    Another stupid late night idea ...

    Of course, it's a bit of rah rah. The University of Georgia has not won the SEC college football championship in twenty years. Not since Vince Dooley was coaching and Hershel Walker was running. As Uga would say: Glory, Glory to Old Georgia, Glory, Glory to Old Georgia, Glory, Glory to Old...

    Best Ingredient for Single Topping Pizza

    Never heard of it. I am a pickle fan; I'll have to look for some. There is actually a special variety of onion grown in the area that I prefer called Vidalia. Only onions grown in South East Georgia can legally be called Vidalie. They have a mild taste...

    Replacement for Word, and Excel

    Interesting article from Mike Magee. It addresses something I have been thinking about myself. I am beginning to wonder what utility I am actually getting out of MS Office. I originally found a reason to use Word when it first introduced the Mail Merge thingy. I've since not needed this...

    For all you SUV lovers (and haters)

    Buck, Thanks for your time. You will have to excuse my working ignorance. I have an academic knowledge of 2-cycle and 4-cycle IC engines (ie. I have designed cam profiles and know what the timing belt is for :) ) and fluid dynamics but no experience with the two together. In non-ideal problems...

    Why? To both. What is back pressure? I can understand if the objective is to reduce the amount of exhaust that gets pulled back into the combustion chamber; but this does not seem to be what you are implying.

    Intermittent vibration, drive bearings going?

    On the other hand, I once had a WD IDE drive of around 600MB in size that had intermittant rumbling problems. The bearings eventually failed after about a month and a half of rumbling.

    Before matches, during warm ups, do cricketers shag flies? I think baseball players bat in an order determined by their defensive position and you rarely play more than one defensive position.

    WTF!!! (a working mind reader)

    So the question is, why does the answer to the game always equal a multiple of the number nine. If you write the game out in variable form we get: (10^1A + 10^0B) - A - B = C Which simplifies to: 10A + B - A - B = C You can immediately tell that whatever you pick for the ones digit does not...

    The big problem is that there are no corporate standards. Or, at least no one can tell me where they are. In essence, whatever I teach them will be the site standard. But we need standards for sure. In general, I'm of the opinion that large files should not be handled by the email system. Mail...

    It would be perfectly legal to start with say RH. IBM could clean out the fluff (programs that duplicate each other) in favor of a singular experience that is easy to install and support.

    surge protectors: The neglected topic

    A surge protector is basically a power strip with a fuse. This type would protect you from a massive power spike one might expect from lightning but have no effect up to that point. The surge suppressor has a fuse and filters (made from capacitors and inductors and other assorted bits or...

    Opti-UPS used to recommend not using a powerstrip costing more than ~$20 with their UPSs (on the battery side). The explaination was that a powerstrip costing more than that was actually a surge suppressor and did not play well with the UPS. Now they say this: They also have a new chart to...

    Mubs was just saying that poor power is not relegated to rural areas but that there are circumstances inside cities that would lead to poor/fluctuating power also. Frankly, I'd rather be twenty miles outside of town and three from the nearest sub-station than live in an industrial area.
