Anyone else had problems with Zonealarm and a home network? 3 computers, all with windows xp,2 with zonealarm,1 with windows firewall. When ZA is turned off no probs, turn it on and 2 computers dissappear. Tried tuning ZA settings but to no avail!

I'm trying to follow as much of a veggie diet as possible (limiting meat to once a week). Only problem is I am finding my options limited and boreing. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? Also leaving out dairy products so have to take that into account.

Appreciate any ideas.

What was the first Rock 'n' Roll record to earn "gold" status?

Finally cut the grass - the dog was getting lost back there and there were very 'wild Africa' like pathways through the long grass (from the regular route used by the dog).

Anyhow, that is done, the apple trees were pruned back in January and both have produced a bumper crop of flowers so am hopeful for a good yield of fruit this year.

Yesterday I planted out the bulk of my herbs. Due to wind related accidents I have lost about a third of what I originally planted (greenhouses blew over).

But, was very pleased with the overall yield yesterday. For this year I have so far got:

Sweet (Genovese) Basil
Neapolitan Basil (giant crinkly leaveS)
Russian Tarragon
Flat leaf parsley
Leaf Coriander
Mint
Summer Savory
Anise Hyssop
Albertos Quillquina (like Coriander)
Greek Oregano
Sweet Marjoram
Thyme

Still waiting to be potted on are more coriander, parsley, sweet basil and also green perilla, red perilla (both basil substitutes) and oregano (not the Greek variety).

Seeds waiting to be sown are:

Neapolitan Basil (only four plants survived the storm)
Sweet Basil (can never have enough)
Thai Coriander (stronger than the regular stuff)
Lemon Coriander (variant I want to try)
Green and Red Perillas (very few survived the storm)
Arrat Basil (clove scented basil, none survived the storm)
Papalo (another coriander substitute)
Thyme (only got four plants from the last sowing)
Pot Marjoram (just to see how it differs from the sweet variety)
Korean Mint (still hunting down seed but will get there)
Asian Basil (also very clovey but delicious)

I have to set the beans out this month and prepare a patch for the handful of toms I want to trial this year.

So, once this diet is over I can look forward to a year of gastronomic surprises!

How are your preparations getting on?

According to Greek mythology, why did Agamemnon agree to sacrifice his daughter Iphigenia?

TV Guide outsells Reader's Digest.

Have any of your children read any of his books? If so, have they enjoyed them, and could they be enjoyed by a girl too?

:help: Did anybody watch ER about a week ago? I know this sounds silly, but on there the one Doctor was saying a nursery rhyme ot her son Cosmo...

It went something like One Hippo.... The second hippo went to a party... Something along those lines.

I thought that I would be able to remember it, but alas, my menory has left me too!

I need to get some nursery rhymes 'coz I want to sing/recite them to my little man...

Hopefully I don't sound too coo-coo...
