For the past few years I've hosted all my websites in a "special" way:
The webserver I chose initially was thttpd, which gained points because it was small, auditable, and simple to launch. Something like this was my recipe:
#!/bin/sh exec thttpd -D -C /srv/steve.org.uk/thttpd.confUnfortunately thttpd suffers from a few omissions, most notably it doesn't support either "Keep-Alive", or "Compression" (i.e. gzip/deflate), so it would always be slower than I wanted.
On the plus side it was simple to use, supported CGI scripts, and served me well once I'd patched it to support X-Forwarded-For for IPv6 connections.
Recently I setup a server optimization site and was a little disappointed that the site itself scored poorly on Google's page-speed test. So I removed thttpd for that site, and replacing it with nginx. The end result was that the site scored 98/100 on Google's page-speed test. Progress. Unfortunately I couldn't do that globally because nginx doesn't support old-school plain CGI scripts.
So last night I removed both nginx and thttpd, and now every site on my box is hosted using lighttpd.
There weren't too many differences in the setup, though I had to add some rules to add caching for *.css, etc, and some of my code needed updating.
Beyond that today I've setup a dedicated docker host - which allows me to easily spin up containers. Currently I've got graphite monitoring for my random hosts, and a wordpress guest for plugin development/testing.
Now to go back to reading Off to be the wizard .. - not as good as Rick Cook's wizardry series (which got less good as time went on, but started off strongly), but still entertaining.
After Internet Explorer updates to IE11 it introduces a rather annoying bug into Outlook. Typed emails often get cut off mid sentence when you click Send ! So only part of the email gets sent !
What I think is happening is that Outlook is reverting to a previously autosaved copy before sending.
Removing the IE11 update would probably fix it but perhaps the easiest way is to disable the "Autosave unsent email" option in Outlook.
Navigate to:-
Tools, Options, E-Mail Options, Advanced E-Mail Options, and disable the "Autosave unsent" option.
I am sure that you have all seen the exciting news about the first partners to ship Ubuntu smart-phones. For those who haven't seen it:
19th February 2014, London: Canonical today announces it has signed agreements with mobile device manufacturers bq (www.bqreaders.com) (Spain) and Meizu (China) to bring Ubuntu smartphones to consumers globally. Canonical is working with these partners to ship the first Ubuntu devices on the latest hardware in 2014. Ubuntu has also received significant support from the world's biggest carriers, some of which intend to work with OEM partners to bring phones to market this year.
Development programmes have begun with the partners to provide smartphones with a superior user experience on mid to high end hardware for consumers around the world. Devices will be available to buy online through bq, Meizu and at Ubuntu.com.
Today was a hectic day, starting with our Ubuntu town hall hangout and spent in a wealth of meetings. As such I haven't had a chance to write a blog post about this announcement yet, but I wanted to throw something out on my blog before I go to bed.
Naturally this is tremendously exciting news. As I posted about before, 2013 was an intense year as we not only started building our convergent platform, but also the many inter-connecting pieces too such as our SDK, image based updates, Mir, app developer platform, platform services, app insulation, developer portal, and more. As a result of this work, since May 2013 I have been running Ubuntu full-time on my phone and we are in great shape.
In the last year my team has been heavily focused on building a new community; our Ubuntu app developer community. I have directed many resources in my team here for a number of reasons that I believe are of strategic importance to the future health, growth, and opportunity of Ubuntu and our community.
Firstly, we want Ubuntu to instill a level of simplicity, elegance, and power that is not just present in the default platform, dash, scopes, and services, but also emphasized across the apps that users want to use. This means kickstarting a new generation of apps inspired by the design and development principles that are driving our convergence vision and using a simple and powerful app developer platform so devs can go from idea to app store as quickly and easily as possible.
Secondly, I personally believe that apps are key to our success. I suspect that OEMs and carriers will be even more motivated by a platform with great apps and a powerful developer platform, I believe that users will be attracted to a platform with great apps, and I believe that developers will want to build apps for a platform that is both fun to use and develop for.
Thirdly, I believe there is a huge opportunity to refine and innovate in so many areas of our app developer platform and community. Everything from the tooling to knowledge and support to publishing can be optimized and refined to build the very best developer platform.
As such, in my peanut-sized brain the apps are where much of my team's strategy should be focused.
I am delighted by the progress we are making here. As I wrote about a few days ago, there is lots of wonderful work going on and fresh features and improvements landing soon. Our Ubuntu app developer platform is growing in leaps and bounds and I am really proud of the efforts of so many people.
Now, while I am proud of where we are today, I am not going to compromise until we have the best developer platform in the world.
So, how does this all relate to the bq and Meizu news?
