John D. Rockefeller Quote
Women's Home Companion (1915), quoted in God's Gold (1932) by John T. Flynn
Picture Quote:
"I was early taught to work as well as play,
My life has been one long, happy holiday;
Full of work and full of play —
I dropped the worry on the way —
And God was good to me every day."
―John D. Rockefeller
Verses written on his eighty-sixth birthday (8 July 1925) [1]
Picture Source: Wikimedia CommonsJohn D. Rockefeller
Born: July 8, 1839
Died: May 23, 1937 (aged 97)
Nationality: American
Occupation: Businessman
Bio: John Davison Rockefeller was an American industrialist and philanthropist. He was the founder of the Standard Oil Company, which dominated the oil industry and was the first great U.S. business trust. Rockefeller revolutionized the petroleum industry and defined the structure of modern philanthropy.
Quote of the day
"Genius is, to be sure, not a matter of arbitrariness, but rather of freedom, just as wit, love, and faith, which once shall become arts and disciplines. We should demand genius from everybody, without, however, expecting it."

2014 Football World Cup: in bad taste
I can not wait for the 2014 football World Cup to be over
June 24, 2014 7:16 by kippreport
By Florence Pilkington
During the World Cup, attention turns to one thing: football. Even in a country, such as the UAE, that is not even competing in Brazil, all eyes – very tired eyes, that is – are fixated on the four-week-long tournament.
Last night I headed out for a nice, relaxing dinner with my family. Admittedly, we are right in the middle of the 'greatest sporting event in the world', but even I didn't think football fever had spread into every corner of Dubai, especially to my favourite little restaurant in Jumeirah.
I could barely hear myself think, let alone understand what the waiter was saying to me. As we sat at our usual table, I am not only subjected to loud football commentary, screaming fans and background music – a seemingly new addition for football fans – but endless complaints about the food.
You see, when you're in a restaurant, and all its staff are positioning 52-inch TV screens, rearranging chairs for optimal viewing and then, when the match starts, watching the football, they are not focusing on what they should be. In this case my Chicken Cordon Bleu.
It took 45 minutes to receive my food. And when it did arrive, it was overcooked. The chicken was dry and the vegetables were soggy. This, however, came as no surprise as the chef spent more time watching the football than he did in the kitchen cooking my food.
And if being served below par food wasn't bad enough, the side serving of football talk and paraphernalia was simply too much to stomach.
I can not go anywhere, it seems without seeing signs advertising the World Cup, over hearing conversations about last night's game and being forced to watch replays of the tournament's 'best moments. In fact, I can't remember the last time I had a conversation that didn't involve football.
There are just two week's left, I hear you cry.
And at the end of those two weeks, on July 14, you will find me in my little restaurant in Jumeirah. And, while everyone else is sobbing because his or her team has either won the World Cup or spectacularly crashed out, I will be enjoying a perfectly cooked Chicken Cordon Bleu.

What is the coldest place on Earth?
- Details
- Created on Tuesday, 10 December 2013 10:23
What is the coldest place on Earth? It is a high ridge in Antarctica on the East Antarctic Plateau where temperatures in several hollows can dip below minus 133.6 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 92 degrees Celsius) on a clear winter night. Scientists made the discovery while analyzing the most detailed global surface temperature maps to date, developed with data from remote sensing satellites including the new Landsat 8, a joint project of NASA and the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
Researchers analyzed 32 years' worth of data from several satellite instruments. They found temperatures plummeted to record lows dozens of times in clusters of pockets near a high ridge between Dome Argus and Dome Fuji, two summits on the ice sheet known as the East Antarctic Plateau. The new record of minus 136 F (minus 93.2 C) was set Aug. 10, 2010.
That is several degrees colder than the previous low of minus 128.6 F (minus 89.2 C), set in 1983 at the Russian Vostok Research Station in East Antarctica. The coldest permanently inhabited place on Earth is northeastern Siberia, where temperatures in the towns of Verkhoyansk and Oimekon dropped to a bone-chilling 90 degrees below zero Fahrenheit (minus 67.8 C) in 1892 and 1933, respectively.

What Happened to Comet ISON?
- Details
- Created on Wednesday, 04 December 2013 20:19
Astronomers have long known that some comets like it hot. Several of the greatest comets in history have flown close to the sun, puffing themselves up with solar heat, before they became naked-eye wonders in the night sky.
Some comets like it hot, but Comet ISON was not one of them.
The much-anticipated flyby of the sun by Comet ISON on Boxing Day 2013 is over, and instead of becoming a Great Comet….
"Comet ISON fell apart," reports Karl Battams of NASA's Comet ISON Observing Campaign. "The fading remains are now invisible to the human eye."
At first glance this might seem like a negative result, but Battams says "rather than mourn what we have lost, we should perhaps rejoice in what we have gained—some of the finest data in the history of cometary astronomy."

