Managed Hosting Uk
Is there a UK website where you can have images printed on merchandise, and they deal with distribution, etc?
I'm looking for something like CafePress but UK based.
This is what CafePress do: customers are able to open an online shop to sell prints of their own artwork and images on clothing, badges, bags, all sorts of products - all with no upfront costs and no inventory to manage - Cafe Press manage it all and do the printing for you.
They manage every aspect of doing business online, including storefront development, site hosting, order management, fulfillment, secure payment processing, and quality customer service - enabling anyone to open a free shop with no upfront costs and no inventory to manage.
So now you know what it is, is there anything like this in the UK and is it any good? Has anyone used it and how has it worked for you?
thats called flexo print, thats how i found this:
http://www.flexotradeprint.co.uk/
I have never used it, but maybe take a peek...
good luck
oops that is only for printing....but anyway....
any partylite (uk) consultants out there?
i've just joined up as a consultant and have had nothing but hassles and problems.My team leader is useless, wont keep in contact with me or returns calls and she's not given me much information about the job or how to go about getting parties.I've already had my starter show which sale wise was fantastic, so i've managed to clear my kit.But i am really struggling to get parties and reach my £1200 for the end of this month so i can get the extra 5% bonus. I've asked my team leader for help and advise, but she keeps trying to fob me off saying she'll phone me at some point, but she never does. I feel like just packing it all in as no-one is interested in hosting a party. I have'nt even written out the little speach that you say at the start of the party, i have'nt a clue what to say. Help!
I have never heard of party lite before but i used to work for a direct selling company.
These team leaders come under divisions (if it still works the same way) and she will have a manager whom would be livid to find out that someone with your potential is not getting the start that you were promised initially.
You must have some paperwork in your kit of how to order and i personally would contact the head office, which is normally where your order will be dealt with and despatched, and speak to someone in confidence and request the divisional managers phone number.
Ask for assistance from this manager stating that you have lost confidence in your team leader ask if you can placed under another team.
If you get no luck then demand your money back.
How to setup DNS settings (such as MX, A, CNAME, TXT)?
I have a domain (.co.uk) with 123-reg
The content is hosted by arhoster.com
Form the 123-reg panel, I have done the following :
-Changed the 2 DSN names to the ARHOSTER names
But what do I need to do for the following (if anything) :
- MX Records (is it email ?)
- CNAME
- A
- TXT
I want everything (mail, content, etc..) to be managed by ARHOSTER, apart from the domain registration.
Thank you.
MX *is* email. You have to provide a valid DNS name that is your mail server (not an IP address).
You don't need a CNAME record.
You don't need a TXT record (unless your provider says you do for SPF)
The A records point a name to a number...so you might need an "A" record to point "www.yourdomain.co.uk" to the IP address you want it to point to.
How does multi-country website like yahoo or google work?
Yahoo have different websites for different countries e.g. yahoo.com for USA, yahoo.co.in for India, yahoo.co.uk for UK and similarly for other countries.
If we create a yahoo mail account using yahoo.com and then login to yahoo mail in India using yahoo.co.in or in UK using yahoo.co.uk, yahoo is still validate the user and retrieve all mails.
But if we see country specific website e.g. yahoo India website then content on that website is entirely India specific and there are different applications e.g. Yahoo Map and Yahoo Autos are available in Yahoo USA website but they are not available in India website.
How does yahoo manage all these domains, their web hosting and databases?.
How does everything works behind the scene?
All of the components are modular. There is a webmail interface linked to the databases for that, and the same for your personal account. These are authenticated by the server, so they stay the same for all the sites. However, the content is component based, so for example, they might have an American news component, and an Indian news component, and the different domains just load different components to the page. To get all of these domains, Yahoo simply purchased them, and maintains them all using the same basic template template, but with different information in each.
i got an email about the yahoo lottery promotion, is it true?
This is a SCAM. Check out the below link for confirmation of various email scams hitting the internet including the famous Yahoo/MSN lottery scams and how to report them:

Unscrupulous thieves have sent you this email and they are trying to part you from your hard earned cash. They will often ask you to call a premium rate number and keep you holding on whilst you rack up a huge phone bill. They are then paid a large proportion of this phone bill. They may ask you to divulge personal information about yourself or ask for your bank or credit card details. Do not divulge any such information under any circumstances. It is surprising how many innocent victims have been duped by these types of emails. Just remember the thieves who send them are very clever and extremely convincing. I suggest you delete the email and send it into cyberspace, hopefully along with the thieving scumbags who send them.

Do You Feel Safer With U.S. "Missile Defense" in Poland?
The system has been in development since 1946, and so far it has achieved a grand total of nothing. You wouldn’t know it if you read the press releases published by the Pentagon’s missile defence agency: the word “success” features more often than any other noun. It is true that the programme has managed to hit two out of the five missiles fired over the past five years during tests of its main component, the ground-based midcourse missile defence (GMD) system. But, sadly, these tests bear no relation to anything resembling a real nuclear strike.
All the trials run so far - successful or otherwise - have been rigged. The target, its type, trajectory and destination, are known before the test begins. Only one enemy missile is used, as the system doesn’t have a hope in hell of knocking down two or more. If decoy missiles are deployed, they bear no resemblance to the target and they are identified as decoys in advance. In order to try to enhance the appearance of success, recent flight tests have become even less realistic: the agency has now stopped using decoys altogether when testing its GMD system.
This points to one of the intractable weaknesses of missile defence: it is hard to see how the interceptors could ever outwit enemy attempts to confuse them. As Philip Coyle - formerly a senior official at the Pentagon with responsibility for missile defence - points out, there are endless means by which another state could fool the system. For every real missile it launched, it could dispatch a host of dummies with the same radar and infra-red signatures. Even balloons or bits of metal foil would render anything resembling the current system inoperable. You can reduce a missile’s susceptibility to laser penetration by 90% by painting it white. This sophisticated avoidance technology, available from your local hardware shop, makes another multibillion component of the programme obsolete. Or you could simply forget about ballistic missiles and attack using cruise missiles, against which the system is useless.

no i dont feel safer..
i feel ripped off.. that i have to help pay for another corporate welfare program
i feel like we're crapping in the russians back yard..
it's been shown that all thru the cold war.. the russians never intended on attacking the usa.. they had their huge military out of fear of us attacking them.
all this saber rattling is not needed and it's offensive to peace loving peoples. it's corporate welfare for the us defence industry.. and it's a fat paycheck and promise of a future job to all the people in our govt that sell us out for their bottom line.

