Life in the Slow Lane; Rural Residents Are Frustrated by Sluggish Web Access and a Scarcity of Local Information Online
Published: May 18, 2000
(Page 2 of 3)
Trish Primrose, a spokeswoman for AOL, said the company offered consumers who could not dial in to the service with a local number an alternative plan in which they could sign up with local I.S.P.'s and connect to AOL through their I.S.P.'s at a reduced rate of $9.95 per month.
In the last few years, many rural communities have connected to the Internet through small local I.S.P.'s that sprang up to fill a need. The local I.S.P. is the only access available for a toll-free call in many areas because the larger I.S.P.'s have opted not to invest in the installation of network equipment in those areas.
John Nunn, for example, started Twin County Internet Access, an I.S.P., in 1996 because he and his neighbors in Galax, Va., in the southwest corner of the state, were paying long-distance charges for access to I.S.P.'s like AOL and Netcom.
Mr. Nunn was also frustrated because there was little local information online. Mr. Nunn's I.S.P. provided local users with links to Virginia newspapers and even had its own advice column, ''Ask the Blonde,'' written by a local schoolteacher. (He has since sold the I.S.P. to NetAccess, a regional I.S.P.)
But as broadband D.S.L. and cable Internet access spreads to metropolitan areas and suburbs, rural I.S.P.'s that were started to provide basic dial-up service find that they cannot meet the demand for faster access. Instead, they are usually forced to wait until their local phone networks or cable companies decide that their markets are worth the investment.
The Mendocino Community Network, an I.S.P. in Mendocino, Calif., with about 5,000 customers, was built in part to foster economic growth in the community, which is about 125 miles north of San Francisco.
The Mendocino Community Network provides community residents with 150 hours of local dial-up access for $19.95 per month, and it donates I.S.P. services to local nonprofit organizations. The I.S.P. also functions as an active community service, featuring local news and events on its Web page and sending out electronic newsletters from movie theater and store owners. But without broadband Internet access, the community is at a disadvantage, said the network's manager, Rennie Innis.
''One of the biggest complaints is the slow speed of the phone lines,'' Mr. Innis said. ''D.S.L. or cable access would be a real gift because how you operate your business depends on what the technology will allow. It's not just about faster speeds -- it's about people living where they want to live and still maintaining an urban quality job.''
D.S.L. service is limited to customers who live within about three miles of a telephone company central office, which is more of a problem in rural areas than in cities or suburbs. But D.S.L. providers say new technology will help ease the distance limitations before the end of the year.
''We'll break through those limitations, which will justify a further reach into rural areas from an economic standpoint,'' said Hank Carabelli, president and chief operating officer of @Link Networks, based in Louisville, Colo., which sells broadband services to regional I.S.P.'s and businesses.
Some broadband providers, like New Edge Networks and DSL.net, specialize in providing D.S.L. service to smaller markets through line-sharing agreements with local telephone companies and reseller agreements with local, regional and national I.S.P.'s. Although they are still in the testing stages, wireless technologies like multichannel multipoint distribution services and satellites are seen by some in the industry as effective ways to offer high-speed Internet access to rural areas without incurring the high costs of installing networks.
Sprint Broadband Wireless Group is test-marketing Sprint Broadband Direct in Phoenix, a multichannel multipoint service the company says is 36 times as fast as a regular dial-up connection. It relies on radio transmission rather than phone or cable lines, and it works with a two-way digital transceiver installed on a rooftop that is pointed toward a radio tower to send and receive signals. Although the service is designed to reach people who do not have D.S.L. or cable access, it has a 35-mile limit, which does not help many rural residents.
Some people in rural areas are hopeful about satellite technology, which does not pose the same distance limitations as other broadband solutions. Hughes Network Systems, which has about 8.5 million subscribers on its DirectTV satellite service, said it expected to add two-way high-speed Internet access later this year. ''We discovered we could hit a low cost for this two-way terminal and offer it to consumers for about the same cost as a dial-up account,'' said Paul Gaske, executive vice president of the Consumer Division at Hughes. Prices have not been announced.
The two-way transmission will work with an antenna that transmits and receives satellite data. Downloading will run at 400K; uploading, 128K to 256K.
Regardless of what speeds are involved, larger I.S.P.'s have generally been slower than local and regional I.S.P.'s in building their networks to provide rural residents with local Internet access. There are a few larger I.S.P.'s, however, that are focusing specifically on rural markets.