Well, this news starts the ball rolling on the first set of devices that are going to be hitting the market. This in-turn will result in a general consumer audience starting to use Ubuntu on smart-phones. While today we have thousands of developers flashing their phones with Ubuntu and eagerly writing apps and using other people's apps, the injection of general consumers will build even more motivation and momentum for our app developers to create apps they are truly proud of and that will be of interest to a new generaton of Ubuntu smart-phone users. As a musician I can tell you that having an audience makes everything that much more worthwhile, and I think it is the same our developers who are about to get a new audience growing around them.
These are tremendously exciting times. Our vision is ambitious but every day the momentum grows and I delighted you are all joining the journey with us. Let's do this, friends!
I was rather excited to receive my box set of Doctor Who: Dark Eyes 2 today. Not just because it's the follow-up to the BBC Audio Drama Award-winning first series. Here's the splendid artwork that accompanies the 4 CD release:
You see the photographs of Nicola Walker from Spooks on the box, album art and even the disk itself? I took those! Thanks to the design wizardry of Damien May they blend seamlessly with the photographs of Paul McGann, Ruth Bradley and Alex Macqueen in costume that they already had. It's tremendously exciting to see one's efforts printed on an actual BBC authorised CD.
Nick Briggs (Executive Producer and voice of the Daleks) asked if I could attend the recording session at the studio to photograph Nicola, Alex, Ruth and other cast members. Not knowing exactly what I would encounter when I got there, I tried to cover all the possibilities. I ended up shooting using off camera flash to get the dramatic lighting suitable for the covers and album art, and natural light for the more straight-forward shots. It was fascinating to see how a complex audio drama is recorded, and yes, the lunches at the Big Finish studios are every bit as good as they are made out to be!
See, that's my actual name! In the same listing as Terry Nation and Ron Grainer. I never thought I would see that happen.
I can see more of my photos of Ruth (below), Alex and Nicola in issue 60 of Big Finish's free magazine, Vortex. Dark Eyes 2 is available now from bigfinish.com. I suppose I better go and listen to it now!
Pin ItIn cycling, a ride's Training Stress Score is a function of that ride's duration, average power and the intensity of the ride relative to the rider's capability. This Slowtwitch article provides a good overview on how intensity and TSS is calculated on a bike.
However, having TSS values for other sports allows a multisport athelete to take into consideration the physiological cost of activities in different sports. This is achieved by ensuring, say, 50 TSS on the bike "counts" the same as a 50 TSS run.
This can be used to simply determine the length, intensity and scheduling of an athletes next workout (to ensure adequate recovery) regardless of the combination of sports, or to identify the athlete's long-term tolerance to—and targets for—training load using metrics such as Chronic Training Load.
To make this possible when using Strava, I wrote a Chrome extension that estimates the TSS score of a run from its Grade Adjusted Pace distribution:
Source code is available. If you found this Strava extension useful, you might like my extensions to quickly switch between metric and imperial units or to change the default comparison filter.
To "pedestal" an aerobar means to elevate the bars above the basebar using risers instead of using headset spacers:
You might do this for a few reasons:
So, assuming you currently have a bike that uses headset spacers, what would be the effect on your position if you were to replace, say, a 10mm headset spacer with a 10mm armrest riser?
First, let us consider the effect of removing the headset spacer. The crucial insight is that removing a 10mm spacer will not lower the stack height—ie. the vertical distance relative to the bottom bracket—by 10mm.
This is because spacers are not oriented perpendicular to the ground; they are stacked along the steerer tube at the head tube angle of the frame. We will assume a head tube angle of 72.5° degrees.
We can calculate that removing a 10mm spacer will reduce the stack height by:
sin(72.5°) × 10mm = 9.54mm... and by the same argument it will also increase the effective reach—ie. the horizontal distance relative to the bottom bracket—by:
cos(72.5°) × 10mm = 3.01mmNext, let us consider the impact of adding the riser. These are oriented perpendicular to the ground, so its addition makes no further change to the reach. However, we can now calculate the overall change in stack height:
Δ stack = -(sin(72.5°) × 10mm) + 10mm = 0.46mmWe can then repeat the calculation for any length of replacement:
Replacement (mm) Δ stack (mm) Δ reach (mm) 10 +0.46 +3.01 20 +0.93 +6.01 30 +1.39 +9.02 40 +1.85 +12.0 50 +2.31 +15.0 60 +2.78 +18.0From this table, I can discover that if I were to replace 30mm of headset spacers with 30mm of risers it would:
Three further considerations must be noted:
(It may seem odd to provide results for up to 60mm of headset spacers when such a large number of spacers would—at the very least—void one's warranty. However, I suspect such setups are transiently common within the confines of a fitting studio.)
I've updated my markdown-pastebin site, to be a little cleaner, and to avoid spidering issues.
Previously every piece of uploaded text received an incrementing integer to describe it - which meant it was trivially easy for others to see how many pieces of text had been uploaded, and to spider all past uploads (unless the user deleted them).
Now each fresh paste receives a random UUID to describe it, and this means spidering is no longer feasible.
I've also posted the source code to Gitub so folk can report bugs, fork, etc:
That source code now includes a Dockerfile which allows you to quickly and easily build your own container running this wonderful service, and launch it without worrying about trashing your server ;)
Anyway other than the user-interface overhaul it is still as functional, or not, as it used to be!

