I wanted a sleeve for my Dell Inspiron E1705 (which is basically the same machine as the Inspiron 9300/9400) but couldn't find many good reviews online. Some said it would fit in XYZ sleeve and others would say it wouldn't fit in the same sleeve. So, I traveled to a few local computer supply shops and found several things. First, OfficeMax/OfficeDepot suck for laptop sleeves. They have lots of briefcases.

So, I showed my mom the RainSkirt photos I took and she hated them. Not hated them, but hated the fact that they were untouched. I like things in their "natural state" and generally don't touch up my photos, but now that I see her work I might be swayed.
comparing these two photos of Nikki in her skirt on that lone rainy day this spring:

I had heard weeks ago from chatting with Mike Hostetler that he was working on a code repository for jQuery plugins which got me quite excited. Historically getting specific versions of jQuery plugins has been a little difficult. Now there's a great jQuery Plugin Repository that replaces the Wiki. The recent jQuery Blog post discusses the new system:

Let's say you need to drop all tables in a mysql database. How do you do that?
You could use a gui, but that's not fun.
You're a shell jockey so you want a commandline:
mysql -u uname dbname -e "show tables" | grep -v Tables_in | grep -v "+" | \ gawk '{print "drop table " $1 ";"}' | mysql -u uname dbname
(that's all one line, but if I do it as a line then it screws up my theme - go figure).
This assumes that you are running in passwordless mode. See "man mysql" for tips on how to pass in passwords in another manner.

The lowest level that registered in Analog this month was 113. So, if your project or release was downloaded fewer than 113 times it won't register. I say project OR release because it's possible that the 5.x-1.20 release of your module was quickly followed by the 5.x-1.21 release - the 5.x-1.20 version may not register even if the module is fairly popular. So, 1) the numbers are inherently flawed a little bit 2) project maintainers should only create new releases when there has been a significant enough change to warrant it. Doing so on every new commit to the project is a waste of your time, your users time, and reduces the quality of these metrics.
That said, on with the report...

Let's say that you are running a command on a linux shell and it's taking a long time. Further, you need to disconnect your session to get on the bus or your session gets disconnected because your net connection is flakey.
Imagine if you could just disconnect from your shell session and then reconnect. Well, you can :)
