China: Let thin clients bloom for Olympics
July 26, 2005
The systems architecture for Beijing 2008 was finalized last month by Atos Origin, the main IT supplier for the games. And all the facilities--a PC factory, data center, integration lab and technology operation center--are now operational.
An IT team of around 3,500 people, which includes 2,500 volunteers, will be responsible for 10,000 PCs, 1,000 servers, a games information system and an information diffusion system across seven cities.
"You have one chance to get it right. There is no second chance," said Guillaume Huard, sales and marketing director for the Olympics and major events at Atos Origin. "Testing is a big component. You don't want to affect the competition in any way. The testing is intense and takes more than a year."
The testing will include a run-through of 500 possible worst-case scenarios, rehearsing every situation that could go wrong, including virus infections and cables being cut, but Huard said the biggest threat is still an internal one.
"We have had people trying to print their own accreditation badges," he said, "or trying to find their way around the network when they shouldn't."
To minimize risks, all the Olympic volunteers--IT and non-IT--go through rigorous police background checks. In Beijing there will be a total of 70,000 volunteers, filtered down from around 5 million applications.
The reliability required for the Olympic Games is so high that there is little new or cutting-edge technology used.
"You have to freeze your solution quite a long time before the event," Huard said. "We are not going for cutting-edge and bleeding-edge technology. It has to be mature, proven, tested technology."
There are currently 100 IT staff members in Beijing, three-fourths of whom are Chinese. Testing begins this month for IT supporting 12 Olympics events in 11 different venues. Work on the IT infrastructure for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics is also already under way, and work on the London 2012 IT systems will begin after Beijing, in November 2008.
Andy McCue of Silicon.com reported from London.

- Will they ever learn?
- I wonder whether all of the participants and visitors to the Olympics will have FULL 100% access to the internet or whether they'll be limited to the filtered list of sites which they allow their own Chinese peoples?
Likewise, anybody going to the China Olympics, be carefull NOT to use any unencrypted E-mail sites as China will be watching you and all of your unencrypted usernames and passwords which you pass through their network system.
Thus only SSL, VPN and/or other encrypted comms are recommended unless you don't mind divulging your username and password to the Chinese government... they WILL be watching! Regardless of whether they filter/block or not!

You may want to consider just how much the US government is ALREADY spying on you.
The US Government has more money to throw around than the Chinese would ever think about spending on spying activities. When all your traffic is routed through Carnivore (or its latest incarnation), you have a whole lot more to fear from the US government -- you can be sure.

Living an American dream
Aweyso Aweyso knew no English when he moved here from Kenya, now he's a straight-A student
Q: How long have you been playing soccer?
A: I started six years ago when I met my third grade teacher, Ms. Beech. But who really inspired me to play was my cousin because ever since I started playing with him, I started liking it.
Q: Why do you love the sport so much?
A: Because it's a talent I never knew I had. Playing for the Matrix (an AYSO) team, the parents and families of the team treat me like family. When I'm upset and having problems, I go play soccer.
Q: What do you want to be when you grow up?
A: A professional soccer player because I want to help my mom and dad out with money. If I have a big house, I'm going to make sure they live with me. I would also like to help homeless people in the streets and show that I care.
Q: Where is your favorite place in San Diego?
A: I really don't know that because I don't know San Diego very well. We travel around San Diego for my club soccer team, but we don't stay in those places. I think the houses in La Mesa are nice, and even though I'm not a kid, I still like Chuck E. Cheese's.

The Warriors put up a fight for most of the game but the San Antonio Spurs were able to get another home win (15 straight home wins), 95-88. Tony Parker finished with 25 points and 8 assists including this nifty "and 1" on Golden State in the third quarter.

At McKay-Dee Dermatology and Plastic Surgery, a chemical peel can be used to touch up uneven skin pigmentation, acne, rough skin, scaling, scarring, and age spots.
Chemical peels are typically performed for cosmetic reasons. However, they may also be used in order to remove pre-cancerous skin growths, soften acne scars and even control acne.
During your free consultation, we will recommend the most appropriate chemical peel for your skin type and the damage you would like to repair. A chemical peel can range in intensity from light, medium, or deep. A light chemical peel focuses on the surface of the skin and may need to be repeated after several weeks. In contrast, a deep chemical peel reaches deep into the layers of the skin and results will last longer.
Also known as a chemexfoliation, a chemical peel is less invasive than many other skin enhancement procedures. When you arrive for your procedure, your face will be cleaned. Depending on the chemical peel chosen for your skin type, a numbing cream may be applied first. A chemical solution is then applied to the face. The solution is left for several minutes. During this time, you may feel burning and tingling sensations. The chemical solution is then removed. Depending on your treatment plan, you may have red or brown skin after the chemical peel. This is temporary and will peel off within 1-2 weeks to reveal a fresh and more youthful layer of skin.

