Juice Rap News - Episode 16: Electile Dysfunction. It's nearing the end of 2012, and the bastion of world democracy (The United States of America) is displaying its free and open process of elections for the world to observe. As is customary every four years, the rigorous selection process has served up a number of philosopher kings and queens from which to choose. But why have so many choices when with a bit of effort you can whittle it down to two candidates and let the people pick from those? Especially when it makes for such scintillating debates. Join Juice Rap News stalwart host Robert Foster as he shares his dreams for the Presidential Debates... and then receives something of a rude awakening.
Lee Camp, a rising star comedian who opened for Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala at Monday night's NYC Rally to Occupy the CPD, released this video after Stein and Honkala's arrest at Tuesday's presidential debate in Hempstead, NY.
"A Presidential Candidate was arrested last night AT THE PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE. And as if that's not insane enough, it's not even news?! Is that the kind of country you want to live in?"
When: Tuesday, October 23, 2012, 8:00pm CST
Where: University Club of Chicago – Chicago, Illinois
Debate Organizer: Free and Equal Elections Foundation, Larry King to moderate
Media Coverage: The debate will be broadcast live at www.freeandequal.org/live, and Al Jazeera.

"The events rapidly unfolding in the Republic of South Africa are of sufficient scale that they threaten many of the governing institutions of that young nation," said Hugh Esco, a former Secretary of the Georgia Green Party, who twice ran for Lieutenant Governor of Georgia. "The SAYRO office has become a vital center for organizing among the workers whose strikes have crossed industrial sectors and which is challenging the ANC-led governing regime. This struggle demands the support of Greens and all committed to justice."
An appeal letter initiated by Georgia Greens has since been joined by three Green Party nominees for President of the United States, including 2004 candidate David Cobb of California, 2008 candidate Cynthia McKinney of Georgia and the Party's current Presidential standard-bearer, Jill Stein of Massachusettes. Also cosigning the letter are Justine McCabe, a cochair of the International Committee of the Green Party of the Unites States and Greg Gerritt, chair of the GPotUS IC's subcommittee on Africa.

Joseph Groner in uniform
Updated: November 17, 2013 6:28AM
The federal shutdown did not cause Joseph Groner's problem, but his problem won't likely be fixed until the government gets back to work.
Groner, 89, a World War II veteran suffering from cancer, is more than a little anxious for that to be sooner than later, seeing as he's not confident he has much time left.
Groner is waiting for the Department of Veterans Affairs to process a disability claim he's had pending since 2007.
The claim was originally denied, but Groner appealed, and after a five-year wait, the Board of Veterans' Appeals ruled in his favor in August. The ruling entitles him to a yet-to-be-determined award of back pay and a monthly check going forward.
But after the favorable decision, the actual processing of Groner's payment disappeared again into the VA bureaucratic abyss, and now all claims work has slowed to a crawl because of the shutdown.
Even if Congress and President Barack Obama can work out a deal Wednesday, the two-week shutdown will undoubtedly be used as an excuse for months of delays at the VA.
Chalk up another victim of the idiots who think closing down the government, even a partial shutdown, doesn't hurt anything.
Let's stipulate: There are higher stakes involved in the Washington stalemate than Joseph Groner's VA claim, or even the claims of a thousand veterans like him.
The potential collapse of the nation's economy should top the list of concerns.
But sometimes it helps people grasp the big picture when they can digest a small piece of it.
You don't have to be a fan of government to understand it performs necessary functions that directly affect a lot of lives, even if you don't perceive yourself as one of them.
The processing of disability claims by our nation's veterans is one of those functions.
Groner, who lives in Lincolnshire, enlisted in the Army in 1942 and ended up serving on the Hospital Ship Marigold from June 1944 to December 1945 in both Europe and Asia.
Groner was assigned as a pharmacy tech, but when the Marigold arrived in Japan at war's end in the summer of 1945, he was pressed into duty as an x-ray technician.
He had no training for the role and therefore knew nothing about the importance of shielding himself from the radiation produced by the x-ray machine.
It was an extremely busy time for an X-ray tech aboard the Marigold as the ship's crew processed thousands of newly liberated Allied prisoners of war, each of them getting at least one chest X-ray.
"I was taking pictures all day long, being exposed to all this radiation and radioactive poisoning," Groner told me by phone.
About 20 years ago, Groner developed lesions and was eventually diagnosed with lymphomatoid papulosis and later anaplastic large T-cell lymphoma. A doctor told him his health problems might be related to the X-ray exposure.
Groner sought help from the Veterans Legal Support Center & Clinic at John Marshall Law School, and alum Frank Del Barto has represented him pro bono ever since.
The Board of Veterans' Appeals ruled in Groner's favor after bringing in a medical expert who determined he had likely been exposed to 20 times the acceptable amount of radiation.
Groner is proud of the work he did in the Army and would gladly do it again, but he still thinks his country bears some responsibility for the position in which it put him and wants this resolved.
"It's finally coming to an end, but it isn't coming to an end. In the meantime, I get older and weaker," Groner said.
"They won't have to pay for long because I won't be here for long," he added, as if hoping the promise would hurry his claim.
Groner blames the "politicians in Washington" for the budget impasse, but he isn't picking sides.
"I'm not saying one or the other is at fault," Groner said. "What we should do is sweep them all out."
As I've previously written, I think it's the Republicans' fault, and the sooner more people recognize that and put the blame where it belongs, the sooner this will be resolved. But I don't want to drag Groner into any partisan skirmish.
He's a man who deserves the attention of his government, and as things now stand in Washington, he can't get it.

