Installing CPAN perl modules in your home directory without root access. use perl's Local Lib

2012-01-28T13:49:00.000+01:00

The easy way to installing CPAN perl modules in your home directory without root access.
use perl's Local Lib.

I just found this page here an article from Jon Allen (JJ), http://perl.jonallen.info/writing/articles/install-perl-modules-without-root

and it mentioned this great lib (Distribution from Chris Nehren ): http://search.cpan.org/dist/local-lib/.

The latest version is http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/A/AP/APEIRON/local-lib-1.008004.tar.gz so you just need to :

wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/A/AP/APEIRON/local-lib-1.008004.tar.gz

tar -xzf local-lib-1.008004.tar.gz

cd local-lib-1.008004/

Important, bootstrap, not build normally

perl Makefile.PL --bootstrap

Build

make

Install :

make install

save the new path in your bashrc :

echo 'eval $(perl -I$HOME/perl5/lib/perl5 -Mlocal::lib)' >>~/.bashrc

Now just load that

. ~/.bashrc

and run cpan!!

cpan

It is great!

Unity media hat sie nicht mehr! UnitymediaHilfe "... Sie schon einmal über ein Upgrade Ihrer Internetgeschwindigkeit nachgedacht ? " !!!!!!!

2012-01-16T23:10:00.001+01:00

Seit Tagen leide ich an Youtube buffering, es laedt und laedt und laedt.

Endlich habe ich genug, ich anlysiere das problem und stelle fest, die test video von youtube laedt mit 0-20k/s. Beim zweiten mal laedt es mit 6mb/s. Es wird auch nicht bei mir zwischengespeichert, sehe das problem auch mit einem netzwerk monitor. Es muss wohl an die leitung zwischen unitymedia und youtube liegen.

Am 12. Januar 2012 11:52 mache ich eine Problemeldung bei unitymedia auf dem webformular,

Ich melde das problem am 12. Januar 2012, ich hange dieses Dokument an

UnityMedia 2play 6000 Problems

und den video link

http://www.unitymedia.de/service/kontakt_technisch.html

da steht als bestaetigung :

Wir haben Ihre E-Mail erhalten und werden uns schnellstmöglich
um Ihr Anliegen kümmern.

aber keinen Ticket nummer. Ich bekomme nie eine richtige Bestaetigung .

Am naechsten Tag bekomme ich keine bestaetigung, ich melde es nochmal, mache aber eine speicherung der webseite. es war Jan 13 um 20:13 . Ich bekomme auch nie eine bestaetigung.

Heute schreibe ich nochmal einen brief

Unity Media Second Letter @UnitymediaHilfe

Ich schicke das diesmal per email an unitymedia,
und bekomme zum ersten mal in 3 tagen eine bestaetigung oder feedback :

Fluglaerm/Fluglärm/Airplane Noise Pollution

2012-01-13T13:30:00.001+01:00

This blog post is about my experience with the noise pollution from the airplanes at the new landing strip The landebahn nordwest (http://www.rhein-main-wiki.de/index.php?title=Landebahn_Nordwest)

It was opened up on Oct 21 (21.10.2011) http://www.fraport.de/content/fraport-ag/de/entwicklung_frankfurtairport/neue_landebahn.html and I took a picture from my window on that day :

The chancellor, angele merkel landed that day, and we all clapped.

Here is the map of where my office was , you can see it is in a direct link with the runway and it is about 1000 meters away.

View Larger Map
But what I noticed very quickly that it was loud when I waited for the bus that day :

and when the window was open, this is not even the loudest one :

and with the window closed :

but also there was a really bad smell of kerosin in the air with the planes so close.

that is why I could not stand it there any longer,

How to extract from Klan Kosovo TV webpage

2012-01-10T14:04:00.000+01:00

I got the link to a tv show here,
http://klankosova.tv/index.php/emisioni-i-mengjesit/9521-09012012.html

but I could not watch it. So I looked at the files being downloaded and found it was streaming a wmv file, so I just grabbed it with wget

wget http://videos.klankosova.com/mengjesi/Programi_Mengjesit_0901.wmv

then I cut out the section with ffmpeg, -ss is the start time, -t is the duration in seconds, it writes it to Altin.avi

ffmpeg -i Programi_Mengjesit_0901.wmv -ss 1:08:44 -t 500 Altin.avi

The video is on facebook now :

proof general build results

2012-01-10T03:01:00.001+01:00

Based on the request for sponsorship in debian of proofgeneral
http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.devel.mentors/browse_thread/thread/d880e9cbcbeee77c/bd198e4b06cfe42f?show_docid=bd198e4b06cfe42f&pli=1

I did test build of Proofgeneral, here are the results.