ZD8UW - Ascension Island
- Details
- Created on Monday, 25 November 2013 13:20
From Cambridge University Wireless Society;
From Monday 2nd – Friday 6th December 2013, G3VFC, G3ZAY, M0BLF, M0VFC and M1BXF will be operating as ZD8UW from Green Mountain, Ascension Island.
We'll be active on 40m-10m, mainly SSB and CW. (Being equatorial, there's little point in taking the extra weight for 80m, I'm afraid.) There may also be some WSPR operation overnight. The best time for the path to the UK is likely to be in the mid-mornings on 17m and 15m, or the mid-afternoons on 12m and 15m. We'll be operating with Elecraft K3s.
We won't have internet access at the QTH, but logs should be uploaded roughly daily to Clublog. The logs will also go on LoTW once we're back, but we can't apply for the LoTW certificate in advance as we won't be collecting the radio licence until we get to Ascension.
QSL will be via M0OXO. This is the same Callsigfn used in previous trips by CUWS but new Qsl Cards to be printed for 2013 Dxpedition.
Once Qsl Cards are printed, the fastest way to receive any Qsl Card I manage is to request them via M0OXO OQRS.

The International Space Station celebrated its 15th birthday yesterday, marking the day in 1998 when a Russian rocket lifted the first piece of what is now the largest manmade structure ever built in space. The station was built by the combined effort of five space agencies and is divided into two: the Russian Orbital Segment and the United States Orbital Segment, which is used by many countries. The station is used as a research laboratory conducting experiments in fields such as biology, physics and meteorology.
The launch of the module named Zarya ("Sunrise" in Russian) kicked off an unprecedented international undertaking to build the astronaut outpost one piece at a time. Five different space agencies representing 15 countries contributed to the project, and by 2000, rotating crews of spaceflyers were — and still are — living on the $100 billion International Space Station.
Today, the space station is about the size of a football field with roughly the same amount of livable space as a six-bedroom house. It ranks second only to the moon among bright objects in the night sky.
The module that started it all, Zarya, also known as the Functional Cargo Block (FGB), is mostly used for storage now. But initially it was intended to serve as a central node of orientation control, communications and electrical power as other parts of the space station were added, according to NASA.

Explosion Rips Open a Canyon of Fire on the Sun

The sun really has been acting up lately. In October, solar activity jumped to its highest level in two years, with a large uptick in the number of sunspots and a concomitant rise in flares and giant eruptions of plasma from the sun's surface.
A filament of plasma 25 times bigger than the Earth exploded from the sun recently, leaving behind this temporary burning gash in the solar corona.
The image above shows the immediate aftermath of one such eruption. Captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite, or SDO, it shows what NASA describes as a "canyon of fire" left behind after a 200,000 mile long filament exploded outward through the sun's atmosphere (Corona).
The red images shown in the movies below help highlight plasma at temperatures of 90,000° F and are good for observing filaments as they form and erupt. The yellow images, showing temperatures at 1,000,000° F, are useful for observing material coursing along the sun's magnetic field lines, seen in the movie as an arcade of loops across the area of the eruption. The browner images at the beginning of the movie show material at temperatures of 1,800,000° F, and it is here where the canyon of fire imagery is most obvious.

TripAdvisor Reviews Hotel De Vlaming Delft
Travel Blogs from Delft
One very old New Church
... the train. The ride back was uneventful. Maybe we've got this train thing sorted out after all. [Jola's edit: He says it was uneventful, which is true if you don't count the first several minutes of his passing up all the various available seats because he didn't want to sit next to anyone other than me and if you discount the guy across from us once we were sitting who insisted on whistling for the entire hour.]
Double Dutch
... wine-and-beer party with two other Canadians from Prince George the night before, but still decided to get myself off to Delft. The beautiful thing with the Utrecht-Delft train route is that it doesn't exist as a direct line, so you have to go via Den Haag, so - not knowing whether what I was doing was actually train ticket fraud or not - I hopped out at The Hague for a poke around to get double the Dutch towns for my money.

The joy and excitement of bring your own children to the ancestral home of your family. It's a very powerful feeling. The anticipation. The delay. The planning. The millions of questions. They were all worth it for just this moment. It's now time to let the adventure ...
Time for the Netherlands
We arrived in Delft today and I'm glad to report that our hotel room is on the first floor. It was market day in the town square and they had booths selling everything from clothing to household goods to food. We then walked to the Royal Delft factory and watched an American couple spend 10,000 Euros (about $13,000) on pottery before getting into their chauffeur driven Mercedes and leaving. No- I didn't spend quite that ...