Open-Source Installer Press ReleaseOctober 11th, 1999 by Marv
Loki Entertainment has issued a press release concerning the newly open source installer, Setup:
TUSTIN, CA — October 11, 1999 — Loki Entertainment Software, the premier company bringing best-selling PC and Macintosh games to the Linux? environment, today releases their fourth Open-Source project, the Loki Game Installer [Setup 1.0].
Setup 1.0 is an graphic installer utitilty with which a developer can create a simple, easy-to-use standardized install routine.

The install process even creates an uninstall script in the install directory which can be run when the user wants to uninstall the product. Loki has included x86, PPC, Alpha, and Sparc binaries for this version of the installer.
Loki developed Setup 1.0 in the course of porting Railroad Tycoon II: Gold Edition? by PopTop Software and Gathering of Developers. While Loki is contractually bound to protect the publisher¹s original game code, Loki shares any improvements to the underlying Linux software code with the Open Source community.
"One of the things we frequently hear is that people would like a simpler way to install applications on their Linux-based systems. We originally developed our GUI installer in the course of porting Civilization: Call to Power by Activision, and have since modified and enhanced it. We¹re now very pleased to release back to the community the results of our efforts. Setup 1.0 is a full-featured, graphical installer for games and other consumer applications," said Sam Lantinga, lead programmer at Loki and the co-author of Setup 1.0.

just a small town girl living in a lonely world
Hi! Friends have described me as a mixture of Jess from "New Girl" and Phoebe from "Friends". If I am not laughing and probably cracking some quirky ironic joke about ugly socks, something is most definitely wrong with my evening. When the laughs die down, I do occasionally descend into seriousness and plug away as a business analyst. While I hope that someday I'll have a wardrobe like Jess and Phoebe's ability to play guitar, for the time being I'm just a 20-something girl living in Ballard with a tendency to sing in the shower. (Loudly. Like really loudly.) Either way, I hope to use this as a chance to meet some awesome people and explore the PNW! Extra points if you're a guy who can hold his own in conversations about current events, makes me laugh from crying so hard, or likes to kick a soccer ball.

By: Chris Kramer
A previous story detailed a man who suppressed his breathalyzer results when authorities could not meet his request for a blood test within an allocated time period. With that said, a proposed Colorado DUI law would close the loophole in the state's express consent law which certainly aided this man and ultimately give the state more flexibility to gather evidence from drunken driving suspects.
Under the current express consent DUI law in Colorado, a DUI suspect can choose either a blood test or a breathalyzer test. If the chosen test is not administered within two hours after the arrest, the state does not have enough evidence for a DUI conviction.
This loophole was especially apparent in the aforementioned case involving Glenn Turbyne, who was stopped on suspicion of drunk driving in April 2005. Rather than agreeing to a breathalyzer test, Turbyne asked for a blood test, which was not attained within the two hour time limit due to inclement weather and a heavy workload for paramedics.
What made this case even more interesting is that Turbyne later agreed to a breathalyzer test after the arresting officer told him that he could lose his driver's license upon refusing the breath test. Turbyne flunked the breathalyzer test, registering a blood alcohol content (BAC) level that was nearly two times the legal 0.08 percent limit as stipulated in the DUI laws in Colorado.
Turbyne's Colorado DUI lawyer then argued that the BAC result should not be submitted as evidence since it was coerced out his client. The Colorado Supreme Court agreed, saying that the BAC result could not be submitted as evidence because the officer had inadvertently threatened Turbyne by warning him about possibly having his license revoked. Turbyne was thus able to escape his Colorado DUI charges.
Proposed Colorado DUI Law Would Seek Different Results in Similar Cases!
With similar cases in mind, Representative Jim Riesberg said in a cbs4denver.com story that this proposed Colorado DUI law would close the loophole allowing drunk drivers to escape justice. He added how this proposed Colorado DUI law strives to reduce repeat offenders and give law enforcement more ability to take these cases to court.
So what would this proposed DUI law in Colorado do to better achieve these goals? Specifically, this DUI law in Colorado would still give the driver the choice of either a blood or breathalyzer test. However, if the preferred test can not be administered due to unforeseen circumstances, this proposed Colorado DUI law would now give authorities the right to administer the other test.
In relation to the Turbyne case, this proposed Colorado DUI law would have required this suspect to submit a breath test once the blood test could not be administered within the two hour time period due to the inclement weather and other unforeseen circumstances (assuming of course, that Turbyne was not inadvertently convinced to submit the breath test to begin with).
Stay Updated on the Latest Developments with this Proposed Colorado DUI Law!
This proposed Colorado DUI law, Senate Bill 154, passed the House on a 51-14 vote on March 28 th. It is now awaiting a signature from Colorado Governor Bill Ritter.

The 232Th(p,xn) and 232Th(p,np) cross sections for incident proton energies in the range of 10 to 1600 MeV have been calculated by using a cascade-exiton model (CEM) combining essential features of the exciton model and intranuclear cascade models. The level density parameter effects are investigated. The calculation results are compared with the available measured data.

