Instant Handbrake by m0k Note: Only Mac OS X (if you have Windows, get a Mac) It is amazingly simple and foolproof. I think my parents could use this app to put convert a DVD to movies for their iPod or PSP (if they had either one...)

A video drawing a conclusion based on past celebrities.

Not sure what language this is, but apparently Bruce Lee is doing commercials for the BMW X3.

This statement by Rupert Murdoch has to be the most obvious statement I have heard all year. Of course the O.J. book and interview were ill-considered, what self-respecting man would publish and air O.J. discussing how he "would have" (actually did) commit the murders of his ex-wife Nicole and her friend Ron Goldman. In this sudden move, Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble also pulled the book off their shelves. I don't know about the book. But I was really looking forward to watching the interview, here is to hope that someone puts it on BitTorrent...

After a firestorm of criticism, News Corp. said Monday that it has canceled the O.J. Simpson book and television special "If I Did It." "I and senior management agree with the American public that this was an ill-considered project," said Rupert Murdoch, News Corp. chairman. "We are sorry for any pain that his has caused the families of Ron Goldman and Nicole Brown Simpson."

I am just posting this here in hopes that others find this via a Google search. Please post a comment if you are also experiencing this problem. EDIT May 30, 2007: http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportextremeupdate2007003.html Apple finally recognized that they had a problem with their airport extreme drivers on the new Intel machines, but the catch was that its a problem with 3rd-party routers using WPA or WPA2 (the only secure wifi protection). This finally explains why I couldn't properly connect my MBP to any wifi router that used WPA protection, but it connected fine if I manually connected the machines or used WEP protection. I just bought the new 15" Macbook Pro 2.16 w/Core 2 Duo around Halloween. I loved my old 12" Powerbook, but I wanted a more powerful machine with more screen real estate. I am enjoying this machine for the most part, but one thing that is a complete dealbreaker is this laptop's inability to maintain a wireless connection. I connect to my D-Link DI-524 rev.D router w/the newest 4.03 firmware successfully but after about 10mins of use the wireless just craps out. I don't have any problems with my HP NC6000 laptop connecting to the same router. I have also experienced this on a Linksys WRT54g v5 (i know this version is the crappy version wo/Linux support). I have tried everything on the forums. I think there may just be something wrong with the Draft-N card they put in this thing. UPDATE: I have managed to keep connected to the Linksys WRT54g by manually setting the IP address. Not sure why this does anything, but I did notice it took a long time to acquire an IP address automatically before. UPDATE AGAIN: Apple seems to have heard the complaints on messageboards and the blogosphere and released an update to solve the problems on my Macbook Pro's airport being worthless. http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/airportupdate2006002.html Another UPDATE (2-19-2007): Apparently Apple didn't think update was neccessary because they have pulled the update from Software Update and from Apple.com link above. You can still download it at VersionTracker: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/28282. Not sure why they pulled it, but it helped out with my problems. People were talking about this at MacFixIt:

MacFixIt reader John Crook writes: "On my new Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro (15”) I found that my Airport connection was intermittently “locking”. My laptop could not 'see' either the internet or my router – even though the menu bar showed full signal strength. A reboot was necessary to restore the network connection. "(It appears) that Airport Update 2006-002 has fixed this problem. [...] No problems since I applied the update. I was usually getting the problem at least once a day and most often after a wake from sleep. Due to the intermittent nature and inability to reproduce the problem it's hard to be certain, but I’d say it’s looking very likely that the problem has been fixed."

Sit T.M.X. Elmo down and hit one of his three "tickle" spots. There's one under his chin, one on his belly, and one on top of his foot. Yes, this Elmo wiggles just like he did 10 years ago, but that's just the start. Elmo slaps his belly, falls forward with his butt sticking out, stands back up again only to topple backwards, kicks his legs over his belly, and then stands right back up, all while laughing hysterically. Elmo gets more outrageous when you "tickle" him a second time, and the fun really starts with the third "tickle" session. Elmo's fancy moves include falling over on his side, shimmying on his back, and what seems to be everyone's favorite: lying flat on his belly slapping the floor next to him as if he can’t stop laughing. This Elmo has a serious case of the giggles. His trademark voice builds into a fit of histrionics, endless snickers that drown out everything but an unintelligible cackle until even Elmo admits he has had too much.
