Do you ever get to a point where you know that you are about to go on wicked run, but aren’t sure where it is you are going to go?
I’m at that point. The last time this happened I programmed for 16 of 24 hours and came up with a pop3 proxy that could check for spam, viruses, apply certain actions based on the results and do various account verification and logging. This was just a proof of concept all written in PHP.
There has been a lot reported about the Bush administration’s missing email issue. The main details are this. A 1993 court decision stated that emails fell under the Presidential Records Act which requires the president to preserve documents related to the performance of his official duties. Seems pretty reasonable that the White House should keep a record of every email that is sent.
The Clinton Administration answered this decision by adding an archiving system to their Lotus Notes email system.
Let’s have a moment of silence for the ribs:
A brake fire sparked a massive barbecue on Interstate Highway 80 near Hazel Crest early Wednesday, when a truck hauling 25 tons of beef ribs went up in flames, state police said.
The semitrailer truck was traveling east on I-80 about 12:30 a.m. Wednesday and was exiting onto southbound Interstate Highway 294 when a fire started in the braking system, igniting a blaze that consumed the trailer, said Master Sgt. David Bird of the Illinois State Police. The driver escaped unharmed.
I don’t think I’ve ever been happier for a M$ software release.
Messenger for Mac 7 is now available!.
Now, for most people, you’ll probably bitch that basic functionality like AV chat for home accounts is not available on the new version of Mac Messenger. And I can understand this complaint seeing as iChat has had this for years. The main issue, as I understand it, is that the M$ Live service needs to go through a series of improvements to catch up with the communication services offered on the corporate product offerings. Mainly, enhanced presence that is tied into Office Communication Server.
A corporate logo is not something to take lightly. Companies spend thousands of dollars with marketing groups doing research, endless revisions to come up with just the right logo.
Apparently, someone at the Office of Government Commerce in England forgot to turn the logo on its side.
Too funny.
