[As of 14-Oct-2007] Vedic and team had their third match yesterday and they all are doing good. They are learning fast and by now they all understand which goal post they need to shoot, which one is their team and which one is opponent team. Well they know offense and defense and they quickly go to save goal if opponents are close to their goal. Vedic saved one goal that was almost in the goal but he blocked the ball from his feet right before the goal post. That was awesome. Match 1: Yellow team vs Orange team: Match start and here you go.

ASP.NET 2.0 Web Site versus Web Application

Web Site projects were introduced with VS 2005. Many people complained because the VS 2003 manner of creating compiled Web Applications were more efficient and easy to manage. Here is an article that explains the Web Application project which became part of SP1… It is much more highly scalable… http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/Aa730880(VS.80).aspx Following is the article that stats steps to convert a web site project to web application project. http://webproject.scottgu.com/CSharp/Migration2/Migration2.aspx During migration, it will be changes in the project structure and additional files will be created (.designer). App_code files will be moved to Old_App_Code folder and there will be one assembly file for complete project.

HLG normally refrains from commenting on rumors, but we have talked to several Washington insiders and believe that this is seriously being considered. While as per http://immigrationvoice.org/ : A BIG ANNOUNCEMENT LIKELY IN NEXT 24 HOURS : Immigration Voice core has learned that something is likely to happen in next 24 hours (or Monday) possibly to fix the issues caused by recent visa bulletin. We have been told not to divulge details of this development. All we can say as of now is that : 1). Th
