Xeni Jardin: BoingBoing reader TabulaRasa in Germany says,

In the late 1980s, the Russians tried to develop their own Space Shuttle. Well, actually -- one even ended up flying into space just one time -- "Buran". After this flight, the hangar where it was housed in Baikonur collapsed and destroyed the craft.

This is an online photo gallery of "Buran 002", another prototype that was sold to an Australian businessman named David Hammer. During the Olympic Games in Sydney, the prototype was part of an exhibition. Then it was sold to a company in Singapore, and was shipped to Bahrain, where it became stranded somewhere in the desert.

Eventually it was sold to a German museum, and will soon be shipped one last time -- to become part of an exhibition. Some things are still working, as you can see from the photos in this online image gallery. Guess I'll have make a visit to this museum when the shuttle has arrived!

One day, you're giving a presentation to an important audience, and you know that you need to lower the volume on your Mac. What you don't know is that the technical staff in charge of setting up your presentation rig have left all external speakers on their maximum volume. You press the volume lowering key on your keyboard, and an enormously loud popping sound blows every speaker, and renders your entire audience deaf (either momentarily or permanently). How do you avoid this travesty in the future? Let's find out! Update: A few tips from our loyal and generous fans have been added. Thanks!

HotSpotVPN.com Expands POPs

HotSpotVPN.com Expands POPs 11/03/2003 05:54 PM
HotSpotVPN.com, a virtual private networking service provider with individual accounts, has added three regional VPN clusters: I had a chance to meet the company's founder, Glynn Taylor, during a spin through Seattle that he made on the rainiest day in history here (5.01 inches in 24 hours). Needless to say, his broughams got soaked. Taylor's model is to offer a very inexpensive VPN connection -- $8.88 per month -- for the millions of business travels who don't have the luxury of a corporate-operated VPN service back to their network. HotSpotVPN.com uses the PPTP standard, and allows a fully secure encrypted connection between any PPTP client-equipped computer or handheld and their servers. The addition of three clusters in California, Florida, and Virginia, on top of their existing Washington, D.C., servers, means that traffic should run even faster for existing and new clients closer in Internet topology to those areas. (Full disclosure: HotSpotVPN.com has been an advertiser in the past. I'm a big fan of this services model, however, and I expect that Taylor will face more competition as he moves forward.)...

"The most intriguing story in Washington these days is a subterranean conflict that reporters cannot cover because some of them are involved. A potent guerrilla insurgency has formed in and around the Bush presidency - a revolt of old pros in government who strike from the shadows with devastating effect. They tell the truth. They explode big lies. They provide documentary evidence..." - William Greider, on what could prove to be one of the defining power struggles of our time. Through a lens darkly, yes. But deniable ? - not plausibly. As gossip, growing louder now, the shadow-war advances. Unstoppably? No.

Ernie Ball (RIP)

Ernie Ball (RIP) 09/10/2004 12:45 PM
David Pescovitz: It's a sad week in music instrument history. Fir st, the death of Donald Leslie. And yesterday, pioneer guitar string maker Ernie Ball gave up the ghost at just 74. Ernie Ball's strings are as ubiquitous in rock and roll as Fender guitars. According to the Associated Press, Ball developed his first strings in 1962 after "complaints from customers (at his guitar shop) that they couldn't find lighter-gauge, flexible strings for their rock 'n' roll instruments." Shortly after, the Slinkys were born. And, well, the guitar solo has never been the same. Link (Thanks, Vann)
