Konami Slot Machines display subliminal message of Wining Jackpot

The CBC has found that 'winning jackpot symbols' are displayed for a fifth of a second, every 2 seconds: The time it takes for one spin. Konami says it's a 'software glitch'. Ontario pulled the machines. Is that why it feels like the jackpot's always going to be that next / last pull?I think subliminal messages are a great idea. Does anybody remember the movie "They Live" with Rowdy Roddy Piper? There is a huge potential market for those really cool glasses that let you see the truth.

Vista security overview: too little too late

Vista's Security is not all its cracked up to be. This article explains why.While I would never consider myself a Microsoft lover you have to admit that Vista IS better than XP. At least the 64bit version. If you have a 32 bit processor I would agree, stick with XP SP2 for now.As for shifting the blame to the user for insecure surfing habits this is correct. The computer does not infect itself. If a user does something stupid to infect their PC how is the OS going to stop that. Let me just fire up X-Windows as root on my trusty laptop and let's go surfing!

SuperNova Not - Storm Large lost in portland!

Portland Oregon - February 17, 2007 - Memorial Coliseum - SuperNova Consert

First, where is Storm Large? A big disapointment that we did not see her at the SuperNova concert in her home town. On second thought that show as of such poor quality that I would not have shown up either.

After watching the second "Rockstar" show "Rockstar SuperNova" I had high hopes for the concert Friday the 17th, 2007 at the Memorial Coliseum in Portland Oregon. Having gone to the extremely good Rockstar INXS concert we were excited for the show. Unfortunately Supernova is a SuperDUD. If you want 40 minutes of screaming this is the act for you.

The only saving grace for the show as when Magni and Delanna performed. They rocked and I would have wished that they were the headliners.