A Winning Strategy? We'll find out soon…
April 27, 2012 | Posted in Company by Lillian Smith
As many of you know, Apartment List was recently nominated for a Webby Award in the Real Estate category.
As a newcomer up against formidable foes, we were compelled to run a unique election campaign: Rather than tipping off the competition about our popularity during the early days of the contest, we saved our best for last. We asked our friends to resist confirming their email and to INSTEAD forward their confirmation emails to us, which enabled us to confirm the votes during the final hours of the contest.
I'd like to thank all Apartment List supporters who cast a vote for us in the Webby Awards. I'd also like to thank our rockstar team of designers, programmers and marketers that built this site into the world-class product it is today. If we ultimately reign victorious and win the People's Choice Webby, we owe this victory to all of you. The Webby Awards will reveal the winners on May 1st – we'll let you know how it turns out.
I hope the below video inspires all underdogs out there. May the most Webbylicious real estate site win!

I placed my order 9/01/12 and i had confirmation etc. and then dispatched confirmation too on 10/01/12. Still haven't received my item! I was surprised as i ordered UGG's on here a couple of months ago with absolutely no problems. The website must have gone down only a couple of days after i placed this order, so i have no contact for the company. I have since seen all these bad reviews and am now left wondering if they really have just cleared off and kept the money from my last order.