Lesson 1
Objective: Knowing more about Muriel Spark, the author of "Her Public Image," will enrich our reading, because she is a most interesting and accomplished woman. She has an unusual background and her resume defies any set pattern of work. This might upset a head hunter, but as readers, it will just make us wonder more about the story line and the characters. The objective of this lesson is try to match her background with the characters she creates.
1) Class discussion:
Discuss the background of Muriel Spark. Try to relate what she has done to what she writes. What sort of person does she seem to be? Remember that stories often come from life experience. She seems to be a strong woman. If you agree, how do you think that quality will affect her characters? Dig into her accomplishments and try to create a three dimensional image. Let...

Ben-Hur (1959)
Learn more about Ben-Hur:
|A jewish nobleman in palestine is drawn into a heroic odyssey that includes enslavement by the romans, a bold escape from an embattled slave gallery, vengeance against his tormentors during a furious arena chariot and fateful encounters with jesus christ.
"A biblical epic on a scale even the Caesars could appreciate... Find-A-Video
Editor's NoteAnno Domini: the seventh year of Augustus Caesar's reign. In the Roman province of Judea, Jews return to the city of their birth for the census. A bright star in the night over Bethlehem marks the birth of Jesus Christ. Years later, Roman commander Messala (Stephen Boyd), who was brought up in Judea, takes command of the Roman garrison in Jerusalem. His Jewish boyhood friend Judah Ben-Hur (Charlton Heston) greets him. Messala is delighted. But when Judah refuses to name Jewish patriots, Messala sentences him to the slave galleys and imprisons his mother, Miriam (Martha Scott), and sister, Tirzah (Cathy O'Donnell). Judah vows revenge.In BEN-HUR, William Wyler's much-lauded epic, the story of Judah's search for his mother and sister and his quest for revenge intersects with crucial biblical events such as the Sermon on the Mount and the crucifixion. Wyler gets fine performances from Heston, Boyd, Jack Hawkins (as a Roman admiral who befriends Judah), and Hugh Griffith (as an Arab sheik who dreams of racing his beautiful white horses against Messala). Among BEN-HUR's vivid dramatic sequences are a violent sea battle and the famous chariot race that pits Judah against Messala in one of cinema's great action sequences.

Professional Reviews
Customer Reviews of Ben-Hur
An Epic for the Ages11/1/2004
Ben Hur is an example of the best the old Hollywood system could create when it put its mind to it. It is, in the end, a story of revenge, but Ben Hur has a gravitas that the shoot em up revenge movies of today totally lack. Made 45 years ago, it has aged well. The action sequences were all done live, and it is still amazing that they could have been filmed at all. You MUST buy this in the wide screen edition, the pan and scan does not do the movie justice. Ben Hur has all the hallmarks of a well done epic: Grand music that fits the scenes, Dialogue that does not sound trite, A commanding lead actor - Charlton Heston, and a scene (the chariot race) that will never be forgotten once you have seen it. The entire movie, all 3 1/2 hours of it will fly by as you are enveloped in the multi layered story that is thoughtfully presented. I think it stands with the best films ever made.

How long are these talks? Perhaps make a short film version of these talks
as an incentive to visit Lugod and buy the rest? Also might be ok on the

File -Caretaker Interior Minister Marwan Charbel is seen in Beirut, Monday, Sept. 23, 2013. (The Daily Star/Hasan Shaaban)
BEIRUT: Caretaker Interior Minister Marwan Charbel chaired a meeting of top security officials Tuesday in an effort to draw up a security plan for Tripoli after Hezbollah turned over its checkpoints to the Army and national security forces.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Charbel said he was hopeful a deal for securing Tripoli would be reached soon. In past statements to the press, Charbel has said that the fractured political landscape of Tripoli presented serious political and logistical problems to the deployment of national security forces.
"The security plan for Tripoli consists of two parts," the Interior Minister explained.
"The first is for the Lebanese Army to separate the warring sides in Bab al-Tabbaneh and Jabal Mohsen, and the second is concerned with protecting Tripoli [from threats other than] traditional struggles after it was targeted by two car bombs," he said, referring to last month's deadly twin bombings outside the city's Al-Salameh and Al-Taqwa mosques.
Earlier, Charbel hailed the success of the security plan to transfer security in areas controlled by Hezbollah from the party to the state.
"There are no more Hezbollah checkpoints on Lebanese territory," he triumphantly announced just before the meeting.
"I was informed of Hezbollah's decision to abandon checkpoints in Nabatieh and this indeed took place [Tuesday] where security has become the responsibility of the security forces," Charbel said.
Hezbollah handed over checkpoints in Beirut's southern suburbs, the southern city of Nabatieh and the northern city of Baalbek to the Lebanese Army and security forces after coming under fire for implementing "self-security." Hezbollah claims it stepped in to fill a security void by erecting checkpoints after the southern suburbs were targeted by two car bombs within two months.
Charbel has conceded in previous statements to the press that the state was unable to fulfill its duties, but Tuesday lauded the security plan implemented in Beirut's southern suburbs, saying it is "getting better every day."
Charbel also talked about the role of municipalities in preventing construction violations, urging mayors to call in the national police only as a last resort.
"We asked the Internal Security Forces not to get involved in the issue of constructions violations ... because the mayor, the governor and qaimaqam are responsible for handling such violations," Charbel said.
"The mayor can ask for backup of security forces to remove a certain violation but [the mayor] is the one responsible for identifying illegal constructions in his town or village," the minister said.
Charbel added that dealing with construction violations was taking up valuable police time, a situation that had prompted him to end the security forces' involvement in the removal of illegal constructions except when expressly requested to do so.
He stressed, however, that dealing with construction violations on state property was the responsibility of the police alone.
The Internal Security Forces has continuously struggled to halt illegal constructions in the country, with some members of the force having suffered injuries during operations to confront violators. The penalty for illegal constructions usually entails a halt to the work at the construction site and the confiscation of machinery.
In separate remarks to An-Nahar, Charbel dismissed reports that Hezbollah had set up checkpoints around the Palestinian refugee camp of Burj al-Barajneh in Beirut's southern suburbs.
"Only security forces' checkpoints are around the camp," he emphasized to the paper.

