"BBCNews - NASA Tests Laser-Powered Plane" hrmm interesting.. This does seem like a good idea, but how much energy was used to keep the plane in the air? is it economical? does weather affect the laser? theres so many good questions that go unanswered with these uninformed reports.. ah well

"Excite - Man Kills Friend, Drinks Blood" ghah! yeah... when a dead movie actor (who played a vampire in a movie), visits your home, and tells you to kill you bestfriend, you know you should take your own life.

"News.com - Web-based Music Pirate Gets Jail Time" See this is the stuff thats unnacceptable. Selling pirated cds is a terrible thing, much worse downloading mp3s. but yeah, this guy got what he deserves, but my real question is, why was it only a $3330 fine? why not more?

"Ananova - Flat Capped Pensioner Steals Hundreds from Bank" yup, its that simple, find a busy street corner with a bank on it, walk in, order some money to be put in a bag, and walk out.

"eBay - Year 12 English Essay on Goatse" lol, someone actually wrote an essay on the Goatse guy, i love the little 'review' page featured in the auction, too bad i missed the end, i'd have liked to have read it, to see what could have been said..

"NewScientist - Subversive Code Could Kill Off Software Piracy" now heres an interesting idea, copy protection that makes games increasingly difficult to play, i wonder if companies will even bother releasing demos anymore, since this game model will clearly create the same kinda "drive" and "lust" for a game once you get addicted to it. anyway, we'll see how this works; after all CDKey technology (with centralized key server) seems to work pretty good.

"News - Student Faces Suit Over Key to CD Locks" Followup on the Copy Protection thingy by SunnComm. Rediculous.

"BraveTree.Games" this is a pretty rad ass game, too bad it takes FOREVER to load :(

"Ananova - Underwear' Can Detect Heart Attack and Call Ambulace" lol Wireless networked underpants.. I cant wait to see someone cluster these together, in some sort of redundant lingerie array.

"Happy Tree Friends - Halloween" happy tree friends rule.

"Eircom.net - Bill Gates Answers Canadian Cop's Plea" whoa~ Down with Child Pron!

"Straight Dope: Whats the 'Scroll Lock' Key on my Computer For?" Yeah, i remember back in 1987 having to user the scroll lock key to edit GW Basic/Basic code on my 8088, heh but yeh, im surprized that they still use it, since i havnt seen a purpose for it in more then a decade, but then again, they're still using floppy drives aswell.

"Technology Insider - A Linux Distro for Barbie" oh god, i hope this is a joke :)

"Excite - Would-Be Thief Has Electrifying Shock" lol, stupid canadians :)

"WorldNetDaily - U.N. Rules Canada Should Ban Spanking" OH THANK GOD WE HAVE SOMOLIA BEHIND US! but seriously, if we dont hit our kids when they do something wrong, how will they learn right and wrong? I was spanked/hit when i was a kid, i know the difference between right and wrong.. But look at kids today, in their HipHopHats, and Eminem Stylin' clothes, walking around like they're own the planet, talking on cell phones to their "homies" about "poppin caps" at their local "BK", when really they should be at home, doing home work, or, being beaten cuz they shouldnt dress like they just robbed a walmart..

"Ananova - Ghettopoly Board Game Upsets Black Leaders" ha! i'd play this game. hell monopoly gets boring with its rigid rules, and bland playing figure/pieces. Ghettopoly could be a welcome change to that.. now i do admit, if young black kids start playing this, they may become more motivated to use such terrible stereotypes, but for older people, i cant see how this would hurt. But yeh i'd love to setup "projects" instead of hotels, and crack labs instead of houses :)

"CNN - Thieves Steal Playable Version of Half-Life 2" Things are not looking good for good'ole'gabe.

"Deinsea - First Case of Homosexual Necrophilia in the Mallard" heh, Talk about a minority.. A Homosexual, Necrophiliac Mallard.. Too strange to live, too rare to die.. LONG LIVE THE FREAK DUCKS! (i think im losing my mind again)

"eBay - Uncle Bobs Glass Eye" the description on this auction... is priceless....

