System Upgrade Support Call Dear Troubled User: We are sorry that you are experiencing operating system problems and you have a common problem that men complain about. We are here to help! Many men install the upgrade from Wife 1.0 to Girlfriend 7.0, thinking that it is just a Utilities and Entertainment program. Remember that Wife 1.0 is an OPERATING SYSTEM and is designed by its Creator to run EVERYTHING!!! It is also impossible to delete Wife 1.0 and to switch over to Girlfriend 7.0. It is impossible to un-install, or purge the program files from the system once installed. You cannot use Girlfriend 7.0 because Wife 1.0 operating system is designed to not allow this. Look in your Wife 1.0 manual under Warnings section "Child Support and Payments". It is recommend that you keep Wife 1.0 operating system and work on improving and learning the system. It is recommended installing the background auto reply application "Yes Dear - Sorry Dear" to alleviate any software augmentation. When the system is cranky, slow or crashes, the best course of action is to enter the command C:\APOLOGIZE. Ultimately you will have to use the APOLOGIZE command before the Wife 1.0 operating system will return to normal. Wife 1.0 is a great program, but it tends to be very high maintenance. Wife 1.0 comes with several built in support programs, such as "Clean and Sweep" 3.0, "Honey Do" 1.5, and "Pay Bills" 4.2. However, be very careful how you use these programs. Improper use will cause the system to default and launch the program "Nag Nag 9.5". Once this happens, the only way to improve the performance of Wife 1.0 is to purchase additional software. It is recommend purchasing "Flowers 101" and "Diamonds and Jewellery 5.0"! WARNING!!! DO NOT, under any circumstances, download the 30 day free trail or install "Secretary With Short Skirt 3.3" program. This application is recognized as trojan virus and will not be remotely compatible by Wife 1.0. Irreversible damage will be inflicted to your operating system resulting in continued crashing of your system. Trust this solves your Wife 1.0 operating system issues .. have a nice life!

Rotary celebrates World Interact Week By Ryan Hyland

Rotary International News -- 1 November 2011

During World Interact Week, 31 October-6 November, Interactors

and Rotarians worldwide commemorate the charter of the first

Interact club in 1962.

To mark this occasion Interact clubs are encouraged to participate in

joint projects with their sponsor clubs. Rotarians can celebrate by

including Interactors in their weekly meetings, or inviting an

Interactor as a guest speaker.

"Interactors should be celebrating this week by getting together to

review their accomplishments over the past year," says Martin H.F.

Bridge, chair of the RI Rotaract/Interact Committee and member of

the Rotary Club of South Holland, England. "It is a great time to

reflect on the vision of those who started the program nearly 50

years ago."

The success of Interact is crucial for the future of Rotary, says

Bridge. "Interactors will, in time, understand all about Rotary, and

should make good future Rotarians."

In turn, reaching out to Interactors "keeps Rotarians young at heart"

and provides insight into the thoughts and concerns of younger

generations, he added.

Bridge says communication between Rotarians and Interactors is important. Interactors should take every

opportunity to meet with Rotarians in both their sponsoring club and neighboring clubs.

Here’s a roundup of recent Interact service projects, in honor of World Interact Week:

The Rotary Club of Bhavani Koodal, Tamil Nadu, India, sponsors the Interact Club of Government

Deaf School, which plans to conduct fundraising and service projects to help people with hearing

impairments.

The Interact Club of Webster Thomas High School, New York, USA, collected and delivered 34

boxes of clothing, shoes, and sporting goods -- each weighing 50 pounds -- to orphans in the

Dominican Republic. The airline JetBlue waived the baggage fees for the students, who were

traveling to the country to help run a summer camp at the orphanage.

Members of the Interact Club of Juneau-Douglas High School, Alaska, USA, camped outside in

cardboard shanties they had made to raise money and build awareness of homeless students in their

school district. The group raised more than $1,500, which benefited a food pantry and a local

homeless charity.

Interact clubs can showcase their projects by participating in RI's third annual Interact video contest. Learn
