Australians loathe Foster's lager, don't they? IIRC, there's absolutely nothing about it that's actually Australian, nor was there ever (the Aussie angle was just a marketing gimmick), and they hate it when tourists come down there expecting to order it.
My experience was that Foster's is their Budwesier. It's relatively cheap and sells a lot, but no one considers it to be "good beer". I remember drinking a lot of Victoria Bitter when I was there.
Remember, I was there a long time ago, so my experience may not be valid now.
That reminds of a joke I heard in Australia:
Why is American Beer like making love in a canoe?
Because it's fucking close to water!
There is a cult of ignorance in the United States...The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge'.

Another selected project will explore airborne microbial communities and their influences on the Earth's biogeochemical cycles. Kostas Konstantinidis from Georgia Tech and his colleagues are concentrating on airborne microbes in the upper trophosphere, a region that contains almost all the water vapor of the atmosphere. In particular, they are seeking to characterize the conditions enabling the survival of microbes in this layer and their roles in cloud formation and the water cycle. This linkage of microbial processes and climate change processes is a bold new direction for DOE JGI.
The DOE JGI Plant Flagship Genomes initiative is another area of emphasis for the 2014 CSP call. These are plants sequenced for their potential as feedstock crops for biofuel production or else as comparators that will assist in the interpretation of feedstock crop genomes and potentially lead to their improvement for purposes of biofuel development. Many of the six selected projects focus on the poplar (black cottonwood) treethe first tree ever sequencedand published by the DOE JGI in the journal Science back in 2006. For example, Jay Chen from Oak Ridge National Laboratory will investigate gene expression in poplar populations. The goal is to use the information to identify genetic elements and transcriptional networks involved in plant cell wall development to improve the development of poplar as a feedstock for cost-effective, sustainable biomass production and conversion into biofuels. Another project, from Jonathan Shaw of Duke University, will leverage the first moss genome sequenced Physcomitrella patens - and expand the moss/bryophyte knowledgebase

Cloud computing is here, and it's real. It is, as we hear more often these days, The Future of Computing. If you're not yet leveraging cloud computing to streamline IT operations, you soon will be, or you'll be left behind by your competition.
All of this, in the dizzyingly accelerated pace of IT evolution, is old news. The question facing most CIOs today is not "should I start using cloud computing?" but rather "which cloud provider should I choose?" There are now a number of public cloud providers to choose from, and the list is growing quickly. There are various criteria that one might consider. I urge you to consider two new criteria: history and the future.

text: I'll tell you the same thing I tell everyone with bad soil: The best way to have a good garden is to improve the soil with organic matter, compost, or well-rotted manure. The more organic matter you put into the soil, the more productivity you'll get out of it. Organic matter helps bind the sandy particles together so the soil will hold more water when it's dry, and drain more quickly when it's wet. If you can, add organic matter two or three times during the growing season. The more you add, the better. The sand might not be the only problem your friend has to overcome. The soil also could be especially alkaline or acidic. Do a soil test to determine the pH. The organic matter you add can help moderate extreme pH levels, but you may need other amendments that specifically deal with soil pH.

WALLA WALLA - Recreational boaters will be able to use locks past U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dams on the lower Snake and Columbia rivers almost any time during daylight hours this winter.
Corps officials said the change from scheduled locking times to on-request lockages occurs each summer and winter to accommodate changing volumes of river traffic. The on-request system will continue through May 14, 2011, and will only operate during daylight hours.
Commercial vessels will continue to have precedence over recreational vessels. Recreational vessels may be allowed to lock through with commercial vessels at the discretion of the lock operator.