A Forgotten Man, Left Behind Again
TAMPA, Fla.—Boxes are stacked around the Yankee clubhouse, slowly filling with gear as players pack up and get ready to head north for the season.
Pedro Feliciano enters the room, and quietly steps around them on his way to his locker, sweaty and tired from throwing to strengthen his surgically repaired shoulder. As he does most days, he goes to his locker, rarely interacts with his teammates, showers and goes home.
It's a routine he has repeated every day for months, and for most of last year. And it's one he will perform for many more days, until he can get back on a mound and pitch again—and prove that his career is not over, as some fear it is.
"It's not easy," said Rafael Soriano, who occupies the locker next to Feliciano. "I don't know how he does it. And to come back again for spring training, and he knows he can't be with the team right now, and the team is packing to go, and he has to stay—it's not easy."
Feliciano arrived in New York in 2011 on a two-year, $8 million deal after eight years with the Mets, and the expectation that he would be the primary lefty against the best left-handed hitters of the American League East, like David Ortiz and Adrian Gonzalez.
Instead, he is a forgotten man. He has never thrown a pitch for New York; shoulder pain and weakness, and then surgery to repair his rotator cuff, have sidelined him. At the time, Yankee GM Brian Cashman said there's a chance the shoulder injury could be career-ending—meaning the Yankees would have paid $8 million for nothing. In the annals of Yankee free-agent signings, names like Carl Pavano and A.J. Burnett stand out for delivering bad performance. But is delivering nothing worse?
Feliciano badly wants to pitch again. So every day, he comes in, quietly suits up, and plays catch under the gaze of coach Billy Connors. There is not even a tentative timetable for his return, though he dreams of August or September.
"I'm a hard worker, and I know I'm going to pitch. Every day and every month, I'm going to get better," he said.
Manager Joe Girardi said that the team believes there's a chance Feliciano could actually contribute this year. "I don't think we would have him here if we didn't think he had a chance to come back. I think he does," Girardi said.
If nothing else, rehab is boring, and lonely. Feliciano said he reads, and prays, and after a full year here, he knows all the best restaurants in Tampa. But it is a grind. Every day Connors must pat him on the back, try to keep his spirits up.
"He's not having fun coming out here. I get with him every day, talk to him every day, make sure he's doing OK," Connors said.
Usually, Connors tries to get rehabbers to focus on the next step. But for Feliciano, there are no next steps. Just throw, and throw, and throw, until it feels stronger.
As he packs up his own boxes, Soriano takes pains to think of Feliciano.
"Every day, I tell him, don't worry, you'll be with us. Do whatever you have to do here, and you're going to be back with us soon," Soriano said.

I have a Nextenta box connected to another Windows 7 machine via iSCSI. It is getting horribly slow average write speeds, but a large active time in the Windows Resource Monitor.
The machines are connected via a cross over cable, so I don't think it's related to network bandwidth. A screenshot of the problem is here: http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/8250/testdr.jpg
What steps can I take to diagnose this?
More Information
Unfortunately this is in a completely remote installation (a remote mining town on the other side of the country - Australia). The people onsite aren't technically literate to swap cables and other tasks. Sending a technician is an option we don't want to use unless we have too. Although I do appreciate it may not be resolvable unless in person.
My reason for assuming that it's not a network issue is due to the fact that it's a crossover cable, which can reliably ping the Nextenta box. There is no packet loss and the response is sub 1ms (even when the slow transfers are occurring in the linked screenshot). So I don't believe (but can't guarantee) that the cable is the issue.
I don't necessarily think that the issue is due to Nextenta. My first assumption is that it may be due to iSCSI in general. As in, maybe there are some obscure Windows settings I need to set to make iSCSI run at a reasonable speed. Browsing the web interface of Nextenta is fast and reliable, again leading me to believe that it's an iSCSI protocol issue.
The intention of using Nextenta in the question was hopefully that someone would reply with "Yeah there is a strange bug with Nextenta version XYZ". However I do think the problem is related to iSCSI (or Nextenta's implementation). What methods can I use for diagnosing poor iSCSI performance?
I apologise for the lack of information in the original question.

