MIT students have turned an entire building into a speaker, resonating with sounds from the upper level of the Earth's atmosphere. Every day, through Friday, Sept. 16, from 12-1 p.m., the building will broadcast an abstract sound collage generated from research data collected in the ionosphere.

The perfect camcorder for kids and drunks: Mattel's Vidster, an $80 tough plastic camcorder.

SpaceWeather.com has some great shots of the recent auroras that were visible as far south as Arizona.

The RIAA and MPAA have joined the backers of Internet2 to find new and interesting ways to restrict content and sue users.

Shalome is on a distinguished road
In a truly stunning move, Bush has admitted responsibility for the government's failures in the wake of Hurricane Katrina.

Three students at UC-Berkley used a 10 minute audio recording of a keyboard to figure out 96% of the characters typed during the session.

Someone lost their job yesterday: a Department of Water and Power worker fucked up pretty hardcore, cutting power to most of Los Angeles for over an hour yesterday. I got a nice long lunchbreak.

I'll have to make my way over during my lunch break and check it out.

Karl rove, thats why Bush admitted guilt. At least thats what I think. Anywho, shalome or kenny. I'm about to sit down this week/weekend and write about 10-15 letters on various topics, but I need some topics to research and address.

I'm hoping to write local and national legislature members, along with members of the Cabinet of the White House. If you would please help spread the word and gather some things to bring up, I'm doing this as an independent thing and would enjoy some backing. In other words, if yall could post something...it would be dandy. Thanks again.

Here's one excellent subject -

How the rights of property owners in the US have been significantly erroded by the recent supreme court decision that grants near complete authority to local governments to excercise emminent domain over property for any reason they can come up with. Not just roads and other vital infastructure. They can now cease your home, tear it down, and put up a strip mall if they deem it a "benefit to the community."