Hull City's Oppaa Egyptian style is a big hit back in Cairo - Shafy Mosaad
Posted: March 04, 2013
|Shafy Mosaad is a sports journalist in Cairo ...
"Hull City ... Oppaa Egyptian Style", has become one of the most common slogans in Egypt and the Arab world after the extraordinary emergence of Egyptian duo Ahmed Elmohamady and Mohamed nagy Gedo in the championship.
"Oppaa Egyptian Style" refers of course to the world famous song Gangham Style but the Egyptian version is now the official tribute song here to our Egyptian Tigers.
Egyptian fans have adopted Hull City as one of their own. They see the trio of Gedo, Elmo and Ahmed Fathi , and see their passion through different social media networking. And of course there is the owner Assem Allam.
As the Tigers continue to rise, the talk here becomes even more enthusiastic. Two goals for Gedo means he has scored five in six outings since joining the Tigers on loan from Al Ahly in January. Every goal is followed here in Egypt. And suggestions Al Ahly may be willing to sell Gedo for £3million now look like the deal could be a bargain.
And it seems that Elmo was waiting for some Egyptian friends in his team to spark his best performances and establish himself as one of the best goal makers in the championship.
There's no doubt that Hull City are a team on the rise, and not just because of their league position but the surge in popularity with fans like those in Egypt, a country with 90 million people many who love their football and their home grown football stars.
What may not be known in Hull is the significance of that back home. To many, the Hull City team and its stars are uniting all Egyptian people despite the significant political differences.
In every match that City play now, people in Egypt are desperate to see more goals from Gedo and Elmo and they hope Fathy will soon have a bigger role to play. And as long as they are being passionate about their Tigers, they can forget all their problems for 90 minutes.

The Better Business Bureau (BBB) has issued a nationwide warning about a new scam claiming that President Obama will pay consumers' utility bills through a federal program.
How the Scam Works:
Consumers are being contacted via telephone, fliers, social media and text messages and various other means with claims that President Obama is providing credits or applying payment to utility bills. To receive the money, scammers claim to need the consumer's Social Security Number (SSN), financial institution routing number and account number. In return, the consumers are given a fraudulent financial institution routing number to use in order to pay their utility bills through an automated telephone service. The payment service initially seems to accept the payment but then declines it within a few days of finding the banking information to be invalid. The consumer's bill has not been paid and his/her SSN and personal financial information have been compromised.
Helpful Tips:
The BBB offers the following tips to help consumers avoid becoming victim of this scam:
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has received numerous reports of a fraudulent e-mail that has the appearance of being sent from the FDIC.
The e-mail appears to be sent from "firstname.lastname@example.com" and includes a subject line that states: "FDIC: Your business account."
The e-mail is addressed to "Dear Business Customer" and states "We have important information about your financial institution. Please click here to find details." It then states, "This includes information on the acquiring bank (if applicable), how your accounts and loans are affected, and how vendors can file claims against the receivership."
This e-mail and link are fraudulent. Recipients should consider the intent of this e-mail as an attempt to collect personal or confidential information, or to load malicious software onto end users' computers. Recipients should not click on the link provided.
The FDIC does not issue unsolicited e-mails to consumers or business account holders.

NACHA has received numerous reports that individuals and/or companies are receiving fraudulent emails that have the appearance of being sent from NACHA. Specifically, the email claims be from the "Electronic Payments Association" and appears to be sent from "email@example.com." Click here for email sample
This is a fraudulent email. NACHA does not process nor touch the ACH transactions that flow through the Network. NACHA does not send communications to individuals or organizations about ACH transactions that they originate or receive.
Be aware that phishing emails frequently have attachments and/or links to Web pages that host malicious code and software. Do not open attachments or follow Web links in unsolicited emails from unknown parties or from parties with whom you do not normally communicate, or that appear to be known but are suspicious or otherwise unusual.
Individuals and/or companies are receiving fraudulent emails that have the appearance of being sent from the Federal Reserve. Specifically, the email claims to be from the Federal Reserve Wire Network and appears to be sent from "firstname.lastname@example.com." Click here for email sample
This is a fraudulent email. It was not sent by the Federal Reserve. Do NOT click on any of the links.

Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling
By Joe Donahue
A longtime fixture of radio's Howard Stern Show, comedian Jackie "The Joke Man" Martling was born and raised on Long Island, NY. While touring as a national headliner, Martling released three comedy lp's, 1979's "What Did You Expect?," 1980's "Goin' Ape!," and 1981's "Normal People Are People You Don't Know That Well." He blindly sent the three LP's to Howard Stern upon Howard's arrival at WNBC-AM in New York City in 1982, and Howard called him to make a guest appearance on his radio show. in 1986, Jackie became a full-time cast member and the head writer of Stern's show.
Jackie left the show in 2001 after fifteen-year run as head writer of the radio show
He'll be in our region this weekend.

Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are. Once logged in, come back to this area and there will be a link to banish you. If there are any problems email me at nosflickrhivemind ... at ... fiveprime ... dot ... org.

She's No Faerie Princess (Others)by Christine Warren
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Queen Mab's niece, Fiona, has long been bored to tears by the intrigues of Court life. She'd prefer to cut loose at a punk club, knock back a few Thai beers, and hook up with a likely lad of similar interests. But when Fiona goes AWOL, she only gets as far as Manhattan's Inwood Park before a nasty demon nearly puts a permanent crimp in her plans—and a dark stranger sparks her desire. All work and no play make Tobias Walker one cranky werewolf. After six months of doing his part to keep the peace during the delicate negotiations between the Others and humankind, he'd like nothing more than a good night's sleep—preceded by an enthusiastic mating session. The alluring woman he rescues in the park might be the answer to his most lustful prayers, but only if they can both stay alive long enough to find out who wants her dead and why. Now, Fiona and Tobias must unravel a tangled web of treachery that spans branches of the Fae, Other, and mortal worlds, all the while falling into a dangerous attraction that could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship—or the end for them both. Synopsis:In the second entry in Christine Warren's Others series, when Queen Mab's niece, Fiona, goes missing, she only gets as far as Manhattan's Inwood Park before a nasty demon puts a crimp in her plans—and a dark stranger sparks her desire.

Twitter Inc. revealed fresh financial details in a securities filing, including continued user growth but a wider loss in the third quarter, as costs continued to outpace revenue.
People holding mobile phones are silhouetted against a backdrop projected with the Twitter logo in this illustration picture taken in Warsaw on September 27. Reuters
The San Francisco social network also Tuesday said it plans to list its shares on the New York Stock Exchange, a strong endorsement of the Big Board's effort to be a trading hub for technology companies.
Twitter picks its stock exchange and discloses more company facts as the company gears up for its IPO. WSJ's Telis Demos reports.
The filing advances Twitter toward an initial public offering that could take place in November. The roadshow for the IPO could begin as soon as Oct. 25, according to people close to the discussions, although it isn't clear if it will.
For the third quarter, Twitter said its net loss widened to $64.6 million, from $21.6 million, in the same period a year earlier. The company booked big increases in expenses for research and development, and sales and marketing.
Inside's Twitter's IPO
Quarterly revenue more than doubled, to $168.6 million, from $82.3 million a year ago. That was roughly the same growth rate as in the second quarter.
Helping to drive revenue was advertising on mobile devices, as users increasingly access Twitter on their smartphones. The company said more than 70% of advertising revenue came from mobile devices in the third quarter, compared with more than 65% in the second quarter.
To put Twitter's ad business in perspective: Users clicked on or retweeted 15 times as many ads in the third quarter as in the first quarter of 2012. Meanwhile, the average price of each ad is down over 75%.
Twitter said it averaged 232 million active users per month in the third quarter, 6% more than in the second quarter. The growth rate slowed, from 7% in the second quarter and 10% in the first quarter. By comparison, Facebook Inc. FB -1.51% Facebook Inc.

Twitter executives have sought to avoid some of the pitfalls that befell Facebook, people close to the company have said.
"This is a 180 [degree turn] from Facebook," said Patrick Healy, chief executive of Issuer Advisory Group LLC, which advises companies on stock-exchange issues. "It's Twitter's way of saying, 'don't paint me with the same brush.'"