Hey Intel, Microsoft: Share those profits with your PC pals, eh? - analyst
Re: Dual Boot
Actually unless you are thinking hard about run-time on battery, you don't need to dual-boot. You can run Linux in a VM under Windows and it works just fine. In an ideal world I'd prefer to run Windows in a VM under Linux, but have to admint that getting Linux up and running and supporting the power-management and other integrated features of a notebook can be a a pain (or plain impossible if you didn't research what hardware to buy carefully enough).
Which again makes my point about a mature market. A plain ordinary laptop can happily run a virtual machine! (Or indeed, several VMs at once, if you buy one with an SSD and enough RAM).
Mature market
I doubt that the PC is dead. For a lot of purposes, especially business or serious work, you need a keyboard and a mouse and a decent screen at arm's length.
I think what's changed is that no-one sees a compelling reason to buy a new PC every three or four years. The old one works just fine. Folks really don't want Windows 8. Lots of folks don't even want Windows 7. They'd be happier sticking to XP, except Microsoft are hitting the kill switch. Apple must be rubbing their hands in glee, since a Mac is the obvious alternative to Windows 8 for a home user who is forced off XP. Intel don't care - it's the same chip in a PC or an iMac.
Market maturation happens with every new technolgy sooner or later. The market saturates, the rate of progress slows, "New" goes from "must have" through "boring" to "bloody annoying gimmickry", and sales drop to the level necessary to replace hardware that has physically failed. I'd guess that's a new PC every six to twelve years, rather than a new PC every three to five years.
Tablets are selling like hot-cakes because the market for them is neither mature not saturated. Their time will come (and faster than it did for the PC). Most folks not living in poverty will soon have BOTH a tablet AND a PC, because each has its place.

Finance bods probe RBS over bank-crippling IT cock-up
Loyalty and experience
It's to do with two things - loyalty and experience.
If you pay well for local staff, they'll stay in the job long enough to acquire a large knowledge base specific to your operations, stored where it's most needed -- in their heads. A lot of this stuff can't ever be written down, because the people who know it don't necessarily know what they know until a problem arises that has to be solved asap.
Then someone arrives and cuts costs by sacking the experienced staff and relying on a bunch of outsourced (or even locally contracted) mercenaries who'll leave as soon as someone offers them more money. For that reason, staff turnover is high and the in-head knowledge base is destroyed. (Loyalty, of course, is long gone). The old system ticks over on auto-pilot for a large amount of time, and management pronounce it a success (and make further cuts?). Then the roof falls in.
If it's tangential to the primary purpose of the organisation, outsource it. If it's mission-critical, don't. Is there really anything else needs to be said?
Boffins say flash disk demands new RAID designs
Re: spinning rust and other stuff
Secondly: 2Tb and larger drives have a terrible failure rate. I'd gotten used to seeing drives lasting 6-8 years and now they're down at the 3-4 range again. Manufacturers dropped their warranty to 12 months for sound financial reasons.
So what do you say about my twelve 2Tb disks that haven't experienced a single failure since they were installed three years ago? Not even server-grade ones. Could be luck, but if the MTBF really is three years then half of them should have failed by now, and the odds of NONE having failed are 1 in 2^12.
I think you're generalizing from bad luck. I keep telling people that the big risk is common-mode failure caused by bad batches of disks. If you buy all your disks at once, then if one is of low reliability, the other N are likely the same. If you are running mirrored pairs, then you should buy half your disks from one manufacturer and the other half from a different manufacturer, and pair them heterogeneously. That minimizes the chance of losing the whole array to one bad batch of disks.
I suspect manufacturers cut the warranty because disks were getting so cheap, the warranty replacement process was becoming too expensive compared to the disks themselves, even if the percentage failing in warranty has not changed.
@Ledswinger good point
Very good point. For read-mostly data SSDs should be much more reliable than HDDs, as well as faster.
Wear-levelling works against you?
Couldn't wear-levelling actually work against you in a RAID environment, by causing all drives to fail at nearly the same time?
Not exactly. Without wear-levelling a small subset of blocks would get hammered and the "disk" would fail a lot faster. RAID or no RAID.
However, there's a difference in failure mode between an SSD array where all devices will predictably degrade to unacceptable at about the same time, and an HD array where the future failure of each device is pretty much unpredictable unless you are suffering from common-mode failure (ie a batch of bad disks). In any case HDD failure is linked firstly to hours in service, and then to seek activity. Volume of data written to a HDD does very little that could cause earlier failure.
RAID nearly doubles or trebles the number of write actions. With JBOD, M writes spread over N disks. With RAID-5, 2M writes spread over (N+1) disks. With RAID-6, 3M/(N+2). This will reduce the SSD life expectancy in that environment by ~2x or ~3x.
With SSDs you might want to define a new sort of array that puts differing amounts of parity on different drives, so each SSD in the array experiences a different level of write activity and wears out at a different rate. Of course, there would be a penalty w.r.t. the performance of such an array.

Re: Relax
The question is whether they're sane, mad, or totally rabid.
Mad means they are trying to put a nuke onto a missile and (I hope) failing, while their country rots and starves.
Rabid means that they've hidden the nuke in a container that's been reloaded and relabelled a couple of times in third-world ports with lousy security, and which is shortly going to be delivered to the USA.