It seems that it is missing dependancies so the build with latex is failing.

Dooble and interface public key

2012-01-08T04:47:00.001+01:00

Dooble is a new webbrowser, interface (http://interface.sourceforge.net/) is a new supposedly without a central server but I have not figured out how it works yet. Dooble
svn repo is https://dooble.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/dooble/trunk is also missing and autotools or cmake build system.

you can install from debian packages, get dooble 1.26 https://sourceforge.net/projects/dooble/files/Version%201.26/
and get interface: https://sourceforge.net/projects/interface/files/version_1.3.0/

then go to add ins and start interface for the chat program

and sign in, it should look like this :

Solar furnace of Mont-Louis

Solar ovens for cooking

The solar furnace of Mont-Louis is a solar oven built just after World War II the French commune of Mont-Louis , in the department of Pyrenees-Orientales , in region Languedoc-Roussillon . First installation of its kind in the world, it was a precursor of Odeillo solar furnace built about fifteen years later a few miles away. It provides a power of 50 kilowatts .

Summary

[ hide ]

History [ edit ]

The chemist French Felix Trombe and his team have performed at the Meudon Observatory in 1946 a first experience with a mirror of DCA to show the possibility to reach high temperatures very rapidly and in a very pure thanks to the highly concentrated sunlight. The objective was to melt the ore and extract high purity materials to manufacture new refractory materials more efficient ^one .

To achieve this chain and test the various possibilities, the first solar furnace was built at Mont-Louis in 1949 ² .

The solar furnace at Mont-Louis served as a model worldwide, demonstrating the potential of solar energy and its many applications. On site, it is also possible to discover the cooking solar oven and solar cooker³ !

Development and Cooperation [ edit ]

Exchange of know-how with the city of Safi in Morocco . The solar oven of Mont-Louis is engaged in a process of technology transfer to developing countries . Its purpose is to install across a village a solar oven that will cook pots, plates to eat bread, building materials, melting any metal into pots or tools to grow ⁴ .

Visit [ edit ]

Visitors to the solar furnace of Mont-Louis are led by the guide at heart facilities to explain the operation and use of the oven.

Scientific applications simple and complete the educational visit, with for example: the materialization of concentration solar home , between 2000 ° C and 3500 ° C, inflammation of wood, metal smelting, cooking ceramics, etc.

The tour ends with a comprehensive overview of technologies using the solar energy : solar thermal , solar shower , solar cells, solar cookers ⁵ .

Regular solar furnace of Mont-Louis is home to associations and organizations that offer visitors to learn how to make solar ovens for cooking ⁶ and organizes demonstrations of solar cooking.

Studies and career [ edit ]

Solar furnace of Mont-Louis

He obtained the diploma of engineer - chemist in 1928 at the Institute of Chemistry of Paris , without obtaining the degree . During his thesis in 1930 , he studied the properties of metals in the series of chemical lanthanides .

He then directed for 24 years ( 1945 - 1969 ) Georges Urbain laboratory dedicated to the study of these metals in the National Centre for Scientific Research ( CNRS ).

Solar energy [ edit ]

He is best known for his work on the high temperatures associated with the solar energy .

Felix Trombe runs 1949 creation, Mont-Louis , Pyrenees-Orientales , a prototype of a solar furnace with a capacity of 50kW, the solar furnace of Mont-Louis and the great furnace 1000 kW of Odeillo to Font-Romeu .

The large 1 MW solar furnace of Odeillo

As part of the energy savings or assistance to developing countries, Felix Trombe consider other forms of exploitation of passive solar energy . He created with the architectJacques Michel the Trombe wall . This wall consists of a concrete block solar radiation that accumulates the day and return at night.

Even after his retirement in 1976 , it provides advice and assistance to all countries interested in exploiting solar energy

The scientific work of Felix Trombe has received approximately 300 publications and numerous contracts and patents . In addition, Felix Trombe organized several international conferences.

Exploitation of thermal waters of Ganties [ edit ]

From 1968 to 1971 , Felix Trombe owner of the source, is undertaking major work on the capture of deep thermal source , to ensure optimum quality of this mineral water. This work will be controlled by the Service des Mines de Toulouse ¹ .

Action as part of caving [ edit ]

In 1934 , Felix Trombe explores the Comminges underground.

