My memory to treasure is...
France holding hands and advancing in arrow head formation as the All Blacks
belted out their haka. You knew then that the French were up for the fight.
I will have nightmares about...
The first half of England's quarter-final. To go in 16 points down was bad
enough, but it was the lassitude, lack of shape and basic errors which hurt
I got out of my seat for...
Thierry Dusautoir's try. Criticised for his leadership of a fractured camp,
he came up with an individual performance in the final which defied belief.
And against McCaw of all people.
I put my head in my hands for...
Quade Cooper. The abuse he suffered from so-called rugby supporters was
disgraceful, and to get so badly injured when playing well in the bronze
final didn't seem fair.
My favourite quote...
"To have hope and faith in the future, you must first stand on the shoulders
of the past." Japan coach John Kirwan, under Tane Mahuta, the King of the
Forest, a 1500 year old, 52 metre tall, 14 metre wide kauri tree. It put the
World Cup into proper perspective.
England's tournament...
Shambolic, plodding, confused, depressing, charmless.
My money's on...
New Zealand for 2015 because the monkey is off their backs and they do the
basics better than any one.
Team of the tournament: I Dagg (NZ); G North (Wales), J Roberts
(Wales), M Nonu (NZ), C Jane (NZ); D Carter (NZ), M Phillips (Wales); T
Woodcock (NZ), K Mealamu (NZ), A Jones (Wales), L Nallet (Fra), V Mayfield
(SA), T Dusautoir (Fra), R McCaw (NZ), I Harinordoquy (Fra)
My memory to treasure...
The throng of humanity that swarmed into Auckland on the day of the final,
clad in black, thousands upon thousands of them, and not a word out of
place, a good-natured mob that enjoyed its day in the sun and its night in
I will have nightmares about…
The red card dished out by Alain Rolland to Wales captain, Sam Warburton.
What might have been….
I got out of my seat for…
The French response to the haka. It was theatrical, perfectly-judged and set
the defiant tone for what was to come.
I put my head in my hands for…
Samoa-Fiji. These two great flamboyant teams played as if they were dullards,
aping the limited ways of what they call in these parts, the boring European
My favourite quote...
'I'm completely shagged.' – Richie McCaw. Fair enough.
England summed up...
Crass, ill-disciplined, self-deluding, underwhelming, unloved
My money's on...
Wales for 2015. The tournament's (second) most thrilling outfit were well
worth a place in the final and should only get better.
Team of the tournament I Dagg (NZ); G North (Wales), C Smith (NZ), J
Roberts (Wales), D Ioane (Aus); D Carter (NZ), M Phillips (Wales); R Roncero
(Arg), M Tincu (Romania), O Franks (NZ), L Charteris (Wales), L Nallet
(France), J Kaino (NZ), T Dusautoir (France), I Harinordoquy (France)
My memory to treasure is ...
Arriving at 2am at the Devon Hotel New Plymouth after a horrible long drive
in lashing rain to be greeted by a cheery night porter with a fresh pot of
tea and cheese and pickle sandwich. Kiwi hospitality made this World Cup.
I will have nightmares about...
Sam Warburton's dismissal. Brilliant player, great bloke but horribly costly
moment for Wales. Losing a 700 word story off my computer screen at 2.30am
after the final and having to start again from scratch.
I got out of my seat for...
Gethin Jenkins' try against Nambia, to applaud Thierry Dusautoir as he came
off Eden Park after the final and to catch all the breathless action in the
first half of Ireland v Wales, the best 40 minutes action of the World Cup.
I put my head in my hands when...
Warren Gatland uttered his 'we considered feigning injury' comments; when I
saw that picture of Dan Carter's grimacing in pain as if shot by a sniper.
My favourite quote...
"We heard you were concerned about security issues, but let me reassure you
that half of New Zealand doesn't know where Whanganui is, so you're safe
from a terrorist attack." Mayor Piri Cribb, putting American minds to rest
ahead of 9/11
England's tournament...
Constipated, Crass, Charmless, Crude, Cringing.
My money's on...
New Zealand for 2015: Thats if CEO Steve Tew lets them turn up to defend
the title of course. Now the monkey if off their back look out for
Team of the tournament I Dagg (NZ); V Clerc (Fra), C Smith (NZ), J
Roberts (Wales), G North (Wales); D Carter (NZ), M Phillips (Wales); G
Jenkins (Wales), M Tincu (Rom), A Jones (Wales), B Thorn (NZ), L Nallet
(Fra), T Dusautoir (Fra), D Pocock (Aus), I Harinordoquy (Fra)
My memory to treasure is... The long trek with excited thousands from
Auckland harbour to Eden Park on final day. You have to love a country where
everyone dresses in funereal black for the biggest party of their lives.
I will have nightmares about...
The moment it dawned on poor old Sam Warburton that he was being red carded
against France and that Wales's dreams had almost certainly departed with
him. No one deserved the fate less.
I got out of my seat for...
Israel Dagg slicing through the Australian defence with such searing
brilliance in the semi-final that he came nearer than anyone to capturing
the Lomu x-factor here.
I put my head in my hands for...
Dan Carter on hearing that he was out through a freak injury. One of the
world's great sportsmen denied his hour after a sublime 20-minute spell
against France showed him still as the supreme 10.
My favourite quote...
"I told them they are a bunch of spoiled brats. Undisciplined, disobedient,
sometimes selfish. Always complaining, always whingeing." Bravo, Marc
Lievremont, for your unique approach to man management.
England's tournament...
Rugby players have shocker, shocker
My money's on...
New Zealand for 2015. With Dagg, Kahui, Read, Kaino, Owen Franks, Cruden etc
still around, why wouldn't they successfully defend? Even Carter could be
around at 33.
Team of the tournament I Dagg (NZ); J O'Connor (Aus), M Nonu (NZ), J
Roberts (Wales), V Clerc (Fra); D Carter (NZ), M Phillips (Wales); T
Woodcock (NZ), B du Plessis (SA), N Mas (Fra), P O'Connell (Ire), L Nallet
(Fra), J Kaino (NZ), D Pocock (Aus), I Harinordoquy (Fra)
My memory to treasure...
A local girl called Georgia, wearing a Wairarapa loves Georgia T-shirt, being
carried on the shoulders of Chkhaidze George and Victor Kolelishvili as
Featherston came out in the rain to welcome its adopted team. (great photo
by Ross Giblin of Fairfaz NZ if you can get it)
I will have nightmares about...
The endless thud of big men running into each other. Is this what rugby has
become, smashing the ball up time and time again until someone falls over
exhausted in the 73rd minute?
I got out of my seat for...
Tonga players cutting open France in the second half of their pool match.
They were already well ahead when four Tongans ran clear against one
defender and _ ¦they butchered it.
I put my head in my hands for...
Sam Warburton when he was shown the red card. Alain Rolland made the correct
decision, but Warburton and Wales did not deserve their World Cup to end
like that.
My favourite quote...
Marc Lievremont's: "I told them what I thought of them. That they're a bunch
of undisciplined, spoiled brats, disobedient, sometimes selfish, always
complaining, always whining, and they've been frustrating me for four
years." No doubletalk there.
England's tournament...
inept, graceless, dull, rude, arrogant
My money's on...
Australia for 2015. They have won two World Cups in Britain, they have a
young side that will be at its peak in four years time and they already know
how to defend.
Team of the tournament F Steyn (SA); C Jane (NZ), B O'Driscoll (Ire), J
Roberts (Wales), I Dagg (NZ); D Carter (NZ), W Genia (Aus); G Jenkins
(Wales), M Tincu (Rom), M Castrogiovanni (Ita), D Rossouw (SA), L Nallet
(Fra), J Kaino (NZ), D Pocock (Aus), I Harinordoquy (Fra)

