9/11 tragedy pager intercepts.

The following are national US pager intercepts that cover the September 11 tragedy from 3am on the same day (Tuesday) until 3am the following day.

Due to popular demand we provide a new block of pager data every 5 minutes, synchronized to the actual time of day the message was sent.

This way the world has a chance to objectively see how the tragedy progressed.

A full archive containing all the messages will be released on Thursday November 26 at the conclusion.

NOAA today released the World Ocean Database 2009, the largest, most comprehensive collection of scientific information about the oceans with records dating as far back as 1800. This product is part of the climate services provided by NOAA.

This imaginative and insightful approach got me thinking about a related problem I’ve been keen to address for some time: data entry. How can we use paper as a more effective channel for information flow during and after humanitarian emergencies?

t work we have to manage a ton of Django based sites. Just for our World Company sites, we have over 50 different settings files, and this doesn't take into account the sites that we host for other clients. At this size it becomes basically impossible to test each site in a browser when you push things to production. To solve this problem I have written a very basic server description tool. This allows you to describe sites (settings file, python path, url, etc.) and servers.

The suggested URI pattern is based on the distinction between non-information resources (abstract or concrete real-world objects), generic resources, and their representations. Generic resources are Web documents describing the abstract object they are associated with (e.g., a Dewey class). The pattern for generic documents defined in the current pool of Dewey URIs is as follows:

We're seeing a lot of action in the key/value map/reduce world lately. On the one hand this is because simpler stuff scales more simply, and on the other because key/value and B-Tree stores map cleanly to some fundamental algorithms.

And so for 20 years now these folks --- *the* shining lights, in many ways, of "practical" programming language, operating systems, and general systems research --- have continued to fail to "get" the fundamental practical needs of everyday programmers working in The Real World.

The CLOUD proposes an entirely new form of observation deck,connecting visitors to both the whole of London and the whole of the world, immersing them in euphoric gusts of weather and digital data. Each individual footstep on the ascent to the CLOUD participates in a vast collective energy-harvesting effort. Everyone around the world can contribute to the Cloud - whether by visiting or by sponsoring an LED, helping to keep the London lamp aflame.
