  1. Re:Battery life? on Segway-Based Robot Opens Doors · · Score: 4, Interesting

    This robot's design is actually pretty cool. If you go to this site you will see a bunch of really cool pictures, and even a video about the Cardea. It has three arms, which may seem awkward at first, but actually it is a pretty ingenius design. The "extra" arm isn't really its own arm, it is more of an extension of the left arm that allows the Cardea to open doors and hold objects better.

  2. Fluxbox on Local Area Security Linux 0.4a · · Score: 5, Informative
    The window manager that LAS is using, fluxbox, is a truly great window manager. I think that it is one of my favorites. It basically is an extension of the blackbox window manager. I was actually reading a review on it earlier.

    Overall, this is a great new window manager, that will perform well on lower end machines.

  3. Security Advisory on RPC DCOM Worm On The Loose · · Score: 5, Informative
    The security advisory can be found here.

    After reading the advisory, it looks like this one is going to be a bad one. I'm no expert, but I would guess that this thing is going to be around as long as code red was (and I'm still getting code red hits in my logs!)

  4. Another great article on Chimera Twins Story · · Score: 5, Informative

    Anther great aricle about Chimera twins that I was reading eariler is here. Man this stuff is really interesting. It actually says that about 8% of non-identical twins are chimera twins. That's actually pretty high.
