Happy Halloween All In the Enthusiast, of all places, it says a pair of Firebolts (XB9R and XB12R) are used in a new vampire movie (well it's Halloween right now, ain't it). Since it is a vampire movie I would see it anyway, but since Buell's are involved it is a must see for me. Maybe Buell's are becoming mainstream...Just one more reason to keep a tube framed Buell! Complete trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/newline/blade_trinity/trailer/ wheelie screenshots: An extra hour of Halloween this year...SWEET!!! 1313 |

I will see the movie simply for that fact. |

The Websense category "Streaming Media" is filtered. Damn filters. I really wanted to see that to. Maybe the movie will be on DVD by the time I get back. |

Brankin: What would the day be without wishing you a Happy Holloween. Enjoy your extra hour...it will, after all, be the "13th". You decide if you tack it on the AM or PM. Court |

Hi Court, Good point about the 13th hour! Almost, kinda, sorta, somewhat like being in Europe where 1:13 p.m. is displayed as 13:13. Plus to dyslexics, the 31st is the 13th... Anyways, it looks like it will be a GREAT day for a ride! High of 85° with an overnight low of 60°! A little bit unseasonable, but you won't hear me complaining. http://www.weather.com/activities/other/other/weather/tenday-details.html?locid= 28560 1313 |

Blade kicks major . what could be better knowing the "Daywalker" rides a Buell XB !!! Wesley Snipes is a huge sportbike fanatic in real life. He once got a triple digit ticket, and for a while ran from the law. How cool is it the Buell was chosen. |

In the clip you also see what looks like the rear tire of a 12, that amber is unmistakeable. Wonder if they used a 9 firebolt and a 12 lightning? |

Are you tired of getting kicked around by your local CISSP type of person? One Linux/BSD (I use an old Solaris unit) box, Squid, SSH from work to home machine, change your work proxy settings, you get the world. All the network guys see is a SSH connection. No monthly explanation for why you spent so much time on BWB :-) If you're the least bit savy, you will need a bit of UNIX like exposure for Squid config, this is your ticket to non-logged browsing. It's easy but don't get yourself in trouble :-) |

Unfortunately the bike will make it to the movie but some dumb sound guy will add an inline four howl to the soundtrack instead of the V-Twin rumble! Hollywood never gets that stuff right. |

Bigdaddy.. Do that from my network, and we still see exactly what you are doing, including HTTPS sites. It can be done, but only by pretty serious IT departments. We can do the SSH as well, but you would know it if you had previously connected before we turned it on. |

I forwarded one of the open ports at the office to one of my machines at home. Now I open an RDP session from work on that machine at home. If they start monitoring that port, close it or whining about it, I'll switch to another port with secure rdp. Close all ports and I'll figure out another way to browse the web they way I want to. |

reepicheep - What are you doing to look at the ssh tunnels? Man in the middle? Another stealth option that avoids port forwarding (well, sort of) is to run the browser on the remote machine and tunnel the X connection over ssh. You need some sort of X server on the viewing end, and a pretty fast network to make this feasible though. |

Yup, man in the middle. In a nutshell, whoever controls the infrastructure will win, either by intercepting, or by blocking that which cannot be recognized. Steganography could be an attack against that sort of thing, but would be a lot of work. AAAck. Sorry for hijacking the thread. I thought Blade 1 was a good entertaining monster movie, or a nice long music video, I was never really sure which. Never saw blade 2, probably worth a rental sometime when I am bored... |

Hey Reepicheep, Sweet implementation and needless to say I'm shocked you're running it. It's a very rare thing -- just did 400+ site surveys (my group, not me) and saw zero instances. Jim, Ping me later. I need to bring you some Blast related 'stuff.' Greg |

All, My fault, not Reepicheep's, for the thread hijack. Sorry. Greg |

nah the XB has the perfect exhaust note for flicks. They'd be nuts to change it. Then again ,those bozo's put in screeching tire sounds on a dirt road. |

Whatever it sounds like, I'm just glad to see it in a good flick like Blade and not some steamer like Batman. |

Unfortunately the bike will make it to the movie but some dumb sound guy will add an inline four howl to the soundtrack instead of the V-Twin rumble! Hollywood never gets that stuff right. Now I have noticed just the opposite. In the first Spiderman movie when Peter is talking to Mary Jane outside the diner right after he discovers she works there, a bike goes by that has an inline motor but they made it sound like a V-twin. Dont recall the specific bike right now. |

I am the admin for my company's WebSense filter, and I can tell you, I have better things to do than check up on people' browsing habits. Most companies buy a web filter to limit their sexual harassment liability, not to use IT to manage their employees time. That is left up to management, as it should be. |

http://www.cinemovies.fr/fiche_extrait.php?IDfilm=2470 Video 8 "Motorcycles" shows them starting up their XB's. Pretty cool, but not enough. I'm think I'm going to have to see this just for the Buells. |

I like the Blade movies anyway but having the Buells is a real plus. |
