PSP controlled car
Pierce Bronson and Salma Hayek’s movie "After the sunset" had a full size car controlled by a remote. Was it fiction or can it really be done? Well look no further as this car is controlled by Playstation Portable. These geeks hacked the game console, pimped a Honda civic and made it controllable through PSP. Not just that the car features looks of NFS: Underground, 24 LCD Screens and a price tag of $250,000.

Americans getting a limited view of war
Managing editor of Middle East Broadcasters Journal, Habib Battah wrote an article explaining that Americans (and other countries of the world, dependent upon same media) are not shown the true face of the current war in Lebanon.
Absent in the reporting [of NBC] was any reference to Hezbollah’s role in defeating the 22-year Israeli occupation of the country and its support among up to a million Lebanese. Of course, failing to report such details contributes to the view that Hezbollah acts as merely a renegade organisation rather than a movement that encompasses roughly a quarter of the country’s population.
A US citizen waiting for evacuation returned home after long wait. "They just didn’t care," she said, drawing a contrast with television pictures of a smiling US ambassador escorting evacuees on to helicopters and while others were ferried away on chartered ships.

IE7 vs Firefox 2
Once it was netscape, and there was peace. Then came internet explorer and no one cared. Then internet explorer became one with windows, and then the struggle started. The old king was dead and now IE ruled the planet, there was once more peace. Then came the second coming of old mozilla engine as FireFox, and now the world existed with two kings… those who favored simplicity joined IE, those who favoured open source, power and community tools joined FireFox. And there was balance… not peace.
But whatever balance was there, the new versions of both browsers aim to disturb it. Firefox and IE both have released new betas featuring a peak into new generation of browsers with anti-phising, built-in RSS, downloads, security tools and much much more. So, who will be the winner. Currently IE seems a strong returner through standardization and integration with windows formats, but mozilla is supported by a strong coding community, whatever is in IE can be emulated in it in two days… There is a detailed analysis of all new features, and also of what hasn’t changed in these Browsers.

"Between God, and us there is the United States." … "The security of Israeli citizens is an important goal, which probably raises the [civilian casualty] tolerance level of Israeli society." …. "I advocate attacking Syria – to some extent we are wasting ammunition in Lebanon." … "Iran is too distant and so I think we are more likely to leave the Iranians to the Americans – for now"
