Let's get ready to RUMBLE!!!
Friday Night is once again FIGHT NIGHT in The SSG Battle of the Machines!
In tonight's classic contest it is actually a rematch of a fight that was earlier and more formally called The Battle Of Hoth! - You might have heard of it.
"All troops will debark for ground assault!"
"Attack pattern Delta! Go now!"
With armor too strong for blasters, the towering AT-AT Snow Walker could probably carry over a half-dozen snowtrooper action figures into combat in its troop carrier section, while under the command of the exclusive packed-in AT-AT Driver and AT-AT Commander (as close as we've come to General Veers' proper figure) seated in the cockpit. From there they can command the fully poseable behemoth machine's 4 giant legs, jointed in three points of articulation on each. Covering them, are the remote operated chin guns that fire with the air-piercing sound effects and red "laser" flashes one would come to expect from the firepower of this war machine. But that's not all: side-mounted anti-aircraft cannons feature missle tubes with launching projectiles capable of descimating any Rebel defenses! A remote lever in the transport section controls the aiming and directional tracking of the metal beasts head, and a electronic, backlit communications and tactical station replays dialog from the movie, and features the bone-crunching thunder a walker's legs make in action, as well as the terror-striking sound of many needle-like barrages of the walker's smaller artillery cannons.
Up against seemingly impossible odds is a Rebel Craft that might surprise you with its extraordinary resources that make it one of the only vehicles in the Rebel arsenol that actually has been proven effective at taking Imperial Walkers down! "Rogue Group: use your harpoons and tow cables! It may be our only chance at stopping them!" True enough, though the Electronic Rebel Armored SnowSpeeder features two powerful blaster cannons backed with electronic sound effects and red laser flashes on one model, it was the spring loaded harpoon gun and tow cable that could be twisted around (at least one of) the AT-AT's legs to attempt to pull it down. It takes two brave crewmen to handle these airspeeders and the toy seats two: a pilot and a tailgunner. The latest version of this craft saw its release with not only Luke Skywalker packed in, but the first ever action figure of Dak Ralter! It is doubtful the newer version will feature any electronics, including the cool fly-by sound effect included on the earlier one. But available online images show the packaging to be something extraordinary in itself in the latest release, the second-time around for this classic craft in the modern collection.
Now the battle is in your hands. Choose either the Imperial AT-AT or whichever Rebel Armored Snowspeeder you have the highest regard for, and decide which TOY would survive the battle to be YOUR FAVORITE! Keep coming back to see if the craft you like best can make it to the next round!

Family: Sciuridae, Squirrels view all from this family
Description A large prairie dog with a black tail tip. Contact call between individuals is a we-oo. Burrow entrances are surrounded by a large mound of dirt shaped into domes.
Dimensions 360-430mm, 70-90mm, 575-1490g; / 340-400mm, 60-90mm, 765-1030g
Habitat Grasslands & prairies
Range Plains, Rocky Mountains, Southwest, Texas
Discussion Dormant in winter, but does not truly hibernate, and can be seen above ground on warm winter days. Clips vegetation very short around colonies for an unobstructed view. Has the most complex social behavior of all prairie dogs. Prior to settlement of the west, very large colonies called towns were huge, with the largest estimated to contain 400 million individuals covering 65,000km_. Lives at high densities where not persecuted. Prefers shortgrass to mid-grass prairies.

Family: Corvidae, Crows, Magpies, Jays view all from this family
Description ADULT Has glossy, all-black plumage with a relatively long bill. In flight, note the rather long, fan-shaped tail. JUVENILE Similar, but has an brown tinge overall to plumage.
Dimensions Length: 17" (43 cm)
Habitat Widespread resident of coastal southeastern U.S. Seldom seen far from water, typically favoring coastal beaches, lagoons, and estuaries, but increasingly seen further inland on shores of lakes and rivers.
Observation Tips Easy to see, but challenging to identify with absolute certainty until you learn to distinguish its call from that of American Crow.
Range Great Lakes, Florida, Texas, New England, Mid-Atlantic, Plains, Southeast
Voice Utters a weak nasal cah-hah.
Discussion Southeastern coastal counterpart of American Crow and extremely similar to that species, which is otherwise marginally larger. Crow aficionados can detect Fish Crow's more slender bill, relatively longer wings and tail, and more extensive gloss to plumage; in flight, note the Fish Crow's more pointed wingtips and faster wingbeats. But in most instances specific identification is most reliably based on call; that of Fish Crow is more nasal than American Crow. An opportunistic feeder that is typically found on coasts, but increasingly on margins or lakes and rivers. Sexes are similar.

The accomplishments of the Hope College women's basketball program this season has not gone unnoticed by the peers of coach Brian Morehouse who has been named the Russell Athletic/WBCA District Coach of the Year for the second time in three years.
As the honoree from the Great Lakes Region, Morehouse is now one of eight candidates for the Division III national coach of the year.
The Flying Dutch posted the first undefeated regular season in Hope women's basketball history and this weekend will carry a 29-0 record into the second round of the NCAA Division III tournament.
In seven years as coach, Morehouse has guided the Flying Dutch to a 153-41 record. The team has won four consecutive MIAA championships with a overall record during that span of 92-11.
Morehouse was also named the WBCA region coach of the year in 2000-01 and in 2001-02 was voted the Michigan Collegiate women's basketball coach of the year by the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan.

