A typo has the Sudanese government freaking out. According to a D.O.D. document, we tested nukes in Sudan between 1962-70.
It should have read Sedan (Nevada).

More amusing, when you consider that Iran’s nuclear facility is in a city called Arak… now, imagine an aide telling the President that Arak had a nuclear test site oh about 2 years ago……..?? Hmmmmm ![]()
A movie this fatuous deserves a fatuous review title.
I expected more from this film, given its good reviews. I wanted to like this film, thinking that it would resonate a little more than it did. Unfortunately, it was flat, bombastic, and disappointing.
Been a long series of days. Monday night - working until 8:45, Tuesday - got home around 1. Believe it or not, it was all work related and seriously paid off when in a room with another company’s COO today. Every question that was asked - we had already discussed and agreed on an answer and plan to make it happen.
I may actually need to make a follow up trip to the UK to kick butt and take names, but we’ll see.
But that’s why there haven’t been many recent updates.
Thanks to Jason for his help, in the end the gshield config was almost exactly what we needed.
[code]
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
# Feb 25 13:40:30 bashful kernel: firewall: IN=eth0 OUT= MAC=00:0e:b6:69:a8:c7:12:54:4f:dc:b4:1c:08:00

$event = ‘iptables’;
$sender = $src;
$recipient = $dst;
$value1 = $dpt;

}
}
};
[/code]
And an example:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
#Simple Script to monitor syn attacks.
$syn_alert=15;
$hostname=`hostname`;
chomp($hostname);
$num_of_syn=`netstat -an | grep -c SYN`;
if($num_of_syn > $syn_alert){`netstat -an | grep SYN | mail -s “SYN ATTACK DETECTED ON $hostname” admin@yourcompany.com`;
}else
{}exit;
For the Home Theater in the basement, here’s what I chose:
Speakers - Onkyo SKS-HT240
Receiver - Denon 2805 (pdf)
Projector - Panasonic AE700
Screen, mounting bracket, etc. came in a kit with the projector from Projector Solutions.
I watched The Motorcycle Diaries a couple days ago. From the IMDB summary:
“The Motorcycle Diaries is an adaptation of a journal written by Ernesto Guevara (Bernal) when he was 23 years old. He and his friend, Alberto Granado (de la Serna) are typical college students who, seeking fun and adventure before graduation, decide to travel across Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Peru in order to do their medical residency at a leper colony. Beginning as a buddy/road movie in which Ernesto and Alberto are looking for chicks, fun and adventure before they must grow up and have a more serious life. As is said in the film itself, it’s about “two lives running parallel for a while.” The two best friends start off with the same goals and aspirations, but by the time the film is over, it’s clear what each man’s destiny has become.”
It’s in Spanish with english subtitles, and it’s a really good movie. I hadn’t realized who Ernesto Guevara was and why this is such a controversal movie until the end.
You can view the trailer here.
It also is making current news:
LOS ANGELES - “Al otro lado del rio” (On the Other Side of the River), from “The Motorcycle Diaries” took best original song at the Oscars Sunday night, marking the first time a Spanish song has won the award.