Alexander Wang Rumored to Head Balenciaga
The New York Times reported that Alexander Wang is the leading candidate to succeed the star designer Nicolas Ghesquiere in the latest Balenciaga drama. An announcement could be made as early as next week.
There has been growing speculation that Wang would be chosen for Balenciaga but and his spokeswoman could not be reached.
After thoroughly modernizing Balenciaga, Ghesquiere announced his departure two weeks ago. After 15 years at the design house, Ghesquiere wants to spread his wings and go after new challenges.
If Mr. Wang is the choice for Balenciaga, he will bring a different perspective, certainly a strong urban sensibility. Although he likes to experiment on his New York runway, he is perhaps best known for his easy interpretations of street and athletic clothes, like sports jerseys, parkas and, of course, jeans and T-shirts. He sells his line in contemporary sections of stores like Bergdorf Goodman and Barneys, as well as in his own boutique in SoHo. He also has manufacturing connections in China.
Wang, known for his urban sensibility, would bring a youthful vibe to Balenciaga and lead the brand in a new direction.

PHILADELPHIA—The National Renal Administrators Association (NRAA) has partnered with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Phase III CROWNWeb demonstration pilot using an innovative Health Information Exchange (HIE) approach.
"This innovative pilot is very important to small and mid-sized dialysis providers, and our success with the HIE will have significant influence on how CMS pursues the national rollout of CROWNWeb," said Marc Chow, MS, NRAA executive director. "We're looking forward to working with CMS to help find a solution that assists providers in continuing to leverage health care technologies."
Six dialysis facilities using three EMR suppliers -- Health Informatics International, Clinical Computing and Satellite Health -- will submit patient specific clinical data to be inspected for quality by CMS at the conclusion of the pilot.
Three of the largest organizations in the industry -- DaVita, Fresenius, and Dialysis Clinic Inc. -- are currently able to submit the data in batches via an electronic connection with CMS. Since there is not a similar option for small and medium sized facilities, NRAA and CMS began to explore using a Health Information Exchange to better automate the data collection for these groups. When the NRAA HIE was developed, CMS decided to include this innovative submission method as part of its current Phase III national demonstration project.
The NRAA HIE securely collects the CROWNWeb data out of from the facilities' EMR and submits it through the Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN). This is one of the few times CMS has given a class of providers access through NwHIN.
"We are excited about this cost effective method of submitting data to CROWNWeb," said Chow. "We think the NRAA HIE will help many small dialysis centers to submit data more easily."
About NRAA
NRAA is a voluntary organization representing independent, regional and community-based dialysis providers throughout the United States. NRAA members are primarily small- and medium-sized dialysis organizations that serve thousands of patients in urban, rural and suburban areas in both freestanding and hospital-based facilities.

Former PGA golfer Steve Thomas was among 40 men arrested during "Operation Red Cheeks," a week-long undercover sting by the Osceola County (Fla.) Sheriff's Office last week aimed at capturing adults soliciting sex with minors through the Internet.
Thomas, 55, has played in 78 tournaments on the PGA and Champions tours, finishing in the top 10 three times. His most recent tournament appearance was in 2010.
As part of the operation, which apparently followed the mold of a "To Catch a Predator" Dateline special, suspects chatted with undercover detectives posing as children, parents or guardians in online chat rooms and were invited to meet at a disclosed location where the suspects expected to engage in sex with minors. Often times suspects voluntarily sent graphic photos of a sexual nature, according to the Sheriff's Office.
Via the Orlando Sentinel, here are the shocking, "C'mon Man!" details of Thomas' arrest:
His arrest affidavit states Thomas thought he was chatting with a woman about sex with her 13-year-old daughter. He agreed to meet the teen for sex, deputies say, and sent photos of himself golfing.
Investigators searched Thomas' sport utility vehicle after his arrest, the affidavit states, finding three condoms, two packages of chocolate pudding and a bottle of honey. Deputies say he confessed.
Condoms? Chocolate? Honey? Chris Hansen is furious he wasn't able to be there with a camera crew.
[via Deadspin]
Mountainman, u got some guff, to talk about kris hanson, exposing all the perverts on dateline, the man should be giving the medal of honor and or a purple heart for bravery.

