This is their report from last year on what kind of defense contractors are being targeted and why. (PDF Warning 2011-unclassified-trends.) Social engineering has generally always been the weakest link in a good secure system, but can still be deterred with strict security policies. It's not really a matter of if you'll get infected, but a matter of when. I've heard of incidents where companies have been infected for months without realization before the FBI stepped in to stop the further transmission of gigabytes of sensitive information.
If you think you or your company has been infected by foreign or domestic threats, go ahead and contact your local FBI office. They'll work with you in a cooperative investigation and guide you to prevent a similar incident from reoccurring. Despite what the movies show, the FBI does not come in and just take control of your network. You're still in charge and nothing happens without your consent.
More specifically, Akamai is a content distribution company that serves as a local mirror for it's customers and their customer's clients. You'll see them everywhere from streaming video at Yahoo! to deploying Windows Updates with Microsoft. You would be surprised with how much content is delivered to your computer from their servers.
That's one thing Microsoft did right with Exchange 2007. They built it entirely around their new powershell CLI and then built a GUI for it. The GUI is limited in compared to what you can do with the CLI, but you can get most things done. The CLI becomes extremely handy for batch jobs and exporting statistics to csv files. I'd say it's really up there with BASH in terms of scripting, data manipulation, and integration (not just Exchange but WMI, SQL, etc.)
They tried to do similar with Windows 2008 and their Core feature, but they still have to load a GUI to present a prompt...
As a father of five, I can testify that as long as you don't abuse it, computers are just as healthy and stimulating as a block of legos. My two year old spends most of his time with cars, blocks, and books; but he enjoys getting on the computer as well. We password protect it so he can only get on with our permission, but he has his own account configured with links to youtube videos of planes and bugs, toddler friendly websites, and games such as Minesweeper and Portal. We fully supervise when he is on the computer and limit how much time he can be on it, but overall it's quite beneficial. He no longer has a paranoia of bugs and he's improved quite a bit with identifying different types of colors and shapes. We credit his ability to recite his ABCs to his Vtech and the games we play with him, but the reinforcement from the computer certainly helps.
Regardless, no matter how a child is raised, it is mostly important to be involved with their day to day actions. Watching them soak up information and apply it is a huge testament to how incredible they are, which is also why it's important to remain involved and direct them.
But it still doesn't hurt to install you're favorite flavor of Edubuntu so you don't have to worry about keeping them breaking anything important. Sure they're old enough to use the adult version under close supervision, but with this they have more options to explore without risking damage.

If the priest was performing services similar to Best Buy's I could see this being valid, but considering the context is a completely different field, wouldn't this just be thrown out? Or am I confusing trademark with something else?
"We've done a number of tarballs from Florida, Key West, Miami and so forth, none of which so far have matched the Deepwater Horizon," Gronlund said. "The tarballs that have been found on the beach in Florida are fuel oil."
I'm trying to find out what exactly Google Earth is actually useful for???
I mean, Google Maps, sure I use that all the time to find where something is, directions how to get to it...on my iPhone, it even shows traffic loads.
I click Google Earth...it is neat how it zooms down to where I'm at from outer space..but after that...what?
As others have pointed out, it has a real value in the GIS community. Not so much for the actual work and planning, but for distributing our planned work in a format that's easily viewable.
Real life example, we're currently searching off of Brazil for Flight 447 and, while we use professional tools for the actual planning and searching, we also have our scan lines, the debris field, and the last known location all exported out into a set of layers that's easily opened in a KMZ file. For a quick look at what's going on, it's perfect.
We were in a similar situation when we wanted to migrate away from IE6. We have several client sites that we must use that are IE6 only and were not compatible with IE8's backwards compatibility.
The solution we came up with was to deploy Firefox throughout the company with IETab already installed with a list of rules to load incompatible pages into an Internet Explorer tab within Firefox. This is completely transparent to our users and the majority of web browsing is done with Firefox.
Its not that "the need for the users to have a friend that they can goto with their questions", but rather Linux users need more friends. Lets admit it, we don't have many that we've met in person.
Yes, but the problem as I view it isn't so much the transitional phase, but the need for the users to have a friend that they can goto with their questions. Windows users are so incorporated into Microsoft's operating system that the majority of users like to deem themselves as experts. This provides a large 'friend support' base that is easily accessed by other Windows users for the majority of day-to-day problems and warnings that they receive. Until Linux has an adoption rate similar to Windows, the 'friend support' base that people actually know will be quite small, and especially dwarfed to that of Windows. And until we can get the support to the same comfort and convenience of Windows, the adoption rate of Linux is going to me limited to those technically inclined enough to do basic troubleshooting on their own or follow instructions on Ubuntu forums.
A very chicken vs egg type situation. Ubuntu has done a great job to make the intuitiveness and ease of use of Linux better which has helped shorten this gap and increase the adoption rate, but to become highly adoptable outside of the IT crowd and their friends, more vendors and shops will need to improve their support for Linux; and this is something not easily done with a large number of available Linux flavors (kudos to Ubuntu and Debian for creating a standard widely adopted and kudos to Dell for basic Linux support.)

DSS are already our cyber detectives and can bring a great deal of wealth into what to expect with these types of attacks.

I do whenever I need my Star Wars Fix. Just telnet to towel.blinkenlights.nl.

Luckily I can afford to blow ~$100.
I eagerly anticipate a PayPal transaction. Thank you.
I don't know. Probably?

Then again, IANAL

I think the pirates are winning.
The problem with Florida isn't BP, but more likely ships illegally dumping.

I'm surprised that there hasn't been a mention of rpiquepa

Not entirely accurate.
Google anonymizes data that is older than nine months, unless said data is tied to a Google account.
Spy Hunter was rebooted in 2001 for PS2, Gamecube, Xbox, and Windows. A sequel was also released.
Anyone else remember this game? Came out same time as Descent, but I found it to be quite more enjoyable.

Maybe, but it's not like there are not plenty of oppurtunities to utilize.

Yeah, nevermind...
Posted a Story is different than Submitted a Story That Was Posted
I already have a few achievements listed, but some that I would expect (such as Posted a Story) is not listed.
How far back do these things go?
I'm more interested in the $300 price tag, though still doesn't do much good without a set of specs to go with it.
However, I do like the idea of it being magnetic mountable to a refrigerator.
