Roadless Rules for Forests Set Aside

07/12/2004 10:41 PMwashingtonpost.com - The Bush administration said yesterday it plans
to overturn a Clinton-era rule that made nearly 60 million acres of
national forest off-limits to road-building and logging, setting aside
one of the most sweeping land preservation measures in decades.
Act TODAY to save California's
old-growth forests
Act TODAY to save California's
old-growth forests
08/04/2004 04:57 AMWhen I lived in San Francisco, I made no secret of the fact that the
city and its environs really bummed me out, There were the ocassional
highlights, like Fry's Electronics and the Musee Mechanique, but in
the main, San Francisco left me cold.
There's one major exception to this, though: the ancient redwoods
across the Golden Gate Bridge, in Muir woods and elsewhere. These
millennia-old giants are Northern California's most beautiful and
humbling feature. Standing alongside of one was like being in the
presence of something holy. I think that if I'd spent more time with
them, I might have stayed in California.
Today, California's old-growth forests are being indiscriminately
logged. Conservation of these irreplaceable trees is a nonpartisan
issue: it's an issue of humanity. If you love life, if you
love your children, if you love your world, then saving these trees is
something you should support.
The California Heritage Tree Preservation Act (SB 754) is being voted
on today (August 4th) by California's Assembly Appropriations
Committee. Before you go to work this morning, send your California
Assembly Member an email and a fax in support fo SB 754:
I urge your support of SB 754, the Heritage Tree Preservation Act.
This bill has been carefully written to protect some of California's
largest and oldest trees while minimizing impacts to landowners, jobs
and state revenues. The bill minimizes and offsets costs and it
preserves revenues to the state from tourism, recreation and
fisheries.
Fewer than one percent of California's old-growth trees remain
standing on non-federal forestland. SB 754 will protect these trees
and the ecological and economic benefits they bring to our state.
Millions of tourists flock to California's forests each year to
witness these towering giants with their own eyes. The trees protected
by this bill are among the oldest, tallest, and largest living things
on earth.
Please approve SB 754 and help us preserve California's ancient trees
for future generations.

It is funny, I have been thinking about a really deep subject for

it and close up shop? It is entirely “possible” according
to John C. Dvorak. He seems to think that it is not really that
outlandish for MS to “call it a day” for good with the way
things have been going for them….

doubt even among longtime fans of CIA Director George Tenet. One panel

CC-licensed prose: "Always Be Closing"
CC-licensed prose: "Always Be Closing"
05/04/2004 08:10 AMCasey Childers has produced a chunk of Creative Commons-licensed prose
called "Always Be Closing." It's the same scene, told thirteen times,
with (often NSFW) variations, a remix of something that has no
original, a kind of simulacra. He's chosen a license that allows for
noncommercial remixing -- I'm curious as to what new works can be made
out of these often disturbing scenes.
The waitress interrupted, "You boys need anything?"
The old man grinned, his mouth full. He made a quick effort to
swallow, but didn't hesitate to speak around the mess of potatoes that
remained. "The name of the man that cooked my lunch, miss. This is
heaven on a goddamn plate."
She returned a grin of her own. "His name's Merv, hon, and I'll be
sure to pass that along. Now how 'bout a warm-up on your coffee?"
"I served with a commie sympathizer who went by the name of Merv. He
had weak stomach, you know, loved to recite the poems he wrote about
his wife. He got his head blown off in a French whorehouse."

Closing the Book on Beagle 2
Closing the Book on Beagle 2
08/27/2004 01:37 PMA flurry of stories out today talk about the possible reasons for the
demise of the Beagle 2 Mars probe.
No definite cause for the probe's loss has been found but a secret
ESA report concluded the cause was poor
mangement and offered
19 recommendations for future missions. A new 288-page
internal report from
the Beagle 2 team itself offers a number of
possible theories and lessons learned from the experience. Among
their guesses are parachute failure,
airbag failure, heatshield failure, or an unexpected thin
atmosphere at the entry
point that led to an excessively high impact speed. One theory
suggests
that the probe actually landed successfully and has been fully
operational except
for a broken antenna or transmitter. Meanwhile, Beagle 3 is becoming
the
focus of
attention now and it's likely the new version of the robot space probe
will hitch a
ride on a US Mars mission scheduled for 2009.

09/17/2004 12:41 PMThe new version of
Mozilla Firefox is

"crappy and useless."
Question: One of my favorite features in Safari for OS X is the little
circled X in each tab, so you can close it by clicking on the actual
tab instead of having to go all the way to the right side of the
window in Firefox to click the close-the-tab X there. Is there any
Firefox add-on that makes it do the same thing?