Given any Jordan curve, how does one describe the set of all points entirely contained within the interior portion of the curve? I would like a formal explanation and definition of those points other than the "interior of the curve."
The formal way to go about it would be, let $\mathbb R^2$ be the Euclidean plane. Let $C \subset \mathbb R^2$ be the Jordan curve, this is a continuous 1-1 image of a circle into the plane.
Then consider the path components of $\mathbb R^2 \setminus C$. Let $P$ be a path component, then the closure $\overline{P}$ is either compact or non-compact. Moreover, there are precisely two path components of $\mathbb R^2 \setminus C$, one has compact closure, and the other not.
Heuristically (and with some work this can be turned into a proof if $C$ is PL or smooth), given any point $p \in \mathbb R^2 \setminus C$, consider $\{ p + tv : t \geq 0 \}$ where $v$ is a unit vector. "Generically" this ray intersects $C$ in finitely many points. The parity of this number tells you whether or not $p$ is inside or outside of $C$.

Twenty-five teams totaling 81 participants, have taken on the 12-week Biggest Loser Challenge at Baptist Community Services. Seven weeks into the contest participants had already lost more than 700 pounds combined.
Similar to the TV show, participants are competing for the highest percentage of weight loss and weekly weigh-ins are mandatory. However, to encourage team camaraderie, BCS put its own twist on the competition. Teams have the opportunity to earn up to 3 extra pounds of weight loss each week if they eat a healthy meal together at the on-site restaurant, Jackson Square Grill, earn 120 minutes each of exercise and work out as a team at the Amarillo Town Club. In addition, a new twist on the competition will have 10 percent of the prize money donated to the company's Hope Fund, to help employees who may need financial assistance.
And, the entire campus will donate canned goods to the High Plains Food Bank, equivalent in weight to the final weight loss amount.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Sen. Rand Paul launched his 2016 presidential campaign Tuesday with a combative challenge both to Washington and his fellow Republicans, cataloging a lengthy list of what ails America and pledging to "take our country back.
WASHINGTON - Change? For sure. Hope? Maybe not so much.
That's Rand Paul's approach to winning the White House when the original hope-and-change candidate, Barack Obama, vacates it in early 2017.
WASHINGTON — Deep-pocketed donors are turning over multimillion-dollar checks to influence November's elections, and the sums raised by the national parties and their super PAC allies are already approaching the $1 billion mark, according to financial reports still being filed Tuesday evening.
WASHINGTON - A bipartisan compromise on student loans promises better deals for students and parents over the next few years but could spell higher rates as the economy improves.
WASHINGTON - The nation's teacher-training programs do not adequately prepare would-be educators for the classroom, even as they produce almost triple the number of graduates needed, according to a survey of more than 1,000 programs released Tuesday.
WASHINGTON - The one-size-fits-all national requirements of No Child Left Behind would give way to standards that states write for themselves under legislation Senate Democrats announced Tuesday.
WASHINGTON - The White House is downplaying its draft immigration proposal as merely a backup plan if lawmakers don't come up with an overhaul of their own.
WASHINGTON — Student athletes need access to health care professionals, better-trained coaches and up-to-date equipment, a coalition of groups recommended Wednesday in a call to action aimed at protecting the almost 8 million students participating in high school sports each year.
WASHINGTON - The nation's high school graduation rate is the highest since 1976, but more than a fifth of students are still failing to get their diploma in four years, the Education Department said in a study to be released today.
WASHINGTON - Four years ago, the presidential contenders were packing airplane hangars, city squares and college arenas in a sprint to Election Day. This year, the rallies are fewer, the gatherings often smaller.

The Breakfast Baton 21 - John Holland
Our last guest, David Mills, has passed the baton to John Holland.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
These days you'll find John Holland down at his mini golf site at Lake Pertobe, happily watching people making their way around the course and signing hole in one certificates when they get to the end. He describes it as the best job in Warrnambool, and indeed, he's spent a lot of his time here keeping people entertained and making them happy...
Born on a farm just out of Colac, John, along with his twin brother, was the eldest of seven kids. He left school and went to work on the farm when his father had a heart attack, and after the farm was sold, fell into a range of jobs before taking on a position in the relatively new leisure activity known as ten pin bowling. Like all new fads, ten pin bowling went through the roof for a short time before plummeting in popularity, but John stuck with it and, in 1967, found himself involved with the ten pin bowl in Warrnambool.
From there, he added on many other new forms of entertainment including jukeboxes, pin ball machines, and even got a pool table built to kick off another sideline supplying pool tables to pubs and clubs. Not long after he settled in Warrnambool, the opportunity arose to get involved in radio as well, and he spent close to 30 years doing a footy show. He still does commentary for cycling events, although he admits to knowing nothing about the sport!
While on holiday in Adelaide in the 80's, John had the idea of building a mini golf in Warrnambool, and after acquiring some land to do so has been running one now for around 20 years. No doubt there aren't many homes in Warrnambool which don't have one of his hole in one certificates stuck proudly on the fridge somewhere...!

Halloween Town-part 3- ZERO
Who Let the Dog Out? Jack can't seem to find his after-life companion, Zero. Maybe he's run off. Or maybe those monstrous boys of Oogie Boogie are behind his disappearance; since they seem to be missing as well.
Once again, we enter the Forest Cemetary on Court Street in Circleville, Ohio through the main gate. Make a left past the mother Flag and her children. Take a right at the Rausenberger Y. Where is that crazy ghost dog?!! I see a BYRD in the distance to the left and a WOLF to the right-but no sign of Zero. Wait- There's some KIBLERS and WATERS to the left. We must be on his trail. Let's go left along the STOUTS. I see BELLS to the right and another WOLF. Keep going. Make a right at the GRIFFEY's/marker 36. To the right, I see an open door at the COLEMAN's. No, Zero's not in there. He's past the CURTAIN on the left. I do hope he's watching for cars. Is he HEER to the right? No. Go straight at 34-B/34G where you'll find a PLUMMER on the right. What's that at the far right corner of these crossroads? Oh, that's just RUDOLPH. Easy mistake-they both have glowing noses! Travel on forward. I see a LAKE in the distance to the left. Let's go to the LAKE and see if he's there. No sign of Zero so let's travel NW for 18 paces from the LAKE so we can see MOORE. Seeing MOORE, journey on about 9 paces south to the HAMPSHIRE. Looking south from the HAMPSHIRE, I see PARKS. Zero loved the PARKS. Let's go further south about 10 paces to see if he's there. No sign of Zero, but look to the southeast at the big white marker that's been blackened on top from age. Jack and Zero's favorite colors! Travel about 11 paces to this marker. What else could sweep a levitating ghost dog off his feet, causing him to just disappear? Of course- a VALENTINE! I'll bet he's fast asleep in the big pine bush in front of the GOODMAN's!
Now we know where Zero's been hiding, please place back better than found. Hope you've enjoyed!!!--Katiebug
Part 4- Oogie Boogie's Boys
So where are those pesky children of Halloween Town?
From Zero's resting place, step onto the closest road and travel east past several SAMPLE's at your left. Go straight at the crossroads, past the TEEGARDIN of STEELE. Beyond the CURTAINS to your right, make a right at 51E. I see a couple of HORNs to the right, but they don't belong to Lock! Wait- there's a round STOVER to the left. Let's go there. Look behind the round STOVER to the MULLOY. I know how they love snails! They must be close! Aha! Looking up from the snails at the MULLOY, there's a black maple tree. Of course- They are buried at the base of this tree planning to build a new torturous tree house!
Again, hope you've enjoyed and please place back better than found. Happy trails!!! --Katiebug
I believe we've been tricked! It's merely a Halloween Town greeting! So where are the real Shock, Lock, and Barrel? To be continued...

Family Talk Night Light for Couples - Monday, July 25, 2016
Roman Bridges
"The winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock." Matthew 7:25
Yesterday we talked about being committed to your partner for better and for worse. Another way to look at this issue was once related by the late Dr. Francis Schaeffer. He described the bridges that were built in Europe by the Romans in the first and second centuries A.D. The bridges still stand today, despite the unreinforced brick and mortar with which they were made, because they are used for nothing but foot traffic. If an eighteen‐wheel semi were driven across those historic structures, they would crumble in a cloud of dust and debris.
Marriages that lack an iron‐willed determination to hang together are like those Roman bridges. They appear to be secure and may indeed remain upright for many years—until they are put under heavy pressure. Then the supports split and the structure crumbles.
Is your marriage constructed to withstand unusual stress as well as normal wear? Take the time to install a proper foundation—the Lord Jesus Christ. Then build your relationship on habits and attitudes that will sustain it under heavy pressure.
Just between us…
- Has there ever been a time when our marriage seemed less than solid?
- Do we know a couple whose marriage has stayed secure under stress?
- What's their secret? Do we see any cracks—even tiny ones—beginning to appear in our marriage? What can we do to repair them?
Father, we turn to the unshakable truths of Your Word and the unfailing promise of Your presence to hold our marriage together. Thank You that we can live and love securely—even under stress—because You are in this marriage with us. Amen.

