choir (Dec 26 2006 05:51 GMT) - Posted by: abyss - I'm standing in a choir. Although it seems more like an audition, I'm kind of caught off-guard when the director starts going around and asking each person to sing the scale. For some reason something so simple makes me really nervous, so I start worrying and thinking up excuses to leave quickly.. Everyone else is so good and I can't even sing. |

The main concern in Bali was a repeat of the bombing in 2002 & 2005.

Day after Christmas in Bali (Dec 26 2006 05:45 GMT) - Christmas Day passed without incident here in Bali. I spent the day at an internet cafe, while family and friends did their thing.

GPS (Dec 26 2006 05:41 GMT) - I have a couple of Lowrance Globemap 100 GPSs but never got software or cable to download the waypoints to my computer. One of the hand held GPSs is almost at its limit. Anyone here have the software and cable they would like to sell, or know where I can get it? Cabellas and Bass Pro Shop say it is obsolete and don't carry it anymore. I also have a Lowarance LMS 320 on my boat that will take a chip - would like to be able to download and upload from there, too. |

Safe Light (Dec 26 2006 05:41 GMT) - For you tournament fishermen - what is "safe light?" I think it is an opinion - usually the Tournament Director's opinion - not a time. Why not just set a time? The major problem I see, especially in club tournaments, if you say "safe light" you put it on the tournament director, another club member, to say when it is safe. What if there is an accident? |

George Orwell Was Right — Security Cameras Get an Upgrade (Dec 26 2006 05:34 GMT) - Jamie stopped to mention that Bloomberg is reporting on a recent addition of speakers to public security cameras in Middlesbrough, England. From the article: "`People are shocked when they hear the cameras talk, but when they see everyone else looking at them, they feel a twinge of conscience and comply,' said Mike Clark, a spokesman for Middlesbrough Council who recounted the incident. The city has placed speakers in its cameras, allowing operators to chastise miscreants who drop coffee cups, ride bicycles too fast or fight outside bars." |
