Metabolic Dark City: Observatory: Design Observer

by karlcow

In 1993, the City of Darkness, or the Walled City of Kowloon, was demolished. To the 35,000 people living in this dense urban slum, the change was the end of a lawless existence. The area was a diplomatic black hole, the model of an anarchist society somehow allowed to grow organically without the aid of any government, existing somewhere outside of both British Hong Kong and China.

The buildings of "Hak Nam" folded into one other in a dense configuration of labyrinthine corridors and seedy brown shacks stacked up 10, 12 and 14 stories high. It was a solid building, 200 x 100 meters, a pulsating anomaly, one of the most densely populated places in the world at the time of its destruction. It was called "the world’s first flexible megastructure, the closest thing to a truly self-regulating, self-sufficient, self determining modern city that has ever been built," "an environment as richly varied and as sensual as anything in the heart of the tropical forest."

VIDEO: Le plus grand rassemblement de femmes rousses

by Noel Basile
VIDEO: Le plus grand rassemblement de femmes rousses Le plus grand rassemblement de femmes rousses a eu lieu ce week-end à Breda aux Pays-Bas pour la quatrième année consécutive. Un meeting qui selon son organisateur, l'artiste Bart Rouwenhorst, veut redonner aux rousse leur fierté... après tant d'années, voire de siècles, de railleries et de méchanceté dues à leur différence. La femme rousse fut souvent montrée du doigt pour sa couleur de cheveux, son odeur, "sa laideur", ses liens possibles avec le diable, mais aussi parce qu'on ne retrouve qu'une minorité seulement de femmes à la crinière rousse dans le monde, parmi tant d'autres brunes ou blondes. Actuellement, à peine 1 pour cent seulement de la population mondiale a les cheveux roux, et ce chiffre a tendance à s'amenuiser. C'est pourquoi il n'y avait pas de temps à perdre pour les quelques 3 femmes rousses venues de 36 pays pour cette 4ème Journée mondiale des cheveux roux à Breda, aux Pays-Bas. Mais il n'y a pas que les mythes, il y a aussi les études scientifiques. Selon le Pr Werner Habermehl spécialiste de la sexualité au Centre de recherche social de l'Université de Hambourg, les femmes rousses font statistiquement plus l'amour que les brunes ou les blondes. Phénomène que la psychologue française Christine Baumanns explique par le fait que lorsque des hommes voient une rousse, ils estiment qu'ils toutes ses chances de l'emballer et qu'au lit, avec ces femmes chaudes, se sera du tonnerre de feu de dieu ! Croyance que les Rousses n'ont pas intérêt à démentir, vue leur cote à la bourse des valeurs sexy féminines.

Seppukoo » About

by gregg
“This is the end. My only friend, the end.” You are more than your virtual identity «Virtual life» is an - often - abused term used to describe the whole of one person online activities. But as media communications let our second/online/offline identities overflowing into real life - and vice-versa - the distinctions between the real and the virtual are becoming, more and more confused. Which is virtual? And where's the real? Beyond all those questions only a fact remains: that our privacy, our profiles, our identities, our relationships, they are all - fake and/or real - entirely exploited for a sole purpose: to be sold as a product. But are those lives really worth to be experienced?

Javascript & Web Design - Tous les jours le meilleur des ressources Javascript pour intégrateurs web front-end (avec parfois un soupçon de PHP)

by eledo34 & 2 others
"Si les fondations du design web sont constituées de HTML et de CSS, il faut reconnaitre qu’il est de plus en plus difficile de se passer de Javascript et des frameworks comme jQuery. C’est pourquoi je propose aux webdesigners et aux intégrateurs web un lien Javascript chaque jour (ou presque). Mon choix se portera plus particulièrement sur les développements préservant la séparation de la forme et du fond (oui ça veut dire non-intrusif) dans la droite ligne des bonnes pratiques HTML et CSS. Du Javascript, oui mais pas n’importe comment !"

Mailinator(tm) Blog: Your own private Mailinator

by ycc2106
In truth - Mailinator accepts ANY email you fling at it***. In other words - you can setup your OWN personal domains simply by setting your MX record (i.e. through your registrar or DNS server) to point your mail delivery to Mailinator! Simply put - if you own dinkybutt.com, you can simply change that domain's MX record to point to mail.mailinator.com and all email you send to dinkybutt.com (i.e. stinkywinky@dinkybutt.com) will then end up in Mailnator.

Ten Rules for Being Human by Cherie Carter-Scott

by greut & 2 others
  1. You will receive a body. You may like it or hate it, but it's yours to keep for the entire period.
  2. You will learn lessons. You are enrolled in a full-time informal school called, "life."
  3. There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work."
  4. Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson.
  5. Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned.
  6. "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here."
  7. Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself.
  8. What you make of your life is up to you. You have all the tools and resources you need. What you do with them is up to you. The choice is yours.
  9. Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust.
  10. You will forget all this.

High Pages/Sec & Disk Transfers/sec, in the Citrix XenApp / Presentation Server forum on BrianMadden.com

by night.kame

BTW, Just a small rant... The Notes back end is way better than exchange. We were running 2000 users on One domino server with no issues. We have invested in 10 servers for outlook and over a mil in emc consulting. Personally I’m dumfounded at the decision to switch.

Oui mais Exchange c'est top : en plus des problèmes de performance côté serveur, on a les mêmes côté client avec cette bouse d'Outlook !