How I nearly sold rocket windows to the crazy North Koreans
Re: How to make the world a better (choke, splutter) place
There is a way to make a legal system that covers all possible cases. It's actually pretty much the one that they have in North Korea! "You do what you are told to do by the Great Leader. Anything he approves of is OK. Anything he does not approve of will be punished". I was going to add "If in doubt, ask" but of course that's very dangerous advice because the Great Leader might not be amused, and that's probably illegal.
Anyway, it covers all possible cases. "The Great Leader is right. You are wrong. You will be punished. End of."
It doesn't even need interpretation of a holy book, as in theocracies, or lawyers, as in other places. If there were a way to make sure that the great leader was omniscient and omnibenevolent, it might even work.
Germ warfare
It's even scarier than you think. A few years back I read an account of their germ warfare development program, which was worse even than what Mengele did for the Nazis. They were systematically and scientifically testing various weaponised diseases on "dissidents" and their children.
Do we think that they aren't now muking about with GM? If they started a war that they couldn't win, would they then hesitate to unleash whatever germs they have developed onto the world?

Copyright troll Prenda refuses to explain legal strategy
The law, correctly applied, is the law, and we should follow it. That it has flaws is no excuse for criminal activity
Wrong. I cite the Nurenburg trials. "Simply following orders" (which were lawful at the time) is no defence for someone accused of crimes against humanity or genocide.
More generally, we all have the right to flout the law. It's often called civil disobedience. It is a form of protest about an unjust law or a more general inequity in society. What honorable protestors have to accept is that they do face punishment under the law that they flouted. Either the punishment is sufficiently minor that they don't care, or they calculate (rightly or wrongly) that public outrage will prevent such punishment taking place and instead result in a change to the unjust law.
Re: Rights
There are catches though, you can't selectively apply the 5th to your testimony. If you say anything at all you lose the right to "plead the 5th"
I'm interested in how this works in practice. What if you start giving evidence, and then you are asked something unexpected that you cannot answer truthfully without self-incriminating? Especially if you are not the accused, but rather a witness who is guilty of some unrelated crime?
Flash to the future: Memristors, photonics, MLC-y tsunami
Memristor vs. Flash
If you could choose to store valuable data on a device that used a complicated VLSI chip to encode and store your data on a large-block-addressible medium that you know was likely to start failing after a few thousand write cycles, or one that used simple addressing logic to store it as individual bits or bytes on a medium that lasts for billions of write cycles, which would you choose?
HP will win hands-down, if they can get memristor storage down to much the same price per Gbyte.
If the theory translates into practice, memristors will be the biggest revolution in computer technology since CMOS arrived.

Model S 'leccycar selling better than expected, says Tesla
Re: Leccy? No!!
There are two opposed misconceptions out there:
That electric cars are the solution, end of.
That electric cars are a waste of time, end of.
They are likely to become an important part of a solution to a very big problem: how to keep our civilisation running when we've used most of the oil. Electric cars don't need oil, they don't even require fossil fuels to be burned. Also in future they can be part of an electricity-storage infrastructure (if they are connected whenever they are not being driven, which would require omnipresent car-charging facilities like we currently have omnipresent mains electricity).
Their current (early phase) development is being driven by rich guys having fun, which is exactly the same model as the original automobile. That's a better approach to just about everything new than soviet- or EC-style central planning!

Review: Lenovo ThinkPad Tablet 2

Why, when you can buy a laptop at half the price? (Soon, you'll work out that a mouse is superior to a touchpad, and a touchpad is superior to getting finger-grease all over your screen).
These things give you less hardware, and ought to be cheaper. Which is a give-away as to why everyone selling them loves them. Think of the profit margin!
Egyptian navy captures divers trying to cut undersea internet cables
Re: That could be a lie!
Have you ever tried hacksawing through mere piano wire? Or a padlock hasp?
Re: The mystery of the mysterious operatives
what *would* you need to cut through a major submarine cable?
I've seen a cross-section of such a cable. They are built somewhat like an onion. Protective plastic sheath, layer of poisonous gunk to kill marine worms that eat throuth the sheath, layer of piano wires for strength. Repeat several times. Finally a very skinny core containing the optical fibres. Can't recall anything copper. Stainless steel would be a better bet for resisting seawater.
You could probably hack through such a cable with big manually operated wrecking shears (big lever, gears, ratchet type of thing - distant relative of a bolt cutter). A saw or knife would be foiled by the first layer of piano wires. Above water an angle grinder would probably also work.
BTW those marine worms are persistent little bastards. After the first attackers have died, the water will wash away the poison and corrode through the wire. And then they'll be back for another go. Iterate to eventual destruction, if a turbidity flow doesn't kill the cable first.
Re: The mystery of the mysterious operatives
The other possibility is that they were innocently scuba diving and happened to be in the wrong place.
Possibly. OTOH if they were apprehended diving with cable shears or similar, probably not. Hopefully someone in the Egyptian security forces will check this before interrogating them. Also that they'll bear in mind that one wouldn't get far attacking an armoured submarine cable with a standard diver's emergency knife, so if that's the only blade in the picture they may well be innocent.

