A little translation I made back in the "old" days

The Echoing Green
by William Blake

The sun does arise,
And make happy the skies;
The merry bells ring
To welcome the spring;
The skylark and thrush,
The birds of the bush,
Sing louder around
To the bell's cheerful sound,
While our sports shall be seen
On the Echoing Green.

Old John with white hair,
Does laugh away care,
Sitting under the oak,
Among the old folk.
They laugh at our play,
And soon they all say:
"Such, such were the joys
When we all, girls and boys,
In our youth time were seen
On the Echoing Green."

Till the little ones, weary,
No more can be merry;
The sun does descend,
And our sports have an end.
Round the laps of their mothers
Many sisters and brother,
Like birds in their nest,
Are ready for rest,
And sport no more seen
On the darkening Green.


Разиграни зеленила
By Me :)

Сонцето изгреа,
и облаците; среќно изгледаа;
Среќните ѕвона среќно ѕвонеа
За да ја добредојдат Пролетта;
Чучулигите и дроздовите;
птиците од грмушките;
пееја наоколу и беа гласни
на звуците од ѕвоната прекрасни,
и нашите игри се гледаа
на разиграните зеленила.

Стариот Џон, со коса бела,
грижата ја пади со смеа,
под дабот седејќи,
меѓу старите вејќи.
Тие на играта наша се смееја,
и наскоро си велеа:
„Такви, такви беа веселбите наши
кога сите ние, девојки и машки,
во младоста наша видени бевме
на разиграните зеленила.”

Додека изморените мали,
не можеа да шират шали;
сонцето брзо си пројде,
и на игрите наши крајот им дојде.
Во мајчинските прегратки
Многу сестри и браќа,
како птици во гнездо,
за одмор се спремни,
и игра повеќе не беше видена
на оцрнувачките зеленила.



Hope you like it :)

Back up your MSN

You know how awful can it be when you must format your PC or when you want to use your old MSN emotions on a new PC. Here is how you can back up your MSN emotions and your MSN messenger files (note, this doesn't backups the archive i.e. history conversations you've had. The history of your conversations (if such selected to be recorded in the MSN settings) can be found in %SYSTEM ROOT%/Documents and Settings/%USER/%USER's Documents%/My Received files/History. For e.g., if your windows user name is Alan, and you have the windows files installed on C:. then the path should be:
C:\Documents and Settings\Alan\My Documents (or Alan's documents if your are entering from another windows user name) \My received files\history

Here is how to backup your other MSN settings:
For making a back up, and finding the .dat files (the emotions) just follow the steps accordingly.
How to back up Messenger content:
To save a copy of the content that is associated with a member ID, follow these steps.
Note: You can re-download the purchased content from the partner Web site, so you do not have to back up this content.
1. Sign out of Windows Live Messenger (or Windows Messenger 7.5).
2. Start Windows Explorer:
a. By pressing the windows button +E
b. Click – “Start”, click on “Run” and type “explorer”
Or
c. Click "Start," point to "All Programs," point to "Accessories," and then click "Windows Explorer."
3. Create a folder where you will save the image:
a. In Windows Explorer, click the folder in which you want to create the new folder.
b. On the "File" menu, click "New," and then click "Folder."
c. Type a name for the folder.
4. In Windows Explorer, click "Folder Options" on the "Tools" menu, and then click the "View" tab. In the "Advanced Settings" box, select the "Show hidden files and folders" check box.
5. Clear the "Hide extensions for known file types" check box, and then click "OK".
6. Use Windows Explorer to access the Windows Live Messenger (or the Windows MSN 7.5) folder.
a. Locate the Application Data folder: Click "Start", click "Run", type "%appdata%", and then click "OK". The Application Data folder will be opened in Windows Explorer.
b. From the %appdata% folder, use the following path to locate the MSN Messenger folder:
%appdata%\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
Note: %appdata% represents the location of the Application Data folder.
7. To back up the data associated with yourname@hotmail.com go to the folder with MSN ID number inside the MSN Messenger folder (since the MSN user names i.e. email addresses are coded into numbers (MSN ID numbers), you have to find your own number. If you are using your PC all by yourself, this will be easy to find. But if you want to copy your MSN emotions and other content from an internet cafe or multi-user computer, I advice either writing to MSN support center or try finding out your own folder by luck).
The folder with the ID number has sub folders that store the user tile (display picture, custom emoticons, backgrounds). Select the folder whose data you wish to back up.
8. Open each .dat file in Microsoft Internet Explorer to view each picture.
9. Follow these steps for each picture that you want to copy:
a. Click to select the picture, right-click the picture, and then click "Copy."
b. In Windows Explorer, click the folder that you created to store the image.
c. Right-click the folder, and then click "Paste."
d. Click to select the picture, right-click the picture, and then click "Rename" to rename the picture.
Note: Replace the .dat extension with .gif when you rename the picture.

Here’s how to transfer content from one computer to another computer

Note: Purchased content must be re-downloaded on the new computer. This content cannot be copied to the new computer.
1. Locate the content that you want to transfer to the other computer.
a. Use Windows Explorer to view the Windows Live Messenger (or Windows MSN 7.5) folder.
i. Locate the Application Data folder: Click "Start", click "Run", type "%appdata%", and then click "OK". The Application Data folder will open in Windows Explorer.
ii. From the %appdata% folder, use the following path to locate the MSN Messenger folder:
%appdata%\Microsoft\MSN Messenger
Note: %appdata% represents the location of the Application Data folder.
b. To back up the data associated with your_name@hotmail.com go to your_MSN_ID_number inside the MSN Messenger folder. The MSN_ID_number folder has sub folders that store the user tile (display picture, custom emoticons, backgrounds). Select the folder whose data you wish to back up.
2. Copy each file from the desired folder onto a disk or onto a CD.
3. Sign in to Messenger on the destination computer. Add the content from the disk or CD to Messenger on the destination computer by following the steps in the section "How to Add Messenger content." *(actually replace the files from the CD or the disk with the files that are currently in your “%appdata%” folder).

Hope this information was useful to you all.

MSN emotions

Hello,
I know that most of the ppl nowadays use msn and it is good to customize you msn with some emotions, not considering the basic ones.
Here are the emotions I regularly use - I call them - basic msn emotions pack :)...
I have around 200 emotions, but these are the ones I most like. I recently wanted to back up my emotions (because I needed them transferred on my other pc, so I wrote msn support and they told me how to do the back up-I'll write some other day for backing up your msn data)...
Well, without further ado, here are the emotions
You can download them on like this:
Right click - save picture as or save image as (depending on the browser you're using) and save the image on your PC. Then add the gif animation on your msn by doing this: go to: tools -> emotions -> create, then select the downloaded gif animation and type the keyboard shortcut for your emotion. The emotions here are named the same as the keyboard shortcuts I use (but those are Macedonian ones :P), in the brackets I type the English translation :D
