George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) Airport Rangers program!

http://www.houstonairportsystem.org/rangers
Thank you for your interest in the George Bush Intercontinental (IAH) Airport Rangers program. The Airport Rangers program was created with security and community participation in mind. Airport Rangers are mounted security patrol made up of volunteers, including off-duty law enforcement officers that ride their horses along the perimeter of the 11,000 acre Bush Intercontinental Airport. In return for keeping an eye out for suspicious activity in the area, equestrians have a pristine location, including wooded trails to ride and the airport has extra eyes and ears in areas that most security patrols can not easily access.
SMART program!

Dreamweaver MX 2004 ftp problem

It can not connect to our ftp server, even Dreamweaver MX works fine. According to Macromedia
"Some users are reporting that the FTP client in Dreamweaver MX 2004 returns 550 Access Denied errors although the connection continues to work in Dreamweaver MX."
http://www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/ ts/documents/emerging_issues.htm#known
, changing the ftp root directory from "/dir" to "./dir" "dir" may work but they don't.
Brand new and buggy, got to go back to Dreamweaver MX.

Google - 'Miserable failure' links to Bush

'Miserable failure' links to Bush
Bush has been the target of similar pranks before
George W Bush has been Google bombed.

Web users entering the words "miserable failure" into the popular search engine are directed to the biography of the president on the White House website.
The trick is possible because Google searches more than just the contents of web pages - it also counts how often a site is linked to, and with what words.
Thus, members of an online community can affect the results of Google searches - called "Google bombing" - by linking their sites to a chosen one.
Weblogger Adam Mathes is credited with inventing the practice in 2001, when he used it to link the phrase "talentless hack" to a friend's website.

Why Am I Keeping A Blog?

Good question. One that I asked my staff when they first made the suggestion to me. After all, its not like I can pretend to be the kind of guy that spends a lot of time surfing the web. To be honest, until a few weeks ago, I didn't even know what the hell a blog was - I joked that I thought it was something that might climb out of a swamp.........

"Google PageRank is Dead"

http://jeremy.zawodny.com/blog/archives/000751.html

"Some might argue that blogs killed PageRank. But the fact is, the online world goes through pretty impressive changes every few years. And, believe it or not, PageRank is old. In Internet time, PageRank may have been well into middle age.
Its death hasn't been announced yet, but the time is near. The signs have been around for quite a while."

    Open Office 1.1

    Just installed OpenOffice.org 1.1. The installer works good, the pdf export feature is suprising, but OpenOffice is still far away from MS Office.