You Found the Teens, Now What?
In the late afternoon leading up to Shavuot, I happened to be the only person left in the office and answered the phone. It was a Jewish communal professional who works with teens. She told me that every teen in her city was a member of her organization, and she was hoping that our Big Tent Judaism Professional Affiliates program and Big Tent Judaism Concierge could help her out. But it didn't sound like a problem—at first.
Of the 500 teen members, she could identify only about 100 as engaged – meaning those who actually attend activities. Since I am very familiar with her organization, I postulated that it was the parents who were signing up their children and paying the dues each year. But it was up to the organization's leaders to actually create meaningful experiences in which the members would like to participate, so that it didn't feel like an obligation to the parents, but a desire from the young members.
While through our Big Tent Judaism initiatives we work closely with professionals to identify the unengaged in their communities, the hard work is what to do with them after they have been identified. Most organizations put people on their mailing lists and send them a couple of newsletters, maybe an invitation to an event, and then, of course, either a membership pitch or a funding request. But if we ask the leaders anything about the people they identified, they probably wouldn't know much about them except whatever information was filled in on an attendance form.
Where are the one-on-one conversations to find out the individual's interests? Where is the face-to-face coffee date to figure out why they weren't involved in the first place? Who is responsible to guide the individual to a different organization if the identifying organization doesn't have what the person is interested in? These are some of the questions we ask the Jewish communal professionals with whom we work. They are, themselves, conversation starters, to get Jewish communal professionals thinking outside the box about bringing people into the tent. It's great to find the newcomers in your community. But if you don't serve them, instead of yourselves, you'll lose them just as fast as you found them.

She told me that every teen in her city was a member of her organization'.
What? Read that again.
Even if she means every Jewish teen, I still doubt that.
Maybe you should rephrase the article. That statement doesn't come close to passing any test.
Comment by Dave Boxthorn — June 4, 2013 @ 1:03 pm
Thanks for your comment, Dave, but I'm not sure what you mean. She told me that every single teen in her city was a member of her organization. She did mean every Jewish teen (she herself, as I mentioned is a Jewish communal professional). Of course she can't know that - I was reporting what she said - the gist of which is that she didn't need "members" - she needed help with "engagement" of those members.

I picked this bike up the other day from some guy that was giving it away. I dont know much about mountain biking or anything I'm just trying to find what the bikes worth maybe a year and just some various information about it.
Like I said its and OCLV Gary Fisher I'm pretty sure that most of the parts are aftermarket on it so I'm mostly aiming for a value of the frame.
Thanks in advance.

