Russia Green Lights $65 Billion Siberia-Alaska Rail and Tunnel to Bridge the Bering Strait!

Russia Green Lights $65 Billion Siberia-Alaska Rail and Tunnel to Bridge the Bering Strait!

The high speed railway and tunnel will be a private public partnership whose economic impact could be startling. 100 million tons of freight could be moved per year using the most efficient known way of transport. Proposed tidal energy plants could provide 10 gigawatts of energy and a string of wind power fields could churn a constant supply of clean energy, serving as a vital link to a worldwide energy grid. The tunnel alone would take fifteen years to complete — and an energy and railway network would take many more — but the project would significantly change the shipping and energy industry.

Meet Dark Tangent, the hacker behind Black Hat and DEF CON - CNN.com

"CNN: How did Black Hat and DEF CON get started?

Moss: The two are definitely interconnected. DEF CON started several years before Black Hat did because there was just no market for a commercial-type security con. Everything was underground or much more informal and when the Internet started growing up then all of a sudden companies were looking around for security information. A friend of mine suggested I should charge a lot more money and make a professional version of DEF CON."

Rebuilding rural America through rural philanthropy

Rebuilding rural America through rural philanthropy:

"From the Rural Tour, which I led two years ago — to the new White House Rural Council, which I chair — from broadband, to energy and microenterprises, the USDA’s ongoing focus has been jobs and opportunity for rural citizens. This kind of opportunity adds value to agricultural products, attracts industry and makes rural America competitive. But our work also goes to quality-of-life issues like education, healthcare and community services, and makes rural communities better places to live and raise families.

Rural America abounds with potential, but we must better use a powerful tool capable of also improving opportunity in rural America: philanthropic partnerships.

Our rural communities need more investment, innovation and networks.

To unleash the wealth and capital that exist in our rural communities we need funding from many sources. That is why I traveled to Kansas City this week to address the Rural Philanthropy Conference of the Council on Foundations."

White space rural broadband moves one step closer

White space rural broadband moves one step closer:

"The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the organisation that helped ignite the Wi-Fi revolution nearly a decade ago, has published a new wireless standard that promises to bring broadband access to under-served rural areas.

Called IEEE 802.22, the new specification has been designed to take advantage of those portions of the radio frequency spectrum that are increasingly available as digital television switchover schemes make progress around the world.

With support for both VHF (very-high frequency) and UHF (ultra-high frequency) TV bands, sites as far as 100 kilometres away from a single transmitter could enjoy broadband speeds typical of more densely populated areas."

Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ - Roof rack cross bars

Jeep Grand Cherokee WJ - Roof rack cross bars:

"The rail end caps, two at the rear and two at the front, are attached with plastic clip tabs. To remove or install the adjustable crossrails, the two rear caps must be removed. The easiest way to remove them is to pry out one side with a trim stick or your fingers while pulling the cap up from the back (front side of vehicle). Note the location of the lock tabs in the photo above. The edges of the caps can be sharp so it's best to use a rag or glove to protect your fingers while pulling them off. When re-installing, make sure to align the end tab and check that they are completely seated on all sides."
