Accusations of fraud and deceit are flying around the construction project in Piazza Ghiberti. What was supposed to be a four-story underground parking lot will now be half the size, with just over half the capacity--for the same price, 10 million euro.
To date, eight people have been indicted for abuse of office and fraud, including former director of Firenze Parcheggi, Luigi Di Renzo, several project technicians, managers, architects, entrepreneurs and a municipal employee. A trial is scheduled for February 3, 2009.
Contractors halted the project after discovering massive underground rocks on the site. Too large to remove or destroy, the rocks were left, and the project was scaled back by two floors to yield 371 parking spots instead of the 624 originally planned.
Nokia sells about half the GSM phones in the world, last time I looked. It is the bread and butter of a whole European country - Finland. I cannot see Apple making significant headway with their first product in that market - regardless of the price.
you might realize that this is pretty much an updated version of the Minitel
Minitel was introduced in 1982, to replace dead-tree phone books. Pre-internet, France had already converted their population to online lookups, chat rooms, soft pron, pay-as-you-use. The walled gardens of AOL, Compuserve, Prodigy left Minitel in the dust, and a year later there was Internet.
Tom Lord, of Gnu Arch fame, feels he has been run roughshod over by Canonical. Blogging On Esther Dyson's flickr page, he also says:- It's all well and good for Mark to want to build a business leveraging open source but, where does he think the innovations come from? A hard but important problem for open source businesses, in my opinion, is to find out how to reinforce and create incentives for useful, upstream R&D yet, in this case, the exact opposite occurred.
On the same blog, Alan Levin asks how such entrepreneurs can change the world. It is hard to give - sometimes harder than taking. In Africa, it is about transfer of ownership - can you persuade the recipient that you are not wasting their time ?

I heard that cancer was the oldest disease, and the careful countdown of cell generations from stem cells was precisely to keep the wart on the frogs bum from taking over the frog. Once you have licked cancer, the rest becomes manageable.
Wizzy Digital Courier is a system that allows internet (email, web scrapes, anything that will move via UUCP) to be delivered - from a place that has conventional access to an isolated system or network. Some pretty pictures for you. The price point moves down to zero, with someone helpful upstream. Bandwidth is not too bad either - a USB stick can hold a lot more than you can transfer using dialup.
I had an interview at a radio station in Cape Town recently. The program cueing software there ran (on a huge 26 inch screen or something) Windows95. It wasn't network connected, the OS got fully out the way of the application - I couldn't fault them.
I gather that only a few TLD registrars are contracted to pay ICANN -.jp and.au being among them. Most of the others also pay, but voluntarily. Recently,.ca (Canada) has decided to stop paying, and.jp and.au are wondering why they are the only ones actually contracted.
Microwave ovens use 2450 MHz because it's in the ISM band.
Microwave ovens used 2.4Gig well before anyone had thought of an ISM band. The ISM band is there because nobody else wants to use a frequency occupied by microwave ovens.
Wizzy Digital Courier puts down an affordable internet connection, with a complete remote installation of wikipedia (1Gig database, 14Gig pictures) in schools in South Africa.

Thanks. I don't seem able to edit or delete my comment?
Title of article is wrong. No reimbursements were made. Read TFA

Pluto's orbit is highly inclined relative to the ecliptic (over 17 degrees). Wikipedia waves hands and says Illinois is 40N. You are right ?

Yes, you are right.

I have never changed the basic underlying format - MH - Rand Mail Handler, one file per mail, in a directory, numbered.
I used to use mh, then nmh, then xmh. Nowadays I use mutt. Evolution will handle mh format, but it is slow.
Shameless plug
