@idahoj said: Mike, I think your idea for an international body to police the 'net and provide anti-piracy monitoring is a grand one. That's me! A man of 'Grand' ideas but no clue how to get them implemented at the scale that is required in order that they could be effective! On the other hand, isn't voicing such and idea and getting folks to also back it, a start. This Bill will get through in some fashion, I have no doubt. It will probably have a few amendments tagged on before it does and I think that might be no harm. However, I am still nervous about the ways that it could be abused by the big wallet guys. Maybe in time the Net providers, the genuine ones anyway, will see that it is in their interest to form into a consolidated international group and self monitor / regulate their industry in a democratic fashion. Until now they may not have seen the need or a good reason to do so but this Bill could change that, particularity if abuses creep in and I have no doubt they will.

We have project affiliation with all of the above, and some financial support from various agencies, and all sorts of support and endorsement, but no direct organizational affiliation.

Good backups are definitely critical! A few suggestions I have: burn DVD's of current files monthly - always good to have optical backup. My file sync software of choice is Synkron. I got rid of mirroring my hard drives after I experienced some corruption problems. It's quite a *itch to get files off of one half of a mirrored drive... Now I have a setup where I schedule synkron to copy updated files daily to a second hard drive that I basically use as a mirror, without the mirror format. I then have an external drive I update weekly.

Saw this the other day on Gizmodo. It's absolutely mesmerising.

No, you cannot save it like that. php scripts are run on server side only so you cannot even see them from the source code. See your PM's. I send the code for you. Change the txt extension to php. Please, make sure to change the email address on line 3 to yours (best before renaming to php) in the script - otherwise all the emails will end up in my mail box.

That would be great.

I expect the UK Big Brother to have 10000 of them in operation for their CCTV system within five years.

I would like to see some in door lighting and spot lights technices. Object that internally glows, that is not made out side of shetchup.

I'd rather go with the world according to Ned Flanders and have a total frontal lobotomy!! Notice the great big Hollywood type production to that trailer? Are thrills and dark secrets the way to win arguments? And where is all this 'powerful technology beamed to us via UFO*****'? Conspiracy theories have so far proven nothing and are not the way forward. *****U.F.O.= "United Fruitcake Outlet"

You can try it here: http://www.hitta.se/LargeMap.aspx?var=stockholm Guide for Understanding the Swedish controls: First, click "3D" at the top middle. At the bottom there are controls to zoom in and out. At the bottom right there are controls to rotate and tilt the map (luta kartan). My personal opinion is that it is cool and useful and does a good job with trees, but I personally prefer something that is only photo and not modified in any way. Not as cool but makes it easier to see details IMHO. Also the distance where it goes from high to low res is a bit short (at least in this (hitta.se) implementation.)

seems that I am a bit out of date! max 11 now imports Su files (version 7, and max 12 verion directly!

Yes I have no problem.
