  1. Could it be something to do with St-Ignacious of Loyola who used the IHS (a symbol of Jesus's name) when he established his jesuit order?
  2. Barev Aidin-Sabetian, and welcome to HyeForum to you as well.
  3. Welcome to HF, Alberto. Excellent work on Vahé's site. Congratulations! We look forward to seeing the results of efforts on cathyberberian.com. Oh, and I'm excited to hear her Armenian folk songs. Enjoy your stay here.
  4. Bari Taredarts Armen jan!
  5. Alright children. We can do without the insults/insinuations.
  6. Thanks Marty. A quick search in Le Monde turned up this article, which makes Turkey's acceptance into the EU sound a lot more plausible than I previously imagined: Chirac confirms his support for the acceptance of Turkey in the EU.. (in french) The Figaro wants to charge 4 Euros just to read ONE article! That's almost 8$ CAD!!

    Armenian Brandy!

    Thanks for your offer, but unfortunately, yes import duties apply - and the tax our government puts on things like alcohol is insane! In the realm of +80%, and then you add GST (!). I'm not sure of the exact figures, but I assume it's prohibitive. I suppose I'll have to look into it... Gams - looked for Specks stores on the web and nada.... are there any in VT, or NY?? let me know

    Armenian Brandy!

    I forgot to mention, I don't really need a huge quantity - if the price is right, I'll probably buy at least a case (12), or half of a case minimum. It's probably harder to find a solution for such a small amount.... <_< Any feedback would help.

    Armenian Brandy!

    Hey folks! (and especially any canadians) Any idea where I can get decent armenian brandy in canada?? I'm not interested in the hassle of importing/customs/duties etc. - unless someone knows of a broker that can handle this... I've looked at the SAQ & LCBO - there's none available in Ontario, and the SAQ has a mystery variety that sells for 37$ CAD, but i have no idea of the make, year etc - and it's not available in stores. Any suggestions?

    You could try a software repair & restore... I know it seems pretty non-geeky, but I restored XP after having a host of problems (including windows explorer crashing whenever I accessed the shared folder ) and now things see to be back to normal. Just make SURE you back up everything first.
  11. Marty, was this covered in teh French media? If so, how? Could you be so kind as to post some links for us? Thanks!
  12. Ok, ladies & gents... the fun's over. This thread is closed. If any of you have any objections, please PM me and we'll consider re-opening it if we see fit.

    Sooner or later, the cat & mouse game has got to end. I think it would be a better result if the internet community would find ways to ostracize and unroot these unethical types of practices, rather than resort to eventual legislative measures (which would prove costly, and likely not very efficient). I think when the industry realises that their pocketbooks are being negatively impacted by the spread of such (IMO, 'malicious enough' ) code - then they will be forced to react. Take Armat for example, don't you think he's going to think twice about pulling out his credit card next time he wants to purchase something on-line? After that kind of experience, I certainly would hesitate.... <_<

    Computer Help

    They're greek by the looks of it but I'm sure you figured that out. I don't read greek myself, so I have no idea why you're getting emails. Perhaps someone's used your email address and registered at their site? Unfortunately, there's not a lot you can do about this... Once someone (by error, I think) registered for a local swinger group using my email address - should have seen the resposes i received oh boy! At least yours are just Greek Armenians...
  15. Oh, and BTW, I finallly got yet nother Yahoo ID and I'm registered to play!
  16. We don't want no deadbeats though! It sucks when the best player on the field belongs to a team that hasn't even looked at his/her roster all season. Plus it's more interesting trade/waiver - wise when teams are more active.

    Glad you found a solution to your problem! These kinds of 'pests' are truly more than a nuisance. If things go the way they're going, we'll need some sort of legislated privacy protection as individual computer users. Of coure, with that we'll get some undesired rules & regulations - but I think it will eventually be necessary... gradually we'll begin to put ourselves under the watchful eye of Big Brother (and all this because of unethical Marketers!!)
  18. Interesting, but brief article on Ireland's positing in the rankings.
  19. yeah, but you're not a woman.

    Cookbook

    Hey everyone! At long last, we're launching the We've already got over 150 recipes from all types of cuisine - but of course, we need more. So please make your contributions, and especially Armenian recipes!! At the end of the year, Mosjan is inviting us all over to his house for a cook-off, but we can only use recipes from the cook book! Enjoy everyone!
  22. HERE's the thread. I guess we didn't really talk about it much - but Azat did bring it to our attention.
