Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[Geekswithblogs.net] Brian Loesgen's Blog: A lot of people are. I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of my old friends, fellow INETA folks, fellow authors, fellow speakers, and a whole lot of other folks starting in another day (yeah, I meant to post something a week ago, but have been slammed with TechEd prep and client obligations). Next week will be intense for me, with INETA (ineta.org) planning and Board meetings, the INETA user group leader conference we’re hosting, the regional UG meeting I’m hosting on Tues (see SanDiegoDotNet.com), speaking at TechEd, and what seems like an continual stream of meetings and parties.
[Myweb.tiscali.co.uk] New Page 1: This does not at all mean I am not spiritual, or that I don't believe there may not be some supernatural figure behind it all somewhere; science does not pretend to provide ultimate answers on that, but I do understand evolution, and after reading some of the greats like Darwin, Dawkins, Attenborough and Desmond Morris, I realise what a beautifully efficient mechanism we are part of. I see mankind as part of life on earth, and understand that we are closely related to all our fellow animals, and to all life on earth. As far as 'gods' are concerned I cannot see a better analogy than common parent for all life on earth, Mother Nature, and Old Father Time. These two embody all of the ideas seen in other religions, and the fact is that we do all come from common ancestors, so it is based in fact. Gaia theory is also of interest, as it helps us understand that we are products of, and shapers of, our environment. We are part of a huge complex system that is life on earth, and that is fact, not fiction. As far as religion goes, I can see that there have been some backwards steps taken in my lifetime, and in that the teachers of our children must take responsibility. It is their job to understand and explain the wonders of our world that have been interpreted in the past, and explain them to the next generation, and in this they appear to some extent to have failed. So, to remind you good people out there of what a magnificent place we live in, I've added a small graphic showing some of the wondrous variety of life that has evolved with us, and some of the beauty of the larger universe of which we are part of. Most folks coming here will already be scientists or philosophers in some respect, but its always worthwhile remembering why and what we are fighting for. If in doubt, take a walk in the closest bit of wild countryside you can find. Its always a revelation.
[Frassle.net] Brian Loesgen's Blog - frassle: In addition, I'd like to thank the hard-working folks who worked with me on the Events Committee, and all our other volunteers for their support. This could not have happened without all the time and effort put in by a lot of dedicated people.
[Blogs.ineta.org] Brian Loesgen's Blog: Now, when the time comes to enable or disable a receive location, BTSServiceWindows can optionally call a method in an assembly you specify that controls whether the location gets enabled or not. Conditions allow you to implement interresting requirements such as: “Every hour, check to see if a file exists on a remote FTP site, and if not, turn on a receive location and leave it on for at least 10 minutes. Check every 10 minutes, and leave the receive location on as long as there are files in a specified folder that need to be processed“.</P> <P>Same price as the last version (free), and it's also a free upgrade :)</P> <P><A href="http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=cf64cccf-00de-4608-9a6f-ac4d25a6afbb">http://www.gotdotnet.com/Community/UserSamples/Details.aspx?SampleGuid=cf64cccf-00de-4608-9a6f-ac4d25a6afbb</A></P> <P>Â </P> <P>Â </P><img src ="http://blogs.ineta.org/bloesgen/aggbug/11983.aspx" width = "1" height = "1" />Brian Loesgen