How to survive a UEFI BOOT-OF-DEATH on Samsung laptops
Re: "Garrett was able to demonstrate an application on Windows could wreck a machine."
Not designed to run Linux you say? If this is the metric people measure that criteria by, then it's clearly not designed to run Windows either.
And right now, somewhere in North Korea ....
The really important question
What do Samsung do when someone returns a bricked laptop (a) in and (b) out of warranty?
You can tell the manufaturers you want to do business with from the ones you don't, by how they handle a problem such as this one. You don't want to be told to <go away>, and to have to sue your supplier for supplying goods that were not fit for purpose. Which defition this bug amply fulfills: the machine claimed to offer UEFUI boot, but broke the specification in a way that causes catastrophic failure.

Nvidia, Continuum team up to sling Python at GPU coprocessors
Faulty diagram
That diagram must be faulty. FORTRAN isn't there at all.
Yes, it's a minority language these days. However, for those who do serious scientific number-crunching, it's definitely very far from being a Norwegian Blue. FORTRAN-95 and successors allow a compiler to generate efficient parallel code (which C / C++ can't, because of pointers).
Python has a big foot in that camp as well. It's great for writing top-level code, with SciPy and NumPy and lesser-known friends at lower levels to do the heavy lifting.
Re: hate python with a passion
I hated it (though with less passion) when I started learning Python. It took me about an hour to get used to it. It took me about a day to start wondering who was the idiot who thought curly brackets were a cool idea.
NASA chief: Earth is DOOMED if we spot a big asteroid at short notice
Re: Yes the Rothschild Bank and the US Federal Reserve....
A nuke would work, if it was placed correctly before detonation. To the side and well off-centre. You'd blast a small chunk of asteroid off at high velocity in one direction and impart an equivalent and opposite amount of momentum in the opposite direction. It would work if the delta-V was sufficient to cause the asteroid to miss earth (so the more warning we had, the better). Lots of variables, of course, and causing fragmentation of the asteroid would make things worse (if they could be any worse, that is).
Radioactivity - pah. Compared to the environmental effects of an extinction-level impact event, the radioactivity released by a single nuke would be totally insignificant. We tested hundreds of them in the atmosphere, didn't we?
Drilling into 3D printing: Gimmick, revolution or spooks' nightmare?
Great for one-offs
I think this hits the nail on the head.
It may revolutionize prototyping. Design a complicated 3-D object on your computer, and print one. Handle it. Stress it. See what feels good or bad, what breaks or bends too easily. Revise your design. Print another prototype. No problem with going around this loop several times.
For manufacturing, you'll still bite off the large expense of having a mould manufactured, so you can knock out the item in thousands or millions for cents per unit.
It'll also mean that at the other end of the cycle, one-off spare parts for obsolete models will be similarly easy to manufacture. What is the state of the art in 3-D scanning? Take a broken part, reassemble it with superglue, 3D scan it and 3D print a replacement? Maybe not there today, but soon. Photo-copying for objects.
It may revolutionize lost-wax casting, because it'll be easier to make the wax originals. What makes sense for jewellers today (with hand-sculpted wax), may make sense for any smallish cast-metal object tomorow.
Perhaps surprisingly, no.
There's a lot of law pertaining to exhaust pipes in particular. It was established that car manufacturers had no rights over the manufacture of functionally equivalent parts which, externally, were indistinguishable from copies of a registered design, because they HAD to be exactly the same shape, diameter, etc. in order to attach to the car and not impede the operation of its engine. The internals were a different matter - there is freedom inside to make changes, and the third-party manufacturers were indeed making the innards differently to the car manufacturer.
Further, if you are making your own parts rather than manufacturing them for profit, you have even greater license. For example, you are allowed to make an instance of a mechanism described in a patent for your own curiosity, enjoyment, maintenance of a broken purchased item, etc. even though you need a license to sell such parts for profit.
As with audio and video, watch out for attempts to take away the freedoms we currently enjoy!
Software bug halts Curiosity: Nuke lab bot in safe mode

I know what you mean, but I immediately thought of "Queen of Angels" by Greg Bear. The plot of that SF novel points out the difficulty of emulating any system whose software has to handle unpredictable realtime events.
Especially if it's one step away from full-human AI and 10s of light-years out.

