It’s just data
Looks like a number of people are commenting on IBM's purchase of Rational. I first worked with Rational in the mid eighties when their one product was an integrated hardware/software R1000 product focused on software development with Ada (funky 8.5" wide by 11" tall monitors with an excellent sofware configuration management system).
Rational has grown a bit since then.
Fellow Apache Member Jon Stevens, (yes, that Jon Stevens) has put together an RSS 2.0 feed for StudioZ. It even validates.
I wonder how many other nightclubs can say that they do that?
Joe Gregorio: Welcome to the weather of North Carolina. When it comes to the weather here it's not the average that will get you, it's the standard deviation. The power went out here just before dinner was ready. Just came back now... just as we were all preparing to go to sleep again in the family room around the fireplace.
The radio is calling this Fran on ice. To me, there is no comparison... with Fran we lost 7 trees, including two rather big ones... the first time I ever used a chainsaw it was on a tree that was nearly twice the blade width in diameter. When the ground shook when the tree landed and the stump snapped back upright I realized how dumb I was to attempt such a thing... despite the fact that everything went exactly as it was supposed to.
With this storm, the roads are dry and passable during the day. And I only lost two relatively small trees.
Another Apache member with a Radio weblog. Morgan, if you haven't discovered them yet, check out referers and rss subscriptions.

Power went off yesterday morning, came back briefly this morning, and has been off and on every since. Here is a view from my front door, taken first thing this morning.
Update: Mark reminds us that, No electricity == no heat, no stove, no refrigeration. As I am on a well, in my case the first thing I notice is no heat = no water. The first thing we did when the power came back on was flush and shower, in that order.
