I'd like to share a few observations:
1) Rosie O'Donnell is a fat retard w/ money and enablers
2) Al Gore is a fat retard w/ money and enablers
3) Jesse Jackson is a retarded racist w/ money and enablers
4) Ditto Al Sharpton and members of CAIR
5) John Edwards is a closet gay (not that there's anything wrong with that)
6) NY's governor Eliot Spitzer is a thuggish bully, pure and simple
7) Liberals will ruin this country
8) Fred Thompson will be elected the next president and fore go the above observation for eight years
9) Muslims who refuse to assimilate need to be deported posthaste
10) Eli Manning and the NY Giants will win the next Superbowl
11) What..this isn't the drinking thread? my bad...[slinks off and hangs head in embarrassment]

On my side bar list of favorites, LGF used to be designated by a ittle green football. Since the new ajax system updates, however, the logo on the side bar has changed. It now resembles a sight on a scoped rifle or (more sinisterly, St. George's cross, as the lines are in red. Can anyone explain this to me? Are we now in a crusader mode? Are we targeting residents, symbolically, of LLL? Are we drawing a bead on idiotarians?
Also, saw an earlier thread from yesterday where the submitter stated that Jews worked for education, whilst Moslems worked for hatred. I believe a good explanation of this is found in how the sacred texts of both are considered. For Moslems, it was written by their god and not a word can be changed. There is no way that the quran can be updated or modified. Compare this to the study of the Torah, where people labor over exactly what the passage meant and what it means. One looks forward, while the other stagnates. Gee, i wonder which is which?

re: #21 rightismight

Some of us have relatives and friends who are mentally retarded. To use that term as a descriptor of a handicapping condition is perfectly fine, because there is no shame in it.

To use it as a slur and as a derogatory term implies that there IS shame in it. It is also unfair to the retarded to be grouped with the likes of Rosie . Please refrain from using the word 'retard' in that way. It makes you look, well, you know.

Thank you.

You know what's weird? While you could use that term on my son, I never think of him in those words. It's always "brain damaged", "disabled." Never retarded. That word actually doesn't get enough across, in my opinion.

Trust me, Mama, every day is a reminder caring for him. So it's not going to change reality. I usually don't even remember the day, until later I realize and it all makes sense. The same thing used to happen on the anniversary of my mother's death. But that hasn't been an issue for decades now.

Despite being a handful, he can be quite a sweety. Anytime I feel bad he always wants to give me a backrub; if he wants to get me to read to him and I complain about the dishes, he wheels in there to help dry while I wash!

Just a quick drive by. For those that haven't been over to Blackfive you need to go check out the little exchange going on between a former state dept employee who was in Iraq and Michael Yon that is being referred by Uncle Jimbo.
The case of the aiman who was shot and psoted over here is now on Instapundit.
And last, in cruising around the liberal blogs I found this little description of the attempted terrorist attacks in England.

On the other side of the world, a group of Muslim doctors in Great Britain staged two amateurish acts of political theater which experts have said would likely have caused little real loss of life (had not one of them managed to set fire to himself. The result? The news media here at home stages a three ring circus of terra.

So that is all it was, political theater, you know like the guys in orange jumpsuits protesting against Gitmo. I won't reveal the site but is the persons' screen name

My son isn't quite that hard. We can actually leave him home alone for an hour and he's pretty good. The rules are he can't answer the phone or the door, but he's been known to go outside and get the mail when he isn't supposed to! We've even tried to disable his wheelchair, but he's figured out how to reconnect the power, even.

Usually he sleeps through the night, unless he kicks the covers off. He used to yell every night whenever he would drop his Bible out of bed (he has to sleep with it, you see). So we worked out a way to use a bungie cord and keep it in bed with him. :D

When he goes to camp, that's our respite. We'd like to get something more, but we've never found anyone that we're really comfortable leaving him with for extended periods.

The daughter misses her brother, even though he doesn't believe it.

Live Earth venues featured aboriginal elders, chimpanzee calls from scientist Jane Goodall, a holographic Gore and more than 100 of the biggest names in music - including Bon Jovi, Smashing Pumpkins and The Police.

The concerts were backed by Gore, whose campaign to force global warming onto the international political stage inspired the event. Musicians and celebrities at each show encouraged fans to take little steps, such as not leaving electrical devices plugged in when not in use and changing to low-energy light bulbs.

Fifty bucks for a beer? It was Livid Earth in Sydney

Out front, Crowded House were getting reacquainted, Missy Higgins made a cameo with Paul Kelly, and a beamed message from the "former next president of the United States", Al Gore, told the 45,000-strong throng they had the power to halt climate change.

But out back, where revellers go to buy their fluids and to get rid of them, and where big events often live or die, there was a different kind of drought. Faced with record beer queues, thirsty fans at Saturday's Live Earth concert at Sydney's Aussie Stadium were seen by the Herald offering others $50 for their beer rather than wait an hour to buy refreshments.

