MIB 3 News

22.02 William W

Will Smith and Josh Brolin Are Men in Black … Suits from MIB 3 Set Take a gander at your first look at Will Smith and Josh Brolin on the Bronx, New York set of “Men in Black 3″ yesterday. In the sequel, Smith’s suave, wisecracking MIB character Agent J goes back in time where he meets a young Agent K (Tommy Lee Jones’ character, now played by Josh Brolin as a younger man) and must save the world from an alien menace or some such. You know how this thing goes, it ain’t exactly brain surgery. Expect more Tomfoolery, lots of sight gags, and if the first two movies are any indication, shockingly shoddy CGI. The film also stars Alice Eve, Emma Thompson, Nicole Scherzinger, Rip Torn and Johnny Knoxville. Barry Sonnenfield, who directed the first two films in the series, returns behind the camera...

Windows 8

22.00 William W

Windows 8 M1 Build 7850 Leaks to the Web Windows 8 leak season is in full swing and today we’ve learned that a leak of an early Milestone 1 build of Windows 8 has been posted to a BetaArchive FTP site. So far, the build is only available to private members, but is said by many to be legitimate and will soon be available to the public through the wonderful, albeit sometimes shady, world of torrent sites. The build is listed as: 6.1.7850.0.winmain_win8m1.100922-1508_x86fre_client-enterprise_en-us.iso – 2.45 GB Windows 8 has already passed Milestone 2 and is said to be nearing M3 with a beta to come later this fall. While many sites confirm the authenticity of the build, I would not recommend any users rush out to download and install this one especially as your main OS. Keep in mind this...

Rosie Huntington-The new cast member of Transformers

21.56 William W

Apparently the folks at CinemaCon (formerly ShoWest) think so highly of Michael Bay’s latest eye candy Rosie Huntington-Whiteley that they’ve awarded the former Victoria’s Secret lingerie supermodel the coveted “Female Star of Tomorrow” award. Okay, so “coveted” is probably a bit of a stretch, especially when the winner of this year is a first-timer whose first movie hasn’t even come out yet. And from what I’ve seen, Huntington-Whiteley pretty much stands around gawking prettily as giant alien robots battle it out around her. Plus, she dresses way too respectable for someone who is supposed to be filling the “sexy eye candy” role formerly filled out oh-so-nicely by the fired Megan Fox. What’s up with the power suits, Rosie? In case you were wondering, Chris Hemsworth won the male equivalent...

Harry Potter 2 Interview

21.50 William W

Some new footage from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 was shown at Cinema Con, and afterwards Potter producer David Heyman sat down with Cinema Blend to talk about what from the novels is going to be included in the film, and what will be changed. Their conversation included some pretty specific spoilers about the end of the film, but presumably most people have already read the books; so giving away story details isn’t as big of a deal as it might be normally. If you’re one of the people who haven’t read the books, and who would like to see Deathly Hallows: Part 2 without any idea of what it has in store, then you should probably not read this article. Or, you know, do it anyways and then bitch about how stuff was given away in the comments section. Either way is good. Spoilers...

Rio

21.44 William W

Blue Sky Studios has been a reliable producer of family content for 20th Century Fox, but I can't say I love their movies the way I love, yes, Pixar. And while that may seem an unfair comparison to make, they're certainly all playing in the same sandbox, and they're competing for the same family dollars. Every studio wants to have a company they can turn to for this story of movie, and it's an important part of the business model for a modern movie studio. With Blue Sky, they've built their brand on the back of their very successful "Ice Age" series, and having one go-to franchise that does almost unbelievable business each time out allows them to try different things. I think "Robots" has some major story problems, but I like the way they designed that world. In adapting "Horton Hears...

Death

Struggling Butterfly

21.32 William W

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could, and it could go no further. So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and...

The Carpenter

21.26 William W

Building Your House An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house-building business to live a more leisurely life with his wife and enjoy his extended family. He would miss the paycheck each week, but he wanted to retire. They could get by. The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but over time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end a dedicated career. When the carpenter finished his work, his employer came to inspect the house. Then he handed the front-door key to the carpenter and said, “This is your house… my gift to...

PS 3 - Review

21.24 William W

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- With its Cell processor engine, Blu-Ray DVD drive and beefy hard drive, the PlayStation 3 is unquestionably a powerhouse of a video game system. And forget about Elmo, this is the item that consumers will be sparring over as the holidays get closer. But cut through the hype, and the desire for the newest, flashiest gadget and the product is not as compelling as it might seem. The PS3, for all its power, feels incomplete at launch. And that could leave some consumers, who have shelled out $500 or $600 for the system, depending on the configuration they choose, feeling put out. "Resistance: Fall of Man" is among the most visually spectacular of the PS3's launch titles. Want more video game news and commentary? Click the orc. The potential for greatness is certainly...

