			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<blockquote><p>Update: Vodafone has posted an <a href="http://www.business.vodafone.com/site/bus/public/enuk/support/10_productsupport/laptop_connectivity/40_software/software/p_mac_osx_lion_vmb_preview.jsp">update</a> on their site: <a href="http://www.business.vodafone.com/site/bus/public/enuk/support/10_productsupport/laptop_connectivity/40_software/software/p_mac_osx_lion_vmb_preview.jsp">Preview Version v4.06.01.00</a> should be compatible with Lion (10.7) although it is currently under testing.</p></blockquote>
<p>So here I am, just installed Mac OS X Lion (10.7 build 11A511) and the Vodafone application is refusing to start after the update.</p>
<p>The latest version of Vodafone Mobile Broadband is refusing to install (get version 4.05.07.00 from <a href="http://www.business.vodafone.com/" title="Vodafone UK">Vodafone UK</a>) and there are rumors that a previous version 4.01.08.00 could do the trick, however it is nowhere to be found&#8230;</p>
<p>Luckily there is always competition that can come to the rescue &#8211; this time not by changing providers, but by providing their software for us to use :)</p>
<p>Go to this 3 website <a href="http://bit.ly/mCQTBk">http://bit.ly/mCQTBk</a>, download the matching software (btw, I use a Huawei modem to connect) and install it. You may need to select Custom when prompted for the provider, and then again you may need to manually enter the APN, username and password &#8211; you should be able to find those on their website.</p>
<p>Enjoy browsing the web in Mac OS X Lion over 3G!</p>
<p>My modem is: Huawei K3765, and for Vodafone Romania you should use the following settings:</p>
<ul>
<li>APN: internet.vodafone.ro</li>
<li>Username: internet.vodafone.ro</li>
<li>Password: vodafone</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Scriu acest post in urma participarii la <a href="http://www.orapamantului.ro/">Ora Pamantului 2011</a>. Da, m-am alaturat pentru al treilea an acestei initiative &#8211; am stins lumina in casa, am deconectat laptopul de la reteaua electrica si am inchis televizorul.</p>
<p>Am fost alaturi de cei peste cateva mii de sustinatori ai site-ului amintit mai sus pentru cateva minute si, poate mai important, am sustinut o initiativa in care cred: reducerea consumului global de energie din surse ne-regenerabile.</p>
<p>A fost o experienta placuta, la fel ca si in anii anteriori; parca prea scurta; si ca majoritatea proiectelor de acest gen &#8211; cu rezultate ce nu pot fi cuantificate cu usurinta. (apropos! <a href="http://www.osmcluj.ro/ia-initiativa-stop-tbc/">joi a fost si ziua internationala de lupta impotriva Tuberculozei</a>!).</p>
<p>Exista totusi o sursa de informatii relevante, ca poate fi analizata pentru a cuantifica impactul Orei Pamantului 2011. Pe site-ul <a href="http://www.transelectrica.ro/">Transelectrica</a> se gaseste o sursa de date referitoare la <a href="http://www.transelectrica.ro/openflash/grafic.php?ofc=date.php">productia si consumul de energie electrica al Romaniei</a> actualizata la fiecare 10 minute.</p>
<h3>&#8220;Material si metode&#8221;</h3>
<ul>
<li>Se imparte intervalul 20:00 &#8211; 22:00 in 4 jumatati de ora, tinand cont ca Ora Pamantului a fost stabilita intre 20:30 si 21:30.</li>
<li>Pentru fiecare din acestea, de pe site-ul Transelectrica, se aduna consumul in zilele de 26 martie 2011 (Earth Hour) si 19 martie 2011 &#8211; 7 zile mai devreme, pentru comparabilitate</li>
<li>Se calculeaza variatia in valoare absoluta a energiei electrice consumate in aceste intervale</li>
<li>Se calculeaza variatia in valoare relativa</li>
</ul>
<table align="center" cellpadding="2px">
<tr>
<th>Interval</th>
<th></th>
<th>19 martie <br />[MWH]</th>
<th>26 martie <br />[MWH]</th>
<th>Variatie consum <br />[MWH]</th>
<th>Variatie consum <br />[%}</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>20:00 &#8211; 20:30</td>
