My Trip To The Medical Marijuana Dispensaries

In the past month I have journeyed to the cannabis club three times. The first time I went to the cannabis club I was a bit nervous but I noticed right away that it was a calm place & the people were chill. The first thing I noticed after walking in the door was the smell cannabis in the air.
I went to the front desk & the receptionist ask for my cannabis card & ID and then told me to fill out some paper work.
I did not have to wait long before someone took me into the back room. Where I went ahead & picked out my cannabis medication. The budtender was most helpful in helping me pick out what I was looking for and blow are some of the photos of what I selected in the three times.

Here are photos of all the marijuana that I get from dispensaries.

I Just Got My California Medical Marijuana Card!

Today I went to see my Cannabis Consultant Dr.
I did find it funny that I got to see him not far from 4/20 day & my appointment was at 4:10 LOL.
I kind of laged on getting there, my dads GPS was being dumb.
When I got there I had a butt load of paperwork to fill out I could not even remember how many time I had to write my name.
After all that I went in to see the Doc
he was a nice man & it shocked him to hear about my all the things that happened to my shoulder.
He asked me some questions then took a look at my shoulder.
We talked some more than told me well I’m going to approve you for the card. I was like ok cool.  :)
I went back into the main office where we talked some more & they got my paperwork/card ready. To see the Doc it cost $100 & when I go back in a year to renew I don’t think it will cost as much to see him.
I will be doing a follow-up post on going to the Medical Marijuana Dispensaries also known as the Cannabis Club.

Update on the Ustream Viewing Application For The The iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad

As most of you already know my LifeCast was not showing up on the Ustream.tv Viewing Application for the iPhone, iPad Tablet & iPod Touch
& that is because 
Ustream.tv had to update The Viewing App for only the iPhone, iPad Tablet & iPod Touch.
after that update any caster on the viewing app list who is not casting in
H.264 video codec and AAC audio codec
will not show up on the viewing app for apple devices.
Now why did they do that??
Here is what I got back from
Ustream.tv

Due to the codec restrictions on the iPhone HTTP streaming standard only streams with H.264 and AAC codecs can be played back on the iPad and iPhone so for this reason we are only listing those. Please switch to Ustream Producer for streaming (that uses the right codec) and your stream will appear again.

More BS Thanks to apple.
I do not like the Ustream Producer Application at all.
I tried the free one and let me say I installed it then 6 minutes later I uninstalled it, it’s really bad and I can’t believe the pay Producer Application would be better.
Maybe with time & some hard work the Ustream Producer Application could become soemthing good but in no way am I going to use it the way it is now.
So here I’m left thinking what am I going to do. now keep in mind I would only not show up on the
Ustream.tv Viewing App for apple devices but I would continue to show up on the Ustream.tv Viewing App for the Android Phone.
Well I knew The Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3.1 had H.264 video codec but as I later found out did not have the AAC audio codec. :(
but with some luck I did find a Plug-in made by MainConcept for Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder
http://www.mainconcept.com/site/prosumer-products-4/aac-encoder-21580/information-21891.html

now this plugin does cost a lot of $ but it is the only way to get AAC into Adobe FME
Here is where you can download the Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder

E-TARD The LifeCaster Travels to Ohio

OHIO

 

  On October 24th 2009 I will be leaving from San Diego California airport to Columbus Ohio airport to see my girlfriend DzhaA, I will return on December 20th 2009 & yes I will be out there for my birthday thats on December 18th.
Sad :(  to say I will not be broadcasting during my stay with her,
DzhaA has slow DSL Internet that I can not broadcast from
but I will go into town from time to time & if I can find a WiFi access point to broadcast from I will.
so to keep posted for when I do go Live on Cam use one of the follow services
 • Follow Me on Twitter.com
http://twitter.e-tard.tv
 • Subscribe e-tard.tv via SMS/TEXT Message
 • Subscribe e-tard.tv via E-Mail Address
You can find both the E-Mail & SMS/TEXT Message Subscribe Forms on the left column of e-tard.tv.
I also will be in my chat room most of the time
& will be online on Windows Live Messenger & MySpaceIM.
I know this sucks but I will take loads of pictures & will make some videos as well as use this time to work on some awesome Blog posts that I have put off for some time.
 It also it gives me the chance to work on my video editing skills now that I got CyberLink PowerDirector.
I hope you all will come by my chat room on the 23th for the last Hrs of my cast.

Microsoft Windows XP Internet Speed Tweaks

To speed up your Internet on Microsoft Windows XP Pro & Home Edition
you would have to make some changes to your Windows Registry
but thanks to
SpeedGuide.net we can now make the changes with this nice GIU App Called TCPOptimizer.exe
    CLICK HERE for The Guide on how to use TCPOptimizer.exe
   
CLICK HERE for The FAQ to TCPOptimizer.exe

When you use the TCPOptimizer Tool you will need to use the SpeedGuide Analyzer Web App

Remember that TCPOptimizer Only Works for Microsoft Windows XP Pro & Home Edition as well as Windows 2000, Windows ME, Windows 98, Windows 95.
So Do Not Use It On Windows Vista 32/64 or Windows Server 2008!!!!!!!
____________________
Here is a Patch for the TCPIP.SYS File made by
lvllord.de
You will need this Patch for the fact that The TCPIP.SYS File that Microsoft gives you sucks.
This Patch Only Works on Windows XP Pro & Home or Windows 2003 Server!!!!!
   
EvID4226Patch223d-en.zip  EventID 4226 Patcher Version 2.23d (english) 
    EvID4226Patch223d-de.zip  EventID 4226 Patcher Version 2.23d (german)

Now The Internet I have is fast,
I have Verizon Fios 31-MegaBits Download & a 20-MegaBits Upload.
The thing is when I got Verizon Fios Internet I was not getting my Full Upload Speed.
They gave me a registry file to fix it
Speed-Fix.reg
This Registry File made some of the same changes to the registry that the TCPOptimizer Tool does
Accept This One
Whats inside of the Speed-Fix.reg
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AFD\Parameters]

“DefaultSendWindow”=dword:0001fe78
“DefaultReceiveWindow”=dword:000ff3c0

This was the one thing it did that no other speed tweak that I have seen did.
It really speeds up The Internet  in Windows.

This Reg Fix works on any other Internet Connection & only work on Windows XP Pro & Home Edition & Windows 2000.
The Speed-Fix.reg you see here has only the AFD\Parameters part in it so use that with the other tools you see in this post.

 


 

 If you are looking for some ways to Speed Up your Internet on Microsoft Windows Vista 32-Bit/64-Bit or Windows 2008 Server. 
Then go here
http://www.speedguide.net/downloads.php 
& look for

SG Vista TCP/IP Patch
Description: The SG Vista TCP/IP patch us a quick way to optimize Vista TCP/IP settings for broadband internet connections. It sets both netsh auto tunning levels and modifies the Windows Registry as recommended by our Vista Tweaks article. It is recommended to run the patch when logged in with administrative priviledges. The patch allows for reverting all settings to their respective Windows default values as well. Note you may have to right-click the link above and choose “Save Target As…” to save to your computer. To apply, save to your desktop and run as administrator (right-click -> run as administrator). Type Y when prompted to optimize parameters.
ONLY FOR Windows Vista 32/64, Server 2008.

or

sg_vista_tcpip_limit_patch.zip
Description: This registry patch changes the limit of half-open TCP connections to 500 (from the default 2-25). Note that this should only be needed pre-Service Pack 2, and a patched tcpip.sys version is necessary to utilize this tweak, as outlined in our Vista tcpip.sys connection limit article.
ONLY FOR Windows Vista 32-bit/64-bit.

NOTE THAT
I have never used The Patchs/Tweaks for Windows Vista & Windows 2008 Server.

Internet Explorer 8 Tweak for Windows XP

IE 8

      Not long ago IE 8 was released.
After installing IE 8 I notice that more then one iexplore.exe is running in the background
but I only had one IE 8 window open & for every tab I had open I would have one more iexplore.exe running in the background.
All of this was taking up more ram.

Internet Explorer 7 did not run liked this.
So after 1HR of searching I found the info I needed fix this.
All you have to do is go to start & run
then type in regedit & after the app is open
add this to it

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main]
“FrameMerging”=”0″
“TabProcGrowth”=dword:00000000

or Download this .reg File I have made
                    IE8-Fix.reg
REMEMBER I ONLY RUN WINDOWS-XP
I WOULD NOT USE IT ON VISTA.
I DON’T KNOW WHAT IT WILL DO ON VISTA.

Aug-21-2010
I have tryed this on windows 7 ultimate 64 bit & everything seems fine.