'The Daily Show' Does Jay Z's Barneys Beef Wrong
Jay Z's beef with the world over his Barneys associations has hit The Daily Show. On Wednesday night, Jon Stewart spent nearly seven minutes on the subject, echoing others' criticism that the Magna Carta Holy Grail MC wimped out in his response to the upscale retailer following reports of young African-American customers being singled-out for suspicion by Barneys and New York police — a policy of "shop and frisk," if you will.The grumbling (and petition-signing) directed at Hova stems from the fact that the rapper had already teamed with Barneys to create a special collection due to hit shelves on November 20. What's been consistently overlooked by most critics is the fact that proceeds from the BNY SCC line will benefit The Shawn Carter Foundation, which helps young people without means achieve their goals of a higher education.Disappointingly, The Daily Show omits this bit as well.
Chris Brown Accuses Frank Ocean's Cousin of Shakedown in Countersuit
Nearly three months after Chris Brown was sued for $2 million for his part in that January fight with Frank Ocean, the embattled R&B star is countersuing. Althought Ocean himself forgave Brown almost immediately for allegedly threatening to "bust" him and calling him a gay slur, Ocean's cousin Sha'Keir Duarte made it legal, claiming that Brown's bodyguard had attacked Duarte on Brown's command, and kicked him while he was on the ground.According to legal documents obtained by SPIN, Brown is now saying that Duarte threatened to kill the singer "without provocation" before making "gestures with his hands and fists to signal that he was ready to strike Mr. Brown in the face and on the body." The cross-complaint accuses Duarte of "outrageous and despicable" conduct "part of a calculated effort ...
Vic Mensa Is Inside of the Internet in 'YNSP' Video
Chicago rhymer Vic Mensa gives us another reason to celebrate his still-fresh mixtape, Innanetape, with the video for "YNSP," the Eliza Doolittle-featuring song first heard back in September. For the uninitiated, the SAVEMONEY crew member has a thing for the World Wide Web — the new set's title is a slurred portmanteau of "Internet" and "mixtape," and the song is an acronym for "Yung Netscape, Save Peso." The Nem Perez-created clip finds Mensa rapping amidst 3-D wormholes, iridescent static, and glitchy color bars. Also: YouTube windows within YouTube windows (vidception?), and flying cans of "Orange Soda." For more videos from Innanetape, check out the sunny clips for "Hollywood LA" and "Lovely Day."
Yuck Celebrate the VHS Tape in 'Lose My Breath' Video
Yuck regrouped earlier this year sans frontman Daniel Blumberg and wound up making a record that handily rivals their debut. Glow & Behold is aptly titled — a warm work that keeps dolling out gifts worth witnessing, from the shoegaze-guided "Rebirth" to the Elliott Smith-ish "Memorial Fields." Now the London band lets loose a fun and fuzzy visual for "Lose My Breath," one of the album's most honeyed alt-'90s throwbacks. The video comes courtesy of Videothing static-master Michael Reich and — a word of warning — is potentially seizure-inducing, apparently. It also pays tribute to another fetishized piece of pop-culture, the VHS tape.
Aaron Cohen Raps All Over Hollywood in 'Nickvanexelrose' Video
Aaron Cohen came from Seattle but he's made New York his home. The man rhymes with an Eastern swagger and undeniable confidence, as witnessed in the clip above. "I really don't care / That's the motto," he deadpans through that wild red beard on "Nickvanexelrose." The song takes its name from former NBA player Nick Van Exel and famous "asshole" Axl Rose (don't be salty, it's in the lyrics), both of whom make appearances. From there, though, we get Cohen and collaborator ABGOHARD experiencing some of the amenities of Los Angeles."We we're out in L.A. to talk to a couple of labels," Cohen tells SPIN. "We didn't know anybody and just started asking girls to hang out with us and be in the video. The girls you see in the video were the ones cool enough to say yes. I think the best aspect of the video is that we just brought our grimy vibes out to a glamorous atmosphere.
The National Get 'Lean' on for 'Hunger Games: Catching Fire' Soundtrack
The National return in particularly morose form (that's a good thing) on "Lean," the Brooklyn band's contribution to The Hunger Games: Catching Fire soundtrack. The 15-song set is rounded out by a broad range of artists including the Lumineers, Christina Aguilera, Patti Smith, and Mikky Ekko. We've already heard original contributions from Coldplay ("Atlas") and Sia with Diplo and the Weeknd ("Elastic Heart"), and the National's latest post-Trouble Will Find Me offering is strikingly unlike either, finding Matt Berninger doing his deep-voiced dad-rock thing over paced piano and bent guitar strings. Catching Fire hits theaters on November 22 — star Josh Hutcherson will be hosting Saturday Night Live when SPIN cover stars Haim perform — and the soundtrack arrives November 19. The last one debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
Juan Wauters Breaks From the Beets for Beautiful Folk Tune 'Water'
New York garage-folk hero Juan Wauters is breaking free from the Beets for his debut album, N.A.P. North American Poetry. In contrast to his shambolic band's crude punkish impressions, the man's solo material hews more acoustic and bare, showcasing his warm voice and knack for, yes, poetry that feels beamed in from a halcyon era. Below you can hear "Water," which finds the Uruguay native contemplating his place in the cosmos over light strum. Take a glimpse at the track list and album art below, and keep an eye out for upcoming dates. Wauters' globe-hopping live lineup includes singer Carmelle Safdie (Israel), multi-instrumentalist Tall Juan Zaballa (Argentina), percussionist Chie Mori (Japan), and flutist Amanda Rodi (Mexico). Watch the clip at the bottom of the post to learn what Jerry Seinfeld and Howard Stern have to do with it.Juan Wauters, N.A.P.

