When you think about it, the touch is a near perfect platform for stealthy attacks. As the article states, put the thing in a fake wall plate on a power switch and attack until the device is found. No phone account, so the device is close to untraceable. Just don't give it your name :)

Submission + - Microsoft and Yahoo Reach Deal (adage.com) 3

e9th writes: We know that Microsoft failed last February in its attempt to buy Yahoo. Now, Advertising Age reports that they've reached a deal. Instead of a buyout, the two will enter into a revenue sharing agreement, and Bing will become Yahoo's default browser. The meat of the AdAge article can be found here, in Yahoo News.
This may give Google something to worry about.

Seriously, I think that you are thinking to hard about this. You successfully got an interview, thus you are most likely capable of fulfilling the job. True, people make snap assessments based on looks, but it is unlikely that this is the criteria you are being failed on. My thoughts are that you are seriously lacking in self confidence (likely since you have no confidence in your appearance) and this is showing in your interviews. Forget about your looks and show the prospective employer that you are confident in your abilities to accomplish the job s/he wants filled.

Visualizing the Ideological History of SCOTUS 151

langelgjm writes "An interesting exercise in quantifying and visualizing ideological shifts, the website ScotusScores.com tracks changes in the ideological history of the US Supreme Court from 1937 to 2007. Ideological positions are quantified using Martin-Quinn scores, and the chart highlights the often-bumpy transitions (Thurgood Marshall to Clarence Thomas), as well as tendencies within each Justice's career."