Writing on ways of preventing power failures that plunged the north-eastern US and Ontario into darkness last month, Jeff Hecht says: "A more promising technology, under test, will allow power companies to remotely switch off some heavy loads for short intervals," (23 August, p 7).
There cannot be much need for testing. Many domestic customers in Switzerland have been subjected to just this technology for many years. The electricity supplier uses a remote-control box, fitted next to the meter, to switch circuits in and out whether the householder likes it or not. In practice, this does not cause much of a problem: it only means that circuits supplying appliances such as water heaters and washing machines are switched off during meal-cooking times.

analysisBy Adam Robert Green
While Africa grows at unprecendented rates, its kingpin economy falls to an historic low.
Whilst the ANC came to power promising so much, including nationalisation of valuable public assets, and access to housing, education and water, the post-apartheid government quickly changed tack. Realising the dire state of the government's finances, the new government sought to encourage investment and business to kick-start growth. But in so doing, they made a series of promises which would come to constrain their ability to pursue public policy.
Firstly, they signed dozens of bilateral investment treaties - which give businesses assurances their investments will be protected. When the government tried to impose its Black Economic Empowerment programme, they were sued by mining companies for contravening their agreements by diluting the company's investments. Tax breaks have been handed out to many, along with cheap access to energy. But such boons are hard to roll back. The National Planning Commission, headed by Trevor Manuel, recently published an in-depth analysis of the country's shortcomings to date, especially in areas of education.
The current industrial unrest has taken many by surprise. But the grievances have been simmering for some time. Beginning in August with strikes at a Lonmin platinum mine, by mid-October the unrest has seen nearly 100,000 workers participate in industrial action over pay. What started in the platinum sector soon spread to gold, with AngloGold Ashanti and Gold Fields, Africa's two top bullion producers, suffering a 48,000-strong walkout. By October, it had spread to the manufacturing sector, notably a Toyota plant. Scores have been killed, notably in the shootings at Lonmin in which 34 miners died.
Companies have varied in their response. Lonmin agreed wage rises of up to 22 percent after six weeks of action and Toyota raised hourly wages by 5.7 percent. Both have been criticised by some commentators for setting precedents that could have far-reaching implications in incentivising illegal strikes elsewhere. Less accommodating were AmPlats, which sacked 12,000 illegally striking workers in early October.
The action has hit mining companies hard, costing AngloGold 32,000 ounces of gold production each week, while Gold Fields is losing 2,300 ounces a day. Investment into South Africa is down. In early October, Moody's downgraded South Africa's debt rating from A3 to Baa1, citing a deterioration in the country's institutional efficacy.
The disputes are having global repercussions. South Africa is home to four-fifths of the world's known platinum reserves, and Lonmin's South Africa operations alone account for 12 percent of global platinum output. The price of platinum has risen more than 20 percent since the August shootings. According to government estimates, gold and platinum production worth 4.5 billion rand may have been lost to strikes so far.
But it is not clear what the government can do in the near term, either to stimulate growth or encourage constructive dialogue between companies and unions. Four years of fiscal stimulus action to offset the effects of the global recessions has left the state with little wriggle room, leaving only interest-rate cuts as the option for kick-starting the economy, and tax breaks have already been handed out with abandon, as one of the government's favoured measures for encouraging investment.

This review is for the 84" version, item #60397. I bolted the two ramps together to load a 750lb motorcycle. There was some flexing and dipping but overall the ramps felt solid enough. I do not think that I would want to go over 800lbs or so on these.

I bought these ramps to load my Suzuki King Quad 700. This atv only weighs 700 pounds. So I thought 1000lbs ramps would work fine. I was WRONG. These ramps are horrible. The bracket that you mount so that they can lay on your bed of your truck is POORLY designed. I used mine 2 times and the ramps are bending inwards where the mounts are. Thats not even the best part. I try to take them back to harbor freight to JUST get store credit so i can buy a nicer set of ramps and they wont return them at all even though these things say they have a 90 day warranty which obviously does not apply. DO NOT BUY THESE RAMPS. you will be highly disappointed. Just buy the more durable ones and i promise you wont be as disappointed as i am. Im never buying from harbor freight again because they do not honor their 90 day warrant or their 100% satisfaction guaranteed.

