Volcano Cam!
The U.S. Geological Survey has a web-cam surveilling Mount St. Helens---VolcanoCam!
"This is an image of Mount St. Helens, taken from the Johnston Ridge Observatory. The Observatory and VolcanoCam are located at an elevation of approximately 4,500 feet, about five miles from the volcano. You are looking approximately south-southeast across the North Fork Toutle River Valley."

I believe that a scientist looking at nonscientific problems is just as dumb as the next guy. --Richard Feynman

A9.com - Amazon's Trojan Horse
A9.com - Amazon's Trojan Horse:
"Trojan horses come in many shapes and sizes. While most computer users worry about the ones that can damage their files or harm their computers, other types of Trojan horses can sometimes have far more insidious, long-term consequences. The latest is Amazon.com's new search engine, A9.com."

Regard your good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed of - for credit is like fire; when once you have kindled it you may easily preserve it, but if you once extinguish it, you will find it an arduous task to rekindle it again. The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear. --Socrates
