A Little Bit of History [BME Guest Column]
And now I wondered if that son ever cried for the man who raised him and watched him grow up? I’d be curious as to how Karl Rove would ever explain his pierced, gay father? He never told the people in Louis’ phone book that he had died, nor invited them to a service if there was one. No one even knows where he is buried.
Here are the ultrasounds from Anita’s Dr. visits. Poor quality images all, as they are on some kind of heat-transfer paper they don’t last, especially not in the heat. That said – they weren’t good quality images in the first place.
They are neat images though.amazing to see it grow from a bean to a vertebrate in a fairly short period of time. Fingers and toes… brain and legs. All looks healthy.
Firebug is a fantastic Firefox Add-On which allows realtime viewing and editing of a page’s DOM, CSS, etc. as well as net usage reports, and even JS timing and profiling.
If you work on the web, it’s well worth your time to familiarize yourself with this tool.

Petition to save Internet Radio: http://capwiz.com/saveinternetr
I’ve been reading up on copyright laws in America and internationally and it seems blatantly obvious that the extra costs and constraints put on internet radio are one symptom of a larger problem… that our copyright system is outmoded by the technologies of the past 20 years. That’s a larger problem for another day {read “Free Culture” for more information}.For now… lets look at Internet Radio.
So, due to a degraded HDD in my RAID5 array, I decided to build a new array.
I bought 4 320G Seagate drives… those drives have many benifits, not least of which, a 5 year warranty.
I already have a 3ware escalade RAID controller (7506-4LP), one of the best options for a hardware RAID controller.
Instead of building another RAID5, I chose to build 2, RAID1 arrays. I chose this because it’s much easier to buy 2 hard drives (upgrading one mirrored pair) than to buy 4 hard drives (to upgrade a 4 disk array).
Ran into a problem installing the 3DM2 (3ware raid management tool) on Ubuntu today.
Got an “” error when trying to run the install script.
After a bit of debugging, I figured out that the failing variable was in the “check architecture” section of the script… In my case, I simply stripped out the logic and put in the following text to just set variables to my specific setup:
After that it worked fine… but once installed, the service wouldn’t start… due to the following error “Failed to create SSL context”.
I am now hired on a 2 month contract with via studio, a very well respected design/development/consulting company. This may turn into a long term position, but the 2 month contract period is a good trial run for them and for me. I’ll update as I have more information.
Today is my last day of work at Mercer. It has ended lack-luster (painfully), but the whole experience has been great for me.
As you can see, I’m looking into my options for employment. I have a few leads, but would like to explore all of my options… at least all of the options I can get in quickly, as I’d like to have a choice made by late January.
