PC Mag Says Death to 802.11b (Almost)

PC Mag Says Death to 802.11b (Almost) 04/29/2004 04:15 PM
PC Magazine rounds up several 802.11g routers, and says they're cheap enough, they're good enough: 802.11b no longer enjoys a large enough (or any) price differential for quality Wi-Fi gateways that include WPA encryption support, PC Mag says. So while you can still find 802.11b devices on the market, they recommend new gear have 802.11g built in. The overall package of reviews and related stories in the issue starts here; use the table of contents at the right of that story to navigate through their guide to 802.11g, advice for buying, and reviews of individual routers. The Linksys WRT54G gets top marks for 802.11g with a score of 4.5 out of 5 points; but six other gateways received 4 of 5 points, showing how the entire Wi-Fi world has matured into more usability....

Being towards death Hanan Cohen intertwines the mortality of blogs with our own mortality: We think that we will live forever. We think that the files we have stored on machines powered by electricity will also live forever. Our files have no other purpose than to be online. We think that if our files are not available to the web, they are dead. In a way, thinking about the death of our files is like thinking about our own death.

« Nathan Wood, Marine LCpl age 19, in Kirkland, WA. »

Aaron Huey sent me this photo that is featured on Sunday's Seattle Post-Intelligencer's front page and asked that I share it. My father was a Marine in the signal corps in one of those wars few remember and even fewer remember what the war was about. Fortunately, he didn't come home in a box as this teenager did. There just aren't words that describe what war is really all about better than a single picture. War is death. Death of people you know and love. Something to think about this week as families come together for Thanksgiving, some with an empty chair or two at the table.

I took this photo yesterday at the funeral of Nathan Wood, Marine LCpl age 19, in Kirkland, WA. Nathan was killed November 9 in Fallujah. His best friend, Garrett Ware, also a marine fighting in Falluja, was injured and sent home with a purple heart. In this image Garrett hugs Nathan's father, Rex Wood, at the funeral in Kirkland yesterday.

Beijing (AFP) - The Chinese authorities have sentenced two Hong Kong men to death for smuggling digital player components into the southeastern city of Xiamen...

I don't want to be judgmental or anything, but killing 23 people to protest the death penalty and sentencing to death people for smuggling digital player components both seem a bit extreme to me...

I hope Ronald Reagan's family is finding a measure of solace today after the death of the former president. His 10-year battle with Alzheimer's disease testifies to his physical strength in the face of one of the most terrible illnesses anyone can face. The cruelty of Alzheimer's is felt perhaps most by the family members who have to watch, and care for, a loved one whose mind is taken away. I wish them peace.

Death by Mushroom

Death by Mushroom 09/23/2004 09:07 AM

« Mushrooms that resemble the Lauttasaari water tower. »

Finland has a thing for mushrooms because, I suppose, they grow pretty well here and they are plentiful this time of year. The first time I visited Helsinki, I fell in love with the Lauttasaari water tower because I thought it looked like an alien space ship or mushroom that had an eerie blue glow at night. The water towers in Finland frequently resemble mushrooms or other fanciful shapes, but the Lauttasaari space mushroom remains my favourite.

On one of the first grocery shopping trips I noted a wide array of mushrooms in the produce section and Jarkko pointed out the false morels that he said were deadly unless cooked properly [I will add here that there is a marvelous Nordic and Russian languages food glossary as well as a very beautifully done Finnish/Russian collection of recipes on the same website]. This, of course, was noted next to the harmless looking fungi, but only in Finnish. I suppose that I was shocked to think that anything in the grocery might actually be deadly, especially for some city kid like me who wouldn't know my ass from a poisonous mushroom if let into the woods on my own. My German mother loved to drag us out into the woods to hunt for morels as well as for blackberries to make into jams. The only problem with this was that if you didn't put at least 3 rubberbands/elastics around your sleeves and pant legs and wear gloves on your hands and plastic bags over your socks, you'd be in agony for a week or more due to the dreaded fuckingus chiggerius. These guys are invisible and invite 5000 of their closest friends to dine on your digested flesh, they make mosquitos look good. My choice whether to forage in the woods with the flesh eaters vs. shopping in the grocery in later years was pretty easy.