Kanye West's 'Yeezus' Tour Back on Track but Not for All
Last week we learned that Kanye West's incredibly ambitious Yeezus tour had been derailed by a truck accident, resulting in several dates being postponed while expensive, custom-made equipment integral to the stage show was refabricated. Now West's team has released the updated, final tour schedule and though three of the skipped cities will be serviced in December, several others will not.Those who will be blessed not only by the presence of West but by a guy dressed up as White Christ himself (not to mention that massive freaking pyramid they're traveling with) include Chicago, Detroit, and Toronto. Actively snubbed by Jesus and his favorite "Christian warrior" are Vancouver, Denver, Columbus, Montreal, Minneapolis, and St. Louis. Guess Bonny Bear bro is gonna hafta sit this out.New dates below. Meanwhile, when's the last time you communed with Yeezus?
Hear Jam City's Chiming Techno Feat 'Bells'

But the English producer is building up a mighty repertoire with the Night Slugs label, and now that buzzing U.K. imprint has let slip another highlight, the aptly titled "Bells." That chiming new track can be heard below — a fantastic addition to the inventive DJ tools EP Jam City shared in October, Club Constructions, Vol. 6.More massively inventive techno here:

We love how German slingshot fan Joerg Sprave keeps creating his own unique slingshot-based solutions to everyday problems, but just the thought of using a slingshot anywhere near a guy's most sensitive area makes me cringe.
Recently the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation issued a challenge, offering a $100,000 prize to anyone who could make condoms easier to use. German slingshot fan Sprave loves challenges, so he got right to work designing his "Condom Applicator Slingshot Gun."
In the video you can see how the gun rolls the condom into place in a snap, but the word "gently" seems to be lost on Sprave. He freely admits that the Condom Gun needs development, but hey, that's what the $100k is for, right?

Now That the Boxes Are Finally Unpacked
My hands are full with everything here. Rooms that need to be organized, garden areas that need to be prepared, just the basic everyday tasks are monumental here at times (we still dont have the washer hooked up, no oven or dishwasher) And yet, despite all this. my fingers itch to create again. All my supplies are packed away somewhere in that huge pile in the studio. SO...I have decided to make some rag rugs. My floors are cold. I need rugs and really I WANT rag rugs. I love their look, their cozy feel they put to a room. So I must make a loom. I think it can be relatively easy. I looked at a few in videos on youtube and on websites. I really love the ones that use a nice thin bar along the edge that they wrap the strips of cloth around as they weave so you dont get the hourglass shape when you are finished. How clever! So this is my next task, to convince Frenchie to take me to the hardware store to buy the supplies I need to make a loom and then I will have something to satisfy my creative itch! And if any of you have some good tips to help me along the way i would certainly appreciate it. This will be my first rag rug adventure!

