  • Greetings!

    Well, I pray you and yours had a wonderful and peaceful year end Holiday, whether it was Christmas, Chanukah, or you're enjoying Kwanzaa, and that your new year celebration this week is a safe one.

    I offer to you my best wishes for a happy and healthy new year of 2004!

    Developments

    New Stuff! New Services! Be sure to check out my new Custom Windows Software section! Whether you're a system administrator with a need for task automation, or a home PC user with a wish for a tool or a toy or special utility, I can provide a customized solution for you. Support for virtually anything you need is available, including FTP, POP3, SMTP, controlling peripherals, managing software, users and processes, and much more.

    This new section offers software and services for all Windows platforms and users. Via these pages and service offerings, I develop specialized programs and customized solutions for anyone using or administering Windows PCs, servers and networks.

    Building on my experiences with my own system and needs, as well as administrative tools I've developed for clients, I now offer customized solutions to anyone's unique needs. Is there a custom tool you wish you had for your Windows system? Let me know! I'll bet I can build it for you.

    Find out more below, and check out some new tools and toys you may download free!

    My two cents
    [Article removed due to irrelevance to non-subscribers]

    This section is where I usually put my two cents, and I welcome and appreciate your opinions and feedback. Please don't hesitate to let me know what you think, whether it's about this newsletter, the website, or anything else!

    Custom Software
    The new software section sports information about the new service, as well as new software anyone may use. One such program of course, is my flagship product mentioned last month, Roosl's Mail Filter. A new version of that is now available, which includes support for wildcard domain blocking.

    I've also introduced several new entries. These are handy tools and toys I not only had fun developing, but they're fun to use, and are free for anyone to download.

    There are functional tools, such as my System Monitor, which displays many things about your PCs resources, memory and disk usage, and a useful search utility. Then there are the fun desktop toys, such as a nifty calendar and a binary clock. Details and screen shots of each are displayed for your curious perusal.

    There will be more to come, and I hope you'll think of that program or tool you always wish you had, and ask me to write it for you!

    Contest?
    Last Issue's contest: Who designed the sets and creature in the movie "Alien"? Answer: H.R. Giger

    Here is this issue's contest: In the cycling (lower) frame at Roosl's Graphic Design, an image appears along with the "last update" and "copyright". What is the origin of that image?

    The first person who e-mails the correct answer wins a free license for the full version of Roosl's Mail Filter! I will announce the winner in the next newsletter (unless you wish to remain anonymous)!

    No Links?
    Are you reading this with the new AOL 9.0 or Outlook 2003? Do you see images (pictures)? Are you able to follow the links from this message to the pages I mention (often a picture is a clickable link)? If not, your new mail program may well have disabled them!

    By default, the new AOL 9.0 and Outlook 2003 disable image and hypertext links in your email. You can fix this by checking your settings and enabling them. I believe you may also specify certain senders from whom email will have these settings enabled, if you choose not to enable them in all messages.

    Speaking of links, remember there are quick links to topics mentioned, as well as others, at the end of this newsletter.

    Have you visited Roosl's lately? Are you an occasional visitor, only clicking on links in this newsletter? There is a lot more to see, ya know!

    Kudos to God
    As always, make a time and space for God... The God of all seasons, of ebbing and flowing, of planting and harvesting, of days and nights, of warmth and cold, of future years and fading years. He reminds me to keep from wasting today worrying about yesterday. To keep me from wasting today wanting and worrying about tomorrow.

    Forever grateful to God for His given blessings, I can't say enough about what His presence and meaning are to me in my daily life...

    May He keep you safe and your spirit close in the coming new year!

    Remember to "Work like you don't need the money"... and "Dance like nobody's watching"
