Buyer's remorse in the skin trade.
Imagine! You've just spent sixty thousand bucks (the going price I am told) on a proper blond-and-blue-eyed kid. Now, you feel like a goat that has adopted a buck! He doesn't speak proper English and to boot, is a pain in the arse! Now you feel like a horse's ass. Or a dumbass. You have, what is called buyer's remorse.
Cheer up! Buy the kid a one-way busticket "home" and be rid of the little pest!
We learn this AM that Russia has suspended adoptions by Americans in the wake of the seven-year-old that had been sent back to Russia by his "adoptive" "mother".
The real kid just doesn't measure up to the imaginary playmate the "mother" had bought.
This package rejected. Return to sender. Not as ordered.
What's behind this?

Are all of the servers on a UPS?
What version of RAID are you using?
Morning all,
Wasn't sure where to put this, so hopefully it's in the right place.
We've had an ongoing issue with our Server room. 4 years ago we put in a viglen system (before my time) and for the first year or so everything ran fine. After this initial "honeymoon period" a couple of the servers started to cause faulty harddrives. In total over th enext couple of years we went through 25-30 server hard drives in one server alone.
12 months ago, we replaced Viglen with a vanilla windows environment and for 12 months everything has been running fine. However, as with Viglen, after this honeymoon period ended, we have had 1 server start to experience faulty harddrives and we've just had Hitatchi replace both of our SANS as they too have developed faulty drives.
This, to me at least, is too much of a coincidence and has to be being caused by something else other than faulty hard ware.
Does anyone know of a company who would come out and do a "Server Room Evaluation" or something along those lines? Essentially we are looking for someone to come out to us and see if there is something we've missed which might be causing HDD's to fail on a regular basis (low level static maybe? I dont know).
The room already has its own air conditioning, and it's own power source but we still have the same problems time and time again.
Any advice anyone can provide would be gratefully received.
Are all of the servers on a UPS?
What version of RAID are you using?
All servers are on a UPS.....
Versions of Raid we're using are Raid 0 and Raid 5.
There's been no error with the RAID though, it's the drives themselves that have developed the fault.
How do you know they are faulty, what symptoms or errors are there? What is the humidity level like?
We haven't checked humidity levels as yet, this is something I'm going to look at thought shortly.
With regards how we know they are faulty, same way most would I guess. Servers start to beep, showing a faulty drive. Sans display warning light, when you go into the console it tells us that the drive has developed a fault. Of the two new SANs that Hittchi have sent us, one has developed an issue after just 2 weeks!
As an addition to this, our FROG box has also chucked out a few hard drives over the 2 years we've had it in.
I used to get similar problems, admittedly it normally happened when a member of staff turn the aircon off in the server "cupboard", but the heat issues relating to the HD failures only affected the hitachi and seagate drives, that said the seagate drives i found the be the least reliable.
I have now changed all the server drives to Western Digital Caviar Black drives and havent had any fall over since, That was well over a year ago, with no errors, no raid issues, no strange noises, nothing...
Assuming you can rule out power (do you have sufficient UPS's) and heat (do you have decent air con) isues you may be looking at something far more strange such as humidity (this should be solved by air con) or even worse some kind of magetic interference??
Also, what make and model of hard drives do you use???
The sheer qty of hard drive faliures is definatly cause for concern. I can count the number of server HDD faliures we've had here over the last 8 years on one hand *touches wood*, and I have normal hands by the way not freakish hands.
Try SSD drives?
Not had one fail yet.
With regard to brands It depends on the batch I guess, we have had so many WD drives die but the Seagates have kept on going for years.
As to the server room I would check the humidity, the temperature stability - if it fluctuates a large amount regularly it will kill the drives quicker. I'd also look at the vibration from the surroundings and from eqipment transfered through the mounting. Lots of mechanical vibration will also end in toasted drives.
We do have the room air conditioned, and as far as I can tell, it is on 24 hours a day keeping the temperature at a constant temperature of 20 degrees C (that's what it is currently).
I am certainly going to check humidity in there, but I'm not really sure how I can check for magnetic interference (which at the moment is where our thoughts are as to what is causing the problem).
With regards makes of hard drives, I don't actually know. All our servers are under warranty with their respective manufacturers. Hitatchi SANs I would guess use Hitatchi drives. Our Backup server has been using Seagate Barracuda drives by the looks of it. The frog box, I've no idea, as FROG know when the drive goes before we do and they just turn up and replace it.