See what a little affair does for a celeb's starpower? Sad but true, Anne Heche is suddenly interesting again now that she's "running lines" with her Men in Trees costar James Tupper.
While the actress won't confirm that their reel love is now real love, here's what she told Entertainment Tonight about the actor:
"We have a beautiful relationship . . . I think people like to read a lot into the chemistry we have on the show, and I think it's fantastic. We all have a lot of chemistry. We love each other, we're like a family here, we all go out on the weekends. I'm obviously going through something personal in my life, and I don't know what is going to happen in my future."
Let me translate: They're sleeping together. They hope the ratings go up. She'll probably like women again in a month, so she's just enjoying things while they last.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or for better environmental value.
The first recorded use of the term upcycling was by Reiner Pilz of Pilz GmbH in an article by Thornton Kay of Salvo in 1994.[1]
We talked about the impending EU Demolition Waste Streams directive. "Recycling," he said, "I call it downcycling. They smash bricks, they smash everything. What we need is upcycling- where old products are given more value, not less." He despairs of the German situation and recalls the supply of a large quantity of reclaimed woodblock from an English supplier for a contract in Nuremberg while just down the road a load of similar blocks was scrapped. In the road outside his premises, was the result of the Germans' demolition waste recycling. It was a pinky looking aggregate with pieces of handmade brick, old tiles and discernible parts of useful old items mixed with crushed concrete. Is this the future for Europe?
The upcycling concept was the title of the German book written by Gunter Pauli in 1997, the free translation of Upsizing (the opposite of Downsizing) book first published in 1996. The German edition was adapted to the German language and culture by Johannes F. Hartkemeyer, then Director of the Volkshochschule in Osnabruck. The concept was later incorporated by William McDonough and Michael Braungart in their 2002 book Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things. They state that the goal of upcycling is to prevent wasting potentially useful materials by making use of existing ones. This reduces the consumption of new raw materials when creating new products. Reducing the use of new raw materials can result in a reduction of energy usage, air pollution, water pollution and even greenhouse gas emissions.
Upcycling is the opposite of downcycling, which is the other half of the recycling process. Downcycling involves converting materials and products into new materials of lesser quality. Most recycling involves converting or extracting useful materials from a product and creating a different product or material.[2]
For example, during the recycling process of plastics other than those used to create bottles, many different types of plastics are mixed, resulting in a hybrid. This hybrid is used in the manufacturing of plastic lumber applications. However, unlike the engineered polymer ABS which hold properties of several plastics well, recycled plastics suffer phase-separation that causes structural weakness in the final product.
In developing countries, where new raw materials are often expensive, upcycling is commonly practiced, largely due to impoverished conditions.
Upcycling has seen an increase in use due to its current marketability and the lowered cost of reused materials.[3] Inhabitat, a blog devoted to sustainability and design, holds an annual upcycling design competition with entries coming from around the globe.[4]
Upcycling has shown significant growth across the United States. For example, the number of products on Etsy tagged with the word "upcycled" increased from about 7,900 in January 2010 to nearly 30,000 a year later—an increase of 275%.[5] As of April 2013[update], that number stood at 263,685, an additional increase of 879%.[6]
The tradition of reusing found objects (objet trouvé) in mainstream art came of age sporadically through the 20th century, although it has long been a means of production in folk art. The Amish quilt, for example, came about through reapplication of salvaged fabric. Simon Rodia's Watts Tower (1921-1954) in Los Angeles exemplifies upcycling of scrap metal, pottery and broken glass on a grand scale; it consists of 17 structures, the tallest reaching over 30 meters into the Watts skyline.
Intellectually, upcycling bears some resemblance to the ready-made art of Marcel Duchamp and the Dadaists. Duchamp's "Bicycle Wheel" (1913), a front wheel and fork attached to a common stool, is among the earliest of these works, while "Fountain" (1917), a common urinal purchased at a hardware store, is arguably his best-known work. Pablo Picasso's "Bull's Head" (1942), a sculpture made from a discarded bicycle saddle and handlebars, is the Spanish painter's sly nod to the Dadists.[7]
Throughout the mid-century the artist Joseph Cornell fabricated collages and boxed assemblage works from old books, found objects and ephemera. Robert Rauschenberg collected trash and disused objects, first in Morocco and later on the streets of New York, to incorporate into his art works.
The idea of consciously raising the inherent value of recycled objects as a political statement, however, rather than presenting recycled objects as a reflection or outcome from the means of production, is largely a late 20th century concept. Romuald Hazoumé, an artist from the West African Republic of Bénin, was heralded in 2007 for his use of discarded plastic gasoline and fuel canisters to resemble traditional African masks at Documenta 12 in Kassel, Germany. Hazoumé has said of these works, "I send back to the West that which belongs to them, that is to say, the refuse of consumer society that invades us every day."[8]
Jeff Wassmann, an American artist who has lived in Australia for the past 25 years, uses items found on beaches and junk stores in his travels to create the early Modern works of a fictional German relative, Johann Dieter Wassmann (1841-1898). In "Vorwarts (Go Forward)" (pictured), Wassmann uses four simple objects to depict a vision of modern man on the precarious eave of the 20th century: an early optometry chart as background, a clock spring as eye, a 19th-century Chinese bone opium spoon from the Australian gold fields as nose and an upper set of dentures found on an Australian beach as mouth. Wassmann is unusual among artists in that he does not sell his work, rather they are presented as gifts; by not allowing these works to re-enter the consumer cycle, he averts the commodification of his end product.[9]
Max Zorn is a Dutch tape artist who creates artwork from ordinary brown packaging tape and hangs pieces on street lamps as a new form of street art at night. By adding and subtracting layers of tape on acrylic glass with a surgical scalpel, the artwork can only be visible when light is placed behind it, mimicking the effects similar to stained glass window methods. His technique with pioneering upcycling work with street art has been featured at Frei-Cycle 2013, the first design fair for recycling and upcycling in Freiburg, Germany.[10]
A prominent example is the Orquesta de Instrumentos Reciclados de Cateura in Paraguay. The instruments of the orchestra are made from materials taken from the landfill that Cateura is built around. (See the YouTube video of The Landfill Orchestra)
Many industrial processes, like plastic and electronic fabrication, rely on the consumption of finite resources.[11][12] Furthermore the created waste may have an environmental impact and can affect human health.[11] Within this context, upcycling describes the use of available and future technologies to reduce waste and resource consumption by creating a product with a higher value from waste or byproduct streams.
In consumer electronics, the process of re-manufacturing or refurbishment of second-hand products can be seen as upcycling because of the reduced energy and material consumption in contrast to new manufacturing. The re-manufactured product has a higher value than disposing or downcycling it.[13]
The use of Brewer's spent grain, a waste product of brewing processes, as a substrate in biogas processes eliminates the need for disposal and can generate significant profit to the overall brewing process. Depending on the substrate's price, a profit of approximately 20% of the operational costs is possible. In this process, the biogas plant acts as an "upcycler".[11]
The worldwide plastic production was 280 million tons in 2011 and production levels are growing every year. It's haphazard disposal causes severe environmental damage such as the creation of the Great Pacific garbage patch.[12] In order to solve this problem, the employment of modern technologies and processes to reuse the waste plastic as a cheap substrate is under research. The goal is to bring this material from the waste stream back into the mainstream by developing processes which will create an economic demand for them.
One approach in the field involves the conversion of waste plastics (like LDPE, PET, and HDPE) into paramagnetic, conducting microspheres [14] or into carbon nanomaterials by applying high temperatures and chemical vapor deposition.[15]
On a molecular level, the treatment of polymers like polypropylene or thermoplastics with electron beams (doses around 150 kGy) can increase the material properties like bending strength and elasticity and provides an eco-friendly and sustainable way to upcycle them.[14][16]
PET could be converted into the biodegradable PHA by using a combination of temperature and microbial treatment. First it gets pyrolized at 450 °C and the resulting TA is used as a substrate for microorganisms, which convert it finally into PHA.[17] Similar to the aforementioned approach is the combination of nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes with powdered orange peel as a composite material. This might be used to remove synthetic dyes from waste water.[18]