I also immediately thought of the liability insurance and lawsuits in the US arising from all the deaths of people who couldn't be bothered to read the warning signs next to them. Perhaps this is passive Darwinism in Finland at work since kids here are trained in the art of identifying mushrooms and berries, even the Latin taxonomic names, from birth so the unsuspecting foreigners who go to the shop and think they look yummy and eat them raw, get removed from the gene pool. I wonder how many cases of death by toxic mushroom happen every year. The woolly milkcap above, a.k.a. Lactarius torminosus, is toxic if not parboiled before eating. I have to admit that its peach colour with furry texture wouldn't lead me to pick it and eat it without the onset of starvation. I think I'll stick with shopping in the grocery and eating only those things that I recognize and am sure won't kill me. :)

The Baltic herring market [note to port of helsinki webmaster: 20 lines of plaintext in a .doc format is really aggravating.] is coming soon so we should all prepare for the herring breath and seagulls. A friend who lives in LA composed a lovely poem one night on IRC about herring that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

I've decided to work with B&W film a bit more since I actually prefer it to colour film but the cost of developing it is mysteriously double the cost of developing other films. So, I'm going to start developing the film myself and use my cheap negative scanner for displaying them on the net. The equipment needed is actually pretty simple and the instructions from Ilford make it seem very hard to fuck up. I've always wanted to try developing film so why not? Hey, I'm a chemist, I should be able to manage this...I think. If anyone knows of the secret place where one can get development equipment and chemicals, aside from fotoyks, in a one-stop kind of shopping orgy, I'd be much obliged for any information leading to the stinking-up of our sauna-soon-to-be-darkroom.

Addendum: I was thinking why the varmints are called chiggers and went to look it up in the Dictionary of American Regional English and thought I'd share. :)

chigger n Pronc-spp cheeger, chego chigo(e), chigre, chigroe [Alter of Cariban chigoe] CFjigger Note: since both chigger and jigger are used of two similar tiny parasites, a mite (sense 1 below) which is widely distributed in the US, and a flea (sense 2 below) found chiefly in the South, there is overlapping both of the creatures' occucrrence and of the names, with some popular confusion.

1 A harvest mite (Trombicula spp.) Also called jigger,redbug

2 also chigoe flea: A flea (Tunga penetrans) that burrows into the skin. Also called jigger.

The first citation is from 1851 but I'm pretty sure the native Americans had a few choice words for them as well. It's interesting to note that the false belief that it 'burrows into the skin' remains even in the recent DARE definition.

Tree of death

Tree of death 09/14/2004 11:17 AM
David Pescovitz: Capsula Mundi is a design for a biodegradable coffin made from starch plastic that holds the deceased in a fetal position. The stunning artwork was created by Italian designers Anna Citelli and Raoul Bretzel:

"Capsula Mundi is planted in the earth like a seed. Above it, to signal the presence of occupied space, is a shallow concave circle dug out of the ground. In the center of which, a tree is planted, the essence of it chosen in life by the dead one, the care of this tree is the responsibility of everyone. The aim is ecological burial, literally a more natural way to decay.

The cemetery will, then, acquire a new look. No longer the overpopulated urban environment with congested architecture, it will be a natural one in contact with the earth, enveloping expansive areas, entire hills consecrated to the cult of the dead. Summarizing, it is a different landscape devoted to the worship of our ancestry: a sacred forest."