Ten pi-fect projects for your new Raspberry Pi
Re: Solar moitor
I must have missed something. If you want to heat water from solar PV electricity, don't you just put a 12V or 24V immersion heater in your tank and connect the raw DC solar panel output to the heater?
I would have thought that the rest involves a motorized switch to connect the panels to the inverter or to the water tank as desired. If inverters are allergic to being completely disconnected from their PV panels at short notice, you could switch between all the PV output going to the inverter, and the PV output going to the inverter and the water-heater in parallel.
And if you also want to be able to heat water from mains electricity, just put a second immersion heater in the tank. OK, it may be hard to source a tank with two bastard curcular cut-outs at the top for screwing your immersion heaters into. I find that struggling with one is quite enough!
Back to the original idea, surely there's such enormous thermal inertia in a water tank that you wouldn't have to switch the heater on and off more than once every few minutes. Flicker regulations?
Re: Rural networking
Knock on the door of whoever is paying for the broadband, of course. I'd suggest that would be the "Borchester Village Internet Co-op" or suchlike. Obviously take appropriate software precautions so that only authorized users get access (such as end-to-end as an encrypted pipe, and some logging of who and when).
Not really any different to any other smallish not-for-profit's set-up, apart from the wireless pipe to the broadband connection location.
Regime change, anyone?
Same idea as rural networking, but a different application, for brave people living under repressive regimes. Build your own hidden communications network.
This more or less happened in Libya, although the rebels "stole" the existing wireless network infrastructure rather than just installing their own.
Re: Rural networking
It's not a new idea at all. Years ago I read about the installation of a working telephone booth at the Burning Man festival, using a chain of off-the-shelf routers strung across the Nevada desert. It's just that it's getting more affordable, and the RPi lets you integrate things like battery and power management to a greater degree. There are also quite a few routers that one can "jail-break" and convert into small fully programmable Linux boxes. (OpenWRT, etc.)
A related idea would be just to use a pair of solar-powered RPIs (or OpenWRT boxes) to wirelessly bridge a road. This is useful, because while you might persuade a few landowners to let you string a fibre across their land, just try getting permission to take a fibre over or even under a public highway. So, don't try. Just put a solar-powered fibre-to-wireless router on each side. You wouldn't even need directional antennae (which may not be entirely legal).
Re: My project...
Victorian terrace should be easy! It has floorboards? You can push your low-voltage low-bandwidth wiring into the cracks between the boards in ine direction, and pull wires through the space between the joists under the floorboards in the other. Modern flat with a solid concrete floor is harder, though if you have carpet you can also easily put wiring under the carpet.
Very thin copper wire or tape attached to a wall, wallpaper-glued down with tissue paper and painted over would probably also work. I once attached a multi-element FM antenna to a ceiling that way (antenna made of aluminium foil, then papered over and painted). Worked a lot better than a dangly wire, and a lot cheaper than getting a man to attach a proper antenna to the chimney. The room needed painting anyway.
Or with RPi at £30 ... go wireless?
Rural networking
Fairly challenging, but a case of open-source development once, fix hundreds of thousands of people's problem.
It ought to be possible to connect an Rpi, a solar panel, a battery, a weatherproof box, a USB hub, some USB wireless thingies and some directional antennae, to make a goes-anywhere wireless access point. Stick that on a pole in a field somewhere, with line of sight to another pole, and another, and another ... chain them together from a location that can get broadband, to a village or hamlet that can't.
Software that auto-assembles a network, so apart from configuring the broadband end the future problem abounts to errecting poles, screwing a box onto the top, and pointing the antennae in appropriate directions.
It's a cheap somewhat limited implementation of something that the military are playing with for battlefield communications, and disaster relief agencies for getting communications up again after a natural disaster.
New nuke could POWER WORLD UNTIL 2083
Re: Thorium Breeder reactor
in particular, the Thorium cycle: breed U233 from Th232, and then fission the U233. Takes a lot more neutrons to get all the way up from U233 to Plutonium, so production of Plutonium will be minimal.
U235 production might be more of a worry, but it involves isotope separation to extract it rather than chemistry. Hard to build a Uranium isotope separation plant without being noticed.
AdBlock Plus BLOCKED from Google Play
Re: More adverts, everywhere.
So, don't patronise us and tell us to grow up for lamenting the removal of the option to exercise choice.
But your freedom to choose to block adverts has not been removed. It's just that the Google store has stopped stocking that app, so you have to get it from somewhere else and learn an extra trick or two to install it. To me, it's a bit like your default supermarket deciding not to stock one of your favourite products. Annoying.
If they'd made it impossible to block adverts without voiding your phone's warranty, THAT would be interfering with your freedom of choice. If they'd used cryptographic techniques so it was impossible to install anything they didn't want you to, and so they could retroactively take away something that they didn't want you to have , that would qualify as evil. Nobody could be that nasty, could they?... Oh.

Re: No such thing as degrees Kelvin.
Which has just made me think, why haven't I ever seen use of kK or MK? (temperatures appropriate for describing stars).

Re: Anything we can do
Even if they happen to be within a few tens of light-years, even if they are currently watching Lucille Ball on Earth-TV and trying to work out what those strange techno-primitives are up to, they may still be thwarted by real-world physics. In other words, they've come to the same conclusion that our scientists have, that interstellar travel isn't ever going to happen outside of the movies. No wormholes, warp drives, ZPE drives, reactionless drives, or any of the other devices that SF authors use to get an interstellar plot going. Just rocketry and relativity and radiobiology, saying "can't be done".
My riposte to the (strong) Anthropic principle is that the universe is NOT optimised for Homo Sapiens. It's optimised for our silicon successors, who'll be able to slow their clock rates down so that a thousand light-years becomes a few years subjective. They'll prefer just about anywhere in the universe to those hot balls with moist oxidizing atmospheres, where some (mostly ridiculed) few amongst them think their ancestors must have developed, back before the Archives and the Memories.
In the worst-case scenario, they're here in our Oort clouds already, we're making far too much noise, and they're getting ready to drop a comet on us. (It worked last time, 65 Myears ago).

