Then we would toss back a few burgers, BS for a while, then go wheeling! So I would love to start something like that out down here.
This initial post will have a few different dates on the calendar, and I would like those who are interested to post a reply with what dates of these they can, AND can't attend. This way it will be easier to determine a specific date. The first get together I will offer up to have at my place in Navarre. Being located next to Eglin AFB, there are several good wheeling locations nearby for afterward.
I will say this: While I support each and their own the freedom to toss a few beers back, there will be NO alcohol consumed BEFORE we ride. I am not interested in dealing with drunk or "buzzed" people trying to get out and wheel. After we wheel you can feel free to come back and we can toss a few beers back, play some pool, and have a fun time.
So we have selected the 10th as an official date for the meet.
Saturday, January 10th, 2015
I will do what I can to provide chips, soda, dip, etc. May even have hotdogs. If you all like the idea, I can ask for a $5 per person donation, and I will use the funds to get all of this, and some other foods. (Burgers and hot dogs are always popular)
So let me know what you all think!

Pirates dent Bristol's promotion hopes

Cornish Pirates dented Bristol's hopes of promotion to the Aviva Premiership with a thumping 45-24 victory in their Championship semi-final first leg clash at Mennaye Field.
Bristol finished the regular season at the top of the table and having reportedly met the Premiership's minimum standards criteria, they went into the game as favourites to replace Newcastle in the top flight after the Falcons lost their relegation showdown with London Wasps on Saturday.
However, the Pirates, who are not eligible for promotion as their stadium lacks the necessary facilities to host top-flight rugby, upset the odds with five second-half tries putting them firmly in control of the contest.
Tries from James Merriman and Will Helu helped Bristol into a 17-9 half-time lead with three penalties from Rob Cook keeping the Pirates in touch. Cook would cross for his side's first try shortly after the break and his side would add four more with prop Carl Rimmer adding two and wingers David Doherty and Grant Pointer also crossing. Bristol threatened to make a game of it with Helu's second try but they had little answer to the Pirates' late onslaught.
The Pirates are on course to meet London Welsh in the two-legged final (May 23 and 30) after the Exiles claimed a 13-3 victory over Bedford Blues in their opening semi-final clash at Goldington Road on Friday night.
Centre Hudson Tonga'uiha crossed for the game's only try in the first half with a conversion and two penalties from fullback Alex Davies taking them out to a 13-0 lead at the break. The hosts could only register a second half penalty courtesy of captain James Pritchard and therefore have it all to do in the second leg at Old Deer Park next Sunday.
London Welsh are understood to pursuing possible promotion with the exact detail of a possible groundshare with Brentford FC an apparent sticking point. Other reports suggest they are considering a legal challenge to the criteria laid down by Premiership Rugby.
Premiership Rugby and the RFU are expected to make an announcement regarding promotion to the Premiership before the first leg of the Championship final on May 23.

The country's policy makers are faced with having to make decisions about how best to utilize the gas in order to drive economic development The options before the government are whether to export the gas or to use it domestically. Exporting natural gas can be a very lucrative source of government revenues which can in turn be invested in improving education, access to healthcare or other areas to improve the general and economic well-being of the populace. Encouraging domestic use on the other hand may not be as lucrative in terms of government revenues, but is necessary for increasing participation along the gas value chain in particular and stimulating in other sectors of the economy that benefit from easy access to gas or its downstream products. In this study, I considered the options of using the gas in the production of liquefied natural gas (LNG) intended for export, as well the domestic manufacture of urea and electricity. I used a scenario analysis model to investigate and assess these options according to their direct economic value as well as their revenue generating potential. These two parameters were chosen as proxies for and economic growth and government ability to invest in public goods respectively. As part of the assessments carried out, special attention was paid to the different scenarios associated with meeting the government's national electrification plans as determined by their electricity demand forecasts. The results show that among the options considered, domestic utilization of the gas for power production will have greatest economic value while LNG exports hold the highest revenue potential. Furthermore, they demonstrate that even though using the natural gas for electricity production would be the most valuable option for the Tanzanian economy per unit of gas, allowing new generating capacity to be dominated by gas plants as has been done in some other gas rich countries would not be economically prudent. Instead a mix of technologies will provide the best balance between stimulating domestic gas consumption and providing cost effective electricity to consumers. Importantly, I find that future policy must ensure that domestic utilization of gas is not sacrificed in favor of exports even if it means reduced government revenues.

