Poor Microsoft: "Windows Genuine Advantage cracked" and it only took hackers a couple of days to do it.
How we know it is a slow news day: "Variety of big fish in oceans decline".

"Cassini confirms a dynamic atmosphere at Saturn’s moon Enceladus"
"Ice Lake Found on Mars". However, "there is no convincing evidence for martian biology".
Thanks for stopping by and reading my blog! Happy Sunday! (...not looking forward to tomorrow being Monday)
Welcome to my randomly updated blog about - well lacking any scientific words to describe it - stuff. May or may not be limited to: computer science, knitting, books, movies, or music

"Empty Room"
Music to blog by: Empty Room by Marjorie Fair
Quote for today: "The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function." - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Happy Weekend! I actually had a chance to catch up with my sleep - I think I sleep like 9 hours or something. It was pretty ducky. Now I am trying to actually get some homework out of the way - take-home and my project slides. But I figured I would post a little blog entry for your reading pleasure.
On a complete side note: I have been listening to Empty Room by Marjorie Fair over and over again. I get that way with songs. I will listen to them over and over again. Next week it will be something different. Empty Room by Marjorie Fair was available last week from iTunes (one of those free downloads). I am tempted to purchase the whole CD.
News You Might Use:
Lost a planet? It is believed that a 10th planet has been located. It is located 9 billion miles away from the sun and larger than Pluto. Ducky.
HP and iPod are no longer going to work together.
Now, the US wants to mess with time. Favorite part of the article "The plan would simplify the world's timekeeping by making each day last exactly 24 hours. Right now, that's not always the case". Of course, the U.S. had proposed this in secret to the UN - so of course everyone and their dog knows about it.

The Da Vinci Code Movie
If you haven't been yet you should go to the The Da Vinci Code movie website. It takes a little bit to load, but it really ducky. The music in the background is ducky as well. You can check out what they have of a trailer here.
What are you waiting around here for? Go forth and see totally ducky stuff...

"I realize as an adult that not everyone shares my view of the world. And with an issue as hot as gun control, I'm prepared to accept a lot of different points of view as being perfectly valid. But we can all get together on the grenade launcher, right?" - Josh Lyman (The West Wing)
Hello! It's Friday - I don't have class today. I can stay home and work on the my last take-hone for the class. Ok, that's just sad how much of a "life" I don't have. Maybe one of these days I will - nay probably not. Anyway, I decided today's blog will be about odd or weird stuff. So enough rambling from me here are the links:
