Super-Glue: Best practice for countering key stroke loggers by ZDNet's Richard Stiennon -- This wonderful little gadget is for sale over at Thinkgeek. It is colored an innocuous IBM grey so no one will notice when you attach it to their keyboard. It fits between the back of the PC and the keyboard cable.

The nonsense about AdSense
Benjamin Cohen, the former teenaged dot.com millionaire, has run into a problem as he tries to make his next million: Google won't pay him for ads run on his website
Google AdSense lies at the heart of Google's advertising empire. AdSense ads are the funny little text boxes that are scattered across the internet, displaying links related to the content on a web page. For many sites, AdSense has become the sole source of income, with some small one man band publishing outfits claiming to make in excess of $100,000 through showing the adverts. AdSense also amounts to some 43 per cent of Google's total revenue.

There IS a problem with global warming... it stopped in 1998
For many years now, human-caused climate change has been viewed as a large and urgent problem. In truth, however, the biggest part of the problem is neither environmental nor scientific, but a self-created political fiasco. Consider the simple fact, drawn from the official temperature records of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, that for the years 1998-2005 global average temperature did not increase (there was actually a slight decrease, though not at a rate that differs significantly from zero).
Yes, you did read that right. And also, yes, this eight-year period of temperature stasis did coincide with society's continued power station and SUV-inspired pumping of yet more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Eva Longoria Plus sized cover girl
Attack of the 50-foot Desperate Housewife? Not exactly.
In honor of Maxim's 100th issue, which is on newsstands this week, the men's magazine has created a 75-by-110-foot vinyl mesh replica of its January 2005 cover image of Eva Longoria in the desert outside Las Vegas. Nine workers took more than 15 hours to build the cover, which is so big that satellites are able to photograph the image from space.

"Leave it to Maxim to do something so creative and so wild to celebrate their 100th issue," says Longoria, who topped Maxim's Hot 100 list last year. "I guess space is no longer the final frontier. I am flattered, to say the least, to be TV's Sexiest Earthling."

Adriana Lima Maxim Girl of the Day
Adriana Lima
Age: 24 Vitals: 5'10", 33–24–34 Hometown: Salvador, Brazil
Prima Lima: Two mysteries that may forever go unanswered are whether a second gunman was on the grassy knoll and just what in the name of Jesus H. Ipex is Victoria's secret? Look closely at the monthly catalog featuring Adriana and other barely concealed beauties, and maybe there will be a clue.
The final frontier: In a recent interview, the former Guess? model revealed that it's not just her body that is flawless—her womanhood is still untarnished as well. The only logical explanation is she has yet to cross paths with starlet-slayer Wilmer Valderrama.

30 Years of Apple Products
In a garage in Los Altos, California, in 1976, two young college dropouts and some friends assembled and soldered 500 motherboards by hand to be sold by a local hobbyist electronics shop. Thirty years later, Steve Jobs' and Steve Wozniak's Apple Computer has produced hundreds of computer models, and introduced to the world a string of groundbreaking products, from the first PDA to the iPod.
