"If you picked the word 'jihad' out of a conversation," Tice said, "the technology exists that you focus in on that conversation, and you pull it out of the system for processing." According to Tice, intelligence analysts use the information to develop graphs that resemble spiderwebs linking one suspect's phone number to hundreds or even thousands more.
It can be argued that people who don't want to have their conversations monitored will not use keywords such as these that tip off the eavesdroppers or technology that recognizes them.
And conversely, people may use meaningless conversations with many keywords to delay the processing of these investigations.
In Brack's group however, the name of the game is exclusively Mandriva Linux. In fact, it should be noted that this Mandriva deployment is the largest in the world.
"In terms of [Linux] distros for the overall lab though, we actually run more Red Hat Linux," Brack said. But, regardless, that's still a lot of Linux on the desktop.
So let me get this straight, the name of the game is exclusively Mandriva Linux, but they actually run more Red Hat Linux?
Is Mandriva really exclusive to the game? or is that actually Red Hat? I'm so confused.

I don't want a computer program diagnosing me at a hospital even if it is built on solid Bayesian probability models
Actually, you may want to rethink that sentiment. The hospital that incorrectly diagnosed my depression also used Bayesian probabability models which it turns out, benefited me greatly. You see, these models turned out to falsely diagnose my mental disorder as a simple kidney stone.
Upon finding out (with a second opinion) that this was indeed not the case, I consulted my lawyer and sued the hospital for medical malpractice. The argument was that by using their computers in erroneously diagnosing their patients with Bayesian probability algorithms, they were endangering my health and welfare. After winning the lawsuit, I am now $14 million dollars richer and my depression has finally been cured! Thanks Thomas Bayes!
I don't live under a bridge and eat little children, really.
The reason it is taking so long to fix vulnerabilities in my best estimation is that they have many different applications/OSs to test these patches with, while at the same time are trying to ramp up the efforts for a smooth release of Windows Vista. Attacks against Windows PCs are increasing by the day and it is probably much more time consuming to fix the myriad of these vulnerabilities than what it was say 5 years ago. But that is just a guess.
Redmond is taking at least 25 percent longer to issue patches for "critical" vulnerabilities, now averaging around 135 days to issue a fix.
It wasn't necessarily because it actually took longer for them to fix these new vulnerabilities, rather, their marketing department just wanted you realize the immediate benefits of installing Microsoft Anti-Spyware beta.
sxybtrfly99: So you like my personality, I can send you a photo.
manstud45: Yeah, U R totally cool, I really like chatting w/U. Can IM me the pic?
sxybtrfly99: Sure, right away. I have something I have 2 tell U.;)
manstud45: It's kool, Im sure I can handle it:)
sxybtrfly99: I sent U my photo. Bi the way, did U ever see the movie "The Crying Game"?
manstud45: What is this?!?!? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE??? MY PC IS ALL MESSE
No offense or anything but you should resize the photos and the Notes balloons in the article so they are more readable. I am having a hard time making out the text.
Interesting, I think you should write the producers of the History Channel's 'History's Mysteries' and ask them how could they have gotten it all so wrong? I am astonished at how you know more about Area 51 than their writers did.
Just for fun, can you post some of the links you have seen about the 1-2 meter resolution photos of Area 51? We all would love to see them.

I was listening to the radio this morning and they had a story on NPR about this fraud. They said it not only hurt the reputation of the S. Korean lab, but also when it was reported that they had 'cloned' a human embryo, funding dried up for other similar legitimate research labs (such as Massachusetts' Advanced Cell Technology) as well.
But seriously folks, the search engine works rather well. Its interesting to note that the ads on truveo are by google, and http://video.google.com/ is another viable alternative.
Even though we are just getting started, we have already indexed an extensive collection of web video that you will not find in any other search engine.
Google will soon take care of that.
When I first asked this question of how long CDs will last, I was told about 70 years.
I was also told that to lengthen a CDs shelf life, always store them vertically in a cool dry place, and clean them from the inside ring to the outer edge in a straight line.
I found an article from the Optical Storage Technology Association and they say it depends on the initial CD quality and handling.
According to this article, unrecorded CDRs last about 5-10 years, manufacturers claim recorded CDRs 50-200 years and recorded CDRWs 20-100 years.

Jim Morrison did extensive research into this phenomenon, way back in 1970.
"While it's nearly 30 chapters in length, most of them are short and focused, making them easily digestible and highly useful."
It also goes well with a cup of Java, fried Kalamaris and a side of Perl pasta.