The air con should automatically dehumidify the air so unless you've got something seriously wrong with the building fabric, humidity shouldn't be an issue for you.
As for magetic interference - I have no idea how you would check for that, I would assume it would be a specialised job, and therefore very expensive to find out.
Hmm the less I say about Hitatchi the better. Hitatchi = IBM. When I was a wee boy we used to refer to IBM Deskstar hard drives as IBM Deathstars because it seemed as if every one ever made failed within a year. I had 2 in RAID 0 at that time. Big mistake. Spent more time reinstalling windows than actually doing anything productive :/
I would have thought you would need something fairly big and fairly nearby to cause problems with magnetic interference. Is there any large transformers/substations nearby? Or any other large industrial-type stuff? Lift machinery, large electric motors? TV/Radio transmitters? The disk itself will be inside a metal box, inside anther metal box, so it would take a lot for interference to get through. If it were to affect the electronics on the drive, I would have thought you would be getting other failures/random crashes as well. Does anything else go wrong in that room?
Seeing how there are problems with several servers, it would point to something in the room rather than specific hardware.
How well does the air circulate around the room? Are there any heat hot-spots near the servers/HDs? Does the air flow in the room work with or against the servers own cooling mechanism?
Some other thoughts:
* Does anyone else have access to the room (cleaners/caretakers etc)?
* How are the servers situated within the room (in a rack, on the floor, on tables?)
* Is there any problem with dust building up in the room/inside the servers?
* Is the room carpeted? What is the floor made out of?
* What is the power supply like in that room? Do you get any spikes/brownouts?
* Have you tried wiping the drives and reusing them? Or is it a permanent failure? Can you access the data on another computer/server?
* How many UPS's and servers do you have? what capacity are the UPSs?
* Does the room have any problems with damp? Does it feel excessively dry or humid?
* Do the failures happen at regular intervals or after any other events?
Can you describe the room a bit more, maybe show some pictures? Perhaps the area around the room as well.
Thanks again to everyone who's responded. We've spoken to a couple of companies now who offer a service whereby they'll come out and do some analysis of our server room. Unfortunately the school is baulking at the price (you genuinely can't win, they don't want down time, they don't want to spend any money to work out what's wrong!).
Just to follow on from Chris_Cook's response, pleasae see attached some images of our server room.
With regards the questions asked in Chris' response....
- Nobody else has access to the server room. We have a locked door, with a metal roller shutter over the front which is also locked at night. As far as we know, we are the only people with keys.
- Servers (as can be seen in the photos) are rack mounted. However before the rack was in, the servers were on a desk and we had exactly the same problems.
- Don't think there is a problem with dust. When we removed one of the faulty sans I checked the back of it and there was no dust build up at all. The room itself is fine, it's pretty clean as server rooms go.
- The room isn't carpeted, the floor is a vinyl type covering.
- The room has it's own dedicated power supply running into it, when we were a viglen school this is something they said might be causing the problem so we had the dedicated power source put in. As far as I know we don't suffer from spikes/brownouts, but we need to do some research on this.
- We have tried wiping the drives and reusing them, they always show as faulty and won't work. It is a permanent failure and we havebeen unable to access the data on another computer/server.
- All our servers run through the UPS that we have. We had a full network rebuild last year and the company who did the majority of the work was responsible for the UPS and therefore it should be ore than sufficient for our needs.
- No problems with damp in the room (although it does have a plastic sewage pipe running through the corner which burst over the summer!).
- The failures aren't very unpredictable, there's no events that occur that could trigger it (that we know of).
Thanks again
Those servers look remarkably like my old servers, one which is retired now and one still going as a print server (intel chassis ?). We had disk problems for a while indicating faulty disks turned out to be a circuit board behind the HD housing forgot what it is called but its some sort of drive/error reporting circuit board. Could be that but that would not explain why it was happening on the previous server, unless they both had the same fault. Did you test all those faulty disks on another machine ?
25-30 server hard drives, thats alot of drives to go through!

