Ya that is pretty cool you can test like that. Just stopped in to say I love wp-super-cache and I bet itj't even more than 50%;

Cheers

Re: GREEN CARD: USCIS is apparently in deep trouble

Immigrationdirect2010 — Tue, 15 Mar 2011 04:46:56 -0000

Filing an application or petition with USCIS can seem like an overwhelming task. Applicants are well advised to do their homework ahead of time. Avoiding common mistakes and oversights can save a lot of time and anxiety while the petition or application is pending with USCIS.

There is another problem using Gutter Helmet. If you do not have a roof of substantial pitch, the Gutter Helmet winds up not having a downward pitch to it and it essentially forms a dam where water lies instead of going over the edge and into your gutters. I wish I had never put the damned expensive stuff on my house. I live in the Pittsburgh PA area and in winter I not only get normal ice build up in my rain gutters, but I also get as much as a 2" buildup of ice on top of the Gutter Helmet. Last winter I had considerable water damage from that buildup of ice caused by the Gutter Helmet. And to answer your logical question, I also had the traditional 4' ice guard layer under my shingles. The Gutter Helmet caused the ice buildup to go even higher than the 4' ice guard. Next spring that damned expensive Gutter Helmet is coming off my house.

If you haven't used a gutter guard before, I would definitely use Gutterglove gutter protection. I installed it on my home because it keeps out all the leaves, pine needles and even roof sand grit from entering your gutters because it uses a very fine micro mesh for filtering all debris out. I don't have to climb a dangerous ladder to clean out my gutters ever again. Yahoo! You know, they also got the highest rating in a national consumers magazine from testing numerous gutter guards. I just wanted to recommend them and pass on this tip. Here's their website: www.Gutterglove.com.

No more gutter cleaning!

It looks like the regex for your fix will break for IE10.0

I'm a bit surprised that the Apache software foundation would make these changes on an article that the author admits he doesn't know if the problem exists.

Thanks for the analysis on it! Very nice work. And its great for me to be able to serve up a faster web experience for my users. and hopefully saves me time in doing it..

I did have a bit of a drama actually installing it, only time, But, even with the error prompts, for someone that's not programing and building websites every day, they may have some trouble actually installing it.

have a great day

I think Gutter Helmet should be SHUT DOWN!!! Terrible system. Expensive system that does not work and just try and get someone to come out to fix problems. They just dont return your calls. We all should be sueing them for our money back.

Re: Moleskine: Made in China

Cezmf — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 15:08:36 -0000

Not only is regrettable to see our beloved Moleskine being made in China over the worse, at what price?
It would be the exchange of a plate of rice by taking advantage of cheap labor while Europe lacks employment here?

And also sad to see a company take advantage of the Yen artificially under-valued and only think about profit.

Thankfully, in many countries are already doing serious business as the Moleskine in the nineteenth century, ie, with true artisans

Our Gutter Helmet gutters are clogged, and we can't find a dealer anywhere near us. Went on email address to find a telephone number...none! Emailed to get quote for install to see what we could find out about company...they said sorry we have no dealers in your area, we will keep your number for when we get a dealer in your area. Guess you get what you paid for...should have gone with Leaf Guard.

I am also in the same boat. Larry our salesman put in this system. Could not doit and finally heads office sent his son!! No better. In aug/2010 replaced it as new eavestrough people could not believe the holes Larry made in eavestroughs the slope and sinking of our sidewalk from gutter helmet not installed properly. This company does no overseeing in Canada and Larry is a scam artist far too overweight too attempt this type of work. He would not answer repeated calls when it wouldn't work!!! New gutters are a dream and the old from Gutter Helmet are used as an example of how not to ever buy into this scam!!

In response to "Why I will not recommend gutter helmet"...I am also not having a good experience. Rain is running down between the roof and the gutter into my bedroom window. I can't get anyone to come to the house to look at it. The lady handling the calls and scheduling the appointments is rude as hell. The system is supposed to be guaranteed for life, but they don't seem to want to help customers maintain and/or fix problems. The inconvenience of climbing a ladder on a hot summer day sounds great now compared to the inconvenience of dealing with poor workmanship and un-professionals.

Fixed in http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?v...

It should come out in the next 2.3.x release, and (should) be backported to 2.2.x soon.

Delayed? Yeah. It took somebody to point out this blog post. I hadn't heard of the issue (logged in our tracker as #49484).

Re: Google Chrome: One thing we do know… (HTTP Pipelining)

Alex — Tue, 13 Jul 2010 14:08:41 -0000

"Pipelining only works when the remote server supports it, if the remote server fails to pipeline then your page will actually load much slower."

Why would this be? I've never seen it be "much slower", nor can I think of any reason this would be the case.

"This is the case with IIS 4 and 5 which are common enough to cause concern. Also it turns out that some mods to Apache don't pipeline properly, resulting in garbled output."

That's the real reason nobody uses it: at best, it's much faster, but at worst, it fails horribly.

Here-here Stephen. Whether you are in a "consultant who sells" role responsible for driving PS bookings, or a delivery consultant "gettin' it done," you have to constantly sell your client on your ideas, your approach, your expertise, and your value. Selling doesn't stop when the ink dries on the contract.

Great post, Thanks,
You can test pipeline using this free HTTP pipeline tool and test the response return from the web when sending different HTTP Get or post with pipeline:
