Cat Spraying A Common Annoyance
2008-04-21 15:10:00 By Paul Proctor'Cat spraying' is when a domestic cat will soil its house to mark its territory by backing into furniture or any household item and release a pungent spray. Approximately 40% of all soiling complaints are made of such instances. Females cats will sometimes do it when they are in heat, but generally it is mostly un-neutured male tom cats.Cats spray for a variety of reasons. They spray during territorial disputes, when they are aware of another cat in heat, when stressed and often after fights with other cats. So the cats, normally solitary creatures, mark their territory as a way to reduce conflicts with other cats in the area. Mostly cats will spray outside, but if there are conflicts within the home, they will spray inside as well.When a cat "sprays" an object, the spray releases a rancid odor most akin to ammonia. The smell may encourage the cat to spray again, so it is importantly to remove the smell rapidly and completely. When removing the smell, clean the obje...

SQL Server Management Studio Annoyance
2008-03-26 10:11:00 I have found SQL Server Management Studio to be clunky at times. It often hangs while saving tables, hangs when running long queries, and today I found the you-cannot-close-me bug which is very very irritating. This is what happens. You expand a table in object explorer –> right click on Constraints and click Add New ...

Online advertising: Attention Vs. Annoyance

Shia LaBeouf Likes Committing Small Crimes Of Annoyance
2008-03-20 20:59:00 Shia LaBeouf is turning into the Al Capone of minor infractions. First, he's had some public drunkenness episodes, then had a warrant issued for his arrest after missing a court date regarding a ticket for smoking in public and now his car got towed for blocking someone's driveway with his car. The warrant for his arrest for the smoking violation was recalled, but his car was impounded for the illegal parking bit. Yeah, few things piss me off more than someone parking in my spot at my apartment. Did he just assume the valet was on break? I get mad when my boyfriend tracks dirt in the house. I think Shia might wake up with a pillow on his face if we ever dated. Or not wake up at all, if I did it correctly. Photos: INFDaily.com More photos of Shia LaBeouf at a photoshoot for Arena Magazine are after the jump.
Annoyance Beauty Expires
2008-03-09 17:14:00 How long do you keep your beauty products? There are expiration dates on everything nowadays. After buying some Dr. Brandt items in January I was shocked to see the expiration date was May 2008! that’s right, just five months! Isn’t that the most annoying thing? Consider yourself forewarned about that brand, no one brought it to my attention, they just placed everything in the bag and it didn’t even occur to me to check. I really need to hurry and finish all of the products off, I can’t stand rushing through beauty products, especially skin care! There are some things you can do to fight products expiring prematurely. Whenever possible buy a pump bottle, it will reduce the ingredients to the air and light. Keep your prettiest perfume bottles hidden away in a cool, dark place. The only problem is you have to find a practical place that you will actually think to go to everyday. I usually sacrifice my lowest bottle of perfume to the car for the summer so ...

And She Flaps Her Wings Like Annoyance
2008-02-21 17:48:00 The evil School Faerie decided she wanted to be quite the little pest today. I just saw an email for my British Canon class saying that my TA wants everyone to have a full, six-page first draft of our final essays for the course by tomorrow for class (11:00 AM). I find that rather annoying. The email was sent on the 17th, but it still seems rather ridiculous for me to write a rough draft. I understand that for some people rough drafts (for essays) is really helpful. It's not for me. It never has been. That's not to say I'm smarter than other people, it just means I use a different process. I don't write good essays when I think ahead. And to be honest, when I write this essay and do this draft, I'll likely not touch it again until the day before the real essay is due. I don't like doing drafts. It forces me to think too far ahead of time and I like the pressure of having to churn out an essay in 48 hours rather than 336 (or 2 weeks).So the overall result of having t...
The Politics of Annoyance: My Thoughts on the California Debate
2008-01-31 05:09:00 (images: msnbc) All is fair in love and war, and especially in politics.