Budapest: MEPs open gay EuroGames 2012
Post your comment
Comments on this article are now closed.
Reader comments
I'd be elated about this if only it weren't going all so horribly wrong in Eastern Europe. It's as if the old men in dresses (i.e. god's folk) are punishing LGBT people there because they've lost over here.
Maybe it's time we did actually march on the Vatican and occupy the place :-D
Count me in! I am just going to check out Ryanair.Com for flights to Rome. We've heard of One Million Mums, lets have One Million Gays. All roads lead to Rome!
I personally hope that the Games could mark a turning point in Hungarian attitudes towards gays. Fidez (The Hungarian Conservatives) were out of order to rip up the old Constitution and replace it with one that suited them. A constitution is designed to protect the population of a country from the worst excesses of an elected government. The US Constitution has only been amended 27 times although 10,000 proposals to amend it has been lodged. Unlike the US Constitution the Hungarian Constitution is not worth the paper it is written on if it can be ripped up and replaced with every change of government.
Hungary seems to be following a familiar pattern with LGBT issues: Two steps forward and one step back. Section 28 was our backwards step. I hope that the Budapest Games pass off without incident and that Hungarians will learn a lesson in tolerance and one day they will be ready to follow London in hosting the Greatest Show on Earth.

Analysis of Detecting Wormhole Attack in Wireless Networks
Free registration required
Executive Summary
In multi hop wireless systems, such as ad hoc and sensor networks, mobile ad hoc network applications are deployed, security emerges as a central requirement. A particularly devastating attack is known as the wormhole attack, where two or more malicious colluding nodes create a higher level virtual tunnel in the network, which is employed to transport packets between the tunnel end points. These tunnels emulate shorter links in the network. In which adversary records transmitted packets at one location in the network, tunnels them to another location, and retransmits them into the network. The wormhole attack is possible even if the attacker has not compromised any hosts and even if all communication provides authenticity and confidentiality.