Do we really need yet another Apple-controlled walled garden? Don't we have enough of those already?
Yes. No.
Apple is not a gamer company.
Neither was MS, before the first Xbox. Neither was Sony, before the first PlayStation.
Gamers want to be able to tweak their hardware and Apple is not likely to allow this.
Wot, and Nintendo, MS and Sony *do* allow this? Ask geohot about his experiences with that.
A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

I'm a freelance web-developer that specialises in PHP with a background in C, with an extensive experience in Drupal content management system (9 years and counting!) .
This blog is a dumping-ground for research, thoughts and developments.
Email email@example.com dgtlmoon
Saw this recently in a bank statement
Make's me think again how important TESTING TESTING TESTING is :)
Yeah OK, so it happened, I knew it would.
All my sensors on a very remote rPI installation (on the other side of the world infact) stopped working after an update, so my first guess was that they've changed something.
Recently for fun I setup "TShirtSlayer Radio", designed to let the community members of TShirtSlayer ( who are often also in their own metal bands ) upload their songs to the new radio station.
This had a few key requirements
- They had to use their existing Drupal account to login and upload the songs (mp3/wav/etc)
- The actual internet stream radio station website would be a subsite (radio.tshirtslayer.com)
- The subsite had to have some functionality like being able to request a track
Recently I picked up a cheap JPEG Color Camera LS-Y201 from eBay, I didn't expect it to be amazing but the interesting thing is that if you're on a low-end Arduino (atmega328 based), then SoftwareSerial is not recommended to go about 19200BPS.
Now all good and well you say, because the LS-Y201 has a function to change the bitrate down to 19200 from the default 38400
Wrong! The LS-Y201 has a bug when setting the baudrate, more about that bug here
So unlike Chrome, Firefox will ALWAYS apply the embedded ICC colour profile to an image, adding the adobeRGB1998.icc profile is not what you want todo here, you want to be sure you've removed all the profiles.
Noodling around with (un)setting various colour profile values in TheGimp did not help
Fortunately imagemagick to the rescue again, I simply used the -strip option to remove all profile and comment info
Whilst the general regex validation of email addresses is fairly good in Drupal, what happens if they enter a domain that does not exist? Well they can still sign up, and the email will bounce.
Let's use the simple but reliable dns_get_record in PHP to do the dirty work for us.
function my_helper_form_user_register_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state) { $form['#validate'][] = 'my_email_form_validate';
Using some simple bash command like awk and sed, I cooked up this quick drush hack to examine the server logs, there's a specific robot getting around that continuously hits up the "/user/password?name=xyz" URL, this simple line fed script grabs the IP address in the first column, sort's them, counts how many uniq's there are, then uses awk again to only print out IP's that have tried this URL more than 2 times.
Ok so this one is a bit of a hack, but on my TShirtSlayer website it fits very nicely.
Essentially I wanted to do something similar to the way FB does automatic realtime notifications but instead of focusing on people, I wanted the the focus to be on the taxonomy (things added to the site broken down by category), this is our message/event we want to spread to other users.

Multimedia Review depicts people, organization continuously adapting to meet client and community needs
25 January 2012, Hong Kong
The KPMG International Annual Review 2011, released today, records a year of milestones for the KPMG global network of professional firms - including double-digit growth, a reduced carbon footprint and a ranking as Universum's most attractive employer in the world, just behind Google.
"For the second year in a row, we're also the fastest growing of the Big Four, a record that demonstrates the marketplace is responding very positively to KPMG," says Michael Andrew, Chairman, KPMG International, who began his term on October 1, 2011. Based in Hong Kong, Andrew is the first Big Four leader to be headquartered in Asia.
"The KPMG International Annual Review offers a glimpse into our unique culture, one that's extremely globally minded and client focused," Andrew said. "We're aligning our investments and mobilizing our people across borders to bring the right skills within KPMG to the right client opportunity. We know that great clients need great people."
Telling the KPMG Client Service Story
The Review, which contains video and animated graphics, tells the KPMG story with client service examples like: continued investment in China, with China practices now operating in 41 countries; focus on key industries and Centers of Excellence that unite KPMG's experts in specific industries; and, acquisitions that expand high-demand service offerings including areas in Tax and Management Consulting.
Helping Clients Respond to 'Real-World' Needs
In the 2011 Review, KPMG leaders talk about helping clients respond to real-world business challenges across the globe in 2011.
• For Mark Goodburn, Global Head of Advisory, transformation tops the agenda, particularly when it comes to helping companies adapt to dramatic changes in regulation.
• Greg Wiebe, Global Head of Tax, explains how his teams leverage member firms worldwide to help multinationals respond to constantly changing tax systems.
• Joachim Schindler, Global Head of Audit, stresses the importance of quality, as well as services such as Integrated Reporting, something clients increasingly desire.
People and Communities
High performing people play the pivotal role in driving KPMG's growth and relevancy to clients. In a video in the 2011 Review, Rachel Campbell, Global Head of People, says she looks for "people who have a global mindset, who are forward thinking, who can really add value, who are absolutely expert at what they do and who are passionate about what they do."
An interactive world map highlights some of our contributions to the places we live and work while Lord Michael Hastings, Head of Corporate Social Responsibility, explains the three pillars of KPMG's citizenship strategy.

