Cisco Router Hack Inspires New Patching Religion
ancientribe writes "The dirty little secret about patching routers is that many enterprises don't bother — for fear of the fallout any changes to their Cisco router software could have on the rest of their infrastructure. But the recent discovery of a way to easily hack these devices has put pressure on organizations to change their ways and patch. This article in Dark Reading gives tips on how to patch without taking down the network, including input from Cisco's own director of IT on how Cisco itself handles router patching."

Chinas central bank on Monday proposed replacing the US dollar as the international reserve currency with a new global system controlled by the International Monetary Fund
- Russia too: It is necessary to work out and adopt internationally recognized standards for macroeconomic and budget policy, which are binding for the leading world economies, including the countries issuing reserve currencies - the Kremlin proposals read.
- President Barak "The Teleprompter" Obama is deeply connected to corruption, Rahm Emanuel (Radical authoritarian Statist whose father was part of the Murderous Civilian Killing Israeli Terrorist Organization known as IRGUN), Connected to Rod Blagojevich (Rahm inherited Rod's federal-congress seat), Connected to Ayers, a man who promotes the concept that civilian collateral damage is ok in a war against freedom, Preacher Jeremiah Wright, who is himself a black-elit
Couldn't you just say that Obama is controlled by the same people as Bush and then link to The Obama Deception documentary?

Perhaps that's an attempt at humor, but you know, it's getting pretty trite either way :\

Religion has done humanity a lot of good, however true you take its various forms. Sure it's done us a lot of bad too, but such is life. Science has certainly done us a lot of harm, as well as the good we tech-minded people usually prefer to look at. Give people a break. We're all trying ot make it in the world, and "faith" does help a lot of people cope. Hell, I'll go so far as to say that religion serves most people better in making their way in the world than all the over-prescribed anti-depressants, etc. Still, liquors the best solution
Well, you may be right in some cases, although here I have been "let down" by both religion and Prozac. Basically my point is that changing the way one thinks about one's life is a much better cure in most cases than are the common anti-depressants (which it is hard to argue aren't over-prescribed). I'm glad the medications are there for the people that need them, but I know in my case a good, swift kick in the ass would have helped me more than the Prozac my psychiatrist prescribed me. (I knew something was off when I decided that it was better for my life to skip class and sit on a park bench for hours a day - sure it made me happier, but it couldn't have lasted - I wouldn't even have been able to afford the medications if I took that path!)

We all deal in different ways; most religious people are not extremists or fundamentalists - they are able to draw strength from the ritual and community that their church provides. I truly believe it something that needs to be discussed without resorting to the facile argument of "religion bad, science good." Any thoughts? Seriously, I enjoy these discussions