There is more to Legos than little yellow men with square bodies living in a world of tiny blocks.
The toy that invites young minds to imagine and create is the medium of choice for artist Sean Kenney.
Inside his Long Island City workshop, koi fish leap into the air, lily pads the size of tractor-trailer wheels stand on black platforms and boxes upon boxes of two million unused bricks line a wall, color coordinated and waiting to become part of Kenney's newest creation.
"Working with Lego for a living is a lot of fun," he said. "I get to play with toys and make people smile; what better job could there be?"
After working at a desk job for 10 years, Kenney took a huge risk and became one of 13 professionals who use Lego pieces to design and build commissioned works, personalized gifts and contemporary art.
Legos have been around since 1934, when the Lego company was founded in Denmark.
Over the years, the bricks have maintained their popularity with both boys and girls but recently, a Lego craze has emerged.
Kenney said there are a number of contributing factors to the Lego obsession, the most recent being "The Lego Movie," based on the toy world. It was released last month and generated $30 million during its opening weekend
"Obviously 'The Lego Movie' has sparked a new interest but I also think it's because Lego toys are great; they really get kids' minds going," Kenney said. "Children become creative in a way that is very hands-on and real. Other crafty activities like drawing and finger painting do the same thing, but with Lego toys, when the child is done creating, they can also play with their creation!"
The Brooklyn resident sticks to these childlike creative roots when building even his largest piece — a life-sized polar bear made from 95,000 pieces.
"I don't use a computer to plan out my sculptures, it's far too complex and, if you ask me, it takes a lot of the fun out of it," Kenney said. "There's a lot of visualization required, and I often have to step back and examine the model from all sides as it's coming together. Once I have a prototype that I like, I'll rebuild it, glued, using the prototype as a template."
Sculptures can take anywhere from a few days to weeks or even months to be completed, depending on the size and complexity of the work.
But the hardest part about building a Lego sculpture is surprising.
"The most challenging thing is to create curved shapes with those hard, little plastic rectangles," Kenney said. "Making something round and curvy like a shoe or ball can be tricky, but the most complex thing is to create people's faces."
Kenney creates Lego lamps and custom portraits based on submitted photos, selling them on his website.
"Lego models and computer screens have something in common, "Kenney said about building portraits. "They're just a collection of dots, assembled to look like something else. If you zoom in on a photo, you get a blocky collection of dots. Duplicating that same pattern with Lego bricks can create a photo-realistic model."
Right now, the 'professional kid' is traveling around the world for his award-winning, international touring show, "Nature Connects."
The exhibit will travel through 2016 and was developed in conjunction with Iowa State University's Reiman Gardens in 2011.
"Some sculptures indicate the relationship between elements of nature, like a fox hunting a rabbit or lotus, koi, frog and water splattering sharing space in a pond," Kenney explained. "Others showcase the beauty of nature, like a giant, 7-foot-tall rose and a 5-foot-wide butterfly. There's also a life-sized lawn mower that visitors often mistake for the real thing, which is just good for a laugh."
As if that weren't enough Kenney is also working on his seventh children's book and operates the world's largest online Lego fan community.
"I've always been obsessed with Lego toys and I've always loved to create," he said. "Before sculpting Lego professionally, I was a cartoonist, graphic artist and web developer, and I often find ways to incorporate my cartooning skills into my sculptures or my books. It's the best of both worlds, so I can honestly say I never feel restricted."

