Submission + - Preserving memories 1

An anonymous reader writes: My wife is dying of metastatic (stage 4) cancer. Statistically she has between one and two years left. I have pre-teen daughters. I'm looking for innovative ideas on how to preserve memories of their mother and my wife so that years down the road we don't forget the things we all tend to forget about a person as time passes. I have copious photos and am taking as much HD video as I can without being a jerk, so images and sounds are taken care of (and backed up securely). I'm keeping a private blog of simple daily events that help me remember the things in between the hospitalizations and treatments. In this digital age what other avenues are there for preserving memories? Non digital suggestions would be welcome too. Thanks.

no, that will not happen. The requirement is not just to show the card. the requirement is to SCAN the card in the reader. Every employer will have to submit electronically the results of the scan to DHS as proof that the employees are authorized to work.

Submission + - Ebay hacked, users personal information posted 1

An anonymous reader writes: This morning a hacker posted the personal contact information and credit card data of 1,200 ebay users on the eBay.com Trust & Saftey forums. eBay pulled the Trust & Saftey forums off line, but not before one user made a video of the hacked forums and posted it on youtube.com. eBay response is on the eBay chatter page, and seems to try and down play this "fraudster"'s activity.
