Under the terms of the contract Nasa does not accept delivery of the satellite until it is in its final orbit. If it gets there Nasa will redesignate it TDRS-9.
Who launched the thing? If they can't recover it will Boeing have to take the hit? Not a good year for the airline industry.
This reminds me of a site I used to frequent, it seems to be down now but the page can still be found on the google cache... some funny stuff there.
This was a good one.

IS THIS FOR YOU?
If you answer "yes" to ANY of these questions, then this business is definitely for you:
1) Do you already have a home office in place? (Personal computer, fax capabilities, answering machine, etc.)
2) Do you have an extra 5 - 10 hours per week to commit toward building your own part-time (or full-time) business?
3) Would you be able to read from a script, clearly, and with enthusiasm, a 2 - 3 minute introduction of our products? (NO "cold-calling" is required. Our prospects will call you!)
4) With our system, on average, every 15 calls you make will generate a sale that pays you a commission in excess of $1,000. Can you make that many calls per week? (Per day?)
We're looking for a few quality people with the work ethic necessary to generate a cash-flow for themselves of $2,000 - $5,000 per week, with the intent to increase that to over 5-figures per month, in as little as six months. Someone who can intelligibly read a short script to our qualified leads, and then turn the interested prospects over to our electronic sales medium. You will not be required to do any selling.
If you have the self-discipline to ignore the TV for a couple of hours per day, and if you're looking for a legitimate home-based business opportunity, that IS NOT multi-level marketing, or a chain-letter scheme, then please call our toll-free number, 1-888-123-4567 leave us a message, and we will get right back to you.
We market a real product, that pays real commissions to you, just for making the initial contacts. With our lead generation systems you'll always talk to people who actually WANT to talk to you.
If you answered "YES" to any or all of the above questions, and don't mind earning an extra $1,000, on average, for every 15 phone calls you make, then call this toll-free number:
1-800-123-4567 (Be sure and include the best time for us to reach you.)
You have nothing to lose, there's no risk involved, and you may be qualified to earn thousands of extra dollars per month.
Prosperous regards,
Krishna and Robert
P.S. It is SUGGESTED that you already have a functional home office situation. This greatly reduces your start-up and operating costs, and facilitates you being able to begin immediately. Please, serious inquiries only.
Hi..
Outside of the fact that I was laughing my body parts off at the fact that one of you is named "Krishna", I found some trouble answering the questions in your letter. I was wondering if you could review my answers and tell me whether or not your offer is a good idea for me. I'll just address your letter one segment at a time, if you don't mind.
1) Do you already have a home office in place? (Personal computer, fax capabilities, answering machine, etc.)
Kind of.....well, let me tell you a bit about myself...I live in an insane asylum...I have my own room, and my own answering service. Well, it's not really an answering service, it's another patient. She's an old lady who walks around wearing a tie-dyed nightgown and screaming at the top of her lungs. She says her name is Boris, but something tells me she's wrong about that. Anyways, she's in the asylum because she thinks that the heads of all bald men are actually drum sets. So, whenever she sees a bald guy, she runs and jumps on him and starts slapping the top of his head like she's Ricky Ricardo. It's funny to watch an old lady in a tie dyed nightgown do stuff like that. Anyways, she's good at answering the phones...unless a bald guy walks by while she's taking the message.
I do, obviously, have a personal computer....so that's no problem. I can use it whenever I'm not licking the screen. That's why I'm in this asylum, I like licking small appliances.....it's an obsessive compulsive thing. I really wouldn't even be in here if I hadn't started french kissing a microwave in the Sears Appliance Center.
As far as a fax machine....well, I flushed it down the toilet. It was cheating on me with the vending machine on the second floor.
2) Do you have an extra 5 - 10 hours per week to commit toward building your own part-time (or full-time) business?
Commit....it's funny that you should use that word. Actually, yes I do have that much free time, and I'm excited at the notion of having a home business, because I'd be making money, but I'd still have enough free time to masturbate while flipping through the Circuit City catalog.
3) Would you be able to read from a script, clearly, and with enthusiasm, a 2 - 3 minute introduction of our products? (NO "cold-calling" is required. Our prospects will call you!)
Are you kidding? Enthusiasm is my middle freakin name!! Hell, there's a lot of people here that would like to be salespeople. Hey, after I'm done reading the script, maybe I could have Boris talk to them! She's really convincing, unless she goes into a fit and starts screaming "ARE YOU BALD!?!?! ARE YOU BALD!?!" at the person on the other end of the phone. Don't worry, we'll try to medicate her. Then there's swingin' Eddy...he's in here because he thinks that Hoola Hoops are meant to be jewelry and because he was writing these letters to news anchors asking them if they were naked undearneath the news desk. Personally, I think that's normal....he really wouldn't be in here except he has a hoola hoop ass ring that he insists on wearing all the time. Poor guy....he can never wear pants....and whenver he sits down, he starts to roll away. He'd be a good salesman though, hell, he conviced me to get a hoola hoop nosering. It looks good, and it flies around in circles like a jump rope whenever I sneeze.
4) With our system, on average, every 15 calls you make will generate a sale that pays you a commission in excess of $1,000. Can you make that many calls per week? (Per day?)
This is where I run into a problem. The hoola hoop makes it hard for me to use a phone, and beyond that, I'm sexually attracted to phones and that means that I salivate and slobber on the reciever whenever I use one. I was wondering if maybe you could bring the customers here, and I could read them the script in person? I promise everyone here will behave in front of them, and we'll make Jake, (the naked lumberjack) put a cloth or something on top of ol' Timber. No bald people though, I can't stess that enough.
If you have the self-discipline to ignore the TV for a couple of hours per day, and if you're looking for a legitimate home-based business opportunity, that IS NOT multi-level marketing, or a chain-letter scheme, then please call our toll-free number, 1-888-123-4567 leave us a message, and we will get right back to you.
IGNORE THE TV!?!?! ARE YOU FUCKIN KIDDING ME?? Haven't you listened to a damn word I said? I'm NUTS!!! I have SEX with the TV!!!! You want me to ignore so I can talk to your stupid customers and tell them about your products. NO!! Otherwise we're good, this sounds like a great opportunity, bring them on by.

I don't believe someone hasn't posted this. I use PGP CKT and am VERY happy with it. It is built off of the last version of PGP that came with the source (6.5.8 Desktop Security, if i'm not mistaken), and they are currently on their 6th build (Build 07, which will fix XP problems is in Beta).
PGP CKT, comes fully loaded with PGPDisk, and PGP4ICQ, and the plugins for Outlook/Outlook Express, I'm not sure about PGPNet, I don't use it.
More to the point, what were you going to say that made you hit the reply button?
Good question... like my dad used to say when I would forget what I was going to do/say, "if it's important you'd remember it". Then one day when he asked my why I didn't do something he asked, I said I forgot and then added "but if it was important I would have remembered"... wrong reply!

Stating the obvious
Having the userbase from Morpheus off FastTrack will cut the ammout of files available to oter FastTrack clients like KaZaa, thus decreasing their popularity, and possibly forcing them to move to a new network.
If Gnutella scales well, it would be a good thing, if it doesn't...
It's one thing to write a crack for a buisness app that costs $500+, where the crack would only be used by people who wouldn't buy the program (if you needed to use the program in your business you'd want support etc). But cracking useful $20- utils is taking bread off the table of individual programmers who worked hard to create a useful app and are charging a reasonable amount and is plain wrong.
I remember hearing about a warez group that refused to crack apps that were under $20. If you can call any crackers responsible, I think that was pretty responsible of them.