Who'd ever have thought of Loyola Sullivan as just your regular working stiff?
Well, I'm willing to believe at this point that Sullivan carries his lunch to work at Ocean Choice International in a brown paper bag, clocks out at midday for exactly 30 minutes to gobble down a ham and cheese sandwich and a can of Vienna sausages, and tops it off with a raisin square and healthy swig from his Thermos® of sweet tea before heading back to the assembly line.
And you can be sure that when the whistle blows at the end of the shift, he heads off to the local tavern with the rest of the lunch-bucket brigade for a few brew and a vigorous debate about the issues of the day. Whether, for instance, the Leafs will make the playoffs or why it was that washed-up pop singer Whitney Houston was accorded the sort of funeral sendoff you might expect for Nelson Mandela.
Just an ordinary, run-of-the-mill employee, that's what Loyola Sullivan tried to convince all of us last week in a performance that was near farcical, right up there in Codco territory, as the former politician turned himself inside out while arguing there was no conflict of interest between his job with Ocean Choice and his former position as Canadian Ambassador for Fisheries Conservation (the plum dropped from the Tory patronage tree by Stephen Harper into Sullivan's lap about a month after he "retired" from provincial politics).
How could there possibly be a conflict when Sullivan, as he said again and again and again, was just an ordinary worker, "one of thousands out there" employed by Ocean Choice? Yes, his two brothers, Blaine and Martin, run OCI, but Loyola was not to be viewed, under any circumstances, as his brothers' keeper. He and company policy were not to be mentioned in the same breath.
Sullivan kept a straight, albeit red face, as he made those comments about being just one of the b'ys, just a member of the rank and file, just an employee, after giving the key note address at a meeting of employers, a speech he gave behind a podium with the word "employer" conspicuously marked across its front (again, Codco couldn't have scripted the scene any better).
And then there was this juicy tidbit of startling, earth-shattering information to reporters grilling him about the conflict of interest questions: he goes to work at 8:30 and doesn't get off until five or six and sometimes works "into the night." Well, now, if I was Loyola, I'd contact Earle McCurdy and see if he can join the union after working those kinds of outrageous hours. (Might be a bit awkward, though, filing a grievance against Martin and Blaine).
Even when asked what he felt about the fact that OCI has hired scabs (replacement workers, as euphemistically described by the company) to work aboard the Newfoundland Lynx, Sullivan stuck to his guns, stuck to his assessment that he's just an ordinary foot soldier with his brothers' company, that he could never speak for the company.
So I guess we'll have to believe, as well, that Loyola never talks policy with his brothers, even over Sunday dinner. Maybe they yak about what a great hockey player Andy Sullivan was. Or how the Shore has changed. Or what a jerk Martin thinks the before-mentioned McCurdy is. But talk of fish? That's a no-no. The managing brothers Sullivan would never, under any circumstances, discuss such heavy matters with a mere employee.
And if Sullivan happens to bump into government people he associated with during his tenure as fisheries ambassador, well, sir, they'd better steer clear of any talk of policy that might affect the Sullivan brothers' company.
To tell the truth, I don't know whether Sullivan is in a conflict of interest.
He says he's been officially told by the powers that rule in these matters that such is not the case.
But I am sure of something: Sullivan has shown us all that once a politician, always a politician, forever the spinner.
And after listening to him last week, you couldn't help but think (with an altering of the gender) of that Shakespearean quote: the gentleman doth protest too much, methinks.