Great ramps
By Beam & Coke
from Detroit Michigan
These ramps work great on my trailer.The ramps mounted very easily with 2, 3/4 inch by 6.5 inch long bolts.If they would have been a little thicker gauge steel I would have given them 5 star but they still are a great buy.

Good enough so far
By Tj dude
from Baja California
I used this to load my ATV on to my truck. I drove my Honda TRX350 (plus the driver's weight) up the ramp with almost no trouble. In total I would say around 750lbs (I'm a heavy guy :P). I've only used a couple of times in reality, but I did not notice any bending or twisting on the ramps, it does feel like they are strong anough for the wight I was putting in to them.To be honest I do feel that the metal tongues that hold the ramp on to the tailgate are a bit flimsy. I feel this is the weakest point on the ramps, but so far they are still on good condition.
Not 1000lbs
By Kevin
from Central New Your
The price is great, length is good (much better than the 72" ramps). Big problem is these things can't handle the weight claimed. You may as well put them in the scrape pile. I don't know why HF doesn't just charge an extra $10.00 and invest in a better product. Four wheelers are what I think most people buy these ramps for. Don't do it until HF changes quality.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

By angry bird
from myrtle beach, sc
i used these ramps to load my 350 quad. they worked great. while loading back onto my truck the ramp folded about 18 inches from the bottom. i know what you are thinking and yes i was on level ground. now i am alone with my atv in the middle of nowhere. i back tracked, found a hill walked back to the truck and loaded. stuff happens right? i take the ramps back in the morning and harbor freight wouldnt even look at them. i was told that they dont replace those. very disapointed in the store and the bacing of their "awesome" product. should have just made them myself in the first place

You Can Watch Innovation--Our Last InFormation Year Event. Here's how . . .
Today we will be hosting our last event in the InFormation Year at CalIT2 in La Jolla at 3:00 p.m. Pacific Time (6:00 p.m. Eastern Time). It will be webcast and you can watch by following the links at the bottom of this blog posting. There will be three demonstration-lectures by digital humanists, from virtual archeology to GIS. Then three of us (myself, CALIT2 director Larry Smarr, and media theorist Lev Manovich) will talk about the demos and about innovaiton in new media.
My focus will be on what it means to be in the third phase of an epistemic technological revolution. The first phase is always hyperbolic (utopic or dystopic). The second phase is caution and confusion because half of what you predicted didn't come through and a lot of consequences one never foresaw did. And then phase three is such a simple acceptance of the technological change as part of the fabric and expectation of everyday life that one no longer sees the social and cultural ramifications of that change. I'm convinced we are already there. For kids, especially, constant surveillance, for example, is a condition of everyday life. So is ADHD (and its regimes of treatment and control). Our institutions have not adjusted to the changes (except for the Patriot Act which has adjusted and adjusted us). We need humanists now to grasp the magnitude and historicize it, analyze it, explain what is disappearing as a phenomenon before our eyes. We have to un-naturalize this naturalization of technology.
The URL for the live webcast will be: http://rpvss.ucsd.edu:8080/ramgen/broadcast/live.rm
Below is the full program and th webcast info. See you at 3. Right now, I'm going out to look at the whales off the beach in La jolla!

The Lehigh Cement Co. will begin a series of tests next month using dried sewage pellets from two Baltimore treatment plants to replace some of the coal burned by Lehigh's state-of-the-art kiln near Union Bridge.
It will be the first such use in North America, said plant manager Peter Lukas. Lehigh's parent corporation, Heidelberger Zement, and other cement makers have been using sludge pellets for about 20 years in Europe, he said, where the cost of other fuels, such as coal, was high.

WATCH: CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta Talks to Riki Ott: Oil Spill Cleanup Crews Feeling Sick
Posted By dpacheco On June 4, 2010 @ 10:33 am In Science, Nature & Environment | No Comments
CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta talks to a sick Gulf Coast oil spill cleanup worker and gets expert opinion from Exxon Valdez oil spill veteran Riki Ott [1] (Not One Drop: Betrayal and Courage in the Wake of the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill) in this clip from Anderson Cooper 360.
In her book, Riki Ott, a rare combination of commercial salmon "fisherm'am" and PhD marine biologist, describes firsthand the impacts of oil companies' broken promises when the Exxon Valdez spills most of its cargo and despoils thousands of miles of shore. Ott illustrates in stirring fashion the oil industry's 20-year trail of pollution and deception that predated the tragic 1989 spill and delves deep into the disruption to the fishing community of Cordova over the following 19 years. In vivid detail, she describes the human trauma coupled inextricably with that of the sound's wildlife and its long road to recovery.

