Norah Jones keeps banging away on the piano keys. Others are trying to keep up. For the third time in four weeks, her album “Not Too Late” is ranked number one in the Billboard 200 charts.

The headline says, “Beaver Returns to New York City after 200 Years.” That is one really old beaver. Where could it possibly have gone in 200 years? It beats Moses’ record of 40 years in the wilderness. It’s good to see that beavers are back in NYC where they once were a vital part of [...]

Firefox just recently upgraded their browser to version 2.0.0.2 to correct several security bugs. Here’s the release notes for the latest version. One thing I really appreciate about the [...]
Here’s a good article about spam from Information Week. Her last point was eye opening to me. She makes a very solid point.
Don’t open spam. Many pieces of spam contain HTML code which will open a connection to a Web server operated by the spammers. When you connect, you have verified that you opened [...]
US Men’s National Team left back Jonathan suffered a knee injury which will sideline him for at least six weeks. Bornstein featured in the US win against Mexico a couple of weeks ago.