ive heard of one organization losing an nt4 server (still worked) and eventually finding it in a bricked up cubby hole.
Who said the ICT dept couldn't work out of a stationery cupboard? I've been doing it for years - and with two other people in there!
Jems workplace had similar...we were asked to look at it, as it was "a bit slow".
1 old Poweredge SC, sat on the floor, no UPS etc, surrounded by mess with a CRT on top.
8 port router/switch by this providing internet to entire company
wires coming off this like spaghetti, taped to carpets, run round floorboards etc to office PCs
one wire pushed through a hole drilled in the wall to the office next door (studio)
This wire ran to another 8 port switch, supplying more PCs in the studio..then it joined to ANOTHER 8 port (not sure why). More wires taped to the floor etc.
One wire was worn down to the twisted pairs.
We ripped it all out. there were loopbacks, "dead" cables, we even discovered a headless XP box sat under/between 2 desks, acting as a print server to a LAN enabled Printer/Fax/Scanner.
The funniest bit? The whole place was structured cabling enabled, even down to a wallmount rack! They've just ignored it.
All got recabled, switches consolidated, excess removed, wifi point added, server stripped down to find hard disks just held in with 1 screw, lots of dust etc. All sorted.
Then we asked about backups..."erm..maybe, at some point.."..so we sent the boss out to buy 2x500gb USB disks. 1 batch backup script later on a schedule, and both disks contain the server data..one taken off site, 1 in place at all times.
Still no UPS or surge protection mind you, and it's iffy power down there...

When Christmas rolls around, I always start thinking about ham. I love those spiral sliced hams that you can get at most local grocery stores. They have a decadent flavor that just really makes my mouth water.
For years, I have always just stuck with using the spice pack that comes with the ham for the glaze portion, but a couple of years ago, I started making my own glaze to suite my taste buds. The powdered glaze from the pack just had a flavor that I wasn't really hyped up about, so I created the glaze recipe below.
This holiday season, if you make any kind of ham–you have to make this one!
- 1 spiral sliced ham
- 1 1/4 cups packed dark brown sugar
- 1/3 cup pineapple juice
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1 large orange, juiced and zested
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- Pineapple rings for decoration
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place ham in a roasting pan.
- In a pot, combine brown sugar, pineapple juice, honey, orange juice, orange zest, Dijon mustard, and ground cloves. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes. Set aside.
- Place pineapple rings on ham. Bake ham in the oven uncovered for 2 hours. During the cooking process, brush ham with glaze every thirty minutes for 2 hours. During the last 30 minutes brush the ham with glaze every 10 minutes.
- Serve ham alongside your favorite holiday sides.