In 1945 , he was part of the commission of caving dependent on the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and another committee of the French National Committee of Geodesy and Geophysics. It supports Jeannel in 1948 during the creation of the National Speleological to become the French Federation of Speleology .

From 6 to 12 August 1947 , he participated in explorations of the subterranean river of Padirac with Lavaur Guy and his son Gerald, Jean and Louis Conduché Lesur. Trombe the team turns to Joly , then they reach the Grand Chaos . Trombe analysis following the resurgence colored water of the river and shows the link between Padirac and résergences inMontvalent .

In 1947 , he directed operations for exploring the abyss of Henne Morte ( Felix Trombe Network ) with the support of members who install an electrical cable. On August 31 , Norbert Casteret Loubens and manage to reach the bottom of the well. France's record of depth is achieved: -446 meters.

It gives its name to Felix Trombe network which is one of the largest underground complex in France with thirty-three sinkholes linked to a total lift of -1018 meters.

From 20 July to 10 August 1948 , he again explores the underground river of Padirac with the help of paratroopers to transport 700 kg grooved floor which was thought to be essential for the assembly of tents. These floors, heavily slowed shipping. The following year, Robert de Joly show sleeping fully clothed on his canoe turned over, there is not even need heated tent with candles and even fewer boards. Ms. Trombe and Miss Charlotte Henry of measures will Blankets ionization and C02. Trombe Team Chaos Greater upstream and downstream and grows a peak of 1000 m in a gallery with many beautiful gours mostly empty of water, beautiful concretions and few problems, along with Clamagirand, Lieutenant de Courville Cioni and "stop on nothing."

Books to donate in Frankfurt/Offenbach

2012-01-02T17:20:00.000+01:00

I have a large amount of books for donation to a worthy cause or for sale. I will be listing them soon. Originally they were scheduled to go to kosovo for flossk.org but the transport is expensive. That is why I would rather sell them or donate them in offenbach so that I don't have travel expenses.

I have many more books as well, not all computer books.
please contact me (jamesmikedupont at g 00gle mail doet c0m ) if you have any way to process them. Ideally I would get a tax break or money for them.
thanks,
mike

Log Cabins with your own trees

Random info on Log cabins and grading of wood.

Graded Lumber and the Building Code

The U. S. Department of Commerce has established the American Softwood Lumber Standard PS 20-70 that covers the requirements for structural lumber. ...
Many building codes specify the use of certain grades of lumber for specific applications. In these cases, un-graded lumber cannot be used. It is possible to hire an inspector to grade your lumber and qualified graders can be located through one of the major grading agencies, for example the Southern Pine Inspection Bureau. ... Cutting your own lumber or using wood from your own trees can be satisfying and can save money in some applications. However, using your own wood for framing lumber may not be “worth it” in the long run.

Source :

http://web.utk.edu/~mtaylo29/pages/graded%20lumber%20and%20building%20codel.html

The key in the building code is this phrase :

In lieu of a grade mark on the material, a certificate of inspection as to species and grade issued by a lumber-grading or inspection agency meeting the requirements of this section shall be permitted to be accepted.

Sources : http://publicecodes.citation.com/st/ny/st/b200v07/st_ny_st_b200v07_23_sec003_par001.htm

Native timber. Rough-sawn lumber, timbers, and vigas, used for any load bearing application shall be identified by a grade mark of an approved lumber grading or inspection agency. In lieu of a grade mark, on the material, a certificate of inspection as to species and grade, issued by a lumber-grading or inspection agency meeting the requirements of this section.

Now for log houses, you have the Log Building Standards :

http://www.logbuilding.org/downloads.html

2000 LOG BUILDING STANDARDS
2.A.1. The minimum diameter of wall logs shall be
20 centimeters (8 inches).

2.A.1. Logs smaller than 20 centimeters (8 inches) in diameter
are unsuited to residential construction.

2.A.2. Green or dry logs may be used for construction.

2.A.2. For the purposes of this Standard, “dry” means moisture content equal to or less than 19%, and “green” means moisture content greater than 19%. Dry and green logs have different requirements for preventing sapstain, and have different shrinkage and structural properties that must be appropriately accounted for in design and construction.

2.A.3. Logs shall have all bark removed, and shall
be of sound wood.

2.A.3. Leaving the bark on logs promotes insect attack and makes scribe-fitting difficult. Eventually, the bark will fall off by itself, though by that time the wood has usually been degraded by fungus or insects, or both.