Dennis Ross emphatically denied any indication that he no longer supported President Obama.
"The idea of trying to get a sense that there is a split with the president is completely untrue," Ross, Obama's former top Iran adviser, told JTA on Tuesday.
Ross repeated comments he made to the Daily Beast/Newsweek over the weekend, in which he said that his position as a counselor to the Washington Institute for Near East Policy—an educational nonprofit subject to tax exemptions—keeps him from directly advising campaigns.
Additionally, Ross said, he has not accumulated enough leave since returning to the Washington Institute after he left government last December to take an absence and work for the Obama campaign, as he did in 2008, when he was a leading outreach official to the pro-Israel community.
The Daily Beast story in its headline cast Ross' statement as a "split" between the Obama administration and a "key ally."
Dismissing that notion, Ross said he was still advising the White House on policy.
"I'm asked to give my advice from time to time, and I give it," he said, adding that when he speaks in public, "I'm supportive of the president."
Ross blasted pro-Israel analysts who cast his position as a "split" as an attempt to make Israel a partisan issue.
"The one thing Israel cannot be or should not be is a partisan issue," he said. "Anyone who wants to turn it into a partisan issue is not helping Israel."

Skyrim craft mod, just like the name suggest, allows you to feel closer to play the popular game, Skyrim, in the world of Minecraft. The mod has done a great job in creating an environment that could be called the closest to the actual game. With all the additional weapons, awesome graphics, and other additional features rich with Skyrim theme, this Skyrim craft mod will soon become popular between the Minecrafters.
Skyrim craft Mod Minecraft 1.2.5- Extra Weapon and Item
Inside the skyrim craft mod, there are a lot of changes it brings to the Minecraft world. First it will enhance the graphic up a notch, and giving the feel of wonderful Skyrim's setting. Other than the visualization, there are also new weapons and items available for you to use. There are also six additional mobs included in the package. Those including giants, frost bite spiders, and even ancient dragon.
Skyrim craft Mod Minecraft 1.2.5 – How to Install It
The same method of installing another mod for Minecraft could be used to install skyrim craft mod. Although that it seemed to be a complex and hard to make mod, it is still just the same mod in installation progress. Just like another mod, first you need to download the mod. Just for your information, currently the latest version of the mod is Skyrim craft Mod for Minecraft 1.1. After that, download the ModLoader. For this, you need the latest version of the Mod or else, it would not work. Once you have got the mod and the latest version of ModLoader, the process is all the same.
Open the minecraft folder by typing %appdata% in the search bar. Once the result appears, open the minecraft folder. Drag both the ModLoader file and the downloaded Skyrim to the Minecraft.jar folder, and then the process is finished. When you run the Minecraft again, the skyrim craft mod will be on the go.

These two interpreters for the deaf say their relationship began with their first date, a low-key picnic held indoors because of the August heat.
Wedding Date: August 11, 2012
Amy's story: Amy Lanasa, 37, grew up in the Catonsville area, and now lives in Ednor Gardens. She is a freelance sign language interpreter and part-time staff member at Gallaudet University. Her father, Francis "Fran" Lanasa is a retired U.S. probation officer. Her mother, Barbara Lanasa, is a child care aide at Grace Church Child Care Center.
Claire's story: Claire Klossner, 37, grew up in Manassas, Virginia, and now lives in Ednor Gardens. She is a freelance sign language interpreter. Her father, William Klossner, is a magistrate in Prince William County, Virginia. Her mother, Elaine Klossner, is the office manager for an orthodontist in the Manassas area.
Their story: They met in July 2009.
"We were both working at Galludet [University] on the same day. She was leaving a job and I was coming onto the job in the Ole Jim building [also known as the Alumni House] on campus. We said hi to each other. But, I wasn't single at the time," says Amy.
"At the exact same event one year later, a student orientation at the end of July, we met the second time," says Claire.
"It was about a week later that I asked her out," says Amy. "I told her I would come and pick her up at her house. She was living in D.C. on Capitol Hill. I thought I would do a picnic on the Smithsonian Mall. She invited me in and we just sat and talked. It was hot. So, she asked if I wanted to have the picnic inside.".
"I had been freaking out that it was August and a 100 degrees that day," says Claire. "So, I planned to offer to have the picnic in my living room. "I found out later she had had actually gone on my Facebook page where I said I liked chocolate and spicy food. So, she had gotten chocolate for dessert, and spicy hummus and salsa for part of the picnic."
"I had gone through a year of not wanting to date because of not being in the right relationships," says Amy. "So, I was excited about going out on a date again...We ended up talking until 2 in the morning. The thing I most remember is that we laughed a lot and that she was down to earth and really into her career. One thing that's really nice is that we're both interpreters and we don't have to educate each other about what we do. I had a good sense that she had a good head on her shoulders. I definitely had a feeling that I really wanted to get to know her better."
The feeling was mutual.
"I felt like we clicked on the first date," says Claire. "It was so easy. We didn't have an awkward moment. She is so fun. She has the most outgoing, fun personality." .
Both of them say, in retrospect, the relationship began on that first date.
"About a month later, I [wondered] if I needed to ask her if she officially wanted to be my girlfriend," says Amy. " We were in a friend's kitchen and I asked her. She gave me big smile, yeah, and then she asked me if I would be her girlfriend.
"Claire's very generous and very understanding. She's got a funny personality and we make each other laugh. She's probably got the biggest heart of anyone you'll ever meet."
"Amy is the kind of person who would do anything for you," says Claire. "She is so warm and friendly. She loves to laugh and she loves to make other people laugh. And when she's laughing, she gets this spark in her eye. She really cares about people."
The proposal, October 16, 2011: "We would mention that it would be nice to be together forever," Amy says. "We started looking for rings and we found one place online that caters to gay and lesbian couples — loveandpride.com. We both really liked this one ring that's described as a wedding ring."
But, because of their profession, the couple was restricted with the type of ring each could wear.
"Because we're both interpreters, we can't wear anything really distracting," says Amy. "You don't want to go for anything big or distracting, jewelry-wise because people's eyes get fatigued when there's something like that. It's too busy. So, we picked out one that's steel and has about 10 little diamonds inset into the ring.".
Engaged: Amy Lanasa and Claire Klossner

