| 00:11.02 | goozbach | why is it so difficult to find a campsite and go camping? |
| 00:11.20 | Heartsbane | too many people |
| 00:12.15 | sinuhe | goozbach: Because you aren't looking for a good fishing spot. |
| 00:13.02 | sinuhe | I don't need no stinking campsite... |
| 00:14.19 | goozbach | I need a campsite for 7 people (including 3 11-year scouts) |

| 16:23.33 | unum | s/if/than if |
| 16:25.25 | levi | elg: The requirement of an hour of 'moderate' exercise (anything from brisk walking to gardening) doesn't sound terribly onerous. |

| 16:26.59 | elg | no, it's not too bad, but if I may expose myself I don't get that much moderate exercise |
| 16:27.01 | levi | From the article, it looked like it was just a statistical correlation between those who did that much exercise and those who kept the weight off. Anyone who can keep with an exercise program like that probably has some extra willpower. |
| 16:27.23 | levi | Which would help in controlling calorie intake as well. |
| 16:27.39 | elg | absolutely. exercising regularly is definitely a big help if you're trying to lose weight for lots of good reasons |
| 16:27.45 | elg | but i contest that it's a requirement. |
| 16:28.40 | levi | Right, but willpower is an absolute requirement for maintaining weight loss, and keeping up an exercise program is evidence of that kind of willpower. |

| 16:44.37 | elg | all in my head |
| 16:44.44 | elg | and herlo's or someone |
| 16:44.57 | levi | Yes, I figured that much. |
| 16:45.05 | levi | Since you haven't written it yet. |
| 16:45.31 | elg | sort of social weight loss site. compare your progress with others, help motivate eachother, or at least give you reason to mock your friends. |
| 16:48.14 | jsmith | elg: Yeah, herlo was the one doing that |
| 16:49.41 | elg | we discussed some ideas, I have some code for generating graphs etc. |

| 16:53.46 | unum | that guy recruited me to take his job when he quit here to do that |

| 18:11.29 | bonez45 | Anyone here good with web site creation? |
| 18:11.42 | sinuhe | bonez45: I would imagine many of us are. |
| 18:12.07 | bonez45 | I ask as my mother's site, hosted and created by another group, went down recently. She fears she'll lose her clients if she can't get her site back up soon. |
| 18:12.54 | bonez45 | It's a simple site, and was written before, optimized more or less to IE, and I am hoping to convince her to instead have someone put it together .. browser neutral, so it will work on Firefox et al. |
| 18:13.31 | bonez45 | it's about 10 pages.... mostly an information site, with part of the site members-only.....she has a survey on it, and a contact sheet .. |
| 18:17.34 | sinuhe | Doesn't sound difficult. I imagine anyone here, for a price, could do it. |
| 18:17.36 | bonez45 | sinuhe: any further comments, on what I am asking? |
| 18:18.29 | bonez45 | well, the prior site....which I thought was a bit lame, not very refined... my mother paid $300 or so, just to code the pages... and then was paying about $49 per month for hosting/maintenance.. each, for two sites, i.e., $100.00 per month... |
| 18:19.04 | bonez45 | I know.. she didn't pay much to put up her site.. I think I could wrestle together a site like the one she had, albeit, making it work with firefox and other browsers, not just with IE |
| 18:19.57 | bonez45 | what would it cost her to help her.. or me to put together a site like she wants.. ? if I were to do the dirty work.. and flesh it out and then get some tips on how to optimize things....? |
| 18:21.15 | unum | bonez45: what kind of help are you looking for? |
| 18:21.21 | unum | you can ask questions in here for free |
| 18:21.49 | unum | and someone here would probably be willing to host for a lot less, or atleast tell you where to host |
| 18:21.51 | bonez45 | ok.. I want to keep it simple.. I guess I just need to get the content.. for her site.. and then start at it..right? |
| 18:22.03 | unum | westhost is <$5/month |
| 18:22.09 | unum | Xmission is $10 |
| 18:22.16 | unum | bonez45: do you have a domain? |
| 18:23.03 | bonez45 | I'll ask.. |
| 18:23.07 | unum | #uphp is full of people who are good with web stuff |
| 18:23.23 | bonez45 | is that Utah php ? channel devoted to php coding? |
| 18:23.37 | unum | oops I meant #uphpu |
| 18:23.39 | unum | but ya |
| 18:24.13 | bonez45 | ok |
| 18:24.31 | unum | I'd get the content and hosting provider first thing |
| 18:24.43 | unum | REALLY likes linode |
| 18:24.51 | unum | but that may be more work than you are looking for |
| 18:25.00 | unum | I wish I would have started using them years ago |
| 18:26.51 | bonez45 | is linode a hosting outfit? |
| 18:27.43 | synic | yeah, I think they are rather expensive though |
| 18:29.46 | unum | $20/month for a virtual server |
| 18:30.05 | unum | so 5x west host but you have complete control and can have as many domains as you want |
| 18:30.19 | bugQ | that's pretty reasonable, VPS's can be pricey |
| 18:30.40 | unum | ya I've been very happy with them so far |
| 18:30.49 | unum | I've been using them for about a month and a half |
| 18:33.27 | bugQ | wow, feature for feature, it's comparable to slicehost, but with more RAM/HD/bandwidth |
| 18:34.56 | unum | it was recommended on the uphpu list a while back, and I figured for $20 what did I have to lose. So I tried it out(actually cost me less than that because the prorate). |
| 18:35.02 | unum | And I have loved it so far. |
| 18:48.50 | sinuhe | Xmission is an excellent host. I also like modwest. |
| 18:50.35 | unum | last time pete was in here he said they trying to set up virtual hosting |
| 18:50.57 | unum | but if you just want web hosting I'd definetly recommend xmission |
| 18:51.04 | encryptz | unum: he's still here (pashdown) |
| 18:51.09 | pashdown | hola |
| 18:51.15 | unum | pashdown: hi |
| 18:51.31 | pashdown | thanks for the endorsement :-) |
| 18:52.01 | unum | pashdown: I did my html class at the library through xmission a couple of weeks ago, I think it went really well |
| 18:52.27 | unum | emily higbee was really good to work with |
| 18:53.44 | pashdown | cool |
| 18:53.48 | pashdown | how many people? |
| 18:54.25 | unum | about 12 I think |
| 18:57.10 | pashdown | good |
| 19:01.06 | sinuhe | I've used Xmission since Dax sold inconnect. No complaints. |