The National Football League announced today that it will install Zebra Technologies' real-time location system (RTLS) for sports in 17 stadiums during the 2014 NFL season. This innovative technology will track players and officials, providing location based data known as "Next Gen Stats" to fans.
Zebra receivers installed throughout the stadium will communicate with radio-frequency identification (RFID) transmitters placed inside the shoulder pads of each player to capture precise location measurements, in real-time, during the game. Zebra's technology will collect data such as position, speed, and distance that will be registered and compiled into a database. This data can then be outputted to generate new experiences built around this additional data.
Seems like a pretty cool alternative to the video-based fielding tracking that MLB is instituting. Which one would be better?
Maybe they can start embedding these into the core of the actual baseball someday? I'm not sure how accurate these things are these days.

So GPS is only accurate to with something like 10 feet, right? And the speed displayed on my GPS is off a couple of MPH from what my car says (of course the GPS could me more accurate than the car, I guess). Obviously the precision on these things is much more accurate than that. I'm still impressed with the tracking that has to be done for the first down line.

Published Online:
4 December 2013
Cervical pre-cancer (cervical intraepithelial neoplasia) can be treated in different ways depending on the extent and nature of the disease. Less invasive treatments that do not require a hospital stay may be used. A general anaesthetic is occasionally needed, especially if the disease has spread locally, early invasion is suspected or previous out-patient treatment has failed. Surgery can be done with a knife, cryotherapy (freezing the abnormal cells), laser or cutting with a loop (an electrically charged wire). This review found there was not enough evidence to confidently select the most effective technique and that more research is needed.