March Madness is not only taking place on the basketball court this week. Many urologists are overrun by patients this time of year.
Doctors say a lot of guys have their vasectomies done this week and then lay around all weekend watching basketball- doctor's orders.
"Typically they should take it easy on a couch. They will have an ice bag, for about 6 hours on and off, and just not doing anything strenuous for a short period of time," Dr. Edmund Sabanegh said.
During a vasectomy, tubing that carries sperm is interrupted. 'No-incision' techniques help to make the procedure quicker and more comfortable, but there is still some icing involved afterwards. Guys are typically told to stay in a reclined position while they're icing.
And it just so happens, that's a good way to watch basketball, too.
Doctors say the number of vasectomies increase around other big sporting events as well.
"We see a lot of men who have held off scheduling this until a time of year when they know that they can have some down time when they can watch TV or do something else of interest and we tend to see surges around March Madness for the tournament and we tend to see surges around the Super Bowl," Sabanegh said.
The procedure is very effective, only takes about 15 minutes, and afterward the recovery is about 24 hours.

The official name of this gene is "TSEN54 tRNA splicing endonuclease subunit."
TSEN54 is the gene's official symbol. The TSEN54 gene is also known by other names, listed below.
The TSEN54 gene provides instructions for making one part (subunit) of an enzyme called the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex. This complex helps process several types of RNA molecules, which are chemical cousins of DNA.
The tRNA splicing endonuclease complex is particularly important for the normal processing of a form of RNA known as transfer RNA (tRNA). tRNA molecules help assemble protein building blocks known as amino acids into full-length proteins. However, before they can assemble proteins, tRNAs must be processed into mature molecules. In particular, some tRNA molecules contain regions called introns that need to be removed for the tRNAs to be functional. The tRNA splicing endonuclease complex recognizes and then removes introns to help produce mature tRNA molecules.
Studies suggest that the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex may also be involved in processing another form of RNA known as messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA serves as a genetic blueprint for making proteins. Researchers suspect that the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex cuts (cleaves) one end of mRNA molecules so a string of adenines (one of the building blocks of RNA) can be added. This process is known as polyadenylation, and the string of adenines is known as a poly(A) tail. The poly(A) tail signals the stopping point for protein production and protects mRNA from being broken down before protein production occurs.
Several mutations in the TSEN54 gene have been found to cause pontocerebellar hypoplasia. These mutations can cause either pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2 (PCH2) or type 4 (PCH4). The most common mutation replaces the amino acid alanine with the amino acid serine at position 307 in the TSEN54 protein (written as Ala307Ser or A307S). Most people with PCH2 have this mutation in both copies of the TSEN54 gene in each cell. Individuals with PCH4 usually have the common Ala307Ser mutation in one copy of the TSEN54 gene in each cell and a more severe mutation in the other copy of the gene.
It is unclear how mutations in the TSEN54 gene alter the function of the tRNA splicing endonuclease complex and disrupt normal brain development. Researchers believe that mutations in this gene are probably responsible for most cases of PCH2 and PCH4.
Cytogenetic Location: 17q25.1
Molecular Location on chromosome 17: base pairs 75,515,706 to 75,524,739
The TSEN54 gene is located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 17 at position 25.1.
More precisely, the TSEN54 gene is located from base pair 75,515,706 to base pair 75,524,739 on chromosome 17.
See How do geneticists indicate the location of a gene? (http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/handbook/howgeneswork/genelocation) in the Handbook.

"My group of 6 adults rented this place for a week and thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a nice welcome letter from the Realtor upon our arrival, and she even called to extend a personal welcome. Letting every person have their own bed was the main reason why we selected this place. Plenty of space for all of our ski luggage and clothing. Definitely recommended."Guest: Mike M.

"Couldn't have asked for a better location in Park City, Utah then at Three Kings Condominiums. Our Unit was absolutely perfect. The owner of the unit contacted me personally several times during our stay to make sure we had everything we needed. The kitchen and bathrooms (3) were very well stocked with supplies we would have needed upon arrival. This condo is exactly as you see it except better. I am very particular about any condo I rent and this one was unbelievable. It not only smelled clean but was clean. For family members who prefer not to ski or snowboard, this is the place for you. We took advantage of Hot-Air ballooning, snowmobiling, Olympic touring and awesome shopping on Main street. Be sure to go to "h's" on Main Street and check out their very unique jewelry. Had to leave with a couple of pieces, bet you will to. Can't wait to go back with our family of about 30. These memories will forever be treasured."Guest: Kay H.

