2008-08-13 00:26:00 Finally a Candidate that will stand up for what is rightComment posted by Anonymous on Tue, 08/12/2008 - 10:11pm Don't get me wrong, drugs are bad when misused. But reading this article, we can see how far we've come to combat a problem that just grows not to mention that these officers killed 2 family pets of an innocent person. These dogs and there owners were innocent civillians who got tangled up in a scheme by someone else. It's amazing that the press hasn't picked up this article as someone is actually saying what needs to be said. I went to http://www.bobbarr2008.com when I read this article and Bob is saying the right things. I never voted for a third party candidate before, but now I'm ready to volunteer for his campaign and do my part to get someone in office with a head on his shoulders.Its funny the mainstream press will pick up articles about someone's shoes or someone else's vacation plans, but they won't address or cover the issues which they are paid to cover...

Raid Pigneto, Chianelli indagato, anche un nero nella banda, Notizie di cro
2008-05-30 11:10:00 Autore: Ultime Notizie Agenzia di pubblicità Oggetto: Raid Pigneto, Chianelli indagato, anche un nero nella banda Inviato: Ven Mag 30, 2008 8:10 pm (GMT 11) Ieri si è costituito Dario Chianelli, l'uomo ricercato per il raid contro alcuni extracomunitari nel quartiere romano. E si fa avanti un altro giovane della spedizione punitiva: "E' un africano, esasperato come noi". Il ragazzo di colore in via Ascoli Piceno, impugnava una mazza come i "pischelli" bianchi cui si era unito. Un nero contro altri neri. Il "nero" è cresciuto tra il Pigneto e il Prenestino. Lavora. E sabato, a quanto pare, non c'è stato bisogno di convincerlo ad unirsi al resto dei mazzieri. Nessun raid razzista organizzato, nessuna motivazione politica ma solo una questione personale, anzi affettiva, per vendicare un'amica vittima del furto di un portafoglio.

"Eccome qua, io sarei il nazista che stanno a cercà da tutti i pizzi. Guarda qua. Guarda quanto sò nazista...". La mano sinistra solleva la manica destra del giubbetto di cotone verde che indossa, scoprendo la pelle. L'avambraccio è un unico, grande tatuaggio di Ernesto Che Guevara. Il raid contro il negozio di via Macerata sembra un regolamento di conti dopo lo scippo di un portafoglio a una donna cara ad "Ernesto". Secondo un suo amico immigrato il colpevole si trova nel negozio degli indiani di via Macerata. Il pregiudicato italiano venerdì verso mezzogiorno di dirige al negozio e trova il presunto ladro marocchino: "Tu passare oggi pomeriggio e trovare portafoglio". L'uomo del raid torna il pome...

Benchmarking Linux filesystems on software RAID 1
2008-04-20 04:51:00 A couple of months ago I got a couple of wonderful birthday presents. My lovely geeky girlfriend got me two Western Digital 500 GB SATA 3.0 drives, which were promptly supplemented with a 3ware 9550XS 4-port hardware RAID card. Immediately I came up with the idea for this article. I had just read up on mdadm software RAID so I though it would be perfect to bench mark the hardware RAID against the software RAID using all kinds of file systems, block sizes, chunk sizes, LVM settings, etcetera. Or so I though… As it turns out, my (then) limited understanding of RAID and some trouble with my 3ware RAID cards meant that I had to scale back my benchmark quite a bit. And to top it off I discovered some nasty problems with 3ware 9550 RAID cards under Linux that quickly made me give up on hardware RAID. I still ended up testing various filesystems using different blocksizes and workloads on an mdadm RAID 1 setup, so the results should still prove interesting.
