Genesis Mission -
Search For Origins

NASA's Genesis mission will send a spacecraft to collect pieces of the sun, called solar wind, that may contain the answers. After an August 2001 launch, the Genesis spacecraft will journey a million miles sunward, unfold its collectors, and "sunbathe" for nearly three years before returning to Earth with its precious cargo. Scientists will study the solar wind samples for years to come.

SoloTrek Exo-Skeletor Flying Vehicle by Millennium Jet Inc.

Imagine an innovative new transportation device, representing a change as significant as the motor car's invention 100 years ago.

DShield. - Distributed Intrusion Detection System

DShield.org is an attempt to collect data about cracker activity from all over the internet. This data will be cataloged and summarized. It can be used to discover trends in activity and prepare better firewall rules.

Right now, the system is tailored to simple packet filters. As firewall systems that produce easy to parse packet filter logs are now available for most operating systems, this data can be submitted and used without much effort.

More complex patterns, such as are used by application level firewalls may be handled in the future.

Computing.Net - About

By using a forum based message system Computing.Net allows its users to ask, in essence, hundreds of technical support experts about their problem without having to register in any way. A forum system allows a much more tight knit community than does a newsgroup so answers to questions are much clearer and easier to find through Computing.Net's forum when compared to newsgroup technical support discussions.
