A powerful, poignant, provocative drama, it gets its strength from its dispassion, from an uncompromising determination to explain rather than justify or condemn, to put a human face on incomprehensible acts. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/40900684/forward http://www.furl.net/item/40900684 Tue, 16 Dec 2008 13:16:34 GMT General Religion MiddleEast The Lost History of Christianity, The Thousand-Year Golden Age of the Church in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Philip Jenkins HarperOne, 2008 285 pp., $26.95 After three noteworthy books that shook up perceptions of the Christian present, Philip Jenkins is now proposing to shake up the Christian past. Where his much-noticed The Next Christendom (2002) and The New Faces of Christianity (2006) charted the recent emergence of Christian movements in the non-West and introduced their dynamic engagement with Scripture, God's Continent: Christianity, Islam, and Europe's Religious Crisis (2007) suggested that much conventional wisdom about religion in contemporary Europe needed serious re-thinking. Now in The Lost History of Christianity, Jenkins turns his attention to the experience of Christians in the greater Middle East—which, he argues, has been systematically neglected in the general accounts of standard church history. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/40756181/forward http://www.furl.net/item/40756181 to get archives of past topics, add /YYYY to main URL Fri, 12 Dec 2008 10:04:58 GMT General Debate Central is an online resource created and maintained by the National Center for Policy Analysis for high school students researching the nationwide high school debate topic. 3 http://www.furl.net/item/40755987/forward http://www.furl.net/item/40755987 Fri, 12 Dec 2008 09:54:28 GMT General Browse through 85 billion web pages archived from 1996 to a few months ago.

From past experience the delete never or rarely happens and these files build up very quickly. The registry contains the location of these files and has the security set. If you search for these files in Windows Explorer they will not be found as they are hidden even if you have the show hidden system files checked. The bad part is they are easily accessible from the command prompt if you know where to look. Many of them have the attribute set to read only. At the command prompt you can copy any of these files easily so many people end up with supposedly secure documents from there email just setting in this hidden folder. Anyone with access to the command prompt can easily access them to do anything they want and this leaves a big security hole. My solution to this for our organization was a simple little batch file that everyone can run frequently and keep these documents deleted from there system. At this point I have not had to automate this for our people but I am sure there are many ways this could be done or scripted. Using any of the internet options to delete temporary files or using the disk cleanup utility does not remove any of these hidden files. I had everyone create a shortcut to there desktop for easy access and a reminder to run it frequently. The batch file contains the following entries: cd local settings cd temporary internet files cd olk* dir *.* > c:\outlooktempfilelist.txt %systemroot%\system32\notepad.exe C:\outlooktempfilelist.txt ATTRIB -R *.* dir del *.* To keep it simple so that it would not need to be customized for each user this batch file must be placed in the users C:\Documents and Settings\(users name) folder. 3