Safari in the City: InterContinental Nairobi Frames Lions Against the City Skyline
August 26, 2009
By: Daniel L. Moses
Nairobi, Kenya is the first major world city to boast its own National Park and game reserve. But Nairobi National Park isn't the only draw of this city of more than 1.5 million residents. With the East African Community creating a free trade zone amongst its member nations, Nairobi is as practical for the business traveler as it is for the safari trekker. Located in the middle of all this activity, is Nairobi's own InterContinental Hotel. Newly renovated in 2007, the long time pillar amongst Nairobi's lodgings is now taking its place among the elite hotels on the continent. The multi-lingual staff is known for their attention to detail, and delicately cares for the nearly 400 rooms. And for that trip to the Nairobi National Park, they can take care of that too, on arrival or in advance. They might not guarantee a sighting of the elusive black rhino, but they can certainly guarantee a relaxing, comfortable experience throughout. Check out the InterContinental Nairobi's luxury safari packages when booking your African vacation.

InterContinental Hotels & Resorts Expands into Angola with the InterContinental Luanda
August 25, 2009
By: Daniel L. Moses
With a location along the pristine South Atlantic Coast of western Africa, Luanda, the capital of the former Portuguese colony of Angola, is brimming with Old World architecture and culture in a setting that's decidedly African in temperament. The slow pace of life and temperate climate (the average temperature is around 80 degrees Fahrenheit) may remind some of the islands, yet the emerging business district in central Luanda will likely bring to mind the bustle of Wall Street. Luanda is booming. The opening of the InterContinental chain's newest hotel is timed perfectly to coincide with the rising tide of Luanda's fortunes. The palatial new property is scheduled to open in late 2009 in the leafy Miramar district, home to most of the country's foreign embassies as well as many of its finest restaurants. With 389 rooms, three restaurants, two bars, an indoor and outdoor pool as well as a fully equipped gym, and more than 1000 square meters of space between its boardrooms and ballrooms, the InterContinental Luanda is certainly primed to take advantage of all that Luanda's future is offering, and then some.

New in Tanzania's Serengeti National Park: The Bilila Lodge Kempinski
July 28, 2009
By: Mary Winston Nicklin
A new luxury lodge has opened its doors in Serengeti National Park, a Unesco World Heritage Site, with the President of Tanzania presiding at the official opening ceremony. With an infinity pool overlooking an active waterhole with the plains as a backdrop, the Bilila Lodge Kempinski promises an indulgent experience surrounded by the wonders of the African Bush. The Independent (UK) reports:
The hotel is, without caveats, a five-star experience despite the remote location. That means hot showers, air-conditioning, food and drink to cater to western tastes, super-attentive service and spotless hygiene. The tech facilities (24/7 WiFi for iPhone and crackberry addicts, and dozens of satellite TV channels) are slick enough to be disorienting. It's Africa, Jim – but not as many of us know it.
The hotel's 74 guest rooms are richly decorated with African artwork; some offer private teak decks for game viewing. An array of spa treatments are available at the on-site Anantara spa. Take advantage of a special introductory offer where you can "Stay 3, Pay 2." Available until September 30, 2009.