18th Nov: We've switched servers and will be updating the old code over the next couple months, meaning that several things might break. Please report issues here.
main index
fhqwhgads: So the Charr have been officially stated to have the most advanced mundane technology of any of the races. How in the world did this happen? What about Charr society could possibly have allowed them to surpass everyone else? For example, Charr society is a hierarchical military organization with four competing factions, likely inspired by the Mongol Empire post-Genghis Khan. The first of them to divert resources away from arms and troops towards research would be pounced upon by the others. Furthermore, research is fundamentally unreliable, and any useful invention requires years and years and years of study into the fundamental principles behind it before anyone can even imagine its applications nevertheless make something useful. All those prerequisites would be a huge drain to any Charr faction wanting to invest in research before they would be able to see any actual returns. Even if the Charr managed to discover those principles, there's no guarantee that they'd get anything useful out of them either, and even if they built, say...a model T car, their military society and lack of a free market economy ensures that it would never catch on since it's slower, weaker, and more expensive than an ordinary horse, even if it might eventually be refined into a tank. The only reason it caught on in the real world was because it was a novelty and a display of wealth, things that wouldn't exist in a military society. In order to make the advances in technology they did, the Charr would've had to have diverted large amounts of potential forces into research that's sure to never give returns for 20 years, and might not produce anything at all. The nature of research is also problematic to the Charr. Since all fields of research are interdependent, the Charr's military society and thus inherent lack of focus on individuality would prevent them from researching in all fields to satisfy individual interests, or simply researching for research's sake. This narrows their research to things with immediate military use, thus severely constricting potential leads and innovation. The fact that Charr are conscripted into the military shortly after birth also presents a problem. Only one of the four Charr factions has an explicit focus on technology and engineering, which immediately cuts the Charr's stock of researchers to 1/4th what it could be. After conscription, young Charr are then placed into a "warband" which they rarely ever leave. The fact that the warbands are assembled before any of the young Charrs' aptitudes can be determined means that it is near impossible to assemble a warband whose members have an appropriate balance of talents for a research project, and the rarity of Charr leaving their warband makes it that much harder to extract potential researchers from current warbands. A Charr's potential aptitude in research may never even be recognized if they're not given the opportunity to try it, and that's assuming that their superiors even care about research at all, which they should have no reason to since research is expensive gambling that's sure to not pay off in the short run, and each faction needs all the resources they can get to be in top shape to compete against the others. If anything, human society would be much more apt towards research since humans are free to pursue whatever fields they are best at or are interested in, ensuring that those who have an aptitude in research are much more likely to discover it and take up research than the Charr. Humans are also better equipped for communication which is central in the scientific peer-review process and also have a greater degree of room for independent thought and opinions, which a military structure would strike down immediately. Not to mention that successful inventors could become very rich. This is simply bad writing in an attempt to include a redeeming quality in a race which should not logically have it. The Charr should at best be at an equal level to the other races by stealing their technology, but should not be able to improve it without all the knowledge and skills that were used to create it. Charr society is fundamentally opposed to the forces of independent thought, personal curiosity, individual desires, and free communication, which fuel research.

Excellent post
Super cool travelogue!
Suddenly sad i live in California. So close and yet so far away!
Just means you can buy more pouches and fountain pens. Which pen was taken?

I use zip ties from Magellan's made specifically for traveling.
Oh my! Heheheh!
Hey Samo's here. She will love traveling with the bags.
I ordered a Pelikan M1000 with 3OB nib. I did not really shop, I worked for Susan Wirth' booth and hung with friends. I did get an vintage pen with a really flexy nib. Gonna learn Spencerian with it.
Got my bag today. Now to load it up!
Ordered a black/wasabi large Cafe bag today. Thanks for all the input!

Just ordered the lower pouch and straps for my Smart Alec. Let the waiting begin!
I will switch my bungee with accessory straps on my Smart Alec. That would work better for me. The pouches look cool but will not fit to the old Smart Alec. Still a nice electronics carrier!
Thanks! Very cool!
I pocket dump into my Travel Tray every night when I get home. It works so well.
Interesting updates. I really like the idea of a grab handle. I love my Smart Alec! I carry it to work everyday. I use the Brain Bag and Aeronaut for travel but the Smart Alec is perfect for getting...
Saw the stainless. Still using paper.
jmcrist, I carry a small Thermos. Most hotels provide hot water for tea so I use that. Getting hot water from restaurants is usually possible.
Yes, it probably would. I have since moved mine into a #2 travel bag, the oblong foot works better and it is flatter. A packing cube would be even flatter.

