Security is big business

Why does the War on Terror go on?  Since 9/11, reports The Observer in London, "a highly lucrative industry" has arisen in the United States of America - protecting the homeland from terrorists. It has been five years since a a small group of fanatics brought down the World Trade towers. Since then, hundreds of billions have been spent to protect the US homeland - but some people wonder, from what? Since 2001, terrorists have caused fewer deaths in America than allergic reactions to peanut butter. Some commentators are sarastically awaiting for a War on Peanuts. Seven years ago, there were nine firms with federal homeland security contracts. Now there are 33,890. Since 2000, $130 billion of government contracts have been give out. Since the dawn of the 21st century, almost half of all new jobs in US have come, directly or indirectly, from two booming industries - housing and homeland protection.

Tvåtusen Sex

Vaalijulisteet ovat ilmestyneet Sotkamon keskustaan. Uuden vuoden aikana osa on revitty pois. Revittyjen joukossa on mm. Niinistö. Laxilla ei taida olla julisteiden levittäjää näillä leveysasteilla. Pakko-ruotsistakaan ei ole apua. Vieressäni istuu nuori mies, joka skypettää Venäjälle. Turistit voivat omilla kuulokkeillaan hoitaa kaukoyhtyeksiä nettikahvilasta. Viileetä ja nykyaikaista.

Professor Drucker

Peter Drucker, the most influential management writer of the modern era, has died age 95. A spokesman for the Claremont Graduate University in California, where Prof Drucker worked since the 1971, said he died peacefully on Friday morning after a short illness.

Prof Drucker remained active until the end of his life. Earlier this year he was honoured with the McKinsey Award for the best article published in the Harvard Business Review during 2004. He had just finished collaborating with colleagues on a reworking of the ideas contained in The Effective Executive, first published in 1966.

Podcasting

The word Podcasting describes the technology used to push audio content from websites down to consumers, who then listen on their iPod (hence the "pod") or other mp3 player.

Podcasting is not unlike time-shifted video software and devices like TiVo, which let you watch what you want when you want by recording and storing video, except that podcasting is used for audio. I should note, however, that the technology can be used to push any kind of file including software updates, pictures, videos, etc.

Podcasting uses an XML-based technology called RSS, or Real Simple Syndication. Content publishers describe new content in an XML RSS file which includes dates, titles, descriptions, and links to MP3 files. This auto-generated file is called an RSS feed. RSS was invented by Dave Winer, a pioneer in the world of applied XML. The key to making podcasting work with RSS is enclosures, a feature supported by RSS 2.0.

As a consumer, you run an aggregator program like iPodder on your computer, which lets you subscribe to RSS feeds. These programs will periodically download the RSS files, and check to see if new content is available. If so, the audio files are automatically downloaded to a folder on your hard disk or directly to your mp3 player.

Pwop CEO, Carl Franklin has been publishing .NET Rocks! , an Internet audio talk-show since August 2002, and immediately got on the podcasting bandwagon .NET Rocks! is listed in Adam Curry's list of podcasting pioneers. Read this story from Wired Magazine in which Franklin was quoted about the future of podcasting.

In early October, 2004 Doc Searls posted a succinct guide to podcasting on his weblog, an excellent read if you're looking for more information on podcasting. Here is an interview from October, 2004 with Dave Winer on Future Tense, a public radio show with Jon Gordon.

MP 3 inspelning

Finns det någon som har provat att spela in musik från konsert eller från körsång med inbyggda mikrofonen? Skall man använda AGC eller inte ? Överstyrs ingången vid starka ljudtoppar ? Tacksam för alla tips. Skall använda spelaren som hjälp vid körsångsövningar... Även tacksam för andra lösningar tex inspelning via extern mikrofon. Diskussioner kring en modell:

Jag spelade in en föreläsning i ett konserthus med den inbyggda mikrofonen. Vid tillfällen när det spelades upp musik eller om personen som höll i föreläsningen höjde rösten för att tillkalla uppmärksamhet distar ljudet. Antar att det beror på att ljudtopparna kommer för högt över. Har dock inte testat någon speciell inställning som möjligtvis skulle kunnat förhindra det.


Jag anser att det borde finnas en rec-level på voice-recording mode på 899. Jag spelar i band och behöver stundom spela in när vi repar utan att rigga extern micrfon. MEN, ljudet är för starkt för det, det blir bara distortion. Det går alltså inte att spela in t.ex konserter via inbyggda mikrofonen. Den fungerar däremot perfekt för tal.


Skulle det inte funka bättre att använda en extern mik vid inspelning av konserter, i replokalen o dyl? Line in record volume går att ställa in. Frågan är bara om en extern mikrofon minimerar risken för överslag.. säkert nåt shosan inprogramerat i iriver för att man inte ska tillåtas kunna spela in med starkare ljudkällor.


Jag håller verkligen med. Väldigt tråkigt att man inte kan sänka inspelningsvolymen. Själv har jag en 795:a som jag i övrigt är grymt nöjd med. Troligtvis funkar det mycket bättre med en extern mic. Mitt tips är att kolla hos din lokala handlare, dvs. prova att koppla en extern mic inne i affären och kör lite ljudtester. Naturligtvis har inte iriver lagt in någon spärr för att man inte skall kunna spela in konserer.

PWOP Podcasting kit

We've spent a lot of time looking for high-quality gear that is also compact and affordable. This is our currently suggested podcasting kit. Note that you don't need a computer in order to record your voice. The mic plugs into the preamp. The preamp plugs into the recording device's line input, and the headphones plug into the recording device's headphone jack. Only the preamp requires AC power. The recording device uses a single AA battery which lasts a long time. Check out our videos on how to use the podcasting kit.
