ST. PAUL, Minn. — http://www.kare11.com/pdf/OPA090697-60301.pdf" The Minnesota Supreme Court on Tuesday ordered that Democrat Al Franken be certified as the winner of the state's long-running Senate race.
On behalf of Minnesota I sincerely apologize to the country.

TechCrunch has an article from an interview with General Kevin Chilton, US STRATCOM commander and the head of all military cyber warfare.
Who protects us? "Basically no one. At most, a number of loose confederations of computer scientists and engineers who seek to devise better protocols and practices — unincorporated groups like the Internet Engineering Task Force and the North American Network Operators Group. But the fact remains that no one really owns security online, which leads to gated communities with firewalls — a highly unreliable and wasteful way to try to assure security."

"Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign is allowing donors to use largely untraceable prepaid credit cards that could potentially be used to evade limits on how much an individual is legally allowed to give or to mask a contributor's identity, campaign officials confirmed."
Wow, what a great scam! No wonder why he didn't want public funds for his campaign.

What did you guys (Slashdot) do to upset ExtremeTech.com. They have an article about 25 Great Geek Websites. Curiously Slashdot is not one of them.