Hello Danny,
I empathise with your frustration, and am sorry to report that, although I do not work for Yahoo or any of it's affiliates, I am almost certain you will either not get a response from Yahoo Headquarters, or they will reply with the same bulldust apologies you've been getting.
Your messages implied you use email, particularly the storage of messages and addresses, as part of your business dealings, and is integral to your ability to earn your living. I strongly suggest you sign up with a globally acreditted organisation that guarantees safe and secure transfer of email direct from the ISP to your hard drive (not internet based), or if you need it to be internet based so you can access email from any PC anywhere, go with a company that provides a service you need to pay for, such as Yahoo Premium services, or MSN Hotmail Premium services. when one of those customers has a problem, it is dealt with THAT DAY, and they establish VOICE based communication with you about the problem with a real physical person within minutes of receiving word of the existence of a problem of this magnitude.
Because you are not paying for your account, it is filed with all the other thousands of complaints they receive every DAY, and most complaintants figure out the problem on their own, or with the advice given by the low level techs. The rest simply give up and work around the problem till Yahoo (when they're good and bloody ready) will provide a programming patch for all their software. Overhauls like this are rare, expensive and time consuming, so cannot be justified unless enough people with yahoo accounts send in complaints that their machine is presenting with the same problem and Yahoo has to yield to customer demand or lose registerers.
Therefore my advice is this. Send out an electronic SPAM petition asking people to try the feature in the same way your problem is presenting, and if it occurs in theirs send in a complaint to Yahoo Customer Service.
To fight a company, you have to think like a psychopath, because the average corporation is medically diagnosed as having a pathological persuit of profit and power. This is proven in the movie documentary "The Corporation", made by three antiglobalisation activists. I suggest it to everyone who has a beef with global society today. I strongly suggest you DON'T SEE IT: it's likely to make you very mad, and I don't want anyone to experience the same fit of rage I felt after watching it.
Blessed Be.
Britain v USA ....what do you think? A letter from HM the Queen to the American people...?
To the citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II
In light of your immediate failure to financially manage yourselves and also in recent years to elect incompetent Presidents of the USA therefore not be able to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately. (You should look up 'revocation' in the Oxford English Dictionary.)
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths, and territories (except Kansas, which she does not fancy).
Your new Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.
Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated sometime next year to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:
-----------------------
1. The letter 'U' will be reinstated in words such as 'colour,' 'favour,' 'labour' and 'neighbour.' Likewise, you will learn to spell 'doughnut' without skipping half the letters, and the suffix '-ize' will be replaced by the suffix '-ise.' Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels. (look up 'vocabulary').
------------------------
2. Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ''like' and 'you know' is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter 'u'' and the elimination of '-ize.'
-------------------
3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday....
-----------------
4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers, or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you're not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can't sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you're not ready to shoot grouse.
----------------------
5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. Although a permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.
----------------------
6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts, and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect. At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and without the benefit of conversion tables. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.
--------------------
7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.
-------------------
8. You will learn to make real chips. Those things you call French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.
-------------------
9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as beer, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as Lager. Australian beer is also acceptable, as Australia is pound for pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth - see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat's Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.
---------------------
10. Hollywood will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters. Watching Andie Macdowell attempt English dialogue in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one's ears removed with a cheese grater.
---------------------
11. You will cease playing American football. There are only three kinds of proper football; one you call soccer, Australian Rules and rugby (dominated by the Australians). Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies).
---------------------
12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable. You will learn cricket, and we will let you face the Australians (again World dominators) first to
Yes I like it, a nice gentle wind up.
Your replies from Americans (so far) have been amusing. Good I like it all. Nothing like a good bit of banter.
With an avatar name like yours, I just had to look into your profile, to make sure this was not a serious point you were trying to make .
Although I am a Scot I was raised not far from your area, Aberconwy secondary modern, lived in Llandudno Junction, my Grandad was a Welsh Nationalist.
Another boring point is that I only recently discovered that Brits are not 'subjects' but a mixture of both subjects and citizens, according to my new passport.
I also know that no American would ever want to be classed as a subject, they bow to no one!
So I am very suprised that some have not exploded at your suggestion.
Cant send emails from Outlook express!?
A bit different from the last qurie, so please help me!
my broadband is supplied by bt, which then gives me yahoo address, as they are linked, but my incoming mail is via my website host!
the error i am getting is
The message could not be sent because the server rejected the sender's e-mail address. The sender's e-mail address was 'david@blastdesign.co.uk'. Subject '', Account: 'David', Server: 'mail.btinternet.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '553 From: address not verified; see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/manage/sendfrom-07.html', Port: 587, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC78
i have tried changing to ssl, but it then comes up with a second pop-up telling me ssl is not supported!
any help would be great
thanks in advance
I am sorry, but as far as i am aware outgoing mail is always handled by the ISP, bt in this case?
This problem and its solution is most lucidly explained here:

What a disastrous and badly explained change by BT (but no more than we've come to expect).