During the hour and a half debate at the Reagan Presidential Library this evening, not once would Senator McCain answer the question, in ...

5 Seconds of Annoyance: PayPerPlay?
2007-12-09 17:29:00 So I was reading this article on IMNewsWatch.com about this new so called innovation. It is another form of advertising which is similar to PPC (pay per click) but this new system plays a 5 second audio-mercial. It is funny because I also received a couple emails about this new system asking to join and test out the system - with referral links ofcourse. Ok so about this PayPerPlay thing - I was reading the landing page and found it to be a pretty bad idea. This PPP idea is made by NetAudioAds. It plays a small snippet of audio-mercial once a page loads for about 5 seconds. Do they give the option of pressing play to hear the audio, right now I think it does it on autoplay and I know that will be very annoying really fast. NetAudioAds? Pay-Per-Play (PPP) advertising is an advertising channel that is set to take the web by storm. Because of the size and scope of this deal (backed by one of the BIG 5 search engines), PPP advertising will become a world wide business media event. PPP w...

Gossip biggest work annoyance
2007-10-30 12:57:00 Work colleagues who spend their day gossiping, organizing their home lives or who press "reply all" on e-mails are among the biggest nuisances in the office, according to a survey released on Monday. This such wasted use of work time and nothing to improve bottom line dollars for any business. A poll on the biggest pet peeves in the workplace by market researcher Harris Interactive found 60% of 2,429 U.S. respondents listed gossip as the biggest annoyance. The online survey, conducted for staffing firm Randstad USA, found the second biggest peeve at 54% was poor time management which included people making personal phones calls at work or surfing the Internet during work time. Messiness in communal spaces, such as unwashed dishes in the kitchen sinks, irked 45% of respondent while potent smells like perfume, food, or smoke, came in fourth in the list with 42%. Rounding out the list of seven office peeves came loud noises such as speaker phones, loud talking and loud phone ...
Is annoyance worth the price of inner peace?
2007-10-10 04:30:00 From 24 hours: "Try not to fight back......If you are burdened by annoyances, you will lose your inward peace and the spirit of G-d will be shut out".Yesterday I was listening to a shiur which quoted the Gra' about how to deal with anger. "If you respond to someone else's anger with a retort, you will only make the situation worse by egging on the other person even more", the speaker said. He took his words from the ways that Yaakov responded to Lavan and to Eisav.So how does this affect my own life? I've noticed that when I jump at people (even if they "started it"), their automatic response is to cringe- well, who wouldn't?I also need to realize that if someone else is angry, they might have a valid reason. In this case, I need to step back and do a min- 10th step;Did I do something wrong that angered them?And I need to think- does responding with a retort do anything to heal our relationship, or does it merely, as the Gra suggests, just get them angrier?And what are these "an...

A Small Annoyance
2007-10-02 04:46:00 Okay, I hadn't been seeing this as much in my first year. But now that I am starting to read more theological material and I am starting to find myself surrounded - much like King Leonidas at the final battle in the movie "300" - by people who are really into this "stuff" in school, my gripe is this...Would it kill you to use an article with a noun?Seriously. Phrases with sentence structure like "Let us gather at Table" and "Using the bread and wine as Sacrament" are appearing with concerning rapidity in both the text that I am reading as well as scholarly conversation. Like, it's SO much more holy by omitting words like "the" and "an" from sentences. I'm sure God hears the phraseology of such religious commentary and thinks to Himself, "Damn straight!" Please, no wonder people think you have to become a zombie in order to become religious.My only request is if I start speaking that way, then could somebody please shoot me with Gun.PS: This post has a correction. Thanks for the c...
Bushwhacked
2007-09-25 23:53:00 Ever had long hair? I did. Correction, I still do. My hair is like Nelson from The Simpsons. It plays tricks on me. It also likes to bull shit me. If I push it to the right to keep out of my eyes, it will continually shift to the left causing partial blindness. Some days it will sit nicely on my head without causing problems. Then other days, I want to shoot it, but then I think that would be a really bad idea. Then I say aloud, "good thinking." Then I smile, wink at myself, and proceed to stick out my index finger and thumb in the shape of a gun.Most of the time I wear a hat or bandanna. Take note, I don't just wear any bandanna. I wear American flag bandannas, made in the U.S.A. Not only does it support America but it supports my hair in such a way so that it is out of eyes. Otherwise, the moral of the story is if you want long hair be prepared for the problems it causes. Not to mention, at night when it gets in my eyes it's more annoying then the smell of an open pickle jar.

