What's wrong with this picture - literally
Fri, Feb 10th 2012 5:05a Jim Casale A recent visit to my sons school shows
me how inept New York City can be.
There is a supposed to be a special
entrance for the FDNY
but I am wondering - how they
are supposed to get over the concrete barriers that were installed?
So now you have 3 schools on a campus
that is fenced in with only one (main) entrance that the FDNY can use.
I guess I shouldn't tell you the road from the main entrance to the 3 schools
is too narrow for firetrucks to navigate. Unbe [read] Keywords:
To Flash or not to Flash
Mon, Sep 26th 2011 5:41a Jim Casale What's the point of promoting a "HTML5"
site when the site depends on Flash?
Cnet
News says
"Today,
Pandora unveiled a dramatically overhauled site design. Beyond a welcome
new look, the code behind the site now uses HTML5 in favor of Adobe
Flash. In its own press
release, Pandora credits the switch to
HTML5 for opening up creative new cross-platform advertising opportunities
and allowing for a more flexible overall site design."

The saddest and happiest day of our lives
Sun, Sep 11th 2011 6:13a Jim Casale It was 10 years ago today America was attacked
by terrorists. Both my wife and I knew people who died at the WTC and know
NYC fireman and police officers who worked at ground zero.
It was 28 years ago today I made the
best decision in my life and married my wife (although some days I bet
she might wonder about her decision)
For the last 10 years we have unofficially
celebrated our anniversary on 9/10 although we have never really talked
about it. It's just something we did.

Thu, Aug 25th 2011 5:11a Jim Casale I've seen McAfee's Security Scan Plus
on a few workstations at a client
recently, and I was puzzled as to how they wold allow this to be installed
along with their normal antivirus software. Now
I know why - thank you Adobe [read] Keywords: security

It's the firewall and everything else but the real problem
Tue, Jul 19th 2011 4:55a Jim Casale A recent problem with my Slingbox has left
me unimpressed with Sling Media's tech support. So much so that I would
recommend against purchasing any Sling Media product.
A few weeks ago my Slingbox stream started
acting up. The stream started freezing, I would get warning messages saying
the quality of Internet was poor, and other assorted oddities. I had attributed
it to poor Internet service as I was already having issues with VPN disconnection
and not being able surf the web.