Airlines around the world in the market for equipment to serve the emerging 100-seat sector have no fewer than five choices to evaluate here at the Paris Air Show this week. Bombardier with its new C Series and Embraer with the 190/195 family enjoy a high profile, but alternative programs conceived farther east won't easily let the Western airframers steal the show.
Paris Air Show » June 14, 2005
Plastic thermoforming specialist Dedienne Plasturgie, a sibling of Dedienne Aerospace, manufacturer of aircraft maintenance, tooling and ground support equipment, is in the business of replacing conventional aircraft metallic parts with plastic versions, integrating several functions. This translates into fewer, lighter parts.
Gamesa, the Spanish aerospace equipment manufacturer, has begun a drastic cost-reduction plan for the current financial year following a two-thirds plunge in profits due mainly to a reduction in orders from Embraer. The company does not expect that new business from the Airbus A380 super-large airliner will compensate for its short-term revenue loss and has warned that if action is not taken, it expects losses next year.
Aircraft cushion specialist Celso says interest is rising for its Soly't lightened cushion. Thanks to its presence in the cabin of the new Airbus A380 airliner, the small French company is gaining market exposure. Here at the Paris Air Show, it is exhibiting its newest product in Hall 2 Stand I5b.
Boeing's delivery in May of a 737-800 airliner certified for the global navigation satellite landing system (GLS) marked the culmination of a 10-year development effort. It also served as a reminder that the ground-based augmentation system (GBAS) still has a future, despite a U.S.
"Stealth does not make you invisible," said the Russian designer sitting across the table at an out-of-the way institute in Moscow. "It makes an aircraft more survivable–but the concept that it is the only path to increasing the survivability of a military aircraft is wrong. We have taken a different approach from the U.S."
French regions Aquitaine and Midi-Pyrénées have formed an organization called the "Aerospace Valley" to bid for government-endorsed "competitiveness area" status in the fields of aerospace and on-board systems. The French government is expected to name 10 to 20 such areas in mid-July, giving participants a certain status that will lead to industry recognition and access to new financial backing.
"We're getting bigger–but we're still manageable," said Tom Cassidy of General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc (GA-ASI). The firm best known for the UAV that rewrote the rules of air warfare–the Predator–now employs more than 1,200 people at nine locations in southern California.
Joint Unmanned Combat Air System (J-UCAS): As well as its "black world" programs such as the Lockheed Martin "son of DarkStar" that was reportedly used in the intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance role over Iraq, the U.S. is developing a UCAV in a publicly visible program to satisfy the needs of the U.S. Air Force and Navy.
Companies in both the U.S. and Europe are forging ahead with technology demonstrations for unmanned combat air vehicles (UCAV), but the military has yet to establish exactly what it wants from its future UCAVS. While this question remains unanswered, the development of production UCAVs will be delayed and budgets withheld.

TEAMS: New York Rangers, New Jersey Devils
Brandon Dubinsky is back in the New York Rangers' lineup after missing 11 playoff games because of an injury to his right foot.
The center returned Wednesday night for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals against the New Jersey Devils. Dubinsky had been sidelined since he was injured in the Rangers' victory over Ottawa in Game 7 of the first round. He sat out all seven games of the second round against Washington and the first four against New Jersey.
Dubinsky took the place of forward John Mitchell, who was scratched for the first time this postseason. New York also welcomed back forward Brandon Prust, who served a one-game suspension Monday night when the Devils beat New York 4-1 to tie the series 2-2.
Stu Bickel shifted back to defense from forward, and defenseman Steve Eminger - who played the previous two games but in only three this entire postseason - was scratched to make room for Prust.

Electronic band Combichrist has released No Redemption, which features 13 tracks that they composed for the recently released DmC: Devil May Cry (review). The soundtrack can be purchased via iTunes here.
Andy LaPlegua states, "As an avid gamer myself I was honoured to be asked to work on this project. I had a lot of fun digging myself into Dante's psyche in order to create music to match the battle scenes and am equally as excited to license existing Combichrist music." READ MORE

I wanted to really play with the cast of Little Dee here, by not only handling a somewhat gruesome ghost story (largely inspired by such early books as Frankenstein and Jeckyl & Hyde), but also by playing with themes such as the literary double and a narrator within a story.

