I recently took a trip to Lawrenceburg Indiana to go on a gambling riverboat. To my suprise, all the ATMs in the place took credit cards without needing a PIN. The machine must have acted as a point of sale rather than a cash machine. So when it comes down to it, anyone with a stolen card could withdrawl money off the card with no PIN needed. The machine charged a percentage fee for each withdrawl.. unlike the regular $2.00 ATM fees. Off the top of my head I believe the charge was $2.00 + 2.9%. Anyways.. I found these ATMs shocking.. anyone have any experience using one?
Combine this new exploit with this old one that lets you read any file off someone's harddrive and I think Microsoft might be able to market these as.NET features.
Your right, it has nothing to do with the rage, disaffection and abandonment they feel.. but it has everything to do with the solution these kids find... now everyone knows who they are.
The media does nothing less than make all these kids who shoot up their schools anti-celebrities by creating a circus around every shooting. Kids who are getting bullied at school lash out in this manner to get attention.. and what better attention than worldwide attention.
Let some kids shoot up their schools a couple more times and give them no media coverage, no attention, and I guarantee the shootings will stop. Of course the media will never do this because big news is big money. And the bigger deal they make of these shootings, the more they happen... and the more they happen, the more the media profits.
Now I can resume my website that publishes the names and addresses of microsoft employees in hopes that it shall bring them to an early demise. MUAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
My lisp instructor recently gave a keynote speech at Los Alamos entitled When are we going to get it right. The speech does a great job covering many of the security issues regarding double click and just the overall state of security on the web. Its a good watch if you have the time. You can see the whole thing in realvideo from the link above.
"If the launch is successful, India will become the sixth nation (US, Russia, China, Japan and the European Space Agency being the others) to build and launch a GSLV class satellite."

Canadians.. is there anything they aren't the best at?

I have no idea what this would possibly accomplish or signify, but I'm sure Katz could come up with some bullshit theory about how this experiment is related to Columbine, mass media tyranny and his movie review of the week.
I don't know if anyone is curious, but the article sparked the question for me: How successful were Goddard's launches? I found the following info here in Goddard FAQ.
Which of Dr. Goddard's rockets flew the highest?
Dr. Goddard launched rocket L-13 on March 26, 1937 and the peak altitude that it reached was approximately 1.7 miles off of the ground in 22.3 seconds. By comparison, his first rocket, which he launched on March 16, 1926, reached an altitude of only 41 feet and landed 184 feet away 2.5 seconds after it was launched.
I am mining a cave to the center of the earth. After I install the air conditioners I am going to open an amusement park in the core. Cooling the core down slowly should not harm anything.

It seems to me that using molemen to lay fiber optic cable would be cheaper than using robots.. they know the sewers better than any robot.
