30C in the office at the mo. Just received an email from the deputy principle that he is going to treat every one to an ice cream. Shame it's not hot enough for one yet.

Kong: Skull Island: first image, plot details | Den of Geek The Kong films in order of how good they are (IMO) King Kong (1933) King Kong (1976) King Kong vs. Godzilla (1962) The Son of Kong (1933) King Kong (TV series) King Kong (2005) There's also a few that I haven't seen King Kong Escapes (1967) - with MechaKong! King Kong Lives (1986) Kong: King of the Apes (TV series)

Fine - as far as I'm concerned, it isn't hot until it gets to 40C, which is highly unlikely here in Blighty. Where I'm from in Oz, it's pretty common for 40+ days in the summer. When I first came over in 1993, I wore a jumper all summer 'cus I thought it was too cold!

+1 Inrfanview - that's how we do it.

I used the Chrome addon Chrono Download Manager to get them all

Free Speech University Rankings! - a spiked campaign If you dig through the results, there are some quite chillings examples of censorship. It was all different when I was as uni in the 1970s - you could say what you wanted, read what you wanted and nobody cared. I still have my copies of The Anarchist Cookbook and Kitchen Explosives from this era. We were too busy getting drunk to be a worry - the most dangerous thing we did was tip all the benches over in the park.

This is one of the best resources on stretching that I know Stretching and Flexibility - Table of Contents so famous it is quoted in several books on the subject. Take up ballet lessons - great for both mind and body. If you don't fancy or can't get to class, this is very good Sleek Technique and this https://www.amazon.co.uk/XTend-Barre-Ballet-Workout-DVD/dp/B004C9MCC4 isn't bad.

No he was fine. It's pretty common for the big guys to pass out after a massive lift. Benni Magnusson, Jerry Pritchard and Eddie all lifted 465kgs, for a new world record and then Eddie pulled the 500 for the win (Benni failed @ 500 and Jerry didn't try). WSM in a month's time might well see some bigger lifts.

The lib dems one

Something to aim for... (Congrats to Eddie)

It's pretty easy to get Moodle running - see https://docs.moodle.org/31/en/Installing_Moodle Follow these and you can't really go wrong. You can host it on your own webserver (where you have total control) or on an externally hosted box (where you have less control and have to pay). Which is best? That depends on your needs. We run ours on our own box. There are a ton of instructions on the web on setting up a webserver, either LAMP, WAMP or WIMP (ours is WIMP - Windows, IIS, MySQL, PHP). Thankfully there isn't a LIMP If you don't want to setup your own webserver, try googling "hosted moodle" and you'll get a shed load of results. Here's one I picked at random https://www.squirrelhosting.co.uk/hosting/moodle-hosting-uk.php

Great bit of flying too!

Nice but isn't the scutter a bit big?

The feeling on other forums is yes it is. It might have something to do with the brouhaha caused by the last Academy Awards. Whatever next, Wonder Woman played by an Asian bloke? Atom Ant played by a cockroach?

Yes, one handed barbell curls are hard to keep balanced. I guess, the more you do them, the stronger the wrist gets and the easier the balance becomes, at which point you chuck on more weight.

Tried a new exercise last night - one arm barbell curls. I didn't use an olympic bar, rather a light bar with 10kgs on it. My wrists are feeling it this morning (which is what the exercise is supposed to target).

We don't get much of it here - when we do we reset their password to Password1 (which meets the complexity rules) and force change at logon. At the first school I was at (Linux on the desktops), students could change their own passwords, but they had to follow the instructions on the intranet/wall posters and most couldn't be bothered to read them. I'd get loads coming in saying they had forgotten their password, as a way to get out of lesson. I soon solved that though... Kiddo: I've forgotten my password sir. Me: OK, I'll change it - Whats your favourite football team? Kiddo: Man U (of course - How do you confuse a Man U fan? Show them a map of Manchester) Me. OK, your password is WBArules. Follow the instructions on the wall if you don't like it. A week or so later.... Kiddo: I've forgotten my password sir. Me: It's WBArules - I changed it last week.

I've just pointed this out to the people who tell the students about data protection, as an idea for class time. Source: https://www.cifas.org.uk/

Maybe add a -q option to the ping command? (Don't have my Linux box here today, so I can't test it.)

Your Smart Watch Can Steal Your ATM PIN - IEEE Spectrum I'm safe - my watch isn't smart. A lot of people can't even tell the time on my Bradley watch - it has no hands and it isn't digital.

We're all Father Ted fans here and ecumenical is used quite frequently. Teacher: Why does the new computer look different to the old one? We in IT: That would be an ecumenical matter. One chap I worked with used to come out with some rippers which I'd love to drop into conversations here in college. If something was blindingly obvious, rather than "No s**t Sherlock" he'd say "Does the Pope wear a funny hat? Are the Kennedy's gun shy?" As an exclamation of surprise "Well bugger me with the bell end of a ragman's trumpet!"

Medial can live stream your tablet, phone etc and you can permanently keep the live stream. That's what we're going to use it for. You'll need an HLS app on your iOS or Android device (eg Wowza GoCoder)

We use MEDIAL | Media Library Software streaming server and the other day, we had a live demo of their forthcoming lecture capture software. It looks really good and is teacher proof. They said it should be live by Aug/Sept and they are looking for early adopters. The work "discount" was mentioned in this regard. We're being upgraded next week so we can take advantage of the live streaming feature.
