git clone from DreamHost kicking my butt!
I'm new to git. I own and have read the Pro Git by Scott Chacon. I can make repo's locally on my Windows 7 desktop and clone them. I can create repo's on my SSH enabled Dreamhost account and can clone them on my shared Dreamhost server.
For the love of God, I cannot clone a Dreamhost repo to my local Windows desktop! It is driving me nuts.
I have ssh keys set up and can log into the dreamhost shared server via my local machine within the bash shell, so my ssh seems to be set up correctly. But I cannot get a clone.

Prepopulating fields from user profiles on new event creation
Hi All,
I have a scenario that is baffling me and would like some help on how to tackle this with regard to Drupal 7
I have user role for which I want regular authenticated users to be able to schedule them for appointments (role = service providers). I want to have a field on the Service Provider's account profile in which the Service Provider (SP) can enter their hourly rate. Also, I have created a content type called "appointment" with a date field (based on the date module) so that anonymous users can schedule appointments with the Service Providers.

SANDcamp Event Sign Ups, Training, Agenda
Hey Drupalers,
Drupal SANDcamp 2012, January 25-28, in San Diego is shaping up to be a big success. We are expecting hundreds of executives, technical leaders, experts and users of all experience levels to participate. SANDcamp’s four-day agenda is filling fast:
Graceful response for unpublished node
I built an Ubercart site on Drupal 6 for a local company that sells vintage drums. Every product is unique, so they all get their own product nodes. When a product is purchased, the node gets unpublished. These guys have a pretty active presence on eBay, so items can stick around in Google or eBay searches for a while afterward, and these links can still get hit, resulting in an Access Denied page.
SCALE Booth for LA Drupal - Volunteer now!
The place to sign up for booth hours is here http://groups.drupal.org/node/200913
Like last year, it's a wiki, so select the tab "edit", and put in your name.
More at Tuesday night's Meeting on January 10th, 2012. At the library! See you there.
Non-Drupal: Macintosh Email Clients
I am asking this question here because I see many Drupal people using Macintosh systems. I am not a Mac user, but a client of mine is. He is currently using Entourage (came with Office 2004, 2008) to handle his email. It has been giving him lots of problems and he wants to consider other clients, and possible Gmail. He currently has email on his domain, but that can be redirected to a Gmail account.