It's only because Matt Kenseth entered the race as the points leader and Kurt Busch came in after having lost the year before by mere ticks of a stopwatch that Roush Racing's drivers weren't excited about their overall effort at Darlington Raceway.
After all, most other teams would be loving placing four drivers in the top 12 in Sunday's Carolina Dodge Dealers 400 -- especially given that the only Roush driver not among the top 12 was Kenseth, who still leads the points race despite spinning out and later being penalized en route to finishing 31st.
"It looked like it might be a lot better than that," team owner Jack Roush said.
And he's right. Busch was one of the fastest cars all day long. Jeff Burton and Greg Biffle showed fast cars early on. Mark Martin showed a rocket ship late. Of the four, Roush thought he might get one of them to Victory Lane.
"That's how competitive the Nextel Cup Series is," Busch said.
Busch entered the Darlington weekend coming off a 12th-place finish in Atlanta, where he also brought a sturdy horse but was unable to close the deal. On Sunday, he thought a top-five would make it easier for everyone to forget about any what-ifs from Atlanta. Instead, he finished sixth and left with another what if.
Still, the disappointment stems from knowledge that the team could have been better, and from a confidence Busch has in his crew chief and crew that his No. 97 Ford is going to be stout every Sunday.
"The crew was able to give me great pit stops and with the way the engine ran all day it's tough to come away with a sixth, but it's a great step in the right direction," he said. "After the past few weeks we just weren't a top-five car. Today we were a top-five car and that's just due to (crew chief) Jimmy Fennig stepping up and saying we're gonna go this route with our setup. It makes it a little bit tougher to drive, but I've got to adjust to it."
Early in the day, Biffle was sure he would come away with a top-five. In fact, at one point he looked like he could actually win the race if he could stay out of trouble. But trouble was around the corner -- between Turns 1 and 2, to be exact. After pounding the wall his car got ornery and he was struggling to keep on the lead lap that No. 16 Ford he earlier thought was capable of a top finish.
"We got the right-front tire hurt and were falling back trying to stay on the lead lap," Biffle said after finishing 12th. "I was trying to move around some lapped cars and got up in the wall in 1 and 2 and the car wasn't the same after that. We probably knocked the toe out or something, but what got us in that position was hurting right-front tires. It could be camber-related or air-pressure, we don't really know. ... I think we were a top-five car easy until we started having right-front tire trouble."
Burton was another who voiced disappointment despite the fact that he posted his highest finish of the season (11th). The driver of the No. 99 Ford believed that he had a rocket ship, one capable of a top-five or better. But a cranky set of wheels changed the entire disposition of the race car.
"It's a little bit disappointing," he said. "About a third of the way through the race we were really fast and we had to pit and fix our grille because I poked somebody and had to fix that. Then we were really, really good -- a top-three car. Then we came in and put a set of tires on and then we weren't as good. It was terrible.
"We went to the back and were going to go a lap down and couldn't figure out why, so we came in and a tire was going down. So we made an adjustment to fix that and then we were too tight. All in all, it was a good day. I'm proud of our guys. They had good pit stops and we can build on this."
Amidst all the disappointment was Kenseth. His car was solid until he spun out. And even after that, he might have climbed back into the top 15 or 10. Anything was possible -- ask Kasey Kahne. But NASCAR penalized Kenseth for a pit road violation under yellow. The 17 team vehemently disputed the charge, but to no avail. The defending Cup champ finished four laps down.
"Don't ask me what NASCAR rules," Kenseth's crew chief Robbie Reiser said. "I don't know. Obviously, they've got a different set of rules for every race and I guess I've just got to get a rule book for every race. I don't know what happened. We never pitted, so pulling up to pit is a lame excuse for a lap penalty. I really don't know what happened. ... It seems like these days you need a rule book for every race track we go to."
Mark Martin wasn't disappointed with his day at Darlington, though. He's been fighting his way back from 42nd in the points after the first race of the year and his team continues to look stronger. The No. 6 Ford that the team unloaded at Darlington wasn't exactly a winning race car. Martin said it wasn't exactly a strong race car. But he couldn't stop thanking his team, as usual, for working tirelessly on the rig until they got it to where it finished seventh on Sunday.
"I've got the best race team in the business right now," he said. "We've just got to get our cars a little bit faster and we'll do that. I love (crew chief) Pat Tryson and my guys. I want to keep them charged up and keep them together. We're fighting right now, so I'm real proud of that finish. We'll keep working on it and try to get faster. I'm happy with the finish. We weren't as good with the race car as we hoped, but I'm really proud of Pat Tryson and the Viagra team."

