Republicans Fail to Stop Rep. Grayson From Reciting Body Count of Uninsured
Rep. Phil Gingrey, R-Ga., tried to stop the Florida Democrat in the middle of his reading on the House floor Wednesday night. House Republicans failed in an attempt Wednesday to prevent outspoken Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., from reading aloud the number of people he claims have died for lack of health insurance in every GOP member's district. Rep. Phil Gingrey, R-Ga., tried to stop the Florida Democrat in the middle of his reading on the House floor Wednesday night. Grayson has agitated Republicans in recent weeks for accusing them of wanting sick Americans to "die quickly" and for making other incendiary comments. Grayson was compelled to apologize for some remarks, most recently for calling an adviser to Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke a "whore." But Republicans could not force an apology out of him Wednesday. Gingrey called for a review of Grayson's words, which could have forced the lawmaker to either apologize or stop speaking. But after the House went into recess for an hour, Grayson's words were ruled to be in order. And then he continued to read out the number of people he says have died in every Republican's district -- which he calculated based on the statistics of uninsured residents released by the Urban Institute. "We now return to our regularly scheduled program," Grayson said as he resumed. "The effort to keep me from doing what I'm doing here has failed." The effort to reprimand Grayson comes after Republican Rep. Joe Wilson, S.C., was formally admonished by his colleagues for shouting "you lie" at President Obama during his health care address in September. - - - Deee-licious. |

I bet I hear how well it works. If not I'll read it for myself. |

I always liked and continued to use Pan-0.14.2-1. I will probably return to it. I used to use Red Hat until Fedora came out. I switched to Mandrake, now Mandriva, this is the first free version I've used for a few years. I got Powerpack versions for a few years. Try out 2010 free for now. |

Yup, Debian does it a little different than most of the other distros. It has stable, testing, and unstable. One of the bitches about Debian, is it's slow release cycle, but by the time packages get to stable, they are well tested. Slow release cycle, but rock solid. Unstable is bleeding edge, and can break, but I've been using it for years, and have only had a broken system twice, and it was fixed within a couple of days. I wouldn't use unstable on a production server, but for home use, no worries. :) I'm running Max OS X, 10.6.1 on my macs, and Windows Server 2003/Hybrid/Windows Home Server on my, you guessed it, Windows Home Server.

Before doing anything to the hard drive, try a Live CD. It runs off of the CD, and doesn't change the system at all. It will give you a taste of what Linux is, but remember, because it is running off of a CD, it will be slower than if installed. I would suggest Ubuntu. It's modern, and relatively newbie friendly. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download If you like it, it can be installed from the same CD. It will partition your disk, leaving your Windows install alone. If you have enough space, obviously. Personally, I prefer Debian. Perhaps it is not as newbie friendly, but from the first time I tried it, I knew I found a home. ;-) Anyway, if you do try Linux, let me know if you run into any problems. If I don't know the answer, I know where to find the answer. ;-) Plus I'm toying with the idea of getting a Mac for the graphics and video stuff I've been doing - that's a maybe, but I'm being pushed in that direction by some of my collegues and friends. We'll see. :) Nothing for nothing, in the early days, a Mac was it for graphics. I'm not so sure that is the case anymore. The lines are blurring. One can do just as well, whether on a PC, a Mac, or even a Linux system. It's more the program, and one's level of comfort and expertise with that program. |

If you have the cache, pun intended, and what to go large let me know and I'll give you the specs on a real farm. If I ever decide to take the Linux plunge I would just do it with a hardware dual boot machine. I already have a few, switching from DOS to Windoze. You only have to put a switch on the master/slave jumpers on the drives. Flip it one way it boots DOS, the other way it boots Windoze. I have 2 new machines that will let you do the same thing right in the BIOS. XP will let you set D: "active" so you don't need to switch jumpers. DOS? You're still running DOS? You're the man! |

Why don't you use LILO, Linux Loader, to dual boot if that is all you want. LILO comes with most all Linux distributions. No switch on the master/slave jumpers just hit the space bar when booting. LILO has been around for near 20 years. If you want to run, actually run, multiple OSes at the same time get VMWare and you can switch between the OSes with a couple of keystrokes. Why take the LINUX plunge at all, unless you absolutely need something LINUX or an app that runs under it offers? Hell, you can *buy* a fully supported OS for $30, one that boots up without question on the hardware for which it was designed, and is maintained by professionals, *and* offers in-person and over the phone support by people who speak...English? |

If you are using a modern distribution, don't be surprised if it comes with Grub as it's boot-loader, instead of Lilo. BAR is right about using a virtual machine, though. I use VirtualBox. If you are so inclined, you can even lose some of Windows bloat by parrying it down with nLite. http://lifehacker.com/374376/trim-do...are-essentials |
