testing new code variations - assistance needed

  in an attempt to make one of our products here at work function faster and more efficiently, we made a code change today to a key component. the change was made in a java.lax file needed to load the system and required for basic functionality of our product. the code we have inserted is as such: -Dmagic.active(cie)>harrypotter=true this did not fix anything for us. we saw a minor rise in speed and a great deal more processing time being used as if it were attempting to work harder. anyone who knows harrypotter magic and can code, please comment with suggestions as to what may be wrong...

it IS broke

  all last week my boss was working hand in hand with a customer who was having difficulties. kept tellin him that there was a problem with his server and the data contained with in.  this caused the customer to pay someone big money to fix something at which time they said "it aint broken." i worked my ass off with the customer last friday and proved once and fora ll that there is a problem with the service we provide and made it work with a bandaid. since then, no one believes the proof i have laid out for them and i wan to kill them for it. if you are in a supervisory position, there is not an issue with stating you are wrong, just do it so that crap can get fixed...... and when someone rips apart a web page for an hour and a half and says heres the proof, .. read it before you discount it... damn..

shaolin soccer

  YAY! my shaolin soccer package arrived in the mail! i wanted a dvd and was surprised to find that this was a vcd though luckily, it was a factory pressed korean VCD so it plays in my dvd player still, and the quality is awesome! this wont stop me from attempting to locate an english subtitled version of the actual DVD but i am happy all the same, (mainly because the quality is still fantastic, and i didnt pay a whole lot for it.. like $12 plus shipping) my main complaint is that it is on two discs.. mmm when should i watch it.. i wonder...
