WL-16 Biped Wheel Chair Chair
12/02/2003 12:25 AMNewScientist says that Japanese researchers have created the first two
legged
walking robot that can carry a person It's probably not correct
to call it a wheel chair. The bipedal (two legged) chair
called the
WL-16 can walk smoothly even if the person in the chair
shifts. The
WL-16
has 12 actuators for going forward, backward, or side to side. The
researchers hope to
make the robot someday go up and down stairs (safely). This could be
the new thing in (for lack of a better term) wheel chairs. However,
if it were to step on your foot with it's big flat feet, you might
tend to disagree.

Letter to Thomas Kean from Sibel Edmonds
Letter to Thomas Kean from Sibel Edmonds
08/02/2004 10:52 PM
On July 21 Jim Hough posted the transcript of a radio interview
with Sibel Edmonds on AxisofLoic.
Jim Hogue
F
ormer FBI Translator Sibel Edmonds Calls Current 9/11 Investigation
InadequateINTRODUCTION: Sibel Edmonds and Behrooz Sarshar,
beginning in December of 2001, began filing reports to their superiors
at the FBI. These reports could lead to the collapse of a corrupt
power structure that has a stranglehold on the very institutions that
are obligated to control it. We cannot excuse these institutions, for
while they fiddle, they pass death sentences on their own troops, and
on the people of Afghanistan and Iraq.
On April 30th, Sibel Edmonds was my guest for 50 minutes on WGDR
radio. What follows is an edited transcript of the interview. The
editing is for the sake of a more readable piece.
Sibel Edmonds is a former FBI translator. She blew the whistle on
the cover-up of intelligence that names some of the culprits who
orchestrated the 9/11 attacks. These culprits are protected by the
Justice Department, the State Department, the FBI, the White House and
the Senate Judiciary Committee. They are foreign nationals and
Americans. Ms. Edmonds is under two gag orders that forbid her to
testify in court or mention the names of the people or the countries
involved.
Aparently Edmonds has not been able to get this
message out and has written a letter to Thomas Kean, the Chairman of
the 9/11 Commission.
August 1, 2004
[...]
Dear Chairman Kean:
[snip]
Unfortunately, I find your report seriously flawed in its failure to
address serious intelligence issues that I am aware of, which have
been confirmed, and which as a witness to the commission, I made you
aware of. Thus, I must assume that other serious issues that I am not
aware of were in the same manner omitted from your report.
[snip]
Considering what is at stake, our national security, we are
entitled to demand answers to unanswered questions, and to ask for
clarification of issues that were ignored and/or omitted from the
report.
I just
che
cked on Google News and there isn't much about this letter yet.
I'm interested to see how the mass media picks this up and whether
they dig into this accusation of a massive cover-up.
Thanks to Richard for
the tip

Chair Fix
Chair Fix
06/18/2004 08:01 AM
Oh,
this is lovely, for real. I have a dirty secret. I recently discovered
Ikea, and as someone who has lived their life spending the bulk of
their money on gadgets and software, it was pleasing to know that I
could purchase crappy pressboard furniture that actually looked sort
of stylish, if only for a week or two before it starts to flake away.
So this Chair Fix is like Ikea but even better, because it not only is
made of relatively sturdy plywood (I'm so hard to impress, aren't I?),
but it can be assembled without that little hex wrench -- no screws,
just a few whacks with a mallet. Plus you can paint the board to your
liking before popping out the pieces, and then have a matching piece
of artwork for your chair.

New Jakarta Chair
New Jakarta Chair
02/19/2004 10:16 AM
Yesterday, the
Apache Software
Foundation's
Board of
Directors appointed Geir Magnusson Jr. as the new chair of the
Jakarta
Project
Management Committee. I will remain on the PMC as well as
the board.
I was appointed as the chair
just under three years ago after having served as the release
manager for both Ant and
Tomcat.
For the
past year, I have been actively seeking a replacement.
The reason is simple: while at first, I had an itch that needed
scratching and I sought to make a number of good things happen,
over time those itches were scratched and my role evolved into one
of stopping bad things from happening (project members misbehaving,
addressing criticisms from within the foundation, etc.).
Focusing exclusively on defense is not a sustainable model: there
also need to be a focus on building.
In
addition to Geir and my world views being very much aligned, Geir
is also the ASF's representative to the JSPA's SE/EE
Executive Committee.