HMRC probes HSBC accounts after data leak
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
November 10, 2012 8:42 AM EST
HSBC, Europe's biggest bank, is at the centre of an investigation by British tax authorities into leaked data that a newspaper said showed it provided accounts in the tax haven of Jersey for alleged criminals.
The authorities confirmed they were looking into details of clients in the Channel island after being handed a list of names, addresses and account balances.
"We can confirm we have received the data and we are studying it. We receive information from a very wide range of sources which we use to ensure the tax rules are being respected," HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) said in a statement.
HSBC said it was investigating the alleged loss of client data, first reported in the Daily Telegraph, "as a matter of urgency".
The Telegraph said some of the clients were convicted criminals or facing criminal allegations.
"We have not been notified of any investigation in relation to this matter by HMRC or any other authority but, should we receive notification, we will cooperate fully with the authorities," the bank said on Friday.
HSBC said it was "fully committed to adoption of the highest global standards including the procedures for the acceptance of clients".
Like all banks, HSBC, which has been criticised by U.S. regulators for lax anti-money-laundering controls in Mexico and elsewhere and last year saw thousands of its Swiss clients probed by the British taxman, is obliged to report to authorities any suspicions about the source of money deposited in its accounts.
The bank's London-listed shares fell 0.33 percent to 600.9 pence on Friday, but outperformed the European banking index, which dropped 1.18 percent.
After the financial crisis, the banking industry around the world is under intense scrutiny over its standards and past practices, which have included mis-selling of financial products and interest-rate rigging. And banks have become caught up in cash-strapped governments' efforts to crack down on tax evaders sheltering money in offshore accounts.
"It feels to me like the banking sector is being seen as a money-stuffed piñata for everyone to have a whack at - be it regulators or governments or consumers," said one of HSBC's 10 biggest investors, who asked not to be named.
"I am very bothered, but is this an HSBC-specific issue? No, I do not think it is. I think that general standards of compliance are being challenged everywhere," the investor said.
Chief Executive Stuart Gulliver has not come under much pressure from investors since the damning U.S. money-laundering report as he took the helm only at the start of 2011. But he acknowledged this week it would take the industry time to clean up the mess from past mistakes.
"There are a whole series of things that came from probably a decade in the 2000 to 2008-09 period that have surfaced now that the industry needs to sort out, remediate, and make sure do not happen again," Gulliver said after setting aside more money on Monday for a potential U.S. fine.
HSBC said earlier this week that the U.S. probe into anti-money laundering failures could result in a fine well over $1.5 billion (943.7 million pounds) and also lead to criminal charges.
The bank also is being investigated by the Internal Revenue Service on issues relating to U.S.-based clients of a bank unit in India and by the IRS and the U.S. Department of Justice on U.S. tax reporting obligations of certain customers, HSBC said in a recent U.S. regulatory filing. It also said it is cooperating in a probe by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission over a Swiss private banking affiliate's dealings with U.S. resident clients.
Investors said the U.S. anti-money laundering scandal was a far bigger blow for the bank than a tax investigation would be.
"I do not think it's enough to derail the management. Gulliver is regarded materially more highly than his predecessor," a second top 10 investor in the bank said.
The leaked account data identified 4,388 British-based people holding 699 million pounds in current accounts, and also included celebrities, bankers, doctors, mining and oil executives and oil workers, according to the Daily Telegraph report. It also included about 4,000 account holders with addresses outside Britain.
HSBC's clients came under scrutiny from HMRC last year when the tax authority contacted up to 6,000 Swiss client account holders after getting their details following an exchange agreement with French authorities.