Raspberry Pi
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. The product website calls it "a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games." It also plays high-definition video. Model A (US$ 25) has been redesigned to have 256MB RAM, one USB port and no Ethernet. Model B (US$ 35) has 256MB RAM, two USB ports and an Ethernet port.
Our offers about "Raspberry Pi"
Little Service
The versatile Raspberry Pi can serve many roles on a home network. We'll show you how to set up the Pi to provide some important network services.
Gateway to the World
Extend protection to all of your Internet traffic with a Raspberry Pi minicomputer set up as a cost-effective external proxy server.
Tiny Backup Box
With some creativity and a little scripting, you can easily turn your Raspberry Pi into an effective backup device.
We look at SharePoint integration and show you how to manage Active Directory from Linux. But first, a special story on a dangerous new class of intrusion tools.
If you are interested in Raspberry Pi:
Weather Watch
My new weather station has several sensors for wind, rain, and temperature, as well as a USB cable and evaluation software (Figure 1), albeit a desktop-only Windows application. However, I wanted to record the measured data and, if possible, access it on my cell phone while I was on the move.
Positioning a Windows PC running 24/ 7 next to my weather station was not an option; instead, I set my sights on the Raspberry Pi. Thus far, I had used it as a tiny media center with an equally tiny speaker, but by using its USB connection, my Pi could read the data output from the weather station. The power requirement is negligible compared with that of a full-size PC, and the Pi is silent. The question then arose: How can I acquire the data via USB if the station only comes with a Windows program?
Pi Configuration
Your Raspberry Pi can be freshly installed with the official recommended Debian Raspbian "wheezy" image from the Download page on the Raspberry Pi website. The tool set necessary to complete this project comprises a C program, Ruby, the Sinatra web application library, a database, and graphing software, all of which are introduced in the "Ingredient" sections of this article. Figure 2 shows how all the components interact and fit together.
Our culture and our economy is based on competing products with a similar purpose. The products all have features. We shop for the products by looking at the bulleted list of features on the label. The more features, the more people choose the product. Vendors race to develop new technologies so they can add more features, but at a certain point, some consumers just get bewildered and start to shop for fewer features – or at least for a product that brings enough clarity to the sea of features to restore the original purpose.
Smart Raspberry
Only 10 years ago, a large proportion of the population was satisfied with the possibilities of video players and analog satellite receivers. Now this primitive world of the past seems so far away. In our time, virtually all audio and video recordings are produced and distributed digitally. A single user interface can bundle several reception channels (e.g., digital video streams and Internet media libraries, as well as files residing on the local NAS devices). A variety of devices, including laptops, desktop PCs, and smartphones, interact with the media center in the living room through a local WiFi network. In addition to managing your movies, a smart mobile device also offers plugins for music files or a personal photo collection.
Do-it-yourself home theater PCs (HTPCs) were already on the rise at the start of the new millennium. Initially, these early HTPC systems were still desktop computers, with fancy new cases to make them more living-room-friendly. The energy costs and the purchase price of the hardware were correspondingly high. But the Community quickly had some new ideas. The XBMC media center software was originally developed for XBox consoles. Over the years, XBMC has been ported to a variety of platforms and operating systems. Hardware, software, and Internet bandwidth have evolved considerably over the last decade. Now, as in the past, you can spend thousands of dollars on a state-of-the-art system to play video streams and multimedia files, but if you are really looking to save money and space, one new platform outshines all others: XBMC with Raspberry Pi.
Build a Raspberry Pi Media Center
This month, Rasp Pi becomes a multimedia system, then we look at three great tools to create, manage, and monitor your virtual environments.
Meet the Baker
Launched on February 29, 2012, the Raspberry Pi, a computer the size of a credit card (Figure 1), has become one of free software's success stories. Despite the difficulties of manufacturing – there was briefly a limit of one per customer – the Pi, as it is popularly called, has sold nearly 900,000 copies and could easily sell a million by its first anniversary. "It's completely incredible," says founder Eben Upton, of all that has happened.
Now 34, Upton has been programming since he was 10 years old, starting with early computers like the BBC Microcomputer, the Commodore, and the Amiga. As an adult, he has been a member of the University of Cambridge's Computer Laboratory, the founder of Ideaworks Game Studio, and most recently, a chip engineer.
Scripting in LibreOffice
This month, we show you how to automate tasks in LibreOffice and give you some tools to tighten system security.
Fun Squared
Those of you who know me know that I designed electronics circuits in high school and then studied Electrical Engineering at Drexel University (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). Unfortunately during that career I was almost electrocuted by 13,600 volts and 800 amps (twice!). Fortunately I found software as much fun and a lot safer, other than paper cuts from ripping printouts. Back in those days electronic components were very expensive (US$ 128,000 for 64KB of core memory), so I took the software route and let someone else pay for the hardware.
I continued to be interested in hardware, and I even assembled my own computer from chips and prototyped digital circuits with the use of breadboards, sometimes with wire-wrapping. Soldering tens of thousands of pins perfected my soldering technique, and you really don't want to know about the wire-wrapping.
New Raspberry Pi Camera
The popular Raspberry Pi single-board Linux computer gets a new add-on camera device.
Pi Are Squared
British engineer Eben Upton and a team of like-minded hardware hackers started the Raspberry Pi project as a means for providing affordable computer technology for interested young people. The objective was to develop and market a singleboard, credit-card-sized computer compatible with the often-narrow budget of the target group (see the "History" box).
If you find yourself reminded of the first home computers, you are not completely off-target: The explicit goal of the founders was to recolonize basements, garages, and classrooms with the spirit of the generation that had grown up with the Atari 400/ 800, ZX80/ 81, or VC20/ C64.
Pi Stuffing
Because it's small, cheap, and silent, Raspberry Pi (RPi) is a perfect candidate for server duties. Although you can certainly install and run heavyweight applications like WordPress or Gallery on an RPi, that's probably not the most sensible approach, considering the machine's modest hardware specifications. Instead, you might want to opt for lightweight alternatives. In fact, quite a few server applications are a perfect fit for the little machine.