SPX was a grand time. Ahhhh! And now I'm on the late bus back to my brother's. Zoom! Blogging from the bus — so, a con report will have to wait until wednesday's strip.
And I won't be in Seattle for it, but the 17th is the annual "Pigs For Peace" walk at Greenlake, and my sweetie Beth is walking, so please donate, and know a donation for her walking is like for me walking (only I'm only there in spirit). They're an organization who takes care of potbelly pigs (among other animals) who were pets and were poorly treated or not wanted, and so now they have a good home.

In panel two, it is on purpose that Ted isn't even looking at Blake. Blake's guilt is mostly internal.
Not that Ted is pleased to see the alligator.
I have to remind myself sometimes to do pointless things, sometimes I would have Blake do it for me.

Fixed to VoIP Interconnection: Regulation with Asymmetric Termination Costs
Typically, incumbent providers enjoy a demand-side advantage over any entrant. However, market entrants may enjoy a supply-side advantage in costs over the incumbent, since they are more efficient or operate on innovative technologies, such as the voice of internet protocol (VoIP) telephony. Regulation with a supply-side asymmetry has rarely been addressed. Considering both a supply-side and a demand- side asymmetry, the present model analyzes the effects different regulation regimes. Regulation may have adverse effects on subscribers, market shares, and profits. If providers can discriminate between on-net and off-net prices, asymmetric regulation has no local effect on market shares, independent of any demand- and supply-side asymmetry. Otherwise, with reciprocal termination charges, price discrimination leads to qualitatively same effects than nondiscriminatory pricing. --Download Info