Many have said that the F10 M5 makes an impression closer to the E39 M5 than the immediately preceding E60 M5, by ditching the E60′s more avant garde lines and styling for the more direct and linear lines of the E39 generation. To us, this observation certainly has some merit, as borne out by the photo comparison below. To our eyes, the concept F10 M5 seemingly occupies the space between the E39 and E60 iterations – toning down the at-times controversial E60′s curvacious and nontraditional cutlines, … CONTINUED
We undertook yesterday a photo comparison of the F10 M5 concept versus the E60 M5 concept. But how does the F10 M5 compare to its direct German rivals – the Mercedes Benz E63 AMG and the Audi RS6. Let's take a look below.
F10 M5: (official photos and info):
Engine: High revving twinpower turbo V8
Transmission: 7-speed M DCT with M Drivelogic (manual transmission option status still unknown)
Differential: Active M Differential
Tires Front 265/35/ ZR 20
Tires Rear 295/30 ZR 20
Engine: 6.2L V8 525bhp … CONTINUED
The F10 M5 concept was officially unveiled online today [official photos/video/info] to much excitement and anticipation. The F10 M5 represents the successor to the now fabled E60 M5, which began production in 2005 and ended last year. The F10 M5 concept's official press release photos reminded us much of the E60 M5 concept's debut photos. We've posted up some comparison photos below.
Not much technical info or specs have been released so far for the F10 M5, but what we do know is that the engine will … CONTINUED
Car and Driver has the very first 1M vs. competition shootout, and the 1M emerged victorious over some formidable competition on some formidable grounds – versus the Audi TT RS and the Infiniti IPL G37 at the famed Tail of the Dragon roads. The 1M coupe was the "clear winner," and described as neither a performance poseur nor a cynical styling exercise.
You've all seen the Top Gear M3 vs C63 vs RS4 episode, now read about ex-Stig Ben Collins' personal review of each car from the episode. This is a great read [see inside]!
You probably guessed it after today's unveil of the revised Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG Coupe, here's the ultimate photo comparison between the Merc, the Audi RS5 and the beloved E92 M3 in Competition Package trim. Contrary to earlier rumors, the C63 AMG Coupe is powered by Merc's famous 6.2l V8, resulting in an maximum output of 451hp (481hp with optional AMG Development Pack) and a maximum torque of 443 lb-ft. Mercedes claims 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds. The C63 Coupe will be make its US showroom debut … CONTINUED
The all new 6-series coupe has just been unveiled and we think she's a beauty. Looks are of course in the eyes of the beholder, but we also think she compares favorably against the predecessor E63 6-series coupe, inside and out. We've put together a photo comparison so you can make your own judgements.
Here's how the new F13 6-series coupe compares with the outgoing model:
192.7 in. (4,894 mm) in length – 2.9 inch (74mm) increase over previous 6-series coupe
Here's the comparison we've all been waiting for – Top Gear's comparison between the E92 M3 with Competition Package and the Audi RS5. We won't spoil the result for you, but the comparison starts 4:40 into this video.
Here's another BMW vs. Mercedes photo comparison. Shortly after the world debut in their Super Bowl commercial, Mercedes unveiled the all new C-Class Coupe. It's based on the existing and well known C-Class variants and features — unlike any other coupe Mercedes-Benz makes — a B-pillar and fixed side/rear windows. Size, layout and even some design cues instantly identify it as a strong competitor for the E92 3-series Coupe LCI launched less than a year ago. See for yourself how both fare side to side with … CONTINUED
Here is an updated comparison of the now officially released C63 AMG facelift photos versus the E90 M3 sedan.
Unlike the CLS 63 AMG, the C63 AMG is still powered by the naturally aspirated 6.2 l V8, rated at 451hp and 443 lb-ft in the C63. Most significant changes are the switch from the traditional 7-speed auto to the AMG-MCT7 and the introduction of a Start/Stop feature. It's uncertain however if the latter will make it to the US.
Better be fast if you consider the E90 M3 … CONTINUED
BMW recently unveiled first details on their new 2 litre inline-4 TwinPower Turbo petrol engine. In terms of this engine's competitors, the first thing that comes to mind in terms of competition is Audi's 2.0TFSI engine. They currently run two engine generations, the older EA113 as still found in the TT-S and the newer EA888 powering virtually all 2.0TFSI models. The latter also includes Valvelift which is roughly comparable to BMW's Valvetronic.
Here are all figures you need to know to draw a comparison and figure … CONTINUED
German AMS has published an interesting article comparing the BMW 525d sedan with the Jaguar XF 3.0 V6 D.
Unlike the name suggests, the 525d is powered by BMW's N57 3.0l inline-6 Diesel engine, yet with a lower output of 204hp and 450 NM (530d: 258hp). It's quite popular in Europe because it's the entry level inline-6 Diesel. The car tested was matched with the optional 8-speed automatic.
Just like the name suggests, the Jaguar XF 3.0 V6 D is powered by a 275ph 3.0l V6 … CONTINUED

