After seen more than 20 Hollywood and independent films about the life and death of Jesus (Included Aardman's TV's clay animation) I went to see Gibson's The Passion last weekend and left the teather the moment Jesus started "getting it". Gibson's portraits the good-ol self possessed- enignmatic dignified Jesus/uberman doesn't appeal me one bit. Nothing new there. Im not the only one out there tired with this cliche of the dreamy-eyed handsome-kind-gentle-loving image of Jesus. Is there any insight or 9-Dlls-movie-communion/ redemption embedded with this blood-fest. That's hard to tell. The film Is just as revolutionary or money earning tool as any TV-Evangelist nowdays.

I download all my mail into a Linux box with program fetchmail. Then using the command line mail client I inspect at leisure each mail stored in/var/spool/account_name looking at the ASCII dump of the mail headers, the spoofed origins of the spam and the intricate word mixture used by spammers to trick spamm-guard programs. I Also inspect the ASCII dump of the binary atachments to look identify web sites and IP's to add to my firewall. then I simply delete all foreign looking mail that I do not wish to store in my brittle windows box. Most of the stuff gets wiped out. Finally using qpopper server my Windows box retrieves all sanitized mail from the Linux box into Outlook. Only honoring plain ASCII, jpegs and gifs.

Buy Chai tea with the last dollar

I just purchsed the Nexus laptop cooler
as an attempt to keep my hp pavillion 1.7 ghz laptop fan to turn on right away.
The laptop cooler drains the heat away through vaccum sealed pipes with fluid for condensation.
No moving parts and basic thermodynamics was the selling point.
Will it work? dunno Still in shipping.
My advice is to find something in the

My research on the vague news note lead to the following information:
Routers using BGP (Border Gateway Protocol) use
a technique called dampening to control amount a traffic a link generates.
Details:
When a link goes up or down, updates must be passed to any router using such link. Those updates bubble up if a link goes up and down to often causing unwanted high levels of traffic. A link gets dampened when it's activity (going up or down) is ignored for the reason mentioned above.
Exploit.
A false (link up/down) update message may get a healty linked damped by a router or group of routers halting all traffic through such link.
Of course, non of the above has to do anything w/