Magical Pathworking: Techniques of Active Imagination, by Nick Farrell
Llewellyn Worldwide, 226 pp., 2004
If you can only order one occult book this year, then this it should be this book. Nick Farrell's writing is elegant and yet to the point. There are no typos in this book and the writing is at the level that any person could understand the concepts that he conveys in this book.
What I found most enjoyably were the techniques that Nick uses. The techniques are accessible and easily adapted to a person's own style of magick, so that if you're not inclined to use the Golden Dawn structure of magick you can stick with your own and still make use of these techniques.

After I'm done creating a page, do me a favor and bundle an install.txt file with each release. The install.txt should, at the minimum, have a link to the install/FAQ page that I'm going to create. The URL will be: http://green.sourceforge.net/install.html. After you've put everything in place to include the install.txt file, please close this request. I will post the link to it in the necessary tracker items and forum topics.
We need an installation (and installation FAQ page) to support Green; installation instructions need to be in everyone's face, as we're getting excessive requests for support with Green's installation.
The post here has some information on how to install Green: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1656906&forum_id=450184
The post here has some information on how to get started using Green: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1645613&forum_id=450184
Logged In: YES
Originator: YES
A prototype page is attached. Please review the document and make any necessary changes. The URLs should be relative to Green's home directory.
Also, don't forget to add an appropriate link the menu on each page.
File Added: install.html
1st Prototype of Install/FAQ Page
Logged In: NO
The "how to install" doesn't give me the slightest clue what to do with the zip file.
I see nothing on any the the Eclipse menus either.
Logged In: YES
Originator: YES
I guess it is a little unclear
From the page: "Simply unzip the archive. Move the contents of the plugin directory into the contents of your Eclipse directory."
You'll notice that your Eclipse installation has a structure like this:
-There's an "eclipse" directory
-Inside there, there's a "plugins" directory, among others.
1. Unzip the file.
2. Move the "plugins" directory (the one you unzipped) into your "eclipse" directory. This should add Green's plug-ins to Eclipse. You'll have to restart Eclipse.
If you were able to install GEF successfully, or any other plug-in, installing Green should be about the same. Make sure that you downloaded the plug-ins and not the source, and that you installed GEF properly.

They better be there. Sometimes I like to check things on another computer if mine isn't around. I also wish there was a way to check mobileme mail on another iphone or ipad without having to enter an account into the mail.app. It's for those times when you're phone dies, it's not around, etc.
Will iCloud keep the MobileMe web apps?
There's some debate as to whether or not Apple will keep the MobileMe web apps, like Mail, Contacts, and Calendars around after the transition to iCloud. Some have heard no, that Apple will trash them and go 100% apps. Others have heard yes, that Apple will keep them around.
No one outside Apple seems to know for sure. For our part, TiPb has heard there will indeed be web apps in iCloud. At the very least, you'll need a way to access Find my iPhone, Find my iPad, and the forthcoming Find my Mac over the web. Apple has also poured significant resources into the SproutCore-powered Mail, Contacts, and Calendars app -- including a major update to Calendars recently -- and it's hard to imagine them flushing all that effort.
Whether Photo Stream will take over for Photo Galleries, whether Documents in the Cloud will replace the wishy-washy iWork.com, and whether or not the App Store and iTunes store get Web-to-Device push remains unknown.
Even if the native iOS and Mac apps are used far more often, having the web apps as backup is a pretty important feature. We expect Apple to clarify before iOS 5 launches and iCloud comes out of beta this fall.

Will iCloud keep the MobileMe web apps?
It seems likely that the calendar would have CalDAV format support, much like Google Calendar currently does. If it did, it seems likely that the calendar could be imported to another calendar application - and potentially on another device like a BB or Android smartphone.
I just really care about the photo galleries. I like to do "photo blogs" when on vacation so my coworkers can vacation vicariously through my iphone updated photo gallery.