<td>Pre-Earth Hour</td>
<td align="right">23,636</td>
<td align="right">22,835</td>
<td align="right">(801)</td>
<td align="right">-3.4%</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>20:30 &#8211; 21:00</td>
<td>Prima jumatate</td>
<td align="right">23,297</td>
<td align="right">22,384</td>
<td align="right">(913)</td>
<td align="right">-3.9%</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>21:00 &#8211; 21:30</td>
<td>A doua jumatate</td>
<td align="right">22,836</td>
<td align="right">22,051</td>
<td align="right">(785)</td>
<td align="right">-3.4%</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>21:30 &#8211; 22:00</td>
<td>Post-Earth Hour</td>
<td align="right">22,188</td>
<td align="right">21,311</td>
<td align="right">(877)</td>
<td align="right">-4.0%</td>
</tr>
</table>
<h3>&#8220;Rezultate&#8221;</h3>
<p>Pentru comparabilitate s-au ales intervalele mentionate din zilele de sambata din doua saptamani consecutive. Se constata un consum mai mic cu aproximativ 800 MWH/interval intre cele doua zile, ceea ce reprezinta o scadere a consumului cu 3.4 pana la 4.0%. Scaderea de consum este observata in toate cele 4 intervale alese, inclusiv in jumatatea de ora inainte si dupa Ora Pamantului 2011.</p>
<h3>&#8220;Discutii&#8221;</h3>
<p>Eh&#8230; aici situatia se complica, analiza de mai sus poate este limitata de numerosi factori ce ar trebui luati in considerare, dar eu as fi inclinat sa spun ca, desi soarele a apus cu 10 minute mai tarziu pe 26 martie decat pe 19 martie consumul nu s-a redus semnificativ in Ora Pamantului 2011.</p>
<p>Lucru care de altfel nu este de mirare intr-o tara in care o initiativa laudabila ca aceasta, isi gaseste doar 2000 de sustinatori (vezi rezultatele pool-ului de pe site-ul organizatorilor) in conditia in care in 2007 erau <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_in_Romania">peste 3.2 milioane de locuitori conectati broadband in Romania</a>.</p>
<p>Pana si petitia denumita <a href="http://www.petitieonline.ro/petitie/impotriva_demisiei_lui_mircea_badea-p63601041.html">Impotriva demisiei lui Mircea Badea</a>, din 2008, insotita de textul &#8220;Sa vedem ce petitie strange mai multe semnaturi&#8230;cea pt demisia lui Mircea Badea sau aceasta&#8230;.&#8221; are mai multe semnaturi&#8230; 6000 la ora actuala.</p>
<p>Acestea fiind spuse, ma duc sa imi pun laptopul inapoi in priza pentru ca ma lasa bateria&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My iCal has behaved very well in handling calendars from my work Microsoft Exchange account up until one of the recent updates from Apple.</p>
<h4>The problem</h4>
<p>For a few months now (I think after updating to 10.6.5) iCal begins hanging shortly after I sync my calendars. Restarting the program brings all Exchange calendars in offline mode and after making changes, when I hit manual refresh, an error pops-up: &#8220;The account currently can&#8217;t be modified&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://blog.1on1.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/iCal-error.jpg" rel="lightbox[517]"><img src="http://blog.1on1.ro/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/iCal-error.jpg" alt="The account currently can&#039;t be modified" title="iCal-error" width="602" height="250" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-518" /></a></p>
<p>This is quite ironic as the first feature that Mac Os X 10.6.5 update brings is: &#8220;Improves reliability with Microsoft Exchange servers.&#8221;</p>
<h4>The solution</h4>
<p>Tired of clearing the iCal cache, resetting settings and re-adding the Exchange account? The solution is quite simple: run iCal in 32-bit mode.</p>
<p>Identify the iCal app in the <em>Applications</em> folder, right-click, <em>Get Info</em> and make sure you check the &#8220;Open in 32-bit mode&#8221; option. Close the Info window and restart iCal. Voila! Works like a charm!<br />
