[Dynagroove] Last friday thanks and so sorry

you know what - it was just fun to be back at boardners again. 
yeah it would have been nice to see ecbm but i think the guys
inside held things down pretty well.  a girl even took off her
skirt and was swinging it around over her head.  that has to be
a good sign, right? ;)

and sweet jesus - muse dnb patio wasn't so shabby.  people
are LOYAL to them.  i like the mix of the dnb patio and house
inside.  it was just packed out there.  and i mean that in a good
way.

overall, i like the return to boardners.  the changes they've made
to the inside are nice and it flows a little better.  i think that it is
a real testament for the return when so many other LA house
promoters were in attendance, along with other friends and familiar
scene faces.  it is always nice to see that kind of support.

Computer Failure Triggers Worst Flight Delays Of The Year
Air traffic controllers at two major U.S. airports had to move flights in and
ut with hand-written airline schedules.

A federal computer system that processes pilots' flight plans went down for
two
ours Friday morning, causing a domino effect of problems and hours of delays
or travelers.
A spokesman for the Federal Aviation Administration called Friday the worst
ravel day of the year so far.
But you wouldn't have to tell that to any of the thousands of people spending
ours waiting in an airport or strapped into a seat, sitting on the tarmac
aiting to take off.
An Atlanta computer system that processes pilots' flight plans and sends them
o air traffic controllers for domestic and international flights failed at
:57 Friday morning, according to Tammy Jones, an FAA spokesman. A mirrored
ack-up site in Salt Lake City, Utah immediately took over the Atlanta systems'
perations, just as planned.
However, veering from plan, the Salt Lake system couldn't take the full weight
f the load and began to stagger under the strain. Jones said in an interview
ith InformationWeek that real-time flight information that should have been
oving quickly through the system began to back up and lag.
"It was moving processing very slowly," said Jones. "The air traffic
ontrollers had to process information manually."
That's a lot of hand-written plans. Jones calculated that the system generally
andles 50,000 to 55,000 domestic flights every day. That number doesn't
nclude international flights coming in or out of the United States. The
omputer backup quickly translated into a flight backup. Without the necessary
light plans in order, planes simply couldn't take off.
So the lag continued until the Atlanta system was brought online at 10:52
a.m.
However, New York's airports -- giants La Guardia and John F. Kennedy --
didn't
ome back online so easily. Jones said the New York airports struggled to
egain their connection to the Atlanta processing system, and they didn't get
ack online until 12:48. That left air traffic controllers at two major U.S.
irports trying to move flights in and out with hand-written schedules.
By 5:30 in the afternoon Friday, La Guardia was still experiencing an average
f a three-hour flight delay, according to an advisory on the FAA site. JFK
lights were delayed for two hours and 42 minutes, while Newark International
irport in neighboring New Jersey was backed up for two and a half hours.
The FAA did not yet have information on how many flights were delayed or how
any passengers were affected. The cause of the computer glitch is under
nvestigation.
Jones, however, was quick to point out that the downed computer in Atlanta
asn't the only cause of Friday's travel trouble. A line of harsh thunderstorms
tretched from Canada down through Texas for much of Friday, further delaying
lights across the mid-section of the country.
"As far as delays, it's a pretty bad day," said Jones. "We can't distinguish
at
his time what percentage of the delays were caused by the computer system and
ow many were caused by the weather."