Copper Trellis and Leaching, do you have one?
This is my first post. I have several raised bed organic gardens and am looking at building some copper trellises this year to use in them. On the web I'm seeing a lot of conflicting information about the use of copper due to excessive leaching. However this seems to come down to peoples opinions on the matter and not real world use.
Considering organic gardeners are in general the most picky of what they use around or in their garden I wanted to ask here if anyone is using a copper trellis and if there is any problems with leaching.
I would like to switch to something more long lasting after going through several wooden trellises already. I like the look of copper, especially when considering how it ages.
Any advice or tips would be appreciated.
While Copper is an essential micro nutrient in soil excess quantities, just like any other nutrient, can result in problems, poor growth, plant diseases, etc. Copper could accumulate in more than micro nutrient quantities if used in the gaden, but it would take a long time and be in a very limited area since it would not move about in the soil.
If copper was a real problem organic gardeners would not be using copper strips for slug control, moving water to the garden, or one of the many other things gardeners often use copper for. I have a tutour made of copper pipe as well as coils used to help support some plants that tend to flop around and the soil tests do not indicate an increase in copper in the soil, at least yet.
Thanks for the response, that's very helpful. It does seem like whatever trace amounts could come from copper would be hard to be concentrated enough to cause the damage you are referring to. I may take extra precaution where the pipe enters the soil
I have a site in fla with high levels of copper in the ground due to the use of copper sulfate on the citrus trees, formerly.
Over 4 -7 ppm is considered high, depending on ph and soil type. You can figure out roughly how many pounds of soil are around your trellis (there are about 2 million pounds in the top half-foot of an acre), and the approximate weight of the trellis, and then calculate that if the entire thing dissolved (which would take hundreds of years or more in the absence of some reaction) how many ppm would it amount to?

Curt Schilling's 38 Studios Struggling Financially 158

Trust me, the rape never ended.
You need to get out of your basement once in a while.
Isn't this really the sort of knowledge gained by spending more time in the basement?
Schilling's Bloody Sock is one of the most famous incidents in American sports in the 21st century [wikipedia.org], and occurred during the most-remembered playoff series in baseball of the last few decades. Lots of people who aren't basement dwellers know all about it.
A basement dweller hears Schilling's name and remembers that only 4.9% of the runs that Schilling allowed over his career were unearned, which is the lowest percentage for any pitcher with a long career. We, er, *they* know that this means that ERA undervalues Schilling, because preventing unearned runs is a skill -- you do it by striking out batters, not walking anyone, and getting batters to hit fly balls rather than ground balls.
Basement dwellers, and a lot of other people, also know that Schilling has been a very outspoken conservative proponent of small government for many years. He'd say that a free-spending government corrupts the market, corrupts individuals, and leads to lots of waste. I guess he just went out and proved himself right!
Now if you'll excuse me, Mom says that lunch is ready. Hope it isn't PB&J again!

Smartphone content buyers generated higher CTRs than non-content buyers, says OPA study.
An August report released by the Online Publishers Association found that 38 percent of smartphone content buyers said smartphone ads are similar to Internet ads, and 42 percent said they are hard to ignore. Among smartphone users who don't buy content, that number dropped to 28 percent. A higher percentage of content buyers also said smartphone ads motivate them to research or buy items - 25 percent compared to 14 percent of all smartphone users.
Content buyers are also twice as likely to take action after seeing an ad. According to the report, 79 percent of content buyers took an action after seeing a smartphone ad, compared to 39 percent of non-content buyers. Indeed, content buyers generated higher clickthrough rates than non-content buyers - 21 percent compared to 15 percent - both much higher than the average online display ad CTR.
"Content buyers perceive smartphone advertising more favorably than smartphone content consumers as a whole and are more likely to take action after seeing smartphone ads," notes the OPA report.
In the past year, 24 percent of smartphone users have purchased content on their devices. Of the smartphone apps downloaded, 14 percent were reported as being paid apps.
The OPA report, conducted in partnership with Frank N. Magid Associates, also provided some interesting data points about iPhone and Android users. The numbers show that 70 percent of iPhone content consumers have bought apps in the past year, compared to 34 percent of those using Android devices. The report also shows that iPhone content consumers spend more on apps than those using Android. The report also indicated that iPhone content consumers have a more positive perception of smartphone advertising than those on Android and are more likely to take action after seeing a smartphone ad.

Fender Pawn Shop Special Excelsior 13W 1x15 Tube Guitar Combo Amp . with tone mod
The Fender Pawn Shop Special Excelsior 13W 1x15 model is undoubtedly one of the most distinctive tube combo amps in Fender history. Its brown textured vinyl covering, smartly stylish "E" grille design and bold crossed-swords front-panel badge convey a decidedly stately vibe with a marked air of cold war cool. To say nothing of its admirable tone and power. The 13-watt Excelsior elegantly encloses a single 15" speaker, with a bottom-loaded primary chassis and top-loaded control chassis for operating convenience and low noise (powered by two 6V6 output tubes and two 12AX7 preamp tubes). Distinctive features include Instrument, Microphone and Accordion inputs that each have individually optimized circuitry; tremolo circuit with speed control, bright/dark tone switch (for treble or bass emphasis) was removed and replaced with a tone potentiometer (knob) for better dialing in of tone, volume control and 1/4" internal speaker disconnect that lets the amp drive an external speaker enclosure. The Excelsior is perfect for playing at home, smaller gigs and studio sessions. Bring a fresh and unconventional new vibe to your playing.
Amplifier was purchased 1 month ago and was professionally moded. No issues. Perfect.