Too Wicked to Tame (Mass Market Paperback)
Not currently shipping from publisher – Subject to future availability
Would a Reluctant Beauty Ever Wed . . .
Headstrong Lady Portia Derring has an impeccable pedigree . . . and not a penny to her name. Which is why she is alone on the rain-swept Yorkshire moor, waiting for a wealthy earl she has never met but whom her family insists she wed. When she's nearly trampled by the blackguard's stallion, Portia is more determined than ever to refuse Heath Moreton's suit. Handsome devil he may be, but she could never marry a rogue who's so clearly out of control!
A Wild, Incorrigible Beast?
An avowed bachelor, scion of the notorious "Mad" Moreton clan, Heath won't be shackled in matrimony. Why then does this rain-drenched beauty excite him so? Desire consumes him, but the eminently beddable lady resists his well-practiced seductions. Now only one route remains: Heath must ignore his bad blood, vanquish his inner beast . . . and prove to Portia that she's the only woman capable of taming his heart.

Man in mislabeled meat case sentenced
BENNINGTON A Vermont man who used false labels saying the meat he sold from his New York poultry farm was free range and farm raised when it was bought from wholesalers has been sentenced to two years of probation.
Craig Acton of Bennington pleaded guilty to fraudulently using a USDA legend on meat he sold through his Buskirk, N.Y., farm.
He was sentenced Wednesday in U.S. District Court Northern District of New York.
The Bennington Banner reports prosecutor Daniel Hanlon said Acton would buy meat from other legitimate suppliers. He would use false USDA labels saying it was from his farm and qualifying as organic so it could be sold at a higher price.

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is calling for an overhaul of the state's bail system.
The senate has passed two new bills, but the assembly has yet to hold a vote.
The governor is pushing a pair of bills that would release low level criminals without making them pay bail and keep more dangerous suspects in jail.
Christie says he didn't want to call the special session, but bail reform is needed in New Jersey now.
"These changes are serious and when they are to be made they should be made by those people who are elected and therefore accountable," said Christie.
The Senate debated and passed two pieces of legislation.
The first would put a constitutional amendment on the November ballot asking residents if they want to grant judges the power to deny bail to those the court views as a danger to the public, or those who are considered a flight risk.
The second bill would create an alternative bail system for people who commit less dangerous crimes and can't afford bail.
People like Iquann Small, a man who spent four months in jail on a criminal mischief charge because he couldn't afford the $40,000 bail.
"I lost my job, spent time away from my family, it was just a bad situation," added Small.
Some legislators may not be so willing to pass the legislation before the August 4 deadline.
Warren County Senator Michael Doherty says he would only vote for the constitutional amendment, not the legislation that would create a new bail system.
"That has $40- or $50- million of new fees, which a lot of us call taxes so I am not voting for that," said Doherty.
New Jersey assembly members are not even meeting.
"We have some time until Monday," said Vincent Prieto, speaker of the New Jersey assembly. "Then I will make a decision after we hear the governor today speak."
"I can not force anyone in the legislature to vote," added Christie. "I hope it's your sense of fairness and justice that moves you to vote."
The assembly announced they will take up the issue on Monday.

Canonical Pushes Skype Into Ubuntu Repository
Published on 25 May 2010 09:01 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
7 Comments
In an interesting move that now makes it easier to use the popular Skype VoIP program on Ubuntu Linux, Canonical's Brian Thomason has uploaded the first Skype package into the Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" repository. Using Skype on Ubuntu is now only a
sudo apt-get install skype
away from being used.
Packaged currently in the Ubuntu Lucid repository is Skype 22.214.171.124 and it's a binary-only version for x86 and x86_64 Linux. Skype can now be found
on Launchpad
here is the package page
Again this is a closed-source version of Skype. We do know that
an open-source side to Skype
is being worked on and
an update is expected soon
, but with Canonical now pushing this Skype binary into Ubuntu Lucid makes us wonder if Skype and Canonical are working together on this new version or have any other dealings. Traditionally, Skype has not been available via distribution repositories but users have had to acquire it via their web-site.