"Improb - The Fastest Man on Earth" whoa i just watched a special on this the other day, High Speed Impacts (on history i think), wicked footage, but yeh, see i like speed, but the whole, slowing down at such a fast rate, where your retina's detach from your eyes.... thats a bit too fast

"PenisCheek.com" rofl, i must admit, some of these penis cheeks are pure art. check it out, anyone who's had a marker, in the presence of a drunk/passed out person knows what its like :)

"CNN - Man Sentenced for Selling Body Parts" FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE... Although, half a million bucks, for selling body parts is a pretty lucrative industry... But seriously, if theres one thing i will always respect, its the dead. They are the only things that cant stand up for themselves, so they need other people to stand up for them. Honestly, messing with the dead has gotta be the worst thing you can possibly do..

"Yahoo - Vivendi's Halflife 2 Game Delayed by Code Theft" Rofl, HL2 will be delayed indefinatly.. just wait for it. by the time it actually gets released, ID will have already done the Doom4 engine. Seriously, yeah it sucks that your network/security guy didnt pickup on this earlier, but theres no need to bitch and moan about it, Wipe the tears from your puffy red eyes, suck up what little bit of pride you have left, and finish yer damn game.

"The Register - Intel, AMD, and Apple to Test On-Chip Water Cooling Tech" errr. sounds like a good idea... But i've seen people beat up laptops, to a point where the casing is all cracked up, and i know if there was a water/fluid resevoir in that laptop, it prolly would have been busted wide open, and the laptop would be useless.

"CNet - Shift Key Breaks CD Copy Protection" lolz, go BMG Security is job #1. i must admit, auto running software from an audio cd is pretty sneaky, but anyone who knows anything about computers (and runs windows) always disables autorun. FOILED AGAIN!

"PirateMod.com - Avast! Ye Scurvy Dogs" lol pirate goth clothing.. awesome.

"CNN - Son Swappers Flock to Invitation-Only Internet" See freenet is neat, but its not anonymous enough. But i must say, i do like where this P2P network stuff is going, Waste is superneat, heavy encryption, traffic masking, and fast searching/indexing, If these apps continue to evolve at the rate they are now, we should have feature packed anonymous/encrypted/traffic masked applications by xmas. Feer the future of the internet.

"Ananova - Teacher Literally Throws Schoolboys Out of Classroom" rofl, Now this is how teaching/punishment should be done.. Angry, Depressed, Middle-aged teacher, has some noisey kids in her class, she gives them 1 warning, then she tosses their asses right out the window.. Awesome!

"Yahoo - Sony Shows 'Crossover' Video Game machine that Records DVDs..." HAHAHA! Let me just say.. that for 900$usd you could buy 4 boxes, or a kick ass p4 multimedia machine. Sony has really pooched this one, I will admit, having an ALL-IN-ONE gaming machine+tv tuner is rather tempting, but for 900$usd, i could buid one of my own, and have it do alot more then just record tv and play playstation games.

"Excite - Suicide at Rock Concert Postponed" I'm still on the fence about this one. I think its cuz i hate Shock Rock, Seriously, i was tired of this when it was called GlamRock in the 70s (keep in mind i wasnt born till the late 70s, so the 1 year exposure i had was enough to turn me away from it).

"Escher's "Relativity" in LEGO" lego rules! but yeh check out the bottom links for more lego 'art' heh

"Wired - Game Biz Mystified By Code Theft" See, this is why gaming companies need to hire me.. An IT Security Geek, just to keep company secrets safe from the prying eyes of hax0rs. Just to let all you gaming companies know, im currently looking for work, please send offers to creator@technine.net thx.

"Best Photos" the first one, of the fish, and the second of the bear rule.

"Local6News - Family Angry Over 500-Pound's Burial" Uuuuh, Buring a fat woman, in an unclosable coffin.. Talk about dececreation of the dead.. isn't this sort of thing punishable by death in some countries? but come on, i couple play devils advocate on this one too, Why let yourself get to be as big as this woman was; being overweight is not a natural thing.

"Yahoo - Tiger Mauls Magician Roy Horn In Las Vegas Show" rofl. i would have loved to have seen this happen..

"X-Tremities - Stainless Steel Gomco Circumcision Clamp" errr. i have no idea how this works. but it doesnt look happy... and the fact that its "Adult size" just doesnt seem right...

"New York Post - Hogging, a Popular Sport in Cleveland" ghah! Chubby chasers~ I know a few guys who do stuff like this, but its funny, cuz they think they're the king shizzile, yet they pickup fat, ugly, old women heh.
