This was an interesting article from the BBC.
Cyber bullies
It said that “More than a third of 12 to 15-year-olds have faced some kind of cyberbullying, according to a BBC government study.” “Schools have been told they can confiscate mobile phones and how to get hurtful material pulled from websites.” There is something called ‘Happy slapping’ I am certainly glad my name is not the name of the person in the article. “Schools Secretary Ed Balls said cyber bullying was “insidious” and had grown with technology and changes in society.” “Schools needed to get to grips with newer forms of bullying, he said. “
Mr. Balls said this to a BBC writer maybe he needs to get a better grip on things also. The writer made this article funny by the persons name not me, I just found how it was written was amusing from the name context. I hope that no one was offended by this material and keep a sense of humor of the naming convention

I always lose the hard drive diagnostic disk when it is in need, it never fails!
I’m lucky that Western Digital or Maxtor have downloads on their sites, and many more manufacturers. If you ever purchase a hard drive from newegg they don’t send the disk with the hard drive and never do. Unlike when you purchase a hard drive from Best buy in the box. I would guess most people know how to format their drives, etc. who get them for their system who order from new egg.