Journal Journal: I'm working on OpenStack now...
Deal with it.
Deal with it.
Ruby is standing stronger than ever.
By this metric Java is still kicking everyone's butts. Also... *all* programming languages are "dying".
I've been around the block enough times to know that if you want to survive as a programmer you had better damn well learn to program. And not in just one language, you need to know a survey of language types. Ruby is just one type in the same category as Python and Javascript. If you really want to survive 20 years as a programmer (like I did) you need to branch out more.
Now, you kids get off my lawn.
I think Andy is complaining about the bad CS degree mills that I've run into. I am definitely in the camp that a CS degree should be *harder* to get. That said, we should probably re-evaluate our interview process as an industry. Instead of grilling a kid on if he has skill X
If you can't attract smart, competent, and motivated people
Now that you mention it, I *can* hang around for DAYS on wifi. My record so far is two and a half *days* on wifi. But, I usually use the phone as a mobile computer while traveling. In those situations it's a little TV for around 4 to 5 hours and it's a phone for 2 to 4 hours during lay overs and while navigating airports. For several hours before and after, it's a GPS... but it gets to be plugged into a car during those times.
I bought a triple sized battery for my 4G phone. My phone is friggin' enormous now... but I can use it on 4G for 12 to 16 hours. I have yet to completely kill it... even while using it on coast to coast flights.
Maybe we could have "fund a reporter" sites where we the people would give money to the reporter we liked best.
Yes... bitches. Now give me a bonus.
I don't know how effective a marketing ploy it would be for the general population but the Pandora versus Pandora|ONE marketing trick worked on me.
If you don't know, Pandora works like this: you get a certain amount of "radio" for free with advertisements. If you want more than that amount (something like 40 hours a month or so I think) then you can elect to pay $30 a year for unlimited commercial free "radio".
If there was a service that delivered premium news content like that
I can feel the FUD storm building...
I remember when I was in grad school 10 years ago the experimental 3D systems would give me horrible headaches after a few hours of use. I remember thinking that if we shipped 3D systems like those to average consumers it would be a disaster. Other grad students reported vertigo and one even vomited after an extended session.
The saving grace of these systems might be that they aren't fully immersive so you would avoid the vertigo we felt standing inside the CAVE. The headaches came from the shutter systems we used. I'm glad 3D in theaters today uses some sort of polarized light these are much more pleasant to look at.
I think as long as 3D remains a "treat" instead of a default experience we'll be okay. The fact remains that no matter what the system used to produce 3D illusions on 2D surfaces we are ultimately causing a pair of binocular eyes to see objects that are not there. Seeing things that aren't there just sounds bad for you.
Well, I *never* take anything on slashdot seriously myself.
This same site is reporting the TSA has integrated full body scanners with Facebook.
Now, if Slashdot wishes to be taken as seriously as Wonder-Tonic or The ONION
I wouldn't ascribe that level of intelligence (or malice) to a professor from Iowa.
I put forward the same offer (and I'm not anonymous) with the caveat that I get a major share of the corporation built around the idea I select.
Just remember who will have the power in our working relationship. Me. You can't make your idea real. I can.
By way of analogy...
I already have the sword. Your idea might be for a gun. Last I checked, a real sword beats and imaginary gun.
If someone can truly send me a great idea that 'just needs a programmer', I will commit to writing the code. Out of the hundreds of 'ideas' that I get pitched 99% of them are already done (and often better than their plans), the 'idea owners' haven't even taken the time to review the market. Additionally, rarely does an 'idea' just need a programmer, it typically needs lots of capital to get over the hump of turning and idea into reality.
If your idea can pass a few simple questions
- How large is the potential market?
- Has this idea been done before, what makes it unique? It is patented, patentable?
- What have you invested in it?
My offer stands.
Yes, a lot of self-described "idea guys" have lousy ideas and aren't interested in details like programming. Is perhaps the thesis here that idea guys can be taught to program, but mere programmers can't be taught to have ideas? Because that's a bit insulting.
Very insightful. Somehow, I had missed the implicit insult. However, I think the insult was accidental. The author is trying to convince these oh-so-bright "idea guys" that they are oh-so-bright and can make their ideas come true themselves. The desired effect is these oh-so-bright "idea guys" will discover just how outlandish it is to think that three inexperienced graduate students could recreate all the functionality of Windows 7 using Javascript and HTML5.

Manufacturer: Hi-Fi Racks
The Akorner XL offers the same trademark elegance and excellent sound quality as the Podium XL, but in a convenient corner-fitting unit. The Akorner XL shares many features with its rectangular cousin, including the same 40mm thick solid hardwood plinths and 46mm2 legs, giving it sturdiness and strength.
As with all our products, each rack is individually handmade in our workshop to either a standard size or the specified dimensions of your choice. The Akorner XL is a modular rack which can be adapted with new tiers or different leg lengths as you change or add to your AV equipment over time.
A new feature for the Akorner XL is an optional cable management system (from £75) that keeps your TV and other AV cables tucked away tidily and safely.
Don't forget that the leg length includes the isolation spike

Family: Labridae, Wrasses view all from this family
Description The tautog or blackfish (tÙ'tÙg', -tŏg', tÙ-tÙg', -tŏg'), Tautoga onitis, is a fish of the wrasse family found in salt water from Nova Scotia to Georgia. It lives along the bottom, in and amongst rocks, wrecks, mussel beds, bridge pilings or other bottom features.
Barlett (1848) wrote " is an Indian word, and may be found in Roger Williams' Key to the Indian Language." The name is from the Narragansett language, originally tautauog (pl. of taut). It is also called a "black porgy" (cf. Japanese black porgy), "chub" (cf. the freshwater chub) , "oyster-fish" (in North Carolina) or "blackfish" (in New York/New Jersey, New England).
Tautog are brown and dark olive, with white blotches, and have plump elongated bodies. They have an average weight of 1 to 3 lb (0.45 to 1.4 kg) and reach a maximum size of 3 ft (0.91 m), 25 pounds (11 kg).
Tautog have many adaptations to life in and around rocky areas. They have thick rubbery lips and powerful jaws. The backs of their throats contain a set of teeth resembling molars. Together these are used to pick and crush prey such as mollusks and crustaceans. Their skin also has a rubbery quality with a heavy slime covering, which helps to protect them when swimming among rocks.
Dimensions Up to 3' (91 cm); 21 1/2 lbs (9.8 kg).
Habitat Ocean or bay shallows, Estuaries, tidal flats & salt marshes, Tidepools.
Range New England, Mid-Atlantic, Southeast, Eastern Canada.
