Trends & Innovations - Monday (Investor's Business Daily via Yahoo! News)

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 15:44:25 PDT
A new computerized combat glove helps soldiers navigate digital maps and activate radio communications while holding their weapons or a steering wheel. A sensor-laden glove developed by startup RallyPoint has four push-button sensors in finger parts, and a sensor on the index finger works as a computer mouse. The sensors also can send commands. When it is set to "map mode," a sensor in a finger ...

The dance between Iran and USA gets closer

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 15:57:46 PDT
Apr 12, 2008 http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/JD12Ak03.html US edges closer to engaging Iran By M K Bhadrakumar April is the cruelest month, breeding Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing Memory and desire, stirring Dull roots with spring rain. T S Eliot's famous opening lines from The Waste Land come to mind as Washington confirms that Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is heading for the Middle East to attend an international conference regarding the Iraq situation, in Kuwait on April 2

Small and Light PCs About Ready for Mobile Music Making

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 16:02:38 PDT
Musicians have generally had to shy away from slim, light portable PC laptops, but watching the specs on these machines, I’d say that’s finally changing. Take the upcoming Lenovo IdeaPad U110. Like the Apple MacBook Air, you have to rely on an external optical drive, but otherwise, this machine comes pretty close to being a worthy mobile music machine. If shedding pounds and size is important to you, there’s no question you could make this box work on the road. Lenovo IdeaPad U110 Early Spe

Launch of a Side Project 5ones - Actions Sports Hub W/ a Little blog Case Study Mixed In April 28th, 2008 Last Summer Cameron Olthuis and I met for the first time in person at SMX Advanced Seattle and we quickly became friends as we found we had a lot of things outside of seo in Coming. We both love to surf, he lives in my hometown near San Diego and I live near his home town in Utah and we both had been thinking for years how we wanted to use our seo/promotion skills to launch something in t

Worried About Identity Theft? Use Ziszor to Shred Documents

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 16:33:44 PDT
I worry about identity theft. So far I haven't been a victim, but you never know, because we're all at risk. And as careful as we are, exposure is sometimes not even our fault. For instance, last year my credit...

Australians just say no

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 16:36:12 PDT
Australians just say no April 29th, 2008 Harry Clarke, the only economist in the country who consistently blogs on drugs (sorry Harry, couldn’t resist) posts on Australian drug use trends. It’s a fascinating read. Frankly, I’m a little surprised that usage of most drugs seems to be falling. With rising incomes and (in most cases) declining prices, it seems an extraordinary testament to law enforcement efforts. Posted in Health economics | No Comments »

Newbie, not n00b

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 16:45:21 PDT
Yo all, I'm new around here but I'm fairly handy around forums in general (even if I don't post too often without reason). I like anime (duh), mainly what my friend gets me into- and since she's a regular subscriber to CFUD, that's a varied lot. Most recently I watched "Brave Story", which was a sweet movie; I've also seen some FMA, Cowboy Bebop, Grave of the Fireflies, InuYasha, Sailor Moon, Gurren Lagann, etc. I'm open to talk with almost anyone, save for idiots (who are merely stupid), and sh

The Minors have their say

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 17:23:48 PDT
This morning the six minor parliamentary parties appeared before the Electoral Commission to make their case for broadcasting time and money, and to answer questions. In a fit of civic mindedness I decided to cover the hearings. So don’t bother calling me until this evening. The crowded media bench consisted of myself and TVNZ’s Jess Mutch. I did think NZPA might be here. Maori Party Somewhat rambling as the talked about the number of speeches their MPs had made in the House. This lead the C

Parents Watching Kids?

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 17:31:27 PDT
If you talk to people you’ll hear all about how the world is going to hell because parents aren’t watching their children anymore. I can hardly go to church, have lunch or momchat on the playground without hearing this come up. Irresponsible parents do everything from let their children play with the neighbors to allowing their children to watch commercials on TV. Don’t parents know commercials are full of sex and mass murderers inhabit next door. It’s such a load of crap. It’s revisio

The Future of Law and Economics, Part 1

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 17:34:16 PDT
I’m very interested in the history, the present, and the future of the law and economics methodology and movement. Recently, I’ve been giving some thought to the direction of the movement, especially as it currently exists in the legal academy. Some of my thinking has been inspired by this post from Larry Ribstein, the comments to this post at Prawfs (especially those from Brian Leiter and Kate Litvak), and Steven M. Teles’ book on the Rise of the Conservative Legal Movement, each of which high
