Another case of news media sensationalizing what really happened. There are two spiders in the habitat (spider habaitat, not ISS human habitat). The goal is to see how two spiders will interact in micro-gravity.
For about the first 24 hours after launch only one spider was seen. After that BioServe Space Technologies at CU Boulder (the group responsible for the habitat) located the other spider. It had simply been outside of the view of the camera.
Is it any coincidence that Saddam was "captured" on the 14th of December?
Me thinks he was rolled out as a diversionary tactic just like good ol' Osama will be proclaimed dead from kidney failure or "captured" shortly before the '04 election to improve Bush's ratings.

I would add a few more however...Bittorrent, CDex, and WinZip come to mind.
For Linux: Everything should really be included with your distro, especially if you choose something as comprehensive as Mandrake. However, I would go with a flavor of Debian.
I am in Buffalo, NY and parts of the city are out. I just left work because we had no power, but we have it at my house! Thank God I didn't lose my uptime!
It is a great place to live. I am an American and I went to school there for a semester. I can't wait to go back! It is a beautiful place with great people.
And for those morons that think it is Australia, it is not too similar... It is 1500 miles away and much more like England.

I can't take credit for coming up with a formula like that, but in one of my courses in college we designed an algorithm to park a robotic car.
Actually, all our source and some videos are on my website... http://djonce.dyndns.org/pburgh_projects.htm