I have looked for this in the forums, but so far haven't met an answer I understand!
There is a web site that I have been asked to look at with a view to finishing it off, as it's been abandoned by the previous developer.
The theme is set and includes a small decorative picture frame. Inside this is the Featured Image. But only about a third of it is visible, not because it's too big, but because it's offset - it disappears behind the top left of the frame and doesn't show up outside either.
Where do I find the code to move it?
All I can see so far is the editor page, where I can edit the text. The Featured Image is listed, but there are no tools to alter it in any way.
Many thanks!

Canadian figure skaters cry foul, get rewarded
Well, well. I see that the so-called "sport" of figure skating has created some serious sore losers - a pair of Canadians who filed a complaint with the International Olympic Committee.
Jamie Sale and David Pelletier never would have gotten gold medals without coming up with a complaint, saying they were robbed. By doing this, they opened the door for other international skaters to get gold medals without earning them. Just give the IOC a good reason why you're complaining - like maybe a judge didn't give you a good score, or "we skated better and still didn't get the gold medal," and it goes on from there.
A French judge was suspended for supposed misconduct. Why not just get rid of the judges and make figure-skating a fierce competitor sport with fights and hard hitting, with the winners being the last ones standing. I sure would watch it more often if it had more bloodshed and competitiveness. I don't like figure skating, as it is. It's like Disney On Ice, without the costumes.
Sale and Pelletier think that justice was served. They went on television and said they didn't know what was going on regarding the IOC meeting. Give me a break!
They laughed and joked with reporters. Why didn't these sore losers come out and say they were upset they didn't earn the gold, and they hated the French judge for not giving them a perfect score?
These two should get over it, for crying out loud. They got something they didn't deserve.
Future Olympic ice skaters: Don't forget the Canadian motto for getting a gold medal: If you think you're being cheated, start to cry. Complain to the IOC, and something gold will flash in front of your eyes.

The first LinuxWorld Conference & Expo ever in Australia
March 2006 saw the first LinuxWorld Conference & Expo ever in Australia. The event was held in perfect weather over three days in Sydney.
LinuxWorld Australia had a combination of excellent speakers and a genuine effort to cater to business and government. There was also some strong community participation in LinuxWorld, which really showed business and government representatives the value of the community itself. LinuxWorld came to Australia at an excellent time, when businesses and Government agencies are becoming keenly interested in FOSS but are struggling to find vendor-neutral information. LinuxWorld provided that opportunity, and we saw at the event many people who hadn't had their needs catered to in the past.

I had used my mom's sweet potato recipe for years claiming it to be the best. I've, now, concluded this recipe near perfection. Oops, did I just reveal my disloyalty to the entire world wide web? Made for A-NZ #47.
This is fantastic good. I adapted the filling for a diabetic and it's a very adaptable and forgiving recipe. I made just the filling and in a 1/2 pie amount using 1/8 cup of Splenda Brown Sugar and regular Splenda for the white sugar, 1/4 cup of EggBeaters. I used fat free evaporated milk for the whipping cream and low fat sour cream with 1/2 to 3/4 tsp of rum extract (I didn't measure that exactly). I baked it it @ 350 for about 45 mins and YUMMM. You have a wonderful creation BK. I wanted to take pix for you but my neighbors were here and as they are both diabetic also ....well, I had to share *sigh*. I'll make this again and be sure to take a pic or 3. I might add that the neighbors left with my adapted recipe.
Beautiful and wonderful holiday pie! My guests couldn't be happier! This is going into my holiday list of must-make pies. Thanks, Baby Kato! Made for Photo Tag.
