Use a Dedicated Security Email Address
For additional security, you can have LastPass send security-related emails to a special security email address instead of your normal email address. For example, password hint emails, account recovery emails, and multifactor authentication disable emails will all be sent here.
This email should be an extra-secure email address only you know about – if someone gains access to your day-to-day email account, they won’t be able to access your LastPass vault without access to your security email account.
Faced this wacko wierd problem where Visio objects were not moving with arrow keys instead the whole diagram was moving. Finally discovered after reading online that if the scroll lock is ON, visio exhibits this behavior.
Must know for web developers. Many batch tools are available in imagemagick. convert and mogrify are both great! sudo apt-get imagemagick will get you going
bash$ for i in *.jpg
do
convert -scale ’48×38′ $i TN_$i
echo $i processed
done
mogrify -format jpg -quality ‘95%’ *.tiff (bulk-conversion)
For more optimized images use the following:
bash$ for i in *.jpg
do
djpeg $i | pnmscale -xysize 48 38 | cjpeg -opti -progr -qual ‘75%’ > TN_$i
echo $i processed
done

Don’t miss to click the ‘Connect Cable’. It is available on clicking the Network Icon on the Virtual Box Frame. See Image
Hit the properties key on your keyboard (standard key for PC keyboards). That shows the right click menu. Alternately right click using mouse.
Then hit A then B. This gives a nice 3 key short cut sequence.
better than nothing!
You can update linked fields by selecting them and then pressing F9. You can also select all (by using CTRL+A) and press F9 to update all your fields. However, Dani discovered that footnotes will only update using this method if you first put the cursor in the footnotes area. Then pressing CTRL+A and F9 will update everything. Odd, but it works.

XML is pervasive these days. Notepad++ is delightful. How to make the best of both?
Use XML Tools, the XML oriented plugin set for Notepad++. Installing it can be a bit of a pain (not too much though). Here are the quick steps:
- Download xmltools_xyz.zip from the Notepad++ Plugins page (http://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-plugins/files/)
- Close and start Notepad ++ (if you had it open) or just start it.
- Drop the dll file into the plugins directory (look where you installed Notepad++ most probably C:Program FilesNotepad++)
- Now you should see XML Tools showup under the Plugins menu. It will however complain saying ext_libs are required. It will also provide links to download them. One option is from the author’s website, another is from sourceforge. I preferred the author’s site.
- Download libxml2-xyz.zip, zlib-xyz.zip,libxslt-xyz.zip,iconv-xyz.zip from the authors website.
- Go into the bin folder of each of these zip extracts and pickup the dll. Drop them in the root directory of Notepad++ (a level above plugins)
- You should be all set to rock!