Thousands, deprived of the traditional rock 'n' roll accompaniment, went to a Coca-Cola stand, forgetting that its manufacturers had been under fire in India for allegedly creating water shortages and pollution around their bottling facilities.

Scores were seen leaving within the first two hours of the nine-hour festival, fed up with the lack of basic services, cutting their losses on a $99 ticket. Gate attendants were heard telling the human tide that they should complain to the promoter.

It was "unAustralian", one spectator protested. "This is what happens when you let hippies organise a big event," another said. One woman, asked by Missy Higgins "how you all are back there", earned a wry round of applause from the stands when she shouted: "Sober."

But Rina Ferris, a spokeswoman for the event's promoters, Michael Chugg and Mark Pope, said neither the venue nor the promoter had received a single complaint. And queues and sobriety were not enough to prevent the global party from being a roaring success for those who stuck it out until the dying strains of Crowded House.

Squads of pamphleteers handed out tips - on recycled paper - about tackling climate change. The stadium's hoardings were covered with the event's "seven pledges" for improving our carbon footprint.

Police charged 19 people with drug offences.

The Sydney event was one of eight Live Earth concerts. . The others were in Tokyo, Shanghai, Hamburg, London, Johannesburg, New York and Rio de Janeiro, with a token gig in Antarctica.

In Britain, organisers had to explain Madonna's participation after the US Fox News Network revealed her links to some of the world's biggest polluters. Her Ray of Light Foundation has $US4.2 billion of shares in companies such as the aluminium giant Alcoa, the Ford Motor Company and Weyerhaeuser, a forest products company.

Kevin Wall, the founder of Live Earth, told London's Sunday Telegraph: "Madonna is here today, which shows her commitment. Today we're not focusing on what she or any of the artists may have done in their past; it is about the future."

Greenpeace criticised the German leg of the concerts because the carmaker DaimlerChryslerhad been chosen as a sponsor.

Terror debate raises stark views

"A Stealth bomber in Iraq is the moral equivalent of a suicide bomber in Scotland".

That was the message of Aamer Anwar, a leading human rights lawyer, during a BBC Scotland programme entitled "Scotland After the Bomb".

Sharp intakes of breath as well as rounds of applause could be heard as he gave his views during the debate, which drew a studio audience from across the UK.
...
He said: "There is no justification for the murder of innocent people. The US and Israel, however, are equal to any 9/11 hijacker.
...
He added that it was a myth that there was an inclusive, multicultural Scotland as many young Muslim felt alienated by the prevalent culture of "binge drinking and Big Brother".

Today's UN scandal update.

The next round in the investigation of the United Nations Development Program’s scandal-tainted operations in North Korea is about to begin.

The question is whether it will be any more successful than the original probe in getting a clear picture of a UNDP program that the U.S. government, among others, charges was hijacked by the communist government of Kim Jong Il and funneled millions in UNDP hard currency into North Korea’s nuclear weapons program.

Looks like North Korea is being replaced by Iran who had replaced Iraq.

That was the message of Aamer Anwar, a leading human rights lawyer

Here's Aamer Anwar and how he really feels:

Overall, the March was pretty passive. There didn't appear to be much angry emotion expressed. The only exception was a small group of young Muslim youths led by activist Aamer Anwar who was whipping them up with his bullhorn alternatively shouting "Tony Blair" or "George Bush", to which the Muslim youths yelled "Terrorist, terrorist". He also shouted "Victory to", with the response from the crowd, "Intifada, Intifada".

The only drama of the entire march came around 1pm when Anwar took the group down a side road leading to the entrance to the SECC, which was not intended for Marchers. Police rushed to block it, and for a moment it looked like there might be some argy-bargy.

The Police pulled Anwar out, and told him to turn the marchers around. Anwar, having got his moment of publicity, told them all to turn back, which they duly did. End of the excitement.

its not for everyone, i agree - and i'm no linux zealot. i understand that people have different needs. but if you just want to get work done - like blogging., emails, web design, i'd go for it.

I suggested reviving the comment-replied-to link as a way of keeping continuity, but I may be a little previous in suggesting it. I offer it merely as a possibility to keep in mind, if the rhythm of the conversation ends up getting too quippy.

Not that I mind quippy, of course. But it would be a shame if the comments became <blockquote>nothing but links and one-liners</blockquote>.

More specifically:

kdump
sr/bin/kdump displays the kernel trace files produced with ktrace in human readable format.

kextcache
sr/sbin/kextcache creates or updates kext caches, which are used to speed up kernel extension loading operations and to prepare kexts for inclusion in such media as device ROM.

kextload
bin/kextload can be used to explicitly load kernel extensions, validate them to see that they can be loaded by other mechanisms, such as kextd, and to generate symbol files for debugging the kext in a running kernel.

I didn't suspect it, but it makes total sense. At the application level, Mac OS is pretty bulletproof, but journaling is a very low-level function--and if a number overflows a machine register in a device driver the kernel just might panic like this.