Penn Brewery tells the story of Pittsburgh's European immigrants through its craft beer and homemade cuisine. Pittsburgh's oldest and largest brewery, Penn is housed in the mid nineteenth-century landmark E&O Brewery Building in the North Side's Deutschtown neighborhood, which was settled by German immigrants. Penn has been producing high-end craft beers since 1986, specializing in authentic, award-winning German-style beers brewed in the tradition of these immigrants, according to the strict quality standards of Reinheitsgebot. Our beers' great taste comes from real German hops and two-row barley, with no added corn or rice fillers.
Penn Brewery's restaurant serves traditional "Euro-Pittsburgh" fare including wurst, schnitzel, pierogi, and goulash alongside our beers. In the spirit of our classic Pittsburgh theme, our menu emphasizes fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. Penn is open for lunch and dinner - Monday through Saturday, 11:00 am to midnight and Sunday from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm - and regularly hosts live entertainment. A lovely cobblestone biergarten is open seasonally. Private party bookings are also available.
Penn Brewery. Pure. Pittsburgh.

RyTunes - Christina Grimmie
by Kiss Intern:Ryan
posted Mar 26 2013 10:03AM
We're in the big leagues now, ladies and gentlemen. Sitting pretty up top with a whopping 2,000,000 subscribers, Christina Grimmie is the veritable Queen of YouTube Music. This girl from New Jersey, characterized by her hair (nicknamed "The Grimmie Poof") and her incredible voice and vocal range, took the hearts and ears of viewers at age 15 with her very first video: a cover of "IDon't Wanna Be Torn" originally by Hannah Montana. From that day, Christina would sit herself down in front of a camera with her electric keyboard, her voice, and her collection of Zelda posters, and record herself covering one of the popular songs of the day.
It is worth noting that Christina didn't record her first video for YouTube. She was merely looking to share it with a friend, a friend that convinced her to post the video to YouTube. Hundreds of millions of video views later, it's safe to say that Christina is thankful she did.
Grimmie isn't limited to covers of popular songs, not by a long shot. Her first EP "Find Me" debuted at #31 on the Billboard 200 and peaked at #11 on Billboard's digital charts. Since then, Christina has toured with American Idol as something of a behind the scenes journalist/ video blogger, released more videos on her YouTube channel
and has been working on her next album. She has been called "the biggest YouTube singing sensation since Justin Bieber" and she thoroughly deserves it.
Here, have a Grimmie video.

NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Gulfport Energy Corp. (GPOR - Get Report) was upgraded to "buy" from "hold" at Stifel Nicolaus (SF - Get Report) on Monday.
The firm said it raised its rating on the independent oil and natural gas exploration company based on a valuation call.
Gulfport opened higher by 1.83% to $56.76 today.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more.Separately, TheStreet Ratings team rates GULFPORT ENERGY CORP as a Buy with a ratings score of B. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate GULFPORT ENERGY CORP (GPOR) a BUY. This is driven by a few notable strengths, which we believe should have a greater impact than any weaknesses, and should give investors a better performance opportunity than most stocks we cover. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its robust revenue growth, expanding profit margins, increase in net income and increase in stock price during the past year. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows weak operating cash flow." Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:
- GPOR's very impressive revenue growth greatly exceeded the industry average of 2.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues leaped by 63.1%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displaying stagnant earnings per share.
- The gross profit margin for GULFPORT ENERGY CORP is currently very high, coming in at 73.75%. Regardless of GPOR's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, GPOR's net profit margin of 41.79% significantly outperformed against the industry.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has exceeded that of the S&P 500, but is less than that of the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry average. The net income increased by 9.2% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, going from $43.83 million to $47.85 million.
- GULFPORT ENERGY CORP reported flat earnings per share in the most recent quarter. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, GULFPORT ENERGY CORP increased its bottom line by earning $1.99 versus $1.28 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 64.3% in earnings ($0.71 versus $1.99).
- Compared to where it was 12 months ago, the stock is up, but it has so far lagged the appreciation in the S&P 500. Looking ahead, the stock's rise over the last year has already helped drive it to a level which is relatively expensive compared to the rest of its industry. We feel, however, that the other strengths this company displays justify these higher price levels.

Re:Name? (388 comments)
One fellow did this to me three times in the same week. The first two times I merely changed the password and deactivated the account with a quickness. When it happened a third time, I figured I'd teach him a lesson. I let him add all his high-school friends, family and co-workers at the ice-cream parlor over the next week or two, then changed the password, Goatse'd his profile, and sent notices out to all of them. "If little Johnny Junior would like a Facebook account, tell him to get his own. This one is attached to my email address.". I let it sink in for a couple days before putting the kibosh on it.
Johnny's dad was amused and sent me an apology. It seems that Johnny Senior had signed up for a super-spammy dating site with my email address some years ago and I'd Goatse'd his profile in response.
Re:Declared underweight? (361 comments)
They do operate on the honor system, basically.
When the port (or a railroad) accepts the container, it comes with a shipper certified weight attached to it in the computer. In rare cases the railroad or port will 'fudge' the weight closer to reality, reweigh it, or hold it for inspection. I'd say if you had a slightly overweight container you could get away with it 99.99% of the time.
Scavenging.. (212 comments)
I had to support a manufacturing company 15 years ago that was using (at the time) 15-20 year old gear. I did it by scavenging and making it myself. Robot needs a new SSDD floppy drive? Flea market Commodore. RAM in the Soviet S100 clone going bad? Take apart a broken synth. Winchester drive controller going tits up? Drive around and look at all the junk bins of every computer shop in the county. Need to move a bit of kit but now the non-standard 45-pin cable is too short? Clip the ends off and Radio Shack them to RS-232. I also swapped a lot of gear around; The DOS machine that was used to program one robot was gradually upgraded from an 8088 machine to a 486 as I stole parts from it to keep the CP/M-86 one running.
The other thing I did a lot of was preventative maintenance. Blow out the dust, check the power supply, clean the disc drive, make sure everything is well seated. Switches got lubed, cables checked for faults, and media replaced.
Re:Something It Isn't (775 comments)
I've done jobs that required me to carry a non-camera phone. Simply proving that the camera was non-functional was good enough to keep my shiny smart-phone. Remove the back panel, apply a bit of electrical tape between the camera module and the external cover and Bob's your uncle.
The worst I ever had to do was take apart the vendor firmware and replace the camera binary with another application, then fudge a checksum somewhere and document the entire process. That company was super paranoid, but it saved me carrying a WinCE PDA, Palm PDA, three cables and a dumb-phone, plus chargers for each of them.
Just wipe the camera APK in a provable way and tell them to shove off.

So what do you think about fitting power brakes to a MG TD?