EnterpriseDB Install Annoyance
2007-09-08 20:17:00 This is just a little peeve of mine. When you install EnterpriseDB, you can choose either a full production license or the free EnterpriseDB Express version. On my laptop, I want to run the express version. I don't need it to use more than 1 gig of ram, more than 1 cpu or more than 6gb of disk. But I can't even install it because my hardware exceeds those specs.Oracle Express Edition has the same limitations as EnterpriseDB Express (and so does Microsoft SQL Server Express), but Oracle (and MS) limit their hardware usage by building the limits into the software. You can install the software on hardware as big as you have and the software will limit itself while it is running.The EnterpriseDB installer won't even let you install. That also has me wondering about using EnterpriseDB. Oracle allows a developer to download, install and use the full blown enterprise edition of Oracle without any kind of key or license beyond the developer license. It looks like developers can o...

Annoyance makes everything only for annoyance
2007-08-25 18:56:00 Who is annoyed, is annoyed. The things, at which one is annoyed at most, are at the same time the things, at which one could laugh at most. Automatically that cannot be done, as long as one is not accustomed it. One must control oneself and practice, practices, to practice. Because exercise makes the master or? Certainly one should not laugh at everything, because it is not everything to to laugh. But so some annoyance could be able to be avoided, if one could only laugh at it.

Muck, there would have to be deseamed also times again! The remainder of the family always makes everything dirty. It has the mirrors deseamed, already hardly finds it bright again this to ugly tooth paste marks on it. So which annoying! Tina goes into the bath and begins to prepare the breakfast. Oh no!

Hypomania: Irritability and Annoyance (Part 2)
2007-07-23 09:01:00 (The graphic on the left is from Ken Brown and is one of his stamps called, Fingers in Ears. If we all went around with our fingers in our ears, I guess we wouldn't know if someone was irritable and annoyed or not. It's something to consider.)From yesterday's comments, I guess that some people go through the irritable and annoyed phase and others don't. In my case, hypomanias actually consist of three phases.Phase 1: Increased energy. A extraordinary feeling of happiness with myself and the world. A very loving feeling towards the people I care about. An uncommon ability to get things done. A huge burst of energy from the moment I awaken until I go to bed. An expanded ability to multi-task. An organizational acuity that is second to none. A willingness to engage with people. A desire to spend more time with people I care about--and even those I don't. I've written about this in earlier posts so I won't dwell on it here.Phase 2: Increased irritability and annoyance. Duri...
Hypomania: Irritability and Annoyance
2007-07-22 23:15:00 Before I post today, I would like to thank the following people for their responses to my last posting: daryl darko, Micky, Marja, Terry, Gay Bipolar Guy, Cindy, Marie, and Carrie. I greatly appreciate your comments and concern.I think that one of the downsides of hypomania that we don't know enough about is the irritability and annoyance phase. I finally realized that I haven't been mildly depressed for the last few weeks: rather, I've been irritable and easily annoyed.Why is that? Perhaps together we can figure it out.Do you have these periods? When do you get them? Is it after or during hypomanic episodes? Do you suddenly feel that perhaps you've been giving too much and getting too little? Does something switch inside you? When do you realize that the pleasure of helping others has faded and you have needs you'd like someone else to fulfill?Do you ever think: I've been there for others. Who is there for me? Who is going to buoy me up when I feel a bit down? Who...