The Death of Environmentalism

The Death of Environmentalism 02/01/2005 09:04 PM

Some of you are probably wondering why I didn't follow through with my promise to publish my Green Movement Manifesto on ChangeThis!, the new and wildly popular site for the posting of manifestos and other lengthy and provocative 'thought pieces' on urgent and fundamental issues. There are two reasons: When I ran the Green Movement Manifesto by a number of people, the 'environmentalists' liked it, the progressives who don't have the environment at the top of their agenda were neutral to it, and the conservatives didn't like it at all. So I worried I was just preaching to the choir. When I went to ChangeThis! I found another manifesto called The Death of Environmentalism already there. As much as the title infuriated me, I read it and I basically agree with the authors. In light of their arguments, which I summarize below, the Green Movement Manifesto needs some serious work. The authors of The Death of Environmentalism, Michael Schellenberger and Ted Nordhaus, have worked for various environmental organizations most of their lives, and featured prominently in some of the environmental movement's greatest successes in the 1960s and 1970s, which brought in legislation that is only now being seriously undermined by Bush and others. They have taken a candid look at the almost uninterrupted history of failure of the movement since the mid-1970s -- thirty years -- and its increasing marginalization and inability to galvanize public opinion. Though you should read the whole 50-page manifesto, here's the gist of it: Support for environmental protection is broad but shallow -- the large majority believe it's a good thing to do, but very few list it in their 'top 10' priorities for needed change. The movement has erred by defining, in people's minds, the 'environment' as a thing, separate and apart from the human world. Framing problems as 'environmental' problems doesn't work since in most people's minds it has the effect of trivializing them, making them abstract and impersonal. Focusing political effort on technical remedies and tactics doesn't work -- it fails to engage people, provide a sense of urgency and immediacy to the problems, or define them as political, 'people' problems. As a result, the three mainstay activities of environmental organizations -- analysis, organization and PR -- are increasingly ineffective: In a world that is in a moral war over core values, our rational appeal to be good stewards of this 'other' thing called the environment just gets lost. The media therefore have largely stopped covering the movement, so radical environmentalists (PETA, ELF) have used anti-social acts as a means to get attention, and garnered some (mostly unfavourable) media coverage, while mainstream environmentalists have been unable to get any media coverage at all. While the environmental movement therefore blames the media (unfairly -- if the people don't care about the issue, why should the media?), the consequence of the invisibility of the mainstream movement has been that nearly half of Americans surveyed now agree that "most people active in environmental groups are extremists, not reasonable people." Environmentalists, who are rationalists at heart, have a propensity to be reductionist and stop their analysis at root causes: "The global warming problem is at root a carbon emissions problem, so we must have legislation to reduce these emissions", when what they should be doing is identifying the practical, real-world obstacles to achieving such legislation, and how to overcome these obstacles, such as: the control of all three branches of government in the US by the extreme right trade policies that undermine environmental protections their own failure to articulate an inspiring and positive vision overpopulation the influence of money in US politics failure to craft 'environmental' legislation that shapes the debate around core values poverty acceptance of dubious assumptions about what the real problem is, and isn't In 1991, the environmental movement stupidly agreed to withdraw its drive for a much-needed US fuel efficiency standard in return for an auto industry agreement to oppose drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (which is now likely to be drilled anyway) -- this was because of short-range, tactical thinking and mis-framing the debate as about 'protecting the environment' when it should have been framed as about salvaging the viability of the US auto industry. The movement has been too short-sighted and idealistic to form practical alliances: The #1 reason the US auto industry is less profitable than the Japanese industry is the exploding cost of health care, which in the US is paid for by the industry ($5B/year by GM alone), yet environmentalists have never considered helping the auto industry lobby for universal public health care in return for an agreement to raise fuel efficiency, because "health care isn't an environmental issue". So the movement is now in a quandary: It's focusing its effort on short-term, tactical efforts and technical solutions that it believes could be politically successful even in the current US political climate, while at the same time acknowledging that even if these quick fixes and incremental improvements succeed they will be far short of the change that is needed immediately to avert ecological catastrophe. The authors co-founded the New Apollo Project (which my fellow environmental blogger Richard Kahn criticized as idealistic) which they say provides an "inclusive and hopeful vision" and is at least an intelligent first step to get environmentalists out of the 'special interest' mold and into the practice of building win-win alliances -- and not just with other environmentalists and progressives. "It is our contention", they say, "that the strength of any given political proposal turns more on its vision for the future and the values it carries within it than on its technical policy specifications". The best way to achieve significant change in the environment is to focus less on regulation and more on investment: Encouraging planet-friendly investments siphons dollars away from polluting and wasteful investments. What especially backfires is environmentalists' PR focus on raising awareness of the problem: Bombarding the public with bleak news when they are desperately seeking reassurance and less to worry about (that's why I rarely report environmental set-backs and other bad news on this blog -- it doesn't accomplish anything). So: Vision and values first, and then build the movement and its agenda on that. In my Green Movement Manifesto I really started with the agenda for what I described as a coalition of the disenfranchised. That agenda was about communicating, teaching, recruiting, political (proportional representation), social (boycotts, think-tanks, demonstrations) and economic (tax shifts, new measures of well-being) activities, and creating Model Intentional Communities, new progressive media and Natural Enterprises. I used the term 'Green' instead of Environmental or Ecology because I thought it was more inclusive, more about us than just about it. Suppose we take a step back and describe the vision and values of the Green Movement first, and then review the agenda and see if it fits? Yesterday I produced what I believe to be a statement of universal human values: Happiness as a product of good Health, Home (including Environment, Belonging, Self-Sufficiency), Connection (Community, Relationships, Family, Love), Discovery (Learning, Creating, Forming Beliefs), Work, Peace (Freedom, Justice, Absence of Stress), Play, Awareness and Self-Esteem. I freely admit that these may not be the best terms, which, along with their organization have an implicit progressive 'frame' to them. But whether you want to combine Home and Connection into one core value (as environmentalists are wont to do), or elevate Family from an aspect of Home and Connection to a core value in its own right, I think you'll agree that this is a reasonable broad-brush summary of human values (and, if you're an environmentalist, of the values of all life on Earth). If we're going to build a Green Movement on values and vision, do we need to focus on or emphasize certain values, the ones that are currently least fulfilled by today's non-sustainable and devastating culture? The New Apollo Project report focuses on two values: good jobs (Work) and energy self-sufficiency (Self-Sufficiency being an aspect of Home). Its thesis is that two massive current problems in the US -- a lousy job market and energy dependence -- can be solved by a single set of solutions, a single agenda. That agenda is about encouraging investment in renewable energy innovation and development. Its side-benefits include Health, a better Environment, and greater security (Peace). But New Apollo is a project, not a movement. It seems to me a movement needs to be built on a strong and cohesive, relatively complete set of values. So I'm tempted to keep the entire set. We need of course to go beyond the 'shorthand' of these one-word terms and explain exactly what these values mean. So the first part of the Green Movement Manifesto should be about these values. We need to try to articulate their meaning and reinforce their universality by expressing them in new 'frames' that are compelling to all -- progressive and conservative, libertarian, environmentalist, fundamentalist and agnostic alike. No easy task. The next part, the Vision, will be easier. The vision is ultimately an achievable story in which the Values are realized and fully manifest. Hence, Manifesto. The key challenge here is to create a sense of urgency. The Vision needs to transport us into the realm of the possible, and make us long for its realization, ready and eager to be part of making it happen. Another challenge will be ensuring that a wide variety of people perceive the Vision to be achievable. We live in such a cynical society that it's become easy to shrug off our responsibility, and our lack of courage, by simply saying "It can't be done, so there's no point trying." An unachievable Vision is worse than no Vision, because it merely raises anxiety and brands its authors as hopeless idealists. The line between a vision that is too incremental, and one that is perceived to be impossible, is often a fine one. Is that enough for the Manifesto? While setting out the Agenda would certainly be beneficial -- it would show How the vision could be achieved -- it would also be controversial because, as I mentioned yesterday, the 'How' is extremely frame-dependent. My sense is that we're over-burdening the Manifesto by putting the Agenda in it. The Agenda is Stage Two. Besides, stories are subversive -- we may be able to use the Vision as a tool to allow people with different frames to see the 'Value(s)' of achieving the Vision -- and that Vision alone may be enough to get them thinking about other, imaginative ways to realize it -- changing their own frames. And there remains the problem of the name -- Green Movement. I like the name, because it's simple, visual, positive, instinctively resonant. It's also tailor-made as a brand, something people can associate with, call themselves, belong to, talk about, even wear (a woman I know makes unisex bracelets, and is intrigued by the idea of making something that Green Movement members could wear, give, share -- a conversation piece). And what's more, Green is neither Red nor Blue. But it does have associations with the Green Party, which, in North America at least, is associated with the left, with fringe thinking, and with single-issue politics. We need to think about whether on balance it's an asset or a liability, and if it's the latter we need another name. We also probably need a logo and a catchphrase. Why am I saying 'we'? Because tomorrow I'm going to present a draft of a new Green Movement Manifesto, with a Value statement, a Vision, and possibly a new name, logo and catchphrase. And no Agenda, at least yet. But I wouldn't presume that my draft will be more than something for the rest of us -- you -- to shoot at. If the Green Movement Manifesto is going to be enough to galvanize a billion or two people into thinking about, believing in, and striving for, a better, sustainable way to live, it's going to need an enormous amount of collaborative effort -- the Wisdom of Crowds, the Power of Many, and the Magic of the Collective Mind and Soul. From the ashes of Environmentalism we will build something new. So sharpen your critical and creative thinking, here we go!