Re:I might not be cool enough for a 4 digit ID... (9 comments)
There some more of us out here in Seattle. My wife has a smaller ID than I do, and I know a few more folks with lower ID numbers than mine in Seattle and the environs.
Not quite sure if I'm going to be able to make it to SLU next weekend though, have to spend a week out of town shortly after.
Multi-pronged approach is best.. (348 comments)
Only one form of spicy is wrong. Take the noodles I had for lunch, which had a diced serrano, a fat pinch of smoked jalapeno powder, and two squirts of chili oil in 'em.
Or my standard scrambled egg recipe, which stars white and black pepper, chipotle peppers (roughly chopped), and habanero peppers (finely chopped). Toss them on a plate with hash browns, add salt and tabasco. Mmmmmm!
Re:Remember (631 comments)
Clarkson and May were both automotive print journalists and reviewers/presenters on the old, more serious 'Top Gear', and Hammond was a professional radio and TV host, including a stint on 'Motor Week'.
In addition, they're all giant children.
So yes, they're all experts at what they do; Talk about cars and act like children on television.
Re:I'd better not be able to... (218 comments)
I saw a lot of that at one job, though I can't blame HR or management. I know IT was being CC'd on firings/layoffs/etc, they just never did anything about it.
One employee quit to pursue a college degree. When he returned three years later, his uid/pass still worked. Another, a friend of mine, supplied me with his user/pass on the way to retirement; It worked five years later, and probably still works now, ten years on.
Re:A better PC health idea (413 comments)
Hmm. Maybe you're right. I looked around for some numbers, and it looks like it took Microsoft nearly three years to take 20% with Vista. Win7 is currently at 19% after only one year.
Re:A better PC health idea (413 comments)
They've seen the horrible uptake numbers from Vista continue with Windows 7.
Step 1. Convince everyone to get behind the idea of black-holing insecure or infected machines.
Step 2. End support for all versions of Windows other than the current.
Step 3. Wait for a new remote vulnerability in older versions.
Step 4. Refuse to patch the issue.
Step 5. Profit as everyone either has to buy a new PC or a newer operating system to access the internet.
Just think about it. Something like two thirds of machines running a Microsoft operating system are still running the end-of-life Windows XP.
Virus Creation Laboratory? (366 comments)
A friend of mine who taught at a community college actually did this back in the mid 90s. He took a copy of Nowhere Man's Virus Creation Lab and tossed together a couple annoying but non-destructive viruses and infected a few stand alone machines for the students to play with.
You can probably still find VCL out there, or a more modern DIY virus kit. Though with the new ones, I'm not sure I would trust they don't have any hidden functionality.
Antique! (417 comments)
Why not just get him an antique? Kiddo can't hose the OS install on a Apple II or a Commodore 64, and they're pretty indestructible.
At $20-40 on eBay, they're cheap too.
I have an identical one. (533 comments)
Well, it *was* identical spec when new. The case has been missing since the late '90's, the 8088 is now a NEC V20, the clock speed is now ~17MHz, and the parallel port has a resistor based DAC free-soldered onto it, but it still runs. I use a single density 3 1/2 floppy to boot FreeDOS and then run a terminal emulator, though it has also run Minix, Xenix and Linux over the years.
If you have trouble getting FreeDOS to run, I still have the original EPSON DOS disk images somewhere.
Re:People often ignore depreciation (1137 comments)
Do what I do. Drive something nice and old. The cost to run is higher, but depreciation is zero.
Here's an example. 1980's Porsche 928, with a little shopping you can get one for under $8000 with 20K on the odometer. I can drive it 50K miles over the next five years and still sell it for $8000, with the only likely mechanical costs being brakes and tires.
Sorry, public transportation.. (1137 comments)
Now here's the problem in the calculation. Car round trip in heavy traffic is about an hour, and depending on the day the bus can take anywhere from 2:30 to 3:15 to cover the same 40 miles.
That's 390-585 hours per year to save $320.
Until the prevailing wage falls to 50 cents an hour, no thanks.
Ran the calculation for my wife as well. If she were able to take a bus instead of driving, she'd waste only 195 hours per year, but public transportation would save her -$18.
Re:goat_cx? (126 comments)
He was here for a couple months. Sometime in the middle of February I managed to get him with with a single post containing tubgirl, goatse, and the giver; He went blind.
Glad to see he's finally gotten the hang of his Braille screen reader at least.
It occurred to me, after being placed in the position of arguing that the internet wasn't just for porn, that I should watch the porn industry as a whole a bit closer..
The instant they figure out a better way to deliver tentacle porn to the bedrooms of school children, I need to find a different career.
It's like the growth of interconnected digital networks, with their vast and complicated subsystems, are merely a side effect of the libedo of teenagers.
If you think that by threatening me you can get me to do what you want... Well, that's where you're right. But - and I am only saying that because I care - there's a lot of decaffeinated brands on the market that are just as tasty as the real thing.