| 19:17.58 | bonez45 | sinuhe: so, did my mom get a steal . for the web site she had set up? I know she paid 'nuthin' for it.. though the hosting sounds a bit high...suggestions? |
| 19:20.08 | sinuhe | Sounds a bit pricey for commercial, but perhaps average for a private consulation. However, it sounds like a shoddy job was done either way. IE specific websites are crap, and any self respecting web developer doesn't do that when the site is intended for public consumption. |
| 19:20.31 | sinuhe | (Internal use sites are a different matter.) |
| 19:21.58 | unum | the hosting was high. for a static site with out a lot of custom art work $300 sounds about right |
| 19:22.14 | bonez45 | ok..... |
| 19:22.33 | unum | except for the whole ie only thing. it was probably done in front page which wouldn't take too long |
| 19:31.38 | levi | Wow, there are rumors that Microsoft will actually put something based on its research OS, Singularity, in a product. |
| 19:31.42 | levi | That would be really cool. |
| 19:40.42 | bonez45 | but then, Front Page would render is very IE centric, right, and prone to fail if opened using Firefox et al? |
| 19:51.26 | Tene | yeah |
| 19:53.31 | bonez45 | well, then we DON'T want them creating it with Front Page.. |
| 19:53.50 | unum | I was saying that's probably what was done before |
| 19:53.51 | bonez45 | aside from the fact it creates so much more BS behind the scenes.. all those crazy codes..... |
| 19:53.59 | bonez45 | yeah, ok....for prior site |
| 19:54.00 | unum | does everything by hand these days |
| 19:56.22 | bonez45 | :) |

| 20:05.46 | bonez45 | ah, there ya go....! |
| 20:10.36 | findlay | bonez45: my spine has loosened up over the past couple of days which makes me glad because it's been really tight the past few years |
| 20:10.47 | findlay | probably stress or something |
| 20:11.18 | mrpull | few years of stress? |
| 20:11.23 | mrpull | dang man |
| 20:11.29 | bonez45 | stress'll do that.. certainly |
| 20:11.33 | findlay | well, stress generally |
| 20:11.44 | findlay | and I've been exercising a lot the past several weeks |
| 20:11.56 | Tene | I've got some upper back pain. I don't know if I should be worried or not. |
| 20:12.19 | bonez45 | a little stress is good, no stress on the long bones of the body (femur, humerus, et al) results in brittle bones.. but too much stress results in high blood pressure, heart trouble and a host of other maladies |
| 20:16.07 | mrpull | should i be concerned that the "recommended videos" widget on my igoogle page ALWAYS recommends anti-mormon videos? |