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Security Council, 20 February 2007
I am pleased to join you for this debate on a theme that lies at the heart of the Security Council's responsibilities in the maintenance of international peace and security and, in particular, in assisting the re-establishment of sustainable peace after violent conflict. I am grateful to His Excellency Ján Kubiš, Foreign Minister of Slovakia, for bringing us together under this rubric. Security sector reform is a relatively new term for many of us. Yet, it stands for issues that have long preoccupied our Organization: the search for sustainable security, and the recognition that security is also a precondition for setting countries on the path to development. For the United Nations, security sector reform aims to achieve effective, accountable and sustainable security institutions that operate under a framework of the rule of law and respect for human rights. In this way, security sector reform embraces values and principles that lie at the core of the United Nations: commitment to the rule of law; commitment to the protection of human rights; and commitment to the State as the cornerstone of international peace and security. The practical involvement of the United Nations in security sector reform has been shaped by decades of peacekeeping in post-conflict environments. From that experience, four fundamental lessons have come to shape our thinking. First, security is a crucial and immediate condition for peacebuilding after conflict. A basic degree of security is one of the most visible and immediate dividends for communities, providing them with the opportunity to reclaim their lives and dignity. In this way, it is also a condition for initiating efforts towards long-term development. We have learned that the ability of our peacekeepers to provide basic security at an early stage is shaped by how well security issues are addressed in the peacemaking phase. Today, we have a better understanding of how early decisions in peace agreements -- particularly in the context of disarmament, demobilization and reintegration (DDR) -- impact subsequent efforts to establish sustainable security structures and processes. Our aim must be to ensure that peace agreements and DDR programmes contribute to, rather than impede, the restoration of sustainable security. We are making progress on this front. We are developing our mediation capacities to support peacemaking and peace negotiations. And we have elaborated comprehensive, system-wide integrated DDR standards and programmes, which increasingly form an integral component of early peacebuilding efforts. These early frameworks help lay the groundwork for sustainable security reform. A second lesson we have learned is that security cannot be restored and maintained in a vacuum. In supporting efforts to achieve peace, it is vital that we address the needs and perspectives of the State and the communities within it. National ownership is the key to sustainable peace. This is why UN peace operations should rest on the principle that there must be a peace to keep. And it is why the UN's efforts are focused on supporting national authorities in their efforts to establish sustainable security. We have also come to recognize that national ownership in post-conflict environments is not a static entity. Rather, it evolves, as leaders and communities are brought into the peacebuilding process. The wider the scope of local ownership, the more sustainable security will be. This principle guides our efforts in Kosovo, where the UN family is engaged with a wide range of State authorities and local government entities, and where we are conducting a province-wide consultation on security sector reform. The purpose of this consultation is to obtain a comprehensive picture of security needs and perspectives -- of the most pressing security concerns for local communities, and how they believe these concerns can best be met. The same underlying principle has come to shape one of the unique aspects of UN peacekeeping: that among its contributors are a number of countries that have successfully made the transition from conflict to sustainable peace. The participation of these troops and police contributors brings valuable insights and perspectives to UN efforts to support national authorities. The third lesson the UN has learned is that sustainable security goes beyond reintegrating soldiers and units, or training and equipping individual police officers. We have learned, to our cost, in Haiti, Timor-Leste, Sierra Leone and Liberia, that without effective, well-governed security institutions in place, the maintenance of peace is short-lived. Sustainable security involves strengthening institutions and processes. It calls for capable management, sustainable funding, and effective oversight. That is why, in police reform, we no longer focus only on mentoring and monitoring individual police officers. Through initiatives such as the Standing Police Capacity, we also work to support national authorities in building sustainable law enforcement institutions. We work closely with interior and justice ministries, with finance and public administration bodies. And we work with human rights ombudsmen and community groups. Fourth, and finally, we have learned that building sustainable security after conflict goes beyond the scope of any one actor. Even in the UN itself, there are many capacities scattered across the system. We must coordinate these fully as part of an effective response. But the UN is only one actor. To build sustainable security, many others must be engaged: Member States, regional organizations, Bretton Woods institutions and others, each of which brings specific insights and expertise. All these diverse efforts are needed, even if the combination of actors and tasks will differ in each context. And all of them need to be carefully coordinated. In many countries, the UN supports national Governments with such coordination. Because of its universality and legitimacy, the UN has a particular contribution to make. I am heartened that the Security Council has taken note of these lessons. Increasingly, peacekeeping mandates reflect the perspectives of security sector reform. Examples of tasks covering current UN peace operations include: taking forward security sector reform in the Democratic Republic of the Congo; carrying out institutional reforms and the constitution of integrated security forces in Burundi; strengthening Sierra Leone's security sector; and supporting the restructuring of the Defence and Security Forces in Côte d'Ivoire. From now on, our overall task must be to ensure that UN peacekeepers are provided with the guidance and support they need to carry out these tasks effectively and efficiently. We must provide peacekeepers with the standards, guidance and training they need to provide consistent and quality assistance to national authorities. We must ensure mission leaders have the knowledge and staff expertise to direct personnel in carrying out complex support tasks. And we must provide capable and responsive support to field missions in security sector reform, in accordance with Security Council mandates. Finally, we must closely coordinate UN support for security reform in post-conflict environments with ongoing efforts to develop integrated peacebuilding strategies. I look forward to working with all Member States in pursuit of this important goal. Mr. President, again, let me express my appreciation for your initiative in holding this debate, and for the thorough way in which Slovakia has prepared for it. Let me also thank the Permanent Representative of the United Kingdom for convening an Arria formula meeting on this topic last week. Above all, I am grateful to all of you for your commitment to discharging effectively the serious responsibilities facing this Council.

View of the corner of 7th St and Main Avenue in Durango Colorado, looking south with a view of the historic Strater Hotel and Smelter Mountain.
Durango is one of the constituent states of Mexico. Its population of the 2005 census was approximately 1,509,117 people. It has Mexico's second-lowest population density (after Baja California Sur). The city of Durango is the state's capital. Most of the state is heavily mountainous and a good part forested, the Sierra Madre Occidental occupies the western and central part of the state. This mountain range contains a good supply of minerals, including the silver that encouraged Spanish occupation of the territory after it was discovered. These mines extend north into Chihuahua and south into the state of Zacatecas. Vast desert basins in the Laguna District are irrigated by the Nazas River. Major crops grown in the area include cotton, wheat, corn, alfalfa, beans, sorghum and other vegetables. Durango is famous for its scorpions. Mexicans generally refer to the people of Durango as "Alacrán de Durango" ("A scorpion from Durango"). The demonym for the natives of Durango is ... Read more about Durango on Wikipedia