The Vision of a Prayer

21.20 William W

The Vision of a Prayer A Christian monk earnestly prayed that a vision of Jesus Christ might be revealed to him. After praying for many hours, the monk heard a voice telling him the visionwould occur the next morning at daybreak. Before the first rays of dawn appeared the following morning, the monk was on his knees at the altar. A fierce storm was brewing, but the monk paid it no heed. He watched and prayed and waited for the vision. As the storm broke in great fury, a soft knock came at the door. Interrupted in his devotions, the monk turned away from the altar to open the door. He knew some poor wayfarer was seeking shelter from the raging storm. As he turned toward the door, he caught a glimpse of the vision for which he had prayed. Torn between his desire to stay and experience the vision—one...

Trees that Wood

22.27 William W

Trees That Wood by: Author Unknown, Source Unknown Printer Friendly Version Comment on Article Feedback to Author Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said, "Someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. I could be decorated with intricate carving and everyone would see the beauty." Then the second tree said, "Someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take kings and queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my hull." Finally the third tree said, "I want to grow to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will see me on top of the hill and look up to my branches, and...

DotA 2

22.13 William W

“What is Dota 2?” Dota began as a user-made modification for Warcraft 3 and has grown into one of the most played online games in the world. Following in the tradition of Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat, Team Fortress, Portal, and Alien Swarm, Dota 2 is the result of Valve hiring the community developers who built the mod and giving them the chance to finally build a full product out of their idea with the help of a professional team of developers and artists at Valve. As for the gameplay, it’s a little hard to describe. The camera is set in the traditional RTS perspective, but it wouldn’t be fair to call Dota an RTS. And while each hero starts at level 1, and many times hits the level cap of 25, it wouldn’t be fair to call it an RPG. Lots of people have tried to assign various genre names...

Opte Project

Visualization from the Opte Project of the various routes through a portion of the Internet The Opte Project is a project started by Barrett Lyon that seeks to make an accurate representation of the extent of the Internet using visual graphics. Opte (pronounced op-tee) originated from the Latin word Opti, meaning Optical. The name originated from the project creator Barrett Lyon and the fluid nature of the name opte.org made it stick. The project was started in October 2003 in an effort to provide a useful Internet map with open source code. Lyon believes that the network mapping can help teach students more about the Internet. It can also be used to visualize sites of disasters in the world, citing the significant destruction of Internet capabilities after a disaster. Additionally it...

Fibre Optic Will be Ready to be Used by 2012 in Indonesia

21.43 William W

The construction of a 50,000 kilometer fiber optic cable that will crisscross the entire archipelago, delivering better and cheaper data and voice services, should be finished by 2012, Minister of Communications and Information Technology Tifatul Sembiring said on Wednesday. So far 40,000 km of the cable, stretching across Java, Sumatra and Kalimantan, has been built, Tifatul said. The government has tendered the project out to a number of telecommunications companies that are building sections and will retain ownership of their respective parts of the cable. “We only have to build the remaining 10,000 km to connect the nation,” he said. The cost of building the rest of the system, mainly in eastern Indonesia, would be about Rp 5.3 trillion ($590 million), Tifatul said. The fiber...

The World's First Laptop

21.39 William W

As the personal computer became feasible in the early 1970s, the idea of a portable personal computer followed. A "personal, portable information manipulator" was imagined by Alan Kay at Xerox PARC in 1968, and described in his 1972 paper as the "Dynabook". The IBM SCAMP project (Special Computer APL Machine Portable), was demonstrated in 1973. This prototype was based on the PALM processor (Put All Logic In Microcode). The IBM 5100, the first commercially available portable computer, appeared in September 1975, and was based on the SCAMP prototype. As 8-bit CPU machines became widely accepted, the number of portables increased rapidly. The Osborne 1, released in 1981, used the Zilog Z80 and weighed 23.6 pounds (10.7 kg). It had no battery, a 5 in (13 cm) CRT screen, and dual 5.25 in (13.3...

The computer will be used by the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) and will be ten times faster than today's most powerful system. Two systems will be built for the super-computer by IBM. The first is Sequoia, a 20 petaFLOP/s (quadrillion floating operations per second) system based on future BlueGene technology. This will be delivered starting in 2011 and deployed in 2012. The second is an initial delivery system called Dawn, a 500 teraFLOP/s (trillion floating operations per second) BlueGene/P system, being delivered in the first quarter of 2009.

Samsung has announced their new 9 series range of laptops in CES 2011 in LAS VEGAS. This laptop is synonymously called as the MacBook Air wannabe. But the stunning Samsung 9 laptop looking to give the wafer thin MacBook Air a run for its money. With the duralumin machine barely troubling the scales at 2.89 pounds and the machine measuring just 0.68 inches thick, it’s matching the Apple MacBook Air in all aspect of the shape, although the Samsung packs a more ports and power, and comes with a backlit keyboard.

Surreptitious Sircam Sircam appeared in July 2001 on PCs running Windows 95, 98, and Me. The worm appeared in e-mail in-boxes with an attachment; the body of the message was in Spanish or English.

If you launched the attachment, Sircam installed itself on the infected computer, then grabbed random documents and sent them out to e-mail...