Alt+<key> window menu shortcuts cannot be disabled
|Assigned to
|nautilus (Ubuntu)
Bug Description
I find the <alt> key ergonomically very useful (it can be pressed with a thumb without moving any of the "letter" fingers) and I would like to use it for many custom keyboard shortcuts (there is a reason why it plays such a big role in Emacs and the whole OS X for that matter).
Currently, though, <alt> is hardcoded to activate window menu entries (such as <alt>+F for the file menu, <alt>+E for the edit menu) and there is no way to surpass this functionality in all the applications. Personally, I find these shortcuts quite useless - they take you to "copy", "paste", and "open file" which have standard shortcuts anyway (with the exception of preferences, which for some reason don't have a standardized shortcut even though that's often the only thing a person looks for up there).
Expected behaviour
What I would like to see is a global option to disable these alt+<key> menu shortcuts to free up the <alt> key for other uses (similar to the option already available in gnome-terminal, only global). Preferably, activating this option would also remove the first-letter underlining in the menu to indicate to users that they can't acess it through shortcuts.
(I marked nautilus for apport to collect my version numbers, but this affects most applications - didn't know what the right target is)

In the terminal application in specific, you can disable the menu shortcuts
it in the options (otherwise I don't know how would I edit long commands).
For all the other applications, though, it is not possible to free
alt-shortcuts for other uses.

Woohoo! It seems that this is already possible! I just read this comment on an SO question
System Settings - Keyboard - Shortcuts tab - Windows section - Disable "Activate the window menu"
Although this is only alt+space initially, disabling it removes all the alt+<key> window menu shorcuts. Since this is the case, this bug report can be aimed at making that description clearer.

False alarm, it doesn't really work :(
It seemed to be working for Chromium, but not for all applications. Seems that Chromium didn't have these "shortcut" menu items - just alt+f mapping to its options.
The bug remains open...

To disable mnemonics you should create (if it doesn't already exist) ~/.gtkrc-2.0. This file should contain the line gtk-enable- mnemonics = 0 (you can add other GTK settings if you'd like). Then, restart for the changes to take effect (you may be able to log out then log in instead).
I don't know what are mnemonics, and it might depends on which version of gtk your application is using.

EVANSTON, Ill. --- Anyone with an MP3 device -- just about every man, woman and child on the planet today, it seems -- has a notion of the majesty of music, of the primal place it holds in the human imagination.
But musical training should not be seen simply as stuff of the soul -- a frill that has to go when school budgets dry up, according to a new Northwestern University study.
The study shows that musicians -- trained to hear sounds embedded in a rich network of melodies and harmonies -- are primed to understand speech in a noisy background, say in a restaurant, classroom or plane.
It is the first demonstration of musical training offsetting the deleterious effects of background noise, and the implications are provocative.
"The study points to a highly pragmatic side of music's magic," said Nina Kraus, Hugh Knowles Professor of Communication Sciences and Neurobiology and director of Northwestern's Auditory Neuroscience Laboratory, where the research was done.
The findings strongly support the potential therapeutic and rehabilitation use of musical training to address auditory processing and communication disorders throughout the life span.
Hearing speech in noise is difficult for everyone. But the difficulty is particularly acute for older adults, who are likely to have hearing and memory loss, and for poor readers who have normal hearing but whose nervous systems poorly transcribe sounds that ultimately are critical to good reading skills.
"Many older adults will say, 'I can hear what you're saying, but I don't understand you,'" Kraus said. "So they might have a little bit of a hearing loss, but often not enough to warrant the difficulty that a lot of older adults report."
Such populations could benefit from the reordering of the nervous system that occurs with musical training, according to the study. Because the brain changes with experience, musicians have better-tuned circ

