HUNTING FOR A NEW WEB PUBLISHING GIANT
2008-06-03 23:00:00 MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--News aggregation, licensing rights, and user-generated content. Every publisher has grappled with one or all of these issues as they've built online operations in the age of social media. They're also potentially ripe markets for innovation. Or at least that's the hope of four Web publishing start-ups that presented business models here Tuesday at the Under the Radar Conference, a one-day confab on social media. Four companies--AudioMicro, GumGum, Keibi, and Loud3r--delivered a six-minute elevator pitch to an audience of executives and three judges. Judges included Charlene Li, vice president at Forrester Research; Rob Hayes, partner at First Round Capital; and Jason Oberfest, vice president of business development at MySpace. Here are the online publishing hopefuls: AudioMicro What it does: licenses music or soundtracks for $1. Launched last week, the company hosts a marketplace for independent artists to upload and license their music for $1. People...
Puppy Food For Large/Giant Breed Dogs
2008-06-02 19:28:00 Many companies have, or are coming out with, higher protein, grain free foods. While these can be wonderful for the full grown dog, not all of them are appropriate for puppies under one year of age. It is not the high protein that is a concern but most of these foods are too high in calcium for growing pups. Some people and breeders are still skeptical about feeding pups higher protein. I disagree with this as I have seen pups raised on high protein foods and they are doing great. I correspond with breeders feeding high protein grain free food to weaned pups and plan on doing so with my next litter.   Here is a link for your review: http://www.b-naturals.com/newsl-etter/puppy-protein/ Now for the calcium: Natures Variety Instinct is what my girls eat and do great on. However with calcium at 2.49% it is too high for growing pups under one year of age. EVO is another excellent grain free food but at 3.0% calcium it is also too high. The best one I have seen on the marke...

2008-05-31 16:24:00 Giant Panda - Electric Laser [2008]Panda Link 2This is the follow up to the groups excellent debut, "Fly School Reunion." As was the case with their first album, I know I like "Electric Laser" immediately, and this is not the disposable crap raps you hear nearly everywhere else, but with all things good, it takes a few days or weeks to really grasp it all. It's not the most complicated album you'll hear, and they've used less wax samples and more keyboards in this affair, but again, this isn't the paperthin keyboard rap you hear on the radio/MTV. This is for people who love fresh hip hop, classic style hip hop, but without the dated sound.Giant Panda - Fly School Reunion [2005]Fly School Link 2Tres Records presents the debut album from Giant Panda, ?Fly School Reunion?.

Edit and compare giant binary files with lfhex
2008-05-27 13:32:00 Many hex editors try to copy an entire file into memory before they let you edit it, which explicitly limits the size of the files you can view or edit. lfhex is designed to allow you to edit binary files larger than can fit into your computer's memory. While you might normally not be working with binary files that are larger than your memory, it's good to know that your hex editor can scale to such large files when that situation arises. lfhex can load huge files quickly and does not require large amounts of memory to do so. For example, the documentation mentions that loading a 2GB file requires less than 2MB of RAM.
