Keboard ShortctsA Canadian customer was calling to find out if there was a faster way to trigger menucommands than mousing up to the menus.Agent: Certainly, sir. There are keyboard shortcuts for many of those commands. Forexample, suppose you want to trigger the Select All command...Caller: Yes, I use that one all the time! How do I do it?Agent: Well, you just press Control-A.Caller (after a pause): Well, that's not working for me.Agent: Do you have a text document open in front of you?Caller: Yes, I sure do. Agent: OK, now press Control-A.Caller: I am, but nothing happens. Agent: The text isn't highlighted?Caller: No, there's no change at all.Agent: That's odd. If you press Control-A the whole document should be highlighted.Try it again. Press Control-A. Tell me exactly what's happening.Caller (nearing his Canadian breaking point): Listen. I'm pressing Control, eh? And
nothing's happening, eh?

MP for Papineau(Quebec) JustinTrudeau made alunch stop at theMerritt Desert Innon Monday, firststop on his provin-cial tour after thedebate on Sunday atthe Coast with the
other 8 Liberal party leader hopefuls.Justin has only been in the Legislaturesince 2008, but his youth & celebrity beliehis public ease, intelligence & obviousunderstanding of both the historical as-pect of Canadian politics (from his polit-ical personal life) & the new direction thiscountry has to move in to be able to facethe future with success for Canadians athome & on the world stage.
His message is fresh & compassionate,and has all the obvious good sense of hisgeneration that knows the environmentis a baseline that needs to be taken careof, and that the biggest resource thecountry has is the energy & new outlookof its young people. They are the oneswho will make the difference, and he isappealing to them.
Smart Meter pdateHomeowners who refused Smart Me-ters last year, are now receiving lettersfrom BC Hydro that might be intimidat-ing. Locally, the Nicola Valley Safe Tech-nology Advocates have some hints tohelp you handle your response. They sayyou must respond to protect your rights,and they have instructions and a replyletter available. For more info, you cancontact Walter at 378-6443.
They have also organized an info ses-sion with guest speaker Jerry Flynn, a re-tired Canadian Armed Forces captain &wireless radio specialist. Hell speak onradiation levels, invasion of privacy & se-curity. Those interested are welcome toattend on Thurs. Jan 31, 7pm at TrinityUnited Church.
Aspen StleThe YouTube video posted late lastweek is going viral! In just a few days, itshad almost 5000 hits, which surprised
Jonathan Psy Cook he said at theCoopers check-out on Friday evening.
The video is a spoof on the hugely-popular Gangnam Style, and produced forAspen Planers Christmas party. Its well-done, with many employees participat-ing, directed by Sonia Ghog & Jas Brar,and written by Rauvin Manhas.
Check it out! Search Aspen Style onYouTube.com or perhaps youre part ofthe crowd that has helped it go viral.