Europe and Mediterranean Yacht Charters
The Mediterranean Sea is the world's most popular location for luxury yacht charter. The French and Italian Rivieras are absolutely chock-a-block each summer with some of the most spectacular yachts ever conceived. Marina slips in Antibes, Nice, St. Tropez, and Portofino are often booked a year or more in advance for the busiest times of the summer. This is where the glitterati, titans of industry, and world leaders choose to vacation each July and August.
And that's just the beginning. Luxury yacht charter is continually expanding well beyond the heart of the West Mediterranean, offering plenty of cruising destinations for all kinds of experiences. In the East Mediterranean, there is luxury yacht charter available in Croatia, the Greek Isles, and the southwest coast of Turkey. In Spain, the Balearic Isles have become an often-sought destination for culture combined with discotheques. Scandinavia also offers a short charter season each summer, with yachts available everywhere from the islands off Sweden to the spectacular Norwegian fjords. There is even the occasional Northern Europe charter available nowadays, with stops in historic cities such as St. Petersburg, Russia.
Our experts at Yachtstore can help you choose the Mediterranean destination that best fits your idea of a dream vacation—as well as the best yachts within that destination to suit your personal preferences.

Moyea YouTube Player
editor's review
2 comments
It's no surprise that people are downloading videos from YouTube on a regular basis since this is one of the most popular services on the planet, so every single software solution designed to make their life easier in this regard comes in quite handy.
This is also the case of Moyea Youtube Player, a very simple program that was designed not only to open YouTube videos on the fly, but also to work with FLV files.
Opening a clip is quite easy because the application comes with dedicated features to either load an online clip or a locally saved Flash video file, so everything is pretty straightforward.
If you got yourself in trouble when working with the program, there's always the help menu included in the package, but it won't do much good unless you have an Internet connection. Documentation is only available on the developer website, so you won't be able to access it in offline mode.
As for the way it works with FLV videos, Moyea Youtube Player is nothing different from the rest of the apps able to do the same thing.
There is no settings menu, just a few options that allow you to enable or disable the playlist and view the clip at the original size, double size, fixed size or full screen. More so, there's a dedicated tool to associate FLV files with Moyea Youtube Player.
Other than that, Moyea Youtube Player runs on low computer resources so it might very well deserve a chance. Overall though, you won't be impressed because even if it is very easy to use, it still does the same thing as many dozens of similar tools.

Some things are sweeter than revenge.
"I need a boyfriend."
Hearing those words from the mouth of his very straight ex-friend is enough to make columnist and editor Nate Gray choke on his Corona. It's been thirteen years since Kellan Brooks's father crushed Nate's family on his climb to wealth and power. Even longer since he entrusted Kellan with the confession that he might be gay-only to have his best friend out and humiliate him to their entire high school. The last thing Nate expects is Kellan begging for his help.
Breaking off his engagement to a senator's daughter was the last straw for Kellan's CEO father. Frustrated at being cut off, his father's stinging words-that he wishes Kellan had never been born-still ringing in his ears, Kellan turns to Nate. In a move worthy of a corporate raider, Kellan plans the ultimate revenge. Come out as the boyfriend of the man his homophobic father betrayed.
Convincing Nate to play along isn't easy. It's even harder to figure out why the lie feels so close to the truth.
Warning: Contains old friends, old enemies, a dramatic cat rescue, soft drink references and a lot of teasing before the steamy sex. Readers are cautioned against drinking any beverage while reading to avoid accidental snorting or spraying of said beverages.

Not really, and it's impossible to achieve on top of it all, without achieving mindcontrol technology. History has shown it is impossible. And it sounds to me like more black and white dualism. I think we just simply need to learn to agree to disagree and accept other's views, even if we don't agree with them.
Exactly, there is the illusion of certainity as well...I much prefer reality to illusions any day...
I believe there is a universal principal of morales, and it needs to be established. We need to all follow a specific doctrine of right and wrong if we want to work together.