Washington, DC (Sports Network) - Austin Freeman and Jason Clark each poured in 21 points as No. 9 Georgetown outlasted Big East foe DePaul, 86-75, at Verizon Center.
Chris Wright chipped in with 17 points and seven assists to help the Hoyas (12-2, 1-1 Big East) bounce back from a 69-55 loss to Notre Dame in their Big East opener on Wednesday. Julian Vaughn added 10 rebounds and nine points.
Cleveland Melvin posted a game-best 29 points and grabbed seven rebounds for the Blue Demons (6-8, 0-2), who have dropped two straight. Tony Freeland had 24 points and eight rebounds in a losing effort.
Vaughn gave Georgetown a 46-35 lead with a booming dunk three minutes into the second half. After two Blue Demon lay ups, Freeman drilled a three to make it a 10-point game.
However, DePaul stuck around with a six-point spurt, aided by Melvin's jumper and layup to trim the deficit to 51-50 with 14 minutes remaining.
Georgetown, though, never relinquished its lead by making its shots from the free throw line; an eight-point spurt late in the half put the Hoyas ahead, 79-65, with 2:40 remaining.
The lead wasn't threatened the rest of the way.
The Hoyas jumped to a 11-3 advantage to start the game thanks to Austin Freeman's seven straight points. DePaul clawed its way back by scoring five straight points to make it an 18-15 contest midway through the period.
With five minutes remaining, Georgetown scored six of eight points -- four on two Clark layups -- to extend its lead to eight, 31-23. The Hoyas held a 36-29 lead at the half.

Have you tried making light lictures with a torch? If you use a tripod and a torch with different coloured lights perhaps you can then find somewhere pitch black and draw pictures with the iight and the long shutter speed will capture the whole picture. It looks really call and i can't wait to try it properly when the weather gets nicer.

I didn't want a project but but I have one
This all started by chasing a leak from the cabintop hatch. First I thought I would only have to replace the headliner but before I knew it I was pulling off squares of iner skin and found a good portion of the cabintop core (plywood) was rotted. A previous owner had drilled holes through the exterior skin and plugged with epoxy. This did nothing except place little stalagmites of epoxy throughout the cabin top.
So here's the question(s), I have removed a good portion of the inner skin and found some rot, which I have scraped off. I also found a lot of wet wood that is firm.
1) Do I replace the whole cabin top core?
2) Can I use GIT ROT or ROT DOCTOR on the solid stuff and just replace the really rotted plywood? Will straight epoxy work better than what I just mentioned?
3) Will the core that I left between the exteror/interor plywood ever dry out?
4) I have cut the interor skn away in pannels, can I put these back up, or use new cloth?
Any input is appreciated. I tried to upload a photo but was unsuccessful.
Before doing anything else, you have to figure out where the water that rotted the core came from and deal with that. You really do need to replace the entire core, because, the chances of core material drying out once saturated is almost zero.
I would recommend re-glassing, not re-using the pieces you've cut away. The reason for this is simple. The longer and more continuous the glass fibers in a laminate are, the stronger it will be.
I'd use end-grain balsa for the new core, as it is lighter than plywood, and doesn't have the disadvantages as a core material that plywood does. I'd also recommend tapering the core material and putting solid glass at any points you have deck hardware coming through the deck.
Thanks for the response.
The previous job left hundreds of 1/4 inch holes in the top deck but never penetrated the wet wood underneath. There is simply no easy way to do the job right without removing the rotted/wet wood, which means cutting away a layer of fiberglass. Scary
If you need any 1/2" Balsa core, I have plenty.....
pay shipping and tell me how much you need....it's yours.

Jane Harman will announce tomorrow that she will leave Congress to head up the Woodrow Wilson Center, a think tank in Washington formerly chaired by former Congressman Lee Hamilton.

CA-36: Harman-Winograd Race Gets Negative in Final Weeks
|By: David Dayen Friday June 4, 2010 5:25 pm
Jane Harman is an eight-term member of Congress. Though she has faced primary challenges in the past, she's fairly entrenched in the district. This year, against progressive anti-war activist Marcy Winograd, she has spent twice as much as her opponent (about 1/3 of her money has come from PACs) and has the name ID and backing from the local establishment that should signal a cruise to victory?
So why is she running negative ads and sending out negative mailers throughout the district?

Feeling the Heat From Afghanistan (Part 2): Lame Duck Incumbents
|By: Josh Mull Tuesday April 13, 2010 9:42 am
In this political climate, it's not safe to support the war. Whether it's a mainstay facing a primary challenge like Harman or a lame duck on the way out the door like Delahunt, if they can't join the mainstream and move to end the war, their reputation is toast. This is the choice politicians are facing in 2010. Either they're with the mainstream American opinion, or they're supporting the killing of civilians and the incipient cover-up and escalation of violence.

