Coast Guard Adventure; a new Coastie site | CGBlog.org
Posted on 7 August 2009 by Ryan Erickson It’s Friday! And what better way to get the weekend going than plugging another great Coast Guard site? As its been awhile since we’ve profiled another Coast Guard related website here on CGBlog I thought I’d share one I’ve been watching for a few months now… so I guess it’s not really “new.” The site, Coast Guard Adventure, is maintained by an active duty Coastie stationed up in Port Clarence, Alaska.

Woman Receives First Ever PhD in Texting | Discoblog | Discover Magazine
For many people, texting serves as a useful tool. But for British student Caroline Tagg, a study of text-messaging earned her a PhD. That’s right, Dr. Tagg now has a doctorate of philosophy in texting—the first of its kind. To earn the degree, Tagg spent nearly four years studying a total of 11,000 text messages containing 190,000 words and sent by 235 people, all of which she compiled and analyzed in a database. The Telegraph reports: [Tagg] discovered that people text in the same way as if th... (more)

August 6, 2009 4:00 AM PDT by Elinor Mills If you're a criminal and you want to break into a network, a common attack method is to exploit a hole in software that exists on most computers, has its fair share of holes, and isn't automatically updated. In 2002, that would have been Windows. Today, it's likely to be Adobe Reader or Flash Player, whose share of vulnerabilities and exploits are on the rise while Microsoft's is falling. Nearly half of targeted attacks exploit holes in Acrobat Reader... (more)

Not Your Father's Float Plan | MadMariner.com
Boating safety authorities agree: you should create a float plan, and you should leave copies with trusted friends or family members. "We're going cruising in the islands for a couple of weeks" does not constitute a float plan. The information must be comprehensive. These days, float plan management goes well beyond a paper itinerary and the occasional telephone call. Social networking websites, such as Twitter and Facebook, properly used, can augment a traditional float plan. They can providing folks... (more)

Lapping Lathe Ways

Lapping Lathe Ways
Lapping Lathe Ways    I had some ‘slop’ in my crossfeed slide which prevented me from simultaneously having a smooth cross slide which was also stable.  The back right corner tended to left up when cutting, which allowed the front right (e.g. where the cutting tool is) to dip; this caused chatter.   It was very frustrating to have to constantly adjust the gib screws to either lock the cross slide or reduce the gib friction to allow movement. I saw the Mike Taglieri Procedure o... (more)