Maliki Aides Claim Sadr Alliance to Be Announced Soon
Reported Deal Could Cut Iraqiya Out of Government
Top allies of Iraqi Prime Minister and State of Law bloc leader Nouri al-Maliki say that his bloc is putting the finishing touches on a deal to ally with cleric Moqtada al-Sadr's Iraqi National Alliance (INA), a move which would all but guarantee the two would be able to form the next government of Iraq.
The March 7 election saw Iraqiya, the secularist bloc of Ayad Allawi, narrowly edging State of Law with a 91-89 plurality, and both sides needing the 70 seat INA's support in their quest for the 163 seats needed to form a government.
Ali al-Adeeb, one of the top State of Law members, says that they are in talks with the INA to settle on who would be the next Prime Minister, and predicted that the partnership would be announced within the next few days.
If this proves accurate, the two Shi'ite blocs would be able to cut Iraqiya, and by extension virtually the entire Sunni minority, out of the government. The move would almost certainly spark outrage from the Sunnis, who saw Iraqiya's success as a chance to have some measure of say in the Iraqi government after years of Shi'ite domination. Allawi warned that the move would spark a sectarian war, and urged the US to get involved.

Interesting, things are going to go from bad to worse in a hurry.
After 400 years of being dominated and abused by the minority Sunnis, the Shiites are ready to take their turn running things, and the Sunnis their turn bending over. Democracy! Don't you just love it?
Don't place any serious bets until you get a line from Walid Jumblatt.
Sadr is brilliant beyond his years, has a strong hand, and is playing for the whole pot, which is, "US out".

NEW YORK (Dec. 30, 2010) -- The brain under general anesthesia isn't "asleep" as surgery patients are often told -- it is placed into a state that is a reversible coma, according to three neuroscientists who have published an extensive review of general anesthesia, sleep and coma, in the Dec. 30 issue of the New England Journal of Medicine. This insight and others reported in their review article could eventually lead to new approaches to general anesthesia and improved diagnosis and treatment for sleep abnormalities and emergence from coma.
The researchers explain that a fully anesthetized brain is much closer to the deeply unconscious low-brain activity seen in coma patients, than to a person asleep. Essentially, general anesthesia is a coma that is drug-induced, and, as a consequence, reversible. The states operate on different time scales -- general anesthesia in minutes to hours, and recovery from coma in hours to months to years, if ever. The study of emergence from general anesthesia and recovery from coma could help to better understand how both processes occur.
Understanding that these states have more in common with each other than differences -- that they represent a continuum of activity with common circuit mechanisms being engaged across the different processes of awakening from sleep or emerging from coma or general anesthesia -- "is very exciting, because it gives us new ways to understand each of these states," says study co-author, Dr. Nicholas D. Schiff, a professor of neurology and neuroscience at Weill Cornell Medical College and a neurologist at NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center. Co-authors of the study are Dr. Emery Brown of Massachusetts General Hospital, Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard Medical School, and Dr. Ralph Lydic from the University of Michigan.

I was reading a blog post by Paresh over on LinkedIn (see his post here) and his recommendation for automagically backing up all databases within a SQL Server instance. It inspired me to share my backup stored procedure. What does mine do that Paresh (and many others) do not do? Here's what I generally do […]
CTE to concatenate column values in multiple rows into a single string
Posted by Marc Jellinek in SQL Stuff on July 10, 2011
UPDATE: While using PIVOT and CTEs to concatenate strings is cool, I've found a better way using FOR XML… see https://marcjellinek.wordpress.com/2011/08/20/concatenating-text-using-for-xml/ ORIGINAL ARTICLE: Using SQL Server, one thing I've always done is used PIVOT to concatenate strings.