Solar Death Ray

Solar Death Ray 03/22/2005 04:46 PM

Straight out of a (low-budget) Bond flick is the Solar Death Ray, a combination of particle board, 112 mirrors and, of course, Sol. Each of the mirrors are pointed towards one area, focusing the sun's rays onto a target easily heated up to 930-1100 degrees Fahrenheit. The project page contains bunches of science facts and enough instruction to build your own, Popular Science style. In all seriousness, though, watching it melt through some of the "targets" in their gallery is a bit disconcerting as I imagine hundreds of maladjusted youth attempting to build their own as an easy yet tragic way to score a new cat.

Claim here.” First of all, this is a lie, I have not been selected as a winner. Secondly, it hurts my eyes. Any Web site that runs this ad will receive no more visits from me, it is way, way, way beyond the bounds of what’s acceptable.

After 14 years of highly successful nationwide tours that began the trend of the multi-stage, summer super rock fest, Lollapalooza 2004 has been cancelled due to low ticket sales. I went to a 1991 show, and attended half a dozen other similar fests in the past ten years, but as I've gotten older I've become a bigger fan of the intimate club vs. the gigantic rock festival. Still, Lollapalooza being cancelled comes as a shock, especially considering the stellar line-up on both stages.

the death of lincoln. Originally from June 1865. "The murder of President Lincoln aroused a feeling of regret deeper than was ever before known in our history. Men and papers who had opposed his policy and vilified him personally, now vied with his adherents and friends in lauding the rare wisdom and goodness which marked his conduct and character." Hmmmm... sounds familiar.
