. 🙂

We're putting the finishing touches on Scorecard 2.0, and expect to release the application in a week.

We're currently looking at handling the upgrade process in-app: both for the half-price upgrades as well as the free upgrades for those who purchased Scorecard 1.0 in 2009.

Over the next few days I'm going to edit/revise the manual and we'll get some final graphics in, and then we'll ship.

I've now hit roughly 1000 golf balls anywhere from 70 to 100 yards with a 7-iron, all in an attempt to groove a better takeaway.

It's incredibly annoying how important the first few inches your hands move can have such disastrous results on the rest of your golf swing. 🙂 But on the bright side, I guess I should be pleased that my setup and other static fundamentals are pretty sound, because heck, those can mess up your golf swing before you even start!

1000 balls, and I'm probably 1/4 of the way to where I need to be. At least I can feel the difference now between a good takeaway and a bad one. Good is more of a left shoulder move with the left hand feeling like it's working a bit under the right hand, with the right hand hinging up a bit to cock the club and to keep it outside of the hands.