Latest RAID Experiment – VirtualBox and FreeNAS (8 TB RAID 5)

Worried nailed it. That is exactly how we drive the muslims out of business. If they are in this country then they have to adhere to the same laws as we Christians do. Buddy up with your best friend and go to their bakery and let them know just how in love you two are and that according to the law they MUST bake your wedding cake. Even if they don't do cakes, you want the nicest bread loaf for a cake anyone has ever seen. PUT THEM OUT

i find it a bit odd how the MSM is focusing a good deal of attention on these self defense cases involving firearms lately. does anyone else find it a bit peculiar? the MSM wants to play us all for fools. you should hate to own a gun, yet here is a good reason to own a gun. this is what happens when people own guns, this is why it;s a good idea to have a gun. they are pro/con all in the same damn week. but only the low-information sheeple stick to the notion that guns are bad.

our youngest and most impressionable, yes. but who's to say they have to know the person is an armed guard? he/she doesn't have to wear a uniform that clearly identifies that person as THE armed guard. when was the last time you were able to pick out the armed marshal on your last flight? there's a reason this individual isn't clearly identified as THE armed guard.
imagine if the principal had been trained and authorized to carry a conceal weapon. how much farther would this incident have gone? have you seen the story about the oregon mall shooting? this shooter was confronted by a conceal carry citizen, this shooters next shot was to take his own life. i contend that because the shooter didn't plan on or anticipate someone else at the mall with a gun.

November 22, 2012 at 2:46pm
in her own words, yes, she is a douche bag. BUT, what people need to take into consideration here is it is within her rights as a FREE American citizen to say and express herself as she wants. granted her actions aren't illegal, she can do and say whatever.
i too, would probably have asked for her to resign rather than make a public spectacle of the situation and announce her firing. i believe she has legal recourse here. again, not that i would condone her suit being brought or even keeping her employed with my company.
i fear when so many people are getting on the bandwagon of 'you should fire this woman' or 'why is she still working for your company' just helps pave the way for more of our rights to get trampled and infringed upon.
i am a veteran of the armed forces myself. if i would of seen somebody doing something like that i'd be in jail myself for slapping them silly. but myself and those like me fought and served so this dimwit could exercise her freedom of expression, regardless of how inappropriate it is.

i was shocked and stunned by the Hostess decision. of course growing up as a kid i enjoyed their products in abundant glory, and no i'm not a chunker: ) but their decision is noble and an exclamation mark on what socialist ideals will bring to this country.
i believe unions served a purpose at one time in the growth of our country, but same is the course of the fed gov't, unions are over-stepping their grounds. they make twice as much as anyone else would in their position were it not labeled a union position, not to mention benefits and pensions and whatever else perks with such a labeled position receives( i really wouldn't know because i've never been unionized).
i would hate to see Hostess go out of business. but by doing so i think would send a strong message across the country, or so i would hope it to be a strong message. i'm not sure how many other company's would have the courage to tell the unions they can have their 100% paycut. or that they will not agree to obamacare because it does not conform to their company beliefs or ideals.
the moron in the white house was spewing his garbage how the majority of the country made it clear that they wanted more of what he is doing and likes his direction. Hostess could pave a sweet path back to American prosperity if others would follow suit.

i watched the clip, and so what?. they are surrounded on all sides by people and nations that want to see them burn. this latest conflict was not started by them. just like here in our country, where we chastise the rich for being successful, in Israel we chastise them for defending themselves. oh the poor palestinian people, the women and children are dying as a result of Israel defending themselves. what i have observed is that Israel is being as surgical with their efforts as they possibly can. but when rockets are being launched from schoolyards and courtyards in front of mosques, i don't get why anyone demonizes Israel for this. hamas puts these rocket sites on these locations, why doesn't palestine expel hamas from its country?
November 19, 2012 at 11:41pm
you are correct and lest the gov't and those who think they are in control beware, we have taken our country before and we WILL take it again. there is a reason America is the greatest country in the world and has been for the past 300 years. this fact and people like us will not go away, and will not be silenced.

this is all just smoke and mirrors my friends. they are just biding their time in hopes this will blow over and to test their theories and excuses of their cover-up efforts. that is why it is taking so long to get to the bottom of this. their cover-up efforts are coming up short and they need to go back to playing politics.

