I understand that that is old news but we do get some Canadian related material even if it is few and far between.
However, I must agree that Americans can be extremely US centric in their news. I see quite a bit of world wide information in news.bbc.co.uk but nothing like that on CNN. However, I must say that we have news that doesn't quite make the limelight that is US based that I feel should so it's not just Canadian news that is pretty much ignored.

.... more than made up for it by badmouthing the film. In it Gump talks about how he always causes trouble and that the movie was wrong about him. A Rather enjoyable read ( especially the part where Gump is in Iraq and they get Saddam.. but are told to bring him back because you can't have a war if you catch the bad guy )
Here is a link to the book on Amazon ( minus any refer link )

Just wanted to note that it was wrong in the review
Remember though that in "God: Emperor of Dune" we see that Leto shows to Siona his premonition of a fate waiting mankind. It seems that machines are the threat in that pemonition hence his desire to prepare to scatter mankind so as not to have all of humanity in one place. In the book he hints at machines being a threat again.
Here is a short story written by Herbert and Anderson whose story takes place before this book.
You see Xavier's parents as well as his brother and of course the Titans.
As for the remark about not mentioning the Mentats very much. I believe, in my humble opinion, that the head sorceress ( which is the beginning of the Gesserit ) husband is laying the foundation for it in that he is always seeking pharmaceutical ways to enhance men ( insert lame joke here ) so they can be on par with the sorceresses
Have your webserver set to it's default user permission but put a sticky bit that allows your script to run with promoted privileges. Of course by doing that you run the risk of security as well. What I would do is make a user that has the permissions you want. restrict to everything but what it needs to run and change and then set the sticky bit on the script so that when it runs it runs as the specified system account.
"Are there any "valid" techniques, at least valid as far as congress would be concerned to fight individual nodes".
It's called a civil suit. They've had this option from the beginning but don't want to use it. They have the tools they need they just don't want to crack down on individual users because it's bad publicity.
So I guess that 300 bucks for XP Pro was bought with the full intention of being open to attacks. While you cheerily installed it you thought about how you were open to l33t haxors and such.
Come on. When you purchase something you buy it with certain ideas. When I buy ( which I don't ) MSSQL then I expect nobody to get my data. When I buy ( another one I don't use ) Exchange I expect nobody else but me and the user to be able to read emails.
You don't buy a product with the expectation of it being crippled ( DRM aside ) and thus you ARE paying for security. I'm not a MS Fan, I'm not a MS Critic ( although lately I seem to be ) I just get pissed when I see a company charging for something that is presumed and expected to be included with the product.
"Windows runs an arbitrary set of applications, in an arbitrary configuration, with arbitrary devices, said Mundie. 'The operating system is designed to run on machines that are not designed yet.' While Microsoft could demand that it creates the drivers for all hardware, the industry would not accept that. 'Each time we accede to the reality of the industry, we accede to the problem,' he said."
Yep. All those string buffer overflows are obviously caused by the ram. And those virii that use Outlook automation obviously use the fact that Windows has to account for various pieces of hardware too.
And security cameras don't print out a warrant for your arrest and have it sent to your place of residence based on your (face, license plate, etc. )
Not really the same thing.
Security cameras are evidence. Radar guns are evidence but these "machines" encapsulate this and then make judgements based on the data they have (speed, picture, OCR ) and then react to that. As such they are giving "witness" that they noted these events ( you speeding, yes it was you in the car, yes it was tuesday, yes it was dark ) and such. However, with a person you can ask them ( did you really see me? Was it too dark? could you have been mistaken? ) you can't do that with these things. Hence the dilema.

I know.. nothing personal. He's just the posterboy when it comes to more indepth posts especially those that concern social ramifications.

Oh no. He has summoned the moderator John Katz.
RUN!

There is alot of interoperability and software that uses Word and Office automation so it's not going to kill it.
However, MS definitely isn't going to want to lose any market share to the home/student market who have no need for such things.

Actually it's Omnius.
I would agree that it would really suck if the name was Ominus. That would be extremely B flickish