Hi, Pete Carroll. Nice of you to make an appearance. Yes, that is a camera. Oh, you're—okay, bye! » 3/24/15 3:48pm 3/24/15 3:48pm
Bill Simmons joined Snoop Dogg as a special guest on tonight's WWE Raw, and if that sounds like the dumbest thing in the world to you, you'd be right. Simmons didn't even take a bump, which is some weak bullshit. Even worse, it appears Simmons may have broken kayfabe by inquiring about the of-late absence of "the… » 3/23/15 9:59pm 3/23/15 9:59pm
On his radio show today, butt-faced shitbag Colin Cowherd dropped the dog whistle for once while yakking his way through a segment in which he seeded all of the states in order of how much he likes them. Cowherd really, really likes Oregon. Can you guess why? (It's partly because there are a lot of white people in… » 3/20/15 11:34am 3/20/15 11:34am
At SXSW, Bill Simmons gave a legitimately interesting interview to Re/code. It features Simmons sliding from passive-aggression to bluntness, but always railing against his ESPN bosses for not giving Grantland the funding or credit he believes it deserves. » 3/16/15 2:31pm 3/16/15 2:31pm

So Bill Simmons offered a "sneak" preview today of the third part of his NBA Trade Value column. And yes, his self-mythologizing has gotten to the point where he a) breaks some random-ass rankings into three parts, b) releases a "sneak preview" of the third part of those rankings because "we couldn't resist" (and by… » 3/13/15 4:34pm 3/13/15 4:34pm
Keith Olbermann is a guest on the Late Show with David Letterman tonight, and part of their taped conversation has already been uploaded onto YouTube by the show. In it, Olbermann and Letterman discuss the the dumbass Twitter fight he got into with Penn State fans and students that led ESPN to suspend him from his… » 3/10/15 11:44pm 3/10/15 11:44pm
Take a deep breath. Twitter: this means you. Turn off the Tebow Siren. » 3/09/15 5:15pm 3/09/15 5:15pm
Listen. First Take is a trashy, cynical show that exists so that Stephen A. Smith and Skip Bayless, two of the widest talking sphincters in sports punditry, can take turns spouting fake and bad shit to the masses. Most of the time, it's so disingenuous that it's depressing, but sometimes, one of these two fellas comes… » 3/09/15 12:45pm 3/09/15 12:45pm
ESPN/ABC ran this graphic during today's Bulls-Spurs game in recognition of the NBA's Noche Latina campaign, and it raises an interesting question: does Pau Gasol belong on this list? » 3/08/15 3:16pm 3/08/15 3:16pm
Dick Vitale is missing yet another UNC-Duke game tonight, having been dispatched to Louisville for tonight's battle between Virginia and the Cardinals. And Dickie V used his podium to launch into a strenuous defense of Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim, declaring the Orange skipper "not a cheater." » 3/07/15 8:26pm 3/07/15 8:26pm

As Jigga's Law states, for every "Ether" there is an equal and opposite "Super Ugly" as the offended party seeks to redress their injuries in diss form. And while Iggy Azalea herself has henceforth been quiet about the smackdown ESPN's Robert Flores laid on her today, her boyfriend Nick Young has come out swinging. » 3/02/15 2:06pm 3/02/15 2:06pm
Bruh. BRUH. They don't make lava as hot as my man Robert Flores's diss right there. Like, generations of Azaleas' souls will be burning from this one. » 3/02/15 10:16am 3/02/15 10:16am
Kimbo Slice—yes, that Kimbo Slice—and Ken Shamrock announced a fight this week on a June 20 Bellator card, so Slice made an appearance on Highly Questionable. When Papi asked for Slice's romantic side, the fighter pretended to take off his pants. That must have been a fun few seconds for Dan Le Batard's producers. » 2/27/15 5:37pm 2/27/15 5:37pm
Hey, here's a fun little story. Remember last week when Fox Sports's Katie Nolan went on the BS Report, and she and Bill Simmons kinda coyly reminisced about a failed attempt at bringing her over to Grantland, in the way that people talk about these things on the BS Report, where they don't actually say anything,… » 2/25/15 3:30pm 2/25/15 3:30pm