Good barriers are the best solutions to keep lizards out of home
Q: I have small lizards which try to get into my porch through the drains in the storm sliders. What can I do to eliminate these pests?
— John, via email
A: Lizards are common sights in and around Florida homes. The Florida Museum of Natural History (http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/) lists more than 55 native and non-native species of reptiles commonly known as lizards residing in our state.
Growing up in Florida, our yard was filled with the native green anole (Anolis carolinensis). Though I spent hours chasing and catching this bright green lizard, I was taught early to respect and do no harm to this gentle garden inhabitant. Like most lizards, the green anole diet consists mostly of bugs and any thing that eats bugs is considered a friend.
The most visible lizard around my home and garden these days is the non-native invasive Cuban brown anole (Anolis sagrei). This critter is reported to have found its way to Florida in the 1880s. By 1940 it was found throughout most of the Florida peninsula. The Cuban brown anole creates problems by feeding on smaller animals, including hatchling green anoles and numerous spider species, another friend of the gardener.
Lizards generally are considered beneficial residents to the landscape and garden. Even though the brown anole appears to be the dominate anole species in most South Florida landscapes, it is not feasible to engage in an eradication process; there are just too many of them. Also, destructive as the brown anole is to native species, it is harmless to humans and pets.
As to keeping lizards out of the house or patio, there are no effective repellents. Good barriers are the best solutions. Make sure all windows have tight-fitting, small-mesh screens, caulk all openings around water pipes and install new door sweeps. Check these often for holes and replace as necessary.
Even with the best preventatives, a lizard probably will find its way into your home a time or two. I have found a broom to be effective in sweeping them out as is a deli container to capture the critter for release outside.

Deep snow makes Denali climb tough Wednesday for DupreThu, 01/10/2013 - 7:27am
In the latest report from Alaska's Denali, Lonnie Dupre had a good 10 hours of sleep during his first night on the mountain, but had a difficult climb Wednesday..
Dupre's website reports he pressed on his climb Wednesday for six hours until 4:30 PM. He reported deep snow, calm conditions and temperatures of 5 below zero F. He is making his third solo attempt to reach the summit of the highest peak in North America during winter. He would be the first to accomplish the solo feat.
Due to the deep snow, Wednesday was a tough day. The website reports Dupre is in good spirits and is looking forward to more progress on Thursday.
At the time of the Wednesday night report, Dupre was was at 7400 feet, half a mile from the 7800 foot camp where he is planning on breaing for lunch Thursday and pushing on until dark.
Wednesday's menu consisted of granola and coffee for breakfast, a protein bar and chocolate for lunch followed by mac and cheese with a side of chocolate for dinner.
Dupre's expedition can be followed at www.oneworldendeavors.com. .

It seems that if you are running safestrap, having the .173 update on the safe system side only updates your radio for that side. Odd, I know. In order to get this ROM and service working correctly, you must have safe system turned off, and your STOCK ROM must be at .173. Maybe this isn't the case for everyone, but it happened to me. I have removed SAFESTRAP and converted to Bootstrap. I won't be having this issue again! EDIT 2: HA! And it gets even better. Somehow my stock ROM got ****ered up. Update to .173 failed.

A D.C. Fontana Question
Looking through my copy of her novelization of
The Questor Tapes
, and noticed mention that Ballantine Books also published a novel by Fontana titled
The Winds of Space
. (This title is also mentioned in David Gerrold's non-fiction book
The World of Star Trek
as a possible series being worked on by Fontana in the early 1970s.)
Beyond the mention in
The Questor Tapes
, I can find nowhere any mention of
The Winds of Space
. (Yes. I tried Google.) Apparantly Ballantine jumped the gun on this as far as I can tell, unless it was published under another name and/or title.
Does anyone know of any interviews with, or articles about Fontana that mention this work?
Thanks in adavance.

I've been doing a lot of globalization work lately, so to capture some of my best practices around globalization, I've created a CodePlex project. Matt Dotson's Global Toolkit (http://www.codeplex.com/GlobalToolkit) is where I'll be posting code which can be reused in your global applications.
I've started to implement some stuff, but it is far from done, so take a look and tell me what you think. I've focused on a currency class so far that supports currency conversion, and currency enumeration. I've tried to make the toolkit extensible so that you can plug it into your own architecture.
