An anonymous reader writes: The real OS comparison as put forth by Microsoft. Apparently RedHat is the Linux and it is expensive, insecure yada yada and windows is awesome, secure and more cost effective. Unix sucks and is outdated so on and so forth. And the worst part is I followed a banner from slashdot to this MS comparison site were we can learn about how great Windows really is. Its more for entertainment value than anything but is it ever entertaining.

It is the most widely anticipated appointment of Barack Obama's new administration and today, after months of fevered speculation, the White House welcomed the new First Dog. With one hand round his youngest daughter Sasha, the President used his other hand to pet Bo, a six-month-old Portuguese Water Dog, as the First Lady Michelle and their other daughter Malia looked on. The lucky canine is a gift from Senator Edward Kennedy and his wife Victoria to the President's daughters. The dog was bred at the kennels in Texas and sold to someone who returned it."

An anonymous reader writes: There were a lot of H1-B articles posted on slashdot recently which are mostly making a case against h1-b. I stumbled on this study which lists the benefits of h1-b. The abstract is as follows "Most specifications find little impact on the invention rates of native U.S. workers, although a small crowding-in effect may exist. Most increases in U.S. innovation with higher H-1B admissions come through direct contributions of the immigrants themselves." the original study is at: http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/6097.html Another report is at: http://www.soc.duke.edu/GlobalEngineering/papers_skilledimmigrants.php
