date.timezone = "America/Anchorage";

in your php.ini file, or if you don’t have access to that, you can add this to your own project:

date_default_timezone_set('America/Chicago');

Use whatever timezone is appropriate for you, of course. The list is here: http://us3.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

…Glad I’m not the only one that noticed that behavior!

cd /usr/local
sudo ln -s mysql-5.1.37-osx10.5-x86_64/ mysql
Simply run that in the Terminal, and you should be all set.

James is a Traffic Management Coordinator at the Philadelphia International Airport Control Tower. He said:

My job is to reduce departure delays and to maintain an efficient flow of air traffic into and out of the Philadelphia International Airport. Currently we utilize a Google Spreadsheet to share real-time departure and weather issues, airport construction updates, and snow removal operations with the airlines and other interested parties. Im excited at the prospect of being able to embed real-time weather radar gadgets to provide users an up-to-the-minute graphical look at the weather. We currently use the chat feature on Google Spreadsheets but it appears that the more robust communication capabilities in Wave would greatly enhance our communication with the airlines. The ability to review conversations and data will help us to further reduce delays at Philadelphia International Airport. This will result in a savings of time for passengers, reduced fuel and operating costs for the airlines, and fewer complaints from both.

All I can say is: wow.  ATC on Google Apps? Nice.

Ok, so nice story. But you want to know how to get your camera back. Here’s the lowdown:
I found a solution to the problem.

Exchange 2007 has active sync policies. One of the options is to disallow the camera.

To resolve the problem do the following.

1. Open Exchange Management Console
2. Click “Organization Configuration”
3. Click “Client Access”
4. On the right you should see your active sync policies. Right click the policy and chose “Properties”
5. Click the “Device” tab
6. Check “Allow camera”

You should be all set. For those of you who are NOT connected to an Exchange server, check the restrictions pane under Settings > General > Restrictions

Well it does work for me – two way sync with Outlook 2007!

Simply save the installer to your machine, right click on the installer executable and select properties in the second tab Compatibility check the checkbox “Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP.

Run the installer

Then before running the program, navigate to the installed executable with windows explorer. It will probably be in: C:\Program Files x86\Google\Google Calendar Sync\ right click on GoogleCalendarSync.exe and do the same as for the installer. Compatibility with Windows XP

run the sync…

via Windows XP 64-bit Edition is not compatible with Google Calendar Sync at this time – Calendar Help.

MySQL error 1194: Table 'contacts' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

So this is what I did to fix it:
