No More Free FTP for Uncle Sam

No More Free FTP for Uncle Sam 09/05/2004 09:42 AM

Ipswitch yanks free FTP software from government market: I've used WS_FTP faithfully for years. At work, I've paid for the professional version (v9 is just out and it's quite good — they finally updated their sorry user interface), but at home I use the Limited Edition that they're talking about here.

Ipswitch has pulled WS_FTP Limited Edition, its free FTP software, from the government market.

Agencies no longer have the license to use the free utility program or the right to distribute it, according to company officials.[...]

Shawn McCarthy, program manager in government and education at IDC, said that although the free utility has long been popular, "the need for increased security — including secure connectivity, encryption for greater file security and key matching technology — is now driving government users in a new direction."

Nothing in this article says it's not still free for personal use.

Uncle Sam Through Saudi Eyes

Uncle Sam Through Saudi Eyes 03/15/2003 05:14 PM
Colin Powell and the Marketing of Uncle Sam is an idiosyncratic rant by Afnan Fatani, professor of stylistics at King Abdul Aziz University, in the English-language Saudi journal Arab News, arguing the sinister implications of Colin Powell's employment of advertising experts to put the American message to the world. Starting with Nelson Mandela's recent comments, among them that the U.S. is disregarding the U.N. because its leader, Kofi Annan, is black, Prof. Fatani achieves some rhetorical fireworks from the observation that "Uncle Ben is not Uncle Sam."

During the days of slavery in America, white men discovered the powerful singing voices of their black slaves. Today, judging from the sleek performance of Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice, American leaders have apparently discovered and successfully utilized the articulate skills of their black citizens. Too bad the message these black politicians are promoting is Zionist war and destruction, and not Christian peace and goodwill. Too bad that Powell and the Bush administration have between them tainted the white wholesome goodness of Uncle Ben’s Rice.

According to a December 2002 story in Salon, Powell had sa id, upon hiring ad mogul Charlotte Beers at State, "Hey, she got me to buy Uncle Ben's rice." Interestingly, Richard Lyons posted an op-ed based on a very similar conceit in February 2002 — though without the bizarre racial overtones. Didn't German soldiers taunt black GIs with the fact of their second-class citizenship during WWII? Stylistic it is, a mishmash of apocalyptic scriptural interpretation and Internet antiwar rhetoric. Fellow Netizens, I give you our Saudi allies on this, 12 Muharram 1424, the eve of war.

As the federal technology budget ballooned, Apple's market share in computers sold to the government rose from 1.6% in the first quarter of 2003 to 2% in the same period this year. Today, Apple is the government's No. 6 computer supplier -- and climbing. By Olga Kharif, BusinessWeek (via MyAppleMenu)

The Motley Fool - How much are you allowed to gain from the sale of stock before you must pay capital gains tax on it? Uncle Sam's hand is out as soon as you make your first dollar. However, you can offset some of the gain with any losses from sales of stock. So if you've made a bundle on Dell (Nasdaq: DELL - News) and have lost a bundle on Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq: SUNW - News), you can eke out a bit of a benefit from the loss.

Report from Andy King.... 04/21/2004 03:54 PM

marc,

hi, thought this would be of interest to the broadband community.

US Narrows Canadian Broadband Lead - US Broadband Penetration Grows to 46% - April 2004 Bandwidth Report

The US has narrowed Canada's broadband lead to 9.2%. US broadband penetration grew by 12.2% to 46% over the past year, while Canadian broadband adoption grew just 3% to 67% over the same time period.

http://www.websiteo ptimization.com/bw/0404/

there may also be a limit to the level of broadband penetration.

let me know if you have any questions,

Multifaceted history of the Mac from
Andy Hertzfeld and co 01/26/2004 10:15 AM
The Folklore project is legendary designer Andy Hertzfeld's collaborative undertaking to collect anaecdotes from the birth of the Macintosh from the people who were there when it went down. Multiple perspectives illuminate the subjetivity of memory and the way that things are different from different points of view. (The back-end is a new software project meant to allow for folkloric collection and organization regarding any subject).

The first time we went to lunch, I found out that Burrell's creativity extended beyond his engineering work. He would often try to convince our waitress to concoct variations of the standard fare on the menu, thinking of something different every time.

For example, after he successfully persuaded a waitress to divide his pizza toppings into thirds, he asked her to do fifths the next time. Or he would sometimes try to order mixed sodas as if they were cocktails, in ever varying proportions, like three quarters Coke, and one quarter Sprite. Often, the waitress would balk but Burrell was sometimes charming enough to eventually convince her to comply. He would also obsess on certain foods, becoming fixated on Bulgarian Beef sandwiches from Vivi's for a while, and then a Pineapple Pizza phase (see Pineapple Pizza) , evolving to his most enduring favorite, sushi, which provided a new range of interesting choices and combinations.