Tip for RVers: Backsplash Protection
July 1, 2014 by Good Sam Camping Team · Leave a Comment
After purchasing a new trailer, I realized it needed a backsplash for the island sink in the kitchen. I purchased a 2 x 2-inch oak board and cut it to fit the sink. Next I cut a 1-inch-deep groove down the center, wide enough to accommodate a piece of plexiglass. I then stained and sealed the board, and secured it to the counter behind the sink using clear caulking. Finally, I rounded the top corners of a piece of plexiglass and added window film to the back side. Now I have an attractive, lightweight and removable backsplash, all for less than $20.

Naturally me being me, and always wanting to learn more, I set out to see what else was cooking in the world of travel marketing and its use of social media.
Virgin America launches first in-flight social network
That was the headline of an article on boston.com a few months back.
'Wow, the first in-flight social network' I thought to myself. This sounds cool and I need to investigate, which I did.
What I found was this new social media network, which began rolling out on all domestic Virgin America flights toward the end of February, and will allow passengers to connect via their LinkedIn connections with passengers on their specific flight, guests on other Virgin America flights in the air, or fellow travelers at their destination.
In a shining example of a brand actually listening to its customers, Luanne Calvert, Virgin America's Chief Marketing Officer, said the genesis of this idea came from passengers themselves.
"When we surveyed our business travelers, we were surprised to learn that the ability to connect with other Virgin America travelers in-flight or en route to a destination was a frequent request," said Calvert. " The best business connections often happen unexpectedly, and we've heard many stories of partnerships and start-up ideas being born on our flights."
Back to the Future
Way back in 2012 I wrote a piece KLM: A Company That 'Gets' Social Media, which shed some light on a new KLM program called "Meet & Seat" which allows passengers to link their social media profiles (Facebook and LinkedIn) to their check-in information and choose a seating partner according to their profile.
For that particular piece I had the chance to speak with Martijn van der Zee, senior VP E-Commerce for Air France-KLM.
I recently reached back out to Martijn to see what new programs KLM has cooking when it comes to social media. Not surprisingly after speaking with him again, I am even more firmly convinced that KLM absolutely "gets it" when it comes to social media.
Three of the latest programs he told me about were:

Last but certainly not least
There are two "things" I want to share with everyone from my conversation with Martijn van der Zee for the simple reason every brand, company, C-level, VP and on and on can learn from it.
The first is an anecdote he told me re: when KLM first dove into the social media waters.
"It was 2010," he started off. "We had only a simple Twitter and Facebook account. There was this moment where one of my employees entered my room and said: 'we can either pretend the questions aren't there or we can start answering them. But be aware: if we start answering, we can never go back.' And so we did and we never stopped."
Lesson #1: Once you enter the world of social media you cannot exit. Short of your company going out of business, you must stay active and respond and engage and not just when things are going well, either. You cannot just answer the easy questions and ignore the hard ones. There is no pile of sand big enough on this planet or any other for you to bury your head in.
The second "thing" I want to share from my chat with van der Zee is this line "We believe we are a guest at somebody else's party."
The line came from part of a larger discussion in which he also said "Social is not a marketing tool as others. Social talks back. We believe we are a guest at somebody else's party. Adjust yourself, don't start spamming others with your own messages. The nice thing about social media is that it is very honest. You know when you do well and you sure know when you don't (do well.) The customer is our judge everyday and that's what makes it exciting and challenging at the same time."
Lesson #2: You, Mr. and Mrs. Brand, are not in control. You are, as van der Zee so eloquently puts it, a guest at somebody else's party. The consumer is throwing this party. Yes you may be invited but you are surely not exempt from being shown the door at any moment.

Hi Steve,
Your blogs are spot on regarding social media and the travel industry. Social travel sites such as AFAR and TripAdvisor were key to my last vacation. As marketers [and fellow travelers] we need to remind ourselves and each other that guidebooks, while a decent starting point, all too often represent only those who pay to be listed and the point of travel is to experience for oneself.
The smallest B&B can generate a lot of good PR from word-of-mouth advertising. For example, I found a small B&B in Bruges, Belgium thanks to travelers and locals who responded to my post on AFAR.com. I was so impressed that I wrote a review on Trip Advisor and AFAR. A few days later, the innkeeper e-mailed me and thanked me for the review citing several bookings who indicated my review solidifed their decision.
All the best.
