Gain More Time With Rapid Prototyping - (USA)
by Berner Wumenthal Part of developing a new product is taking your best guess at how well it will do.

Informatics & Security Degree Program - (USA)
Hello folks. I'm from Ontario, Canada. I've decided to go into a program called Informatics and Security at Seneca College this September. But I am not particularly interested in programming. The type of job positions I would be after would be something like a network administrator. This is a 4 year degree program, and it doesn't focus on computer science or programming. Instead it focuses more on database administration, systems administration, and network administration. And there seems to be

Useful Research? - (USA)
In response to this post , NW asks: Before deciding what research projects to pursue (and, thus, before knowing what we will discover when we finish the projects), how do we know which projects are useful and which ones are not? Consider math and physics, two fields that are often seen as esoteric to most people, and two fields that many often question for their relevance or usefulness to everyday life. ("Why should we spend money on sub-atomic physics when we haven't cured cancer?) Mu

Digital Photography Masterclass, by Tom Ang, DK Books - (USA)
Guest Book Review by Alan Lillich (Conrad has a well-deserved week off) My oldest daughter lives in Illinois, I live in California. She recently decided to get a DSLR because her point and shoot camera was too limiting. I went looking for a good photography instruction book to send her, and found it in “Digital Photography Masterclass” by Tom Ang. There seem to be a lot of books still on the shelves teaching film photography, and a lot of digital photography books that spend too much space on

“Bengal’s Heart,” Lora Leigh - (USA)
Pros: Same hot sex Leigh’s fans love Cons: Temper tantrum-prone annoying leads and hand-wavy “SF” plot Rating: 2 out of 5 Review copy (uncorrected proof) courtesy of Penguin Group . Expected publication date: 8/4/2009. While I enjoy Lora Leigh’s Breed novels, some of them are better than others. Bengal’s Heart is my least favorite so far, and if it had been the first I’d read, I might not have continued. Lora Leigh’s “Breed” novels are all about genetically-engine

A Look at Weight Loss Infomercials. Helpful Information to Consider - (USA)
August 11, 2009 Only in America could billions of dollars be made selling weight loss products to persons who need to shed a few extra pounds. In a world full of starving persons, Americans seem to have emerged as a nation of overfed, under exercised fatties who can’t put down that bag of potato chips, stop eating that ice cream or refuse that second (or third?) helping of pasta.

Why Do Republicans Want to Give Nancy Pelosi the Pardon Power? - (USA)
Pardoner of the House? Is waterboarding torture? Charles Krauthammer argues today that because Nancy Pelosi was briefed about waterboarding in 2003 (after it happened), she blessed it. “Our jurisprudence has the “reasonable man” standard … On the morality of waterboarding and other ‘torture,’ Pelosi and other senior and expert members of Congress represented their colleagues, and indeed the entire American people, in rendering the reasonable person verdict. What did they do? They gave t
