I can’t believe that Comcast is doing something this smart and innovative. They’ve got a real problem with some users who are using BitTorrent excessively and slowing down the speeds for everyone. Slowing down those who overuse it during peak usage and working with BitTorrent to figure out how to optimize it for Comcast is…

So, do you think we should start a union? They work long hours, often to exhaustion. Many are paid by the piece — not garments, but blog posts. This is the digital-era sweatshop. You may know it by a different name: home. A growing work force of home-office laborers and entrepreneurs, armed with computers and…

I bet this might come as surprise if you think our military is hated and that Iraqis would be upset at someone who has said he’d stay as long as it takes. If they wanted the Americans out, wouldn’t they be praying for Obama? But perhaps the most remarkable change of all is in how…

Uh Oh! Looks like Microsoft is going to start strong-arming Yahoo into a deal: Computer software giant Microsoft has given Yahoo a three-week deadline to respond to its offer to buy out the internet company for $44.6bn (£22.3bn). Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer said his company would take its case directly to Yahoo’s shareholders if Yahoo’s…

They’re pretty much using the excuse that they didn’t intend for the US to see it. The Absolut vodka company apologized Saturday for an ad campaign depicting the southwestern U.S. as part of Mexico amid angry calls for a boycott by U.S. consumers. […] Absolut said the ad was designed for a Mexican audience and…

Let’s all admire his cunning and skill: Barack Obama did not hunt or fish as a child. He lives in a big city.…

It seems that Obama and McCain want to run a clean campaign with no ad hominem attacks but their supporters aren’t interested in doing that: Barack Obama’s campaign distanced itself Saturday from a liberal talk show host who called John McCain a “warmonger” while introducing the Illinois senator at a North Dakota campaign stop the…

OK, all you lefties who come here complaining about Fox News (and for the record I want it noted that I am not employed by Fox Broadcasting and that I don’t get my news from Fox News, I get it from the Internet exclusively because I can get more indepth reports), note who said that,…

One can only hope that he’s clearer in a lecture format than he is in book form. I felt like an idiot when I read Images of the Spirit and couldn’t understand it. I was blessed to have a Klinean professor who explained it to us.

This is great story but I kept wondering what took him so long to do it? I couldn’t see living life so long without being able to read. So much of our modern age is wrapped around that ability. And how empty my life would be if I couldn’t read the Bible, novels, theology and…