"Just got back from an 11 day stay at this condo. It fit the bill perfectly. Lisa was easy to work with and the condo was as good as it looked in the pictures and reviews. Fully stocked kitchen, high end appliances, with quality dished and pots/pans. Great location and very comfortable beds. Really close to Eagle lift at PC (walking distance, but we drove and dropped off each day). On the bus route if you don't have a car. Complex hot tub right next door and underground parking was nice. We had 5 in the condo. 2 Adults and three teenagers. Everybody had plenty of room. Also very close to Silver Star Cafe, which is a hidden restaurant gem in PC. I would stay here again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a great condo near PC Mountain."Guest: Jim Quinn Date of Stay: March 2014 Review Submitted: April 3, 2014View listing
"Our family of 4 including 2 teenagers stayed at the condo this past March. We loved it! It was cozy with a warm fireplace in the main room but our 2 daughters loved spreading out in the spacious loft. My husband and I had a nice, private en suite bedroom on the main level. The kitchen was better appointed than need be and Chris from PC Experience had left coffee, a tea selection, hot chocolate and chocolates upon our arrival. Chris also very graciously got us in the condo 4 hours earlier than our check in so we were able to get an afternoon of skiing in, awesome!!! PC Experience was very responsive to all our needs. You can walk to a lot of shopping, get the town bus right outside, and most importantly walk to the Eagle and First Time lifts. This was our 3rd time in PC (we love it best for skiing all 3 nearby resorts). This was our first time staying at this condo, we won't stay anywhere but here in future years."Guest: kate g.

All the email needs to do is pull the body/content of the message out and parse it (going to be putting certain parts into a database). What do I need to do to fix the piping to prevent the error, and how do I access the email body once I have (I understand how to use stdin, and did some reading on email parsing, but none of it worked, though I'm not sure if that's because the pipe was broken, or something else).
Thank you for your time.

Authentidate (NASDAQ:ADAT) continues to be a core holding of ours. For those new to the story, the company has a suite of software solutions that help healthcare organizations manage patient care. The company's technology both improves patient outcomes and slashes the cost of care, so we view it as a win for all parties involved.
Yesterday, the company reported its financial results for the quarter ending Sept. 30, 2013. Revenues were up 96% to a record high, margins improved, and the operating loss declined. On the company's last earnings call in September, Authentidate's CFO Bill Marshall stated in response to a question about future results, "The stock answer is we don't give guidance, but as Ben said, the numbers will be better, much better." These guys delivered yesterday. Management was very upbeat on the call and expressed an optimistic outlook.
We thank all our readers who told us how much they appreciated the conference call summary we published on Authentidate's prior quarter. We are pleased to share some highlights once again.
On the outlook:
This was a strong quarter for Authentidate, one that provides a glimpse into the company we expect to become.
We reported record revenue growth for the quarter from current operations and we improved our margins and lowered our operating loss and net loss for the period. . . . We expect to see continued improvement in these areas as we grow revenues and transition to a cash flow positive business.
On the VA's budget:
The VA's requested appropriation for telehealth for the 2014 fiscal year is $460 million, a 4.3% increase, or $19 million, compared to 2013. This demonstrates the VA's ongoing commitment to telehealth.
On reaching breakeven:
We're still on track to attain our goals for cash flow breakeven in our third fiscal quarter and to reach profitability by the end of our fiscal year, during the fourth quarter. So we haven't changed those goals.
On commercial healthcare opportunities:
The queue of RFPs has increased significantly and it has a lot to do with the new healthcare act. ... So we have been participating in a lot of RFPs.
As you would expect with complex systems it takes a long time for people to make decisions. Having said that, we expect there will be decisions made in the next two to three months...
Most of the major health plans out there have RFPs out for things like telehealth and other kinds of automated systems that we offer. So what we're seeing is ... increasing significantly and exactly how do I look into the crystal ball and say what percentage I'm going to win, I would say I don't have the ability to do that. But I feel reasonably certain that I'm going to win enough to ... more than use up the capabilities that we have in terms of resources.
On Authentidate's program for HIV patients:
The pilot is proceeding well and we expect this to lead to opportunities in the public sector. We expect that the HIV telehealth program will be made available for VA HIV patients nationwide after the pilot is completed. ... The HIV program uses our Interactive Voice Response telehealth solution, which we provide for a recurring monthly subscription fee for patients.
On their relationship with the VA:
The efforts of the last year to deploy our telehealth offering with the VA are finally paying dividends. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014 we delivered record revenues on our highest growth rates ever...
Our efforts to increase our business with the VA are going extremely well. And we believe the VA's telehealth project positions us well to pursue projects with other state and federal agencies as well as in the commercial sector.
On the growth opportunity with the VA:
The VA has a program in place ... to add about 600,000 [telehealth] patients ... [over] a little more than three years.
Q: So we should start to see rapid acceleration if those trends hold?
A: That's my expectation.
On the competitive landscape:
We clearly see that our product is way advanced and in fact serves patients much better than the competitor's products. So that's where we have really put our trust and our belief that we will succeed in the VA.
