This child where hollows have bred
A deepening sea of nowhere consumes
And eats away at every living thread

Darkness feeds like a savage inside her
Leaving nothing considered worthy remains
Destined to walk through life less ordinary
Alone, exiled, different and disdained."

Mimsy: Apple software stops connecting to the Internet; Firefox continues fine

Mimsy: Apple software stops connecting to the Internet; Firefox continues fine: "Restarting mDNSResponder fixed the issue, although I expect it’s a temporary fix:

sudo launchctl unload /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
sudo launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist
And now I can use Safari, get e-mail, and use Software Update!

I found those commands, and their explanation, in How is DNS used by individual processes?.

Judging from what I’ve read, dscacheutil and mDNSResponder are using different systems, but they try to synchronize between each other; that might be why dscacheutil had entries that Safari couldn’t resolve. Beyond that, I don’t know"

Mimsy: Apple software stops connecting to the Internet; Firefox continues fine: "A Fix
Just clearing the DNS cache didn’t help me. Neither the command that should work (sudo dscacheutil -flushcache) or the command that had to be used in earlier versions of 10.6 (sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder) had any effect. And the DNS cache appears to have entries:

bash-3.2$ dscacheutil -q host -a name www.google.com
name: www.l.google.com
alias: www.google.com
ip_address: 66.102.7.99
ip_address: 66.102.7.104"

Firefox, iChat, and the command-line1 work fine. I’m editing this blog post right now in Firefox; I can use curl to view the HTML of any page, I can use elinks to view pages, and I can ssh to remote servers. Pinging and traceroute all seem to get through fine.

Network Diagnostics tells me “Your Internet connection appears to be working correctly.”"

Mimsy: Apple software stops connecting to the Internet; Firefox continues fine: "I don’t know what changed, but in the last few days every once in a while I’ll appear to lose my Internet connection on Mac OS X. However, when I look into it I’ll discover that while Apple software—Safari, iTunes, Software Update, and Mail—think my computer is not connected to the net, non-Apple software such as Firefox connect just fine.

I’m currently using Snow Leopard, Mac OS X 10.6.6."

A Crash Course in Using the Mac Terminal

A Crash Course in Using the Mac Terminal: "Useful Terminal Commands
Every software release from Apple brings out some new terminal commands. I don’t know how they find these commands, but they always make their way into the Apple community. They’re usually just boolean commands, meaning you have a string of text with a YES or NO at the end. Either way enables or disables the feature."

This is the info on Facebook Login button

http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/web/

So it will render a Login button, and a user can click on it to log in on Facebook (a log in window will pop up) But after the user logs in, even though the Like or Share buttons work now, but the Log in button still shows.

1) Is there a way to redirect to a URL after the user successfully logs in?
2) Another way is to dynamically change the Log in button to invisible or better yet, show it as "Logged in as [Peter (username)]""