Forever Endeavor Farm
By: Kellie Welch (Nov 21, 2009)
I have purchased beef and pork from this farm and it has been wonderful. I have been impressed with the quality of the meat and the helpful and responsiveness of the farmer to my questions. I am local and wanted hormone free meat for my children.

Gear Review
Angela Middleton
Norfolks are stylee and warm but size up!
Great boots but order a .5 size up (wear an 8, ordered an 8 and its a little too tight for comfort) to compensate for the faux fur lining on the inside of the boot. The height is perfect for the stylee below-the-knee high fashion boot. The rounded-toe gives the style a little bit of a femme motorcycle look but no matter what you wear em with, they look great. The faux fur peaks out the top giving it a winter look so I won't be able to rock these at a summer event which is fine...all the more reason to go shoe-shopping again! All in all, I give these a thumbs up for fashion and function...just need to be mindful of the sizing.

Top 10 Celebrity Love Stories Of 2010
5. Lots Of Celebs Have Secret Weddings. Although most stars love to do everything—especially their weddings—big, there was a very un-celeb-like trend this year of keeping things on the down-low. In March, longtime loves Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen wed secretly in Paris. In May, Jane Lynch married Dr. Lara Embry among 19 close friends and family members at a Massachusetts restaurant. In July, Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem (soon-to-be parents) quietly wed in the Bahamas, while Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kerr (also soon-to-be parents) pulled a fast one by eloping to the Caribbean just a few weeks after officially announcing their engagement. In August, True Blood couple Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer snuck off to a Malibu beach to exchange vows. And in October, David Schwimmer finally revealed that he married girlfriend Zoe Buckman over the summer. Perhaps the biggest surprise of all was Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green's hush-hush Hawaiian wedding in June. Isn't Megan Fox not drawing attention to herself one of the signs of the Apocalypse? If it was nearing the beginning of 2012, we'd be very worried.
4. Kelly Preston And John Travolta Conceive "Miracle Baby." A little over a year after the tragic death of their teenage son, Jett, 47-year-old Kelly confirmed in May that she and John, 56, were expecting. While a new baby (also a boy) certainly can't "replace" the child they lost, he may help the Travoltas (including 10-year-old daughter Ella Bleu) heal and move forward through their grief. Kelly should be giving birth to the couple's son any day now!
3. Katy Perry And Russell Brand Get Married. When these two hooked up at last year's MTV VMAs, we thought the relationship would provide some hot gossip fodder for a few weeks before spectacularly exploding. So, it was a shock when Russell suddenly threw out his little black book and popped the question at the beginning of 2010. And it was an even bigger shock when he didn't chicken out of his and Katy's lavish Indian wedding in October. We may have been unsure of this coupling at first, but we can't help but root for them now. They just fit!
2. Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher show a united front. In September, Demi and Ashton's five-year May/December marriage took a hit when it was reported that Ashton had an affair with 21-year-old Brittney Jones. Amid Brittney's never-ending famewhoring and rumors that Ashton's had a string of younger women, the couple continued to make public appearances and insist that their (possibly open) marriage is as strong as ever.
1. Prince William And Kate Middleton Royally Engage. Celeb lovers here and across the pond were excited to learn late this year that the UK's dreamiest Prince finally popped the question to his fashionable gal pal. William and Kate's April wedding at Westminster Abbey will no doubt be one of the top stories of 2011!

Maybe the one you are looking for is the full sized Centennial? I just bought one today. the description says

I love my red crape. It's foliage is a wine red also. Makes it interesting all year. |

Greenwood nursery offers "the Arapaho Crape myrtle ... one of the newest introductions from the U. S. National Arboretum. It is best known for its strong red crepe like flowers. Most red crapes display varying shades of pink, from light to dark. This is the only consistent red colored available that shows a high degree of mildew resistance." I personally don't know a thing about this plant but thought I'd pass it along. Link below. |
