To Boston by bus or bust







To Boston by bus or bust

To Boston by bus or bust 05/11/2004 01:22 PM

Usually when I go home to Boston to visit my family, I spring for the Acela train because you get guaranteed seating and it's fairly fast (~3.5 hours). But it's also very expensive, nearly $200 round-trip. So this past weekend I resorted to my old friend, the Peter Pan bus. And would you believe it, if you purchase your ticket online in advance (all you seem to need is one day before you depart), it's $30 round-trip. $30! Ok, they stick you with a $4 fee for "will call pick-up" but still, that's nearly six trips to Boston for the price of one train trip. And both ways, my journey was four hours exactly. Sure, it wasn't as pleasant as the train, and there's no plug for your laptop, and they showed the movie The Recruit both ways, but what do you expect for that price? I'm going to take the bus more often, I just can't resist a bargain!

Baghdad or Bust 02/01/2005 09:24 PM
It’s said that Iraq is a colonial artifact, a paint-by-numbers nation of dissimilar parts: non-Arab Kurds in the north, Sunni Arabs in the middle, majority Shi‘a Arabs in the south. The end of World War I found Western powers in control of formerly Ottoman Turk lands in the Middle East. Colonial administration and the eventual withdrawal of Westerners (Britain, in the case of Iraq) left phony national borders that served the occupiers' whimsy or...

CAN-SPAM Big Bust


CAN-SPAM Big Bust 08/06/2004 06:04 AM
MX Logic, a firm who has been tracking CAN-SPAM complience, says, "Get a good spam filter, because despite federal law, it's not going away anytime soon."

The numbers don't lie: CAN-SPAM is a bust. Compliance with CAN-SPAM has fallen to a new low, according to recent data collected by MX Logic.

In July, compliance fell for the first time under one percent to a measly 0.54 percent of all unsolicited commercial mail the company sampled during the month.

The Denver-based firm has been tracking compliance with CAN-SPAM since the federal law went on the books in January. Through April, MX Logic's numbers remained stable, with about three percent of spam messages complying with the law's requirements, which range from verifiable return addresses to measures consumers and businesses can use to opt out of mailing lists. In May and June, however, the number slipped to one percent.

"Now it's been halved," said Steve Ruskin, a senior analyst at MX Logic. "No one's really sure what's going on, but it's clear that CAN-SPAM isn't a threat to spammers. They're just ignoring it."
